it for the month of $6,601 ,677.
The feature of the statement is the

from internal revenue sources during Dc
tober, 1894, were $6,493,43S, which
shows a gain for the month just closed

gain in customs receipts was $1,S1O,937.
The pension payments last mouth

ITS TRACES LINGER LONG
why the Grip Is So Much More
Feared Than Many other Diseases
That Aztec Us.

If the grip would run its purse like
another disease. and then go away, leav-
Ing no trace behind, it would still be
dangerous enough to Justify all the pre-
cautions against it. But the evil that
grip does. lives after it. People who
can't digest their food and complain of
cold hands n feet. or of shattered
nerves, or are tormented by a persistent
cough, say, II have never been well since
1 had the grip"
The reason is simple enough. There
has been an immense drain of vital force
during the battle with the disease, and
this loss has never been made good. Thus
the weakened body, like a town without
fortifcations. is open to the enemy. A
second attack of grip is, for this rea-
son. more serious thar the first. How
shall the harmful consequence of the
a second siege be prevented? Here Is
the answer

COSTLY METAL Files.
Voorhees, Investigation Com
mittee Makes Startling
Disclosures.
Special to the Jersey CITY Neus.

TRENTON, March Is, 1S95.-The Voor-
hees Investigating Committee made more
startling disclosures yesterday afternoon
in a new direction. 1t took up the recent
furnishing of the various Offices of the
Capitol with steel boxes for the preser-
walton of aluable documents. The reye-
lations were more sensational than any
that have yet been made, and showed
where exorbiuant bills were paid even
after the State officers to whom the
goods were furnished had refused to
certify to the prices.
The crowds in the Senate chamber were
even greater than those OF the morn
ing. and at the close of the session they
gathered in little groups to discuss the
latest developments. 5
President Mckee. of the New Jersey
School and Church Furniture Company,
was the first witness. He was called
as an expert in furniture to show what
were fair prices for the furniture sup
piled by Mullins & Co. He went over
each item in the bill and fixed the cost
price at all the way from SO TO 20 per
cent. less than the price charged the
State. Desks for which $50. $50 and 500
were paid to Mullins by the State. the
witness said, could be purchased at re-
tail for s35 and $40. The desk of the
President of the Senate in the Senate
chamber. for which $500 had been
charged, should have been bought for
s425.
CHARGED MORE THAN SUPPLIED.
Mr.. Mckee further said that he found
in the committee room six desks. where
as the State had paid for twelve.
Mr.. DAILY undertook to c-ross-examine
the witness.
Haven't you sold goods to- the State?"
Yes. SIR" replied the witness; st put
in the lockers in this Senate chamber"
"How much did you get for them?"
.About $500 a piece. and there were
twenty of them"
You made a profit, I suppose?"
II was satisfied with the profit"
mo doubtr' remarked Mr.. Daily, in
a manner which caused the witness to
exclaim that he would like. to make a
comparison between his prs.es and those
of the men who put the lockers in the
Assembly chamber.
Mr.. Skirm said that no one had any
doubt about the fairness of the witness
conduct
"How do you know that?' said Mr..
DAILY; speak for yourself"
Mr.. Corbin then called General Stryker,
Inc while he was taking the witness
chair Mr.. Corbin called attention to an
the placing of metallic files in the vaults
of the various State offices. He read

special to the Jersey City Ne,es.

TRENTON, March IS. 1Ss5.-Great
pressure is being brought to bear to have
the Voorhees, investigation called off.
Strange as it may seem to those who
think that the Republicans can do no
wrong, much of this pressure comes from
some Republicans leaders who have
been growing more and more uneasy as
the inquiry proceeds. Chairman Voor-
hees, whose friends think that the inves-
t.gation will give him a lead in the
g-ubernatorial race which nothing can
lessen, refuses to listen to the frantic
appeals that are being made to him,
and the investigation will go on, no
matter whom it hits
The chief cause of anxiety is Camden
County. If the committee goes to Hud-
son and Middlesex. it will have to go
into the bailiwick of Sewell and Thomp-
son; and if it exercises the same energy
there as it has in State House matters,
JerseyInen will produce physicians GER
tificates that they need a milder climate.
