shnli carefully and for many reasons keep myself to myself. I sea in my mind that wretched sultan whom God has givon as a curso to mankind waving his Hag in triumph, and the adversaries at his leet are Russia, Francs and England. "As to the division of shame among them, care little enough, hut hope that my own country will, tor its own good be made conscious and exhibited to the world lor its own full share, whatever that may be. "May God, in his mercy, send a speedy end to the governing Turk and all his I said when I could say and even sometimes do, so 1 say in my political decrepitnde or death! always sincereiv voiirs, (Signed) WILLIAM IS, GLADSTONE." BANKS AND BUSINESS The Week's Statement as a Whole Is Not Encouraging NEW YORK, Oct. Financier this week: There were no changes of importance in the statement made by tbe associated banks of New York for the week ending October 26th, the principal features being the continued decrease ot loans and the increase of in specie.

As a large number of barks were below the required 25 per cent reserve on the previous week, the contraction in loans were lo have been expected. There was some liquidation of loans from mercantile sources, however. The loans of the Now York city banks at the close of the cur-ent week stood practically at the same Sgure repurted.on June Ist. Orders were received by several foreign houses to place the suras of money, aggregating several million dollars, on'time, but as the rate demanded was too high the funds were crapolyej on call loans, creating a temporary weakness in the market. The hanks showed an actual increase of in cash hold ings during the week; lbe loss of $308,000 in legal tenders being more than compensated by the gain of $1.2011,800 in specie.

The sudden increase of the latter may be ascribed as much lo iocal transfers and the shifting of funds as any other cause. Tho deposits for the past week show a falling off of and the eifect of the week's operations has been to increase tlie reserve to $1,350,000. The statement as a wholo is not encouraging and reflects conditions which appear rather narrow. Bankers cannot believe that the heavy niovemr of money is over and a higher rate is looked for wi hin the next month. Sterling exchange continues high and we seem to be at a stage where it would take hut little to turn the tide either way.

OFFICERS HUNTING HOBART The Arizona Desperado Failed to Cover His Tracks The Public Is Aroused Because Numerous Murders Have Occurred Recently. Threats of Lynching PRESCOTT, Oot. have been scouring the country for Hobart, the desperado, ever sinca ten minutes after the murder of John Miller on Thursday evening, but not until this morning was any definite clue obtained of him. Last nignt at 8 oclock the horse ridden by the desperado on the night ol the murcor retnured, and his condition showed that he bad not been ridden hard. This morning a telephone message was receivsd from Chnpparel stating that a man answering to his description had been mot last night on foot within three miles of Mayer's station, or only about twenty-live miles from Prescott.

On receipt of the news sheriff Ruffner, with throe deputies and two Indian trailers, started immediately in pursuit and telephoned from Ohapparel this afternoon that a fulior description obtuined the man met last night from purtios who met him, corresponds exactly with that of Hobart. The ofheors mounted fresh horses and pushed forward as rapidly as possiole, hoping to overtako him this evening. Hobart is armed with a Winchester and carries a belt full of cartridges, and unless surprised oy the officers it is thought he will make a desperate Hehii for his life. Public feeling is considerably worked up over the murder and talk of lynching bim ia indulged in, if he is brought back alive. Sentiment is strong from the fact that within the past fow months six murders have been committed in this section.

One of the murderers was killed by officers while trying to escape, two are in jail under conviction and sentence of death, awaiting appeal to the Biipreme court, while two others are in jail awaiting trial. MADE A CLEAN BREAST OF IT But His Pockets Have Already Been Cleaned Out Secretary Orr of the State Insane Asylum $10,000 Office la Declared Vacant STOCKTON. Oct. expert appointed to exomine the accounts of Major Orr, the secretary ana treasurer of the board of directors of tho state asylum For tho insane for the past thirteen years, today reported a shortage of $10,192. The offics was deolared vacant today and a hank officer was appointed to succeed Orr, to make a demand on hiiu for the money.

Major Orr has been tho treasurer and secretary for thu past thirteen years, and during that time ho has not made a report about the funds, and the directors have never called for a report. Six weeks ago Director Steffons noticed erasures in the accounts that excited his suspicions, and the examination of the books was made on his suggestion. The shortage is mainly in the account of moneys received from patients delivered at the asylum, and cleans out a fund that has been accumulating for twenty years or more. The directors will demand the money from his bondsmen, but they will not pay without a contest, claiming that ttey are not liable beyond the term of four years. Orr has held on as a continuous officer, but other otlicers and tbo doctors are for four-year terms, and he gave only one bond many years ago.

The secretary and treasurer is elected to during the pleasure of the board. Major Orr made a clean breast of tbe defalcation wben charged wilb it the directors and did not give any excuses. A director says the major did not how much ho was short, and wben (lie amount was stated to him it staggered bim. It is said that tbe shortage dales back to 1885, aim that it commenced by the ollicer taking small sums which he expected to make good out of bis monthly salary of $50, and when he found be could not make it good he lost hope and went deeper, tie did not save a dollar, but spent the money in conviviality. Mafor Orr has been a prominent citizen heie for many years and is an able man.

Ho was in tbe newspaper business a number of years and recently was a delegate to the free silver convention in San Francisco.

FROM THE KAISER'S REALMS Church Dedication and Opening of Law Court RIGHT IS RIGHT IN SAXONY Tbe Imperial Speech at the Military Banquet Iron Discipline to Be Observed Even In Times of Cry for Relief Associated Press Special Wire BERLIN, Oct. 18fi, by the Associated the dedication of the Emperor Frederick Memorial church and the Empress Augusta monument, the empress appeared in public here for the til st time since her illness which commenced at the Kiel fetes, being brought, on by ovor-cxertion upon that occasion. Tho fact (hat her majesty had grown considerably thinner nnd paler was commented upon on all sides. Indeed, the health of the empress is still delicate, and that is the reason why her urthday, October 22, was observed in the most strict family seclusion.

The usual congratulations and other ceremoniea were omitted ami even the gala performance prepared for the opera which was tj give the reopening of the renovated theater a certain eclat, did not take place. The physicians in attendance on her majesty have strongly advised her to carefully avoid all excitement and late hours in order to fully recover hei health. A curious featurojof the dedication ceremonies was the choral sung ill the church, Wben the Lord Mentis a Cross Let Us Patiently Boar It, composed by a boy IS years old, Feeder yon Willich, who, when suffering from tho same oomplalnt as Emperor Frederick, sent it to the latter. Voting Willich died at the same time as Emperor Frederick. Emperor William opened the new supremo law court of tho empire at Lei pale today.

His majesty arrived at noon and was received al tho station by the King of Saxony. The two sovereigns walked together down tho front uf the guard of honor and then drove through tho town to tho new law court building. Tneir majesties were heartily cheered by tho crowds who lined the route, wnich was profusely decorated and lined oy troops, military associations and school children. The chiefs uf the various government departments and the federal councillors were present at tho Uw court, where the arrival of tho monarchy was announced by a flourish uf trumpets. I'rince Hohenlohe, tho imperial cban; cellor, rend the which were (iep.jstled beneath the last stone of the buildings in which reference was made to the impending unification of the judicial system of tho country through the institution of a civil code.

They expressed tlie hearty desire that by its verdicts the supreme court will "contribute to the universal triumph of justice, right and honesty und moy tney nourish in all German towns." Baron Kastner, the Bavarian minis ter, then handed a trowel to the the president of the reienstag, Baron yon Bust Brenberg, his majesty with mallet with which he struck the stone th rice and Said: tbe name of the Triune Cud; right shall remain right in Saxony." Tbe emperor again tapped the stone and the ceremony was concluded with "hoohs" for the emperor and tbe king of Saxony, the judges of the supreme court and the president of the reienstag. At the banquet which was subsequently given the main ball, his majesty expressed the satisfaction with tbe new law court building and drank to its prosperity, Tlie emperor also drank to the health of Prince Hohenlohe and' other guests. All accident occurred at the Dresdener railroad station during the evening. The depot was packed with people anxious to witness the emperor's departure antl tho great pressure of the crowd bore down on the iron railing guarding the platform. A boy was killed and many people were injured by the overturning of people which followed.

Princo Rismarcks health at present is sxcellent. He walls and drives dnily nd seems to have quite recovered fr im his recent illness. Dr. Scbwelnnlnger, nis physician, owing to ill health, has been compelled to abandon most of bis practice and will remain at Fredrichsruhe until tbe end of the year. The eniper.ir during tlie week spent a few oaya in shooting on the estate of Herr yon Wedel, chief of the imperial household, at Prcsdml.

Next week his majesty will lake part In the b.ittuesof Philip you Luelnberg' Bpreserve at Liebenourg. The chief topic of the newaspapers' discussion during tbe pust week has been tlu new battalions. Tho secretary for war is not satisfied with their operations or utility and the military experts declare that tjieir purpose, forming cadres to lie called upon in case, of war, is far from practicable. The emperor desires to have the half battalions made whole ones, hence the Liberal Socialist press talk of ti forthcoming new military bill. Tbe full text of bis majesty's spoech at tho military banquet at Metz is now published .111 the somi-offlcal Hamburger Correspondent, and in its wording it is quite sensational.

lie said among other things: "1 expect during limes of peace a strict observance of iron discipline. It is only by the old-time Prussian use of the offensive that we may hope to attain auytiiine." By special imperial edict the copies of the rules governing tbo tteatment of recruits are being made ready for tho commander of each regiment to hand to his subordinate officers. This action is being taken on account of the number of cases of cruel treatment of recruits which have recently been made public. The secretary of husbandry, Haron Yon Lnxten. at a uanquet given to It at Kalisbon recently udmilted the aire need of relief leit by German husbandly, but said that Count Yon Kanltz'n bill would be no cur" foi It.

The lalling prico of silver, he Slid, was grave danger hut the government was considering means to counteract it. This speech has not pleased the Agrarians, who want his reasons for denouncing the Kanitz bill. In reply to many recent complaints German exhibitors at the Chicago world fair that their prizes and medals have no yet arrived here, Or. Bosso, the ininistir of public instruction, has issued ictttr stating that tbe prizes could not bo lor some time to come. The exposition of California fruit products, which dosed Wednesday, has been commercially, very successful, and a similar hut larger exhibition of American fruit products" has been arranged for next spring at Berlin and London.

THE VENEZUELAN CLAIMS Should Have Been Enforced With a Maxim Gun The British Ultimatum Has Not Reached Monday the Venezuelan Cabinet Will Be Named WASHINGTON, Oct. uction of the British Guiana autborites in rejecting by a vote of 10 to 8 the policy urged by British Minister Chamberlain lor arming tbe Venezuelan frontier with Maxim guns, as exclusively told in tbe Associated Press dispatches, excites interes! in Official and diplomat 0 circles. It Is said to he a most unusual course for the colonial government to reject, tbe advice of tne home government on questions of important public policy, it appears also that following the adverse action in British Ouiana the London foreign office cabled directions to Sir Charles governor-general of the colony, to return to London, ft is stated here that this was equivalent to a recall and tbe belief is expressed that it Indicates thedlsprpvalof the London authorities ol tho Intoility of the governor-general to carry out tbe policy laid down by Minister Chamberlain, 'l be position ot the governor-general is ono of lUflh dignltv that it is not usual to summon him to London merely for eorsnltatlon although this happened when tlie Venezuelan ouestion reached a critical stuge in 1811. Among those in position to ho best informed the belief its quite positive that Sir Charles has been recalled nnd that the action of the Guiana council is the direct cause of it. The governor-general is now (di his way to London.

The British ultimatum has Jnot yet reached Caracas, The understanding here is that it was forwaided irom London to Berlin aim thence by steamer Irom Hamburg to La Gnayra.

Britain was yesterday unexpectedly tumbled into a big war scare by a dispatch to the Times Irom Hongkong, telling of tho sharp movement made by Russia in getting a firm grip on China, and at the same time Great Britain was suddenly plunged into the midst of real winter weather with a heavy fall ol snow in the north. The war scare and the cold weather still prevail, rivaling each other in their efforts to monopolize public attention, with the former bavin; a little tho best of it- Many people here wnoae opinions are worth weighing do not hesitate to say that Great Britain, if the news turned out lo be correct, was facing a crisis equal GOVERNOR BUDD HAS APPOINTED HI.T LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR in gravity only to tbe one which preceded the Crimean war.

For years she has taken great Interest in the development ol Japan, Corea and China. The interests of John Hull und Cousin Jonathan are identical. Neither desires to disturb the statu quo.

Should the Times' Hongkong dispatch be conlirmed and the czar's advisers unfortunately persevere their determination to disturb the balance of power in the far east, Japnn will look for friends, and thoso friends are obviously Great Britain nnd the United States.

roads of the Western Passenger association now declare that the organisation of the association is a practically estnblisned fact, although they admit that thero are differences which may operate to knock the agreement into a cooker) hat.

The Atchison has declared repeatedly that it will join nothing that dees not comprehend the territory west of the rivor as well as east of it.
