THE KENTUCKY FIGHT.
Frankfort, Ky., April 15. The gold
democrats held no caucus today and
the program for the senatorial ballot
Is now the same as for the past few
days. Hunter's chief lieutenant said to an
Associated Press representative today
that they had no Idea, of ever with
drawing their candidate, but that he
might do so if it were required by the
administration. They admitted, hw
over, that th-y had good reasons for
believing that no swh rwpMMt or sug-
gmtlon will ever come.
Blackburn's force are confident that
the deadlock will last If Hunter re
mains tn the track, s the gold nvn
are practically committed to never vote
for him, and the BlaHtburn men will
go ao far as to lend him encourage
ment rather than see him quit the track
and ruin their plans for no election
until next winter.
WOOL FIRM.
Domestic Markets Weak, but Foreign
Purchases Very Heavy.
B-srton, April 15. The AmericanWoo!
and Cotton Reporter will say tomor
row of the wool market:
There haa been a notable decrease
In activity the past week, accompanied
In aome cases by higher quotations.
The prominent feature of the market
is that many d eaters report very little
wool which they can offer for sale.
The tatsened activity la due partly to
this fact and partly to the fact thai
the manufacturers have been reduced
to a state or great uncertainty by the
conflicting news from Washington, and
are conaeijuently anting In a very con
servative manner aa regards their en
largements of raw material. The most
striking feature haa been the great
activity of wool in foreign markets as
compared with domestic, "4 per cent
of the oxal eaten tn Boston for the
week being foreign wool. The Imports
of wool the past, week have been enor
mous, amounting to 18.000.000 pounds.
Prices are extremely firm la all kinds
of wool.

escaped from the fury. of the storm by
throwing out oil bags, which moderat

about her. On the following day tha
wind moderated, but .there was no sign
of the Samaria. Much wreckage waa
