The End ofthe Crematiop.

Washington Evening Reporter OF Yesterday.
The cremation of the stranger from
New York was completed in two hours
and a quarter. The corpse was arrayed
i'm 4 complete suit of fine clothing, and
bouquet still remained in the hand
when it was put into the retort. 1t is
probable that the clothing delayed the
cremation 10 some extent.
When the retOrt had cooled sufficient
ly the remains, weighing about five
pounds, were enclosed in a small tin
box and Theoretically sealed. This box
was given to the Rev. Mr.. Payson, who
remained to receive it. One OF the gen.
tlemen left yesterday, and Mr.. Payson
left this morning for Pittsburgh in the
early train, carrying with.him the ashes
OF his friend.

IRELAND.
An Appeal for Aid.

LONDON, December lS.-The Duchess
of Marlborough, wife OF the Lord Lieu
tenant of Ireland, writes that she in
tends to start relief fund for the suffer
ers in Ireland, and appeals for contri-
buttons. She says while the present
distress actual or possible, is not for a
moment comparable to that OF 1917.
Still, undoubtedly, IN parts OF Kerry,
Galway, Sligo, Mays, Roscomm, Done
gal and Cork there will be extreme mis-
cry and suffering among the poor.

RUSSIA
rhe Power of the Nihihsts.

LONDON, December lS.-Letters to the
Cologne Gazette from st. Petersburg as
sert that the reason the police have so
little success in discovering NihilistS is
that the evil is hidden where the police
do not venture to look. The conspira-
tors are to be found in the drawing
rooms of the rich and noble; hence a
police in the employ OF a court within
whose very circle these people carry on
their games, is powerless against the
NihiliCts

Another Defeat Of the Allies.

Another Deleat Oh lne AIlSs'
LONDON, December lS.-The details OF
the last Chilian victory state that an
allied force of Peruvians and BOlivians,
IL 900 strong, marching northward from
Novia to effect a junction with reinforce.
ments of 5000 men under command OF
the President of Bolivia, attacked, on
the 2lst of November, the Chillan adj
vanced corps of 5000 men, who occu-
pied an entrenched position at Daloras,
near Agna Santa. The Chilian cannon
decimated the ranks of the allies, whose
cavalry charged three times upon the
guns and attempted to carry them of,
but were unsuccessful. In the evening
the rear of the Chilian force came up
and decided the day. The allied forces
were driven back and their camp was
taken, in which thirteen cannon were
found. Many wounded officers, includ-
ing the Bolivian General, Nillegas, were
taken prisoners, and another OF the al
lied generals was killed. The Chilian
loss was heavy.

BULLY BELLAIRE.
Her Many Virtues.

One OF our papers two weeks ago men-
toned with deep regret that there were
no less than five dancing clubs to this
city, and that an audience respectable IN
numbers could not be drawn out tC hear
Gen. Gibson lecture. The Bellaire cor
respondent OF the EntTpriSe repeats the
sad story, and the ERterPriSe comments
on this sad fact, and tells, by Of
comparison, what a multitude attended
TO hear Gen Gibson at GAINESVILLE;
other newspapers pick mp these para
graphs. and so il goes out TO the world
that the people of Bellaire have no
taste for anything higher or better
than the amusement found at a
dancing club, boat race or foot race.
This is a wrong to tine many excellent
people of Bellaire. First, it ought TO be
remembered that il was no. generally
known that Gen. Gibson was to lecture
in this place, the persons having the
management of the matter IN their
hands acted very much as though they
desired TO keep the matter strictly pri-
vate, or as nearly so as possible; then the
evening was quite rainy, and many per-
sons remained at home doubtless Tor
that reason. Some years ago the largest
church in the city was filled until
there was not even standing room
left, to hear Gen. Gibson lecture on
Along the Lines" and there will be no
trouble at any time to till any church IN
the city 10 hear any man or woman who
has anything to say that is worth hear
ing, il the fact is only made known to
the people. The people OF Bellaire are
Just as anxious to be instructed or
amused as the people of any city in the
State. In proportion TO the population
there are just as many people here who
care for all that is good in religion,
science, art, and what is known as the
higher amusements, as in any part OF
the country. Our mechanics, merchants,
manufacturers, labOrers and professional
men are Just as intelligent, and have
quite as elevated taste as the same
classes in other cities, and they know
enough to know tnat lecture, though
means of mental cultivation, is not the
only means. Our people read as many
periodicals. and as many books OF all
kinds, as others, and they talk Just as
intelligently On the subjects that are
topics of discussion among the people.
Ii is time this careless misrepresentation
of the people Of Bellaire be stopped

Grant and the NicarauGuan Canal Presi-

PHILADELPmA, December lS.-Grant
had an interview to-day with admiral
Ammen on the Nicarauguan Canal pro-
iect. Nothing definite as to Grants in
tentionS can be learned, but some re-
marks made by Admiral Ammen to his
personal friends are construed into the
belief that Grant will accept the presl-
denCy OF the canal company.
PHILADELPHIA, December l7.-Ieneral
Grant was asked personally this after
noon whether he had, as was announced
i'm some OF the morning journals, ac-
cepted the presidency of the Nicarau-
guam Canal Company, rendered him by
Admiral Ammen yesterday. 81 hardly
know enough about the scheme to say
much about it, remarked General
Grant. But urged his questiOner,
''you can say whether or not you have
accepted thepresidencyo ofthe company"
Yes" replied the General, 81 can sat
isiv YOU on that point; certainly have
not accepted the presidency OF it,
