WASHINGTON.
The Competition For the World's Fair.
l?y relegraph t the Morning Star.
Washington. Jan. 17. Great inter
est was taken in the votes upon the
World's Fair question in the House to
day. Members representing competing
cities were active in consolidating their
forces and keeping their men in line,
dozens of members kept tally and every
vote was closely scanned. The most
energetic of the Chieago men were Can
non. Mason. Lawier and Springer, The
Missouri troops were marshalled by
Hatch. Docker)-. Frank and Bland:
uhiie New York: interests were attend
ed to by Flower. Farquhar, and Cum
mings. The result of the contest is
that a special committee of nine mem
bers will be appointed, without receiv
ing any instructions. It may choose the
site it it sees tit; but it is more probable
that the determination of that question
wlii be re!erated to the House.
THE WABASH FLOOD.
The Waters Still Rising Hundred of
Families Driven from Their Homes.
Hy Te!e;rjph to the Morning Slar.
Evansvillk. Ind.. January 17. The
river at this point passed the danger line
or gauge at ! o clock last evening, and
is still rising at the rate of half an inch
an hour. The water is rapidly spread
ing over the bottom lands, and those
who have not already been driven from
their homes by the rising waters are
removing their families and stock. A
great amount of corn has been de
stroyed, and farmers having grain in
danger of being washed away are at
work with laborers placing it above the
high water mark of 184. The pros
pects now are that the water will reaeh
a much greater height than at any time
since the flood of that year. With a
rapidly rising river at this place, and ad
vices of an additional rise of the upper
Ohio and side streams, the situation is
anything but encouraging.
Officers of the steamer Blue Wing,
from Calhoun, which arrived here last
night, report the river rising at the rate
of two inches an hour. Hundreds of
families have been driven from their
homes, and many of them are living in
churches and school houses.
THE NEGROES.
Large Numbers Reported Moving Into
Oklahoma.
Tv Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Sr. Louis. Jan. 17. Letters received
by W. L. Eagleson, business manager of
the Oklahoma Immigration Soeiety in
Kansas, from points in North Carolina,
sav that a large number of negroes of
that State are going through in
wagons this winter to ihe new
territory. Eagleson says there are
now about 22,000 negroes in Oklahoma,
and that bv spring there will be at least
."".O.OOO. rfe claims that they ought to
have that country, and says President
Lincoln and the Republican party pro
mised to give it to them. He adds: "We
are determined to take it anyhow, and
we will make it one of the grandest in
the Union. I favor the scheme to pur-
chase the Cherokee strip and other
lands in Indian Territory, exclusively
for negro settlement. Give us the Blair
bill, the Indian territory, and Senator
Butler's five million dollars, and we shall
be content. Oklahoma, in my judgment,
is the land of promise for the race, and
migration the panacea for every ill affect
ing the negroes of the South.'
The west bound limited express train
on the Pennsylvania railroad struck and
killed Edward Gallagher, aged 17; Mi
chael Gallagher, his brother, aged 15,
ane Mrs. Kate Stockhouse, a married
lady,aged 26, at Morrisville, near Johns
town, Pa., last night.
BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE FOR THE
WEEK.
A General
Improvement Noted in all
Branches of Trade.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
New York, Jan. 17. An important
improvement in business is noted where
the recent change to colder weather has
been felt. Elsewhere, unseasonable
weather is still the chief complaint, but
everywhere the interruption of business
and manufacturing by prevailing sick
ness is observed, and many factories
have been forced to close because so
many of their employes were unable to
work. At one or two eastern points this
interruotion appears to be passing away
but it is still widespread and serious. To
nearly all kinds of trade it means not
only delay in the production or dealings,
but some shrinking in the ability of
great numbers to purchase products; but
in spite oi mis me voiumc
large.
The clearings of banks last week were
not onlv the largest on record for that
part of the year, but showed an increase
over last year oi i- per cent..
New York.
The cotton industry is disturbed only
by sickness. The demand for goods is
slightly improved ; staples and prints are
firm, and the wool and woolen trades
show distinct signs of division between
licrht poods and worsteds, and heavier
goods of nearly all kinds. The latter are
seriouslv depressed by unseasonable
weather, and the accumulation of stock
from the last open winter or purchased
mHv for this season but not yet dis
turbed. Many manufacturers of such
croods buv SDaringlv. work part of the
time or wait, and the kinds of wool
which they require are weaker. But
there is a marked revival in the trade
for Hnmpstir and liffht goods, due to
the change last year in Treasury rulings.
Now. for the first time, manuiacturers
are bnsy and hopeful; and the demand
for such wool as they can use is strong,
prices being firm.
Keports from various quarters are, on
the whole, more favorable. Mild weather
has caused much depression, but where
cooler weather has appeared there is
clear and quick recovery. Collections
are quite generally slow, because of re
tarded distribution, but uneasiness is re
ported at only a few points. All South
ern reports note an active trade.
Exports of cotton, provisions, on.
breadstuffs and cotton in December
were iH.il'.'.iii, against, oi.uw,.) m
1S89. which points to an aggregate of
exports exceeding $&4,000,000 for the
month, and again surpassing imports oy-
$26,000,000.
Foreign exchange has weakened to
4-86. and the treasury has taken in
for the week only $1,100,000 more than
it has paid out, but money markets show
on the whole rather more pressure, which
the heavy business in progress and tardy
collections explain.

CHICAGO REVIEW.
Fluctuations in Price of Grain and Provi
sions.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Chicago, January 17. A dull feeling
was developed in wheat to-day, and
while the opening was firmer there was
not sufficient life to the market to sus
tain prices, and a gradual easing-up in
values followed. Later he market be
came weaker, prices eased off gradually
EjC then held steady, but shortly
before the close broke off more, and
closed about Z?Hc lower than yes
terday. Corn ruled dull and neglected, trad
ing being smaller than at any time for
weeks past, and was confined almost ex
clusively to May. There was nothing
new developed of interest to operators,
about the only feature being the selling
of May by a prominent local trader, who
sold perhaps 2,000,000 bushels at 31 c.
I here was no change in oats. 1 he
receipts were again reduced uutil they
have become quite small.
Offerings in pork were light, and the
demand was limited. Shorts purchased
a few lots in a quiet way, and there was
no particular pressure to sell. Prices
were without material change.
Very little interest was manifested in
the market for lard. Offerings were
moderate, and the demand was light.
Prices exhibited very little change.
Fairly active trade was reported for
ribs, and the feeling was steadier. In
quiry was chiefly for May.
RAILROAD VVRLCK.
Several Men Killed and Others Injured.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Mansfield, Mo., January 17. A
terrible wreck occurred on the Kansas
City, Fort Scott & Memphis railroad,
about three miles east of here, yester
day. The engine of the west-bound
local freight train left the track, carrying
five loaded cars with it. It then turned
over, catching the engineer, Howland,
fireman Herman and brakeman Hughey
under it. Brakeman Widdoson was
caught in the wreck of the cars and
sustained severe internal injuries.
Fireman Herman was instantly killed.
Engineer Howland had one leg broken,
and brakeman Hughey was frightfully
scalded about the head and hands.

By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Boston, Jan. 17. Claflin. Coburn &
Co., boot and shoe dealers, 138 Summor
street, were burned out this morning.
The loss is between $150,000 and $200,
000; insurance $100,000. The building
was a four-story stone structure, belong
ing to the Boston University. Loss
$100,000, and fully insured. The con
tents of adjoining buildings suffered
some damage from water. The origin of

FOREIGN NEWS.
Portugal and "England Influenza Still
Spreading in England Portugese Repub
licans Denounce the British Ultimatum.
By Cable to the Morning Star.
Lisbon, January 17. The Seculo pub
lished to-day an unsigned manifesto,
headed, "The Directory of the Portu
guese Republicans to the Nations." It
denounces vociferously the English ulti
matum, and advocates a republican fed
eration of the Latin nations, and the ad
hesion of Portugal to such federation.
It declares that the movement for the
federation of a Latin republic is
steadily making great progress, and
that the force of that movement
is seen and felt in the revolution in Bra
zil. The manifesto does not advocate
revolution in Portugal at the present
moment, and is moderate in tone
throughout, except as to the denuncia
tion of England's action. All of the pa
pers Republican as well as others ad
vise prudence and moderation in the
present crisis. Extravagances of school
boys in street demonstrations seem to
have opened the eyes of the men of the
country to the folly and danger of that
way of treating international difficulties.
London, Jan. 17. Ihe opening oi
Eton College has been postponed owing
to the prevalence of influenza.
The influenza in a severe form pre
vails among the officers and crews of the
American Squadron of Evolution now in
the Mediterranean. There are 180 cases
of the disease on board the Chicago.
The influenza is spreading at Ports-
mintti- 9.nn pmnlnves in the dockyards
are absent from duty on account of it.
Paris. Tan. 17. The Figaro says that
Portugal has complained to Prince Bis
marck that Great Britain has violated
the Berlin treaty, she therefore asks that
a conference be convoeated to discuss
African affairs.
Lisbon. Jan. 17. The English resi
dents of this city, who have been victims
of the public animosity occasioned by
the attitude of England toward Portu
gal, propose to appoint a deputation to
wait on Lord Salisbury to urge that
Great Britain adopt a more conciliatory
policy, ihe feeling toward tngiana is
very bitter. Many English employes of
Portuguese houses have been discharged.
Madrid, January 17. The proposed
public meeting to be held in this city
on Sunday, by the Republicans, for the
purpose of expressing sympathy with
the Portuguese in their dispute with Eng
land, has been abandoned. The Repub
licans intend, however, to visit the Por
tugese Legation and leave their cards
expressions ot sympathy.

The NeYork Sun's Report of the Market
Yeaterday.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
New York, January 17. The Sun's
review of the cotton market to-day says:
Futures advanced 12 points, with
Liverpool up equal to about that much,
and buying here, while there was also
good buying by Germans, locals shorts
and others, the day being active and ex
cited. One small failure occurred. The
advance was about even, the spring and
summer months being strong. Some of
the Southern 6 pot markets were higher.
The South both bought and sold. Cot
ton on the spot was l-16c higher.
Wm. Gerline, a mulatto, aged 32, died
at Cincineati Thursday night in a fit of
sneezing. He had been suffering from
influenza only during the evening, and
about 11 o'clock was attacked with
sneezing, and died before relief could be
obtained.
