Washington special reads as follows: A
dispatch from Washington published in
The New York World makes some
startling charges against the census

evidence which duplicates one congress

clerks in the census Office, in an
Attempt to Defraud Many States
out of their legitimate congressional
representation. Its charges are very
direct, the names of four census clerks
being given. The article charges that
a secret Office was fitted up at 206 D
street, where clerks were detailed to
alter the true census returns by scaling
down and increasing totals to fit the po-
htical ideas of the managers of the
scheme. The article
Makes Ten Specific Charges,
among them being the following: That
an order was given an official in the
census Office with or without the
knowledge and approval of the high
authorities in this government to reduce
the true census of New York state $780,
600. That the State of New Hampshire,
which has lost population, was to be
scaled up so that its present quota Of
congressional representation should not
be changed. That Illinois, Iowa, Wis
cOnsin and Minnesota were to be

and that the blunders in Minneapolis
and St. Paul arose from stupid inter-
probation of instructions. That this in
famous job has, to large extent been
carried out, and that when the re-
searches of The World frightened the
conspirators they removek the secret
Office from No. 200 D street, Washing

weeks the dastardly work has been in

THE PRESIDENT TOOK ADVICE,
No Extra Session of Congress to Be Called

No Extra Session of Congress to Be Called
---The Cabinet Against 1t.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-It Is stated on
good authority that while the president
was much in doubt as to whether or not
he ought to call an extra session of con-
gress, a conclusion has at length been
reached which settles the question in
the negative. The question was consid-
cred at meeting of the cabinet. Blaine,
Window, Wanamaker and Proctor are
said to be strongly against it, and Mr..
Blaine has put himself emphatically on
record on his position. It is said that a
determination was reached that no call
be issued until after election at any
rate, and it is thought hardly likely that
the question will then be seriously con-
sidered.

the finest brands of Havana cigars did
not go on strike, as they are likely to

EX-SECRETARY BELkNAP,

Gen. Grants Chief of the War Depart
ment, Discovered Dead in Bed.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-Gen. William
Belknap, ex-secretaey of war was found
dead in bed in his room in the Evans
building on New York avenue in this
city. The room in which he was found
Joined his Office rooms and was only oc-
cupied by the general during his wife's
absence from the city. Gen. Belknap
was last seen alive on Saturday night
about midnight, when he was on his
way to his rooms, apparently in excel
lent health. Mrs. Belknap, who is in
New York city, has been notified of her
husbands sudden death.
Gen. William Worth Belknap
was born in Newburgh, N. Y, in Sep
TENDER, 1929. He graduated at Prince
ton college in 1S4S and in 1851 he re-
moved to Keokuk, Iowa, where he prac-
ticed law. Gen. Belknap served through
the war beginning his service as major
of an Iowa regiment and at the close
was breveted general. In October, 1869,
he was appointed secretary of war.
This office he retained during Gen.
Grants second administration until
March, 1876, when, in consequence of
charges of official corruption he re-
signed. He was impeached and tried
before the senate for receiving brides
for the appointment of post traders and
wac acquitted on the technical ground
of want of jurisdiction. The coroner's
inquest showed that the general suffered
from fatty degeneration of the heart
and that the immediate cause of his
death was inflammation of the heart.
Will BE Buried at Arlington.
WASHINGTON, Oct. IS. The arrange
ments for the funeral of Gen. Belknap
are not yet completed. 1t has been de-
cided, however, that the funeral will
take place from St. Johns church in
this city and that the general will be
buried at Arlington.
