WILSON, N. c., July 4.-Willie Sans,

has frequently prattled about it and asked
many questions as to how the child was got
into the coffin and when it would come ont.
To-day he took his little brother to the

and after Scooping out grave in the sand
by small brook, he placed the little infant
i'll a box which he had previously carried

PRAYER and singing hymn. After he had
hlled the tiny grave he stamped on it, and
slowly went back home and told his mother
of his deed, of which he seemed very

Arthur's little baby funeral" The terrified
mother fastened to the spot, the grave was
reopened and the infant found dead, with
its right arm broken and skull crushed.

Auditor Browns Tart Reply.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
DEs MONIES, July Auditor Brown
has replied point by point to the conditions
recently stated by Gov. Sherman for his
restoration to office. The auditor offers to
comply in all points except covering the
fees received for bank examinations into
the state treasury. On this point he says:
L decline to pay any money into the state
treasury. First, because L have no money
that belongs to the state; second, if 1
should pay money in l could not get
it out again, as the state cannot be sued:
third, because that would defeat a judicial
investigation of this whole matter. which.
to Inc, is very desirable. You have
charged me with Withholding public funds:
in a word, with being a defaulter. Were
it not for the position you occupy as gov
ernor of the state, such charge would
have little weight with the public, but
coming from the governor, many may
have been deceived thereby and Will doubt
less believe that L have done wrong until
such a time as / can procure hearing in
court and show to the contrary. / have tried
every means in my power for the last six
months to induce you TO bring a suit for the
amount you claim to be due the state from
me. 1 deposited larger amount, that /
understood you to claim, in the bank sub
ject TO such suit, but nothing would in
duce you to bring it. 1t is tolerably safe to
predict that the governor will not restore
Brown on this showing, and the latter must
look to his quo warranto on Sherman's sue
cesSor for relief. His letter is very acid.

Trying to work Cleveland.

Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, July A. Oleveland's in
duction into a federal Ofise brought to
Washington a number of menwho formerly
lived in Buffalo, and who are now engaged
in making living more or less precariOuS
upon that fact. These men claim to have

the president and invariably give the seek

Many a poor devil who came
here with great hopes and snail backing has
poured barrels of whisky into the throats of
these thirsty eX-BuffaloniaTS and has at
last gone home without money, Office or
hopes. There is another class of ex-Buffa-
lonianS, who simply haunt the hotels and
talk of their influence at the White house.
They do not play for drinks, but come here
simply to aid a friend or two and 10 give
the president little friendly advice in the
matter of selecting appontees. among the
latter is an eX-judge of the superior court Of
Buffalo, now practicing law in Chi
cago, who has been here sew
eral weeks. This gentleman asserts
positively that he desires nothing forshin-
self, which is fortunate for him. bat he
makes daily visits 10 the White house In
the interest Of some friend or other. He
holds daily levees in the lobby of Wizards
hotel, and from his conversation at these
meetings one would infer that he is the sue
eessor to the kitchencabinet which fiourished
under former administrations. A careful
examination of the presidents appoint
ments, and a comparis0s with the predie-
tions of these gentlemen, fail TO show that
the Buffalo influence" has had any effect
