for the voluntary wind.up Of the com.

shows that it will require $to0. 900 to pay
off everything and have sufficient working
capital left to develop the mine. This
should be raised by . first mortgage, the
debenture holders agreeing to come in

H darker FRAUD.
Senator Foley gave notice that he would
move to-day to reconsider the vote BY
which the Marker Reclamation bill"
passed the Senate yesterday. He made
the motion this morning, but it did not
prevail, so that, as far as the Senate is con-
cerned, this gigantic opening to fraud il
happily started. This is another political
stroke for the manufacture Of party bum
combe. The Democratic Senate was on
the programme to pass it, and the Repub-
lican Assembly is booked to kill il. It 10
to be hoped that nothing worse may come
OF it. Should the Assembly stand in with
Mr.. Marker, however. on account Of graft
tude to him for his railroad vote, it is ex-
expected that Gov. Adams will add one
more good act to his list and veto the
insidious fraud.
OBSTRUCTION.
have just left tho Senate, in which
body the Committee on CORPORATIONS
begged leave to make . report out of order
on the special message Of the Governor, it
being understood that the report was &C.
%companied by q new railroad bill cutting
down ell rates on present schedules to 70
per cent Of what they are now-the bill
discussed above. The pro-railroadists,
led by Senator Hobart, objected to the re-
ception of the report, and forced the COM
mittee to appeal for q two-thirds vote to
suspend the rules, as was necessary. The
motion was lost. Mr.. Foley voted in the
affirmative. In reply to Mr.. Hobart, who
said he had had all the legislation on rail
roads that he wanted, he said that he was
OF . different opinion. He would like to
see the proposed bill and hear it read in
the Senate. The bills previously pre-.
sented we're Objectionable and he could
vote for them. I think it useless for
me to return to the Senate to inquire what
the issue Of the discussion. OF course
the report Of the committee was not re-
ceived and is put off one day more-with
two other days Of the session left. In
q private conversation with Mr.. Foley he
stated to your correspondent that if the
provisions OF the committee's bill are as

Amending the Law in the Police
and Fire Departments.
Advised by telegram from Eureka Tues
day. signed by W. n. Remington. Thomas
Wren, Il. sadler and Joseph Win2sll. SEN
ator Foley introduced Il bill amending the
statutes in such . manner that the County
Commissioners are empowered to levy 4
tax Of one.fourth Of n per cent upon tho
assessed valuation Of property within any
unincorporated town for the benefit OF the
fire department in which town the votes
cast at the last election (1sS2) were less
than 1900.
Also q bill granting the same power Of
taxation to the Commissioners for the bon
at OF the police department, with . proviso
adapting 1t to Eureka. 49,.
The Arst bill practically does away with
the present system Of police. and leaves II
with the Commissioners to supply the
force when necessary with deputies.
The two bills have passed the Senate
under suspension Of the rules. and will
doubtless pass the Assembly and b ap'
proved by the Governor.

Their Bathing Dresses.

One thing has TO be said TO the credit
Of the Atlantic City girls, oil Of them,
the tall, graceful girls from tho seaside
and Brighton, from the Dennis and
Haddon houses, and the girls from the
cottages as well--they do not use
padded bathing suits. A gentleman
who has visited several of the other and
more pretentious seaside resorts has
seen these delusions and snares before
they were worn, and then seen them
with their living skeletons inside of
thepa In the water OF course they are
strictly for that very spirituelle style
OF girls known In the technology of
dressmakers' art ms "plank-shaped. v
AT two or three of the fashionable re-
sorts these symmetrical suits,
with padding so arranged as
not to be displaced by
getting wet, have been introduced, and
at Cape May they are hired. AT the
other places they are sold. As they
enable the wearer to display dimen-
sions just where dimensions are most
lacking they are considered n great
public benefit. At Atlantic City none
OF the girls will have anything 10 do
with them. The Philadelphia girl

evasion. She is not that kind of ~ girl.
In her natty little dark suit, with
out a touch of color and palpitating
with each onward step, she enters the
breakers all by herself, and after the
first douse comes up just as real and
tangible and genuine as before she
entered. This probably is the first
season that attention has been given TO
really elegant bathing suits, but few
of them are to be found ut Atlantic
City. They are well made and of
good material and fit nicely, but
they are not fancy. There are occa-
sional exceptions, and alady was seen
bathing yesterday with cream-colored
hose, canvas CATERS bound with blue,
a red silk tuiban a red jersey and pale
blue breeches, cut short and edged
with lace. One of the most modest
and yet elegant bathing suits on the
beach is worn by young married lady
of Philadelphia. 1t is all OF black,
with long trousers below the skirt,
which is very much plated.

A Baby on the Battlefield.

The Martinsburg correspondent of
the Wheeling TteHigencer relates the
following story: almost every family
and individual here has some bit Of ro-
nance in connection with the late
war. To-day ut musicale, to hich
was kindly invited, / met n lady whose
talents as a musician and whose
remarkable beauty had attracted
attention. She possessed that
rare type of prettiness that is wholly
Southern. Great, Geep blue eyes, the
face perfect in every feature, hair rich
in its abundance and wonderful IN its
tint. This is her story. Twenty
years ago, when the tide of battle In
long bloody waves swept over the
terrible field of Manassas, a baby girl
was left an orphan on the battle
ground. During the changes
OF the fateful day the
home of the blue-eyed girl was
at one time directly between the fire
Of both armies. As the first shots
whistlcd above the house the parents
started to flee for place of refuge A
dozen yards from the door both were
shot down, and the baby, an orphan,
without sister Or brother, was alone IN
the world. The battle ragged on, dead
and dying We're everywhere, nut
the baby was unframed. The
day wore away, and just
as the suns last rays, half hidden in
the curling smoke, sadly kissed the
earth good night, General Jubal Early,
riding by, heard the baby's cries. lie
dismounted, and, taking the little
waif up, cared for it until he could
place il under the care of his sisters.
irhey watched it through its infantile
wears, giving it an education and a
world of love, and now the
baby grown to womanhood,
lovely and accomplished. the

cali her "Waif." is the sole support OF
those two women, sisters OF the rebel

LOrilard,s Horses.
IN. Y. Times.


Three of Mr.. Pierre Lorilard's string
OF race horses, including the great
Iroquois, returned yesterday from
England to their native shores, with
their tails between their legs, SO to
speak. American horses have done
nothing to mention in England for
two seasons. The victories of Iroquois
and ForhoN in 1881 made that very
memorable year in the annals of the
turf. The Derby, the st. Leger, the
Grand Priv, the Cesarewitch, and the
Cambridgeshire, we believe-all the
great prizes, in fact, except the "cups"
fell to the two strangers. 1t was no
wonder that English turimen viewed
the portentous series, like makers of
platforms, with apprehension and
alarm, and that the philosophers in
vented theories, ranging from therari-
ty of the American atmosphere to
the succulence of the blue grass of
Kentucky, TO account for the supe-
riority of the transplanted thorough
bred. Certainly the number of Amer
lean victories in proportion to the
number of American horses in train
ing on the English turf seemed to call
for some sort of international eXplaTa-
ton. But the truth seems to have
been simply that ForhdU and Hoguois
in their 3-year-old form were extraor-
binary animals for either side of the
water, and the seasons of 1882 and
1888 have not justified any generaliza-
ton from these horses to the superior
ity of the American thoroughbred in
general

An EARLY Morning Incident in n Horse,
New York Tribune

New York Tribune
The hour was within q few minutes
of IA. M, and a Third avenue surface
car had just stopped at the downtown
terminus. 1t was an open car, and
the passengers, half-asleep or half
intoxicated, began to discharge them
selves in II mechanical manner, to
escape the inevitable summons
from the conductor. One pas
no sign. Him the conductor
ly, with the admonition, peremptorily
ears and take walk in the fish mar
ket." The young Teller" was a man
whose gray and scanty locks and
ly disturbed indicated on who had
very nearly seen the weary winter sun
twice forty times return. But there
was about him a jaunty look, although
he was poorly clad, that positively
forbade the Inference that ever time
had added proofs that man was made
to mourn.
1t was evident to spectator that
the old man did not wish to quit the
car and that he did not know how to
avoid doing so--in other words, that
he was pennies. Accordingly a
nickel found its way into the aged
hand that was moving about in an APP
parently aiinless way but which pro-
baby was kept in motion in feeble
attempt to hoodwink the conduc-
tor into the belief that. its owner was
on the point of departure. The
effect of the touch of money was magi-
cal. From a creature ready to depre-
cate n horse-car conductors wrath the
old man was transformed into an in
dependent, self-asserting being. He
handed over the paltry piece with an
air worthy of imitation by dude
when he gives his last half dollar to o
Delmonico waiter.
Turning to his friend in need, the
old man lifted his bat and said impress
sively: "God and His Holy Mother
forbid yon ever to suffer, sir.p Then
becoming confidential, he said: "Do
you know the reason? I'd as soon be
in Filadelfy as here: as soon be down

left me his money and his clothes, and

there was no doubt that he had admin.
