RaVenOuS for Food,

Cincinnati Correspondence Rese Yorb Times.
About 8 O'Clock word was spread around
by shouts from house to house that soup
could be had up town, and produced much
excitement among the unfortunate peo-
pie, Roata were sent as hastily as posi-
BILE to these houses, and the inmates We're
taken to land, They filed up Plum street
to the soup headquarters in droVes. Every
one wanted to be the first to get to shore,
and several cases of falling into the river
occurred. The Chamber of Commerce
committee supplies, at Pearl street
market space, are being distributed to the
destitute in the east end, G. W. Green,
who is in charge, reports great destitu-
ton throughout that part of the city.
Many people come in who are ashamed
to ask for relief, and can scarcely
summon the courage, Little Fred Trette,
elevator boy in the Enterprise Insurance
building, after great hesitation, asked for
subsistence for his mother and brothers
and sisters, who were starving. He lives
in the alley back of Pearl street. Before
O'Clock this committee had bEeakfasted
400 men and had issued ratiOns to $50
women who had reported starving chill
dren. The committee sent out by the pO-
lice, to persons in want, reported by them,
&C. gallons of coffee, 40 gallons of soup, 200
pounds of meat and 100 loaves of bread,
and in addition 20 gallons Of soup to the
Spencer House tenants, who are in great
distress. People on the extreme river
front, when food is taken to them, ap-
pear nearly wild with hunger and
eat ravenOusly. They want vegetables.
The only things furnished by the
committee are meat, soup, bread, crack
ers and coffee. subscriptions amounting
to 81, 500 were received by another relief
committee this morning, Large gifts of
groceries aud clothing were also received.
There has been an unexpected demand on
the committee for bed clothing. Hum
dreds of blankets and cOmforters were
distributed this morning, but the work of
supplying these articles is hardly begun.
The headquarters, at Ninety-third street,
are crowded constantly by men, women
and children asking for relief. A dozen
or more wagons were kept employed in
taking supplies to different districts in
the city, to the police stations and school
houses, where sufferers are supplied.

When in Illinois it was found that
several county officers were enjoying i'm
mense emOluments from the fees of their
offices. the efficient remedy, it was
thought, was TO establish a fair salary,
and require that the surplus Of fees be
turned into the county exchequer. What
was the result? The Chicago Times says
that the officer, no longer Jealous to keep
down the expenses that he was not COM
PEELED TO discharge, or to collect fees
which We're not specially beneficial to
him, allowed his office to become a charge
upon the county. With a single excep-
ton, no Cook county Office is now self
sustaining.

just About the Size of 1t.

A little honesty OF purpose at the last
session, CIR greater industry in the early
dSys of the present one, would have
avoided the necessity of desperate meas:
ures now. The failure was organized
when the Sinking trick of a packed tariff
commission was devised, and was made
inevitable when what was good in that
commissions report was cast aside in
favor of system of log-rolling and trad
ing in the interest of conspiring monopo-
lies. Having proved faithless to its
pledge to reduce the taxes, Congress will
receive little sympathy for the failure of
its scheme to increases them,

Let the statistics Fiend Shout.

The compendium of the tenth census,
whose component parts have from time to
time been precipitated into the waste
paper baskets of the country ,InOw appears
in a bound volume of nearly 1900 pages,
making book considerably suggestive of
the ship that brought over the first set
tiers in the New Netherlands. 1t will be
welcome, however. Its statistics are more
valuable than those of any Of its predes

fort in this volume, which will keep him
occupied till its successor shall appear.

The Jeanette board Of inquiry have,

pleasant nature that were brought to

According TO an official report lately
published in the Marine FeOndRuHg'S
Bldtt, it is the opinion of German naval
authorities that for the future an effective
blockade has become impossible. The
reasons given are that a fleet would
always be obliged at sunset to gain the
open sea, and to remain sufficiently far
off to prevent torpedo boats issuing from
the harbOr coming up to the vessels in the
darkness, andnOt even a single ship could
be left on guard in sight of the port with
out the risk, almost amounting to GER
tainty, of being sunk during the night,
while the port would remain open not
only to light and speedy cruisers, but to
any ship whose entrance might be desired,
Under such circumstances the probability
Of a few torpedo boats lying hidden along
the coast would, it is thought, be suffi-
cient to paralyze the action OF the most
powerful squadron.

The st. Louis Republican says that the
publication Of estimates of white pine
standing in locations available for the
markets Of the United States has already
had the effect to greatly advance the price
of pine lands in many sections. 1t is
stated that no forest of pine wood in
American territory remains unexplOred.
and the entire supply does not exceed
eighty billion feet. The annual produc-
aiOn of white pine lumber is not far from
ten billion feet, and the demand is grow
ing more rapidly than the forests grow.
At this rate the year 1890 will bring posi-
tive scarcity, and a few years more a
complete cessation in the supply of the
most generally used lumber.

How a tariff that shall be at all con-
sistent with itself in its provisions and
harmonious in its workings, can ever be
concocted and finally enacted by parties
and sections, each of which insists on
special favors for itself as the condition OF
any reduction of rates, is a problem for
somebody's solution who is more of poll
tician than an economist. We shall get

A Springfield (Il.) correspondent of the
Chicago Journal reports that the Palmer
boom for the Presidency is about to be
born again in a few days. He says: ''For
some time Ex-Governor John NJ. Palmer

The Ex-Governor considered the matter

The crown to be worn at the approach
ing coronation of the Emperor of Russia,
dates from the year 1868, and is the mas
terpiece of the court jeweler, Jeremiah
Pauzie, native of Geneva, who made it
for the coronation of the Empress Cath
crime IL. Its chief ornament is the OrlOf
diamond, which is said to weigh 779 carats
and to be worth 3O,OOO,OOO roubles. 1t
formerly belonged TO the Brahmin temple,
at Tcherigam, and was stolen bya French
Grenadier, when it came into the possession
of Prince Orlof, who presented it 10 the
Empress. The sceptre, too, made by order
of Paul l., is adorned with a diamond of
19J carats, bought by Catherine III. from
an Armenian tor 10000 rOubles. Its
present worth is estimated at 100000
rOubles. This brilliant diamond formed
one eye of the massive golden lion on the
throne Ofthe Shah NadiB, the other eye
was the famous KOh-i-nOOr, now in the
possession of the Queen Of England.

Another new Cabinet has just been
formed in France. This makes the nine
teenth or twentieth since the establish
ment of the republic. 4 farmer considers
himself lucky if he puts in two crops of
hay in a year, but Frenchman would
feel sighted if he had not at least three
Ministries to setup and pull down between
Christmas and Christmas. This time Jules
Ferry, an able man, but not wholly large
minded, being a little fanatical upon
clerical questions, has tried his hand at
Cabinet making. He is not a novice. In
1879 he was Minister of Instruction with
WaddingtOn Premier, and in 1880 he was
Premier himself, from September TO No
vember, when Gambetta went into office.
He is one of the strongest of the Republi-
cans, and although he approaches the
Radicals in his hatred of the clergy, his
desire to separate the Church from the
State is very reasonable. To judge from
his colleagues, it seems improbable that
his Cabinet, as at present announced, can
last long.
