The Suspense Ended.
The suspense as to what action Presi-
dent Cleveland would take on the tariff
billisended, and ended to the disgrace
of the President. His letter to Congress-
man '1'. C. Catchings, intended for the
country, is not of the character that Mr.
Cleveland’s friends expected. It is a
weak apology for an inconsistent action.
and asauoh it places the President and
his party in worse relations than ever.
If Mr. Cleveland’s declarations are true,
and we think they are, he and his party
knew their duty and failed to do it, and
this is a confession that brands them as
moral cowards, recreant to a sacred
trust. ,
Mr. Cleveland and his party received
the endorsement of the country on a plat-
form that declared protection a fraud
and robbery; and all tariff legislation, ex
cept for revenue, unconstitutional. Fur-
thermore, during the pendancy of the
bill which has now become a law by the
President‘s acquiescence, the President
gave notice that if it became a law it
would be a surrender of principle and
party perfidy. How he could have ever
brought himself to consent to a. law
which, before its passage and after ils
passage, he so emphatically repudiated.
is a problem that will be very embarrass-
ing to himself and his party, and will
provide abundant and most effective
campaign material for their political op-
ponents
This letter of Mr. Cleveland’s is the
only one he has ever written in which
there has been ambiguity and incongrui-
,ty. Elie previous public declarations have
been clear and manly. He has never
tried tododge issues or evade responsi-
bility, and because of such qualities he
won the hearts and confidence of a ma»
* jority of his countrymen—for we verily
believe it was his personal popularity
and not the party and principles which
he represented that secured for him the
overwhelming triumph of two years ago
Mr. Cleveland’s excuse for not vetoing
the bill is that it presents a vast improve-
ment to existing conditions. As “er~
isting conditions" were brought about
’ by anticipations of “a thrill for revenue
only," be virtually confesses that a tariff
for protection of great syndicates and
trusts will prove beneficial, which does
not award with his declaration that
“the trusts and combinations-Abe com-
munion of pelf -—wh0se machinations
have prevented us from reaching the
success we deserve should not be forgot-
ton nor forgiven.” And how can he b:
proud of his party organization, because
as he says, “it is conservative, sturdy
and persistent in the enforcement of its
principles," when coupled with this
declaration is his own statement that
“the millions of our countrymen who
have fought bravely and well for tnrill‘
reform should be exhorted to continue
the struggle, boldly challenging to open
warfare and constantly gunrdingaguingt
the treachery and half-heariedness in
their camp."
The worst feature about the present
condition is that nothing is settled. The
will bill is a mongrel, has no quality of
, principlelnit, isa makeshift of exped-
lency,endisnc test of revenue ideas.
As such it allorda no relief for the feel—
lnuof uncertainty, but. leaves the whole
questlori open for agitation for another
two years. Temporary benefits may ac-
eras to a few interests, but others will
suffer. Some foreign-made goods will be

A Honor of high bite. ,
The New York ‘Fonr Hundred have
most of them tried considerably harder
to get into the societyof the British
aristocracy than they have to get into
heaven. At the same time when they
were at home they rather snubbed the
Goulds—at least they would have liked
to do so. Jay Gould deserved credit for
one thing at least. He never cared a
rap for the New York Four Hundred
and never made any effort to have his
family listed in their set. Neither have
his children on their part evinced any
wildly throbbing desire to be embraced
by “society" at home.
But now comes quiet George Gould
with. his actress wife, beautiful Edith
Kingdon, and in twu months sails into
the very heart of even the Prince of
Wales' set. He sails the swiftest yacht
in America over to England, lets it bent
‘Waics’ Britannia just often enough to
make Wales feel sure that the Britannia
is the fastest boat in the world and is at
once taken into high favor by ’is royal
’ighness. Fast, yachts, fast set. The
George chums with the ladies of the
British aristocracy. Her stage training
has given her a sweetness of voice and
a high bred style that are enough to
make the women of the New York Four
Hundred turn green with envy. Hot or-
quisitc taste and plenty of money secure
for her more beautiful and artistic
gowns than even the women of the Brit-
ish royal family can boast. Thus in a
few weeks these new Goulds have been
able to get into a society which some of
our other American millionaires would
give at least one eye to enter.
l‘r-ruv inn Mixed Politics.
Somewhat to the general surprise, the
Peruviun election come off on time,
Aug. 10. It was not expected that Gou-
erul Andrus Avcliuo Caceros, tho (lic-
tntor. would permit it to do so. but
knowing well beforeth what the re-
sult would be he kindly allowed him-
self to be elected president.
It will be remembered that on the
death of President Bermndes, March 30,
Cnceres proclaimed himself dictator.
Porn had two vice presidents, first and
second, but neither of them had the
backbone to maintain his rights as the
successor to Burmudos, and while they
were thinking the matter over in their
minds Coccrcs jumped in and snatched
the prize away from both of them. May
10 he had himself elected president to
fill Bermudos‘ unexpired term. Now
he has himself elected for another full
term of four years.
Cncercs is n tremendous lighter, the
most capable soldier in Peru. He was
president of the republic from 1880 to
1800. Ho bus the blood of the ancient
[nous in his veins.

perity to the l’vruvinns. They would be
glad to have in little quiet spell, no
doubt. Whether they will get it de-
pends largely on General Pier-ole, who
is also an tin-president and a great fight—
er and is at present in rebellion with
all his might in the south of Peru

not a very good time.
Certain modern business methods have
been ripped open and their insides
shown to the public by the resignation
of a prominent officer of the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa. Fe Rhilroud company.
The books of the company showed that
a great amount of money had been cam-
cd in freight transfer in the past few
years, money enough to have paid hand-
some di'vidonds to the stockholders.
But whom was the money? A closer
examination revealed that, while the
large sum had been ostensibly paid into
the treasury in four yours’ time, $7, 400, ~
000 had been allowed to freight ship-
pers as “rebate," or discount frorn'thc
full pnynwnt of the freight rates. This
was secretly done in order to get freight
away from other companies. The man
concealed his fraudulent practices by
charging the vast sum lost in rebates to
a trumped up nccount of expenses, so as '
to make his books balance. No wonder
tho Atchison und Topeka road got into
lumping. The circumstance shows how
l'l’lny it is to doctor the books of a cor-
plii’diiull to make all appear fair and
sqnnm in the published reports. The ..
question which interests the people who
invest their savings in railway and oth-
er stocks with the hope of drawing divi-
dends on them is this, Is that kind of
bookkeeping common among grunt cor-
pornticns?
