The Rag-Pickers, Queen.

From the New York Recorder.
The "Queen of the Dumps" was
in the doleful dumps yesterday.
The fates have at last come up
with her, and she, who made con-
tract, will soon discover that the
laws of the great State of New
York will sometimes not stand
fooling with,
Her name is COncietta l.. Abate,
and in the eyes of an Italian rag
picker she is as beautiful as an
houri-that is, if the hours are
really beautiful. She is fat and
dark, with peachy skin and lus-
trOus black eyes. Big loops of
gold hang from her ears, and alto
gether she is dream of loveliness
for street-Cleaner and rag-picker.
The Offense charged against Con-
cietta is bigamy, trigamy, quadrig-
amy, or heaven knows what degree
of pOlygamous crime. 1t is said
that she would marry rag-pickers
who had accumulated some little
wealth, cajOle their money from
them and then desert them only to
repeat the profitable honeymoon
ing. Four victims have been dis
covered up to date, and the end is
not yet. Francisco Rubano, of
Newark, Was the worm who turned
He found another husband willing

Her counsel, Moses GrOssman
tried to get her out on bail, but
Justice Mcmahon fixed the bail al
$4,000, and she had to go to prison
where she will await trial for hel
sins.

be got at and verified, it probably
will be in course of time. The ODD
part about the business is that
Mr.. Cleveland knew all about
this mans testimony when he set
aside the decision of Secretary
Herbert in this matter and him
self made one very much mo re
favorable to Carnegie, who evident
~ knew whose interest he was
serving when he publicly en-
dOrsed the Wilson tariff bill in its
original form, before going to Eu-
rope for an indefinite stay.
The explanation fever is no
longer monopoliZed by Demo-
cratic senator's. Representative
Richardson, of Tennessee, had a
very bad case of it, when, in reply
to the charge of local paper that
he had been using his position as
a member of the House COM
mittee on the District of Column
bia to speculate in real
estate, he explained by saying that
he had bought some real estate on
speculation, which he. sold to real
estate agent, Notwithstanding that
it was purchased for a street rail-
way company which had bill be-
fore the d. c. committee, and that
it was mere coincidence that he
(Mr. Richardson) happened as a
member of that committee to re-
port bill favorable to the House,
which that railway company was
very anxious to have passed, just
four days after the sale of that real
estate. Such condolences are dan
gerous to public men.
The last Democratic Senator to
make an explanation was Ransom
of n. c., who confessed, after the
facts had been ascertained by
newspaper men, that his son, who
is his committee clerk, had been
specializing in sugar trust stock.
1t is not probable that Mr.. Ransom
would have ever said anything
about it if the Senate investigating
committee had not in Difference to
a general public demand examined
every Senator at present in Wash
iugton, going alphabetically
through the list. Senator Quay sur
prised nearly everybody when he
testified that he had specialized
in sugar stock; that he had per-
feet right to do so, and would
whenever he felt so inclined. The
greatest interest is felt in the tes-
timony of Senator German, who is
still absent and reported to be sick.
1t may be that Senator German
will join the other Democratic
Senators who helped him fix up
the sugar schedule in denying
everything, but there is reason to
believe that he could tell some
very sensational things in connec-
ton with this business if so dis
posed. But it is hardly probable
that he will be so disposed when
his testimony is taken. r.

POLITICAL PELLETS.

The Man at the Court House Says
What He Sees and Hears of
the Leaders Tactics.
The Democratic party Of Bexar
is still split wide open, and. like
the little girl in blue and her hus-
band, are drifting apart.
OF course there is all kinds of
talk of harmony, but no harmony
worth a cent, as yet.
1T is a case of one side wants
what the other cannot give, or one
is afraid and the other dare not:
in either case it is just as bad.
They say Nat is getting away
with Bryan; but just wait for the
sequel.
Bryan may be in the soup but
he'll float on top and drop of, leav-
ing the other fellow at the bottom
of the tureen.
1t would be interesting if some
one would find out how the vari-
Gus candidates are connected by
family ties. This would explain
much.
The tall sycamore of local politics
is at work and Lilliputian giant
follows in his trail.
The big three are watching the
big four and the little four are
with the big three.
The wool over Paschal's eyes has
blinded him and he is politically
dead. Noonan is the man for this
district but if he won't run, the
odds are on Geo. P.
The Republican split still con-
tinues.
Wise men of the party call for
hdIulOuy duu hSNSl was IuclS 81
great necessity for it.
Put aside all personality and let{
all unite for the common good and
then Republicanism will be known
and felt.
The true Republican is he that
can put aside personal interests
for the good of the party.
The idea that all officers should
be paid by stipulated salary, and
not by fees, is growing, and will, in
the end prevail.
AS it is, few know what the Of
ficer gets, and the highest officers
are the poorest paid.
Pay each officer fair salary, and
let all necessary fees, or charges, be
paid into the county treasury.
Wait, watch and see, ere you
promise to vote for any man.
For binations and develop
ments may arise that may make
the pledged man sorry that he
spoke.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, June Is.

WASHINGTON, June Is.
1t would be difficult to say
whether the sugar trust Demo-
cratic Senators or the men who COM
pose the sugar trust are the most
frightened just now. The danger
ahead of the sugar schedule is no
longer, thanks to robust express
sion of public opinion by the news
papers of the country, confined to
the House. A movement is now
on foot to modify the sugar sched-
ule before the formal vote is taken
in the Senate. If it were not for
absolute pledges which Democratic
Senators have made there
would be no doubt of the sue
cess of the movement. Still the
disgust of some of them is so
marked that they may repudiate
their pledges, preferring to offend
the sugar trust rather than to lose
the respect Of thousands of their
constituents.
The week opened with much I'M
certainty concerning the tariff bill.
Senator Harris expected to have
disposed of the wool schedule by
the middle of last week, but it is
still undispOsed of, although it will
be finished early this week, unless
the threat to fillbuster until some
duty is put upon wool shall be car.
RED out. 1t is expected that the
debate on the income tax will &C.
cupy nearly or quite week, and it
is not yet certain that it will be
reached this week. So there is
little probability that the final
vote will be reac he'd before the first
of July.
That "there are more ways to
kill dog than hanging" is proven
by the manner in which Mr.. Cleve-
land is trying to make Congress
obey his request, not to enter upon
any financial legislation at this
session. The bill providing for a
currency commission which shall
spend six months in investigating
the subject before submitting its
recommendation to Congress, is
Mr.. Cleveland's scheme to prevent
action upon any financial bill, and
the administration influence is
being used to get it favorably re,
ported from House committee or
Banking and Currency.

first information (for which he re

BEATS THE YANKEES.
The Thrift of French Boarding
House Keeper.
EFrom the New York SUM-

from the New York SUM-
A second illustration of French thrift,
beside which Yankee methods resemble
almost Oriental extravaganza, is the
catering done by little French board
ing house keeper. She supplies small
rooms and two meals day to dodgers
of modest means, who boast OF her
table. 1t is, indeed, quite royalty spread,
and literally from the kitchens of mil
lionaires. A year ago 1T occurred to
her. as she went to market in the morn
ing, that the garbage cans sent out
from the areaways of fine houses be-
trayed a lamentable wastage of good
food. She was visited by a great idea
and acted upon it by having interviews
with the cooks of several uptown man
sions. The result was that for small
consideration these cooks consented
to permit her the privilege of making
what selection she wished from the
plates and dishes returned to the kitch-
en- from the mistress table, after the
cook had made certain reservations
Here was a wealth of material beyond
the dreams of any boarding house
gourmand. The little Frenchwoman
rarely goes to the regular market, but
once a day makes her rounds of the
kitchens. She carries a basket lined
with zinc and divided into compart-
ments. and fork. Her selections from
the plates and dishes are made with
the utmost discretion, and in her own
kitchen every scrap is turned to the
most tempting and wonderful account.
Her expenses have been greatly re-
duced and her boarders look forward
to her meals with eager anticipation
