"I am convinced that wheat will llilo at 35 shillings a quarter during the best part of the -season , and It tbo Argentine crop Is nipped It > ' . Ill KO still higher , " said Mr. Hush , the editor ot llccrbobm's Corn CIrcuUr. to a World correspondent today. Mr Hush Is thoroughly In touch with all the leading opn.iurs and Is an expert Judge of admitted authority. "I consider that tbo position has become - como stronger , " ho went on , "and Hint the present fluctuations are merely momentary , In the last few days , In fact. Irr probability of a severe famine In India has Incre.uiM and our cables today serve to accentuate 'Lai expectation. The market Ii getting rid ot the weak speculating clement which ri's'ied in last week. When that Is done business will bccln on a sound bails with a progressive rlso In prices " Sotno buslncsi was done on the London corn market today. Prices were quoted a cent up from New York , but thcie weie no offers. Trank Wilson , the h-uJ of ilio firm of Mongredlen , Mllcrby & Co. , known not only as a dealer In grain In a largo way but as one of the ablest defenders of England's free trade policy and as ft high economist authority , speaking tbo views of Uio firm , said today : "Although I beljcvo the wheat market will bo active for the coming winter and spring seasons , still 1 doubt If prices will reach the average high level goncn ! ! y Im agined. I anticipate that 30 shillings a quarter will bo the ruling price , although I know a good many authorities in tbo trade anticipate that the ruling price will bo nearer 35 shillings. PHICK WILL HE HIGUEIl. "As to the Russian situation I under stand that there are large reserve ytuiks which the holders have kept off the tnaiket lillhorto , hopltiK for better prlcss. I do not think India will bo an Impo/ter to any appreciable extent and. bariliiR acci dents , wo should get a largo export from Argentina. Hut , though In my opinion the outlook has been painted In over rosy colors , etlll there U no possibility of wheat soon relapsing to the prices to which It recently fell. It Is realized that It cannot bo worked nt such prices and on that account , though thcro may bo violent upward fluctuations , I do not think the average llguro will bo below 30. " Mr. Woods , the editor of Dornbuch'H Cir cular , sold "Stocks are below what they ought to be am ! what they have been for ninny seasons , and the largo supplies now on the way to Europe will disappear almuot as soon as they arrive , because of the re duced stock In the hands of inlllera and retailers. Tbo failure of the Aus'rilUn riop Is now certain , and the India famine may oxercUo a great Influence on the market , If the present gloomy anticipations are real ized. The normal requirements of India are 27,000,000 quarters The crop harvested last March was only 22,500.000 quarters So there Is a present scarcltv as well as a prospective famine. If the next crop falls , as predicted , or even reaches 15,000,000 quarters , then India must become quite a largo Importer of foreign wheat. This posil bio Indian famine In fact la fiaught with possibilities for the wheat market , which may astonish everybody engaged therein" I may add that Mr Woods Is an authority second to none on the London market.

( Special. ) Jean de Rcszke silled from Havre for New York today by the steamship Champagne , his agent at Calais tclegtnphs to the World's London bureau , but without his bride of two days. There seems to have -been no religious marriage at least the public Is Ignorant of any and the civil ceremony at the malrlc of the Seventeenth arondlssmcnt In Paris wan of the most Informal character. The Comtessc dc Jallly-Ncsle , the bride. Is a divorced woman and the marriage was long delayed because of efforts to Induce Rome to grant a dispensation permitting It , In spite of the rule of the church against the marriage of a divorced communicant. The malrlc Is In the Ualgnellra quarter , not a very fashionable part of Paris , but the Com * tcssc Athur do Genlairlc. Mine , de Rc-zko's mother , has her residence In It Thursday Is a great day for marriages In Paris and the great singer had long to wait for his turn In a poorly furnished waiting room. The mayor was wlisent and tbo ceremony was pronounced by his deputy , a dapper man attired In a trim suit of evening dress with a trl-color scarf , deftly arranged across his shirt front. As one detachment after another - other made Its way up the staircase and revealed Itself to the view of the ushers the couples penetrated Into the recesses of a special bureau , where the necessary papers wore brought out and olgncd. Then there- was a epell of waiting In the vcstlbulo , after which back benches were secured In the marriage hall , pending a request from the master of ceremonies to go up hlglrtr. WHAT ONE SEES WHILE WAITING. Whllo awaiting the arrival of the great singer and his friends It was curious to note the different parties which had all come on the same errand. All sorts and conditions of men and women were sitting or standing In groups , beguiling the time as best they could. The marriage hall of a malrle Is a wonderful social levcler , for hero all arc equal before UIP law , which Is no respecter of persons , and If Is a case of first come , first waited on , with a vengeance. Refined ) oung brides came In delicate white robes , veils and orange blossoms , with their maids of loner and feminine relations , and friends In astcful attire , while men , resplendent In sartorial triumph , were to bo seen cheek by owl with other candidates , whose toilets vero of the simplest. The bcorlnc of one de- achment was arrned In a costume of divers colors , which could scarcely be said to har monize , while she was crowned , as to her lead , with a marvelous hot. Some of Ler supporters had apparently In their hurry eft their clgarctto cases nt home , as they strode along with paper-rolled samples of he fragrant weed affixed to the side of their ; ars. Old women In mob caps vvcro vla-a- vli of graceful dowagers. It was while all this animation was at its height , one ot the ushers having just exclaimed in rather alarmed tones that nlno marriages had still to be dispatched , that Jean dc Hcszke entered the vestibule with the Comtcsse do Mallly , his brother , Cdouard de Rcszke , their witnesses and iialt a dozen inalo friends. The brldo were a blue costume , the bodlco and hat being velvet. Her shoulders were covered with n fur tippet. This formed a toilet which set off her graceful figure and blonde tresses to advantage. The men were In frock coats. MAHHIKD LIKE ORDINARY FOLKS White Jean do He-szkc and his bride were In the matrimonial bureau their friends remained In the vestibule. After they had rejoined them there was a spell of wait ing , for at that moment the marriage hall j was packed. At last the suspense was at an end , and the party advanced to front benches , close to the desk at which the deputy maor was seated. The brldo and bridegroom occupied a middle place , with their respective witnesses Dr. Cbevalet and M. Cassalgn for the bride , and Leopold de Kroncnberg , his brother-in-law , and Adam de Mlchalskl for the bridegroom on cither side ot them. And a striking contrast did they present to many ot the parties that had just preceded them. The usual preliminaries having been gone through by the secrctar ) , who read out the marriage document , the deputy mayor arose , and , all standing , proceeded to pro- nounco tbo ceremony , which Is very brief , being of a purely legal character. The couple ore reminded of their mutual ob- llgatlor.s by several references to the civil code. The bridegroom Is told that he owes fidelity and tupport to his consort , while the virtue of obedience Is strictly enjoined upon the bride , who , however Is comforted with the assurance at the close that she can dispose of her own property as she idcabes. There was nothing noteworthy In this particular ceremony , nor was any special address made to the married pair when It came to au end. Thu bride was married by her maiden iniiiiu of De Goulalne. After the ceremony the usual formality ot signing was carried out , and then , vvhllo the olllcials continued their task of unit ing other couples ) ct awaiting the tlng of the nuptial knot , the party drove away , as It had conic , lu the neat but modest car riages , devoid of thu slightest ostentation ami attracting no notice.

Not oily Ilryail , but the English bimetallists - lists also , are deprived of one of their most effective arguments. " INDIA'S DUOUTir SERIOUS. Indian advices show now that whether rain falls or not there must be keen dis tress In the northwest provinces and In Oude , and the Indian government must be prepared to succor the population by at least 40,000,000 of relief operations , con ducted according to the so-called famine code. Orders have already been given to these olllcials to prepare for an Immediate enforcement of famine measures. Whllo famine Is threatened In India through the drouth , the west of It eland Is declared to bo face to face with famine , owing ' to hcav ) rains , which have caused the failure of the crops , especially potatoes. Throughout September and during the be ginning of October there was an almost Incessant downpour of rain. There have been great floods In the northwest of the Island. Many of the peasants must feel the pangs of famine before Christmas. The situation Is compared to that of 1879 , when a disastrous harvest led to a revival of political disorders In Ireland. However , the chief secretary for Ireland , Mr. Gerald Ualfour , during his recent tour of the af fected districts , secured Information which ho sajs will enable him to cope with the distress , which ho Is now ready to meet. SUB WAS ONLY A SPY. Janus O'Connor , anU-l'arnelllto member of Parliament , who intends to ask Parlia ment to order an Inquiry Into the Tynar. affair , bases his demand on the past his tory of a mysterious Mrs. Tyler , who , ho asserts , acted as a medium between Tynan and the Hrltlsh police. It appears that when Sir Gcorgo Trevclvan was chief sec retary for Ireland , the Dublin police learned that Mrs. T > ler offereiT bonk notes to the amount of 20 to a sporting man who was supposed to bo a Fenian , to buy dvuamlto with which to blow up the houses of Parliament. The sporting man , it Is added , Informed the police of the offer made to him , and thu detectives after ward searched Mrs. T > Ier's room and found , It Is alleged , a telegram addressed to her from the Home olllcc. The bank notes , It Is further stated , were aftcrwaids sett to the treasury. Sir William Harcourt , who was then homo secretary , Is said to have acknowledged this story would show that Mrs Tler was an English police bpy. A letter has been received at the London olllce of the Associated press from Mr. Henry WIndt , dated Fort St. Michael , Uerlng sea August 20 , In which he says : "I have safe ! ) crossed Alaska and am now only 200 miles from Uerlng straits I have been stuck hero n month , but shall go on In a few da8 am hope to be In Siberia by the end of Scplem < her.

A short tlmo ago It was announced that the premises had been sold to the Iloyal Yach squadron and that they would hereafter have the historic chub house In St. James street for their town house. Color was given to the report from tho.fact that the annual meeting of the squadron Is alwu > s held at the Hoodies and that many of Its members are also members of the Hoya Yacht squadron. The last report Is that the Itojal Thames club had secured the Hoodies. As a matter of fact both report are entirely without foundation and tli only cliango contemplated In regard to tli famous old club Is whether It shall remali u proprietary club or whether the mem bcrs shall buy It and run It themselves A meeting to decide this question has beci called and a decision will be rendered ncx week.

The bctrajnl of the Husbo-Qcrman treaty las created Intense excitement In political Ircles , especially among the members of he Reichstag and Hundesrath , and unless xpllclt official explanations of the olllclal nslde facts arc given the government will c questioned In the Reichstag shortly by ho center party , backed by the socialists and liberals , on the plea that unlcro the government explains the matter tbo faith of her allies In her sincerity will be scrl- iusl ) shaken. ' Prince Ulsmarck apparently Is not In- Imtdatcd by the threats to prosecute ilin , for his organ , the Hamburger N'achrlchten , today replies to the iroadslde of the olllclal Hclchsanzclgcr of Tuesday last which Intimated that the fate vhlch overtook Count von Arnlm might await thoHc who disclosed secrets of state The Hamburger Nachrlchtcu today saya * 'Tlic negotiations of thoxo dajH of IHs- marck'a tenure of office wore not strictly itate secrets , but belonged to history. There s no necessity for secrecy so far as Gcr- nany and the Drclbund arc concerned , as the rcaty was made solely In compliance with Russia's wish and Germany has nothing o bo ashamed Of. On theo'ilriry all peace-loving Germans have just cause for satisfaction. It Is totally untrue that the treaty Implied dls- oyalty to the Drelbuud. The latter cvt < n allowed Austria to be neutral In the event of a French attack on Germany or on un provoked German attack on Russia. The whole Drclbund could Incorporate In It , If 'tussla was willing , and conclude the same agreement without abandoning Its main liurpase. This would tranquillize all the 'rl-n-Js of peace , and If there Is any In clination upon the part of Russia It would } o expedient to renew the Russo-Gcrrnaii treaty. " HAS NOTHING TO RETRACT The Hamburger Naehrlchtcn then takes the Rolchsanzeigcr to task for salng of its announcement of the existence of the Russo-Gcrman treaty that "It will neither correct what Ii faUo nor supply what Is incomplete , " sa ) Ing : "The statement made s not false , as declared by the Rclchsan- zelgcr , and the hitter can only supplement what It declares to be Incomplete by pub lishing the whole treaty Under thcso cir cumstances the Hamburger N'achrlchten considers itself entitled to demand a pub lished rectification , as required by the priss law , of the Helchsanzelgcr's assertion. " Emperor William Is known to be extremely Indignant at the article In the Hamburger Nachrlchten and an Interview with a Ger man statesman , published In the Vienna None Krcle I'rcsse , dated Hamburg , shows that the government has been seriously medl tatlng taking criminal procee'dlngs agaln.it the author of the article , under the so-called Arnlm paragraph of the criminal code. It Ii stated now that an Inquiry showed Count I't'rbcrt Hlsmarck was the responsible party and not his father who replied to the of flclal Inquliles that he , personally , had no hand In the matter.

NAILS ANOTHER LIE Ilitchcock'a Latest Fnko is Answered by Attorney Carroll. CHARGES ARE ENTIRELY GROUNDLESS TacU Concerning Alleged Coercion of Union Pncifio Employes. JUDGE SANBORN ASKS FOR A STATEMENT Assistant General Solicitor Furnishes the Information Requested , ALL EMPLOYES MAY VOTE AS THEY PLEASf iKIlrliukf < o llu' Urjnti HIIN- IrrN U'lio Hi-port Hint llnllroad .Mi-ii Are 1'orrfil Into Me- Ivlnlc * ) IlaiiUx , Of all the political roorbacko that have been sprung In Omaha at the eleventh hour for the purpose of Influencing votes , none bavo been so base as that which Is being circulated regarding the coercion of em- plocs J by the management of the Union Pacific I 8)stem. It Is reported that the em ployes are being compelled to enter the sound money parade of Monday evening rthd that t Union Pacific property Is being used for political purposes. That the facts In ' the t matter have been grossly unrepresented s shown by the following telegrams on the tibject. In the absence of General Solicitor Colly of the Union Pacific svstem , his os- Istant , William J. Carroll , has taken the natter In hand and entered an emphatic rnlal of the charges. In order that the isle-grams might be read by Union Pacific mploycs generally as soon as passible Mr. larroll at noon decided to give them outer or publication. The telegram to Judge Kelly from "Walter I. Sanbo.-n , circuit judgp of the federal ourt at St. Paul , re'ado as follows : "ST PAUL Minn , Oct. SO-0. M. Hitch- ock , publisher World-Herald , wlrrs me that he Union Pacific management Is preparing o furnish material for a McKlnley parade ; hat new material , especially for use In this > arade , has been ordcrt-u lit the expense if the Union Poelflc ; that evidence Is atnplo hat the Union Pacific management has been urned Into a McKlnley campaign com- nlttee ; and that the proprrty of the road s to be iiHcil for partisan political purposes. "Is there any truth In any of thcso charges ? None o ! the property or money of the Union 'aclflc or of the receivership and none of ho authority or positions held by any of he receivers or any of the employes must > u permitted to be lined to forward the In- crcst of McKlnley or nryan or for nny pa- Itlcal purpose whatever. I hold you re sponsible and require } ou to rco that this lollcy IB otrlctly pursued. If any other course Is or has been contcmplatHl by any one , sec thut It Is not followed. If any employe of the court under this receiver ship uses the property of the Union Pacific or his position or authority as nn omplojo or partisan purposes , discharge him. This receivership must not be used for political " purposes CARROLL'S CAUSTIC REPLY. Mr. Carroll's telegram In reply follows : "OMAHA , Oct 31. Your telegram to Kelly reaches me In hLs absence ; he Is now ca route home After careful Investigation I find the management Is not preparing to furnish materials fcr any McKlnley parade , or that new material has been ordered at expense of the Unl n Pacific for that purpose. The only basis for the charge Is the fact .hat certain subordinate emplojcs bought 'rom tbo supply department railroad lan- crns and requested the supply agent to furnish them blue glosses , which , not hav- ng sulllelcnt In stock , he ordered for that mrpose : but not at the expense of the rail- cad , and iolely for the use and at the eiibe of the men bn > lng them. The custom of sale of supplies to cm- plojes Is an old one , never before qucs- .loncd. "In all other respects Hitchcock's state ncnts are absolutely false It seems very evident that ho Is merely attempting to use yourself to bolster up his cause , and your name to frighten Union Pacific men from exercising their political choice. Individually the large majority of Union Pacific employes at Omaha are supposed to bo for McKlnloy , and many of them are or- gonl/tng for marching In the procession Monday night The management and olfl- cors have no contiol or Interest In these or ganizations No officer of the receivers , BO far as I can ascertain , is exrrclslng any authority for political pui poses during this campaign. TLo writer has purposely refused to sign documents circulated by employs for political purposes , knowing that Hitchcock would certainly misrepresent the fact. You may expect an avalanche o { lies to cmanato from the source mentioned duilng the campaign. " , PACTS IN TIIC CASK.
