HOW IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.

Croton OIL Could Have Been Put on the
Knives and Forks.
DR.. F. P. Langftt, of Third avenue, said
last night he had attended six or seven of
the diarrhea patients at Homestead He
said the disease acted very much as though
croton oil had been administered. The
doctor said that the oil could have been con-
veyed to the non-union men by putting it
on their knives and forks A drop of the
stuff each day on the cloth used in wipping
the cutlery would be enough to cause death
eventually.

W. l. spalding, special agent of the
census, was at the Duquesne yesterday. He
stopped over here to wait for orders Mr..
Spalding thinks permanent Census
Bureau should be established. The Gov

collect statistics and data all the time.
Then when the census is to be taken these
men can be sent over the country to estab-
lish centers for carrying on the work.

DIED OF ALCOHOLISM.

A Supposed Case of Poisoning That
Couldn't Stand Investigation.
Coroner Mcdowell yesterday investigated

He is one of the men whom the Carnegie

An autopsy was held and death was
found to be due to alcoholism. The disease
was far advanced and there was not the
least semblance of poison.

No Wind to Dispel the Fog.
The weather chart for the day shows that
the barometric wave runs direct through
Pittsburg to the northeast and to the south
east over Virginia and that section Of the
Atlantic coast. To add to the gloom little
air was moving. and the mass of fog and
smoke hung low and drearily over the two
cities
But it takes more than q dark day to dis
turb Pittsburgers, though they prefer the
sunshine. The heavy fog was discussed e1-
tensively, and as Q man brushed against his
acquaintances on the street they laughed
together, and in the same breath spoke
about the gloomy weather Electric light
and gas bills would be pretty steep if many
such days occurred in the month, but fortu-
nately they are rare in Pittsburg, smoky as
the city has become in the last two years.
The street lights in front of the stores we're
burning during the day, and reminded many
people of 1884, when the smoky period in
Pittsburg was at its height.

THE GILLIAN SITUATION.

The position in which we stand In rela-
tlon to Chill calls for the gravest and most
careful consideration. Our uitimatum
has been sent to the Chilian government; ;
the general government has taken de-
cided stand, and we must now bear the
consequences. 1t is 4 matter to be de-
plored that we should stand in the posi-
tion toward Chilli that we do. Instead OF
preparing to take up arms against our
sister republic, we should be on the most
amiable and friendly terms.
The recent events leading up to the
position we have now taken are fresh in
mind and call for no comment. II is a
condition that confronts us now and not
a theory We may talk all We please
about international law but We must look
the cold fact straight in the face, that our
relations with Chilli are held barely by a
thread and that tho next news that comes
to us may be that diplomatic relations
have been broken off and extreme meas
ures will at once be taken TO force Chill to
bend the knee and make reparation as We
have demanded.
War is serious thing, and not to be
begun lightly. It Is the fore-runner OF
untold SORROWS, the death warrant OF
many a heroic soul. We have nothing to
gain by war with the little South Amer
loan Republic and it seams sanseless,
idiotic undertaking on the part of these
United States TO spend millions of dollars
when there Is likely TO he no return.
There are other ways to make Chill repent
the attitude she has taken than by enter
ing upon costly, bloody and profitloss
war. OF course energetic means should
be taken TO protect our citizens abroad
and to prevent outrages being committed
against our navy, and ou= hag should be
ven hat res pcot due to 1t and TO q great
and pc eriul nation; but all this can bC
done without reoorting to force.
Our present unfortunate position hn'
been brought about by the vacillating
and procrastinating ways OF the depart
ment OF State II Is somewhat singular
that when Mr. Blaine was Secretary o
state under Garfield he stirred up illf feel
ing with Chill and came close to embroil
ing Us in var then, by his so-callec
brilliant foreign policy. Ton years late
this same man, filling the same Office, put
his brilliant policy 10 work and agair
brings us 10 the very verge OF war II not
before long, war itself, with this same
south American state. II war does come
we can aud viii put it where it Justly and
properly belongs, on the shoulders, per-
haps OF the most astute politician Of the
Republican party, but, in reality, the
most reckless and impolitic Secretary this
country has ever seen.
And IL war does come, no filter words
can be used in regard TO IL than at ii
more than crime; it is a blunder."

duces this mountain of evil? Can
a Christian government do such
an unchristian act as licensing
the rum shop that corrupts the
people and menaces even its own
existence? In that great day of
accounts, will a gospel minister
that has voted for the rum shop
hear the welcome sound of ''come
We blessed of my father" or that
other sound of depart from me We
workers of iniquity." Workers OF
iniquity, is just what everyone is
that votes for the rum shop. Of
all the agents of Satan none render
such effective service as sustainers
of this rum curse disprove this
who can.
Does not every individual, all
communities, and all govern
ments sin and commit crimes
daily that license and uphold rum
shops? The government that is
sues the license and participatesin
the profits, and all individuals that
vote for licenses, are equally guilty
before God and man with the
keeper and patron of the den, for
all sin and crime committed by its
votaries while crazed with rum.
They are all particeps criminis in
the moral turpitude of the deed.
Those that set the traps or dig the
pits are as guilty as those that
keep them, or those that are ruined
by them.
Let us all weigh ourselves before
Eternal Justice comes with her
scales and we be found wanting.
She will weigh governments that
corrupt her people for pelf, COM
munities that sustain these plague
spots in their midst, and gospel
ministers who vote for rum dens,
as well as those that keep them
and their patrons who do the mis-
chief when crazed with rum. She
is perfectly blind, and will see no
difference between the kid-gloved
minister that voted for the license
and the rum bloat that drank at
the den. All will be weighed for
the same offense.
The gold that has been piled up
in the traffic, will serve only as a
witness against the holders. The
deeds of corruption that originate
in these dens will bear witness
against all, and the suffering
groans of the doomed victims will
ascend as prayers to God fol
vengeance on those who lend
themselves willing servants fol-
Satan to keep alive this abomin
able traffic. JNo. M. HoRNER.

Mr.. EDITOR: We hear about
Christians, Christian communities,
Christian governments, etc. Allow
me to ask few questions. Can
one be a Christian who wilfully sins
every day or who encourages prac-
tees that make others sin by
laying temptations before them
which they cannot resist, or who
helps to sustain system of rum
license which causes more evil and
suffering in communities than all
other sources combined? Will a
Christian willingly assist Satan to
multiply sin in the world? Yet all
know that licensing the rum shop
does that very thing.

Mr.. EDITOR: When writer OF
vigorous English gets con the war
path" he does not always resist
successfully his temptation to use
his vigorous English at the ex-
pense of common justice. In read
ing this morning an article in one
of your contemporaries concerning
a recently solemnized marriage
ceremony, it seems to me that no
good, but possibly harm would re-
suit from the writer's setting up
his theological opinion of its i'm
propriety, knowing, as some OF the
persons concerned may unfortun-
atelv not know, that the marriage
in question was and is perfectly
legal by Hawaiian law.
Of what mortal use was it, to
make the attack on those person
ally concerned? Certainly we have
no Church theory which invali-
dates or affects our statutory en-
actments on the subject. l ven
