NEW YORK, Feb. H.-Robert G. In.
gersoll, said: Blaine is like an amor
Gus widow, stimulating coyness to allure
woers. She says no; but she means yes.
Mr.. Blaine, to my knowledge, has had the
presidential fever for the last twelve years,
and that never leaves a man until life
leaves him.. He is trying the same with
drawing dodge that Tilden tried in 1880,
and as happened to Tilden he may, much
to his disgust, be taken at his word"
Roscoe ConSling refused to be inter.

S. B. Ekins, said: II am not prepared
TO discuss the letter. 1t is generally
known that he did not want the nomina-
ton. y
Frank Hatton, said: cit is safa to as
sumo that a man who has occupied the
position before the country that Mr..
Blaine has, wrote the letter In good faith.
It is a disappointment. l do not think it
will nave any particular effect on the
party. The party is stronger than any
man in it. The man selected will draw
out the entire vote"

way passenger trains receive no more than
thousands Of worl,ingmen in the ordinary
pursuits of life, where the responsibility of
human life, the most wcighty OF all rcspon-

The captains OF the Cunard steamers. the
largest, swftest, and most popular on the

There are certain perquisites which may
come to them, but for these the company
employing them Is In no wise to be credited.
The company for whom they perform their
unCeusing luhors aud for whom they carry
such tremendous load of care, value
their services at 500 per month. 1t
may be said that faithfulness, watchfulness,
industry, aud courage are attributes that
may exist in man who lacks other quail
ties which would III him for the higher po-
stions Of life, and those that are more re-
muncmtive. Such distinction Is arbitrary
to great extent, aud grows up from long
established custom. The greatest demands
are made upon the class of employees here
spoken of-thc class Of employees who have
vast responsibility as well as severe labor
and there ought to be a recognition Of them
IN proportion to what they are worth in the
broad sense Of the term. The best preven-
