. SENATOR Don CAMERON is so much out of
health that his case is regarded critical,
with possibilities of a fatal termination.
Should this transpire before next Deem
Der a Democratic senator would be chosen
from Pennsylvania, and in such case the
absolute control of the senate would fall
to Malone and Riddleberger, the Virginia
senators. At present these senators enjoy
only negative influence, and must vote
with the Democrats to produce tie. The
possibility that Mr.. Cameron may never
appear again in the senate is regarded as
an impending calamity by Democrats and
Republicans alike, as almost any attitude
would be preferable to the raising of the
Virginia senators to such a status Of
power.

TBeatty-Kingston's Life of Kaiser Williaml
AS king and emperor alike, for many
years past, William I. has not appeared in
public except while undergoing his annual
water cure at Gastein and Ems, dressed in
civil dress. He invariably wears uniform
at home, even when writing letters in his
study, which overlooks the Linden avenue,
Berlin's chief military and fashionable
thoroughfare. While actually sitting at
his writing table he is accustomed to
loosen three or four of the upper buttons
of his double breasted tunic, and to turn
back its lapels. Whenever, however, a
| body of troops, small or large, is heard
approaching the palace, he rises from his
seat, hastily buttons up his uniform to the
throat, and adjusts his cross of the "Order
pour le Merite'' in such sort that it hangs
down over the coat collar exactly under
his chin. The operation, which long
practice enables him to perform in a few
seconds, concluded, he walks to his. win
dow and stands there in full view of his
soldiers while they march past. One
day an exalted parsonage, who
happened to be in CONVEX
sation with the emperor when, the sound

The Tariff Commission which went junk
citing over the country during the recess be-
tween the first and second sessions of the
Forty seventh congress, cost the country
the extravaganza sum of seventy thousand
dollars, being at the rate of fifty dollars
per day for each commissioner. For the
Pullman car service seven thousand dollars
was paid, and the remaining expenditure
was equally useless and wasteful. The
commission journeyed from city to city in
princely style. They were banqueted in
the most hospitable manner, and their ex-
ploring expedition in search of the tariff

lie officer whose term has expired is in
effect :. removal, and the law was passed
for TIE purpose of relieving the executive
froEa the odium of turning men out of
Office President Monroe and John Quin-
CT Adams refused to Ike use of the law
to make partisan appointments to
Office, but re-appointed all the officers
against whom no charges were made, thus
continuing the policy of tenure during
good behavior, which have prevailed from
the foundation of the government. Later
presidents have acled on the reverse of
this policy. President Arthur has taken
such advantage of it that he outranks
most of those who had occupied the execu-
tive Office, in turning out officials as fast
as their terms reach the limit of four
years. Thus he has placed scores of stall
warts in Office without arbitrarily making
removals. In few instances, as
in the case of Naval Officer Burt at New
York, he has enforced arbitrary removals:
and as consequence the spoils system
has been so much strengthened, though il
is apparent that the president has not
gained in public esteem by these acts. The
fixed term of Office stands in the way Of
progressive reform, and until it is out Of
the way there will be some difficulty IL
getting the matter of appointments upo1
genuine business principles. Capable
service is the standard that should contro
the tenure of Office, and any other is a
war with the civil service reform hope o
separating the Offices from politics.

by Bliss, the Chatta letter, was in his hand

by Bliss, the Chatta letter, was in his hand
writing.
Ingersoll objected to the reception of
letter, because of its irrelevancY, and
argued the point. :.
The court decided to admit the paper,
because it tended to show the business re-
lations between Brady and Walsh.
The letter was then read. 1t is a request
for the loan of some Chatta stocks and
has been often published.
Witness said Walsh did not lend him
stock. He explained the term ginger
used in the letter, did not mean
money, but just exactly what he
asked for, Chatta stock. Witness
told Walsh to buy Chatta, because it
was going up, but unfortunately it did not.
That was in the Office of Hatch & Foote,
of New York. So Walsh bought stock,
but when witness wished to borrow, he
said he had sold it. The newspaper re-
ferred to was the Republican" He used
the plural form because he expected to
make it as good as two newspapers. Was
at the time neg otiating for the ownership
of the Capitol, but came into the Critic
| later on. The other business referred to
was the Canadian lumber business of
Waugh, Brown & Co.
| Bliss wanted to know how much Walsh
and witness were to be benefited by the
proposed loan.
| He said he expected to run the price OF
| Chatta stock. Walsh would have gotten
a handsome profit on his stock and witness
had more than a car load himself. Witness
swore positively that no money had been
deposited to his credit at Hatch & Foote's
by Walsh.
One of the Price drafts was again pro
duced and witness was asked if he haG
sent or delivered that draft to Walsh.
Ingersoll objected, and characterized it
as an attempt to get in sideways, when
they could not get in by the front door.
The court said it was only question as
to whether it tended to sustain Walsh's tes
timony.
Ingersoll maintained it was not a ma
terial point. He said the paper did not
bear Walsh's endorsement to show it haC
passed through his hands, and that it wa:
proposed to fill up that gap with little
piece of perjury.
Although the Same paper was concerned
the court said it regarded the question en-
tirely different from that disposed of il
the morning. 1t was now a question OF
whether it tended to sustain or contradic
Walsh.
Ingersoll argued the point with grea
earnestness and was followed by Merric
for the prosecution.
He asserted it was not necessary for tn
intermediate holders to endorse posta
draft. If Brady had done that he woHl
have shown himself infinitely more stupi
than he had shown himself to be. Upol
the cross-examination two men, Walsh an
Brady, stood dramatically opposite to on
another in their statements, and this tend
ed to throw some light on the situation

in the argument. Decision reserved unit

the shot he knew that 1T came from West

darkness he could not see the place of fir

knew what to do. He was determined to.
find out the reckless student, and he

into play. Knowing the breadth of
the room, he measured the fall of the

the distance from his house to the
West Divinity building. With these data,
and knowing the curve which a bullet
takes, he computed the height from which
the bullet was fired and fixed upon the
very window from which the bullet must
have come.
The next day two students were greatly

MED it, and the professor gave his proof.

TIE NEW TAX AND TARIFF Law

The advocates Of the tax and tarlh bill
that passed congress during its closing
hours urged as reason why it should be
passed the fact that it simplited the class1-
fication of the articles taxed, and would
therefore do away with much litigation,
and would save the treasury department a
great deal of trouble in the construction of
the law. But it seems that this has not
been its effect, but on the contrary its pro-
visions are more complex and complicated
than those of the old law. Even the treas
ury officials, who are versed in customs
laws and classifcations. are puzzled not 9
little to construe the new law,
It seems from our Washington
special that Judge French spent several
days with the tariff commission explain
ing the difficulties of the old law. He ed
dressed the commission upon the import
ance of simplicity in classification, espec-
tally, with view to avoiding antiquities
of all kinds. Either the commission did
not heed Prench's suggestions, or the
trainers of the new law found it impossible
to carry them to a practical conclusion
The treasury department is being flooded
with inquiries as to the meaning of the
classes. All kinds of knotty problems are
propounded, and French has his hands full
It is predicted that the Inconsistencies
of the new law will cause the government
great loss. The treasury department, Of
course, will ultimately construe the Law
| with view to the interests of the govern
ment and the importers, but in the mean
| time custom officers will use their own dis
erection in many cases, and will very nat
urally desire to favor those with whom
they have dealings, and it may be years
before they arriv at any uniformity IL
the matter.
Another objection to the law is the fac
that the date when the changes in taxation
take place is not definitely specified, and
if specified they vary considerably. Thu
stamp tax on bank checks expires on the
LIST of July, the change in the tax on to
bacco and its products on the LIST of May
and Judge French has as yet been unabl
to decide when, under the law, the tax OF
bank deposits shall cease--whether on tn
Sd of March, the date of the passage of tn
act, or at the close of the fiscal year
Thus there is great confusion, and mer
chants and bankers interested canno
know what to do in the prem
Uses, but must await a decision
of the department. 1t is no small matte
to them, for it involves hundreds of thou
sands of dollars, and perhaps millions.
The haste with which the tax and tart
law was rushed through congress prevent
ed any thorough examination of its pro
visions, and as predicted by the GLOBE a
the time we have law grossly imported
in many of its important details. This
much to be regretted, as it unsettles busi
ness and may render necessary an earl
reopening of the entire question of inter
nal and customs taxation, an event tina
might prove exceedingly disastrous to th
business interests of the country. If s
many incongruities have been discovers
already, we may safely expect still large
crop to be developed after the measur
shall have been thoroughly and CRITICAL
examined.
