WHEN THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK. The Markets Show Noteworthy Strength. Despite the Existing Labor Troubles. New York, Jan. 28. The following is from R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly trade review: The strength of 'the markets is noteworthy, in view of the labor troubles which have affected the week's business more than many, realize. The strikes of the coal-handlers arid longshoremen here affect not only the coal trade, but exports of grain, provisions and cotton. - The Massaehu setts movement for free ships having nearly 'stopped boot and shoe manufacture in important localities,' affects that business and the leather trade. , Actual aud threatened strikes of 'carpet .weavers affect the wool trade. . Speculation has lagged. .Wheat, after advancing to 94 cents, weakened. because exports were checked, and closed as a week ago. with corn a shadelower. and oats a shade higher. Cotton, coffee, sugar and pork -products are unchanged, oil a cent lower," and cattle a little lower. Receipts of iTexas ' meat in London call attention to the erowine dressed meat traffic. In 1883 shipments of cattle to New York and New England were 493,000, and of dressed beef 133,000 tours. . In. 1886 cattle shipments were only 332,000, while dressed beef smptnsfits were 223,000 tons. The New York average price of cattle for 18S6 was half a cent lower than for 1885, and probably, the lowest yearly average for twentyfive years. The butter trade is also dull and values uncertain. In .tobacco there is no im provement, and last year's average for wheat was about the lowest on record at New York, as in Great Britain. Dry goods tend upward at present, print cloths and many varieties of brown, bleached and printed cottons having advanced during the week, with active trade. Woolens fail to ad vance, m spite or nigher foreign prices for wool, yarns and roods, and higher prices for woo here; poods generally open at last year's prices. with chsviots about o per cent lower, and worsteds offered with hesitation. - L . ""Iron continues to strengthen. The speculative fever nils Southern papers witn notices or new corporations, and conservative journals utter warnings. No important financial action by Congress is now expected, and the railroad presidents have been convened by Mr. Fink to con sider the interstate bill, the signature of which is deemed certain.

' Sale of Worsteds and Woolens. New York, Jan. 28. Over 9,000 pieces or heavy and medium-weight fine worsteds and woolens, the product of the Conshohockon and Marystown mills, were sold to-day, at auction. The attendance was large and the bidttinc at times spirited. The prices realized were low. Goods which, it was said, cost $2 a yard to manufacture, sold at from $1.23 to $1,67.

Sullivan went to the office of Dr. Sayre to-day, and consulted him about the broken arm. The celebrated snr eeon quickly determined that the bone had not been set in the best manner, and told Sullivan that he would never get the complete use of the arm unless he had it broken again and reset Sullivan told the surgeon to go ahead. With a sudden twist Dr. Sayre opened the fracture, and the bone was soon reset and the arm bandaged Sullivan fainted with the pain, but was brought to in a moment, and then was sick for a time. Dr. Sayre explains that, as the bone was at first 6et. it would have been impossible for bullivan to bring the hand up iu front of him witn ine palm toward the face, and of course the natural use of the arm would be impeded in many ways. There is no doubt, in Dr. Sayre's mind, that the arm will now become as strong and effective as it ever was. TJallotinjj for Senators. 0 Charleston, W. Va., Jan." 28.

THE TROUBLE WITH CANADA

Statement in the British House of Com mons as to the Fishery Disputed The English Government Very Desirous that an Amfcahlo Rftttlemftnt Be Reached- 1 an Amicable Settlement Be Reached Meantime the' Canadians Talk War. The Glenheigh Evictions Under Debate in England's House of Commons. Seventy Thousand German Reserves Ordered Out, Presumably as a Peace Measure, the Emperor Saying War Is Not Meant. ' TOE FISHERIES QUESTION. England Desires an Amicable Adjustment War Talk Among the Canadian Militia. London, Jan. 28. The subject of the dispute between the United States and Great Britain in regard to the Canadian fisheries was brought up in the House of Commons this afternoon. Sir James Ferguson, Parliamentary Secretary of the Foreicn Office, in answer to inquiries, said - - - that the government has been conferring with the eovernment of the United States on the question. The Canadian fisheries, he said, were very valuable, and the government had followed the policy concerning them which , had been adopted by the preceding governments, and would maintain the rights of the colonies, with every desire to conciliate the United States. The government was unable, at present, to narrate the whole coarse of the negotiations with the United States, but could state that a dispatch had been received which was of a pa cific nature, and afforded material grounds for hope of a final settlement of the dispute. United States Minister Phelps had an hour's conference with the Marquis of Salisbury, to day, at the Premier's request, to discuss the Canadian fisheries question. The conference was most cordial on both sides. Lord Salisbury expressed himself gratified at the general tone of the American press and people in the dispute, and he assured Mr. Phelps that England and Canada were equally desirous of an amicable adjustment of the whole case. Ottawa, On t, Jan. 28. The war talk from over the border has raised a similar bellicose feeling among the militia of all the British colo nies, and there is a growine feeling that a re course to arms la .not unlikely. The War De partment here has maps of every fortification in the United States, all of them equal to those possessed by the War Department at Washing ton, particularly those upon the coast and the great lakes, and duplicate copies have been sent to the imperial Minister of War, in London, so as to prepare the mother country for any emerg ency. A careful review of militia here has been ordered, and everything has heen pronounced to be in first-class order. THE GLENBEIGH EVICTIONS. The Opposition Ask Some Embarrassing Questions as to Events in Ireland. London, Jan. 28. Mr. Theodore Fry, Liberal member from Dartington, asked the government in the House of Commons, this afternoon, what they had done to prevent the burning cf dwell ings from which tenants had been evicted at Glenbeigh, Ireland. He also asked whether General Sir Redvers Buller had tried to obtain concessions for the tenantry in Ireland. Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, Chief Secretary for Ireland, replied that - General Buller had , not interfered until some seventy evictions had been executed, when he tried to influence the mortgagees toward creater leniency. Tho government, Sir Michael said, had 'no legal right to go further than this. "There is," continued the Chief Secretary, "one real remedy, and that is to remove these poor people from the poverty-stricken districts," Cries of "shame," "shame," "no," "no."l "wfth their own free will," Cries of "no," "no," "'never," "shame." "to some other place in Ireland." A great prolonged uproar here ensued. The Speaker interrupted the proceedings at this point and notified the members that cries like "shame" wouid be rigorously suppressed. Sir Richard Hicka-Beach then said: "All I wished to say was that tho very poor people living in poverty-stricken districts should be removed to other parts of Ireland, or elsewhere, where they could live in prosperity and comfort, if those who take an interest in this matter de.dre to promote such a settlement, I will be most delichted to give every aid in my power to any action they may combine on to bring it about" Mr. William Redmond (Parnellite member for North Fermanaeh) arose and asked: "Does the government approve the actions of the authorities in burning the ouses at Glenbeigh?'' Sir Michael Hick-Peach replied: "It is not my business to express any opinion on that point" The subject was then dropped and the debate on the address in reply to the speech from the throne was resumed. The last of the evictions from the "Winn estate took place at Coomasharr to-day. Three tenants were evicted and their houses leveled to the ground, and two others were readmitted to their dwellines as care-takers. Asent Rowe, in one case, made a renewal of his offer to pay the costs himself if the tenant would pay half a years rent, but the tenant, a man named Gales refused the offer. There was considerable bard language exchanged between thepolice and the crowd, and a little stoning on the part of the latter, which at one time threatened to become serious. The police, however, drew their batons and drove the crowd back, two of the villagers suffering from broken heads. The resident niacistrate here interposed, and matters became quiet. Mr. Timothy Harrington, 31. P., was present GEXERAI. FOREIGN NEWS, j A Move That Looks Like War, but Emperor William Says It Means Peace. London, Jan. 28. At a court reception today Emperor .William informed the assembled officers that 72,000 men of the reserves would be called out immediately and be drilled in the use of the new repeating rifle. This announcement, taken in cop junction with the reported words of the Crown Prince Frederick William, at the same reception, that the situation was still serious, renews the public alarm. The Emperor, in conversation with the leading geuerals of the imperial army to-day, regarding the calline out of t the reserves, remarked: "This will produce loud rumors of war, but there will bo no war. . Trie reserves are called out only to accustom them to the use of the new weapons with which the army will hencefortn be armed." Advices from Vienna sav the issue is expected of an official order prohibiting the exportation ' of horses from Austria-Hungary, it being feared

that the closing of German markets to foreign buyers might result in an excessive drain upon

the Austrian markets. The Vatican and German Politics. Berlin, Jan. 28. The Frankfort Gazette has a dispatch from Rome saying that the Vatican is surprised aC the assertions of the organs of the Prussian government relative to the attitude of the Pope. Prince Bismarck, the dispatch says, promised he Pope the complete ab: FfSiWf. ican's influencine the Centre partv to vote f or the septennate. To this proposition the Pope responded that he was unable to interfere, but that he had caused the leaders of the Catholics to know that fee would be pleased if the members of the Centre could be found voting for the septennate consistent with their political duty. Cable Notes. It is expected that the result of the McGlynn affair will bo that the Pope will address an encylical letter o the Catholics in America, de fining the attitude of the church toward the ris ing tide of democracy. The secretary of the Hebrew dramatis club which was giving an entertainment at the hall in Spitalftelds street, London, in which a panic occurred, on Jan. 18, resulting in the loss of several lives, has testified that the panic was caused by the action of the secretary of a rival club. T ST. STEPHEN'S AND DR. M'GLINN. A Successor to Father Donnelly Said To Have Been Named The Church May Be Sold. New Tors, Jan. 28. It is hoped that the troubles In St. Stephen's parish are over. Father Charles f Colton has been made rector to succeed Df.'McGlynn. Father Donnelly returns to St. Michae)'a Church. Father Colton was once assistant priest at St Stephen's. He is wen liked in the parish. Cardinal Taschereau visited the tomb of Gen. Grant this afternoon, remaining before it for some time and blessing the place. Later, in com pany with Archbishop Corrigan, Cardinal Gibbons and a few ethers, he dined at the residence of Major Kelley, in Brooklvn. Cardinal Taschereau said that the caset of Dr. McGlynn had been discussed at the Archbishop's house, and that it was unanimously agreed that the Doctor had greatly injured his case iu allowing the parish ioners of St Stephen's to act as they did toward Father Donnelly and the Archbishop. Cardinal Gibbons isjrather friendly toward the Doctor, and the Pope, he thought, would doubtless confer with him before deciding the case of the suspended pastor. Sneaking abont the affairs of St. Stephen's, the Cardinal fiid that if the peo ple continued to withhold their support, the church would be sold and given - over to the Dominicans, or some other order in the church. Patrick Smith, late clerk of St. Stephen's par ish, and acting as Dr. Mculynn's secretary, says, on Dr. AlcUlynn'a authority, that Dr. McGlynn, in his letter of Dec. 20, informed the Archbishop that he had. for some time, had reason to positively forbid him to undertake the journey to Rome. : Jn the same letter Dr. McGlynn gave other grave reasons why he could not go, one of which, while entirely creditable to Dr. McGlynn, was of a private nature, relating so to others that it would have been highly indelicate for the Archbishop to publish it. At St. Stephen's, to-night, while'members of the parish; were waitine to confess to Fathers Barry an4 O'Callaghan, Father Donnelly came in with fioine police officers and ordered them out. After some force was used the people left. Father Donnelly ordered the two prfests, also, to leave the church. CORRUPTION IN BROOKLYN. The Granff Jury Finds that City Officials Have Bartered Franchises for Personal Profit. Beookxyv, Jan. 28. Some very startling dis closures were made by tho grand jury to-day. They reveal a most alarming state of affairs in the workings of the city government, and virtually charge the chief of the Brooklyn fire department and members of the Board of Alder men with granting franchises to electriclight companies - for their personal ben efit. The grand jury states that while there exists cause for placing such a stigma upon local officers, an indictment would be useless, because of the loose manner in which the laws lookinc to the punishment of such evils have been drawn up. The circumstances under which telephone companies were allowed to erect poles aud string wires in violation of. law point to official corruption of a serious nature. The Mayor is exonerated bv the grand jury, which expresses the opinion that he has been thoroughly hoodwinked. Brooklyn is powerless to stamp out the iniquity, because of the failure to obtain the testimony of witnesses necessary to convict the corruptionists. The presentment of the grand jury causes a profound local sensation. Losses by Fire. San Francisco, Jan. 28. The Anderson-Califf block of buildings was destroyed by fire this morning. Loss, $75,000. Cedar Rapids. Ia., Jan. 25. Early this morn ing Shaver & Downs's cracker factory was burned. Loss, $20,000; insured. Memphis, Tenn., Jan. 28. A fire to-night burned H.

At about 10 o'clock this raornine the, two-story dwelling-house of Mr. John Castel, one mile southeast of the city, caught fire from a defective flae and burned "to the .ground before any aid could reach the place. The loss was about $1,200, with no insurance. About 150 bushels of wheat and oats were stored in the house. This was also entirely destroyed, adding considerably to the loss. Lafayette, Ind., Jan. 2& About midnight of the 27th the elevator beloncing to Sylvester and 'Elizabeth, Taylor, at Taylor's Station, this county, took fire from a passing engine and was entirely burned. The building was old one of the first elevators erected in the county and the los3 will be about $1,500. The flames extended to the cribs, in which were stored about 6,000 or 7,000 bu?hels of corn, belongin? to Lambron Brothers, Chicago. Their loss will be $2,000. The township school-house was also burned, increasing the loss $500. The Lutheran Church took fire but the flames were extinguished. No insurance on any of the property. Temperance legislation In Minnesota.' St. Paul,, Jan. 23. In the Senate and House of the Minnesota Legislature, to-dav, the highlicenso bills, fixing licenses at $1,000 and $500, came up for final action. After an acrimonious debate, the Senate laid the bill over to Tuesday, and the House recommitteTi the bill to the committee on temperance. The liquor men are jubilant over the result, claiming the delay was secured through their influence, and seriously endangering the success of any high-license bill; but 67 members of the 103 members of the House have signed a pledge to vote for the present bill when it comes up.

IXGAIXS'S BIG SCHEME. Annexation of Canada and Central America A Response to Hi Critics. - SpeciaV to the Indianaoolia Journal. Washington, Jan. 28. Mr. W. E. Curtis, of the Chicago News, had an interview with Senator In galls this afternoon, of which the following is an extract: " I Senator Ingalla declares himself, with his characteristic emphasis, as in favor of the an nexation of Canada, and not only -Canada, but the entire Central American States. He coined a word to express his doc trine, and it was . "a continental republic. The unanimity of the assault upon him by the English and Canadian papers, since his speech on the fisheries resolu tion would seem to indicate that the blows he struck were felt and were a good deal more than a disturbance of the air. That he struck a popular chord in this country is shown by the deluge of letters that set in upon him the day after his speech was delivered, and which still continues with increasing numbers. He has received a good many from . Canada, as well as from citizens of tbe United States and the former are all anonymous, vituperative, vindictive and insolent to the last degree. The letters received from this country have come from every State that could send a mail, so far as Washington since the debate, and are all con gratulatory, enthusiastic and grateful Says Mr. Curtis: "I asked the Senator to show me some of the letters, and, pointing to a great pile on his desk, he said I was at liberty to help myself, and. after some urging, permitted me to make copies of a few samples without giving the names. I asked him if he bad read the attacks upon him self in the English and Canadian papers. " 'My attention has been called to them,' he replied; 'the tone of,the editorials iu the leading London journals is a further illustration of the temper of England . and the English people toward America and our institutions. They attempt to divert the issue from the eravity of the accusation ' to the insignificance of the accuser. The real question is not w'aether Mr. Inealls is obscure, but whether his allegations are true or false. No supercillious allusions to me or my State . can . distract attention from the real principles in controversy. We have been so submissive, so forbearing in the "past that tbe world is . coming to believe us a nation of cowards. There has been, such a transfusion of the dry rot of anglomania into our social system, such an adoption of the single eye glass and the "aw" tbe jargen and the raiment of Engiand so much flap-doodle and whip8yuaDun, tea, custard and nonsense about kindred blood and the land of Shakspeare and Milton, that there has been a . temporary aberration of the intellect and a suspension of self-respect on the part of the American people, who forget that England is the only enemy we have-on the face of the earth. It is time that the American people awake to the fact that the statesmanship of the nineteenth century requires the unification of this continent under one homogeneous government from the frozen sea to the interoceanic canal, wherever it may be built That canal should be our southern boundary. My dream, and, I believe, the settled conviction of the American people, is a continental republic. That is tbe manifest destiny, that is the inevitable tendency of the political forces of the American people. It is their only safety, and instead of wasting our power in petty intrigues with savages for a naval station in the Pacific sea, a wiser . and more commanding policy would be . to establish relations of international friendship with our Canadian neighbors in the north and our Spanish neighbors in the south, and not permit the machinations of Great Britain to foment disturbances that will defer such an alliance or render it impossible.' - - "I asked Senator Ingalls to give me his ideas on the continental republic a little more in de tail, but he said he intended o say something on this subject iu the Senate soon, and did sot want to spoil his speech." AN ARCHITECT WANTED. The Right Man Can Have Mr. Bell's Place by Applying- to Secretary Manning. 8pecia1 to the loJIanapoli Journal. Washington, Jan. 28. "I am very much surprised," said a Republican Senator to your correspondent to-day, "that no Democrat has yet made his appearance who seeks tbe place now held by M. E. Bell, Supervising Architect of tbe Treasury Department; that is to say, no one who has tbe necessary ability has yet applied. There are, of course, plenty of applicants, but the right man has not yet asked for the appointment Secretary Manning would very willingly. give the place to a good man, if he could find one that would accept; in fact, I am infermed, on the most reliable authority, tbat he has offered the, place to no lees than four different architects in different p:irts of the country. The place only pays $4,500 a year, it is true, but the supervising arc-Litect virtually has control of the expenditure of millions, and it is a place that gives an architect an extensive acquaintance with contractors, which is in it6elf frequently worth the entire salary paid for his services by the trovernment Tbe present incumbent of the office had very little practical experience before he was appointed, and nothing would please the administration better than for a well-qualified Democrat to apply for the place." "How is it that you, a Republican, make this suggestion?' "This is not a political matter. M. E. Bell passed out of the Republican party some time ago, and I think it wouid be very difficult to explain his political affiliations jnst now. 'lie left the Republican party voluntarily,' to influence his own retention, and as far as I can learn the Democrats are not particularly anxious to have him with them. MI30R MATTERS. Treasurer Jordan Will Resign and Accept the Presidency of a New Rank. Washington, Jan. 28. It Is settled pow that Mr. C. N. Jordon, Treasurer of the United States, will relinquish his present office May 1, in order to accept an office, probably the presidency of the Western National Bank of the city of New "a ark, an institution now in process of organization, and which will be fully established by tbat dale. Mr. Jordan has not yet formally resigned, but expects to do bo shortly after the adjouru-

ment of Congress. It is understood that the change in office involves a decided increase in salary, the exact amount of which is not stated. The salary of : Treasurer is $6,000 per year. The new , office, it is said, will pay at least $10,000 per year. Mr. Jordan regards the Treasurer's salary as wholly inadequate to the duties and responsibilities of the office, and does not thinn it proper that the extra services rendered by tbat officer for the national banks and sinking-fund commissioner for the District of Columbia should continue ttf be rendered gratis, as under the present system. Lieutenant Greely. .a Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

Washington, Jan. 28. One of the most as eiduous of the afternoon callers is Lieutenant Greely, of arctic seas fame. His pale and intellectual-looking face can be seen every place where the eiddy, crowd mo6t do congregate. His appearance is iu marked contrast with the vapid-looking youths who generally make up most of the masculiue element at the from 4 to 6 "at homes." I could hardly help thinking, as I looked at him last night, intently listening at a local -literary society, of what an enormous contrast there was between his position something less than three years ago, lying starving and without hope in tbe awful ices of the north, and sitting in easy contentment amid surround' ings the most luxurious. He said to a friend, late last nfght, that for the past year his flesh had been like that of an infant's. This remark was called forth by his having immediately be- ' fore accidentally knocked his hand against the banister, and, although the impact - was not vio lent, a bit of flesh was completely knocked off.. Ambition has its deadly price sometimes. Garland and the Interstate Bill. -NewYobk, Jan. 28.
