Printers Honor MIR. chlids.

PHmADELPHIA, Pa, May 15.-The mem
bers of the Typographical union of Phila-
delphia celebrated the Esd birthday of George
W. Childs with banquet. An innovation
was introduced by having the wives and
sWeethearts of the printers present at the
dinner.
Mr.. Chllds received through the day cable
grams from England. France and Germany,
and kilograms from all parts of the union.
His private Office was covered with floral
tributes from the printers and other friends.
Among the letters read was the following
from Mr.. Blame:
You are among the very, very few, among
the precious class of men with whom success
has developed hberahty, charity and justice.
Unhapply, great success in the world is too
often accompanied by growing sel6shness,
a growing disregard of the wants and the
sufferings of othsrs. Your deserved eulogy,
my dear MIR. Childs, is that your life has
been passed even more in making others
happy than in promoting your own fortunes
by the most honorable means. Greater
eulogy than this hath no man. The lnfiu-
ence which hardens the heart of many has
constantly widened your own beneyOlence
and exalted your own life.

BUSINESS RavIew.

NEW YORK. May 1s.-R. G. Dun Co.'s
weekly review of trade says:
In every respect the outlook is more favor
able, excepting the large exports of gold and
the advance of Bank of England rates to 8
per cent, obviously for the purpose of drain
ing more gold from this country. 1t is a
most favorable symptom that the continued
export of gold caused no panic in this mar
ket, ana it is significant fact that the ex-
ports in April were about double last years
in value, as to cotton, and showed an increase
in oil and provisions, but decrease in cattle
and breadstuffs. Yet, in breadstuffs, the de-
crease was wholly in corn, and the surplus
of wheat available for export was, May 1,
about $4,000, 900 bushels. Exports of wheat
from Atlantic ports have been much smaller
than year ago, until last week, when an in
crease OF 10 per cent. appears
In corn the decrease Is heavy, of course.
The speculative markets have acted pecu-
harly during the past week, wheat advanc-
ing cents per oushel on reports not sub
stantiated of injury to crops in the north
west. while corn has declined 3 cents and
oats 216 cents on moderate sales.
Pork, lard and hogs are also lower and a
heavy decline appears in butter.
Cotton, coffee and oil are unchanged, and
this is the more remarkable as to cotton, be-
cause much the larger crop ever produced is
going to market more rapidly than ever be-
fore at this season.
The final prospect just now turns largely
upon the export of gold.
Merchandise exports are for the time COM
paratively small, S12,740,O 600 in two weeks
from New York, against S15. 639. 900 last year,
while imports cOntinne remarkably large.
The business failures occurring throughout
the country during the last week number
237, as compared with 242 last week, and 212
for the corresponding week last year.

The 1eth of NAV.


CIScINNATI, o., May 16.-The nationa
uniOn conference in this city next week to
discuss the advisability of organizing a new
political party. promises to draw a large
crowd to this city.
The officers of the national alliance organ
iZations tried as hard as they could to dis
courage the conference, but the affair has
now got beyond their control and many of
them have decided to be present and do what
they can IN quiet way to prevent the FORM
alton of a third party at this time.
1t is now claimed by the promoters of the
movement, who are nearly all members of
the old greenback party, that there will be
1900 delegates present, but LOO will be
nearer the actual number. Besides the coa-
ference proper there are to be two or three
side conventions.
The day before the beginning of the con-
ference the national industrial citizens
alliance will meet. and at tine same time the
National Reform Press association. All the
men who have become prominent in
alliance politics in the west and northwest
will be here, and all of them expect to make
speeches.
Considerable interest attaches to the con-
ference among the politicians in this state
because there is a strong probability that the
Ohio delegates Will meet after the adjourn
ment of the conference and nominate a full
state ticket, which will greatly complicate
the political situation.
The alliance is strong in this state Just
AOMs aAa IL - liz OlluAOu OF Well posted
men that the third ticket would poll not less
than $1,000 votes this year, a large majority
of which would at the present outlook come
from the republicans. II the workingmen
in the cities should 20 with the third party,
as they declare they will do, it will not be
such soft snap for the democrats, and the
tight between Mckinley and Campbell would
be much more interesting.
The Kentucky delegates to the conference
will also hold a state convention across the
river from Cincinnati at the time of the ma
tional conference.
If John Young Brown, the Louisville law
yer, Is nominated for governor by the demo
Gratis there will be a big revolt among the
farmers IN that state, as the alliance has 1OO,-
QUO MEMBERS and they assert that they will
not support lawyer. Brown is largely in
the lead for the nomination, but this fact
may lead 10 his defeat before the convention,
which meets at Louisville this week.
Efom correspondence received here it is
shown that there will be strong feeling
against making new party at this confer
ence, and an effort Will be made TO postpone
decisive action until next February, when {
conference of all the great labor and farmer
bodies will be held IN this city.

Syrup"

Here is an incident from the South
Mississippi, written in April, 1890,
just after the Grippe had visited that
country. Z" I am a farmer, one of
those who have to rise early and
work late. At the beginning oflast
Winter I was on a trip to the City
of Vicksburg, Miss, where got well
drenched in a shower of rain. I
went home and was soon after seized
with a dry, hacking cough. This
grew worse every day, until had
to seek relief. I consulted DR.. Dixon
who has since died, and he told me
to geta bottle of Boschee's German
Syrup. Meantime my cough grew
worse and worse and then the Grippe
came along and caught that also
very severely. My condition then
compelled me to do something. I
got two bottlesof German Syrup. I
began using them, and before taking
much of the second bottle, was
entirely clear of the Cough that had
hung to me so long, the Grippe, and
all its bad effects. I felt tip-top and
have felt that way ever since. Z"

LONDON, May 1s.-At tho drawingroom
which was held at Buckingham palace two

They were Mrs. o. Helm, the wife of Captain
Han. the military attache of the American

Of New York. The dress worn by Mrs Helm
was copied from q picture by Sir Joshua

OF rose colored brocade embroidered with
silver, and the full court train, also OF rose
velvet, fell from the shoulders and was edged
with silver. The boquet carried was of pink
roses, which harmOnized delightfully."- with

which covered the front and sides of the
gown The corsage, also of satin, WIS

Cute Cuban clgarmakers.

CHICAGO, May 16.-John w. LAnck, a spe-
cial agent of the United States treasury, re-
Gently stationed in New Orleans, is in Chi
cage under special orders to investigate a
phase of the Mckinley tax upon Cuban
cigars that the government hadn't antici-
pated. which Is seriously imparing the reVe-
nue. expected from the tobacco trade.
Linck has discovered that the Cubans are
away ahead of Uucle Sam without commit
ting any fraud and nothing can stop them.
Under the Mckinley law cigars are taxed
$3.50 per pound. and % cents ad valorem
duty. The old duty was $3.50 and % cents
respectively. The new law sent the price of
Cuban cigars up according to the increase
but some dealers began to sell Cuban cigars
at the old prices, and on orders from the
treasury department Mr.. Linck, who was
then stationed at New Orleans began an in
vestigatiOn which resulted in the discovery
that Cuban cigarmakers have been making
their cigars light.
They wrapped the cigars much looser and
slightly smaller, with the result of saving
from two to three pounds in every 1000
cigars Tins makes a saving of from 50 to
So per 1000 cigars, and the practical result
Is that the increased duty does not bear any
harder than the old tariff, and the only diff
ference to the smoker Is that he gets a slightly
smaller cigar loosely wrapped.
Mr.. Lnck's inquiries in this city devel-
oped the fact that all the Cuban sellers are
cutting two or three pounds out of every
1000 cigars. Mr.. Llnck wall remain IN Chi
cage several days and then Continue his in
vestlgatlOns IN eastern cities.

CITY OF MExIoo, May IA dispatch re-
ceived from Acapulco says: The Gillian
cruiser Esmeralda entered this port and sew
eral of her officers were ashore and used the
wires and made various inquiries regarding

they had been informed that the United

suit of the Itata-
1t is believed that she has steamed north 20

Mohcan ready for sea as fast as possible.
Her officers make 10 secret of the fact that
she is under orders TO proceed to southern
waters as fast as steam and sails can carry
her. The Mohican is said to be going to
Central America to relieve the Ranger. Still
no one on board of her believes this to be
the case, as orders have been issued for sup
plies of provisions far in excess of her real
needs. and every pound of coal that can be
taken on board viii be slowed away in her
bunkers-
1t is generally believed at Mare island that
the United States government has decided
to concentrate as large fleet as possible in
the Gillian waters, where it will remain IN
til the war is over. This belief is strength
ened by the fact that the Mohican will carry
large quantity of shells which can only be
used by the Charleston or the San Francisco.
It viii take the Mohican at least fifty days to
reach Callao.

In the ReUue d'Hygielle. NJ. Bourri-
er, inspector of meat for the city of
Paris, describes his experience with
meat impregnated with tobacco smoke.
Some thin slices of beef were exposed
for considerable time to the fumes of
tobacco, and afterward offered to dog
which had been deprived Of food for
twelve hours. The dog, after smelling
the meat, refused to eat it. Some of
the meat was then cut into small pieces
and concealed within bread This the
dog ate with avidity, but in twenty
minutes commenced TO display the
most distressing symptoms and soon
died in great agony. All sorts of
meat, both raw and cooked, some
grilled, roasted and broiled, were ex-
posed to tobacco smoke and then given
to animals, in all cases producing
symptoms of acute poisoning Even
the process of boiling could not extract
from the meat the nicotine poison.

Remedies Recommended.

NEW ORLEANS, La, May 16.-The citizens
committee appointed October, 1880. to Inves-
tigate the Malta, has made a big report,
which concludes with suggestions of rene
dies, as follows:
First-Regulation of immigration.
Second-RefOrm in the criminal laws and
administration of criminal justice.
Ihird-A law recognizing the existence of
a bar association and endowing it with full
power to try and disbar any attorney whose
evil practices make him unworthy of being
an officer of the court. The only radical
remedy which suggests itself is the entire
prohibition of immigration from Sicily and
lower Italy.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 15.-The bal

reason of the extraordinary shipment of

exports of our productions and OF gold.
