drag-net today enmeshed nearly ovcry west

last week the Brand Jury Is In possession ol
figure : * showing dally manipulations of grain
rules extending over n period of three
months , These flb'uresvcro originally coin-
piled hy II. R Datisnian of the Chlcasro board
of trade. They prove absolutely , from tha
liuylnp and selling prices ot the dally ship-
incuts of grain , that Uirilt rates could not
Imvo hecn paid. This giMln cnmo over everyone
ono of the Chicago Hues , with possibly one
exception. Yesterday und today the grand
jury was inquiring Into this manipulation.
A list of the witnesses subpoenaed Is a list ol
the freight traffic officials -of west hound
Chicago roads. Railroad men are convinced
that n number of Indictments will ho found
nt the end of the Investigation. All the evi
dence Is In.
In regard to the Panhandle and Illinois
Btcel company's coke manipulations , the opin
ion is divided as to whether an Indictment
will hold against the steel company In view
of the fact that it sent u check for 817,000 ,
the full union tit of the manipulation , to- the
Panhandle after the deal was exposed by
Secretary Howcr oE the Central traffic in-

Northwestern lines had another love feu st
today. Prompt action was necessary in view
of Chairman Flnloy's ' intention to authorize
'reduced rules unless the passenger situation
was cleared up by tomorrow. Said General
Traffic Manager Buscnbark of the Chicago ,
iiSt. Paul & Kansas City road , after tlio
bncotiiiff :
, "AVo hnvo still out a number of tickets -we
{ issued to counterbalance the effect of con-
Vtniets by other lines with steamship agents.
Jt was unanimously uprcod that the loss
thus occasioned would bo a mere bagatelle to
that occasioned by a general reduction of
rates. There was not a particle of objection
to maintaining present rates , nil the lines
taking strong ground In that direction. "
It was decided to appoint u committee con-
filstiiig of Chairman i-'inley , Vice President
Jlipluy of the St. Paul , Vice President Now-
jnan of the Northwestern , and General
Freight and Passonccr .Agent of the Burling

jiurs Inasmuch as the railroads exact demur
rage fur the failure of consignees to remove
freight within forty-eight hours after its

executive committee of the association with
instructions to submit it to the proper con-

Loxnox , Nov. 1' ) . [ Special cablegram to
Tim lice. ] Herbert Ward writes to the
Times as follows :
"With ovcry desire to be loyal to Mr , Stan
ley , it Is impossible for mo longer to remain
silent. Mr. Stanley has raised all the side
issues of the Jameson and Uarttelot stories
nnd other matters in order to evade the main
controversy. Ho may or may not bo a scrupu
lous inan , but ho la undoubtedly a bold nml
far-seeing ono. It would appear , therefore ,
that in chanting tno rear guiird with irresolu
tion and disregard of instructions ho feureil
he might one day have to answer a charge
for which lie himself was responsible , so lit
collected all the tittle-tattle of talo-bearoM
and attacked his subordinates. "
After stating that Stanley's column was nol
above reproach and that ho himself had
burled dead men that Stanley had left hi
tlio road , Ward n k.- why Stanley loft Inex
perienced oftlcei-a In cliargo of the rear ,
knowing that they could only carry out his
orders nnd drive load-bearers with the great
est severity. Why had ho appointed Ilarttc-
lot , whom ho disliked as much ns Barttelol
disliked him , and whom ho know was unsuit
able for tlio work , to a position of momentous
responsibility at the supreme crisis of the ex *
pcditloniVhatmustbothoiightof Stanley
turning back on Yninbuyn. assuring liarlto-
lot ho had made a wise choice and selecting
him to guard the in terests of the expedition
uuring his absence )
Ward declares that with all his acknowl
edged faults , Major Barttclot , with splen
did loyalty to tlio best traditions of his
service , held sacred every instruction
of Stanley to the last. In the face of starva
tion ho refused to open the stores Stanley had
warned hint were essential to the success of
the expedition. Yet Stanley accused him
( the major ) of disloyalty.
Says Air. Ward ; "Thero was no reason to
refuse us food and medicine but his stolid
sense of discipline. To have taken the law
in our own hands would assuredly have led
to bloodshed. Stanley must take a portion
of the blame. Uy his example on the march
up bo Incited among the imjinbers of his staff
a feeling of indifference to human suffering
and among the load-bearers a fatalistic ac
ceptance of their lot us more beasts of bur
den ; by appointing Harttclot under the cir
cumstances ho dcllberatelv risked disaster ,
to use no stronger word ; by vague Institu
tions ho placed Uarttelot In a position of be-
wildcring alternatives : by an alleged agree
ment with Tippoo Tib ho put Durttolot more
or less at the Arab's mercy and left hlir
abandoned ; by publishing the affidavits of o
negro valet ho demerits dead men. Ho can
answer for himself whether ho should not
beursomcot the responsibility for the disas
ters which befell the rear guard. "

Court nt Clomiicl Defend
ant .Interviewed.
Loxnox , Nov. 10. [ Special Cablegram to
TUB Unn. ] Balfour , in n speech ntQrlmby ,
declared that this tour of Ireland had no po
litical object , but was made merely In quest
of Information. Although ho had been nt-
tacked by the Irish party and press , ho had
no reason to complain of his reception , but
ovcry reason to feel gratified. Ho had not
the bad taste to obtrude his political opinions
on the people , and they were equally cour
teous. The priests talked llko rational men
of the people's trouble. Ho did not attempt
to bribe them , nor did hoaslt them to give up
their conscientious opinions. Ho was sure
tlioy would never accept such a bribe. They
met him with the courtcsv , kindness and
business spirit natural to them. Their man
ner was far different from that of the IJublln
politicians , whoso shrieks of fury when
tlioy heard that he was making a tour In Ire-
hind were amusing , but did not represent
Irish opinion.
Ills tour loft the Impression on his mind
that the districts visited were not congested
In the scnso of bclnp crowded , but the people
appeared to bo unable to draw from their
holdings a sufficient livelihood. It was not
the wearing ana incessant toll for a
wretched pittance , such as was seen In the
Industrial centers of England and America ,
yet they were also so near the brink of want
that n serious failure of the potato crop
might make Imperial assistance necessarv.
If the peasant's ' condition was to bo bettered ,
ho must bo made a better farmer and a better
fisherman.
There wore two distinct problems to bo
faced the problem of the present winter and
the problem of the futuro. Ho should have
much to say on this question in another
place. Ho would observe in tlio meniitimo
that It would be of little use to provide for
immediate distress unless they had In view
the permanent amelioration of the condition
of the distressed. Nothing- would bo easier
than to squander public money to remedy
the ovll , because ho was sure the chancellor
of the exchequer would not grudge the
money. 15ut , though money was essential ,
ho did not regard It as the greatest necessity.
Ho was firmly convinced that something
more was required than money and relief
works. It was necessary to change the habits
of the people. Such a change he believed to
be possible , but it would necessarily bo slow.
Ho had studied the problem both'ln regard
to Ireland and in regard to the wr-st of Scot
land , and ho did not vet despair of n solution.
If the people of the thrco kingdoms would co
operate , if those concerned could but see
wherein their salvation consisted , the prob
lem would slowly but surety bo solved.

gers of tlio World's fnlr hold Its first session
today. I'rcsldontPalmcrof thouatlotml com
mittee called the ladles toonlcriind distributed
their commissions , 3n Ills address to the In *
dies President t'nlinor said s
"Ladles Kccognlzod by the congress of the
United States us nu Integral part of the commission -
mission , 1 shall not address you In tbo ordina
ry fanfaronade which custom has hitherto
sanctioned \vhoro nothing has been conceded
to women save a right to promote philanthro

In the history of our government Unit woman
has been fully recognized In the ministration
of n great piiblletrustllko this , mid the notion
of congress In passing the bill with thh fea
ture has met the general approval of our pee
ple. " [ Applause. ] The president then went
on to describe tbo duties of the board us pro
scribed In tin ? net of congress.
At the conclusion of PresWcntl'nlmcr's ad
dress the roll wus culled mid temporary of
ficers worn elected. Mrs. Will
iam II. Flltoii of Ciirtcrvllle , ( la. ,
was elected temporary chairman ,
iiltnoiigh slio encountered a slight opposition
from those who thought that Miss Phmbo
Cousins of Mlsfotirl or Mrs , Isabella Hrcchcr
Hooker of New York were entitled to the
distinction. Miss Cora Payne of Kentucky
was unanimously chosen temporary secre
tary.
President Palmer relinquished his position
us chnlrinnn und Introduced Mrs. Felton in a
very happy way. Mrs. Felton , In the course
of a very brief address , humorously , though
not without seine genuine feeling , 'remarked
that they were there as "tin oflldal body
clothed with somoauthority , " but they would
do what was before them dutifully , cheer
fully and energetically. A vote of thanks
was extended to President Palmer before ho
retired from control of affairs. Homo amuse
ment wis caused by a vote taken on the
propriety of permitting President Palmer to
remain with the board , now that his active
relation to it hud coated. Ily slightly favor
ing voices the great man was tolerated.
A resolution was adopted to appoint a com
mittee of el'lit [ to select a president , n secre
tary ami four vice presidents. It was pro
vided In the resolution that the members of
this committee to at tend to the appointment
of ofllcers should bo equally divided In
political faith. This provision oxeited the
hostility of n minority of the Indies mid upon
a later vote the offensive clause was climated.
It was very distressing , after an hour's \vorK ,
to lind that all the previous labor had been In
vain : yet so It was. Ily a strong vote all the
previous uctlou touching the appointment of
committees was annulled. Tin ) board then
listened to a proposition to appoint seven
ladles to attend to the duties cut out for the
committee of cisrht who died before they
were bom. To this Mrs. John A. Logan of
fered an amendment which , while diminish
ing the number of the committee , inndo it
obligatory on the committee to talk over mat
ters with the executive board of
national commissioners and ascertain from
that august body what the ladles
were exported to do and how to do it. Two
more mot ions were offered which set Presi
dent Palmer to guessing means of escape
irom the difficulties presented. Uiglit event
ually broke from the seemingly Impenetrable
darkness when Miss Francis Ulckson moved
for the "eleetioti" of a committee of ten to
look after matters of permanent organization
and report to the board in the morning1.
Someone then moved to adjourn , nnd so eager
were the ladies to rid themselves of further
work that they p.issed the motion but forgot
to elect the commit tee. It was five minutes
before the error was discovered , and then it
was too late for rectification.
The CnitgrcBHliinul Committee.
CHICAGO , Nov. H ) . The congressional com
mittee which had boon investigating the
progress of the work has concluded Its hear
ings and adjourned. OHO of the members of
the committee said to a reporter : *
"The indications are there will bo a gen
eral settling down and agreeing of nil in
terests in a day or two. The congressional
committee substantially endorses the plan of
locating the main exhibit tit Jackson park ,
with one or two buildings on the lake front. "
Today's session of the commission was en
livened by .11 discussion over the resolution
adopted by the executive committee to which
the foreign affairs committee objected.
Tbo report of the foreign affairs committee
was then rc.id and laid over. The committee
on buildings and grounds made n report re
viewing the site entanglement and recom
mending that tlio mala part of the fair bo on
Jackson park ; tlio art gallery , electrical ais-
pltiy and music hull on the lalto front , and
that tbo midway plaisnnco and Washington

wont over without action.
The classification committee then reported
results , they having agreed upon the Do
Young classification. After some discussion
the report was adopted fixing the Io ) Young
classification as the ofllcial ono for the expo
sition.
