BANK FAILURE.
Tight Money Market Compels a Tempo
rary Suspension.
New York, November 12th.—Notwith
standing the announcement e.rly in the
day that the North River Bank would tide
over the losses of yesterd oTT, and had made
satisfactory arrangements vith tbe Clear
ing-house, that institution closed its doois
at 2:15 p. m., and posted the following no
tice: "This bank has suspended tempo
rarily." All efforis to obtain further in
formation frcm the officers" were futile.
The doors were locked, and a number of
depositors weie congregated in front of tbe
building, much exercised over tbe sudden
suspension. At 3 p m. tbe Bank Examiner
hud taken charge of the bank.
The North River Bank is a member of
the Clearing house, and operates under a
State charter granted in 1542. It applied
again to-day to the Clearing-house for a
loan, and a committee was on its way to
examine into the condition of the institu
tion, when it was iearned that it wa? in the
hands of the Bank Examiner, who is to
night overhauling the accounts. It is
stated that the bank officials expect to open
up for business tomorrow. The cause of
the present diffieul y is simply tight
money. On account of the mention of the
North River Bank as one of the defaulters
at the Clearing-house yesterday, the de
positors started a quiet, but steady run on
it this moruing. The bank stood it out
until 2:30 p. M., when the ready money was
exhausted, and it had to close its doors. It
did an average business of $3,000,000.
The examiners said late to night that
they had not concluded the examination of
the books, and could make no statement.

Rumors That Jay OouM Etas Secured
Control of the Union Pacific.
Boston, November 12th. — President
Adams, of the Union Pacific, in an inter
view with the Associated Press reporter in
regard to the statement published thi3
morning that Jay Gould bad secured con
trol of the Union Pacific, said he was ab
solutely ignorant of the alleged fac.s in the
Gould interview, and greatly questioned
whether Gould ever made the remarks at
tributed to him.
A Director of the Union Pacific said he
did not believe a word ot the story.
George Gould refused to talk this morn
ing in regard to the report tbat his father
had secured control of the L'nion Pacific.
Jiussell Sage expressed a belief lhat Gould
had obtained control of the road and said
that was just what was needed to straighten
out the railroad situation.
The Evening Post says: The story about
the Union Pacific passing inio the control
of Gould not only lacks confirmation, but
we have most po.-itive and unquestionable
proof that the whole story is merely an in
vention. Nevertheless, we have also good
reason for believing a majority of the stock
holders are dissaiisfitd with the present
management and '.hat a move will soon be
made to break up the contract with the
Northwestern.
ATCHISON, TOPEKA ASD SANTA FB.
Boston, November 12th.—The News Bu
reau telegraphed Magoun, President of the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, as to the
reports of arrangement with the Missouri
Pacific to strengthen the railroad situation,
and inquiring if uny interchange of Di
rectors is likely, and he replied: "All the
southwestern lines have agreed to strengthen
rates, and efforts are now being made to
join all lines west of Chicago and St. Louis
—inoluding southwestern, northwestern
and all transcontinental lines—npon a like
basis, namely: A small General Com
mittee to control rates and introduce the
many economies expected to result from
joint or common agreement at competitive
points. No interchange of Directors has
been suggested or contemplated.
VALIDITY oy RAILROAD TICKETS.
St. Paul, November 12th.—Judge Van
derburgh of the Supreme Court has handed
down a decision which settles the question
of the validity of a railroad ticket pur
chased of a ticket broker or a scalper. It
affirms the liability of the railroad com
pany to accept such ticket when oflered by
an innocent purchaser. The decision grows
out of a suit against the Northern Pacific
involving those points.
ATCHISON SHOWS A DECREASE.
New York. November 12tb.—Kiernan's
News Agency issues a Boston special slat
ing that the Atchison net earnings for Octo
ber will show a decrease.
JAY GOULD INTERVIEWED.
New Yokk, November 12th.—One of the
most important inslruments used for effect
ing a rally in stock values was a theory
that Jay Gould had acquired control of the
Union "Pacific Railway, based on rumors
printed in a morning paper. A Tribune re
porter saw Mr. Gould this afternoon, and
he denied the truth of the published story.
"Have you or your associates made pur
chases which give you control of the Union
Pacific," was asked.
"I have nothing to say about my private
business transactions," Gould replied. "All
lhat I ever said to anybody was that what
stocks I purchased I paid for."
"Will you exert an influence upon the
Union Pacific management, or in any way,
directly or indirectly, ellect a change at the
next election?"
Mr. Gould smiled and hesitated before
his reply. "I am acquainted with some of
the largest stockholders in the country,"
he said. "I might have some irliuence, if
I choose to exert it. There is a great dis
satisfaction over tbe conduct of many of
the railroads. There is an uprising which
ought to effect general reforms in the man
agements, for the roads luve enough busi
ness to give them large profits if they
can obtain proper rates. In the south
west we have made progress toward
securing an agreement which will estab
lish stable rates There has been no con
ference to day that I know of on this sub
ject. The procress reported as made to-day
is probably the result of previous confer
ences. The stockholders sre aroused and
indignant over the result of warring rates.
The best way to express the situation
might be to say that if the railroad elec
tions were to take place now the results
might be as surprising as were the recent
politicil elections "
William Rockefeller, whose name was
connected with the fictitious interview,
said : "So far as I am concerned, there is
nothing in the story. I have not seen
Gould, aud have no interest in the Union
Pacific."
Much was made in Wall street on what
was said to be an evasion of the direct issue
89 to the Union Pacific'scontrol when ques
tions were asked cf Gould. Tbe Union
Pacific has long been subject to speculative
rumors. The Vauderbilts have been said
to be seeking ils control, in spite of offi
cial denials t:iv?n by them.
The snppcsititious contest for control be
tween lhe Vanderbilt and Gould legions
has failed to savd the Union Pacific stock
from sharing liberally in ihe late slaughter
of values. It is common talk in Wall

street that there will be a change in the

is frequently expressed with the present
managers, and many stockholders accept
implicitly the allegations of the railroad's

contributed the principal demoralizing ele

BASEHALL CIRCLES.
meetings of the Players and National
Leagues.
Pitts.vrg, November 12th. — At the
session of the Players' League to-day
President M-\Alpine formally presented
tbe resignation of the New York Club. An
opinion of Judge Bacon, of New York, was
read, to the effect that at the time of the
agreement between the New York Players'
and League Clubs of the named city, it was
understood the two leagues were to consol
idate. As this has not taken place the
agreement would not stand. No action
was taken on the resignation. A commit
tee, consisting of Ward, Prince and John
son, was appointed to attend the league
meeting, in session in New York, for the
purpose of placing tne matter of consol
idation before them. The committee leaves
tonight for New York. The Players' Club
of tbis city was not represented at to-day's
meeting, and the matter of the Pittsburgs'
resignation was laid on the lable.
The meeting adjourned, subject to the
call of the President.
the national league in session.
New York, November 12th.—At the an
nua! meeting of the National Baseball
League convened to-day, delegates were
present from New York, Brooklyn; Pitts
burg, Cleveland, Chicago, Philadelphia,
Boston, Washington and Indianapolis.
From a talk with League magnates the im
pression is received that the Players'
League is virtually dissolved, although the
players have appointed committees with
the idea of continuing another season.
With tbe consolidation of the clubs of the
Players' League and the National League
in this city, Brooklyn and I'it:sburg cer
tainly, and Buffalo out of the Players' cir
cuit, it is unlikely financial men behind
the Players' League will attempt to go on
with the clubs only in Cleveland, Philadel
phia. Boston and Cincinnati.
President Young was re-elected. The
Buard then formally awarded the cham
pionship to Brooklyn.
Subsequently the Joint Committee on
Playing Pules met and altered Sections 1,
2 aDd 3 of Article NXYIII.. and Section 6,
Article XLVIII. Tne three former sections
give a club the privilege of having one or
tli of its surplus men on the players' bench
in uniform, and allows the substitution of
any or all of them at any time during the
game. The change in Rule 4» does not
call for the retirement of the player in run
ning from the home plate to first on a hit if
he goes outside of the 3 foot-limit line
while the ball is beiDg fielded to first base,
as heretofore. At 2:30 the regular League
meeting was called to order.
Only routine business was transacted.
The msgnates decided to have another
session to-morrow in order to give the
Players' League Committee, appointed yes
terday, time to get here. A prominent
League delegate said, however, that the
National magnates would not confer with
the Players if Ward was a member of the
committee. Nearly all of tbe magnates, in
interviews, express the opinion that tbe
Players' League is practically a thing of
the past.

A British Cruiser Sinks With Over Two
Hundred fouls on Hoard.
London, November 12th.—The British
torpedo cruiser Serpent ha 3 foundered off
the coast of Spain. The fate of the crew is
unknown. The Serpent was a twin screw
vessel of 1770 tons, and carrying twenty
guns.
The Serpent was lost twenty miles north
of Cape Finislerre. Out of a total of 2SO
souls on board only three were saved. The
Serpent went ou trie rocks durinc a storm
Monday night. Owing to the violence of
the storm it was impossible to send assist
ance from shore. Tremendous seas .wept
the decks of the doomed vessel, carrying
away group after group of unfortunate
men on board. The Serpent's complement
was 170 officers and men. Tl;e others
were going to relieve the men now on the
African station.
Later dispatches say that three survivors
are of tlie opinion thai none of the others
got ashore. Four bodies have come up on
the beach. Three of tbem are women.
LORD HAMILTON CRITICISED^
London, November 12th.—Lord George
Hamilton, First Lord ot the Admiralty, on
rising to speak at a Conservative banquet
tbis evening announced the loss of her
Majesty's ship Serpent. Tbe announce
ment caused a sensation, but no aciion was
taken to postpone the banquet. Lord
George HatuiltoL led off in the toasts
with an unusualiy j-jlly speech. The news
of this affair resched the London clubs and
excited much adverse criticism. It is con
sidered that Hamilton's conduct may
cause a scandal against himself and the
Tories.
COMMKST9 ON THE DISASTER.
The Duke of Edinbureh was attending
the Patti concert at Plymouth when news
if the disaster reached the town. He was
immediately informed, and at once left the
concert hall. After reading all the
dispatches that had been received con
cerning the disaster, he went directly
borne without returning to the concert hall.
He expressed the utmost sorrow.
The newspaper offices at Plymouth were
besieged by crowds of people anxious to
bear news ot tbe disaster. Among these
R-ere many wives and daughters of the lost
seamen.
The Serpent was built after the ideas of
\dmiral Cooperkey, who insisted upon her
tumense horse-power, which, according to
previous notions, was out of all proportion
:u her displacement. She could maintain
_ speed of seventeen knots an hour.
Lord Brassey, in the ZS~anal Annual, ad
versely criticised trie vessel. He said the
?conotuy of weight had been carried to ex
cess in her construction; that her plating
was too thin, and her armament overdone,
fn seaway her heavy top weight would be
Et detriment to her speed, and wonld un
duly 6train tbe hull. The vessel was 225
feet long, while she had a draught of only
fourteen and a half feet.
Tne relatives of the crew at Plymouth
and the dock-yard people are full of gossip
about the lost cruiser. It is claimed that
she was unseaworthy and broke down on
all her trial trips.
Tbe Serpent has a bad record. She broke
down more than once in the maneuvers
of 18S8. Several Admirals condemned ves
sels of her class.
Lloyd's agent at Corunna haa tele
graphed : "It appears that the Serpent was
running fcr shelter in one of the bays
north of Finisterre. If she foundered, no
body need be surprised but the Admiralty.
If she grcuuded on reefs, she could not
stand a minute's battery in a heavy sea."

PRUSSIAN DIET.
Emperor William Opens Proceedings
with an Address on State atlairs.
Berlin, November 12th —The Emperor
opened the Diet of Prussia to-day. Iv the
speech from the throne he said : "In view
of the friendly relations with all loreign
States, which 'have been further strength
ened this year, the country can look for
ward with confidence to the preservation of
peace."
The speech also announced that bills
would be introduced for reform in taxa
tion, the organization of Provincial Coun
cils and the establishment of elementary
schools.
The speech deals almost exclusively with
home afVaits, and emphasizes the necessity
for improving direct taxation. The income
tax bill wili be submitted to the Diet, in
tended to effect an equitable distribution of
taxation by comi e'.liug all persons to make
declaration of their itcome. It is calcu
lated that by on extension of ihe legacy
duty, combined wiih a repeal of the duty
on small bequests, the fnnded property
may be brought more within the reach of
taxation.
The condition of the finances, the speech
declares, does not demand any immediate
augmentation of tbe revenue, while on the
other hard it will not permit auy reduc
tion in the receipts. Tne increased revenue
from direct taxation will be devoted to
lightening tbe burdens upon the Communes,
the land ai;d building taxes being handed
over to the Communal authorities. Ele
mentary education will be made wholly
free.
The speech says that the development of
regulations affecting the workingmen de
mands attention, and an increase in the
number of Supervisors, and a reorganiza
tion of the sys'.em of trade inspection is
necessary.
The speech was frequently interrupted by
applause. The Emperor's pacific declara
tions regarding Prussia's foreign relations
were especially approved.

Berlin, November 12th. — Professor
Koch's report on his consumption cure will

Tbe particulars were published to day of
a case of lupus of the face, treated by
Dr. Libberiz in Frankfort by Koch's meth
od. The case is progressing satisfactorily.
The first effect of the treatment was to
cause the lupus ulcers to swell and dis
charge a serous liquid, after which scabs
formed, as in eruption fevers. The doctor
will renew the injection when the scabs
fall.
Minister Yon Gassier has given 200,000
msrks for the erection of a special hospitul
for the treatment of consumption by Koch's
method.

Dr. Koch's, treatment for consumption,
says the patients are able to follow their
usual occupations while undergoing treat
ment, only it is necessary tD take the tem
perature three times daily, owing to fever
caused by the irjection of the lymph.
