WASHINGTON, Aug. y,
"IIon +. e. Catchings,
"MY DEAR SIR:-Since the con-
versation 1 had with you and Mr.
Clark, of Alabama, few days ago,
in regard to my action upon the
tariff bill, now before me, | have
given the subject further and most
serious consideration. The result is
am more settled than ever in the
determination to allow the bill to
become law without my signature.
"When the Information OF legis
lation which it was hoped would EN-
body Democratic ideas to tariff re-
form was lately entered upon by
Congress, nothing was further from
my anticipation than result which
| could not promptly and enthusi-
astically endorse.
'.It is, therefore, with feeling OF
the utmost disappointment that l
submit to denial of this privilege.
Yours very truly,

DriY en- Mad by >pirItuaIIsm.

LockpOrt, n. Y, March 4.-Insanity' s
blight has fallen sim mdltaneously on three
handsome sisters, daughters of Joseph
Schenck, wealthy farmer of Sanborn,
and the little village is intensely excited
over the triple misfortune.
Farmer Schenck lived happily with his
trio of daughters, Mary, Maria and
Ellen, who, being highly accomplished,
had many admirers. OF late the young
women had been attending spiritualist
seances, and a change was noticed in
them. Nothing serious was thought of
the matter until Saturday evening, when
people were startled by seeing three wo-
men rushing through the streets clad
only in night gowns.
Investigation showed that the Schenck
girls had left their rooms, and were flee
ing, no one knew where. The neigh
bors went in chase, and found the three
sisters raving maniacs. They were ia
ken back home, where they were put in
straight jackets. They will be taken to
the Buffalo Insane Asylum. The father
is nearly Frustrated by the terrible event.

Worse Than Smallpox.

WMLIAMsPoRT, March Ga lad OF
this town is now suffering from being
vaccinated AZ times, and his case Is re-
garded as about as serious as smallpox
woald be- His name is Werts and his
home is on Mulberry street. Recently
the school Board ordered all the school
children vaccinated, and Werts' little
sister was one of the victims. The virus
in her arm caused an itching sensation,
and on the sly she used her hair brush to
alleviate it. At the same time she ac-
commodated her brother, loaning him
her brush, which he used in lieu of a
regular flesh brush to rub his back.
The virus on the brush was effectually
introduced in the lads system, and his
parents, becoming frightened, sent for a
doctor. He came, shook his head
doubtfully and sent for Health Officer
Richter and two other physicians. 1t
looked like smallpox, but the little sister
divulged her secret, and the whole mat
ter was explained. There are on young
Werts' back AZ separate places where
the vaccination is getting in its work.

Crank at the White House.

WAsHINGToN, March 5.-The period
ical crank turned up at the White House
again this morning, and, taking advan-
tage of the Presidents absence, sought
to take charge.
At 9 O'Clock, an hour before the
White House is opened to the public, a
wildeyed, commonly dressed man, about
30 years of age, appeared at the entrance
and told the waiter man that he had a
revelation from God, and had been di,
rected to come here, take charge of the
White House and turn it over to the
Jews. The Democrats had to go out
and the Republicans could not get IN,
but the third party. to which he be
longed, would predominate. The man
was not violent, but he was very posi-
tive and insisted. While he was talking
a telephone brought the police patroI
wagon to the door, and the man was ar.
rested and locked up in the Third pre-
cinct station. He gave the name OF
Abraham Julis kisler, and said he had
come from Baltimore.

The reasons, says the New York
World, for the revival of business all over
the country are apparent. In the first
place, consumption has been going on
while production has stopped. Stocks
have been permitted to run down until
now there is a demand that must be sup
piled. The revival was bound to come
In the course of nature.
The quickness OF the recovery is due to
American elasticity and vigor. 1t is due
also to returning confidence and to a
reasonable certainty concerning the fu
ture. 1t could not have come so soon
were it not for the repeal of the Sherman
act. 1t has been helped too, by the pas
sage of the Wilson bill through the
House by large majority. Manufac-
turers and merchants are thus assured of
a moderate tariff measure, and are able
to place their orders with some certainty
as to the cost of goods.
Only one thing can prevent a brisk
and profitable spring trade, and that is
undue delay in the senate.

EVIDENTLY, says the Philadelphia
Record, the game of obstruction is to be
played for all il is worth in hinderlng
the progress of the tariff bill through the
senate. The bill has been hung up in
committee as long as possible, and now
that it is likely to be reported, through
the connivance of Republican senators
the way is to be barrjcaded with the mis-
chievous Bland bill Republican organs
have not tired of boastlng that the re-
peal of the Sherman law could not have
been accomplished without their assist
ance. They have made it point of
great virtue that they helped to undo
policy of their own contriving which had
brought the country to the brink of
financial ruin. Yet, at the same time
that they are loudly and truthfully de-
Caring that the delay in tariff legisla-
ton is seriously prolonging business dis
tress, they are contriving to hurt the
credit of the country at home and
abroad; and to further prolong inaciton
by a renewal of the silver controversy
which they know to be fruitless of good
and full of evil import.
The Augean stables at their filthiest
never needed Herculean cleaning out
worse than does the United States senate.
1t is full of schemers, incapables and
political speculators who know nothing
of patriotism except as convenient
cloak with which to cover sinister de-
signs that will not bear the light
