the decline of the previous day. 1t seems
that the death of Mr.. Vanderbilt was not
known on the street till after the board had

but finally they recovered their losses and
closed strong. Chicago wheat closed sso
above the opening and 7ac above the close Of

Senator Logan grew foot higher yesterday
in the estimation of his fellow citizens. He
had more sense than his party, and in mod
est speech rebu1ed the offer of his Republican
colleagues in the senate to put him in place
to which the people had refused to elect him.
He might have added another foot to his stat
ure and made himself the tallest candidate
in his party for the presidential nomination
in 1888 if he had recommended the choice of
a Democratic senator for president pro tenn
pore.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The presidents message is comprehen
sive enough. Nothing within range Of ma
tional possibility has been omitted. Its
proliXity and the unwarranted space de-
voted to discussion of foreign matters are
the most legitimate features for adverse
criticism. In other respects it is a practical
discussion of questions pertaining to the
welfare of the nation. In some of his Opin-
ions the president may not have touched
the popular chord, yet it will be conceded
that he has presented his points clearly and
without attempt at evasion. He is no
straddler and makes no effort to glaze over
any proposition discussed in the mes
sage. The document is remarkable for
its conservatism and will do a
great deal to confirm the confidence
which the people of the country have re-
posed in him as an honest, clear-headed eX-
ecutive, who will administer the government
upon sound business principals. He pro-
poses an Indian policy which will commend
itself to the wisdom of congress. His views
in regard to public land grants are in SYM
pathy with public sentiment. His tariff
recommendations are brief but pointed He
disposes of the whole subject in very few
sentences. and yet does it with such clear
ness and force as to impress his opinions
upon the public mind. 1t is perhaps
with regard to silver coinage that his rec
concentrations will meet with the most an
tagonism from congress. His opponents,
however, will be forced to admit that the
president knows how to WELD sledge- ham,
mer blows in argument, and that he has
made the strongest points in favor of sus-
pending silver coinage that could be made.
Taking it altogether the message compares
favorably with those which have come
from the hands of his predecessors in
Office. While it is not remarkable for
brilliancy it IS full of that good, common
sense which the American people love to
see displayed in high official life.

A BAD SUPERINTENDENT.
Serious Charges Made Against IL
Mail Superintendent.


Mail Superintendent.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. S.--Numerous aft
davits, alleging irregular conduct on the
part of James E. White, superintendent of
the railway mail service, have been received
in this city and will be filed with the post
master general tomorrow. John Fl. Foley,
an employee of the Chicago postoffice, makes
oath that one McGinnis, head postal
clerk on the Kankakee route, had told him
that he (McGinnis) had carried from Chi
cago to Cincinnati in his car, on order from
White, Isaac Rivers and other employees of
the Chicago office. This occurred at the
time of the state election i'll Ohio in 1884.
He says:
WHITE HAD PETS"
and was guilty of favoritsm, and as evil
dence of the fact accuses White and Long
Jones of saving the head of one of their
friends who lost mail sack, which was
afterward robbed. Andrew Reynolds and
j. Lambert, in an affidavit dated Nov. 10,
1885, swear to conversation with Postal
Clerk McGinnis, in which he said in the
fall of 1880 he carried Rivers and thirty
others from Chicago to Indianapolis, and
again to Cincinnati in 1884, always
under orders from White. A.
Green of Waterloo, Ia, an en-
ploye of the railroad mail service,
testifes that one election White stationed
his chief clerk at the door Of the paymast-
er's Office, and as each man received his
pay and left the room the clerk levied a
contribution for campaign purposes. Mr..
Green paid under protest SIS. Affiant also
charges Mr.. White with being absent from
his post OF duty for weeks at time. An
drew Reynolds, an emplye of the mail serv-
ice running on the Burlington road, comes
to the front with a series of charges against
White. He accuses him of drinking and
being intoxicated while on duty, and of
neglecting his duties so much as to impair
the service.
