BnooKLYX, ov. CO. Dr. Taliuage
preached to-day the tenth of his series of
sermons on his Palestine tour, describing his
experiences on the lake whose waters were
once stilled at the command of Christ. The
sermon, which was delivered in the Brook
lyn Academy of Music in the morning and
as usual repeated before an enormous audi
ence at service in XewYork, in the evening,
was from the test: "He entered into a ship,
and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude
-rss by the sei on the land " Mark. 4: i.
It U Tuesday morning in our Palestine expe
licnccs, and the sky is a blue Galilee above, as
in tiie boat we ail tbc blue Galilee beneath. It
is 13 miles Ions and six miles wide, but the at
mosphere is so clear it seems as if I could cast
a stone from beach to beacli. Tiie lake looks as
though it had been let down on silver pulleys
from tbc heavens and were a section of the sea
of class that St. John describes as a part of the
celestial landscape. LaLe Galilee is a
depression of COO feet in which
the Iliver Jordan widens and tarries a
little, for the Hirer Jordan comes in at its
north side and departs from its southslde. so
this lake bas its cradle and its crave. Its while
satin cradle is among the snout, of Jit. Her
non, where the Jordan starts and its sepulchre
i tbe Dead Sea. into which the Jordan emolics.
Lake Como of Ital3', Like Geneva ni Switzer
land, Like Lomond or Scotland, Lake Winni
pesaukee of America are larger, but Like Gali
lee is the createst diamrnd that ever dropped
from the finger of the clouds, and. whether en
canned on its banks a? we were yesterday and
worshiping at its crystal altars, or Wading into
its wates. tihicb make an ordinary bath solemn
as a baptism, or now putting out upon its spark
ling sni face in a boar, it is something to talk
about and pra about and sing about, until the
lip with v. nich o now describe it can neither
talk nor pray nor sing.
OT AX AXCIEST GALLEY.
Of the 230 warships Joscpbus maneuvered
on these waters for Josepheuswasa warrior as
v. ell as a historian there remains not one piece
of a bulk, or ono patch of a canvas, or one
splinter of an oar. But return to America we
never will until c have bad a sail upon this
inland sea. Not from a wharf, but from a
beach covered with black and white pebbles
vc go on board a boatof about 10 or 12 tons, to
be propelled partly by sail and partly by water.
The niasi lean o far forward that it seems
about to fall, but we find it was purposclv so
built, and the rope, throu-h a pullev manages
toboistandlct down the sail. It "is a rough
boat and as far a possiblo removed from a
Venetian gondolior a sportsman'sjaclit. With
a common saw and hammer and ax many of
ou could make a better one. Four bare-looted
Arabs, instead or setting down to their oars,
stand as they alwajs do in rowing, and pull
away trom shore. I insist on helping, for there
is uoihingnioie exhilarating to one than row
ing, but I soon bad enough of the clumsy oars
and tbe awkward attempt at wielding them
while in standing posture.
We put our overcoats and shawls on a small
deck in the stern of the boat, the very kind ot a
deck where Christ lay on a fisherman's coat,
when of old a tempest pounced upou the fish
ing smack of the allrighted disciple. Ospreys
and wild duck anu kingiishcrs fly overhead or
dip their wings into the lake, mistaking it for a
fragment ol fallen sky. Can it be that thoe
Bible stones about sudden storms on this lake
are true? Is ir possible tlia' a sea of such
seeming placidity of temper could ever nsj
- icui me ucaiensr it uoes not seem as
if this happy family cf elements could have
overbad a falling out and tbe water strike at
tbe clouds and the cloud-tnke at tbe water.
Pull away, oarsmen' On our right bank are
tbe hot sulphur baths, so hot thev are scald
ing, and tbe waters must cool off a'lnngwbilo
lorore band or foot can endure their temper
ature. Volcanoes have been boiling tbese
waters for centun-s. Four springs rol! their
resouices into two great swimming reservoirs.
King Herod there tried to bathe off tbe results
vi jus excesses, ana i-Jim anu Josepnus de
scribe the sporting? out ot these volcanic beats
and Joshua and Moses knew about tbe:a ami
tin moment long hues of pilcrims lroin all
parts of the earth are waiting for their turn to
step into the steaming restoratives.
SUCH ANTIPODES.
Side by side are tbe two great characters of
this lake region: Jesus and Herod Antipas.
And did any age produce any such antipodes,
any such antitheses, any such oppositesT Kind
ness and cruelty, holiness and filth, generosity
and meanness self-sacrifice and selfishness,
tbe supernal and the infernal, midnoou and
midnight. The father of this Herod Antipas
was a genius at assassination. He could manu
facture more reasons for putting people out of
this life than any man in all nistoiy. He sends
for Hjrcanus to come from Babylon to Jeru
salem to be made High Priest and slays him.
lie bas bis brother-in-law while in bathing with
him drowned by the king's attendants. Heslas
bis wife and his wife's mother, and two of bis
sons and Ills uncle, and filled a volume of atroc
ities the last chapter ot which was the mas
sacre of all the babes of ftethlehem. tVith such
a. father as Herod the Great, vou are not sur
prised that this Herod Antipas. whose palace
stood o-i the banks or this lake wo now sail
was a combination of wolf, reptile and byeni.
When the Christ who walked jouder banks
and sailed these waters was so good thatalmost
ccry rood of this scenery is associated with
somo wise word or some kindly deed, and all
literature, ana all art, and all earth, and all
Heaven arc put to the utmost effort in trying to
eipre-s how grand and glorious and lovely he
wa. and is. and is to be. The Cbnstly and
Herodic characters as different as the two lakes
we visit and not far apart. Galilee and the Der-d
Sea; the one flower-banked and tbe other bitu
minous and blasted: the one hoveicdoverby
tbe mercy of Christ, the other blasted by the
wrath of God; the one full of finny tribes
sporting in the clear depths the other forever
liteless: tne waters of tue one sweetand pleas
ant to tbe taste, the other bitter and sharp and
disgusting. Awful Dead Sea! Glorious Gen
nesaret !
We will not attempt to cross' to the eastern
side of tins lake, as I had thought to do, for
tbose regions are inhabited by a thieving and
murderous rate, and one must go thoroughly
armed, and as 1 never shot anyone and have no
ambition to be shot, I sai. : "Let us stay by the
we-tcra shore." But we look over to the bills
o! Gadara, on the other side, down which 2,000
swine, after bem i)o.Hfcsfil tw ?li rlnvii -,
into the lake, and bringing down on Christ for
permitting it the wrath of all the stock raisers
of thit country, because ot this ruining of the
pork business.
A CIIAXGE OF DIET DEEDED.
Infidelity scoffs at tbe idea that tbose swine
should have run into the lake. But it was quite
natural that under the heat and burnm" of
that demoniac possession they would start"for
the water to get cooled off. Would that all the
swine thns possessed had plunged to the samo
drow nine, tor to this day the descendants of
some ot those porcine creatures retain the de
ruons. and as the devils pre cast out of man
into them, they now afflict the human race
with the dct lis of scroluU that comes from
eating the inclean meat. The healthiest people
on earth aro the Israelites, because they follow
the bill of fare which God in the book of Leviii-
iimicwiiiciiiiinH race, and our splendid
r reucb doctor. Pasteur, and our glorious Ger
man doctor. Koch, may go on with their good
work of killing parasites m the human svstem
but until the world corrects its diet, and goes
back to the divine legulation at tbe begiiiutn"
the nuiuan race will continue to be possessed
of the devils of microbe and parasite. But I
did not mean to cross over to the eastern side
or Lake Galilee even In discussion.
Pull away, ye Arab oarsmen! And we come
along the shore nearby Inch stand great preci
pices of brown and red. and groy limestone
crowned bj -jasalt intbo sides of which arc
yast caverns, sometimes the hiding place of
bandits, and sometimes the home of honest
shepherds and sometimes the dwcllin- place of
pigeons, and vultures, and casles. Daring ono
of Herod's wars his enemies hid in thea
mountain caverns and the sides were too steer,
for Herod's army to descend, aud the attempt
to climb in tbe face of armel men would have
called down extermination. So Herod bad
great cages ot wood, iron-bound, made and
tilled them with soldiers and let tbem down
from the top of the precipices until thev cava
signal Uiat they weie level with tbe caverns
and then from tbese cagts they stepped out to
the mouth or the caverns anil bavin" set
enough grass and wood on Urc to til the caverns
with tuioke and strangulation, tbe hidden peo
ple would come forth to die; and if not coming
forth voluntarily. Herod's men would pull them
out with long iron hooks, and Joseph us says
that one father rather than submit to tbc at.
tacking army, flung his wife and seven children
don Uie precipice, and then leaped t them
to bis own death.
AV HOfE OF DANGLR.
I bad all alcng that morning been reacting
from the New Testament the story of occur
rences on, and around that lake. Bat our
Bible was closed now, and It was as much as we
could to do bold fast, and wish for land. If
tbe winds and the waves had continued to in
crease in violence tbe following 15 minutes in
the same ratio, as in tbe first tire, and We bad
been still at their mercy, our hones would have
been bleaching in the bottom of Like Gcnne
saret instead of our being here to tell the story.
But the same Power that rcscned the fishermen
of old. to-dav safely lauded our partv. What
a Christ for rough weather! All tbe sailor
Iwys ought to fly to Him as aid those Galilean
mariners. All you in the forecastle, and all you
who run up and down the slippery ratlines,
take to sea with you Him who with a quiet
word sent the winds back through the mount
ain gorges. Some of yon Jack Tars to whom
these words will come need to "tack slap" and
change vour course if you are going to get
across tho sea of life safelv, and gam the heav
enly harbor. Belav there. Ready about! Helm'.,
a-lce! Mainsail haul! Yon have too valuable a
cargs on board to run into the Goodwins or the
Skerries.
"Star of peace! beam o'er the Dillow
Bless the soul tbat sighs for thee;
Bless tbe sailor's lonely pillow.
Far. far at sea."
Here at Capernaum, the Arabs having in
their arms carried us asbire to the only place
where our Lord ever had a pastorate, and we
stepped amid the ruins of the church, where
He preached agalu and again, and again, the
synagpguc, whose rich sculpturing lay there,
not as when others see it In spring-time, cov
ered with weeds and loathesome with reptiles,
but In that December weather, completely un
covered to our agitated and intense gaze. On
one stone of that synagogue Is tho sculpturing
of a pot of manna, an artistic commemoration
of tbe timo when the Israelite 'cre fed by
manna in the wilderness, and to which sculpt
uiing. no doubt, Christ pointed npwird while
He was preaching that sermo., on this very
spot, in which He said: "Not as jour fathers
did eat manna and are dead; he that eatetb of
this bread shall live forever." Wonderful
Capernaum. Scene of more miracles than any
place in all the earth! Blind eyes kindlingwith
the morning. Withered arms made to pulsate.
Lepers blooming into health. The dead girl re
animated. OXE OF TIIE aiXHACLES.
These Arab tents which on this December
day I find in Palestine, disappear and I sec Ca
pernaum as it was when Jesus was pastor of the
church here. Look it that wealthy home, tbe
architecture, the marble front, the upholstery,
tbe slaves in uniform at the doorway. It is
the residence of a courtier of Herod, probably
Chuzaby name, his wife Joanna, a Christian
disciple. But something is tbe matter. The
slaves are lu great ciciic ojent, and the courtier
living there runs down tbe front steps and
takes a horse and puts him at full run across
tbc country. The boy of that nobleman is
dying of tphnid tcver. All tho doctors have
failed to give relief. But about five miles up
the country, at Cana, there is a Divine Doctor.
Jesus by name, and the agonized father has
gone for Him, and with what earnestness those
can understand who bavc had a dying child in
the house. This courtier cries to Christ:
"Come down ere my child dief"
While the father is absent, and at 1 o'clock in
the atternoon. the people watching tbe dying
boy see a change in the countenance, aud
Joanna, the mother, on one side of his conch
says: "Why. this darling is getting well; the
lover nas broken; see tho perspiration on his
forehead; did any of vou give him any new
kind ot medicine?" "o." is the answer.The bov
turns on bis pillow, bis delirium gone, and asks
for something to cat and says: "Where's
father?" Oh, be has gone np to Cana to get a
young doctor of about SI years of age. But no
doctor is needed now in this honse at Caper
naum. The people look at tbc sun-dial to find
what time of the day it is. and see it is just past
noon, aud I o'clock. Then tbey start out and
meet the returning father and as soon as they
come within speaking distance they shout at
the top of their voices: "Your boy is getting
wclL" "Is it possible?" says the father, "When
did tho change for tho better take place?"
"One o'clock" is the answer. "Why," says the
courtier, "that is just the hour that Jesus saia
to mo 'Thy son livetb.' One o'clock."
As they gather at the evening meal what
gladness on all tbe countenances in that borne
at Capernaum! The mother, Joanna, has not
bad sleep for many nights, and she now falls
off into delightful slumber. The father, Chuza,
thelierodian courtier, worn out with anxiety
as well as by tbe rapid journey to and from
Cana. iijsoon in restful unconsciousness.
Joanna was a Christian before, but I warrant
she was more of a Christian afterward. Did
tbc father, Chuza, accept the Christ who had
cured the bij? Is there in all the earth a.
parent so ungrateful for tbe convalescence or
restoration of an imperiled child as not to go
into a room and kneel down and make sur
render to the almighty love that came to the
rescue.
THE roWEK OF PEAYEH.
The mightiest agency in tho universe is
prayer and it turns even tbe Almighty. It de
cides tbc destinies of individuals, families and
nations. During our sad civil war a gentleman
was a guest at tbe White House in Washing
ton and he gives this incident: "1 bad been
spending three weeks in tbe White House with
Mr. Lincoln, as bis guest. One night it was
just after the battle of Bull Hun 1 was restless
and could not sleep. I was repeating the part
whicb 1 was to take in a public performance
The hour was past midnight. Indeed, it was
coming near to tbe dawn when I beard low
tones proceeding from a private room where the
President slept. The door was partly open. I
instinctively walked in and tbcre I saw a sight
which I shall never forget. It was the Presi
dent kneeling before an onen Bible. The light
was turned low in the room. His back was
turned toward me; for a moment I was silent as
I stood looking in amazement and wonder.
Then be cried out in tones so pitiful and sor
rowful: "Oh tbou God that beard Solomon in
the night when be prayed for wisdom, hear me!
I cannot lead this people. I cannot guide the
affairs of this nation wlthont Thy help, I am
poor and weak and sinful. Oh God who didst
hear Salomon wheu he cried for wisdom, bear
me and save the nation!" You see we don't
iced to go back to Biblo times for evidence
that prayer is heard and answered.
But some one may sav that Christ at Caner
naum healed that courtier's child, yet He would
not have done it for one in bumble life. Why,
in that very Capernaum He did the same thing
for a dying slave, belonging' to tbe man who
had made a present to tbe town of the church
of which Jesus was tho pastor, the synago'gue
among whose ruins I to-day leap frnmfrasment
to fragment. This was tbe cure ot a Roman
soldier" slave, whose only acknowledged rights
were the wishes of his owner. And none are
now so enslaved or so humble or sick or so sin
ful, but tbe all-sympathetic Christ Is ready to
help thcra. readv to cure them, ready to eman
cipate them. Hear it! Pardon for all. Mercy
for all. Helpforall. Comfort for all. Heaven
for all. Oh, this Lake Galilee! What a refresh
ment for Christ it must have been utter sym
pathizing with the sick, and raising the dead,
and preaching to the multitudes all day long to
come do n on these banks in the uigbt-time
and feel tbe cool air of the sea on His hot face,
and look up to tbe stars, the lighted lamps
around tbo heavenly palaces from which He
bad descended.
GALILEE THES AND NOW.
"But," says some one, ''why was it that
Christ coming to save the world should spend
so much of His time on and around so solitary
a place as Lake Galilee? There is only one city
of any size on its beach, and both the Western
and Eastern shores are a solitude, broken only
by tbc sounds coming irom tne mud hovels of
tbe degraded. Why did not Christ begin at
Babylon tbe mighty, at Athens the learned, at
Cairo the historic, at Thebes the hundred
gated, at Rome the triumphant? If Christ was
going to save the world, why not go where the
world's people dwell? Would a man, wishing
to revolutionize for good tbe American conti
nent, pass his time amid the fishing huts on
the shores of Newfoundland?" My friends,
Galilee was the hub of tbe wheel ot civili
zation and art, and the center of a popula
tion tbat staggers realization. On tbe
shore or the lake we sail to-dav, stood
nine great cities. Scythopolis, Taricuaa,
Hippos, Gamala. Chorazm, Capernaum, Ueth
saula, Magdala, Tiberias and many villages,
the smallest of which bad 15.000 inhabitants,
according to Jofepbns. and reaching from the
lieach back into the country in all directions.
Palace, temples, coliseums, gymnasiums,
amphitheaters, towers, gardens terraced ou the
hillsides, fountains bewildering with sunlight,
baths upon whose mosaic floors Kings trod;
wunc this lake irom wnero meauruan enters
it to wl.pre tho Jordan leaves it. was beautiful
with all stvles of shallop, or dreadful with all
kinds of war galleon. K.mr thousand ships,
history savs, were at one time upon these
waters. Battles wre fought there, which
shocked all nations with their consequence'.
"Here mingling blood with pure and sparkling
foam.
In her last throes Juda fought with Rome."
Upon those sea fights looked Vespasian, and
Titus and Trajan, aud whole empires. From
one of these naval encounters so many of tbo
dead floated to tbe beach, tbev could not soon
enough be entombed, and a plague was threat
ened. Twelve hundred soldiers escaping trom
these vessels of war-were one dav massacred in
the amphitheater at Tiberias. For three hun
dred years that almost continuous city en
circling Lake Galilee was tbe metropolis of our
planet. It was to tbe very heart of the world
that Jesus came to soothe its sorrows, and
pardon its sins, and heal its sick, and emanci
pate its enslaved and reanimate its dead.
On thou blessed Cbrist who didst come to the
mighty cities encircling Lake Galilee! come it
mercv to all our great cities of to-day. Tbou
who didst put Thy band on tbe white inane of
tbe foaming billows of Gennesarct, and make
tbem lie down at Thy feet, busli all the raging
passions or tbe world. Oh thou blessed Christ
who on the night when tbe disciples were try
ing to cro-s this lake and "the wind was enn
tiary." alter nino hours of rowing bad made
only three miles, didst come stepping on water
that at the touch of Thy foot hardened into
crystal, meet all our shipping whether on placid
or stormy seas, and say to all Tby people now
by whatever style ot tempest tossed or driven
as Thou didst to the drenched disciples in tbe
cyclone, "Be of good cheer. It is L Be not
afraid!"
A REVIEW OF TRADE.
Bad Weather the First Part of No
vember and Tight Money,
THE LAST ADVERSE TO JOBBERS.
Cereals and Produce Are Now Certainly
Down to Bed Rock.
HIDES LOWER AND LEATHER QOIET
OFFICE OF PITTSBUKG DISPATCH,
SATUBDAY. NOV. 2, 189a i
Produce and Cereals.
In lines of country produce trade has
been unusually quiet since Thanksgiving.
The faith of shippers of poultry to Pitts
burg markets proved too strong this week,
and commission men have abundance leit
over, whicb will prove a loss. The month
of November, of which thi is the last bus
iness day, bas not been very satisfactory to
jobbers in any line. The first 20 days of tbe
month were about as dismal as steady rains
could make Hum, and the last 1U days, though
bright and pleasant, have been clouded by
financial storms, and a tight money mar
ket. With depression of stocks and financial
uncertainties whicb prevail of late, buyers are
very naturally inclined to pursue the hand-to-mouth
policy, and hence transactions are light.
In tbe lines of cereals and general produce
markets have been slow and drooping for tbo
past week. Receipts of cereals are heavy and
sales light, with the general situation in favor
01 tne buyer. The stock of nnur in the bands
of Pittsburg jobbers is unusually large, proba
bly never larger, and while prices are main
tained outwardly, there is little doubt that
some dealers who aro heavily loaded af o cut
ting on our quotations.
At sources ot supply flour is firmly held and
they who sell under present quotations will
find it difficult to replace stock to advantage.
All along cereal lines bottom is certainly
reached and blessed is tbe jobber who can hold
on a little lunger, as he is certain to reap a
good harvest. In produce lines the strong
factors are potatoes and apples. Both have
shown an upward tendency the past few weeks,
and prospects are for still higher prices. There
bas been no marked change in dairy prod
ucts for several weeks past. Country butter
of auy quality below fancy brands
is very poor stock and prices are only
nominal. Consumers prefer oleo to butter
that has a taint of suspicion on it. Kven the
best creamery butter is quiet, and while prices
are maintained tbe demand has been unusually
light all this season. Tbe prices of cheese
which ruled at tbe beginning of the month pre
vail at tbe close. Provisions will stand for the
week to come at the same figures as prevailed
the last week. Packers are strong in the
faith that bottom price of ham and
lard has been reached, and tbat any
future changes must be upward. The run of
hogs, both here and Chicago, has fallen off the
past week, and prices are 25c per cwt. above tho
lowest point.
At the local stock yards markets this week
were the best of the season.
All offerings of cattle were promptly taken,
at an advance of 10c to 20c per cwt. over last
week's prices. With a clearing of financial
skies prospects are good for a prosperous
season to jobbers of produce and cereals.
Hides and Leather.
Buff hides aro now dowu w ithin c per lb of
the lowest price reached last spring, when they
were lower than they had been since before the
war. For a number of weeks past there has
been a steady decline of about Jc each week.
Tanners and bide dealers are now paying from
tyia to 5c per ft for buff hides and TJc to ".c
for heavy steer hides, according to selection,
quality, condition and freight points. Calf
skins are bolding up fairly well, but tbey, too,
are asbade lower and weaker tho past few
weeks. The late decline in stocks and financial
uncertainties have aggravated the depression
which already prevailed in the hide trade.
Advices from Boston, which is the Eastern
center of the hido and leather trade, indicate
the same situation there as here.
Said a representative of one of tbe leading
tanneries ot Allegheny: "Light hides are now
almost to their lowest point for a generation or
more, and it looks as if bottom was hardly
reached. As to leather trade, demand is light,
but wo alwajs look for quietness at this season
of tbe year. There is little accumulation of
stock in harness or sole leather lines, and prices
remain unchanged. We look for no active
movement now until after tbe ne w year opens."

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
Markets are overstocked with poultry and
prices are the lowest of tho season. Several
thousand pounds were unloaded yesterday by
commission men at mere nominal prices.
Fresh eggs are a shade higher. Nearby stock
is very scarce. Creamery and country butter
are quiet. There is a good demand fur choice
apples and potatoes, and markets are likely to
'advance before long in both lines. All com
mission men report quiet trade since Thanks
giving. The approach of settlement day has
much to do with present quietness. Retailers
uniformly buy sparingly at the close of the
month, as all purchases made on the last days
of tbe month are payable on the first of the in
coming month.

KEW YORK STOCKS.
Market Opens Irregular, Rnlcs Quiet anil
Closes Lower on Almost All Shares
Tfliat Becomes of Specjo From the
Banks a Puzzling Question.
New York, November 29. To-day's market
was very quiet, especially for Saturday. The
powers of depression went to work, and, with
some liquidation ol long accounts, prices
drooptd all along the line, while the properties
to which tbe bears paid particular attention
wero decidedly weak, and scored marked losses
as the result of the day's operations.
London had no buying orders this morning,
and tho market, while very quiet at the open
ing, was inclined -to continue the downward
movement of yesterday afternoon, but Sugar
was up 1 per cent on the report of the deposit
of the Mathlessen stock, and rose 1 per cent
farther to 60.
The general list opened irregular and shaded
off. slightly, and when tbe denial of the deposit
of tbe certificates reached the street. Sugar
dropped away sbarolv. ncarlv 3 tier cent, and
the general list followed. The bears attacked
Lackawanna and Union Pacific with Atchison
and St. Paul, and each uf those stocks dropped
about 1 per cent, while Cleveland. Cincinnati,
Chicago and St Louis lost over 2, and Wheeling
anrl Like Erie preferred even more.
The buying was of a good character, but
could not stem the tide of the offerings of short
stock, and the declino was not checked, tbe
market closing weak at about tbe lowest prices,
though there were a few feeble rallies toward
tbe end of tho session, bnt tbey bad no influ
ence upon the general list.
The .Postsajs: Technically the bank state
ment was favorable, because it showed an in
crease in the surplus reserve, aud also because
the liquidation of loans nearly corresponds to
tbe decrease of deposits, but tbe continued loss
ofsperio indicates a drain to some quarter
which has continued for months, and in the
last month bas taken nearly 7,000.000 of specie
out of the New York banks. None of it bas
gone to Europe, and the question as to where
it does go is as puzzling as the one as to what
has become of the 82,000,000 of currency put
out by the Treasury in September and October.
While tbe banks of New York, Boston and
Philadelphia are obliged to resort to clearing
house certificates, and the banks of Chicago
are said to be discussing the same policy, it is
apparent that tbe vast Increase of circulating
capital is not lodged In banks.

Local Stocks Find Another Bottom
to
Scrape Sellers Heavy Losers.
The wreckers obtained full control of the
local stock market Saturday, and almost run
it into the ground. The most prononnced bulls
became rattled, and some of tbem sold. Phila
delphia Gas had no support and reached a
point hitherto thought Impossible. It sold
down'to 1SK- hut closed a fraction better on a
late order. Other natural gs stocks let go in
sympathy with tbo leader, Chartiers selling at
19 and Wnoeling being bid down to 13. Man
ufacturers' Gas held Its own. Electric took
another backward step, while, tbe Tractions
wero mere wall flowers. Switch was not wanted.
and bad no bids.
There was nothing new in conditions. The
well-worked rumors of tho past week or two
were bandied about. Even tbe Gasers bad
their friends, lhe slump was mainly due to
tbo difficulty ot getting money on stock collat
eral and to the weakness of the Eastern mar
kets. Tbe close was generally at or near the
lowest point of the week. Brokers wero by no
means confident that bottom bad been touched.
I That depends upon tbe "financial standing of
tbe holders. Sellers during the week were
heavv losers.

HAE3 CASE.
Bank
Clearings Show a Handsome
Gala
Over Last Year.
The local money market ruled strong the
past week. Calls from merchants and manu
facturers were promptly responded to, bnt the
common herd got very little comfort and less
money. The inability of outsiders to borro.r
wss tbo main cause ot the depression in stocks.
Everything else held its own.
The business situation, as shown by Clearing
House reports, is all right. It bashot even
beeu touched by the hem or the panic" Bank
clearings tho pant week', Ave days, were over
S3.000.WJO in execs of the corresponding week
of last year. Tbe month also shows np hand

Mr, LEOroLD Godowskz, who wa3 a prodigy

night ago and bas won remarkable praise for
bis virtuosity and varying opinions as to tbe

The National Conservatory of Music of
America has added to its faculty as professor
of violin. Mme. Camilla Ursn. who is particu
larly interested in conservatory work. If is
well known that, according to the rules of the
Paris Conservatory, boys only were admitted

Urso was recognized by Aubcr, the director.
Since then the conservatory has opened its
doors to all girls of promise.

Scharwenka will have tbe assistance of Mr.

together with a grand chorus of mixed voices
and several distinguished soloists. Here is
just the man to fill W. T. Best's place in the
otar course: Pittsburg must hear Scharwenka
at all hazards.
FBAlfCHETTl's "Asrael," which had its first
American production at tbe opening of tbe
German opera season in New York last
Wednesday, was conceded to be an interesting
example of the modern-Italian school with its
strongly Wagnerian tendencies, but not suffi
ciently inspired to claim high and permanent
rank. Mr. Stanton's new singers in this cast
were well received and pronounced an im
provement upon last year's importations. Next
Friaay will witness tbe American first-night of
another opera in the same category, Smareg
lia's "Vassal of Szigeth."

his style lmpasioned and full ot verve. He has
played with overwhelming srecess at many of
ihe'muical festivals throughout the country,
and is in constant request at such concerts as
Thomas and other leading musical organiza

week and. was bighlr praised by the Boston
newspapers. Mr. Wilczek has a bright future
before him."
The cantata "Until" will be given at tho
Sixth Avenue Theater in Beaver Falls on
Thursday and Friday evenings next, and a
particularly fine performance is looked for, as
the principals and chorus have been in active
rehearsal for many weeks under the direction
of -Mr. John A. Kosensted. The cast is ar
