PREsIDENT-BLECT SUMMONS HIM.

No worthIer Statesman Could BE En-
trusted with the Conduct of State
Affairs While the President Devotes
His whole Time to Tariff Reform.
Foreign Affairs just as Mr.. Bayard
Left Them.
LAKEWOOD, N. j.. Jan. 24.--Mr.
Cleveland made a hasty visit to New
York yesterday returning here in time to
meet Ex-Secretary of State Thomas F.
Bayard, of Delaware, who came by ap.
pointment. Mr. Bayard left Washing
ton at 10 this afternoon and should
have reached here at 5.35. By missing
railroad connections at Philadelphia he
was forced to journey on to Writings
junction, where he was forced to wait
an hour so as to catch way train.
AS soon as Mr.. Cleveland learned
that his late Secretary of State had
missed his train he waited at the little
depot here until the train pulled in Mr..
Cleveland quickly stepped up to the car
and extending his hand said: "Why,
Tom, how are you"
Mr.. Bayard greeted the President elect
very cordially, and after the baggage,
which consisted of several trunks, had
been looked after the party were taken
in private bus to the Cleveland cot
tage
OF course, Mr.. Bayards arrival has re-
vived the rumor of his probable return to
to the Cabinet and to his old position,
though it is understood that he had upon
the first intimation from Mr.. Cleveland
that he might expect to resume that po'
sition, informed the President elect that
he would prefer. if agreeable, to enter
the diplomatic service. Aud even now ii
may be that Mr.. Cleveland is only seek
ing Mr. Bayard's counsel in determining
upon the remainder of his Cabinet
Senator Carlisle is also expected dowI
this week, and possibly Mr.. Whitney.
Mr.. Cleveland will be very busy herr
until he goes to Washington. In addi
tion to his political work he has to settl'
up his business affairs in New York pre-
paratory to his four years in the White
House.

NORFOLK CONNECTIONS RESUMED.
TransportatioDs Over the Chesapeake
Resumed To-day by the n. ", PAN.


Resumed To-day by the n. ", p. a. n.
The Delaware Division train known as
the Old Point express, due in this city
at A. 10 was delayed four hours and ffty
minutes this morning. The ice in the
Chesapeake bay, at which place the N.
Y, P. & N. passengers from Norfolk are
compelled TO cross the bay on barges
for thirty-six miles, was almost impas-
sible.
The Norfolk connections of the train
leaving this city at Ills has been for
several days abandoned, because Of the
difficulty in crossing the Chesapeake
between Norfolk and Cape Charles. The
transportation, however. was again begun
this morning and future connections will
not be interferred with.
One cause of the abandonment Of
these connections is that the railroad
company desired that the crossing Of the
bay be done by daylight.

The Khedive's Opposition TO the English

LONDON, Jan. 24.-The latest des-
patches state that the hostility of the
khedive towards the English shows no
signs of abating. In arguing the threat
uttered by Lord Cromer to the effect
that a complete change of regime might
be necessary in the event of resistance
to British authority, the khedive replied
that he only yielded to force. The
khedive has been strengthed in his
attitude of ..atagonism towards the
English by deputations from the prov
inces headed by local officials hostile to
British control These deputations have
addressed the khedive in fulsome and
iattering language, congratulating him
on his opposition to the English.

Two years ago the Myers voting
machine was brought into the state and
efforts were made to induce the General
Assembly TO adopt it instead of passing
an Australian ballot bill. Everyone was
satisfied with the mechanical simplicity
of the machine as well as its
facilities for ensuring a secret vote and
a fair count. The question then arose,
whether such mechanical registration OF
the viii of the people would be uncon
stitutional. Furthermore, could the
simple turning of pieces of mechanism
be called casting "ballot" as the con

The Fee Question In England.

In discussing "What to Give When
Visiting" a writer in London paper
brings out some curious history of
old time English feeling.
"In town." he says, 1.-The feeling sys-
tenn is certainly on the decline For
merly fees we're given under the
name of walls to servants by dinner
guests and ball guests and even by
luncheon guests. This is now quite
a thing of the past. Fashionable So
ciety does not give and is not expect
ed to give. The middle classes, how
ever, still retain this old fashioned
custom-they give their crowns and
half crowns to the parlor maids, and
even mention this when engaging
them. I often give luncheon par
ties, remarks an old lady to an ap-
plicant for her situation, and you
will find my friends are very gener-
ous.'
''Such trifiing fees, however, could
not be looked upon as a tax, but
they were a trouble, and they have
fallen into abeyance At the thea.
ters the feeling system is rapidly dis
appearing, to the great satisfaction
of the public, who feel that quite
enough is charged for seats without
having to pay to be shown into
them" "
