in passenger rates produced an unfavorable
effect. Near midday the market began to

The Poet, in its financial article, savs:
“There is some improvement in the general
situation at the West—in fact the war on
passenger rate* between Chicago and the
Missouri river appears to te at an end—but
the war between the West Shore and the New
York Central promises to be worse before it
is better. It is likely to be extended to Penn
sylvania, by reason of the Wagner and Pull
man Sleeping Car Companies becoming in
volved in the fight.”
The weekly statement of the associated
banks, issued from the clearing house to-day,
shows the following changes: Loans in
creased, 494.700; specie decreased, 4M>2,700;
legal tenders increased, $215,600; deposits in
crease t, ?25ii,500; circulation increased, $65,-
300; reserve decreased, $911,400. The banks
now hold $3 !,281,450 in excess of legal require
ments.

Chicago. Nov. I.—The grain marketopened
an hour later than usual this morning on ac
count of November deliveries. When the bell
struck at 10:30 o'clock trading commenced
quite lively, and everything for awhile
seemed to be firmer. The w heat market ad
vanced J-iC under some buying. The boom
was not very heavy, yet it is quite evident
that the intention is to put the market up as
much as possible on the strength of dimin
ished acreage of fall sowing,which is reporttd
from Kansas and Dakota. Liverpool was
slow and Mark Lane dull and neglected, with
Id per cental decline in all. The receipts to
day were alMut the same of winter and larger
of spring. Towards 1 o’clock the market fell
off to about the closing figures of yesterday;
74*4(<*74! 4 c for November, 76>4(*76>4c for De
cember. anil 7674@77c for January. Corn at
the opening seemed disposed to follow wheat
to some extent, hut the determination to ad
vance prices did not hold out long. There is
a good, steady consumptive demaud for corn
a: almost all seasons oi the year, and receipts
continue light. Corn at Liverpool was firm.
The receipts here were a little larger than
those of yesterday, but still were not heavy.
November declined and other options
remained almost stationary. Oats remains
steady andfirm at slight fluctuations in price.
They sympathize with the stronger and lead
ing markets. There was a pretty fair amount
of activity in provisions, January pork open
ing at i11’52 and selling up to sli 65. Novem

Correspondence of the ilomina fTeere.
Washington, Oct. 31.—The Prime
Meridian Congress, which began its ses
sion a month ago at the State Department,
having as its members representatives of
twenty-six countries, has just finished its
work, and adjourned sine die. It has
been, in a marked degree, a “deliberative
body,” having been one full month on this
single subject, holding an average of but
two sessions a week, of about three hours
each. Its last session was purely a
formal one for the purpose of confirming
the “protocols.”
“Were the proceedings really in
French ?” was asked of one of the mem
bers.
“Well,” he laughed, they were in two
languages. 1 imagine there were more
people there who understood English than
French, but the meeting voted that the
French language should be the one used,
and so it was. But in point of fact there
were numbers who did not understand it,
and everything important that was sub
mitted in French had to be translated into
English. The majority understood it bet
ter in English.”
“Rather a farce making the French the
language to be used then, wasn’t it, es
pecially since the Congress met in an Eng
lish-speaking country?”
“Well,” he smiled, “that is a matter of
opinion, perhaps. There are some people
who thought it rather ridiculous. It was
a compliment to the Frenchmen, which, I
am afraid, however, did not have much
effect, for they did not assent to the con
clusions of the Congress as to the prime
meridian.”
“Will they do so, do you think, or will
their country ?”
“That can only be guessed. They ex
hibited a good deal of feeling in the mat
ter; that is to say, they were very earnest
in their advocacy of the adoption of some
entirely neutral point, which should not
honor any one nation more than another.
I presume they w ere instructed to vote
for Paris, or perhaps to at least refuse to
vote tor any meridian giving one of the
other great nations ol Europe special
prominence. At least they did not vote
for Greenwich, although a majority w r as
overwhelmingly in its favor. They finally
refused to vote at all.”
“And what will be the result, do you
think? Will their government ignore the
work of the congress and go on making
its reckonings from Paris, as heretofore ?”
“That is pretty hard to say. The con
gress docs not bind the governments at
all. Its members merely agreed to rec
ommend the adoption, by the several gov
ernments represented, of the Greenwich
meridian. I piesume the French Govern
ment will not take any action recognizing
this meridian, though I imagine that the
meridian agreed upon will by-and-by be
come universal, and will be adopted by
the French in time.”
“You think most of the other countries
will adopt it at once then?”
“Yes, 1 think there is little doubt of it;
some by common consent, and many by
legislative or official action.”
“And has the work ot the congress been
satisfactory then?”
“Quite so. It accomplished all that
was expected, except the refusal of the
French delegates to assent to its conclu
sions.’’
M. JANSSEN, FRENCH DELEGATE,
‘‘What were the reasons for adopting
Greenwich as the prime meridian instead
of some new and entirely neutral one?’'
“There were numerous and very good
ones. The most important one, however,
was that nearly 75 per cent, of the com
mercial world, and perhaps nearly as
large a proportion of the scientific world,
already recognizes and makes use of this
as a prime meridian, while the other 25
per cent, divides itself into a halt dozen
sections, reckoning from here and there
promiscuously. Why, so universally is
the Greenwich meridian used that there
are often as hieh as 40,000 charts issued
at one time there for use by the navigators
and others recognizing this meridian. It
would have been a great and useless
expense to make a change. Besides—and
this is a point that did not seem to occur
to many who looked upon the adoption of
this meridian as a special honor to Eng
land—this, if adopted, will not be any
longer the meridian of Greenwich. It will
be merely the prime meridian. Green
wich will disappear.”
The congress itself and its various
members has been an interesting study.
A gathering of men trorn all the civilized
nations of the world would in itself be of
great interest, but when it is composed of
the most prominent scientists of the na
tions of the world, it becomes doubly in
teresting. Prof. Janssen, the French
gentleman who made so vigorous a fight
against Greenwich, is director of the As
tronomical Observatory, one of the great
est of not only France but Europe. He is
a curious figure. Short, fat, lame, with
head awry, clothes hanging about him in
a way that suggests anything but the
Parisian, a rather thin * and squeeky
voice, a very much wrinkled and
not over clean shirt front and
collar, and a contempt of any language
but the French. He had to have all the
English spoken in the Congress translated
to him, while his replies were in the most
excitable French. He did more talking
than any one man in the Congress, and
his queer figure, with white frizzly hair
and beard, was liable to pop up at any
moment and tire off a string of excited
French which made the official steno
graphers wild with anxiety, and the list
eners who might be in reach of his wildly
flying hands ana arms rather anxious.
The other French delegate, M. Lefaivre,
had comparatively little to say, evidently
recognizing the ability of M. Janssen to
take care of the subject and the French
nation.
Another of the members who took a
pretty active part in the proceedings was
Senor Valera, the most prominent of the
Spanish representatives in the congress.
He speaks both French and English, being
a gentleman of broad literary as well as
scientific attainments. Next to the
French, American and English delegates
he was probably most active. Of the
American members there were five. Of
these the most highly honored was Ad
miral Rodgers, who was made presiding
officer. Prof. Rutherford was one of the
most active participants in the work of
the congress, and is spoken of by its
members as one ot the ablest and most in
fluential of the delegates.
RUSTEM EFFENDI, TURKISH DELEGATE.
Another of the American members, who
is especially well known and honored in
Washington, is Prof. Cleveland Abbe, the
Professor of the United States Signal
Office, and who has been one of the most
persistent and effective workers in bring
ing about this congress. Another gentle
man who carried off a large share of the
honors was Prof. Adams, director of the
Cambridge Observatory, and who was
generally recognized as the ablest of the
representatives of Great Britain. An in
teresting figure in the congress was the
Turkish representative, ltustem Effendi,
who was a regular attendant, and whose
careful interest and earnest remarks and
questions showed the interest the “sick
man of Europe" is taking in the subject.
He was one of the most neatly dressed
men in the congress, his closely fitting
black Prince Albert contrasting agreea
bly with the red cap, while it displayed a
well knit and rounded figure.
The representative on behalf of Den
mark, Mr. Carl Steen Andersen de Bille,
who was to have been here, was unfortu
nately detained at hotffe. His absence
was much regretted by members of the
congress, as it will be by many people of
YY’nshington, where he has been for some
time as Danish Minister. It is stated that
he will not return to this countrv.
The Liberian representative in the con
gress was a man who has probably done
more to make Liberia what it is than any
other now living, Gol. Coppinger, the Li
berian Consul General here and Secretary
of the Liberian Colonization Society. He
has been connected with the association
for more than a quarter of a century, and
under his auspices thousands of colored
people of this country have found homes
in Liberia.
An interesting and much interested
man in this congress was Prof. Kikuchi,
Dean of the Scientific department of the
University of Tokio, Japan. He came
here solely to attend the conference, and
though he had never been in this country
before, is spoken of by those in attend
ance constantly as one of the most fluent
English-speaking members. He is re
ferred to in the highest of terms by those
who met him socially as well as in the
congress, as a man of fine intellect aud
thorough training. Another interesting
figure and face was that of the Hawaiian
representative, Aholo, a native of that
kingdom aud Privy Counsellor of the
kingdom. He is the darkest skinned of
the entire number, thouah there were
several whose complexions bore evidence
as to their nationality or residence.
PROF. KIKUCni, JAPANESE MEMBER.
One of the most attentive members was
the representative of Switzerland, Col.
Emil Frey. He did not take as active a
part in the discussions as did the French
gentleman, however, though his constant
attention, polished address and line face
and figure combined to render him a no
table figure in the congress.
The members of the congress leave at
once for their homes, except in the cases
of those whose diplomatic or other duties
detain them in this country. The general
expression, except in the case of the
French and, perhaps, one or two others, is
of perfect satisfaction with the result of
the congress, and a belief that it will be
generally accepted by the scientific and
commercial world.
BRANDED AS A LIE.
The Story of Mrs. needier’* Tragic
Death in Japan Denounced as Without
Foundation.
The report of the terrible fate of Mrs.
Beecher, who it was said was a native of
Georgia and an American adventuress, in
Japan, says a Washington special of Oct.
29, appears to be incorrect. The llepubli
can this morning prints the following gos
sip about the affair: *
“The story is so impossible that it would
be useless to deny it,” said Secretary Mi
sake, of the Japan Legation, when the re
iterated story of Mrs. Beecher’s execu
tion was show r n to him last night. “In
the first place, Mrs. Beecher has never
been in Japan. The w riter of the story
could not have known anything about the
social condition of the country. I cannot
understand how it could have b eu writ
ten, unless the party had been reading the
Arabian Nights’ stories. It looks more
like a scrap of ancient history than any
thing from modern times.”
“What is there in the customs of the
country that renders such an occurrence
such ah impossibility ?”
“In the first place, punishment by death
is only inflicted for murder, and, es
p 'cially, infanticide er p;.-t'icide,_ Then
h inging is the method of execution, and
has been for six years at least. Before
that zanzai, or cutting the head off with
the sword, was the method. Hanging is
now the only mode, and that is only
carried out after trial by court. The
jurors, or gosing kan, before whom, the
evidence is taken, are not selected for
their ignorance, as I am told is the case
here, but are appointed by the govern
ment for their fitness and selected from
a legal class.”
“Is there any punishment for infidelity
such as it is charged Mrs. Beecher com
mitted ?”
“None; nor is there any for marital un
faithfulness except social ostracism and
the divorce which the injured party may
procure, # Morals are fully as pure in
Japan as here or in Europe, and mis
tresses nre no more commonly or openly
kept than in any other country, and there
is far less of social wickedness than .in
many ol what are called more civilized
countries. Then again, the Emperor has
no such arbitrary power as he is repre
sented as exercising in this case. No one
who had lived for a month in Japan
would believe the story, much less write
such trash.”
“Is bow-stringing known as a means of
death in Japan ?”
“I never heard of it, except in accounts
of life in Turkey. We have no word for
it and know nothing of it, except in litera
ture. It has never been practiced in
Japan.”
Hon. 11. W. Dennison, Adviser to the
Foreign Office at Tokio, who has lately
returned to this city, after 15 years’ ab
sence in Japan, -confirmed what was
learned at the legation - regarding the im
possibility of the story. The Prime Min
ister, Son* Je, he represented as being the
last man to be even suspected of such an
alliance, and especially with a foreigner,
being extremely diffident and speaking
no language but bis own. In addition to
this, he was perfectly certain that Mrs.
Beecher, or the Countess Pourtales, has
never been in Japan. She was married
in this city, he said, the Count being at
the time an attache of the French Legation
here. They then lived in Paris, where
the lady took rank as a famous beauty,
being also well known for her intimacy
to the eccentric Princess Mutta-nich. Mr.
Dennison was told by a diplomat earlier
in the evening that he saw Mme. Pourtales
in Paris in 1876.
The other story which connected the
lady’s name with"that ot a French Colonel
was improbable, from the fact that the only
man of that description in Japan left there
in 1878. He was a middle-aged, married
man. Apart from all this, life is just as
well protected in Japan as here, the Code
Napoleon, with improvements, being in
full force and well administered. Many
mixed marriages existed, and both partie's
seemed happy and contented, the Japan
ese making good husbands and wives,
respectively, to foreigners. In addition
to those positive denials of the possibil
ity of the story, information is said to
be in possession ot parties in New York
to the effect that Countess Pourtales,
formerly Mrs. Beecher, was in Switzer
land. On Sept. 30 her husband was to
return to his post in Java. Friends in
New York are said to indignantly deny
that any of the alleged premises *for the
story are correct. She is said to have
been at Manibad on Sept. 23, and at the
Chateau de la Corhiere, Friebourgcanton,
Switzerland, on Sept. 30.
With Kvery Point In Her Favor.
Boston Globe.
It was in an East Boston ferry horse
car. She was slight, delicate and stand
ing up. He weighed over 200 pounds and
was sitting in the corner by the rear door.
Suddenly he jumped from his seat to ask
the conductor a question. She (innocent,
unthinking creature)thought he meant to
leave the car, and 60 she slid into the seat
he just vacated. Soon he concluded the
interview with the conductor and began
to back into his seat again. The little
woman saw the porportions of the bulkv
form gradually assume frightful magni
tude and a very alarming proximity.
Quickly digging her elbow into the ribs of
her neighbor (whose head and beard
looked like a bundle of saffron), she in
terested him sufficiently in the jeopardy
of her situation to induce him to raise his
colossal fist and “fend off” the settling
monster. Words cannot picture the look
of horror upon the man’s face when he re
ceived a vigorous thrust in the small of
bis back, and turned and saw this wi e
woman in bis seat. “Great Scott, ma’am!
Yer a pretty hard hitter, ain't yer? I
haiu’t had such a clip as that since I was
struck by a ice boat. O, don’t move,
ma’am, be just as easy as yer can. You’ve
ev’ry point in yer favor,”
REVELING IN CHAMPAGNE
FIVE THOUSAND QUARTS A DAY
DRUNK BY NEW YORKERS.
The Libation* Mixed with Flirtation
and Sin —Impecunions Clerk* Skir
mishing to be Gallant Without Spend

Correspondence of the Morning News.
Neyv York. Oct. 31.—“New Yorkers
drink fully 5,000 quarts of champagne per
day,” was the astounding assertion made
by a well-known wholesale wine mer
chant in response to an interrogatory put
by your correspondent a day or two ago.
“Eight or ten of the leading hotels in the
city handle one-fifth of the total, and the
balance is drank in restaurants, bar
rooms, private houses, and pleasure re
sorts of various degrees of morality. It
is perfectly surprising,” said my inform
ant, “how rapidly the consumption of
wine is increasing. It iurnishes auother
striking illustration of the increasing ex
traYaganceof the nation, especially that
portion of it confined within the limits of
Manhattan. It was but a few years ago
when the uncorking of a bottle of Mumrn’s
was looked upon as an event of consider
able importance and decidedly out of the
common, A small schooner'of foaming
Stout or a tiny glass of Holland
schnapps was looked upon as quite
good enough for anybody by the
short pantalooned old Knickerbockers,
who fathered the present generation’s
pretentious aristocrats. Now, however,
nature’s most favored vineyards can
hardly lurnish a beverage sufficiently deli
cate for the palates of these fastidious mod
ern princelings. Oh, but it’s a fine drink,”
said the merchant, with a merry twinkle
in his eye, as his attendant approached
with a tray containing glasses and a bot
tle just off the ice. “There is a great deal
of naughtiness in every bubble,” he con
tinued with something akin to a sigh as
he quailed my health and tossed off the
fluid in a thrice. Ilis statement contained
more truth than poetry. More than half
of the scandals which have furnished food
for the gossips within the last decade are
traceable directly to the champagne glass.
A box at the opera followed by a little
wine supper have furnished foundation
for thirteen of twenty-one prominent di
vorce suits which I have been able to re
call in less than five minutes of thiuking.
Millions are spent in wine annually. One
can hardly make a move in
New York now, if he makes any pre
tentions to aristocracy, without opening
a bottle of wine. At dinners and suppers
it is getting to be considered an indis
pensable accompaniment. If one leaves
the theatre between the acts, to be
“proper” be must accompany his cigar
ette and that of his friend with a pint
bottle of Nlumm’s Extra Dry. A night’s
outing and its accompanying dissipations
are no longer complete without the pro
verbial bottle. The cost of seeing the city
by gas light is, o( course, increased in
proportion to the number of bottles a man
loolisaly imagines he must consume be
fore he is in proper shape to enjoy all that
the city has to offer. As in every other
department of fashionable life, there are
fashions in wine, which are as change
able as any of the other accessories. For
a long time G. H. 31umm Yvas at the head
of the list, then Fommery Sec came to the
front, and for about two years it was
almost the only wine in demand at the
stylish places." Afterward people began
to imagine it was going off in quality, and
they took to drinking the dry Clicquot.
That, too, had its day. That is the way
these things run. There is more money
spent in advertising wines than there is
in spreading the announcements ol patent
medicines.
THE COMING GAY SEASON.
YVinter’s approach and the prepara
tions for coming gayeties are now every
where observable in the metropolis.
During the last week streets and shops
have been completely changed, and are
now as gay and crowded as they were
dull and vacant a few days ago. An af
ternoon walk up Broadway or Fifth ave
nue is better than the first 4 o’clock tea.
Meetings and greetings occur at every
step. It is true that households are not
yet lully mounted nor in good YVOrkin"
order, but pending_the s “bailment of En
glish butlers trench cooks Delmon
ico’s hospitable doors stand always
open, and the nightly reunion there is al
most like a private dinner on a large
scale. In private parties of Qirgps and
lours rFoy iii—isonie who haveTaiictF
ed within a few hours from a transatlan
tic steamer; others who have just arrived
from a distant ranch, hunting parties of
English swells and their American
chums, who a week ago were chasing
buffaloes in the far YVest ; the inevitable
lovers, who are to be found everywhere,
and the bustlind matrons fortified for heavy
duty in the approaching campaign. Nods
and smiles are exchanged at every turn,
and a foreigner looking in upon the
scene for the first time would marvel
what peculiar phase of social life it could
represent, for it is a scene exclusively
American, or, one might say, to be found
only in New York. YVhere in the city is
champagne more common as a table ac
companiment than at Delmonico’s, and
no similar place In the city can boast be
ing the scene of so many little flirtations,
sometimes not altogether innocent, or tid
bits of scandal which lurnish delicious
food for a certain species of women. As
the season approaches no question com
mands more serious attention with young
men whose desire to be gallant exceeds
the contents of tbeir pocketbooks than
how to indulge his “best girl” in a nice
little supper after the theatre without
bankrupting himself out of the whole of
liis week’s salary. The average
New York man is, of course,
not a millionaire. Failing in
this, if he has aspirations toward swell
dom, he hands her into a black cab,drives
for Delmonico’s or the Brunswick, has a
bottle of wine and a bird, an ice, some
cheese and coffee, and takes her home,
feeling like a millionaire. Tickets to the
theatre cost $3, the cab $3, and the supper
knocks such a stupendous hole in a $lO
bill that he gets home at least sls out ot
pocket. This sort of thiDg, if pursued to
a dissipated extent, is apt to have a seri
ous effect upon the finances of a S2O-a-
Yveek clerk. To most young men, though,
an expenditure of this sort is too steep.
They content themselv'es with a yellow
cab at 25 cents a mile, the street cars or
the elevated road. And after the theatre
the young lady is taken to some of the
many oyster houses iu the upper part of
town, which are built expressly for this
sort of trade. They are prettily arranged
restaurants, with snowy linen avid dozens
of square lest of beveled mirrors. The
oysters are well served and palatably
cooked. The consumption of an or
dinary girl, no matter if oysters are
dear, is limited, and as wine is out of the
question in an ordinary oyster house, she
takes beer, ale, tea, coffee, or some other
mode6t and inexpensive drink. Whereas
the young clerk is cheerlul and happy in
stead of melancholy and blue, which is
usually the case when she is taken to
Delmonico’s.
DANA’S SON TO MARRY.
Editor Dana of the Sun will not be lost
to sight beneath the overw helming ma
joritv^of votes w hich are sure to be cast
for Cleveland at the ensuing election.
Editor Dana has a happy faculty of keep
ing himself before the public, no matter
what comes or goes. On Nov. 11 he will
figure as the father of the groom in one of
the most fashionable weddings booked for
the ensuing winter. The high contract
ing parties will be Miss Butler-Duncan
and Mr. Paul Dana. Miss Butler-Duncan
is the only unmarried daugnter of Mrs.
William Butler-Duncan, anil for the past
three season’s she has been a great belle.
She has spent several years
abroad, and speaks French, Ger
man and Italian. Upon her
wedding day she will receive a settlement
from her father of SIOO,OOO, the same as
that to be given to Miss Carrie Astor.
Mr. Paul Dana is a tall handsome blonde,
and very popular among bis acquaint
ances. He is clever with his pen, is a
good conversationalist and a splendid
dancer. The coming marriage is agreeable
to both families. Over a thousand invita
tions have been issued, and the ceremony
will be performed by Bishop Potter.
After the church services there will be a
reception at the house, at No. 1 Fifth ave
nue. The mansion was built years ago,
and is made with an English basement, a
reception and dining-room taking up the
first floor, while the large drawing-rooms,
expensively furnished with rare pictures
and statuary, velvet carnets and satin
furniture, are on the second floor. The
bride and groom will stand in the front
room under a canopy of roses and receive
the congratulations of their friends.
Down stairs a table will be set with the
family silver and fragrant flowers, and a
bountiful collation will be served—the
rarest wines, fruits and bonbons, as well
as more substantial delicacies. A band
will be hidden in the conservatory to fur
nish music for the dancing. Late in the
afternoon the bride and groom will depart
on their wedding tour. The bride’s trous
seau, most of which was purchased
abroad, is very elaborate and beautiful.
The wedding dress Is of heavy Ivory white
satin, and forty yards were used in th®
making of it. The dress is made prin
cesse, with a train fully three yards long.
The front is draped in costly point lace in
a rose design, and caught up by clusters
of orange blossoms. The veil of poin
lace is very beautiful, and will be fas
tened to the hair with natural orange
flowers,and diamond stars falling it. folds
over the shoulders and train. Among the
presents will be a set of pearls, presented
by the bride’s mother, which are being re
set by Tiffany. Also a set of rubies and
a diamond pendant. A complete set of
solid silver will come from Mr. Butler-
Duacan, and old lace from other members
of the family. ‘ m.
Mary Anderson will reappear in New
York Oct. 12, 1885, and in Boston on Nov.
23 following. Her repertoire will be
“Romeo and Juliet,” “Pygmalion and
Galatea,” “Comedy and Tragedy,” and
“Ingomar,” and there is a chance that
“Cymbeline” will be added.
