Maurice L. Muhleman, at present in
charge of the subtreasury here, bears the
longest title Of any man in the employ
of the government 1t is so long that he
has had to have a special rubber stamp
made to save the time Of writing, and it
reads as follows: ACTING assistant to
treasurer United States in charge, ad
interim, of Office of assistant treasurer
United States, New York"
Mr.. Muhleman is also the cashier, SO
that when he signs receipts and other
papers now he adds the word cashier"
to his signature and stamps the above
document to complete his official title

Wnat Your Great Grandmother Did
She hetcheled the flax and carded
the wool, and wove the linen. and
spun the tow, and made the clothes for
her husband and ten children. She
made butter and cheese, she dipped tai
low candles, to light the house at night,
and she cooked all the food for her
household by an open fireplace and a
brick oven. Yes; and when she was
forty years of age, she was already an
old lady whose best days were over.
Her shoulders were bent and her joints
enlarged by hard work, and she wore
spectacles and cap. Her great grand
daughter, with all the modern con-
veniences for comfort, refinement and
luxury, may be as charming and at
tractive at forty-five as at twenty.
Especially is this true if she preserves
her health and beauty by the use of

claims that the Sherman bill will not

CUTTING DOWN WAGES
How the Price of Labor is Beng
Knocked Down at the Steel Works.

"a
Some sweeping reductions have
been made in the price of labor in
several departments of the steel
works. Whether it is done for
economy on account of the hard
times or whether it is done in order
to have a re iuced scale of wages to
adopt when the mill begins opera
tions again in the future, are ques-
tions much discussed. Inasmuch
as the mill will shut down presen tly
for Il time it is rather late to begin
economizing for this run, and the
conclusion is easily reached that it
plan to run the works on a
cheaper scale when they open up
again. Here are few instances in
which cuts have been made:
In the bloom mill the furnace
men used to get S27O per hundred
tons and they made from 81 to 50 per
day; now they get 1925 per day
straight and work II hours
The pointer at the rolls was re-
The man who takes scrap from
the bloom mills shears used to get
$2.70 per bundled tons. He is also
paid 81 % per day straight.
In the rail mill the hot saw
man got $8.2O per hundred tons
now he is paid S2.25 per day.
The men who carry away scrape
used to get $20o per day which has
been reduced to 5l65.
All laborers in the finishing de-
partment who were formerly paid
from Sl.9s to 1925 have been cut to
Sl.65. Twelve hours constitute n
day in all this work.
The men who pile faggots used to
get 60 cents per ton; now they are
paid % cents per ton.
The small rail straighteners form
erly received 85 per ton but now are
also reduced to % cents.
The liremen at the rail mill boilers
have been denied Of their helpers
and now get their own coal and do
extra work at the same wages.
The machinists have all been put
on straight time. Heretofore they
were allowed time and half for
Sunday and night work but now
they get the same wages all through
Cuts have been made elsewhere but
these will sutlic to show that the
wages of the laboring man are being
cornered.
1t has not yet been learned how
much the salaries of Supt L. w.
Robinson and his lieutenants have
have been cut down but it is Reason
able to suppose they have been re-
duced at least onehalf.

A GREAT COMPANY.

The principal members are Mrs. John
Drew who played with Joseph Jetfer-
son for several years, Mckee Rankin
Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney Drew, Charles
Erin Werner, Owen Fawcett and Frank
Mills. l don't think it is any exaggera-
tion to say that it is as strong an organ
izaton of its kind as ever started from
New York. Mrs. Drew is so well known
and such universal favorite with play
roers that it seems superfluous to more
than mention her name. And l might
saw the same of Mr.. Rankin whose
meritorious work in various plays is
familiar to all. Mrs. Drew, his daughter,
and her husband belong to families of
actors and actresses. They have Won
an enviable position en- the stage and
have starred together. Mr.. Werner has
also been a star, Mr.. Fawcstt is an
actor OF varied experience and was for
seyaral seasons with Booth, Barrett,
Jefferson and other notable attractions
and Mr.. Mills is regarded as an ac-
complished performer.

THE mere declaration that the
government is committed to future
blmetallic standard is the thinnest
kind of bosh. If a senator or con-
gresham favors bimetallism the
only way to attest the fact is to vote
for it. The American people have
been fed too long on empty promises
and platform pledges to accept any
such transparent humbug as the
declaration tackled on to the tail of
the Voorhees, repeal bill. The time
to do silver good turn is now No
more contemplate straddles. No
NOR. postponements.-Denver Times
The Bessemer indicator., 1893-08-26

IT does seem as If certain con-
gressmen would grow tired saying
that they hold to the use of both
gold and silver and yet are only
waiting a chance to vote for the un-
repeal of the Sherman
act. The trick is too transparent.
The old ily-blowed excuse is too stale
and deceives no one. No straddling
goes in this business.

IT is estimated that there are
100, 1000 men, women and children in
New York city who are in want
Other large cities have their pro
portion of the needy and for the
present there is nothing to be done
but for the municipal governments
to afford immediate relief, but it
does look as if the statesmen OF the
land could devise ways and means
of giving those people start in
life and enable them to live indie
pendent of charity. If congress
would only spend one session in the
laudable work of bettering the
condition of the poor what happy
change there would be for millions of
people who are fast drifting toward
pauperism and revolution.

JuDGING from the speeches of the
various members of congress it is still
wide of the mark of n settlement 1t
is apparent that the Sherman pur-
chasing act cannot be repealed un-
conditionally, and it is also evident
that an out and out free coinage act
cannot be passed The debaters on
each side are taking advantage of
every opportunity to gain ground
and strengthen its cause. One day
it is n silverltc who turns goldbug
and the day following the conditions
are changed. AT present it is the
weight of .lc veto and money
power on the one side and numerical
strength on the other The situa-
ton is strained and compromise
must be the outcome of ii all.
Neither side can gain all it is after
and an understanding must be reach
ed on middle ground. There is
policy in compromise and those who
seek to bring it about ut the earliest
possible hour will be regarded as
the statesmen of wisdom.

fall festivities that for brilliancy and
variety outshines the carnival cities of
the old world
Paris, the most magnificent city on either
continent, has for ages held tho proud title
of f"the premier carnival city Of the world.
However, turing the last ten or twelve years
nm American rival of no mean pretensions
has contested for that high honor, and to-
day st. Louis holds what Paris so reluctantly
relinguished, the title of "thc carnival city

An apt Estimate Of Senator VOorhee's IS
Speech.


Speech.
The Denver Times has this pointed
and pithy editorial on the much
talked of speech of Mr.. VOORHEES, de-
livered in the senate last Tuesday.
"rhc speech was just what was
expected. 1t is in line with the
bin, and when that is said the story
is told. The speech is the speech of
willy lawyer-tbe speech of sail
trimming politician. 1t is full of
glittering Generalities and cunning
evasions. 1t pretends to favor
bi-metallism, and yet makes of
Grover Cleveland n little tin god on
wheels, and of the presidents posi-
tion with regard to silver n mouu-
ment of fairness. 1t seeks to carry
to n successful ending the bunco
game outlined in the bill which
bears the senator's name, and which
seeks to make the people of this
country its victims.
Senator Voorhees,, you are before
the bar of the people. You must
stand either for silver or against 1t.
You do neither. Your speech is n
mouthing fraud, the word-paintinp
of n lie.
