not thoroughly believe.
Mr. Goschen, Chancellor of the En-

the Ministers deem them opportune.
Although Minister Won Gossler showed
no intention during yesterdays debate in

Gated the desire Of the Government TO
sweep away the last traces of the May

therefore, good.

NEWSPAPER LIARS
Grow Thick in New York-The Truth

Grow Thick in New Iork-The Truth
About the Cleveland Dana Trouble.
New YORK, April 19.-EX-President
Cleveland refuses to say anything fur
ther in regard TO the Suns bitter edi-
torial attack of him this morning. The
Evening Post says editorially last night,
and with the authority of Mr.. Cleve-
land. that the eX-President was miSrep-
resented in the Worlds interview which
provoked the Suns editorial. The
WOrld reporter, says the Post. called
Mr.. Clcveland's attention TO an article
in the Sun, and this is what he said and
all he said in answer:
Il have not" said Mr.. Cleveland,
''seen the article you refer to-, and if IL
appears nowhere else hut in the Sun
there is not the least chance of my see
ing it. OF course the entire thing is a
lie, without the slightest preteXt to eX-
cuse it. judge, from what you say,
that the venerable editor of the Sun
suppoSes he has at last hit upon sub
ject which can be used TO annoy me-
In this he is mistaken. He must be his
own Judge of social decencieS and pro-
prieties. | am not sure that he should
at this time of life, and in his peculiar
mental condition, be moested in his
amusement
In no part of his interview with the
World reporter did Mr.. Cleveland refer
either directly or indirectly to any at
tackS which the sun had made on his
wife, and he did not, as the reporter
represented him, call Dana a ''Senile
old liar and thief" In view of these
facts, the SUMS editorial in which Mr.
Cleveland is abusively accused Of hiding
behind his wife's skirts is without the
slightest justification. Commenting on
the whole affair the Evening Post says
that Mr. Cleveland said just the right
thing in reply to the Suns original ly-
ing article about him, and only the mis-
representations of another paper enabled
the sun to make any reply whatever.
