The failure of Cleveland to express
any sympathy with the Charleston suf-
ferers is beginning to bear fruit. The
fruit is green and immature as yet, but
will ripen into good harvest before
1888. The ingram selfishness of the
chief executive of this nation has often
been remarked, and this gross exhibition
of it has very unpleasantly reminded the
nation offormer charges of heartlessness
which have never been oOndoned. "The
mistakes of Grover" would find fitting
illustration under Ingersoll's graphic
pen. Col. Bob might render his oOun-
try Illustrious service by such volume.

there is an open revolt in Bulgaria
against the PRONUNCIATION 9th Russian
circular, which is dubbed "The Cars
Ten Commandments" At Phillipopolis
the authorities refused to placard the
telegram. At sofia the pacards were
torn down, and when Gen. Kaulbars re-
mOnstrated,he was informed by the Bull
garian government that they could not
hold themselves responsible for the eff
feet Of SO inflammatory a document.
The temper of Bulgaria is exceedingly
irritable and some overt act may occur
at any hour that would precipitate hos
tilities, although it is evident Russia is
not anxious TO take the decisive step. 1t
may be that the Russian bear is only
waiting for his victim to make the first
move. Austria's attitude and the known
sympathy Of England very materially
stiflen the back bone of the Bulgarian
government.

The Nominee For IA Wisconsin Postmaster
ship brought Face to Face With IA Charge
of Embezzlins S3O.OO9.
BERLIN, Wis, May 18.-D. L. Hark--
ness, recently nominated for postmaster
of this city in place of G. j. Thomas, has
been arrested on charge of embezzle--
ment. For number of years Hardness,
with Joseph Yates, DR.. Dodson and X. J.
Reese conducted large WOODEN mill un-
der the firm name of ID. l.. Hardness & Co..
Hardness had the entire control of buSi-
ness, and four years ago the mill was
closed up. It is now rumOred that lIark-
ness borrowed money To an amount of
over $50, ZOO, signing the firms name to
the note. Most of this money, it is alleged,
he used for his own benefit. Hence his
arrest. His friends are Indignant, and
protest that the move Is mainly political.
The complaints alleSe that the delay in
securing the warrant is due to the almost
inextricablc tangle in which the books of
the firm were found, and that they are
just NOW able to get them into shape.
The high standing of all parties con-
cerncd has aroused much feeling. In
the meantime the old postmaster holds
over, as Hardness can not qualify until
the present charges are laid ut rest. This.
his friends say, can be done.

OlSCREDITED.

Brooks Alleged Statement Looked rpors
As Piece of ;eportorial Imagination.
ST. Louis, May l9.-MaNweirs alleged
confession is generally considered to be
nothing more than guesS-wOrk on the
part of an Overzealous reporter. When.
Maxwell was brought back from Auck.
land he talked freely with a newspaper
reporter here, and introduced into con-
versation an hypothetical case, asking
what would he the legal consequences of
a man acting in the capacity of a phySi--
clan, killing his patient by an
overdose of chlorofOrm through an
error of Judgment. The interview was
published ut the time and was at once
denied by Maxwell. The So-called con-
fesSiOn now published is evidently based
on that interview, and is probably fair
guess ut what the defense will be.
When asked if the interview was cor
rect, Maxwell simply replied that he was,
not talking to newspaper men on the sub
ject of his defense, and that he would
not contradict or admit any statement the
newspapers saw fit to publish. MaXwelrs
lawyers ridicule the story. They say that
no such confession was made by Max
well. and that their line of defense will
not be made known until the proper time
arrives during the trial.

The young couple had lived together
for some time, but Scheyer gave up the
connection year ago, when his in
amOrata entered suit against him for
large damages for breach of promise of
marriage and betrayal. The action was
partly heard in the Superior Court last
week, but 4 compromise was entered into
by defendant paying considerable sum
10 plaintiff to satisfy her, and the case
was withdrawn.
The reason assigned by the girl for try

ton 10 the local press for publication,
and had refused 10 Withdraw it. The
