A i:i 1 1. has Iwn passptl in the house at Washington providing that pensions f-h i!l I t- fo-wanlet! by registered letter to the leuetieiarks. Mr. Jonk? of Virginia offered in the house at Washington on Monday a bill appropriating f"(KK) for Ihe erection of a monument to the memory of James Monroe, the author of tiie Monroe doc trine, at Fredericksburg, Va. A rraz-nl elephant, killed her keeper, esca'il from her quarters, charged up and down the s!reeis and alleys Vet?t side Chietgo, on Wednesday afternoon, and although escorted in her wander ings by a small army of policemen, was not captured uutil late at night. The house committee on elections of president and vice president on Monday retried favorably the bill introduced by Mr. Corliss, of Michigan, providing for the election of senators by a direct vole of the j'ople. Some amendments of minor importance were adopted. The final formalities for the release of John Waller, formerly American consul in Madagascar, who was sentenced to 20 years" imprisonment for conveying in formation to the Hovas regarding the F etich, were completed on Saturday and Waller is now free. A dispatch from Paris to the Ixindon Time, says that France and America have agreed as a condition of Waller's liberation that there shall be no demand for compen sation. A Msi'.tivH from Barcelona, Spain, says: An immense anti-American dem-on.-tration t ok place there on Sunday at which ii.tXHJ persons participated. The crowd formed in procession and marched to the French Consulate, where they gave rereatad cheers for captain- tieneral Weyler and for Cuba. The Municipal band headed the proces sion and played the national march. The I'uitcd States Consulate was guard ed by police, and was not visited by the crowd. Miss Kitty E. Smith has filed a very unusual kind of claim against the es tate of Alfred J. Hill, who died last June and whose estate is now undergo ing probate in St. Paul, Minnesota. Miss Smith was the fiancee of Hill, and bas-s her claim on that fact, demand ing $ J(H for expenses incurred in prepar ations for marriage, 100 for resigning her position tefore marriage, and $2,0tK) 8aid to have lieen promised her by Hill in consideration of her marriage. The estate is valued at $ij5,000. While two painters were at work, fceventy-five feet from the ground, on the spire of the Baptist church in the little town of tJrand, Oklahoma Territo ry, a thunder storm sprung up aud a Hash of lightning struck the spire knock ing away the scaffoling, splitting the spire, and leaving Smers and Ford pinned to the roof dead. Their cloth ing was ignited, and for ten minutes the lodies were seen burning in mid air. Heavy rain finally- extinguished the flumes, and three hours later the re mains were brought from the steeple, charted and almost unrecognizable. By a majority the supreme court of the United States has decided that per sons subpu naed to testify as to viola tions of the Inter-State Commerce law, esixt-ially in the matter of the payment of illegal rebates on freight to favored shippers, must give their evidence or be in contempt of court. The case at bar came on appeal in habeas corpus pro ceedings from the circuit court for the Western district of Pennsylvania, the parties of record being Theodore F. r.rowti aud John W. Walker. Marshal for that district. Brown was the audi tor of the Allegheny Railroad, and was-subpu-naed to appear before the grand jury and testify as to the payment of re bates to the Union Coal Company, or to the transjHjttU ion for that company of coal at less than tariff rates in 1S94 5. IJrown declined to answer on the ground that to do so would tend to accuse and incriminate himself, and pleaded his constitutional prerogative in that behalf. The judge of the district court held that that he must answer, and slid refusing to do so, he was adjudged to be iu con tempt and committed to the custody of the Marshal until he did answer and paid a fine of $.". He appealed to the circuit court for relief on a writ of ha leas corpus, but that court declined to discharge him. Thereupon he appealed to the supreme court of the United States. The case was argued in January last. Mr. Justice Brown delivered the opinion of the court. Justices Field, (Jray, Shiras, and White dissented, Field in a separate opinion, and the others uniting in une prepared by Mr. Justice jShiras. Is 1SSS the money pi ink of the Dem ocratic and Republican national plat form?, says the New York Smi, illustra ted the extremes of simplicity. The Republicans favored the "use of both gold and silver as money," the Demo easts didn't mention the subject. In however, both pirties took into their hands the Primer of Flapdoodle, and declard for '-the use of both gold and silver as standard money." Wo quote this phrase from both platforms, and nothing more need ! quoted, as the amplifications which follow in both cases were precisely identical in mean ing, if not in words. The Hon. Will iam McKinley's plank, put forward at the late Ohio convention, is perhaps a shade more explicit in the direction of this popular delusion. It wants a cur rency of "gold, silver, and paper" with which "to measure our exchange," but it demands "gold and silver as standard money." Can this le the actual basis of the McKinley boom? For any party whose chief aim in the coming national campaign is to carry the election, two objections to this financial plmk are more pronounced than others. The first is that it is non sense. N party with its head cool, favors gold and silver as standard mon ey, for the reason that the double stand ard is impossible and unknown. It has been written down in legislation, but it never works, because it can't. The standard sticks to one or the other. It has stuck fast to gold in the United States for more than sixty years. In the easy vernacular of the day, the talk alout gold and silver as standard mon ey may catch gudgeons, but it cuts no ice. While we have to day the largest volume of silver currency, by hundreds of millions, ever on the Federal books, all the same, the monetary standard is gold. The second objection to the "gold and silver standard" plank is that it has leen used by the free silverites on both sides of the fence, by the Democrat Hardin of Kentucky, and the Republican Teller of Colorado, as the basis of continued struggle for free silver coiuage. A de fensible plank for use in these later stages of enlightenment must be superi or to the effrontery even of these states men. Anything that they can adapt to their purpose is manifestly too hazy to protect all forms of industry from the ruinous uncertainty as to the money standard that follows their agitation. There can be but one standard money, and at present gold is the one. Everything indicates, says the New York Mercury, that Democratic delegates will go to the convention from each state free and uutrammelcd. There will be no bosses to traflic in their votes. They will go there at liber ty to cast their votes on the first ballot, as well as on the successive ones, for the leader they deem best qualified to head the Democratic hosts. There may be preferences in some states for "favorite sons" but this pre ference will in each case be spontaneous and genuine. It will at all times be subject to the superior judgment of the entire party. The convention will represent the sound common sense of the party. It will be actuated by the sole desire to se lect the strongest candidate. All this will form a striking contrast to the condition of the Republican party. Take this state for instance. The great Empire State will send Repub lican delegates to the St. Louis conven tion who will be bound hand and foot to vote for Governor Morton. But this is not the worst. Tne delegates will be selected on the understanding that they shall be pliant and obedient. They will be expected to vote for any and all can didates whom Mr. Piatt may designate. The delegates are to be mentally his projerty from the start; that is, from the hour that they are designated at the state convention here. The conviction is even general that Piatt has no expectation of securing the nomination of Governor Morton, nor has any intention of conductiug the election of delegates to the state conven tion in such manner as will allow the party in this eity to express its prefer ences fairly and independently. In Pennsylvania and other states the political bosses are pursuing Piatt's tactics. They have no notion of per mitting the Republican masses to select McKiuley, Allison or Davis cVIegates, as the case may be. The people, in their mind, are of no account. Their chief use, in the opinion of the bosses, is to carry out their pernicious, selfish deals at the polls in November. It is not probable that the secret meeting which was held at Washington several days ago for the purpose of giv ing a committee of Republican manu facturers from Pennsylvania an oppor tunity of trying to make a deal with the Republican silver senators whorefused to support the house tariff bill, will result in an independent political party with silver and prelection for its foundation. But the refusal of the Republican silver senators to enter any deal that will al low protection legislation either during this or the next congress, unless it be coupled with the free coinage of silver, was very significant. It indicates that the straddle proposed by Mckinley will not be accepted by the silver Republi cans at the national convention, and that means a split and the refusal of the silver Republicans to support the St. Louis ticket and platform, for that con vention is sure to be dominated by the anti-silver Republicans. All of which is cheering to Democrats. The largest contribution ever made to the conscience fund of the treasury de partment was received by Secretary Car lisle. It amounted to f 14,225,15, and came from an unknown person in Eng land, through the American consul gen eral and Rev. Prebendary Banff, of London. The amotuat was forwarded by bill of exchange and is several thous ands in excess of any previous contribu- I tion. Ma;ii:i:oti Letter. Wss.shinuton, D C.M.mh Jl.lSI'o.

Sent r Vilas, who became familiar with the subject while he was secretary of the interior, also defended the policy adopted by Secretary Smith. If the Republicans of the house were not made ashamed of themselvi s by rep resentative McCreary's speech against the adoption cf the resolutions censur ing Ambassador Biyard, which he de clared were "prompted by prejudice and partisanship," they are not constituted as other men are. Of course Mr. Mc Creary had no idea of preventing the ac tion which he knew hat) been fully de termined upon before the resolutions were reported to the house, but he had the satisfaction of showing the action up in all its littleness and narrowness The Cuban resolutions are just where they were a week ago. The attempt to have them returned to conference in or der that objections raised by Senators Hill, Hawicy and others might be met by changing them was defeated at this week's meeting of the senate committee on foreign relations. President Cleveland celebrated his fifty-ninth birthday o l Wednesday, the ISth inst. Ex-Goveruor Campbell, of Ohio, who has been in Washington for several days, puts a positive end to talk about his be ing the presidential candidate of the party by doc 1 iring that lie w ill under no circumstances allow his name to go be fore the Chicago convention. He thus added force to the advice he gives the Democratic party ia relatiou to the com ing national convention. He says: "Every man who goes to the convention as a delegiite should go pledged to sup port the candidate and accept the plat form of that convention. No matter who may Ik: named to make the canvass; no matter what the platform may con tain, they should be accepted, and the only hope of party continuation lies in their acceptance. A delegate who goes to Chicago with the intention to stay if the majority agree with him and accept his candidate or make his platform, whether on finance, tariff, or what else; who means to bolt if his no.ion of men and measures is voted down, is a traitor in advance. He has no business ia the convention. Ho should stay at home." It was made perfectly clear at this week's meeting of the house committee on naval affairs that the Democrats fav or a larger iucreasein our navy than the Republicans do. The Democrats on the committee, led by Amos dimming-, who was chairman of tin; committee in the last house, wanted to provide for the building of six battleships and 2-3 torpe do boats, but the most they could get tbe Republican majority of tbe commit tee to agree to was four battleships and lo torjwilo boats. J ii is iienieu mat tne uinnor ana re ception given by the British Ambassador this week in honor of Secretary and Mrs Olney had any international political meaning, and sUted that it was one of the regular entertainments which had to be given later than usual on account of the Embassy having had to go int ) oili cial mourning for the death of ttueeu ictoria s sou-in-law. Representative Grosvenor, of Ohio, is recognized as one of the leading McKin ley meu in the house, and it may le mentioned in passing that Grosvenor also has a record as a hoodoo of the lir.-t water. However, what I pt tried out to say was tha- Grosvenor is making him self the laughing stock of congress by the ridiculous claims he is making for McKinley. He says that McKiuley will receive tVJO votes on the first ballot at the St. Louis convention, which would be one hundred and sixty-odd more than would lo needed to nominate him Tint McKinley is leading is cer;aiu and that hn will win if he can make a dick er with (uay and Piatt is probable. But it is certain that he is a long ways from having enough votes in siht at this time to win noon the first baM it or any other ballot, and his ability to make a trade with Ouay and Piatt will dejw-nd entirely upon jhow much strength he can control without thetn. If he has enough to wiu with the addition of the votes controlled by (J tay and Piatt and will give them as good terms as Reed has given them, there is little doubt that he could le tbe nominee. m. One Kditnr Uels But h hecks. Attorney General McCormiek will be asked by Auditor General Myliu for his opinion ia an important matter back of which is an interesting stiy. Some time ago two newspapers in ttie west ern part of the state, both of the same name, published in differeut cities, were given some state advertising, the bill of one paper amounting to about i-0 aud the other to $150. By inistike the war rants for the payment cf Uith bills were sent to the newspaper entitled to the smaller sum. iliey were both appro priated by the manager of the pajK-r who received them and in course of time came back to the auditor general's otlice as paid, when the mistake was discovered. The editor who had the checks cashed was written to and admitted that he had gotten the cash, but said it was through a mistake in his business office. He also said that the newspaper had gone into the hands of the sheriff and he gives that as an excuse for not refund ing the money. Meantime the news paper that presented the larger bill is clamoring for its money. To settle the matter as to how he will deal with the editor who kept both warrants Auditor General Mylin will ask the advice of the attorney general. Wife Murderer S ctenced. Wilkesbarre, March 2:i William Windisch, convicted of the murder of his wife at Pit'ston, was to-day refused a new trial by Judge Woodward. Win disch was then called for sentence aud his general demeanor was pitiful. When asked by the judge if he had any thing to say he replied in broken Eng lish that he did not kill his wife uutil she had attacked him first with a poker. While the sentence was leing pronoun ced the prisoner showed the most abject fear and trembled violently. After the fatal words had been pronounced the murderer exclaimed passionately: I won't let them take it to the supreme court. Let them hang me if they want to, there will Ik? another murder com mitted in Luzerne county." The scene who ditif K-ing. Hi test of all in Leavening Power. L : I I ire t o.l O0.iMJi. Natpna, Pa , March 21 A tire broke out at t o'clock this evening in the I works of the Pennsylvania Salt Manu- factoring Company, and b.r a time threatened the destruction of the entire pUnt. A rough estimate places the l.ss at T.tX 10,000, probably covered by in surance. The greatest loss is sustaiued through the melting of the tanks in which the i gold and silver solutions were stored, and their escaping into the river. S mie j i lea of this may be gained when it is lid that 100.0HO ounces of silver and ;.IHH.0iH) pounds of copjer were pro-dui-ed nionihly. The works Kissessed fine electrical ap paratus and chemical appliances, and were the finest in the United States. I'he investment in this alone amouuts to $'.t40,lHH Nearly b'H men were employed, and it was being run double turn. The tl.imfs spread with such rapidity that it was with itilhcuity that the men escaped. although only two men were slightly jured. The officials here are reticent as to the origin of the fire, but it was learned from good authority that a quantity of water was allowed to escaje into a fur nace, which caused an explosion. flu n She Knelt to fray. Akron, O., Majeh 21.

She had returned to Peninsula from Cleveland at 7 o'clock Thursday night. As she left the station to walk through the fields to her home, i bli.zinl was ragging. She had pro ceeded about half the distance, when she became confused and lost her way. he toiled through the deep drifts until exhausted, and the last she remembers was kneeling down to pray.

He was taken to the Maryland - University hrm pitil, where belies in a dying condi di on. The dot-tor arrived at the hctel Ust night. This afternoon he was found in his room in an unconscious condition. Bidu him lay a revolver with one chamler empty aud uearby a bottle that had ciintaitied aconite mixed with oil of lavender. On a table in the room lay a note giving the would-! suicide's address and asking that Max Fulton, of York, Pa , be notified. The note also stated: "It pains me when I think of the mis ery that it will cause my dear wife and children, but I cannot help it, as I have U-en tightinz against a terrible feeling for the past two months." Narrow Escape of Fisherman. Dunkirk, N. Y., March 22 Yester day afternoon about 4 o'clock the ice on Lake Erie parted near the shore and started towards Canada with about 200 fishermen. A stiff wind was blowing and Ufore the men became aware of their perilous positiou a quarter of a mile of water was lUweeu them and land, Rescuing parties were quickly organiz'-d and Uiats launched. The boats overtook the floating ice and by S o'clock sit night all the fishermen adrift had been rescued so far as known. In the meantime another piece of ice near Battery Point broke loose and started off with a number of men on it. They were rescued without much ditli oulty. The ice is breaking up rapidly in the vicinity. To Contest for Fair's Wealth. S.in Francisco, March 21. In spite of the effort of the children of James C. Fair to avoid contestiug their father's will, a legal fight over the vast estate ia imminent. The children withdrew their opjosition to the trust will, be lieving the trust clause would be de clared illegal by the supreme court, and all that they desired thus attained The heirs forgot the "pencil" will and the executor under this will. Dr. Marc Eeveuston, secured attorneys and ob tained a decision that his will, being dated three days later than the trust will, should le first considered for probate. A jury has leen summoned to pass upon the "in ncil" will, which the Fair children declare a forgery. W ill LeTt W if It the President Washington, March 23 Senator Hale, leader of the oppostion to the Cu ban resolution, said this afternoon that he did not believe the conference could agree upon a rort that would be satis factory to both houses. He rather looked upon the Cuban matter as finally disposed of, and said that it would prob ably now be left where it should have been left from the start, with the presi dent. This course would, Mr. Hale added, subserve the public good. With that out of the way, congress would proceed with the appropriation bills and when they were passed would go home. He predicts an adjournment as early as the middle of May. Iiilcrfores it It Communion. Binghampton, N. Y., March 22 Rev. R. C. Quenell, rector of Christ Episcopal church, of this city, has dis covered that the Raines liquor law, re cently passed by the New York legisla ture, and which prohibits the giving away of liquor on the Sabbath, will in terfere with the Sunday communion ser vice. As the bill also prohibits giving liquor to persons under 18 years of age, it is argued that church members under that age will be cut off from the rites of communion, even on week days. District Attorney Perkins, a Republi can, and a supporter of the Raines bill, declares that the points are undoubted ly well taken. Tnrks Murdering Christian In Crete. Lonuon.
