contributions to Tammany Hall from up-state contracting firms.The telegram Hennessy alleged he received from Syracuse relating to contributions is regarded as of pivotal importance by Mr.Whitman, who is expected to subpoena the receiving clerk in the Western Union Telegraph Company at Syracuse to determine whether the message was sent by Mc- Guire, as Hennessy testified he believed it was.A copy or this telegram was received here today by the District-Attorney.1t is understood Mr.Whitman will forward to the Attorney-General such parts of the minutes of the proceedings as relate to occurrences

7\u2014An appeal for aid to prevent the massacre of the Indian agency force at Shiprock, on the Navajo reservation in Northwestern New Mexico, was received by United States Marshal A.H.Hudspeth today from Agent W.T.Shelton.A telegram from the agent says the Indians threaten to kill the whites at the agency on Monday unless the government drops prosecution of eleven Indian outlaws indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of riot and assault.Upon receipt of the appeal, the United States Marshal telegraphed the sheriff of McKinley county to go to the reservation with deputies.Hudspeth also plans to leave for the scene tomorrow with a posse.After the indictment of the eleven outlaws, Marshall Judspeth spent three weeks at the reservation and received a promise from the chiefs of the tribe that the indicted men would surrender on Nov, 12.Thinking the Santa Fe last night.» There are about 500 Navajos in the vicinity of Ship Rock, who have never visited the agency nor acknowledged the authority of the United States.BOY COMMITS SUICIDE.Truro, N.8.Nov.7, \u2014Randolph Edwards, 15 years old, whose home is believed to be in Halifax.shot and killed himself with a revolver in the

Illswas on his way to his old home in Naples, Italy, when three men gagged him by stuffing the harmonica into his throat, took his money and tickets, and threw him from a passenger train near here.He wandered around in a dazed condition for several hours until 8.G.Whitehead found him.Whitehead removed the harmonica with a pair of pliers.\u201cMuch obliged,\u201d Mullen said, and, grinning, walked

tan, hoping thus to divert public attention.He is Bow calling for a general revision of the tariff and that too by a tariff commission, & bill to provide for Which was defeated last year by his partisans in the Bunate.* The Montreal Telegraph, of which Hon.W.8.Wielding has recently been appointed editor-in-chief, makes the following.tragic appeal: \u2014 .\u201cSir Wilfrid Laurier disagrees entirely with ! tiuteé who hold that the present alarmiing increase in i \u2018the cokt of living is an inevitable adjunct of \u2018prus- | perity.\u201d He says the increase can be stopped by { lowering the tariffs and by grappling with the trusts | Whô ¥0b the fannér on the one hand and the consumer Lon the other.In this matter it is common knowledge { that the people can iook with hope only to the Liberal Lg.It is gratifying, therefore, to see thht Sir { Wilfrid Laurier is leading his party with such splen- | did ehergy into the fight\u201d * This is about the same linguage as was used by i the Laurierites prior to their coming into power in - 1896.The pebple wets them told that \u2018\u2018they could look with hope only to the Liberal party.\u201d What did .they do?They ditl not dare to touch the tariff.They 16f¢ it where they found it, and with the exception of a few reductions made by the Borden Government ft remains the same \u2018as it was during the Laurier re- @me because Bir Wilfrid's obedient senators refused to allow the sppeintment of a tariff commission to make needful readjusturents.Been in the dyiag days of his administration he pouitively refused to take a step towards tariff reform as far as manufachitñés Weré concetned.Wijness the following from the chief organ of the Liberal party in Motitreal in ite infu of March 23, 1911 :\u2014 _ \u201cdy is perfectly well established and admitted our industries are fut im a position to bear the Miyégtricted competitio of American of Britist in- dugtsies.It is on publie tecord that all througis his téak'Sir Wilfrid proclaimed that there would be no féciproeity in manufactures.- It bas been repeatedly Affirmed that the American noyutistors were told so #hd that tiréy sssesitedd to the Cansdien position as reasonable.1t is manifest to any student of the Do- Widion's finances that we cahnot part with the re- vénte the tariff duties bring in.Sir Wilfrid has.b that what has not been done will not be These statements were repeated time and again.was Be advocacy of tariff revision.When ; Mdééd the Borden Government proceeded to make preparations fof ascemtaining in what particulars, if at, the tariff needed revising, and introduced a bill to establish a tariff eommission.the Liberals in the - Mouse bitterly oppused the measure and the Liberals in the Benate st the orders of their leaders killed the wit Now.however, Sir Wilfrid has the effrontery to sek for a tariff revision all wong the line.As for the fGuyeromaent the operations of the new Undarwond tariff are being clusely watehed, and what.éver changes are hecessary in the public inferest will be made.Sie Wilfrid's present appeal repudiates the whole Sécurd of the Libéral party betwsen 189% and 1911.RR is the swan song of a party which realizes its fast fadiug strength, and it will not derrive anybody, WATERED STOCK AND THE HIGH COST OF LIVING.It is noticeable that the investing public sees to prefer watered stocks at higher dividend promises than mors stable ones which are sure to give but a low return.The cautious few purchase stocks und Dende at 3 to 6 per cent.returns, but the ambitious many are inclined to take a chance on getting more owt of their investments.Were it practical to identify properly the decree of water in stocks and label them 8 the pure food law labels the quantity of alcohol or other undesirable ingredients in foods and drugs, it $a till doubtful if the speculative public would deduct the per cent.of adulteration, the added moisture, from them, or shun them entirely in favor of the unwatered swarities of low interest or small dividends., Many will sseribe this speculative tendeney as she.ohief cause of the high cost of living.Recklegsness of {avestment, as well as improvidenee of expenditure, taske the annual income often fall below the outgy of at least below the desire to spend.The theory of the man who eclsithed that the ers of high prices is the best time to save money, because every time you fail to buy anyifiing you dave more money, does not boum to have tales a deep bold upon the financial sense of the present gedetation.Dire necowity may indeed ontise a smoker t0 Sut down hie daily supply of two- for-a-quarter cigars, with the hope of saving a quar- ser, but he does not save R if he turns around and de it for dfinks.The only place to save it is in bank, andithat is where the average economiser fails to put it.Skimpidg on some luxuries to indulge in others, of to buy speculative stocks or invest in attractive land propotitions, is not economy in any sense of the word.= not even robbing Peter to pay Poul.It is cutting down Petar\u2019s fun a little that Paul may be a trifle more i o pu dE + income, whatever that may be, and this can be dune in eras of high prices ss well az low ones, if We do not imagine a whole lot of things necetsazy which are not, and especially if we do not chase after doubtful investments.Sound securities are ample, almost a drug on the market, because of the chase after watered ones which are more alluring in speculative promise.Eighty persons were sent te prison in Great Britain last year in default of paying fines.The Home Secetary has aunounced that a bill will be preparnd to enable such persons to pay by instalments \u2018\u2018 where thousands will thereby be spared the degrading ef- tects of serving a term in prison.Tammany is routed but Tanimany is not destroyed if, its peat political record is any- guide.dt has suffered routs in 1894, in 1901 and in 1909, but has always been able to raise ite head as bold as ever.Nor fs thie present rout likely to prove more than a temporary setback fo its-power, which is the natural result of the well regulated \u2018\u2018machine\u2019\u2019 it has buil: up, Only by repeated fights, with never ceasing vigilance will its corrupt influence be finally eradicated., The English pheasant is not a game bird but a barnyard fowl, according to the decision of thé New York custom authorities, who permitted Lady Cheylesmore to import a haf decorated with a pheasant\u2019s ttil feathers.How will some of the noble English aris tocracy regard this decision?Probably their Christmas invitations will now read: \u2018\u2018In place of our annual pheasant shoot, we have decided this year to ask you to aid us in a thorough search of the barnyard for winter-laid pheasants\u2019 eggs.\u2019\u2019 Professor Delbruck, a distinguished historian, nnd said to be the most influential publicist in Germany, has been visiting Londen.In an interview he has expressed great pleasure at the many signs of increasing harmony between Germany and Great Britain.This he attributes chiefly to the throwing together of the two countries in the diplomacy connected with the Balkan War.Englishmen, he says, appear at last to understand what it is that Germany wants.\u2018She does not aspire to any hegemony in Europe.If such an ambition is cherished anywhere, it should be looked for in St.Petersburg rather than in Berlin, What Germany does want is a certain extension of her still very sinal} colonial empire.I am encouraged to think that in future England will not only not thwart us, but will actually assist us in attaining it.\u201d\u2019 Certainly Great Britain desires no fresh territory for herself.She can well afford to aid Germany in the sequire- ment of opportunities for colonial expansion, and doubtless, when any suitable occasion arises, she will not hesitate to do so.\u2014 Comment of The Press An experiment, which will be watched with interest by military men will be made tn Montreal when seven eurps of the Canadian militia will demonstrate how quickly they could march in war time if the safety of the country should depend upon their ability to reach a designated position at a certain moment.In most of the great wars occasions have arisen when the ability to perform a forced march has had an important bearing upon the ultimate result.Such occasions were not infrequent in South Africa and later, during the first war between the Balkan State and Turkey.Still more recently, in the second Balkan contliet there were notable instances when the ability of the forces to move rapidly from place to place that Canada will ever be attacked by a land force, but it is well to know just to what extent our militia forces can be depended upon in al! sorts of emergencies.This is the plan the Minister of Militia has determined upon for the training of the Canadian soldiery : to reproduce, as far as possible, the conditions of actual warfare.Already mil.tary experts have remarked upon the great improvement in the Canadian forces since Col.the Hon.Sam Hughes took charge of the militia department.It is safe to assume that this improvement will be maintained.The Montreal experiment of Saturday next furnishes one of the heat teats of the marching ability of Canada's citizen mol- diers and as such will be watcifed with interest.\u2014Sit.Joho Standard.A special soviety has for some time been dealing with the question how to cope with suicides among young Russians and the famous Pirogiff Society of Russian Physicians, which will shortly meet in Mosvow, intends to give its particular attention to the broad aspects of this sad problem.A preparatory committee appointed by the society has ascertained the following facts.In 1902 there were twenty-three vases of suicide in European Russia to every million inhabitants while in 1510 the number has risen to thirty-five.That a real epidemic of suicide is raging among the younger geueration is proved hy the fact that while in 1901 there were twenty-four cases of suicide recorded among pupils and students of the public schools under the ministry of education, the figure rose to 266 for 1910.It need scarcely be stated that the suicide epidemic finds a specially fertile soil in the Russian prisons, where the number of suicides increased fourteen fold between 1900 and 1910.\u2014 ,.| Darkest Russia.The work of the Fizance Minister, Hon.W.T.White, has borne fruit.The centrai gold reserve ¢s- tablished by the Government at Montreal under the provisions of the Bank Act of last session has entered upon its work, and, according to advices received here, is fulBlling the object for which it was created, namely, to increase the note circulation, Deposits of about tour million dollars are reported.For every dollar deposited in gold in this reserve the banks making the deposit may issue an equivalent in note circulation.Thies is in addition to the ordinary powers and those exercised under the provisions governing emergency eireulation.The institution is designed as a factor in increasing the circulation at periods, such as those of the crop movement, when it is most needed.The gold reserve is directed by a hoard of trustoes, upon which the Government is represented by the Royal Trust Company.The other trustees are the

Clerk.THOMAS.HARDY STORY TELLE ANOTHER PRQ§E VOLUME] AFTER À PIPRREN YBARS INTERVAL |, (By E.F.E, in Boston Tronseript) | About liffeen years ago, appagently woprying gf his fame as noxelist, Mr.Hardy sought to conquer the world of pastry.For more than twenty-tive Years he had spent his time in the writing of nevels and short stories, and in \"Desperate Remedies\u201d and \u201cJudge the Obscure\u201d with the fifteen volumet that eame between them, he proved higsclf worthy his unrivaled reputation as a master of English fiction.The pame of only one other English novelist was mentioned with his, and that not be- causes of any similarity in their work, but because each in his own way had shown himself capable of revesling the soul of man through the medium of fiction.In George Meredith and Thomas Hardy, England had apparently two novelists who would beyond all doubt have a permanent claim upon the attention uf posterity.Suddenly, however, Mr.Hardy announced that henceforth he would be a poet, He hag, we were informed, or at least we were led to infer.written \u2018 his last nevel in \u201cJudge the Obscure.\u201d To be sure, \u201cThe Well-Beloved\u201d came along two years later, in 1897, but it was only the revised book edition of a five-years-old serial story, and \u201cJudge | the Obscure\u201d therefore remains, through the eighteen long years that have elapsed since its writing, his last novel.In it, as in \u201cTess of the D'Urbervilles\u201d some four years earlier, Mr, Hardy had aroused the ire of those who look only for sweetness and light inthe novel, in the drama and in poetry, but it seems scarcely likely that the fierce onslaught upon him by the advocates of the \u201cearly Victorian\u201d novel could have impelled him to seek the fame of the poet.In fact, the change in him was probably the reappearing of an early tendency, for Mr.Hardy himself says, in the condensed language of \u201cWho's Who,\u201d that he \u201cpractised the writing of verse 1860- 1868: relinquished verse-writing for prose about 1868.but resumed more recently.\u201d In these \u201cmore recent\u201d years since 1895, we have received from Mr.Hardy three volumes ot poems and the further three volumes that contain the potentous poetic drama, \u201cThe Dynasts.\u201d And to these he naively adds, in getting a list of his books, \u201csundry poems in periodicals, including lines on the death of Swinburne, 1909-1912.\" ; \\ In the face of all protests, in spite of appeals that must have reached him from cvery part of the world, Mr.Hardy has kept faith with himself.He has written, as far as we know.nothing hut verse since its writing was \u201cresumed more recently.\u201d Now.however, he has been persuaded, or he has persuaded himself, to collect certain scattered short stories and to make them into a book.On its titlepage appear the words: \u201cA Changed Man, The Waiting Supper, and Other Tales, concluding with The Romantic Adventures of a Milkmaid.\u201d and in it may be found twelve tales, the earliest dated 1881 and the latest 1900, all of them, however, doubtless being antecedent in his mind the and in their writing, to \u201cJudge the Obscure.\u201d In his prefatory note.dated August.1913, Mr.Hardy vouchsafes this explanation: \u201cI reprint in the volume, for what they may be worth, a dozen minor novels that have been published in the periodical press at various dates in the past, in order to render them accessible to readers who desire to have them in the complete series 13- sued by my publishers.For aid in reclaiming some of the narratives I express my thanks te the proprietors and editors of the newspapers and magazines in whose pages they first appeared.\u201d The stories and their dates, with one undated exception, arc as follows: What the Shepherd Saw.1881 The Romantic Adventures of a Milkmaid .188 A Tryst at an Ancient Earthwork.1885 A Mere Interlude .1885 The Waiting Supper .1887 Alicia's Diary .1887 Master John Horseleigh, Knight.1893 A Committee-Man of the \u201cTerror\u201d1895 The Grave by the Handpost.\u2026 1897 Enter a Dragoon .1899 A Changed Man .1900 The Duke's Reappearance.\u2019 Scarcely one of these twelve stories is not, or does not contain, à poignant tragedy.They are invariably the narration of tragic circumstances, (requent- ly mingled with the comic in the lives of men and women wha love, who jn- dulge in love-making.or who show symptoms of loving, Rach is an epitome oi life and love as revealed in the fateful progress uf the days or the years.Nothing too much or too little is said by the story-teller: the facts he gives are essential to the completeness of his story, and when they are given.he stops.He is always guiltless of the sin of padding: he never keeps his readers out of the secret for the sake of prolonging it hevond the length absolutely necessary for its telling.The longest story is one hundred pages; the shortest is twelve pages: in the one nothing too much, in the other nothing too little, is said.In severat of then the lapses of time are many and frequent, but they have in these silent passages of the years as strong a dramatic quality as may he found in moments of intensest passion.The reader la able to feel in them the happen of the interval.The action seems progress as speedily a9 if unity of time were punctillioualy observed.At in his long novels, Mr.Hardy 19 still here the historian of Wessex, and familiar names reappear to readers | QUEBEE CHRON: A MIDERN MIRACLE He Hed Booms 3 Years.and Doctore

the\u201d gentleman referred.to lives at 101 Pelofmier Avenue, Montreal and Bay lived theie for yea.s.For twenty-five years he \u2018has had eczema où big\u2019 Hands and wrists, The disease fret

He tried it.just as he had tried hundreds of re- mediez hefore.But he soon found out that Zam-Buk was different.Within a few weeks there were distinct signs of benefit, and a little perseverance with this great herbal balm resulted in what he had given up all hope of\u2014 a complete cure!

In gvery story the oc important, tit.jt never, exceeds the.characters of the incidents in importance.Many story-tellers subordinate one to.the other; Mr.Hadry makes them all £qual,.and thereby receives the added interest and arouses the continuous curiosity of his reas rs.In the story called by the somewhat meaningless title, \u201cA Mere Interlude,\u201d is disclosed the charagteristic Hardy methods.It involves grim tragedy and comedy that is scarcely less grim.A school-teacher who dislikes her profession succumbs to the importunities of a suitor many years older than herself, and to the arguments of her parents, and agrees to marry him.The wedding arrangements are made.she sets forth from school for nome at tne last moment, is delayed on the way, fails in with an old-time sweetheart, marries him on the impulse of the no ment, and while they are on the way to make confession, he is accidentally drowned.The next day, her marriage with her elderly suitor takes place, and a month later she tells him her secret.| Instead of the wrath she expects, he is in great spirits, tells.her that he is a widower with four ignorant children who must be educated, \u201cAnd so | thought that by marrying a young schaol-mistress | should get some one he said.Thus by the irony of fate Raptista Trewthen became not a teacher in a school, but a teacher in her own household.None but Mr.Hardy could tell such a story as this wath the combination of seriousness and sportives ness necessary to its acceptance as a i true tale.As always, Mr.Hardy is an adept at the apt phrase which expresses thaught with Shakespearean compactness.Again and again his few words carry with them an astonishing clarity.\u201cThough it had not failed her, there wan.nevertheless, no great ardour in Christine's bearing\u2014ixerely the momentum of an antecedent impulse.\u201d \u201cThis relic was now as dry as brick, and seemed to belong to a pre-existent civilization.\u201d \u201cTheir wills were somewhat enfeebled, their hearts sickened of tender enterprise by.hape too long deferred.\u201d (From.er carliest young womanhood, civiliahs, however promising.had no chance of winning her interest if the meanest warrior were within her heroism.\" And these sentences display his skill at his visualize ing nf à scene: \u201cA dense white fog hung over the valley of the FKxe, ending against the hills an either side.But though wothing in the vale could be seen from higher ground, notes of differing kind« gave pretty clear indica tions that bustling Hfe was going on there.The audible presence und visual absence nf an active scene had a peculiar effect above.the fog level.Nature had laid à white hand aver the creatures ensconced within the vale.as a hand might he laid over à nest of chirping birds.\" \u2019 Mr.Hardy calle these tales \u201cMinor Novels.\u201d and he is right.Yhey are novels in little, the fragments of life out of which longer novels sre made, While we are sore that he att) prefers to call himus)l & poet, we are nevertheless grateful to thm for bringing these tales together, They are meet compenions for \"Waspay ales,\u201d \u201cLife's Little lronies\u201d and \u201cA Group of Noble Dames.\u201d TRIES TO STIR UP LITLE EXCITEMENT GIRL BINDS AND GAGE HER: SELF ANP RETA FIRE TO RUBBISH NEAR.Chicago, Nov.7.\u2014Gertrude Hanson, 16 yeary ald.whe teday was found bound 3nd saneed in the cellas ef the hone of @ V.Jaune, with « pile af rubbish byrning near her, coptessed to the police that she had get fire tu the rubbish and bound and gagged korsoli She said her objeet was to cause à little excitement.The girl was, uninjured by the blaze, pithough nearly unconscious from smoke.The palice were called by Mrs.Fahne, wko smellgd the amake and discovered the girl.After she had been released Migs Hangon told the police she had been attacked by a pyramaniac, whom she had discovered tiring the house.Ta prevent an eut- cry the man had bauid her and left her near the fire, she said.TESTE DYING AMID THOUSANDA.\u2014\u2014\u2014 Huge Hoards Left by Misers Who Lived In Squalor\u2014\u2014 The miser presents à strange problem to the student of human nature.Surpounded by dirt and possessed of wealth sufficient net merely to provide the necessities of life but such luxuries as only the rich can afford.It was enly recently that the discovery was made at Hull (Eng) of two women, both possessed of considerable means, who died amid the utmost squalor and poverty.Both had their abode in hovels in some vile slum, and ate just sufficient food to keep them barely alive, When ane died her hovel had to be disinfected.and upon the paper of the room being stripped from the wall, a mouse-nibbed bankbook which showed the possessor to be worth £500, was discovered.The case of the other woman was even more extraordinary, She died of malnutrition \u2014 and yet was worth £2,000! A short while ago the authorities at St.Petersburg were engaged in distributing the vast sum of £100 000, which had been bequeathed to vatious churches and monasteries in very singular circumstances.No fewer than 200 churches and other institutions benefited through this money, which had been hoarded up by an old woman \u2014 an eccentric character who might have been drawn botli by Dickens and Balzac.Her name was Madame Kolobova, and when she died it was thought she was 3 pauper.She was, indeed, buried as such.Some talk as to her having saved a fabulous hoard led, however, to her rooms being searched.In almost every nook and cranny, pockets tightly bound up were discovered.Those that did not contain banknotes were filled with valuable share certificates of title deeds.In previous year Madame Kotobova had lived with her sister.Every Sunday she received any beggars or priests who might care to call, and gave liberally to both.Upon the death of her sister, she changed her life completely; became a recluse, developed miserly habits.For twelve years she never ppened a door or a window.During this perjod she lit jin the house who weuld teach \u2018em,\u201d | one fire only.Her house looked like a prison, and she had double alarm- bells on each door.i Those who lead strange lives oiten j die strange deaths.A woman Tet cluse named Emma Pritchard was i found, some time ago, at her house in Cheltenham street.Lramley (Eng).stretched out on a white sheet spread carefully over the carpet and attired in a white nightdress with a white pillow-slip aver her head.By her side was a bottle, the contents of which\u2014 ammonia\u2014she had taken.For years she had lived in the most miserly fashion, and yet it was discovered that she hud £300 invested in Leeds Corporation stock,\u2014160 in a Leeds building society, and £30 jn the Posteffice Savings Bank.ANGRY WATERS When They Reach the Wonderful \u201cOil Spot\u201d Ofi Sabine Pass.\u201cSTILLED.A (freak of nature never fully de scribed is the wonderful \u201coii spot\u201d, sit: uated about ten miles south of Sabine pass, into which lows the Sabine river to the gulf of Mexico.The river forms j the boundary between the states of | Louisiana und Texas.The \u201coil spot\u201d | extends two miles along shore and sea- | ward about three-quarters of a mile.A (storm from the northeast, by way of { cast to southeast, has a rate of from 00.to 700 miles across the guli of : Mexico into this mystic haven.!
