Saturday, November 10, tlio Ragister
said: "In the First district Atkinson lias
a? apparent small majority over PendleI
ton, hut his election is not conceded. It
will take the official count to decide."
Wednesday, November 14, the Register
delivered itself in this wise: "The recount
puts John 0. Pendleton five votes
ahead of Atkinson, and the Republicans
arc endeavoring to trump up charges of
fraud it? order to create ground for a contest
before Congress, where they depejid
<>u the Republican majority to throw
Mr. Pendleton cut."
Friday, November 111, fl woek after it
elected Pendleton l?y seven, the Register
saiil: "The First, district wavers in the
balance. Mr. Atkinson has now an apparent
plurality of four votes, but this,
according to the changes already made
by the recbunt, may be wipod out clean
find Mr. Pendleton elected by a safe ma
jority."
How did the lbgitter and its friends
know whnt u recount would do for Pendleton?
If it was to be lioncst, why
might not Atkinson ua well as Pendleton
profit hy it?
The following interesting exhibit is
on the Regitler*? own table of November

losses are the result of a comparison between
the otlleial returns to date and
the IbyitJtr'i tablo. If by the Register*?
showing of November!), Pendleton was
elected by 7, it is an unanswerable proposition
that to-day Atkinson stands
elected by u majority of 10, after the
vigorous and vicious "recount" to
which ho has been subjected. In fact
he has U over Pendleton and will have

communication going on between Camden
and other Democrats to the effect
that Gotf was elected, but that Flem- ,

could read the message by standing in (
the room, as by manipulating tho key.
A meeting was called at Wheeling, at 1
which were McGraw, Fleming and 1
others, whero it was decided to demand '
a recount in Kanawha, Boone andLogau

The doubtful districts aro in States <
where they are best organized aud in a 1
position to affect tho result. It might ,
not be a difficult thing in West Virginia,
North Carolinia and Virginin, where tho <
result is in doubt, to give the certificate !
to the Democrat and let tho contest go
to the House. This would givo them a i
majority on the outset. .A member oc- I
cupying a contested seat hns all the rights ;
aud privileges of any other member, anil, ,
even if it is evident that he will after- i
ward bo unseated, he can vote in the organization
of tho Houso upon all measures
that may come up while he occupies
the seat, and even upon his otf n contest.
In tho Southern States the Democrats
might certify Democrats in all the doubtful
districts, and there is practically nothing
that could he done to prevent. They
havo not only the State organization, but
the Stato courts, before which the only
appeal could bo taken.
The Republicans might retaliate in
Michigan and California to the extent of
probably threo members and so get the
House if tho Democrats depend only on
West Virginia and North Carolina returns
for their majority. If there were
a wholesale disregard of honesty it is
hard to toll which would come out
ahead. Upon tliclr own claims tho
Democrats appear 10 nave it ijnyyriiy o?
ono or two. The situation is really a
serious ono and may, possibly, in tbo
end, result, if tho Democrats persist in
tbeir present tactics, in stealiug the
House, /airly and honestly won by the
Republicans, in an organization of two
bouses and au appeal to Fresidont'Harrison
by both of them for ruuognition as
tbo duly elected and constituted lower
branch of Congress, Thu Republicans
are not disposed to stand-any foolishness
and they will not. They will go to
tbo last extreme in defending their
rights and in tho deteruiination to firmly
hold what they have fairly and honestly
won in the face of great odds and
with chances all against them.

candidates who hud given up the

immense, despite tho unfavorable

John 11. Clark, Jr., the Clerk of th
Houho of Representatives, believes tha

been elected and that six districts are ii
doubt. This calculation is based upoi
the assumption that Wilson (Democrat

are the First, California; Tenth, Ken
tucky; Second, North Carolina, and th<
First, Third and Fourth of West Vir

doubtful, because they are claimed bj
both parties on majorities so smal
that the official count must b(
awaited to determine the result
In the ca3o of Representative
Bacon (Dem.,) of New York, who is reported
to have been defeated by eight)
majority, Gen. Clark expects that n
contest will ensue. Of one thing lie is
confident, and that is that the majority
in the next House will not be over live
either way. Relative to tho functions
of the Clerk iu the organization of the
new House and the power he is supposed
to be uble to exercise in seating or unseating
members, Gen. Clark says that
his duties are tixed by statute and are

otherwise. There cannot bo duplicate

General Clujrk said that from the official
records beforo him it appeared that
the Republicans had elected a majority
of one in the next House, and tliis was
because up to the present time but one
certificate had been presented to him,

of Oregon. The certificates are usually
nlougtimo coming in, us they are not
issued until sotno time niter the official
returns arc made public. In tho case of
Missouri this docs not take place until
January, and in many other States the
dato is equally remote from election
day. Tho reduction of tho claims of both
parties to very narrow majorities of
from three or live or six suggests interesting
possibilities, when it is remembered
that no less than six persons who
were elected to tho Forty-ninth Congress
died either before they had been sworn
iu or after they had taken their seats,
and that there isa strong possibility that
that there will bo some deaths among
325 men of mature years during the long
period-?thirteen months?intervening
between election day and the assemblage
of tho new Congress.

abandoned his olaitn that the Democrats
arc certain to have a majority, aud states
that it will be nceessary to await the
official returns, and that all that con now
be said is that the result is in doubt. One
of tho leading subordinate official* of
General Claris otlkc. who has all the
information as to Democratic hopes
which General Clarke himself has, says
that the officials at tfio IJoijbo have abandoned
the expectation which they hud a
few days ago that the Democrats would
organize the House, and tiiat they themselves
would retain their places. Representative
Wilson, of West Virginia,
whoso scut has so lone been in
doubt, aud whose election the Republicans
still deny, has arrived
here, and is frank enough to
say he lias no doubt that the Republicans
have secured control of the House
by a small majority. The confidence of
the Republican leaders is reuewed. and
they now claim that under no comuination
of circumstances will it be possible
for thg clerk of the Mouse to refuse to
put u majority of. Republicans upon the
roll of the House of the Fifty-first Congross.
Chairman Quay claims six majority.

Udger, in its financial article, says rela- o
tiveto tho war in freight rates: "So far o
we can ascertain unou inquiry at the !'
ofilce of the Pennsylvania Railroad, the }'
present trouble in rates arises largely j(
from tho fact that there is no method "
under which agreements as to rates can
bo maintained or enforced. Tho newer ri
and weak .-t lines feel that they cannot P
command traflic at equal rates with the "
older aud mot!* established lines, and A
while they would no doubt prefer an n
ainicaoie arrangement iiuuer wmcii mo r
tradio c#uld be divided, there is no way, ,u
since the passage of the Inter-State 0

can be legally made. The comnetitiQn, a(

eeediugly active competitors for both "

CiacAao, Nov. 10.?A local paper says: tl
Some of tho roads are undoubtedly mak- n
ing rates on westbound tra/Kc from New
York below those inaugurated by the
New York Central a (Jay or two ago. t
Tho latter tariff is on the basis ol 50
cents, first class, New York to Chicago. a
Yesterday some shippers were furnished a
with a memorandum, quoting the fol- hi
lowing rates, New York to Chicago, by i>
the commercial express fast freight line: ?

i Evidence Against the Land

' LADY MOUNT MORRES FAINTS
In the Court while Being: Ci'ots?Ex?
am inert, ami Her Testimony is
! Suspended?The Murder of
lier Husband Investigated.
London, Nov. 1G.?The proceedings of
the Parnell Coin mission to-day were
mode interesting by the appearance on
the witness stand of Lady Mount Morrep,
whose husband, Lord Mount Morres, was
inurdored at Clonbar, county Gal way, in
1880. Lady Mount Morres testilied that
a friendly feeling had existed between her
husbaud and his tenants on tho estates at
Clonbar, until tho Land League beguu
to hold meetings there. In July, 1880,
her husband obtained a writ of ejectment
against a tenant. In the following
urtiilo wtttwiau tviifl in Knnt*
land, her husband was nhot. She went
to Ireland to attend tlio funeral. She
heard that men refused to assist in putting
the cuflin in the hearse. Witness
left Kber llill in October. While on her
way to the steamer the people laughed
at aad hooted her, mid a stone was
thrown at her eight year old son. Iler
husband received threatening notices
only after League meetings had been
held.
Sir Charles llus-sell, counsel for the <
Parnellites, was proceeding to cross-ex- <
amine Lady Mount Morres -upon the
exact (laieH 01 ino jamikuo meetings ai- j
luded to, when tho witness fainted, and
would have fallen to the floor had not a
court officer caught her. Sir CharleH
thereupon intimated that ho would not (
proceed any further in tho eross-exnuiiution.
(
Constable Drusmnoml.'of Clonbar, was ]
then culled. 11 o testified that during the
inquiry into tho murder of Lord Mount
Morres, he could not get any assistance
from the people. After tho formation of ,
the Land League he had noticed n (lc- ,
cided chaujie in tho manner of tho peo- t
pie towards the landlords. On cross-ex- ^
animation he said he attributed the hostility
of the people towards Lord Mount
Morres partly to.his lordship's conduct
in hitt capacity as. magistrate, and partly j
to his attitude 011 the laud question. t
Mr. Davitt then cross-examined the j
witness ami elicited the statement that t
Lord Mount Morres hud led the people
to believe that he held secret communications
with the Dublin Castlo authorities.
i
Sergeant O'.Connor testified that lio (
saw a number of men with hands joined, j
dancing around tho marks of blood on
the spot where Lord Mount Morres was
murdered.
Sir Henry James, of the Timet counsel, 1
then announced that it was now pro- 1
posed to give evidence in relation to
outrages committed in County Kerry.
Sir Charles Russell protested. He said
it would very difficult to follow the case 1
if the prosecutors moved from ono cou- 1
ty to auother without touching evidence
connecting outrages with the persons
accused. Presiding Justice Haunen
agreed with Sir Charles Russell that the 1
Commission could follow the evidence
by the method in which it.was proposed
to give it only with enormous dilliculty, (
but when assured by counsel that there ,
was no other means to shorten the case
than the ono proposed, the court was 1
bound to assent. [ I
Sir Charles Russell, thereupon, said, >
warmly: "All 1 cai^ do; then, is to pro- .
test against a course which ecrtaiuly will
not conduce to facilitate tho inquiry." 1
Giles Reay, auother Kerry farmer, tes- 1
tilled that disguised men came to his i
house, blindfolded his wife and cut otf .
one of his ears. On crbsa-exami nation j
witness denied that he laid called on tho j
treasurer of the local tcflguo tho next ,
day and asked him to get a check cashed ,
made by Bonnctt Stewart to the order of i
Arthur BlennerhassettJ Witness had j
attended a meeting at Tralee at which <

I^ondon*, Nov, 10.?Sir Arthur Hunter
Palmer, acting Governor of Queensland,
has telegraphed to Lord Knutsford, tho
Colonial Secretary, notifying him of the
opposition in the colony to tho appointment
of Mr. Henry Arthur Blako as Governor.
He says that Mr. Blake is not
known to have administered a responsible
government with discretion and success,
and that Qucensluud is entitled to
have u governor of proved ability and
discretion. Mr. Blake's experience in
colonial governorship is confined to a
year's governorship of New Foundland,
"while his previous experience would
only disqualify him for tho duties lie
would bo called on to perform. Tho objection
to Mr. Blako in Queensland, Mr.
Palmer says, was spontaneous, immediate
and "general, and was the more
strongly accentuated because the nomination
followed a crisis in which rigid
adherence to tue exercise of privilege
had to give way to responsible government.

St. Petersburg, Nov. 16.?-Tha Journal
de St, Petersburg, referring to assertions
ma<]p by thol'aris Jlatin, in relation to a

are limits to tho right of insinuation.
Russia certainly desires to see France
regain her legitimate position among the
nations, which is necessary to preserve
the equilibrium of Europe; hut she is
convinced that peace is for the interest
of both France and Russia. Such insinuations,
therefore, can only injure
the cause they claim to defend.

New Yoiik, Nov. 1(1.?It. G. Dun &
Jo.'a Weekly Review of trade says: Tho s
. olume of legitimate trade continues
argft, but in important bronchos tho
;ransaetions iu anticipation of an .im>rovement
in prices were so largo prior
o tho election that comparative dullness
jas followed. The war of rates between
runk lines is the chief cause of disturbinco
in speculative circles, but there iB
ilso some foreign realizing, and men are
jeginnicg to consider whether disputes
between this country and Great Britain
nay not disturb tho current of investnents.
The stock market has heretofore
been heavy, the average prices having
declined during tho past week about
12 per share.
Wheat speculation has been sat upon
heavily by the stoppage of exports from
tho Atlantic ports and the enormous
movement from tho Pucillc coast. An

without some advance in price,- wliich

Enlargement of production is scarcely to
bo expected. The hoot and shoo trado
continues decidedly active and promising.
Excesaivo production has weakened
the nnthracite coal market. The
interior demand for bituminous bss
fallen o/F. The coko output in Western
Pennsylvania exceeds all past records.
-While the demand for Iron aud steel
is largo the production appears at present
to have increased even more rapidly
anil the market seems rather weaker.
.Sales of No. I Southern at $17 50 are reported.
Bur is also weaker in tone,
quoted at SI 65. and it is stated that steel
rails have been sold at Slid In ono case at
mi&Durgtt, and tlio Obifcago quotations
$20 60 is hardly equivalent to that figure,
though some custom sales at $-8 uro
quoted.
Money if not easy at Nashville, Arm at
Kansas City and in active demand at
Memphis, but at nearly all points there
is an ample supply and tho treasury observes
that the demand for currency bus
fallen otT. Scarcely amy complaint is
made of collections.
The failures during tho week number
237, as compared with a total of 22G last
week, and 275 tho week previous. For
the corresponding week of last year tho
failures were 224.

whoso failure occurred about .three
months ago, is at hist ended. At tho
tiuio the assignees of tho iirm took possession
of their warehouse, they found
that Hall & Co. had leased the warehouse
to tho National Storage Company,
which had issued to the lessors' warehouse
receipts for about '100,000 pounds
of wool, or about 100,000 pouuds more
than Hull & Co. had on hand. Hall <fc
Co. had pledged these receipts with various
city hanks. As Hall ?fc Co. did not
own any of the wool, in their lots, tho
contest was mainly between tho con-,
signors of tho wool on 0.10 side, and tho
holders of tho receipts of tho storage
company and the storuge company itself
on tno other side. Jupge ilrendergast's
decision was tothe ofleet that the storage
company Js liable to the receipt holders
fox tno woo\ covored by its warehouse
receipts. Tho court found that tho
storago company never had legal possession
and was not entitled to hold tho
wool in storago. Consignors, who wero
