loss is about $4,000; loss above insur-

Yesterday morning Elliott had an in

who said they saw the building fired last
spring. They were at too great a dis
tance to recognize the incendiaries, but
they could see two men at work building
the fire, while two or three others stood
in the immediate vicinity. The fire went
out once, but the incendiaries renewed
it, and it soon gained headway and en-
veloped the whole building.

Gen. Babcock and the whiskey Ring

ven ohpCoCA anu Ine " hASAey 3S1nS
All the world knows how we'll the presi-
dent sustains his dignity when this duty
seems to require merely that he should
ignore unpleasant facts Butsthe country
will be apt to believe that in the crisis
reached in the whiskey investigations that
method of sustaining the dignity of the
presidents Office is inappropriate and can
only lead to painful misconceptions. The
silence of the presidents secretary in the
presence of published evidence that seems
to implicate him in a conspiracy to practice
a great fraud on the national treasury will
be taken as an admission that he cannot
deny the implication. But if the secretary
is disposed to be silent then the silence of
the president can at least only mean that
he is more tender for his friends than res
olute aud careful in the preservation of Of
tical purity; that, in short, it makes a
great difference in the case of an offender
wheter or no he is an intimate Of the exec
utive. From the only point of view that
the public can possibly hold this case is
very clear. There is no possibility now
that the imputatiOns are mere scandal or
SANDER. They could not possibly arise as
they stand even from any mans perjury.
Here is documentary evidence produced
in court by which the presidents secreta,
ry appears to be in secret correspondence
with men known to be engaged in public
robbery of enormous proportions. Car
the presidents private secretary give any
explanation of this fact consistent with his
innocence of completely in the crime? Car
he show that he did not know the charac
ter of his correspondents, or that the des
patches to and from himself referred tC
other subjects; or that he was not in cor
respondence with the conspirators, anC
that the appearances against him are falst
appearances? If he can show any
of these points the time for him to do ST
has come; if he cannot then the way
should not only be opened for his departury
from the executive chamber, but a court
martial is called for, and criminal pro
secution. There is an easy and familiar
style OF reference to the president in these
dispatches: but the country knows tha
when the threat of these disclosures wa
made the president met it with defiance
that is itself an evidence of his rectitude
But his duty is plain to see that thu
atmosphere of official life near to his per
son is cleared up. Charges that hav,
long floated in the air have now assumed
such a shape that they cannot be ignored
and it they are not explained it will neces
sarily be thought that this is because an,
explanation that may be given must b.
worse than any conclusions the public vii
draw from the disclosures made. That vii
be damaging admission.

I. Carbonic oxide is a much more dan.
gerous gas than carbonic acid, and this
obtains entrance to our rooms in many
ways, through the cracks in stoves and de-
fective stove pipes, or when the carbonic
acid of the air comes inscOntact with very
hot stove, and is converted into carboniC
oxide. The dust of the air may, on hot
stove, be burnt to produce it; or it may
flow out from our gas pipes when the gas
is not perfectly consumed.

from fungus growth which fills the all

miasm from want of a true knowledge Of
its character.
