Government He died about ten years
ago, and the pension reverted to his two
daughters, Elizabeth and Margaret. After
his death his brother Thomas was appoint.
cd guardian Of these minor children. He
then began to drawthe pension money due
them, which he equandered for drink,
while he neglected and abused the chill
dren.
Secretary Grew investigated the case. He
found that the charge was true, and that
the uncle had already appropriated to his
own use 81 500 belonging to the orphans.
He was arrested and fined for the neglect
OF his wards and the guardianship revoked.
The children were committed to the cus-
tody Of thesociety. The younger girl, Mar

WASHINGTON, D. O., December 26.-Gen.
Mckenzie, Commander Of the Department
ofTexas, has been temporarily relieved from
his command on account of nervous pros.
tration, which has disturbed his mind. The
affairs Of the department will be directed
by General schofeld. The condition Of
General Mckenzie causes grave apprehen-
sions on the part oil bis friends.
Gen. McKenzie's army friends here say
he has long been sufferer from neuralgia
and nervous affection, which was ag-
grayated by exposure in service on the
frontier and residence in New Mexico.
During the war he was twice wounded and
much nervous trouble, which has affected
him for years, was due to these injuries.
His friends fear that even should he re-
cover from his present mental prostration
he will be incapacitated for active service.

Foreign Affairs.
WASHINGTON, D. O., December 26.-Mr.
Cox, who was appointed Chairman Of the
House Committee on Naval AtfAira; in
formed an intimate friend, a member Of
the House, that he will positively decline
to serye on that committee when Congress
reconyenes. The reasons assigned fol
Cox's refusal are that the Committee on
Naval Affairs will have comparatively
little before it during thepresent Congress,
and twenty-five years of service in the
House entitled him to the Chair
manship OF Foreign Affairs. His
friends say that in that position
Cox contemplated advocating reforms in
the line OF reduction of the number Of
foreign ministers, vesting consuls with
diplomatic power when necessary, and i'm
proving the consular system so as to make
Il q more powerful agency in the advance
ment OF the commercial interests Of the
country.

CulcAGo, December 2G-Congressman

work Of Congress, and the Presidential
talk in Washington, said:
"This is a President making year and
economy is the wstchword and battle-cry
Of both parties, and the Democracy having
large majority in the House, thereby con-
trolling legislation, will probably unneces.
sarily and unreasonably reduce appropri.

jubilant deficiency bill will not scare
them. uthey fail they will try and force
the odium OF the deficiency on the Repub-
licans." ftl
"What information can you give on the
Presidential question, Mr.. Dunnam?"
"There is no great amount OF talk about
candidates at Washington, as this has been
a working session TO lar, but there is q
feeling among Republicans that they must
and will carry any candidate selected by
that party. They are determined to elect
their man. All OF the prominent candi-
dates have their friends-Logan largely
among the western people, Blaine from
various sections, and Arthur largely from
officeholdert and some OF the great business
interests OF the Eastern States. Other can
dfdates are mentioned, though only slight

spirits Just now" ~
"How about the tariff troubles?'
"rhere are three elements among the
Democratic representatives, Oae is the
radical free-traders, one the Pennsylvania
