Tile Pastor's Conference of the baptist Ministers met pursuant to adjournment, at 11:30 o'clock tills morning, in the First Baptist Church, and was opened with devotional services conducted by Rev. J. W. Daugherty, who read a selection from the loth chapter of John. Hymn, "Come. Holy Spirit. Heavcly Dove," was next sung, in which the brethren joined heartily. After the singing of this hymn prayer was of? fered by Rev. M. F. Sand ford, of Burkr ville. Two verses of hymn No. S37, "Nearer My Dod To Thee." was sung, which concluded the services. Rev. M. F. Wood was then culled to the chair to preside In place of Rev. H. W. Trlb- I ble", who was not present. The Chair announced the first question for discus? sion to be "The Rapt Ism of the Holy Sprlrit for Service." The discussion was opened by Rev. 1.. G. Broughton, of Roanoke, who began by saying taut he would tui:o for his text tin 49th verse of tin- 24th chapter of Luke, l.e said he recognized he was treading ini dangerous ground. Ho thought tLey. us Hasp lists, should honor the Holy (.host more in their worship and more in their conventions. Dr. Broughton asked, because there is danger in the Holy Spirit, shall we ignore it? Vi e must come together and gel the truth and If It cut:-, let It etil. The speaker thought Baptists had their prejudices as well as other people. Dr. Broughton believed the Bible to be the very pho? nograph of Clod. He held that If we only go in the Bible we will find all proper Instructions as to what our duty Is to Hod. Wo ne. d the Spirit of in the church to make it an i-\angcll.-al power, one trouble with us b; that we have been'fishing for money, culture' and standing rather than fishing for souls. Dr. Broughton next spoke of' cvangelk-.ntiv.- power. Said be: "Wo want the Holy Spirit In our work and we want the Holy Spirit In the hearts of our people," Ho was of tie- opinion that tin- ibdy Spirit was out teacher as to what wo should give lo the Luid. I -Dr. Broughton told of ri servant girl m New York whose wag. was four dollars a week, who gave one-fourth of her earnings to the work of the Lord cae.i month. All w.- heed is the Ibdy Spirit to teach us how much we should give for purposes of tin- Lord. Dr. .1. ,1. Hall, of Norfolk, next read a paper on '/'Baptism of Ihe Holy Spirit." After the rending of this paper hymn "Coin.. Holy Spirit, Heavenly Dove." was snug, and He n prayer was offered by Rev. F. R. I los ton, of Wnr renton. Va. General discussion or the question, which had been considered, next followed. Rev. W. I-'. Dunawny, of Middlebtirg, Va.. saiii he reit assured that all bail been cdllicd Ivy these xcrclses. II.- had iuiilivays prayed 'Oh, 'Cod. nil me with faith ami the Holy Glinst.!' We all should endeavor to bo like .1? sits Christ. The Speaker believed that the result of tin sc discussions would be the leading of the churches of Christ into a higher life. He thought the phrases "Baptism of the Holy Spirit" was an unwarranted one. He could not hear of (he preposition "in" that be .lid not think- of baptism In tin- Holy Spirit Let us be consistent with our faith and tin- principles we hold, and not be lead away by j,braves. There has been a good deal of confusion ami false leach? ing on this subject of tb.- Holy Spirit. Mr. Dunawny thought tin- right ex? pression these days was "Baptism to tin- Holy Ghost." Rev. J. F. Love, or Suffolk, said it took the Lord 4,000 years to drive into the ears of Israel that there was only one (lad. We ought to leave to Uni? tarians and Jews the preservation of the unity of the Godhead. He thought the next conference that should be ap? pointed should be for the study of the trinity. Dr. Brciughton, who followed Rev. Mr. Love, said this question of baptiz? ing with the Holy Spirit was not dan? gerous to Baptists. It means nothing in.in- than enveloped with the Holy Ghost. The speaker said that it was scriptural and be was willing to get down on his knees and Bay, "Lord, baptize in.- with the Holy Ghost." We look to Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sin, and the Holy Ghost for power. Rev. Robert Rylahd, D. D., of Bris? tol, Vh.. who is tin- oldest member of tie- association, was tin- next speaker. He wanted to know If the Bible gave liny instance of a prayer addressed to the Holy Spirit. Dr. Dtinimway replied (o Dr. Ry Innd briefly. Rev. Mr. Galnes, of Lebanon, South? west, Va., spoke of the work of con? secration, which in- said was the weakness of Christianity to-day. Rev. Stockton Cole, of Charlcstown, W. Va.. wanted to know If they as Bap? tists had not been praying right all these days. "Our Father, who art In Heaven," said" Mr. Cole, was good enough for him. The Holy Spirit, thought the speaker.' Was doing a simi? lar work to-day. as Christ did when ho was on earth. WORK WITH INQUIRERS 1 The next topic- discussed was "Work With Inquirers.'' The discussion was op. ne.i by lb-v. A. 13. Ownc, of Ports? mouth, who started by saying that the first thing was to get tin- Inquirer. The doctor.cannot practice much with? out patients. dug sent to his home, in Portsmouth, died. Mr. C. A.

Ici-niorrow, in their Weekly Review of Trade, will say: Failures In the first week of Novem? ber amounted to $2.?71.175. against $2, Sil.115 last year, and for October show liabilities of $1G,037,921, against $11,127, 290 last year, and $24.954,132 in IS!>:I. For the past week failures have been 283 iu the United States, against 270 last year ami 3? In Canada, against .IS last year. The scare about gold exports had no teal significance ami although $2.250, itUO more will gti out. the stock market lias been recovering. The collapse of Ktlflir speculations abroad has forced many to realize on Americans and the| Impression that the Government may have to borrow again operates to our disadvantage. Rut there is no local dis? turbance of money markets, slocks are, eighty cents per share stronger than a Week ago. commercial loans are not large and the demand lor moving crops Iths been remitr,kably small, so that, on the whole, tlie money market has shown very unusual strength and BteadlllCSj for the lull season. Tiie Government's monthly crop re? port has cans-. .1. as usual, rather more uncertainty as to its interpretation than previously expected as to crops. The cotton statement lacking account of acreage on which it is based, was of only .speculative value and the mere rumor that Mr. Neill hud induced his estimate of the crop actually effected more than the official estimate. The bottom fact is that veil a small? er crop than anybody expects with the 3,000,. hales carrfbd over, wfyl as? suredly prevent any famine in cotton. Meanwhile the exports decrease .Iii per cent. In quantity. Wheat perplexes the oldest Inhabi? tant. The out-put of pig iron. November 1st, was 217.3011 tons weekly, about 10 per cent, larger than ever before, and eon-] tlnuance of the same production for six weeks more would malic the half year's out-put 5,350,000 tons or more, abotll 450,000 ton:; greater than in any other half year. The startling fact is that the demand for products of iron and steel falls off. notwithstanding tin- In? crease in out-put of pig. ami though only a few concerns have closed or reduced work or wages on account of la.-k of orders, prices are slnklllgg. hav- 1 inp declined 2.7 per cent, for the week and li.4 percent, from the highest point. Bessemer pig. billets, grey forge, bar. tank steel plates, structural angles and wire nails have nil sold lower within the past week. The woolen lliantlfoc turer has to meet this year with two dlfllculties, tiie remarkable demand for clay worsteds, which has encouraged an advance of Pi p. r cent, in price, and the heavy imports of woolen goods. But sab s of wool continue large in spite of the fact that part of the works are closed or wcnklng only part force.-.-. The cotton mills arc running well and find a very good demand for products, though it is not of late sustained. Print cbuhs have declined a shade. The volume of ib.in. stic trade appears from Clearing-house Exchange 17 per cent, larger titan last year, but 11.4 per cent, smaller than In 1892. llriitlsf reel's Opinion of HllMlllCHM. Tlie condition of general trade con? tinues Irregular ami without material change. There is a distinct falling in demand for Iron and steel, with per? haps the heavies) reaction in quota? tions in these lines reported in any week since Hie late boom in those met? als reached its climax. Central West? ern eiti.s continue to feel the unfa? vorable Influence of unseasonably mild weather, which is true as well of cities at tin- Northwest. Then there is ihe long list of decreases in quotations for merchandise. Tin- converse includes an unexpected Improvement in woollen goods. October gross railroad earnings re? ibet generally improved trade and an especially heavy movement of spring wheat Is He- largest gain shown for any mouths but June and July this y.-ar. With the exception of the Southwest? ern roads ami th-- coalers, which show decreases, every other group shows gains. All l he trunk lines, and nearly all the Southern roads show Increases, tin- latter in spite of the short cotton crop. Ken.-w-.d gold exports, amounting to $3,250.000 for tin- week, hnvc checked ihe bullish tendency of the New York stock market. The selling, however. Is professional, tin- short interest en? larged, and the liquidation apparently completed. Further gold shipments arc expected next week. Hank clearings at cities throughout the United States aggregate $1,171,000, 000 this week. 4 per edit, more than last week. Tb.-re are 27!i business failures report-; 1 d throughout the United States tills week eon.pared with 200 last week. 2SU in the we.-k one y.-ar ago, and as con? trasted with only 265 in Ihe correspond? ing w.-ek of 1892. The Increase In the hUfht>er of failures Ibis week Over last is more than accounted for by Southern and New England States. Other fea? tures Include very generally satisfac? tory mercantile collections East, West, and South, exceptions being con? spicuous by their Infrequency. There Ik a disposition in Hie .Gulf States to market cotton more freely and Texas Cities report a checked volume of busi? ness, resulting from lower prices for cotton. x HARBOR IMPROVEMENTS.

Sixty Days lor Stealing?Wile and Husband 51 rml Tlielr Trouble)*?In the Other Courts. Justice Burroughs' docket In tlic Po? lice Court yesterday was the smallest that haa been before him for several months. Excepting the four drunks there was but live other prisoners and the charge against one of them was dismissed with costs. CAPTURED BY A CLERK, As Mr. H. F. Mllner, a clerk for Mr. James T. Davis, proprietor of a furni? ture store at No. 212 Church street, was passing that establishment late Thurs? day night, he saw a dim light burning I hi the rear of the building. It Is Mr. j Mllner's business to see that all lights! are out before he closes the stole and he remembered that he had put the lights out on the night In question. His sus? picions were, therefore, aroused, and, going Into the rear entrance, he dis? covered a negro thief, and Immediately attacked him. The ncgru fought des? perately and Mr. Mllner bad considera? ble trouble In subduing him. He man? aged to hold him, however, until Olllcer Pentress arrived and placed him under arrest. The burglar was carried to the station-house, where he gave the name of Johnny Boyd. In the Police Court this morning. The evidence against yesterday morning, the evidence against Boyd was conclusive and Justice Bur? roughs sent him on to the grand Jury. COLORED FEMALE PUGILISTS. Two colored females from the tender? loin district, attempted to settle their troubles Thursday night in Corbett Fltzslmmons style on the street, and each of them was getting In some pretty stiff blows on the other when Ollieer Nelson's attention was attract? ed to the disturbance, and he placed them both under arrest, in the Police Court yesterday each accused the other of being the aggressor, u.s Is usually the ease, but as the weight of the evidence was about equal on both sides. Ills Honor fined them each for their disorderly conduct. They were unable to pay the fine and went to Jail In de? fault. SIXTY DAYS FOR THEFT. Another shop lifter on a small scale this time a male, stood before Justice Burroughs yesterday, charged with lar? ceny. The name of the accused Is John Easton, COltired, and he was arrested on a warrant sworn out by Mr. It. Kope land, who keeps a store on West Main street. Mr. Kopeland testified that the negro entered his store on Thursday, pretending to want to buy some goods, and when he thought the proprietor's attention was directed from him, he slipped a pair of pants valued til under his eoal. Mr. Kopeland was loo quick for him, however, and detected him in the net and had htm arrested. Boston's mania seems to be for Steal? ing pants, Judging by the number of pawn tickets found on him when ho was searched, as there were several of them and all for pants pawned, except one. which was foi^a coat. Justice Bur? roughs sentenced him to sixty days in Jail. WIFE AND HUSBAND MAKE UP. One of the detectives was called upon Thursday afternoon by Lavcnla How? ard to arrest her husband. Walter How? ard, colored, oh the charge of beating her. Walter was found at Tltayer'S stables, /where he is employed, and taken to the police station, where he was bailed out for bis appearance lie? fere the Police Court yesterday, When be appeared, however, his wife also ap? peared and staled to His Honor that they had "made up" and she wished the warrant dismissed. Justice Lturrnughs dismissed the warrant upon Howard s paying $i.-t> costs. A SAD SICHT. A white resident of Huntersville named F. A. Ilodklff, said to Up a florist and gardner, stood charged with drunkenness, and Just beside him stood his little live-year-oid boy. who had spent the night In a cell with his father. The man was seen Thursday in a very drunken condition, going from one saloon to another and his little child clinging to him, until lie was finally hrrescd and both he and the little one were driven to the stntioii house in the patrol wagon. Ilodklff I told a pitiful story to Justice Bur? roughs yesterday, stating that his wife, the mother of the little boy. had recently died, and that he left bis home In Huntersville the previous day With his son t.. take him to South Mills, where the boy's aunt lives and who is to take care of him in the future; that he had to wait in Norfolk a few hours for the boat, and while waiting met some old friends who Induced him to join them In a drink: that the drink? ing was kept up until he became In? toxicated, ami fell Into the hands of the police. The man begged with tears in Iiis eyes for mercy for himself and on account of his child who had no where to go if he was sent to jail or fined. Justice Burroughs took pity on him and for the child's sake dismissed the warrant. It is said to be a case of misplaced sympathy, however, as the man was seen drinking alone yester? day, with no friends but the child, and as soon as he was liberated was seen to enter a saloon with the child.

She n ils About What She S?w In tbo Houses Visited by Her Tliursdny Night and Advises All Women to Knter ItcHciic Work?Wo Visit to tlicNIuuifi Last Xigkt. The attendance at the Freemason Street Baptist Cburch last night to hear Mrs. Charlton Edholm'u third i,alk on the "Trafflc In Girls" was larger than on the previous nights, the church being well lilled. ladles being largely in the majority. After the usual devotional bxercises Mrs. Edholm began by referring to her visit oh Tluirsduy night to the slums. She said the object of these visits, she eared, had been nilsconsrued by some people, but if these people hail heard what the girls told her they would be satisfied that it was a proper work. I know you came here because you love these girls, for no respectable woman would enter here except through love, said one of these girls," said the pcaker. She told the story of an erring girl who had been turned out of the house of i Christian woman1 and how that girl afterwards went to the Christian wom iii and told her Hint her husband was the most frequent visitor to the house In which she then lived. For every girl who lives In these houses there are from six to ten men who visit them. It Is not the girls who always tempt boys and young men. but older men must stand this responsibility. We should teach our boys from the cradle tliat they should honor every other boy's sister like he would desire other boys to honor his sister. "Is there a young man who visits these houses who would marry any ol the inmates? No. nut they will come to your houses, court your daughters and marry them. Are you willing that these diseased men shall marry In your family V" Mrs. Edh?lm graphically pictured some of the scenes she had witnessed In the hospitals throughout the country. "Now, will yon try to save these erring girls?" asked the speaker. "For every erring girl makes nine or ten erring young men." Slio spoke of the effects or alcohol on I the human system, and asked why It was that at great banquets attended by the President of the United States, the women had to leave before the liquor was passed around. She said she believed that a boy of I sixteen could be as pure as a girl of thai age. and told r>r visits she bad received from young men and young girls and how they had begun to realize the awful trafllc In girls. Men should do this rescue work. She referred to those who bad accompanied her on the previous night In a highly I complimentary manner. She bcliexcd I tat the best way to make n young man invincible and proof against tempta? tion was to put him Into rescue work, for his association with erring girls in the cause of Christ, would make him a bet lor man. Mrs. Edholm next spoke nf practical work In the way of rescuing these girls. She said there were forty lines of rescue work, um- of these was the flower-day work, when (lowers were taken to men and women confined In prisons. She detailed stories showing the power of llowcrs. Young girls could do this work. They could ivol go out among the slums, but they could do sewing for the girls who bad been sent to the home. She extended a cordial Invitation to men ami women to Join this movement nnd asked for liberal contributions to the cause of rescue work. Mrs. Edholm next took up the temper? ance question; detailing many stories of the effect of drink on both men and' women, When .Mrs. Edholm concluded her ad? dle-:.-; a collodion was taken up and ti good Mini realized. She also sold mativ copies of her book. "Trallio in Girls." the proceeds rrom the sale or which gu Into the general fund for rescue work. Mrs. Edholm did not visit the shuns last nieht. as was expected, but will go out again before she leaves the city. To-night she will talk to men at thf Union Mission, on lower Church str? bill I he ladies arc also invited to be present. Change nf C. ?V Schedule.

The bulk of the work had been done by lite pastors, by benevolent organiza? tions and personal effort. The educa? tional benefits had been great. Col? portage bad prospered beyond the hope of Its friends. The District Conference plan bad been found too meagre and contracted, and bad been abandoned. The paper made contrasts between the work of tin- Baptist 'Board and the Colportage Hoard of this Conference. The educational policy of the Methodist Church was peculiar and the work of the Colportage Board was Mcth'odlstic. The report answered the criticism that there weii> no eolporters In the Held and complimented the work of the Col? portage Hoard in the distribution of the Bible. DR. BARBEE AND THE PRESS. Rev. J. D. Bar bee. the general hook agenl ot the Virginia Conference, look the floor and made an Interesting re? port on the condition ot his work, say? ing that all things were In good order, and the distribution of the products of the publishing bouse was going on In best shape. Dr. Barbee, in referring to the secu? lar press, said that lie was airaid that but for the Sunday newspapers some ministers would be at a loss for some of the gooil things they said Iii their sermons. There was no conflict be? tween the secular and religious pres.-. be said. The secular newspaper reflects opinions, and does not make them, it is like a mirror held up to nature. The religious press does make opin? ions, and the two papers should go band In band. The conference anil congregation listened to Ills address with great pleasure und protlt. TIIIO SUPERANNUATES. The Committee on Conference Rela? tions reported the following as on the superannuated list of ministers: A. M. Hall. .lames A. Lid.lick. Joseph .1. Bd wnrds, Robert X. Crooks, John Me Cloud. \V. A. Robinson, Hierher! T. Bacon, W. A. Croriker. John B. Dev. James it. Waggoner, Thomas P, Wise, James V. Braunol), Thomas .1. Bay ton, Edward M. Jordan. Diivld M. Wallace, Jacob Manning, L. S. Heed. M. L. Clarke. James E. dates, John \V. Crld er. and W. F. Main. The same committee reported these names for the supcrnumcry list of min? isters: W. II. Camper. Thomas H. Early. It. C. Bowles, \V. W. Southnll. and W. E. Grant. Quest Inn L'O. "Are the preachers blameless, etc.." was now asked, and a number of preachers responded to their names, and made their reports, ami their oluirctcrs were favorably passed upon. A LITTLE BREEZE. When the name of Lev. J. R. Grif? fith Ottme up on the list of ministers there arose a little breeze, occasioned by a remark of Rev. I'aul Whitchead, who said it was painful for bltn to have to allude to certain reports concerning alleged financial Irregularities of the reverend gentleman, and he wished tin- matter brought lip and action tak? en by the Conference^ Rev. Mr. Grlfllth expressed himself as ready and willing to meet any sort of charges that might be preferred against him. and said be was able to fully explal and satisfy the proper au? thority of bis correctness of behavior. A committee, composed of Rev. J. B. Hank. W. It. Smlthey. ami YV. KS. Allen, was appointed to Investigate and report. MR. RAY'S CASE. Wie n the question. "What travelling preachers are elected deacons,'' came up the case of Rev. George 11. Ray. Jr.. who was appointed to the Charlottes ville circuit by the last Conference, came up. This preacher decided to leave the Methodist Church, and go to the Presbyterian church and finally to enter the ministry id' that church. East Hanover Presbyterian has declin? ed to take any action out of deference to the Conference until an nfllclal endnr sation of Mr. Bay by ibis Conference. There was something of a tangle of j technicalities in this case, and while the approbation of nu mbers of the per? sonal worth; and sincerity of the young preacher, was expressed freely, there seemed some perplexing details of church law in the matter. It was finally settled by a resolution of the Conference that Mr. Bay lie given bis freedom from the member? ship of the Methodist Church, and a certificate of good standing at thin date given him. FOR DEACON'S ORDERS. Rev; Samuel C. Hutoher, of the Ear ton Height* Church; was passed for deacon's orders, after hen ring his re? port of affairs at his church. Others w ho passed for deacon's or? ders were Messrs. James S. Peters, Ceo. E. Hooker, Jr., and Ernest Hay. There were then elected to deacon's orders Rev. Thomas 10. Johnson and Rev. Charles 1. Gibus! The question of admitting Rev. Er? nest F. Hall, of tho Henry circuit, to rull connection was decided In his favor, and there wore also admitted to the same relationship Rev. Messrs. lt. S. Hunghau. of the Hampton circuit: R. T. Waterfleld, W.'U. Bcauchnmp, V. \V. Proctor, Alfred A. Wliltmore, and James \V. Baker. All these appeared at the rail of the chancel before the bishop, and after making them an eloquent address', ho questioned the candidates with the usual forms of the Methodist Church, After receiving the replies, which were considered satisfactory, the bishop admitted ll.em to full connection with the church. The Rev. J. M. Anderson;,who is Hie chairman ol the Committee of Investi? gation in the case of Rev. George W. Carter, sent in a question to the Hish op. asking "should it Committee of In? vestigation be governed by the law as published in the proceedings of the Gen? eral Conference, or the law as contained in the Discipline?" The Bishop deferred his answer till another time. Rev. A. Coke Smith presented to-day il printed paper to the Conference, being a general statement of the aim and policy of the Guard or Education of the M. E. Church, South. And after singing the Doxology and the Benediction by Dr. llogc, the Con? ference adjourned. The question submitted by the com? mittee investigating Dr. Carter's case was withdrawn later in the day. Dr. Whitehead, It Is understood, hay big abandoned his contention that tin; in? quiry should proceed under the Jour? nal rather than under the law. Dr. Carter's ease is attracting much atten? tion ami dreating no end of talk. He bus warm friends and bitter enemies Conservative opinion seems to be that he cannot be adjudged guilty of Im? morality in COtl tract Rig his third mar? riage nor convicted of any violation of church law. but it Is expected bv mauv that he will be located (that is de? prived of :i charge), which would mean that his last marriage, while hot un scriptural, involved what is called ".Christian inexpediency." and so Im? paired his Influence and usefulness In the church ns t.o render his active connection with the ministry undesir? able. Unless the committee of Inqui? ry shall be a unit, as does not now serin altogether probable, there will be two reports. In this event the mutter will come up In open conference, where the bitter and pungent arguments made last night before the committee will he repeated in public. Thcr will be many changes of promi? nent ministers by Ihe presiding Rlslt lop. and there is much speculation on the subject. court Street, Eyhchburg, will get either Dr. R. X. Slcdd, of Richmond, or Dr. A. Coke Smith, of Norfolk. It' the latter goes to l.ynchburg the former will go either to Main Street. Dan? ville, or Epworth, Norfolk. Dr. Voting, of Richmond, is also mentioned In connection with Epworth. If Dr. Slcdd go.-s to Danville. It is thought Dr. Edwards will be brought lo Broad Street. Richmond. Olliccrs Elected.

The New Orleana; States says that the . :$Sf*\WBn??&'.:* .TUE CUBAN QUESTION AUAIX. Whatever difference of opinion that may'fexlst regarding the position the United States should taue on the Cuban question, the Philadelphia Times Is de? cided In its opinion that this country should- recognize- the insurgents. It says that "It Is a mistaken assump? tion that the patriots of Cuba have no regularly organized government for the establishment of the Cuba Republic. It says elections were held in every part of Cuba where the Insurgents have con? trol to choose delegntes for a national convention, and that body ban estab? lished a complete provisional govern? ment, with a written constitution to ?guide them until the Independence of the Island shall be fully established," It cites further that the Cubans have elected a President, Vice-President, Secretary of War, Minister Plenipoten? tiary, a ?enerat in Chief, Lieutenant General and two Major-Generals- and it thinks that lit view of these facts there 13 every reason why Congress should declare In favor of according the pa? triots belligerent rights. VI 11 it THE TRUSTS. Tho Plttsburg Post says that "The ex? actions of trusts and bthcr trade combi? nations angers the New York Tribune, which urges the coming Congress, so strongly Republican in the House, 'to place before the President a bill which will materially limit the pernlclotisncss of such combinations In the future." The trusts and trade combinations which the Tribune points out are lu the production of steel tails, the wire and cut nnll manufacturers, the makers or bar Iron, and the coke monopoly, strengthened recently by the purchase of other works. It shows that there is no Justification for the advances some of these Interests have made in their products by the power of combination, and it particularly calls attention to the shutting down Of factories to produce tin artificial seurlty." The Virginian believes that "trusts" of whatever character ore ruinous to everyone except those who promote and further them for their own ends, but was it not under Republican rule that they had their birth, and did they not prosper most under that regime? The Tribune Is right In the position It has taken, but it Is doubtful whether its appeal will receive the approval of its Republican friends in the next Con? gress. ltr:i>M TOR KOUTIIEKX PKOUKKMN The Boston Herald, In writing on the subject of the progress of the South? ern country, says that the recent rapid "acceleration of Southern progress is not due to Northern energy, but main? ly to the work of Southerners who were too young to know anything of the war and its pasions, and who were born after its close. In the hands of this generation the South has taken Its first great stride of real progress." The Richmond Dispatch, in reply to what the Herald has to say on the subject, says: "This Is true, and It is not true. Tt is true In so far as It denies that Southern progress Is duo to Northern energy. It is not true, or Is mislead? ing, In so far as is concerned the Inti? mation it would convey regarding the present generation In llie South. The foundation of post bellum Southern progress were laid by tile survivors or the Confederate armies, many of whom, when they turned their faces homeward after the "sunset of Appo niuttox," possessed nothing but the rags they had upon their backs'.' Rich? mond, It says, and it might have added the entire South, affords a notable ex? ample of the truth of Ibis contention. "These men rebullded our waste places, renewed our business connections, re? established our credit, ami reorgan? ized Civil government. Hut for the foundation stones they placed so strong and so deep and cemented with toll and privation, the present superstruc? ture of Southern progress would not have been possible. Nay more; it would not have been possible or orcn tlon even then bad hot this generation inherited the spirit of their fathers." Continuing, our contemporary very truly remarks that "our Northern friends In such utterances as the above from the Boston Herald, mean well, but they are only advancing in another form the "New South" Idea. There is no new South. The snmo blood, brain and energy that made tl-.e South great before the war Is making It great to? day. The young men of to-day nrc simply completing the work their fath? ers cut out for them nfter the war." NOTES AND OPINIONS.

THE P&RK VIEW LOAN Mass Meeting of the Citizens cf the Fifth Ward Helft Last Night. A SERIES OF RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED. riie Council Requested to Petition tkc Legislature to lie Privileged to Issue llon00; we have for the expenses I of the ward In 1890, $4.1110.17. showing r. balance, which may bo expended as in? terest, of $1.713.2S. We have made a very low estimate for Increase by reason of new buildings yet unassessed and n very (literal allow* ance for delinquent taxes. \Ve ha ve not taken Into consideration the balance of $300 now on hand, so that It stems safe to report J2,ono. which can be expend) d as Interest on bonds In 1890. This means nn Issue of 840.000 worth of h per cent, bonds, which can be Bold at a premium. The premium will pay for the expense of printing bonds, etc., leav? ing $i?. In order to obviate additional legisla? tion, when the f/hnnctlll condition of the ward will Justify a larger Issue of the bonds nnd a completion or the Improve? ments contemplated, your commit lee would recommend that the Council be urged to petition the Legislature to be privileged to Issue $100,000 worth of bonds; that they be made In three classes, as follows: $15.000 for school purposes. IfiO.O.OO for paving, and $25.000 for general Improvment; that In 1S!M7 $10.000 in school bonds and $25,010 In general Improvement bonds be market? ed. This would provide school ftic II Itles and do much toward grading the otreels, curbing and stoning; the gutters' and shelling the streets. That the bal? ance of the $100,000 be Issued as rapidly as the financial ability of the ward will allow and the work pushed forward to completion. Of the in, 000 Issued for school purposes $13.000 would buy lots, build and furnish a school house for white, and $2,000 would do the same for the negroes. With the $25.000 it is suggested that the streets be graded, curbed, gutters stoned and center or streets shelled. As to the petition which wo were directed to draft, we respectfully ?fter the following: Fifth Ward, City of Portsmouth, Va. November C. 1S95. To the Council of the City of Ports? mouth: Gentlemen?Whereas, as the end of ten years from January 1, 1894, a prop? erly valued at about $1,500,000 will be? come a part of the city proper: and that It Is the dOSlro of the citizens and taxpayers of this ward that their Streets ho Improved and such other de? velopments made as Is consistent with their financial ability; and that these improvements should he nitida in jus? tice to those on whom will fall part of tlie burden of the indebtedness or the City, proportionate to the value of the ?roperty of the said ward; and that their streets arc now In such condition as to render the use ot lire engines and the protection of the lire depart? ment impracticable; and that the stag? nant water In the ungraded gutters Is a menace to the health of the communi? ty, and that under the new assessment the Income of the ward In 1S9G will he $r>,SS82.? yards wide, for 25 cents.

Business, however, was on a smaller scale than on any previous day of the week, the total sales foot? ing 194,480 shares, against 275,756 yester? day. Sugar for 22,000 shares; Manhat? tan, 17,004, and B. Q., 11,700 shares were sold. At the opening some stocks showed slight gains while others, nota? bly Manhattan, were weak. Later on the pools In the Grangers suportcd their favorites and a firmer tone character? ized the trading. The engagement of 82,250,000 gold for Europe to-morrow all of which will he withdrawn Hum the sub-Treasury, did not alarm legiti? mate holders of stocks, but the profes? sional traders sold rather freely of the Industrials and standard Issues in the resumption of outward movement of the metal. This class of operators arc look? ing for still heavier shipments next week, which they hope will bring about liquidations. Bankers are manifesting no concern about the matter, and ex? pect Intermltent shipments for the next few weeks unless the exports of cotton and grain should happen to assume lurger proportions. The Treasury gold dropped below the ninety million mark, hut It excited only a languid Interest. Both Lazard Pre res and L. Von Hoff? man Co.. who will ship the gold to? morrow, were members of the Belmont Morgan syndicate. The activity of the traders and a rumor that an uptown dry goods firm was In trouble, finally brought about a decline In prices of '4 to 8 per cent.

Chicago, 111.. Nov. 15.?The range In prices in wheat to-day, of n cent, Il? lustrated the quietness and Inactivity which prevailed In that market through? out the session. The Now York and Seaboard orders, generally, weres to buy, whilst the attitude of local trad? ers was notably averse to advancing prices. All the big operators when they traded at all, displayed a marked pref? erence for selling rather than buying. Yesterday's closing weakness was car- 1 i led into the opening transactions this morning. The joint action of European powers in reference to Turkey allayed any fears of political entanglements,! abroad, consequently destroying what ever help prices had been receiving from that consideration. Late In the session there was free selling of the near deliveries in corn evi? dently in liquidation. The main factor, however, in defining the course of1 prices was the downward trend of wheat. In the,May there was less ac? tivity than in 'the nearby options and prices varied but one-eighth of a cent all day. May corn opened at 20% and closed at 29%, the range being bounded by those quotations. The loss for the day was }fc cent. The general dullness of all specula? tive articles cn the lloor was not re- lloved by anything that happened in oats. The tone averaged steady, a1 slightly easier feeling existing at the close. This wus due to the weaker tono of wheat and corn. Provisions?The opinion was ventured I by a prominent commission man that this was the dullest day ever known In provisions. There had been so much Inactivity In this market that It is ques- tlonable whether the claim was accurate I or not. Be that as It may, there was I practically nothing doing and prices scarcely moved at all. At the close Jan? uary pork and ribs were a shade lower I nnd January lard unchanged. Domes? tic markets were quiet and steady. Opening. Highest. Lowest. Closing. Wheat? November '.'i MT.; 61)2 Corn? lanmiry.27$4j 27'?

A Thoroughly Interesting Letter.ln Which the Exposition at Atlanta Is the Subject. CITY OF NORFOtk WELL REPRESENTED. Tho Fair t* Described u? Heilig i\s Renutf Ril nv- Spectacle nn ttio IlniKl of SI mi Cnn Devise, IleSiig Intensely I'lenslng to Thoio'Who i'nu Ap predate tho Picturesque. Atlanta. Gb? Nov. 15.?(Special.)? Those who have not hart the good for? tune to visit the great Cotton, States and International Exposition, now be? ing held In this city, have any idea of the magnitude and scope of the affair. Tttere has been a prevalent idea through? out the country that the Atlanta Fair Is only a local show, but those who have been to the Exposition nnd returned to their homes have told their friends of the great mlstaki they have made In not going. Instead of being local, the Exposition is international in its char? acter, ail the prominent nations of the .civilized world being represented. The result of this disillusioning of the people is that every day greater crowds pour into the city and the railroads havo their hands full to accommodate tho Increased passenger traffic. The site on which tho Exposition is built is much more picturesque than ?was the World's Fair. Instead of a lev? el plat, the buildings rise above each other on vast terraces, the undulating perspective and the winding roads be? ing Intensely pleasing, alike to eyes that have and have not been especially strained to appreciate the picturesque in architecture and situation. The buildings are colored white nnd Hl.lit gray, and during the day when the sun Is shining, the fountains playing, and the flags of all nations waving iff the breeze, the scene is one never to be forgotten. But; If possible, the grounds at night are more beautiful than ever and an entirely different scene presents itself. There nre myriads of electric nrc-llghts, blazing on the grand plaza and the roadways. The macsnlfict nt buildings are blotted out. but their out? lines are preserved by chains of daz? zling incandescent lights. To this scene let-there be added the magnificent lire works and thfe magical 'multi-colored eloctrlc fountain, all mlrruocd on the placid bosom of the lake, arm you have seen as beautiful a spectacle as the hand of man can devise. VIRGINIA. AT THE FAIR. Tho people of "Virginia have not taken the same lively ihtercst in the Exposi? tion manifested elsewhere throughout' ttie Southern Stutes, and If had not la-en for the noble work of the women, the Old Dominion would have been very, poorly represented. Notwithstand? ing this, however. Virginia day and the week the military boys and Governor O'Ferrall remained in the'city will long be remembered here as one of the brightest periods of tho Exposition. A largo number of Atlnntlans are Vir? ginians, both by birth and descent. These are very proud of their native Stato and did all in their power to make the stay of the "F. F. V.'s" a i pleasant one. From all accounts, they succeeded admirably. THE LADIES' EXHIBIT. On the second floor of the Woman's building, in the southwest corner. Is the Virginia room. It Is beuutlfully deco? rated and completely filled with the handiwork of Virginia women. In this rddm there is a large glass case filled with beautiful embroidery work done in various kinds of material. The Wo? man's Work Exchange, of Richmond, has a few pieces in tho exhibit, but three-fourths of it is made up of arti? cles, contributed from the district sur? rounding Norfolk, which were collect? ed by Mrs. C. A. Nash. It would be Im? possible to describe the beautiful things in this case, as each piece deserves es? pecial mention of merit. Some of the handsomest work I saw, however, was done by the following Norfolk ladies: Mrs. F. L. Grandy, Miss Sarlonis, Miss Vermilllon, Mrs. Thomas Brouglnon, Miss Annie Dey, Mrs. C. D. Jordan, Miss Belle Tunstall and many others. The exhibit of fancy work has been greatly admired by the throngs aS visitors and Mrs. Nash has entered the work with the jury of awards for pre? miums. From several remarks mnde by members of the Jury she is contl dent the work will receive the highest honorable mention. In the Virginia room there Is also a closet of hand painted china, also collected from Norfolk and the imme? diate vicinity by Mrs. Nash. The work Js- beautifully done. Some of the most prominent pieces In this collection were contributed by the following Norfolk ladles: Miss Florence Smith, Miss Liz ft zie Wales, Miss Vaughan and Miss Denby. 'i On the walls of the Virginia room hang several handsome water colors done by Miss Madge Lamb and a small VCbll painting of a colonial maiden from the brush *f Miss Annie Wales. Nor folk has by far the finest exhibit from /."Virginia, and the people of the "City by the Sea" contributed more money to 'the woman's department than any city ?;.;?r district In the State, Richmond in eluded. There Is also In the Woman's build? ing, a beautifully appointed colonial tea room, which is managed Jointly by the ladles of Virginia and Illinois. Delight? ful refreshments are served and from this the ladles derive the revenue to maintain the exhibits. THE COLONIAL EXHIBIT. In the Colonial Hall of the Woman's building there is a large exhibit of colonial relics collected from Tide? water Virginia by Mrs. Hugh N. Page, ff~{of Norfolk. The Norfolk city mace, which was presented to that cltv in 1753 by Hon. Robert Dinwiddle, and which Is Included in the above exhibit, has attracted more attention than any ?V- other single relic in the hall. In the exhibit there are also two in 1 terestlng swords, worn in the Revo? lt', lntlonary war. One of these was worn B by Captain William Porter, of Portfc Sjl inout'.i, and the other by Major General H William Campbell. These swords ,are ?Know owned respectively by Mr. John W. SZhH Porter, of Portsmouth, and Mr. Wll ?ttTam Campbell Preston, of Norfolk. The MBematndt.r of the exhibit Is made up of SB&Muttful miniatures and relics, too nu Hfcrima to mention. ?Hl I.vtDPEL OF A SHIP YARD.

Included In this exhibit there are also several large photo? graphic views of the interior of the buildings, an oil painting of the new Norfolk and Washington steamer "New? port News," and a model of the big steamship "El Bud," both of which were built by this concern. THE NEC HO EX HI HIT. The negroes of Virginia have made a most creditable exhibit lit the Negro building. The largest single exhibit In the building Is that of the Hampton Normal Institute, which Is made up Of work done by students in the different branches. In the Virginia exhibit there Is also a complete model of the U. 8. 8. Raleigh, made by W. R. Smith, a colored steward on the U, S. It. 8. Franklin at the Nor? folk Navy Yard, and a handsome silk quilt made by Caroline Reeves, an old colored woman, SO years of age. K. T. 8. Among Our Cotton .tlrn. Clear, cool weather In the'Southwest.
