SPOILS IN INDIANA.

An Independent Paper Shocked at the Ra-
pacity of Hoosier Democrats.
Boston Transcript.
Indiana, the State of Voorhees,, has q
very thin veneer of civil-servlce reformers
among its population. Therefore ii might
be anticipated that the most palpable vio-
lations of the doctrine would occur there.

dence. the supposed Democratic aDpointee
for Fort Wayne bears off the prize. His
name is w. w. RockhIll. and he is

he comes rightly by his immense stock of
Indiana assurance. Representative Mo-
Nagny. his hacker, might not be able to Sc

insolence OF Democratic party leaders in

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-Therc are
various estimates of the value of Mr..
Blaine's estate. Careless guessers have
believed him to have been worth from
100000 to 81 100000. A careful
estimate of all OF Mr.. Blaine's financial
interests place his fortune, however, at
about $500, 900. Although AN excellent
business man, and with manv oppor-
tunities for profitable investments. Mr..
Blaine has lived expensively, and his
political compaigns have cost him
heavily.
He supported generously three estab-
| lishments, at Augusta, Bar Harbor and
Washington. The Augusta property is
worth $50. 900. his Bar Harbor place as
much as that, while his Investments in
local enterprises in New England will
probably foot up $4,000. Mr.. Blaine
owned two houses here. the one in which
he died and the fine modern mansion on
| Dupont circle, which has been occupied
for some years by Mr.. Letter, the retired
merchant from Chicago. These houses
together are worth about $125, 900.
Mr.. blaine's holding in West Virginis
railroad stocks and coal lands were
large, and he owned 1000 acres of thu
richest coal lands near Pittsburg. Thi
property. it is said, is increasing in valu
constantly, and upon the West Virgini'
portion of it in particular Mr.. Blaine pu
r a high estimate.
1t is said here that Mr.. Blaine left
will of comparatively recent date. and
is thought that Mrs. Blaine will have b.
it's terms a controlling voice in it's eXecr
ton,

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-The policy Of the
Panama Railroad company, in putting
on a line of steamships in opposition to
the Pacific Mail Steamship company has
impel.ed the latter company to reduce its
passenger rate to Colon from 500 to $50,
and it's freight rate from So to So per
ton. The Specification of this action will
be grasped. when it is considered that 1t
is eight days journey to the Isthmus.
This commercial war gains additional
Significance. too. from the alleged fact
that the management of the Panama
Railway company advertised abroad fol
foreign steamers to carry freight from
New York to the Isthmus.

LONDON, Ian. 31.-About two hundred

Tower Hill this morning and resolved to
make a display of their rags and misery
before the lords and commouers in par

direction of the parliament house. 1t
was a pitifu1 procession and excited the
sympathy and surprise of all spectators.
The police at first did not interfere
thinking that the gathering would dis
perse very soon; but when it became ap
parent that the famine stricken wretches
really meant to make scene before par
| lament, the police dispersed them.
