ECLECTIC SHORTHAND.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: / have lust received a clipping sent me by
a friend from The Tribune. dated October l6. hav-
ing reference to the art OF shorthand writing. IN
which occurs the following statement: In the
tonal institutions Of the United States are also
taught j. George Cross's eclectic shorthand. an orr
topographic not a phonograp hic system-Takigraphy.
the Scovle. the Galesberger. Pernin-Duploye. and
two or three less-known systems. which have their
advantages but did not succeed in receiving
a general recognition In this country" Had your
reviewer taken the pains 10 look the matter up ne
would have found that eclectic shorthand, although
not one-f fourth old as Pltmanic shorthand, Is
taught in more schools in the United States than
Isaac Pitman's and stands next to Munson. First
is Ben Pitman. second Graham. third Munson, and
fourth eclectic shorthand. As to its being an or

stated It has a character for each consonant sound

phonetic AS any other system used. II Is true that

CHARGES DISMISSED
Mrs. Waldrum and Her Attorney Did
Not Commit Contempt.

Not Commit Contempt.
Judge Johnson yesterday heard the
testimony in the matter of the charge of
contempt of court made against Mrs.
Elizabeth WaIdrum and her attorney,
Grove l.. Johnson, by B. o. Shocking,
receiver in the case of Horst Bros. against
Mrs. Waldrum.
The charge was that the defendant act
ing on the advice of her attorney, had
obstructed the receiver in the discharge
of his duty. by repeatedly opening gate
leading TO the premises involved in the
suit after it had been locked by him.
The testimony showed that Mrs. Wall
drum, a lady upward of so years of age,
had been locked in, while occupying her
house, and could not reach the public
road without removing the fastenings on
the gate. Also, that persons employed
by the receiver to look after the premises
had acted in an overbearing manner to-
ward the occupants.
The matter was gone into very freely
by the court in its inquiry, with the re-
suit that the charges against Mrs. Wal
drum and her counsel were dismissed.
