the comments of the latter in his speech of
the I'd inst. relative to Mr.. Montgomery's
position on the school question. In his
letter Mr.. Montgomery says:

bent on you not TO confine yourself to object

many things which / never said at any time
nor in any place. If the sentiments con-
tanned in the pamphlet sent you had in your
opinion constituted a sufficient objection to
the confirmation OF my appointment you
could scarcely have deemed il necessary
to supplement the objection by series
of quotations from false and anonymous
pamphlet. Neither could you have thought

NEW YORK. March 6.-The crowds

Mounted police patTollel the center of the
street. and at p. IN. Supt. Murray and
Police Commissioner French drove to the
stable. At 2:30 car started on its trip
amid Kisses and yells and jeers by the strik-
erS and their friends on the sidewalks.
Chief of Police Murray and Inspector
Steers marched in front of the ear,
which had as passengers the report
ers and representatives of the road.
Following the car tramped 120 policemen
and after them in carriages came Jacob
Sharp, Supt. McLane and other directors
of the road. At each avenue wagons and
trucks were held in check until the pro
cession had passed. 1.-THE police rushed at a
throng at Tenth avenue for riotous demon

him and was emphatic in his declaration
that he would stand by the Missouri Of

that Vice President HoXie has lived up to the
contract entered into year ago with the
Knights of Labor and says the latter had
no cause for striking. The governor was
anxious that this information should be
conveyed to the strikers, and said that
should the trouble continue he would prob

nothing whatever is doing, and from the
fact that General Superintendent Sibley is
making no attempt to send out freight
trains il is thought that the company will
pursue the policy of abandoning all trains
and suspend business in every department
except passenger traffic.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The death of
Mrs. Hawley. wife of the senator from Con-
neeticut, suggests the remark that she was
one OF the few ladies in Washington who
took close personal interest in politics.
following the events of the day, step by
step, rs they transpired. You can count
on the fingers of your two hands all of the
ladies, wives of statesmen, who care for
the political complications and machinery
which occupy most of the time and atten-
tiOn OF their husbands. Whether it be be-
cause the ladies have no part in politics by
vote or otherwise. or because their minds
are not intended for this sort Of stuff is un-
certain. Any way. it is fact that
very lew OF them follow the proceedings i'm
congress or in national politics. Mrs. Hawey
was notable exception to the rule. She
was as well posted on political matters as
the average congressman and was as famil-
lar with the details of her husbands work
IN and out of congress as was the general
himself. She attended personally to the
READING AND AMENDMENT
OF MS correspondence, making up the pen
sion cases that came 10 him, following the
political debates in congress, and taking a
keen personal interest in the proceedings
of party and congressional work step by
step as they came. There are few Others
like her. Mrs. Morrison, for instance,
watches the course of public affairs day by
day, studies the tariff and other party queS-
tiOnS, and is as thoroughly posted as her
husband. A year or two ago she asked q
friend one day to loan her a certain work
of two volumes on the tariff, which
he did with the thought that
she would find them very
dry reading. To his surprise and
delight lie found traces of the work all
through the very next tariff speech of Mr.
Morrison. Mrs. Logan is a close student of
politics. She can discuss public men and
measures with as much grace and judgment.
She can entertain house full of callers,
and that is saying n good deal, for there is
no woman in Washington who is quite her
equal in this latter capacity. There are a
few other cases of this kind, but they are
extremely few. As a rule the close rela-
tions to politics which even the wives of
statesmen occupy does not interest them in
the subject.

NEW YORK, March 6.-The senate COM
mittee on railroads continued its inquiry
into the affairs OF the Broadway surface
railroad to-day. The names of several wit
nesses were called, but they were not pres
ent. S. B. A. Vance, who was one of the
commissioners appointed by the supreme
court to determine whether railroad should
be built on Broadway, testified that he had
been acquainted with Sharp for a long
time. He was formerly stockholder in
Mr.. Sharp'S Twenty-third street railroad,
but had disposed of his holdings before the
date of his appointment as a commissioner,

Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March EN- spite of the
Indignation of the so-called old-time Demo-
Gratis, resident here, over Matthews ap-
pointment as Fred Douglass successor, the
president goes on his way without any
apparent concern as to how his acts are
received. 1t is said by one who claims
to know that he is so we'll salts
fed over his message to the senate. that
he does not seem to care for the passing
breeze of opposition in his LATEST important
district appointment. He cOngratulates
himself that he has been a good strategist,
and has gotten ahead of the senators in
presenting his view of the case to the peo-
pie. He hears nothing but praise for what
he has done. He is perfectly Indifferent
about questions of violating tradition and
precedent. He therefore cares nothing
for that part of the criticism which
has been made upon his message. Senators
and members do not go to the White house
as they used TO. Every one here is Curl
Gus to see how many senators and members
will go to the regular congressional recep-
ton, which is to be given at the White
house next Friday night. AT the last re-
ception there were exactly four senators
present. AID less than one dozen members.
1t is reasonable to suppose that at reecep-
ton given i'm their honor there will be a
larger number of them present.
The senators and members think that
they should be invited by card. They will
not be invited that way. The only way
they have been invited to these receptions
has been through the newspapers. Even
for their special reception they will have no
other evidence of the presidents wish to
see him than this notice in the papers.
Some of the senators and members may see
this notice and some may not. But the in
dications are that not many will go.

A silver DRV.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-Immediately
upon assembling the house went into COM
mittee of the whole on the state of the
Union. Mr.. Millard of New York spok e
on the silver question. Some legislation,
he said, was needed to make gold and silver
equal in value and maintain that equality.
An International ratio was needed. The
free coinage of silver would bring nothing
but want and misery to the homes and fire :
sides of the American people. Mr.. Fun
ston of Kansas made a speech in opposition
to the suspension of silver coinage. Mr..
McCreaTy of Kentucky took the same view,
as did Messrs. Lanham of Texas, Rowell of
Illinois. LaifoOn of Kentucky, Peel of
Arkansas. LeFevre of Ohio. Glass of Ten
nessee and FOote of Montana. The COM
mittee then rose and the house adjourned.

AyoIuntary Move,

PHILADELPHIA, March 6.-The Peoples
Passenger Railway company of this city this
afternoon decided TO reduce the hours of
labor of their employees to twelve. and to
fix the rate of pay at S1.75 per day to apply
uniformly to both conductors and drivers.
The conductors are now receiving So and
the drivers S1.75 per day, but have not made
full time. Under the new arrangement
they will make full time. The employees
have accepted the proposition and are
jubilent over the voluntary concession of
their employees. The move of the Peoples
line it is thought will result in concessions
on the part of all the other street railway
lines in the city.
