TOM REED TALKS
About the Surplus and What Has
Become Of 1t.
IT HAS BEEN JUSTLY EXPENDED
By the Party of Moral Ideas for Naught but
the Purestanl Most Patriotic of Purposes
The WicKed Democrats.

Boston, Sept. 3. - Speaker Reed ad-
dressed large audience tonight at
Faneuil hall In the course of his speech
nc said, in part: 1t is amusing to notice the
history of the House of Representatives
and Congress, to see how in detail is car
ried out this principle. That when things
are to be done the Republican party does
them. The great struggle which has been
made by the Democratic Representatives
for years has been, not TO reduce the expen-
ditures of the government, but to
cut down the sum total of the
appropr4 ations. They have been striv-
surplus not merely by taxation, but by
parsimony in their action in the eXpendi-
ture of money AS long as they could point
to the clogging of business which results
from the storing of money in the treasury
they seemed happy but now they are busily
engaged in showing that the surplus has
disappeared. They are unable to be con-
tented either with surplus or Witt
out one. There is no doubt but
what the expenditures of the government
are about to approach the receipts, but any
man would make mistake if he believed
gance or carelessness with the public
money. There has been an advertisement
sent out broadcast of this surplus, and
every human need and want has been set
| together to try to get money out of the
treasury for other than public purposes,
but not one of those schemes has been sue
cessful All expenditure has been legiti-
mate, just and proper. We shall expend
nearly our income. We shall also reduce
taxation to the extent of s., 600, 600 in addi-
ton thereto One great element Of eXpen-
diture is legislation, which is not under
stood in New England and the character Of
it is not fully appreciated with US. The
soldier is comparatively content with what
| he has received and with what is promised
him in the near future, but in the
west there exists a different feeling.
These stories about the past surplus have
set men wild with the idea of service
pension which would bring an emolument
| 10 every man in the service. We have had
to meet not merely the contention of those
who are parsmonicus and not willing to do
what was fair to the soldier, but of
those who wished to do such things
as, with the present revenues of govern
ment, are impossible without bankruptcy
and ruin. The Republican party grapples
with a question and solves it with that
measure of justice which is satisfactory to
the whole people of the country. Have we
met all such questi0nsT'

Chicago Carnentsrs, Strike.

CHICAGO, Sept. 3.-All but 700 of the
striking carpenters who refused to go to
work Tuesday morning are now at work
There is confusion and chaos among the
members of the Carpenters council over
the action of the strike committee in
authorizing return to work of carpenters
who were receiving 3715 cents an hour
This action is criticised by the strikers,
who say the committee exceeded it's
authority President James O'Connell, of
the Carpenters council has resigned be-
cause of the discomfort of the members of
that organization. Employers assert they
have all the men they wants
The trouble in the union arose from the
discomfort of the radicals with the action of
the council allowing men to work for such
bosses as accepted union conditions. The
radicals insisted on an all round strike
while the conservatives, who were in the
majority, argued that their plan was the
best and that it could be followed by gene
raj strike next spring if necessary to hiring

Minister Phelps ON Edmands' Meat Inspection
Rill

berlin, Sept. 3.-Phelps, United States
minister, was interviewed to-day regard
ing Senator Edmunds' meat inspection bill
He said: 'sPublic opinion in Germany is
doing the work for US as rapidly as we
could expect. Different German interests
are bombarding Chancellor Caprivi. So

news is the startling appeal the municipal
authorities of Berlin have just addressed
to the chancellor From April, 1889, to
April, 1890, the city OF Berlin made gain
in population of 10000. According to the
normal rate of consumption, this Increase
in population should cause an increase of
10000 head in the imports of swine, but in
stead of that the imports have decreased
25,0O0, loss to Berlin consumers of 45, 900
head year. Matters have not improved
since the chancellor has withdrawn the
edict excluding Australian pigs. and now
only Russia and America suffer from this
unjust restriction. L expect the prohibition
against Russian swine will soon be re-
moved and then our turn Will come. In the

them. do know that as the great Repub-
l'caa leader he owes it to the great party
whose head he was, either to brand them
as infamous or prove their fa!sity, or to
that party TO stand aside from its leadership
He has not done either, and for this de-
nounce him. The Republican party cannot
afford to follow the lead of branded Grim
inal. He has failed to Justify himself, and
though opportunity and ample time have
been given him, he remains silent. His
silence under such circumstance is a con-
fession of guilt An homo: able man does
not long daily when his honor is assaileo.
He has delayed too long to justify his in
nocency, and stands convicted criminal
before the bar of public opinion. Under
such circumstances he should be driven
from the head of the party whose very life
his presence inperils. The Republican
party has done enough for its pretended
leader; let him be relegated TO the rear it is
no longer question of his vinGication. Ii
is now question of the life of the party

JOURNALISM In LONDON.
A New York Herald Reporter is Arrested
for Stealing News.


Especial to THE acknowledgements cable.
LONDON, Sept. 3.-The zeal OF a reporter
on the London edition of the New York
Herald was the basis of case in the police
court in Birmingham yesterday. The night
OF Cardinal Newman's death a reporter for
the Herald was sent to the house to write
up the particulars. Unable to obtain adj
mittance to the house of mourning, he went
to the editorial rooms of the Post in the
morning and asked the managing editor if
he could get the article on Newman, which
the Post intended to publish next day The
editor having gone, the Herald reporter
tried to DriDe the boy to steal copy of the
Post from the press, but the boy refused,
saying he couldn't have one before 8. as
the papers which were being printed then
were for mail editions only. The repor-
ter then sent the boy with mes
sage to the city editor and while
the boy was on his errand, cut the string
which bound number of copies of next
days Post, and stealing one, ran out Of the
office When the boy returned and found
the reporter gone and the bundle of papers
loose, he Immediately notified the city
editor. The latter went to the telegraph
Office, where he found the reporter filing
the rost story of the cardinals death to the
Herald. When the Post man accused the
Herald reporter of stealing, the latter &C
knowledged it. The Post man next day
wired Louis Jennings, the editor of the
Herald, the circumstances. Jennings
answered saying he did not countenance
such an act and advised the Post people to
have the guilty man punished. The case
came up yesterday. The reporter, who
was charged with the theft was defended
by one of the most famous solicitors OF
London. The solicitor pleaded with the
prosecution and the latter finally agreed to
withdraw the charge provided apologies
were made by the New York Herald an0
the reporter. The magistrate said he was
sorry such a man was employed on such q
paper. The reporter is son of the Ameri
can consul at Alden.
