ANY SUCH INTENTION.
There was some speculation yesterday about the
report that Thomas r. Reed, Speaker OF the House
OF Representatives. would the end OF his term de-
cline to be reelected TO Congress- and come TO New

intimated that MI Reed would make this change In
order TO claim citizenship in Ncw-York that he
might be candidate for the Presidency in 1900 from,
this State Mr.. Reed Is arbitrator for several in
surance corporations. having the place formerly held
by the late Ex-Governor William T.. Russell Of

natural home would be NewYork In case OF his re-
tirement from Congress. Mr. Reed IL now said IN

turn to Washington In time for the opening OF Con-

A STRANGE VARIATION

The press OF New York continues to
give the Rev. Dr. Lyman Abbott an
unpleasant quarter Of an hour every morn
ing on account of his wicked infidelity
concerning Jonah and the whale. The
pastor Of one metropolitan church argues
that If Jonah and the mammal 90, every
thing goes, including the Red sea, the
mama in the Wilderness, Joshua's horn
that blew Down the walls OF Jericho, and
the entire rifle contest.
what is particularly strange is that
Dr. Abbott should be doubtcr at ali,
He comes Of family very distinguished
for its simple faith, for ability to be-
lieve anything. John s. c. Abbott be-
Hcvcd in Napoleon to an extent which
gave fact and evidence the paresis. He
would have swallowed bigger man than
Jonah. and TWO whales without a grimace.
We are seeing many Indications OF the
decadence of American families, and the
fail OF Dr Lyman Abbott is among the
saddest.

DEPEw HAS MADE BREAKS.
They May Result in Disappoint-
ing His Political Ambition.

(Washington Letter in Chicago Record)
1t is not probable that New York Will
be recognized in the Cabinet 1t does not
seem possible to find any one there upon
whom the various factions agree, now
that Mr. Bliss has declined, but there
is a tremendous effort being made for
Henry Porter for place in the Cabinet
or a foreign mission, and for Chauncey
Dcpew as minister to England. j. Pier
pont Morgan, and other heavy contributors
to the campaign fund, are asking that
their reward shall be a commission as
ambassador for their friends. Major Nc
kinley has been much preludiced against
Mr.. Depew by speech he ma de at Harlem
during the campaign, and by his recent
speech at the Platt dinner at Albany.
In the former he discussed the news
paper reports of his engagement to Miss
Collins before n crowd of politicians in
what many people considered very Coarse
and vulgar manner. He said among other
things that he would not tie himself up
to one woman; that while he was opposed
to the doctrine OF Is to in finance, he
was stronly in favor of it as applied TO
marrag ge, and he thought that sixteen
women to one man was the right pro-
portion. While Mr. Depew might have
intended this as an innocent bit OF humor,
1t was not so construed by his audience,
who roared and shouted and pounded the
floor as If they had seen a bit of the
Seeiey dinner, nor by the people who
read an account ofthe meeting in the news
papers the next morning.
Mr.. pepcw's speech at the Piatt dinner
is criticised with equal severity, and th,
evidence of indiscretion which he has
show1fNin his public addresses Of late are
thought to show his unftness for duty
requiring SO much delicacy, discretion and
tact as is demanded Of the ambassador
to England. The diplomatic regulations
have been recently revised, and now for
bid the diplomatic agents of the United
States making public addresses on politi
cal or international topics. The Secre
tary Of State is said to have had Mr.,
Depew as well as Mr.. Bayard in mind
when he adopted the new regulations.
Mr.. Depew has refused foreign missions
several times from previous Presidents,
hut this time he is an office-seeker, and
it is a significant fact that the men who
have influenced him to decline when such
honors lave been offered him in the past
are now working most actively for his ap-
pointmcnt.
T!is is interpreted to mean a desire
to smooth he way for his honorable re-
tirement from the presidency of the New
York Central Railway. The Vanderbilts
are drawing out OF the road, and its con-
troll is passing into the hands of syndi-
cate, OF which Pierpont Morgan is the
chief man. Mr.. Morgan is Mr.. Depew'S
! most active supporter for the British am
baSSadorShip.

RI -SSIA AND CHINA

The secret treaty between Russia and
China is no longer so, and there is an I'M
comfortable conviction in London that
British diplomacy has beer outwitted, and
that the end of British commercial in
nuence in China is in sight This is Il
matter Of Some interest to us, beyond The
mere fact that England will be likely to
seek some compensating advantage in the
Western Hemisphere, where her diplomacy
and poIicy have always conquered, what
ever little accident may have happened to
her arms now and again
The new alliance gives Russia the forts
and practical control of the Korean penin-
sular harbors, for which she agrees to pro-
tect that part Of the empire against for
eign aggression. Russia also secures a
concession for a railway through Manchuria
to connect with her Siberian railway sys-
