Chinese Benny's Father-in-LaW is
aClerk in the Pension Office.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., June 29.-The
Rev. DR.. John w. Scott, of Indiana, who
is the father-in-law of Gen. Benjamin
Harrison, the Republican nominee for
president, was appointed clerk in the
pension office on the Sd of November,
1881, by Commissioner Dudley. He is
now credited as having his legal resi-
dence in the Twenty-fourth congress
sonal district of Pennsylvania, and is a
81, 200 clerk, at present detailed for duty
in the mail division of the Office. DR..
Scott is the Oldest emplOye probably in
the government service. He was born
some time during the year 1900, and was
at one time president of the state
university at Athens, O. During his
presidency Benjamin Harrison was a
student of that institution, and while
there became acquainted with his
daughter, whom he subsequently mar
ried. DR.. Scott was afterward president
of the Female college, at College Hill,
near Cincinnati. DIR. Scott, like Gen.
Harrison, is Presbyterian of the old
school. and a devOut believer in the doc
trine of election as eXpounded by the
founder of that faith, the immortal John
Calvin. He believes in Justification by
faith and the thirty-nine articles; also,
the Westminster catechism. The ortho-
dOXy of Rev. Dr.. Scott, of the pension
office, and his Son-in-law. Benjamin
Harrison, will be vouched for by the
highest synOds of that church which
Bob Ingersoll takes SO much pleasure III
denouncing.

FORTY DAYS WITHOUT FOOD.
Zachar, the Faster, is Likely to
Break the Record.

Adcnar, the raster, IS Likely TO
Break the Record.
RACINE, Wis, June 29.-Zachar, the
faster, is keeping up his intention of
beating the worlds record. He has
now been forty-one days without food.
He remains in bed most of the time
now, sleeping quietly. He is quite thin
and looks like man who has passed
through severe spell of sickness, but
convalescing. The family states that he
still persists in refusing all food offered
him. He spends his mornings in bed
and OH pleasant afternoons wraps him
self up in blanket and goes out in the
yard and sits under tree. He will not
take anything, not even his medicine
from any one but his. physician.
That Zachar is demented is certain;
he is very quiet and when he talks is
rational in his remarks; but his mind is
firm on the subject of food. He gets a
little teSty when pressed to eat and says
he knows his own business and when
he wants anything he will let them
know. flow much longer nature will
be able to sustain life in this man is a
question. The likelihood that he will
continue to live for ten or twelve days
more is very good, as he has not yet
reached the stage of extreme weak
ness, but retains considerable vitality.
The only thing that can be said with
certainty is that Zachar is on the forty
second day of his Self-imposed fast; is
IN much better condition than would
seem possible, and there is no speculat-
ing with any degree of certainty when
nature will Succumb to the great strain
placed upOn it.

DONE WITH ONE SECTION.
The House Concludes Its Consid-
GRAFTON of the Free List End of
the Mills Bill.

II
the Mills Bill.
WASHINGTON, June 29.-Considera-
ton of the free list section of the tariff
bill was concluded and the second Sec
ton was taken up to-day in the house.
The conference committee on tbs Dis
trict of Columbia appropriation bill re-
ported disagreement, and a new con-
ference was ordered. The tariff bill
was then taken up. Motions to strike
from the free list rags, and reeds manu-
factuled but not made up, were rejected.
Paintings in oil or water colOrS, and
statuary were stricken from the free
list. A motion to strike from the free
list stones, manufactured and undresSed
freeston, granite, sandstone and all
building or monumental stone, excited
lively discussion between Lehlbach,
of New Jersey, Breckenridge, of Arkan-
sas, Milliken, of Maine, and Parker, of
marble had been taken from the
free list at the dictatiOn of
section of the Democratic caucus. The
section ruled the caucus, and the caucus
ruled the Democratic party. 1t re-
minded him of the epitaph: Father
Adam first was fooled; his case is still
too common. Here lies man by
woman ruled; the devil ruled the
woman" The motion to strike out was
rejected.
Mr.. Kerr, of Iowa, criticized Mr..
Weaver's straddling ability. He had
the longest political leg of any man in
the country. He could bridge the wild
est chasm in the world. He had been
declared on the floor, 1--WE welcome the
ISSUE" An amendment offered by Mr..
Buchanan, of New Jersey, that if any
of the articles on the free list of the bill
were imported in other than American
bottoms, the duties of the act of 1888
should be paid thereon, was lost. On
motion of Mr.. Russell, of Massachu-
setts, primuline was placed on the
free list. This completed the
free list section of the bill.
The clause providing that the rate of
charges in the dutiable part of the bill
should go into effect July l. 1888, was
passed over informally. Mr. Dingley,
of Maine, moved to place duty of fif-
teen cents a cask on lime, which had
been struck from the free list last. Mr..
Adams moved to strike out the clause
liking the duty on refined glycerne at
three cents a pound. This led to a long
discussion in which Mr.. Reed, of Maine,
criticized the majority of the ways and
means committee for attempting to mis-
lead the country by statements as to the
effect the bill would have on govern
ment revenues. Messrs. Wilson, of
West Virginia. and Breckenridge, of
Arkansas, defended the committee. Mr..
Adams amendment was lost. Mr.. Ran
dali moved concurrence in the joint res
olutlon extending appropriations for
thirty days. Agreed to. At p. m. the
house took a recess till s p. NJ. the
evening session to be for the considera-
ton OF private pension bills.
at the evening session the house
passed twenty-Seven private pension
bills and at 1920 adj jo urned.

MEAN TO DIE HARD.
Railroad Companies Will Attack
the Constitutionality of the
Iowa Schedule.


CHICAGO, June 29.-The action of the
railroad companies in petitioning the
United States circuit court for an in
junction restraining the Iowa commis-
sioners from promulgating their pro-
posed schedule of rates is based on the
claim that the new railroad law of that
state is unconstitutional. The petition
sets forth that the law interferes with
the operation of theinterstate commerce
act, that it fixes heavy penalties without
sufficiently defining the offenses which
they are designed to punish, and that
the proposed rates are so unreasonable
as to amount practically to confisca-
ton of property. The Rock Island COM
pany, which is an Iowa corporation,
filed a similar petition in the state
court at Iowa City, and a restraining
order similar to that of Judge Brewer
has been issued by Judge Farrell.
