TALK OF ALGER'S RETIREMENT.
More Ground for It Now Thau Previously
The Ohio Klection.
Washington, March --There Is
more ground now for crediting the re
ports of Secretary Alger's retirement
from the Cabinet than at any prior
time, but the signs Indicate that the
event peed not be looked for imme
diately. The President is now get
ting some advice on the subject from
n.Kra thpre will be a governor

t- ,ia nrivlserB Is that In a State
-where even a little scandal goes so far
the Democrats can
make terribly effective use of the cry of
"bad beer ror me boiuic.o. " "," '
therefore, as if Alger would find tm-
., r.,-ivnte business demanding
his attention" about the time the Ohio
campaign begins, and will draw out
without any sensational performances
1 or any outward appearance of being
kicked out.
r.f Representative Lentl,

Pioui our Kegular Correspondent.
Washington, March 27, 1899.
The Bryan-Belmont correspondence
has naturally liten the principle topic
of conversation amuni Democrats
since it was made public. All sorts of
opinions are expressed concerning its
effect upon the party in next year's
campaign, but the general tendency
is that Col. liryan only did what any
other man of spirits would have done,
in striking back at those who have
been hitting at him for months, and
that the fight which the correspond
ence lias precipitated had to come
anyway and that it is better to have
it now than next year. It is an open
secret that the element of the party
represented by Mr. Belmont, which
bolted the regular party plattorm and
ticket in 96, has been working to
down Col. Bryan and to get control
of the next National Convention of
the parly. Col. Bryan's friends have
contended that men who bolted in '96
and who openlv threatened to bolt
again in 1900, if the same platform is
adopted, have no right in reason to
dictate to the Democratic party ; that
these tule or ruin men have not a sin
gle electoral vote that they can prom
ise with a reasonable degree ot cer
tainty, even if they were allowed to
dictate both candidate and platform,
and conseepjently that their defection
will not reduce the electoral vote 01
the Democratic party by a single vote;
also that the party in every state that
went Democratic in 96 is overwhelm
ing in favor of a new readoption of
the principle planks of the Chicago
platform, next year. The discussion
of this correspondence will have a
tendency to show whether these claims
are correct or not ; also to cause the
rank and file of the party to make
sure that they are properly represent
ed in the next National convention.
A movement has already been started
to make every delegate admitted to
that convention pledge himsell to sup
port the ticket nominated and the
platform adopted.
straightforward report as the evidence
calls for and to get some word juggling
done than can be made to mean any
thing or nothing, according to the
wishes ol the reader; but tn-'ie a.e
men on that Comt who are not in the
habit of suppressing their conscien
tious opinions."
Another blessing of annexation has
just been officially uncovered. When
it was stated in Congress that the
annexation of the sugar producing
island would mean a speedy end ot
the sugar industry in the U. a. the
rabid annexationist hooted at the
idea. Now, an agent of the Agricul
tural Department, sent to Torto Ktco
to carefully investigate the subject,
makes an oflicial report saying mai
the sugar industry in the U. S is
doomed, if Porto Kico, L-uua ana uic
Philippines are allowed to send
us their sugar free ot uuty. ne says
the same grade of sugar that costs j
cenls a pound to produce in the U. S.
costs but 2 cents a pound to promu.e
in those islands. This will be a hard
nut for the next Congress to crack.
Dun's Review-
When thev have no power to be
otherwise, Republicans are always fair.
A case in point is the distribution 01
the Senate patronage. When tne
Republicans were in the minority
thev thought the plan of dividing the
patronage of the benate among demo
crats, Republicans and Populists, in
proportion to the strength ot each in
Senate, as just right, as it unquestion
ably was. But now, having a majority
of the Senate, they have undergone a
change of mind and are advocating a
chance that will give H em entire con-
trol of the Senate patronage, ana witn
out waiting for a change to be form
ally adonted Democratic employes are
iipinir dismissed to make claces for
o
Republicans.
There are some men in the Alger
party, now on the way to Cuba, that
are ashamed of being with him, 01
else he has some along that he is
ashamed of, as particular pains were
taken to prevent a compleielist of the
eight or ten men getting puoiisneu
Dun's Weekly Review of Trade has
the following to say:
"In business, this year cannoi be
compared with any other. It can be
said that payments through the prin
cipal clearing houses for the past week
have been 57.4 per cent, greater than
in 1892, and 45.9 per cent, greater
rh:.n in 1 808. but that exaggerates the
cam in some branches ot uusinesn.wmie
in others it talis lar snori 01 mc Sa..
Thus the February exports of manu
factured products have about douDieu
since 1892. Omitting inc
clearin ;s, where speculation in siocks
is most active, payments througn me
other principal clearing houses for the
same week show increase of 37. 6 per
cent, over 1892, and 27.1 per cent,
over last year. But without regard to
such details all realize that the volume
of business in fll branches is the
greatest ever known. Such perform
ances as the rise in Sugar on 1 htirs
day from $141 to $i7 and its paction
to $151 within an hour have not much
to do with real business, but show ut
inflammable state of public feeling,
i.-, mimc of railroads for the first
week of March show an increase of
onlv 1.1 Per cent, over last year, and
7.2 percent, over 1092. hc i.ib-

New York, March 29,-Treasurer Ku

Dinner Committee Issuod an ultimatum
yesterday, declaring that he would no

trying to change the proposed Jeffer

There Is no telling now Just what

has been made, ana me ut-Bi n.c
can hote for Is that too many of the
supporters of the Idea of making the
dinner a sliver dinner will not with
draw. If the committee wanted to
change the name of the dinner It
should have done so sooner. It was
wrong to do so at this late date. The
newly chosen name does not express
the Idea which prompted the organisers
of the dinner in their first endeavor.
The public has been led to believe that
the dinner was to be a nryan hilh,
and manv nprnons have sent subscrip
tions and purchased tickets for such
a dinner. I now have on hand a sum
of money approximating $1,000,
"Nine out of every ten of the persons
who have sent me money lor the din
ner have done so on the understanding
that It was to be a stiver dinner, with
Pryan present. I cannot tell whether
or not Col. Bryan will attend now that
the name has been changed, but I will
certainly make an effort to send all
this money back If the committee
should ever pass any resolution to
signify a change of opinion as to the
Chicago platform. j

WashinEton, March 29.-One of the
reforms which some of the honest pen
sioners of the government will try 10
press upon the next Congress is a law
regarding pension attorneys, compell
ing them to Include In their Hrst claims
whatever their clients are entitled to,
Instead of nursing and pettifogging the
various demands bo a to string them
out and collect several fees Instead of
one The present practice of the sny
eters is to put In first a claim under the
dependent act or iu. a""
fee then to make a claim for the low
est" pension to which the client is en
titled under the particular classifica
tion within which his case falls, and
collect a second fee; and then to apply
for an increase under tha classification
and collect a third fee. The result of
this is to heap a great quantity of
needless work upon the Pension Office,
and thereby clog machinery wh ch
Should be employed In grinding out the

He was arrested ana taKen to i"
Church street police station, mere
the police found In his pockets start
that he had made his
particular style of robbery exceedingly
profitable.
Checks ranging from $6 to $500, prom
issory notes and a huge bundle of let
ters recently mailed In this city and
which had not been opened were found
In his pockets. The letters were ad
dresed to firms In every part of the
country. There were seventeen pawn
tickets Inside a notebook he carried.
Tho nriRoni-r crave his name as Carol
Abeles, 26 years old, living at No. 126
East Tenth street. He said he was a
Hungarian of good family. An Aus
trian passport was in his possession. ,
The detectives worked for several ;
hours with Abeles, and finally got a
confession from him. He said he had
been robbing mall boxes for three
weeks, and had been taught how to
purloin letters by a friend.
His method and the sort of wire in
struments he used In drawing the let
ters through the drop near the top of
the mall boxes the police, last mgni,
refused to dlsrlose. They said they
had no wish to enlighten other thieves
on the subject of robbing mall boxes.
Aboles's system evidently was a good
one, for he said that all of the plunder
found In his possession last night, ex
cept the promissory notes, was the i -suit
of one day's work.
Tho police say that fither Abeles is
a scapegoat for some one else or Is one
of the cleverest criminals they have
come across In a long time.. Many de
tectives wont to look at him in the po
lice station Inst night, but no one rec
ognized him.
Inquiries will be made In Vienna and
through Hungary if the police fall to
find anything concerning his antece
dents in this city. They think he Is
too clever a thief to have been at work
only three weeks.
A photograph of a young and hand
some woman was found In Abele's in
Blde waistcoat pocket. "Next my
heart" ho said, with a faint smile, as
the detectives took It from him. The
photograph wus taken in Vienna.
In the prisoner's notebook opposite
the pawn tickets was written what the
police say Is Abolos's motto and rule
of conduct, it renns:
"Ood helps those that help themselves."
