Will Europe Patronize the FairP

Until very recently the impression pre-
vailed that the number of European
visitors to the Chicago fair would be very
large. The latest advices from London,
however, are to the effect that the En-
glish people are not enthusiastic about
the fair, and that but comparatively few
of them are willing to spare the money it
will cost to see it. Some of the London
papers have been discussing the subject
and the conclusion at which they have ar
rived is that English people will not
leave their beaten paths to visit Chicago
cit seems to be well understood that the
fair is far greater than any one that has
preceded it, but one London paper says
that it is not probable there will be much
at the fair that is novel. In other words;
the English press is writing down" the
fair in a mild way.
1t looks very much as if there is fear in
Europe that America will get back a
little of the money Americans spend so
lavishly in Europe. Europeans believe in
keeping their money at home and getting
all the money they can from Americans.
The fair can, of course, get along with
out any European visitors. Still it would
be gratifying to have large numbers of
them see Just what is being accomplished
here, and how far this country is ahead
of any country of Europe in everything
that tends to make a country rich and
prosperous.
If it be true that few Europeans are
coming to the fair the steamships will
have a pretty hard time of it this summer.
With but few passengers either going or
coming they will find it difficult to make
expenses and fixed charges, if in fact they
succeed in doing 50.

The harbor defense vessel Monterey,
recently built at San Francisco, is pc
culiarly unfortunate vessel. Ever since
she was put into the water she has
been in trouble. Her machinery has
played tricks on the examiners and build
ers half dozen times, necessitating as
many overhaulings and as many trial
trips. A few days ago, after all the
kinks had been Strengthened out, she set
out on one of her periodical trial trips.
Everything went along smoothly for a
few miles, when the boilers sprang aleak
and perspired so freely in the fire-box
that the fires went out In this plight,
and with the propellers turning feebly,
she ran into three fish nets. In an in
slant the nets had bec"me tangled in the
propeller blades and the mighty warshiu
was whipped. She had to cast anchor on
the spot, and at last advices she was still
anchored there.

A story of the Joe Mulhatton type is to
the effect that Pennsylvania man few
days ago shot at an extraordinarily large
flock of wild geese as they sailed over his
head, with the result that 200 and odd
pairs of feet were cut off but not a goose
killed Probably the MANNED geese sailed
on toward Georgia and arrived over the
little town of Glenwood on Friday morn

furnish an explanation of the shower Of
blood that fell there at that time.

President Cleveland, it seems, is not all
statesman; there is some man-iust plain,
everyday, unqualified MANN him. He
had refused innumerable temptations in
the shape of free passes until the Wash
ington base ball people rendered him a
season ticket to the ball games. Then he
fell. Having accepted the pass he must
go to see the games, or he will be called
an migrate. And when he goes, then will
begin the trouble. Should he stand on
one leg and shout for the home team, the
balance of the country would rise up as
one man and protest For he is the Presi-
dent of the United States, and that would
be showing Partially. Should he shout
against Washington he would be open to
theaccusation of having offered an afTront
to his hosts, for he would be there as the
guest of the Washingtons Further, sup
pose at some critical period the
umpire should give the game to the
other side, the President would be de-
barred the pleasure of going down and
helping TO mob him, for persons who go
in on free passes have no such prerogative.
1t really seems that Mr.. Cleveland has at
last got himself hopelessly involved.

REDWINE A DUMB WITNESS
He Refuses TO Say a Word Before the
Grand Jury.

A Sensation Caused by the Subp@nas
on Which He Was Summoned Be-
fore the Jury-They Were Issued in
Alleged Cases Against L. J. Hill and
Ed McCandless.
Atlanta, Ga, May THE Redwine in
! vestlgation was carried through in a SEN
sational way to-day. For some time Dis
| trict Attorney James has been trying to
get Lewis Redwine, the defaulting ex-
| cashier of the Gate City Bank, to come
! before the grand jury and testify. Red
wine has succeeded in getting out of APP
| pearing three times by pleading illness
| and according to the report of the United
States physician here he was sick. To
| day, however, Redwine was summoned
before the grand jury on two subpenas
and those two same subpoenas have
caused considerable sensation here, as
public opinion is divided Col James and
the grand jury knew well that
it would be impossible to bring Redwine
before that honorable body by issuing a
subpoena for Redwine's appearance in
the case of the United States against
Lewis Redwine They were fully aware
z
TO use the name of any person, even tic-
tlous appellation, in order TO get at what
is desired by that honorable body.
THE TWO sUBPGNAs.
The two suponas upon which Red
wine was called before the United States
grand jury to-day were issued in the
cases OF the United States against L. j.
Hill and Ed. McCandless. BY the friends
OF the two gentlemen named the alleged
cases are regarded as a subterfuge on the
part of the grand jury in order to get
Redwine to testify. At least this is one
Of the constructions that can be placed
upon them, and the other construction
can only be that the grand jury is work
ing on the idea that McCandless and Hill
are involved.
DECLINED TO TESTIFY.
When Redwine was taken before the
grand jury he absolutely refused to an
swer a single question. Col james. Col
Rucker, Capt. jackson and Judge New
man held consultation and Redwine was
given a second chance to testify. He re-
fused, however, and was granted a rule
nisi, and tomorrow at 10 o'clock Redwine
will be given a chance to defend the posi-
ton he has taken

portance was Col r.. f. Maddox, who
stated that it was his bank and not the

terson $32, 900.

The Drought in Europe.

The dry weather of which there was a
great deal of complaint in portions of this
country recently seems to have extended
over large portion of Europe. Cable
dispatches from Berlin, London and
Paris, dated April 30, contain extended
references to the prevailing drought. A
Berlin dispatch says that throughout
Germany the farmers are wailing over
the lack of rain, that the land is baked
and that unless rain comes soon the
crops will be seriously damaged. The
air is so dry that great difficulty is ex-
perienced in operating certain kinds of
factories, which require moist atmos-
phere.
A London dispatch says that in Eng
land and France the leading topic of con-
versation is the phenomenal dry spell of
weather. In England the length of the
drought is without a parallel, and in
France nothing like it has been expert
enced since 1898.
Naturally the people are beginning to
feel some alarm. The supply of green
vegetables in the market is remarkably
small, and the prices demanded for them
place them outside of the reach of the
poor. Sickness also has begun to appear
in some places that is directly attribut-
able to the lack of rain. Stock is suffer-
ing greatly because there is an almost en-
tire failure of pasture Unless rain comes
soon there will be great deal of suffer
ing in a very large part of Europe, owing
to. the failure of crops and the consequent
depression of business and the industries.

The ruling of the United States circuit
court of appeals in the tobacco tariff
cases will result in the refunding of some
50, 100000 to importers of leaf tobacco.
The tariff act of 1888, unGer which the
duty was levied, was worded in such
manner that in order to ascertain whether
imported tobacco was liable to duty of
IS cents a pound or 80 cents pound, it
was necessary to open each bale and han
die the leaves in examination The i'm
porters complained that this mode of pro-
cedure ruined the flavor and texture of
the finer leaves, so the collector at New
York concluded to leave the bales in
tact and arbitrarily charge a duty of IS
cents pound on all tobacco imported
The result was innumerable suits by the
importers. who alleged that most of the
tobacco was dutiable at 35 cents only
Test cases were made before the courts,
with the result above stated.
There is nothing extraordinary about
the case of Convict billiard Jones, of De
Kalb county, this state, although
certain northern newspapers are try
ing to make it appear that there
is. Under the laws of this state con
victs are leased to contractors, who work
them in mines, at saw-mills, on railroads,
or elsewhere. Under these laws Convict
Jones was leased TO lumberman in VIII
COX county. He is no more a slave"
than any other convict in any one of sew
cral states that have similar laws. At
the same time the convict lease law is
one that should be wiped off the statute
books at the earliest possible moment.
Ohio has law forbidding an employer
