Canadi in officials are responsible; they prevailed on the British Government to refuse to allow Newfoundland to make a seperate treaty. The idea of annexing Newfound land has not struck the administration favorably.

The trial of Charles E Kincaid.a news paper correspondent, for the murder of ex-Representative, Taulbee of Kentucky ntered upon its second week to-day. TRADE REVIEW II no news is good news as concerns the condition of business at this season, the outlook is fairly satisfactory. It is a season of transition and uncertainty, and every week that passes without distinctly distinct-ly untoward events brings closer the new and probable large crops of next Summer, and lessens t lie chance that in terveuing disaster, financial, industrial or commercial, may prevent the revival of all businesses. Money is in fair and increasing supply, and though still tight at Salt Lake and scarce at Jacksonville and in stronger demand at Omaha ana Milwukee, is almost everywhere easier, so that wants of legitimate business are met without trouble. The outlook for tlii coming crops continues exceptionally exceptional-ly good. Wheat rose to 1.15 on Monday, and at Ji.rsJ is still i ceuu higher than a week ago, sales here have been 6 million mil-lion bushels, and corn, with sale ol 33 million bushels, has risen 4 cents to 78J cents' while oats at 59$ cents ate le.-s than I cent higher. Wool is selling steadily, 2,618,000 lbs, at Boston, and the very large consumption consump-tion of Australian is a surprise; it seems due in part to the bad condition of many Western fletces, but in part to the fact that the home supply is nearly exhausted. ex-hausted. The Treasury has put out nearly $5,-000,000 $5,-000,000 more than it has taken in during dur-ing the past week, but part has gone abroad. The market here has been a little stronger, rates on call using from i to 3 per cent, but no such sign ol pressure appear as are usually apprehended appre-hended at this season, The stock mark ets has been exceedingly dull, but on the whole stronger, the average price of stocks being about 60 cents per share higher than a week ago. R. Dunn & Co. WASHINGTON LETTER. (From our Regular Correspondent) Washington, D. C. March 30, 1891. Mr Harrison has his demander up to as great temperament The cause was the Publication of his phlegmatic of republican re-publican papers, including the New York Pfis of a Washington special say ing that ex-Representative McKinley had determined to antagonize Harrison lor the Presidential nomination, and intimating in-timating that McKinley believed himself and not Harrison entitled to that empty honor. Mr Harrison has for quite a while been nominac on this subject. He has brought himself to believe that it is a crime lor any other member of his party to aspire to what he thinks is his own personal perquisite, and he has takes tak-es no trouble to hide this opinion from republicans that have called on him. Whether the statement made in this special is ttue I cannot say, as Mr McKinley Mc-Kinley has long been known hete, and should he, by any combination of circumstance, cir-cumstance, and the liberal expinditure of boodle contributed by the''protected" manufactures, suceed in being elected Governor ol Ohio this year. I predict that he will be cani date belore the next republican national convention, no matter who he has to antagonize. Of course if he is defeated in his fight for the governorship, which democrats hope and believe he will be, that will remove him from the Presidential field. Numerous" reports having been printed print-ed coupling the name ol John M. Lang, ton, the negro ex-Congressman with one of the new U S Circuit Court judgeships, judge-ships, I have been making a quiet investigation, inves-tigation, with a view of ascertaining wnether Mr Harrison was teally seriously serious-ly considering such an insult to the white citizens of. this country. From what 1 succeeded in learning it Is pretty sate to say that Mr Harrison is fully prepared, pre-pared, in certain contingencies, to elevate ele-vate a negro to the bench: but whether wheth-er Langton or one cf the half a dozen other negroes whose apphcaion have been fi ed is not apparent. One of the contingencies referred to is public opm-.on opm-.on and there is good reason lor believing believ-ing that some of these minors about Langton's apDointment emanated direct lyfrom the White House, and were started expressly for the purpose of (eel-ing (eel-ing the pulse of the public on the subject, sub-ject, and that Mr Harrison is very carefully care-fully studying what is said about it in the newspapers. The Treasury Official are strutting around like peacocks, because they have discovered that it will not be necessary in the payment of the fitly odd millions ot 4i, per cent bonds that will mature in September next.
