Th Sens' could hardly hare "pre-

ptiblican side of the chamber there
were not hall a dozen seats occupiea

two or three. Three of the possible
residential candidates Shermari Al

third , of the Republican Senators
present, but they did not remain ong
in any one place, moving arcufld in
fcnd out of the chamber as u the r
thoughts were elsewhere. . There:
were about a score 01 JJemocr vie
Senators in their seats but they
did not seem to have
any interest in legislative nutters.
Two bills aneccing Indians were read
and passed, and then the calendar
imi taken up and bills to which1 no

among them the following: HotiBe

r
OTHXB, KIWS.
By Telegraph to the News and Observer.
Chicago, III., June 18- The skir
mishing preliminary to the great bat
tle which will be formally opened in
the convuution was unusually active
and agg. essive in the hotel corridor!
this mo ning. At an early hour
groups of politicians were congre
gated in he lobbies, talking over the
situation, and though there was noth
ing definite which he friends of any
candidate could use as a basis for
their enthusiasm . predictions and
counter-predictions were loudly and
vigorously indulged in: The doors
of the headquarters of the various
State delegations stood invitingly
: open and within eager badge-bedecked
gentlemen stood ready to seize upon
any passing delegate and imprest
upon him tho desirability, if
hot the absolute necessity, of
the Republican convention nomina
ting this or that favorite son in ordct
to bring assured success at the polls
in November next.
At an early hour the decks of the
owa headquarters were cleared for
action and Gen. Henderson was soon
pn the scene directing operations.
The announcement of Depew s can
didacy seemed but to have invigora
ted the Allison forces. They predict
(hat this convention in its present un
certain condition is a peculiarly aus
picious one for the "reserve" candi
dates, of whom they say their favo
rite is the strongest.
The Republican national commit
tee met at noon to select a temporary
chairman for the convention. M.
M.-Estee, of California, and John M.
Thurston, of Nebraska, were the only
names presented! The vote was a
tie. Chairman Jones cast the de
ciding rote in favor of Thurston. The
nomination was then made unani
mous, j
In the matter of the contesting del
egations from Maryland it was de
cided to lay the whole subject upon
the table. The result will be to ad
mit the regular delegates recom
mended by Gary, a member of the na
tional committee from that State.
The Virginia contest involving the
seating of sixteen anti-Mahone dis
trict delegates were reopened by
Blair, of Virginia, moving for a re
consideration, j
'Messrs. Elkins and Lawson, of New
York, joined in opposing strenuously
any reconsideration wnatever
The reconsideration was defeated
by a vote of 26 to 11.
'When the action of the committee
on temporary chairmanship was an
nounced the Californians, thoroughly
unused to defeat, were simply dumb
founded. : Their opponents, however,
were not lees surprised, the closene
off the vote being almost wholly un
expected.
-The concensus of opinion from the
people in tne corridors was tnat lur.
Estee would have won on hiB
position as an anti-monopoly
candidate, but the friends of
top many favorite candidates fot
this Presidency would; be largely
against sucn pronounced recognition
off an out and out Blaine delegation
aa the men from the Pacific slope. It
was a verdict which i secured a reac
tion against the Californians too pre
viously shouting for Blaine. The Chi
cago men, who will make the nomt
nating speeches, have been decided
upon. At the caucus ot the New
York delegation today it was decided
that Depew should be Dlaced in nOm
ination by ex-Senator Warner Miller, of
New York. The speech, in second
ing the nomination, Will probably be
made by (leneral Knapp, although
the delegation has not decided den
nitply whether to have a seconding
speech or not.
Sherman will be nominated by D. H
Hastings, Adjutant General of he
State of Pennsylvania. Gov. Forakerj
of Ohio, will second the nomination.
The speech placing Mr. Alger, of
Michigan, in nomination will be made
by Bobt. E. Frazier. of Detroit. W.
Hepburn, of Clarmda, Iowa, will
nominate Senator Allison of that
State. Mr. Harrison's nomination
will be in the hands of ex-Gov. A. G.
Porter, of Indiana. The name of
Mayor Fitler, ofrhiladelphis, will be
placed in nomination by Charles
Emery Smith, of the Philadelphia
frees. : l here will be no seconding
speech.

New Xm Commercial aod Financial Chronicle
Fkidat Night, June 15, 1888.
There has been comparatively little
speculation, and in most commodities
Only a moderate legitimate business,
though the more seasonable weather
has caused some in ere see in the hitter
direction, more , especially f howeverj
in the retail and jobbing trades. The
Speculative fluctuations have been in
fluenced by reports of the critical
condition of the Emperor of Ger
many. : The grain trade has been un
favorably affected by the new law
which materially reduces the charges
of tha elevator companies here, and
which is therefore regarded as. preju
dicial to the export business in grain
at this port.' The prospects are rather
more favorable for the crops in this
country. The effect of the Emperor
Frederick's death, which occurred
this morning, had been discounted in
commercial circles.
Lard on the spot has been very
dull, but prices have been fairly well
maintained, closing dull at 8.15o for
prime city, 8.75a8.80c for prime to
choice Western, 8.60c for refined to
the continent and 9 75c for refined to
South. America. The speculation in
lard for future delivery has' continued
ioggiah, prices making slight fluc
tuations, being dull today, witn an
unsettled closing.
Pork has been dull and drooping;
mesa $14al5-25 for old and new; extra
prime, $1013-25; clear f lb.aii. i o.
Cutmeats have been more active, nut

fairly active at $15.50al5.75 per bbl.;
Tallow in good demand at 4a4 3 16c
Stearine is quoted at 10c, Oleomar

good demand at 17a21& for creamery
and 14al6o. for Western factory.
CheeseHs fairlv active at 7ia8?c for

Coffee on the spot has been dull.
but toward the close the inquiry im
proved, and sales to-day. embraced
No. 4 Rio at 112c and No.tf do. at
lire, with a brisk business in mild
grades. : The speculation in Rio op
tions was at declining prices until
late in the week when there was some
reaction.:
Riw sugars wefe dull until y ester
day when a cargo of Iloilo sold at
3 15-lGc, and to-day a cargo of Trin
idad, 88 deg. test, at 4 ll-loc, Uen
trifuffal. 96 deg. test., quoted 5ta.,
duty paid. Rehned sugars nave been
fairly active, and low grades slightly
advanced. Molasses was dull and
weak, and to-day a cargo Bold at 19c
for Philadelphia. The tea sale on
Wednesday showed weakness in val
ues, especially in Japans ; and nor
mosa oolongs.
Spirits turpentine has declined to
86c., with rather more activity at the
close. Rosin has been fairly active at
decline to $l15a$1.20 for common
to good strained. -. ' r
lhe speculative transactions in
cotton for future delivery at this mar
ket have still kept within narrow
limits and the fluctuations have been
sluggish, though generally in the di
rection of higher prices, lsuils stui
cite the decrease in the visible supply
and the large consumption as faotors
favorable to a rise, while then: oppo
nenis point to the still liberal stocks
at the South, and the large interior
and seaboard , movement ; of the
crop. The publication ; oi tne
acreage and condition report
caused a slight advance here
and a sharp rise in Liverpool,
Dut private1 dispatches indicating that
the conditions have improved since
June 1 caused some realizing. On
Monday there was a small advanoe in
response to si rise in Liverpool, but it
was partly 4ost owing to further real
izing and the continuation Of tne sell
ing on Tuesday caused a ; moderate
decline, due also to liberal receipts at
the ports and favorable crop advioes
On Wednesday a decline in Liverpool
caused a further fall in prices here,
which was partly recovered on the
Eublication of Ellison's statistical ex
ibit, which was somewhat favorable
to the bulls, and on reports of colder
weather at the South, especially cold
nights in Texas. On Thursday an
unexpected rise in Liverpool led to an
advance here, though later in
the day there was some reaction,
owing to a rather weaker market in
Liverpool, more favorable : crop ad
vices And continued realizing. Today
there was an early decline, owing to
an easier market in .Liverpool, but
when prices rallied there, the market
hero recovered the early decline, en
oouraged also by a pretty good de
mand on the spot, and a decrease in
the interior movement . Cotton oh
the spot has been more active, mainly
for home consumption, though busi
ness for export has been lair, ine
offerings have been less liberal, and
pricess advanced l-16c on Monday,
and good middling was- 1-lCo dearer
on Thursday. Today there was a fair
business at firm and unchanged quo
tations, middling uplands closing at
100.
The figures indicate decrease in
the cotton in sight tonight of 252,484
bales as compared with the same date
of 1887, a decrease of 323,401 .bales as
compared with the corresponding
date of 1886 and a decrease ol 255,784
bales as compared with 1885.
The totals show that the old inte
rior stocks have decreased daring the
week 8,049 bales and are tonight
46.584 bales more than at the same
period last year. The receipts at the
same towns have been a,w bales
more than the same week, doing no
harm except interrupting work.

Potsdam, June 18. Prince Bis
marck aad a number of foreign
princes arrived here this morning.
The railway stations at Berlin and
Potsdam are closed against the pub
lic. A crowd is gathered outside
these buildings and soldiers and po
lice are posted all around the stations
to keep back the crowd. The Fred-
erickskron Palace is' guarded like a
fortress. At 9 o'clock the bells were
tolled and the ministers who were to
officiate at the Emperor's funeral
took their pi ices around the coffin in
the palace. The choir sang the hymns
"Soon Thou Callest me to Higher
Joys" and "Jesus is my Trust.
Chaplain Koegel blessed the corpse
and mourners, after which the choir
sang the hymn "If I am to Die." The
commanders of the twelve regiments
of which the late Emperor was the
chief officer carried the coffin to the
hearse. Eight majors then took the
horses by the bridle and the proces
sion started for the church.

The performance to be given by
The Kaa Geza Band" next Thurs
day night will be a highly interesting
and artistio concert. There is no
musio bo fascinating as that of the
Gypsy. The real Gypsy music, as
rendered by this Quartette, comes
from the heart and goes to the heart.
There is something distinctive and
quaint about it. - They use no notes
wnatever, whether it be Italian njus c,
difficult German overtures, or their
singular "czardas" as their national
songs are called which they may be
called upon to produce; and for this
reason the marvelous accuracy, vigor
and force, which are marked charac
teristics of their playing, seem more
remarkable. Reserved seats can be
sectred at MacRae's drug store. The
prices are 25c , 50a, and 7 Sc.

The report comes from Chicago, in
line with what has been hinted t be
fore, that the Greaham and Harrison
forces have formed a compact, by the
terms of which the friends of either
are to go to the support of the other
whenever their favorite is out of the
fight. The Gresham men have suffer
ed a shock in the outspoken declara
tion of one of their "pledged " Illi-;
nois delegates W. E. Kent that he
is in favor of Mr. Blaine's nomina
tion. Kent represents anIrish con
stituency. Mr. Brainard, the editor of the
Philadelphia Areu$, is quoted from
Chicago as declaring for Uresham and
asserting' that if Gresham is nomi
nated Philadelphia will contribute
$250,000 to his campaign fund.
