SCANDAL IN ENGLAND.
suicide of Chorus Girl shocks the
 Polite World.

LONDON, Oct. r.--Considerable m terest is being taken in the echoes oi the inquest on Saturday last on the body of Lydia Miller, or Manton. to use her stage name, . chorus girl of the Gaiety thea ter, who recently committed suicide by drinking half pint of carbolic acid. At the inquest on Saturday 1t will be remembered, Lord Charles Montague,
 brother of the Duke of Manchester, testified to having been on very inti. mate terms with the deceased and to having been late in keeping an ap- continent to lunch with her on the day of her death. This failure to keep an appointment promptly is said to have greatly annoyed the chorus girl since the inquest mys- terious allusions have been made in the newspapers to a certain high per sonage, understood to be Prince Albert Victor, eldest son of the Primes of Wales, who also IS said to have had intimate relations with the dead girl

Let any farmer take out his pencil and divide the increase of wealth by the total population in each of these groups, and he will find that, while every man, woman, and child in the eight manufact- uring States has S169 more money now than in 1880, the people in the great farming States average only S+4 increase in wealth in ten years. The manfactur- ing States have been growing rich al most four times faster than the farming States
 These cold facts are proved by Porter's census. What then becomes of his non- sense about the farmers excessive bene- fits derived from protection?
 Porter the census talSer is doing a good service to the country in explod ng the absurd claims of Porter the protec- tionSt spouter.

CENSUS-TAKER PORTER
REFUTEs PORTER THE PRoTEC-
 ZIONIST SPOUTER.
Manufacturing States Growing Rich Four Times Faster than Farming States Where Do the Farmers Excessive Bene- fits from Protection Come In?
The Farmer Not In It.

Protection helps the farmer more than the manufacturer, say the high tariff cranks. Robert F. Porter, our protec- tionist Superintendent of the Census, for example, tells the farmer that "the direct benefits he receives from the pro- tective tariff are far in excess of the benefits received by any other class"
 If this astounding claim were true, Porter's census ought to prove it. A good pro ection census, made and man ipulated in tho house of its friends, ought certainly to illustrate the beauties of protection so clearly and in such large letters that the W yfaring farmer, though fool, need not err in reading them Our farmers have been voting for high protection for thirty years to build up home market to consume their produce and thus benefit them selves
 To Porter's figures show that the ben eft has come? If the farmers get the great advantages out of protection that he claims, the census tables showing the growth of wealth ought to prove it. If we take a group of States in which man ufacturing is the chief business, and other States which have an equal popu- lation and in which farming is the lead. ing occupation, and make a comparison between the two groups to get at the rate at which the people in each are growing rich. we ought certainly to have the means to decide whether protection is helping the farmer more than the manufacturer.
 One of these groups shall consist of the manufacturing States of Connecti- GUS, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hamp- shire New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont; the other of the great farming States of Illinois, lndi- ana, Iowa. Wisconsin, and Ohio.
 The population of the first group is

A MYSTERIOUS DISPATCH.

Senators Ignorant About u Reciprocity
Treaty With New Foundland.
WASHINGTON, Feb. i6.-The State De-
partment is in the dark as to the mean
ing of the St. Johns, New Foundland,
dispatch about a reciprocity treaty having
been agreed upon between the United
States and New Foundland.
Assistant Secretary Adee says the
State Department has jurisdiction to
make reciprocity treaties in such cases
only when the conditions prescribed in
the Mckinley bill exist, and those condi-
tions, as far as he is informed, do not
exist as to New Foundland. ~ simply
know" he added, nothing about the
matter"
If Secretary Blaine has concluded any
reciprocity treaty with New Foundland
he has not informed the Senate of the
fact. The matter has never been brought
to the attention of the Senate in execu-
tive session, and several Senators to
whom the dispatch from St. Johns was
shown say that they know nothing about
such an agreement.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l6.-The- Senate
will continue during the week on the
programme arranged by the Republican
caucus, although there is a probability
that the Copyright bill, the pending
measure, will be laid aside and the
Diplomatic and Consular Appropriation
bill taken up.
Senator Hale has given notice that he
will ask the Senate to take up his bill II
the Copyright bill is not speedily dis
posed OF, and it is likely tdat he will
make a motion accordingly this after
noon, and with the chances in favor of it
being adopted. The Diplomatic bill can
be disposed of without any delay, once
it is before the Senate; and the Sundry
Civil bill, now in the hands of the APP.
preparations Committee, will be report.
ed during the week and may be passed in
a day or two thereafter.
The order of business also includes
the Indian Depredations Claim bill and
the Nicaragua Canal bill, and it is prob
able that some discussion will take
place on these measures before the end
of the week, with a chance that one of
them may be finally acted on.
The time of the House during the
week will be spent in the consideration
of the Indian, Agriculture and Postoffice
Appropriations bill. AS soon as these
measures have been disposed of, the Sub
sidy Shipping bill will be taken up and
disposed of, although it is not at all
likely that it will be reached this week.

THE COPYRIGHT BILL,
Explanation OF tho Action of the Senate
In Rejecting Its Own Am end m"nts.

Explanation Of tho Action of the Senate
In Rejecting lts Own Am end m"nts.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-The action of
the Senate regarding the Copyright bill
was rather singular. After adopting
three amendments to the bill in Commit
tee of the Whole, the Senate rejected all
three in lump, thus leaving the bill
clean and unamended, just as before the
long debate on it began.
The explanation for this singular per-
Torrance is found in the fact that one
set of Senators desired one amendment,
another set another amendment, and a
third set still another, but no one of the
amendments was acceptable to the en-
tire opposition; hence, when 1t came to q
test vote, all three were knocked out.
1t does not follow that the bill is in
any better shape for passage than be-
fore. Senators Platt and Hawley and
other friends of the bill in the Senate
say that they do not derive any particu-
lar encouragement from the defeat of
the amendments. They say that the OPP
position can and will probably go ahead
and offer further amendments, which
will make the situation as unfavorable
as before. 1t is understood that the
Democrats will make an attempt this
week to kill the bill outright.

PEORIA, ILL.,, Feb 16.-Startling revela-
tions in the conspiracy of George J. Glib
son to blow up the Shufeldt distillery
have just come to light. 1t is now known
that Gibson bought so pounds of dyna-
mite from a. H. Barnwalt some time age
and the druggists from whom the arch
plotter obtained the ingredients of the
deadly fluid found in his satohel in Chi
cago have been discovered.
Gibson bought the different constitu-
ents separately and mixed them himself.
The stuff was made of six parts of BIZ
sulphatS of carbon and "a parts of phos-
phorou1 He purchased these chemicals
three weeks ago.
There Is no doubt that Gibson has fed
as he has not been seen since Thursday
and the members of the Whiskey Trust
no longer deny that he has gone. They
say that he has got out of the way be-
cause he was afraid he would have to
face additional charges and that his bail
would be largely increased. Detectives

the conspiracy and it is probable they
will also endeavor to find out which way
Mr.. Gibson has gone and who were back
