Movement nf (If In, Kansas City, November 0. The expected car famino in tins city has every appearance of realty just now, occasioned largely by tho heavy rush of grain to the oast several weeks ago.

At that time tho roads said there was no famine and that the cutting down of tho track transit limit of forty-eight hours was done to prevent one. They all feared that it might take place, and early in the season adopted resolutions to head it olT. The situation is growing more pinched overy day, and the fact that New Orleans lines are the worst fix shows how tho grain is going. It is stated that immense quantities of grain for foreign export by way of Now Orleans have been bought, but the lines that will havo to handle it are now unable to find cars for the grain already moving. The hicngo lines lire open, and for the present, at.

least, have plenty of cars, although the Wabash, Rock Island and Santa Fe havo had and are now looking for trouble. I ho Alton ht.s kept well in hand, but the officials are iu doubt as to the length of time thoy can keep open. This line, although it handles as much freight as any competitor, does not, often get very far behind in returning its cars. The Santa Fe has had a great deal of trouble on account of tho heavy grain movement over tho line. Tho Missouri Pacific is going through the same experience.

Every possible effort is being made to get cars by the lines in trouble, but the officials got very little if any encouragement. The greatest danger is that tho port of New Orleans may becouio blockaded by the heavy grain movement toward it. Considerable grain is also going by way of Memphis, and this line could use 1.000 cars to good advantage just now. They are actually short half that number and are working hard to ease up tho situation. Former heavy shipments to Chicago now take the Now Orleans route, while Savannah and Baltimore are also in the export trade.

The indications are that while there has been a smaller amount of grain moving for some time than was expected, the next few weeks will mark tho heaviest movement ever known in this Girard and Pittsbnrg of 450.

Duu it weekly review of trade says: Improvement in business continues. It is grcator than before at the west, considerable at the sonth, and is clearly perceived even at the east. Yet the discouragement in some branches of industry is not less, but more apparent than before, evidently because calculations have been made upon a more rapid and greater increase in business than has been realized. Premature expansion in some forms of production and trade has invited the usual corrective, and disposition exists which is so general that it might easily be misrepresented. The iron industry shows the most change.

Extreme anxiety to sell pie iron and financial weakness in unexpected quarters produced the present depression, which is in curious contrast with the abounding confidence which prevails regarding the future.

Benson, who was to be hanged at this place Thursday, a respite for three months, and fixing the day for his execution on February 5.

The news came from United States Marshal Walker, at Topeka, who received it from Washington. The action of the president in the matter is believed to have been influenced by the representations of Benson's attorney and Rev. Dr. Page. They all wrote strong and touching letters, raising poiuts in the manner ot his trial, and setting forth his poor and friendless condition.

The evening newspapers comment at length upon the strained relations existing between the United States and Chili.

According to the Pall Mall Gazette there is no doubt but that much of the excitement is due to tho elections. Nobody, says the Gazette, seriously believes that President Har-rison will push matters to extremities. Neither the sympathies of other countries nor the majority of Americans will be with him. The St. James Gazette, referring to tho same, remarks that "whether President Harrison's rising indigna'ion, or Mr.

Blaine's electioneering calculations will result in war is doubtful." "The Chilians," the St. James Gazette continues, "are not now in a mood to submit to bullying. If the Americans have grievances for which they can legitimately demand redress. Chili has equal reasons to complain of the conduct of Mr. Egan.

"Possibly if the ex-secretary of the land league was recalled the difficulty between the two republics would be much more easily The Globe, touching upon the great subject, is of the opinion that it "is incredible thai the United States should go to war with hili. however much it may enjoy the prelim nary bluster." "It is ever' more incredible," the Globe continues, "that Chili should court irretrievable disaster. A weak government will also rind plenty of reason for yielding to a strong government without loss of dignity." "But there remains the question whether, if President Harrison's government pushes the quarrel to an actual declaration of war, it may not find itself taken at its word in a way both unexpected and undesired."
