Nkw York, April l:i. A New Or
leans kpedal says it is believed that
tire compromise will be completed
Wednesday,but some uneasiness is oc
casioned by a reported remark of
Wheeler concerning l ho status of llvo
members admitted by Hahn’s Legisla
ture. The Legislature will only sit
live days and pass no political bills.
Hahn opposes llte adjournment, ami
but few men of both parties favor it.
LATFJt.
Nf.w Okleah, April 13. Excitement
high concerning the adjustment as
proposed by Wheeler. West and
Pinehback arc laboring assiduously
to defeat it, but most Republicans
stand by Kellogg in favor of it. Per
contra, the Wiltz party, Conserva
tives, will not be bound by it. In this
case extremes have met. A special
session convenes at noon to-morrow.
The result is not yet a certainty,
though the Republican State Central
Committee recommended the Wheel
er plan with but one dissenting vote.
Wheeler is bore, laboring for the
adoption of the plan.
Chicago, April 13. A Times’special
from New Orleans, says there is con
siderable agitation there touching
the near approach of the begin
ning of the exi ra session of the Legis
lature, and several of tiie Radicals,
composed of discarded members, P-d
by Pinehback, have come out with a
show of hands, as if they meant to
make trouble. A careful review of
the political situation developes an
excited state of affairs, but with ap
isiarane.es indicating the overthrow
of Pinehback and tiis faction.
All the Conservative members, 08
in number, are in the city. All the
Republicans will be here to-morrow.
Wheeler arrives to-night to give his
personal attention to tiie consumma
tion of his adjustment plans. It is
thought, that those Republicans who
were to-day left out by the party will
on Wednesday take their seats and
keep them until driven from them.
There may be something of a row at
the opening of the session. There is
some talk of an appeal to the courts
to enjoin the completion of an ad
justment.
A Pari* View ol llic War.
I Special to the Daily Times by S. & A. Line.J
New York, April 13.--A Paris
special says that the Papacy is the
pretext of the present war cloud, and
that the Prussian aggressive attitude
| caused the late conference in Venice.
Kussia, while invincible for purposes
I of defence, is not likely to ally itself
i against Germany. Russia's leading
General is of German descent and her
principal financiers are Germans.
Britain would never join a league
hostile to Prussia, because German
alliances is necessary to protect Con
stantinople and the British Indies
from Russian encroachments. Britain,
however, must fight if Belgium
menaces.

'The >ei> York llrraltl on the Prosper
five European War.
Sperial to Daily Times, by S. * A. Llue.]
New York, April 13. The Herald,
commenting on the war cloud in Eu
rope, after reviewing tho situation,
says : “If the power of Germany is to
he broken by war experiments of the
present generation,it will not he ol’ the
combination now threatened. Russia
has good reason to keep out of the
quarrel with Germany. Bismarck’s
menace to Belgium is significant.
! Great Britain guarantees Belgium’s
neutrality, and any quarrel between
Prussia and Belgium would involve
Great Britain in an expedition to
Prussia. In such an event Russia
would certainly be found on the side
of Prussia and against Great Britain.”
Tiie Herald concludes; “It is doubt
ful, however, if Germany cares for
war. All the rulers of Europe aro de
sirous of peace. The present cloud,
probably, was raised mainly for ef
fect, within Prussian limits, to silence
tin' revolutionists and anti-national
ists.

Provision* Hevlnv.
| Stimulated by the remarkable spec
ulative excitement and activity in
provisions in Chicago, tho market
here luvs also been excited, and prices
have advanced from day to day, yet
without the uceompuniineut of tho
active speculative movement which
might reasonably have boon looked
for, and certainly without any very
active order trade, which as reason
ably could not be looked for.
Tho conspicuous features of the
market tlds week have boon an ex
cited feeling, and daily advanced
prices on Urn product, uni without
the uucompuniment of an active
movement. The order trade lias been
nothing unusual, while the specula
tive change of possession of property
has been in effect very small, allow
ing one of two things cither a want
of speculative enterprise, or of confi
dence in the stability of the present
prices; both true to somo extent. In
barreled pork on order account there
was but a moderate business, and in
futures comparatively little the sales
on orders aggregating only 8,173 bar
rels, and for future deliveries 2,600.
But prices were advancing at the
rate of 25( 50c. a day, standard sell
ing Tuesday last at s2l(s 21 25, and
the week closing to-day at $22 50, es
tablishing an advance for the seven
days of $1 25 iter barrel. Not enough
was done in futures to show tlie
strength of views. In nono of tiie
product wus there much speculative
animation, except in dry salt meats,
which were in rather active and fair
speculative movement. Tho specula
tive movement in bacon was very
limited, and in lard of no considera
tion. Futures in dry salt comprised
800,000 lhs for April mid May; Wed
nesday 600,000 Ills clear rib, seller
April, at lie; Saturday 100,000 lbs
same. May, at 12c. and 106,000 lbs
Monday, for May, til 12e.
Tho spot trade in loose meats,
mostly speculative or for bacon, and
much of it up-country deliveries, was
active, comprehending about 3,500,-
000 pounds, mainly at BJo for should
ers, nil' lor clear rib sides, uml 126'
121 for clear sides, tho week closing
at "higher figures for clear rib sides,
and clear sides at. t2f" I2£e; shoulders
the same. Hacked meats were ad
vancing, but, fractionally only
through the week, shoulders selling
mainly at sJG.sje, clear rib sides at
llie, but closing at 12Je, and clear
sides at an useending scale, closing
to-day at 12le.
Bacon was in demand on orders but,
in very close supply, but from these
circumstances amt the refieetive effect,
of the advancing market for I lie other
product,, prices were upward, yet not
notably. There was some option
movement for June, including 600,000
lhs. clear rib sides at Pile, but mainly
in clear sides at, 13r,, parked shoulders
showing an advance at tho close of
the week on tho close of the previous
week of jto - sales this week Doing at
