C1ryetantl n the Pillory,


The indictment which Senator HOar
of assachusetss uttered against the
usurper and filituster iu the. White
House was composed Of undeniablo
facts and unanswerable arguments.
Senator Hoar proved by the clearest
evidence that the appointment OF
Blount as Commissioner in Hawaii
with authority 'paramount to that OF
the Minister OF the United States in
that country. and with power TO direct
the forces OF the United States at Hon.
olulu, was usni patton on the part OF
the President, entirely without consti-
tutional sanction. anu dangerous erle
croachment upon the authority OF the
Senate. "If We submit declared Mr..
Hoar, ito this astounding and unheard
Of pre.ension, the authority O the Sem
ate itself over a large part OF its con-
stitutiofial domain is abandoned and
gone One CT the trainers Of the Con-
stitution, who had more to do than
any other man with the concep-
tion and creation Of the Senate,
declared soon after the Constitution
was adopted that he esteemed the pro-
vision made for appointments to Office
to be Il matter of great Importance, on
which the liberties and safety Of the
people depended nearly as much as on
legislation. Ii that was vested In the
Pre- sident alone he might render him
self despotic. !.
AS Senator Hoar pointed out, II
Cleyeland's S course in the appointment
of Paramount Blount is not to be con-
demned and repudiated by that body
upon whose constitutional powers he
trespassed, then the President could
establish like diplomatic agency in
every country on the globe.

One Of the most hotrifyinx discoveries
WAS made whom A. Z. Brown. sen-in-

the family, lying dead on the floor in
her room, and Mrs. Read ana her 5.
year-old son in bed, the boy dying and
the mother unconscious. The terrible
tragedy is shrorded in mystery.
Many theories are current as to the
cause, one being asphyxiation, another
accidental poisoning, and another foul
play. The fact that the two gas
stoves In the house were burning at
full force practically explodes the
theory of asphyxiation and the fact
that no bruises were found ON either
OF the persons renders the murder
theory almost incredible, leaving acc
dental poisoning as the most probable
cause. None of the family were seen
Tor several days, leaving no doubt

autopsy was held, but nothing definite
can be ascertained until an analysis
OF the stCmachs can be completed.

SOUTHERN SUMMARY,

GALVESTON, Texas, special: At the
annual meeting of the cotton exchange
the committee on the supervision and
inspection OF cotton on the wharves re-
ported that the local representatives of
the marine underwriters would recon-
mend to their companies the addition
of / per cent. premium on all cotton
forwarded by vessels refusing to load
under the supervision of exchange in
spectors. The committee also reported
that one OF the main causes of the nu-
merous cotton fires was the inadequate
way in which cotton bales are now be-
ing covered with the poorest and cheap
est bagging obtainable in the market.
The committee recommends the pass
age of a law providing that cotton must
be completely covered with bayeinp
weighing not less than two pounds per
yard.

PHILADELPHIA special: General
Master Workman Sullivan of the
Knights Of Labor, before leaving foi.
his home, issued an address TO ,he
knights OF this country appealing TO
them to protest against the proposed
bond issue. He quotes from the plat
form of the knights as follows:
That intefest-bearing bends, bills
OF credit, or notes shall never be issued
by the Government; but when the need
arises, the emergency shall DO met by
the issue OF legal tender. non-interest.
bearing money"
He asks that every local assembly in
the country discuss this plank at the
first regular meeting in January. He
says he calls for this new agitation be-
cause he has letters from the South
and West saying that the issue Of
bonds. as asked for by Carlisle, is con-
sidered sufficient provocation to justify
a call to arms. He deprecates such n
course, and suggests that on the first
attempt OF Congress to grant the
authority asked. the members of the
order from Maine to Califor ia hold
indignation meetings and send protests
to their members in Congress. He
says the issue of bonds would be an
outrage and should brand with eternal
infamy every name connected with the
disreputable transaction.

"a Temporary Deficit.-

Confronted as they are with the GER
tainty that their boa ted revenue tar
itf will reduce the revenues OF the gov
ernment, the free traders are trying to
wriggle out of their dilemma by de-
clafing that the deficit will only con-
time until foreigners can take advan-
tage of the Wilson bill to flood the
American market with their goods.
The Mugwump Boston Herald calls 1t
"the temporary deficit before imports
increase under revenue duties. This
is a confession that every American
workingman win do well to ponder.
1t means that the advocates of the Will

nous increase in the imports Of foreign
products under its operation. Every

goods that comes in under the free
