TELEPHONE IN HIS HAT.
Novel Means of convicting Bold Black
mailer.

by the United Press.
Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. by fitting up a
small telephone in his silk hat, to
which was attached slender gold wire
connecting with telephone held by a
detective outside, DIR. Peter Jauss has
secured the evidence necessary to con-
vict Lawyer Charles Ioas of blackmail
The doctor had been paying the law
yer sums of money for suppressng
some disagreeable private history, but
when his wife received a letter threat
ening her he rebelled, and, with the
novel telephone attachment in his hat,
went to the Office of Ioas, and got him
to admit that he had written the letter.
The detective outside at the other end
of the telephone heard the confession,
and the lawyer was arrested after
listening in astonishment to the clever
manner by which he was caught.

A Pertinent Question,

The Mahdi Is said to be massing troops
for the purpose Of driving the Italians
out Of Kassala. and the question arises,
What will Great Britain do In case Italy
fails to hold her own In that quarter?
1t will be remembered that when the
full importance of the Kassala achieve
ment dawned upon the British public. the
British papers made 1t point to remind
the Italians most emphatically that Italy
was acting on the Dark Continent vir.
tually as the advance-agent Of Great
Britain. in the matter Of opening up the
soudan. They patted the italian soldiers
on the back. called them brave boys, and
babe them keep moving until such time
as Egypt should be ready to reoccupy the
territory that was being invaded.
Egypt. in this connection, meant Great
Britain, of course. In view Of all this, ii
is pertinent to ask, Will Great Britain, In
case Italy meets with disaster in the
Red Sea littoral. substitute armed aid for
the moral support she has been giving
her agent?

What's to Become Of Wilson 2

This question is asked by that staunch
Republican paper. the Cincinnati Com
mercial Gazette, which assumes that
Chairman Wilson's constituents are likely
to refuse TO return him to Congress.
Our Cincinnati contemporary ought to be
better posted than It is In regard to party
matters in State which borders for hun
dreds of miles on Ohio. Chairman Wilson
is not afraid to go to Europe and leave his
fortunes in the hands of his friends
at least till the last OF September. This
fact does not indicate that he is likely to
be left at home with the consent Of the
people, as that consent is to be expressed
in the election of November next He
was renominated yesterday. 1t will be seen
by reference 10 our Geographic columns.
Whilst the Commercial is engaged in
retiring Mr.. Wilson to private life. the
Boston Herald is saying that there is
good presidential timber In William L.
Wilson,"

associates for Mr. Cleveland TO decline to
veto the bill.
But Il ID argued that the Constitution
Of the United states provides that the
President shall sign every bill which ne
''approvcs." and send back ell others 70
Congress. A suficient reply to this con-
tcntion IL the fact that the same Constr
tuition provides that II . vetoed Oil DC
"approved'' by two thirds Of each house
Of Congress II shall become law "nas
does the word approve" mean In this
connection? II means that n. for any rea-
son, the two houses OF Congress desire
the vetoed bill to become law. they
may make II law. They may have many
objections TO q bill. and yet vote TO "ap-
prove" Il. The word ives used by the
trainers OF the Constitution for the pur-
pose Of allowing laws to be made OF bills
against which the President might raise
serious objections. We suppose We might
say that TO send bill to the President
would be to approve" 1t. However this
may be. the President 10 not obliged TO
sign every bill which re approves OF
in many respects. nor to veto every bill
in which he sees many defects.
The following paragraph on another
point is from the Alexandria Gazette:
THE Richmond Dispatch says the Presl.
dent will not be Inconsistent whether
he shall or shall not sign the German
tariff bill Individually; but many people
think him great deal worse. as by
not signing that bill when II was passed.
but allowing II to become law by the
operation of time. he turned many mil.
lions OF dollars that would otherwise have
gone into the public treasury into the
already-surcharged Golfers OF the Sugar
and Whiskey trusts"
Surely this is an unjust complaint. 1t
was no easy matter for the President to
make UP his mind. And he took no more
time TO consider the DILL than the Consti.
tuition allowed him. He was besieged by
day and by night. He had no peace
whilst he was in an undecided frame Of
mind. In fact. the Gazette finds fault
where fault there was none.

KATE MARsDEN CONFESSED.
Mira Z. II. Grannis Says She Admitted She
Was Guilty OF Misconduct.

What with accusations Of all sorts pour

lemons annears TO be having a hard row
to hoe these days -,
TIC last straw TO be added to the load
~ her af,,,ctions is the statement Of Mrs.
Elizabeth b. Grannis, president or the
National Christian League for the Fro
motion of Social Purity. to the effect tnat
Mics Marsden is entirely unit to assoc

persons A..
"Shortly after the opening or the
Worlds Fair" said Mrs. Grannis at her
home No. 80 west Twenty-second street.
Yesterday, IT was in Chicago and re-
ceiyed a visit from Miss Marsden. she
wished to be allowed to speak on the
platform of the Social Purity Society.
HAD BEEN WARNED AGAINST HER.
"Now had received many warning
letters relative to Miss Marsdeh from
various bodies, including the King 8
Daughters and National Womans Coun-
ell. These letters. besides referring to the
fact that she had Incorporated mis-
sionary funds, also accused her OF con-
duct which, II the statements were true
would render her unfit to associate with
decent people.
81 told her that she was either fiend
iucarnate or a much-persecuted woman,
and that I would give her chance to
disprove the aspersions on her character
before a committee. The next day Miss
Marsden met several ladies' in the Art
Building in the FAIRGROUNDS. j was pres
emit. Several OF us told her of the charges
that had been made against her. At first
she denounced the charges as false. she
said she was being prosecuted by enemies
in England, and that she would seek vim
dication in the courts.
CONFESSED TO wRONGDOING.
FINALLY, however she broke down, and
confessed-that Is, she confessed TO some
of the charges. Then she acknowledged,
after much weeping on her part, that she
had been guilty OF other things too shock
ing for public print. She appeared to be
real penitent, and begged us to help her.
saying that her afiiiction was more the re-
suit of an unbalanced mind than any mat
ter of voluntary choice.
IT then said to her: Miss Marsden, your
audacity astounds me. Our platform IA
the last place In the world you should
wish to contaminate with your presence.
"My remarks" continued Mrs. Grannis
appeared to nettle Miss Marsden con-
siderably. Her penitence seemed to
vanish In an instant. She became defiant
and dared us to expose her. left Chicago
soon after that. Miss Marsden remained
and, I believe, addressed several women's
meetings after that"
Mrs. Grannis said she deplored the
publicity the affair had attained. She
would not discuss the subject OF Miss
Marsden's alleged misconduct.
