Mis-. CLEVELAND ACCUSED OF NEGLECT.
"A dispatch from Washington to the Phil
adephia Press says
Zone evening recently was given ore OF
the moot prolific of dinners Of any date this
winter. Secretary Beyard gave his secoud
10 honor of Joseph Chamberlain; Hon. John
Goode entertained guests Ia honor o! MIR.
Justice Gray of British Columbia; Represen'
tative and Mrs. Cabot Lodge gave dinner;
Senator Gibson invited a humber Of eminent
men to banquet with President Andrew ID.
White, aud Gen and Mrs Beale, dined par.
ty to meet the Hon John Genuadius, Greek
Minister to London, who is here to negotiate
a reduction of the duty on currants. Mrs
Harriet Lane Johnston, who has for i've
weeks been the guest OF her friend, Mrs.
Horpsby, daughter of the late Judge Bisck,
leaves here to mo- row for Florida, and hirs
Hornsby goes early in the week to York on
account of the teriOus illness OF brother.
Mre Johnston, although it is now four
yeare since the death OF her husband, has
not been inclined to minge 10 society dur
Ing her visit beyond her call OF courtesy on
Mrs. Cleveland with Mrs. Hornsby soon at
ter her arrival and one or two informal DIM
ners with her old and Intimate friend Mis-.
Langhton. Surprise is freely expressed that
her call st the White House he's been re-
clprocated by no mark of attention from
the President or his wfe-not 80 much
as q flower from the conservatory or a
drive with Mrs Cleveland, nor even return
visit from this lsdy-although che bss calico

fence. Mre. johnston ia ono of the most ele-
CANT women who ever graced The White
House, and was lis chatelaine during the
last preceding democratic administration.
Mrs. Cleveland would have done herself
honor in showing her some special mark OF
consideration aside from merely receiving
her call with the ordinary amount of gra-
ciousness. The President, 80 therumor goes,
cameinto the room during the call and chatt-
ed few minutes, but omitted to escort the
ladies to the door, and the former mistress
of the White House passed out like Mrs.
Jones or Robinson, not even an usher being
instructed to call the carriage and no servant
visible TO perform the duty. Mrs. Johnston
received many kind marks Of remembrance
from old Washington friends. but this for
getful indifference at the White House must
have impressed anew upon her mind the
vanity of human greatness"

suspense. Ex-Reading engineers continue
to man the c.. B. and Q engines. The en-

refuse, it is said. to give up their places, and
the result is that the railroad is running a
good macy of its trains, and it believes that
it will in short while be able to move them

irving and leaving on time, and number
ofthrough trains are running. The railroad
has employed nearly 400 engineers and as
