RECIPROCITY on RETALIATION.

HESiPHOClTI OR RETALIATION
The position taken by Presiden
Harrison on the Canadian question
and his recommendation that retalia
tory measures be adopted with tina,
country in return for their disregard
of the Washington treaty, as shown
In their discrimination against Amer
lean merchants, lends color to the re.
port that it was a disagreement on
this matter that led to the resignation
OF Secretary Blaine. 1t was said at
the time of Mr.. Blaine's retirement
that his last act vas to sign an agree
ment with the Canadians covering
this matter, but from the recent de-
%claration of President Harrison It
would seem that the difficulty has not
been settled. Canadian John is out
of temper because the United States
markets along the Cana tian border
are not thrown open to the Canadian
farmers, thus destroying the home
market for the New York, New Eng
land and other northern farmers. In
his pet he has violated the treaty
with this country by which our mer.
chants and shippers were accorded
the same rights through the Welland
canal as the Canadian shippers and
merchants were Canada has been
charging eighteen cents a ton on ell
our merchandise passing through
that canal for United States ports, in
excess of what would be charged for
consignments to Canadian ports. 1t
this discrimination that the Presi.!
dent resents, as q disregard of our
treaty stipulations, and the meeting
which with retalIatory measures was
not agreeable to Secretary Blaine's
ideas. However this may be 1t is GER

dug in the ground and tho silver dropped
into IL. where it would be safe from Toboers

of 1890 treated that silver as a commodity.
IL degraded It and held 1t in subsection to

Every American statesman ought to di-

how the two metals could be tied together

silver put down TO 80 cents an ounce, nor

IN favor of an international arrangement.
Mr.. Dolph sent to the Clerks desk and
had read an extract from a speech of Mr.
Stewart TO the effect that the purchase by
the government Of 4.5OO. 600 ounces OF silver
per month would use all the silver pro-
duced In the United States. and would put
up the price of silver To par.
Mr. Stewart admitted that his prophecy
had failed. but pleaded that the conditions
had changed. and that it had been proved
conclusively that nothing would do but
free coinage. No action was taken on the
bill, and after q short executive session the
Senate, out of respect to the memory OF the
late Representative Gamble. of South Da-
kota, adjourned till tomorrow.

Two Households Where Hunger and Hardship
Are Causing Suffering.

Citizens in the neighborhood Of No. II
Lord street yesterday made the startling
discovery that the faulty living at that
number is in destitute circumstances and
actually suffering for provisions and fuel.
The house is occupied by the family of q
man named Adams. a molder. who met with
an accident while at work in Decatur. Ill.
from molten metal. and is LAID up at the
hospital. His household consists of his
wife and child. four months of age. her two
sisters and mother and father. The father
Is not able to earn living, and three of
the family are sick with the grip.
When their condition became known,
Mrs. James Brown. who lives across the
street, started o subscription to provide
food, and Captain Campbell and other
neighbors. including Mr.. Pope. the grocer,
Mr.. Winans and others. secured sufficient
coal for the present. The case was report
ed to Township Trustee Gold, who prom
ised to investigate to-day.
One of the needy cases of restitution ap-
pealing this cold day for relief Is that of a
family named SanDurn. living at No. IL
Wood street, small street running from
North TO Michigan street. being the first
west of Mississippi. A worthy widow with
six children lives there, and has been hav-
ing q hard struggle all winter. Her family
consisted of seven children until yester-
day, when one of them died. Three more
of them are very sick. 1t is said that at
no time during the winter has the widow
had sufficient food and clothing.

The board allowed the final estimates
and paid the city's portion of several con-
tracts yesterday. They were probably held
thus late that the controller might tide
over Jan. without borrowing more money.
The city's portion of the College-avenue

PREPARE TO SILVER.
Bitter Weather and Low Gas Pressure Will
Cause Plenty of Suffering.

The first real old-fashioned zero winter
weather of the season is promised by the
Weather Bureau for to-day. dispatch
was received from Washington yesterday,
reading as follows: TnU
= WASHINGTON, Jan. 6, 1892.
Observer. Indianapolis:
Hoist cold-wave signal Temperature will
fall about 200 by Thursday night.
HARRINGTON.
Since at 2 o'clock yesterday the temper
ature was 20 degrees above zero. and at
shutdown much lower. the indications are
that the mercury will touch zero. The full
meaning of this will be best appreciated
on the South Side. where the gas pressure
aas been low for several days, and in many
houses stoves fitted to burn coal have
been erected. A depression of the mercury
TO the zero point means that many will suf-
fer for lack of warmth, owing to feeble gas
pressure in all parts of the city. It will be
found necessary to shut off spare rooms
and otherwise contract the space to be
heated.

She Falls Victim to the Prevailing Scourge
at the Advanced Age of Eighty-Two Years.

Harriet E. Bless died at her residence,
346 North New Jersey street, at IL o'clock
yesterday. in her eighty second year. The
immediate cause of her death was conges-
ton of the lungs. brought on by an attack
of the prevailing epidemic, which, in ner
feeble health and advanced years. made
her case hopeless from the first attack.
Mrs. Bless was born In Washington. KY.
in 1910. At the age Of sixteen was married
TO Eleazor Bless. and resided in Mason
county. Kentucky. until the breaking out
of the war. Mr.. Bless being an uncom-
promising Union man. was perse-
cuted and his life was threatened
by his neighbors, who sympathized
with the South. On the advice and per-
suasion of his sons he removed to Indian
apolis in 1862. where he resided until his
death, which occurred in 1882. Mrs. Bless
in her life and work emb bodied in the fullest
measure the attributes of devoted wife
and mother. kind and helpful nelghbor
and an earnest and consecrated Christian.
She leaves n family of five children, two
sons and three daughters-James +. and ID.
Webster Bless and Mrs. Robert Drake. OF
