Ameri can Cobdenlsm alone can prevent his coming. The pearl button ludutry wao s'arted In this country about fifty years ago, but, unfortunately, did not thrive, and those who Invested their money in the enterprise had to buv- cumb to adverse circumstances, for they learned to their loss that they could not make or sell as good articles as those that were Imported equally aa low. Many attempts have been mado from time to time to revive tho in du9try, but they all proved fruitless up to 1800, when the present tariff law was enacted. Impressed with this view of the surroundings, numerous pearl works have been erected during the last nine or ten mouths in and around New York and Brooklyn, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, which are now in full operation with no less than (000 hands employed, earning good wages from $17 to $22 u week and skilled workmen and cutters of fine work from $24 to $30 a week. Our English friends are bewailing the falling off of the American de mand for British wire, and aro endeavoring to find reasons for it They point out that only a few years ago the. imports of the rod billets, rod and finished wire exceeded 190,00 tons annually, but at present the trade Is comparatively email, and is every year growing less. The quantity of iron rods imported Into -the United Stales during 1690 was 55,427 tons, while the Imports of wire and wire roping were but 4,611 tons. The con elusion they reach is that the Ameri can wire manufacturers are supplying tho demand ot this country. A Safo Investment.

"Boardors all gone workln', Mr. Bloaso man," was the glaring falsehood. Connors Btar ted to go up stairs, but tho WJtnitn attempted to stop him, saying "Vat torn you vunt up dero. You coino down, mjno boarder gone.1' "Yes, you boarder gone, but mo go up and see," said Connors, as he pushed the woman, aside and walked up stairs. Arriving in one of tho uppor rooms Connors soarched all the closets and looked undor tho beds, but no flunk could ho find. In onccornor of tho room several bundles ot straw stood on end. Connors poked his canu into them as h6 passed and was sur prised to hour, "Hold on, Mr. Bleaseman; I come, I como." uonnors was forced to smile as he saw a Hunk crawl from bohind the bundles of straw. "Votforn jou do dero?' asked Connors, with a grimmace. ' Oh, mo just havo some fun," the llun answorod as ho arose to his feet. Tho policeman started down stairs with the man, but when half way down he turned back and asked tho prisoner if any other boardors wotu upstairs. Tho fellow a-eurod him most solemnly that there were nono, but Connors returned to the room.

HE WAS WANTED AS A WITNESS. But Declined Poei ively to Answer Any of the Questions Put to Him Said ho Had Boen Ma igned. I'fllLADaLPrtrA, 8sp. 10. Tbo spoctncla ot a convict ox-cltsy offlolal appearing In court aa n witness and a numbsr ot prominent and influential citizens ai de fendants is very rare Indeed. Wbon John Bardslay was brought into court yesterday, handoufted and In oharge of Warden Cassldy, to be used, If poesl bla, in aiding justice In gettlug n hold ou other wronguoors, it was generally ex pected ho would act the part of a clam, and so he did. That tho District-Attorney was greatly perplexed at bis refusal to talk was fully attested to by thuc goatlemau this morning. In opening the procoedtnas beforo the court the District Attorney narrated the foot that his assistants had rcpontedly culled on Burdsley in prison to obtain testimony, but novor wore succoisfuL The Dlstrlat-Attoruoy then announced that tho Commonwealth had subpoenaed Qlendonnlng & Sons, Auditor-General MoCamant, William 11. Llvescy, cashlor in the Stato Treasury, who was not pres ent, and tha ofQccrs of tho Farmers' and Mechanics', Third National and Seventh National banks, selecting thoso banks, the District-Attorney concluded, in which there could bo no question as to knowledgo as to whose money Burdsley was being paid Interest "PQ" Here the name, of John Bardsloy was called. Tho clerk offered to swear him, but ho refused. Ho said: "Tbo publio have been tnught to believe that there Is no value In my word whatever. I havo been maligned aud I hnyo got to-day moro than I can bear. My self-respect, however, in viow of all that has been said and done, will not permit me, under any circumstances to give testimony ia this court," Judge Foil rcmtndodhlm that he oould rcfued to answer qustlons, but bs only insisted that he would not be sworn. The District-Attorney lnUstod that ho should bo sworn. Judge Gordon Mr. Bardsloy, It is your duty to toko tho oath administered to you. You aro a cltlron subpoenaed hero regularly, and it is your duty to take the oath. Tho other matters will be determined when thoy are reached. Mr. Bardsloy If your Honor says so I will tako the oath, which he did. "Do you know Mr. McCninailtr" "I de cline to answer any questions at all. I havo simply been sworn out of deference to yonr Honor, because you think it is my duty." After a number of other questions had been asked Burdsley, all of which he de clined to answer, ho finally said: "I have declined to answer uny questions. My mind bus Irrevocably been mado up and no inducements under tha circum stances can prevail upon mo. It is use less for Mr. Graham to further distress me." Bardsley was then dismissed from tho stand. TheGlendennlng caso was next called, and after a lengthy examination Robert Glendonnlng and George H. Hubn, con stituting tho firm of Glendonnlng & Co., were held lu $10,000 boll each for court, on tho charge of having nlded and abetted Bardsley in his conversion of the publio money. Bail wus entorod in tholrbo half. The cases of tho three bank presidents were then takon up. Mr. Grnham said it was a question In bis mind if the presidents could bo In dicted, as tho law of conspiracy did not cover tho case, and he wanted tho opin ion from tho judges sitting as to whether the presidents of these banks could be indicted for paying interest. "I submit to tbo court," said Mr. Graham, "that this question as present ed in my own mind is one of immorality and not of criminality, and if tho court agrees with tho thought in my own mind I should feel it my duty to recommend that no further uctlou bo tnken and that no warrants bo issued, feollng that there Is not sufficient In tho law of conspiracy to warrant an arrest." Aftor tho court had retired for a spaco of ten minutes they returned and read their opinion, In which they decided that no action would lie as against tbo per son paying interest.
