A Pointer.

There is a practical as well as a
politica recognition of the value
OF Tariff Reform OH the part OF the
astute people of New England in
the eff ort of.its capitalists to oh
tain control OF the coal properties
in Nova Scotia. They are so well
satisfied that our customs taxation
OF raw materials will be abandoned
that they are substantially betting
taeir money on the eventuality.
With cheap coal and iron ore as
sured to them, the abandoned fure
naces in the east might relight
their fires.
The abolition of coal tariffs on.
the part of the United States and
of Canada would not be the ones
sided transaction which tt e oppos
nents of such legislation affect to
believe. The less of market tor
soft coal in New England, if that
should result,' would be made good
by the gairr of new markets in

MRS. CHAS. DEW EY DEAD

MRS. CHAS. DEWEY DEAD.
Saturday afternoon at their home
in this city, at 1880 o'clock, Mrs.
Mittie Steele Dewey, the estlmlble
wife Of our esteemed townsman Mr..
Chas. Dewey, in the 40th year of
her age, surrounded bv her sorrow
ing loved and loving ones, soothed
by their ministries of unsreakably
tender affection and sustained and
comfortea by the sweet unctions
that flow in upon the Christian soul
through the avenues of .Christ's re
de ming loYe, "fell on s'eep'' in'.I, sus.
Her il ness, which as announced d
in these columns some days ago, had
been alarming from the first, but
hope buoyed her family and friends,
while her attending physicians we're
;assiduous and constant in their at
itcntions, but the fell serge mt Of the
glass and sythe, who is strict III his
arrest, was relentless to the end.
Mrs. Dewey was born in O. ui.er
1852, and her gir]hooI Ii ne va, ia
Fay ettevil!e, where she Was cordially
beloved and where wide circle Of
relatives survive her.-She was con.
"istent and exemplary member of st,
Pan NJ E. Church in this city,
w here ,-he bias resided since her mar
riage.
In all relationships, social,
domestic and spiritual, the
life of Mrs. Dewey was
characterized as at once, kind, d,smi>
able and sincerely Christian. Her
religion, we are p zrsuAded,was life,
rot vague p;etistic sent'rent,
and we can confidently il pc it
has-received a blessed reward ,e.yeR
that hearty greeting trim
the Divine Master Himse f-"W eli
done, good and fla thfnl
servant: thou hasc been fi'thfu
over a few things, | will set thee
over many things: enter thou into
the Joy of the Lord"
She was ever in her place at
church: she WAS ever ready for
church work, because 1t WAS His
work, whom she loved and served all
her daye. She was also unfailing In
her attendance upon that highest
act Of divine worship, the Lords
Supper. And now surely bath He
granted unto her the blessed i'm
mortality which He has promised to
worthy participants of that Divine
Marriage Feast. We may confidently
hope that her worship this blesssd
Sabbath morning is amongst the
ten thousand times ten thousand re-
deemed ores who have washed their
robes in the B.co1 of the Lamb and
stand around the Throne of God land
lock upon the beauty of Ills face,
which is the JOY of the elect.
Her departure was calm and
peaceful, unattended by any mental
anxiety OF fear of the Valley. Her
last woods were these of comfort to
9her precious husband and they will
singer 10 bless and comfort him
through all his days, while. be cares

.vive eleven that were born to their

A Jersey Vice Chancellor VIII In
vcstigate IL.
NEW York. April 20-An order
issued by Vice Chancellor Bird Of
Trenton, N. j., requiring Father Tracy
Of Swedesboro to show cause why he
should not be enjoined from interfering
with Father Leahy In carrying out his
function as priest of the parish, was re-
turnable Tuesday. Father Tracy was
on hand and filed the answer. He
claimed tina. the decision of Mgr. Satolli
was not conclusive, and that he had
appealed to Rome.
Evidence Necessary.
When the vice chancellor heard this
he said it would be necessary to have
evidence upon the right and authority
Of Mgr. Satoli to finally decide between
the two points. and order an adjourn
ment for two weeks to enable Father
Leahy to secure such evidence. Peter
Backes, counsel for Father Leahy, said
he would proceed at once TO Washing
ton to secure such sviaence and, Il nee
essary, would make an effort to secure
the sworn testimony of the papal dele
gate.
When the testimony is secured the
vice chancellor will then have to deci ie
the question which has caused SO much
contention in the Catholic church of
America. namely. whether Mgr. Satolli
has absolute powerover Catholic church
affairs in this country.

oLNEY's OPINION.

Worlds Fair Directors Bound by
Terms OF appropriations.
WASHINGTON, April 20.--Attorney
General Olney, to several questions pro-
pounded to him by Secretary Carlisle as
to appropriations available for the
worlds fair commissions, summarizes
hi sopinion as follows:
Iregard the act OF March 5, 1893, as
an appropriation of specific amount
of money, devoted to certain purposes,
and to be expended by the worlds fair
commission under the conditions stated
in the act. as have construed in this
opinion. The expenses of the bureau
of awards are to be paid out of this APP
preparation, and not out of the So, $780,
900 provided by the act of Aug 5, 1892,
of which last named sum an
amount equal to this appropri-
alton is, in my opinion. de-
fault of sscarity by the worlds
Columbian exposition to be retained in
the treasury, and by subsequent legisla-
ton or proper proceedings, to be COW
cred back into the treasury for the ben
eft of the government and to recon-
pense the government to the extent of
the actual expenses on account OF bureau
of awards. 1t is held simply as re-
serve fund for that purpose, and any
unexpended balance in the present
state of legislation would doubtless ap-
ply to the Worlds Columbian exposi-
tion. The full text of the opinion
makes about 5000 words.
