Mrs Lansing sent your wife an invita-
ton To her last reception and was disap-
pointed because she did not come. She
Yes" answered Uncle BIZ. Il know
she did, but I wonder if you remember
how you all treated Mile last session I
do. You must think I'm foolish to take
an invitation just before you come up for
election on the square. I'll tell you
what III do. If you want TO git my vote
you've got to give me q contract in black
and white that Mile gifts an invite 70 all
your wife's doin's for the next six years
here an in Washington, too"
Senator Lansing pointed out the absur-
dity Of the request and was met with the
secure Uncle Bits vote. The next day
after a further consultation, he made a
second call and found Uncle BIZ as
firm as before BY this time it was GER
tain that ''Uncle BITS" vote was abs0-
lutely essential to Senator Lansing's sue
cess, and it is a matter Of record that a
contract in writing was actually drawn
up and signed by the Two parties 10 the
bargain. The contract itself is said to be
still in existence in state not far west
of the Mississippi river.
Mrs. Bradlaw developed later into a
woman Of many social graces. As Uncle
Pip sold az the Start he had fba money
to pay the bills, and he never made the
slightest objection to any of her expendi-
lures. She even finally succeeded in get
ting him to put on a dress suit in the
evening, though to the day of his death
he clung to his red shirt and high boots
for ordinary occasions.

CHAPLAIN no THE DUKE.
Rev. A Fasanotti Fears Norfolk ssHas
Stirred Up a Hornets Nest.v

New York Jan 10-The Rev. A. Fas-
anotti, ID. D., now a resident of New
York but formerly chaplain to the Duke
of Norfolk in England speaking OF the
duke and the scene in Rome attendant
upon his address to the pope, in which
he expressed the hope that the temporal
poDer be returned to the holy see dur
ing the new century SAID i am afraid
that the duke has stirred up a hornets
nest. I am an Italian myself and hav-
ing resided in Rome for a long time, I
know well the susceptibiIities OF the
Italians in regard TO any utterance
which might advocate or imply the de-
struction Of united Italy. The speech of
the duke at the reception of the English
pilgrims at the Vatican, coming as it
does from a. prominent member of the
British aristocracy, cannot but excite
Their feelings and I should not be sur
prised if violence was to be offered the
English visitors to the Eternal city on
this account, as was the case of the
French pilgrims in 1891.
Up to the present time the italians
have always considered the English
people and their government in sympa-
thy with the efforts they have made
toward the independence and unifca-
ton of their country, which could not
possibly have been obtained without the
disappearance OF the temporal power OF
tn pope.
Just now.'' said the speaker, .sthe
pore has insisted that foreign prelates
ard prominent Catholics should take uD
rights to temporal power and the recent
ut-eraaces of Archbishop Ireland and of
Cas dinal Vaughan amply testify to this
fact.
personally. the duke is not concerned
if he pope has lost his temporal power.
He has always been an earnest admirer
of the Italian people and of their eft
forts at unity and independence. His
present visit 10 Rome at the head of the
English pilgrimage is q kind of repara-
ton for his and the English Catholics
neglect during the holy year, in the
whole course of which no English rep
reSentatiOn of the Catholic church visi-
ted Rome and the pope.
AS to the effect of any assertion OF
the rights of the pope to temporal pow
er, it is hard to make any prediction.
Perhaps, was the conclusion of the
Rev. A. Fasanotti, the pope wishes that
some sort of foreign pressure be exer-
it Telinquish the dominion of at least
the city of Rome to the holy see 1t is
persistently rumored in Rome and
abroad that the outcome of the present
agitation will be the definition of the
necessity of the temporal power of the
pope as a dogma of the Roman Catholic
faith and in that case all Catholics will
be obliged to admit the doctrine and do
their utmost fer the return 70 the pope
of a temporal sovereignty.
English Catholics, however, do not al
present concern themselves very much
about such matters, unless, what 1 hard
~ think possible the utterances of the
Duke of Norfolk in Rome might begin
to stir up English public opinion. One

that his pet wishes have found an echo
in the words Of the most prominent

IRON TRADE CONDITIONS.
New Year Shows Increased Activity
and Capacity.

New York, Jan 10.@The Iron Age in
its issue TODAY will saw of iron Trade
conditions. The monthly blast furnace
statistics show that we entered the new
year with a considerable increase in the
active capacity The furnaces were pro-
duclng at the rate OF little over ESQ.,
600 tons per week as compared with
229,00O tons on December l. 1900, and
294, 600 tons on January l, 1900. Furnace
stocks of all kinds of iron were down to
about $4,000 tons on January 1, as COM
pared with 557 900 tons on December I
and $4,000 tons on October 1. 1900.
As yet the increase in the product has
not run its course since a number Of
furnaces have started since the opening
of the year and others are to follow It
looks therefore as though in the near
future production may slightly overhaul
ance the consumption. In fact in some
important districts there has beer a
slight increase in the stocks.
Aside from some large sales of basic
pig and OF lower foundry grades to pipe
makers in the Philadelphia district no
markedly important transactions have
taken place in pig iron.
The steel billet makers had a meeting
during the past week, but did not touch
prices Reports from Europe Indicate

Senator Plunkitt Will Introduce a
Bill in New York Senate.

Albany, N. Y, Jan. Ex-senator
Plunkitt Of Manhattan last night in
troduced in the senate a bill to punish
kidnapping of children under 16 years of
age, by fixing the limit of imprisonment
for such offense at twenty-five years.
Senator Plunkitt said he had facts in
his possession concerning the abduction
of Charlie Ross in 1874 which had never
been published. He said: The alb
ductors of Charlie Ross were New York
river thieves AIosher and his companion.
The wagon in which Ross was carried
away was hired in New York by Mosher
and driven to Philadelphia so as to pre-
vent any possible discovery of the Of
tenders. The wagon was driven about 80
miles out of Philadelphia and was there
abandoned, AIosher and his companion.
accompanied by their victim, taking
passage on the train to New York
Fear kept Charlie Ross quiet. Upon
arriving at New York Ross was taken
on one of Aosher's river craft and, final
~, to prevent detection, Charlie was
thrown overheard in the bay after being
tied to iron so as to sink and make COM
ing to the surface impossible.
THE New Yorker who let the horse
and wagon to AIosher never claimed his
property for fear of being charged with
completely.
When Mosher was shot while at
tempting to rob the van Rrunt mansion
at Bay Ridge he attempted to explain
the Charlie Ross affair, but death came
as soon as the name passed his 1ips.''

Since it is proposed to produce the steel
