Thousand of Strangers Pouring Into
Washington Ten Thousand Inaugural
Hull Tlckcti Alrendy Sold Tlio Inaugu
ral Supper Will Conmtmo till tlio Coun
try's Catch of Terrapin.
Washington, March 4. The committee
in chargo of tho inaugural ball nud re
ception has contracted with the Pinker
ton Detectivo ngency to supply officers to
guard tho reception and ball, us well ns tho
city of Washington, during tho inuugu. a
tion. Under the now arrangement any crooked
man known anywhere in the United States
will bo placed under nrrost os soon as ho
steps oil tho train in this city.
At every inauguration sinco Washington
hns been the scene of excitement atteudirit
upon such an occasion. Tho thieves flocked
to Washington like flocks of geeso to tlu
south at tlio appearance of cold weather.
They have had full sway in the city and at
tho inaugurral ball, and notwithstanding the
efforts of the police, stealing has gone on
openly. This year the committee in chargo
of the ball opened up a correspondence with
tho Pinkerton agency, and tho flual arrange
ments have been made.
According to tho agreement, Mr. Roliert
A. Pinkerton, superintendent of the eastern
division of the agency, and his brother, Mr.
William A. Pinkerton, of Chicago, will have
full chargo of the police at tho hall, and
while tho crowd remains in the city. The
officers selected will be from tho Pinkerton
stall at New York, Chicago, Cincinnati, St.
Louis, Kansas City, Brooklyn, Boston, Pitts
burg, Philadelphia and St. Paul. With the30
men on hand it will be a difficult matter for
nny crook to appear openly on tho streets of
Washington.
Tickets to tho ball will bo sold exclusively
by Pinkerton men, aud a corps of tho same
detectives w ill tako them up at tho door, so
it will bo impossible for any iniproiwr person
to obtain admission to the ball without being
discovered. Tho ticket-sellers and handlers
will be selected from tho corps w ho every
summer handle tho tickets at tho Manhattan
Bay and Sheapshoad Bay race tracks, which
nro guurded by Pinkerton's men, and in ad
dition a numbjr of men who nre well an
Iquaiutcd with tjio smart people of the coun
try will bo stationed at tho door and inside
the hall, to point out pooplo who may not te
known to the doorkeepers.
I Asido from this nrrangomont tho Messrs.
Pinkerton have closed a contract with Chief
of Police William C. Mooro to guard tho
city and hotels ngninst tlio organized gangs
of thieves aud bunko men who flock here at
every inauguration. Under tho nrrange-
' ment, which could not bo bettered, there is
i little doubt that President Harrison's inau
guration w ill bo f reo from the evils that have
attended so many others.
Ten Thousand Ball Tickets Sold.
Wasiiincton', March 4. It is said that
10,000 tickets have been sold for tho iuuug.
, ural ball at 50 each. It is likely that 2,000
inoro will bo issued. Negroes will be ad
mitted, also whito pooplo of good or bad
character. Nobody is excluded who will
pay ?5.
The Ohio headquarters is tho Ebbitt houe,
and there Governor Foraker is located. Ho
and Axlino disappeared for an hour or so Fri-
day, and it is stated that tho governor wits
' out in an open lot near tho navy yard with
tho black stallion, testing his ability to
6tick on.

Terrapin Cornered.
Philadelphia, March 4. Tho terrapin
markot in Philadelphia, New York and Bal
timore has been cornered. Whon tho stew
ards of tho various city clubs went to mar
ket to procure the delicacies for Sunday
they were informed that there was not a ter
rapin iu tho city. Telegrams were sent to
New York and Baltimore. Tho answer iu
both cases were the sumo: '"Market was
cornered for inauguration ball about three
weeks ago."
Georgo C. Boldt, who will provide tho
great supper, instructed his agent in this
city sometime ago to purchase all the ter
rapin obtainable. Tho prices paid were high.
As a result 1,700 largo terrapin and :),400
small specimens were contracted for. Fri
day evening tlioy wero boiled and picked. Tho
amount made 2.V) gallons, which, at tho re
tall prico of $5 a quart, make $5,000 worth of
this luxury for Harrison's admirers. Friday
night a special train carried tho terrapin to
Washington.
Centennial of tho First One.

tho invitation to the centennial anniversary

fortuno Thursday in finding a lot of muni
cipal bonds upon Oakland and Amboy, IU.,
which had been purchased by her husband

Her llttlo girl, playing with an old trunk
formerly used by Dr. Chnpin in keeping his
papers, had accldently found tho bonds be
tween the sido of the trunk nud the lining.
The bonds aro valued at $12,000, and tho fam

DUN'S REVIEW.
Merchants Should bo Satisfied With the
Present Condition of Trade.
New York. March 4. R. G. Dun & Com
pany's weekly roviow of trado says: Traders
who have been waiting through a belated
season for tho expected winter trado finds
Hint it does not come, and spring has ar
rived. Henco there nre on hnnd largo stocks
of unsold winter goods, which account for
tho tardiness of collections in many quarters,
and for tho general senso of disappointment.
I Though tlio trado of February, like that of
January, has been rather larger on tlio
wholo than that of last year, it is not forgotten
thnt business was unusually interrupted last
, year by storms, strikes and other imp3.Il-
ments. But the outlook for tho spring and
tho feoling of confidence as to tho future nro
at least as favorable as a year ago, though in
soino departments tho stato of trado is at
present unsatisfactory.
At fully half tho Interior points which ro
port this week there is noted a fairly good
trade or some improvement. Pittsburg ob
serves an advance of twonty-flvo cents in
some kinds of pig iron, and a better inquiry
for manufactured in many forms. GreaUr
Btrength'is also observed at Cleveland, where
the trade of treasury is reckoning better
than usual. Philadelphia notes most cau
tious dealing in dry goods on account of
stock, heavy goods carried ovor. No chango
in wool, a firmer market for leather, and a
slow market with tardy collections for drugs
and chemicals. As to collections, Omaha
alone reports improvement, though at Cleve
land city collections aro good, but the coun
try is slow. At all other points tardiness Is
noticed.
Tho money markets aro everywhere amply
supplied for legitimate business, but the de
mand is moderate or light. While trade iu
dry goods hero is considered larger for Feb
ruary than that of last year, tho unusual
caution of buyers continues and woolen
cloths are without activity, while staple
cottons aro comparatively quiet
COMMERCIAL UNION.
Tho House Committee on Foreign Affair

Washington, March 4. In the house, on
motion of Mr. Anderson, of Iowa, tho joint

with Canada was passed. This joint resolu

brought into either country by other
nations, with no duty upon trado between
tho United States and Canada, he shall ap
point threo commissioners to meet those
who may be likowiso designated to represent
tho government of Canada, to prepare a
plan for tho nssimulntion of the import
duties and internul rovenuo taxes of tho two
countries, and an equitablo division of
receipts, in n commercial union; and said
commissioners shall report to tho president,
who shall lay the report boforo congress.
HE PLAYED GHOST
And In Consequence Got His Hide Filled
With ISuckshot.
Casey, Iowa, March 4. There is a little
pond known as Silver lake, four miles west

He Took the Matter Calmly.
London, Mnrch 4. There seems to bo no
doubt that tho "Ronald Ponsonby," who
committed suicide in a hotel in Madrid, was
Pigott In assuming on alias ho evidently
chose a name whose initials would corres
pond with those on his baggage. No papers
were found hjkju his person, but his dis
cription is identical with that of n man who
called at the Hotel Deux Mondos- in Paris,
and left suddenly.
Tho Standard's Madrid dispatch says that
when Pigott was arrested ho took tho matter
calmly, and asked permission to retire to an
ante-room to obtain his cloak. A moment
later tho sound of tho pistol shot was heard,
and on entering the room tho officers found
Pigott dead. Ho had shot himself in tlio

any doubt n3 to his identity. The English
embassy officials have identified the body as
that of Pigott. On Thursday tho forger

London.
Tho message gave his address in Madrid,
and probably from this telegram tho govern
ment learned that Pigott was in Madrid. A
note book containing tho addresses of a mini
her of people in Ireland was found on tho
body of tho suicide.

Russia is not likely to allow tho oppor
tunity to escajw of sei.ing upon Herat,
which has been described as the key to
India-
If tho war is prosocuted by the ameer,
who is England's trouble protege, it is likely
to bring England and Russia again into dip
lomatic and possibly actual conflict. Eng
land will fight for the control of Herat.
