ACCUSED OF PLAGIARISM.
One Of Talmage's Sermons Cred
tied to Wendell PhiIIiDs.

NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-Dr. Dewitt
Talmadge, who has recently discovered
that he has come under the lmputation
of having plagiarized one of his
most important sermons: "Chris-
tian Citizenship, or the Chris
tian at the Ballot Box"
preached some twenty-five years ago is
now seeking redress. He has instrcuted
his counsel, Gen. b. f. Tracey, to take
immediate steps 10 set him right in the
III after.
Mr.. Talmage'S sermon at the time II
was delivered created considerable
comment and discussion, and it
was shortly afterwards published.
Since that time the body of the
sermon, and all its principal features
were republished in Maynard Merrill d
Co.'s practical Reader" and there
credited to Wendell Phillips. Through
this means the sermon gained consider
able additional publicity, and many
people who came across it in its
condensed form in the reader"
and IN Its original form as
DR.. Ialmage's publication, became
confused as to who really was its author.
The result was that Dr. Talmaxe has
been accused of plagiarism, and he now
sets forth to convince the public that
the article in question amanated from
him. In all probability an action will be
brought against the firm If they uues-
ton Dr. Talmage's authorship, and do not
afford the redress which he considers is
only proper. DR.. Talmage has begun
by sending out the following letter:
brooklyn, n. Y, Nov. 16.-To Whom
1t May Concern: A great wrong has
been done me. My sermon on Christ
ian Citizenship or The Christian at
the Ballot Box which l preached
and published about twenty years ago.
and which may be found in one of the
volumes of my sermons, published at
the time by Harper Bros, has been re
published in compressed form in May
nard, Merrill IL Co.'s practical Read
er," pages 185, 1S6 and 1877, and there
credited to Wendell H. Philips. From
letters recently received from all
parts of the country it is evident
that this publication by Maynard. Mer-
rill q Co., puts HE under the charge of
plagiarism, charge that L will not
abide. The article quoted is mine. and
l do not believe that Wendell Phillips
ever delivered it. | have instructed nv
counsel, Gen. B. F. Tracy, to take i'm
mediate steps to set me right in this i'm
portant matter.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-The treasury
balance was still further depleted today
to the extent OF $780, 600. The loss was.
however, entirely in the currency bal
ance, which was reduced over a million.
as the net gold reserve increased half
a million dollars today. The net bal
ance stands at S97, 1856, ,595, Of which
$50, 400, S91 is the gold reserve The re-
ceipts of the government for this month
are not as heavy as was hoped, and the
deficit in the governments account
shows alreadya loss of nearly $780,
600. The receipts have been S14 600.
and the expenditures SIC, ,365, 900. This
makes the total deficits so far this fiscal
year 29,000,000, the proportionate loss
this month being much greater than for
the preceding four months.
Mr.. Eckels, the comptroller of the
currency, is hard at work on his report,
and expects to have it finished by the
end of the week. probably. It is under
stood that he will make several recon-
mendations for changes in the banking
law. 1t is expected that among other
things he will recommend a system by
which the national bank currency may
take the place of all others in existence.

The annual report of ]. Fount Till
man, the register of the treasury, shows
that in October, 1898, the value of regis
tered bonds which were supposed to be
held by persons of foreign nationality
amounted to about S1S.S00,O00, of which
only 1880, 800 appeared upon the for
eign ledgers. Although the report says
no claim for accuracy can be made for
the above indicated amount held by
foreign owners, it must necessarily be
far nearer the actual facts than the ex-
travagant guesSes which have often
times been made and printed. No
attempt was made to estimate the
amount of United States coupon

DEADwooD, S. D., Nov. 16. - The
most horrible crime that ever took place
in the Hills was committed at noon to-
day by Joseph Thas, an Italian miner.
The crime was tiendishly planned and
deliberately executed. Some time ago
Ihas' wife left him, owing to his disso-
Lutte habits, and went to live
with her cousin. Jacco Tannitta,
and his wife. Thas on numerous
occasions sought 70 make his wife live
with him, but to no purpose. This noon
he called at their house. Shortly after
neighbors heard four shots at intervals
~ few moments, bat nothing was
: sht.of it. At , o'clock a peddler
caned at the house, and, hearing groans,
entered, thinking somebody sick. A
horrible sight met his gaze. Lying in
the woodshed was Joe Thas gasp
ing, with mortal wound in
his head, and 3S-caliber revolver in
his hand, unconscious. On the kitchen
AhNOhs ~ luS sllIh III uGdlIl, were JaCCO

their horrible wounds, inflicted by

let wounds. Mrs. Tannitta had been
struck IN the head with an AK. Playing
on the floor were Mrs. Tannitta's
two children, one an infant, and,
curled up OH Mrs. Thas' dress, two little
puppies were playing. That Thas went
to the house with murderous intent is
not doubted, as the doors were locked
on the inside. evidently by him. and the
shots were fred almost instantly after
he entered. a month ago Thas ex-
ploded bomb under Tannitta's house,
wrecking it. This last act of his was
notsGfprising to TIE neighbors, as he
was treacherous, murderous fellow.

Brown on the nigh of May 4, 1892.
George Birchell. who with his brother
Michael, was given life sentence for

Michael Birchell entirely, and only

was sentenced with his brother and
whose innocence is thought TO be firmly
established, is dying of typhoid fever at

GLASGOW, Mont, Nov. 16.-A shoot
ing occurred just outside of the Cowan
house, in Malta, this morning that may
prove fatal. The jealousy that prompts
men to murder their families was the
trouble. Lem Branson, the handsome,
popular young bartender at Mrs. Jones'
saloon, is lying almost at deaths door
in the Waldo house as a result of the
trouble. Thomas Wherry, a neighbor,
shot him. There was a dance in the
Cowan hotel Wednesday night, and the

was shot through the right

bears an enviable reputation for virtue
and has been the social leader of the

Jealousy being the cause of the trouble,

else. Both men have been range riders.
