wHimrs coop isxvr so topulab.
The General Dispositon Anions Members of Congress
Is to Go Slow.
AVar talk of the jingo style at "Washing
ton seems to be rapidly cooling off, the sen
sational reports of insults to the American
flag and outrages to American citizens not
having been yet confirmed. The general
opinion now is declared to be that the whole
thing has been a tempest in a teapot
tSFECIAL TELECr.AM TO TOE DISFATCn.1
Washington, January 29. The Sa-
moan flurry, which nothing else aggravated
so much as the published letters of Secre
tary 'Whitney, asking the State Department
to define its policy, has cooled down consid
erably, and there is now evident a disposi
tion to wait further information and see if,
after all, there is cause for war talk, and if
the country has not been making a fool of
itself for tb last week or two, in assuming
on very small grounds that there was cause
for war between the United States and Ger
many. There is no further talk of the resignation
of any member of the Cabinet. Mr. Whit
ney has put himself on record as being en
tirely opposed to Secretary Bayard in this
question, but this is not the first time the
young Kew Yorker has been opposed to the
mature publicist from Delaware, and the
latter looks upon the antagonism of the
former with a great deal of equanimity, be
lieving that he knows better than Mr.
Whitney the ground upon which he is
treading, and that when all the facts are
known, and all ot the agreement between
the United States and Germany and Great
Britain brought to light, the public verdict
will be in his favor.
JINGO TALK ALL COOLED OIT.
The general disposition among members
of Congress is to go slow. Upon the spur ot
the first reports there was a great deal of
jingo talk about war. That has all cooled
off, and the coup of Secretary Whitney does
not get near so much applause as it would
if it had been accomplished a week ago.
Hon. John Dalzell said to-day to the cor
respondent ot The Dispatch: "I don't
see how anyone can form an opinion on the
information -e have before us. Of course,
it looks as though it were somewhat import
ant that the autonomy of the Samoan group
should be preserved, but just how far the
agreement between the countries involved
goes in that direction, I have no means of
knowing. It would seem from the reports
that German subjects have been guilty of
outrages against the natives and against'the
American flag and American citizens, but
we do not know that the German Govern
ment is responsible for them. In fact, ve
are very much in the dark in regard to the
entire question, and .cannot reasonably be
expected to reach an intelligent conclusion
until we are better informed.
A TEMPEST IN A TEArOT.
Hon. Thomas M. Bayne expressed him
self in a very similar vein, going somewhat
tartner loucnmg tne Done ot contention.
"It seems, in its most serious phase," said
he, "to be something of a tempest in a tea
pot. The islands have a very small area,
not capable of affording subsistence to more
than a few thousand people, and of verv
little importance otherwise. I don't attach
any importance to them as a coaling station.
We can get plenty of coaling stations with
out them, and we ought never to have got
ourselves into the muddle. Of course,
if outrages have been committed against
the flap and against American citizens,
we should and will demand reparation, and
Germany will doubtless do the proper thing
without any coercion. As to the Monroe
doctrine, that is so much of a humbug, in
view of existing facts, that I do not see how
anybody can lug it into this question. We
are ready to go to war with a foreign
country for attempting to set up its rule
over a few little worthless islands in the
South Pacific, thousands of miles distant
from the nearest point on the coast of the
United States, while we recognize the do
minion of a foreign power dver Canada, and
treat with herand wrangle over international
questions with Great Britain about her.
TIME FOB COMMON SENSE.
"I think it is about time there should en
ter a little common sense into our interna
tional "policy. If it is to be shaped bv
maudlin patriotism such as has lately been
exhibited in the treatment of some diplo
matic questions, we shall soon tret our
fincers burnt on account of something like
this Samoan question, that is of little or no
importance to the people of the United
States."
A number of obscure and doubtful points
in the Samoan complications are explained
by statements from Secretary Bayard. Mr.
Bayard says that Germany has given this
country no casus belli; that our flag has not
been insulted or American property de
stroyed, and that the whole question is,
shall this country assert the independence
of Samoa by force of arms, if need be,
against German aggressions? As this in
volves the question of peace or war, the
determination of which resides with Con
gress, the whole subject has been referred to
that body, the President not feeling author
ized to take further steps which might pre
cipitate hostilities.
TflEY ARE INDIAN GIVEES.
Findlor Trying to Recover the Money It Paid
to Manufacturers.
rSrECIAt TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH.l
Findlay, January 29. The "Wetherald
"Wire Nail Mill, employing 150 hands, shut
down to-day pending the decision of the
courts, on a suit begun by the syndicate
which paid "Weatherald a bonus of 525,000
to locate bis establishment in this city, to
recover the amount of the bonus. The" syn
dicate claim that Wetherald has not estab
lished such an institution as was agreed on
when the bonus was offered, accepted and
paid, while the nail man maintains he
has not yet had the time in which to fulfill
the conditions of his contract and that this
move is for the purpose of freezing him out
of his valuable property.
The commencemeut of the suit creates
considerable uneasiness among the other
manufacturing institutions which have
been induced to locate here on promises of
bonus, as much of this money is still un
paid and such as has been paid is likely to
be recovered bv the doners if this syndicate
suit against "Wetherald is successful.
ARRESTED FOE ARSON.
Cnptnre of nn Insurance Swindler Who
Hni Operated Extensively.
Boston, January 29. Upon a trarrant
secured by Fire Marshal Whilcomb, in
spectors this morning arrested Johu Lake
on a charge of arson. Lake, who loarded
at "S'o. 2 Allegheny street, Koxbury, had
his furniture and clothing insured a short
time ago in the Glen Falls Company for
$500. 'On January 22 last, it is alleged, he
set fire to bis property in order to obtain the
insurance thereon.
Lake is a smart, flashy fellow of ap
parently 30 years, "tt'hitcomb thinks he has
been operating in Albany, Buffalo. New
York, St Louis, Chicago. Omaha, India
napolis and Portland. In his testimony be
fore the marshal Lake stated that he came
from Korth Platte, Xeb., where he was en
gaged in cattle raising. He will be ar
raigned to-morrow.
STRAIGHTENING TITLES.
The Triennial Allotment n Terr Good
Thine In More Wnji Than One Tax
Liens Very Hard to Trace.
Whether Senator Newmyer's bill will
or will not afford relief in the matter of tax
liens, there is evidently great necessity
tor a reform of some kind.
Mr. John Kelly, of William A. Herron
& Sons, says the uncertainty resulting from
the present chaos is such as to give real
estate dealers much trouble. He cited case
after case. For instance, some years ago, a
man named Ogilvie bought four lots in
Homestead. They were assessed in so many
different names that it was impossible to
find just where they stood, uutil they came
to be sold for taxes. Said Mr. Kelly:
"Half the taxes we pay are assessed to
wronz names, as so many transfers are not
regUired. The assessors are not to blame,
as thev must go by the light they have.
Sheriff's deeds may not be recorded any
where except in the Prothonotary's office.
Theymay nevcrreach the City Register's of
fice, as "to record them co'sts $2 25. and
some people will not pay that to have them
recorded.
"Then again trust- estates are not re
corded. In many cases also property is
owned by a wife and assessed in the name of
her husband, and vice versa, so that a law
yer cannot always trace title, no matter how
painstaking or conscientious he mar be.
"There was a vast amount of trouble con
cerning some Forbes street property, and all
because 20 feet had been released. The
trouble was to find what particular 20 feet
had been released.
"The present triennial assessment is doing
much to straighten matters out, owing to
the excitement it occasions, awakening peo
ple to the necessity of knowing just where
they stand."
Mr. Kelly referred to the municipal liens
against property under the Penn avenue act,
stating that settlement was made with the
City Attorney, but so far as he could find,
there was no statement of it in the estimate
of receipts in the financial budget.
Controller Morrow explains that it is in
cluded in the ?60,000 reported by the City
Attorney. It comes in a lump Should
the howl in regard to increased assessments
and the unusual scrutiny it provokes tend
to the simplification of the taxing problem,
the excess of valuation may not be an un
mixed evil.
The discussion on this bill to force the
revival of tax liens every five years will not
down, and some people insist that Mr. Lam
bie must have gone off prematurely in
Council, without having thought the sub
ject over. Judge Fetterman's attention
was called to Mr. Lambie's remarks, and
Mr. Fetterman stated that as he understood
the bill it would not affect the Penn avenue
liens. Further, he called attention to the
fact that the city had an attorney to attend
to its bnsiness and that he might be expected
to take care ol its interest, and it would be
but little trouble lor him to keep the matter
of the Penn avenue liens in view, if thev
were included. But the trouble, he stated,
was not with these liens. It came through
the Delinquent Tax Collector's office and
the bill would close a very wide door for
fraud. There is nothing to 'prevent a. rascal
from buying a piece of property and having
itassessed in some other person's name, and as
the law now stands it might run so for years.
He could then mortgage or sell the property
and the title examiner would not find tax
liens against ti.e property from the simple
fact that they had been filed against an
other person and the seller's deed appears
all right. The Delinquent Tax Collector
does not collect street improvement taes,
so that the trouble complained of does not
come from them.
PIGHTIXG FOR THE EEC0EDS.
Two Sets of Men Claim to be Elected to
the County Offices.
Charleston, S. C, January 29. W.J.Whip-
per, the regular Republican candidate for
Probate Judge for Beaufort county in the late
election, was defeated by the colored Repub
lican candidate on the fusion ticket. He and
other defeated candidates contested the elec
tion, and carried the case before Judce Aid
rich, who decided against them and advised
them to surrender the records of the offices to
the successful fusionists. Whipper and his
confederates refused to obey the order, and
were committed for contempt.
Whipper and Graham, tho candidate for
Joroner. have been lodged in jail. The other
defeated candidates have avoided the service
of the commitment. Whipper defiantly sas he
will stay in jail until the case has been deter
mined by the highest court. Meantime the
county cliimants of Beaufort are in trouble he
cause they cannot cet their money until the
matter is settled and the records have been
surrendered to the proper custodian.

Distress After Eating
Is one of the many disagreeable symptoms of
dyspepsia. Headache, heartburn, sour stomach,
faintness and capricious appetite are also
caused by this very widespread and growing
disease. Hood's Sarsaparilla tones the stomach,
creates an appetite, promotes healthy digestion,
relieves headache, and cures tho most obstinate
cases of dj spepsia. Read the f olio-ng:
"I have been troubled with dj spepsia. I had
but little appetite, and whatl did eat distiessed
me, or did me little good. In an hour after eat
ing I would experience a faintness or tired, all
gone feeling, as though I had not eaten any
thing. Hood's Sarsaparilla did me an immense
amount of good. It gave me an appetite, and
my food relished and satished the craving I
had previously experienced. It relieved me of
that faint, tired all-gone feeling. I have felt
so much better since I took Hood's Sarsaparilla
that I am happy to recommend It." G. A.

Wixkesbakbe, January 29. The case
of Michael Eizzello, better known as "Bed
Nose Mike," the self-confessed murderer of
McClure and Flanigan, was called for trial
in the Criminal Court here this morning.
The prosecution announced that they were
ready, but General McCartney, who was re
cently retained by Mike's Italian friends as
counsel, asked for a continnance on the
ground that he needed more time to prepare
his case. The Court fixed Wednesday, Feb
ruary 6, for the trial.

WE HAVE BEEN
DURING
Our labors in organizing and conducting our New Department Stores
were so arduous and fatiguing that' we were only too glad to take matters
easily after the holiday rush and let business take care of itself for
awhile. Now, after a month's rest, "Richard is himself again," and we
feel like pushing things. But how push things? The public is tired,
surfeited, almost disgusted with clearance sales, reduction sales, half
price sales, stock taking sales, etc., etc, etc.
How then shall we make a dull month like February one of the
busiest of the year? HAPPY THOUGHT! Why not repeat our famous
"Forget-me-not" sale? HERE GOES! We announce for
FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 1,
-OUR SECOND-
FORGET-ME-NOT SALE
SIX HUNDRED BARGAINS,
SIX HUNDRED LEADERS,
SIX HUNDRED ARTICLES,
In which the question of cost has been entirely eliminated. Never ask
the why or wherefore! Suffice it to say that we shall place on sale not
old or shopworn goods, not remnants, not seconds or damaged -goods,
but brand new, stylish, seasonable goods, at
EEVOLUTIONARY PRICES.
Doors will NOT be open until 10 o'clock,
FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 1.
Watch daily papers for detailed list of our Forget-me-not Bargains.
