Martin, of Long Reach, West Va. contracted
a severe cold which left him with cough.

LONDON, April ga dispatch to The

gers reply to Chamberlain will be pub
lished shortly. 1t is diplomatic master
piece, and declares that the Transvaal gov
ernment objects to the discussion of re-
forms on the ground that England admit
tedly cannot interfere with internal af-
fairs. At the same time, private sugges-

always receive consideration. The Trans

THE TREASURY DEFICIT.


It win he $4,000. .OOO for the Past Year
and @136, 6,sG1,SIe for Three Years.
WAsHGNGToN, April s7-The treasury
deficit for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1896, will be approximately S25 900, 900. This
is the opinion of officials and others best
qualified TO make an intelligent estimate
Of the result of the fiscal operations Of the
year. In his annual estimates sent to con
gress at the beginning of the present ses-
sion the secretary of the treasury esti-
mated the receipts from customs during
the fiscal year at SIZE 100000 SO far, with
nearly ten months of the year gone, the
customs receipts have reached about Sl37
100000 with fair prospect of increasing
to S165 600, 600 by the close of the year. The
estimate of the reSclpts for internal rev.
enue sources was @l5S, 900 900. Up to this
time they have reached 1920, 900, 900, and it
is expected that the figures for the com
pleted year will be about Sl46, 100000
The receipts from miscellaneous sources
are expected to slightly exceed the esti-
mates of s15, 100000, making the total re-
ceipts for the year about 1927, 900, 0O0 The
seoretary's estimate of the years expen.
ditures was 1862, 900, 900, which, according
to his figures, would leave deficiency of
S17OO0,OO0
The actual expenditures, however, 1t is
now thought, will aggregate about $685.
0OO,0O0 or s1O0o0,0OO less than Mr. Car
isles estimate in December last, so that
the deficiency at the close of the year, it is
believed will not show any very material
change from Saturdays flgures-s95, 1852,
423. This makes the total deficit for the
three fiscal years ending June 80, 1896,
S136, 1851, ,S12.
The secretary's estimates at the time they
were made were believed by those of long
experience in the department to be ex-
tremely conservative. The receipts from
both customs and internal revenue sources,
however, have been surprisingly low, and
there does not seem to be any immediate
prospect of material improvements.

WOMAN CoNWCT's CONFESSION.
Committed = Murder for Which Others
Arc Serving Life Sentences.

are surviving AsiAo 'VhNNheS"
WAUPoN, Wis, April %. Minnie Allen,
a convict, 30 years old, serving two years
for burglary has confessed that on the
night of April go, 1894, at Buffalo, N. Y,
she shot and killed Montgomery Gibbs, a
lawyer The woman says she makes the
confession to clear Clarence Robinson and
wife, who are serving life sentences for
the murder At the expiration of her SEN
tence she will go to Buffalo and plead
guilty to the charge of murder. She will
be released in few weeks.
The confession has been repeated by
Miss Allen before the state board of con-
Crol. A letter from w. w. Saperstone, of
Buffalo, says he has been retained as at
torney by the Robinsons, serving life sem
tences for the crime, to secure their re-
lease. The Robinsons, it will be remem-
bered, were variety performers, and they
narrowly escaped death sentence.
The confession of Minnie Allen is that
she met Gibbs in California and was Sc
duced. Gibbs refused to marry her, and
she lost track of him. In April, 1894, she
was at the new Tiff House in Buffalo,
and in that city met Gibbs. On the night
of the murder he took her to the theater.
They left early, and while ON Delaware
avenue she again asked him to marry her
He refused and she asked him for his re
volver. He handed her the weapon and
she shot him, threw tho weapon beside his
body and went to the hotel, going from
there to New York.
At the Imperial hotel in that city she
left her trunk. She came west, was ar
rested in Laporte, Ind, for theft, was re
leased because she successfully feigned in
sanity went to Racine and was there ar
rested and sentenced She went to Buf

endorse Robert f. Pattiaon for the Presidency
and adopt the unit rule. That is the pro-
gram laid out for the delegates by Boss

1t looks as though there would be
prominent Democrats leaving the
fold every day or two until the Sd
of November. The list made pub.
lie in the last "a hours is notable
one. 1t begins with Calvin 8. Brice,
late senator of the United States
from Ohio. Mr.. Briee has been ST.

now he has written letter to his
friend, John III. Heron, president of
the Board of Trustees of the Miami
University, which closes with this
significant postscript: IL hope that
Populism will be Defeated
In the State of New York two in
fiuential Democrats, Charles F.
Brown and Nathaniel H. Clement,
have declined the party nominations
for Judge Of the Supreme Court, be-
cause they cannot conscientiously

In New Hampshire, Mr.. o. E.
Branch, United States district at
torney has resigned as member of
the Democrat State Committee. In
a letter to Chairman Amey, giving
reasons for his action, Mr.. Branch
says he finds himself not in harmony
with the Democracy of the State up
on vital questions, chiefly because
the recent State Convention indors-
ed the platform adopted at Chicago,
which Mr.. Branch holds is not
Democratic platform nor declaratory
of the principles of the historic Dem.
ocratic party.

Acknowledged that they believe in

No one hears of Republican lead
ers forsaking their party, or Repub-

cts, or designations of Republican
Presidential electors. Still Mr.. Bryan
had the sublime assurance to declare
in writing, over his own signature,
only four days ago, that "The num-
Der of Republicans who have declar-
ed for free silver outnumbers the
Democrats who have deserted the
ticket and, while the number of
silver Republicans is increasing all

Bryan invited his hearers to hold up
their hands, Fitzgerald's hands went
up. When he put them down, all his
