The payroll is heavier than it ever was; the expenses since April exceed those under the administration of Maj. Murphy ‘for the same period in 1894 by nearly $1.000 a month, That this excess of expenditure has not been devoted to the improvemerit of the city is evident to all citizens.

An additional reduction of 385. 000 in the 6 per cents Was made on Jan. 1 ot this year. There is now a remnant of only $348,000 of 6 per cents, which will be met this year. The remainder of the State debt bears only 3% per cent and amounts to a little over $5,000,000, a light ‘burden for a State with the wealth of Missouri to bear. The condition of the State finances with a constantly reducing debt at low inter- est, is a pleasing contrast with that of the Federal Government, with a con- stantly increasing debt.

Her only offense ig that she prefers the trees to the tenements and the compan- ionship of the gentle squirrels to that of struggling men and women. As she ex- pressed it to a reporter,-she does not like to live in houses because the hot air smothers her, and the smell of the trees pleases her and she loves the squirrels. There Seems to be no room in New York for any one who will not live as other New Yorkers do and who prefers the smell of the trees to thdt of the gutter, the free air of heaven to the hot dir of a house, and the barking of the squirrels to the chatter of wise men and others. Mary is an enemy of society and a dis- cerning judge has sent her to the work- house for eighty days to ponder over her sins, The case of poor Mary is typical. She is the child of nature, who is out of place in the artificialities of high civilization and is crushed by the mighty engine of convention. Society has no mercy for those who revolt against its hot air and stone walls and binding chains and sends with the auriferous image set up in Wall street for the American people. * Hardly any leap year has ever come up to the fbashful man’s expectation, but 96 may make a good record, nn.

The American built bicycles have made a most satisfactory showing at the Salon du Cycle in Paris, their lightness and neat finish making them greatly appreciated. The fact is that American’ bicyclists, much as they enjoy their wheels, have no idea what they lose in not having such roadways as France affords. CAUSE FOR EJECTION.

(At the old Cathedral here yesterday the ceremony of conferring the beretta on Cardinal Sa toll was accomplished under circumstances of remarkable splendor. At the altar of this cathedral the first Catholic priest ever or- dained in America took his vows, and the first bishop ever elévated to the dignity on this side of the Atlantic put on his episcopal insignia upon the very spot where Mgr. Satolli was crowned Prince of the Church of Rome. In the audience were many of the most prominent ecclesiastics, diplomats, legisla- tors, educators and ts in erica. Archbishops, bishops and eminent profes- sors represented the Catholic Church in the tion. The Vice-Pres t of United States and numerous Congressmen, Senators, Judges and minor officials were present. Eminent Catholics outside the priesthood came many miles to see the cere- mony and to lend impressiveness and im- portance to the occasion by their presence, Diplomats of high degree came to re t foreign Governments and show the re- spect in which they hold the church which does honor to Satoill, In the street procession were Archbishops and Bishops in their rich vestments, mem- bers of the Catholic University facult priests, — gowned like scholars, narlans and students. When Cardinal Gibbons reached the altar he bowed low to Mgr. Satolli, who returned the salutation, and each, accompanied by his assistant priest and deacons of honor, sought the throne upon which he was to rest during the greater pert cere- mony. Then Marquis ripanti, clad in the scarlet, * and white uniform of the noble guard wearing high top boots and sword and helmet on, vanced from his post near the center of the altar ane Se 0 Ar- posited on a table documents the al- dinal Gibbons the and the ber y alling bac On th took — a ide stood of New Y Papal brie the University at W 4 — Pathos Magnien, an Bry og ores cody Bites | Mar.

VOLUNTEERS KILLED, — they Were Crushed by Falling Walls While Fighting a Fire. CHICAGO. IIL, Jan. 6—Fire caused the loss of two lives, the injury of one man and the destruction of two houses with their contents at Wheaton last night. During the progress of the flames the greatest alarm was felt by the residents. There was a strong wind blowing. Every one able to assist turned out and aided the single hook and ladder company, the only fire organization, to fight the fire. It was due to the brave resistance to the encroach- ment of the flames on adjoining houses that the volunteer fire department now mourn the death of two of their number. In fight- ing the fire they were caught under a falling chimney of one of the dwellings and were crushed. The dead are: ALBERT GRANT, aged 35 ARTHUR VERNON, aged a publishing house in Chica iN Showers, proprietor of a meat market in Wheaton, was injured. GEN. HARRISON'S MARRIAGE.

But it is known that Jamison was chosen to carry the plans into execution, and there Was to be an uprising of Uitlanders (aliens) at Johannesburg in cd-operation with Jami- son, and that the failure of the expected revolt is what caused the plans of the con- spirators to miscarry and jed to the crush- ing of Jamison’s expedition so quickly by the Boers: To-day's dispatches show that on last Tuesday there was intense excite- ment at Johannesburg, peopled and con- trolled by Uitlanders, the people hu ng into the town from the mines and outly~ ing country. The Central Committeemen constituted themsélves a provisional Gov- ernnten for the towm and annouced that it against any body of Boers. The provisional Government was lished in the Consolldated Gold Fields ing and three Maxim guns were placed in advantageous position about it. Dr. Jamison, at that time, was hourly. ex- pected at Johannesburg. Crowds of people surrounded the Consolidated Gold Fields building, and the work of recruiting was in full swing. Numerous le left the town during the night in bands of fifty each. Later the new Government sent the fol- lowing communication to Sir Hercules Rob- inson, the Governor of Cape Colony: We ve absolute information that a large body of Boers has been commanded to immediately attack Jchannesburg and shoot on sight all who have been concerned in the agitation. Affairs are so critical that we ask you to intervene to protect the lives of 3 who have long agttated legally thelr The new Government then sent an ulti- matum to the Government of President Kruger, who proposed a conference at Pretoria on the following day, Wednesday. It was here that the conspiracy failed. The denutation of. Uitlanders went to Pre- toria and was received by Kruger, who made them that he would take off the duties on foodstuffs and would sup- port equal subsidies for the schools of al! languages. He would also, he said, advo- cate the desired change in the franchise. This seems to ae fully sausfled the Uit- who declined to further carry out the purposes of their leaders and thus left — 2 to fight his battle with the Boers Jamison’s expedition encountered the Boers Wednesday and the first fight fol- lowed, in which the freebooters were de- feated and compelled to retreat. Jamison’s column, originally about 700 men, moved southward, fighting hard all the way throughout the night and event- ually reached Vlakvontein, six miles from Johangesburg, on Thursday morning, when the cOlumn was completely surrounded by a force of 4,800 Boers. In spite of this, Dr. Jamison’s followers fought stubbornly until noon, when all their cartridges were ex- hausted. In addition they had not tasted food for twenty-four hours and were worn out with fatigue. But the white flag was not hoisted by Dr. Jamison’s orders. It is ‘Known that Dr. Jamison expected 2,000 Uitlanders to join him at Krugersdorp.

STANLEY AND LABOUCHERE. They Explain to Their Misled Country- men the Attitude ef the United States. \ Special to The Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—The Journal this morning has the, following London cable from Julian Ralph: At last the English seem likely to understand that the United States are justified and in earnest with re- The New York correspondents of the London news- papers led England to believe that we were not united in support of President Cleve- land and that he was not in earnest. Eng- land was deceived into the belief that it was half politics and half bluster. Two English- men here at home, however, may lead the way to a more intelligent understanding. Thése are Henry. M. Stanley and Hengy Labouchere. Stanley testified to American earnestness and hostility last November. He was the first man to declare that there is a war spirit against England. Now inter- viewed here he says: “If this unfortunate migunderstanding with America be not quickly adjusted on an amicable line, it is likely to cost us dear. Upon the Monroe doctrine we heard an ex- pression of true American feeling, unbiased altogether by Irish faction hatred. Far from the President's message being an electioneering dodge, suddenly conceived, I am satisfied that it had long been pre-deter- mined, and was practically necessiteted as voicing the lgng-restrained expre n of the national conviction.” : Stanley says that while in America, where he expected to see a warmth of friendliness for England, he found only resentment and bitter hostility. And now comes Labouchere, in the cur- rent issue of Truth, and tella the English that we Americans have right and justice on our side. He is shrewd enough to discount New York and Wall street judgment and says the opinions of jurists and dead men on the Monroe doctrine are equally value- less. He says the a is how living Americans understand it. He declares 2 if Venezuela has a right to the land in dis- pute, and if Engl takes it, she does ac- quire additional territory in contravention of the Monroe doctrine.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—A special to a local paper from Washington says: A more im- portant issue than that over the Venezuelan boundary may be raised between the United States and Great Britain if recent rts from Nicaragua shall be confirmed by later developments. The. substance of these re- ports, sustained by important evidence, is that British interests are reaching out for the control of the Nicaraguan Canal, and that the Government is being urged to an- nul t charter of the existing corporation. The reports of British intrigue in Nicaragua which have deen sent to the State Depart- ment are likely to receltve serious attention before the transmission of the report of the Nicaraguan Commission to Congress and may give a sensational turn to the expected special message of the President on the subject. The United States, in case of controversy, ight be obliged: to take its stand upon pons ang grounds, and to object to any such interference in Central American af- fairs on the part of Great Britain as it might consider proper on its own behalf. If a British syndicate should persuade the Nicdraguan officials to annul their con- cessions to the American Company and make new ones to a British compahy, a question would be presented different from that presented in Venezuela ac g to President Cleveland’s definition of that 8 in the particular that the United tates might feel called upon to interfere without regard to the attitude to the exist- ing government of the country affected. he United States, it is believed in such a case, would not permit the Monroe doc- trine to be construed so narrowly as to jus- tify the increase of European power in Central 9 contrary to the interdsts of the United States, even with the con- sefit of the officials who temporarily. might the policy of the country in which such aggressions took place. If the efforts of British. capitalists to secure the annulment of the American char- ter seem likely to produce tangible results, representations of a serious nature are like- ly to be made by the State Department to the governments of both gs and Great Britain against extension of British influence in the construction of the canal. icaragua now without a diplomatic resentative in the Unit hh reports of ts 1 tate can consular o the. r aritime Canal ca LOST HER MN op. ‘Mrs. Seibels of Georgia Found Wan- dering in London. wandering in the streets here.
