VERMoNT's DIRECT TAX.-It is pro-
bable that the opinion of the attor-
ney7general relative to the direct tax
of Vermont will be rendered within a
week. The comptroller in the first
instance made up an opinion to the
effect that the United States would
probably be justified in paying to the
State OF Vermont through the secre-
rotary of the treasury all the di-
rect. tax except about S143, 900
which Vermont received and turned
into her treasury for the sale ofarms,
etc. The comptroller later modified
that opinion somewhat and in favor
of Vermont but did not in the second
instance or in the first give any def
mite decision although his arguments
We're elaborate and general. At this
stage of affairs the whole responsible
ty was shifted to the department of
justice for an opinion and there the
matter now rests with a fair promise
that it will be settled soon. 1t is
being worked by a most competent
officer of the department and will in
a few days be placed before the attor-
ney-general to decide for or against
the State of Vermont. The comp
troller and officers of the depart |

How Ii Is In XRrnnOnt-

Governor Page of Vermont is hav-
ing the heats of summer premature
ly thrust on him by the red-hot
scramble for the senatorial seat made
vacant by the resignation of Sena-
tor Edmunds. The st. Johnsbury
CaledOnfan discussing the race sums
up the situation as follows
" A three-cornered fight between Proctor,
Stewart and Powers might come up and Gov
ernOr Page might keep out of it by appoint
ing new man for the short term and let
ting the next legislature decide the question.
In that case p. K Geed might be appointed,
and if this is done an excellent choice would
be made. If an extra session of the legisla-
ture is called the interesting question at
once arises whether-or not senator can be
chosen before Senator Edmunds' term ex-
pires. -
Kansas people will be glad to know
that Governor Page is a man ofclear
head and abundant nerve, and is not
likely to try to fill the big Edmunds
chair with a whiffet or a fraud. YER
mont, though little, has long been
loud by reason of her able and dig
nified representatives in public life.

America has had arather unprepos
sessing view the past week of high
life and royalty in England. A party
at an English country house, the
Prince of Wales one of the guests; the
prince introducinginto that circle the
gambling game of bacarat, the i'm
PIGMENTS for which he carried about
with him, although it was known that
the head of the house objected to
having the game played there; and a
man of the highest reputation as a
soldier, a man with everything to
lose and nothing to gain by such a
performance, detected cheating at
this innocent little game in the pres
ence of his highly moral prince; and
then the amount of lying that must
have been done, however you look at
it, and the queer ideas of honor that
were brought out in connection with
it,-altogether a startling and nun-
pleasant picture. Many lessons can
be drawn from it which will occur to
anyone with a turn for moralizino:
but the first thought to an American
is thsI1Iofu1ness that we have no idle
prince royal on our hands to 90
about debauching our young men
and putting upon the deed the seal
and sanction of divine right"

Cropa in New York.

ROCHESTER, N. Y, June 9.-The Demo
GRAFT and Chronicle has authentic reports
from forty-eight fruit-growing districts of
western New York, which gives a most
discouraging outlook for fruit this
season. The apple crop is again, for the
third successive year, almost a complete
failure. OF 5000 trees in one Wayne
county orchard only 800 blossomed. Re
ports from Lockport, Medina, Albion,
Batavia, Attica and Mt. Morris all tell the
same story of short crop. In the Tona-
wanda valley frosts have destroyed the
entire crop. Niagara county will not have
fifth of an average crop because of frosts
and apparent exhaustion of the trees. The
crop of Bartlett pears will be insignificant.
A fair yield of Duchesse d'Angouteme
pears and good crop of white cherries in
some localities may be looked for. The

well and II. full crop is certain. But al
together, the prospect is bad and fruit

a pretty profitless business.

WITH SPLENDOR AND POMP
Ceremonies Attending tho Unveiling of a
Statue of Pope Leo XIII.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S.-A memorable
occasion in the history of the Catholic
church in America, equalled in importance
only by the celebration in November,
1889, of the centennial of the Catholic hier-
archy in the United States, was the un-
yelling OF the magnificent marble statue
of Pope Leo XIII, which took place to-
day. Almost the entire Catholic hier-
archy is present, as this week the church
celebrates with unusual pomp, the CEN
tenary of st. Sulpice at Baltimore. The
statue, which is the gift of Joseph de
Lombat, arrived at the university early in
August. Mr.. Lombat is a wealthy New
Yorker, we'll known in society and club
circles. For this work he chose, Joseph
Ruchitti, one of the best of the modern
school of Italian sculptors, who labored on
the massive block of pure Carrark, a
whole year, under Mr.. Lombat's per-
sonal supervision. A clay model having
been submitted to the pope, and approved
by him. The statute is OF the size
known to sculptors as semi-colossal
and represents the pope seated on
the pOntifcal throne, vested in
the cassock, ule, stole and cape; on his
head is the tiara or triple crown.
The face is benign and the whole figure
and attitude majestic. A duplicate OF this
statue is to be presented by Count Loubat
to the town of C8rpeneto, the popes
birthplace.
