The Presbyterian synod continued its in
tcrestlng session yesterday with a marked
incrcuso in attendance. The moderator ,
Kov. F. Johnson , of St. Paul , presided at the
sessions with ability.
Ono of the features of yesterday's proceed
Ings was the report from the two denomina
tional colleges in the state , these at Hasting :
and Bollovtio. Tlio report of Hustings' col
Ibgc was especially flattering and cheering ,
hawing a wide awake and energetic faculty
and a constant increase in the attendance
dud support of the school. The report fron
liollovuo college , while not showing th
'rapid advance and progress of the Hustings
college , was quito satisfactory and showed
increased Interest being tukcn in the institu
tion. At 10 o'clock yesterday Dr. Cooper , o
St. Louis , addressed the synod on the qucs
tion of the relief fund for aged ministers
The address was listened to with the grt-utesi
of attention and was eloquent and masterly
In the afternoon the rush of business was to
close up matters as nearly us iiruutical prio
to final adjournment that takes place Mou
day morning.
By fur the most animated discussion yc'
held during the session has been upon the
temperance resolutions as presented by that
committee. The discussion was over the
Slfth resolution that read as follows :
Wo believe the licensing of saloons by the
tate not only encourages the crimes com-
mitU'd by the saloons but it opens up tlio
way by which they are enabled to sweep like
the tornado over our fair land , filling our
alms houses and penitentiaries with their
victims.
This resolution was warmly opposed by
members of the synod because It was prao-
tlcally u declaration in favor of abolishing
the present license system while no other or
better relief was offered. Members of the
synod , while stating their desire for total
and absolute prohibition , did not believe that
the body should go on record as in favor of
free whisky , rather than no license at all.
It took several hours to dispose of the ques
tion , and the final disposition while condemn
ing the license system of the state as u full-
uro in suppressing the tradio , did not make a
direct declaration that therefore the license
should bo abolished before other and better
methods wore put iu force.
The Woman's Mission society has
hold largely attended meetings dur
ing the synod and transacted u largo
amount of wo" , in their field.
The assign' ts for to-day iu the different
pu'iiits In tin r were as follows : At St.
Paul's M. E. w.urch , Rev. Gco. M. Wilson
morning and Rev. F. S. Blaney evening ; at

work and keeps the proposition in the dark.
It is very evident that from what can bo
learned of the proposed concessions that they
do not meet public approval entirely. The
] HXplo have been led to expect that the mi-
5 > rcmo court was to pass upon the validity of
the law under which the board of trans | > orta-
tiou works. The question of u revision of
Lincoln rates is to bo taken up the ilrst of
the week at the general meeting of managers
of western roads In Chicago. President
Raymond and Secretary John E. Utt , of the
Lincoln freight bureau , with Eli Plummer , of
the firm of Plummor , Perry & Co. , will rep
resent Lincoln wholesale interests ut the
Chicago meeting.
TO TEST TUB LAW.
The registration law for voters , which was
generally understood to hold good for Lin
coln as well as Omaha , is not regarded with
favor by the taxpayers , and those who dis-
llko so much machinery , and it is believed by
many that it is nn unnecessary precaution
for a city the sizeof Lincoln. It has been
agreed that the supreme court will bo asked
to pass upon the law , und the papers are pre
pared ready for presentation on the assemb
ling of the court Monday in the hopes that a
hearing and decision may bo readied not
later than Tuesday or Wednesday.

A Good Demand For Money Re

Mure Than Usual Activity Kliown in
tlic New York Stock Market
Btookn ul * Grain.iradually
In the Conmit-rclul World.
Oct. 15. [ SiK-oiiJ Telegram to
the BKI : . ] Bankers report a good demand
for moiioy , with u tendency to a little close
ness an thu packing season approaches und
colder weather appears. The supply of loan
able funds , however , is ample to meet oil
legitimate requirements , but bankers us u
rule arc imrsuiug a very conservutivo und
safe policy and borrowers arc required to
place undoubted security for jjll sums. The
htriugcncy In the eastern markets may bo ac
cepted as a warning to western bankers and
they propose to have their funds well under
control should any unforeseen , though not
anticipated , disturbing elements bo presented
in llmincial affairs. Hather wide margins
are required , which in some cases occasioned
home grumbling , but borrowers were gener
ally sufllciently anxious to obtain bank favors
that they readily compiled with all the re
quirements demanded. Among speculators
iu grain and provisions the demand for loans
was light and smaller than for some tlmo
past. Gniin receivers were borrowers tea
a certain extent , and considerable
money was followed to the grain sec
tions of the west and northwest.
Shippers asked for few favors and generally
presented shoit date paper. Lumberdealur-i
are not asking for many favors , as their
trade is comparatively quiot. Manufacturers
present very little paper for discount.
Wholesale merchants aio largo borrowers in
n few cases in the w.iy of extension of paper ,
owing to rather slow collections in some nee-
tions. ItatfB of aulerest are steady and un
changed , though very Hi m at (1 ( to 7 per cent.
Very little paper , is discounted under 7 per
cent. Collections are reported good in some
quarters , nuy continues clo o in the
eastern linanuial centers , especially in Hoa-
ton , New Vo'rk 'and Philadelphia , and ex
treme rates df Interest are demanded , ex
cepting for loajis , on gilt-edged securities.
Forolgu markets show a little more strength ,
with interest rates a tritlo hlpber. The How
of gold to this country continues and the
specie in governmental' banks exhibits a
further material decreaso. This will pro

unsettled and prices ruled with considerable
irregularity and averaged decideply lower.
There was moro inclination to realize than
for several weeks past , and the market was
greatly depressed. The bulls were forced to
jilneo their property on the market at severe
losses , and the boars assisted the weakness
by increasing their offerings , The earnings
of leading lines cut no flguro In the course of
prices. For the time being it apjK-ared to bo
only a question of losses , and all the leading
properties shared in the general decline. To
ward the close the downward tendency in
prices was checked , tcmirararily at least , nml
in most cases slight rallies were pained. Wall
street operators were liberal traders , espec
ially in lound lota , Chicago speculators
leaned to the bear side of the market uud
traded with considerable freedom. Foreign

was the leading cause of the
depression. Sales on the Now Yprk ex
change for the week aggregated ii,7:3t,000 : ;
shares. Spt-eulativo trading was on a lim
ited scale during the week and the dullness
extended to all the leading markets. Local
operators apparently manifested little inter
est in provisions , and orders from outside
parties were lighter than usual. What is
true of the condition of the Chicago market
applies with equal force to the speculative
situation in other markets. With the col
lapse of the "squeezers" In coffee , cotton and
wheat in Chicago nnd San Francisco , and
two quito sharp declines in stocks and se
curities , all within the past six months , spec
ulation has been deadened to some extent ,
and a return to activity oitly can be expected
when operators have mom conlldcnce. The
markets uro devoid of features tending to
unusual sudden changes. The return of
active speculation will doubtless bo gradual
and moro permanent. With proper safe
guards thrown around the markets to pro
tect the transaction of legitimate operators ,
all the surroundings of g rain and provision
trades are not discouraging to speculation.
The movement of property to and from lead-
ingmarkcts is quito brisk. Crop yields
are to u great extent approximately settled ,
both in this country and Europe , und the
qualities thereof determined so that calcula
tions can bo made for their ultimate disposal.
The restriction to fair business now is a
little stringency in ilnancial utTairs , which
tends to a conservative course in all branches
of trade. Prices of cereals uro not regarded
exorbitant , taking into consideration all the
surrounding of trade , but there is apparently
u lack of energy or courage among operators
to trade to any extent on either side of the
market. Prices during the week have been
a little more favorable to the buying interest.
Advices from defending markets , both do
mestic and foieign , have not been discour
aging , in fact , rather more favorable tote
to sellers. The export movement ,
while not as largo as during
pievious weeks , is well maintained
und distributes to consuming districts ii this
country has been moderately free. Stocks
of grain are gradually enlarging , which is to
bo expected nt this season of the year , but
not in proportion to the increase of past
seasons. Supplies of provisions are com
paratively light , but the prospectsof un early
opening of the winter packing season checks
business to some extent. Packing in the
nest now shows a slight increase as com
pared with the returns of one year ago , n
result not generally anticipated by the trade.

Twenty Dwellings , a Saw Mill nml
Much liinnlxir Destroyed.
O'ixt is'NATi.Oct , 15. Fire broke out shortly
after noon to-day in Rancs1 saw mill in the
eastern end of the city. The first alarm was
followed quickly by others until the entire
flro department had been called to the scene ,
A strong gale was blowing from the river in
the direction of the hills , and it was but a
few minutes until everything between East
ern avenue and the river between Bayou and
Lumber streets and an area of about flvo
acres filled with lumber yards , dwellings and
stables , was in Humes. The wind pushed the
flames towards the houses on the hillside and
scores of them were on lire ut times , but the
citizens on the house tops fought the flames
out. Tlio firebrands leaped clear over the
roofs nnd Ignited the grass on the hillside.
Fortunately the wind soon changed nnd aided
the firemen , who were greatly embarrassed
by the scarcity of water. About twenty
dwellings and tenements were destroyed , besides -
sides the saw mill and much lumber. The
losses , as near as cau bo estimated , will ag
gregate 5150,000 , with an insurance of less
than one-third.

LKAHVIU.E , Colo. , Oct. 15. [ Special Tele
gram to the BUB. ] The city has boon in
great excitement all day over a big run on
the Carbonate bank , one of the largest in the
city. Mr. Mitchell , the cashier , was in Den
ver yesterday and sent up a largo amount of
money which saved the bunk from having to
temporarily close its doors. The run was
caused by one William Fleotcher who by
some is supposed to be insane and who is an
enemy of the concern. For several days past
he has been going among the thousands of
miners iu camp telling them the bank was In
solvent nnd would close In a few days. The
report spread like wildfire und early this
morning a turbulent crowd of depositors
gathered in a surging muss around the doors
and when they were opened the anticipated
run began und continued without diminution
until - p. m. , when there was not a depositor
in front of the paying teller's window. The
demands came entirely from miners and
working men holding cectiflcatcs of deposit -
posit und when these were pacified
the run collapsed. Not a single merchant or
business man drew out his funds und nearly
all of them displayed confidence in the bank
by depositing largo amounts. The deposits
from this class aggregated a larger amount
than was ever before received in n single day.
The management displayed a nlaycnnl early
in the day announcing that the bank would
remain open until 5 o'clock to meet demands ,
which had thd effect of reassuring many de
positors. An ofllgy of William Fletcher , the
man who started the false reports about the
bank , was hoisted upon a tar barrel in the
street appropriately Inscribed nnd created in-
llnito amusement. Thcro was no occasion
whatever for the nm and the whole thing
grew out of the insane malice of the man
Fletcher. Lynching and tar and feathers are
freely discussed , and if FloU'her remains hero
ho may bo roughly used. The bank will open
Monday morning stronger , if possible , than
before the run. The resources of the bank ,
according to its statement published October
11 , are $1,040,522.05.

BII.LI.NOS , Mont. , Oct. 15. [ Special Tele
gram to the UF.E. ] The Crows are seemingly
quiet on the reservation. Ten Assinaboino
warriors well mounted nnd armed arrived at
Crow agency yesterday. Their object in this
visit is not known as they arc deadly ene
mies. Their influence for evil is feared.
Special Agent Armstrong arrived to-day.
The agency is still guarded by trooj > s. An
Indian runner , who arrived in the Yellow
stone valley to-day , reported that a band of
Crow and other Indians were holding a big
war dance on the south side of the rcscrvu
tlon in Wyoming nnd were killing rangers' '
cattle. Armstrong's action is anxiously
awaited by settlers in this section. General
Howard , now making Investigations ofllclally
at the Crow agency , says that unless ordered
otherwise by to-morrow an attempt to arrest
the insubordinates will bo made and blood
shed will follow. Sword bearer , ut the head
of 200 braves , is camped within gunshot ol
the agency awaiting developments. Sword-
bearer Is gaining strength daily , nnd much
uneasiness is felt by the Bottlers. The In
dians at the agency uro sullen and uncom
municative.

day Mrs. IJciison came from Maryvlllo and
going directly to the hut threw herself from
the bank into the river. She was rescued by
some men and taken to the hut and locked in
n room. An hour or two later she called her
son William , one of a pair of twins , thirteen
years old , to her and knocking out n pane of
glass from the window , told him she wanted
to shako hands. The boy consented , und
grabbing him tightly around the wrist she
wrenched his arm trying to pull him into the
window and declaring she would kill him.
The boy's cries forhelpbroughtthootherchil
dren to his assistance and ho was liberated.
The woman was sent back to Muryvlllo to
day. She has only been out of the asylum a
few months.
DON'T WANT A CUT.
The Secret of Vice l rcHl < lciit I'otter'a
Visits to St. Paul.
ST. PADI , , Minn. , Oct. 15. [ Special Tele
gram to the BKK. ] Thomas Potter , vice
president of the Union Pacitlc , and J. A.
Munroo , general freight agent of the same
road , were hero to-day und hold u uonforonoo
with J. J. Hill , president of the Manitoba ,
relative to the expected cut of rates by the
latter to Montana jmiiits. This is Mr. Potter's
second visit to St. Paul within two weeks on
the same errand. Mr. Potter's errand is to
pcrsuado Mr. Hill not to put in the low rates
that it has como to bo generally understood
lie will put in to western Montana polnta ,
Helena being the focus of the territory , ThoM
M an i tuba's ruto of $ ' - ! per 100 | > ounds to Fort
Hcnton on merchandise , ilrst class , is ono-
third loss than the Northern Puuillu's rate to
parallel points , nnd when this difference
roaches Helena and the whole territory of the
Union Pacific southward it consequently
will disturb all its competitors. It is under
stood that the Manitoba ofllciuls agreed to
consider the matter further. All the trans
continental lines are interested in the ques
tion , but as the Union Pacific is the nearest
it is loft to Mr. Potter to try and llx things
up , the Northern Pacific , of course , lending
him all the aid iwssiblo. The policy of the
Manitoba in connection with the other road *
has been little known until the present season -
son , for the reason that it had things its own
way heretofore , having had no competition
except the Northern Pacific , and not effect
ing that for any considerable proportion of
its own lino. The advent of any extension of
the Manitoba into now territory has been the
occasion for rates adopted on the consulta
tion of nobody except the Manitoba manage
ment. Now tlio Manitoba extension bids fair
to demoralize rates in by far tlio largest sec
tion of the country with which the Manitoba
has ever had to deal. It is said by freight
men that when the Manitoba realizes what
will happen the low rates will not bo adopted ,
