President Cleveland has been devot-
ing himself diligently to the bills which
lave passed Congress and scruJiniling
them with a mind for economy and
justice. On Monday he vetoed fifteen
bills, thirteen being for private pen
ions, and two for public buildings.
The bills for public building are gen
orally grabs OF Congressman to be used
for votes and the private pension bills
are for those whose claims would not be
entitled to recognition under the gener-
al pension law. Pension claim agents,
who get big commissions, lobby these
private steals through Congress aud as
but little attention is devoted TO their
business and as Congressman do not
want to lie considered |ungrareful to
soldiers there is little opposition TO
their passage although most everybody
consider il wrong. 1t is to the interest
Of the country that wehave a President
who Is fearless in his duty toSave these

NEW YORK, May 9.-Mr. Abram S.
Hewitt reached this city yesterday from
Washington to examine in person the
damages done to his library by fire in his
house on Thursday afternoon. Until his
arrival the origin of the fire h ad been in-
explicable. Mr.. Hewitt discovered that
a tinsmith at work on his roof had set his
portable furnace on the top of the chim-
ney containing his library fue. Mr..
Hewitt suspects that a live coal dropped
from the furnace down the flue and caused
the fire.
Gan my literary work for the last
twelve years was in the library" said Mr..
Hewitt, "and all was destroyed. There
was good deal of correspondence rela-
tive to the campaign of 1876, which has
all been destroyed. My library on politi-
cal economy was a very good one, and it
is all gone. Many of the books are un-
obtainabIe nowadays. There were many
French and Spanish books in the collec-
ton and many early books on the subject
