A striking fact in connecuou niui " the difference of opinion regarding the exact nature of the malady from which he is suffering. Figaro, for instance, to day declares the symptoms disagree with the usual symptoms of kiduey dis ease. Professor Sacharj in was convinced it was cancerous and impossible to oper ate noon. Thia was his ground for re cently informing the war he could not possibly live, as the disease was incura ble. Professor I.eyden, however, was more optomistic, and, after a careful study of the symptoms of the czar's trouble expressed the belief it was true a tumor existed, but he added it was of a benign nature and curable. Figaro makes the startling statement the czar has been badly nursed, and the arrange ments for his care was quite of a primi tive nature.

The Delarneys, who operated the "public stock and pro duce exchange," secured a release on bail for a bearing this evening. At the office this morning they announced to their clients that, as their books were in the hands of the police, they would be unable to pay out money or do business except to recieve notices of the with drawal of deposits. All the discretion ary pools have a clause in their agree ments by which they can insist upon 30 days' notice of withdrawal.

Other pools are ex pected to suspend at any moment, and excitement among investors is running high. By the books of the Delaneys it is shown that over half of the investors were women, most of them domestics and washerwomen, who fancied they had found an easy road to wealth. Wholesale I'oUonlnK.
