psoR JOHN MCCULLOUGH.
The Actor Fast Losing Remembrance 81
His Days ON the Stage.

New YORK, August 18.-The Tribune
this morning says: John Mccullough,
in the Bloomingdale Asylum, is gradu--
ally losing all remembrance of his old
days on the stage. Capt; Connor of the
st. James Hotel, his old business man
aser, soss regularly to the, asylum to see
MCCULLOUGH. The captain thinks, the
old actor is losing ground physically, as
we'll as mentally. He has come to think
That he; owns; .Bloomipgdale as a gift
from friends interested in seeing him
happy in his old age. He no longer al
ludes in any way to the stage or, as he
used to do, engagements which he must
start away to fill. Occasionally he wants
his baggage packed up to go to Chicago
or Cleveland, but shortly forgets all
about it and is not surprised or angered
if he finds his orders have not been ex-
ecuted. Sometimes Mccullough, lying
in his room, will burst out in recitatioDs
of poems or bits of the plays in which he
has at different times appeared. But
this is the only feature of his present
condition to connect him with his old
triumphs. When Capt Connor called
last he found Mccullough almost indif
ferent to his, presence; so much so that
it was difficult to determine whether or
not he recognized him. He was in the
mild stupor that will more and more
characterize his disease. He may die in
a month he may live year or two. The
physicians do not think he will live more
than year.

CROOKED WHISKY.
The Trouble at Philadelphia Over the
Peoria Rarrels.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, August 1S.-1h
regard to the recent, seizure of a large
quantity Of whisky shipped to this city
FROM Peoria, ILL.,, which was alleged to
have been put into .fraudullehtly cor
structed barrels with en- intention of de-
fraudiDg the government, it is learned
that an order was received in this
city to-day from Washington di-
recting the release of all the
whisky consigned by Messrs. Woolner,
Brothers, and also that the eonsignments
of the Manhattan Distilling Company
had been released by compromise
whereby the dlstillipg company are to
pay the tax upon one gallon of whisky
in each eighty-three barrels out of 100
shipped by them, with the understand
ing that they would file o claim in the
United States Courts to recover the
extra tax so paid The shipments
of the Great Western Distiffing Com
pany ofZell, Swachbacher & Co. are still
detained pending an Investigation by the
revenue officials, 1t is understood that
there are upwards of 1000 barrels of
whisky which will be affected by this
action of the government, and it is
thought the entire matter will be com
promised and then taken into the
courts. The wholesale liquor men OF
Philadelphia, representing capital of
$50, 600, ,0000, have addressed letter to
the Revenue Collector of this district
concerning the alleged fraudulently con-
structed barrels, claiming that the pack
ages are regulagly made, and informing
him that unless they are permitted to
pursue their business without further in
terruption they will bring action against
the Government for damages sustained.

Business MEN and bankers in the West
are considerably annoyed over the last
order of the Trt lsury Department regulat-
ing the distribution Of standard silver dol
lars. The Salt Lake (Utah) Tribune, COM
menting on the subject, says: Heretofore
any man could get silver dollars delivered
t. any point without freight charges by
APPLYING to any United States mint. By
this last order all that is changed. If a
banker here wants 1000 or 10000 silver
dollars and sends to San Francisco for
them, he has to deposit the amount of the
purchase with the assistant treasurer of
the United States depository, upon
which a certificate of deposit is issued
which must be forwarded to the
Treasurer of the United States, who will,
on its arrival, order the dollars to be for
warded from any point he may elect. At
the present rtts of interest $1,000 is worth
3Si cents day. BY the length of time
now required to get money here through
roundabout channels a man who needs
money fiuds it cheaper to pay express
charges and receive it at once. Discrimi-
nation is made cl ear by the fact that this
only applies to standard dollars. A person
can get all the subsidiary coins he may
please to order direct from the mint. The
result is great annoyance to bankers and
busiuess men,

A STRIKE was yesterday inaugursted by
the street car drivers sgainst what they
deemed an unjust reduction of wages.
That the wages paid are low enough for
the labor performed, there can be no ques-
ton, and the strikers have and will retain
the sympathy and support of the public
80 long as they conduct themselves in such
a way as to merit it. The APPEAL is and
al ways has been the friend of the work
ingman, and has always endeavored to ad-
vance the material interests of the laborer
and guard his rights. But, at the same
time, capital has its rights, which must not
be overlooked, and which must be Just as
closely guarded. The officers of the
Street Railway Company have their eide
of the question SIS well as the drivers,
which is entitled to full consideration,
Nothing eau be accomplished on either
side by arbitrary measures. Let the differ
ences be submitted to arbiIstion, as is
done in other cities, and let the matter be
settled. This must be done at once. The
street car service is a necessity to the city
and the people will not submit to the in
convenience entailed by its stoppsge. In
the meantime the strikers have the ad
vantage-the lie is with them. They
m lst retain this by acting in a rations
manner and within the pale of the law
which will insure ultimate success.

LITERARY NOTES.

"GRANTs Memorial: what shall it be ?"
is discussed in the September number of
the North Americas RevieiC, by Launt
Thompson, Karl Gerhardt, o. L. Warner
and Wilson Mcdonald sculptors; W. ii.
Beard painter; Calvert Vaux end Henry
Van Brunt architects, and Clarence Cook
art critic. This symposium is sure to at
tract wide attention at this time, when the
desire is 30 general to erect monument
to Grant that shall be worthy OF the man,
the nation and American art. The same
number of the Revie,C contains consider
alton of the question, "Shall our National
Banking System be Abolished ?" by
George S. Boutwell,. F. J. Scott. S. Dana
Horton and Edward H. 6. CLARK. "Ouida"
contributes an essay on "The Tendencies
OF English Fiction" and Elizabeth
Stuart Phelps writes on The Great
Psy chical Opportunity" But the most
readable article in the number is ex-Ser-
geant-at-Arms French's "reminiscences of
Famous Americans" which is series of
delightful anecdotes about the famous war
Senators. Mr.. French is writing book OF
these "reminiscences. If it equals this
forestallment in the Rerie'g, it will be one
of the famous works of modern literature.

ST. Quinten opera Company.

The st. Quinten Opera Company ap-
peared at Estival last evening in The
Chimes Of Normandy. Miss St. Quinten, as
"Serpoletie," was the central figure. and
as the Original she well lays claims to
being without superior. Her singing of
the solos "Just Look at This. Just L1ok at
That" and 81 May Be Princess" was
very taking and won repeated piaudits.
Mr.. Henry Molten, as Gree1ashay," sang
and acted his role in way that won the
favor Of the audience. Henry Ratten-
berry, as the Marquis De Corneville," !"
sang the pant as well as could have been
desired Mr.. Wilson, as "Gaapard, the
Miser," made all out of the character pos
sible, and the chorus was strong, particu-
larly the males. Tonight they repeat the
Chimes and may expect large attendance.
The street-car strike kept great number
of people away last evening. Ample ar.
rangements have been made, should the
strike continue, with The bus line, which
will run buses every fifteen minutes
from the corner of Madison and Mair
streets; fare, 10 cents each way.
