In an interview with . Leader re-
porter yesterday, Hon. At s. White Is
represented IS having said, in speak
ing OF the customary visit of legislative
committees to State institutions;
"rhc constitution, 1 understand, con-
tains no warrant tor such An expense,
although the custom has become al
most legal by long standing. If the
committee report against the junket
that part of the legislative program
will De omitted, and it will save the
State several thousands OF dollars"
The honorable gentleman is looking
at the constitution with his little spy-
glass reversed. IL he will turn his
glass around and take . good equint,
he will SEQ that the legislative depart
ment, of which he is . bright and
shining member, can do anything not
prohibited by the State or federal con-
stitution. IL can send tie honorable
gentleman from Kent, with commit.
tee at his heels, to measure the height
of the North Pole and pay the expense
out of the State Treasury, If it deems
such measurement important to be as
certained. When the gentleman from
Kent 10 interviewed again, he shouldn't
allow an ignorant reporter to put so
many careless statements into bis
mouth.

MORE THIEVES
Captured Just as They Were About to
Take All in the House

Captured just ~ They Were About 70
Take All in the House
The epidemic of thieving and burg.
larry which has been passing over this
city this season. has fortunately been
accompanied by an epidemic of sharp
sagacity on the part of the detective
force. Joe Smiths eagle eye spotted q
couple of fellows on Canal-st. yester-
day, whose capture will prove a bless
ing TO all persons who have anything
that can be stolen. The names of the
arrested men are Charles Neendorf and
Frank Chapman, husband OF the motor
ious Veronica.
Neendorf and Chapman are impli-
Gated in various independent trans
actions, any one of which is sufficient
to send them over the road fora term OF
years. The men were wanted for burg
lsrIzing Plumb's store and the post.
Office at Mill Creek. Another piece OF
their work was the theft of all the con-
tents of a furnished house belonging TO
man named Frost, on the Plainiield-
ave. road. 1t appears that Frost had
vacated his own house and had gone to
live with son, two miles distant, leaving
all the furniture IN the house Just as il
was. The two men now under arrest
went and took possession quietly of
that house, and made it the basis OF
op. ratlons in the neghborhood. Sher.
III Mcqueen and Joe Smith worked up
the case. and when they visited the
Frost house, the found singular state
of things. The kitchen had been made
a regular slaughter house for chickens
Feathers and entrails and chick 4
heads abounded, and the depletions OF
stock which have occurred in neigh
boring chicken coops lead TO the belief
that the chickens were not Matched in
the kitchen where they died. But the
astonishing feature of this raid is thai
the thieves had packed up all the good,
In the Frost mansion, with q view r.
convenient transportation. Chapman
was intending to 60 TO housekeeping
with his Veronica on a scale OF luxur,
the lady had never known before. Blu
cruel Joe Smith and the sheriff hav,
gone in and broken ND the family. Joe
says the new sheriff is gong TO be &
hustler on the criminal trail.

Secretary FOsTER's doctored Treasury
report, summarized in another column,
shows that the revenues Of the Govern
meut for the fiscal year ended June 80
were s45s,544,233.O3, aud the expendl-
lures, S42I, 5O4, 47O46, leaving a surplus
of S37, 239, 762.57. The revenues for the
present year are estimated at S433,OOO,
600 and the expenditures at S4O0, 600, 600,
leaving an estimated surplus Of $4,000
600. He figures out cash balance Of
SI39, 2s,145.63 on June 30, 1892. 1t is
estimated that the revenues for 1898
win be 1856, 1886, 35O.44 and the expendl
lures SAL, 300O95.61.
The Secretary is enabled to make this
showing, and to figure out surplus,
through ths holding back Of payments,
q trick that has been referred to from
time to time by the REGISTER and is
fully understood.
Applying the principle of book-keep-
ing that has been used by former Secre-
tEries, instead of a surplus, the actual
results will show a deficit of something
like S9OO0O,OO0.
Mr.. Fosters new system Of book
keeping is a handy method Of covering
up the tracks Of REEDS spendthrift
Congress.

CnIsP. MnLs - 80 TARTFF.

The most earnest and vigorous sup
porters of Mr.. Mills have acquiesced
with good grace in the selection of MIR.
CRISP for Speaker. Like Mr.. CRISP,
himself, they believe it to be "no step
backward in tariff reform" All Of Mr..
CRISP'S votes In Congress on the tariff
question have been counted on the side
ON which Mr.. MILLS voted. Here is an
extract from one Of his speeches in the
House last year in opposition TO the
Mckinley bill:
can suggest a plan Of relief for the
farmers " five minutes. Modify the eN-
listing tariff laws; reduce taxation per
NIT some reasonable competition ia the
market; destroy trusts; accord equal
rights 70 all and special privileges to none.
DO these things, and YOU viii help him.
Give the farmer free salt. That would
help little You give IL to the fishermen
on the coast Of Maine and on the coast Of
Massachusetts; why not give IL to the
farmer3 Give him free bagging, in which
the farmer OF the West sacks his corn, and
with which the farmer IL the South wraps
-
in the South he binds his cotton bales and
with which in the West he bales his hay.
Give him some reduction on his hats, on
has wooden clothes and on his cotton goods.
Ia that way, and in that way only, can YOU
benefit the great mass Of the farmers Of the
South and West You cannot increase the
price or their product by protective tariff
0udes, but you can decrease 10 them the
cost OF production and OF living by re-
oucing the tariff on those articles used to
make their crops and on those articles of
necessity which all families must use.
Are not these views those OF an earn
est tariff reiormsr2 Are they not pre-
cisely those expressed by Mr.. MmLsP
Yet, because Mr. MLLs IS a particular
ly hard-hitter, the Republicans dub him
Stree trader" II he is free trader, GAR
FIELD and most Of his Republican con-
temporaries who took active part in tariff
debates were also free traders. In those
days the monopoly interests had not
fastened so tight grip on the Republi-
can party as they now hold, and Repub-
lican speakers were more honest in their
utterances. Although an uncoupro-
missing tsrif7 reformer, the Mgls bin is
whence OF how careful ana cautious
Er AlILs is in the practical work Of
tariff reform.
5tin, the selection Of Mr. CRISP over
