HOW BISMARCK BECAME RICH.

German Writer Says the Chancellor
Speculated on State Secrets.
pamphlet has recently appeared in
Germany entitled "Bismarclsand Bleich-
roeder." Its author, says London Truth,
is member of the old Junker party of
the name of Diebat Daher, and it pro-
fesses to give some curious details in
regard to the present fortune of the ex-
chancellor and how 1t was acquired.
After the German war of 1870 the prince
received from the country two estates
of no great value, which, coupled with
his own paternal estate. brought him
in fair revenue. He then left Bleich-
roeder to look after his private moneta-
ry affairs. with the result that he now
has fortune amounting to $4,000. 900
marks. This, the author estimates, can
only have been made by stock exchange
speculations, based on the knowledge
thatthe prince derived from his position
at the head of the German governmenr
and which he confided to Bleichroeder.
That, with the cares of empire on his
shoulders. he left his monetary affairs
In the hands of his banker is very DOS
sib!e, and equally possible is it that his
banker did the best for his client. But
l should require good deal more evil
dence than is afforded in this pamphlet
to believe that the prince speculated on
state secrets in partnership with He
brew fnancier or that his fortune Is
now anything like 10000. 900 marks

Tom Curtin Assaults Conductor John
Barnes of the b. & O. S. w.
PARKERsBURG. Jan. 10.-Saturday
evening about s o'clock as Capt. John
Barnes, the we'll known B. & o. S. w.
conductor, was seated at his desk in
the conductors room at the b. & o. de.
pot making out some official papers,
Tom Curtin, ex-brakeman on the B. &
o. S. W., entered the Office, walked up
to Capt. Barnes, and without word
of warning struck the conductor in the
face with his fist.
The blow, while heavy one, failed
to knock the Captain out, but stunned
him for moment, during which the
ex-brakeman made his escape.
Capt. Barnes was but slightly injured
beyond sustaining black eye.
Curtin was recently discharged from
the service of the B. & o. $. W.; and
blamed Capt. Barnes with being in
strumental in procuring his discharge.

With the vote of Senator Burke, says
the Pittsburg Times, the democrats
could go ahead and, redistrict the State,
accomplishing two objects at the same
time. They could gain two or three
Congressmer, if not more. and at the
same time they could assist their Re-
publican allies in getting even with
Gen. Grosvenor, who has made himself
abnoxious to the combine through his
activity for Hanna, Grosvenor would
be put in heavy Democratic district
where his abilities as "0ld Figgers"
could have full play. Several other
Congressman who have incurred the
enmity of the combine leaders by their
devotion to Hanna are likely TO be re-
mem bered in redistrictipg bill. With
the vote of Burke the bill could easily
pass the Senate and, with a combine
majority in the House, would become
law and the Ohio Republicans. in
addition to the losses already sustain
ed, would lose in the Lower House Of
Congress besides.

BRIBERY CHARGES

WIN BE Made In Connection with the
Senatorial Fight in Columbus.
COLUMBUS, o.. Jan. 10. --I'he opposi-
tion claim that their case of bribery
arainst one of the Hanna workers will
be sprung in the open session Of the
legislature Tuesday for the purpose of
having an immediate investigation. 1t
is claimed that certain emisary went
to Cincinnati over Sunday to see Rep
resenta tative Otis, and that he carried
$40. 600 with him, and that every word of
the conversation between Otis and the
emissary has been taken down and
will be submitted in evidence. There
are many reports about the use of
money. but only two charges, one on
each side, are made specifically and
with any particulars as to the parties
involved or the amounts offered or the
documentary evidence. These charges
have no apparent effect on the very
close result, but they are having great
effect in intensifying the feeling be-
tween the workers of the contending
factions.
CoLUMBus. O., Jan. 10.-The sena-
torial situation was not changed Sun
day. The conferences continue day
and night and the doubtful members
are given no rest But no such fops
were announced Sunday as those of the
previous two days in favor of Hanna.
The workers for the senator say they
now have enough votes. The Kurtz
workers say they can spare another
vote or two and still defeat Hanna,
but they insist that they have lost
all of their doubtful men now and
will stand to the last with at least
eight republicans and the 65 democrat
ic members against Hanna. They even
say that they expect to get Manuel, of
Montgomery, and Griffith, of Union,
back on their side again before Tues
day. 1t is also claimed by the oppo-
sition that while Senator Hanna's
forces have been charging on their
lines that they have been successfully
attacking his lines and have promises
from members on whom the senator
has been depending.

ONE LIGHT THAT NEVER FAILS.

Tiny Gas Jet Whose Flame IL Con-
tinuous Year In and Year Out.
Everyone must recognize the beauty
and many advantages possessed by the
electric light. but, perhaps, few have
thought of the discomforts to which a
large part of the population would be
put II this most modern and perfect
illuminant were to supersede all the
older forms in use.
An excellent example of this is TO be
found in the large workroom of the re-
porters in the New York Sun office In
this room. says the paper, are scores Of
incandescent electric lamps. and no one
lacks light, but at an odd corner there
is always burning one little gas jet,
whose light is insignificant. but dearer
to the men who work about it than all
the electric lights in the room. Day
and night, year in and year out, this
gas jet burns with flame not more
than half an inch high, and quarter of
an inch broad. and day and night it is
the Mecca of every man who resorts to
tobacco smoking to sooth his nerves or
kill idle moments. Every body knows
where to find light for cigar, pipe. or
cigarette. but this was not true years
ago when the electric lights took the
place of the old gas jets which lit the
room. With these open lights in pro-
fusion no one had ever found it neces-
sary to keep stock of matches at haud
for starting smoke. For many day
and night after the electric lights were
established there were great hunts
through the Office for ma tches. and then
finally it became the fixed custom to
keep a gas light going at corner near
the sporting desk to accommodate the
smokers

A FRANK statement of the condition
of things in Mexico under the OPERA
tions of the silver standard is found in
the official address of DR.. Manuel
Flores in presenting the prizes to the
American exhibitors at the Chicago
and Atlanta expositions. The City of
Mexico Herald quotes DR.. Forbes as
saying: THE depreciation in the
white metal operated to depress our
mining interests, but could not crush
them. 1t seriously affected our fnan-
ces, but the government has overcome
the difficulties. Resultant thereto
many Mexican products hitherto unex-
portable are now exported, including
our sugar, coffee and grains. These
are produced for silver and sold for
gold" This shows where the Mexican
prosperity lies. Few in Mexico are
prosperous and they are prosperous at
the expense of the many. These arti-
cles produced for silver and sold for
gold" In other words, the producers
the laborers employed in the produc-
tion-are paid in dollars worth As cents
each, while the owners sell the finished
product to outside countries for gold
worth 100 cents on the dollar.

TODAY will in all probability witness
the close of the most unique and terrific
political battle ever recorded in the
history of the Nation. For more than
a week there have been conteuding at
Columbus the mighty forces of the Re-
publican party on one side and an alli-
ance of the Democratic party, the Re-
publican State administration and a
handful of conspirators on the other
side. According to u Leader special
received at 1890 a. m. the Republica
party will win and, true to its solemn
pledge and its traditions of honor and
integrity, will return M. A. Hanna to
the U. s. Senate for seven years.
Not, however, until the ballot is for
mally taken, will the all prevailing
interest in the fight be allayed. Some
of the men now pledged to the support
of Senator Hanna haye also been
pledged to the opposition and there is
time yet for many slip. At any rate,
the agony will soon be oyer.
