One excuse for the publication of the
costly '-r.ird Dook" is that the birds of
Pennsylvania are becoming extinct.
Not all of them; the legislative rooster is
as murh in evidence j ever.
Even lie fore any investigation is be
gun, it is said that there are Philadel
phia councilman ready to squeal. If
this l true, there should be no hesitan
cy about beginning an investigation.
General Ha.-tint.s, Secretary of the
Commonwealth Reeder and Adjutant
General Stewart went to New York on
Friday to attend a meeting of governors
called to discuss the subject of primary
military instruction in the public schools.
Nohouy seriously expects the Repub
lican party to be consistent, but it
might at least make a better pretense of
Iteing so than it is doing at present.
While it is bawling through its organs
that the recent defeat of the Democracy
was due to popular disgust with the Dem
ocratic tariff and the desire for a return
to McKinleyism it is taking precious
good care through these same organs not
to promise the ieople any return to Mc
Kinleyism. I r is announced that unless extreme
wintry conditions all over the country
create at once a general demand for rub-l-r
goods it is probable that several of
the rubber goods factories controlled by
the United States Rubber company, in
cluding the factories at New Brunswick,
N. J., employing about 1,200 hands,
will shut down indefinitely. The com
pany controls in all about eleven facto
ries, located chiefly in the eastern states,
employing more than 20,000 persons.
Nearly half of these are women.
A iEprTY United States marshal ar
rested and brought to Toledo Ohio,
Charles M. Hughes, Jr., ex-cashier of
the First National bank of Lima, on the
charge of the misappropriation of f 140,
XH) of the bank's funds on Wednesday
Hughes was released on bond for his ap.
Iearance Friday before the United States
commissioner. This is the bank in
which Senator IJrice is largely interested

and say that he is guilty only of error of
judgTwent by which he did not profit.
Ri'Kfed grouse, or pheasants, were for
merly among the most abundaut species
of game birds in this state, but as a re
sult of persistent market hunting they
have become one of the rarest. The Lu
zerne county Sportsmen's club has,
therefore, done a service to the people
o f the state in formulating a bill to pro
vide for a close period of ten years,
which will give the birds a chance to in
crease and multiply; and the legislature,
equally moved by a sense of public duty,
should be prompt to enact the needed
measure of protection.
IvEsoUTioNS endorsing President
CI eveland's message of Monday were
adopted at Washington on Wednesday
ly the national board of trade, in session
at the Shoreham hotel. A resolution
favoring the creation of a national board
for the arbitration of disputes between
employers and employes was defeated by
a vote of to 16. The president re
ceived the members of the convention
in his oihce at 1 o'clock. They called
by an appointment to present a copy of
resolutions commending his financial
message, which were adopted at their
6f&-iou that morning.
The stories of ni unci pa I extravagance
and misgovern men t in New York city
grow pale by the eide of those we heai
from Philadelphia. The cost of govern
ing that banner Republican city has ini
ereased from f S,641,000 ic 1SS5 to an
estimated outlay of $33,000,000 for the
ensuing year. Members of the council
are charged with "demanding and re
ceiving f 3;2,000 worth of stock issued
by a telephone company as the price of
passing an ordinance giving to the com
pany the streets under certain condi
tions." This charge is not made by an
opposition organ but by a leadiug re
ligious paper of Philadelphia.
Ir is certainly discouraging to those
who look for an adjustment of moneta
ry conditions, says the Pittsburg Post,
according to the recommendations of
the president. The house will probablv
report a bill based on his suggestions
within a day or two, but it will fall short
of the plans proposed by the executive
The long term bonds will be abandoned
also the payment of customs duties in
gold, and possibly the provision the
londs shall be payable in gold. Such a
bill may pass the house, but yesterday'
debate in the senate made it tolerably
clear that there is little chance for action
by that body. Senator Vest, who is a
leading member of the finance commit
tee, declared there was not the slightest
prosject of that committee agreeing on
any measure to report to the senate.
There is a bare possibility that the senate
may act independent of the committee.
Senator Vest, who is one of the strong
men on the Democratic side, created
something of a sensation by stating that
as the president had declared war on sil
ver and in favor of gold as the sole mon
ey metal, he must part company with
his, for uader no consideration would he
favor such a policy and vote to issue
bonds to secure gold to place the country
on the single gold standard. On direct
information from the secretary of the
treasury, Mr. Vest also stated that the
revenues of the government were in
creasing from day to day, and to such
an extent that there promises to be a
large surplus. The silver senators are
very determined, and the accession to
their ranks of Mr. Vest is a matter
ome importance.

It did not need the appealing message
of President Cleveland sent to con
gress yesterday, says the rhiladeU
phia Record, to acquaint the country
with the gravity of the financial situa
tion. The treasury has carried its
thousand million !ad of gold indebted
ness made imp ssib!e of mitigation by
payment to the limit of endurance.
Unless provision shall be mule by con
gress for payment of demand obligations
in gold, and for cancellation after pay
ment, the credit of the government can
no longer be maintained and an area of
panic and repudiation must ensue.
In this emergency the President ap
peals to the patriotism of the representa
tives of the people in congress for relief.
He distinctly abandons all present hope
of currency reform, and all pride of per
sonal opinion, and suggests action look
ing solely to the relief of the financial
stress that paralyzes the industry of the
country, and to the protection of the
notional credit. Urietly the President
recommends.
(1) The authorization of the issue of
50-year 3 percent. londs in denomina
tions of $20 and fSOand their multiples,
payable in gold, in older to maintain a
sufficient gold reserve, and to take up
and cancel legal tender and treasury
notes.
(2) Government bonds bearing over 2
per cent, interest should le made a legal
security for the issue of circulating notes
to national banks up to their face or par
value.
(3) National bank notes hereafter is
sued to be only of the denomination of
$ 10 and upward and silver certificates to
be hereafter issued to be of demomi na
tions under $10.
(4) Duties on imports to be hereafter
paid in gold
Every one of these recommendations
is sound to the core, and exactly fitted
to the accomplishment of the object de
sired the re establishment of popular
confidence and of national credit. For
months past ''The Hecont" has insisted
in season and out of season upon the
issue of national bank notes to the par
of bonds would prevent any swift con
traction of the currency. The issue of
silver certificates of denominations of
less than $10 would make a continued
and extended place and use for silver.
The payment of import duties in gold
would furnish the treasury at all times
with a necessary supply of the metal for
meeting its gold obligations.
If there be in congress, out of the
whole number of representatives, a ma
jority who are able to sink partisanship
long enough to perform an act ot urgent
patriotic duty involving the good faith
and pecuniary welfare of the nation,
now is the time to make it apparent.
Delay in giving necessary relief to the
treasury would be no less iufamous than
dangerous.
A dispatch from London on Wednes
day says the North German Lloyd steam
er Elbe, from Bremen, for New York
via Southampton was sunk in a collision
with the British steamer Crathie. The
Eibe carried over four hundred per
80us, 240 of whom were passengers, 160
officers and crew and a number of cattle
men who were returning to the United
States. Only about 50 people were
saved.
Nearly all the passengers were asleep
at the time, but many of them were
awakened by the shock, slight as it was.
They could hear the rush of the rapid
inflowing water, and with cries of terror
sought to make their way to the upjier
deck. The steamer being loaded by the
stern, water natura.ly rushed aft, and
this allowed many of the passengers
forward to reach the deck.
In the case of the saloon passengers,
however, the result was fatal. As they
rushed from their state rooms into the
saloon they were met by the torrent,
agaibst which it r.as impossible for them
t make headway. They were caught
up and swept aft toward the cockpit,
where they were probably drowned be
fore the ship foundered. Altogether
about 50 of the passengers reached the
deck, where the wildest confusion exist
ed. Wild rushes were made for the boats,
but yie terrible excitement prevailing
impeded the efforts of those who were
trying to clear them away. Many heart
rending scenes were witnessed between
parents and children in the few moments
preceding the sinkiug of the vessel.
There is some disagreement among
the survivors as to the number of boats
that were launched. One of these was
swamped instantly, and only one of its
occupants, a girl named Anna Boeckei,
who was bound for Southampton was
rescued.
Chairman Wilson, of the ways and
means committee, is confident that in a
very few months the revenues will be
suffcient to meet the expenditures of the
government under the operations of ex
isting laws; but he is doubtful if it will
stay the drain of gold from this country
unless the government paper is retired,
and he favors the issue of a long term
low rate bonds to meet that emergei .
Opinion is crystalizing that this is the
only thing to be done. A popular loan
meets with much favor, whereby the
postmasters can be made agents for the
sale of government notes, in denomin
ations from $10 upward, bearing 3 per
cent interest. This measure, it is claimed
will bring out the gold from the stock
ing reservoirs and savings banks. Of
the $60,000,000 and over of gold drawn
from the treasury the last two months,
one half has gone into the banks or been
stored away by individuals in safe de
posit companies and elsewhere. The
other half has been exported. There is
about $460,000,000 gold in the country.
The following bills were reported fa
vorably to the state legislature last week:
To compel attendance at public schools
and provide for a truant master; provid

Senator Jones, of Arkansas, introdu
ced his financial bill in the senate this
week just as any ordinary bill is intro
duced, although he had hoied that it
might have had the endorsement of the
finance committee liefore it was formal
ly brought tn theattention of the senate.
The bill authorizes the secretary of the
treasury to issue in his discretion bonds
at 3 pel cent., up to $."rt0,lHH,0t0; pro
vides that the tax on natioual bank cur
rency up to the par value of the bonds
deposited by them; also, for the unlimi
ted coinage of silver, the government to
retain as seigniorage the difference le
tvveen the market value of the bullion
aud the face value of the money coined.
Senator Smith, of New Jersey, also in
troduced a financial bill, which merely
provides for the isue of bonds and the
establishment of a non partisan moneta
ry commission, to investigate and rejmrt
to congress next Decemlter. There is no
apparent change in the financial silua
tion in the house, which has lately !een
looking to the senate, if not for guidance,
at least for a pointer.
Mr. W. J. Broderick, president of the
St. Louis Live Stock Exchange, is in
Washington helping others interested io
our foreign meat and cattle trade to get
that obnoxious differential sugar tariff
repeated. Mr. Broderick says not a
word a'oout diseased American cattle
would have been heard from Europe,
if that differential duty had not been
imposed, aud he added: "If it is not
repealed, we shall lose the entire trideof
continental Europe, and the producers
of beef will have to rely solely ou their
home market. That market is already
suffering with, a ruinous over supply.
It is a fine object lesson of what protee
tion will do aud shows up the leauties
of a home market perfectly. In
the mean time the cattle growers of
the west are wondering if this con
gress has any intention of legislating
I in the interests of the people." The oh
stacle to the repeal of the differential du
ty is the senate. A bill for its repeal
has beeu favorably rejiorted to the hou.-e,
and will le passed, but it will require
strong pressure from the public to get it
through the senate.
By a vote from ! to 7 the judiciary
committee of the house adopted a reso
lution censuring Judge Ricks, of Ohio,
for his methods of making up his official
accounts when he first became judge,
instead of the impeachment resolution
which the committee had first authori
zed. There will be a miuority report,
Standing out for impeachment, pre.-nt
ed to the house by Representative Bailey,
of Texas.
Senator Butler, of South Carolina is
credited with the intention of trying to
keep Senator-elect Tillman, who "is to le
his successor, out of his seat in the sen
ate, and his presentation of repetition
from Dr. Sampson Pope, late Democrat
ic candidate for governor of South Caro
lina, asking that the senate investigate
charges of fraud which he makes against
Tillman and his associates, makes it Ujuk
us tnough he were proj rly credited.
Senator Butler has always U'en popular
with his Democratic colleagues, but
most of them think he is making a se
rious mistake in supporting the request
for a congressional investigation of a
state election.
Senator Gorman, Smith and Lindsay
gave notice to the senate interstate com
merce committee, after the votes had pre
vented the adoption of several amend
ments they favored, that they would con
sent to have the railroad tooling bill fa
vorably reported to the senate, and take
their chance of getting their amend
menus adopted by vote of the senate.
Accordingly the bill has K-eu favorably
reported to the senate just as it was
passed by the house.

New York, January 2S. As Mrs.
Margaret Forties was entering her house
on East One-Hundred and Twenty eight
Street this evening, James Flower, aged
28 years, an engineer, snatched her
pocketbook and ran. He was pursued,
and, when captured swallowed a quanti
ty of prussic acid, dying shortly after

In his pockets were found two letters,
one addressed to his wife ami the other
to his mother. In the former, Flower
said that owing to his inability to obtain
employment he had decided to kill him
self. Flower looked like a man who had
not eaten anything in days, and it is
thought that in his desperation, he
snatched the pocketbook, either to pur
chase food for his family or to get jost
age stamps to mail the letters which were
found on his person. He leaves a wid

J II lire Mllilt-'a JIlMlrr.
IndianaJanuary 2S JuJge White's
bill of particulars, in the election con
test, was hardlv tiled before the attorneys
of John P. Blair "cabbaged" it and hied
it to D. K. Taylor's olfice. where an ex
amination was straightway began.
White's bill tretaly exceeds Blair's in
the number of names of alleged illegal
votes, there Iteing over 1,000 iu it, a.
opposed to some 700 in Blair's.
Blair's attorneys will work hard get
ting evidence together to refute White's
charges. It is thought the Blair people
will consume alntut two weeks more iu
examining their witness, aud in that
time they will have secured much to of
fer against the claims of the respond
ents.
In detail. White's bill claims that
Blair got illegal votes, as follows: lhir-ty-Iive
non residents; 2 45 non registered
voters: 500 who didn't pay taxes; 7 un
der age; a large number whose ballots
were inqterfectly marked, aud about 500
who gave' or received briltes. Among
those sjteeilied as not registered appears
the name of J. A. 0. Ruffner, Esq., oue
of Blair's i-ouosel. Ruffner considers
this a great horse on him.
Some ugly feeling is Iteing worked up,
and liefore the contest is over many
hitherto good friends will lie at logger
heads with a vengeauce. Court will
convene again to-morrow morning, at
o'clock, and there are rumors in the air
of a sensation to be sprung.
Metal Railroad Ties.
Washington, January 28. A protest
against the denudation of forests in or
order to secure material for railroad ties
is made in a report issued by the agri
cultural department onthe uge of metal
railroad ties and preservative processes,
and metal tin plates for wooden ties. It
shows that about 20 K-rcent of the rail
road mileage of the world outside the
United States and Canada is laid ou
metal.
Although progre-s in this direction
in our country has been slow, the report
says by the waning of forest supplies,
and as the railroad companies began
more and more to assume a jiermaneut
and less speculative character, it can lie
a question of only a short time when
this saving of forest supplies will lie
forced upon them, insuring greater ef
ficiency and final economy. Through
out the world it is shown metal ties have
lieen successfully applied and are in suc
cessful use under all conditions of
climate, traffic anil track.
Death via freurli Veteran.
Francois Canrobert, Marshal of
France, died in Paris yesterday. He
was born in the Department of Lot, June
7, lxt'.i. He entered the military school
of St. Cyr, in 1826, and later enlisted as
private soldier, He served many
years in Africa, and was wounded in the

The Dog Tame Ashore.
ISenton Harbor, Michigan., January
28 When the steamer Chicora went
out of St. Joseph on its last trip there
was a dog altoard. On Tuesday night
the dog was heard whining at the door
of Solon Cutler, who conducts the road
house at Pottowatomie Park. He was
covered with ice. Mr. Cutler connected
the visit of the dog, which had evident
ly just come out of the cold water, with
the loss of the Chicora and brought him
to this city yesterday.
The return of the dog indicates that
the Chicora was within half a mile of
the east shore on Tuesday evening, the
second night out. The dog, it is lie
iieved, could not swim more than one
qaarter mile. The place where the dog
came ashore. Pottowatomie Park, is
eight miles north of here, a lake side
summer resort. Many are inclined to
think the vessel must have sunk not far
from that place.
A flout on an Ire Floe.
Leamington, Ontario January 27,
In the storm on Friday night four men
Mat Wigle, A. Wilkinson, C. Cullen
and M. Heckwith while at work cut
ting ice on Lake Erie, were carried out
in the lake. The ice on which they
stood, with a team of horses, suddenly
cracked, and the wind rapidly blew it
out toward mid lake. The floe crack- d
aud huge pieces broke off until only
enough for the men aud horses to stand
on was left.
Then three men volunteered to man
a small boat and put off. After three
hours' hard work they reached the floe
and took off the men, but had to leave
the horses. In a few minutes the ice
broke up and the horses were drowned.

Heavy Raying Against Puts by Several
Dealers Sate a l'auic Corn loe Down
to t i 1-3 May Turk Ilrupi to J.77 1-2 a

Chicaoo, Jan. 30. Board of trade
markets have been excited and have
made a sensational decline, affected by
heavy selling under the influence of the
gold exports scare aud the strained
financial conditions. Cash wheat went
below all former records, and was
worth only 49 cents a bushel.
The market to very shaky and a
panicky feeling prevailed all around.
There was every indication that a big
crash was in prospect. bu this was pre
vented by a lucky chance which shored
the market aud doubtless saved several
firms on the board from throwing up
the sponge.
When 52 cents for May bad been
reached. Charley Smith, seing a chance
ou the 1.500.000 of pnts which he pos
sessed, began to buy against them heav
ily. Others who were in the same boat
did likewise, and this heavy buying had
the effect of staying the market and re
storing it to a feeling of strength.
Under this influence the market rallied
aud danger seemed temporarily averted.
In sympathy with May wheat. May
corn broke aud tumbled headlong. The
usually quiet neighborhoixl of the corn
pit became excited aud the lungs of the
corn men, which for a long time had not
had any particular exercise, were
brought into play. May opened at 44
and at once broke to 44. It finally fell
to 42:a, but rallied later with wheat.
Provisions also came in for their share
of ths decline. May pork reached
$9.772, or a decline of bO cents a barrel
in less than two hours It rallied again
on heavy buying orders. Foreign (Train
markets acted in sympathy with Chicago
and fell off a few points.
