Written Expressly for tbe Sentinel. Nit Yokk, January 20. The decadence ol Wall street during the past few years has become proverbial in ttiJs town. It is a Teritable Sleepy Hollow. The lon narrow lace extending from Trinity Church to the East river has lost ail Its old time crowds, with their noise and enthusiasm, cd ia now almost as silent and deserted as the graveyard on the opposite side of Broadway. The ghosts of old speculators saunter up and down, only occisionallj dropping in on their brokers, and there enlv to i ass the time of day. glance at the tape and depart- The gentle, cotfiding, tiU8ticg "public" is missing, and resolutely refuses to answer the advertisements of the lately broker to the f fleet that he "will hetr cf somethirg to his advantage by applying at the said brokers expensively furnished parlors." K very inducement has been he:d out to this tame "public" to come in "on the ground floor," bat the tempted one teems to be satisfied where he u.j This sort of a thing hes been going on, with short -very ehort interval ever sicca Paresldent Garfield was shot, on July 2, Ibbl, Guiteau's bullet was the bissest bear argument Wall Street has ever known and the efJect of the raid, then instituted, have not yet disappeared. Everybody wis loaded with stocks and the prices sanfc like plummets. Uncertainly waa the brokers food for months. Then ensued a p?ricd of stagnation, followed by the excitement of another Presidential election, which, ia turn, gave way to a disastrous policy of agitation in C'ungresi over the tar: 3 ones Lion. When it was finally plain that there wcnld be no legislation on the subject, confidence returned and things locked bright, but the President's message stopped all that. The future now looks like a repetition cf the former uncertainty and stagnation until after the next election, at least. "What has the Steck Exchang, that conservaiive, high-minded body of financial giants, done to overcome these adverse circumstances? Have those mighty brains rushed to the rescue, and by strokes of genius evolved schemes that would defeat even fickle fortune? The best answer to thiB was given in the announcement a tew days ago that a eat in the Exchange had been sold for $18,000. And yet there were plenty cf members of that same Exchange who, wlen Uncle Ruf us Hatch disposed of his membership a few years ago for 30,000, shook their heads sorrowfully and exclaimed: "Poor old Kafus! Hemuätbe lc8ing his mind." He may have lost his head, but he didn't lose his money on that speculation. The seats have never told at that figure since. The Stock Exchange governors great men lay all the blame for their present pitiful condition upon the bucket shops and the Consolidated Exchange. Working on this plan, their first step was to order their members to sell the seats they owned in the Consolidated Exchange. Then all partners of members and clerks in the cfScea of members had to sell their interests in then "little" exchange. Still the boycotted exchange prospered, and seats trebled in value. Persecution made them friends, and several wi3e hea3s deserted the Stock Exchange and threw their fortunes in with the new one, the membership of which doubled within three years. A new exchange building is being erected, and it ia "gainst this that that the Scocfc Exchange has directed ita latest thunderbolt. It is in the shape of a resolution to the eifect that telegraph wires carrying the quotations of prices shall run into the new building. That means that no broker or banker can have an office in the new buildicg, for he would be without the necessities of his business. This picayune policy has been condemed by many of the moat influential men in the Stock Exchange as beneath the dignity of honorable business men striving for trade. The whole trouble lies in the fact that the Stock .Exchange has so long bad a morcpoly of the business that it cannot new recognize the Consolidated Exchange as a legitimate rival, and does not strive with it for business, but tries to kill it off. The consequences axe seen in these two state menta: Etock Eichau ge Seats, ........ lftss Consolidated Exchange Seats, " " lftSS. ro.ooo 1S.U0J S 253 1,50 Psst dullness; present stagnation; futureruin, And this is the Wall street of Jay Cooke, Daniel Drew, Commodore Vanderbilt and Jay Gould. But even Jay Gould has deserted it. "She led a double life," was the comment of more than one paper, which ou bucday recorded the death of a marnei woman, of Brooklyn, in a New York house of ill-fame one of the worst of them, too to which a friend of hers and of her family, lad taken her. None of them said, "They led a double life;" only she was mentioned. Full particulars as to who she was, her antecedents and her life tor years were raked up. fler connections with religious parnts acd other relatives were s:ated, but the papers almost unanimously permittel the mas to go in silence. He was soon ki own to the police, but as he had committed no crime, they did not want him, except as a witness at the inquest, and even the inquest was abandoned when It threatened to reveal the man's name. All this looks like grave lunatics. Does it not? Poesibly the man deserved instant exposure, but imagine the menial torments he must endure because not exposed ! He will live in constant dread of it. He will skulk whenever be meets the eye of a friend and suspects that that friend knows the truth. His life must be a continuous struggle to brave out the dicgrace that is constantly Inapendicsr. And, then, his wife ! what must he feel when the thought recurs to hiss, as it often must, that she suspects, even knows, or will some day know the facts? Borne of the double lives led by men and women in this city wocld make most extraordinary reicing if told in detail, and U told by the Police Captains who have imitated Inspector Bjrnts and turned anthers by proxy, and re contributing some mighty interesting fiction to the Evening World, a la Julian Hawthorne. A rich merchant of this city met, daring the tarrrrer, at Dar, Harbor tke young slater cf a now prominent actress and singer. The sister waa in poverty; the actresa is well supplied with thia world's goois. 3 if re were some domestic differences which the merchant undertook to heal a foolish undertaking as It turned out. as all interferences In the family affairs of others are apt to prove, the temporarily prosperous actress did sot desire a reconcf iiit n with the permanently poor slater acd the cfficei cf the philanthropist in this

direction were resented as insulting. A present sent at Christmas season had been regarded as insulting, and through a matoal friend the merchant learned of the cor struction placed on the matter. Another mutual friend attempted to explain matter?, and found that the merchant's efforts were absolutely futile; that no reconciliation was possible. The actress threatened to send tha present, which sbegpretended to resrardaa losulticg, to bis wile, but learned that the hdy 7;aa aware of ita beinprsent. Then she resolved that she would nail his card to the top of the box containing the gift and send It to his club, "a very unwise proceeding for a lady before the publ:c ;o uudertake," was the opinion expressed by a frieud. "Ihe Union is a very large club of very rich mrn of society. They vri.l ridicule their fellow member, but they will hardly regard you with esteem or even reepect." These argumtntB prevailed, and the gift wai returned to the Eender, and then the actress tat down to tell the story to another prominent club man and theatrical manager, who quietly has it printed in Town Topic?, thus finding for herself an excuse for quarreling with the donor on the eve of her departure on a long tour, and the injudicious access, by giving publicity to what she regarded as a good joke, has provoked inquiry as to her past career by the merchant, and another double life may yet have to be told. Donble lives ! They are far more common than the pure and simnle ones in this city, so

A short time ago a yacht called the Huarla'was mysteriously fitted up in this city. Quite as mysteriously she took her Sj ?r r departure, and she is now probably at her destination, one; of the rlorida reefs. There is a curious and romantic story con nected with her, which, whether true or false, wi 1 bear telling, and the sequel of wticu, whether reriousor laughable, will be icimstirg when it comes. Its moral t.' e eagerness with which the most cauMous m n will go into speculations apparently without substantial basis. A physician of Sn Francisco appeared here . yctr or two ago and told this story, but told it in detail. He had befriended a very sick fellow-passenger on a Pacific Mail steamer, and at San Francisco attended him on his death bed. In bis last moments the mm told this stcrj : "When a boy he had been captured by pirates in the West Indies seas and impressed into their service. He gave the name of the vessel and of several which had been captured, pillaged and burned. On .one occasion two of the pira'e's crew had been killed. Their bodies were taken ashore at a place be described and buri-d with a number of bags of captured gold, the geld being placed beneath trie bodies. On be very nert craue the pirates were captured bv a British gunboat, the name of whic'i he gave. All were executed at the jardrjm. exwpt the boy who pleaded that he was iaipmted. He was released after long dHy and a trial in England. He came to America, and died as stated. The pbysician was so impressed with the story that he weit to Florida and found the spot, the bodies and the geld; but he had no mean3 of removing the treasure. He returned with this story and got a syndicate of lawyers to join him in fitting out the "Maria," and she has sailed to get that gold or otherwise. The lawyers in this scheme are solid, reputable members of the profession otd usually very cautious. I can not give the names other than that of A. H. Purdy, late Assistant Distrist Attorney of this county. Wm. F. G. Sharks. Stolen Fropeity Kecoveretl. Chicago, January 19 A dispatch from Albany, N. Y., yesterday stated that a detective had returned from Chicago and made a report upon the bonds stolen from the First National Bank, and which It said had teen traced to a well-knownC'aicago man. Only limited informatfon can be obtained about the case here as yet. A reIorter tor the Inter Ocean called on the Chief of Detectives and learned that one of his men had been working in the ca3e in connection with the Albany detective. The bonds were Albany City water bonds 8nd Chicago and Grand Trunk railway bonds, valued in all at $22.000. They were stolen from the Albany Bank about eizht months a$o in broad daylight by a sneak thief. The owner was in the bank at the time aDd had been looking them over. Chief Heashaw said that he had learned that after sometime had elapsed the bonds had been brought to Chicago. "You ha 1 better go and see Mr. Gage, of the First National Bank" he added. "He knows all about thfm; they were placed in his bank, Mike McDonald can teh you all about it. He placed the bonds there. They have all been red tf med and are in ib j hands of proper owners." "Did you le&r i how Mr. McDonald got possession of t. 9 bonds.?" "Yep, he pot them from a frier; 1 of his." The reporter then called on Mr. McDonald and was told that the bonds were placed in the First National Bank about the 2d of November. The Bank officials learned for the first time on Thursday last that the bonds were stolen property, through the Albany detective. Mr. McDonald positively refused to give any further information, and Mr. Gage would have nothing whatever to say. Republicans and the War Tax. Washisgtos, D. C, January 19. Special. "Nature abhors a vacuum," and it is equally true that the Republican fossils of the past twenty-five years abhors a change. The war tax was created by them, acd this is an irrresistable argument to their minds that it Bhould not be changed. They are proclaiming, in and out of Congress, to their sons: "Why, your father created the war tax to support the Government, and now, my sen, will you not sustain that action?" It matters not whether the Government needs the money or not. but on the principle of our grandfathers, who put a stone in one end of the sack to balance the half-bushel of corn in the other, when they went to mill, we must vote to retain th- war tax, or be denounced as "free-traders.' This is about the size of the position taken by the leaders of the Republicans in and out of Congress. Tha fact that $10,000,000 monthly is being taken from the people more than la needed to run the Government, matters not to thsca, and if you say stop taxing the people this amount, and let them keep it in their btuiness, we are met with the cry of "free trade." For the truth of this the young men of the country need only read what tte Republicans say of President Cleveland's message. Another Lady lUaber Swindle. NoRRifTGwir, January 19. Miss Mary A. Brown, a maiden lady, residence in Norristown, and possessed of considerable property, has been swindled out of $30,000 by a Philadelphia woman who made investments for women. She conducted a "ladies bank" and promised large returns for every dollar invested. Miss Brown said she had known the woman, whose victim she is, since childhood and had great con fidence In her. On Monday she was to receive a large sum of money from the Philadelphia woman ass return on her investment. The money did not come, and Miss Brown wrote to her. She replied that all business between them waa at an end and that no more letters would be answered. This was startling information to Miss Brown. Infatuated with what she had supposed to be a sure and speedy method of obtaining a fortune, she had borrowed money from all her friends in order to invest it witn the Philadelphia woman. She has employed counsel to prosecute the Philadelphia woman, but her lawyer says it would be impossible for Miss Brown to recover. Death at a Ripe Old Age. LiwieviLLK, January 20. 8pectal 1 Joseph Baird, er., died last night of pleurisy of the heart He was one of the oldest cit iensof this town, living to the age of seventy-nine years. The funeral will take place to-morrow.

TRAIN ROBBERS FOILED.

Ofiictrs Get Wind of a Scheme and Prevent Its Coniumation St. Lorifl, January 19. Train robbers were foiled last night in an attempt to rob an express tram of the Wabaah Western road at Cooleys Lake, twenty-four miles east of Kansas City. The regular Kansas City-St. Louis express train No. 4 left Kansas City at the regular hour, 8:20 p.m. It was in charge of W. O. Beetle, the regular conductor. When the train stopped at Missouri City, on the platform of the little station was a band cf men with shot guns. The conductor was informed that they were under command cf an official of the county who had received word that an attempt would bs made to rob the St. Louis express at a lonely spot, a little less than two mile3 east of MisEouri City. One of the officers got in the cab of the engine with the engineer and foreman, and the others distriouted themselves through the train. Cooley's Lake, a fishirg resort, one of the lonlieet points cn the road in winter lime, was the place where the attack Wis to be made. None of the passangers of the tram were notified of the danger. At 9:30, as the point of attack was nsared, a red light was seen gleaming ahead. As the train Elowed up the ecglreer eaw three masked mea armed with rifles standing on the track. "Get off there," said the leader of the three men to the engineer. Morsey climed down out of the cab. Just as he reached the ground the offi:er in the cab pointed his shot gun out of the wind:w and fired. Whether he hit the leader of the band of robbers or not he could not afterwards tell ; both he and the engineer were of the opinion that he had. As oa as the shot was fired he and Money dropped down out of sight. The snot from tha c ih was answered with shots fro.ii f io guns of the three robbers, which rattled about the engine but did no harm. The three men retired in a demors'izad state. As they moved back a part of the posse came up from the wooJa, where they had been in concealment for some time, and opened fire on them. These men had been sent out from Missouri City in advance of the train and had concealed them selves, to be ia readiness whenever they should be needed. About twenty shots were exchanged, the men on the train joining in the pursuit. The pos9 continued in pursuit of the band, and when tha train reached Moterly there wa3 a report tht two cf them had been captured by the oliicers, but that in the Biruggie one of them had been killed. The robbers are known to bs farmers living in the reighborhood of Missouri City. One of them is said to have been a member of the James gang at one time. A telfgram to General Manager Hays from Division Superintendent McGee S3y9 that all the would be robbers have been captured. Three of them were overtaken by the posse, and the fourth, Barney Sweeney, the leader, who stopped the train, and who received a heavy load of shot in the breast from the gun of the man concealed in the engine cab, wis found in the woods where he hi cravie 1 after being wounded. The plot waa given away by one of the gang named Ktn, who told 6 rant Arnold, elation agent at Missouri City, what was going on. Arnold, in turn, informed the Sheriff of Clay county, and the latter officer immeduteiy organized a posse. Arnold was one of the po3e, and it was he who sbot the leader from the cab. King remained with ths ging and signaled the train to stop, but took no active part in the arfair. Sweeney is said to be dangerously wounded. He ha9 a long record of crime ia this State, ard is considered one of the worst men in Missouri since thi days of Jesie and Frank Jamos gang of outlaws. Ha was o member of that band of desperadoes. Ke has been tried for killing t co men, but in come way got clear. In one case he shit a man sitting on a fence "just to see hiai drop," and in the other case he killed a man on a Missouri Pacific train, near Vinita, about five years ago. He recently served a term cf two years in the penitentiary for attcmptiDR to blackmail out of $2,500 the late Colonel A. A. Tal mage, General Manager of the Wabash Railroad. Thomas Fnrlong, chief of the secret service of the Missouri Pacific, says..Sweeney is the meanest and most despicable villain that he ever met. John King, who gave the gang away, is a young man of Missouri City, and says he was forced to join the band against his will, and gave the railroad officials information of the scheme two weeks ago. FAITH CURE EXCITEMENT. Many People In Beading Declare Them selves Healed by the Lord. Readikg, Pa., January 20 "I'm healed, I'm healed, and thanks to God," cried out Adam Shower at the faith cure convention here yesterday afternoon. He had tuCered from spine disease. The large congregation was excited and in tears. His two sisters who had been Buffering from the same complaint, and who had fainted before the altar in great mental excitement, returned to a conscious condition and fell Into each others arms, weeping and rejoicing. They declared that they were healed by the wonderful power of the faith cure. John Fawl, of Chambersburg, and Abel Strawn appealed in a loud voice to Heaven to send down its healing power. Suddenly a lady in one of the front rows fainted, Mr. Trumbower then made the air ring with his invitation to all suilerers to come forward and be healed by their faith in the grace of God. Miss Cora Ritter, of Bethlehem, who had lost her voice for seveval years, advanced to the altar and then fell sobbing to her knees. Kosanna and Emma Shower, afflicted with rheumatism were then led to the altar. The choir 6ang and the ministers formed a circle about the suSerera and prayed loudly and Incessantly, and were joined, not only by the penitents, but by scoies of their relatives, who clapped tueir hands exultingly and called on the Lord to hear their prayers. The ministers exhorted the peorle to remain steadfast in their faitb, as God hadpromiaed to heal them in bis holy Word, and he could not go tack on bis promise. Then Miss Ritter arose, clapped her hands and uttered a prayer aloud, and facing the altar, she exClaimed " My voice has already been restored. Glory to God." Shower had hobbled to the altar supported by a cane, but Le bravely walked toward his excited singing, praying friends alone and unsupported, as did his sisters behind him. A number of other women were then led forward, accompaled by their friends. They were received with hymns of welcome, and once more the circle was formed. By this time the entire congregation were on their feet, tbe people craning their necks to see the finishing of tbe strange ceremony. Above the voices of the singers could be heard the supplications of the ministers and the eobs of the penitents. Then the friends of the afllicted pressed forward, with clapping of hands and hymns and prayers. Scores of people wept as tbey saw the applicants for cure arise and sing o ut : "Glory to God ; we feel, oh, so much better." There was more tinging and raying, and then the audience dispersed. The same scenes were repealed last night. So great Is the rush that the church may be kept open to-day. Wants 010,000 Damages. Frakkfokt, January 20. Special. The case of Newlin against Tyner, which came bere on a change of venue from Tipton County, has occupied the attention of the court aU week. Both parties are ably repres nfed, the plaintiff by Hon. J. V. Kent ard Messrs. Kemp and Waugb, and the defendant by 8. O. Bayless, It. B. Beaucamp and the firm of Gifford & Tippon. The plaintiff seeks to recover $10,000 as damages, alleging that tha defendant had alienated tbe affections of his wife, and further, that he has been guilty of crim eon. The plaintiffs wile died elnce the begin

ning of the action, and the matter of proving the fntimaey is a very difficult one. yuite a number of experts have baen examined as to the genuineness of certain letters alleged to have been written by the defendant to the plaintiff's wife. The defendant is sixty-eix years of age and his hair white as wool.

THE NATIONAL SURPLUS. It Blast be Kedaced Tbo Tax on Sugar What It Means. Waseikgtojt, January 19, Special. The carrion bird is said to be a blessing to mankind, and it may always be found where the pulrifyirg carcass is. The carcass in this city is tne surplus in the National Treasury, and the birds of prey exist in every form of monopoly. This surplus is a menace to business stability, and has been gathered from the people without right, tnd fearing the indignation of public sentiment, the vultures are devising all kinds of means to reduce the surplus rather than to relieve the people from the needless taxation that haa produced it. One of these schemes is that of New Hampshire's Senator, Mr. B'alr, which is labeled, "$79,CC'0,000 to be divided between the States for school purposes." Another pet hobby wi:h'many Republicans is that proposed ty B.'aine, to divide the surplus to the States for the use of the same in the State governments. Other Republicans, after tbe fashion of John Sherman, think that the drain from the pockets of the people that has created, and is still creating this surplus at tbe rate of ten millions per month, might be stopped by reducing the revenue on whisky. There are still others who urge large appropria ions for naval defenses, river and harbor improvements, and hundreds of other schemes to expend the surplus. Yv'hat does all this meaa? is the question asked by tbe Western farmer. It means keep the tariff tax on the Americaa people that is annually taking out of their pockets $100,000.000 more than is needed to run the Government. The more we read President Cleveland's Message and study this Question the more apparent it is that the monopolies and hieb, tariff beneficiaries 8re brought face to face with the people and that it is a light in which the people, will ultimately win. Seeiug this, we have the reason for all the soiemes now proposed by the leading Republicans of the East to reduce the surplus. 2The war tariff has been on sugr for nearly a querrer of a century. The poor grade of sugar from the tank bottoms Is taxed 1.4 cents per pound. Sugar for table nse is taxed from 2'H to Z)i cents per pound, according to grade. Bjfore the protective craze seized upon the KDnb!icii party this country produced 500,000 tons of sugar, R9 shown by the reports no on file in the departments here. Tnese same reports ehow tbat last year we produced less than 140 COO tons. These recordj also saow that we Cöiisamed in this country list year, over 1 400 000 tons of sugar. Take from this the 130,000 tons produced, and we have 1,K'.0,C00 tens as the amount of saar imported to this country, on which the American people paid from 1 4 cents to ZV- cents' per pound tariff tax. We find, furthtr, that no reSned sugar is imported but tte low grades. There are eighteen sugar refineries in the United Stales, all in favor of keeping the tax on sugar. Why? Last yenr these refineries exported nearly 3X) 000,000 pounds of refined sugar, on which tbe Government paid back n rebate of 3.18 cents per pound. Besides this, they are enabled to get from 2 to 3 cents more per pound for their refined suftr from their consumers in this country by reason of the tariff daty. Yet, with this "eros-i iniustice. Senator Sberruan, of Ohio, and his party associates. are not willing to take the tax off of suar without providing a bonus to be paid to these fellows out of the United States Treasury the money of the peopift. Can the voters be deceived by oacb. a scheme? The tax on sugar ia now a bonui to the Importers and refiners, and to chanjra the form of giving these monopolies that bonus by paying it directly out of the Treasury of the Government will not relieve the people. Weddings Tax Delinquents Uylnc.IEtc. Symovke, January 20. iSpecial.j Mr. Frank Hancock, a prominent young and promising attorney of this city, and Miss KtlHe Bchlenker, a beautiful young lady of Bridgeport, 111., were married Wednesday evening at the bride's residence. The happy couple arrived here last ninht. Judge Collins has not yet reduced the bond of Bice, Mason and Stewart, now in jail, and has set their trial for the fourth Monday of the term, February Ith. There are two. hundred and fourteen tsxdelinquents In tlis county, of 2s,000 souls. Mr. August Claybaker, of Page County. Iowa, end Miss Anna Bosse, a beautiful and highly intelligent young lady of this county, were married at the Saner Lutheran Churcb, eight miles south of this city, yesterday, Rev. Polack officiating. It was one cf the largest soe'ety events that has occurred in this cour ty for years. The groom was raised near this city, but went to Iowa several years ago, where he is extensively engaged in farming, and is among tbe most esteemed and influential German citizens out there. They will leave for his heme toon. City Treasurer D. A. Johnson is lying very low with consumption, and can live but a few hours. A rousing meeting in the interest of the Seymour and Southwestern road was held in this city last night. A party of observation, composed of live business men and capitalists of this county and Ohio, will will start over the proposed line on Monday next Every indication points to the beginning of work on the line in the early spring. Tbe Awful Death Roll. Et. I'Ar L.January 20, An evening paper figures the loss of life in last week's blizzard at 235.
