death. Mrs. Breckenridge, wife of
the inspector general of the army,
an intimate friend Of Mrs.
Harrison, was also an early visitor. Mrs.
Wilmerdi,g. Secretary Tracy's daugh-
ter, whose own beloved dead not long
since lay within the same walls, and
who in that deep sorrow was soothed
and sustained by the kindly ministra-
tions of Mrs. Harrison, also came to
tender sympathy. Mrs. Findlay, OF
Baltimore, the wife of the presidents
cousin, Hon. v. L. Findlay, was ad-
mitted to the private part of tile house.
At IL o'clock the Rev. DIR. Hamlim, the
presidents pastor, came to the White
House in the exercise of his pastoral
duties to the a&icted family. Punctuous
to dot in all matters pertaining to So
cial and official functions, many mem
bers Of the diplomatic corps hastened
early to the White House and left their
cards.
With the great food of notes and
cards came Il comforting message from
ex-Secretsry Blaine and Mrs. Blaine. A
natural delicacy on the part of the presi-
dent prevents the publication of this
note, but its wording and sentiments
ARE said to be significant of earnest sym
pathy such us would naturally be felt
by those who have themselves passed
through the deep waters of affection.
Conioled by Victoria.
Queen Victoria, always among the
first to extend sympathy to the be-
reaved sent from her Highland
castle the following cable messages:
General Harrison, President of the
United States, Washington--I have
heard with deepest regret of your sad
of your sad loss and sincerely sympa-
thize with you in your grief.

The casket selected for Mrs. Harrison's
interment is of cedar, covered with
black cloth with oxydized silver bars
along the side and across the ends. On
top will be silver plate bearing the
inscriptions: "Ca1oline Scott Harrison,
Wife OF Benjamin Harrison" and the
date of Mrs. Harrison's death.

We quote also from Kuhlow's Ger
man Trade Review and Exporter of
August "a last, Writing Of the treaty
which Germany had just concluded
with Colombia and Uruguay, it says:
"Our commercial policy during the last
week won a victory which would
scarcely have been credited short
while back" And after asserting that
it is not Russia or Servia, but Colombia
and Uruguay, it continues:
1t is not that our commerce in this
direction is of such great Importance,
or that our export industry has got
much to hope for as would be the case
were moderations in the Russian tariff.
No! The Importance of the treaties
with Colombia and Uruguay is that by
means of them the intentions of the
Mckinley bill have been frustrated.
The whole of America was to have
bound itself together against European
industries. Now that spell has been
broken we may hope to see this Pan
Americanism done away with. This
fact is of more Importance to our indus
try than the conclusion of any number
of treaties which we have or shall con-
clude with different states all over the
world.
In the Mckinley reciprocity clauses
dealing with sugar, molasses, coffee and
hides are the only thing of Importance
which are admitted duty free. This
freedom of import is, however, only in
sured to those states which make con-
cessions in the tariff to the North Amer
ican Union. Under this pressure Ger
many, Austria and France were OBJ iged
to enter into most favored treaty with
the United States, and at the same
time abOllsh the prOhlbltory duties on
American bacon and pork. Under the
same pressure Brazil, Nicaragua and
Salvador entered into treaties, which
turned them-more than economically
into satrapies of a great state. The
Mckinley bill had selected those arti-
cles for reciprocity with the greatest
cuteness. Sugar certainly still
one of the most importantn articles in
our trade with the United States, how
ever. coffee and hides really constitute
the chief articles of trade. The United
States were therefore able to bring the
greatest pressure to bear on other
to make any sacrifice.
To quote again from the Argus
Leader: Assertion is not argument;
but facts and figures are incontroverti-
ble." Well, we should say SO.

The White House Closed to All But
Intimate Friends of the Presl.
dents Family.
The Funeral of Mrs. Harrison will BE
Held at the White House Thurs.
day Morning.
She Will Be Buried at indianapolis ON
Friday-Many Messages Of
Coincidence.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-The flag at
the White House is not raised as usual.
The fountains in the grounds are
stopped and the blinds Of the windows
of the mansion are drawn down. Two
policemen guard the entrance to the
grounds to prevent invasion by the Gu
rious, but there is no necessity for their
services. The department employees in
the adjoining great wal, state and navy
building on one side and in the treasury
on the other pass to their duties in
silence, and all the passers-by respect
the grief of the presidential household
and have not sought to intrude upon
the privacy of the executive mansion
and grounds. A constant but almost
,noiseless stream Of carriages has passed
over the asphalt pavement driving in at
the eastern entrance, and after. leaving
cards of coincidence at the main door of
the White House, drove out by the car
riage exit to the west. A chilly spell Of
weather had succeeded the Indian sum-
mer of the last few days and the first
frost of autumn has nipped the beauti-
full foliage of the White House gardens.
Over all the government Offices and
over the hotels and many of the business
buildings the flags were at half mast.
From the hour when the White House
was closed following the death of Mrs
Harrison at 40 q. m. quiet had reigned
until the opening of the mansion. Presi-
dent Harrison retired and obtained
some rest. When he reappeared in the
morning he bore himself with the calm
ness and fortitude that comes from de-
pendence upon a higher power and q
resignation to the mandates of His will.
He was, of course, suffering greatly
from the blow that had fallen, no less
severe because long delayed and long
expected, but his morning greeting was
been expected.
The family breakfasted together, and
the little ones learned of the great loss
they had sustained in the hours of
sleep. They have sadly missed grand
ma" in the months that have passed, for
above all other joys Mrs. Harrison ap-
preciated the companionship and care as
we'll of the children of the household.
The love Of both the president and her.
self for them was one Of the beautiful
and prominent features of the home life
in the White House.
Z The ushers were early required to re-
ceive the cards of callers who came with
messages Of coincidence, or on business
connected with the sad event. Among
the first to arrive was Rev. DR.. Hamlin,
the presidents pastor; Attorney General
Miller, Secretary Tracy, Postmaster
General Wanamaker, and Assistant
Secretary Of War Grant, who remained
some time in consultation with Private
Secretary Halford and Mr.. Mckee. Mr..
r. A. Parke, district passenger agent of
the transportation of the funeral party
to Indianapolis, was also among the
early visitors.

LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 26.-William HI.
Irvine, of Salt Lake City, who has been
on trial here for week for shooting and
killing Charles 3. Montgomery in the
dining room of the Hotel Lincoln, May
26 last, was acquitted during the after
noon. The trial created widespread in
terest in the city and state. The de-
tense was that Montgomery had seduced
Irvine's wife and that Irvine was so
wrought up over his ruined home that
he was not responsible for his act.

The recent attempts at fusion in this
state were a confession of weakness on
the part of both parties to the attempt,
as we'll as a complete reputation of
whatever principles are contained in
the platforms of the Democratic and
Independent organizations. And what
was at the bottom of these attempts in
which the gubernatorial candidates of
both parties recently took so active a
hand in this town? Simply desire on
the part of some of the Democrats to
help Grover Cleveland into the White
House that they might get a whack at
the Federal offices; and on the partof the
same class Of Independents that they
mighthave taste of the state patronage.
But the question naturally arises, if
Cleveland is so sure of New York and
Indiana, what does he need of any
Northwestern electoral vote? And if the
Populists are so certain of carrying
this state what do they want to dicker
with anybody for? The only conclusion
to draw from these fusion attempts is
that the Republicans are sure winners
in straightout fight, and from this
on the ticket will draw largely from
that element in both the other parties
which has no use for secret conniving
to help few schemers into soft snaps.

He became a hopeless drunkard
years ago. When this "queenly"
woman began to dread her fate,
she said to him. "If you do not
stop drinking whisky 1 will begin
it." He did not stop and she de-
liberately began drinking whisky
and eating opium. She is now q

quaintance of theirs said to me
yesterday, "He lies drunk in

lies drunk in the other room.
Their children have never been

over town, and nobody
takes any care of them but an old

The cousin of that "queenly"
woman is my relative. He is the
President of a bank, and very
rich. He votes for Democracy.
He does not like my religion, and
wrote me a letter not long ago,
that was as short as pie crust. He
sent me $500 for my paper and
asked me to discontinue it.
A Presbyterian banker stopped
my paper the other day. Don't
like my religion, and the way l
rip into old John Calvin and
P Presbyterianism. He votes with
The Democrats. He has son at

It will be because the devil will
say he is not worth a damn.
