another notch in the long stick of tailies
for the acts of the best governor Wis

In the two years which he has occu-
pied the gubernatorial chair. Governor
Rusk has so conducted the affairs of
state as to Justify the most extravaganza
claims of his friends, made in the heat
of the campaign, and draw words of
warm commentator from even the bit
terest political opponents. and it is en-
tirely within the limits of unimpassioned

uneoualled by any previous executive of
the state, and with his name deeply
rooted in the affections of the people.

accomplish this, the five powers would
form fiotilla af gun boats on the Canton

Flats in Gotham.

New York Cor. Hartford Times.1
There has rarely been buster time among
builders in New York than the present. The
statistics of building operations from January
to September 1 show an outlay of over
$4,000, 900 on new structures of various kinds
First class buildings, including large business
houses, absorbed S12,669,000 The outlay
upon flats was close on $4,000, 900. On
tenements and tenement stores it was SIS, 750,-
600. 1t was thought a few years age that the
fiat craze had been overdone, but that seems
to have been mistake. The $4,000, 900 al
ready put into it this year is mostly for very
large flats, such as accommodate dozen to q
score of families each, very high buildings
chiefly, which dwarf and generally dalken
all their surroundings.
The first flats put up in New York were
four stories high. After a while the height
was increased to six stories Then, as el4vat-
ors came into use one or two more stories
were added. When eigho-story buildings
were put up it was thought hat the limit as
- height had been r.ach9d. But the upward
tendency kept on. The buildings OF eight
stories were followed by ones OF nine stories,
and those in turn by ten-story buildings,
which looked simply titanic But the adj
vance skyward did hot stop there. Eleven
story buildings came next, and now [ hear
there are some prodigious piles projected
which shall be twelve and thirteen stories.

Ex-senator Spencer and his counsel are

was travelling upon important private
business matters of Nevada, and when he
came to Washington to answer the sub
pena, he remained two weeks, occupying
room at the Arlington, near Col. Bis 5,
and the latter had refused to see him. He
will assert he knew nothing that would be
of value as evidence with regard
to the case in connection with
which he was subp@nssa. and William E.
Chandler, on his behalf, made statement
to this effect to Bliss before Spencer left
Washington. Spencer will say the state.

to Brady is false, as he never in his recol.
lection saw them together. He will say,

up at his instigation and upon the re-
quest of Postmaster General james. He
consented to remain in Washington at his
own expense, without compensation dur

will assert he received promise, both
from President Garfield and Postmaster
General James, that his connections witt
the investigation would not be known.

MONTREAL, Dec. 3.-For considerable

of hostility here to the duties on fruit i'm
ported from the United States, and more
especially on oranges. grapes and the like,
which cannot be produced here at all, or
cannot be ripened to perfection from
climatic influences. "Reminiscences were
addressed to the minister of finance after
the present government came into power
against the injustice of the tariff in this
respect, which was a tax that did not stim-
ulate any home industry, but Sir Lsonard
Tilley took refuge at the time in the
plea that it was matter
purely of revenue, which could not
then be dispensed with. A meeting has been
called here to commence egitation, and
there is little doubt but the government
will give way. The custom duty On oranges
is 20 per cent, and on grapes 2 cents per
