MESSENGER BTJKEATJ, I ;j RaLeioh. Oct. 19. f mi. T xms aicernoon tde funeral of Hon Edwin Godwin Reade was held from the First Presbyterian church. It was vm-v largely attended and impressive. It was attended by the Supreme court? the members of the bar, the officers of all the banks and the ofiicers of the church as bodies. The State officers also xw;y. ur. Eugene Uaniel, pastor of the church, officiated, assisted by Rev. Dr. Jeese CunniDggim and ; other ministers. The burial was in Oakwood cemetery. Judge Reade leaves an estate valued at 1350,000. The honorary pallbeares were Gov ernor Carr, Treasurer Tate, Chief Justice Shepherd and Associate Justices Avery, Clark, MacRae, Bur well and Col. Kenan. It was certainly hard last night to pick up any news as to the completed fusion ticket. -Your corresDondent wan asanrori early in the evenine that W. A. fluthrio would be put on the Supreme court ticket. When Mr. Butler WAR rapti nHfl o clock he said he was really sorry that he could give out no news. He said his position was sineularlv delicate. Thia must have meant that there were instruc tions not to tell anything whioh was done yestercfay at the session of the Republi can State committee and the Populist Executive committee. Your correspondent had heard a m. mor that there was a hitch between the two chairmen as 'to the judicial nomi nees; that Mr. Holton wnyitprt Ma- Guthrie.and Mr. Butler W. A. Mont gomery, Esq., of Raleigh, who is a Dem ocrat, in Mr. Connor's place. Mr Butler laughed when this was mentioned and said there was not a word of truth in it. xnea Mr. iut!er was asked if Jex-Judge Spier Whiiaker was to be nut n Then he repeated his statement: "Really I cain't say any more." He added that the tickets would be printed some at Ralei some a Goldsboro and would be ready in a day or two, Mr. Eutler was ever polite. Chairman Holton of the Renublif. of the fusion was the most uncommuni cative man in the county yesterday ard last night. He must have sworn an oath not to talk.

(jovernor Carr spoke at Polenta, John ston county, yesterday to 1,000 persons. He is much pleased at the pleasant re ception given him by the people of John ston, which is, by the way one of the mo3t prosperous; counties in the State. As a rule during this campaign the audinances have not been large. All the parties admit this. It is hard to get the people out. Say what we will, there is a growing distaste for politics on the part of the masses j The days of great excitement and great assemblages really seem to be gone never to return. Metropolitan hall was filled with pee ple last evening, toj hear the fusion orators. On the stage were Bon. Oliver H. Dockery, Mr, W. F. Stroud, Populist nominee for Congress, Rev. R.. H. V. Leak, colored, who is devoting himself to political work in the highways and byways; J. C L. Harris, - Esq , Hon. John Nichols, S. Otho Wilson, James H." Young, colored, and other? . Mr. Harris opened the speaking and made the introductions of the other speakers. The talk was on voting for the fusion ticket, and a "free election and a fair" count, and all said that the Legislature must be secured by all means. Mr Wjlson declared that it would give him as much pleasure to vote for James H, Young as for any man on ticket. Hon. O. jH. Dockery said he did not believe in several of the Populist doctrines; did not subscribe to th&ir ideas as to sub-treasury, Government .owner ship of railways!, etc. Hia belief was that the Republicans and Populists must pull together in this campaign to defeat the Democrats, land for that purpose only. He said "jvhy, in four years we may be like cats and dog3. Each party can go its own way after we have done our work in November.". James H. was the last speaker. white Populists were their COMMERCIAL NEWS. Stocks and Bonds in New York Grain and Provision Market "in Chicago. New Yoekv Oct. 19. Speculation t the Stock Exchange was more active to-day, the result of efforts on the part of the bears to cever short contractors. The opening was lirm. notwithstanding the engagement of $500,000 gold for shipment to Eurepe by the steamer Ems to-morrow. The firm shipping the go!d secured it at the sub-treasury by paying legal tenders. General Electric was heavy at one time and fell to 33 on liquidations of weak accounts. Chicago Gas, Manhat tan and American Sugar ako received some attention from , the bears who ex pected to check the rising tendency by raiding these issues. Chicago Gas sold down from 76 to 75.

Rennrta from TZaxxr York of heavy export sales at all the sea board markets saved prices of wheat in this market from an ineloriousvdeclin to-day. All day until the last hour thfr was a heavy feeling hanging over prices fears that some of the big lines bought yesterday and at the immediate opening to-day would go over-board from lack of outside news, frightening the crowd and inducing them to back down when offer ings were heard. Pardridge and his fol lowing were pressing their advantage and selling quite f rejely. First advices gave the export sales at fifty-six loads, but before the close they had been worked up to 116 and a decidedly bullish senti ment then pervaded the pit. December wheat opened from 52 to 521c. snld ho. iweeji ozj and 52$ to 52. closing at 52f c, i higher than yesterday. Caeh wheat was in good demand, red winter for spot offerings bringing i to c over December. Otherwise prices were stead v. Whilst corn displayed a willingness to advance with wheat, prices were not in touch with the weakness of that grain. The weather bureau predictions of wet weather produced marked strength in the December future during the first hour, but May was well up with it at the close. Business was not active, but the de mand was of a better character than the offerings. May corn opened from 49 1 to 49fc, sold from 49 to 49i to 49c, clos ing at the outside, fc over yesterday. Cash corn was steady, the nominal close being strong. Elevator operators were tafeins- mmt of the offerings of oats tc-day, the ten dency of prices being to sympathize with corn. No news of importance was received and, as a whole, the trade was of the usual uninteresting nature. The close was strong with May to c higher than yesterday. Cash oats were firm and ic higher than yesterday. Shorts found it an easy matter to cover their product to-day without influencing prices in a perceptible manner. This was the result of the live) hog situation. The receipts of the animal at the yards to-day were large, and the estimates for Saturday heavy, and m-ices were lower. The cash situation was another stumbling oiqi-K to an advance, me demand in that quarter being of the most indifferent kind. - The close Was 17c lower than yesterday for January pork, 7 to 10c lower for January lard and 7 ic lower for January rib3. r AFTER THE ROBBERS.

Mr. Breckinridge's salary for the remainder of hia Congressional term is exempt by law from seizure, and there is no provision in th6 laws of the District of Columbia, as there is on the statutes of some of the States, for the arrest and detention of any person abcut to leave the jurisdiction of the State without complying with the judgments of its courts.

In his pocket was a 45 calibre Coltfs single ac tion revolver with all the chambers loaded. A black handle knife of medium size wes tne place where he broke hi3 leg. It was partly buried and was covered with mud, showing that he had used it to dig a hole. The fellow will not explain why he buried the knife and the police think that it is an important link in the chain of evidence. He also had a pair of gold plated cuff buttons and a small diamond ring which were taken. jThe Adams Express company has attached the money found on Morganfield, (fl,100 in all ) There are three more of the thieves still at large and the local Ipolice have every, reason to believe that they are somewhere in this neighborhood. On a farm near Chester Park the de tectives this afternoon found a bottle of laudanum. In the bottle was blown the name "Ogram, 1213 Pennsylvanian avenue, Washington, D. C.V This bot tle was found where Morganfield was ar rested. He was in Washington with Searcey. : j Near the spot where Mor eranfield hrokn his leg while trying to board a freight train, they found the broken) point of a knife blade, it being supposed he was trying to dig a hole in the earth toi con ceal something. Marks were also found on the ground, indicating mat he had dragged himself to the cf eek nearby after being injured. It is thought he then threw something into the water. It was learned that a one legged fellow who has been hanging around St. Bernard, called at German's farm house Wednes day and took away a bundle given him by the supposed robber. It is believed that this bundle contained a greater part of the "swag." The officers are to-night scouring the neighborhood for the one- legged man. A flash photograph of Morganfield was taken today to be for warded to Washington. T ' John Carley, teamster, eavs that on Wednesday afternoon, a short time after Morganfield had been removed to the Gie3man house, a well-dressed stranger accosted him and asked where the in jured man had been taken. He was told, but the man did notl go to the Giesman residence. He is supposed to be an accomplice of the injured man. One detachment of officers are on this man's trail. While many jprivate de tectives as well as the regular force are still engaged about Chester Park su burbe, There ia a general opinion tonight that Morganfield's pals, at least some of them, have escaped to Louisville. A DARING ROBBERY. A. Texas Pacific Train Held Up uay Time and Bobbed. Fort Worth, Texas, Oct. 19. The westbound Texas and Pacific through ex press train for California, leaving here at 9:30 o'clock this morning, was robbed about noon near Gordon, seventy miles west of here. The robbers secured about 120,000 from the Pacific Express com pany, and but for their, inability to open the safe of the Texas and Pacific Coal company, containing $20,000 in gold, would have made a better haul. Four men did the work. They came upon a section gang about noon, covered them with their Winchesters and forced them to spread therajls and flag the on-coming train. The engineer and fireman were then lined up with the section gang and guarded while two men entered the ex press car and covered the messenger before he was aware of their presence. Messenger Marshall was ordprprf tn the safe containing the money of the Texas and Pacific Coal company. Tell ing them he could not do this, they seized a pick and ruined the combina tion, remarking: "If we can't get the money those d d minora t Thw shant." !

Despatches from all parts of the continent show that the whole European press is brimming with articles on the Czar. The vast majority of writers praise him for his loye of peace, speculation as to the Czare witch's future policy is rife. No two estimates of his character agree. Many of them are exceedingly unfavorable. The Censorship of the St J Petersburg press is reported as being unusually strict I The newspaper which announced yes terday that Father Ivan, better known as "Holy John," had been summoned from Cronstadt to Livadia, was seized by the police. The Allgemeine Zeitung in Vienna suggested this evening that the Czar was already dead and the fact was concealed, as it was in the case of Emperor Nich olas I. j The Russian Embassy in Rome received a despatch to-night saying that a miracle alone could save the Czar's life. Prayers are offered hourly in the Russian Cathe drals and daily in the Russian churches and the chapels of Russian Embassies in Eurepean capitals.

"What's that?" inquired Mr. Lexow angrily. t Senator Bradley whistled softly. Sen ator Cantor only smiled, while Senator Robinson appeared thunderstruck; Mr. Coff inquired whether a pool was being made up for the purpose of secur ing "protection" from the committee, but the witness assured him that he knew nothing about it, if euch an attempt was There was the usual grind of cases dur ing the morning. Walter Valentine, of me Dieurus vvommission company, ac cused of dealing in bogus stocks, said that he could not find the detailed state mentsot his business asked for by the committee at the previous session. His answers were so unsatisfactory that the police were requested to arrest the pro prietors of the place and later in the day Superintendent Bvrnes rimed place. .

Just at this moment the door of the court room opened and Detective Ben nett led in the three little children of Mrs. Urchittel. The moment she saw tnem she rushed towards them and seiz ing the little boy clasped him to her bosom. She kissed him again and again and sobbed aloud with joy. Then she embraced the other two children and kissed them. There was scarcely a dry eye in the court room. "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Goff," the poor Russian woman exclaimed. Finally she and the children were led from the court room. It was the most sensational incident in the entire pro ceedings of the Lexow committee. Mrs. Urchittel's children were taken from her, and she herself was arrested on the charge of being a disorderly per son by officer HuBsey. The story of per secution Bhe told before the committee was a most pathetic one. The Lexow ; committee adjourned until next Wednesday morning. Business Failures. New York, Oct. 19.
