THE EEiriKII TEMPERANCE 6 FLIT. Lady Somerset May Ee Seed for Lilel if She frcesn't Apolosizs. London, May 6. The British vomen'a temperance convention ended last evening. As the business has been conducted behind closed doors, the details of the tnrbulent proceedings ftro not easily obtainable. Lady Somerset, president, and Miss Francis Willard left the city immediately after the adjournment. Your correspondent, however, was able to obtain some interesting information concerning the contention, from Mrs. Docure, secretary of the British Women' Association, and the leader of the minority against I.ady Somerset, Mrs. iJocure says: "Lady Somerset wishes to introduce politics into a strictly temperance organization for instance, such questions as the eight-hour workingday, woman euflrage and the opium tratlic. She got d committee elected to support her views and purposes, but it wan not legally elected. Then she declared resolutions carried when she had not even put them to vote, fcjhe sprang this surprise upon us on Wednesday. We entered a protest on Thursday, but Lady homeraet ruled that it was out of order. raturally we left in a body. The dissenting delegates number 150. They nominated their committee and Lady Somerset nominated hers. Then she advised the delegates to vote for her nominees en bloo. and declared them elected, although they were not. She behaved in a manner altogether high-banded and aroused the indignation of many delepates besides the dissidents. A number of the branches of the association have seceded. We shall take no immediate steps toward organization, but shall wait developments. Lady Somerset's highLanded proceedings are likely to aetagainst her. Her address in the meeting was libelous of Mrs. Atherton. Mrs. Atherton has sent a demand to her for an apology, and it the apology is not made will bring suit against her." TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES.

There aro true friends of temperance .and their number seems to be on the increase who believe that the women's temperance movement is dissipating its ; strength by attempting too much. In the lease of the Chicago temple it has become a money-making concern; in the indorsement of the Prohibition party it has become a political machine, and in its true mission, while still continuing to do noble temperance work, it is handicapped in prestige and power cn every hand by tho prejudices arpused by these side Issues. - JeCerton V Too 111 to Play.

WALL-STREET FLURRY OVER

Yesterday Both Indnstrial and Hailway Stocks Were Firmer and Higher. Deacon" White Set So Badly Wcundrtf that Be Cannot Recover Cleveland and Bis Financial Policy Scored by Mr. Depew. QUIET DAY IN WALL STREET. Stocks Continue Their I pniiril Flight "Deacon White Not Hopelessly givamned. Ki:w Yoi'.K, May fi. The speculative head became cooled through the night, aud this morning Wall street ralke 1 up to the bull ring with a steadier nerve and a wider' perception of things. Since the close of yesterday's conflict tneu have held the situation at arm's length, and turned it around lor a view on all sides. They see to-day how the foreigners slid in under the smoke of yesterday's engagement and grabbed and made away with a sackful of dividend payers at Chatham-street prices. "We'll take some of 'this ourselves," was the feelingof brokers, as they smoked light afternreakfast cigars this morning, and more calmly read the record of their tassel for five hours yesterday. Hence it was that the general run of active stocks, both railways and industrial, opened strong and anywhere from Vj to 2'4 per cent, higher. Cordage rose Vi, to 21 Vs. and then receded to 20. In the first ten minutes of business, however, American Sugar, which had opened at 61, fell to 7?ht and this checked the rising tendency. There was another advance in consequence of the favorable character of the bank statement, but later the market eased oil. The industrials were firmer than the railways, and show net gains for the day of 11 to 12 points, the latter in American Tobacco. The market closed quiet and firm. Confidence is slowly returning in Wall street. Leading men express themselves as more bullish on the situation, and the following remarks of Uussell Sage are the views veiieralty held in influential quarters. Mr, biige said: 1 would not advise indiscriminate purchases, but good stocks may bo picked up now and held. It takes lens money to carry Manhattan that it did when it sold at 115, and Western Union looks cheaper than at 101. Lackawanna below 140 is not dear, aud the industrials, the menace to the market and the ones that have caused the depression, are now on a basis more representative of tiieir intrinsic value. I am not an unconditional bull, but I think that sales of short stock will not be productive of profits." The temper of the marker, taken altogether, is Jess feverish, and commission houses report a better inquiry from investors. 8. V. White was on the floor a little before 10 o'clock this morning and received many expressions of sympathy. This morning all those who had Stock Kxchance clearing bouse contracts in America Sugar with Mr. White, which did not go through the clearing bouse were assessed $17 per hundred shares. The amount of such contracts was .100 shares. This show the exact loss White made on his Sugar deal yesterday; At tho otlheofMr. White it was stated this afternoon that his atlairs are in better shape than was thought yesterday, and that he will resume in a few days. The reports that the Havemyers and others had offered to put Mr. White on his feet were denied. Mr. White said: "1 am not badly oil at all. If a man is struck by a runaway team he may have an arm broken or his back broken. In my case it is not in my judgement going to be any thing worse than a bad bruise. Any man connected with the business will appreciate that borrowiug. as I wai. millions of dollars, with a dropof $23 per share in twentythree minutes on some of the seonrities I was carrying, it was perfectly evident that calls would be made for margin greater than 1 could respond to on the instant, and it was my duty, under the laws of tho Stock Exchange, to promptly notify them of the fact. 1 did it, and did not know how bad the storm was going to be. A it appears this morning, things are looking not at all serious for permanent results." As Mr. White has made no assignment, his statements are generally credited. The failure of Ferris tV Kimball is not a bad one. Willium I'. Dixon, the assignee, states that the liabilities are not lnrge, but be hasno idea what the assets will amount to. K. E. V. McCarthy, assignee for W. L. Patton & Co., who went under yesterday, said that tho affairs of the linn are so complicated that it will require several days to ascertain tho amount of liabilities and assets. Facts and particulars regarding the inside rauses which led to the downfall of the National Cordago Company are gradually leaking out. and the mystery surrounding the unloading of the stock seems about to be unraveled. John Good, of the Good Cordage and Machine Company, was seen by a reporter to-day, and was asked if It was true that several directors of his company had called on James M. Waterbury, and asked if the National Cordtge Company had any overtures to make to the Good company, as reported. "It is not true," said Mr. Good. "Mr. Jenkins, one of our directors, went to see Mr. Waterbury, at my suggestion, to oiler our sympathy and aid. He did not see Mr. Waterbury. as he had gone home ill.'' Mr. Good said that the National Cordage Company's difficulties were brought out by soiling below rost. They were tighting the Good company, which wa a rival concern with a capital of ? 7.

The salvation of the National Cordage Company is through us." said he, "and they munt agree to our terms if they expect to continue." LIKE A llAltT WITH A LOCOMOTIVE. Mr. Depew Says the Financial Question Is Too Hijj for th Cleveland AdmlnUtrntlnn. New Yohk. May Cv The Herald saya that Chauncey M. Depew found time yesterday to pay his respects to the President und tell what he .thinks of the administration's financial policy. Mr. Depew said: "Mr. Cleveland appears to me like a baby with a locomotive. He does not know what to do. He acts like a pedagogue and appears to be endeavoring toedacate the majority of hia party, who are silver men, up to the gold standard, while in the meantime tho financial standing of the country is going to wreck. Thousands of men have already become bankrupt because Mr. Cleveland has not had financial horse sense enough to avert the crisis. He has not in bis Cabinet a man who has ever been a cood financier a man who has ever handled any large amounts of money and shaped a financial policy for the government. Mr. Carlisle is an able, clever man, but who ever hoard of him ns nsound fiuanrierand a man capable of handling hundreds of millions of dollars, as men did who were in the Republican administrations from time to time? Secretary Gresham and Hoke Smith are cood lawyers, but they are not versed in financial matters where many millions of dollars are involved. "When specie payments were about to be resumed in 1S19 the leading bankers of the country were called together and decided that the government, in order to have and preserve a sound and safe financial standing with the people aud the world, should keep in the United States treasury $100.000.1)00 in gold as a reserve, and that amount was tne sum fixed on by the government. It gave the peoplo . confidence, and they were assured that the government was financially soand. The amount was much higher at times and was down to within a few million! of the minimum, but never below it, and while the government assured the people that it was there they were satisfied and bad full faith in it. Hut since Mr. Cleveland came intooflice again he has done nothing to continue that confidence, and hundreds, yes thousands, of men who-were about to establish new industries or add to old ones stopped and would take no ehancea of losing what they had. "It would not have made so much difference as to the amount of gold in the treasury as long as it was understood that there was Sl00.ou0.000 there. Instead of putting bonds on the market and doing aomethins

to restore confidence. Mr. Cleveland goes right along trying to educate his silver constituents and letting the treasury and people take care of themselves. When Mr. Cleveland took the reins of government we vf ere moving along prosperously. The government wes on a good solid footing financially, industries were flourishing and we had the world's fair in prospect, with the belief that it would bring hundreds of millions of dollars into the oountry from other parts of the world. In spite of all that we rind ourselves in the midst of a financial crisis that is making havoc with everything, lint the people wanted a change in the government, and they got it." AMERICAN TABS DIDN'T ROW

Three of tho Boat Kaces on the. Hudson Won by British Men-of-Yars-Men. The Other Captured by the Russians An xcitinc Contest Yesterday from Which United States Sailors Were Birred. New York, May C When JacH Tar awoke this morning he was happy. To-day was the first day since he arrived in this port that be oould justly look upon as his own, and he rejoiced to lind the elements were kind to him. the air being cool and the sky cloudless. All the sailors who planned to participate in the race between the various boats belonging to the war ships tumbled early out of their hammocks and began preparations for the events. In the first place they went through a number of light exercises, which were followed by a cold-water bath. Jack was feeling in good condition then, and when he sat down to his breakfast he did ample justice to the meal. After an hour's rest tba boats wero lowered from the men of war. Those who were early visitors to Riverside drive, and their number was many, saw the sailors take a short spin. This is one of the peculiarities about sailors' races. While iu professional and amateur races the men who are to take part take no exercisoon the day of the race. Jack Tar is up early and pulling away for dear life. He says it limbers his inusoles aud gets him in better trim for the occasion. Nearly every boat which entered into to-day's contest could be seen on the river in the early morning. There were the ten and twelvo-oared cutters from the Brazilian, French, British. Italian, German and English vessels, and in some cases two from a single ship wore spinning over the water. There were liveoared galleys and white boats, and there were single-barked dingles. It was somewhat dillicult to distinguish the boats of one nationality trom. those ot another this morning, bnt this afternoon each boat carried its proper Hag, that the spectators might tell who were the winners of the races. As the afternoon approached the inhabitants of the city, to whom a sailors' regatta was a novel sight, took scarcely any less interest in the matter than the sailors themselves. The front of the river from One-hnndred-and-thirty-second to Seventy-second street, oil' and between which the course of the races iie. was lined with persons during the earlier morning. With every succeeding hour the number of spectators seemed to increase, .un(il the drive was eimply packed, as were also numerous excursion boats and craft of all kinds. The result of the day's sport was a great victory for Great Britain. Her tars carried off the honors, winning two of the three, and coming in a good second in the other race, whioh was captured by the Kussians. Picked crews from all the foreign men-of-war, except the Hollander Van Speyk, participated, and they made as pretty a series of races as has bea rowed on the Hudson. The course was between the lines of the men-ot-war. This gave the crews of the war ships an opportunity to cheer their miii as they rowed past und made the decks of the vessels grand stands from which the races were reviewed. Tho Chicago wis used as a judge boat und the finish was a line drawn from her to the French Hag ship Arethuse. The judges were on the Chicago. inn hacks. At 4 o'clock, when tho races were to begin, the Philadelphia, Newark. Atlanta and Chicago, of Uncle Sam's navy, had several thousand people on their decks waiting for the white boats far up the Hudson to come down the long course. A hundred steamboats, tugs and launches, loaded from deck to gunwale with people, surrounded the crews at tho starting point, and nearly as many more waited at the linish. It was 4:2.! p. m. when the first race was started. It was for ten and twelveoared cutters, double-banked thut is, two men rowing abreast and was three miles straight away. There were sixteen boats in line, and British, Kussian. Italian, French, Brazilian, German and Argentine crews were in it. They got away well together, and with the sunlight on their white boats and glistening from their oars as they pulled a long, stroke together, they cauio down the course. With them came a mob of screeching tugs aud steamboats loaded with yelling passengers. 1c was a grand flotilla and the sailors on the Columbian caravels stood on the elevated decks of t!iuir queer craft and looked on with umaemout. Tho lirsttwo miles ot the race were closely contested. The Cross of St. George ou the Uritona' best cutters swung a little to the fore, but the Frenchmen, Italians and Germans were on their quarter. All tho others were in a hunch just behind. Wheu the crews reached the Blake and it was seen that tho British bout led there was a cheering and a clapping of hands that could be heard a mile away and the British tars forged slowly ahead. The Italians alone stayed with them und a vecond Italian cotter and the German boat pressed them closely. The Englishmen roed like automatons. There were twelve oarsmen and a coxswain in each of the leading boats. The coxswain stood and threw himself forward with each stroke. Down past the lonr British ships and past the three Kussians the crew rowed. The pistol shot on the Chicago announced the linihh, and instantly the British boat banked oars, while all the tugs whistled and the bands played, "God Save the Queen.'7 and people on the decks of the men-of-war and pleasure craft yelled. and swung their hats. The crew from the liritieh ship Australia won in twenty-live minutes aud titty seconds. The crew from the llaliau flagship Etna was second, with the Italian crew from the Bausau next The ten-oared cutter of the Magicieiine, which came in fourth, got third prize by time allowance. The boats from the Tartar, Kaiserein Augusta, Jean Bart aud Blake werg together in a lump, and the other Italians. Germans. Frenchmen and Brazilians brought up the rear. The excitement had not abated when the galleys and the whaleboats of the second raco wero discovered coming down the course. The Kussians led by a short boat's length two British boats, and just back of them came the Germans. Brazilians and Frenchmen, with six boats in a bunch in the rear. '1 he finish was exciting, the people on the British aud Kussian ships doing their bent in the way of cheering to aid their respective crews. The crew irom the Kussian ship General Admiral won in twenty minute?, forty-five second?. The erewa of the lllake and Australia were almost side by side, two boat lengths in the rear of the Kussians. In the third race, which was two miles, only three British crews led all the way, with first one or the other of them ahead, and with two Italian crews crowding them closely. The crew from tho British ship Australia wonin seventeen minutes, thirtylive secouds, with a second crew from the dame ship second; a crew from the Blake thud, and the Italians from the Bausan, Eridano and Tartar last. The Americans were barred from competing, as their boats are lighter and superior to those of the foreigners. Kitger to Condense. Cincinnati Tribune.

ORDERED TO BE DEPORTED

Three Chinamen Arrested at New York for Violation of the Gary Law. Sentenced, After a Brief Trial, According to the Prearranged Plan of Tfsting the Act San Francisco Heathen Sullen and Defiant. New York, May 6. Three meek-appearing Chinamen, who have violated the Chinese exclusion act by failing to register as required by law. walked into United States Marshal Jacobus's office in this city this morning, aud were immediately placed under arrest. Their names uro Wong (Juan, a laborer, who lives at No. 4 Mott street, Lee Goe, a costumer. of No. 2012 Third street, and Fong Yne Ling, of No. 1 Mott street. They bad voluntarily surrendered themselves by advice of eminent lawyers, in order to test the constitutionality of the Chinese exclusion act. At 9 o'clock they were taken ipto the United States District Court, where Judge Brown was sitting, prepared to hear two of the cases. The, case of Fong Yne Ling was brought before United States Circuit Judge Lacombe. The case of Wong Qnan was first called. The chief lawyer for the Chinamen was Joseph H. Choate, and with him was Thomas D. Kiordan, the counsel for the powerful Chinese Six Companies, of San Francisco, which are defraying all the expenses of the test cases. Mr. Kiordan came here from San Francisco two weeks ago. United States District Attorney Mitchell appeared to prosecute. Through an interpreter Wong Quan admitted that he was a laborer, that he was a resident of the United Slates, May, 5, when the Geary act became a law. and that ho had not applied for a certiheate of residence, as required by the law, nor had he troubled himself at all about it, and he had no excuse to otl'er for not doing so. His lawyers appeared as anxious as Mr. Michell to have him adjnuged guilty of violating the law. and Judge Brown remanded him to the custody of the United States marshal, to be deported to China. Lee Gee's case was then called. It differed from Wong Quan's. inasmuch as his lawyers 6aid he was without the necessary certificate through "unavoidable cause." but was not able to prove so by any white person, nor was he able to show by any white person that he was in the country May 5, 1692. as the law requires. According to the Geary law, when a Chinaman applies for registration the collector of internal revenue may refuse to register him. unless he shows by reputable witnesses that he is entitled to the protection that registration guarantees. If at the end of the year ' the Chinaman still remains unregistered he is. liable to arrest, when he then must prove by at least one reputable "white" citizen that he resided in this country prior to the passage of the Chinese exclusion act. Lee Goe had applied to the internal revenue collector on April. 11, but was refused registration ou the ground that Gay Mamiema, the Chinese interpreter, whom Mr. Choate had officially designated as a "Chinese gentleman," was not, in the opinion of the collector, a reputable witness because he was a Chinaman. Judge Brown signed the papers for the expulsion of Lee Goe. The the third case, that of Fong Yue Sing, an Amercanized Chinaman, who wears neither blouse nor cue. was not taken before Judge Brown, but before Judge Lacombo, who also ordered the prisoner deported to China. In all three cases counsel applied to Judge ' Lacombe for a 'writ of habeas corpus, which was denied in accordance with tho prearranged plan of counsel on both Hides and counsel then gave notice of appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States. The three Chinamen were admitted to bail in 500 each, which was procured by representatives of the Six Companies. The 'afcee, -the- district attorney said, will be heard 4 by the Supreme Court in Washington next Wednesday. The proceedings were closely watched by Yung Koni. a member of the Chinese legation at Washington, and by Vice Consul Wing, of this city. San Francisco Chinese iu ft Sullen Moo 1. San Francisco, May C Collector of Internal Kevenne John C. Quinn, in an interview in regard to the Chinese registration law. says: "The Chinese aro acting very sullenly about this law. They have refused to register, and seem to think no actual steps can be taken to remove them. Jn fact they laugh at the idea of the law going into effect! They seem to think that the Chinese ' government will not permit its people to be removed from the United States. The Chinese have stated to mo that if the United States insists upon their departure alieetof Chinese battle ships may be expected at the Golden Gate at any moment. This indicates that among the lower class of coolies there exists a determination to resist the law, and that they expect their government to go to war it necessary to keep them in this country. If violence is not opposed to the olfieers when they are called upon to perform their duty, if the law is declared constitutional. 1 shall be much surprised." inquiry in Chinatown shows that the feara of Collector Cuinu aro well grounded. There exist among the Chinese a most sullen disposition, which has been inflamed by circulars issued by the Six Companies. Every circular issued has contained advice to the Chinese to resist the law. Yesterday another circular was issued calling upon the Chinese to stand lirmly on the eround tbey had taken and to prepare for a vigorous defense. At the otlice of the Six Companies it was stated that this simply meant that tho Chinese were not to become pauicf-tneken and register on tbo last day allowed by law. and that they were all to contribute their quota to the fund for employing lawyers to fight the law. There can he no doubt, however, that the Chinese placed a different construction upon the circular. Whereverthe circulars were posted tere were crowds of Chinese eagerly scanning every oharacter printed on them, and it wasevident they imagined the Six Companies were advising physical violence in resisting the law. United States Marshal Long was asked what he would do if violence should be offered. "I would use my best endeavors to quell any disturbance." said be, "and if my deputies proved inadequate I presume that General Kuger would be directed to eee that the law was upheld." "There will be no more trouble," said Vice Chinese Consul King Owjang. "The Six Companies will not advise their countrymen to shed blood. If the law is declared to be constitutional and no other legal defense presents itself the Chinese will obey the law and depart from this country. What my government would do in this event 1 am not in a position to state." Chinese Carrying Steamer Ctbeled. PoitTLAND. Ore..

Clarkson, president of the Kepublican National League, in speaking of the Kepublican gathering and conference at Louisville next week, said: "There are to be no factional lines or contests at Louisville. We go there, instead, to unify all Kepublicans. If there is a Harrison line in our politics or a Harrison faction, we shall be glad to welcome them, together with all Republicans. Ex-President Harrison was the first person I invited to attend and address the National League convention, and I made the invitation cordial and urgent. He replied in a courteous letter, expressing sympathy with the objects of the meeting, but saying he feared he would not be able to attend. 1 still hope he may come, and if he does we shall give him an old-fashioned Kepublican welcome. I have certainly no personal ambition to serve, nor any factional line to raise. Under no possible circumstances would I consent to accept re-election as president of the League, both because 1 have made business engagements that would absolutely forbid it and still more because 1 am in favor of putting new men and young men in these party places and thus bringing voung blood to the front and new elements into the party."

Experiment Station Ilulletlon, Out of fifty different varieties of sweet corn tested at the Purdue University experiment station, the following are recommended as being especially desirable either ibrmaraet or f amily use. Cory is one of the earliest varietiea grown, but is not recommended except for the first planting, as the quality is not of the best. Next to this in earliness is Marblehead, which is much better in quality as well as in productiveness. Minnesota matures at about the same time as Marblehead, and, although small, is Quite productive and of good quality. Huntington is a new variety, nearly as large as Egyptian, and ripens with the earliest. This will evidently prove a valuable addition to the list of early varieties. Crosby follows closely the early sorts and is of good size and quality, while Concord, maturing a little later, is large, productive, and one of the best in quality. Amber cream bears quite large ears, grains amber colored when mature, has a rich flavor and is altogether a very desirable sort. Honey sent out several years ago differs from other varietiea in .the purplish color of its stalks and leaves. It is large and of first class quality. Hickox improved follows those named above, and is a vigorous grower, very productive, produces large ears, and is of excellent quality. Stowell is still the favorite variety, and is probably planted more largely for canning than any other variety. It is one of the best, both in quality and productiveness. Silver Coin is another new variety, ripening about with Stowell, about the same in quality, and "remaining longer in edible condition." Ne Plus Ultra is a small variety with irregular rows, or rather no rows at all, but it is one of the sweetest and best for family use in the whole list. It matures with Stowell. Black Mexican is not a popular variety for the market on acconntot its dark color, but its quality plaoes it among the best for table use. The following five varieties are recommended for a succession: Cory, Concord, Ne Plus Ultra, Stowell and Black Mexican.

National Stockman. Gather the eags before they get chilled, keep in not too cool nor too warm a place in the light Torn them over once a day, that is. to the other aide irom the aide they lie on. Treated this way tbey will all be likely to hatch. Keep the eggs till tho hens all comuieL.ee to set. if it is not too Joust, then set your tamest hen with ten or fifteen eggs, and if yoa want the others to lay again yon will set the balance ot ectrs nnder chickens; bat the tnrkey hens wonld be the best, iryto get them all set the same week if yoa can. If your chickens have capes your turkeys will have them worse. '1 be best wayand it is a sure way is to keep them on a board lioor well covered. Have it made so that if the hen does get out the young turkeys can't, and trive tbem all to one tnrkey hen. Have foaror rive iDohes of old hayseed chaff all over the floor. If it is cool weather it must be kept as warm as possible, and if it is warm weather the sunlight mast pet in the greater part of the day. Keep them in till six weeks old, then when you put them ont choose a day that is not to hot or it will kill them. Watch them for the firet two or three days. Until they are quite a pood size when it comes t rain 1 always drive them np and pnt them in coop, and keep them id their coops till the dew is dried oil mornings. Until they are six days old feed nothing but this: Heat up three or four eggs like you would for custard in a pau. then add tour tablesDoonsiul oi sweet milk for each egg. then set in the baker. Don't cook; too fast or let it get "brown. This makes a-tougu food like custard, and after yoa have fed this for six or seven days mix corn bread with it until they get used to tho bread, then leave the custard out aud feed them bread for awhile. Then feed them just a little stnearcase, make it real wet. Change the last two named feeds as often as yoa can. Spread an old oilcloth or carpet on the chatl and no feed will be wasted or get dirty. He sure not to give water unless it is warmed, and not more than what would make one-half teaspoon f nl to each one. lint you can give them a Dint of warm sweet cream, and if they f.et

Set tomatoes in a warm, ennny place. Kith soil light and deep, but not too rich. Plant about three feet apart each way. and as they grow, watch carefully aod pinch off nearly all sido shoots, allowing only a few atronic ones to remain. As the plants grow, tie securely to stont stakes about three feet high. When they reach that height pinch oat the top to prevent further growth, and watch iideshootsmore closely than ever. Intbli way tbe remainder of the plant grows strong and vigorous, and bears its fruit in large clusters. One thus pruned, standing beside one nnprnned with other conditions the same, will bear half as much more fruit, of larger size and liner Haver, and will ripen more evenly and a week or ten days earlier than the other.
