the surplus which he suggested in 1890. He
ADDED, however, there was no certainty
tnat the progressive increase would be
maintained, as the needs of Ireland had in
reased the expenditure by e200,000.
NO less than $50, 900 of the surplus arose
from internal revenue duty on alcoholic
spirits There has been an increase in con-
sumption during the year of 100000 gal
longs OF homemade spirits. Tobacco had
given an increase of e456,000 and beer
5000. Referring to the reduction OF the
national debt, Goschen said, taking into
consideration the diminished liabilities on
terminable annuities, the net reduction DUR
ing the year was e6, $4,000. making total
reduction of over e30,000,000 during the
time the present administration had been
In office. Cheers.
Abiding to the duties on alcohol, Goschen
repudiated the idea that the government
was pledged TO carry out the scheme OF
purchase OF public house licenses. Ii it
raised the duties, instead OF buying the
license, the money would be assigned to an
excellent purpose-that of technical educa-
ton.
In regard to the coming year,
Goschen estimated the revenue
would amount toi eS0,470,00O and
the expenditures to eS3, 440, 0C0. The ex-
penditures were augmented by Irish relief
WORKS, census ana dock YARD WORKS. Con-
sideriBg the increased costs of armament
and the heavy burden of home taxpayers,
he held that call ought to be made upon
the colonies for further contributions to
the fund for imperial defense. He pro-
poses to apply most of years surplus to
free education cheers, thus redeeming
the pledges of the government. The time
for the production of the education bill
would depend upon the progress
of the land bill. Goschen added
that the increase from alcohol
indicated that the masses were earning
better wages. Signs were apparent, he
said, that the prosperity of the country
was approaching its zenith, but he was moi
apprehensiye of rapid decline. The
Liberal leaders withhold criticism on the
free education project. For the first time
in many years there has been no change il
taxation, yet the budget is fairly well re-
ceived,

A TALE OF LOVE.
A Susceptible Maiden of Some
Forty Summers
Tells Detective AdOnis All she Knows About
the Kidnapping of the Niles Children
Then He Threw Her Love Away.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
SPR1NGF1ELD,O O., April 23.-The detectives
made public to-day, the details of the
clever plot by which the Springfield child
stealers who kidnapped the Niles children
and took them to Michigan, were made to
confess. AS soon as tn Niles children
were stolen from the residesse. of Mrs.
Bachelor, the detectives at once came to
the conclusion that the guilty party must
be in that house. The Bachelor house is
double, and in the other half resides Miss
Ellen Talbot, a susceptible maiden OF forty
years Of age. Miss Talbot was suspected
The detectives knew it was OF little use TO
approach the auburn haired little dress
maker in an ordinary way, so they con-
cluded to do it through the tende- passion.
A young detective, who is quite an AdOliS,
put in an appearance at the Talbot man
sion with the request that he be shown
rooms for rent there Miss Talbot in
formed him that she had no rooms for rent.
He was very polite and she took quite an
interest in him. Finally this brief ac-
quaintance became more intimate. He in
vited her to attend the theatre and go rid
ing with him. To this she consented.
During some OF their numerous converse
tions he confided IN her that he was grass
widower. The detective masher left the
impression that when he was again free he
might offer his new friend his heart and
hand. He exchanged photographs with
her. ALI at once he seemed to take great
interest in the Niles case. He took the
part of DR.. Niles strongly and asked Miss
Talbot if she thought he had taken the
children. She replied with a knowing look.
Little by little she told the whole story,
how she had taken the children to the
Cutters, at lonely country place near
| Springfield. As soon as Miss Talbot had
told her adorer what she knew, he reported
| to his employers and the entire plot was
laid bare and the guilty parties were soon
under lock aud key.

Italian Unionists Attack Non-Unionists.

New YORK, April 23.-The organized
Italian stone masons to-day caused good
deal of trouble in the upper end of the city
They struck work to-day on a dema nd of
eight hours time with nine hours pay.
President Gompers, of the Federated
trades, announced to them they could easily
accomplish their demand. This morning
they went to several houses" and induced
some of the non-unionists to quit work
Finally, however, they struck building
on One Hundred and Thirty-ffth street
where large number of Italian non-union
masons were employed and they refused to
quit. The strikers drew stilettoes and
picked up stones, and were about to raid
the place, when the non-union men drew
revolvers. The strikers then contented
themselves with firing volley of stones.
A dangerous riot was imminent, when a
force of police came up and arrested a
dozen of the men. Another small riot was
started few blocks away and more arrests
were made there.

Baron Faya's Report.

PARIS, April GA dispatch to the
Temps from Rome says Baron F'ava, in his
report on the New Orleans affair, expresses
the belief that there is no way out of the
situation, as the federal government has
no power to give Italy the satisfaction de-

member of the deputies, presided to-day
over large meeting of his constituents

The Detroit Street Car Strike

DETROIT, April 23.-The street roads are
all tied up this morning. Last night the
rails were torn up in places on most lines of
the city, and barricades, blocks inalength,
were put on the rails. The police depart
ment is totally unable to cope with the
trouble, as the men are dispersed in
crowds all over the city. The company
insist they could run the cars if proper
protection were afforded them, as they
have more than enough applications to fill
the vacant places.
Employees of the Michigan and Detroit
stove works, to the number of about three
thousand, who yesterday gave notice that
they would not work to-day, are mingling
with the strikers and encouraging the men
in every way. While the street car company
and its employees are there trying to settle
their differences, the public suffers
greatly as there is no mode of conveyance.
The strikers have the sympathy of the peo-
pie, who in many instances, when cars
haye been run since the beginning of the
trouble, refused to ride on them. 1t is ex-
pected there will be considerable trouble
during the night as excitement is running
very high smong the men.
At conference this evening it was de-
cided to give the street car company the
support of the entire police department as
well as the sheriff's force TO enable them TO
run cars. This evening ten cars started on
| Woodward avenue. The first one manned
by police went along all right. The next
one was not guarded and was quickly
thrown on its side in the gutter. No more
cars were run then, but the first one out
continued up the street. When it started
to return from the end of the route a man
in heavy cart blockaded the
track until the police force ar
rested him. The car was followed
by shower of stones as it drove off. Then
an attempt was made to bring up a Car
which had been lying at Jefferson avenue
ferry all day. A great mob collected and
all sorts of distractions were placed across
the track. The police could not keep the
way clear. Finally Treasurer Hendr1e of
| the street car company. went on the front
platform with the driver and drawing re-
volver, pointed it at the mob. immediately
a shout of kill him." went up and a
fusilade of stones and everything
that could be picked up was
levelled at the car. Hendrie gave up, and
the car started back to the river. The
strikers followed and unhitching the
horses tried to run the car into the river
The police made strong stand here, how
ever, and charged the mob with vigor. For
a time it looked like serious riot but the
police effected number of arrests, and q
heavy rain coming up thinned out the
crowd. AS no more attempts were made
to run cars, all is now quiet.
Tonight small gangs of strikers congre
gated in various parts of the city. The
street car tracks are being torn up il
places and barricades built in others. The
police are on the continual move, but the
strikers evade them. Toll morrow prom
ises to be quiet, as the company has de
cided, upon the advice of the mayor, not tt
attempt to run cars.

THE OUTLOOK

spouse to question on the political out
look, Mr.. Watterson said to correspond
ent: GAS to the political situation from
the Democratic standpoint, it seems to me
that it is most encouraging. L do not be-
lieve we shall have anything serious to ap-
prehend from an overwhelming majority
in the next Congress. That majority
knows perfectly well it was not sent to
Washington to commit excuses of any
kind After the selection Of speaker and
the organization of the committees, it will
go to work on an act repeating the most
odious features of the Mckinley bill and
embodying Democratic ideas of revenue re.

made"
"What about Mr.. Cleveland"
''The nomination of Mr.. Cleveland de-
ponds entirely upon the attitude of the

Stephens Says the Cleveland Interview was
Embelilshed.

ST. LOUIS, April Estate Treasurer
Stephens, who has returned from New
York, when asked this morning about the
published interview between himself and
ex-President Cleveland in reference to the
policy Of Cleveland on the silver question,
said: 81 had not the slightest idea Cleve-
would have any objection whatever to use
being made of what he said"
Stephens was asked if the reports that
appeared were accurate. He replied: Not
by any means. / did not write line of the
interview that appeared in the New York
papers, nor did see it after it was written
until it appeared in print. 1t contained
much that Cleveland said, but also much
that be did not say, and if l had known just
what its tenor was to be, would have re-
moved many embellishments. Cleveland
did not announce himself as candidate,
but spoke as private citizen. When
asked him what he would do in case he was
elected President and free coinage bill
was presented to him, he laughed and
turned the question by saying it was long
time until 1894. / would prefer not to par
ticularize the mistakes in the account of
my interview with him further than to state
If it had been submitted to me l would have
: struck out one half ofit'
Mr.. Stephens said that the statement thu
he went to New York as the representative
of anybody TO see Cleveland, is a misrep-
resentation. He says, among other things,
he asked Mr.. Cleveland if he was Presi-

passed by the Democratic party by a large
majority. 81 am private citizen" re-

SHOOTING RIOTERS
Sheriff Mccormick Shoots Several
in Self Defense.
DETROIT STREET CAR STRIKE
1t Assumes Serious Aspect-No Cars Running
Italian Stone MasOns in New York
Making Trouble.

UNIoNTowN, Pa. April 23.-This was
day of excitement in the coke region. A
serious riot occurred at Monarch this
morning, and another with seven killed was
reported late this afternoon. Fortunately,
however, the latter report proves to be
without foundation. This morning Sheriff
Mccormick and deputies, who had fight
at Adelaide yesterday, went to Leis-
enering to evict ten families of
striking Huns. The military accompa-
MED them, but remained some distance
away from the houses. When the writ of
eviction was read to Thomas Tarr, that
man declined to get out and siezing an axe,
detied the sheriff. A crowd of three or
four hundred men and women collected at
once and berated the sheriff and deputies
In the strongest language they could COM
mand. Then Mrs. Andy Blashko rushed
oat with pistol in her hand and made
dive for the sheriff. Just as she was about
to fire at his breast, he struck the revolver
down with his left hand and at the same
time fired at her. He received a painful
wound in the left ankle while the woman
was shot in the feshy part of the leg
Her husband then made a dash at McCor
mick with club but the sheriff taking de-
liberate aim, shot him in the left ankle
McCormick's blood was now up and with
q big revolver in each hand he stood with
his back against the house and informed
| the people that the first one who moved to-
ward him, would be shot. Martin Scroupka
rushed at the sheriff with a huge club but
quickly reiterated with a bullet in his
mouth which knocked out several teeth.
Tarr then rushed at the sheriff with an ak
but retreated again before the revolvers.
| Then the militia came up on the double
quick and the rioters dispersed. The
evictions were soon completed. The work
will be resumed tomorrow by the sheriff,
with every prospect of more trouble.
Martin Scroupka is in critical condition,
but the other wounded will recover.
