While the Harae Show Is attracting fash-lonable croads to Madison Square Garden and everybody who ha a right to typify ao-ciety la talking the most learned and profound variety of horse Information possible, one of the minor reflexes of the equestrian mondc has gracefully.

If only temporarily, capitulated to the hard times, to fashionable capriciousness, and to other -discouraging influences. Tattersalls Exchange, in Seventh Avenue, which bu been so long and so ably conducted as an American branch of the famous English Institution of that name by Mr. "William. Easton. has for use during the Winter been converted into a sort of ecological garden.

In which the well-known Hagenbaclc collection of trained wild beasts will be exhibited and put more or less hilariously through their paces. In a very few days the seventeen lions, eight or ten trained tigers, and an uproarious but comparatively docile assemblage of leopards, panthers. Jaguars, hyenas, and other interesting quadrupeds, addicted In their crude state to a diet equally raw, will there be In vivacious evidence. These Hagenbaclc wild beasts enjoy a tremendous European reputation and come directly from the Midway Plaisance of the rW'orld's where they divided the honors with the tattooed Sa moans, the ladles of his Dahomeyan Majesty's body guard, the corps de ballet from Cairo, and the Pan-Ethnic Convention of Beauty from our own irrepressible and all-conquering Bowery. It Is true that one of the animals, a recent debutante In the polite society of the felldae, so far forgot Itself while in Chicago as thoughtlessly to engulf a large portion of a lady lion tamer in its capacious maw.

But such outre and unmannerly behavior was instantly resented by the Hagenback management and Incontinently punished, since which act of castigatlon the morals and manners or the entire collection nave been absolutely unexceptionable. The substitution of a wild-beast show for the equine and social glories of Tattersalls. however, has made quite a stir among the elite, who have not been slow to wonder at the transformation scene which has been wrought at the corner of Fifty-sixth Street and Seventh Avenue. Some of the more Impetuous took It for (ranted that there is no room in New-York ven for a branch of the colon sal establishment which is the pride and focal centre of the thousands of horsemen and horsewomen Of all England. But the metamorphosis, it seems, is not.

after all. quite so radical as It has been taken to be. Mr. Easton was absent when a reporter for The New-York Times visited the exchange to ascertain the cause and nature of the alteration. He was, however, very fitly represented by his confidential secretary, Mr.

Roscoe, who said, with a smile: It is undeniably true that we are going to retire, for twelve weeks, from business here, in order to accommodate Herr Hagenback' menagerie, and it is equally true that we do so in the interests of economy. We are not going to give up the exchange for good, however. Nor will Mr. Tattersall name be taken down. Mr.

Easton will continue to carry on the business -of the leading horse mart in the world, and when the Spring returns we shall renew our auction sales. During- the Winter all local sales, such as they are, will take place at Madison Square Garden, and Mr. Easton will travel all over the country, disposing of first-class stock at auction, whenever he may be summoned by the breeders." exchange, you say. will remain under his control?" Inquired the reporter. Seyond Question." replied Mr.

Koscoe. The Hagenback people pay us a good long price for the use of the premises during our dead months. Instead of having to carry thenv at a tremendous expense for iJV? have to Py ls formidable whether it brings us in a dollar or not we are now going to have great relief from the strain. During December. January, and Febru-we shall be letting the place at a Sroflt.

Just as soon as Mr. Easton returns from his European trip, which he Ina, 'ear to buy thoroughbreds and other first-class horses for our aristocratic clients, we shall resume possession of tne premises and renew our system of auction sales. The building in which the.

Hagenback animals are to court a cautious and by no TLS faaiUiar Popularity has been through WM buUt for Panorama, which throve there indififerently well for aome time. Then it became a carriage repository. From this estate It was promoted by the tireless energy of Mr. Easton to be the rendezvous of faahiun in Its horse-dealing mood. It became, under his auspices, 1thea-tr delightful spectacles, in which the best-bred animals and the best-bred men and women In town met to make, each others acquaintance, and, on occasions, pass inseparably into each others' company.

It 1 only fair to say that the scheme of the National Horse Show germinated at Tattersalls. which has ever since been a Very nursery of the horse Idea in society. The change from such a phase to that of a miniature arena, in which the man-killing ferae naturae are to edify and reassure the fine flower of the social world -wttfe pacific essays in gymnastics, pantomime, and the dance, is quite a marked one and will be watched, no doubt, with acute interest by the fashionable especially in view of the fact that horseflesh wlU, for the next three be dealt in on a pound-avoirdupois basis.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 13. While services were progressing In St. Paul's German Catholic Church Sunday evening the congregation began to grow drowsy and stupefied. Suddenly one of the a 'tar boys reeled and fell.

Strangely enough, this had no effect on the crowded worshippers. About this time. Joseph Balgenortb, who sat In the auditorium, realized that the church was being flooded with gas from one of the Urge main burners, the stopcock of which ne observed was open. You are suffocau lng from escaping gas! he shouted. This aroused the people, and.

panic-stricken, they rushed for the doors. Many persons were slightly bruised in the crush. Father Adel-man coolly continued the services, the ushers threw open the windows, and finally the congregation became quiet again. Nearly every one who was in the church last night complained to-day of severe pains in ihe head, and some of the women are prostrated. w-Braaswlck's Tribute to Valor.

Sometimes he collected 3.ouO. and even B.0uu. in a day. Mr. Waterlow was unwilling to talk about his son's death last evening.

When asked how it was that no money or watch was found on his son when he died. Mr. Waterlow replied that he had been told by -the Police Sergeant that the watch was on the dead man. He had spent the previous night at his sister's house. What did your son die of? Mr.

Water-low was asked. I was told that he died of lung and heart trouble." replied Mr. Waterlow, and then he added, You must excuse me," and closed the door. HO EDEFEN8E BY BEOKEE PATTOH. Judgment for S54.928.09 Secured by the Executors or the Craig Estate.

Ex-Premier Mercler. being twitted in Parliament with disloyalty on- his first appearance there since public utterances in the United States, has boldly averred himself in favor of Canadian independence, which, he claimed, would make Canada what it has made the United States. Ridiculing the charges of disloyalty, he said that loyalty of Canadians ws.s not due in the first Instance to Great Britain, but to Canada. Moreover, the British claimed the right of free speech, and he Insisted, while a British subject, to enjoy his rights as such. Sir A.

T. Gait, Sir John Rose, and other Canadians, he said, who were subsequently loaded with- imperial honors, had early in life declared, like him. for Canadian independence.

President Bl itut Will Not Bear th Whole Reeponslb llty and Let Others Con- cerned denco Retire to the Background EtI- that Outsldo Pressor TVaa Brought Bient to Shapo to Bear oa Him The State- In Grand Jury Being Pat la Presented. Kot far from turns out to be th mount of tbe blunder the wreekers took from the Madlaoa Square Bank la tbe twenty months they had control. Probably nothing short of searching cross-examination eaa trace exactly khla money, but the testimony. both of the bboks of tbe bank aad ef tbos who have spoken with regard to its manage ment, leaves nfc doubt that President Blautgoi his full share. The receivers are devoting themselves to finding means i by which the liabilities of th bank to its depositors aad to th Clearing House may bej discharged.

Tbey eome in eon- tact more or less with lawyers employed by various Interest concerned in the settlement of affairs aad through them they have been able to get a pretty good Idea ef the way th bank was ruined, apart from the story the account books ten. There Is no Idonbt that President Blast was able to twist Cashlar Thompson, Assistant Cashier flelovtir. and various other person i te his own purposes.

A general disposition has appeared among the Directors to let President Blaut bear the brunt of the prosecution. Mr. Blaut. on the other band, la nn willing to be made the eeapegoat for otber men, and a (tool part of his time la given to letting those who would stead aside know that be Intends to bear only suoh share of responsibility as most tlx lteeit to him. while that which properly attache to ethers must oe carried on ineir snouiuersi Tbe figures kt the books show that when President Cryder retired from the bank two years ago the I bank was very close to bank-rnptey.

Its assets on tbe books showed capital and surplus, a total of eu.uuu. in looking over the assets, tne new management feund about $160,000 consisted of seeurlties that bad small values in the market, aad that a dummy loan of $39,000 la addition atood among thaee assets, reduela tbe beak's property which was immediately available to not far from S21.OU0. Mr. Biant nrouoaed to reorganize by Increas ing the eaplialfstock to SoOO.OOO, placing In tne treasury uuu.wu and adding surplus. This i reuld have mad total assets of $471,000.

Inatead of tbat tbe books ihow that of the proposed of new capl tal was not paid for in cash, but in no es agslnst whloh the stock tbos Issued was deposited with tbe bank as collat eral. So far as pas yet appeared, the remaining $100,000 of new capital waa secured in cash ana an indenaite amount of money was also secured for surplfia Whatever tbel total of eash or other valuable asset mar hari been when tbe aobeme of reor aanlzattou was I carried out. it ia now eertain tbat under Mi Biaut's management these asset were entirely destroyed.

Little Not Afraid of aa Inquiry Info the Story of Uer Husband's Nephew. HnrritcTow. L. Nov. 15.

Capt James Little ef this village, wbo died oa Saturday at the home or his nephew, Leon M. Little, in Sew-York, was hurled this afternoon in tha Huntington Bural Cemetery with Masonic ritsa. Services were held at tbe grave by the Rev. B. Hall, pastor of the Vnlversalist Church.

The closing prayer was said by tbe Bev. Van Vliet Putnam, pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church, of which Mra Little la a member. Nearly everybody in the village attended the servlcca Mrs. Little wae too ill to be present, liar mother, Mrs. JTinlar.

was the only member of the household In attendance, as Mr. Flnlay was also too ill to be present Leon M. Little and his wife were In the village, hut kept away from the cemetery daring tbe service. His beast that he would have tbe local authorities hold an antopsy apon his uncle's body In order to support his statement that tbe dead man had died from alow poison administered by Mrs. Little proved an Idle one.

Tbe only step be took In that direction was to ask a citizen tbe name of tbe Coroner here. When he talked to people about tbe alleged terrible sutleiings of his uncle at the bauds of Mrs. Little, he secured very little attention, and. It Is said, he only escaped a thrashing by his early departure. Tbe dead man's wife Is highly spoken of by everybody here, and the nephew's charge that she poisoned her husband is not credited, A reporter for Tbe New-York Times saw Mrs.

Little at her pretty borne this evening; She said that Mr. Little went to his nephew's oa Nov. 1. She did not visit blm until the day before his death. A letter received by her did not speak very encouragingly of his condition, and she hurried to New-York and summoned Dr.

J. Sawyer Turner of Brooklyn, wbo thoroughly understood Mr. Little' case. As she bad never vle-ited the nephew's family she waited at the Continental Hotel for tbe doctor's report. Tbe physician was astounded at his patient condition.

He said that Mr. Little did not have long to live, and his wife went to the house at once. Mr. Little died the following night, and his body waa taken to the Maaoolc Temple, where services were held. Mra.

Little found It there, but before she got poaseealon of the body she had to appeal to outsiders to assist her. Finally the body was taken to Long Island City aad placed on a train. Just a the train was about to start, tho train hands started to take It from the car, but tbey returned it wben Mra Little produced ber permit, sbe could not ascertain who ordered tbe removal of tbe body. Mra Little Indignantly denied Leon Utile's ebargea She Bare that before the body or ber huaband was cold the nephew displayed the dead man's watch and chain and said: L'nele Jim said I was to have tbeae." He wanted $425 to meet a drart he said his uncle had promised to take up for him. tbe said Mr.

Little suffered from chronlo gastritis, and tbat be i bad often toid tbe doetors who had treated him tbat when he died they must perform an autopsy to ascertain if a fall he sustained from a tree two years ago had anything to do with hi illness. She expressed berseV as perfectly willing to have the Coroner or an) otber olticial Investigate tne cause of his death. The morphine habit, she said, had been acquired by Mr. Little many months She had. by the doctor'a orders, given him very small doses at times wben he suffered pains In his back.

She says he wss given tbe drug in much larger doaes after he left his home. Mra Little said her husband made a will after tbelr marriage ten years ago, and If tbe nephew had Influenced his unole to make a new will while ia New-York It would not hold, aa Dr. Turner waa oonvlnced that ho was out of his mind when he saw him. An Inquiry by the District Attorney. An investigation, Into the death of James E.
