Thk Pxrks county Itepuhlieans on Monday started the hall for I iovernor hy giving tieneral Hastings the delegates from that county, (uneral Hastings also has a sure thing on the delegates from Camhria at present, hut what if tjuay should change his mind. Isaac (i. (Iohd-is, ex-chief justice of the supreme court of Pennsylvania, died at his residence in l.rookvilleon Monday after a, lonij and painful illness. His funeral took place on Wednesday after noon at-t o'clock, the interment leing made in the cemetery there. He was 7.'? years of age. According to a statement just issued by the treasury department the money of the world foots up 10,2;0,00,0HI. ( f course this is largely guesswork, hut based on the most reliable data obtaina ble. Of this grand total the United States has 1,K I.OtH-.OOO, or J:M for every man, woman and child in the country. Thk Industrial Council, composed of delegates from all organized labor Inxlies in Kansas City, Mo., and Kansas City, Kan., representing l",miO men, lias de clared a boycott against all products turned out from the Armour establish ments. This is a result of the strike of 4.0 butchers of the Armour packing house, who quit work rather than accept a 10 percent reduction in wages. Thk second shipment of (.iovernment gold from the San Francisco mint to the sub-treasury in New York City was de livered on Monday morning by Wells, Fargo A Co. The gold was in fifty boxes. Each 1kx contained $10,000, making theamount of the transfer Sr-,NNi,imO. The gold left San Francisco last Monday. It was a special express car, wincti was shifted from one train to another at dif ferent points on the route. Armed guards rode in the car. Pcn's mercantile agency, in review of trade for the pa.-t week, notes encourag ing symtoins on every hand. "Money markets throughout the country are more healthy," the report says, "failures tlinunisheil in number and resumption by a number of banks and other etab lishments illustrates the general tenden cy toward a revival of confidence.' Another significant fact noted is that the premium on currency has U en r duced alimst to nothing. Thk otl'icial comparative statement of the receipts aud ex jienditures of the Uni ted States, issued in detail from th Treasury I epartment, show that the re ceipts for August were 7,0tHi,tKH.) less than for July, while the exjK-nditure were $',lH.0H less. The expenditures for the two months of the present fiscal year exceeded the receipts i 17,0t,000. This excess had to le drawn from the treasury available cash which was re duced of course, just tiiat amount, or at the rate of iS,.")(K),(KHt jt month. Ukkmasy s first ambassador to the United States, I.aron Von Saurma Jeltsch, presented his credentials to the President on Monday, ami the customa ry Feeehes of mutual good will were exchanged. The ambassador accom panied by the secretary of the German embassy, Itaron Kettler, called on Secre tary Gresham at the slate department and the three with Assistant Secretary A dee went to the White House together. The two diplomatists were resplendent with gold lace and carried swords. On Wednesday last the cash in the U. S. Treasury was turned over by Mr. Ne U ker, the late Treasurer, to P. X. Mor gan, his lenioeratic successor. The amount was $740,S17,4U,78j. It took sixty expert counters and laborers, at constant work, from the, 31st of May to the 2Mth of August to count and weigh this vast sum. Not one cent was miss ing. Several bags containing silver lias rotted and were found to lesome dollars short, but the missing dollars were af terwards found on the lloor of the vault. Tne total weight of the coin wan 5000 tons. Whkn we cease our compulsory pur chases, says the New York Herald, the confidence in our currency w ill i re stored, for noUxly ijiiestioiiK our ability lo maintain the parity of the silver cur rency already in existence, provided we repeal the Kherinan law and stop increas ing it. In fact we shall then be in a more i(jdeeiideut xisition than any of the nations with which we have lieen in conference. England has always lieen the great stumbling block in the way of an international agreement, but ;s now getting into an embarrassing position with her Indian exchanges and might be found much more complaisant if the lirusHeid Conference were to reconvene I .iii October. I - - i The success of General Hastings in the Republican primaries of Ilerks coun ty, says the Harrisburg litiil. has F en heraled by some of the heated Hastings advocates as an end to the likelihood of General Grcgsj's nomination for Gov ernor next year. A casual examination of the situation will t-how the faultiness of this hope. Senator tjiiay does not want to see General Hastings nominated but still less docs he want General Gregg to lie the candidate. To keep Gregg's home delegates from favoring Gregg was the purpose of Quay's lieutenants and this eould only ! safely done by making Hastings the issue. Now that Greirg's guns have leen silenced at bis own home the 4u:iy liojie is that Gregg will surrender. To kill off Hastings will le the work of the tjuay guards now. Hastings is ambitious, more or less conceited and quite pnpi'lar. He is at that dangerous age when if eleeted governor he might set up for himself instead of taking or ders. Mr. tjti-iy dws not want him for governor. He wants a candidate next year, just as he wanted the same kind four years U-fore, whom be can own. He dix-s not mean to have Hastings killed off at one stroke. tjiiny is less daring than be used to le, his courage now often melting away to genuine cowardice.- Itut he is no less danger ems ami no less hateful of opin-nts than he used to be. His inclinations to stab in secret have developed if his desire to light in ojien field has weakened. The knife is to Ik; used for Hastings, not the gun. Put in killing off Hastings the senator may find himself with a living Gregg on his hands. General Gregg, regardless of the Jlerks county manipulation like ly to le one of the liveliest of KepublN can candidates for governor next year. There are no lietter men in official life in this state to-day than General Gregg. He was not raised up by a Imss, nor can one put him down if he shakes his gray head and says Nay. By so much as it is easier to go downstairs than lo go up, says the Phila delphia .Vw. it is easier to reduce tax ation than to increase it. Pennsylvania has a tax system which brings in more revenue than is needed for projer ex penditure. This is bad liuam iering. It is a serious mistake to take more money from the jKH'kets of taxpayers than is re quired for economical administration. It leads to excessive appropriations: un necessary increase of official emolu ments; doubtful experiments; and it con stitutes a continuing temptation to cor rupt practices. The public debt of Pennsylvania is now so small that it is nearly provided for by the sinking fund, and will soon be extinguished. The state is thus deprived of that excellent means of diminishing an inconvenient surplus afforded by the opportunity to pay debt with it. For some years past, instead of cutting away excessive taxes and seizing the opportun ity to simplify and improve our tax sys tem, the legislature has contented itself by turning a part of the surplus cash into the public school fund. As an ex pedient this is, jierhaps, well enough. The money paid for the support of the schools is not wasted. Hut there is waste, and worse than waste, involved in taking money unnecessarily from the people, no matter in what shape it mav be paid back. An oversowing treasury is a public danger. The -tcuple should be warned by past experience of the folly of keeping great sums of money piled up, out of the reach of its true owner ship, and subjected to risks against which there is no pissiiility of statutory insurance. The state taxes are fairly and properly laid, and, no doubt, the burden is very equitably distributed ; but every dollar collected in notorious excess of require ment is in the nature of an abuse of trust. There are several sources of state taxation which should le turned over to the counties or aliolished altogether. II eduction, in some form, has lieeome a necessity. It will soon become an issue. Com mission f:k LoriiKKX, of the Pen sion Hureau, has issued an order modi fying the practice of the office as to sus pensions of pensions. Hereafter there will be no suspensions, except in cases where the record shows on its face that the soldier was not entitled to any ten sion. It is believed that the number who will come under this class will lie very small. Under this order pension ers whose allowances are supposed to lie too high will lie reduced, tending inves tigation. In speaking of this new order Commissioner I.ochrcn said: "The sec retary of the interior has for some time questioned the fairness of the old prac tice of the Pension Hureau which sus jiended business during inquiry as to the right of the xusioner to the pension rate he was receiving. At his request the whole matter has lieen carefully con sidered, and the present order mollifying that practice, so as not to snsi-end in doubtful cases, has been agreenl to as more equitable." The Kepubl icans, who deem Prohibi tion the most imiortant olitical ques tion Ik -fore the people of Iowa, held a state convention at les Moines, on Wed nesday and parted company with the regular Republican organization for the remainder of this campaign by nominat ing a candidate for governor ar.d repudi ating the liquor .lank adopted at the ugust convention. The convention nominated L. S. Collin for governor by acclamation. The nominee for governor has lieen prominentia the Republican party for many years. He served three terms on the board of railroad commis sioners aud has lieen identified with the movement in favor of the safety appa ratus for trains.

He probably never dreamed, when he was having those troublesome lit th extracted and their ulcerated roots out out, two months ago. that it would by and by glow into an operation in w hich the greater p. u ti n of his jawlmne would, in tin- mind of the sensational w riter, have In !MMt away in order to remove the terrible ean eeroiis growth. In short, it was but another version of the familiar old st'-rv of the 1 1 -i it who vomited three black crows. President Ci veland is not sick, and lie has not leen sick since he left Washington. In fact, there were few dns while he was a way that be did not M-rform some of his public du ties, as the records in the otlioe of bis private sec retary will show. The passage .f the bill b-r the uncon ditional reM-al of the purchasing clause of the Sherman silver law by the Hus has fiM-USsed public attention ll!ll tbe Senato, where financial speii hes are now the order of the day. How long the Senate will talk In-fore voting is a ques tion that will lc answered differently by nine out of ten men in Washington. Two weeks is the shortest time given by anyone, and the longest goes away up in the months. An agreement of some sort will have to be reached before a vote can In- taken, ami the silver Senators de clare they will make no agreement, un less the Yorhei-s bill, which has l-en re ported as a substitute for the Wilson bill that was passed by the House, is amend ed in a manner satisfactory to them. The 1 Vinooratic leaders, however, are confident that an agreement will shortly le reached. Procrastination may Le the thief of time, as the old school adage says, but it isn't getting a chance to steal much of it from the House Wavs and Means committee, which has buckled right down to the tar.ff question with the de termination to report a reform tariff bill at th' extra session, or very early in the regular session. W hile the committee is not disposed to encourage long drawn out hearings of every Tom, I Mi k and Harry w ho mav think themselves tariff experts. It will grant projier hearings to all parties who by reason of their prominence in hues of business that may In affected by a change in the lai iff have a reasonable right to be heard. Tin bearings will begin Monday and end September 'O. Speaker ( 'lisp did a very unusual al though not unprecedented thing when he called Representative Richardson, of Tennesee, to the Sjx-aker's chair and descended to the lloor of the House to reply to the unjust and uiica!lcI f.,r at tack which ex-Speaker Reed made uhui the new rules of tin- House. Mr. Reed was surprised, and In-fore the Speaker got through disgiisled to find himself justly held up to the scorn of the House and the country br having falsely claimed that the new rules were in the line of the notorious rules with which he gagged the House of the l'fty til.-t Congress. It is not the first time that Mr. Crisp has proven himself more than a match for the Maine l!iisteier. and it will not be the last. The d if b-l el ice be tlV'een the n w rules of the ,,iise and the notorious Reed i tiles, is precisely that (etweeii the government of the United Stabs and the government of Russia the new rtl!i-s put tin- authority for shut ting otf di bate in the ban.

It is queer how smile things work. It is now said that 'ol. Charles P.

The ex-Chinese minister, who was ac companied by Secretary Gresham. pre sented his letter of recall, w hich was in Chinese. The President smiled as he glanced at it, and handed it back, and then the formal speeches were exchanged with the aid of an interpreter. Dr. Hryant, who is the guest of the President, tells everylo!y he sees that Mr. Cleveland is perfectly well. Ir.

When Farmer Jacob Christmau went to a past ure field yesterday he was astonished at the antics of bis large drove of cows. They were all staggering iiUiut like so many drunken men. They bellowed, their heads and tails in the air and acted like circus horses puincing to the time of a brass band. It was the worst lot of jig stejis the farmer had ever seen. The cows were intoxicated, but how they came to lie so was a mystery until A. K. Evans, a veterinary surgeon, was called. He found that the cattle had broken into a corntield and the green corn they had eaten ferment .il in their stomachs, causing intoxication. 1'lauts Resuming t tiarristiirg. Hakimm! i;;, Sept. '..
