SON OF AN EX-GOVERNOR OF CONNECTICUT
DIsAPPEARS-HIs BOOKS BEING EXAMINED.
Greenport L. l., July 1s.-The report that
Martin B. Waller, the secretary and treasurer
OF a Long Island brick company, and son of eX-
Governor Waller of Connecticut, had gone away
and that from $4,000 to 100000 of the com
panys money is missing has been in measure
verified by those in position 10 know the affairs
of the corporation. Young Waller disappeared
from his Office and this village about three weeks
ago, and nothing has been heard or seen of him
since Previous to that time his attendance at
the Office had been very irregular, he having been
there only sixteen days since January /.
The first intmati0n that the company had that
there was anything suspicious in his affairs was
two weeks ago. when Waller gave notice to the
members of the company that he would in his
cfce the following day, and that he would meet
them there. He failed to appear at that time,
however, and has not been seen since.
His father. Ex-Governor Waller, is a large
stockholder in the company, and is grief-stricken
over the matter. No cause has yet been aSsigred
for his peculiar conduct but rumor has 1T that
there is a woman in the case.
The president and manager Of the company is
ID. C.. Sage, who has an office and resides in this
place His daughter Miss Virginia, has received
many attentions from young Waller, which At is
understood was distasteful to her father The
young lady, however, Is said to be in an indie
pendent position, being possessed of $4,000 in
her own right, and in all discussions took sides
with Waller. Miss Sage, when questioned
about Waller's mysterious absence, laughed
and said she had no idea where he
was, and she could give no reason for
his remaining away. She appears to be indig-
naut about the stories in circulation in reference
to him. President Sage, when asked about the
rumors, refused to make any statements in regard
to the matter. He acknowledged, however that
Walters disappearance and continued absence was
q most mysterious matter. An expert has been
engaged 10 examine the accounts of the company,
as it is feared that Waller has collected all the
moneys possible that were due the concern.
The Long Island Brick Company is one of the
largest manufacturing concerns Of that material
I'm the State of New-York The capital invested is
over 81 100000. The absence of young Waller,
it is asserted viii not affect the standing of the
company All the stockholders are wealthy and
can easily make up the amount of any possible
deficiency Tie officials have taken means 10

THE PROHIBITION REMOVED,
DETAILS OF THE FRENCH GOVERNMENTS
ACTION ON AMERICAN PORK.
NO SERIOUS OPPOSITION TO THE MEASURE II
THE HoUsE-THE DECREE TO TAKE


THE HoUSE-THE DECREE TO TAKE
EFFECT IMMEDIATELY.
Paris, July 1s.-The decree resembling the pro
Mbtion of American pork, which takes immediate
effect, simply enacts that the duty on American
salt pork hams and bacon, which paid 1-2
francs before the prohibition will now be 20
francs per 100 klos In accordance with tho
new tariff all the prohibitions will be abolished.
The immediate application Of the decree is due
to the persistent pressure brought to hear by
United States Minister Reid, especially during
the Inst few weeks, when W. Ribot, Minister Of
Foreign Affairs, who was hcsitating over the
matter of resembling the prohibitions, finally
agreed to do so, hut wanted to postpone it until
the whole Tariff bill was passed and promulgated.
Mr. u,eid urged that if the Government post
poned the resembling Of the prohibition until the
end Of the autumn it ought TO pass special
law without delay VI. Ribot consulted his col
leagues ahd, finding no opposition TO the matter,
introduced the project in the Chamber Of Depu-
ties. Under arrangement with the Govern
ment, NJ. Felix Faure, at the end Of the sitting
on Thursday, moved urgency for the proposal.
Only one Deputy, VI. lie COur, offered any hostile
criticism of the measure, and his remarks con-
sisted of a brief reference to the danger OF trcht
nosis
NJ Gourde, replying TO the speaker, treated ths
question of trchinosis old legend, unworthy
of regard as applied TO American pork.
NJ Meline, the chairman of the Tariff
Committee, explained that the decree would SIM
ply be promulgated two months sooner than tbs
accepted tariff on salt pork, and thus permit
satisfaction to be given 10 the United States, IN
the cessation Of the prohibition.
NJ Pallain, the Director of Customs. added that
every measure Of precaution and surveillance would
ha akan IN, went n
tering the country The House thereupon Voted
the decree-365 to 90.

theatre-goers. This season he appears

LISTING QUALIFIED VOTERS.

The new election law provides that it
shall be the duty of each assessor in the
State 20 list as far as be can ascertain by
due diligence, the name of every qualified
voter !n each magisterial district, and en-
ter them iu each district ia separate lists
arranged In alphabetical order.
Now on important question is, when is
the assessor to make these lists, The law
does not say.-WdynC NslCs.
The REGISTER fails 10 see why the
assessor should neglect to do the
work at the time he makes
his rounds 20 assess personal
property, and make the necessary
corrections and changes in listing tax
payers. Evidently the law intended
that he do it at that time and no other,
as no time is specified, and at no other
time is it so opportune TO list the quail
fed voters Of county. Certainly there
ought to be no confusion about the
matter.

TEE CONFERENCE SPLITS UPON TIE QUESTION
on TEE DISCHARGE OF NEW MN.
Proceedings Of the Meeting Of Committees Of th'
Wholesalers and WarehOustmen, at spsldsl
& Co.'s 0fic', Last Night

The difficulty between the wholesale
merchants and warehousemen is still un
settled.
Yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock
meeting Of the merchants was held, al
which it was decided to meet the com
mittee of warehousemen last night.
The assault upon one of NJ. Reilly's
drivers was also considered, and it was
decided to offer reward of 500 for in
formation leading to the arrest and
conviction of the guilty party.
Last nights conference met at 7:3O
O'Clock in the Office of Jos. Speidel q
Co., on South street, and lasted until
nearly midnight. Nearly every whole
sale grocery in the city was represented.
The merchants refused to confer with
committee of the warehO1Semen, and
asked to meet the Trades Assembly Ar
bitratlon Committee. They finally con-
sented to allow one representative Oh.
Warehousemen's Union TO be present,
but take no part in the discussion. The
y
by VIM. Frohme, Roman Dooler, Rich
ard Robertson, and Jerry Meade. Mike
RohanTepresented the warehousemen.
Section 2, of the scale submitted by
the Warehousemen, was first taken up,
and the Arbitration Committee agreed
to waive the clause, and adopt the fol-
lowing, which was presented by the
merchants:
1.-THE jobbers reserve the right to employ
and discharge men for good and sufficient
cause. and express no objection to their
Joining the Warehousemen's Union. They
pledge themselves not to discharge men
simply for joining or belonging to the I'M
ion. and none shall, because OF their mem
bership, suffer detriment in their employ
ment."
Several other minor points were con-
coded by the Trades Assembly Commit
tee. The next important subject con-
sidered was the retention or discharge
of the non-uniOn men, who have taken
the places of the strikers, and it was
upon this point that the conference
split. The merchants agreed to NIL the
vacant positions in their respective
houses from the striking warehouse
men, DuG pOSlJlFclJ lOluoCu w NISNN o.
any of the new men to make place for
the strikers. The Arbitration Commit
tee refused to accede to any agreement
by which only portion OF the men
would again find employment. The
Trades Assembly Committee final
" agreed to refer this matter
tn an unbiased and independent arbi-
tration committee, to be composed OF
one man chosen by the merchants, an
other by the warehousemen, and the
two thus appointed to select a third.
To this proposition the merchants re-
fused to consent. After further dis
cussion the conference adjourned, with
the understanding that the warehouse
men will give their decision some time
to-day.
The warehousemen will hold meet
ing this morning at nine o'clock, at
Trades Assembly Hall, at which 1T will
be decided whether or not to settle up
on the basis proposed by The merchants.
Members Of the union who were spoken
to last night expressed their determine
ton TO refuse to settle upon that basis.

~ TnMN ii HrsTLING.

The opening Yesterday 10 the public
Of the Wheeling Bridge Co.'S magnificent
new steel bridge from Main street to
Penn street, Island, makes another era
Of improvement and progress in this
town. Every additional means Of rapid
transit between the city and the neigh
boring towns across the river means just
that many more people to do,business in
our midst. Greater facilities and
convenienceS, closer and quicker con-
nections for all suburban residents and
near by cities, will, in a short time, &C.
ment us all into a community Of
over 100000 people Of which Wheel
ing will be the Industrial, fnan-
cial and pOpulous center. Surely the
old town has a move on her at last.
Her terminal railway system, the
projected railway 10 COnnellsville, the
new electrical railway, bridges across
the river, the magnificent stone bridge
AtIONS AAA0 NANNAs lAAc
streets and the new electric light
plant have ali united in giving the city
such an impetus that she is bound to
hum. Even II she wanted to slow up
she couldn't Now let us have
a manual training school that will give
our energetic and ambitious boys and
girls lift in the world, and we car then
say truly, that there is no town in the
Ohio Valley that offers more solid h,-
dueements to all classes Of thrifty peo-
pie to locate in it than Wheeling.
The REGISTER feels deservedly proud
that it is so, because it has been heart
and soul in touch with all that has been
done in the line Of progress, sometimes
single-handed and alone, but always
successful.

THE TEMPLATE FARCE.

If it were a solemn fact instead OF a
roaring farce that tin-plate is or can be
made in this country by virtue OF the
Mckinley bill having raised the price
in the United States twenty-five per
cent, wherein would be the benefit to
! the country or it's industries? Should
every other industry and every kitchen
in the United States be heavily taxed to
support dollhouse industry that does
not belong here?
What an unjust proposition!
The tin-plite industry-if it can be
called such-twas as far advanced, as
far as permanency goes, in this country
before the Mckinley bill was passed as
it ever will be-. Says the Toledo Bee;
''Right here in Toledo, and in, or rath-
err on, our magnificent new Bee build
ing, is the best practical illustration OF
the fudge Of the Republican talk about
American made tin. Our roof is tin,
American tin, made in Philadelphia, and
made before the Mckinley law took ef.
feet. 1t is as good roofing tin as can be
made, but roofing tin is not tin plate
by long shot, as any dealer will testi-
fy.
"Now, this roofing tin was made with
out the help of the Mckinley law, made
before the embargo was laid on Welsh
tin ore, made of American iron, Amerl-
can lead and Welsh tin. II American
genius could direct the manufacture OF
this terne plate, without tariff tax TO
help it, why put on the tax to be added
to the schedule price, to be paid by the
consumer, and to be pocketed by the
manufacturers who lobbied the steal
through CongressP If terne plate
could be made without a tariff
what need of tariff tax at all, except
to build up another lot of class-men at
the expense of the common country"
The Bee continues:
The tin on the Bee building proves that
they could make it as well before July as
since. and proves that whatever benefit
there now is in the manufacture, is entirely
for the benefit of the manufacturers, and
at the the expense of the consumer.
There is not a sheet of American tin
plate in this country to-day that can be
used for canning purposes. The whole
thing is a delusion and a snare and no per-
son knows this better than Major McKin-
lev. But it is true that the Mckinley tariff
has advanced the price of all kinds OF tin,
including terne-plate, or roofing tin, and
the owners ofiron and lead are reaping the
profits.
And Republican speakers and Republi-
can organs help along the steal by praising
the tin schedule of the Mckinley monstros-
ity.

LOST MINDS COME BACK.
Victims of the Great Flood Recover Their

Victims of the Great Flood Recover Their
senses-Three In erestIng Cases.
With all that has transpired since the
fatal Johnstown flood in May, 1889, a
blank to their minds until recently,
three accomplished young women have
been confined in the Pennsylvania Hos
pital for the Insane. Until few days ago
all was vacancy to their vision. Now
they are well-nigh recovered from the
clutches of the terrible disease that
placed them there, and one OF them will
leave the institution within the next
few weeks. Her faculties have become
as they were of former days, aud she is
now a perfectly sane woman.
When Johnstown was submerged be-
meath the waters OF the flood, these
three were not among the thousands of
unfortunates swept TO sudden death;
but, il they escaped, worse fate was
reserved for them. The fearful shock OF
the calamity vas two great. Acute men
tai disorder soon succeeded sorrow and
despair, and their friends had them
placed in the hospital. That was over
two years ago. Unremitting attention
and careful treatment have been given
them unstiRtedly and not in vain. DR..
John B. Chaplin, the physician of the
hospital, who is chiefly responsible for |
their recovery, said yesterday that there
was no doubt that all three would in
short time be absolutely we'll.
1t is an interesting fact that the trio
who are about to pass from darkness to
light are of the highest culture. They
are all well educated and thoroughly re-
fined, and one of the three plays the
piano delightfully."-.
