SHERMAN AND GARFIELD.
The Senator Declares There Was No
Enmity Between Them.

Enmity Between Them.
Senator Sherman is quoted In dispatch
tn the PHILADELPHIA Press from Mansfield.
Ohio. in reference to the criticisms that
have been passed upon his book. He
said he meant every word that he had
written in the book, and, speaking Of the
CHAPTER relating to Mr.. Garfield, he Is
quoted as declaring emphatically that moth
ing he gives to the public in the particular
chapter of his book which has become IA
NOUS in a day Is Intended TO convey an
Impression of enmity between himself and
Garfield. On the contrary, Senator Sher-
man said that as far as he knew James
A. Garfield had been lifted into the nominal
ton for President by the force OF circum-
stances which drifted his way. He init
mated that others than Garfield held the
cards which decided the presidential stake
and fell against himself, Sherman, rather
than In favor of Garfield. The latter. he
said, went into the convention pledged to
work for the Senator
In the following words did Senator Sher-
man, according to the Press correspondent,
come to the defense of his friendship with
Garfield: 1.-The extracts thus far published
from my book can give only an imperfect
understanding OF the situation as it really
was When the entire book is read 1t viii
be found that the newspapers are not justi-
fed in the comments they are now making
on this episode / repeat that which I
said in my book is my candid OPINION, AMI
will not be changed by what Others may
say. l say in my book that at the moment
l heard from the floor of the convention
that matters were drifting in favor of Gar
field / telegraphed my friends to turn in
my support for Garfield. Despite the reve-
lations which came to me later was
pleased with Garfelds nomination and
showed it by gofrg into the campaign for
him actively. He thanked me very heartily
| later for the good work which he was kind
enough to say l had done for him.
when he entered presidential duties Mr..
Garfield frequently consulted me on inn
portant matters. 1t was after such a con-
sultation that he appointed Window Sec
retary of the Treasury. That appointment
was made upon my advice and went to
show that President Garfield and myself
were on good terms and intimate Garfield
was ever man of large, generous i'm
pulses, always cordial His nomination re-
suited from the drift of circumstances.
Before ii came to him Gariieid's friends
were shaping matters in that direction:
whether he then knew what was going on

planation made to me by Mr.. Foster which

Vacant Lot Farms.

New York Correspondence Baltimore Sun.
Some idea of the success that has attend
ed the movement for the cultivation Of va
cant lots under the auspices Of the New
York Associa tiou for Improving the Condi-
ton of the Poor may be gathered from the
report of Superintendent Kelgaard of the
vacant lot farms, made on Saturday.
Mr.. Kelgaard reports that eighty-four
planters; received allotments of from three
and one-half TO one-qlarter acres. A care
full account of the crops taken amounts, up
to date, to S. SILT. In the spring he found
that more iaud mad been prepared than
could oe used by the applicants. and de-
cided that the extra land should be cult
waited comparatively. Planters who had
received land wer1 to work this co-opera-
tive tract and divide profits.
The yield mas been: Potatoes, 6235 BUSH
els; peas, SIT; beans, 1,2a9; cabbages. 1918
head; tomatoes, $50 crates: corn, 1000
dozen; carrots, 50 bushels. The expense of
the cooperative farms was S)24.76, and
the receipts S7!H.95. The total expenses of
the vacant lot farms up to date are
81, 734.23. The receipts will be increased
from crops still to Ice gathered.

Elsie?' 20.
Mrs. Warren. who had her hands in a

him standing excited and anxious, with
Esie's hat in his hand
why, WILL" responded Mrs. Warren,
quaking with new fear, 'she left to meet

Few minutes! Think, Mrs. Warren; how
long was it?
She looked at the clock. too bewildered
almost to read the time.
