celebrated by a dinner in his honor at tho Uellevue. at which over etght3 members of. the Philadelphia Stock Exchange sat down. Mr. Adams, the president of the Htock board, who eat at the head of the table, informally congratulating the guest of the evening, paid the following high tribnto to him as a business man: "It is rare that & man in any business can carry on his work successfully for fifty years, and it is still rarer in the banking business. To use Mr. Barker's own words, No man has crer had to ask him twice for money, nor has any man ever sued him. nor has he sued any man.'" In 1S(W Mr. Barker's son Wharton became a member of the firm. The first matter which brought the house prominently before the gener.il public was the announcement, in 1877-78, that they had become the financial agents of the Russian government in the United States. This mission was at that time a highly important one in view of war between England and Kussia, which then seemed imminent. In carrying out the instructions of the Russian government Barker Brothers & Co. procured four ships of war, suitable ordnance, and completely armed and eqnipped them. The total expenditure was several millions of dollars, and the whole transaction was consummated to the utmost satisfaction of Kussia. To-night Abraham Barker, the venerable head of the firm, said he thought it very hard, after a business career of fiftythree years, to be thus overwhelmed by a financial cyclone. During the past few days, he said, he had devoted all of his time and financial ability to raising money for the help of others, and when his own time of need came those who were indebted to the house had failed to meet their obligations, and suspension became inevitable. . BUNS ON SAVINGS BANKS.

Excited Poles Clamor, Without Reason, for Their Money In the Citizens', of New York. New York, Nov. 20. The run which was begun on the Citizens' Savings Bank here was continued this morning. As early as 9 o'clock there were at least from fifteen to sixteen hundred excited Poles gathered in the vicinity. In fact, a number of the nnfortunato people who have fears that they have lost all their hard earnings paraded up and down the neighborhood all night. Within the bank, this morning. President Quintard and the cashier sat watching the preparations for the day. The president said to a reporter: "We made about a thousand dollars in interest money yesterday, lost by the frightened depositors. In all, -we paid out over 8113,000, and took in about $1R,0U0. The run will probably continue to-day and to-morrow, but we expect all this money back next week.77 As yet the bank has not made use of its privilege of claiming ninety days, bat it is likely to do so if the run continues for several days to come. No reason is known for the run. When the bank .officials were ready to begin their day's work the crowds gathered about the doors and pushed and surged so madly that to open the doors would be to admit such a mass as would be entirely unmanageable. Word was sent to the nearest police station and the reserves were at once ordered out, with Captain McCullough at their head. After a good deal of trouble the crowd was got into single file, which extended around from the bank doors into Canal street and clear down to Elizabeth street. As soon as order was restored the depositors were admitted to the bank in squads of fifteen. The president of the bank had oilers of assistance to-day from kindred organizations. They were respectCully declined, saying there was enough sash on hand to meet the run. Mr. Quin tard said that it would take at least a week to settle up -with those already in line v-day. Excitement at Newark, N. J., Allayed. Newark, N. J., Nov. 20. A larger crowd than on the two previous days shivered outside of the Howard Savings Bank, this morning, long before the bank opened. Hundreds of women surrounded the bank to withdraw money. Most of the with drawals were by Poles, Italians and other foreigners. There were nine women to every man. Many business men made de posits, as usual, to allay the feeling of sus picion. President Frelinghuysen says that he has plenty of m oney to pay off depositors, and if every depositor withdrew the bank would still have over $500,000 left The business community is not worried by the run on the bank. The run abated somewhat this afternoon. Many of the depositors, learning that they could nave the safety of their deposits guaranteed, went to a guarantee company and insured them. The- bank directors made an official statement declaring that its stocks and securities were all safe, and that there was no danger of a collapse. They expect the run will abate to-morrow. The 6care seems nearly over. Confidence is being restored by the assurance of safety. OTHER BUSINESS TKOUIILES. Assignment of a Number of Firms Encaged In Various Lines of Trade. Cincinnati, Nor. 20. Charles Jacob, jr., & Co., pork and beef-packers at Plum and Find! ay streets, assigned this morning to George C. Jacob. Liabilities, 00,000; as sets, 40,000, with preferences given in favor of George Wuest for $17,500. The fail ure is not attributed to the recent financial stress, but goes back to Mr. Jacob's diver sion from business into political life some twelve years ago. Liabilities, gtO.100. Minneapolis, Nov. 20. The Lumber Mens and Manufacturers lire Insurance Company and the Mutual Fire Association. which were placed in the hands of a receiver last Monday, were located in Ean Claire, Wis. borne newspapers, by giving the item as published a Minneapolis date. have led to the supposition that the Minneapolis Mutual Fire Insurance Company was one ot the companies involved, no Minneapolis institution is in any way involved in the troubles of the suspended companies and none are in any financial diihculty.

PARNELL IS NOT CRUSIIED

Michael Davitt Wants Aim to Quit Poli tics, but the Irish Leader Will Xot. He Sajg He Is Not Pweady to Give Up Bis Work in Behalf of llis Country Speech by Morley Mysterious Crime at Paris. PARNEIX MUST RETIRE. Michael Davltt Says the Irish Leader Should Not Imperil the IIome-Rule Movement. London, Nov. 20. The Labor World, Mr. Michael Davitt's paper, says: "Mr. Parnell is under a moral cloud which he has brought upon himself. The crisis wnich he has caused in the home-rule movement is the gravest that has occurred in ten years. There is only one course for Mr. Parnell to pursue. That is to efface himself from pub lic life for the brief period which must ensue oefore he can legally marry Mrs. O'Shea" The Labor World asks: "Is the people's support of the home-rule movement to be imperiled by the refusal of Mr. Parnell to separate his personality from tne interests of home rule!" Mr. Parnell, the paper says, cannot plead ignorance of the feeling of the Liberal party regarding his new position. The paper holds that those who argue that the control of the Irish party is the sole affair of the Irish people and that nothintr will be involved or jeopardized if they do not repudiate Parnell's leadership, unconsciously play into the hands of the enemies ot Home rule. Others show surpassing, extraordinary ignorance of the necessities ot this political crisis, and witn tne wild extrava gance of blind zeal say that rarueu is a Protestant and is not morally responsible to the Catholics. Those who advance the latter aguinent. says the Labor World, are shaking the very loundation on wnicn society stands in England. I he paper adds: "Parnell is asked to matte a small sacrifice in return for the sacrifices that a confiding and generous people have made for him. lie must not considor his own political future in this crisis, but what is the best course to adopt in the in terest of home rule in England. He must remember that he defied Irish popular sentiment when he rode rough shod over the feelings and opinions of his own party. when, in liwo, in tne presence ol auotner serious crisis, he thrust O'Shea upon theelectorsof Galway. lhe wounds thereby inmcted upon the minds of his ablest followers are yet unhealed. Loyalty to the union, fideli ty to the cause, compelled nis colleagues to fuip down tneir inaignauon. wm .nr. 'arnell now ask a similar sacrifice from his home-rule friends iu England?" In response to an inquiry Mr. Gladstone has telegrapned that it is not true that he has conveyed any intimation to Mr. Parnell as to the course he should pursue in consequence of the result of the O'Shea divorce case. United Ireland says: "Ireland s charac ter for morality will intensify the scorn of toe people lor tnose earning nypocriies wno think publicity is the essence of sin. Now is the time to repay Mr. Parnell for his public services. In reply to the affected purists and phansees we say: 'We have our leader, and mean to keep him" The Irish Catholic says: "rarnoll has sinned nearly as much against Ireland as against morality, but the general political exigency demands that he continue to be the leader of his party." The Freeman's Journal, in its issue to day, hints that the government is considering a surprise to bo sprung upon the people at tho next general election for members of the House of Commons. Com menting on the attitude of Mr. Stead iu regard to Mr. Parnell, the paper says he is a raging lion seeking to devour any one who disputes his argument that Mr. Parnell ought to bo driven into eternal darkness. Mr. Stead, the Journal says, has called a meeting of the vigilance associations to consider whether Mr. Parnell is a fit leader of the Irish Nationalists. In recard to the Pall Mall Gazette scepticisms, tho Journal's London correspondent asserts that he has received Mr. Parnell's personal declaration that he does not intend to resign his leadership. The whole Irish party, the Journal declares, stands in a solid phalanx at Parnell's back. PARNELL WILL STAND FIRM. Mr. Parnell has sent to several of his col leagues a communication to the effect that as long as he is supported by his colleagues and the Irish peoplo he will remain at the helm in politics. He says that he has never sought either office or reward of any kind from any English party, and he does not seek their assistance now. The Irish peo ple, not English politicians, must decide the question of the leadership of the Nationalist party. At the present critical juncture he would be false to his duty to Ireland if he should desert his position be cause of private matters with which poli tics have no concern. When his mission Ireland after her long struggle against overwhelming odds, the people may choose whom they will to conduct their local affair. If they desire others as leaders they will be able to sele.ct the men of their cnoice. In the convention of Nationalists of County Galway, Ireland, to-day, fifty priests being present. Sir Thomas Esmonde. M. P. for Dublin county, south. said that the Irish would be the greatest of fools if they changed their leader. Commoners Sheehy, Nolan and other speakers indorsed this sentiment. Mr. John Morley. speaking at Sheffield to day, said that the Liberals had a duty toward Ireland which stood on its own merits. This was no time to consider the case of Mr. Parnell. Kt.-Hon. A. J. Muddella, of Mr. Gladstone's former Ministry. also made a similar statement. in the course of an address to his constituents. These speeches are taken as giving the cue to Mr. Gladstone's attitude on the subject. If so. they would indicate that the Liberal lead er intends to treat Air. Parnell as a polit ical figure, entirely ignoring his personality and paving no attention to the develooments in the divorce case. In this ho would have ample precedent in English political history. The statement is made in Nationalist cir cles in Dublin that Mr. Parnell will resign his seat in Parliament at the end of the session and will offer himself for re-election. 3IORLEY REPLIES TO BALFOUR. He Thinks the Secretary Hat Degraded Pub lic Life by Ills Recent Utterances. London, Noy. 20. Mr. Morley addressed a meeting of the Liberal federation at Shef field to-day. Two thousand delegates were present. Mr. Morley declared that public opinion was strongly in favor of an eighthour limit for miners' work. The Liberals, he said, must determine whether the state ought to intervene in this matter. Ho did not oppose state jmtervention whenever it was proved that such intervention could achieve good ends. Referring to General Booth's scheme, he spoke in favor of ex periments being made toward making bet ter the miserable condition of the poor est classes. He approved disestablishment of the church in Wales and local option. Turning to Irish matters. he attacked Mr. Balfour for using language against his opponents which lowered the tone of political controversy and degraded public life. Mr. Balfour's words at Liverpool, accusing the veteran Liberal statesman of lying, would make small impres sion upon Mr. Gladstone and his friends. lhey had special difficulties aud anxieties at this moment, but thev never ex pected, when they embarked on this voyage, cloudless skies and summer seas. Having put their hands to the work, it was their duty to keen the great Irish national question apart from personal considera tions which did not belong to it. It was their duty now, as it always had been, to hold that question aloft to public view. This doubtless happened to be difficult at a monrent when the country was stirred by anxious incidents and painful disclosures. "Hear, hear."! Only let them recognize that t one of these disclosures in the slight est degree derogated Irom the justice, urF:encj and sac red new of the great cause. Cheers. That cause was as sound to-day as it ever was, and it became fiom day to day more urgent as it drew nearer to the final iosue. ICbeers.j So it was more than ever necessary to look at the case on its merits and to allow nothing else, however

grave, and which might be considered in its proper time and place, to slacken for a moment their devotion to what they had undertaken. Prolonged cheers.j A 3IYSTERIOUS MURDER.

General Sc-liverskorTs Assassination Still Fuzzllng the French Police. Pakis, Nov. 20. The niece of General SeliverBkoff, who was found Tuesday with a bullet wound in his head in the Hotel Bade, and who died yesterday, has arrived here for the purpose of arranging tho details of her uncle's funeral. At the request of the Russian embassy no autopsy will be held. The government has closed M. Bernoft's Franco-Russian rooms on Rue Royale, where Padlewsky, the Russiau Pole, who is suspected of the murder,! was employed prior to his disappearance, and is acting in an energetic manner against the Nihilists who reside in Paris. A person resembling Padlewsky crossed the Belgium lroutier Tuesday night. Le Martin says the police believe the killing of General Seliverskoff was an act of private vengence. Padlewsky, the paper says, was the lover of a girl who had been enticed by a woman at the iustanceof Gen. Seli verskoff into a resort, and this,, it is claimed, was the motive lor the crime. A liason existed betweeu the woman and Gen. Seli verskoff, who induced the girl to visit the house. Nihilists here affirm that the Genera, at the time of his death, was di rector of the Russian police in France, and that he played an important part in the recent arrests of Nihilists in Paris. Tho newspapers recall the fact that a servant of General Seliverskoff, named Muller, was assassiunted in Paris, in lSttS, and that the murderer was never found. Since that time the General received a number of let ters threatening him with death. The Eclair says that a Nihilist committee decided that if Sophia Gunsberg. who was arrested at St. Petersburg for having bombs in her possession, vas sentenced to death, General Selivorskott ironld be killed as soon thereafter as possible. The woman wan sen tenced to be banned last Monday and the shooting of the General occurred the day after. Padlewsky arrived here simultaneously with General Seliverskoff. and it is be lieved he followed the General from St. Petersburg. The Nihilist Mendelsohn had several interviews with Padlewsky last week, and is known to have given him money. MINISTER REID WILL REST. Two Months Tour In Turkey and Egypt Ills Work in Behalf of American Interests. Paris, Nov. 20.-Mr. WThitelaw Reid, the United States minister, accompanied by Mrs. Reid, left to-night for a two months' tour of Turkey and Egypt. Many friends went to tho station to bid them adieu.

The Chamber is now en gaged on the budget, whioh it must pass before adjourning, and it must adjourn about the middle of December ' on account of the approach of the senatorial elections. While Mr. Reid will reveal nothing concerning the status of his negotiations with the government, it is believed that his departure for a holiday in good spirits augurs well for the success of his eftorts. . President Carnot is gratified at' his elec tion as an honorary member of the Bunker Hill Monument Association, of which the Marquis De Lafayette was the first honorary member, and to-day he sent a handsome .acknowledgment through Minister Reid. The latter presented Col. Harrison Ritchie, of Boston, to President Carnot, the other day' to enable Colonel Ritchie to hand to the President the certificate of his election. To-day Mr. Reid received a Sevres bust from President Carnot. with a letter ask-. ing Mr. Reid to transmit the bust to the association to be placedln its assemblyrooms as a souvenir of President Carnot s appreciation. .

Robert Buchanan, against Mrs.' Eangtry for damages caused by her failure to play in New York last season in the character of .'Lady Gladys," which was especially writ ten for her by Mr. Buchanan, came up for trial. Mrs. Langtry testified, in a humorous manner, that the part was unsympathetio aud unsuitable, as the character, as depicted by Mr. Buchanan, was that of the daughter of a broken-down old earl, wlo was actuated by revenge for the killing of her dog.

Whether he repudiates the George doctrines in so many words, and openly or not, his reinstatement in the church will bo equivalent to a recantation of those doctrines, inasmuch as they have been declared heretical by the church since McGlynn's excommunication.

STANLEY MAIUUED. It Has Improved the Explorer Much Ills Serious Nature. Blakelv II all. In Brooklyn Eagle. , Mr. Stanley has improved wonderfully in appearance since his marriage. 1 assume that the improvement is due to his marriage and the companionship of a remarkably sprightly and attractive woman, for it lb certain that the fire at explorer's last trip in Africa was not calculated to restore his y outh, if the stories of outrage, misery, privation and trouble which have been told by all the survivors are true. Before Mr. Stanley went to Africa on bis recent trip he had fallen into a condition where he apparently pined for the dark continent. He was heavy, lethargic and taciturr. He comes back to America with the amiability of a finished man of the world and an appearance of entire and complacent happiness. He has grown rather stout, but there is now a faint tinge of color in his cneeks, and his eyes are as bright as those of a sixteen-year-old girl. In manner he is the Stanley of old. I doubt if there ever lived a more thoroughly earnest man than the greatest of African explorers. He smiles at pleasantry but never makes a jest. The work of his life is the only thing that really interests him and he does not make the slightest statement 1. bout African matters without carefully weighing his words. When Major Barttelot's brother made his extraordinary attack on Stanley, people who knew the enplorer well felt- a certain amount of surprise at the temerity exhibited by Stanley's assailant. It has been proved by a great many years' experience that it is not well to make loose allegations against Stanley's work in Africa, and if his years of toil have proved anything, they have proved him to be a man of undeviating exactness and care in all of his personal relations, and of elaborate accuracy in everything which ho writes. That he is dictatorial, and. in one sense, domineering with his subordinates, is no news. He appropriates all the fame of histrips, and perhaps he is not far wrong, either, for, when all is said and done, only one man has come to the surface out of a good many millions who has shown Ids ability to overcome all of the physical and moral obstacles offered in Africa, and achieve a success which is as indisputable as it is unique. Stanley's arraignment of Barttelot will be severely criticised and the denials will be numerous, but there is no going behind the calm and terrible array of facts which the explorer has made known to the public within the past two days. It is a mistake to attribute great wealth to the Stanleys. Neither the explorer nor his wife has any private fortune, and, if is true that the last Stanley expedition was undertaken on a purely commercial basis, and that Stanley was to receive a very large sum of money from a company who hoped to nandle iumm Bey's ivory tusks, it Is certain that Stanley got nothing out of it himself. The information comes to me from a man in close business relations with the explorer and it can be depended upon. Mrs. Stanley rather shares the honors with her husband, and with reason. She is a tall, mature and womanly-looking woman, with a very soft and insistent way of speaking. America is to her a comparatively undiscovered country, and she is wrapped up in sight-seeing at present. The explorer's rewards are coming late in life, but they are coming in abundant measure. A single season in American will undoubtedly return him a comfortable fortune. A CONNOISSEUR IN CIGARS. How Professor Mendenhairs Wife Secured a Great Bargain. Cnicago Mall. Dr. T. C. Mendenhall, formerly president of the Imperial College of Japan, and at present the head of the United States geodetic and coast survey, is an inveterate smoker and alwaysuses the finest Havanas. He tells the following concerning himself and his fondness for good cigars: "Ever since I was married my wife has never failed to give me some sort of a surprise on my birthday anniversary. Usually this has taken the form of some unexpected f resent. Kecently 6be said to me: Tom, 'm going to give you something new this year; it will not be a little trifling gift, but something I believe you will enjoy even more.' For the next two weeks 1 tried to imagine what was o be the nature of the innovation, but the eventful anniversary camo around and the mystery was still unsolved. In the evening, however, a dozen of my old college friends came in upon me and I found that a dinner had been prepared. At the table the arch-plotter said, triumphantly: There, Tom, I know 1 would surprise you this time. I know there is nothing in the world yon men like so well as to get together and enjoy a jolly time all by yourselves, and now I'm going to leave you alone; but before I go I have something here which I am sure that Tom will enjoy, and which I hope you will also like.1 Here she placed before me a box of cigars. "I thanked her for them, opened the box, and passed it about tho table. I glanced at the brand, but it was something new to me. While the boys were lighting up I was engaged, temporarily, but I soon noticed that none of them was smoking. I tried a cigar, took a whiil or two, aud nearly strangled. I looked at my wife; she was fairly beaming with pleasure and self-satisfaction. Then I sadly laid down the worst cigar I ever met and tried to revive the general conversation. 'But you are not smoking, Tom. What is the matter! Didn't you get a good one! Try another, then,' said she. 14 'Oh, no, no; never mind. This will do very well, indeed,' 1 replied. '"Well, I thought you'd like them she continued. 'And hereafter I'm going to buy all your cigars myself. Do you know, gentleman, I believe that if Tom would only let me do all the shopping instead of my part of it I could soon lay np a small fortune. Why, Tom never thinks of getting a box of cigars for less than $7 or 8, and I cot these for $1.50.' And not a soul of us dared to laugh." THE NEW BATTLE-SHIP. , The Maine the Finest Specimen of Naval - Architecture Up to Date. SprinpfleM Republican. The launching of the shell of the new belted cruiser at the Brooklyn navy yard to-day is an event of unusual interest in naval circles, and its significance should not be lost upon the country at large. "In the name of Father Neptune aud Oueen Amphitrite, I christen thee Maine," the granddaughter of Secretary Tracy will say, smashing a bottle of native wine upon the bow of the new-born craft, at its first trembliug impulse to plunge into the outer channel. It is now twenty-eight years since Ericsson's monitor, the work of one hundred days, was built in this same yard and sent forth to sound the death-knell of every navy in the world. It is nearly thirty years after that epochal event that the first great war-ship, capable of engaging the strongest lloating fort that now fiies a llag, is produced by a government that may justly claim to have been the mother of the modern system of naval warfare. The cniisera that have hitherto been built to carry the American fiag have been for the most part mere commerce destroyers, designed to run away from the big battle-ships of the enemy. The ships of the white squadron, for instance. hve little or no armor, although their great speed and powerful guns would soon enable them to annihilate a large portion of the English or French mercantile marine. The Maine is the first armored battle-ship we have produced that can stand up and fight anything that comes along. It is the opinion of experts that when properly handled sha could fight on equal terms with anything that fiies the English fiag. Her armor will consist of a steel belt twelvi inches thick extending 180 feet fore and aft. three feet above the water line and four feet below it. Each of the four teninch ritles, with which she will be armed, will be capable of throwing a steel projectile weighing five hundred pounds a disU nee nf nine miles. The six six-inch rifles will 6end one hundred pounds of solid steel five miles, while her secondary batteries of four rapid-fire tmns of UU-inch bore, lour more of 1.85-lnoh bore, four revolving can-

Her engines of 8.750 horse-power, which will turn twin screws, will be altogether under the water line, and fully protected by water, ormor, ail chambers and coal bunkers. Thus the chances of a shot reaching them are deemed by the experts very slight. AU. though when first designed it was intended to equip the ship with sail power, her three masts have been so modified as to serve scarcely any useful purpose except as they will support fortiried platforms for the working of Gatling guns, capable of tiring 1.000 bullets a minute at a 1,000-yards range. In view of the controversy among naval architects as to whether a eteel war-ship should have greater longitudinal or latitadinal strength, it is an interesting fact that tho Maine is a compromise. She is supposed to be equally strong in all directions. As a finished product, furthermore, the Maine is not tho creature of American constructors alone. English and French designers wero invited to oiler plans and suggestions. ho is thought to embody the linest points of all tbn best schools cf naval architecture. The building of a war-ship of this type is about an comnlicatp and dtlien.tn n. xrnrlr nm can b found in the whole field of engineering. Authorized by Congress in August, lfc&O. it was nearly two years before it was possible to award the contracts for the Maine's construction, the whole intervening time being devoted to the work of debigning the craft. Laymen can have but a faint idea of what designing a war-ship means. Tho architect rau&t so plan that his ship will ride in all teas, oven when shot to pieces; he must provide in advance, so far as possible, for allsorts of disasters to an intricate machine. The actual building of the Maine was not begun until July 20, 1888, and thus the mere work of constructing the shell has occupied two jrears and lour months. Dut the ship is by no means linished. Two more years must now be spent in fashioning the steel belt upon her sides, in equipping her with machinery and engines, in placing the armament and in the general labor of making the structure habitable for officers and crow. The Navy Department hope to put the Maine into commission in October, lt&2. That' What It's Here For. Kansas Citj Star (Muj?.) The future of the Farmers Alliance will depend, of course, very largely upon tho use which shall be made of the tremendous power which has suddenly come into its hands. There are among its ranks many impracticable theorists, who believe that there are no ills for which legislation does uot provide a cure. An attempt to carry out this inea would insure the certain downfall of the Alliance and completely thwart the purposes of its existence. The demand for agrarian legislation must bo firmly disregarded by the Alliance if it desires to prolong its own life and to become a permanent force in politics. The Drisradiers 1V1U II Heard From.
