BUFFALO, N. Y, Dot. HAIRY E.
Hopkins, alias Z. H. CORY was ar
rested by detectives here on warrants
sworn out in New York charging him
with grand larceny. 1t is said that
Hopkins was educated for q lawyer and
admitted to the bar of the Supreme
Court of this State. His dissipated
habits, however, brought him to the
grade of q common criminal. He COM
mitted a serious offense some time ago
in New York, and to save himself fed
to Texas, where he remained until he
supposed all had blown over, and then
returning, he committed other thefts.

WATCHING RlRCHALL.
A Belief that He win Cheat the GAIlows
by Committing Suicide.

by Committing Suicide
WOODSTOCK, Ont, Oct, l.-BirchAll's
cell was carefully searched In every
nook and corner for poison or any
weapon with which he might make
away with himself, aud his clothing
were subjected to the same microscopic
examination. From this time on he
will be watched night and day.
No one is allowed to see BirchSl1
without an order from the sheriff. tThe
strictest watch Is kept over him. Many
believe he will cheat the gallows yet by
committing suicide.
Jailer Cameron and the sheriff held .
consultation to determine some line o f
conduct with reference to Birchalps
management. Mr.. Cameron is strongly
in favor of allowing his wife just one
more final interview. He thinks 1t
will be better for Birohall, and above
all better for Mrs. Birchall. He will
advise her strongly to go back at once,
in company with her sister, to England.
So long as she is in the same
atmosphere with Birshall she is under
his influence, and so long as she lie
under that influence she will grieve to
the point of putting her life in peril.
Birohall broke down and wept Pro-
fusely when told his wife tainted when
she learned of his conviction.

THE supreme court of Wyoming holds
that kleptomania is not a ground for
dissolving the marriage tie. Whether or
not this be species of insanity, it does
not affect the reason or cloud the under
standing to the extent of rendering the
victim incapable of compromising the
nature and obligations of the marital
contract. 1t was claimed on behalf of
petitioner for divorce that the conceal
ment of the atfliction from him was a
fraud that vitiated the marriage. The
court admitted that there were de-
ceptions which would have this effect.
"But, said Judge Vanderburgh, "gen-
orally speaking, concealment or decep.
ton by one of the parties in respect to
traits or defect of character, habits,
temper, reputation, bodily health and
the like is not sufficient ground for an
nulling marriage. The parties must
take the burden of information them
selves by acquaintance and satisfactory
inquiry before entering into a contract
of the first importance to themselves
and to society in general" This is
reasonable. If people could get I'M
married because they found they had
been deceived before marriage it would
unset society.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-The impression
seems to prevail that Congress will ad-
journ late this afternoon. The Tariff
bill was sent to the President at l
o'clock, and he will be able to notify
the House that it has been signed about
4. Then nothing will intervene between
the two houses and an adjournment. 1t
10 possible that the President will not
sign the bill in time to permit an ad-
iournment this evening. vice-Presi-
dent Morton said that Congress would
djourn sure this afternoon.

WASHINGTON, Oct, This being the
last day of the session, the members o Z
the House fairly tumbled over one an.
other to rush through bills in which
they were particularly interested.
From the hour that Speaker Reed called

jammed with Representatives clamor-
Ing for recognition. Many bills were
left upon the Speakers table, either to
die or to be resurrscted in December.

THERE is something appalling in the
multiplication of railroad accidents of
late. They have become almost epidemic.
Day after day ,one casualty after another
is recorded, and the loss of life and the
list of the wounded in them all must
iun up to the dimensions of more than
one of the conflicts of the battlefield
shat have a place in history. The disas-
tiers from this source have been so fire.
quent and so fatal this year as to call for
united and special attention from those
who have the direction of railroad trains
from one end Of the land to the other. 1t
does not seem probable that so many
casualties can be attributed to a coinci-
dence;tfso, it is one without parallel; but
the indications are rather that new pre-.
cautions are needed to be taken.

THE most telling condemnation of the
Mckinley tariff Of 1890 comes from the
findings of the tariff commission of 1888,
in which it was declared that "a sub
stantial reduction of tariff duties is de-
manded, not by mere indiscriminate
popular clamor, but by the best con-
sentative opinion of the country, in
Guiding that which has been most
strenuous for tho preservation of our
national industrial defenses." The re-
port from which this extract is made
was prepared by Robert P. Porter as
secretary of the tariff commission, and
signed by all the members Of that body,
including Henry w. Oliver, who now
poses as an industrial champion of the
Mckinley act.

THERE is no hope for the public build.
ing bill for Waterbury this session. Joe
Cannon, chairman of the committee on
appropriations, is quoted as saying :;
Nothing will be done about public
buildings at this session, but they will
all so through during the short session"
This means bad faith to somebody in
the country. 1t is evident that Mr. Can
mons committee intend to make a show
ing of economy to the rural voters of the
country and at the same time they will
try to hold the city voters by promising
them something after election" The
appropriation of millions of government
money, in other words, is not put upon
business basis. 1t is simply matter
of politics under this administration.
