He Remarks on the Mrs. whitney white
House Scandal Interview.


House Scandal" Interview.
New YORK, Dec. 11.-Referring to Mrs
Whitney's statement in denial of the white
House scandaln stories, Mr.. Chauncey NJ. De
pew said:
81 mentioned these widely circulated
stories, marveled at the thoroughness will
which they had been spread over the country
and said that did not believe there was any
foundation for them. / certainly took No
malicious delight in spreading scandalou'
stories, for the stories were already on every
tongue. They were as widely circulated a.
it is possible for anything of that kind to be
and / simply commented on something thai
was almost universally known.
Mr.. Depew adds that he never believed any
of these stories, and that he has always de
Tended Mr.. Cleveland's private character IL
public and in private; also that he does moi
blame Mrs Whitney for what she said about
himself, as she only did what she thought
was right
Secretary Whitney was seen at his Fifty
seventh street residence He said he knew
nothing about the interview with his wife
except what he had read. He had not seeI
her since the publication, but lit sounded
very much like her, and was probably cor
rect. She was very much incensed at thu
many stories that were circulated, and doubt
less talked very freely"

Fresh Disturbances Expected-The Mill
tary Called Out.
BEvIER, No., Dec. 11.-There Is very little
hope entertained here tlAt the disturbances
arising out of the recent strike are at an end,
and fresh outbreaks are looked for hourly
while the strike lasts The sheriff is unable
to secure a sufficient force of men to prevent
disorder if an outbreak takes place There
are two armed bodies of men ready at a mo.
ment's warning to renew trouble, and the
accidental firing of gun would be the signal
for bloody struggle. The disarming OF
both sides can only be accomplished by the
governor placing the town under martial
law. Saturday night the storehouses OF
Loonlis & Snively, the leading miners of the
place, were burned, and are thought to have
been set on fire.
KANSAS Cry, No., Dec. 10.-Governor
Moorhouse, of Missouri, has arrived at Be.
vier and ordered out the state militia to
quell the disturbance among the strikers at
that place. Two companies of the Third

The bursting Of the Hainesworth Gun.

PITTsBURG, Dec. 1.-THE Times publishes
spicy article under the caption: "Was the
powder honest or was dynamite used tc
burst the guagn The tenor of the article is
that the cartridge that burst the Hainesworth
cast steel cannon at Annapolis last week was
prepared solely by men whose whole reputa,
tion depended on proving the Haineswortt
gun failure, quotes a member of the ord
nance board as saying just before the test
that either the gun or the ordnance board
had to go to pieces, and concludes by quoting
The Engineering and Mining Journal to the
effect that the failure of the gun, while un.
fortunate, is not at all conclusive against the
use of cast steel for heavy ordnance.

Terra Gotta is an Italian word for
baked clay or earth. When the Romans
were rich people, writes Gath in the
Cincinnati En- iir r, they employed terra
Gotta to ornament. their architecture and
to make vases, urns and ornamental hg-
ures. When the Venetians had taken
possession of the carrying trade between
Asia and Europe they revived terra Gotta
abreast of Columbus, and old Michael
Angelo worked in it, The English be-
came rich toward the close of the eight
eenth century, through their cOnquests
from France and Spain, their general
trade, and the importance of their colo
MES, and being able 10 build stylish
houses they encouraged their terra Gotta
manufacturers.
1t is claimed that terra Gotta is the
oldest building material known to his
tory. except wood
The Moors made great deal of terra
Gotta in spiiu. and really taught the art
to modern times. About thirty years
before Columbus, Lucca della RObbia,
the greatest worker in this art, made his
superb singing galleries and public
sculptures.
The English established their princi-
pal terra Gotta works for architectural
purposes in 1880, aud these works, which
we owned by a man named Coade,
caused Others to he started in competl-
ton. In 1913 Blashfeid's works were
established, out of which came Mr.. Tay-
lor He came to America IN 1870.
In that year the first successful terra
Gotta works we're set up in the United
States Mr. Taylor came from staff I'd,
England, and was first superintendent
of the Chicago works, and after that was
superintendent of the Perth Amboy
Terra Gotta Company, and later on wa:
the superintendent of the Boston Terra
Gotta Works.

The Coolest Town in the World.

In Nature, DR.. Ham gives an interest
ing account of the winter temperature OF
Werchoiansk Siberia, deduced from
several years observation. The town,
which lies in the valley Of the Jana,
about feet above the level of the river,
in latitude Ga degrees 81 minutes n.
longitude 1873 degrees II minutes f., and
at height of about $50 fee, above the
sea, has the greatest winter cold that IS
known to exist upon the globe. Month
" means Of is degrees F. occur even
in December, mean temperature which
has been observed nowhere else IN the
polar regions, and minima OF 10 de
erees are usual for the three winter
months December February, In the
year 1855 March also had a minimum
II degrees, and during that year
December aud January never mad a
minimum above 20 degrees, while in
January. 1855, the temperature OF SO
DEGREES was recorded These extreme
readings are hardly credible, yet the
Thermometers have been verified at
the st. Petersburg Observatory. To add
TO the misery Of the inhabitants, at some
seasons the houses are inundated by the
overflow Of the river. The yearly range
of cloud is Characteristic Of the climate ;
in the winter season the mean only
amounts to about three-tenths in each
month
