Gen, Clay Loses His Reason.

Foxtown, KY, March 4.-Many
strange things have happened at White
hall during the past week, and the
friends of Gen. Cassius Marcellus Clay
fear the old man has lost his reason
grieying over his misfortunes.
Gen. Clay today sent messenger to
Valleyview, the former home Of his
late wife, Dora Richardson, from
where he wired Senator Lindsay at
Washington. the following message:
81 and my former wife, Dora Brock,
have been prisoners for about five
years, deprived of rife, liberty, proper
ty and pursuit of happiness by lawless
persons called the vendetta violating
all our State and national laws and
rights, committed against us all the
crimes possible, closing the United
States mails and telegraph offices out
side and inside the

lated my constitutional right of petit
ton and protest and the penal law of
the United States. Finally Dora's
mind and reason became shaken and
my eyes have been put out SO l can
only see as in thick fog and can new
er read print any more.
81 pray Congress to send a commit
tee here and save my life and me from
dying blind and alone in my own cas-
tile with starvation without crime or
reward for a lifetime of service in the
cause of justice and humanity, in
which received seventeen scars more
than all the majOr-generals from
Washington to the present time.

The actions of Gen. Clay have been
so at variance with what they were
previous to his marriage with his child
wife, Dora Richardson, five years ago
lat his neighbors have been afraid to
call on him for some time past, and
the old man has been living almost in
seclusion in his mansion.

WEDNESDAY. MARCH 8, 1899.
Ten Million Books a Year.
Dhere Msre mo- less than 4,ss6 boolsa

There were no less than 1886 books
brought out In this country last year.
The minimum number of copies issued
of each book handled by the publishers
is 1000, the average number Us con-
siderably more than 1000.
This means that about 10,000,000
volumes--more rather than less than
that-were sent out on sale during the
year. During the last ten years, to go
no further back, the press product
must have been at least 100000, 600
volumes, or enough to stock 10000 H.
braries with 10000 books each!
What has become OF all these books ?
The question is as puzzling as the old
one, What becomes of all the pinsY'
1t is as hard to answer as Edward
Everett Hale's inquiry as to the final
disposition made of all the hoopskirts
when that device for extending the
sphere, OF at any rate the circumfer-
ence, of women went out of fashion.
What adds to the puzzle in the
minds of book-collectors is the diff
Guilty they experience in discovering
secondhand copies of books that have
gone out of print Even in the case OF
unsuccessful and worthless books one
must long and diligently haunt the
stalls before he can find a single copy.
In one case novel of no possible
consequence was sold to the extent of
10000 copies IN its first month. Then
It died, and nobody now remembers ii
except the book sharps who remem-
ber everything. Yet when the author
wanted copy for his own library II
took six secondhand booksellers
He had supposed that at least half the
10000 copies had found their way to
the secondhand stalls.
II we go on printing 10000 volumes
a year, how are our book-shelves tc
hold them? On this point Rossiter
Johnson once made relieving sugges-
tion through the World. He pointed
out that the wood paper now used
quickly yellows and soon afterward
crumbles, so that in fifty years prob
ably; and in hundred years certainly,
all the books printed in our time will
be not .''dust-covered tones but dust
in very fact.
This is melancholy in the thought,
but there is consolation also.--New
York World.

Columbus, o., March 6.-Attorney-
General Monnett refused today to
make any statement as to the identity
OF the man who, 1t is alleged. offered
$400, 600 to stop prosecution of the
Standard Oil Company according to
the statement OF George Rice, and con-
firmed by the Attorney General him
self
II do not think 1t Is wise plan, said
he. IF I were TO give out his name
half dozen different departments of
the-trust would be after him at once,
and 1t might be that they could force
or pursuade him to keep his mouth
shut. In that case might be placed in
an unpleasant predicament. However,
/ was told today that on January "a.
while was in Washington and he was
in this city waiting for my return, he
made certain statements to other par
ties in this city. I cannot say what
these statements were, but the teSti-
mony Of these parties may be very use
full"
General Monnett was asked IL he
proposed Ito ask the Supreme Court to
institute an investigation into the
bribery story.
Il see no reason now why / should
do So" he replied. 1.-THE Court will
undoubtedly take such action In the
matter as best pleases 1t, without sug-
gestions from me. However. 1t may be
that will ask the Court to take the
matter up, but do not now think SO"
From another source Ut was learned
that the Supreme Co1rt would not take
the matter UP, unless asked to do so,
and possibly not then. Hon. L. T.
Neal. the local attorney for the Stand
ard Oil Company. poohpoohed the
whole story, and while not making the
positive declaration that the company
would not ask Investigation, evidently
does not think such action will be
taken. From present indications,
therefore, the public has learned as
mach OF the alleged attempt to corrupt
the Attorney-General as 1t ever will
know.
Rumors fioated about today that the
S400, 900 event was not the only time
that an endeavor has been made to
bribe General Monnstt. 1t was stated
that much smaller sum, approximat-
ing 100000 hau been offered him
months ago, but had been refused by
him. At the time he thought best to
say nothing Of 1t. 1t is also stated that
another offer was made to him, though
no amount Us given Ito this. The
Standard Oil company Is not connected
directly in the tales floating about
with either offer.
General Monnett was asked today to
make a statement as to the truth OF
these latter stories. He said: This
is not the time to discuss them. Suits
are pending in Court and further an
due publicity might defeat an object
have in vlew."

BOYCOTT MOVE ON THE WANE
Big Consolidated Lines Gradually
RccoNering Their Lost
Ground.

CLEVELAND. Aug. 3.-Absolute quiet
reigned throughout the city last night and
today Street car service was maintained
last night on the Union street line, which
passes through one OF the most turbulent
sections of the city, without trouble. The
military force is being rapidly withdrawn
and by the close of the present week the last
company of soldiers will probably be ordered
home.
There was decided increase in the num-
ber of passengers carried on some of the Big
Consolidated cars this morning. Many well
informed persons who have watched the
progress OF the boycott closely believe that
the movement has reached its limit and is
now on the wane.
At the strikers headquarters today II was
announced that fifty OF the nonunion motor
men and conductors running on the Wilson,
Central and Scovil avenue lines had quit
work because the Big Consolidated had
broken its agreement with them. The men,
1t is stated, were promised 81 day and
board until the strike was over. The cont
pany posted a notice today at the Wilson
avenue barns stating tha! as the strike was
cwn board The latter, however, deny that
the strike Is over and as a result, according
to the strike leaders, a number OF the new
men refused to take out their runs this
morning and are now engaged In trying to
induce other nonunon men to quit.
The Big Consolidated officials deny that
the men have stopped work as stated by the
strike leaders.

CHURCH OWNS THE GOOD LAND
Oregon Volunteers Express Their
Opinions on Philippine Mnt-
ters-Country is Rich.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 3.--With view to
obtaining reliable information regarding the
agriculture and other wealth. producing pos
sibilities of the Philippines, the Call has
interviewed a large number of the Oregon
volunteers whose long stay on the islands
afforded them excellent opportunities for
observation. Most Of the troops believe that
the land of the Philippines is well adapted
for American agriculture with the exception
OF the cultivation Of wheat, but they add that
nearly all of the agricultural land, and
certainly the best of it, is in the possession
of church authorities and would have to be
purchased by intending settlers
The soldiers of the Oregon regiment are
almost to a man in emphatic opposition even
to the suggestion Of making the natives Of
the Philippines citizens of the United States
although the opinion seems to prevail that
American labor laws could be advantageousy
put in operation on the islands. AS for
Americans working in the Philippines, the
soldiers declare that it Is utterly out Of the
question. The heat is too intense and the
climate generally too enervating. The
Philippines, they say, are the last lands on
the earth for poor men to seek with a
purpose OF improving their conditions.
