He had the three leading morning jour

penny-nothing but those monstrous
bills--and he was fearfully hungry,
hungrier, he thought, than ever before
in his life.
If he could only know what happened
when the-the-discovery was made.
Perhaps the morning papers would give
some hint about the bills. He would
have to see them before rislzing any
thing Through the long hours until
dawn he sat up, not daring to go to
bed, and pondered upon his situation.
The fire in the stove burned out, the
room grew cold and the chill made his
sense Of physical discomfort almost as
keen rs his mental torture. Nineteen
hours had passed since he had tasted
food, and his experiences in that time
had so exhausted him that the lack
made him weak and nervous The fancy

To clean india silk or plush or any
thing delicate, put some gasoline in a
basin; wash the goods between your
hands, in the first place; now turn out
and put in some more and rinse and
hang out to dry. Gasoline is good to

furniture may be sprayed with it, as it

door the morning papers for ledger
who would not wake for hours yet
Leaving his door open that the hall
might be lighted up, he slipped down
stairs, shuddering at each creaking step,
clutched the papers and returned swift
ly to his room. He had the three lead
ing morning journals, and taking them
together could be pretty sure Of know
ing all the reporters had been able to
find out
The accounts were meager, owing to
the lateness Of the hour at which the
body had been stumbled over by po-
iceman. Death appeared to have been
caused by frightful cash on the back
Of the mans head, produced evidently
by his falling upon Jagged, sharp
rock, but there was no reason to sup
pose his fall an accident. A great bruise
on the face showed that he had been
knocked down, no doubt for the pur-
pose of robbery. His valuable watch
and considerable sum of money were
untouched in his pockets, but that fact
simply went to show that the assassin,
after tearing his clothes open to plumber
him, had been alarmed by something
and had fled.
ALI was as the murderer could have
desired except that one account closed
with the sentence:
''The police have clew to the assas-
sin, and believe they will be xble to ar

According to our dispatches last night.
Coli, the assassin OF Premier Canovas del
Castillo, was heavily manacled awaiting
his doom. What that may be the columns
of this journal, which have chronicled the
hideous tortnres put upon his anarchist
comrades who were held merely as riot
ers, cannot tell.
1t appears that by common consent of
the leaders OF various parties and groups
in the Cortes, peace and amity is 70 pre-.
van among them until nine days after
the funeral of Canovas.
This is the arrangement, as wired TO
US from Msdrid. 1t may be satisfactory
TO the people who are parties to it; but
it represents a condition OF affairs so
critical that We must express doubt as
10 its observance. Amy situation which
requires a solemn covenant to refrain from
hOstilities for nine days must be bad,
indeed, and it VIII not surprise anybody

With some anxiety We have been watch
ing to see what effect universal adherence
OF the past Cuban policy of the Admins
tration might result in to that great
shaken the alliance with Spain, although
current events may 60 so. Il does not APP
pear 10 have disturbed the equaninlity with
which cul authorities have been able 10
contemplate the outrage and butchery OF
Cuban women, girls and little children by
Weyler's Officers and soldiers; but there is
pround for thinking that it has rattled the
Government TO some limited extent, and
rendered it GppreheRsive and suspicious
OF its methods and of itself.
The phenomenon to which we desire to
call attention is seen in the seizure of a
schooner at Bridgeport, Conn, loa ded with
rifle cartridges. For a long time, the yes
sci in question has been enga ged in carry
ing ann unition from Connecticut manufac-
turers or that protected native commodity
to the ordnance office in New York. or to
the garrison Oh Governors Island.
The other day Mr.. Eugene de LONE
gathered unto himself the suspicion that
the cargo for the forts in New York harhor
constituted filibustering expedition with

this country and His Most Christian Males
ty," and insisted that it should be seized
Now In the combined wisdom of the State,
War and Navy Department 1t was known
that the schooner was in Government en-
ploy, and that Its load belonged to the
United states Nevertheless, as an In
stance OF zeal In devotion to friendly
monarch, and as an illustration Of doubt
concerning its own motives, the naval boat
Fern was sent TO Bridgeport TO capture the
pirate. Accordingly, the pirate was taken.
and, at latest reports, was held In the
custody OF United States deputy marshal
1t is hard matter TO know what to
II axe OF the Incident; but, in the main. its
general tendency is hopeful. 1t may mean
that Nj Mckinley has had an ebuIlition of
good impulses, and originally intended to
send the ammunition TO Gen. Gomez; but.
fearing that his sense of duty to Liberty
and Humanity might overcome his respon-
sfbiitty Co the Hanna power, he ordered
the stuff 10 be seized, that he might be
delivered from temptation.
Such thing would only be a new hdt-
cation of the swinging Of the executive
pendulum between the point of right and
duty and the opposite one OF coatrol by
the eHanna-ie Hale-spanish influence. There
fore, It Is encouraging. Some day he may
forget to have something seized. For any
such lapse of memory grateful people
will bless him.
