Increase in Litigation.

The increase in the number of cases
brought before our courts, is becoming
positively alarming. In many places,
not only in this state, but in others, the
matter has been brought before the pub
lie by the judges, and by them is urged
upon the people the importance of set
tling many of the minor cases by arbi-
tration, or before the Justice. Many
justices fail to carry out, the intentions
of the law in this respect, and instead of
saving work for the courts, actually
help to increase it. In referring to this
matter a short time since one of the
Common Pleas Judges in Philadelphia,
said: " If there is not some action taken,
which will tend to stop the increase of
cases which require the attention of our
courts, the number of judges will soon
have to be enlarged, or cases will remain
on the trial list for years before they can
be reached"
This is question that appeals direct
ly to the pockets of the tax payers, and
it is for them to remedy the matter. We
believe if the statistics were brought
before the people it would show them
some facts that would cause reflection,
and perhaps astonishment.

SENATOR BECK is reported to have
said with reference to the course that
Democrats should take in the case of the
death of President Garfield. :" 1t should
be time when love of country should
rise above all party questions. AS to
my own course, would be in favor of
some conservative Republican, say Hen
ry b. Anthony, of Rhode Island, for the
position of President protein of the Sen
ate, and thus avoid any inducement for
any insane person or political fanatic to
desire the death of Mr.. Arthur. In
such contingency, this would be a
graceful recognition of the fact that, un-
der the great calamity which has befall-
en- the nation, the intensely party spirit
and the eagerness for spoils were for the
time forgotten"

Disastrous Fire in Philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA, August G3.-Warner
& Merritts fruit warehouse, Nos. so, 80
and 54 North Delaware avenue, was
destroyed by fire this morning. The
fire is believed to have originated from
an explosion of gas, which took place
shortly before 6 this morning, and al
most Immediately afterwards flames
rushed through the building and out of
the doors and windows. The fire made
rapid progress, the contents of the build
ing being of an inflamable character,
and about Z o'clock the walls fell in
every direction. The building was six
stories high, built of ornamental brick
and sandstone, and extended fifty feet
on Delaware avenue,and 1870 feet through
to Water street. 1t was finished for the
firm by the executors of the estate of
John Hopkins, of Baltimore, the owner
of the ground, and was valued at 500,
600. The stock was of a miscellaneous
character consisting of West Indies
fruit principally, 100000 cocoanuts and
$50 900 worth of bananas, most of which
was received only day or two since
The entire stock was valued at $75,0 900,
and the refrigerators and other appara-
tus and machinery for the manufacture
of dessicated cocoanut was valued at $50,
600 more.

Beating a Child to Death.

NEW YORK, August 24.-Mrs. Kunze
whose husband is at present working on
railroad in the West, is charged by her
neighbors with numbering one of her
children. The Kunzes are Germans
and have several children. About three
months ago they brought from Germany
a boy of 5 years old, named George,
whom they had left behind when they
emigrated to this country. The child
was suffering from rachitis, species of
softening of the bones, that made him
permanently cripple. 1t is alleged by
neighbors that Mrs. Kunze treated this
child with inhuman cruelty from the
time of its arrival, and often expressed q
wish to get rid of it. Last night the
neighbors learned that George was dead.
The rumor spread that he had been
beaten to DEATH Some one had seen
the boy with his face blackened and
burned. Neighbors were refused admit
tance to see the child. DIR. Richard
Hoelger gave certificate of death from
rachitis, but he had not seen the child
until Monday night, when it was in a
moribund condition. To-day the child
was buried. The neighbors, when they
saw Mrs. Kunze to-day, spoke of hang
ing and lynching. She says the bruises
on the child were received while he was
playing. An investigation of the case
will be made.

ca They are putting machines in the
White House to drive cool air into the
Presidents room, keeping the tempera-
ture at any point desired The idea of a
cool sleeping apartment in July so
strongly appeals to the senses that the
comment of lady on one of the street
cars the other morning was but natural.
Her husband, sitting beside her, read
aloud of the means taken to cool the
Presidents chamber, when the lady eX-
claimed, involuntarily: "Oh, dear L
wish could sleep with the President a
whilel" And then to her surprise the
occupants of the car laughed.

The Presidents Condition.

The condition of the President
through the past week has been such
as gave but little ground for hope. The
parotid swelling, the surgeons opened on
Wednesday but it gave little relief On
Friday morning the accumulated puss
found vent through the ears and though
it relieved the pain, has decreased the
swelling but little. The doctors now ac-
knowledge the fact that blood poisoning
is causing them much alarm, and it
seems to be doubtful if the President
can take sufficient nourishment to tone
up the blood to healthy condition. If
he can do that, he has chance for re-
covery, if not his death is certain, ere
long. During Friday and on Saturday
morning, the bulletins issued from the
sick-room, were such as to make people
look for his death at any hour. Satur-
day evening slight change for the bet
ter was noted, and on Sunday morning
the bulletin was the following:

Nothing but skin and Bones.

WASHINGTON, August 23.-Those
who have seen General Garfield can
scarcely comprehend that lie now
weighs but 1875 pounds. Yet Mr.. Blaine's
dispatch of the accuracy of which there
is no doubt, is confirmed by the state
ment of those constantly about the sick
room and of the attendants who lift
him. He is nothing but skin and
bones," said one of the attendants, and
well he may be, for if General Garfield
weighs but 125 pounds, there can be
very little left of him except his mas
sive frame.

Attorney Robinson was playing with a
revolver which was put in evidence, and
