Insane Mothers Deed.

New YORK, Nov. ia poorly-clad
woman with two small children presented
herself at the Brooklyn nursery yesterday
and begged to be taken in. as she and her
children were in starving condition. She
was admitted, and gave her name as Mrs.
johnson. This morning when one of the
attendants looked into Mrs. Johnson's room
she saw her in the act of suffocating the
elder child. The attendant seized her and
took the pillows off the little one, who had
become unconscious. Doctors were sent
for, who restored the child to conscious
ness. Mrs. johnson had stuffed the child's
mouth with rags, held her nose and placed
pillow over her head. The baby was ly-
ing dead Oh the bed. having been suffocated
in the same way. Mrs. johnson is thought
to be out of her head.

members to follow certain line Of action,
the Democratic minority will be unable to
accomplish anything in the way of con-
firmations that the Republicans do not
agree to. Just what proportion, or class of
cases the Republicans will permit to go
through unchallenged, is not yet determined.
1t is to map out a line Of action in this re-

can be gathered from among the senators
as they come in it is believed that there will
be larger share of cases put under party
ban than was at first believed. The Re-
publicans are evidently determined to do all
they can to annoy and worry President
Cleveland. This sort of thing they con-
slider legitimate warfare. Wherever the
tenure-o office test can be successfully aD-
piled, OF where the character, political or
personal, of appointees can be attacked,
there will probably be war.

That TabOoed Topic.

Special to the GLOBE.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The presidents
order excluding office-seekers from the
White house has been very effective. The
number of callers requesting private inter
views is reduced to minimum, and the
president gets much more time to himself.
Public men who call on regular days are
not questioned by the doorkeepers or re-
fused admittance. but they understand they
must restrict their conversation to business
matters, and that any reference to appoint
mentS would be extremely distasteful to the
president, and would injure rather than ad-
vance their objects. Some have been dis
courteous enough to violate their privileges,
but they have gained nothing by so doing.
Generally senators and representatives have
respected the presidents wishes, and left
the question of the Offices outside. or, when
they have done so, by diplomatic hints,
speaking more freely only as they felt the
presidents interest had been awakened.
