SECRETARY FOSTER undertook the
very difficult task of bolstering up an
illegal act-the spending Of money re-
ceivsd as head tax on immigrants for
alleged improvements on Ellis Island
with an opinion from the Attorney
General, clearly made to order, and as
might have been expected, he made a
failure OF the job, The alleged opinion
is but a lawyers plea it justified the
authorizing OF the expenditure by AS
sistant Secretary NETTLEToN or the
ground that the late Secretary WIN
DON had contemplated if he had not
actually done, the same thing; and
Congress is asked to accept this as a
yindicatior OF NETTLEroN, but it will
not do SO. If NETTLEToN has not re-
signed before the joint immigration
Committees conclade their investiga-
ton Of this matter, it is believed that
they will recommend his removal, and
also that OF Superintendent Owen.

SOME surprise was caused by the
passage of a bill through the lower
house of the New York Legislatu e
p~urporting to give women the right to
vote at all State elections. The idea
prevailed in some quarters hat the
vote was intended as a rebuke to the
member who outraged decency in a
speech against the bill. 1t turns out,
however, that the bill could have no
validity il passed, as the qualifications
for suffrage are laid down in the Con
stitution of New York, as in those OF
most OF the other States Why it
should have been deemed necessary to
discuss the measure g%rayely under the
circumstances is a problem rather diff

RIaine MAY be Nominated

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
New YORK, March "a World Washing
ton special says: There is a movement on
foot looking to the nomination of MIR.
Blaine at Minneapolis despite the letter h e
has written. Some Of the most prominent
Republicans in the country are enlisted in
it, and correspondence on the subject shows
that the desire for Mr.. Blsine's leadership
is still widespread in the party Last week
one of the most influential and experienced
Of Republican Senators called on MIR.
Blaine, and, alter remarking on his i'm
proved appearance, told him frankly that
the party ought to nominate HIM at Mime
EDolis and thereby draft him into its
service. Mr. Blaine made no reply. but
treated his visitor with cordiaIity and
pressed him to come again. He declared
during the conversation that his physical
condition was much improved.
There is an explanation given here of
the secretary's letter in defense of his
family in the recent divorce proceedings
which shows that even that may be put
to political use. The Blaine men say thar
the story had obtained wide circulation
that the real objection of the Blaine family
TO Miss Nevens. was that she was a
Catholic. This story, the Blaine men de-
clare, has been disproved by Mr.. Blaine's
statement Of the case, which shows
that his regret over the marriage
was founded solely upon the extreme
youth Of his son, and the separation grew
out Of the extravaganza Of the young couple
and their failure TO agree. The accusation
his friends say, was one to which Mr.
Blaine was particularly sensitive. So
rapidly is this Blaine feeling growing that
unless Mir. Blaine prohibits publicly or
privately conference is likely to be held
here soon and an orgRnizat on effected Look
ing TO the presentation Of his name to the
Minneapolis convention.

CoIdratsr National Bank Rohh0a

CoLDwATER, Mich, March 3.-Last night
the Coldwater National bank of this citv
was robbed. The safes were blown open
and so, 600 in cash taken, in addition to a
deposit of $4,000 of Philadelphia & Read
ing deferred bonds. One thousand dollars
reward is offered for the arrest of the rob-
bers.
The Job was the boldest and most COM
plete ever performed in this portion OF the
state, and evidently the work of experts.
They took every cent of cash they could
find. The robbery caused a great sensa-
tion here, and the bank was visited by hun
dreds of people this morning. No clue to
the robbers.
The robbers drilled the outer doors of the
vault and with punch broke the lock OF.
The middle door was secured with a pad
lock This was broken with asledge. The
inside vault contained one burglar-proof
combination lock safe and also steel safe
with a time lock. These were drilled and
charged with dynamite. The doors of both
safes were blown completely off, wreckins-
both safes and leaving nothing but the
shell Of each. Two ex plosions were heard
by people living short distance from the
bank about three O'Clock this morning,
About 500 in gold that was badly mutt
lated and bent out of shape, and also a
quantity of silverware, were left by the
robbers, together with some of their tools
Two suspicious looking men who were
seen in the vicinity of the bank last eve
ming cannot be found, and are probably the
men wanted.

that the meeting was called for a purpose
different from that spec fed. Without say
ing SO, be implied that rumor was current
the meeting was to be maze a demoustra-

fed himself to the front of the vast as
sembly shouted, Can you tell me why the
Pope communicated DR.. McGlynnn ~ The
hall was IN an uproar. The arch bishops
smiling countenance became grave The
laughed and the police rushed the old man
out of the hall. The resolutions were full
of loyalty and generation for the Pope and

speaker, "that we cannot interfere; that
we may be very sorry for the old gentle
man, but that he didn't have the votes, and
so he must abide by majority rule. But
say, then, how do you justify having killed
SO many citizens in the late war;"

you said to them, You shall not do it, and
break up the union You never got your

never would have procured it by your eff

power"
