by a sound, civil, secular and Christian feeling ami respect for actual rights. Only within a few years had tho labor party become strong. The system o( profit-sharing was most attractive as an adjustment, but then came the question of bow it was to be adjusted in thoso years in which there was a loss instead of :t profit. In any case it was most important to give the laborer the same interest in the production as tho capitalist. To this end ho looked with confidence, in view ot the good disposition displayed on each wide. Doubtless strikes helped tho workers' cause, but he thought all would agree that they were only adapted to what he might call a rude Btato of industry. It was to bo hoped that the workmen were now in a better position than to be compelled to havo recourse to 6uch wasteful methods. Much might be bored from co-operation, distribution and production towards a solution of the problem, because this would give the laborer the same position nnd feeling as the capitalist. Workers were no more exempt from infirmity thau other men. and tho- intoxication of the power they had won might bewilder them as it bewildered others, yet he had sufficient belief in tho charactor of bis countrymen to bold the conviction that these errors would correct themselves. in an eloquent peroration Mr. Gladstone appealed to employers to give the workers, besides an increase of wages nnd a decrease of nouns a sense of common feeling with their employers; to establish a brotherhood of man and man; to look to the heart and conscience as well as to the appetite and ambition for a solution of these difficulties above all, to look to the Providence that shapes our ends, and recollect tho sacred words. "Behold bocr good ani pleasant a thing it is for brethren to dwell together in unity." Mr. Gladstone endured so well the fatigue of attending tho Liberal conference at Newcastle, and of his speech on that occasion, that it has been widely hoped that he might be counted upon for another oratorical effort in the near future. The forthcoming agricultural conference at the National Liberal Club, it was hoped, would furnish the occasion for the veteran statesman's next appearance in an exposition of his party's policy. Tho conference is expected to take action which will have an important bearing noon the attitude of the rural voters toward tho Liberal party. With a view to obtaining a definite statement as to his intention, a correspondent addressed an inquiry to Mr. Gladstone, which has elicited a reply to the effect that the ex-Premier does not expect to prepare an address for that occasion, but hopes to be present and to make such impromptu remarks as may occur to him as appropriate at the time. Mr. Gladstone adds that ho fully recognizes tho importance of effecting rural reforms, and considers this featnre of the Liberal party's programme a very essential one So far as he knows or has considered the matter at present, he expects in any remarks he may make to keep within tho lines of h;s former utterances on this snbject. not deeming any departure therefrom called for by tho circumstances under which the conferenco is to be held. IIRITAIV5 PARLIAMENT.

Present Session Likely to He Dissolved Next Year One of the Longest on Record. Special to tho Indianapolis Journal. London, Nov. 28. It is practically certain that the date of the dissolution of Parliament will be known in March if not before. Upon the opening of the Commons the leaders of the opposition will be entitled to demand from the government a clear statement of their intentions in tbo matter. There are many precedents for such a requirement. The report spread about yesterday that the government will not dissolve until 1893 may, it is said, bo disregarded. In tho course of next year tho Parliament of 1SSG would, if it were continued, becomo older than any Parliament of the century. Only three parliaments have exceeded three years those which assembled respectively in 1S20. in 1859 and 1S74. Of the three, the longest, that of 1820. endured for six years, one month and ten days. If the Parliament of 1SS6 were continued to next November it would beat the record of the centnry. Thus has constitutional practice been molded, and the opposition will be justified in refusing to vote supply beyond tho time in which tho dissolution and the assembly of the new Parliament ought to be accomplished. It is clear, and is the opinion of all tho Liberal leaders, that the government would nnf 1 in Atititlnrt in than fi renmatnrco, t ask supply for the usual period of twelve months, and upon this point, which will bo the most pressing question at the beginning of the session, the government will be bound to give some explanation. The best opinion is that it will ask for nine months' supply from the 31st of March and dissolve in Juue. uuless circumstances render it desirable to postpone the dissolution to tho earliest convenient time in the autumn. It would : be absurd to suppose that the opposition will consent to the introduction of estimates for twelve months without precise information as to the dissolution without pressing the demand, upon clear constitutional grouniff that to prolong this Parliament, which assembled on Aug. 5, ISn'), beyond Sept. 15. would bo to exceed tho practice of u whole century. Tho McCarthy ites are very sanguine that the Parnellites will not hold more than four seats at the general election. Timothy Harrington is supposed to have a good chaucH of retaining his seat in the Dublin harbor division, and if Mr. Kichard Power, tho whip, stands again lor Wuterforti, hia personal popularity, apart from his politics, would probably serve to bring him back. Mr. Pierce Maboney has a fair chance of being retained for North Meatb. It is also just possible that Mr. Jordan may be defeated by a Paruellite in West Clare. It niu.t be added, however, that six Meats will probably be captured by the Unionists in consequence of tho split in tho National ranks. Several of the Ulster seats, including West Belfast and North and South Fermanagh, are in peril, and Mr. Justin McCarthy is undoubtedly threatened in Londonderry, though tho result of tho last revision ot voters in that city is reported to be extremely favorable to the Nationalists. PEASANTS IMPLORE 11 LP. The Czar Besieged by Ills Starving1 Subjects While Journeying- from Crimea. St. Petersburg, Nov. 28. The Imperial family have started from .the Crimea on their return journey to this city. Crowds of ragged and starving peasants wait at tho stations along the route to present petitions to the Czar imploring help. The gendarmes are unable to prevent the people from assembling. Reports from some of the faminestricken provinces say that the peasants are burning tho hay and straw of their landlords. It is said that the government now perceives tho disadvantage, if not folly, of pouring forth millions for famine relief before winter is well begun. The realization of this want of foresight has resulted in efforts to restrain and regulate relief contributions, but it is now too late to resort to restraint, and action in that direction will only bavo the ellect of inciting the famished peasants to revolt. The latest news from Saratott and Kasan is to the ellect that famine and typhus are increasing. The government has added large districts in Kursk to the famine list. Five thousand horses and eight thousand cattle have been slaughtered in Ycronesh in one month on account of lack of fodder. Storiesof tbedistrcscaused by the widespread famine in Kussia continue to be received with painful monotony. Death and pestilence caused by tho character of tho food to which tho peoplu havo been compelled to resort in their efforts ' to prolong Ufo aro doing their work and daily the mortality increases. Many of the inhabitants of the various famine-stricken provinces are migrating from one part of the country to another, hoping by some ittroke of fortune to improve their coudidition, but as they are absolutely penniless, they find the task of procuring bread equally hard everywhere.

DILEMMA OF KING CAKLOS

Mast Choose Between Joining Russia or tho Powerful Triple Alliance. Fall j 120,000 cf the Czar's Soldiers on the Roumanian Frontier, Heady to Seize the Little Kiccdom Yben Occasion Is Given. RESTS AVITII KING CARLOS. Roumnr.Ia's Fate Depends on Whether She Taket Sides rvlth Itustia or the Alliance. Special totlio Indianapolis Jonirr.l. Lomon, Nov. 28. All Roumanian politics now hinge on the point whether Kouraania joins Kussia or the triple alliance. The majority is on the Russian side. The minority, beaded by the King, is on tho side of the triple alliance. In 6pite of assertions to the contrary the Vacaresco incident and the departure of the Queen and visit of tho King to Italy and Berlin have all had political imports and results. The Vacaresco incident has seriously Carlos I, King of Roumania. shaken tho dynasty, which, in any case, never bad any solid root in the country and it has destroyed what little popularity the Queen ever had. King Carlos, although the constitutional King of Roumania, has in no way lost the habits and instincts of the Hohenzollerns. The Ministry at present in power aro pro-Russian. The crisis, which has for some months been weighing heavily on the conntry, is intensified by the fact that the day is approaching when Roumania will be forced to declare on which of the two sides into which Europe is now divided it will be found. Roumania is in one sense the most influential of the small southeastern states. A Russian advance toward the Bosphorus. on the European side, needs pass through Roumania. Tho attention of the agents of the various governments interested in keeping a vigilant watch over the Russian movements of troops has been particularly directed to the point where the Austrian and Roumanian frontiers join the Russian frontier. Near there, at a place called Noselitza, a considerable concentration of troops is reported. Noselitza, which is near Cerenowitz, in the Bnkovtina, is the point of meeting of three military railwavs which have boen constructed from points on tho main lines running from Odessa and Kiel!'. The Russian force now in the Odessa command is composed of five infantry divisions, containing eighty-three battalions, a brigade of riflemen of eight battalions, sapper battalions, two battalions of fortress artillery, a pontoon battalion and train, two cavalry divisions, two brigadesof field artillery threo field telegraph parks, one mining company, the Seventh and Eighth Don Cossacks, with their light artillery, and other Cossack regiments not specified, and four reserve cadet battalions with the usual auxiliary corps. Behind this formidable force aro the5eventh und Eighth corps d'armee with their headquarters at Sebastopol and Kieff, respectively, which could easily reinforce tho army in Besarabia. On the Roumanian frontier alono the lowest estimate places the number of Russian troops nt 12,000, 60 that in the event of trouble Roumania would bo overrun by the Russian urmy. A well known diploraate, in speaking on the subject, said: 'When Lord Salisbury, in his speech on Thursday at Birmingham, said there was not a single speck of cloud on tho horizon foreboding danger to the prospects of peace, be tempted Nemesis. No such unqualified forecast has been expressed by a European statesman since the days when Lord Hammond said thero was not a cloud upon the sky just a month before the outbreak of the Franco-German war. Now. as then, thero aro only too many permanent causes of European war steadily at work. It is only too evident that Europe has not shaken down into its permanent shape, and he would be a sanguine man who seriously believed that the question of Constantinople or tho question of Alsace-Lorraine will bo settled without war probably more than one war. Till tbo causes of war aro removed the future can never be certain and never bright. No power, it is probable, will deliberately provoke a war, but at any time an unlucky incident or combination of incidents might feet the armed hosts In motion.". ci:ni:kal foreign news. Ex-King Milan Said to Have Reen Appointed Commander of the Persian Cavalry. Paris, Nov. 23. Many stories are told in connection with tho recent renunciation by ex-King Milan of all his legal rights in Servia and his position in the Servian army, but it is a question whether any of thase stories contain more than a grain of truth. Tbo newspaper La Paix to-day has a story which, if true, shows that there was no foundation for the rumors that tho reason for the ex-King's action was his desire not to bo trammeled with the cares of state and to be able to spend his time in Paris. By tbo terms of his abdication in favor of bis son Alexander, now the boyruler of Servia, it was provided that in tho event of tho death of King Alexander Milan would return a King of fcervia. By tho renunciation of his legal Tights in Servia upon the payment to him of a lumpsum of money, literally a selling of his birthright. Milan gave up all cl-iim to the throne.

Nov. 2?. Valparaiso advices Btato that the Amerlcen war vessel Yorktown is an object of considerable enriosity, and crowds from the vicinity of Valparaiso aro visiting the harbor to see the newerrival. The Baltimore men are doligbted to be relieved of their isolated condition, and feel, some of them 6ay, as if they were not afraid of anything the Chilians might do. The American uniform ashore is treated with more respect than ever, and tho Chilian police are rather over-officious in seeing that American sailors are not annoyed. The latter, by special orders from their officers, are careful to have as little contaet as possible with the Chilians. The Chilian war vessels have been taking some brine practice, and it is acknowledged on all hands that, although splendidly equipped, they are utterly inefficient as compared with American gunners. 'Russia for tlys Russians. London. Nov. 28. The Russian Synod of the Greek. Church has adopted a policy of marked hostility toward the German Lutherans, who form an important element of the population of tho western proviccs, and of the Crimea especially. Tho order has gone forth to tho priests of the orthodox church to use every pressure within their powrer to cause the heretics either to embrace the true faith or emigrate from the country. It is believed that this harsh policy was adopted at tho instance of tho Czar, who is thus enabled to proceed indirectly against the Germans, whom he could not attack opeuly, as he did the Jews. The policy of the government at present is well summed up in the phrase, "Russia for the Russians." Rain-Makers nil in India. Madras, Nov. 28. The theory that explosions in the air will produce rain is beginning to lose its supporters in this presidency.

OiNE WAY OF RAISING MONEY

$1,700,000 Worth of Securities ;Rcnvpothecated by New York Brokers, Sensational Developments in the Affairs of Field Si Co. Denounced as Criminals by Sidcey Dillon Senior Partner Insane. New York, Nov. 23, The suspicion that the firm of Field, Wiecbers. Lindiey Ar Co., which failed yesterday, had rehypothecated the securities held by them on a loan of fcGOO.000, and amounting to 1.000,000, developed into a certainty this morniug. At the Stock Exchange 60,000 of Union Pacitic, Denver &. Gulf consolidated first mortgage lives were sold out under the rule on the account of the firm. Upon hearing of this fact Judge Dillon sent for Assistant Secretary Bnruham, of the Stock Exchange, and had a conferenco with him at bis oflice. Sidney Dillon was present. Mr. Burnham was notified that the entire list of securities are not a good delivery,. and was requested to post the notice. A meeting of tho committee on securities was hurriedly called by Secretary Ely, and it came to the decision that the securities would not be a good delivery, and posted a notice to that eifoct, and sent word to the various banks. The securities named m the protest sent to members of the Exchange amount to about ?1,000,0C0. - Mr. Sidney Dillon was met on Broad street, hurrying to his office. He spoke about the notice and said: "Tho hypothecation of these securities is what 1 term criminal borrowing. I do not think thero can be auy milder view of the action taken. We have been endeavoring to get the matter settled before, and have offered several times to pay the loan as we have had the money deposited at Drexel, Morgan & Co.'s for some time. It is only drawing 2 per cent, interest there, and we wanted to get it out. 1 called at their otlice this morning and found them all so tlus t rated that they could give mo no information whatever." At the office of Field, Wiecbers. Lindiey & Co.. the assignee, Mr. Charles W. Gould, was seen. In reply to questions he said: "I really do not know in what condition things stand. I havo been preparing to take an inventory of the securities and other assets. As to the reported rehy pothecation of the Union Pacitic securities, I really don't know anything about it, but hardly can believo that such a thing has been done." In regard to the condition of Mr. Edward M. Field, the senior member of the firm, Mr. Gould said: called at Mr. Field's house this morning, but did not see him. I saw his physician, however, and learned that Mr. Field's condition is very serious. Arrangements are being made to send him to a private insane asylum. Mr. Cyrus W. Field is also very ill of nervous prostration. I tried yesterday to talk with Mr. Field, but found his mind wandering, and ho was iucapable of talking intelligently. His symptoms are not thoso of an acuto maniac, but ho cannot keep his mind on an3'thing." This afternoon Mr. William Field told a reporter that his father was not as ill as was eeuerally thought. "My father is somewhat prostrated," he said, "hut at present we have no fear of the outcome. He is not in bed, but lies down upon a sofa, occasionally rising and sitting in a chair. In my opinion father will be all right again in a few days." After the close of the Stock Exchange today the exchange officially announced that the Union Pacitic railroad had noticed it that securities of the face value of $1,710,000 had been misappropriated, and these securities were accordingly declared to be not a good delivery on account of sales made in the exchange. The following statement is made by officers of the Union Pacific in regard to the notice given to the Stock Exchange: "Of the securities of its system, which were held by Field, Lindiey Wiecbers ifc Co., in relation to which the Stock Exchange has made a ruling that they are not a good delivery, a large part were delivered to that firm as collateral security for three loans which matured Nov. 13. 24 and 25. and the balance of tbo securities for a loan which matures Jan. 1 next. The company has repeotedly otlercd to pay off these loans since the funding scheme was consummated, and has stood ready to do so, but prepayment was refused. Since the three loans matured the company has made every eliort to take up the loans, but the lenders delayed, making various excuses for not being ready to deliver up the collateral on receipt of payment. The company stands ready at any time to pay tbo loauson delivery of collateral, or to meet any of its obligations provided collaterals are returned." Several of the brokers of the suspended firm have sold the bonds and must make delivery on Monday to the buyers. As they are not a good delivery, the sellers are endeavoring to have the buyers cancel tho transactions. Edward M. Field has left bis home at No. 125 West Twenty-third street with his wife, but where he has gone is not kuowu. The carpets in the house have been taken up. trunks line the hallways, and the general appearance of the house would indicate that tho house is to be closed. This afternoon six large trunks were driven away in a wagon. A servant of the house said they were empty trunks being carried to tho country to bo tilled. This statement cannot be true, as it took two men to lilt each trunk. The same servant, during the afternoon, having his attention called to the inconsistency of his statement, admitted that Mrs. Field had left the house last night and had not returned. The servant said that he believed that they had not left the city, but denied all knowledge of their whereabouts. Beneficial Order Assigns. Philadelphia, Nov. 28. The Advance Beneficial Order made an assignment today for the benefit of its certificate-holders. The order has 4,200 certificate-holders, the majority of whom are residents of this city, but it also bad lodges throughout the State, Ohio and Michigan. It is estimated that the claims of the certificate-holders against the order amount to about &00.000. To meet these claims the order has $70,000 in cash and $77,000 locked up in tbe suspended Spnug Garden National Bank. Other Iluslness Troubles. Boston. Nov. 28. When tho announcement was made that the Suff olk Trust Company would close its doors, officials of the institution made the statement that the depositors would not sailer; that with but 8162.CGO of deposits there were $100,000 cash on band and over 300,000 in qmck assets. A report to the bank commissioners of tbe condition of the ibank Nov. 21 last shows the deposit to be $181,000 and the cash $17.000. over $2,000 of which is in the Maverick Ban. Boston. Nov. 2S. Fred Pope, architect and builder, is financially embarrassed. He has unsecured liabilities of about $117,000. his principal assets being the equity in tbe Copley Hotel.

Miller armed himself with an ax and commenced to demolish tbe feLce, when Wolph appeared, armed with a hatchet, and a tight ensued. Their skulls were broken. It is impoesible for either of the men to recover.
