TRIBUTE TO DIR. LEWIS.

DR.. Lewis is dead few realize the fateful
words, and to many to whom he vasa guide
a counsellor and friend his loss will be il.
reparable.
Virginia has given birth TO many noble
men, but amid the stalwart sons Of the Old
Dominion no truer, nobler, or more princely
gentleman ever lived than he.
Many Of earth's poor mortality need state
" marble shafts and monumental brass to
perpetuate their fame, but Magnus NJ. Lewis
leaves bis name and memory impressed on
human hearts.
allegory Of the Paridise and the Peri makes
an honest tear that falls from the eye the
most acceptable Gift to heaven. How pre-
cious 10 the untrammelled spirit must be the
tears that drop upon the grave, and how
many eyes ''albeit unused to the melting
mood" grew humid and dim, as they gazed
upon that casket that contained all that was
mortal OF that noble mun--the like of whom
We may never expect TO sec again.
Were every one for whom he has done an
act of kidness or deed of charity to send
memorial stone to build Il memorial shaft,
it would top the loftiest spire
One can say OF him what the sorroWing
bard spoke over the body of the Knight Of
Greves
'Ah, Sir Launcelot. there thou liest that
was not matched of earthly hands thou
vert The fairest and gCodliest person of any
that ever rode III the press Of knights, and
thou vert the truest TO thine sworn brother
Of any that ev'r buckled on the spur"
Doctor Lewis never told Of his kind heart
edness and benevolence manifested so often
He literally obeyed the divine injunction of
keerin. Our charities TO ourselves.

Comparative Statement Of Pork
Operations for the Season
Just Closed.
How The Product Compares With Last
Years Killing Heavy Falling
off in Chicago.
Other Cities Increase Their Business and
Make Good the Defcit-Where
Bogus Butter Comes From.

CINCINNATI, o., March 2l.-In its issue
of yesterday morning The Cincinnati Price
current published a full statement of hog
packing operations ut leading cities, for
the winter, ending March /, preliminary
to full report for the entire West, etc,
which will appear next week. 1t
says that the total packing at the seven
large cities, which represent about
10 per cent. of the entire Western pack
ing, aggregates 1865, 4Sj hogs the past
winter, compared with 4, 4j0,9 last year,
a decrease of j83, 4jj. OF this falling off,
Chicago represents SAG, 439 hogs. st.
Louis shows an increase of 55,2lS hogs,
Louisville 1882, and indianapolis 1922;
Cincinnati decrease Of 59,949, Milwau-
kec 2S, 0l3, Kansas City ls,2l2.
The decrease in number of hogs packed
at these seven cities is IS per cent, The
aggregate of the six cities exclusive of
Chicago falls below last year 37,0lG hogs,
or less than per cent.
In the average gross weight Of hogs
there was an increase of one pound at
Kansas City, and decrease at the other
points Of lOll at st. Louis, 1853 at Gin
cinnati, 1880 at Chicago, 27.2 at Indiana
polls, Psi at Louisville, ~ 70 at Mil
waukee, the general average being 2j0,6S
pounds, compared with 2gG0j last year,
or decrease Of 1897 pounds, or G8 per
cent. The variation at the different cities
seem TO reflect pretty closely the relative
quality of the corn crop in the different
localities; in Kansas City, where hogs
were drawn from sections having good
corn, the weight was maintained, not
wthstanding the drawback of the Sc
we're winter. At st. Louis the reduction
is less marked than further east. The
large falling-Off in average weight of
hogs has been due to the inferior quality
Of the corn crop in most sections of the
West, and the prevalence of cold weather
decidedly adverse to fattening tendencies
OF stock
The variation in production of lard
has followed closely that of the average
weight. The general average yield is
33.37 pounds per hog, compared with
3j.G last year, a decrease of >. 40 pounds
or 81 per cent. The average percentage
yield of lard this season at these points
Is 1881 per cent. of the average gross
weight of hogs, compared with 1929 per
cent. last year Chicago, st. Louis, In.
dianapolis and Kansas City show an in
crease.
The aggregate production of lard a,
the seven cities is l29,072,245 pounds,
or 39l ,l2s ticrces, compared with lj9,.
29,jjl pounds, or 4o2,jl4 tierces, last
year,
The production Of barreled pork has
shown a considerable falling off at these
points, the comparison being as follows

THE YELLOWSTONE PARK.
A. L. Love Appointed Receiver of the
Park Improvement Company.

New YORK, March 2l.-The Yellow
stone National Park Improvement Com
pany of which Rufus Hatch is President,
has gone into the hands of receiver
The application was made by Mr.. Charles
f Quincy, a stakeholder and creditor of
the company. The company was repre-
scented by ex-Judge X, S. Green, but made no
opposition to the motion, and Judge
Nixon of the United States Court at
Trenton appointed Mr.. A. l.. Love, cash
Ter of the bank at Livingston, receiver.
The bank is creditor to the company
to the amount of about Sl4 900. In the
absence of Mr.. Hatch the secretary of
the company, Mr.. Ashley w. Cole, said
yesterday that the company had ex-
pended in cash Sl30,000, of which Mr..
Hatch had personally advanced Sl20, 900.
Besides this, the debts of the company
amounted to $4,000, making the total
liabilities over 100000.
The assets consist of the new hotel in
the National Park and its furniture and
fixtures, which cost altogether $4,000.
1t was built, however, under the most
adverse circumstances. 1t cost to trans
port from the railroad terminus to the
site of the hotel, $50 miles, S25 per head
for each workman employed, and ten
cents for every pound of the material.
Among the assets are saw mills, machin-
cry, cattle and other property, whose
value can not well be estimated.

TIE LASKER RESOLUTIONS.
A Succinct Account of Their Disposal in
the House of Representatives

A Succinct Account of Their Disposal in
the House of Representatives.
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 2l.-The
Lasker complication has been satislac-
torlly disposed of, In the opinion of Il
large majority of the House, by the adop.
ton of the temperate resolutions framed
by the Committee on Foreign Affairs. A
respectable minority, including Hiscock
of New York, Belford of Colorado, Reagan
of Texas, Guenther of Wisconsin, and
Cox of New York, entered their protest,
either by votes or speeches, against the
conservative action proposed by the com.
mittee, which they regarded equivalent
to an apology to the German Chancellor
for having dared to condole with the Ger
man nation upon the death of Dr.. Lasker.
Mr. Ochltree, of Texas, made himself the
central figure by a set speech against
the proposed resolutions. Being his
maiden speech in the House, there was
great curiosity to hear him, aad it had
been expected that he would proceed at
once to scalp Bismarck and declare war
against imperialism. But he not only
spoke well, but was much more moderate
than some others on that side of the
question. The Speakers gavel cut
him off in the midst of sentence, and
he asked for an extension of time, but
Mr.. Taylor, of Ohio, objected. Mr.,

A WASTE OF TIME.
How the Morrison HTariff Bill Is
Viewed at tho
South.
Tariff Reduction in Favor, but Fruitless
Agitation Condemned, For
Which Reason
The Consideration of the Morrison Bill
Would be Waste of Time,
or Worse.
Viewed From South Carolina.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 2l.-In an
interview with newspaper correspond
ent, Mr.. Dibble, of South Carolina, was
asked his views on the Morrison tariff
bill, and stated them as follows: "The
present agitation of the tariff is the re-
suit OF the outrageous protectiOnist feat
ures OF the present law, enacted by the
Republicans. 1t is the reaction against
iniquitous legislation and the protest
against monopolies. In such reactions
there Is usually danger of going to an OPP
poslte extreme. | am in favor of tariff
reduction-very great reduction-to be
made gradually until a revenue basis is
reached, But am not in favor of fruit
less agitation, and no one dreams that the
Morrison bill, or any other bill for the
reduction OF duties, can pass the Senate
or the President, so that tariff agitation
III Congress now means nothing practical,
but simply an attempt at the impossible.
This, in my Judgment, prejudices the
cause of tariff reform. The postpone
ment OF this question to an off year, when
1t can be calmly considered as an economic
question, is much better than to make it
a bone OF contention between parties and
individuals for partisan and personal
ends. For these reasons think the con-
sideratiOn of the Morrison bill would be
A WASTE OF TIME,
or worse. But if it is taken up | will
vote in the direction of lower duties, for
| believe such reduction is demanded by
the true interests of the country. As to
the division of the Democratic party on
account of the tariff question, the party,
as represented in Congress, is not a
block of wood to be split in two by a
single AK; and as for those who speak
about whipping in members by caucus
action, an effort of this kind, so far as
my observation goes, would be generally
repudiated by the Democratic members.
Such a course would be attributed rather
to desire to whip out rather than to
whip in, and its purpose would be too
apparent to meet with success. We are
not going to turn our lances on one an
other on the eve of battle We leave this
tdf noisy parties outside, who are not
burdened with the responsibility of rep
| resentatiyes.n

TILLER AND M'FADDES.
The Express Robbers Arraigned-Mc-
Fadden's Attempted Suicide.

ST. Louis, Mo, March 2l.-Prentice
Tiller and Geo. H. McFadden, the express
robbers, were booked for a preliminary
examination before Judge Noonan this
morning on charges Of grand larceny
Tiller is accused of stealing $4,000,
while his alleged confederate is charged
with taking nearly twice that much
$4,000. The accusations are preferred
by E. NJ. Morsman, an official of the
United States Express Company. Judging
from the large attendance in
court considerable curiosity is
manifested in the robbers. Judge Jones
and Marshal Mcdonald have charge of
the case for the Express Company, while
the interests of the defense will be guard
ed by j. J Mcbride. The defendants did
not appear in court, the case being con-
tiuued until April +. This proved great
disappointment to the assembled throng.
While the prisoners We're passing back
and forth from the jail to the court cham
Der they were scrutiniZed closely by the
lawyers in the Hobbies.
The continuance was granted on appli-
cation of the defense and the indications
are that the Grand Jury will have taken
the matter out of the jurisdiction of the
Court of Correction by that time.
McFadden, asked as to his health this
morning, replied that he was well, but
that he did not feel like walking. When
told that the newspapers had discredted
the glass-eating story the prisoner said
that he had taken a dose, nevertheless.
1t was inserted in ball of food Nc
Fadden, since his incarceration in jail
here, has admitted that he had spent his
boyhood in Louisville, and that Tiller was
one of his cJmpanions at that time.
