Captain c. A. EnelI. loaded with 5000
brick, consigned 10 VIM. Rainev, sank
last nigh, at the end of the wharf in
exactly the same spot the Cello sank a

about ten feet of water. and a contract

the effort will be successful or not it is
difficult to tell. As the brick. impreg-

Topeka Capital: The conferrers on the
railroad question, or some portion OF
them, were III session nearly all day yes
lcTday As pear as could be learned
they worked by rcliefs, rs some were
absent from their seats at timea, and on
their return others were temporarily ex-
cused. During the noon recess of the
two houses full meeting was had, at
which some of the gentlemen became
so.cXcIted that their loud assertions at
tracted the attention of all who passed
in the vicinity of the room occupied.
From the conversation at that time it
was learned that some amendments had
been agreed to, but no progress whatever
had been made toward a meeting of minds
on other important points of difference.
Mr. Knappenberger expressed himself as
though he was sick and tired of the
whole business, and disguised at having
spent So much time Ia no definite pur-
pose.
II was understood last evening that the
conferrers were practically farther apart
than ever, and that inability TO agree
would lie reported t. both houses this
morning and an opportunity given TO
appoint new committee, which will
exhaust every parliamentary device in
the way of bringing about harmony.

Senator Tabor has made a speech.
When the senate passed its tariff bill he
raised his two hands high in air and
shouted Good" II was the greatest ef-
tort of his life Scholarships come very
high in Colorado and Nevada, the bo-
nanza states, where bonanza kings CON-
pete for the privilege of GROWING a
lucky strike" with political honOrs.
1t would be interesting to know Just
how much Senator Tabor paid for the
privilege of ultering those four letters
in the sanctuary of Sumner, Seward and
Webster. Tue senate tariff bill protects
lead, and Tabor is great producer of
lead, which is refuse product Of his
silver mines. The philosopher who
said sDeech was silvern. but silence was
golden, did not know Tabor. Whether
vocal or mute. he is always leaden. The
tariff bill was "gOod" for him, and he
knows that kind OF good thing when
he sees it. Almost any millionaire
knows enough to be "good" senator OF
TabOr's kind.

In letter 10 gentleman in Roches-
ter, Mr.. E Stone Virgins, the unlucky
Canadian weather prophet. complains
that people who looked for his storm of
February . were wrong in expecting "a
storm that would rap over every mans
door-khob AT sunrise and scalp every
man in America at the same second of
time" when people," he says, "get
such an idea of the impossible, the
sooner they get over 1t the better" He
repeats his statement about his having
made an error in noting the time the
storm would occur, ana again claims
that it appeared on the Pacific on Feb
ruary 8. Closing his letter he says
This is the only storm | ever foreiold

Lutte correctness months before they r,.',E

The profession of jour .alIsm suffers
q great loss in the daatlI of Samuel j.
Msdill, late managing editor of the
Chicago Tribune, who departed this
life on Tuesday evening at the resi-
dence of his father. in-law, John 3. Car
son, at Quincy, Illinois. The deceased
was the youngest brother of Joseph
Medill, editor-in- chief Of the Chicago
Tribune. and was about forty years of
age. He was native of Canton, Ohio,
where his aged mother, deeply deYout
and estimable lady, who has been called
upon TO bury three sons and one
daughter ali in the prime of
life. still resides. Mr.. Medill was
a journalist of exceptional ability, and
had mastered every detail of the profes-
sion from the art of composition to the
successful management of the paper
whose affairs he directed for many years
with signal SUCCESS. He was gentle
man of great mOdesiy Of department, and
his exceptionally quiet manner was in
notable contrast to the great enterprise
and remarkable executive ability which
characterized his journalistic career.
He leaves beautiful and accomplished
young wife, to whom he was married
three years ago.

4 SUBSTANTIAL REPUTATION.
There having been vague rumOrs
floating around to the effect that the
governor had various charges in his
possession affecting the character OF
various members and officers of the
board of trustees of charitable inslitu-
tions, the following was presented TO the
senate Saturday ami read:
TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. "a, 1888.
To the Honorable Senate Of tie State Of
Kansas:
GENTLEMEN:-I have received infOr-
nation that the governor OF the state has
received communications containing
statements which reflect upon The char
acter of the board of trustees of stat
charitable institutions and the officers o
some of said institutions.
have made personal application to
the governor to be permitted TO examine
such letters as he may have upon the
subject, but my request is refused upon
the ground that said communications
are of confidential nature. The gov
ernor assures me that he does not deem
it his duty to make any inquiry as to the
truth or faisity of these statements; that
he has never received but one charge
against the said board of officers which
he deemed it his DUTY to inquire into
and that such charge was refuled to his
satisfaction.
Not being able TO ascertain The exact
character OF the statement referred to, l
am not prepared to assume that the gov
ernor is not right in refusing to dignity
them by an official inquiry, but mas
much as some publicity has been
given them l deem il right and
proper to state 10 the senate
that the gentlemen effected challenge
the most thorough investigation InIo
any and all matters which may in any
wise effect their character or integrity in
the administration of the trusts confided
to their charge:
understand that no charges are made
and that no effort will be made, now or
hereafter, to put these statements into
circulation, or to assume that they are
true or can in anywise affect OF iniure
in public estimation the parties re
| ferred to.
If any different construction is Put
upon the matter than that above indi-
Gated, full inquiry should be had.
Very respectfully, c. E. FAULKNER,
Secretary Board Trustees State Oh Amt
