THE TOPICAL SONG IN POLITICS.
We clip the following from the New
York Press.
To be the butt Of the concert hall and
the topical song is the last humiliation of
political disgrace. Here are three stanzls
of the new topical song sung by j. Ar.
thur Joseph:
How dear TO our hearts is our Democratic Congres
As hopeless inaetion presents IL to view;
The bill of poor Wilson, the deep tangled tariff.
And every mad pledge that their lunacy knew
This g. Cleveland Congress,
This Queen Lily Congress.
This wild free trade Congress
We all love so well.
Their moss covered pledges we no longer treasure,
For often at noon, when out hunting Job,
They've given us nothing-n0t even cob
This bank breaking Congress-
This m III closing Congress-
This starvation Congress
We all love so well.
How sweet from their eloquent lips TO receive IL,
Cursed Tariff protection no longer uphold"
We listened-and v0t ed our dinner pals empty.
The factories silent, the furnaces cold
And now far removed from our lost situations,
The tear Of regret d 9th intrusively swell
We yearn for Republican Administration
And sigh for the Congress tb at served us we'll.
This Fifty.t third Congress
This Democratic Congress,
This Sugar-cured Congress,
We wish was In -.
Ia spite OF New York city's popular
Democratic majority, every ditty like this
from the stage Is now uproariously APP
piauded BY the audience.

Early last Friday morning Daniel
Boyle, a resident of New Hope, Pa, was
found dead on the sidewalk between the
railroad station and the river bridge, in
this city. The night before he had been
attending pic mic in New Hope, and
had drank considerably. He came over
to this city during the night, and 10 CON-
pany with two or three men had cen
tinued to drink. At first It was thought
he had been foully dealt with, bat an cx-
animation by physician led TO the be-
lief that, while vomiting, some hard.
baked beans which he had eaten became
fastened in his throat and choked him to
death. The fact that when found his
face was black and his tongue protruding
seemed TO indicate this. Coroner Callan
viewed the body and did not consider IL
necessary to hold an inquest. Boyleihad
been engaged for some time in selling
fruits, &C., from wagon and was fire.

buried from St. Martins Church on Mon.

NEW YORK, November Sit will prob
ably require the official count to determine
whether the board OF aldermen will be con-
trolled by the republicans or by the demo-
Gratis. The question is mainly important
from the fact that the aldermen elected on
Tuesday will be called upon to reapportion
the city for assembly districts.
The multiplicity of ballots given TO vot-
ers in the election booths has caused much
confusion, and is delaying the official
count. In one Long Island city district, the
county clerk reports. the returns are hope
iessly mixed Up. The vote of school trus-
tees was given to the candidates for city
treasurer and the city treasurers vote was
given to the candidates Cor school trus-
tees.
Herman Drer, a candidate for school
trustee, received 9S votes for city treasurer,
Thomas Poyle, another candidate fo- school
trustee, received 53 for city treasurer, and
Felix Hughes, anoth er candidate for school
trustee, gets so votes for city treasurer. +.
w. Bleckwen1, who was defeated for the
city treasurership by Lucian Knapp. is
given 13S votes for school trustee, and
Lucian Knapp, who was elected treasurer,
is given 1O2 votes for school trustee.

DISTRICT DEMOCRATS
They Hope Mr. Cleveland Will Soon Make
Two Appointments.
One Will BE the Register of Wills and
the Other a New Recorder
of Deeds.

Despite the general destruction of demo-
cratic hopes that occurred at the polls
Tuesday, there are a few of the party in
Washington who believe that, SO far as they
are personally concerned, a balm of sooth-
ing power may be placed upon their lacer-
ated feelings before another month.
These individuals, it is hardly neces-
sary to state. are those who have designs
on the federal patronage of this District
yet remaining to be distributed by Presi-
dent Cleveland. When Mr.. Willett was ap-
pointed postmaster it was generally be-
lieved that but one more office remained
for the executive to bestow, but the in
itiated now assume that two positions will
be at the disposal of the President, the
registership of wills and the recordership of
deeds. 1t is true that Mr. e. III. j. Taylor
of Kansas holds the latter office now, but
there is a general impression among Dis
trict democrats that Mr.. Taylor will receive
from Mr.. Cleveland in a very short time an
invitation to resign. The latter is said to
have changed his opinion very extensively
of late regarding the present recorders fit
ness to fill such an important place. and is
also said to have expressed a very decided
aversion to the race fights in which Mr..
Taylor has been such a prominent par
ticipant, and during which he has seen
proper to speak of other citizens of his own
complexion in a rather coarse way, to say
the least. These things have been called
to President Clevelands attention by prom
inent negroes regardless of politics all over
the country, and coming as allies to the
assistance of the civil service commission
ers, who are eager for Mr.. Taylor's scalp
on account of his alleged conflict with civil
service principles, they are regarded as
important in influencing the Presidents S
course.
The prominent candidates for the recor-
dership in the past are polishing up their
armor at any rate, in expectancy of d
chance to o,again clash In the contest, an1
their friends are at work with energy.
Regarding the position of register of wills,
for which Mr.. Dorsey Clagett was general
ly supposed to have the best opportunity, 1T
is now said that President Cleveland has
decided to stick to his rule about not re-
appointing the old officials in the case of
this office at least. The fact that Mr..
Clagett reformed the Office during his term
as register and brought system out of con-
fusion that was allied to confusion is said
to have been brought to Mr.. Cleveland s
attention without effect. OF the others
mentioned for the place the name most fire.
quently spoken now is that of Mr.. j. Fred.
Kelly.
1t Is believed the President will shortly
make known his intentions regarding Re-
corder Taylor, and that he will Immediately
afterward settle the question of District
patronage for good and all.

The District Estimates.

The District commissioners had con-
ference with Secretary Carlisle at the
Treasury Department yesterday afternoon
in regard to the estimates for the MAIN
tenancc of the District government. They
made q strong argument against the usual
practice of the Treasury Department in a
general reduction Of the estimates as pre-
pared by the Commissioners, and made a
special plea in support Of the estimate of
100000 for the commencement of work on
the proposed municipal building. Secretary
Carlisle was much impressed with the wis
dom of their position, and promised to give
them hearing before n aking any changes
in their estimates, or, as he is said to have
expires ssed it, mo chopring will be done
without consulting the Commissioners" "
The estimates aggregate S,113,OOO, and
about 100000 more than the estimates of
last year.

the southern states. Reports received at
republican headquarters make it plain that
unless there is a change either of mini or
conditions there will be at least three con-
tests from Louisiana, one or two from Elr-
ginia, and some from North Carolina and
Tennessee, with q possibility of such con-
tests from Alabama, Kentucky and Ar
kansas. Secretary Ferris of the Louisiana
republican COMMITTEES claims in a telegram
to Chairman Babcock of the national COM
mittee that the democrats have been de-
feated in three of the congressional dis
trlcts, but expresses the conviction that
they viii be counted oct, and says that
contests will be made for the three seats
IN the House. He adds that fraud, intimi-
dation and violence can be proven. Inc
republicans in the seventh Virginia dis
trct assert that the democratic candidate
in that district is defeated by majority
of at least 500. but claim that they have
evidence that the count is being manipu-
lated so as to reverse the result, and say
their candidate, Walker will contest. 1t
is probablA that some Of these contests in
North Carolina involving Congressman will
rot be settled until they reach the House.
The Result In Wisconsin,.
Chairman Babcock is especially elated
over the report that the republicans have
carried the state senate I'm his state of Wis
ccEsin. He says this was the initial light
of the campaign and in some respects the
most important part of 1t, from repubii-
can standpoint, owing to the fact that the
republicans desire to redstrict the state
and have been unable to do so because of
the opposition of the democratic senate.
He is now assured that the republicans
have the senate, as well as the house, and
says they will certainly redistrict the state
at the next election. The senate consists
of 3, members. There are II holdovers, of
whom the democrats have IA and the repub-
leans 3. Mr.. Babcock is assured, how
ever that these odds will be overcome by
the Tuesday election.

Speaks of His Long and Valuable
Service.
F U TU r E G H A n g E S

NEW YORK, November S.-After forty
years service, Major General Oliver o.
Howard retired from active service in the
United States army today.
His retirement was made compulsory un-
der the law which provides that officers,
upon reaching the age of sixty-four must
be retired upon three-fourths pay.
1t had been the intention of the officers In
charge of Governors Island, where Gen.
Howard has been stationed for the past six
years, to make the day of his retirement
notable by martial display. The rain, how
ever, interfered with such arrangements,
and the only outdoor demonstration was
the firing of salute of fifteen guns In
he nor of the retiring general
While the salute was being fired Gen.
Howard was in his Office in the headquar-
ters building on Governors Island, with his
aid-de-camp. where he received the MEM
bers of his staff and others who called to
bid him good bye.

The Presidents Remarks I'm FayOr-
ably Acting ON Two Pardon Cases.
The President has indorsed the application
for pardon in the case of Abraham Brown
Of the District, sentenced August 2S 1894,
to six months imprisonment in Jail for car
rying concealed weapons, as follows:
sentence commuted to four months i'm
prisonment with legal deduction for good
behavior. 1 am not willing to pardon this
convict after an Imprisonment Of a little
more than two months, under sentence
for carrying weapon. but in view of his
mothers need of his help, / have decided to
commute his sentence To four months i'm
prisonment.'
He has also granted q pardon in the case
of w. II. L. Johnson, sentenced to 2 months
and "a days Imprisonment on each of
three counts of assault, disorderly assembly
and throwing missiles. The President says
of this case: Il think this prisoner was very
severely treated, and that the Imprisonment
OF more than two months, which he has
already suffered, considering the character
of his offense and the need his mother has
for his assistance, will answer the ends Of
Justice"

Amended estimates of the congressional

showed the election of democrats where
republicans were at first thought to have
been elected. for instance in the ninth Mas
sachusetts, where John F. Fitzgerald was

in the state. In others the returns showed
republican gains in districts where DEM
ocrats were expected, as in the tenth and

THE POST OFFICE BUILDING.
KAHN lHterfercs and a Small Number
of Men Are at Work.

Down to the averages again! Twice in
one week has the rain prevented a full
days work being done on the post office
building. This means sad havoc among
the averages at the end of the week. The
experience Of this week may be taken as a
good sample Of what is to be expected
throughout the winter, and it will not take
many weeks Of ordinary winter weather to
completely justify The Stars estimated
average of twenty men day. That is the
number of men who started to work at
noon today in the rain. Working half a
day, as they did, they can only be counted
as ten men on the full-day basis. These ten
men, putting In eight hours per day on six
days of the week, might possibly finish the
building by the 1st Of February, 1917, q
little over twenty-five years hence. This
would hardly be in time for the lately ap-
pointed postma ster to take his place in the
new building, as was minated by a local
paper the other morning. The experience
of today shows that the Grim Determine
tion has frightened its belt.
