That leading Republican journal, the
New York Times, thinks Blaine doesn't
"exculpat.:n satisfactorily in connection
with that Northern Pacific scrip. and it
observes:
I'VE have no idea that Mr.. Blaine un-
derstood the true character Of the scrip
which he offered to his friends. He had
evidently first deiuded himself into be-
lieving that it carried with it certain val
liable privileges, before making that rep
resentation to others. Il is absurd to
suppose that Mr.. Blaine was deliberately
dising lnuous when he wrote 50 grandil-
oquently about an Interest which was
really q very trumpery affair, but, GER
tainly. no particular credit can be claim
ed on his behalf for returning money
which WAS given to him under totally
erroneous opinion OF the purpose for
which Il was to be invested The TACT is,
the letter is as much reflection on Mr..
Blaine's "smartness" rs it is on the keen
ness OF his moral perceptions. II is not
worth while TOR Mr.. Atkins Or Of any
other sympathetic friend Of Mr.. Blaine
to defend him because the proposed
transaction miscarried, any more than il
is worth while Tor his enemies 20 assail
him on the theory tina. there was behind
it any great scheme of jobbery.
The legitimate conclusions 20 be de-
duced from this whole business are.
first, that Mr. Blaine is . man mucil
more easily taken in than people have
supposed. and second. that whether IS a
chance tor making few thousand dol
lars or serving . friend. be vas willing
to dabble in . stock which. assuming It
to have been all be believed it to be, his
public position ought to have debarred
him from touching in any form whatey-
er. Neither conclusion is likely to i'm
prove Mr.. B!aine's chances as Presiden-
iial candidate

Compensation for all other injuries to

Foreign Criticism on the Centen.
nial Management.
NEW YORK, October 2S.-The Worlds
special cable from Paris says the Ameri-
can residents OF Paris are greatly in-
censed at letter printed in the Figaro
yesterday morning attacking the man.
agement Of the Centennial Exposition.
The letter is translated from German
newspapers, and written by NJ. Du SOM
erord, Chief of Commissioners for France
at Philadelphia, to friend in Germany.
The letter abounds In the most ma
liclous and shameless talsehoods. 1t
charges that the Americans set fire to
the buildings containing empty cases Of
French goods, hoping to destroy the
French merchandise and articles for
exhibition stored in the galleries; that
the police employed by the Centennial
Board are purposely chosen from the
worst and most degraded elements in
the United States; that the keepers are
thieves, without exception, and stole
openly from exhibitors In the French
Department and all others, and that
there exists an understanding between
these knaYes and the Judges by which
the thieves escape punishment, and are
even aided in their pillage by the
Judges. The letter concludes with a
vile attack upon the virtue and manners
OF American women.
There is every probability that the
author will be recalled, and an imme-
date explanation be insisted upon by
the American Minister.
The Herald EditOriaIIy
this morning suggests startling possi-
bility in reference to the present Presi-
Dental contest. 1t points out the possi-
bility of the election being thrown into
Inc House Of Representatives through
the greenback candidate, Peter Cooper,
getting the electoral votes Of any one or
more States, and says tnat though his
chances tor this look slender enough
now, the canvass may assume new
phase before the end of next week. If
Cooper should receive the electoral
votes OF any State it will be those OF In
diana. The contest there is close, and
il Republicans become satisfied that
they can not carry the State, they may
take the fifteen electoral votes to Coop
er and Gary.

Beyond this there was no demonstra-

at the Gaylord House, and left the city
by the 1927 O'Clock train for New York.
Stokes seemed TO be in the best of
spirits, and expressed himself as having
been treated courteously at the hands
