LONDON, Nov. 29.-The reports of the
confinement OF the emperor OF Germany te
his apartments with a severe cold have re-
yiyed tho stories prevalent here some time
ago Of the young monaFch's scrofulous con-
dition and the imminence Of his succumbing
<to disease similar to that which terminated
the life Of his father. From private dis
patches received during the last few days as
well as from correspondence giving what
purported to be accurate information IS to
the actual condition Of the health Of En-
peror William covering the last fortnight,
IL Is gathered that the erman throne Is
threatened with another abdication through
the operation Of the laws of nature within
the next year, and IL Is asserted that the alb

A Convert Worth Winning.

Hon. X. M. Morse, Jr.. leading
lawyer of Boston and one Of the strong
est Republican leaders in the State,
has cut loose from his party and de-
clared himself Cleveland man. The
announcement has made as much of q
stir in the Republican camp as did the
desertion of Colonel Cochran, Colonel
Higginson. Robert Treat Paine and
other leaders four years ago. Mr..
Morse says OF his action:
have always acted with the Republican
party, and it is hard TO break up old associa-
tons; but the party has proved false to its rec
ord on the tariff question, and / can not con-
men like Mr. Long and Mr.. Lodge eating their
own words in order to keep in line with the
party feel that the time has come to let the
party go. Mr.. Long bids goodbye to his for
mer opinions on the tariff, and he forgets hts
strong temperance principles to accept the
free-whisky plank in the rarty's platform, and
Mr.. Lodge Is in about the same situation.
When MIR. Cleveland issued his manly, out
spoken message in favor Of q reform in the
tariff Mr.. Blaine seized upon the opportunity
Immediately TO publish q manifesto embody
ing extreme protection views. He evidently
expected to bring the Republican party TO an
Endorsement OF those views, and he succeeded.
US witness the Chicago platform. ! am more
than ever convinced of the necessity Of tariff
reform, and believe that such Is the opinion
Of most thinking men.

JtNCO JIM'S APPEALS.


Despite AL ExaEEeratiOnS IarlH REFORM
Will Win the Victory.
But really. after all, Is Blaine sin
cere in his high-tariff appeals and ex-
aggerations? Not bit of it. As the
leader OF his party he must have a
war-cry for the campaign. He knew
that the bloody-shirt scare was played
out fully four years ago, SO far as it
could have any effect outside OF Maine
and Vermont. The Administration
however. had to be attacked by hook
or by crook, and SO when President
Cleveland came out boldly and sincere
" on the tariff question Blaine saw his
opportunity and jumped at it. I'VE
have it now he cried to his party.
Shout free trade, talk free trade,
speak free trade, dream free trade, let
every thing you do or say be redolent
and resonant of free trade. Free trade,
free trade, and always free trade.
Adopt the Chinese method Of soaring
the working-men by making all the
free trade noise possible. Teach them
to believe that the Democratic party
wants to reduce their wages. No
matter how utterly false and absurd it
is, stick to it that tariff reform means
free trade and low wages"

the country and especially the manu-

high duties for revenue purposes as
will prevent free international ex-

UNASSAlLABLE FACTS.
Hon. Hugh McCulloch's Able Plea for
Reduction Of the Tariff.

Hon. Hugh McCulloch's Able Plea for =
Reduction Of the Tariff.
There is no man in this country who
ought to be more familiar with the
effect of tariff legislation than Hugh
McCulloch. His long experience as
chief of the Treasury Department
under Lincoln, johnson and Arthur en-
titles his opinions to respect. The
fact that he has been a Republican
since the first organization of the Re-
publican party gives all the more
weight to the tariff views he now ex-
presses, because he feels impelled to
take issue with his party on this ques-
ton. In his MEN and Measures of a
Half Century," just published, Mr..
McCulloch writes of the effect of a re-
duction OF the tariff rs follows:
THAT the reduction OF duties to the
revenue standard would affect injuri-
ously mechanical and manufacturing
labor in the United States is not be-
lieved by many who have carefully
and disinterestedly considered the sub
ject. High duties are prejudicial TO
the laboring classes by increasing the
cost Of goods with which they must be
supplied. Wages are now higher in
the United States than in other coun-
tries, but So is the expense OF living.
Steady employment is becoming It's
uncertain in the United States as in
Europe, and strikes are more frequent
and persistent here than in any other
country.
There has never been SO much dis
content among manufacturing labor
ers in the United States as there is now.
when protection, in the opinion OF its
friends, is doing its perfect work; when
the duties on many articles are equal
to the cost of the labor in producing
similar articles by our own manufact-
urers. Wages depend upon demand
and supply, and they will steadily de-
cline in the United States in conse-
auence of the foreign immigration.
Humane considerations are not apt
to influence the action of business men.
There is free trade in labor, and our
manufacturers will employ if they do
not import, cheap laborers from the
other side OF the Atlantic, until wages

suited to Maine than to either New
York, New Jersey or Connecticut.
These three States, the key of the
whole Presidential situation a, far as
Blaine and his tactics are concerned,
have been clamoring for ten years for
free raw materials. Manufacturer after
manufactures in each OF them has pro-
nounced openly for the Mills bill, and
some OF them Republican manuiact-
urers a. thai. The only objection that
they have to find to il is the objection
that it does not 60 far enough. They un-
derstand perfectly that it was in
tended from the very first that the
Democrats should not pass a tariff re-
form bill If the leaders of the Repnb-
lican party could prevent it. 1t would
not have made the least difference
what sort Of a bin it was-evcn such a
bin rs they themselves would have de-
yised-its fate would have been the
same ut the hand, of the Republican
majority in the Senate. Their chief
hatred OF 1t, when all of the rant and
fustian is thoroughly stripped away
which they have sought so persistently
TO pile upon it, will be found in the
fact that it is too protective from Il
Democratic standpoint. Ii it really
were free-tradc measure indeed and in
truth. how they would have rejoiced
and taken it to their bosoms, and sent
1t through the land as the tidings of
great joy. But the child was christened
by the Republican leaders before it
was born. They determined that il
should be called free trade. Blaine
gave the command by cable immediate
ly upon the receipt Of the President
message, and SO the cry has been kept
mp from that day to this.

Lucy was especially anxious for the
presence of her mother at this time,
and fastened to reply, urging that they
sell if they could get anything like a

them, they felt it would be better for
