eign husband of rank and title, and now
some Of the most beautiful and popular
women in London society are those
whose nativity was beneath the floating
folds of the star-spangled banner. Some
eighteen Or twenty years ago brilliant
American girl met at dinner party
in Paris the younger son of the then
Duke of Marlborough. The lady was
Miss jerome. the young man was Lord
Randolph Churchill. Fascinated by
the beauty and wit of the beautiful
American, he addressed to her a remark
in French and received such an apt
reply that he continued the conversa-
ton with Increasing interest. When
the ladies withdrew he remarked to his
host: THAT is the cleverest and wit
tiest woman l have ever met. Imean
to marry her." And marry her he did,
and lucky thing it was for the English
lord, for it is a significant fact that up
to the year of his marriage Lord Ran
dolph Churchill had never filled any
prominent position in the arena of
politics. Within one year after that
event he entered the house as member
for Woodstock. and has ever since been
well to the fore in all party questions.

of her success she has encouraged him
by her faith and aided him by her prac-
tlcal advice and assistance. Although
for many years an invalid. her delicate
health has not in any way been bar to
her help. Mrs. Mckinley was never a
robust wamen, but her actual invalid
ism dates from the birth and
death in infancy of her sec
ond child. Her first, born on
Christmas day, 1871, lived only three
years. Deferred by her unfortunate i'll
health from actively serving in chari-
table undertakings and committees,
Mrs. Mckinley performs her many
charities unostentatlously and away
''from the sight of men," Unable to
receive the poor who come to her or to
investigate personally their worth, she
intrusts to some member of her family
her large almsgivlng. Her fingers are
rarely ever idle; and whatever of her
bandiwork is not sent to adorn the
homes of friend or relative will find its
way to charitable Dazaars and fairs, or
into the hospitals for dlstrib button among
invalids less fortunate than herself.
Both Mrs. Mckinley and her husband
are members of the First Methodist
church in Canton. When in Washing
ton they attend-when Mrs. Mckinley
is able to be taken there-the Foundry

NEW Pudding SCALE
Agreed Upon by the Amalgamated
and Employers.

PITTsBURG, Nov. 19.-The settlement
Youngstown, o., yesterday on the basis
of S475 per ton will affect all mills in
the country governed by the scale of
that organization. Under the new rate
the puddiers claim that under the most
favorable conditions they will make
S3.73 per day III winter, and S2.41 In
summer, when two helpers are neces-
sary. The cut was made TO meet the
price paid in non-union mills, and they
now fear the wages of the non-uniOn-
lists will be reduced still further. in
which case the union manufacturers
may want still lower rate. The ANAL
gamated committee will confer with
the sheet manufacturers tomorrow to
consider the sheet scale. The manu-
facturers want 10 per cent reduction,
and among some of the WOrkmen there
is disposition not to concede it, unless
the manufacturers show good reasons
a disagreement the manufacturers will
start their plants at once with non
union men.
YOUNGSTOWN, O., Nov. 10. Fires
were lighted in several of the rolling
mills tonight for the first time since the
closing week in June, for the purpose
of resuming work with the opening of
the morning turn on Monday. The re-
joicing over the prospect of employment
during the winter is not unmiXed with
bitterness. The members of the Anal
gamated association regret the necessity
that compelled them to accept the re-
ductiOn, but they are gratified with the
fact that they can return to work at

His Opposition to 1t, Unless
Chairman Wilson Should Come
to His Aid-Free List to In
clude Wool, Lumber, Iron Ore,
Coal. Salt, Rice and Bagging.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The ways
and means committee hopes to COM
pIete the new tariff bill and give it out
to the public about the close of the
present week. A fear is expressed by
some of the Democratic members that
the differences which have recently
arisen among their number over the
policy OF an income tax may prolong
the final completion of the measure
until a later date, but every effort will
be made to get the bill before the public
at the earliest possible moment. At the
general conference of Democratic mem
bers tomorrow the discussion will be re-
sumed as to the policy of adopting an
income tax, and, as all the essential
features of the bill practically depend
on the adoption or rejection of this
policy, the other details of the measure
will probably be held in allegiance until
the committee has finally come to a con-
cluSlon on an income tax. Representa-
tive Cochran, of New York, is strongly
opposed to the adoption of the in
come tax provision, but it appears
now that he will stand alone
among the Democratic members. un-
less Chairman Wilson should come to
his aid. The position of Mr.. Wilson on
the subject is still regarded by the in
come-taX men as somewhat indefinite,
since he has been frequently reported
as being in the anomalous position of
favoring it in theory. but doubling it's
practicaDility and Its expediency as a
party measure. AS to the important
articles to be added to the free list, there
is no longer any question they will en-
brace wool, lumber, iron ore. coal, salt,
cotton, bagging, binding twine, rice and
many other commodities Of less import
ance. The present bounty on sugar
will be repealed. but it is still possible
the committee may decide to impose a
slight import duty in order to satisfy
the sugar-cane men of the South and
the beet raisers of the West. There is
little probability, however, of the duty
being as high as that requested by the
American manufacturerS-119c cents per
pound. The highest duty thus far dis
cusssed is 1 cent per pound, and the
opinion of most of the committee seems
divided between half cent a pound
and admitting it entirely free Of duty.

BIG PENSION FRAUDS.

the bureau has unearthed at Buffalo.
n. Y, a wholesale scheme for defraud-
ing the Office. They are not a little dis
turbed that the publication should have

that it will hinder them in bringing
the guilty persons to Justice. The Post
this morning announces the name of the
person who has been carrying on this
scheme to be w. Boen Moore, who was

were engineered by Attorney Moore.
The pension bureau refused to give any
