THE THREE AMERICAS.
Importance of the Adoption of a Uniform
 System for Trade.

Importance of the Adoption of a Uniform
 System for Trade.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 29-The Capital, in an article on the proposed congress of the Three Americas, says: "The importance of the bill, which the presidents signature made law. providing for a congress of American nations 1n 1889, for the purpose of adopting uniform system of weights and measures, common silver, coinage, laws for the regulation of patents, copyrights, trademarks, etc., and an equitable method of settling all international disputes, can hardly be overestimated With impending strikes and certain branches of trade para lyzed by over production, it is inexplicable that our manufacturers should not have made greater efforts to compete with the English, French and Germans in Spanish America, a market which, geographically considered, we should easily control. If time ever becomes an item of value to our sasy going southern neighbors, our share of this enormous and highly, lucrative com merce should speedily rise above the shame full and meager tenth with which we seem at present confronted; and our merchandise should be carried, too, in American ships"

THE PRESIDENTS DANGER,

The Main Stairway in the White House
 Discovered to Be Rotten.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 29-Officers of the engineer corps have for some time questioned the solidity of the main private stairway in the executive mansion. It was down this stairway that the wedding party came when President Cleveland was married two and half years ago. An investigation was made, and it was found that not only had the rafters sagged from their original position. but certain portions of the wood, which had been cut through for the heating pipes, had formed a sort of dry rot, thus endangering the whole The wonder seems to be that it has lasted so long without breaking through the ceiling below or even causing more seri- ous damage to the building The entire floor just in front of the president and Mrs Cleveland's sleeping apartments has been of late torn up for the purpose of repairs, and it is found that the original old beams, placed In position more than eighty years ago, have remained untouched to the present day.
 The weakening of the stairs is attributed particularly to the fact that during the ad- ministration of President Arthur the i'm mense throngs of visitors who attended the numerous public receptions were, through the advice of the district marshal, admitted to the upper floor, three of the bedrooms being opened as cloakrooms for these occa- siOnS,

M. Lebushitz who grabbed each by the coats and fairly dragged them into his store They tried to get out, but he held the door, declaiming volubly about his goods and pulling them down from the counters for inspection. The countrymen were fright ened and began to yell with might and main Two policemen heard them, and when they got into the store they found that Lebushitz had succeeded in getting an overcoat on one of the strangers over the coat he was wear ing, and was trying to pull So out of his pocket Justice White fined MT.

A Family Affair.

P1TTsBURG, Oct. 29.-Mrs. Lemuel Barron, of Lachute, Canada, q very pretty girl of l7, had been married to Barron but three months when her husband found she was i'll the habit of kissing friend of the family Dr. William Christie, Jr., aged 23. He e1- postulated, and Mrs Barron and the doctor eloped, came here and represented themselves to be man and wife Dr. Christie, Sr., came to town, and for several days has endeavored to induce the pair to separate and to effect reconciliation between MT. and Mrs. Barron. Since the elder Dr. Christie arrived @ letter has been received from the mother of Lemuel Barron saying that her son should never again live with the wife who deserted him, Dr. Christie, Sr., who is quite wealthy, has paid all the bills incurred by his son, and if @ reconciliation is effected will pay the ex- penses of Mrs. Barron back to Canada. Act ing on the advice of his father, Dr. Christie, Jr., has left for Philadelphia. The matter will be settled some way, probably, but there will be no criminal prosecutions.

According to Rev. Obadiah Bates the
 World will Come to an End Nov. 5.
 BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Oct. 29.-Rev Obadiah Bates, Hard-Shell Baptist preacher, who is pastor of four country churches in Selby county, has frightened many members of his congregation by circulating among them the following circular:
 Prepare all of ye, for the end is at hand have read it in the stars, and angels have come to me in my dreams and told me the glad tidings The world will come to an end Monday, Nov. 5, in the year of our Lord, 1888. Prepare all of ye for that great day. God has hastened the day because of the wicked men called politicians. They are all falsifiers and blasphemers, and will be burned in lakes of liquid fire because they fear not God and are given to works of iniquity Rivers of boiling water will burn the Pro hibitionists, and sea of fire and birthstone will open and swallow all Democrats and Republicans. Prepare, all of ye, and rensem- Der the day is at hand

.They Want Fowler to Pay.

CHICAGO, Oct 29-The settlement of the affairs of the suspended commission firm of Clifton & Go. attracts considerable attention because the house was crowded to the wall by ''Old Hutch" in the September deal, and be- cause Anderson Fowley member of the big packing firm of Fowler Bros, is partner More than one hundred of the creditors met and listened to report which showed liabili- ties of $2300 and assets of ,000. Dur ing the last nine months the firm lost $230- 900, or s160,00O moro than its entire capital Frank Clifton, the ostensible head of the firm, offered to settle at twenty five cents on the dollar, but when the creditors learned that Anderson Fowler had three fourths interest in the house, they decidedly refused the offer. MT. Fowler Is able to pay the in debtedness three or four times over and never feel it, but there is question as to his liability. The creditors will make the board decide upon that but believe he cannot es- cape paving

London Press on the Letter.

LONDON, Oct. 29.-Tho Times says: ''It seems certain that the Americans have taken a step to render it impossible for Lord Sack vile to remain in Washington. We are not prepared to censure Lord Saclzville. A British minister, whether in Washington or elsewhere, must be an English gentleman, and may be forgiven if he is not up to the tricks of American politicians. The Stand ard says: America has not asked the recall of Lord Sackville, but has taken O step little short of that.n The Telegraph says: Moth. ing can excuse the incontinence of Lord Sackville's pen except his transparent good faith and candor. He cannot, however be allowed to embroil the two nations" The Daily News says: Lord Sackville has nothing to be ashamed of, but some blunders are worse than crimes.n

The Czar's Narrow Escape.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 29.-The minister of the interior has received telegram from minister of the imperial court stating that five minutes before the czar arrived at Ku- tais, en route from Tefis to Euxine Kou- ban, Cossack disguised as an officer was arrested, having on his person several ex- plosives, besides some poison in gelatine cap sules. When taken into custody the man at tempted to swallow the poison. Some years ago the prisonar was expelled from the Uni versity of St. Petersburg for some imaginary political otfense and his career ruined. He was one of the founders of revolutionary society in southern Russia, the other mem- hers of which were arrested at Simferapol.

Last of the Series.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 29.-The worlds champion Ihip series virtually ended with the eighth game on Thursday, after which the leading members of the New York team left As the schedule called for ten games enough men were left here to make up team. Acting Captain O'Rourke made clear gift of Fri lays game to the Browns, and on Saturday he put his remnants on the field in such a way as to promise farce, and the promise was fulfilled It was an awful exhibition. New York had no use for the game, and let St Louis take it by default, the score being IS o7. In the evening the Hall cup and the worlds championship pennant were pre- tented to New York at the Grand opera house. Both teams formally disbanded.
