The BOOdler Alderman Sentenced to Seven Years,

Ex-Alderman McQuade of New York was
sentenced on Monday the goth inst, to
seven years in the State Prison. In pro-
nouncing the sentence the judge said: Ar
thur j. McQuade, you have been fairly and
justly convicted of bribery. You were
elected to perform a public duty and
trust. Instead OF doing SO you violated
that trust. Your character as a busi-
ness man, citizen, father and hus-
band is good. l have sympathy with your
wife and children. You should have consid.
cred them before you did wrong. You did
not add to the crime OF which you have
been convicted what Jaehne did, by taking
the stand and committing perjury. have
reason to believe that you received as
much money as Duffy did-$1O, 600. That
money is not yours; it is not the property
of your family. If it is left with them it
will work the inevitable result OF ill-gotten
gain. l would advise you to give up and
pay to the city the money which you re-
teived, and have no doubt it would work
to your benefit. The sentence of the court
is that you be confined in state prison at
hard labor for q term OF seven years. and
that you pay q fine OF S., 600.

HOME LIFE OF LOGAN.
GAVE WAY TO HIS WIFE


WASHINGTON. Special Telegram, Dec. 26-
Gen. Logan's home life here in Washington
has generally been of the pleasantest char
acter. For the first ten years of his SEN
atorial life he1e he lived at boarding house,
as his means were such that he could not
afford to take a suitable house and entertain
as became a senator OF his prominence.
For four or five years previ-
GUS to his last election he
and Mrs Logan occupied suite
of room at well known house on Twelfth
street There were among other guests sew
eral congressmen's daughters, and the kind
ness of the general and Mrs Logan to these
young people are frequently spoken
Of Mrs Logan took many of them
under har care and initiated them into
Washington life carefully and and with dis
cretion She was idolized by all the young
girls with whom she came in contact As a
consequence Of this boarding house expert
euce the home life of the senator
and Mrs. Logan has been somewhat
well known to all their friends and
the whole history of the generals success in
life is attributed to their mutual respect for
and reliance upon each other. In all things
Gen Logan gave way to his wife. She with
him was always supreme, and no matter
how dogged and bitter his mood, word
from her would quiet him in moment
Robert o. Morehead OF Pennsylvania,
convicted of violation OF the postal laws
and sentenced to two years imprisonment,
has been pardoned by the president, to
take effect Feb. 20, 1887, by which date
he will have served one-half OF his term.
The president has declined to interfere in
the case OF James o. r. Burnside, charged
with defrauding the government while dis

The pope, receiving Christmas congratu-
lations from the college OF cardinals, spoke
at some length oi the position OF the
church in Italy. He protested against the
anti-clerica al movement which ia being car
ried on in the country and said: The holy
see was now despoiled OF the last remnants
OF it's patrimony. The only liberty left to
him was that held by the Roman pontiifs
in the earliest ages. The Italian govern
ment had assisted the laity in unduly in.
terfering with the administration OF the
church, had expelled religious bodies and
tolerated an organized hostility against
the Vatican. As the head OF the church he
must continue to protest against the posi-

TO RESIST AT EVERY POINT.

Activity of the National Telephone
League at Indianapolis, Ind.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, March %. - The
National Telephone League OF Boston,
Mass, is flooding this city with circulars
calling attention TO the fact that the league
is an organization of citizens determined
to resist telephone monopoly at every
point; further, that there is reason
to believe that the threatened
withdrawal Of telephone service from
this State on the plea Of inabil-
ity TO operate under the Williams
bill, is really intended to influence legis-
lation in other States by preventing the
passage of bills OF similar import, more
particularly in Iowa, New York, New
jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts,.
Accompanying the circulars are petitions
addressed TO the United States Senate and
House OF Representatives., asking the rep
resentatives Of Indiana in those bodies to
make inquiry whether the telephone SER
vice rendered by the American Bell Tele-
phone Company or its agents is being dis
continued in whole or in part in this State
or in any other State for the purpose of in
fiTencIng legislative or judicial action;
also, whether such discontinuance for
such purpose is the result OF com bination
between such telephone companies.
These petitions are now being distributed
and, so far as heard from, are receiving
many signatures.

Grown Tired Of the Fruitless Oppnsi-
tim to the Presidents Nominattons.
WASHINGTON, March 2l.-There is
every probability that thi, week will see
the eEd Of the present deadlock between
the Senate and the President. The indi-
cations OF the past few days point to the
early retirement of the Senate from the
struggle and the general reporting Of
nominations. 1t Will be reached through
the defeat of the Edmunds resolutions.
These have been so severely handled in
the debate of the last two weeks that even
the partisan supporters Of Mr. Edmunds
Can find no excuse for longer defending
them. The debate will be practically
completed before the end of this week IS
reached. Though several Senators have
indicated their intention to be heard, there
is little temptation for Senatorial elo-
quence to be wasted upon empty galleries
and empty Senatorial chairs.
1t is now known that half dozen Re-
publican Senators are tired of the whole
business and have expressed themselves
taVOrably to the tabling the resolutions.
The breakdown OF the Finance Committee
will be followed by other committees than
the judiciary. over which Mr.. Ed
munds presides, and the majority Will
thus gradually squrm out Of the false pO-
sitiOn in which they have been placed. 1t
comes very hard, but Senators begin to
realize that it must be done sooner or
later. The passage or defeat Of the Ed
mudds resolutions is an immaterial mat
Ter. IL will chaoge nothing to adopt them.
'rbe real deadlock is in the combinations
or nOu-cOn6rmatiOns The President has
thrown that respOnsi bility on the Senate.
IL the administration Of the laws suffers
because of Senatorial inaction it will be
difficult for the Senate to shift the blame
back upon the President
