refusal to allow the use of Neckar I-land
as a landing station for the British Pacific
cable, the Post says: "The L elish policy

Now we have to humble ourselves to the

they committed great blunder, in max
ing them public 1t is largely due 10 the
unusual course of the colonies that we are
placed in this unfortunate position. At the

Lord Rosv berry played. BY not opening
negotiations uutii the question was debated
at Ottawa the PREMIER shove bis band
Maybe the Uuited Stat, of whom Hawa j
appears to be vassal, would grant per

Now in Trouble.

GREENFIELD, Mass, Oct. "a Frank E.
Carey, aged 60, was arrested, today charged
with using the mails for fraudulent pur-
poses. Months ago Carey inserted an ad-
vertisement in various papers: FLORENCE
Whipple, box 5l3, Greenfield, Mass.
Young lady of good social standing
wishes to hear from gentlemen of
all ages. No objections to widowers.
No trifers need apply" This brought nu-
merous answers, which were followed in
time by money orders and registered let
tiers. These Carey secured by bringing or
ders signed by the mythical Florence for
the letters and money. Carey was indicted
He will be tried before the United States
court.
After receiving an answer to the adver-
tisement, Carey sent gushing reply and
after more correspondence when the admrer
of "Florence" desired an interview, he
would say she would come where the victim
resided if money was sent for railroad
fares and expenses. Carey obtained con-
siderable cash. how much cannot be learned
because the victims will not talk. A
Florence Whipple living here has been
much annoyed by the advertisements.

OvERWORK KILLS.
How Few Persons Stop to Think
of 1t.
And How Few Who Are Not Over
working in Some Way.
Does This Mean You, Reader? Are You Not
Doing More Than You Ought!

Oh, the millions of tired out, hard work
ing men and women! Our stores, shops,
factories and homes, all have them. They
are weakening their systems, running then
nerves, and laying foundation for early
decay and death. That nervous, weak and
tired feeling at night is q warning OF what
is coming.
If you feel this way, look out! You will
break down just as surely as you don't do
something to &c. strong. Read the terrible
experience of D. D. Buckley. Esq, one Of
the most popular men of Moretown, VT;
"Within the last year have found my
self in a fearfully debilitated and depressed
condition from overwork. l was in such q
terrible state 1 could not sleep nights, and
was so weak and nervous that the least
exertion would completely unnerve me.

they bothered me constantly. l became
greatly discouraged and worried all the

LOOKED STRAIGHT AHEAD
Did The President When He Met The New York
Reporters.

New York, Oct. 24.-President Cleve-
land arrived in this city this morning on the
. So Stamford local on the New Haven
Road from Greenwich, Ct. He was accom-
panied by Mrs. Cleveland, Mr.. and Mrs.
Z. C. Benedict Miss Benedict and two
secret detectives.
His arrival was not expected and there
were but few people at the Grand Central
depot when the train came in.
To reporter President Cleveland said he
did not know where he would stay while
here, and had not decided how long he
would remain. He would call on several
friends, he said.
In response to a direct question as to
whether he would vote in New York he re-
piled that he did not know.
SIS it your intention to indorse Senator
Hills candidacy, Mr.. PRESIDENT" he was
asked.
The President looked straight ahead of
him, but made no reply.
81 do not wish to be interviewed" he
finally said, and taking Mrs. Cleveland's
arm, he entered a carriage and was driven
to the residence of DIR. Joseph c. Bryant,
at 81 West seth street.

MANUFACTURERS IN DOUBT
What Course to Pursue As Situation at Fall
River Grows More Dubious.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Oct. "a. The
Manufacturers Association met this after
noon and adjourned before transacting any
important business. The letter received
from Secretary Whitehead of the Weavers
Association, stating that the weavers had
appointed committee of five that was will
ing and anxious to meet and confer with
representatives of the association,
regarding the present troubles. 1t
was voted by the manufacturers,
after long and heated discussion
to appoint committee to consider the wea-
vers letter and formulate an answer and
probably present it to the meeting of the
manufacturers to by called later. 1t is not
known who constitute the committee. To-
days proceedings indicate renewed strength
on the part of the strikers, inasmuch as 'he
Linen and Cornell mill weavers left work
after the parade passed. There was wide
diversity of opinion among the manufactur-
ers at the meeting as to the best couese to
pursue and this was much aggravated by
reports of the mill meeting held during the

WORK THAT WAITS
Until Cleveland Gels Home From svzzard's
Bay and Benedict's.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24-When President
Cleveland returns TO this CITY he will mud
much business of importance awaiting ms
attention. Probably the first important
business to engage his mind will be tue rem
dering of decision in the Brazil-Argentlne
boundary dispute determining the owner
ship of the Missiones territory.
The action of the Quadruple Alliance
NAV furnish some food for reflection,
although this government has declined to
become participant in the Chlno-Japan
war. But the fact that China has deter
mined in advance TO select Secretary OF
State Gresham as her arbitrator IN the
event of arbitration, will of necessity max
the United States prominent in such set
Element of the Oriental dispute. He will
also have the report of the national strike
commission, which is now being prepared,
to consider and act upon.
Then there is the awarding of an lndem-
nifty to be paid by the United States OF
Columbia to Italy for the murder of citl-
zen in thst country, which matter was left
to the President to be disposed of. The
Nicaraguan matter will take considerable
careful thought, as several delicate diplo-
matte questions are involved.
The question of reciprocity has, by the
withdrawal of the special trade favors *
Tended by Cuba and Brazil. been brought
into prominence and its settlement may
cause much serious thought.
The selection of successor to Ambassa-
dor Bayard must be regarded as possible
contingency, as it is said that in the event
of Democratic Legislature being elected
he will be chosen to succeed Higgins IN the
Senate. A large number of Presidential
postmasterships have recently become va
can't by the expiration of commissions and
must be filed. OF course, these and other
appointments will not be announced until
after November G, when the danger of max
ing campaign enemies will have been safely
passed.
Last, but not least, is the suit to be
brought on behalf of ex Queen Lilliuoka-
lani asking for couple of million dollars
from the United States government be-
cause of the alleged part taken in procuring
her deposition by its representatives.
The estimates of appropriations for the
next fiscal year have been completed, and
the President can occupy any of his spare
time in beginning the preparation OF his
annual message to Congress, which must
be ready within the coming Elk weeks. 1t
is easy to appreciate how, on bis return, the
President will find awaiting his attention
enough work to put his recuperated powers
into active play.

BOND INVESTMENTS
That arc Managed Like Lotteries Excluded
from the Mails.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-The postmaster
general is determined to prevent the CORE
spondence of bond investment companies
from being carried through the mails and
will order criminal proceedings instituted in
every case brought to his attention.
A postcffice department official, speaking
of the matter, said today 'For long time
the department has been taking active steps
to bring the promoters of these enterprises
to Justice and among them are some very
prominent men in politics"
These companies are conducted mate
rally the same as lotteries and are at pres
emit operating in the South. Within the
past few days the companies of this charac-
ter in New Orleans, Jackson, Miss, Nash
vile, Atlanta and Cincinnati have been for
hidden the use of the mails.
The companies give each member certi-
fcste with number on it for which they
charge an initiation fee of about So. Every
menlb, r also has to pay from 81 to 81 90 in
monthly dues, an when a certain amount
of money gets in their treasures, the COM
panies distribute it to the members holding
the proper numbers.
The result of this is that only one men,
Der in nearly every hundred gets anything
and the remaining members, of course, lose
their money. The companies cannot lose
anything under any circumstances as they
get the initiation fees and deduct about %
per cent. of the monthly dues.
The company whose officers were re-
Gently convicted in Chicago took in within
two years $3.50, 900.
Within the last IL months between $50
and 800 investment companies have oper-
ated here, but the rigorous action of the
postoffice department is tending very largely
to diminish the number. They started in
New England and then operated in the
West, from where they have been driven to
the South. Convictions have been OBJ
tanned thus far in every case in which pro-
ceedipgs have been instituted.

A DENIAL
That Hat Admits The Horrible cruelties In
Hic.ed on Russian convicts.

LONDON, Oct. 24.-Early in the year
the Standard printed story about horrors
of life in the Russian convict settlements OF
the island of Saghslien. Murder. mutila-
ton, starvation and cannibalism were
among the desperate features of the settle
ments as described by the correspondent.
Az unbroken procession of conveys with
a.utilated corpses, he said, passed from
Onor to Rykovskays. The most vicious
convict v no won the favor of the command
ant was represented to be the author of the
worst atrocities. His name was given as
Rhakoff.
An open letter from Rykovskaha was
published today over the signature Of De
Windt, denying most of this story. Careful
research, says the writer, showed only one
case of cannibalism on record in Saghalien
settlements. Three convicts escaped TO the
forest and two ate the other. One of the
cannibals was found to be insane. The
other was logged and eventually died of
blood poisoning. The description of the
endless conveys with corpses was described
as utterly unfounded. Mutilations were
said to have been self-icficted, the invaria-
Bile purpose being to escape work. RhakofF
or more properly Khanoff had never been
inspector or the commaniant's fayorite and
never killed anybody. He was guilty of
diabolical cruelty to comrades and was
thrown into prison, where he now awaits

A SHREwD SCHEME
To Deifaud Uncle Sam Played by Postmis-
ireSs.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Oct. 24.-Mrs.
Addie b. Holland, postmistress at North
Grand Rapids, and her son, F. Marion Hol-
land, were arrested last evening for rob
bling the North Grand Rapids postoftice aud
held in $4,000 bail for examination. The
scheme was a clever one, and was worked
so successfully that $1,000 has been embez-
zled by the parties under arrest The
method of operation was for the son to
make out money orders, signed by his
mother, drawn on various postoffices OF
western Michigan, payable to John Sutton,
a fictitious party. After the letter of ad-
vice had bent, The son would visit the office
on which the order was drawn and get the
money. Grand Haven was frequently
tapped and the books show he got $1,000.
The other places which have suffered BY
the scheme were Sparta, Rockford, Coop
ersville and Ionia.
After the arrest the son made full con-
fession, detsiling the whole scheme. His
mother still denies any knowledge of the
embs zz!ement. The arrest of the parties
is sequel of the robbery of the office re-
ported to the government authorities Sept.
26, when the postmistress gave out that the
North Grand Rapids office had been robbed
of Sl20O Mrs. Holland was appointed
postmistress six years ago.
