Chicago, November 19 The arri vals of wheat in the Northwest to day did not indicate any serious falling off in the movement in that section and the bears claimed vindication of the views expressed by them. Of course prices were easy on that news, bat, owing to stormy weather, wires were working bad and outside orders were scarce. The day's business was transacted princi- nallw within a ranore of c Quotations only occasionally moving outside ot that limit. Local shorts were good sellers throughout the day, but upon learning of a good cash business before the close they covered rather freely, the best prices of the session being then es tablished. December wheat opened from 57H57c, sold between 56$c and 57c, closing at 57Jtf57&c Kc higher than yesterday. Casn wheat was steady. . One-eighth of a cent covered the fluctuations in corn. The first transac tions were with symptoms of consider able strength, the belief that receipts would be retarded by the storm being instrumental in bringing in some buy ing orders. The execution of those orders apparently- ended the business of the sessions, for trading from that time until the close was of a most indiffer ent sort. May corn open at 29J. sold at 29j.;closing at 29 asked a shade higher than yesterday. Cash corn was steady. The oats market remained in pretty much the same position it has been oc cupying of late. May oats closed a shade lower than yesterday. Cash oats were steady and unchanged. The tone of the provision market was easy at the start and steady later. A tew outside orders were received, bat they were scattered, indicating nothing par ticular. Very little change in prices was noted' during the session and at the close January pork and lard were un- SPOTS AND FUTURES New York Bun' Beview of the Sitnt tion in Cotton. B Telegraph to the Moraine Stai . New Y&rk, November 19. The Sun says cotton fell twelve to thirteen points but rallied and closed very steady at a net decline of three to four points with sales of 244,800 bales. Liverpool de clined l-16d on the spot, with sales of 17,000 bales; futures declined six to six and a half points, closing barely steady New Orleans declined fifteen to seven teen points, but recovered seven to nine points of this. New Orleans receipts to morrow estimated at 15.000 to 17, 000 bales. Spot cotton here was quiet at ' l-16c. decline, with sales of 158 for spinning. In Manchester yarns were dull; cloths small inquiry. Augusta received to-day 993 bales; Mem phis 2,877; Houston 12,938. St. Louis declined 116c. New Orleans and Au gusta were easy. New Orleans sold 5.000 bales. The exports from the ports were 12.491 to Great Britain, 17,200 to France and 13,165 to the Continent; total 42, 856. The ports received 38.540 bales. against 43,525 last week and 69,853 last year; thus far this week 111.485 bales, against 110 255 thus far last week. Hons ton expects to morrow 5,000 to 6.000 bales.

First ic declined under the Influence of a decided drop in Liverpool, rather liberal port receipts, a bearish estimate for New Orleans to morrow, large arrivals at Houston, dullness .in Manchester, a disturbed plan in the financial situation in Europe, expectations of a rather free crop movement during the next two weeks and selling by Liverpool, New Orleans, the South. Wall street, and local operators. It 13 certainly not a healthy state of affairs lor the farmers of the South, big ard little, to bs holding for higher p ices; and provided there is not too much of a scramble tq sell, of which mere are no signs at tne present time, a natural efflux of cotton to Europe is in reality a Urengthening factor in the general situation.

FOG IN NEW YORK. Twma Delayed Serious Collision on Brooklyn Bridie. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. New York, Nov. 19. A dense fog Settled over the city and vicinity at day light this morning, greatly delaying traf fic in the city and harbor. All subur ban trains, elevated trains and street cars were forced to move very slowly and cautiously and persons on their way to work or to their places of business were from thirty minutes to one hour late. A serious rear-end collision occurred on the Brooklyn bridge shortly before 8 o'clock this morning which was directly due to the fog. Several cars were tel es :oped. Thomas Cooper, conductor of the crushed tram, had iboth legs . cat off above the knee as clean as if done with an axe. A oasseneer named Georce Grannit, a medical student, had one foot cut off in a similar manner. NAVAL STORES MARKETS. 8t Telegraph to the Morning Stat. N ew York.

By Telegraph to the Morning Star. ' Rome. N. Y Nov. 19. The deliberate wrecking pf fast mail train No. 6 east bound on the New York Central Rail road was accomplished about three miles west of this city at 4.20 o'clock this morning. The wreckers had broken open the company's tool house near by and obtained a wrench and crowbar with which all the spikes and fish-plates from two opposite rails on the southerly track had been removed. The two released rails were left in their places on the track. As the train comprising four mail cars and three sleeping cars came along at the rate ot about forty miles an hour, the engine left the track, bounded over the ties' and fell sideways into the ditch, twelve feet deep on the south side of the track. The first two mail cars shot over the engine, the first one landing fully seventy-five feet from the point where the eogtne left the track. The second and third mail cars came together in V" shape, and the wreck of the engine lay in the open space between them. Under the second mail car, pinned down by a pair of tracks and stone dead, was found Engineer Hager. .The fourth mail car was toppled part way over. The first two sleepers were partly turned over, and the last one remained on the tracks. Strange to say. the two loose rails had not been thrown from the road-bed, the last car remaining upon them. There were about fifty passengers in the three sleepers, and not one of them was hurt. The passengers were taken east on another train shortly after the accident. The killed and wounded in the smash up are : Nathan N. Hager, engineer. Albanv. killed: Robert Elliott or Bond. from Syracuse, a tramp, died after being removed from the wrecks E. Reardon, Herkimer, mail clerk, head and body cut and bruised; I. E. Lavine, New York.' mail clerk, upper arm bruised and sprain ed and face cut: H. D. Robinson, Syra cuse, mail clerk, ankle sprained; F. N. Paddock. Syracuse, mail clerk, arm cut; C. W. Sackett, Herkhimer. mail clerk, arm cut and braised;' M. J. McGarity, Buffalo, porter, head cut and. bruised; R. B. Peck. Syracuse, mail clerk, head cut and bruised; Conductor Chas. R, Reynolds, Albany, injured in the chest, Johnny R. Macy, tramp, right foot mashed and amputated. He is at Rome hospital. C Wagner, Albany, fireman. head cut. The body of Engineer Hager is in charge of Undertaker Orton, of this city. The tools with which the spikes were pulled were found on the track after the wreck:. One week ago last Sunday night a fish-plate was loosened near the point where this morning's accident occurred. Several trains passed over the place in safety. The matter was discovered by the track walker the following morning and a watch was kept there each night till last night. - Three young fellows aged 18 and 19 years have been arrested for wrecking the train. The? are J. Watson Hildreth, of New York; rred Brystol and Her bert Plate, of Rome. Hildreth has made a confession implicating the other two and Theodore Hibbard, who has not been apprehended. Their object was robbery. The arrests were made by detective Larking, of the New York Central, and Policeman Keating, of Rome. They found Hildreth's bat, with his name in it, in some bashes near the wreck. Upon confronting him he weakened and told who his accom plices were and their object. j went j -two persons, unhurt, were taken. out of the windows of the first sleeper, the Inca. All of the mail and sleeping cars were lighted with Pintsch gas and no fire was set to the wreck. Young Hildreth is said to be the son ot a wealthy lawyer in New York. Theodore Hibbard. the last of the four train wreckers, was captured at 3 p. m. and is now in custody with the others. A yellow covered history of the exploits of the James boys was found in one of Bristol's pockets. MILLS IN NORTH CAROLINA. S-ate Iobor CommiMiaser 13) '4 Be pert. By Telegraph to the Morning Star.

By Telegraph te the Morning Star NBwYORK,Novemberl9 -4TheCham- ber of Commerce held its one hundred aod twenty-seventh annual banquet to night at Delmonico.l iTbe banquet hall was decorated with the Stars and Stripes and the greatest enthusiasm prevailed. Alexander E Orr. President of the Chamber of Commerce, presided, and around him were seated, besides the speakers of the evening, , Hon. " Carl bchurz, . Kear Aamirai nenry crucu. Mayor Strong. Hon Hillary A. Herbert, Hon. Judson Harmon, Gen. Thomas H. Roger, Commander Montgomery Sicard, James N. Constable, William H. Webb, Calvin S. Brice, Gen. Horace Sorter, j. Edward Simmons, John Jacob Astorana James G. Cannon. The meetine was called to order by President Orr, who introduced the Hon. Tohn G. Carlisle, Secretary of the Treas- ary, wno spose on - uur currency ques tion." - - " ' - ' ' - ' . " Mr. Carlisle said in part: Two years ago I said to you that the disposition and ability of the Govern ment to maintain its own credit at the highest standard, and to preserve the integrity of ail the forms of currency in circulation among the people, could not be reasonably doubted, and ought not to be the subject of further controversy. While scarcely any one, now seriously doubts either the' disposition or the abihtv of the executive branch of the Govement to accomplish these od jects. all who have given any attention to the subject must realize mat in me existing state of our legislation the task is both difficult and ep o.vc Since that declaration was made here, interest bearing bonds to the amount of $162 815.400 have been issued to procure cold for the redemption of U. S. notes and Treasury notes ana tne obligations of the Government on account ot the notes still remain the same as at the beginning. The notes are redeemed, but they are unpaid and if oar legislation is not changed, no matter how often they may be presented and redeemed hereafter, they will remain unpaid. If this policy of redemption and reissue is continued, the interest-bearing debt will be greatly increased, while the non-interest-bearing debt will not be in the least diminished The disadvantages of such a system are so obvious that it is hardly necessary to enumerate them. The Government has undertaken to keep an unlimited amount of circulating notes equal in value to gold coin and at the same time it has no legal authority to compel anybody to give it gold in exchange for the notes, or to pay gold on any demand due to it. Although the amount ot United states notes is fixed at S346.681.000. and the amount of Treasury notes outstanding is a little over $140,000,000, yet the total amount that may be presented for re demption is unlimited, because there is no restriction as to the Dumber of times the same note may be returned to the Treasury and exchanged for gold. The fundamental vice in our currency sys tern is the legal tender note, redeemable in com by the government and reissu able under the law. This threatens the stability of the whole volume-of our currency, and has caused immense losses by fluctuations, of which it is im possible to keep the public aware. It was never contemplated that the Gov ernment should convert itself into a bank of issue. The Treasury Depart ment is simply a public agency for the management of the fiscal affairs of the Government. The circulation of legal tender United States notes and Treasury notes has a tendency to drive out of use and out of the country, the yery coin in which the Government Is compelled 'to redeem them; and it has expelled millions of dollars Irom our borders. No other gov ernment in the world is required to sup ply goid from its treasuty to discharge the private obligations of its citizens and no government ought to be required to do so. The fact that the Govern ment is required to borrow money is an ioj dry to its credit and the credit of its people, but the injury resulting from this cause is insignificant in comparison with the ruin that would follow an abandonment of the reserve while the notes are outstanding, 'or all our cur rency would thus be reduced to the silver standard. The theories that the Government can create money by placing its stamp upon paper; that a legislative enactment can make fifty cents equal to one hun dred cents; that artificially inflated prices, paid in depreciated currency, are better for the people than natural prices. paid in sound currency, and various other vagaries, are all directly attributa ble to the long-continued use of legal tender paper. The proposition, that a promise ot the Government to pay money is money is just as absurd as the .proposition that a promise to deliver a horse is a horse. The agitation tor the free coinage of legal tenders silver at a ratio which would put only fifty cents worth of bullion in a silver dollar is predicated upon the same vicious principle. - The United States note was a forced loan from the people to the Government, which the Government promises to "re pay in dollars, but the free coinage of legal tender silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, or at any other rate not corresponding with the commercial value of the two metals, would be a forced loan from the people to the owners of silver mines and silver bullion without a promise of repay ment by anybody. One loan was forced for the benefit of the Government, in a time of war, bat the proposition of the advocates of free coinage is to force an other lean for the benefit of private in dividuals and corporations, in a time of profound peace. In principle the two measures are precisely alike. The free coinage ot legal tender 'stiver would be far more unjust than the issue of legal tender United States notes. However, it is not my porpose now to discuss the question of free coinage. I think the abandonment or suspension of the ag gressive movement against this financial heresy would be most unwise at this time, especially in view of the fact that a concerted effort is evidently now being made in the South and West to reeain the ground lost during the last six months. If the friends of sound meas ure of value are vigilant this effort can not possibly succeed. But the legal notes will remain to complicate' the currency system until Congress agrees to their retirement and substitution of others in their places. . This legislation is iraperltatively demanded, as it con cerns the welfare of all the people. The speaker closed with a hooe that the political platforms of both the great parties would bencelorth be clear and unequivocal. Among tne letters oi regret read was A .. . .. . . the following : , Jucecutive Mansion, Washington, Nov, 19' 1895. toy Dear Mr. Orr: "I am sorry that i leel obliged to write it, but you must let me off from the Chamber of Commerce dinner this year.

Br Cable te the MoroUtf Star. ., : London November 19 An incident that is unparalleled in the annals of English diplomacy occurred this even ing at the conference of the colonial agents in London. This was the reading of a letter from the Sultan of Turkey to Lord Salisbury, begging him to make a speech that would offset the one be had delivered on the "occasion ot the banquet given by the Lord Mayor of London. Lord Salisbury referred to the impro priety of reading the letter at the con ference, but he took advantage of the occasion simply to grant, so far as he could, the request madeby the Sultan. At the outset of his speech the Prime Minister said: "Allow me to say a word in answer 'to a very distin guished distant correspondent, if I may so term him, who has requested me to make a statement in some public speech. My correspondent is no less a personage than the Saltan of Turkey. Loud cheers J I feel that there is pro found impropriety in thrusting any diplomatic details on your attention and I hope you will believe that nothing would have induced me to produce on this occasion the august message I shall reaa" except the distinct commands of the persons from whom it proceeded." "Lord Salisbury then referred to the speech be delivered at the Guild Hall on the occasion of the banquet given by the new Lord Mayor of London on No vember 9th, and said: "His Majesty has been pleated to send me a message to say that he has been very much pained to read the report of that speech and the expression of the opinion that the promised reforms in Turkey would not be executed. His Majesty desires it to be known that be is carrying out those reforms decided upon by him. He is desirous of execut ing' them at the earliest possible mo ment, and has so repeatedly instructed his ministers. His Majesty continues: 'The only reason why Lord Salisbury should thus throw doubts On my good intentions must be the intrigues of cer tain persons here, or false statements made to cause such an opinion.' " "After intermediate observations. His Majesty says: "I repeat that I will execute the reforms. I will take the paper containing them, place it before me and see that every article is nut in force. This is my earnest determina tion and I give my word of honor. I wish Lord Salisbury to know this and 1 beg and desire his Lordship, having confidence in these declarations, to make another speech by virtue of the friendly feeling and disposition he has for me and, my country. I shall await the result of this message with great anxiety. When the Prime Minister had finished reading the letter he was greeted with loud applause. When quiet had been restored he again appealed to his hearers to acquit him of impropriety for such an unprecedented act as reading such a message at a public meeting, but de dared that he could not abstain from reading it without showing discourtesy to the distinguished potentate who had written it. He then said: . "As you know, we are part of the con cert of Europe, which has resolved, so far as it acts, to act with unanimity, Some persons seem to imagine that we dispose of the decisions ot the buro pean Powers. That is crediting us with more influence than we possess. What ever is done must be done with unanim ity. I da not admit that responsibility fcr any decision that the Powers make rests entirely, or mainly, On this country. We and all the Powers are in a position common to those who are obliged to act together, namely, that if others do not agree with them, they cannot have their own way. bat 1 in no wise desire to in timate by these words that the slight est shade of disagreement has arisen among the Powers."

Acq a i tied of Charges of Immorality by the Virginia Methodist Conferenoe. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. ' Richmond. Nov. 19. Tne trial of Rev. George W. Carter by a committee of the Virginia Methodist Conference on charges of immorality in contracting matrimony whilst having a divorced wife living, terminated to-day in the acquittal ana vindication ot the accused. Dr. Car ter's aase has excited great interest and been the principal theme for those who like something oat of the usual order. He was bitterly prosecuted by Drs. Brown and Whitehead before the com mittee of inquiry and later by Dr . White head before the committee of trial. Dr. Carter has, perhaps, the most won derful intellect ever develorjed bv a Methodist minister in Virginia, and at the preliminary inauirv defended him self with such ability that Dr. Whitehead openly stated that he could not hope to cope with Carter in the latter's remark able skill at statins propositions and making substantive inductions. At the trial before a committee of nine ministers, with Dr. R. N. Sledd, of Richmond, presiding. Dr. Carter was represented by Dr. J. Powell Garland, of .Norfolk, and Rev, R. T. Wilson, of Richmond. Dr. Garland's friendship for the accused minister has been as true as steel. He has not hesitated or fal tered in defending htm from reproach. ur. oarland's reputation in the Vireinia Conference hitherto has been that of a diplomat, adroit at managing matters without friction; but in this Case be de veloped courage and boldness of the highest order and also a capacity for controversy and an ability in debate that have excited the greatest re spect. The fact that he triumphed over such anantagonist as Dr. White head in case, the defence of which was attended by manifest difficulties, is of itself a sufficient indication of the force exerted. - For , if there is a man in the Virginia conference who stands higher for technical knowledge and eenuine ability than Dr. Whitehead nobody knows who he is. . Mr. Wilson of the defence also made a strong and convincing argument. Dr. Carter and all of his friends in the conference are naturally greatly pleased at his acquittal. After consultation Dr. Carter decided that, rather than stir up strife and bitterness on the floor of con ference upon the question of location, be would voluntarily ask the conference to locate him and thus avoid the fight which it is known bis opponents pur posed making upon him.- This course was vigorously protested against - by man 7 of Dr. Carter's more aggressive supporters, who insisted that be could win the fight all the way through, but the more conservative advisers, while confident that the conference would not order compulsory location, coofirmed Dr. Carter's judgment and approved his determination to locate voluntarily ior the present. prices of Cotton Goods Show Little - Change.'
