ous effects upon tho political fabric for

Tho two chambers would havo to
meet as tho nntiunal assembly to elect
u now president. II. llourgeois be
lieves that ho could control the na
tional assembly as one bodv, though
as two chambers, tho Senators against
him. He would, it is said, endeavor
to secure amendments to the constitu
tion from tho national assendjly
which would put tho cabinet beyond
fear of harm from the Semite alono
and muko it accountable to tho depu
ties, after which M. Fiiuro would bo
rc-'cleoled president aud M. Uourgclos
reappointed premier, would ba secure
In his lease of power.
The Socialist group of tho Republic
an party has issued a manifesto call
ing upon citizens and workmen to
utilize their right of universal suf
frage in tho coming municipal elec
tions so as to establish tho popular
power in tho municipalities, and
spread the Socialist spirit in tho may
oralties. Tills is preliminary to secur
ing tho election of senators. Hy giv
ing up ofllce, yt: Bottrgeois goes to
these electors with tho plea that tho
Senate opposed and overthrow his
cabinet because of Its Socialistic ten
dencies, and ho hopes thus to rally a
largo Socialist voto in tho municipal
elections.

Lonbct, Hnsson, Peytr.il, Poincarc,

that tho books of tho Daltimoro nnd
Ohio Railway show that 83,500,000 has
been tnken from tho treasury and
spent fin political purposes. It is
proposed to find out who got tho

will bo necessary to investigate the

adelphia division of the road, tho cost
of which has never been made known
to the general stockholders, but which
has been variously estimated from
Sia.000.OUO to S'O.uub.OoO, and it is pre
dicted that when tho report of tho

Ohio obtained an entrance into Phil

prominent politicians of that city will
have reason to wish that thoso who
aro now directing tho affairs of tho
llaltimoro aud Ohio had never reached

Sound Money Men llusy.
Wasiiinoton, April KM. Tho Demo
cratic sound money bureau, recently
opened here, has received most en
couraging advices from "Democratic
leaders of sound judgment, and,
basing thoir estimates on thoso re
ports, the managers of tho burenn
claim that tho sound money men will
have nt least twenty delegates from
Ohio, twclvo from Indiana and sixteen
from Illinois. Until now tho sound
money men havo in thoir estimates of
probablo strength in the convention
conceded Illinois and Indiana entire
tothofrco sliver side. One Of tho
most' interesting bits of information
given out by the sound money men Is
that four of tho Missouri district dele
gates elected at Sedalla nte not of the
radical lo to 1 order, but tro conserv
ative, and will bo ready to meet the
sound money side in a compromise.
Senator lirica announced yestordny
that ho proposed to go to tlio Chicago
convention to fight tho free silver men
of Ohio.
While Senator Gorman still pro
poses to remain away from the con
vention, there is u very gonernl belief
that ex-Secretary Whitney has, like
Senator lirlce, been prevailed upon
to attend.
Not only Is tho administration
bringing into lino tho best and strong
est sound' money Democrats, but
other plans aro being laid. It now
nppcafs that Secretary Carlisle's trip
to Chicogo was not so much to deliver
a speech ns it was to orgarizo a cam
paign against tho silver movement in
that State, which up to that tiino had
been moving forward without appar
ent let or hindrance A committee of
100 Democrats has been formed, with
Mayor Hopkins of Chicago nt Its head,
and this commlttoo is already actively
at work chocking the silver forces.
Scnntor Lindsay's mission to Ken
tucky is also said to have no othor ob
ject in view than nn arrangemont
with tho lilackbum forces in that
Slnto whereby harmony Is to bo so
cured and Blackburn returned to the
Sen ii to if the Stato Democratic con

TWO PENSION BILLS.
Which Cleveland Sat Down Upon With
Crushing Weight.
Wasiiinoton, April 23. Tho Presi
dent to-day sent to tho Senate vetoes
of two Senate pension bills. The first
was that of Charles E. Jones, a pho
tographer, which attracted considera
ble attention in tho House. It is as
follows:
"To the Senate: I return herewith
without my approval Senate bill No.
i40, entitled, An act to grant a pen
sion to Charles E. Jones. Tho bene
ficiary named in this bill was a pho
tographer who accompanied ono of
tho regiments of tho union army dur
ing tho war of the rebellion. Ho was
injured, apparently not very seri
ously, while taking photographs and
where no battle was in actual pro
gress. He was not enlisted and was
in no manner in tho military servico
of tho United Sfntcs. Aside from tho
question as to whothcr his present sad
condition is attributable to tho injury
sustuincd.it seems to me the extension
of pension relief to such Oases would
open cho door to legislation hard to
justify and impossible to refrain from
abuse. Grovor Cleveland."
The other voto was in that of the
bill for a pension to Nanoy U. Alla
bach, widow of Peter II. Allabach,
who sorved in tho Mexican war and
tho war of the rebellion. Tho Presi
dent calls attention to the fact that
Allabach made no application for pen
sion on account of disabilities during
his lifo and continues: "It is not now
claimed that ho was in tho least dis
abled as an lncidont of his military
service, nor is it alleged that his
death, which occurred nearly twenty
nine years after his discharge from tho
army, was in any degrco related to
such service." ' Ho says tlio widow
was pensioned after "hor husband's
death as tho widow of a Mexican
s Id cr, and that her caso falls under
tlo general net of IdOO. "It is pro
rosed, however." he continuos. "by
the special act under consideration, to
give this widow a pension of$J0 a
month, without the least suggestion
of tlio death or disability of hor hus
band having been caused by his mili
tary servico, and solely, so far ns
discoverable, upon tho ground that
sho is poor and needs tho money. Hor
condition is precisely covereil by ex
isting laws and, if a precedent is to be
established by tho legislation pro
posed, I do not see how tho savie
relief as is contained in this bill can
be denied to the many thousands of
widows who aro in a similar situation
and aro not on the pension rolls under
general laws."

Wasiiinoton. April li'L Inline with

Wasiiinoton, April 2-1. Tliero has
been serious friction between Secre

This, it is suid, is of so grave a nature
as to strain tho personal relations be

For tho sako of argument wo admit
it Is dull. Thon, why not havo an or

to wear too light-colored a belt upon a
dark gown. A black belt is nlways the
more kind friend, so far as
compass goes. Light ones, however,
ore comparatively safe when worn with
a light-colored gown. Then the con
trast will not be so noticeable Tho girl
with tho wasp waist may wear the
white or gilt bolt to hor heart's satis
faction, but who would exchange with
her, for she has grown awfully passo?
A charming gown of Ulac cloth, with
a rough surface; has trimmings of fine
round black cord, set on In rows. The
akirt 1b severely plain, though full of
whirls and godets and smartly stiff
ened to Bet out about tho feet. Tho
ripple Jacket opens in pointed fashion
across tho front to show a vest of white
satin overlaid with closely set
rows of black cord. Tho lower arm of
the alecvo Is also decorated with rows
of tho cord.
Cycling Dress.
Daisy Dean asks what Is the most
appropriate cycling dress, and of what
should It bo made. Answer; Tho most
sensible and bocomlng cycling costumo
Is a moderately short skirt, shirt waist,
blazer or Jacket and woll-flttlng high
shoes, or, If low shoes are worn, a pair
of trim overgalters. A corset waist
should bo worn, as, of course, the reg
ular corset Is not approved by any good
authority. One sensiblo wheelwoman
wears opera-length hoso of black, a
short petticoat of black satin, moder
ately full and buttoned together In tho
middle bo as to glvo tho effect of full
trunks. The skirt and Jacket are of
rough-surfacod Priestley cravenette.
There Is a vest of black satin provided
to wear with It, also shirt waists and
blouses, when desired. A sailor hat
and thick gloves complete what Is vot
ed as ono of tho most practical outfits
of tho season. One advantage of the
material Is that It Is strictly rain
proof. Household Hints.
Tho doll of tho period Is an Interest
ing nnd complicated creature. She has
her toilet, hor down-sitting and upris
ing outfits, her indoor and out-of-door
equipments, her carriage and her ser
vants, and recently an Ingenious de
signer has got out a full-rigged
schoolroom for dolls. There are benches
and blackboards and maps, pictures,
desks and doll school-ma'am. Nothing
Is omitted, even to tho bad doll who.
stands In tho corner In disgrace.
