STARTLING FIGURES.

The Withdrawal OF currency from
the business of the nation has reach
ell startling 6gures-as will be seen
by the following statement, which is
based upon the official report OF
United States Treasurer Hyatt, is
sued March 81, 1888:
Gross amount Of cash in his hands

$3SO,762,S77.6O, out of which the
Treasurer has SCI, 1881, 647.3G lying
in the National Banks. secured by de-
post with him of Government Bonds.
OF this vast sum, $lOO,O00,00O is
retained as reserve against the Legal
Tender notes; S37,249,253OS is re.
tanned to cover various appropriations;
&99,l92,622.15 is the actual net
amount retained to cover redemp-
lions Of National Bank notes, leav-
ing *13O,326,75S.54 as the actual
surplus at that date. OF this amount
$25, 1884, $500 is fractional silver.
The spirit OF all laws of Cong ress
is that only $lOO,OOO,OOO shall be
kept idle, but from this statement we
see $3.50 1926, 1854 is kept idle, and
with the nearly 400, 900. 900 also idle
awaiting the slow process of redeem.
ing National Bank notes, we have a
grand total Of idle money of upwards
Of THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY

600 reserve against legal tenders intac,
and some $25,00O,O00 besides.
II the remedy for the "rrouble,
depends on "Congress," it should
awake at once.
If the Administration refuses to
act under laws already on the Statute
Books, and trouble should come, then
they bear the blame. If, under this
law, in good plain English on the
Statute Books, aud under which, al
ready, by previous Administrations
$lS2.24l,75O Bonds have been pur-
chased, the present Administration re,
fuses to act in case of need, while
awaiting the slow action of Congress,
then let the blame rest where it be
longs.
While the government has So large
a debt, Congress should be very eau.
tious in reducing revenues. The
people do not complain OF, or even
feel, the collection OF the present
revenues of the government; but the
people do complain that the present
revenues, paid in so cheerfully,
should, il too much to run the govern
ment, be locked up from use, when
they could so easily be used in re-
ducing the debt.
The people Of the United States
want the debt retired and settled as
soon as possible,-all the evils befall.
ing the work,ngmen Of the Old World
come from the enormous public debts.
Let us, as soon as possible, be free
from debt. Capital and people from
the whole world will seek our borders,
and we shall become the "Clearing
House" of the world.

An Entusiastic Meeting at the Quaker
City.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. 27.-The tariff
meeting which was held at the Academy
of Music this evening ito enforce and en-
d0rse the recommendations of President
Arthur and President Cleveland for reve-
nue. reform" was one of the most success
full demonstrations of its character ever
held in this city. An ovation was given
the speaker of the evening, Congressman
Breckenridge of Kentucky. Mr.. Brecken-
ridge had scarcely left the stage at the con-
clusion Of his peroration when burst of
applause from the audience, which fairly
shouted itself hoarse, compelled him to re-
turn. Referring to President Cleveland's
message the speaker said that he was
proud to live in a day when a man could be
elected chief magistrate of the nation brave
enough and honest and mindful enough of
his obligations to the people, who could
with the presidency in his gift lay it aside
for his duty, The resolutions adopted de-
clared, first, that the existing duties onraw
materials which are to be used in manu-
factures should be removed; second, that
the duties upon articles used or consumed
by those who are least able to bear the
burden of taxation should be reduced.

Four Young Lady Clerks Burned to
Death-Loss $1,eOO,OOO.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Feb. 1.-At lao O'clock
this morning fire broke out in Barnes, Hem
gerer & Co.'s dry goods establishment. At
noon the walls OH Pearl street fell in, bur
ying in the ruins four girls employed in
that part of the building. They were seen
to fall back with the walls. At 1890 the
front walls fell in and the whole structure
is now in ruins. The fire spread to the ad-
joining buildings, occupied by Dickinson's
jewelry and Partridge's dry goods stores,
and leaped across the street to Glenn's
china and glassware and Morgan's carpet
stores. Mr.. Howard of the firm of Barnes,
Hengerer & Co. states that all the EN-.
plOyes are SAFE Mr.. Howard reports their
loss on stock at $750,000, with 100000 in
surance. Across the street the firm of D.
r. Morgan & Son, whose stock is badly
damaged by water, hold $l25,00O insurance,
and Mrs. r. j. Sherman, owner of the
building, has $4,000. The total loss is es-
timated at about 81 zoo, 900, with insurance
enough to cover it.

WHO'S A LIAR?
Did Judge Mackey Fabricate Regard
ing His Lawful Wife Who is
Now in Washington?
1t Begins to Look That Way, and
New Sensational Developments
Are Expected.
The Uncle and Niece.

The Mackey-W Witherbee sensation which
for time made Bismarck the center of
society news has broken out again. This
time Mrs. Mackey, the lawful wife of the
Judge, brings the sensation to life, as will
be seen by the following telegram from
Washington:
WAsHINGToM, Feb. Mrs. Mackey,
for divorce on the grounds Of desertion and
improper relations with Mrs. Witherbee.
She also files suit to compel him to restore
her property which, she says, he got pos
session of as trustee for her.
This gives a new color to the case.
When Judge Mackey and the fascinating
Mrs. Witherbee were in Bismarck, they
endeavored to convince the people that the
Judges lawful wife was not interested in
the case, that she had no complaint to
make and that she and the Judge were liv-
ing apart under articles of separation. But
| this news from Washington is the last
straw that breaks the Mackey- -Witherbee
camel's back. 1t is now reasonable to as
sumo that the entertaining pair practiced
| deception on the people of Bismarck and
are endeavoring to cry down the just ex-
pose made by the press.
The TRIBUNE has heard many things
which it intended to suppress, but this last
development brought to light by the in
dignation of a wronged woman, tile lawful
Mrs. Mackey, leaves very little room for
sympathy or doubt.
AN INTERESTING CONVERSATION.
One of the most interesting features of
the case is the conversation between the
Judge and Mrs. Witherbee. When in their
room they would talk very loud and those
who overheard their remarks tell some
spicy stories. One is as follows:
The conversation was spirited They
were engaged in hot dispute. Mrs. Wither-
bee exclaimed "You don't care anything
| for me. You are after my money"
good woman, | am on the road to the pen
itentiary for YOU"
This is told by one who overheard the
conversation and is too good to remain un-
published. The TRIBUNE is in receipt Of
letters from Washington, Chicago and Ell
gin which confirm nearly every sensation
al report sent out from those points and
the "uncle" and "niece" will have difficult
task to convince the public that they have
been wrongful ly accused.
A letter from Chicago to a Bismarcker
announces that Judge Mackey and Mrs.
Witherbee arrived in Chicago and stopped
at the Grand Pacific hotel.
Strange that the judges wife should not
know his favOrite niece to be his niece
This is a great country!

SERIOUS CHARGES.

Minneapolis Officials Accused of Abusing
a Pest House Patient.
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 2.-Henry Ryan who
was taken to the pest house a week ago
last Sunday while suffering from an attack
af small pox died this morning. When it
was learned that he was dead various
rumors went flying about and such remarks
"No wonder he died." 1t was openly stated
by several that when it was discovered
that Ryan had small pox he was ilnmedi-
ately taken from the house and put in an
open sleigh and was dumped out into the
snow several times on his way to the pest
house. Ryan's friends are investigating
the case and will bring an action against
the city if the reports circulated this morn
ing are true.

DIVISION AND ADMISSION.

ARGUMENTS BEFORE THE COMMITTEE.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Delegate Clifford
of Dakota was heard this morning by the
committee on territories in favor of the bill
to admit North and South Dakota as
separate states. He read at great length
statements tending to substantiate the
claim that the proposed states possess in
an eminent degree the conditions of area,
productive cepacity, population, loyalty,
wealth and agricultural resources requisite
to entitle them to admission to the sister
hood of states. All persons would agree,
he said, that the treatment received by the
territory from the hands of congress re-
garding this matter of statehood is without
a parallel in the country's history in its
neglect and injustice. He held that an ex-
cellent reason for division and admission
of the two parts of the territory as distinct
states was that the functions of govern
ment could be better exercised by two
states Of medium size than would be the
case il the territory in its large unwieldy
condition were admitted as whole. Ar
guments were also made by Mr.. Rainmyers
Of Dakota in favor of division of the terri
tory and by Mr.. w. E. Purcell of North Da-
kota in opposition to division and in favor
of the bill admitting the territory as
whole.

AUDITOR WARD.
He Will Not be Decapitated, But Will
Probably Resign.

Probably Resign.
ST. PAUL, Feb. 2.-Sioux Falls, Dak.,
special to the Pioneer Press: Governor
Church to-day invited a large number of
democrats here to meet him at his hotel.
He informed them that the conference of
the night before was not political, but
merely social, and it was not to squeeze
Auditor Ward out, as between Ward and
himself the most cordial relations existed.
He stated that the auditor had for some
time contemplated resigning and his res
ignation might be expected at any date.
1t is inferred from the talk of prominent
democrats that Inman will not be Wards
successor for the reason that the treasurer
is taken from South Dakota, and North
Dakota will insist on having the anditor.
