Roosevelt on Political Contributions.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-A well known
republican leader connected with the con-
eresslonal campaign committee has re-
ceived from Civil Service Commissioner
Roosevelt contribution of $50 to be used
Ior legitimate campaign expenses IN any
congressional district where needed. Com
missioner Thompson also has sent con-
Ifloutlon IN aid of the Democratic cause.
IN conversation to-day Roosevelt says:
clerks are as much at liberty to contri-
QUITE TO one party as to another, and they
are perfectly safe and free to make no con-
trlbations if they SO prefer Within the
ciasslhed service employees are under no
oongatons to any party. Governor

this administration. He makes contribu-
llons to aid his party. | am Republican,
ald nine. Ii we did not want to con-
tr1oute we would not. No one can force
government employee to contribute; nor if
ne desires to contribute, to compel him to
contribute to this party rather than that.
In regard to the political creeds of which
government employees are mem bers there
is no reason why they should not be Demo
cratic as Wei as Republican. But any of
them will be prosecuted if we have evil
oence OF their trying to force contributions
by intimidation.

Inc managers of the proposed strike re
aIlze ehat the entire telegraph system in
the United States, incluling all sorts of
leased wires and private lines, must be tied
up at one time to attain success. This
would close every commercial exchange in

OHiclals OF the numerous companies

campaign, but assert that they will be i'm

Mrs. Pitman's Life.

New YORK, Oct 30-Mrs. Pitman had
been nearer to Agnes Robertson than per-
haps any other of her children resulting
from the Boucicault marriage George w.
Pitman, of this city, married Patrice
Boucicault at the time her father

Pitman is handsome man without means
1t was supposed by his acquaintances tina,

however, was said to be anything but
happy.
Mr.. Pitman appears to be about thirty
three years of age. His hair and ewes are
dark, and his moustache is the prominent
feature of his appearance. The fascination
of his presence seemed to have vanished
from Patrice Boucicaults life when, not
long ago, she went to live with her for
saken mother in London. To an old friend
IN LONDON Mrs. Pitman recently remarked
that since her husband had heard of her
delicate health he had contributed only $40
to her support. Only once since she be-

concerts IN Boston Music hall, when she
gave recitation. Dion Boucicault's sar

go on the stage.

Justin Dynamite Shell Experiments.

UTICA, N. Y, Oct. 3O.-Another expert
ment with Justin'a dynamite cartridge was
made at Perryville to day. The shell was
similar to the one used last time, excepting it
was bored out of solid steel and had no
blow holes, and was q of an inch instead
OF Is of an inch in thickness. A 12-ton
Blakely rife was used, similar to the two
that.burst in the previous experiments
The shell weighed 275 pounds and con-
tanned nine pounds of sand instead of dyna-
mite. The charge was thirty pounds of
hexagonal powder. The shell was fired
into sand bank at distance of thirty
yards, and was recovered almost intact.
The shell was opened and testified to the
correctness of Justin's theory of the late
explosions in the gun. Another test will
be made with the same shell and on the
third test dynamite will again be used.

Generol Ruger's Report.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-General Ruger,
commanding the department of Dakota.
has submitted to the war department his
annual report. Ruger says there is no
reason in general to apprehend molestation
of settlers upon the coded lands of the Sioux
reservation, even by the most disaffected
Indians, if the latter are kept under mill
tary observation for time at few points
where friction will most likely result from
the settlements.
Respecting the threatened trouble at Flat
head lake, Montana, he says it appears upon
inquiry there is little probability of serious
trouble; that the enforcement by the civil
officers of the statute prohibiting the sale
of liquor to Indians and half-breeds is the
principal necessity of the case. He approves
the post canteen system.

What Tippu Tbs Secretary Saws

BRUSSELS, Oct. 30. -TBy cable to the New

had an interview with the Belgian
Lieutenant Baert, who was Tippu This
secretary at the time of the Emin relief
expedition. He was a frequent visitor at
Barttelot's camp and was president of the
Stanley falls court-martial which tried
Sanga, Barttelot's murderer. Lieut.. Baert
says SANKEY'S statement that anv English
jury would have acquitted Sanga seems to
be an impeachment of the court-martial,s
fairness. The real fact is that during the

anger, thrust his gun against BarttelOt,s
breast and fired. The savage needsd no
stronger motive than the aforesaid slight
provocation to murder Barttelot, because
he expected that, according to Manyeu1na
customs, he would not be sentenced to
more than pecuniary penalty for taking

so much ingrained in Sanga's mind that
when he learned he was really going to he
shot he shrieked and swooned. Stanlev,s
insinuations that Sanga was impelled by
greater and fouler provocatons may rest
upon secret reports, which he probably be-
lieved true, but which are shown to be
false by Sanga's own confession.

his interactable character and thereby

revolvers under their pillows fearing each
