A Booming City, A Booming .Business.
Greenfield has boomed and along with the city's prosperous growth my business kept step until I find myself unable to handle increasing tiade without assistance. Especially has the Optical business grown to such proportions that it requires almost constant attention. In consequence I have turned this department over to Will E. Huston who will hereafter have entire charge of the same, while I will devote my entire attention to the jewelery business and thus be enabled to give my patrons better service in this line. Mr. Hu3ton is a graduate, of the Chicago Optical College, having graduated with the degree of doctor of Opthalmology and understands the correction of all refractive errors of the human eye, also the use of the.Opthaloseope Retinoscope for the detection of diseases and will be prepared to give a thorough examination snch as tbat .given by any leading Cptician or Oculist of the eottntry.

FALL OF SECURITIES
Almost Cause a Panic on the Paris Bourse.
TURKEY MUST EE DIVIDED.:
Not Since the Memorable Collapse in Financial Circles of 1873 Has Such a Sensation Been Caused in European
Capitals Salisbury's Speech May Involve the Deposition of the Sultan. LONDON, NOV. 11.—The Paris correspondent of The TimeB says that it is understood that only the intervention of the Rothschilds on Saturday, prevented the panic at Paris from becoming positively disastrous.
A dispatch to The Daily News from Berlin says that but for the assistance rendered by the Rothschilds on Saturday, bourse prices would have closed still weaker. The panic could not have been worse on the eve of a general European war.
At Vienna, according to The Daily News correspondent, the newspapers were thronged Saturday night with people who were clinging to the hope that Lord Salisbury's speech at the lord mayor's dinner at .London during the afternoon might possibly put an end to the panic. At a meeting yesterday at Vienna of the directors and managers of the principal banks it was resolved in case the panic should continue, to initiate collective action for the purpose of preventing the further fall of securities.
A dispatch to The Times from Vienna says that since Friday Credit Mobelier shares have fallen 20 florins, Austrian State railway shares 40 florins, Turkish lottery bonds 22 florins, Turkish tabacco shares 44 florins. Sinoe the memorable collapse of 1873 no such a startling panic has occurred at Vienna.
MASSACRES WERE ORDERED.
Eloquent Facts Prove the Startling Situation in Europe. LONDON, NOV. 11.—A dispatch to The Times from Constantinople says that as proof that the Armenian massacres are ordered from the Yildiz Kiosk, not necessarily with the sultan's knowledge, but by influential men of the palace party, anxious to discredit the administration of Kiamil Pasha, recently grand, vizier, the instance of DiarbeMr is worth citing. M. CamJbon, the French ambassador, after learning of the two days' rioting at Diarbekir, threatened to hold Alexandretta with the French squadron until the resignation of the governor had been brought about. Two hours after this threat reached the Yildiz Kiosk, Diarbekir was tranquil. The Times correspondent says that this is an eloquent fact explaining tke situation and that many smaller instances point the same way.
The diplomatic corps consider the lives of the Christians endangered throughout all the Asiatic provinces, but it is not believed they are in any especial danger at Constantinople, be•*«m» e# A* palfcee a*e net likely to initiate *ny anti-Chris-tian movements and tke members of the Mahsmmedau constitutional party advocate the adoption of a policy giving Christians a share in the government. The natural tendency in consequence is the cealit'ioii or the Mahommedan constitutional party with the Armenians, and, in fact, there are signs indicating that such a coalition would be likely to occur under circumstances in any degree favorable.
It is believed at Canstantinople that the new ministry will not live over tomorrow.
A dispatch to The Standard from Constantinople says that rumors are already in existence to the effect that a change may be expectcd in the office of Grand Vizier and that Hali Rifat Pasha may soon be expected to step down and out.
The run on the Ottoman bank is now virtually ended. Its perfect stability is no longer questioned.
Advices received by The Chronicle from Constantinople are to the effect that a consul has just arrived there and that he describes the whole country from Erzroum and Trebizond as being completely devastated. Every Armennian town and village is in ruins. Heaps of unburied bodies are found everywhere.
A Turkish official states that the trouble started at Erzoum with an attack on the government house caused by the torture of prisoners. Petroleum was freely used for the purpose of setting fire to the houses of the Armenians.
According to The Chronicle advices the patriarch intends to send a pastoral letter to the churches to be read tomorrow, announcing the sultan's promised reforms and counseling patience on the part of all his Armenian followers.
The Times, Monday, in an editorial says: Marquis of Salisbury's reference to Turkey in his address at lord mayor's banquet Saturday, was worthy of the best traditions of Bri/fish statesmanship, but he somewhat fails to appreciate the rapid movement of affairs in the far east.
The Vienna correspondent of The Telegraph says that news from Constantinople indicates that even the foreigners are in danger, and that the central European powers have decided to employ energetic measures to defend the lives and the property of their subjects.
The Talegraph editorially applauds Lord Salisbury's speech of last Saturday. It is argued that this speech may involve the deposition of the sultan.
APPEAL BY CABLE.
Chicago Armenians Were the Great Powers For Iielicf. CHICAGO, NOV. 11.—Armenian citizens of Chicago yesterday sent the following cablegram to the Marquis of Salisbury, prime minister of England, to Nicholas II, czar of Russia, Emperor William of Germany and to Secretary of State Olney:
The imminent danger of a massacre at Zeitoun and general slaughter of Armenians throughout Turkey prompts us to humbly beg your governments in the name of humanity to take steps to immediately stop these horrors and secure safety for Armenians.

Of the investigation and discharge of carriers for cause, Mr. Jones says that 885 carriers have been removed. He reviews the conditions which made the investigations necessary, the principal one being that the accumulation of overtime claims showed that something was wrong. The work has been systematically prosecuted during the past eight months and the carriers at 151 offices have been investigated. At these offices t-herejwere employed 4,075 earners, and their investigation resulted in the following: Reprimanded for various irregularities, 208 suspended for falsifying trip reports, 57 suspended for failure to collect from street letter boxes, 49: suspended for drinking on duty and loitering, 392 dismissed for drinking on duty and loitering, 55.
Mr. Jones says: "In view of the great saving effected and the general improvemennt in the service, especially in the large cities, I would recommend the employment of a number of men in the larger offices whose regular duty it shall be to inspect the work

MEXICAN NEWS.
An American Railroad Conductor Murdered Over Spain's Troubles. $ MEXICO CITY, Nov. 11.—The new issue of $20,000,000 five-per-cent silver bonds is merely for the convenience of the holders of miscellaneous claims against the nation so they may convert them into security readily marketable in Europe.
The Italian assassin of Kolbeck, the American railway conductor, claims he was defending the good name of the Queen of Spain when the American beat him and that led to the murder.
A Spanish newspaper here has sent a bed for the Italian now in prison and furnishes him with his meals. The Mexican papers demand that the assassin be tried on a strict legal basis whether it was a crime of homicide or not and that the question of nationality should not enter into the matter and the case should be divorced from all consideration whether the American and the Italian were disputing over Cuba.
General Francisco Mena, the chief Mexican military commissioner in Europe, arrived today.
VIOLENT GALES
Cause a Number of Steamships Trouble. The Campania's Experience. LONDON, NOV. 11.—A violent southwesterly gale prevailed at Queenstown throughout Saturday and Sunday, accompanied by heavy seas. While anchoring in the harbor, the Cunard steamship Campania's hawse pipe snpped, and she lost her anchor and between 30 and 40 fathoms of chain. The hosepipe was also fractured. After repairs the Campania proceeded at 6:30 last evening. The gale was still so severe that the tender could not come alongside the seamer at Cork and the pilot was taken to New York.
The British ship St. Mungo, Captain Hamilton, from San Francisco, arrived in tow, broke from her moorings and was blown to the eastern bank where she grounded. Two tugs are still at work trying to float her. Her majesty's steamships Speedy and Halcyon, and many other vessels are now sheltering in the harbor. -J
