BOulGnger Denies That He Is ambitious to
Become Dictator.
PARIS, Jan. 3.-General Boulanger in
his address TO the electors of the depart
ment of the Seine says:
''Those members of parliament who
did their utmost to make me ineligible
were beside themselves at the idea Of
seeing me elected. My sword caused
them anxiety, and they deprived me-
of it. But now they are more
anxious than they were when I
wore sword Really il is not me they
fear, but universal suffrage, whose re-
peated judgments they in disgust with
their incapacity base intrigues and fanci-
full discussions, inspired. In or
der to avoid being compelled
to accuse themselves they charge
me with most improbable dictatorial pro-
jects. When minister I was overthrown
by the pretext that l was the personitica-
ton of war. Now l am opposed as the
persOnification of dictatorship. If L
ever could have entertained the. idea of
playing dictator it would have been when
[ was minister of war and had the whole
army in my own hands. There has been
nothing in my conduct to justify even the
suspicion. l accepted the sympathies of
all without dreaming of stealing popular
ify from any. There is nothing dictato-
rial in the programme that de-
mands constitutional revision by
the most democratic system, by the con-
stituent assembly The Republican leaders
had confidence in my Republicanism
when they opened to me the doors of the
cabinet. challenge the Republicans to
cite a single act or profession in which
have not plainly supported the republic,
but desire, as France desires, some
thing besides combination of ambitions
and greed. France thirsts for justice,
for equity for disiuterestedness.

Not Much to DO.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The house is
doing nothing, and the prospects for any
general legislation are slim indeed. The
most important measure is the admission
of new states. The friends of the Omni-
bus territorial bin viii resist any attempt
to deprive New Mexico of statehood, but
still an agreement on that territory is
doubtful. Springer insists that the four
territories should be admitted by one act,
and he win fight to keep new
Mexico in. Delegate Joseph of New
Mexico, replying to the criticisms of
Senator Platt upon his territory, says
that there are fourteen counties in the
territory, any one of which is larger than
the state of Connecticut. Fifty per cent.
of the inhabitants, he says, are from the
east and 70 per cent. of the so-called
Mexicans read and speak English. The
cattle interests of the territory he says
are very valuable.

dent, - Mr.. O'Terrell said, ''acted
with promptness. The attorney general
did not delay for minute, and yet the
department of state has held and still
holds back the necessary warrant for
the release of the man pardoned two
weeks ago. -

Arctic Relief Station.

WASHINGTON, Jan. "a petition was
presented to-day by Senator Stamford
from the chamber of commerce of San
Francisco, Cal, calling the attention of
congress to the urgent need of perman-
ent relief station in the Arctic ocean.
The petition says whaling fleets fitting
out at San Francisco are steadily increas-
ing and many hundreds of lives aud
millions of dollars worth of property are
exposed to the usual danger in pursuit of
whaling IN the Arctic. A relief station
supplied with provisions, fuel, medical
stores, heavy clothing and life-saving
apparatus, the petition says. would be a
great boon to our Arctic whalemen.

Her Stepdaughter Swears the Woman Urged
Her Father to Kill Schilling.
PHILADELPHIA PA. Jan. 3.-AI war
rant was this afternoon issued for the ar
rest of Mrs. Schoop, wife of Jacob Schoop
the confessed murderer of Antoine Schill-
ing. The warrant was issued on the
strength of a sworn statement of the
daughter of Schoop by a former marriage
in which she declared her step
mother had frequently urged
her father to kill Schilling so they
could get possession of his money. Miss
Schoop also testified that her step-mOther
had asked her to put poison in Schilling's
coffee. Mrs. Schoop is now in the medi-
cal department of the almshouse under
going treatment for cancer. She is also
suffering from the shock caused by the
arrest of her husband. When the officers

The Tarif Sub-Comnfttee.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-It is learned
that the change made in the sugar
schedule by the senate subcommittee in
charge of the tariff bill provides bounty
of l cent per pound, to be paid on all
sugar raised in this country. This, it has
been said, is fully agreed on. A reduc-
ton of duty from 81 to 81 .25 per 1000
will probably be made upon sawed white
pine lumber, if that will satisfy The de-
inands of those clamoring for a change in
the lumber schedule. Despite the strenu-
Gus efforts made to secure a reduction
OF the duty on structural iron from cent
to or mills pound there is good au-
thority for saying that the committee viii

general solicitor of the Pennsylvania

Brooks said:
% Mr.. Mckinley dined with me several
weeks ago before the speakership contest
had developed to any great extent. He
seemed to me to be in a passive attitude
regarding the matter, and was not dis
posed to make hot fight for it. He can
not afford to run the risk of making enc
mics he cannot avoid making if he is cho-
sen speaker. There is bigger game for
him in the future. If he waits there is no

with J H D.. Mcneil to build six gigantic

appended the report of A. NJ. Prescott,

the cisterns as not being up to the con-
tract and incapable of holding water.
Upon motion the council declined to re-
ceive the cisterns which cost the con-
tractor about $40 900.

Nothing practical can be gained by discus

In some quarters, TO serve as a counter-move-
ment IN behalf of the railroad against attempts
by citizens to compel the railroad to obey the
laws, it is merely amusing. For either it is
based upon ludicrous misconception of the
purpose OF the present crusade against illegal
tracks, or else il places ridiculously low esti-
mate upon the intelligence of the public which
it seeks to confuse into believing that there is
difference of opinion in South Washington in
respect to that crusade. But there is no disin-
terested person in South Washington, or any
other part of the city, who will petition that
the railroad may be permitted to break the
laws with impunity. and to retain illegal tracks
on the assurance that its friend. the Congress
Of the United States will at some future time
legalize its infractions of the law Whether
the railroad continues to occupy Maryland and
Virginia avenues, hereafter is removed by
Congress TO or some other street. it is the
duty of the local authorities to hold it to strict
obedience TO the law. Only the streets desig-
mated and the tracks authorized by Congress
can be legally occupied. Standing cars may not
block the streets. Trains may run only at the
legal rate OF speed. Grade crossings must be
guarded as provided by statute. All these pro-
visions of law are at present persistently vio-
