CALLS FOR AN EXTRA SESSION.
The Boston Commercial Bulletin" De-
manila Ihat a ChanRe he Made at Once

The Boston Commercial Bulletin" De-
mands That a Change BE Made at Once.
BosToN, Mass, November 12.-This
weeks issue Of the Boston Commercial Bul-
letin, in an editorial discussing the meaning
of the election results, says:
Massachusetts supported protection,
but the country has turned from Massa-
chusetts. A number Of influences have
been at work TO throw down the party In
power There is, however, no Disgusting
the plain fact that the main issue was the
tariff. 1t was clearly understood, and
majority Of the people OF the
United States have declared that
they do not wish a continuation
of the present tariff. II must frame sub
stitute, for there Is surplus OF but nine
millions. If certain goods are made free,
therefore, and the revenue TO that extent
cut of, either the revenue duties on conee,
tea and sugar must be restored or the du-
ties on other goods made unproductiye In
order TO secure large imports and
corresponding increase In the revenue.
Legislation that is positively unfsvorable
is better than a long period Of uncertainty
and suspense. We call upon the Presi.
dent-elect to summon Congress as proposed
in special session at the earliest possible
moment, that there may be some definite
basis TO business"
The Buuctin goes on to say that the chief
New England supporters Of free manufsc-
tured iron, free iute bugging, free binding
twine and free machinery have been de-
feated by their own constituents; that a
tariff hostile to New England Is 70 expec-
ted, but that the full measure or nosulity
is likely TO be restrained by the Northeast
ern wing Of the party in power, and that
the best safeguard Of the manufacturing
interests is not Mr.. Cleveland's courage,
not his party's political acumen, but public
opinion.

MRS. CLEVELAND'S ADMIRERS.
Thousands Jam Jaeger's Hall, Where She
Went to Attend the Fair.

Thousands jam JaeEers hau, NnefS Sne
Went to Attend the Fair.
New YORK, November 12.-The an
nouncement that Mrs. Grover Cleveland
would visit the fair at Jaeger's Hall to-
night drew larger crowd perhaps than
would have been there If nothing else
had been known than that the fair was
gotten up by the New York Normal
College alumn@ for the benefit OF a kin
dergarten school.
The crowd was there and so was Mrs.
Cleveland, smiling brightly in ackEowl-
edgment of the continued demonstra-
tion Of enthusiasm brought about by
her presence. ,
A few minutes after Mrs. Cleveland
came there was clappiug Of hands and a
little cheering. Miss Cslkins, chair
man OF the Executive Committee OF the
Fair, met Mrs. Cleveland and Mr.. and
Mrs. r. w. Glider, who accompanied
her, and escorted her to the farther side
of the hall.
The crowd surged toward Mrs. Cleve-
land so that when few minutes later
She wanted to move about to see the
Fair the assistance of two policemen,
with helmets still on, was necessary to
make a paSSageway.

Matters of Public Policy Under Discussion
-SenatoS Carlisle in Consultation for
Two Hours.
New YORK, November 12.-Every-
body who passed in front Of No. ~
West Fifty-irst street to-day knew that
il was the house Of the President-elect.
Not once during the day was the curb
Of the house unblocked by the wheels OF
carriage. A number OF ladies called
upon Mrs. Cleveland.
One of the distinguished men who
paid his compliments was Senator John
q. Carlisle, Of Kentucky. Mr.. Cleve-
land and Mr.. Carlisle were in consulta-
tion for two hours. 1t is understood
that they discussed In a general way
the possibilities OF reform TO be accom-
pllshed by the next Congress,
Mr.. Cleveland expressed a desire to
see Speaker Crisp, and it is expected
that he will be here early next week.
1t is proposed to begin the new admin
istration with thorough understanding
between the leaders, and whatever leg
islaton may be brought up will be care
fully sifted before it is proposed and
enacted.
Ex-Secretary Whitney dropped in
during the day and so did Don M. Dick
inson and S. p Sheerin. At luncheon
Mr.. Cleveland held the master spirits Of
the campaign at his table, except Chair
man Harrity, who had gone to Phila-
delphia.
Mr. Dickinson left the city in the
evening, but he will be back early next
week. Mr.. Sheerin returned to Indiana
tonight.
Chairman Edward Murphy, Jr., Of
the State Committee, who may be in
the L. S. Senate to take Frank His
cocks place, was at the Cleveland
house in the evening with Mr.. Whit
ney and two or three other gentlemen.
Mrs. Cleveland had gone out to spend
the evening with some Of her college
alumni, and the gentlemen had the
dining room TO themselves.
The serious business OF the discus
sion was the analysis Of the vote on
Tuesday. Mr.. Cleveland suggested that
until it could be satisfactorily shown
Just why there was such an unseen
Hop, it would be wise to go slow.
The general opinion is" said Mr..
Whitney, "that the people are opposed
to a Mckinley tariff"

AUTHORITIES ALARMED
Over the Condition of Affairs in Samoa.
American Interests Likely to Suffer.

New YORK, November 12.-The
authorities evidently fear that serious
trouble may soon arise ia Samoa, and
have decided to take steps to protect
the interests of the United States in
that country by the presence OF an
American war ship, says the HerdLdS
Washington correspondent.
1t will be we'll towards the middle OF
January, however, before the Ranger,
which has been ordered to Samoa,
reaches her destination. In the mean
time matters may have shaped them
selves so as to place American interests
in great danger.
A letter received here from resident
Of Apla confirms the news received by
the authorities at Washington about
the threatening aspect in Samoa. Both
political and business affairs are report
ed as being in bad way.
The natives have been dissatisfied
with the workings Of the Berlin treaty
for more than two years. says the wri-
ter, and a majority Of the white resi-
dents share their dissatisfaction.
A weekly paper published in English
was established in Apia in the fall Of
1888. 1t was well supported and was
fearless and outspoken in exposing the
dupicity Of certain members OF the
self-constituted Samoan government
composed Of foreigners.
Efforts to bribe the editor to shut of
criticism proving Intellectual, the paper
was purchased a few months ago by
Baron Won Pltsch, advisor to King
Malieto. Since It's purchase all news
happenings are colored by the newspa-
per to suit the views Of the government
officials.
The critical state Of affairs existing
in Samoa are not presented in their
true light, it is said, while the wrong
| impression about the peace and pros
perity of the country are conveyed.
The factions are represented py Malie-
toa .Laupeppa, the present King, and
the High Chief Mataafa.
When restored to his kingdom Lau-
peppa officially declared that his i'm
prisonment had rendered him men
tally and physically unfit to rule, and
that he desired Mataafa to succeed
him.
! lllS WISH III was llll pOooiOlO w No'i
out, because in signing the Berlin
treaty the German commissioners had
particularly insisted that under no cir
cumstances should Mataafa ever be
recognized as king of Samoa by the
three treaty powers.
Malietoa Laupeppa then changed his
mind obout abdicating in favor OF Ma
taafa, and decided to hold on to the job
as King, together with its pay and per-
ouisites, which is not at all bad thing
even in Samoa.
On several occasions the soldiers have
been on the point OF going to war with
the Kings forces, but have been wisely
restrained by Mataafa, who has been
termed by white residents the George
Washington OF Samoa"
The only war ship in Samoan waters
on October goth was the German cruiser
Buzzard, at that time in port at Apia.

DARK AS MIDNIGHT.
London Enveloped in a Dense Fog-Nu-
merous RObberles and Accidents on the
streets-Many Fatalities Expected.


merous Robberies and Accidents on the
streets-Many Fatalities Expected.
LONDON, November 12.-Dense fogs
have been prevalent in London for a
week past. At noon to-day the atmos-
phere became thicker than ever and
the blackness of midnight set in. Street
lights were in use everywhere In the
city, but their rays were unable to
penetrate the dense mass OF vapor that
hung over the city so heavily that II
appeared to make its weight perceptl-
BILE.
The fog penetrated the most tightly
closed houses and caused much discom-
fort. On the streets pedestrians STUN
bled along, often unwarily getting bad
falls by missing their footing in the
darkness. The usual roar Of traffic was
greatly diminished, for many draymen
and others refused to allow their horses
to be used, fearing accidents. The
traffic that was done was carried on un-
der great difficulty and it was only by
the exercise Of their greatest care that
accidents were not more numerous,
though some serious casualties were re-
ported. These consisted mostly in run
overs.
The lawless element took advantage
OF the occasion. and were everywhere
active. 1t was utterly impossible for
the police to recognize them, and the
dense fog rendered robbery an easy
task. In spite Of the precautions OF
shopkeepers, who have learned much
by experience in foggy weather, the
sneak thieves and others managed to
make many successful coups. Several
cases of highway robbery have also been
reported. In every case the thieves
escaped under cover OF the mantle OF
fog.
1t is feared that many fatalities will
occur at the docks, which are veritable
death traps in such weather as the pres
ent. Year after year numbers OF un-
fortunate employees of the dock compa-
MES, sailors and others, while cropping
their way through the fog, have met
death by falling into the water and
drowning. On the London and India
docks posts supporting chains have
been erected. and this will prevent loss
OF life there, but elsewhere no such
precautions have been taken, and 1t is
believed that the present thick weather
will add to the number OF those who
have fallen into the river and never
been heard from until their bodies were
picked up by boatmen. The fog will
also prove fatal to many persons suffer
| ing from pulmonary complaints.
