EX-COnsuI Waller.

The severe criticism which is being
visited on the administration for its mild
hammered course in regard to the case of
John L. Waller, eX-United States consul
to Madagascar, makes the facts in regard
to him interesting. He was born a slave
in Missouri in 1870. In 1852, when the
Union army approached and his master
fled, he attached himself to the Union
commanders headquarters. After the
war he settled in Lawrence, Kansas, ac-
quired some education, removed to Topeka.
and became influential among the people
of his race. He was active in politics.
and was Republican presidential elector
in 1888. Early in his administration
President Harrison appointed him consul
to Madagascar. He remained on that
island after the expiration of his term, the
Hova government having granted him
valuable concessions for carrying on the
rubber trade. This brought him into con-
tiict with the French authorities, who
claimed that his concessions were void on
the ground that the French government
had already established certain protectoral
rights over the island. Last March these
difficulties eliminated in Waller's arrest on
the charge of having conspired with the
Hova government against the French He
was tried by court-martial and sentenced
to twenty years Imprisonment. Soon after
this he was taken to Marseilles where he
now lies in prison.
Friends of Waller in this country, in
Guiding Gov. Morrill, of Kansas, interested
themselves in his behalf, and finally the
United States Minister to France was in
structed to press Waller's case and insist
on being furnished with full copy of the
evidence on which Waller was condemned.
For answer Mr.. Eustis got simply copy
of the charges, and now a second demand
for the evidence has been made. There
are good reasons for doubling whether
Waller acted with criminal or unlawful in
tent while in Madagascar. From a Re
publican standpoint it seems pretty certain
that if Benjamin Harrison were president
or James G. Blame secretary of state the
course of the French government in the
matter would have been a good deal more
prompt and satisfactory than it has been.

Several Hundred Former students of
Powers Institute in Reunion.

Several hundred former students of Pow
ers Institute attended the sixth triennial
gathering at Bernardston, Wednesday,
coming from all over the country. The old
academy and dormitory in Cushman Hall
were visited, and found to be little changed.
An informal reception was held in the
town hall in the evening. The exercises
in the afternoon were held in Sylvan grove.
K. 7. Williams presided. He gave a cor
dial welcome and said the attendance was
the largest of any reunion.
Mrs. II. r. Crowell made an announce
ment in relation to the catalogue she is
preparing for all students since the forma-
ton of the academy, in 1857. Out of a total
of 5000 known students she had the names
and addresses of 2S00. The catalogue will
be published during the winter, and will
contain sketches and portraits of former
principals.
Other speakers were Col. Geo. W. DAY.

AmerIcnn AbsenteeIsm.

Matthew Marshall, who writes the finan-
cial articles for the New York Sun, esti-
mates that "American absenteesm" in
wolves the expenditure of at least 500 600.
600 annually by citizens of the United
States travelling in Europe. His estimate
is based on the fact that ocean steamship
companies report from 10000 to 100, 900
first class passengers carried out by them
from this side of the Atlantic every year
besides many thousand in the steerage.
How much this trip costs each of these
American travellers is purely matter of
conjecture. Some doubtless get along with
an expenditure of 500. Others spend
S5000 A few spend $4,000 probably
One thousand dollars each is doubtless a
fair average, which would make the total
a round O00OO,OOO, while permanent
residents abroad spend at least another
- 100000. This contributes appreciably
to swell the balance of trade against u.s.
and the money to pay these foreign drafts
has to be provided, if not by shipment of
other products, then by gold.
Mr.. Marshall sympathizes with those
"staid, old-tashoned folk" who think this
money would better be kept at home, but
does not agree with them in opinion, be-
cause he holds that there is abundant
compensation for our loss in the instruc-
tion gained by European travel, in the i'm
provement of taste effected by the study of
the treasures of art which have been &C
cumulating for centuries in European cap
itals, and in the hints obtained, even in
the hotels, in regard to cooking and the
management of household affairs. The
traveller abroad returns, too, with more
luxurious ideas than he went, and with
stronger liking for elegance and beauty.
This helps the tradesmen and artisans who
supply his wants by opening to them a
wider field Of activity"
There would be less to be said against
these American absentees if they showed
the same desire to see the wonders of their
own country that they do to see the won
ders and antiquities of Europe

The financial affairs of Ainsworth r.
Spotford, the aged librarian of Congress
and chief of the copyright bureau, are in
an inextricable tangle, his shortage to the
government being at least $50, 900.
The Ohio Democratic state convention
at Springfield Wednesday nominated ex-
Gov. Campbell for governor by acclama-
tion, in spite of his repeated refusals of the
honor. A free silver plank was rejected
by vote of 525 TO 270. The convention
is regarded as a great victory for Senator
Brice, whose wishes were carried out and
who received personal endorsement in
the resolutions.
A despatch from Spokane, Washington.
says that forest fires are spreading with
frightful rapidlty in the north part of the
state. Miles upon miles of forest are be-
ing reduced to charred and blackened
stumps and ashes. One arm of the fire
has travelled southwark to within II miles
of Spokane, and ON Monday night the
smoke was so dense there as to almost OBJ
scure vision.
Gen. Salcedo, who has just returned to
Spain from Cuba, evidently thinks that the
home government has big job on hand
lie thinks, however, that by employing a
large enough force of troops to garrison
the provinces and by strengthening the
navy patrOlling the seas surrounding the
island the insurrection may be suppressed
in 1896. The rebels could scarcely ask for
better report to the world of their stand
ing and condition.

a United States Minister out

A United States Minister out Of "A Job.
The Office of United States minister to
Mexico has been declared vacant under
novel circumstances. Matt w. Ransom,
then serving his term as United States SEN
ator from North Carolina, was appointed to
the Mexican mission by President Cleve-
land on the 23d day of last February, and
his nomination was promptly confirmed.
but he continued to serve as senator until
March 1, when his term expired. Soon
after that he went to Mexico.
so far his case presented nothing un-
usual. But it happens that the constitu-
ton of the United States provides that ''no
senator or representative shall, during the
time for which he was elected, be appoint
ed to any civil office under the authority of
the United States which shall have been ere
ated orthe emoluments whereof shall have
been increased during such time" The ap-
plication of this provision lies in the fact that
while Mr.. Ransom was a member of the
Senate the diplomatic and consular appro-
priation bill was passed which contained
Mexico from a mission of the second class
to a mission of the first class, and increas-
ing the salary of the office from SIP, 800 to
$1,000 year
The question was raised soon after Mr.
Ransom's appointment to the Mexican
mission whether his incumbency of the
office was legal, but no action was taken
until the auditor of the treasury came re-
Gently to pass on Mr.. Ransom's accounts,
when he concluded that he could not le-
gally approve the payment of Mr.. Ran
som's salary and referred the question to
the solicitor-general for decision. That
official and the acting attorney-general both
hold, in decision rendered last Friday,
that Mr.. Ransom's incumbency is contrary
to the Federal constitution. Mr. Ransom
has been at home for the last three months
on account of i'll health. There appears to
be nothing in the law to prevent the Presi-
dent from reappointing him.

The Morgan Belmont syndicate is still
protecting the gold reserve. Withdrawals
for export Wednesday reduced the reserve
to below the Sl00,000,O00 mark, but at

Tennessee is preparing to celebrate next
year the hundredth anniversary of her ad-
mission to the Union. She is an older
state than Ohio, following only Vermont
and Kentucky among the states brought
in since the adoption of the constitution.
She was formed out of territory ceded to
the United States by North Carolina in
1889. Her people applied for admission
to the Union early in 1896 and the act ad-
mitting her was approved June 1 of that
year.
The trouble with the Bannock Indians
recalls the fact that the Indian population
of the United States in 1890 was set down
at PAS, ,253, not including the native inhab-
itants of Alaska, who numbered 32,O52.
The Indians living on the reservations and
receiving assistance from the government
numbered l34, All. 1t is believed by those
who have made a special study of Indian
archaeology that the number of Indians
within the present territory of the United
States, at the time of the discovery of
America, was little, if any, greater u an
the number now existing, a statement
which will strike many with surprise.

The Mora claim, of which so much is
now said in the newspapers, dates back %
years when the Cuban rebellion which be
gan in lSGS, was in progress. Antonio
MaXimo Mora, who had become resident
and citizen Of the United States. owned
extensive sugar estates in Cuba. He was
unJustly accused by the Spaniards of being
implicated in the rebellion. Sentence of
death was passed upon him, though he
was not then in the island, and his prop
erty was confscated. Our government
protested and the Spanish government ac-
knowledged that it had been in error and
passed decree for the restoration of the
Mora estates, but this decree was not car
ried out. The estates went to ruin. but
the Spanish treasury reaped rich harvest
from them, which amounted in 1877 to
more than S2,000,000. Nine years ago
Spain offered to settle the whole matter
by paying S1,5O0,O coo, and this offer was
accepted by our government, but the money
has never been paid. The last Congress
adopted resolution that the President in
sist on the payment of the claim with ac-
crued interest. a formal demand for this
payment was made last June, but the
Spanish Cortes, though then in session,
adjourned without taking action on it.
The Cabinet has since decided to pay the
claim, but, it is understood, without the in
terest
