YALE-HARVARD DEBATE.

Argument--Honors Divided.

An Enthusiastic Gathering and a Spirited
Argument-Honors Divided.
BosToN, Jan. Is. - Sanders Theater,
Cambridge, was filled last night with a
large and interested audience gathered to
listen to the joint debate between repre-
sentative students of Yale and Harvard.
The proposition under discussion was
''That young man casting his ballot in
1892, should vote for the nominee of the
Democratic party"
The debate was opened by R. R. Upton
of Yale, in the affirmative who declared
that the Democratic party was the party
of fair trade and progressive ideas.
G. F. Costigan of Harvard was the first
speaker in the negative and confined his
remarks wholly to review of the two
parties positions on the silver question.
With the record of the Democratic party
upon this question in view, the new voter
should vote against it's nominee.
Other speakers followed, but no vote
was taken at the close of the debate, and
the speakers on either side presented
such strong arguments as to leave a
newly fedged voter in a tangle of I'M
certainty and donbt.

NEW YORK LEGISLATURE.
Enumeration Bill Passed--SenatOrs Ad-
judged Guilty of Contempt.


ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 15.-Upon the
question of substitution of a new enum-
Grafton bill Senator Coggeshall asked tC
be excused from voting, stating that he
had not read the bill and therefore
could not vote intelligently. The Lieu
tenant Governor put the question to the
Senate as to whether Mr.. Coggeshall
should be excused, and by party vote
permission was refused.
Senators Erwin, O'Connor and SaNton
each followed Senator Coggeshall's eN-
ample and were treated in like manner
by the Senate. A substitute was adopt
ed, and the question required on the
final passage of the bill. The Senators
again refused to vote.
After the roll had been finished and the
bill announced as passed, Senator Cantor
offered his resolution: "Resolved that
the members of the Senate refusing to
vote be adjudged guilty of contempt and
that the whole matter be referred to the
Judiciary"
Senator Coggleshall voted No." ex-
planning himself in favor of an enumera-
ton bill but not being willing to vote
for one he had not read. Senators Err
win, SaXton, and O'Connor positively re-
fused to vote. Senator Erwin announced
that he would rather 60 to Jail than stul

LONDON, Jan. IS. - The Prince and

trated by grief to suggest as yet any de-
tails for the funeral of their son, Prince
Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence and
Avondale. whose,,attack of pneumonia ter

The Princess of Wales is said to bear
her first great bereavement with greater
fortitude than the Prince, whose quiet
and haggard appearance, when he ap-
peared at a window in the afternoon, and
looked upon the familiar grounds in
which he had seen his family grow up.
The Princess May is said to be almost

worst sign is her restlessness. She wan

the house, as if she expected to meet her
royal lover somewhere alive, and be
greeted by him in the old way. Her
grief at the deathbed was so overwhelm-

Prince and Princess of Wales from their

The DepOsitOrs VIII Not Lose Anything
Hill Had Been Trusted Cashier for go
Years and systematically Appropriated
the Funds---His Two Brothers Were
Defaulters, and One of Them Com
mItted Suicide.
JAMEsBURG, N. j., Jan. 15.-The cloud
of suspicion and distrust which has how
cred over the acts of T. Wilton Hill in
his late capacity as cashier Of the James
burg National Bank has at last been
broken, revealing him defaulter to the
amount of $4,000 or more. Hill had
been the Jamesburg Banks cashier for
20 years. His death occurred three
weeks ago, and before he was buried
rumors were circulated impugning his
integrity.
A Government bank examiner was
called in to examine the banks books.
Yesterday this examination was con-
cluded, and the examiners report show
ed that Hill was an embezzer to the ex-
tent of $25, 900 to $4,000, that he ap-
propriated all the assets of the bank he
could lay his hands on, and even sys-
matically robbed the depositors.
F. L. Buckelow, the president of the
bank, and his family own three-quarters
of the $75, 900 stock, and the greater part
of the balance is divided up between
Directors w. H. Courier, j. G. MCGEE,
George Van Arsdalen and Mr.. Townsend.
In any event the depositors will be safe,
as the directors will be compelled to
make good the loss.
1t is reported that when the Govern
ment examiner was leaving town he told
Il depositor that Hill was both scoundrel
and thief
Hills salary as cashier of the bank
was only 81, 500 year, yet his expenses
were reported to be at least $50 a day.
Hills favorite hobby was keeping a
fancy poultry farm on which he spent
much time and money, but which, it is
said, was never paying investment.
The stock on the farm was sold at auc-
ton on Wednesday.
The history of the Hill family has
been a remarkable one. John T. Hill,
whose death occurred about year ago.
was president of the Ninth National
Bank of New York. Only after his death
did it become known that he had en-
bezzled 100000 of that institution s
money.
Charles Hill, another brother of T..
Wilton, was for many years the trusted
cashier of the First National Bank here
| About four years ago he committed sui
eide, almost simultaneously with Nah
| Ion Hunyon, then president of the bank.
| These two had combined in wildcat
! schemes in Wall street, and took their

| falcation became known.
Hill leaves wife and two daughters
to bear the stigma of dishonored name.

1t is hintcd very broadly that mar
riage between Prince George and Prin-
cess Victoria May of Teck will be ar
ranged. The weekly paper, Modern
Society, " however, asserts that mar
riage has already been arranged between
Prince George and daughter of Prince
and Princess Christian.
Princess Christian is the third daugh-
ter of the Queen, and was married to
Prince Christian of Schleswig- Holstein-
Sonderburg- Augustenburg on July >,
1866. There are four children of this
IN arriage, two sons and two daughters.
The eldest daughter, Princess Victoria
Louise, was born May 3, 1870, and the
younger, Princess Francesca Josepha,
was born Aug. IA, 1872.

About the first call had after start
ing in business for myself was from a
school. The furnace had broken down
suddenly in mid-winter. The school
was closed while the repairs were be-

furnace fairly, DELIGHTED the children;
their only regret was that it wasn't
more broken down. SO it would take
longcr,to fix ihr' OF course, it was per-
fectly natural that the children should
look at it just as they did. Neverthe-
less it was pleasing incident; and be-
yond the mere amusement that it at
forded me at the moment, it yielded
this more substantial benefit: It awak-
ened me to the fact that the way in
which things appear often depends very
much on how you look at them.
