CRY OF "WOLF' WORN OUT.
There is evidence already that the
fusion party in this State will attempt
to conduct another campaign of mere
empty abuse of its opponents. AL
though the poverty Of the party in
positive or worthy issues may be an
excuse for this, we think that we can
assure our friends that it will be a.
distinguished failure. The cry of
''wolf'' may deceive somebody once,
but it is worthless for soaring pur-
poses thereafter.-Red Wing RepubH-

IRRELEVANT AND 1MMATERIAL. Al.
The plea that there are suspected,
undetected and -unconvicted congress
men as bad as or worse than Roberts is
irrelevant and illogical There may
be. But they have not presented their
fetid lives in fragrant, organic and de-
faint form to the scrutiny of mankind,
and they have not based their admis-
sion to congress on claim of systema-
tic, signal, overt and deliberate indie
:cency. Nor is the suggestion, 'sWhat
should Roberts do with his so.called
&wives?" pertinent. He should support
all Of them and live with the legal one

OPPOSED TO PROGRESS,

When the house was making ar
engagements yesterday to bring the
financial bill to vote week from
next Monday, "The Democrats, Pop
ulists, and Silverites presented solid
front against the adoption of the reso.
luton" Of course, they did. Those
boys can be depended upon to oppose a
grim array to the march of progress,
every time. But it's all in vain. Nine
days more and there'll be an end to the
long-drawn-out farce of bimetallism in
this country, of which the, very ground
llngs themselves are weary.-Dul,dh

"Yes, my son, replied the father.
"And will the cannibals go there,

A Sporting Judge.

After Baron Martin, who possessed
a great horror of sporting "proph-
ets," had become partially deaf, he
was on one occasion trying racing
sase, an exercise of his functions
that he reveled in.
One of the counsel engaged in it
was named Stammers, a solemn,
formal, sententious parsonage, who
seldom made a speech without quot
ing passages from Scripture. In ad-
dressing the jury, he was about to
pursue his old habit, and got as far
As "as the prophet says, " when the
Judge interposed:
Don't trouble the jury, Mr..
Stammers, about the prophets.
There is not one of them who would
not sell his father sixpenny worth
IF halfpence.
"But, my lord, y said Stammers,
n subdued tone, 81 was about to
quote from the Prophet jeremiah.
Don't tell me, replied the baron.

CLEVELAND. Ohio. May An execu-
tive officer of one of the big steel consonda-
tion makes this statement to the Iron Trade
Review.
There is no truth in the story of a con-
solidation Of the Carnegie Steel Company,
National Steel Company. American Steel
Hoop Con pany and American Tin Plate
COMPANY No deal has been made for a
consolidation of any of the companies
named and while ii is true that there has
been some talk of a consolidation of several
Of the s=eel companies. nothing definite has
come OF il. No announcement of plans,
either official unofficial. can be made.
1t is unlikely. in airy event. that the
Carnegie Steel Company viii be actually
consolidated with any other steel company.
However close trade relations between the
Carnegie Steel Company and the National
Steel Company, American TIN Plate Com
pany and American Steel Hoop Company
ray result from negotiations under way
within the past week
II would not be surprising says the Re
view, if some definite announcement con-
corning the Carnegie Steel Company in the
above connection is made within the week.

Several weeks ago a story was given
wide publicity through the newspapers to
the effect that a marriage was contem-
plated between Mrs. George w. Childs of
this city, formerly of Philadelphia and
Gen. Joseph Wheeler of Alabama This
publication caused Mrs ChiIds much an
noyanee, but she refrained from making
any public, denial from a mistaken belief
that the absence of any foundation for the
lie mind and from an aversion to adding
to the publicity which a denial would bring
Inc revival of the mischievous story, en-
be!lished with details that have been invent
ed to giveft piausibllity, has brought addi-
tlonal annoyance and distress to Mrs
Childs, a4d has induced her to reconsider
fhe deteTpi INA ton not to notice the false
report. IN a Conversation with the Ledger
