he robbed her of her jcwelry and re-

The tragedy of Martha Fuller, tho

q happy, sunny temperament and was
not known to have any affair of the
heart. She was supposed to be us good
as she was pretty, and no reason could
be assigned for her removal" or sui

Working i'll the same Office with Miss
Fuller was rather good looking fellow
named Joseph f. Mageo. He was tho
managing clerk. Magee and Miss Full
Ter were on the most cordial terms Of
intimacy, but rs far as is known
were not lovers Their affection was
simply platonic. Magce was alone in
the Office with Miss Fuller late in the
afternoon She was either murdered or
committed suicide. To those who enter
ed the office Immediately after hearing
the report of the pistol Magee said the
girl had committed suicide by putting
bullet through her brain. Tho pistol
found beside her belonged to Magee.
There were no powder marks OH the
dead girls temple to indicate the close
proximity of the pistols muzzlo to her
head when the fatal shot had been fred.
The police believed that the girl had
been shot by some person few feet dis
tant. They were strengthened in this
belief by the fact that the lcadcn mes

she contemplated self destruction she
would have beyond doubt used the

of murder. He stoutly asserted his in
nocence. His reputation was excellent,
and his friends, all of tho best class of
people, stood by him. The grand Jury
refused to indict him for murder, and
he walked forth from the Tombs few

We are surprised by Bishop PoTrER's re-
mark at the CHILDs memorial meeting that
some people regard New York and Philadel-
phia as rival cities. We magnify Philadelphia.
1t is. as we have often been reminded. a e city
OF homes" Its population is American. In
spirit as in nativity. 1t Is rich. 1t is healthy.
FAR healthier than Chicago. for example. II
boasts OF it's superior virtue. far superior to
that OF Chicago. 1t is a busy place. or perhaps
we had better say that its business streets. in
GLIDING Chestnut street. are busy during busl-
ness hours. while its residence quarters are
always quiet. Independence Hall Is an hon
ored relic OF Revolutionary times The pacific
influence OF Quakerism 10 still felt In the eity.
We commend the city Of Philadelphia, aud
must hope that It may yet illustrate its hon
ore,i name. which signifies brotherly love.
Philadelphia is not in any way whatever q
rival OF New York. the city OF power and action
and energy and ardor and vigilance and tnde-
fatigability and effervescence aud aspiration
and Gayety and magnitude and domination.
Philadelphia would never think OF scrambling
to become rival OF New York: but New York
will always he happyt to be regarded as friend
OF the city that sits placidly 1T the mouth Of
the Schuylkill River.

Consulting Senator morgan Now.

WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE terrible blum
ders OF the Administration regarding Hawaii
have caused Mr.. Cleveland and Judge Grssh-
am to take counsel before acting on new for
eign questions. As an illustration OF this, It
can be said that they have recently consulted
Senator Morgan. the Chairman OF the Senate
Committee on Foreign Affairs. concerning q
number OF interesting questions that have
arisen OF late. Heretofore such q thing has
never been thought OF By Cleveland, who has
uniformly acted as though no such thing as q
Senate committee or committee OF any kind
existed. He has not at all times even ght the
opinion OF Judge Gresham. who has generally
acted on the Hawaiian question as Mr.. Clevs-
blunders OF the Administration. The Policy
OF Infamy was solely Grover Cleveland's, and
as such 1t has gone into history as the most
un-Amsrican and disgrAeeful episode In our
history. Friends OF Judge Gresham say he
fully understands how much better 1t would
have been for himself had he torn his commits

That the negro race will continue TO hold

quests OF the white race. Is the purport Of an

maintains that nature has marked of tropical

which are vigorous and warlike. and can neither
be destroyed nor conquered. Europeans may
seize tho seaboard or occupy the contigu-
Gus healthy regions; but they cannot abide
In the heart Of the dark continent. which IL for
the negroes. and Is not likely ever to be Euro
psanized. Tho people OF other type than tn at
OF the negro who effected an entry there ages
ago, and underwent the scarcely percsptible
process OF naturalization. have either boon
absorbed into the primitive elements Of the
population or suffered total extinction. The
argument on this subject In the Ninetee,,th
Century seems to be well supported.
1t is pleasing to know that vast region OF
tho earth has been reserved for our black
brethren. At the same time II is Interesting
to observe that the negro mag flourish else
where than In Africa He nourishes In the
United States. more especially in our Southern
StateA He iourishes in Brazil and other
countries Of South America. and can GET along
even in Central America and the West Indies.

would be wholly worthless rs a basis for
delimlting this southern part OF the boun-
Diary. This clause provides that when the
SUBMITS Of the mountain range are more
than ten marine leagues from the ocean.
the boundary shall be formed by line
parallel TO the windings Of the coast and
which shall never exceed the distance OF
ten marine leagues therefrom."
The mountain range being imaginary. the
purpose Ia to fix the boundary at ten marine
leagues or nearly thirty-hve miles from the
coast: and here the British have tried TO in-
troduce another perplexlty.
For the purposes OF this dispute they de-
fine 4 coast line as the outer edge Of the
islands along the mainland. II this original
idea were conceded to be correct. almost
the entire coast OF the mainland from Port
land Channel TO point considerably north
OF Sltka would be included in British Amer
lea. Alaska would lose the whole OF it's
panhandle except narrow chain Of islands.
OF course the British position is not tena-
Bile. There can be no doubt that all Impair
tial geographers and any board OF arbltra-
ton would endorse the correctness OF our
claim that the word coast. In the conven-
ton. refers to the shores OF the mainland;
and so the surveyors are going ahead with
the work OF fixing certain points on the
mainland that are just ten marine leagues
distant from the winding shore line.
II this work is ever infinitely carried out
1t will be by a later generation. The shore
line is part OF the most irregular and in
tricate section OF the North American coast.
The country Is almost impenetrable except
along the few water courses. IL would cost
millions OF dollars to make a detailed sur
vey. marking every mile or two OF the
boundary by monuments. The best that
can now DO done and all that needs to be
done. is to ascertain and mark the points at
which the ten marine leagues line crosses
the water courses that can be assembled
from the sea. This is the work on
which the surveyors will be engaged dur
Ing the coming season. Whatever ques-
tons may still DO in dispute. whatever
diplomatic controversies may yet arise. the
work OF defining the boundary will at least
have made considerable progress when
number OF positions inland are exactly de-
termined to be ten marine leagues distant
from the sea.
The northern part OF the boundary. ex-
tending from the neighborhood Of Mount
st. Elias. along the 141st meridian west from
Greenwich. to the Arctic Ocean. has already
been astronomically fixed at n sufficient
number OF points to serve all present pur-
poses. and 1t may not be necessary to de-
fine 1t In greater detail.

! Great Britain formally rellnquished her all
legged protectorate, based on the ridiculous
cocked-hat and burlesque commission pre-
scented to Oldham in CHAnLEss time.

been that Great Britain has no basis for her

palpable infringement Of her treaties with

cising under pretence Of this protectorate
is in derogation Of the sovereign rights OF

The question Of importance is whether

direct dominion over the Mosquito Coast
