President Cleveland has thrown
CONSERVATION into the ranks of the
leading republican aspirants for the
nomination in 1896. They have
tried to hinder him in the admins
tration of affairs ever since his in
auguration. charging him with in
ability to rescue the country from
the financial embarrassment into
which it had fallen through republi-
can maladministration, and seeming
to gloat over the fact that they were
deluding the country into believing
that the demo cratic party was hope
lessly divided on the great ques tion
OF today. while their party was one
of harmony and brotherly love, and
only needed the opportunity of
speedily placing the country on .
firm financial basis. But President
Cleveland eat down on them the
other day. He sent message to
congress on the financial question
and thereby compelled the members
to stand mp in line and be counted on
one side or the other of this question.

DEATH OF JOHN SANFORD,
The Old Affair Brought to Notice
Once More.

The interesting case involving the death
of John NJ. Sanford the aged government
printing office watchnan, who died October
. last, under suspicious circumstances
took a new turn this afternoon when a
petition in probate was filed by Mrs
Florida F. Sanford. The latter, it will be
| remembered, was married to Sanford in
Baltimore few lays prior to his death.
| and before the body was inferred a will of
the deceased was presented for probate
leaving his entire estate, amounting to
about $500, to the bride. The Two sisters
| of Sanford, Mrs. Emmeline Young and Mrs
Sarah Campbell of 46 1 street northeast.
declared that their brother had been
poisoned, and the coroner, after successive
delays, held an inquest, the body in the
meantime being twice disinterred. A chcH,-
ical analysis showed the presence of arsenic
in the stomach of Sanford, but It was also
proved that the fluid used in embalminy the
body also contained large quantities OF
arsenic The jury decided that death was
due to natural causes.
At the same time an alleged first wife
of Sanford, from whom it was claimed,
he was never divorced. and who went by
the name of Rosa Stockholm. came from
New York and declared that she would
make claim to the estate. Since the cor
oner's inquest the case has rested no ac-
ticn on either side being taken until today,

Mrs. Florida Sanford, in her petition.
alter setting lorth the facts of her mar
ris,ge to Sanford and his death, goes on
to say that a rumor gained circulation that
Rosa Stockholm claimed to be the lawful
wife of Stanford. but the petitioner states
| that she does not believe her husband de-
ceived her; that she had lived in the same
house with him and his sister and nephew
| for two years prior to her marriage and
next door to them fer about four years
| and she knew him quite intimately. Dur
| ing all that time he declared himself un-
married, she says, and his relatives sus-
tanned him in this declaration. 1t was
also generally understood in the community
and in the government printing office that
| he was a single man, and so far as Mrs.
Sanford knows. she says no effort was
| ever made to show that Mrs. Stockholm
was the wife of Sanford, and il 1T could
| pos sibly be true then the conduct of both
parties was mysterious and beyond ex-
| plantation

The matter will come up for hearing in the
