Elyria, June 2S.-Judge Kohler de-
cided the case of E. G. johnson vs.. the
City OF Elyria this morning. johnson
asked for an injunction enjoining the
issue Of $3.50, 900 for water works bonds.
Judge Koehler decided against the city
and granted the injunction on the fol-
lowing grounds: First, that the buy
ing of the old waterworks repealed the
proceedings regarding the $25O,OO
issue. Second, that the mayors proc
lamation giving notice Of election was
illegal, having been issued previous to
the expiration OF the ten days provided
by law. This puts the whole question
before the people again and is big
victory for Mr.. Johnson. The attor-
neys for the city had the advice OF the
best lawyers in Cleveland. and Mr..
johnson was assisted in looking up
legal points by attorney Lee s. Davis.

Washington, June 30.-President
Mckinley is much pleased at the
splendid showing made by the national
finances for the fiscal year which ended
today. The receipts of the government
from every source have been many
millions in excess of estimates-inter-
nal revenue receipts for the year we're
more than $l00,000,000 in excess of
those for the year ending June 30, 1893.
Our financial condition today is an OBJ
ject lesson for the world, showing as
nothing else could so strikingly, the
wonderful resources OF the United
States. Notwithstanding the large ex-
penditures on account of the war, our
treasury is fairly overhowing with
money, and the company is more pros
porous than at any period in its history.
Is it any wonder that the president, as
we'll as every man who has helped 10
bring about such a condition OF affairs,
is pleased2

The college year of Western Reserve
University, Cleveland, which closed
with commencement of last week has
been one most prosperous. The num-
Der Of students has been large, the new
courses offered have been popular, and
the increase both to equipment and
endowment has been notable.
The commencement speakers were
President Gilman Of Johns Hopkins
University, Professor William Keith
Brooks of the same institution, and
Professor Benjamin Ide Wheeler of
Cornell. One hundred and seventeen
degrees were conferred by the univer-
sity through its different departments.
Another semitic building was dedi-
Gated during the week, laboratory
for the departments of biology, zoology
and botany. The structure is of stone,
of Gothic design, three stories in
height, sixty-three by ninety-three
feet in size. Besides laboratories and
lecture rooms, il contains aquaria,
and rooms whose temperature can be
kept either low or high as may be de-
sired for the rearing of various ami
mails under most favorable conditions.
Provision is also made for the erection
Of greenhouse, as an annex, for the
department Of botany.
At the same time the sod was raised
for the Harkness chapel Of the college
of women. The officers of the college,
together with one representative Of
each class, formally broke ground for
this building. The dome for the equa
torial telescope, one of the largest pos
sessed by college in this county, il
approaching completion, and the in
struments with all accessories will bt
placed in position before the opening
OF the college in September.
In addition to these more notable
gifts, the university has received al
endowment for two chairs and severa
thousand dsllars for the library. Th'
whole amount represented by all thesC
gifts aggregates no less than a hundred
and twenty-five thousand dollars.

erect large buildings.

dent ever had more united support
from his cabinet in carrying out any
policy than President Mckinley has
had for his Philippine policy.
Gen. J. Warren Keifer, who for !,
long time represented an Ohio distri '
in the house, of which he was speaker
is a close political observer. Wheel
asked for his idea of the outlook in the
Buckeye state he said: "Ohio has on
several occasions gone over to the
democracy, but this year will stay in
the republican column. Some party
dissension exists, but all the jawing
and rowing will cease before election
day, and when the votes are counted
the republican nominees will land easy
winners" Speaking Of a recent trip,
Gen. Keifer said: 81 have been in
Kansas and Nebraska of late, and find
that the free silver issue is no longer a
drawing card in those states. If Mr..
Bryan should be the candidate of the
democracy in 1900 he will hardly be
able to get the electoral vote of his
own state. Men who are for him have
openly admitted to me that he has not
a chance Of election. The democrats
will be sorely pushed for issues in the
next national campaign. That the
campaign of next year will be repeti-
tion of the success Of the republicans l
have not the slightest doubt"
Mr.. G. G. Revel, of Missouri, drew
the following word picture Of ex-Gov.
Stone, of that state, who has been
spoken of as a possible rival of Mr..
Bryan for the democratic nomination
next year: ex-Gov. Stone imagines
that he is much bigger man politi-
cally than the country at large holds
him to be. AS presidential timber he
is too far below the requirements to be
considered. He is rather a shallow
man, with lots of vanity and nerve, but
why he should think of himself as q
presidential possibility is decided
puzzle to many Missourians who are
we'll acquainted with him."

were last year at this time, and the
total number of patents, trade marks
issued this week, 633, was larger than
in any one week since April, 1890.
There are in the neighborhood of 5000

Secretary Alger thinks Governor
Pingree has been misrepresented in
recent widely published newspaper in
terviews, and therefore declines to
discuss them. He says very positively
of his own position: II am with Pres
ident McKinley's administration and
supporting it, of course, in its policy on
all questions" He also said that he
saw no reason for his retiring from the
cabinet In his candidacy for the senate,
and had no idea of retiring, 1t can be
stated in this connection, upon high
authority, that President Mckinley
will have absolutely nothing to do with
the contest between Secretary Alger
and Senator Mcmillan, both of whom
are his personal friends, for the sena-
torship.
Secretary Long promptly called down
the ridiculous lie that he had protested
at cabinet meeting, against the policy
followed by this government in dealing
with the Filipino revolt, but those who
are in reality keeping the revolt going
by their absurd criticisms of the ad'
ministration have not hesit ated to keel
lies going after they have proven to bt
such, and will probably try to keel
this one before the public. No presi
