TERRIBLY INCREASING.

At no time in the history Of New York city have
there been SO many deaths from pneumonia as
now. The Official figures show that nearly twice
as many deaths from this cause are occurring than
for the last five years This is something terrible
DR.. John t. Maggie, registrar of vital statistics
says that this increase Is due to the influence of
grip. He says that grip may be called epidemic
just and that in the majority of cases grip is
a vital, contributing cause TO pneumonia and all
dangerous pulmonary troubles At this time Of
the year when we are changing over from winter
to spring. there is always low order Of vitality;
reaction from the strains of the season. The
blood does not dow so full nor rapidly; the strength
is less For this reason grip has a much better
chance than at any other season.
This is time of year wnen people need to be
careful and too much Importance cannot be placed
upon keeping the blood warm and in circulation.
You must bring about reaction II you wish TO
avoid the pain and dangers OF these troubles il
time There Is but one way by which a reaction
can be brought about and that is by the use of a
pure stimulant, preferably whiskey. But the great
diffculty Is that there are few whiskeys which are
pure The only really pure and reliable whiskey

Dan Richardson was warmly greeted when he

had made the fight of his life last year for the
home team in spite Of lack of support and oppo-

the time he was made captain to the time his
connection with the club ceased he never, he
says, had full charge Of the team. Richardson
says that he has been blamed for not putting
the club higher, when, as a matter Of fact. he
was never anything but manager in name. He
liked the city and the people and the way they
treated him and the team, but he didn't like
the management. Richardson likes the Wash

of board for the forecasters when temporarily
ordered to duty in Washington. He said that
when they first came the understanding was
that they should not be paid, but this was re-
garded as a hardship, for it necessarily meant
that they were keeping up practically two es-
Establishments. Later an allowance was made for
them. and they were all allowed $150 per day.
This was not excessive in his opinion, and of
his own knowledge he knew that many Of them
had paid more than that out Of their own
pockets.

But what questions could be put to man on
matter OF which he admitted that he knew
nothing even by such an interested party as
Mr.. Mclaughlin or such an adroit lawyer as
Mr.. Perry?
This brought the hearing to an abrupt close,
and Gen. Colby remarked that the last witness
had earned the gratitude Of every one by his
brevity. The hearing was then adjourned until
Wednesday afternoon at o'clock.

Special to the New York Herald
ROME, April 80, 1s93.-A rumor to the effect
that Cardinal Gibbons is likely to be Leo Kills
successor has caused considerable amazement
here, and doubtless Cardinal Gibbons himself
will have been as much surprised by the report
as his Roman friends. Never has there been
any talk here of Cardinal Gibbons for the
crushing task of conducting the church. The
next pope will in all likelihood be an Italian.
The only non-Italian who would have had
serious hopes Of succeeding the present pontif
was the late Cardinal Lavigerie Cardinal
Galimberti and Cardinal Kopp have been men
toned as papabiii. but neither has much
chance, although the former may in certain
eventualities, become the papal secretary of
state.
The choice of Mgr. Kahn of Wheeling for
the st. Louis archbishoprc seems certain, but
1t has still to be confirmed. Mgr Kahn has
from the first been sympathetic to Mgr Sa-

A Lesson for Mrs. Mccarthy.

Mrs. Mary Mccarthy lives on B street south
west and her neighbors have had reason to CON-
plain of her conduct. She was noisy and had
thrown house slops out the front window.
which created a nuisance calculated to spread
cholera or some other disease and this was the
principal reason for the complaint. Policeman
Bowie called to investigate the complaint yes
terday, and Mrs. Mccarthy was not only bois-
ferrous. but she emptied a slop jar out of the
window, and luckily for the officer he was not
directly beneath the window. Mrs. Mccarthy
was arrested and this morning she was ar
raigned in Judge Kimballs court on charges of
disorderly conduct and creating nuisance.
On the latter charge the judge said she ought
to pay heavy penalty. but as this was her first
appearance fine Of 80 was imposed in each
case.
