The application. of the New England Terminal Company for a Receiver is the sensational news of to-day. The full particulars are given in another column of this issue of the ])AILY GAZETTE. From this report, it would seem that our pet Wilson Point transportation enterprise, that so recently budded out in such :1 burst and, efi‘ulgence of glory. is but another hapless victim of the “all-devouring Consolidated Mo- nopoly.” O. Death to Our Elms. It is really sad to look about our beautiful town and see the great num- bers of its ancient elms now in the sere and yellow leaf, from. the pestiferous flying bug and worm. Worse than this large numbers are dead and dying, grubs attacking the roots of these no- ble trees. There are four dead on the southern end of Belden avenue, five dead and dying on the Church Green, a grand old tree, for years one of the finest elms in town, at the corner of Cross and River street, that has shel- tered and shaded the Brady homestead for near a century, is dead, and so on all over the town and as we learn, throughout New England. In Boston they are trying the plan of introducing poison into the circulation of the sap, hoping thus to kill the bug and slug pests. In other localities fire engines are in use to spray the-foliage with poisoned decoctions. -~—.. 9.. Harrlty Agni . Mentioned. NEW YORK, July Iii—The "Sun says: “It is generally understood that William F. Harrity, the present secretary of state of Pennsylvania, will be the chairman Of the Democratic national committee. Mr. Har. rity has been in the city for a couple of days. He called on William 0. Whitney and tried to show him why it would not be possible for William F. Harrity to become chairman of the committee. Instead of ac‘ complishing that object, however, he learngd why William F. Harrity could not very well decline to serve. Among other things he ascertained that both Mr. Cleveland and Mt. Whitney wished him to take the place.” July 20 the Notification Date.

THE MEMEMEEE MOVES Strange Action Of Washington’s Great Stone Shaft. IT SWINGS ROUND A CIRCLE Custodian Hawkins Also Declares That the Gigantic Memorial to the First President Is Growing Taller. True American Progress. WASHINGTON, July l5.——There is consid- erable speculation in Washington just now over the statement that the Washington .monument, 555 feet high and 50 feet square at the base, is perceptibly lying from the perpendicular. The matter has been in- vestigated by an interview with Custodian Hawkins, in charge of the shaft, who made a. most interesting statement and explana- tion of the situation. He said, “The men- ument is inclining for a. fact, but it has done that ever since it was first built, and the direction is just now to the southwest.” Unpercelvable to the Naked Eye. Mr. Hawkins took from his desk some rolls of drawing paper. Each sheet had on it a. circle of about ten inches diameter and divided by cross lines inl‘b quadrants. Down in the southwest quadrant there was a suc- csssion of pencil lines, like a thin cobweb, interspersed with small red figures. “That,” said he, “is a chart of the move— ment of the monument for the month. In- side the shaft there are two plumbllines. One in the north gives the inclination of the monument to the east or west, and one in the west gives the movement to the north or south. The lines are heavy wires, both inclosed in metal casings to keep them from being disturbed by any outside influence. “The weights are large pieces of lead, immersed in thin Oil to keep them steady against any minor vibrations. The move- ment of the shaft is really so minute as to be unperceivable by the naked eye, and there are two telescopes with slow moving screws that can be brought to bear on each plumb line, so that the variations of the line along the scale behind it can be. read to the one-thousandth of an inch. A Regular Yearly IMovement. “The . shaft has a slow and tolerably reg- ular yearly movement which seldom ex- ceeds one-hundredth of an inch. It travels around in a circle, and now you see it is down in the southwest. Then there is also a daily movement, and in the daily move- ment, too, of the shaft there is also a. some- what'circular movement, swinging around from day to day between one one-thou- sandth and one one-hundredth of an inch each way. A strong, steady wind has some ‘minute effect upon the inclination Of the shaft, but the principal movement comes from the efiect of the sun’s heat upon the stone. . Growing Higher Too. “There are level readings taken from time to time to determine whether or not the foundation of the monument has sunk. Strange to say, the last readings show that the foundation has raised instead of lower. ing. The movement is measured in thou- nndths of an inch, and is wholly impercep- tible to anything but a leveling telescope, but it is reassuring for the patriotic mind to know that the monument is growing, and future generations may have reaSon to feel quite proud of its progressive spirit.” Etna’s Lava. Pouring Forth. ROME, July 15,—The outbreak of the vol- cano of Mount Etna. is increasing in vio- lence. Streams of lava pour down the mountain side and several villages will be destroyed. The craters are all active. BRIEF MENTION. The negroes have made no further out- break at Paducah, Ky. An armed sheriff’s posse is guarding the city. S. F. Leake has filed additional affidavits upon his charges of favoritism in the pneu- matic mail tube matter at Philadelphia. SO great is the probability of the anti- options bill passing the senate that its op- ponents will attempt to defeat it by an early adjournment. A bomb at Sera, Province of Tarragona, Spain. drove out the customs oflicers and sacked the town hall. The troops dispersed the riOters by firing on them. The French chambers were prorogued. Lightning struck the stone residence of Charles Sheller, in Chester county, Pa., and three of the inmates were stunned. ‘ GovernOr Pattison signed the application for the pardon of John Lawless, ‘of Clear- field county, who was convicted of assault and battery. Mrs. Astor states that her husband is. snaking rapid progress toward recovery. Senator Brice emphatically denied the published statement that he would succeed himself as chairman of the national Demo- cratic committee. Willie Purdy, aged eleven, of Newark, was drowned while trying to rescue his brother, who had fallen into a pond. The brother was afterward saved. The inquest at London concerning the death of Matilda Clover, the girl whose body was exhumed on suspicion that she died of poisoning, has resulted in a verdict of willful murder against Thomas Neill. The pension appropriation bill carries $146,757,350. This is an increase of $11,932,- 284 over the bill as it passed the house, and 811,542,565 more than was appropriated by the last house. John Jarrett, W. C. Cronemeyer and William Banfield are in Washington pre pared with figures to defeat the Shively free tin plate bill in the senate. The finance committee will not report the bill. It has been determined by the. leading Republicans of West Virginia to run Sec- retary Of War S. B. Elkins for governor this fall. The first series of the National league championship closed with 'Wednesday’s games. The Bostons won with comparative ease. ' Executive Commissioner Woods made a report to the Connecticut World’s fair man- agers showing that 125 Connecticut firms have already applied for space. Hot slag was dumped into a swamp near the Pennsylvania Steel works, Harrisburg, causing an explosion. Louis Hunter, a col- ored man, was killed and two other men were seriously hurt. . . Ex-Senator H. W. Blair has been brought 'into the field as a candidate for the Repub- lican congressional nomination in his dis- trict. " - o The New Haven weather bureau has been made one of the first order. ‘ It has practically been determined by the Chicago managers of the fair that they can not accept the $5,000,000 loan coupled with the Sunday closing and general liquor pro- hibition clauses. .
