THE PRESS OF INDIA.

Lord Dufferin, in reply to teso-
luton passed by the Native Press
Association of the Northwest Pro-
vinces and Oudh offering their loyal
support to the Government in the
present crisis, has, through Mr..
Mackenzie Wallace, his private
secretary, written to the effect that
he (Lord Dufferin) is a sincere
friend of the Native Press Of India,
which he regards as essential to the
well-being and progress of the
nation, and as capable of rendering
the greatest services to the Govern
ment and the people. His Excel
lency is, Mr.. Wallace states, an at
tentive reader of the native journals,
regarding them as the legitimate
channels through which an indepen-
dent native public opinion expresses
the wants and wishes of the COM
munity at large, and Lord Dufferin
desires in the most earnest terms he
can command to thank the native
Press for their loyal offer of support.
Those who have resided long in India
know full well the Importance of cul-
tivating friendly feelings with the
native Press, especially in Upper
India, where the races are much
more manly than in Bengal, and
Lucknow, the capital of Oudh, from
which these resolutions come, was
one of the two great centres of the
mutiny, as well as the cradle of the
Indian army, a great proportion of
the soldiers being recruited from that
province. Although the circulation
of the native Press may be small,
the number of people on an average
to whom each copy is read is enor-
nous; in some cases, owing to the
poverty and in mauy cases the pen
uriousness of the people, one copy
serving for several hundred hearers,
if not readers, an assemblage of
possibly absolutely illiterate people
being gathered round the good
scholar of the village, who is able to
read and dilate upon the news, and
possibly add absolute fictions to the
narrative. The cultivation of
friendly feeling among those amongst
whom this news circulates is thus of
supreme Importance, and the native
Press will be exceedingly proud that
the Lord Sahib Governor G eneral
pays so much attention to their hum
BILE productions.

A Business.Like Omceholder.

Washington Special to the St Louis Globe Democrat
A Congressman who visited Mr. Cleveland
recently and had something to talk about be-
sides the cabinet, says the Presidentelect fell
into chatty mood and became quite entertain
ing. The conversation turned upon the volum-
inous correspondence received since the cleo
ton, and Mr.. Cleveland remarked that out of
thousands of letters which had come to him in
relation to Offices, there was one which he
really felt Like answering. Said he: '"rhat one
was from clerk in q department at Washing
ton. He wrote saying that he was republi-
can, had always voted the ticket, and had
worked hard for the election of Mr.. Blaine.
Some time ago, not anticipating any change in
the politics OF the administration, he had
bought house and lot in Washington On
which he had thus far made two payments.
The third was about due, and he had the
money saved to meet 1t. Now If changes were
to be made and he knew he was going to lose
his place, he preferred to keep the money and
had made. What he was holding would enable
him to maintain his family while he looked
around and found something to do. II, how
ever, he was not to be disturbed, he wanted to
meet the payment and not jeOPardize the prop
erty. That was the situation he was in. He
would like to know what to do about it."

like sitting down and writing that fellow he

A Sequel to the AckIen Scandal.

BRIEF HONEYMOON OF A BALTIMORE BACHELOR
WHO MARRIED A WASHINGTON WIDOW.
A special dispatch to the philadelphia Press
from Baltimore, February IS, says: Last fall
Mr.. Eugene Belt, a wealthy citizen Of Baltimore,
was married here in great style to beautiful
widow, whose loveliness was the talk of large
social circle. Mr.. Belt was about fifty years old
and had never been married before. The wife
was young well as beautiful, and while the
disparity in their ages was marked, yet no one
thought their honeymoon would end as soon as
it has After the wedding tour they returned
here, took up their residence in his house. on
Charles street, and gave q big reception, which
was one of the leading social events of the sea-
son. A few weeks ago MIR. and Mrs. Belt set out
for New Orleans, and the neighbors We're treated
to a surprise q few days later, when Mr.. Belt re-
turned alone. 1t soon leaked out that he had
intentionally left his wife behind.
While in New Orleans he received letters that
convinced him that his wife, who was the widow
Godfrey, was the woman whose name was con-
nected with the scandal in which congressman
Ackien figured in Washington in 1873. This
and other allegations made Mr.. Belt decide to
leave her. She has now returned to this city
several efforts to enter his house, but the door
has been each time shut in her face. Both par
ties have engaged counsel and the case is ex-
pected to come into court tomorrow. Mrs. Belt
will probably enter suit for support. Her first
husband, Godfrey, was once United States con-
sui to Mexico, and was states attorney at San
Francisco. Congressman Willis married her
sister and will assist her In her case.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
A Baltimore dispatch to the New York Sun
says that Mrs. Belt met ex- Congressman Acklen
in New Orleans, and that "Mr. Belt was an
noyed at this circumstance, and the SEQUEL was
leaving Mrs. Belt behind him. He consulted O
lawyer, Col Charles Marshal, of this city, and
once. Mrs. Belt returned north and went to
the home of her sister, Mrs. Benjamin Willis, OF
New York. Family friends have been endeaS-
or1ng to bring about q compromise, but as yet
Mr.. Belt Is unrelenting.

TRANSMITTING ALARMS EXPLAINED THE
IMPERFECTIoNS OF AIR LINE SYSTEMS
Mr.. Henry r. Miles, general superintendent
of the fire alarm telegraph system OF the Dis

sioners in reply to the statements contained in
the recent letter of Chief Engineer Cronin, as
to alleged Irregularities In the workings of the

plants OF Mr.. Cronin, and explains the causes
of the delay As to a failure to give alarm

question had just previously been disabled by

when an accident occurred on the B. and o.
railroad, it can scarcely be called failure. On
the 9th Of september. he says, while the bat
teries were being replenished, the operator on
Slty dld fail 10 get an alarm and was censured
for carelessness. Luckily the fire was slight
and no damage ensued. In the matter of THE
STAR office fire he repeats that the sole cause of
failure to get correct alarm on the first effort
was cross between an electric light wire, tele-
phone wires and the fire alarm wire on which
box Isl Is located-an accident which could
have been prevented. The very slight inter
ruption in the alarm of February 1st was
caused by the high wind, which was blowing at
the time.
He states that no airline system can be con-
structed SO as TO be free from atmospheric and
other serious disturbances. After discussing
the working OF the system put into operation
alarms have been transmitted, and, with the
exception of the loss of time at the recent STAR
office fire. about 8 minutes is the only apprec-
able loss of time in all that great number of
alarms. 1t is true that now and then, in conse-

A CONGREGATIONS AFFECTED BY THE PROPOSED
PURCHASE OF A POST OFFICE SITE.
If the square west of the General Post Office
building is bought as a site for the city post
office and for the use of the department. the
members of the 9th street NJ. p. church will
have to find new place of worship. The pro-
posed purchase Is not opposed by the members
of the church. for their present location In the
midst of business houses has for many years
been regarded by them as being unsuitable for
q church. The editor of the Methodist Protestant
Rev. DIR. Drnkhouse, who was stationed here in
1868 and from 1868 to 1 S14, suggests that if
the square is taken by the government the con-
gregation can build a church in the northern or
northwest section of the city more convenient
to the membership. There has been a sugges-
tion made, and favorably received by some
that with the amount OF S50,435 assessed on
the property two churches may be erected, one
IN North Washington and one in South
Washington. This congregation was organized
in 1888, and worshiped I'm frame building On
the west side of 18th street. between q and II
streets, taking the name of the Tabernacle until
1886, when the name of Washington was
adopted. A church was built upon the present
location in 1912, since which time it has been
known as the 9th street NJ p. church.
