NO EXTRA SESSION.
1t Would he Directly Opposed to All Pre-
ccdents.

ccdents.
Precedent seems to be against the likell-
hood Of an extra session OF the next Con-
gress, and according TO a Washington COR
respondent IL is not likely that the proposed
move will materialze. When President
Arthur became President In 1851 IL was
held that he must and would call Congress
together to take action upon certain issues
which wero impending and which were agi-
tating the country. principally the pro-
posed revision OF the tariff. Tho same had
been said when Gen. Garfield became Presi-
dent. There were international questions,
IL was held, which demanded immed-
late action Neither Garfield nor Arthur
had tho least idea OF calling an extra sos
sion. When Mr.. Cleveland became Presi-
don't I'm 1885 the Democratic and independ-
ent press throughout the country demand
ed and anticipa el an extra session for the
revision OF the tariff. Tho circumstances
were the same as the present, but Mr.
Cleveland, in private conversations, laugh
cd at the suggestion OF an extra session Of
Congress- Every reader will recall how
when General Harrison became President
It was demanded that no call Con-
gress together for tariff revision. Ev-

even consider the subject OF an extra ses-
sion. He said the country would fare very
we'll till Congress met in regular session.
1t Is now pointed out by prominent Demo-
Gratis in Washington that besides being
opposed to extra sessions of Congress in
times like these, President Cleveland will
have too much to do making changes in
offices TO warrant atteni ion to Congress.
1t Is learned that some Of the leading tar
iff reformers are favoring an average re-
duction OF alto 20 per cent from the Nc
kinley schedule. They expect bill to be
passed by the new Congress and made
operative two years afterward.

Death of a Duke.

A London cablegram says: George
Charles Spencer Churchill, ninth Duke Of
Marlborough was found dead in his room
In Benheim Palace. There was great ex-
element In club and society circles when
the fact was made known. Although the
Duke had not been In good health for some
time, his sudden death caused great sur
prise and shared public interest almost
equally vi h the American election He
retired as usual, and when servant
went to his apartment In the morn
ing to assist In his toilet he made
no res onse The servant approached
the bed and at once saw that the Duke was
dead. A physician was promptly sum-
moned and an examination showed that
the Duke had been dead for several hours.
The Duke was the ni1th to wear his his
toric title and is chiefly distinguished as
having outdone long line OF dissipated
predecessors in extravaganza and profiiga-
cy. To Americans the announcement of his
death will be of interest on account OF his
marriage few years ago to Mrs. Hamers-
ley. OF New York. The newly made widow.
before she became a Duchess. was the wife
OF Louis c. Hamerslcy, who died, leaving
her fortune OF many millions After the
