EDITORIAL LETTER.

Wasmxcrox, D. 0., March 2, ’90.

DEAR Gaznrrnz—As was to have
been expected the contest for the lo-
cation of the world’s fair in 1892 ended
with a victory for that young mu—
nicipal giant of the west, Chicago.
The bill authorizing the exhibition will
now be put in shape by Chairman Candler
to harmonize with the location, and then
the mighty energies of that. wonderful
city of the laice will be put to their utmost
strain to get everything in readiness for ’92.
Giving the fair to Chicago is not a very
regrettable event.
possible excursion rates to and from
Maine, Alaska, the northernmost limits of
Canada, to Mexico,aud our people will be
given an opportunity of traveling over and
seeing vasr areas of their own country

never before enjoyed.
JOEL HARLOW.

congressman O’Neil, from the com-
mittee on the library, reported a billlast
week appropriating $5,000 to be used by
the secretary of state in removing the
remains of the Connecticut patriot and
diplomatist, Joel Barlow, from their pres-
ent resting place near Cracow, Poland,
and their rcinterment in his native town
of Bedding, and on the grounds of Gen.
Israel Putnam’s winter quarters. recently
put in order by the state of Connecticut
as a memorial park. The following brief
lllbIOl‘lCtll sketch of Barlow we copy from
Mr. O’Neil’s report: ,

“Joel Barlow was born March 24, 1754,
in Redding, western Connecticut. A stu-
dent at Yale college when the Revolution
broke out, he joined the ranks during the
summer vacations, and with two brothers
was in the spirited engagement at White
)lains. Later, was appointed chaplain in
Poor’s Brigade, New Hampshire Line, and
served till close of the war. Went abroad
in 1788. and remained there, chiefly in
France, until 1805. His "Vision of Colum-
bus,” the earliest notable American poem,
was first published in this country in 1787,
was republished in England and France,
and in the latter country especially gave
the author much prestige. He wrote the
“Hasty Pudding,” a pastoral in mock heroic
style, in Savoy in 1793. Made citizen of
France in 1792. In 1796 appointed agent
to Algiers, by President Washington, to
liberate American seamen and others held
in cruel slavery by the Bey. Spent over a
year there in constant peril of life from the
plague then raging, :iud liberated the pris-
oners. Estate in 179:. valued at $125,000.
Returned to America In 1805. and settled
on the beautiful estate of Kalorama in
\Vashington City. Appointed by President
Madison minister to France 1811. Prevail-
ed on against his will to accept. Sailed in
historic frigate “Constitution” from Annap-
olis, August 1,1811. Spent a year in a
trial of wits with the astute Napoleon, each
side trying to win the advantage in regard
to commercial privileges, and France seek-
ing to evade payment ofrindemnity for
spolialions on American commerce. At
length. when negotiations were nearly com-
pleted and almost every article of the treaty
agreed to. Napoleon suddenly quilted his
capital to embark in his disastrous Russian
campaign. A month or so later, Barlow,
at. Paris, received a letter from the Due de
Bassano, Minister of Foreign Affairs, saying .
that if he would come to Wilna, Poland, the
Emperor would meet him there and Sign
the treaty. Barlow at once set out, Octo—
ber 20. 1812,aid after great hardships
reached Wilna, November 18, to find that
Napoleon had evacuated Moscow and was in
retreat. Barlow remained in Wilna until
December 4, hoping still to meet the Em-
peror. but on that day news arrived by
courier of the bloody defeat at Beresina,and
that the ll‘rench,including the Emperor,
werein full flight. toward France. Barlow
at once set out to retreat, but became en—
tangled in the debris of the flying army, and
being further impeded by the intense cold,
and suffering from the lack of food, he suc-
cumbed at last. to the rigors of the journey
and died December 24, 1812.

If we mistake not ex-Senator E. J. Hill,
of Norwalk, is, on the maternal side, a
lineal descendant of the world renowned
Joel Barlow, of Connecticut.

FRENCH SPOLIA’I‘ION CLAIMS.

The House committee on claims has
decided to report a bill appropriating
money for the payment of all spoliation
claims that have passed the court of
claims, under the recent act of congress,
authorizing said court. to make legal
examinations and awards. It is estimated
that it will require an appropriation of
between eight and ten million dollars.
The congressional history of these claims
date back to the year 1802, when they
were first reported to the House by Mr.
Giles, in behalf of a. select committee
appointed for their investigation. They
were again reported on in 1807. Both
reports contained a favorable statement of
the facts without recommendation. Later
favorable reports were made on the
claims, and several times a bill for the
relief of the claimants passed both Houses,
but was vetoed by the President. The
claims grew out of the destruction of
American property by French vessels,
previous attacks having been made upon
French commerce by American cruisers.
At that time the whole of monarchial

I

' Europe was in arms against France, and

that country, indignant at what she re-
garded as a breach of faith and gross in-
gratitude on the part of the United States,
retaliated by the destruction of our pro-
perty on the sea. There are a large
number of the heirs of these old claimants
now living in and about Nor-walk. The
Lockwood family, represented by, Mr.
Wm. B. E., Col. F. St. John, Miss Julia
and Mr. and Mrs. George B. St. John,
havcalargc interest. The Kellogg's are
also interested, Mr. Jarvis Kellogg has
been quite active in securing his family’s
rights. Throughout Connecticut there
are many others whose claims have been
as are now being adjusted by ex-Senator

It means the cheapest

iCragin, who has the Norwalk cases in

charge has been most indefatigable in
his efforts to secure the justice so long
deferred, before the court of claims.

MISCELLANEOUS.

The Christian Arbitration and Peace
Society will hold its annual convention
here to-morrow. Justice Harlan presid-
ing. The association was organized in
Philadelphia about three years ago in a
very quiet way, but its organization now
covers nearly the whole of Europe, as well
as this country. and is sending its liter-a.
turc to millions of readers. The-object in
view is to strengthen public sentiment in
favor of a general disarmament, and this,
it is believed, can best be done through
the influences of a gospel which is based
upon the principles of brotherhood and
peace. The relations of oven the most
enlightened nations to one another are
now such that; armies and navies are con-
sidered essential branches of the public
service. Yet the day may come when all
international disputes shall be settled by
arbitration, before resorting to the sterner
arbitrament of war. And if such a day
shall come, it will owe its dawning to jus
such instrumentalities as the Arbitration
and Peace Society is now employing.

The Commissmner of Patents, Mitchell,
appeared before the House Committee on
Patents yesterday and made an earnest
plea for better acetimmodations for the
Patent. Office. He said that the office was
so crowded that it was impossible to trans-
act the public business properly—a state
of affairs not warranted by the financial
showing made by the office, which had to
its credit 3. fund of over $3,000,000 of fees
realized in excess of the expenditures. He
also Spoke of the necessity for increasing
the salaries of the examiners, to secure Ihc
retention of competent men in the service,
and for the erection of a laboratory in
which to test practically various electrical
devices.

The committee is unanimously disposed
to relieve the needs of the office, and as a
temporary measure will report a bill au-
thorizing the procurement of additional
rooms, which will he followed by another
bill, providing for the erection of suitable
buildings for the accommodation of either
the Patent Ofiicc or the Interior Depart-
ment and Land Office.

The Ohio Republicans are not waiting
for any Congressional legislation on the
new apportionment in that State, biit are
going right ahead making preparations to
carry as many districts as possible. They
declare that it Will be impossible for the
Democrats to capture all the districts they
have mapped out as safe, and that when
the votes are counted next November they
will have about as many members as the
Democrats. The Democrats express some
fear that their legislative majority has
trimmed the districts too closely for com-
fort in several instances. '

The official count shows that Mr. Roy-
burn managed to squeeze through in Judge
Kelley’s district by a majority of 8,579,
and the new Congressman has been sworn

 

in.
Editor Frank Hatton, of the Washington
Post, is most exhilai'atingly and essentially
reforming the Civil Service Reform Com-
mission. His congresssional investigation
of that legal delusion, fraud and snare
has become like the boys stoning the
frogs—awfully jolly fun for the boys, but
death to the frogs.
Pension Commissioner Raum told the
House committee on invalid pcnsrons the
other day that he could get better clerks
by selecting them himself than he could
get through the Civil Service Commission,
and it is well known that; many
bureaus in the patent office have been
seriously injured by the introduction of
civil service examination graduates in-
stead of mechanical experts.

A bill is before congress to embrace all

.the towns from Hartford to Springfield,

on the Connecticut river, in the Hartford
customs collection district.

The Senate has passed the bill for pub-
lic buildings to be erected in Danbul‘y,
Waterbury and New London. Next con-
gress, will naturally follow Meriden, then
Norwalk, if the borough and city can
agree on a common site for one building,
and then comes Stamford’s turn.

Bishop Hurst, last week, made the first
payment for the plot of ninety acres of
high ground north of and overlooking
Washington, for the purpose of establish-
ing here a great Methodist University. It
is located near Tennallytown, is 400 feet
above this city, and commands an extend-
cd view of the Potomac river and Mary-
land and Virginia on the south and east.
On the north and west is another view,
equally as beautiful, of the Catoctin
and Blue Ridge Mountains, even as far
reaching as Harper’s Ferry. It is said to
be singularly and most acceptably adapted
to educational purposes because 'of all of
the land being available for building pur-
poses—of commanding heightb, easy of
access, and well supplied with all the
natural requirements requisite for an
institution of this kind. The price now
paid is an even $100,000. It was pur-
chased eight years ago for $9,000.

Ex-President Cleveland last week sold
his twenty-nine. acres, “Oak View,"
just this side the above, which he pur-
chased about threc years since for $32,.
000, for $140,000. This shows the rapid
and phenomenal rise in property values
in Washington at the westward bound-
aries of the city.

A Senate investigating committee is per-
plexing itself with the impossibility of
trying to learn how the newspaper scribes
obtain such correct reports of all the
doings in executive session. It would be

much more to the purpOse to yield to
Senators Platt’s and Teller-’8 plan to abol-

 

 

ish the old my system of secret sessions

. ;

altogether. Throw open the doors and
let the people know what their servants
are about.

Vice-President. Morton, with Senator
and Mrs. Hale, having left for a two
weeks’ trip to Florida, Senator Ingalls was
on Friday elected president pro tempore of
the Senate.

Bernard F. Blakeslee, of Hartford, was
last week appointed stamped envelope
agent at Hartford, vice Win. L. Eaton,
democrat, removed. Eaton is the son and
only child of exSenator W. \V. Eaton,
who is spending the winter here With his
wife, as has been his custom ever since
leaving the Senate.

A novel industry has been started here
which is reported a great success. Two
ladies out of employment, hit on the idea
of opening a repair shop for gentlemen’s
garments. They rented a window in a
Milliner shop near one of the leading
hotels and put out the modern sign
“Gentlemen’s garments, neatly and reas-
onably repaired.” T he result has proved
either a revelation of an enormous bach-
elor population, or the existence of vastly
more married men than ever suspected,
whose good wives either can’t or won’t
sew on their shirt buttons, darn their

 

 

underwear and hose, and do all such sim-
ple service as a poor male biped is so
utterly helpless about. Be this as it may
it is stated that the two thrifty and indus-
trious ladies have caughtthat Shakesperian
tide at the flood, “which leads on to for-
time.”

An “Orange Tea” for the benefit of the
Newsboys and Children’s Aid Society was
given by the guests at 1,421 K street,
Saturday evening, mainly under the active
auspices of Miss Mary Ferry, who is
secretary of this worthy charity. Mrs.
Ferry helped the Misses Rossiter, (at
whose residence the entertainment “for
sweet charity's sake" was given) to receive
the numerous guests who thronged the
house. In the back parlor there was an
attractive candy table, decorated .with
daffodils and magnolias. Herc Mrs. Mar-
shall presided, assisted,by the Misses
Long, of Boston, daughters of ex-Gover-
nor Long, of Massachusetts. At a table
in one corner Miss Newcornb dipped out
orangeade and was assisted by the Misses
Mary and Fanny Childs. In the tea-room
the decorations were all in yellow, as in
the other rooms. One table had an im-
mense center piece of yellow tulips and
the other had big jars of jonquils. The
candelabra had yellow shades and the gas
glowed from beneath yellow screens.
There was orange cake, orange ice,
orangeadc, and everything appropriate to
ar “orange tea.” Mrs. Rossiter served
the colIee, Miss Harrington was at the
tea urn, and assisted by the Misses
Thomas, two pretty girls in dainty yellow
gowns, while Miss Ferry made hei‘Self
useful at the tea urn and in about every
other direction. Among those present
were Mrs. Secretary Windom, Justice
Strong and daughters, Rev. Dr. Hamlin
and wife, Mrs Speaker Reed, Mrs. Ex-
Speaker Carlisle, Executive Secretary Hal-
ford and wife and many others of Wash-
ington’s distinguished residents and'so-
journers.

“Fore dc Lawd, jedge, (lat razor did
jump up ofi dc groun’ an’ get into my
pocket,”——was the testimony of Martin
Foreman, a colored newsboy, who was
before Judge Miller Thursday charged
with carrying a concealed weapon. The
Judge stared at the bey’s excited earnest-
ness, as he iterated and reiterated his
his statement in the most solemn and im-
pressive manner, and finally replied,
“Well, Martin, your evidence is no more
remarkable than that of many others be-
fore this court evcry day.” ‘

The “first day of spring” here, was
really our first day of winter. The air
was filled with flurrics of 'Snow and a
wind of icy coldness blew throughout
Saturday night. The massed beds of
Crocus anti Jonquils, which have been in
full bloom for the past three weeks in our
parks, with all the radiant coloring of the
rainbow, have thus far, however, just;
defiantly laughed back at the cold wave
without Sign of wilt or retreat. Peach,
plum and cherry trees have been in
bloom here. for over a week. '

The shooting of ex-Represcntalive
Taulbee, of Kentucky, by Correspondent.
Kincaid, of the Louisville Times, is an-
other illustration of the methods still too
frequently resorted to by southern gentle-
men to redress real or fancied wrongs.
The difficulty arose in Kincaid having sent.
to his paper the substance of a loathsome
scandal charging the then Kentucky con-
gressman with a criminal action in’ the
patent office, which was first. published in
the New York Tribune. Taulbee, who is
a large, powerful man, has annoyed and
threatened the reporter, who is a diminu-
tive stripling and ill. ever since, it is
claimed, and on Friday roughly assaulted
him. On Kincaid saying: “I am not
armed and cannot defend myself against
you in any physical struggle. Taulbee, it
is said, hurled-out: “Well. you better
go and get armed,” and the sequel shows
that he immediately did. Kincaid is out
on bail, and the ex-congressman is nursing
his serious though not necessarily fatal
wound, at the hospital. .

PERSONALS.

Congressman Miles has so far yielded to
the blandishments of the aged women’s
rights sisters still lingering here as to be
induced to introduce their bill adding
twelve lady commissioners to the world’s
fair board of control. Mrs. Miles is out
in Colorado visiting her sister.

Henry Crofut, Esq., of Danbury; E. S.
Yergason, f Hartford; ex.Congressman
S. W. Kellogg and Mr. and Mrs. E. L.
Walsh. of Waterbury; and ex-Congress-
man Carlos French, of Seymour, were

 

week.

The announcement of the death of ex-
Congressman Mitchell, of New Haven,
was received here with sincere sorrow.
Mr. Mitchell was a socral favorite here
among a wide circle of friends.

The news of the death of ex-Senator
James E. English, at New Haven, is also
received here with sincere and universa
sympathy and grief.

Col. H. W. R. Hoyt, of Greenwich, has
returned from Fort Monroe and is now
here. '

F. 13. Rice, of Waterbury, and David
Trubee, of Bridgeport, were at the Arling-
ton yesterday.

Henry A. Bishop, of Bridgeport, is on a
visit to his parents, who are still here.

Fred Hoyt, Henry Olmstead and Mr.
and Mrs. D. Warren Fitch, ~of Norwalk,
are here. The last three are guests at
Mrs. Dr. Barbour’s hospitable mansion.

Ex-Governor Lounsbury, who was ex-
pected here last week on route south, has
been detained by reason of the death of
the vice-preSident of his bank in New
York. AS ever, B.

Military.

Speaking of the military situation, the
Farmer says :-—

What particularly interests the members
of the Fourth are the changes which will
follow the elevation of their colonel. That
he will be succeeded as the Fourtli’s corn-
mander by Lieutenant Colonel Henry
Skinner of Winsted, who is next in the
line of promotion, is conceded by all.
Who shall succeed Lieut.-Col. Skinner has
special interest f6r the Bridgeport com-
panies and the Stratford company, as they
feel it highly important that Bridgeport
should have one field officer. Major Crowe
of Norwalk, would succeed Col. Skinner
in the regular line of advancement, but he
is getting old, and is understood not to
care about remaining much longer in the
servica. Therefore an attempt will be made
to secure the lieutenant-colonelcy for this
city. The ranking captain is Captain
Belts of Norwalk, who would doubtless
waive his claims. Second comes Captain
Cornell of this city, and third, Captain
Shen'den, also of this city. Bridgeport
and Stratford command nine of the twenty-
eight votes that make. up the elective body,
Probably Norwalk's three votes would go
with them, leaving but three votes to se-
cure a majority and these can probably be
easily obtained. The appointment of Col-
onel Watson as brigadiervgcneral, gives
the Third Regiment the right of line and
Colonel Tubbs the senior colonelcy.
Orders were also issued Saturday disband-
ing the Fifth Battalion, which had become
reduced, and was considered unnecessary
for the interest of the service. The men
are honornbly discharged and any enlisted
man discharged, desiring to be transferred
to either of the existing companies in the
battalion, located in the town of his resi-
dence, may be so transferred upon appli-
cation in regular form before March 15.
Co. C, the Bridgeport company of the bat-
talion, was disbanded several weeks ago,
leaving one company in New Haven and
another in Hartford. Should the men re-
enlist tlicse will be retained as the First
and Second companies of the C. N.G.,
being attached to none of the existing
organizations.
