CABLE TO TWO ISLANDS.
Order for the Wires Tying Ellis and
Governors Islands to the Mainland.

New York. April THE order for
laying a telephone and telegraph cable
from this city to Ellis Island was sent
from Washington yesterday to Dr.Sen-
ner, commissioner of immigration, and
the work will begin at once.
The cable will be almost two miles
long, two and e-eighths inches in di-
ameter, and will be laid by the Western
Union Telegraph company. 1t will cost
the government $40, 900, and the first
part of it, from this city to Castle Will
liam on Governors Island, must be laid
by April &c, so that General Wesley
Merritt, who will then be the command
ant, can use the wires in directing the
movements of the troops taking part in
the ceremonies on Grant day.
Neither Governors Island nor Ellis
Island has direct communication with
this city. All messages sent from Gov
ernor's Island pass through several sta
lions in Brooklyn before transmission
to this city, while the wires from Ellis
Island extend across the Communipaw
flats to New Jersey and then in a
roundabout way along the trolley roads
until they finally reach this city.

TODAY'S FAILURES.
List Includes a Mill, Coal 90. and a
Carriage Factory.

Lebanon, Pa, April THE Leba-
non Rolling Mills company, owners of
the large iron plant known as Light
Mills, have executed a deed of assign
ment for the benefit of creditors to
Samuel E. Light of the city and H. NJ.
Leonard of Philadelphia. The instru-
ment conveys all the company's prop
erty, and is assigned by Samuel Z.
Light, president, James H. Roberts,
secretary and Richard Nelly, treasur-
er.
Samuel e. Light said today that the
cause of the assignment was attributa-
bic to the necessity of the firm carry
ing $43, 900 in notes drawn by other firms
who have since assigned or failed, there
by compelling the company to pay in
terest on their own money. The assets
are in excess of liabilities and reorgan-
ization of the company will be made
as soon as may be expedient.
Sturgis, KY, April THE Cumber-
land Coal company, owned by capital
lists of Nashville, Tenn, with w. W.
Smith as president and Isaac Reese,
secretary, assigned today to Clarence
Wilson as assignee. The assets amount

EEAvENWORTH Is FLLGHTY
Now Accuses Topeka Of ''Trickery'
Last Year Concerning Reunion.

LeaVenWorth, April 7.-LeavenWorth
is determined to secure for 1897 the an
nua1 reunion of the soldiers of the late
war A meeting was held Monday nlght
to make arrangements for an active
canvass, and the subject was thorough
" discussed. 1t was the unanimous
opinion of the meeting that Leaven-
worth should send a strong delega ton
to Chanute, Kan, where the depart
nent encanpnnent of the q. A. r. is to
be held on April 81, and do everything
possible to bring the reunion here. But
for little trickery a year ago, 1t is
claimed. Leavenworth would have been
voted the reunion.
Appropriate committees were appoint
ed to solicit funds needed to pay the
expenses OF such an encampment, and
an adjournment was taken until next
ing will be held in Justice Bonds Of
flee.
There was no trickery about the Sc
curing of the reunion last year. The ma
jority of the delegates wanted to give it
to Topeka, 80 they gave it. Leaven-
worth has always displayed an insane
hatred for Topeka, fostered by her
foolish newspapers. The town was so
soured last fall that its papers never
mentioned the Fall Festival and Reun-
ion in Topeka, although the Topeka "a
pers gave columns of description to
Leavenworth's Apple Carnival. Every
newspaper in Kansas noticed the Tope-
ka Fall Festival except the Leaven-
worth papers.l

The state lost in the first criminal
case of the April term in tine district
court yesterday. After listening TO
evidence for several hours, the jury at
O'Clock last evening returned q YER
dict of not guilty in the case OF the
state against Henry Jordan, charged
with burglarizing Hord's shoe store.
The principal witness for the state
was Burley Hines, who turned states
evidence and stated on the witness

BRIsTOW GOING SLOW.
Not Making Such aWholesaIe slaugh-
ter of Postmasters

Washington, April THE sundry civ
il appropriation bill and the Indian ap-
preparation bill, which failed to pass at
the last session. have been reported
back to the senate
They will be taken up for considera-
tion early next week. The only material
amendment to the Indian bill was one
cutting out the clause appropriating
100000 for the purchase of additional
ground for the government building at
Topeka.
This was done because the item was
duplicated. While the bills will be de-
bated for some time, they will pass the
senate in nearly the same shape that
they were put through the house.

Office is now secured and administered.
Some time she believes public Office will
be regarded as a public trust and that
men charged with the duty OF serving
the people will have neither purpose nor
wish to debase that service in the in
terest of personal ends. And until that
time she can see no hope in socialism.
One misses the whole current and
moral or her life if one regards her as
a cultured woman living in the slums.
She is a cultured woman, Of course.
And equally, of course, her house is in
the sluns. 1t is a difficult thing to say.
But she is one Of those people She
does not becl1on them from height
nor direct them from a distance She
does not preach, she does not lecture.
She lives. And they see her manner OF
life laid down beside their own. Maybe
they will choose hers. At least they will
remember it.
she enters into their hearts She
knows their loves and shares them. She
knows their interests and seconds them.
She is good friends with them. The
saloon-keeper across the street is
good friend He will help Hull House
any day. He has helped it. He comes
to the meetings. No one tells him: 7

Mercury from Venus de Milo when
he sees it would have to be very far
along before he went in there. But if
he did he would probably get the right

The women of the neighborhood have
long ceased to regard Miss Adams as
a dispenser of charity. She is a friend
very close friend-and maybe she can
help them. anyway, they tell her their
troubles Aud usually she can help
them somewhat. She doesn't go away
when she has performed the service.
She is right there. She is one of them.
And SO they all love her and trust her.
and love and trust the women and men
she has gathered about her.
And it may be that some time the
sacrifice of those honest lives will bear
fruit of an evident redemption.

appear to be larger than American.
