[Special Telegram to the Globe. 1
Chicago, Aug. — The long-looked-for up
.urn in the grain markets came to-day, though
whether the boom has come to stay or not is
something that only futnra developments can
determine. In the absence of other material in
fluences in favor of higher prices the improved
feeling must be largely attributed to purchases
of wheat made on its merits by those who are
Imbued with the idea that it has got quite as low
as it ought to under existing ciicumstances.
Conservative operators, however, are of the
opinion that lower prices will come
by citing the enormous country sup
ply which is being daily headed towards
this city, and state that in the face of heavy re
ceipts it will be impossible to maintain any sub
stantial advance, Be that as it may, there was a
sharp advance all around to-day and the bulls are
consequently in very high feathers, predicting
a still further rise in values. Wheat opened at
T'J'aC for September and closed at 81 He, a gain
of 2?ic over the last quotations of yesterday.
Corn went up lj£c, closing at 51 %c for Septem
ber, and oats registered a gain of / c closing at
25 He for the same month. Pork advanced Si,
August being held at £2(3 and lard closed 7'/ic
higher at $7.5- for September, while ribs made
the same advance, the last figures being 59.72.
Wheat opened firm at lie over yesterday's
closing figures and was early bulled on its price
more than any other reason, an irregular advance
of Ifa r ". 1 V taking place on the morning session,
though it was not entirely maintained up to the
1 o'clock close. Receipts were not quite as
heavy as yesterday nor as they were expected to
be, but what strength was imparted was about
counterbalanced by heavy cables and moderate
shipments. Except in October, opening prices
were the lowest of the session. ; It is said that
Lester, Cndahy, Hutchinson and Schwartz &
Dupce covered in liberal lines of shorts and they
received the credit of supporting the market,
but an a general thing the crowd were afraid to
go in very heavy an wheat this morning,
It being an open question which way
it would go. No outside support worth mention-
Ins,' was received and at the close of the morning
tewlon the feeling was firm at an advance of ?^c
over the opening. On the afternoon board, how
ever, things brightened up considerably. A
stronger feeling prevailed and September went
up with a jump to 81>gC. This strength was re
duced by a general covering by the shorts, who
were frightened by the very strong closing in
New York. The strength there was amply ex
plained in the afternoon by a private dispatch re
ceived by J. W. Rumsey & Co., which stated
that there was a shortage of 35,000,000 bushels
in the export supply, and that exporters were
very eager to buy. This demand will prove quite
an important factor in prices here if it be any
where near as great as predicted.
Corn opened strong, but only fractionally
higher this morning, and as in wheat the lowest
prices were those at the opening. It followed
the fluctuations of the later cereal pietty closely.
A great deal of short corn was covered during
the morning, Sid. Kent, the Adams brokers, Pool
and Sherman being the heaviest buyers. The
short* alto bobbed up with a strong demand later
and a sharp advance was scored, September going
up from 4'.t' c at the opening to 50>jcatl o'clock.
In tbe afternoon com shared the strength of
wheat and closed at &?%c for September, and
51 lie for October.
Oats were quiet and firmer, closing about He
higher than yesterday at 85! jc for September.
In the provision market there was a fair specu
lative business, but trading on shipping account
vii- light. The feeling was somewhat unsettled
aud prices were higher, attention being directed
chiefly to lard and ribs. The shorts were
anxious about their outstanding contracts and at
times the competition resulted in sharp advances
in prices, thus rendering trading on outside
account rather unsatisfactory. Foreign advices
quoted a stronger feeling and higher prices in
bacon, but other articles were unchanged and
eastern markets were steadier.
Trading in pork was as limited as usual, but
Armour put the price of August up to $26 as a
son of a hint to the shorts that they had better
walk up like little men and settle unless they
wished to be forced to do it at still more exhorbi
tarn figures.
In lard the feeling was steadier, with very
firm offering!", but no great inquiry about the de
mand. Prices ruled .Vn.T'ic higher and closed
steady at $7.52 for September, and $7.62 54 for
October.
Trading was quite active in ribs, but the mar
ket was unruled and prices fluctuated within
quite a wide range. Tbe opening was fully 13c
higher, and a further appreciation of 10c quickly
followed, but later the offerings were more lib
eral and prices as rapidly receded 40®50c per
100 pound.*, rallying 20©25 c and railing some
»hat irregularly to the close, which was at $9.72
for September, and 19.50 for October.
••The rib market." said a broker, "will be
handled exactly as the pork has been. It shows
the same master hand. Messr*. Cndahy & Stoe
vers undoubtedly got their Inspiration from Ar
mour. The rib* are well held. There Is a good
demand for them at the price at which sbey are
being jobbed. The short interest is immense
and tho stock in existence which can be deliv
•red in September is just as exact as the stock
of pork. August pork Is at «25, because there
la no pork on hand and because there is a big un
settled shortage. The September option i* ap
proaching the same figure for the same reason.
Now, I should not be surprised to see August
and September ribs sell at $10.50, because there
was up to a fortnight ago the most reckless sort
of seßiugof them, aud the day of reckoning is
not far off."
There was a very quiet feelins In the cotton
market at the outset. There was little or no ex
port demand, and there did not appear to be any
very urgent eastern orders hero, but the lad
that the receipt* fell considerably short of gen, |
eral expectations prevented any important weak
euiag. Along the middle of the forenoon a fair
general demand had sprung up. and by mid- i
lay the larger part of the stuff been j
weighed. While no class of cattle sold mater- j
ially lower than Tuesday, the average was eas- j
ier. Fair to good butchers" cows were scarce, I
ond were wanted at $3.50©4 .25. Stockerswere J
no more plentiful than earlier in the week, j
and being in fairly active demand sold as high ■
an before. They were quoted at &$.5<X&4.50. I
The receipts of range cattle amounted to about I
100 loads. They were wanted by caaners and
dressed beef shippers at about steady prices.
The situation in the hog market was less sat
isfactory to salesmen than the day before.
Packer* did not take hold as freely aud trade
drapged all th« - morning. Early sales made
quite a* good figures as paid Tuesday, bat as the
forenoon advanced a weaker feeling was devel
oped and before 11 o'clock prices ware off at
least sc, The supply was light, bat there was a
prospect that a good many lots would have to be j
held over. Sales were at $0.50^6.53 for inferior
to choice light and at £3.5006.30 for inferior
mixed to extra heavy. Waagh Bros, got the ■
latter price for some fine ones, sold without
shrink. There was some trading in skip* and
call* at 53.50&5.30. Packers showed great par
tUUtr to such com mi £rsu as would allow j
€
them to shrink the hogs after paying 10@15c
per 100 pounds more than the stock was worth,
and docking very lightly or not at all.
There was a somewhat freer movement in the
sheep market and as a result a steadier feeling
prevailed. Both shippers aud the local trade
seemed inclined to take hold and there was a
prospect that there would be a good clearance
at full Wednesday's prices.
J. W. Ramsey & Co. say: "It looks now as
if some good parties are willing to invest in
wheat at current figures and from Kansas we
learn farmers will not sell at present values and
are stacking their grain. This will naturally
check receipts and have a tendency to advance
prices. We therefore would buy and keep on
the long side.
The Chandler Brown Co. say: "The bears in
wheat have been using the declining markets in
England as an argument for lower prices here.
The fact is that prices are always on the decline
there when weak markets can be quoted from
this side. We venture to predict that a sharp
advance in prices here would be responded to
very quickly by London and Liverpool markets.
We have frequently had foreign markets quoted
dull and heavy, or rather easier, etc., for days at
a time, when the actual figures show but little or
no change,"
Milmine, Bodman & Co. say: "It is generally
understood that in wheat there is a good line of
shorts out and that they will not stand on them
a long time, but meanwhile we 6hall need some
thing more substantial than shorts covering to
maintain the advance any length of time. The
low price of onr off grades is reported as having
depressing effect on shippers and we do not
wonder at it. We think if they could hold their
No. 3 wheat back for a week or two they would
get much nearer the prices of No. 2 for it."
McCormick Kennett & Day say: "The bears
say prices will go lower than ever when the
spring wheat harvest is over, as farmers will be
obliged to market a good deal to meet urgent
needs but even admitting a decline of a or 3 cts,
which is possible, we still think the long side
softest and believe it will pay a big dividend in
the end. We believe provisions will sell higher,
but tailers will be shaken out if possible beforfe
the final squeeze."

Milwaukee Aug. 13. — At the morning board
wheat opened ?*c lower in sympathy with a
weaker feeling abroad, and a decline of 3 pence
per cental at Liverpool, and 6 pence per quarter
at London. The weather in England was re
ported by private cable as less oppressive. Im
ports into England were liberal and Paris ruled
easier. A stronger feeling and a sudden reaction
followed, and when the visible supply was posted
it was so mnch lesd than anticipated that consid
erable strength was imparted to the market. The
weather in the northwest continues fine. Xo. 2
spring scllur September opened at 78?4, and ad
vanced to 79(4 ; October ranged at Wic above
September, opening at 79?ic, rising to 80Xc and
falling back to 80?ic.
The statement made on 'change yesterday by
S. Tallmadge that import wheat has been lower
than at the present time is successfully enter
tained. Takiug freight into consideration wheat
could never be laid down in Europe to low as to
day. A bushel of wheat can now be transported
from Milwaukee to Liverpool for 13'/ic and with
ruling prices, the cereal for import has never be
fore touched the present figures. The market
ruled tolerably firm at the afternoon board and
prices stiffened up a little on news of heavy raing
in Missouri and decreased deliveries at all wheat
points. September wheat closed at 7'J T »c and

Xkw Yokk, Aug. 13. — The bulls were on hand
to advance prices and the market improved as
coon as the exchange opened. The Grangers
nnd Union Pacific were the features and the last
named seems to be raised without any difficulty.
It is still largely oversold. Westorn Union was
not behind its neighbor* and sold above 66 dur
ing first hour. The market showed considerable
manipulation and when this support was with
drawn it wavered. Lake Shore dropped from
Blif to MX in a few moments. The West Shore
bonds acted as though there might be some
truth in reports that there was a contest for the
possession of the property and were
in demand at 45. There was consid
erable activity in Pullman. Stocks were
exceedingly dull at times and inclined to
drag. About the commencement of the last hour
there were indications of fresh orders in St, Paul
and Lake Shore and the tone improved. The
Delaware & Lackawanna clique worked the stock
up to about 114 with but little effort. The
market displayed considerable vim at the finish.
There were some purchases of Lake Shore nnder
the rule for account of delinquents, who were
tardy in deliveries. Stocks closed as a general
thing with quite an improvement for the day and
there was rathor a buoyant feeling all around.
The final quotations of Illinois Central are ex
divldend4 per cent. It looks a little this even
ins a* though the bears mar have their hands
full of business to- mono w, as the opposition
seems very determined.

frreat excitement to-night. The streets are
crowded with people and fears of violence
pervades all good citizens This afternoon
at a trial of two breweries of the city before a
justice of the peace in a country township,
a mob of '200 attacked the prosecuting
lawyer, named W. H. Bailey, stripped his
dnthinc off and tarred him. His life was
narrowly saved by the deputy sheriff. The
mob, many of thorn crazed
by drink, tried to catch tbe principal witness,
named Swafford, and would have haneed
him had they found him. A constable was
severely cut with knives. Tbe roughs came
to town this evening and for an bour had
possession of the streets, the sheriffs force
and city police being powerless. After sup
per they found Swafford, and knocked him
and bis brother down on the street, and
| would have killed them had they not been
secreted in a store. A meeting of citizens
has been held and the outrages vigorously
i condemned, and special police ap
pointed for tbe night. Tbe best people of
all parties are urging obedience to the law.
j The ringleaders in this trouble are known,

Great Enthusiasm Manifested and the
Speakers Frequently Interrupted
with Applause.
The Mother of Parnell and Several Noted
Personages were Noticed in the
Assemblage.
Boston, Aug. 13. — night the delegates of
the convention of the Irish national league held
a secret I meeting until after midnight. The
principal business was defining a policy which
shall govern the proceedings of '. the convention
to-day. The delegates are nearly unanimous in
favor of prohibiting the discussion in any form
of American politics. '■. It was decided to recom
mend Judge Mooney, of Buffalo, as temporary
chairman. I
The lowa state league sent $1,000 to Sullivan
for the parliamentary fuud.
; Seven hundred delegates are In town.
Among the distinguished members present are
Rev. P. Kroron, of Buffalo; James Mooney, Esq.
president of the Land League ; John J. Hines,
national secretary; . John Devere, : Judge John
Rooney, P. A. Collins, DrWm. B. Cole and Rev.
Mcßrennen, of Baltimore Rev. M. V. Gannor, of
Iowa; Rev. Dr. Chas. Riley, of Detroit, national
treasurer of the league ; Mrs. Parnell, mother of
Chas. Stewart Parnell, and Mrs. Alex. Sullivan,
who is known as "number one;" Thomas Sexton
and son, E. Redmond, the last named will arrive
this afternoon. .-,-■■
At 12 -.30 tha Hon. Alex. Sullivan entered the
hall leaning upon the arm of John Boyle O'Reilly.
He was received with enthusiasm. Mr. Sullivan
called the convention to order and spoke as fol
lows: .*_; " - ■
Gentlemen of the Convention — . the name
and by the authority of the Irish National League j
of America, we meet to fulfill the requirements
of its constitution ; to convey to our kindred the
message of our steadfast devotion ; and to receive
the ambassadors whom they have commisioned
to acquaint us with the progress of their straggle
for self-government. The memorable Philadel
phia convention organized the Irish National
League of America. It is the auxiliary of the
Irish National League of Ireland, the heir to all
the hopes. and the guardian of more than the aims
of that great social revolt ' which lifted the Irish
farmer from the earth to his feet, and cast the
English system of landlordism in Ireland on its
face on the earth. The Land League was born
in an hour of woe, when the specter of famine
appeared, summoned, not by the breath of God
withering the ■ harvests,' but by the
(English government. With armies and
fleets, with prisons and scaffolds and felon ships,
with coercion acts and constabulary, it enabled
the landlord to withhold, until purchased by for
eign charity, the food the people had produced by
their own labor out of their own soil. Humane,
nay, humble as was the first object of the Land
league, it was suppressed by force because the
English government feared that from the brow
of its humanity would spring the spirit of liberty.
The Irish National league, whose distinct and
avowed purpose is the establishment of the sov
ereignty of the Irish people in Ireland, is the em
bodiment of that spirit of liberty. It cannot be
suppressed, for its spirit is immortal. ■ It is be-'
yond the scope of coercion acts, for its life is as
endless as the life of a race. The . shamrock, on
its banner, tear-bedewed in its native bed, is the
symbol of the glorious union of that race in three
homes, separated by the seas that divide conti
nents, united by the determination of a race to
achieve the independence of a nation.
As the land league accomplished the relief of
a class,' the national league represents the aspir
ations and the resolve of an entire people. * •.- *
The national league aims not merely at a reduc
tion of rents; not merely at a change from idle'
proprietors to working proprietors, but at the
creation of complete national life and the devel
opment of - all the diversified industries which
render a people self-sustaining and prosperous.
* * * The work of the league in the United
States has. been directed first to sending aid to
the treasury in Ireland, whose moderate require
ments, in the absence of any emergency, have
been fairly met, and jto the enlightenment and
solidification of American opinion. While force
is still able to prolong despotism, justice is not
dependent on arms alone. Ireland, unable to
cope with the empire that denies her a constitu
tion and parliament, appeals from the bayonet
of her invader to the conscience and the mind of
mankind, and asks whether her demands are not
just, and whether her patience, her morality and
her perseverance have not been sublime. The
American mind it* essentially practical, and du
ring the past year we have endeavored to make
it acquainted with the practical aspects of Eng
lish misrule in Ireland. We have asked our
American countrymen to contemplate the im
poverishing taxation, the crushed manufactures,
the restricted education, the diminished agricul
ture, the compulsory emigration of the people
of Ireland. We have asked the American con
science to scrutinize the corrupt and infamous
judicial system . grimly maintained there
for the torture and slaughter of the
people. We have asked American freemen to
contemplate the suppression of free speech,
the intimidation of the press, and the extinction
of personal liberty under an administration nomi
nally constitutional, actually a barbarous despot
ism. The results of our labor are apparent in the
sympathetic unanimity with which the American
press sustain the struggle of our countrymen at
home, and in the universal expression of the
public opinion of the republic. * . * •
It is now apparent to thoughtful men on both
sides of the sea that the interests of the Ameri
can republic are identical with the interests of
Ireland. Every year that witnesses tbe denial of
self-government for Ireland is a year of taxation
upon a considerable portion of the American peo
ple for the support of the English crown in Ire
land. The drain of ' money from the toilers of
the United States to aid' their kindred
in Ireland will continue until the govern-'
ment which they detest, and which
keeps them poor and dependent, is expelled. In
whatever measure we eniist the sympathy and
the influence of the American republic in behalf
of the people of Ireland, we render a service to
the republic. It has been the practice of the
English government for more than a generation
to drive vast numbers of the Irish people off
small agricultural holdings into foul and vicious
dens called psor houses.' Being thus reduced to
poverty, their children robbed of an opportunity
to acquire bread-getting skill, they have been
forced into the pits of ocean vessels, and cast
penniless upon the crowded cities of our sea
board. Here they have become unwilling but
helpless charges upon our communities, or, by
their blameless lack of skill, and their cred
itable energy in seeking . employ
ment, I they - have forced wages down
along the lines where wages are lowest. ! In di
recting the attention of our government to this
violation of international rights, we discharge the
duty to the American tax-payer and wage
worker, while we fasten the attention of the
world apon a long-lived English | lie — namely,
that Ireland is over populated, for we showed
that only 3,000,000 acres out of 20,000,000 of her
soil are under tillage, and that, if permitted to
govern her«elf, Ireland is capable of supporting
five times her population . '."
Of the national convention of each of the great
political parties, we requested and received a
pledge that English landlordism, which is nearly
expelled from Ireland, shall not be permitted to
transfer its evil .seeds to American
soil. In adopting this : peaceful method
of prevention rather than ■ waiting
until the cure of force should be
required, we rejected the policy of Mr. Gladstone,
who could not disestablish an alien church until,
according to his own avowal, explosives had re
sounded in England, and we have relied on ' a?a
tation to effect public benefit?, thus following the
principles of Charles Steward ParnelJ. * •. . •
• Fellow countrymen, the only credentials recog
nized on this floor are the credentials of the Iri«n
National leaeue. On yonder threshold we I
dropped our character as members of American i
parties. - The only demand the Irish National
league makes in American politics la the de
mand for the elevation of American citizenship
at home and abroad. It makes that demand of
all parties, and it makes it so determinedly that
every party must respect it. It makes that de
mand not in the ' name :' of the s distant island
whence we sprang; it makes it in the [ name of
the American republic, of which we are a - part.
It makes it not for the man of Irish blood alone ;
but for every - American, native . and . adopted,
whether Celt or German. Scandinavian or Rus
sian. "•■■••-• ■ ". . '
We meet in the historic city of the republic,
hallowed by the earliest struggles of the Ameri

! ciL ' We meet in the hall over which the genius j

The enthusiasm during the * delivery of \ the
chairman's address was '• unbounded. The ap
plause began almost in the first paragraph of the
address, and the speaker was ; compelled several
times to await a subsidence of the great enthusi
asm before he could continue. When the speaker
referred to the work of the national league in
Ireland, the . convention rose - ' en mass and
cheered, which was repeated when the chairman
accused the English government of \ bringing
shame upon Ireland. When-, the speaker said:
"The shamrock on the banner of : the Irish -Na
tional league, tear bedewed in its native bed, is
the symbol of the glorious union of that race, in
three homes, separated by the seas that ! divided
the continents," united by the determination of a.
race to achieve the independence ' of a nation,"
there was applause tremendous and a Inn,' time
before quiet was restored. ■ ; At ■ other points in
the address these scenes were repeated. '■-- ~ *} '-i
The secretary read the call by which ". the ; sec
ond national convention of the league was assem
bled, after which Chairman; Sullivan announced
that by a unanimous vote of the national conven
tion the following gentlemen were recommended
as permanent officers, and they were elected unan
imously: : Temporary ', chairman, ex-President
National League _ James ! Ho.on.ey, ;of Buffalo ;
secretaries, Charles McGan. of Pennsylvania;
M. J. Griffin, of Iowa; Thomas. J. Flattey.jof.

; Mr. Mooney was greeted with loud cheers as
be took his place, and then he addressed the
convention as follows:
Ladies and gentlemen of the convention: I
■am sure after bearing the eloquent and able ad
dress of the president of the 'national league,
you do not expect me to make any extended re-,
marks. My duty simply will be to preside , over
your temporary deliberations, but I cannot forego
the pleasure of congratulating you upon ihe large
and intelligent number who are here to-day from
all parts of this great 5 Union to continue . the
great work so auspiciously begun. .* It is another
evidence that the Irish people of this great Re
public will never cease its efforts until their na
tive land occupies a position as one .. of the
i nations of - the ' earth. , -' ", I am : sure
the delegates that are expected from Ireland
to " . be here shortly :- - will -:be -\ ! greatly
gratified at seeing this intelligent gathering, j It
would satisfy them beyond any doubt that their,
brethren of this . country will never cease :to
labor, never cease to work until the great achieve
ment is accomplished of which j Charles Stewart
Parnell (applause) is leader. 'It is not necessary
for me to request, I know your patriotism too
well to doubt it, that your deliberations will .be
marked with civility, with courtesy to j one an
other, and continue so until the work of this
convention is accomplished. (Applause. | ■/.'.,
The rules of the Philadelphia convention were
adopted. The committees, on credentials, reso
lutions, organization and auditing accounts of
the league were appointed and the Convention
took a recess .
SPEECH BY SEXTOS.
Upon reassembling at 8 p.m. it was announced
that 400 delegates were present. At this point
the company broke into turn nitons cheers as
Messrs. Parnell and Redmond entered, escorted
by Congressman P. A. Collins and other gentle
men.
When Mr. Sexton was first introduced the audi
ence arose and cheered again. " When quiet was
restored he said: ' _: .'
Ladies and Gentlemen— chairman has in
troduced me to you as Mr. Sexton from Ireland.
I Laughter and applause.] But as I have listened
to the generous cheer with which you received
the introduction I found it ; . hard
to believe I was not Mr. Sexton of
Ireland. - [Laughter ■ and applause.] Because
nowhere upon the soil of Ireland to-day could
tht appearance of any public man, not in Conne
mara or the plains of Tipperary, be greeted with
a cheer more evidently springing from the Irish
heart, more obviously ottered by the Irish tongue,
more clearly proving that .. igdestructable adhe
sion to one another of- 'the scattered fraction of
the Irish race, which neither time of 'circum
stances nor calamity nor distance have been able
to break down. [Applause.] It •is this
solidity of the Irich race, it is this ad
herence of . men and women ' of
our kith and kin to the hopes, to the rights of
their race that ia making us in Ireland feel it is
no longer with hope, but with absolute confidence
that we regard the future.' | Applause.] Because
the oppressor is made to feel, as the world feels
to-day, that he has no longer to deal • merely in
a small isolated island with eight million or five
million of weak and disarmed people, but he has
to grapple with the intellect of a force of public
opinion of five and twenty million of - the Irish
race scattered by ;'. his own evil
policy '.all the world over; and
effecting by their v intellegence the
conduct of greatest nations of the earth.' [Ap
plause. | Ladie* and gentlemen, in the name of '

country, which I long wished to visit, both as a
lover of natural liberty and also as an Irishmen,
I count myself peculiarly fortunate, in that I am
enabled to condense into experience a few hours
in this city of Boston what otherwise I could not
hope to gain ,■ by over a . year of travel.
For here in' this historic hall, and
in this illustrious city, rich in traditions,
patriotic self-sacrifice and devotion?, It is my
peculiar good fortune to meet in this inspiring
arena an assemblage of ! men representing every
state and territory of this Union. An assem

race on the American continent. Men qualified
by public service, by character, by capacity to
interpret the thoughts and utter the . sentiments
of the Irish race upon this great continent,

parliamentary party, but of the Irish National

strength of the Irish people for the struggle up
on the soil of Ireland [applause] ; I am here as a
representative of united Ireland [great applause

there is -no difference -in the principles
no difference in the intention between men whe '
confront the oppressors of our - country :in the
legislative arena and the men who conduct the I
public cause at j home. And .while I declare
there is .at tola moment a perfect nnity of ac

the English bouse of commons, I believe I may
add that no man who at this moment j commands
the confidence and lore of the
Irish , people . . will be found - In
the entire future, which is near approaching,
which will decide not only the social but political
rights of our race, to interpose any. persona!

THE NORTHWESTERN OUT.
The Road Don't Want Its Freight
Diverted, and Withdraws from
the Tripartite,
I Special Telegram to the Globe.]
Chicago, Aug. 13. — To-day's developments in
the tripartite controversy were of a somewhat
sensational character, and show more conclu
sively than ever that the association is destined,
ere long, to be reduced to the original three
members. At 11 o'clock the meeting called to
discuss the internal strife was hegun
at Commissioner Vininss' office. General Man
ager Talmadge, of the Wabash, was
unable to be present, and that road was repre
sented by C. L. Wellington. The others present
were Messrs. Hughitt, Cable and Miller. The
conference struck an insurmountable obstacle at
the outset. Before consenting to a discussion of
the situation Mr. Hughitt said he should urge an
immediate vote upon a resolution he had to offer.
It waa, in snbstance that the Western Trunk
Line association should comply with the recent
request made by the Northwestern to cease di
verting its freight. The purport of this request,
as nearly as can be learned, is that the North
western is ahead of its allotted proportion, and
for some unannounced reason refuses to allow
its freight diverted for the purpose of evening
up the pool balances.
The resolution was put upon its passage, and
all but the Northwestern and Wabash voted
against it. The former voted for it and the lat
ter refused to vote. This put a speedy end
to negotiations and the meeting adjourned, sub
ject to call.
Having failed to get what it wanted at the
hands of the association, the Northwestean pro
ceeded to take the law into its own hands and
to act independently of the tripartite pool.
About 3 o'clock in the afternoon General Freight
Agent Mellen, by order of the general manager,
issued the following letter to the eastern trunk
lines :
Dear Sir : — Will you please consider this let
ter, in the nature of a request from the Chicago
& Northwestern railway company that yon de
liver to it all freight consigned or marked to its
care, including its proportion of the California
fast freight line freight and a reasonable and
equitable division between it and other
lines of all uncon signed freight going
to Council Bluffs, Omaha, and points in the ter
ritory beyond. Furthermore we would request
that any orders or requests which may have
been received by you for the divisions from
the Chicago & Northwestern of any
freight, either with or without
the consent of this company, or by the directors
on the request of other roads or associations, be
disregarded, and any guarantees which may
have been heretofore given by this company for
the protection of connecting lines against claims
j caused by the diversion of freight from this
company to other lines are hereby cancelled.
By this act the Northwestern has thrown
down the gauntlet and it remains to be seen what
the tripartite pool is going to do about it. By
the above pronunciamento the Northwestern
has announced its intention to dis
regard the authority of" the Western
Trunk Line Association, and it will be practi
cally impossible to heal tbe breach which has
been made in the tripartite pool as a seven
party alliance.

THE PROUD MAN.
A CHARACTER SKETCH!
What has a proud man to do with the clothing
business? f Generally very little, as . proud I men,
as a rule, are too conceited to patronize a clothing
store, but i pay exorbitant prices -for j "made-to
order goods," when .if they were less blind t(
their own interest they would do as the largest
portion of the best-dressed men in St. i Paul are
doing, viz., patronize '-THE BOSTON."
Our "Red Figure Sale" is, as usual, a success,
our many bargains attracting hosts of customers. -
It looks now as though we should not have to
pack away a summer suit. : This is just what we
want, and is the sole reason for our "Red Figure
Sale.'" to clear out our summer stock, if low
prices will do it.
