TONS OF TREASURE.
How the Precious Metal Il Rapidly
Accommodating.


WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct 2s.--The cash
in the Treasury continues to pile up beyond
all expectation, for the two-fold reason that
the receipts have not fallen OFF to the ex-
tent anticipated, and the Pension Office
seems to be in a state Of blockade, owing
to the failure, il Is alleged, OF claimants
for arrears 30 send IN additional evidence
called for in their respective cases. Com
missioner Dudley has not called for any
thing this month, nor WIN he do so, and al
though he thought a month ago he would
need not less than s1h, 00o000 TO OO,OOO
in November, 1t Is believed at the Treasury
Department now that he wSn not use more
than this sum for the balance of the calen-
dar year, including the quarterly payment
Of 81, 100000 on the regular ron, which falls
due December 4. Should this estimate
prove correct only $500, 900 or 100000
more for the year will be paid on accounts
OF arrears for the next two months. AL
though two calls for St5,D0,000 each fall
due December I and December Is, respect
lively, il Is believed at the department
have TO be made during the present calendar
year, payable early In Jennary, to decrease
the cash piling up. The available cash now
has reached theenorInois sum of over $685.
10000, when $50, 900 less than this is
considered ample for a safe reserve, and it
has frequently been run down to still s10,-
600 600 lower without ceustng apprehension.
Another call may be looked for with con-
siderable certainty within three or four
weeks

FOUND DEAD.
A Mystery Surrounding the Discovery
or Body ON Base Bali Ground.

WAUREGAN, Conn, Oct 8-The body Of
Mr.. Patrick Dillon was found dead on the
Wauregan baseball grounds. Two boys
who were going over the grounds came
across him, and, supposing he was some
drunken man asleep, they Immediately left
for home and informed their parents, who
told them TO get assistance and have him
removed. When help arrived he was found
10 be dead. How long he had balm there is
not known, but it is thought he had not
been there long. He was lying on his back,
ais hands closed upon his breast. His hat
lay near by, considerably janmed, as IL he
aad rested his bead upon it, He had on a
black coat, vest and overalls, and was bare
footed. In his pockets was found about
two dollars, a knife and a roller hook, he
being mule spinner. About three months
ago he moved here, with his family, from
East Greenwich, r. l., and about six weeks
since he left his work here and went back
there, his folks receiving word that he
would be home about Christmas. Dr.
Lewis, Of Moosup, Deputy Juror of Plain
Held, was summoned, and he postponed the
inquest until to-day. The citizens here are
puzzled because he wore no shoes OF stock
ngs,as they can not understand why man
should walk barefooted with sufficient
money In his pockets TO buy them. His
mother states that he had, son new suit Of
good clothes, but when found he had on
Overalls. He was a we'll educated man and
generally smart, but his great fault was
drink. He leaves wife and several chill
aren, all Of whom are nearly distracted
with grief at his sad end

LEvY'S QUEER SUIT.
Interesting Developments Promised
Regarding the Music Trade.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 28-Jules Levy, tho
cornetist, began a queer suit. Sixteen
years ago Levy bad ''the great pleasure
as he said in a letter 40 that time, "of using
silver cornet lent him by Henry Diston
the defendant" Levy also took occasion
10 say in that unfortunate btter that 'tho
,Ornet was the finest he had ever blown ~
Naturally enough Mr.. Distm published the
letter among several others from delighted
performers, each praising musical instru-
ments of his make Now, however, Levy
appears to have changed his mind He
claims that since 1887, when his letter To
Diston was written, he has had the pleasure
IF using a silver oornet lent by another
manufacturer, who is alleged 20 appreciate
complimentary letters better than Mr.
DiSton. Mr.. Levy infatuated TO Diston that
he desires his letter in praise Of the Diston
cornet used as an advertisement no longer
These hints were ignored, and Levy went
into court with bill in equity, setting
forth the facts, and asking that Distnn be
enjoined from using the letter for the pur-
poses of his business. Some very interest
ing facts regarding the music trade are
promised.

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct 2s-The Governor

sentenced in Rensselaer, county in 1877 to
fifteen years Imprisonment for alleged rape
He was seventeen years old when sentenced.
The complainant was nearly the same age
and resided with her mother, who kept a
disreputable house in Albany. The tive
went out together for ride one Sunday
afternoon, and about O'Clock the next
morning the girl returned home and com
planned that she had been outraged. Rab-
son was arrested and indicted. On the adj
vice of his counsel, he pleaded guilty to q
crime of which he all the time protested he
was innocent. From affidavits and state
ments obtained, the Governor is convinced
that the charge made against the prisoner
was without foundation, and that the evi
denoe producedin its support was fabricated
The Prosecuting Attorney who presented
the case to the Grand Jury expressed the
same opinion, becoming convinced that the
whole transaction was matchmaking
scheme. Judge Strait, who sentenced Rab-
son, came to the same decision.

A correspondent Of the San Francisco
Examiner thus describes new style OF
''coasting" on the st. Lawrence. There
is great deal Of fascination about such
sports, but we should prefer this semi
tropic land, with such pleasures as are
compatible with the climate;
The streets Of Montreal are all day
filed, blocked with people aud sleighs,
merry parties wrapped in furs from
above the ears to the ankle, while all
that can be plainly discerned Of the
countenance is an exceedingly red nose
set off by background OF beaver or
seal. Racing and curling parks are
open on the St Lawrence river, and
thousands assemble at the sports.
Some Of the high hills in the city
have been flooded, aud their surface are
as smooth as glass. Here the dangerous
sport Of toboggan is INDUCED in to an
alarming extent. These toboggans are
simply planks about half inch in thick
ness, curled up at the front end and pro-
vided with cushion. They will hold,
according to the size Of the toboggan,
from two to eight people. The board is
started with its human load from the
brow Of the hill. Down ii goes, gaining
velocity every second--down, down,
swifter than an arrow. Your breath is
gone, your eyes stare out, the people lin
ing the side Of the course are dark, con-
tinuous line, the sharp air cuts your face.
