Grand Army Commander Burdette
reports that for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1856, there were issued 81 1872
pension certificates; that for the
month of June alone there were issued
1895 certificates, and that for the
same fiscal year the payments were
sos, IN $50. The new names added to
the rolls foot up 43, l66, of which 23I4
were reservations. Certainly, Uncle
Sam takes pretty good care of his boys.

1t can no longer be claimed that the
prohibition party is the party of but
a single idea. The Caledonia county
branch of the party have already en-
dorsed the woman's suffrage move
ment and can claim that they at least
have two strings to their political bow.
We incline to the opinion that the
single issue of prohibition will give
them enough to do for the present.

WASHINGTON, July 2.-President Cleve'
land sent to the House to-day message
vetoing another pension bill, granting PEN
sion to William Boone. Boone it seems was
taken prisoner in November, 1872, and
paroled. During his parole he took part in
the Fourth of July celebration in 1868 at
his home in Aurora, Ill, and while SO en-
gagged was terribly injured by the discharge
of cannon. Boone is a poor man and has
wife and children. The President in dis
approving this bill says he is utterly unable
to discover any relation between this Fourth
of July accident and the military service or
any reason why if pension is granted to
Boone there should not also be pension
granted to any of his companions who
CHANGED to be injured at the same time. The
President concludes with this general obser-
walton on private pension legislation: "a
disabled man and wife and family in need
are objects which appeal to the sympathy and
charitable feelings of any decent man. But
it seems to me that it by no means follows
that those entrusted with the peoples bust
ness and the expenditure of the peoples
money are justified in SO executing the pen
sion laws as that they shall fur
nish means of relief in every case of dis
tress or hardship"

THE ELECTIONS IN ENGLAND.

Tories and UniOnists Showing Up
Well in the First Returns-Electors
Careless About Going to the Polls.
LONDON, July 2.-The chief feature of to-
days polling is the large number of electors
who have abstained from voting. In nearly
every constituency heard rom the number
of votes falls far below that of last Novem-
ber The Liberals have won seats for East
Leeds, Southwest Manchester, North Man
chester and the Exchange division of Liver
pool. The Tories have won seats at South
Stafford, West Stafford, Hereford, Hastings,
Falmouth and South Bristol, a net gain of
two seats The Nationalist candidate at
Newcastle under-Lyme retains his in spite of
tremendous efforts to defeat him, and the
Unionist candidate at Bristol Is equally sue
cessful Jacob Bright, brother of John
Bright and a Gladstonian, is elected for
Manchester and Sir Thomas Brassey, Glad
stonian, who left Hastings to contest one OF
the Liverpool seats, is defeated. At Stockport
the vote stands: Jennings, Tory, 4,703i
Gedge, Tory, 1895; Leigh, Liberal, 4, 1874;
Davey, Liberal, 1888. In the west division
of Leeds Herbert Gladstone received 5,226
votes against 6, 100 last fall, and Williams
1870. It is feared that to days polling will
have depressing effect upon the Liberals.

FLENn1GToN, N. J., July 2.-David Walsh,
the victim of the ice cream poisoning at the
Paterson picnic, was buried to-day. There
was great crowd present and the services
were impressive. In the audience were
seventy-fve of the sufferers from poison.
Many of them still look very i'll. The man
who is under suspicion has not yet been ar
rested. Though the belief in his guilt is al
most universal there is reluctance to move
in the matter until the proof is stronger.
There is a difference of opinion among the
several physicians who have investigated the
matter as to the nature of the poison. Some
contend that the theory of some poisonous
germ being developed in the milk is sufi-
eient to account for the symptoms. This is
secuted by most of the doctors, but will be
doubtless utilized in the defense of any per-
son arrested for causing Walsh's death.

GENERAL TRADE QUIET

hut a Hopeful Feeling For a Good
Autumn Business.
NEW YORK, July Especial kilograms to
Bradstreet's this week, which reported gen.
eral trade as seasonably quiet and without
special feature, concur in mentioning a very
hopeful feeling among merchants as to the
outlook for the autumn. The interest of
wool has receded and prices are held up. The
clip east of the Mississippi has been cleared
up, though more largely by spectators than
by manufacturers, prices having risen from
one to three cents per pound within ten days.
The tone of the dry goods market is encour
aging, all advances in cotton goods having
been we'll maintained and stocks being light.
The pigsiron is unchanged. A good deal of
southern iron has been sold. The customary
stoppage of iron mills during the coming
month promises to decrease con-
sumption. Some furnaces have blown out.
Mill irons are dull. Wheat prospects aside
from Wisconsin and Minnesota are for fair
harvest. Estimates vary from 435, 000, 900
to 465, 0O0, 900 bushels. The foreign wheat
prospects are less favorable, particularly in
India. Bradstreet's reports of stocks of
wheat east of the Rockies July 1 aggregate
35, DOC, 900 bushels against Is, DOC, 600 three
months ago. On the Pacific coast G, 000, 600
against 10,000,000 bushels April 1. Brad
streets July cotton report shows that heavy
1ains have inj ured the growing crop SO that
the condition may be classed as fair only
against good one year ago.

Five of The Carl Sahm Gang Given
Years at Hard Labor.


NEW YORK, July 2.-The Thesis boycott
| rers were before Judge Barrett in the court
of oyer and terminer to-day for sentence.
Paul Wilsig was sentenced to two years and
ten months at hard labor. Hans Holdorf
received the same sentence. Michael Strob
and Rosenberg each got one year and six
months. Dan Danhousen, who was more
violent than any of the others, was sentenced
to three years and eight months at hard
labor.
After sentencing the five Thesis boycotters
Judge Barrett called the cases of the sixteen
Bohemians indicted for boycotting Mrs.
Landgraff, the baker. Lawyer Herman, their
counsel, asked for an adjournment, present.
ing an affidavit in support of the motion.
Judge Barrett asked Herman if it was true
that the boycott was still being waged. Her
man replied that he had urged his clients to
let the woman alone and he supposed they
had done SO. Assistant District Attorney
Fellows addressed the court, declaring that
the boycott was still in force and that Mrs.
Landgraff's receipts yesterday were only
eighty cents, whereas before the boycott she
required two wagons to supply her custo-
mers Judge Barrett said he would grant an
adjournment until Wednesday. He would
avoid any shadow of oppression against the
men though they were accused of depressing
