STORY OF W.A.SMlTH
How He Has the Michigan Situation
'All Fixed Up" With
General Alger.
An Able Young Man, Of the Self
Made Brand; Who Has Filed
Down Rough Places.

Dutzding, Rashsngto,.
Washington Nov. 27.-William Alden
Smith of Grand Rapids, Mich, is certain
sure to DO senator from his state in place
of julius Caesar Burrows whose term ex-
pires March g. 1905. The death of Sen
ator Mcmillan worked revolution in that
states politics, and, in the overturning,
former Secretary of War Alger% came to
the surface, and Burrows went under
Smith is the fidus Achates of Alger. They
have it all fixed up between them. In fact,
it is related that McMillan's remains were
scarcely cold before Smith and Alger had
met and divided the empire. There is no
vestige left of the Mcmillan machine, once
all powerful. 1t was builded upon his
personality and when he died it went to
pieces. Burrows was the alter ego of Nc
MILAN. He had no strength of his own.
He held office by grace Of his chief, and
Mcmillan simply polled two votes in the
senate, not to mention eleven in the house.
Senator William Alden Smith will be no
discredit to his state. He is an able
young man of the self made brand so com
mon in American political life. Like Billy
Lorimer and a half dozen other statesmen
he began his business career backing other
peoples shoes. He got an early political
bent by serving as page in the Michigan
legislature; there he discovered how easy
It is to be statesman and he determined
to be one himself. In course Of time he
gave up shoe acking, paper selling, pops
corn peddling, train butchering and the
like occupations, and studied law. Then
he went into the business Of owning rail-
road companies and newspapers and COM
ing to congress.
There is hardly smoother or more
genial proposition in congress than Will
lam Alden Smith. He has filed down the
rough places and filled in the hollows until
he will pass for a gentleman Of taste, re-
hnement and education. Dartmouth col
lege has given him an honorary M. A. and

MYSTERIES OF THE GAR
All Kinds of News" Some of It
Palpable Guesswork, Comes
- 80 From Livadia.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 27.-It has been
learned that the recent summonlng OF Dr.
Merzhievsky, one of the foremost speclal.
lists in nervous diseases, to the soutn OF
Russia which gave rise to the report tlat
he was going to attend the car or the
czarina, or both, their majestles having
in turn been alleged to be suffering from
melancholia, was to visit .BalaklaVa,
where the Grand Duke Nicholas >Kon-
stantinovitch is detained as insane.
Some observers Of the situation do not
believe that the accession of the Grand
Duke Vladimir, uncle Of the car, to the
throne in the event of the cars abdica-
ton and the death Of his brother, the
Grand Duke Michael, the heir presump-
tive, would be unpopular and they do not
credit the, reports that the advent to SUI
prene power of the Vladimir family
would materially alter the existing state
of affairs, as the masses are ignorant in
regard to every cars true character and
the educated people attach merely subor-
dinate Importance thereto. The possible
effect Of the Draconian system under a
sterner rule on the prospects Of possible
revolutionary movement is regarded as
idle speculation. So -
The latest reports about Phillip, the
mesmerist who is said to have the czar
completely under his influence, are that
he is a former French physician, a nat
NoSAA
| in Russia for about a year, living in the
homes Of two Montenegrin princes who
married Russians. It is added that the
car granted Philip the right to practice
medicine In Russia and to wear the
epaulettes Of a military surgeon Of the
rank of councillor Of state, which equals
| that of a general.
| Finally it is asserted that the court
physician, DR.. OFT, went to Livadia and
succeeded in persuading the czar to for
bid Phillip to practice on the czarina and
the departure OF the ministers Of war, OF
the interior and finance from Livadia was
| interpreted asa sign that Philips in
| fuence was. broken. It is also said that
these ministers jointly presented a report
to his majesty discrediting Philip, that
the czarz defended Phillip and resented
what he classed as interference with his
personal affairs, but finally yielded.
This is looked upon in some quarters as
evidence that the optimistic statements
| on the subject of the cars mental con-
| dition require limitations.
| Numerous persons who have returned

assert that the car has been moody and

A HIGH SOCIETY DIVORCE SUIT,

were frustrated by the reactionists, whose
intimidation imposed a distasteful role
upon him. His majesty was also said to
be in genuine fear that his abdication
would be demanded, which was strength
ened by the sudden return of the Grand
Duke Michael and the latter's demonstra-
tive public appearances. Persons knowing
the car assert that if he was forced to
choose between the throne and domestic
happiness he would abdicate

important Enthusiastically Of Apanages

:. THE MINIS PIE .
A seigniorage Of $1,919,370 From
Coining Nickles and Pennies.

Washington, Nov. 2S.-George E. Rob-
erts, the director of the. mint, in his an
nual report says that in number of pieces
the coinage of the year has never ben ex-
ceeded, aggregating .191, 419,5O6, but in
value it has fallen in 1902 from $780,
$40, ISL to 1884, 524,67s, this. being due to the
greater demand for the, small denomina-
lions. Gold coinage dropped from $685.
065, It's to $751; 9S0,572, but the stock Of gold
bullion on hand increased from $10o,219.
493 to $124,083,712. -: 49,. ..... -.
The coinage Of silver dollars amounted
to $40, 4O2, 800. subsidiary silver coins to
$10.713569 and minor coins to $2,429, 1885,,
The original gold deposits of the year
amounted to s32,5SO.s39., Gold bars taken
for export amounted to $36,332,67S and fol
domestic consumption s14482,57S. The
gross expenditures on account Of the mint
service including loss by 'Wastage in OPP
era ting upon the metals, was $1,91O,5O3.
The earnings fro all charges and in
cidental gains, exclusive Of seigniorage
aggregated 1857, $685. The seigniorage real
lied in the manufacture of i and scent
pieces amounted to $1,919,370, and the
total seigniorage accruing on the silver
nickel and bronze coins made in the year
was $11, O13 1856, which was turned into the
general fund Of the treasury.
Attention is called to the fact that the
gold coinage Of the county is entering
almost entirely into storage, and that the
coinage of the entire annual deposits Is
unnecessary. The treasury holds about
$500, 900, 900 Of coined gold, which, the re.
port says, is doubtless more than Will be
called for in generation to come. Prac-
tically all Of the current coinage is being

wanted in bars, while for domestic CIT
culation the public prefers the treasury
