Congressman Breokenridge's Mis-


We do not think there is an intelli-
gent American citizen who has read Hon.
w. G. P. Breckenridge's speech in Con
gress on the goth who was not greatly
surprised and panied at the views he
advanced. He had offered q resolution
calling upon the: President for all the
correspondence between this Govern
ment and Chill Immediately after the
ing documents, relating to that subject,
had been read ..ins.his hearing. In his
speech he more than intimated that the
full purDort of the answer made by Chill
to the demands of this Government had
not been communicated to Congress, land
that the suppression had been made SO
that the message could be delivered. for
other purposes than to state the true
resolution acted upon at once, without
reference to the Committee on Foreign
Affairs, but finally yielded that point
after Mr. Blount, of Georgia, and Her
bert, of Alabama, had protested against
the course of the member from Ken
lucky.
Read between the lines, it was in NJ.
Breckenridge's mind that the President
wanted to make political capital out Of
the CHILEAN affair, and that to do so he
had kept back the full text of Minister
Egans dispatch conveying the action OF
the Gillian Government. The speech
and the insinuations it contained were
unworthy of the Distinguished kentuck
ian.
There is no man in Congress who has
stood higher in public estimation for
frankness, fairness, eloquenee and cour-
age, than Mr.. Breckenridge. He was The
last man we would have suspected of the
unwarranted insinuation that the Presi
dent was trifiing with the grave interests
involved in the CHILEAN controversy, and
of suppressing essential papers, relating
to it, in order to justify the message he
transmitted. Had the intimated sup
preston really been the fact, the Presi'
dent would have made himself liable te
! Impeachment, and ought to have been I'M
peached. 1t would have been prostitut
ing the powers and privileges OF his
position to the most unworthy ends and
manifesting a degree of base motive
that would have justly entitled him tc
the scorn and contempt of the nation
The prompt reply Of some of the ablest
! democratic members of the House and
the decisive action in referring the reso-
luton to the Committee on Foreign
| Affairs, demonstrated that Mr. Brecken
ridge had mistaken public sentiment
and that there were very few if any who
shared in his suspicious.
We doubt whether there has ever been
President of the United States who
has more zealonsly fguardeI American
interests and American honor, than the
present occupant Of the Executive
Chair Political friend and foe accord
this to President Harrison. There has
/ been nothing of commission or omission
that wuuld justify the remarks OF the
kentuckian and why Mr.. Breckenridge
so delicate himself in his sense Of honor
and so regardfnl Of the motives anC
reputation of others, should have made
this mistake, we have no means OF
knowing. That it was & grave mistake
the action Of the House declared and Tx
speeches of Messrs. Blount, Herbert
McCreary and others fully emphasized.

ADJUSTMENTS

AT the Metropolitan Theater this even
ing Charles Frohman's Madison-square
Theater Company appears in the new
comedy, Jane" 1t will be preceded by
the New York Herold's clever curtain
raiser, "Chums." The play Jane" has
been great success and had remarka-
bic run in San Francisco. 1t is the pro-
voker of hearty, wholesome laughter, we
are told, from beginning to end. Miss
Johnstone Bennett is in the lead, little
woman whose comedy ability has put her
well up among the comedians OF the day.
The San Francisco Cdit says of her: ''She
is too cute for anything" "a pocket edi-
ton of femininity,' ''an object to ad-
mire," and of the play, ''If amusement
be the chief end of modern theatricals, as
some contend, the present engagement
meets the proposition squarely." The
troupe is the same throughout as played
the comedy in New York and San Fran
cisco, and the prices the same that OBJ
tanned in the latter city.

CALIFORNIA WHEAT CROP IN 1891.
The San Francisco Produce Exchange has
issued its regular. .semi-annual statement of
grain and beans held in this State. According
to this statement, the stocks held this year on
June lst show quite an increase over the
stocks held on June /, 1891. That of wheat
lilour reduced to whea0 shows an increase of
23,5S2 tons. While the stock of wheat shows
the above increase, yet the exports for the
year ending May 81, 1892, show a falling off
IN comparison with the corresponding
months ending with like date in 1891. The
PdcVc RHrdt Press, in estimating last years
crop, says that taking the stocks held and the
aggregate exports during the season, and the
wheat crop of 1S9O-9l and that OF 1S91-92
were about the same in quantity, but the
grade in the latter season averaged slightly
better. Accepting the Produce Exchanges
statement of livestock of wheat in this State
on June !, 1892, as approximately correct,
then the crop of 1891 was 1,1S4, ,229 tons.
This estimate is formed on the following
