MULHATTAN IN LIMBO

"Orange BLOSSOM the Monumental Fab
ricator of the Century, Behind the Bars
in Pittsburgh Charged with Larceny
The Stolen Money Found on His Person.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, Nov. IL. - Jos.
Mulhattan, well known the country
over as Orange Blossom" the writer
of some of the most startling and mar
velously untrue stories ever published,
is behind the bars at Central police
station. this city, charged with larceny.
Patrick O'Toole, young railroad man,
who met Mulhattan for the first time
Tuesday night, makes the charge.
O'Toole and Mulhattan met in Grant
street saloon, and soon became the
best of friends. They remained to-
gether until too late for O'Toole to
catch his train. O'Toole readily ac-
copied Mulhattan's invitation to share
his room and bed.
Yesterday morning when O'Toole
awoke Mulhattan was missing, also a
roll of money from his pockets. O'Toole
complained to the police, and Mulhut-
tan was soon under Arrest. but denied
taking any money from his friend. The
exact amount missing was found, how
ever, in Mulhattan's possession.
Before being locked up Mulhattan
appealed to the inspector to be re-
leased, and said: 81 am the only
Orange Blossom the greatest liar in
the world
Il do not think that your reputation
will aid you much now" replied the of
ficer, as he turned the key in Mulhat-
tan's cell.

A Natural Inference.

It was Saturday afternoon, and time
that little Mary should begin the prep
aration of her Sunday-school lesson;
but, unfortunately, she was deeply en-
gagged in designing a new and especial
ly elaborate tea-gown for her oldest
doll, who, so Mary thought, had reached
time of life when a tea-gown could no
longer be dispensed with.
Her mother several times called the
attention of the busy little dress-maker
to the advanced hour of the afternoon;
and finally her older sister, taking a
Bible from the bureau, said: Come,
Mary, I'll help you learn your lesson.
and then you can go back to your play"
Mary came over to her sisters side.
ready to begin the lesson, when sudden
~ she exclaimed: Sister, let's study it
out of grandpa's Bible
but what difference can it make?"
'Why, grandpa's Bible is so much
more interesting than yours
''Oh no, Mary. they are just the same
exactly"
Well" replied the observing girl,
who probably had no thought of rebuk-
ing any body. Il really think grandpa's
must be more interesting than yours;
he reads it so much more. YOUTH

OPIUM SMUGGLING

Gigantic Scheme for Defrauding the
Revenue Discovered by New York Gus
toms Ofncials-A Number of Wholesale
Druggists Involved-Some Important Ar
rests Expected to be Made.
NEW YORK, Nov. lathe customs
officials are somewhat perturbed over
| the discovery of wholesale system of
opium smuggling which they have sud-
denly discovered. The drug, it is said.
has been brought across the Cana dian
border in large amounts for some time
past, and officials of the custom house
are now in that country investigating
the matter.
AT the custom house, while it was adj
mitted that large amount of opium
has been seized, the officials are very
reticent They say, however, that
they will make the full details of the
seizure known to-day. When the Off
GERS, who are now in Canada investi-
eating the matter, arrive, it is proba bic
that wholesale arrests will be made,
in connection with the smuggling of
poisons, on this side of the border. Six
at least of the men engaged in the
traffic are now in this city. Their ar
rest may take place at any moment.
One man, said to be Canadian, is now
in custody. ALI information concern
ing him is denied reporters 1t is
now thought that the opium traffic has
been started by some of the opium
growers in India. The Indian mer-
chants first sent the drug to Canada
and it has been Struggled across the
border into the United States.
In addition to having agents in Cam
ada, two or three we'll educated natives
from Bombay arrived in this city some
three months ago. They ostensibly
came on some other business, but the
real object of their visit is believed to
have been the completion of an elabo-
rate arrangement for increasing the
opium traffic in this country. AS the
flrst attempts at smuggling proved SO
successful, it was determined to operate
on larger scale. The ramifications of
the scheme are intricate and ingenious,
but with the information already in the
hands of the treasury officials, an eff
fectual stop, it is believed, will be put
to opium smuggling.

INDICATED BY THE ELECTIONS.
Probable Complexion of the Electora
Knfo No,

Probable Complexion of the Electoral
Vote Next Year.
1t could not be expected the repub-
iicans would concede more than that
the result of the recent voting is indie
cisive and affords them a hopeful out
look for the presidential election. 1t
requires activity of the imagination
and ignoring of impalatable facts for
them to extract party comfort from the
situation Gov. Russell says his cleo
ton means that Massachusetts, is for
tariff reform and democratic lines, and
Gov. Boies insists that Iowa can be
held by the democrats In both of these
states the republicans were exhorted
to vote in view of their assignments
for 1892. Their efforts were prodigious
to leave no doubt as to the standing of
the states in the general bout They
must be conceded to be uncertain and
to be carried only by tremendous eff
fort. For the republicans they are in
dispensable. The democrats do not
need them to succeed.
Democrats coucede Ohio to the repub-
licans next year, although they have
been unable under the most favora BILE
circumstances to reach 10000 majority.
The democrats have just swept New
York by good deal more than double
the republican majority in Ohio. 1t
would be absurd to class the latter as
republican next year and not give New
York to the democrats. With the latter
in the democratic column, it is easy to
figure out majority of the electoral
vote. 1t is evident from the voting
done in Maryland, Virginia, and other
southern states That they will all be
carried by the democrats next year.
They have 159 electoral votes. New
Jersey has just indicated that it is
more strongly democratic than ever.
Connecticut is equally safe. Indiana
gave over 20, 900 majority for the demo
Gratis in vote of much political sig
nifcance last year. The recent vote
at Indianapolis, the home of the presi-
dent, was more democratic than usual,
and a sign of the popular drift. There
can be no rational republican hope of
carrying Indiana in the national cleo
ton. Thea New York, Indiana, New
jersey and Connecticut have 81
electoral votes, which. added to the 159
from the south, give 226 out of 444, or
three more than enough to elect. Not

garded as doubtful on the present IS
sues. Not one of them would have
been lost to the democrats had they all
voted on the Sd. If the captious par
tisan insists that Harrison will be the
candidate, and make his own state
doubtful. there are seven votes in
Michigan certain for the democrats,
and Montana has three and Rhode
Island four that are classed as demo-
cratic. These will make 225 without
Indiana, Or two more than enough to
elect Wisconsin will have II votes
1t gave the democrats some $4,000 last
year and certainly cannot be claimed
as a sure republican state. On the
whole. the democrats have reason to
feel extremely complacent over the
political situation as indicated by the
recent voting. The straws pointing in
their direction are of the sturdy texture
that allow birds of promise to roost up
on them. Paul Globe.

THE SITUATION.
Facts Developed by the Recent State
Elections.

| Facts Developed by the Recent State
Elections.
The noise of great conflict dies
away and the flag of a true and I'M
daunted democracy has been carried
forward In New York, on issues
chiefly national, the party has united
in the support of an excellent candi-
date, with the result that everything is
ours. In Massachusetts,, after a stub
born fight, a democrat is for the second
time chosen governor, the victory be-
ing due to the demand of the people
for freer trade. In Iowa, a democrat
elected two years ago by an accident,
as it seemed, is successful again by an
increased majority on an increased
vote, and probably carries the entire
state ticket with one exception with
him. In Ohio Mr.. Mckinley, the very
embodiment of protection, the chief ben
efactor of trusts, rings and subsidy
hunters, unites all elements of his own
party. concentrates the forced and vol
untary contributions of ten thousand
manufacturers, and in the face of dem
ocratic dissensions succeeds in his can
vass by a majority which is not so
much victory a presage of APP
preaching disaster.
Let us make no mistake about the
situation; the battle is not won. it is
only begun. Republicans find their
lines of communication assaiIed, and
they will not in 1892 be able to concen-
trate their forces in two states. Never
theless they will contest every inch of
ground with stubborn determination,
and they are we'll entrenched, and we'll
supplied with the sinews of war
Democrats have a fighting chance, no
more, in Massachusetts, and in Iowa.
Had the democratic candidate for gov
ernor in Iowa delivered the speeches
on silver which united the party in
Massachusetts,, he could not have won.
Had the democratic candidate for gov
ernor in Massachusetts, dealt with
silver as it was dealt with in Iowa he
would have been defeated In both
Massachusetts, and Iowa the people are
thoroughly aroused on the question of
tariff reform. 1t is an issue which
u2ites the democrats of every section
of the union. For it the leaders of the
party have since 1876 contended with
great courage, with great wisdom, and
under much encouragement. At last
victory is within our reach. The
whole organization, from Massachu-
sets to Texas, is inspired with en-
thusiasm and supported by the hope of
victory. On this issue, and on this
issue alone, can democrats every
where be brought face to face in solid
phalanx with the republican hosts. 1t
is no time now for new issues or for
the discussion of questions involving
another educational campaign. Louis
