they might be toward lenience For muir

only one penalty.
At the request of counsel for the defense
the pronounclng Of the sentence was de-

Of the jury has made the sentence of Har

had already announced it.
The Prisoner Was Cool.
Up to the timo that the verdict was read
John Day Smith and Shumaker counsel
for the defense, expressed the greatest CON

dict was to be seemed apparent in the an

great that a rent was made ia the crown

He Is Persistent.

Senator Stewart is not to be brushed
lightly aside; he was in the senate
thirteen years before Mr. Teller started
out on his first term; he was there be-
fore Mr.. Wolcott was out of the high
school He was in public life at a
time when to stand up for silver was
to stand almost alone.
Yet it must be said that Senator
Stewart has come to be rather a dog
matte veteran. He is down on the
banks; not many of silver's friends
are in sympathy with his radical
views He is not disposed to operate
with the other faithful advocates of
free coinage in plans for an interna-
tional congress or in measures looking
toward silver's speedy restoration, his
proposition being that, if conference
is held, the American delegation be in
structed to agree to nothing except
sixteen to one.
The views of Senator Stewart are
not shared by many of silver's friends
in the senate-men like Teller, Jones
and Wolcott oppose his suggestions

UNITED STATES ARMY NOTES

Written for the STANDARD.
Lieutenant General John NJ. Schofield
commanding the United States army. is :
son of a Baptist minister. President
Cleveland is n son of a Presbyterian min
lister. These are at least two examples OF
preachers sons who have not turned on
so very badly. 1t is hard to see how the,
could have done better had they beer
born to men of other professions than
that of the ministry.
The Cincinnati Enquirer has started a
presidential boom for Major General Mel.
son A. Miles, now commanding the mill.
tary department of the east. That paper
| says:
General Miles is man of splendid
physique and robust health. He would be
a write, manly, business-like chief execu-
tive. He would have an enormous ca
pacity for labor, and great skill in getting
good work and good results from other
people, for he has long been n commander
and ruler of men. He has high standing
socially and is closely connected with tho
family of Senator Sherman. The fact
that he hasn't been in politics MIGHT no
much TO his advantage as a ruler. If
people get to thinking about General
Miles and studying the man and his
career, we are inclined to believe that be
will develop great popular strength. In a
military way he is dashing and brilliant
figure, land one easily calculated to at
tract and charm the masses. What NAV
make him serious possibility among
presidential candidates is that the think
ing people know him to be well-rounded.

The condition of the appropriation for

Hunting Up the Reasons.

Now come the rumors respecting the
motives that prompted the Iesigna.
ton of Postmaster General Bliss ell
you can find in the going comments of
the press any reason you want.
1t may be that Mr.. Bissell was
wearied with the conduct of congress
toward the suggestions he made and
the plans he proposed. Perhaps,
within the inner. circles of cabinet
experience, things have happened that
are not to his liking. Then, again, it
may be simply that Mr.. Bissell prefers
to go back to Buffalo, have done at
once with the public service and at
tend to his law business. One story,
printed in Central New York, is to the
effect that the president and the post
master general could not agree Oh the
selection of postmaster for the city
of Utica, n. Y, and that the presi-
dent was bent on having his own way.
We doubt this, but the circulation
OF the report awakens some interest
ing memories of politics in the past.
In his early career In public life, Mr..
Cleveland had no friend more loyal or
more helpful than Mr.. Bissell proved
TO be. The two gentlemen were part
ners in the practice of law at the time
when Mr.. Cleveland figured in the To-
cal offices at Buffalo. At the state
convention which nominated Cleve-
land for the Office of governor, in
1882, Mr.. Bissell was his especial
champion. Mr. Cleveland was practi-
m ~ 70 l,a %
the state. Colonel Lamont, now in
the Cleveland cabinet, was in attend
ance at the convention, operating with
the Daniel Manning forces for the
nomination of the late Gen. ii. w. Slo-
cum, of Brooklyn.
Indeed, Slocum was slated, but there
arose a misunderstanding between
Mr.. Manning, who was Samuel J. Til
den's political heir and assign, and the
Kings county delegation led by Boss
Roswell j. Flower was
in pursuit of the nomination, but Mr..
Blssell knew how to take advantage
of the situation; our memory is that,
when the preliminary campaigning in
cident TO the convention was we'll adj
yanced, Mr.. Manning and Colonel La
mont met Mr.. Cleveland for the first
time, Mr.. Bissell introducing them to
the then unknown aspirant from Buff
falo.
In all that has happened during the
thirteen years that have interviewed,
Mr.. Cleveland has had, in our belief,
one of his safest and most trusty
friends in Mr.. Bissell. 1t seems quite
improbable that the president would
permit petty postoflice appointment
to precipitate Mr. Bissells resigna-
ton,
