HE WAS A STRATEGIST.

Prom the Washington Star.
A Aery-looking; party, with his hand
stuck into the bosom of his coat and
his mustachlos bristling like the angry
forefront of war, walked Into the Star
olllce the other morning and an
proached the editor of the crank de
partment.
".Excuse me, sir," he said, with a
sweeping bow, "but may I speak with
you a moment on a matter of impor
tance?
The editor wondered whether It was
going to be a dime or a quarter, but
tout tlw visitor to proceed.
"I want to publish a card in your
paper, sir, but before doing so I de
sire to obtain a few facts relative
thereto."
"Go on with your rat-killing," said
the editor, with pleasing and easy fa
iniliarity.
The visitor frowned slightly, but
went on.
"I desire to ask, sir," he said, "If
there Is any proablllty of war between
the United States and Great Britain."
None in the least."
"Nor any with Spain?" -"Still
less."
"Do you know of any other country
we may nave irouDie witnv
"None."
"And would you say we shall have
a period of absolute peace for the next
ten years !
"I'll bet my salary on it in advance
xor mat time."
"Then, if VOU Will lie sn klnil T nrnntri
be pleased to have you publish this
article In your valuable journal over
my signature, sir," and the visitor ex
tended a formidable looking document,
tied with red tape, toward the editor.
vnat is it about?" Inquired the edl
tor, taking it gingerly.
The visitor straightened himself up
proudly.
"It is an appeal, sir, to the patriots
of this great and glorious republic, sir.
m utieuu me nation's honor at what
ver cost oi oioou ana treasure, mr.
ond in that article I announce that I
desire to enlist a thousand men at
once wno win be ready at a moment'
notice to lay down their lives with me
at their head In defense of liberty and
our native land. We must defy all
foreign governments, sir. and eltutn
monarchies, and I desire to go upon
mo rccuru, sir, as a patriot with blood
to shed on my country's altar."
The editor applauded the valor of tho
visitor, ioia mm there were hundreds
like him and took the communication
unaer advisement, where It still is.

Allen. Neb.: Butler. N. C; Peffer, Kus.,
and Stewart. Nev., were cast in favor of

pound on all American cheese offered
In the market lor sale; and the other
two propose an Import of duty on ull
wools.
The partial conference report on the
naval appropriation bill was concurred
in and a further conference ordered on
unadjusted matters, including the ques
tion or battleships.
FAVORING BOND BILL.
A speech in favor of the prohibitory
bond bill was made by Mr. Ilans
brough (Hep., N. 1).), who claimed that
It was necessary to limit the overshad
owing power of the executive which
wns "bordering on Imperialism." He
favored action at the present session to
Increase the revenue by a duty on tea
and coffee and by an additional tax on
beer; and declared his belief that It con
gress adjourned without such action
there would be a new Issue of
bonds within a month after
adjournment and another Issue be
fore next Besslon; and that congress
would be open to the suspicion of being
in league with the bond syndicate.
The bond bill was opposed by Mr,
Blklns (Rep., 'W. Va,), as a measure
that might bring the government to a
standstill. An Interesting discussion
tonic place between Mr. Elklns and Mr.
Butler in which the latter foreshadow
ed the election of a Populist president
next November and In which the for
mer said that the next Republican ad-
mlnlstrat on would be compelled to
borrow money to carry on tho govern
ment. A set speech In favor of the free and

Water for Canine Wayfarers.
Washington, May 27. "Ice water for
does." This Is the Inscription, neatly
lettered, on a sign displuyed before a j

trough Is painted a sky blue color,
and always contains water which
passes through a refrigerator. - By u

the water Is for their benefit, and many
of them step dally to drink from the
trough.

HE HAD A SIXECt'RE.
Hut, Unfortunately He Did Not Seem 1
to Realize Its Many Blessings.
From tho Boston Transcript. ;
"It beats nil." exclaimed Mrs. Clov
ertop, who had just returned from a .
visit to the city; "It beat9 all" how some '
folks git along In this world. There's
Harry Stavers, for instance. Yotr know 1
Harry. When he was to home here he
never was no good at real work. He'd
go dawdlin' about all day long starln' I
Into a book, and when he wasn't readln'
he'd be scribblin' stuff for the papers 1
and magazines. I never saw the like
of him, and I always said he'd never
amount to nothin'.
"But, law, it does seem as though
the lazier and the good-for-nothln'er
some folks ere the easier they slide
through the world. When I was in the
city I called on Harry. I always kind
er liked Harry, In spite of his shiftless
ness. Well, what do you think! Harry's
editor of a paper down there, and they
do say he gets pretty good wages, too.
"But for my part, I can't see how
folks can pay a man for doin' jest
nothin' at all.
"Harry has a nice room full o' books
and thine and a big desk with a big
krlnkly kiver that shuts up as cute
as you please when he ain't usin' It,
and there he sets all day as grand as
a lord, recelvln' callers.
"Folks are all the time comln' In to
tell him what's goln' on, ahd they tell
him what side to take on all kinds o'
questions, and what ought to go into
the paper and what oughtn't! and, more
than that, they bring in stuff already
written enough In one day, sometimes,
to nil his paper for a week.

bother his head a bit about it.
"I never did see auch luck. I told
Harry he ought to bless his stars, for I
never did see anybody who got a llvln'
half bo easy.
"Harry Jest smiled: and said: 'Think
so, Mrs. Clovertop?' Jest in his quiet
way, you know. 'Think so! said I; 'well,
I should think I did.'
"Hut, do you know, I don't b'lleve he
half appreciates his good fortune. Some
folks, you know, never are satisfied."
BUS!NESSBREVITIES.
FORKIQN COAL. The advance In soft
coal, which lias recently been ordered by
the soft coal combination, has led to a
more active canvass among large consum
ers as to the expense of Importing for
eign coal. The matter has been brought
to the attention of members of the soft
coal combination and has resulted In a
close study of the relative prices at which
foreign coal can be brought In, and it can
be said that the price will not be put to
a point where foreign coal can compete to
any extent.
THE COAL TRADE.-Anthraclte coal
was held at J3.S5 net ner ton for stove last
1 wcck in New xoik nartior, says uun,
qen uw ioik narnor, snys uun.
projuct(on bBlnft wen restricted. Some
coai was fitil moving on orders placed
at the April circular before Slay 1, but It
wa? stated that on June all such orders
unfilled would be canceled by the compa
I iilcs. The neiv demand for coal, both .t
tidewater and at line points, was very
lieht. All the leading Interests In th
1 1 alio have no hetluuion In saying that
they bellove It will be unwise to attempt a
further advance In tho price of coal on
Juno 1. In fact, even at present prices,
the companies believe that they can final
ly, realize a larger profit on their tonnajn
by shipping It wct, via the Lake routes,
than by putting it Into tidewater Htoraiju
plants. Bales agents are already flgurliiK
on restricting June production to 3,ii5o,(MP
tons.
IRON AND STEEL.-Roturis of fur
naces in blast by tho different authorities
differ widely. The Iron Age makes the
weekly output for May 1, 188,319 tons,
agulnst 187,461 April 1, but the American
Manufacturer of Pittsburg makes the
output much larger, apparently creditlnc;
the same furnace with a much urea tor
canaclty. The Iron Age shows a produc
tion of 3.2,303 tons uuthraclte and cok
Iron In four months of iX'Mi, besides about
U7.839 tons of charcoal Iron, but the known
stocks increased I'M, 91 i tons, while the
Ki'eat steel companies held much more
In stock Jan. 1, so that consumption Is ap
parently less than U.OOO.UUO tons. Iron Is
rapidly accumulating at the furnaces,
ami Bessemer Is a shade weaker at ii .')
at Pittsburg, while sales at low prices by
Fouthcrn furnaces continue at the east,
yttcl billets are very slow In demand and
unchanged In price.
FOREIGN TRADE. The followlnp ta
ble gives the valuo of epxorts from New
York for tho week ended May 9, and ateo
three week of May, and Imports for the
weeks ended May 15, and two weeks of
May, with corresponding movements In
1895, and lfcMl thus far, with similar llgures
for last year;

ports are about a million dollars smaller
iliun for the same wuck 111 io'jj. and a Sitil
larger loss Is noticed when compariyon
with the tlrst week or May is made. The
decline from last yeur's movement is en.
tlrely due to smaller receipts of coffee

for the corresponding week In 1895, Other

RAILr.OAD NOTE3:
Tho aggregate of cross turnings of all
railroads In the United States reporting
for the tlrst and second weeks of May is
SlV.l$4,!Ki8, a gain of S.H per cent. In com
parison with last year, and a loss of 12.3
per cent, compared with the correspond
ing period In im. The llgures show Utile
variation from early returns of preceding
months this year. All classes ot roads 111
the United State continue to report a loan
compared with 1S93.
One of the traveling freight agents of
the Pennsylvania railroad, who has just
returned from a trip over the entire sys
tem, western as well as eastern lines, says
the shrlnkuge In freight traffic, as com
pared with 'the business In April, has bei
very marked. All classes of shipments
have fallen off, and were It not for the
strict maintenance of rates the railroads
would be showing decreased earnings, as
compared with last year.
The Pennsylvania company has pur
chased the Cincinnati, Lebanon and North
ern road, thirty-two miles long, running
from Cincinnati to Lebanon, O. The pur
chase of this line gives the Pennsylvania
company an Independent and more desira
ble entrance Into the city of Cincinnati,
and also shortens its present mileage
about lit tocu miles.
The president of one of the leading trunk
lines says that he has never known rates
as strictly maintained as they are at pres
ent, and that the good results of the Joint
Traffic association are more clearly shown
because business Is so dull.
The Lehigh Valley has ordered twenty
freight and five passenger locomotives
from the Baldwin Locomotive works.
