By Telegraph to the Morning Star. 1 Washington, Aug. 15. Secretary Foster made the following statement to-day in regard to refunding operations and the financial situation generally: "About $18,500,000 of 4 per cent. bonds have been extended and applica tions have been received covering about two and a half millions: more. What the final outcome may be, of course, I do not know. It is probable that aeon siderable portion of the balance ($30,000,- 000) will be extended, It will be no hardship to the Treasury to be called upon to pay those not extended, In fact, such ; paymentr will add by the amount paid in money in the hands of the people. By extension we succeeded in preventing decrease of National bank notes; and in fact have so far increased their circulation nearly nve millions. : The outlook is that con siderable more of the increase will be effected. . I am not finding fault with the action of the banks, as might be in terred from recent publications. I saw Mr. Sherman at Mansfield. I . always find it profitable to-discuss money mat ters with him. I do not recall a single disagreement rbetween us. The state ment telegraphed from Mansfield re garding our conference is pure romance, While there is less money in the Treasury than for many years past, it is in a comrortaoie condition. Because of less money in the Treasury it follows that more money than ever before is in the hands of the people, thus facilitating tne conduct oi tne ousmess of the coun try. We are on a gold basis, and there is no occasion lor alarm as to the ability of tne xovernment to maintain or in crease the present reserve of gold. I may add that Mr. Sherman freely agrees witn me regarding the legal power of the Secretary as above expressed. I do not see any occasion for the exercise of this power, but 1 do not hesitate to say, should occasion arise, I shall not tail to use it.

St. Cloud, Minn., Aug. 15. Yester day's storm proves to have been much more serious than at first supposed. Hail first began to fall when the storm, which came from the north, reached Samuel Gilman's farm, about" . three miles northeast of Sank Rapids, and from there almost to Elk river, in the extreme southern portion of Sherburne county, a distance of about forty miles, it was a perfect furv. In Rpntnn' its width varied from half a mile to one and a half miles, and as it began to spend its force it broadened outtoabout xour mues wide.

LATE FOREIGN NEWS, GERMANY REFUSES TO REDUCE GRAIN DUTIES. j , . - . -.i ; , The Qovemment Belies on America to Sup ply the Deficiency. Copyright 1891 by the N,Y. Associated Press. Berlin, August 15. Despite positive assurances to the contrary,' it was gen erally hoped that the Cabinet meeting announced for this afternoon would re solve on some reduction of jcorn duties. It was hoped that the influence of Min ister Miquel, who still strongly urges a reduction, would have the effect ot per suading his colleagues to consent to such measures. ;! , The result of ministerial deliberations, as announced this evening in the Reich sauge, shows that although the govern ment's decisions are modified, still they are determined not to reduce corn duties until absolutely compelled to do so. 1 he Keichzanzrijer says, that in view of unfavorable prospects, owing to wet weather, prohibition of exportation of rye from Russia, the government has decided as an experiment to reduce the freight rates on corn and mill cereals over State railways by making a sliding scale, lhere is no alteration ot rates on freights going lesser distances than zou kilometres, Put great concessions for longer distances. Reductions apply to rye, wheat, barley, oats, pulse, Indian corn, wheat, flour and pulse shell. Al though . this concession will increase facilities of transport to the distressed provinces, their want is the decreased stocK ot gram. Advices irom various parts of the country show that large importations of grain will be imperative ly needed. j The Government evidently relies on America to supply the deficiency, but the public, and especially wdrkingmen. are not so easily satisfied as to that. The Radical pressUn attacking the Gov ernment, dwells on the probability that the corn syndicates of America are not likely to show much consideration to Germany, it by withholding their grain they can force the markets and get their own price. f Letters from Vienna also indicate that although the official relations of Austria and Germany are of the most cordial character, private individuals are not disposed to sacrifice probably excep tional business prohts to mere sentiment. Grain merchants are elated at the con tinual advance of grain here. lhe enormous surplus of Austria- Hungary it is expected will all come to Germany, promising to exporters there the biggest profit in many vears. 1 he Socialists are not letting the grass grow under their feet in taking the full est advantage ot the gloomy situation to actively push the propaganda. Since they obtained greater freedom, there has been a notable reduction in the number of their constituents, which re cent internal dissensions have not ten dered to improve. But with the coming of the winter, with what appears to be Inevitable distress, f perhaps almost famine attending it, j promises a rich harvest for socialism. : Workmen, pinch ed with hunger and goaded by the savage articles of the radical Socialistic press,will fall an easy prey to the propa gandist. London, August' 15. Rev. Canon Farrar, D. D., had announced that ser vices in memory of James Russell Lowell would be held in Westminster Abbey to-morrow. ; but the plan was abruptly changed, and the services were held to-day. Many ; Americans in the city, desirous of attending the services, nad no knowledge of the changed ar rangements, arid consequently they were not present. Special seats had been ar ranged in the choir and these were re served .for Americans. Among those who attended the services was Hon. Robert T. Lincoln, U. S. Minister. The ceremony was very impressive. London, August 15.

C, Aug. 15, 9 P. M. A large fire is raging in Norfolk, Vai, and communication with that city has been cut off. The fire started in the business portion of the city and several warehouses were burned. The reported loss so far reaches half a million dollars. .The Portsmouth fire department called on for assistance. was Norfolk, Va Aug. 15. During the terrific thunder and rain storm this evening fire broke out in the Norfolk storage Company's building on Water swwi, anu quiciay spread to a ware- M house occupied by the American Ferti- 1 1 " rri ...... user company, ine next building to catch nre was the ; warehouse of the Merchant and Farmer's Peanut Co., then Lyman Field & Co.'s flour ware house, and the Etna corn works quickly followed. Marshall & Green's barrel factory on Water street was also burned. The fire then . left Water street and caught in Geo. W. Taylor & Co.'s ice, coal and wood warehouse on Division street. The local freight shed of the OS Dominion Steamship Company next caught fire, but it was confined to the outer wall and no serious damage was done to the company's property. A warehouse on Division street, occupied by Rawlins, Whitehurst & Co.. a nil coal, was also consumed. Hardv Son s warehouse on Division street, oc cupied by W. Y. Johnson's steamboat line, stands undamaged in the burnt district. The origin of the fire, the IarMt Norfolk has had for years, is unknown, but it is supposed to have caught in the engine room of the Norfolk Storage Company, or from spontaneous combus tion.

THE WHEAT MARKET. AN EXCITING DAY ON THE CHICAGO BOARD OF TRAOE. Prices Advanced 6 5-8 Cents on Wheat, 8 Cents on Bye, and 9 3-4 Cents on Corn - Domestic and Foreign Markets all Fe verishly Excited. v - .'' By Telegraph to the Morning Star, Chicago, August 15. Local dealers in cereals completely lost all control over the wheat, corn and rye markets this morning. No such excited scram bles have been seen in the Chicago wheat pit since ts. f. Hutchinson ran his corner in that cereal in the fall of 1888. Outside dealers were as much at sea as Chicago. The speculators' story is only barely indicated by the closing quotations, which show 6c advance in wheat, 8c in rye and 2Mc in corn The excitement which characterized trading yesterday was quadrupled at the opening to-day. December which was being traded in at 99c at 1.15 o'clock yesterday afternoon, was wanted by hundreds of bellowing bulls and roaring bears at from $1.011.03, the mo ment the bell tapped for the opening of trade at 9.30 this morning. Business for about one minute was done oh an enormous scale at from $1.03 to $1.02, and then for a matter of five minutes the crowd made a unanimous rush to sell and the price tumbled to $1.01 Its stay at the latter point was short ine same unamimty wnicti nad tor a few minutes been in favor of the selling side, now changed and it rose to 1.02, at which point sellers entirely withdrew until outsiders had advanced their . bids to 51.00. some sales at that time were made as high as $1.05U, before it once more began to recede. The reactions following the later bulge stopped when it had gone to $1.03, and the market acted exceeding fine, with an upward trend, reaching to $1.04, and then back again to $1.04, a few times, and the as on the preceding bulge the en tire pit full of haggard and excited brokers yelled their bids, and as nothing but higher and still higher prices could induce any one to sell.bids of $1.0$,$1.06 $1.07 and finally $1.08, were thundered simultaneously from five hundred hus ky throats with very little secured as the prices shot up. . . i nere was a leeung tnat alter such a panicky advance the worst was over for the shorts for this eventful day at least; comparative quiet succeeded, and the price once more began to sag; but short sellers nad received such cruel expert ence-in the early stages, that the only parties who ottered the stun toward the dose were those who had it previously bought, and thought well of the profit onereo tnem. Many of the excited traders could not have given coherent account of the cause of all the turmoil; but sifted of all whirling clouds of dust, which obscured everything except the fact that the market was in a tremendous state of nervous : panic, the situation seemed to be this: Domestic and foreign manteis were ail levensnly higher, snort rye crop m Russia, excitement in the German rye market over Russian prohibition of rye exports, report that the cereal crop of Austria-Hungary was heavily deficient, shortage in wheat crops of France and India all rointed to a shortage in the world's breadstuffs. London was up Is on cargoes for prompt snipment ana Liverpool was Id to 2d higher and quoted strong and advancing, 1 hen a report was put in circulation that James R. Keene, of New York, Dacicea Dy a Dig hstern syndicate, was running the bull campaign in wheat. Early reports from New York that for eigners were selling heavilv caused a uiangc 01 scnu ment. w neat was thrown overboard in blocks, and the price broke as indicated above. This was near the opening. But at the time 1.08 was 1 . reacneo, tne excited shouters began to lose their breath, and to realize that the snort Saturday session was drawing to a close, and that it would be a good thing w even up iraaes in view 01 the inter- : o 1 t - .. vciuiig juuuay. inuring tnis process.

Re ceipts of. hogs were lighter than had been looked for and prices higher, which was the only other independent source of strength. Opening orices showed consioerapie advance.

A Dayton, Ohio, Gambler Bobbed by One of His Viotims. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Dayton, O.. Aug. 15. During the past three or four days a stranger who claimed Chattanooga, Tenn., as his home, has been playing faro at the gambling rooms attached to Wagner's palatial i saloon, No. ! 10 South Main street, and lost a large sum of money. About 1 noon yesterday he entered the rooms. Steve and. Bill Lecompte and S. Wagner. Sr.. were the onlv occunants i the room. Pulling out his revolver he ordered Wagner to hand over the bank roll. "I will kill two of you and then shoot myself," ; grimly , said the robber. The roll, amounting to $196, was handed out and Colby made his escape, presenting his revolver at several per sons who attempted to detain him. No trace Of him has vet been found. He had called on Wagner earlier to-dav. asked for $20 to help him get out of town. This money was given to him and he signed the name E. E. Poling to a receipt, and said he was from Chat tanooga, Tenn., where his business had burned out, and the money he lost play ing laro yesterday was part of the in surance money that ; he had received. The sensation has temporarily caused the closing of all the gambling houses in the City. There will probably be no great effort made to arrest the man. THE BLACK REPUBLIC. Hippolyto'a Cabinet ' Beaigna But the ; Capital Remains Tranquil. ; Bv Cable to the Morning Star. PoRt-au-Prince, August 15. The Cabinet resigned yesterday, owing to failure of the Chambers to grant a com mission for construction of a telegraph line, j The Cabinet had made this a government question and as the Cham bers rejected the proposition by a de cisive majority, they at once placed their resignations in the hands of the President. Hippolyte has not vet de cided when he will select or whom he will select for the vacant places, but is canvassing the situation carefully. He docs not think the resignations will have much political effect. The downfall of the cabinet has been the principal topic of conversation in political circles, and much curiosity is manifested with reference to the Presi dent's selection of a new ministrv. But the city remains entirely tranquil so far as one can see. If the disaffected ele ment has only a notion of taking advan tage ot the present crisis to improve its position it is working so secretly that nothing appears on the surface. COTTON. The New York Futures Market Yesterday. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. New York, Aug. 15. The Sun's cot ton circular says: Futures opened 1 to 3 points decline- quickly rallied, afterwards improved and closed firm at 2 to 4 points advance from yesterday's closing prices. The market to-day was almost a repetition of that of yesterday. Liverpool declined, and we followed suit. Then came buying to cover contracts. A "stop order" for a considerable quantity came upon the market, the early decline was quickly recovered, and some further advance took place. The weekly" crop reports made this morning were not favorable to the bears. Appearance of the boll worm was reported, also rust and in creased shedding of bolls. It was like wise noticed that for the first time in a good deal more than a year deliveries from plantations fell below last year. The excess in the visible supply has fallen in a few weeks from 798,000 to 638,000. The current consumotion of Europe per week is 9,000 bales of 400 pounds each in excess of last year.
