THE PRESIDENTS PARTY.

Places

They Visit Palatka, Titusville and Other
Places.
PALATKA, Fla, Feb. 24.-The president
and party arrived al East Palatka at 1915
last night, and were ferried over to Pa
latka, where a train was waiting at the
wharf. The party was shown through the
warehouse to the train, where a large
crowd had gathered. The president
stepped down to the lowest step of
the Car after the party had got
aboard. The struggling crowd was
finally got into line and the president
shook hands with them as they passed
by. The train left at 1920. The an
noUncement had been made that he
would hold a reception. Hundreds came
into town, some as far as two hundred
miles. Their disappointment was ex-
pressed with some bitterness at the mis-
take made by the committee sent to meet
the president.
The run from Palatka to TitusvilIe was
made very slowly TO enable the members
of the party to rest. This morning the
party took steamer at Titusville for a
sail on Indian river to RockIedge, where
it will make brief stay and then start
Cd the return trip, reaching Sanford
this afternoon and Jacksonville to-
night.

BUSINESS EMBARRASSMENT.

A Sturgeon Bay Firm Gets its Head Above
the Tide Again.
GREEN BAY, Feb. 27.-Last October the
Sturgeon Bay Lumber company made an
assignment to W. Laren, of Milwaukee.
Besides their numbering interests they
held a half interest in the mercantile
firm of A. w. Lawrence & Co., of Stur-
geon Bay, as co-partners with A. W. Law
renee and S. M. Washburn. Immediately
after its assignment to W. Laren, A. W.
Lawrence and T.. NJ. Washburn the
solvent parties appointed L. M. Wash
burn, of the firm, receiver. Wash
burn proposed to the assignee that
he release them the interest in the mer-
camille firm on their assuming the liza
bilities on the ground that the insolvent
lumber company prior to their failure
had drawn from the firm $4,000. The
assignee accepted the proposition sub
iect to the approval of the court. Judge
Hastings heard the protest of the cred
itors and to-day granted the prayer of
Lawrence and Washburn. This will set
the mercantile firm on their feet. The
amount Of claims involved is about
100000.

Louis gave the address, and the cab

IN minute or two Louis rallied. and

mounting to his cheek.

not unkindly:

Louis with peculiar sharpness just now,
and, with a reckless sort of laugh, he turn

Clocks as if l were millionaire; the sort
of place a girl who lives on rose-leaves

He threw himself into a chair, pressing
his hand to his forehead. Beauregard
stood still, looking at him steadily. Louis,
he saw, was in a dangerous mood; he had
seen this ten minutes ago in Regent Street.

been enough for Max; and 1t was not diff

purpose to adhere TO his cause to the end
and with no second choice. The pros
poets of republican success in Indiana
are exceedingly bright. The party is
now in good condition, and under
the lead of Senator Harrison and
with a good and sound state ticket
we would certainly carry the state. The
senator will, anyway, have the solid Indi-
ana delegation to the convention?"
"Has Judge Gresham no chance?"
"The following of Judge Gresham is
confined to few men and is not by ely
means formidable. His is personal
contest rather than in the interest of the
party. Ninety per cent. of the republi-
cans in Indiana are for Gen. Harrison
and that same percentage Will not take
kindly TO the candidacy of Judge Ores
ham. He will have no strength in the
convention from our state"

LARD ADULTERATION.

The Chicago Board of Trade Does Not Coun-
tenance the So-Called Refined Lard.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-J. @. Hately, of
the Chicago board of trade, made an ar
gument before the senate committee on
agriculture favoring the protection of
unaduiterated lard. He described the
process of manufacturing lard in order
to controvert the statements made by
Fairbanks. He stated his purpose to be
to convince the committee that the Chica-
go board of trade did not countenance
the so-called refined lard" Hately ad-
n.itted that 'prime steam lard sometimes
contained the heads and inte3tines of
hogs in addition to the pure fat" VIM.
Kirkwood, of Chicago, stated that in the
last ten years thousands of tierces of
pure steam lard had been exported to
England. This lad found its way for
the most part into the hands of the Brit
ish refners. No reclamations bad been
made on account of adulteration.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-The Interstate
commerce commission to-day promul-
gated an elaborate opinion in the case of
George Rice, of Marietta, Ohio, against
several railroads, charging them among
other things with discrimination in favor
OF the Standard Oil company. The case
of each defendant is considered separate
ly, and in the case of the Louisville
q Nashville road an order is en- tered that
the defendants cease unjust discrimina-
ton and that they cease to make tank
rates when the tanks differ in capacity,
and that they conform the charges on
tank cars and barrel shipments to the
rule that the tank is to be considered
a part of the car itself, and
for whatever is carried in il
the charge ought to be the same by the
hundred pounds as is made on the trans
portation of barrels of oil in carload
lots in other cars. In the case of the
Iron Mountain road finding is, the de-
PENDANT made excessive rates on barrel
shipments, and the order is entered that
its charges be made to conform to the
rule. In the cases Of the Illinois Central
and the two other roads no orders were
