Annie muldoon,s Fate.

The rising tide OF the Delaware
washed against the logs of Willow
Street Dock, Philadelphia, on Tuesday
morning the body Of . woman. The
police saw 1t just at daylight, and It
was taken to the morRue, where several
hours later two genteel young women
recognized 1t as the corpse of their
mother, and wept over 1t. She was
Annie Muldoop, and her death is .
mystery. She was last seen alive on
Monday afternoon at A O'Clock, for that
was the time Mrs. Anderson, one of her
married daughters, left her on the
corner of Front and Vine streets.
Mrs. Anderson, her mother and q
mutual friend left her house, ct 977
Leithgow street, early Monday after
noon, Mrs. Muldoon Wishing to answer
\ an advertisement OF the Home Mission
Employ msnt Agency, 6S3 Arch street
| for o domestic. When they reached
there the agent directed them TO the to.
bacco store Of Thomas ]. Pinto, No.
Vine street. The proprietor at thai
place told Mrs. Muldoon that Mrs. K
W. Browning, Of Pea Shore, N. j.
wanted domestic and that she woult
be In town on Saturday. When the,
left the store Mrs. Muldoon told he
daughter and friend that she would CON

With this understanding they left heI
Mrs. Anderson expecting TO meet her a
her sisters yesterday morning. Sh

Iscriptural Regard for Money.

The Rev. Sam Jones, whatever HIS
other characteristics, has q truly Scrip
tural regard for money. II he is cor
rectly reported, he says: 81 have no
use whatever for money; have all the
money 1 want. Ny needs are supplied
bountifully. My family is comfortable
and happy, and can't see what on
earth I would do with money II 1 had
1t. A couple of hundred dollars in the
bank IL an abundance, and is all I
have. As long as q man has plenty for
his wife and children and himself he
ought to be contented. I don't think
the Lord sent me out into the world to
make money; but He did send me ont
into the world to do good. As far as
my wife Is concerned, my life is insur-
cd for $l2, 900 the interest on which,
when i am gone, will be enough to keep
her, and IS for my children, don't
want to leave them 81. If tney are of
any account they won't need It; IL they
are no good, money would be curse to
them"

WASHINGTON LETTER
From our Regu lar Correspondent.


WASHINGTON, April 28, 1886 -The
Republicans and Democrats in Congress
differ widely in their opinions Of the
Presid0nt's labor message. The Re.
publican Senators and Representatives
see in 1t . bid for the workingmep g
support the Democratic party. The
Democrats, while they are compelled 70
admit that 1t can be made an effective
campaign document, and that 10 ID
shrewd and was brought out rust ut the
time to serve such q purpose, deny
that 1t was written with any partisan
intent.
The Republicans do not find fault
with the general tenor OF Mr.. Cleve-
land's recommendations as to o national
commission to conduct arbitrations, bat
conflne their criticisms 10 the point that
1t was designed TO catch votes. Repre-.
sentative Butterworth, OF Ohio, made q
speech Just after the message had been
read to the House In which be referred
to the recently introduced Arbitration
bill as hollow mockery and sham. II
was not intended TO do anything for the
laboring men. 1t was mere tub to q
whale-a deliberate trap to catch votes.
He criticised the want of consideration
given to 1t by the committee on labor
saying, If member secured fifteen
minutes TO speak on the bill, he devo
ted eight.minutes.to abusing Jay Gould
six minutes TO abusing corporations,
and then surrendered his etLer minute,
being unequal to the task of suggesting
| any remedy.
Mr.. O'Eeill, of Missouri, one of the
assailed committeeman, asked, "Why
didn't you suggest remedy" "Be-
cause you would not give me time
to open my mouth" replied Mr.. But
terworth. Mr.. Bland, of Ohio, had
voted few days before on the bill
that proposed to set the laborers of the
country at work, remarking furhel
that the contraction OF the
currency was what was impover-
ishing the people to-day.
"Still harping on my daughter,
tquoted Mr.. Butterworth In reply. "I
we were discussidg infant baptism
here, the gentleman from Missouri
would stand mp and want to have the
baptismal basin purchased with stand
ard silver dollars"
As to what Congress is doing, msy
say 1t is chiefly spending money. TIT
House Of Representatives has the Rive
and Harbor bill under consideration
and has been voting appropriations TO
the improvement of hundreds OF river
throughout the country. The Senat
has been passing pension bills by tn
hundred, as well as other measures in
volvipR the expenditure Of money. r.
