New Workers Are No, sa,,sneo.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1l.-Mayor Gilroy and
E. V. Skinner, bridge trustee, have had a
conference about making arrangements
for grand New York City day at the
Worlds fair. Skinner said that the trans
portation to and from Chicago and hotel
accommodations there for three days, with
admission to the grounds, could be had for
$40. All the trunk lines, he felt sure,
would go into the scheme. He proposed
that the Seventh regiment he taken along
and that various trades.organizations and
other associations send delegations. II
this plan could be carried out New York's
crowd would eclipse every other special
day at the fair.

Teller then said: The senator from
Missouri cannot change my opinion as to
the mendacity of the public press OF the
country. 1 know that the day of great
newspapers, edited by great editors, is
past; and that the publication of a news
paper is like the running of a manufac-
tory. 1t is for money. l do not mean to
say that they are always false, or even
sometimes false; but | mean to say that
they no longer represent the public 1t is

may depend entirely upon who owns the
stock of the paper, or it may depend en-
tirely upon the private views of somebody
who writes the editorial.
"They are no longer headed by men like
Horace Greeley and Henry j. Raymond,
whom we all remember. There is no such
a paper in the country. And, therefore
when the senator from Missouri says that
the article in The American is unreliable

was mendacious and impudent.

child to the president of the United States
is matter Of no more moment to the peo-
pie of this republic, except to "the friends
Of the family" than the birth of any other
baby. But there is one difference to be
noted in such matter, and that is that
the president has more friends than any
other man in the country. So In that way
more people are interested d in his joys and
sorrows. Consequently when ON Satur-
day morning little girl came to put Miss
Ruth's nose out of joint about all the men,
at least, in the country were just little
sorry in sympathy with the probable feel
ings OF the president, that it wasn't boy
But it wasn't and Mr.. Cleveland is
happy enough anyhow, for mother and child
are both dong well and the little woman
is healthy and sound. But this same little
woman has been honored with distinc-
tion that up to her appearance no child
ever possessed. She is the first child of a
president born in the White House.
Others have drawn their first breath in
that historic mansion, but they were not
children of the president. Since the event
letters and kilograms of congratulation
hare been pouring in upon the president,

The National Cave of the Winds. ~.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1l.-In the senate
notice of speeches to come on the repeal
bill have already been given sufficient to
hil in the greater part of this week and
others are known to be in course of prep
aration. so that in the absence of an agree
ment of some kind there is no reason to
believe that vote ON the bill can be
reached this week; and as matter Of fact
no one in the senate has any idea how
long the debate will last. AS senate rules
now stand the only thing needed is some
body who wants to speak-that will stave
off action. Well, there is Morgan who can
speak week if he feels WELL and plenty
OF other silver men who can keep the
debate going until the snow flies
