OUR CITIZENS IN u
Urges an appropriation
for Their Relief,

WASHINGTON, May IT, The presi-
dent to-day sent the following message
to congress.
To the senate and house Of Represen-
tatives Of the United States: Official in
formation from our consuls In Cuba es-
tablishes the fact that q large number
OF American citizens on the island are
are in a state of restitution, suffering
for want OF food and medicines. This
applies particularly to the rura. districts
of the central and eastern parts. The
agricultural classes have been forced
from their farms into the nearest towns,
where they are without work or money.
Thr local authorities in 5everaltowns,
however kindly disposed, are unable TO
relieve the needs OF their own people
and are altogether powerless TO help
our citizens.
The latest reports from General Lee
estimates 600 to 800 Americans r with
out mears of support. I have assured
him that provisions will be at once
made TO relieve them.
To that end I recommend congress to
make an appropriation of not less than
$4,000 to be Immediately available
for use under the direction Of the sec
rotary of state.
II is desirable that part of the sum
which may be appropriated by congress
in the direction OF the secretary o.
state also be used for transportation Of
American citizens who desire TO return
TO the United States and who are with
out the means to do 20.

Greeley's Writing.

There was only n printer who could
read Greeley's writing well enough to
put it in type. He used TO boast that he
could read the great editors wondrous
serial q mile away.
One night the boys In the New York
Tribune composing-room ''put up q job
on the old man. They took two boosters
and made them walk on a newly-inked
form, and then all over 10 sheets Of
copy paper.
The foreman wrote over It in Gree
ley's well known serial, "The Plain
Duty of Congress-" and put it on old
man Lawton's hook. / think his name
was Lawton, but IL 1t was not it does
not matter much.
The old mar picked it up swore a lit
tie, remarked that they had to shove
the stuff on the old man as usual, adjust
ed his spectacles and began sticking
type.
The other printers watched him for
q few minutes, but beyond o muttered
oath or two he gave no sign. Lawton
went on setting type until about half
way through the copy"
Then he was stuck.
He took the copy over to the foreman
and asked:
Jack, what Ii that word?"
81 don't know" replied the fireman.
sYou know could read that
stuff"
Lawton took the sheet down to Greeley
and pointed out to him a particularly
awful serial of the ROSTERS foot, asked
what that word was.
Greedy looked at It Q moment, and re
piled with a frown:
"Unconstitutional, OF COURSE
Lawton went back to the composing
room and finished his task with the
utmost sang froid.
The old man never knew how the
,'eopy'' was produced. Journal Of Ed

NoveI Patent To Curb the 8 of
Tobacco.

A time lock for tobacco boxes. lately
patented by Grant W. Smith, Of O'Neill
Nebraska, is designed to control the
supply OF chewing or smoking tobacco
carried by the user of the weed, and
enable one who so desires TO limit him
self In its use. The tobacco box, accord
ing to this improvement, has one COM
partment for the tobacco and another
In which is a clock gearing with time
indicating and time controlling notched
dial adapted to engage or release a
latch hook by which the lid OF the
compartment containing the tobacco II
closed. The victim Of the tobacco
habit may regulate the mechanism so
that he can have access TO the tobacco
in the box at stated times only, and
thus, in the words OF the inventor,
control his appetite therefor and re-
sist inclination to its inordinate use;"
80 that, ''by gradually increasing the
length OF time between such acts Of In
diligence, the habit Of tobacco chewing
and smoking may be greatly restricted,
and cured In course of time, as its affect
on the system is gradually diminished"

NationaIE e Educational dissertation
Meeting.

For the meeting Of the National Edu-
cational Association at Buffalo In 1895
the excellent service given by the Union
Pacific was commented on by all those
who had the pleasure of using that line.
This year our educational friends meet
In Milwaukee, Wis, July 9Th TO 9th,
and members OF the association and
others from points west Of the Missouri
River should by all means take the
Union Pacific.
The service OF the UNION PACIFIC
via Omaha and Kansas City Is the very
best. The equipment consists of hand
some day coaches, Chair Cars, Pullman
Buffet and Drawing Room Sleepers,
Dining Cars and Buffet Smoking and
Library Cars. Fewer changes than via
any other line. One fare, plus $3.50 for
the round trip will be the rate from all
points west OF the Missouri River for
this meeting.

TARIFF BILL L A
The Measure Probably Will Be Called
Up May %.

WASHINGTON, May l1.-There are
still delays ahead for the tariff bill. II
was arranged that 1t should be taken
up May 18th, last Tuesday, but this
was with the understanding that the
statement of comparisons of various
tariff laws with the proposed measure
should be ready last Thursday. Not
only was this agreement not kept, but
it was discovered yesterday that the
statement which has been prepared is
full of errors-as many as 400, accord
ing to one authority-and it has been
sent back to the Treasury Department
for repairs. Consequently, it cannot
be put in the hands of the minority
members OF the Finance Committee
until the latter part of this week.
The general understanding now is
that the bill viii be taken up May %,
or one week later than was at first ar
ranged. Senator Jones, of Arkansas,
says that 1t is quite certain that the
debate in the Senate could not COM
mence on the 18th. Senator Allison
and Senator Aldrich r out Of town,
so that their programme is not known,
but If they mov TO take up the bill
the 18th they will meet with opposi-
tion, and their motion will be defeated.
"What schedules will lead TO the
greatest debate?,' was asked Of Sena-
tor Jones Of Arkansas.
Sugar, wool, crockery and glass
ware" he replied, Twill all be thor
oughly discussed. have not had time
yet to read every section of the bill,
and the delay in furnishing TO US COM
parative statements has made it inn
possible to analyze the figures. There
are, however, iniquities in every para
graph. The tariff on salt is one of the
things that will be stubbornly contest
ed. The sugar schedule is outrageous,
and we will riddle it before we get
through. I understand that the Presi-
dent thinks that the bill will be passed
by the 1st of July. think it probably
the End or maybe the 3rd."
II nothing else should be done, the
likelihood now seems to be that an an
THRUST amendment will be adopted
Senator Pettigrew, who introduced an
amendment of this nature, has made
q canvass of the Senate and says that
from 8 to 10 Republicans, all the Popu-
lists and the solid Democratic side will
vote for it. 1t proposes that if an arti-
Gle manufactured by a trust is CONVEX
ted into a monopoly, the duty on the re
fined Article shall be RENTED. It ii
probable that this viii be amended
so as to provide that the duty imposed
by the law upon the raw material shall
be collected from the raw and refined
alike. This would not decrease the rev,
enu Talks with many Senators indi

Iron and steel.

CLEVELAND, Sept. 29.-The Iron Trade Re
view says: The buying of Bessemer pig iron
in the Pittsburg and other central Western dis dis
weeks being estimated at close to 100000 tons;
Further purchases are pending, since it is well
known that large steel companies consuming
more pig iron than they produce While $3.50 II
the valleys the highest transaction reported
last week, $40 has been done since, this being
for 1898 delivery, and $10.25 is now minimum
with most sellers. Gray forge has gone to So 70
in the valley, and s9.5O@9.75 Pttsburg is guoted,
this reprsSen ding advance of about $l50 from
ale lowest point. Northern sellers of foundry iron
have sti1fenej their prices in sympathy with the
advances in other grades and Southern sellers,
finding order books well filled for four months
ahead and orders steadily coming in have held
firmly to the advances noted last week. The Ten
nessee Company, it is intmated, will make a
further advance of 25c this week from the Blrm-
ingham basis of $725 for No foundry and No No
and $6.75 for gray forge. 1t is evident that
Southern iron is now very close to the point at
which exports will be prohibited. This would
have been the case now but for the recent adj
vance in pig iron in England The foundry buy
ing of the past week has been of good volume.
Some buyers hesitated in the face of the higher
prices asked for deliveries in 1885, and sellers
arc likewise chary of business for next year.

NEW YORK. Sept. 98.-The dry goods market IYe
shows no features of moment, the dizziness OF the
week being fully marked as at the opening.
Nevertheless in everything except print cloths the
market remains firm. These show tendency
toward weakness but it is thought that trading
would be heavy at a slightly lower price for
heaviest run of business in several years. Woolen
goods are firm and in steady request on recorders.
Silks are in fair demand at advanced prices.
Reports from out of town show universally
good distribution at second hands and at retail.
The fact that epidemic of fever has been
averted in Texas and Louisiana has resulted in
10 be probable at an early date staple cotto tons
foreign demand continues light and there has
been a marked decrease in the production of
these lines Of cottons. Print cloths are nomlnaly
quoted at 25sc.
