WELLER MAKES REMARKS ABOUT MR. WHRATLEY —THE EAST WASHINGTON “ROOM” ENTRUSTED To a commITTEr. The District Commissioners were discussed considerably at a meeting of the East Wash- ington Citizens’ association last night. Mr. J. W. Babson was called to the chair in the ab- sence of Dr. McKim, the president. The secre- tary read replies from Senators Spooner, Plumb and Cockrell acknowledging receipt of the reso- lutions of the association thanking them for their services, Senator Spooncr said: “I beg leave to express the gratification afforded me by the action of the a jation, The duties of the committee on claims, of which I am a member, are very exw and I have much regretted my inability to give closer attention to the affairs of the District.” Senator Plumb, in his response, remarked: thas been my desire, as a member of the subcommittee having in charze the District appropriation bill, to sec as far as possible that the appropriations which were made were so distributed as to do equal and exact justice to all portions of the city.” Senator Cockrell said that while he felt that he had simply done bis duty it was gratifying to know that the good citizons of East Washington appreciate the service.

I ORATOR. Pen Picture of Sir Charles Russell—His Method of Speaking. From the New York Tim Sir Charles Russell himself is not a specially impressive personality outside of the cour room, where he seems nothing more than a tall quiet, serious elderly gentleman; but once he din his wig and gown he becomes a le eighteenth-century type of vigor, and power. Americans can picture him almost perfectly to their mind's eye by imagining George Washington, with rather a w face and deep-set dark brown eyes and aring a black silk gown. The contour of Russell's face, with its strong chisiled features in its gray wig of horschair, is exactly like that the Father of his Country, and the habitual ravity of his countenance in repose has a marvelous likeness to one of Gilbert Stuart’s portraits, . Russell has a most flexible and melodious voice. which, without a trace of Irish ascent, i_mekes the listener feel that it is not an Anglish organ, but is instead a kind of cosmo- politan v which, alike in London, Mel- bourne and New York, would set a model of classic English pronunciation. His orator: too, is Irish only in the sense that it is not En; lish. He affects others by making himself weep, and the auditor is moved as much by sight of the speaker's emotion as by the splen- did eloquence of his diction and the pathos of his broken words. : : Naturally the immense prominence into which Russell has lifted himself all at once raises the juestion what will be done with him when Mr. Gladstone again comes into power. He was attorney-general in the last liberal cabinet. It is felt that the place is now not big enough for him, and to make him lord chancellor would be to prematarely bury him, even if he did not feel that he lacked the necessary wealth for a position in the peerage. Really the best way out of the thing would be found ky making 1a peer when home rnle 1s passed and send- ing him to Ireland as the first viceroy under the new and beneficent dispensation, tee A BALTIMORE BELLE DUPED.

BOULAD ALTH. The Sources From Which He Derives His Liberal Supplies. Cable Correspondence New York Sun. For several days this week the Sun's corre- spondents in Paris, Brussels, and London have pursued an investigation into the sources of Gen. Boulanger’s wealth. Despite the most rigid search, it is impossible to find out exactly where the vast sums which the general dis- penses so liberally come from, At present this is more extraordinary since the output is so large. As an instance, take Boulanger’s pres- ent quartersin Brussels, He has taken the whole floor in the principal hotel of the city. and actnally has amore expensive suite than Beaconsfield had when he represented Great Britain at the Berlin conference. Among the men who have supplied the general with funds was Elio, formerly director of the Louvre, who, it is known, attempted the life of his wife. Elio’s contributions are said to have amounted to more than $100,000, though some of this huge sum was collected by him from other merchants, His abrupt withdrawal from the Boulanger movement, however, made no appreciable difference in the conduct of affairs. Liberality still reigned supreme. At the time when Boulanger was elected for the Nord and Clareute Inferieure it was thought that he would immediately attain the presidency, and this stimulated contributors. Manufacturers, merchants and schemers of a thousand varieties hurried forward with money. They were anxious to gain the influence of the most promising and prominent man in France. After this flurry had quieted a bit Mr. Arnand de Lariage, formerly secretary to Gambetta, became A FOUNTAIN HEAD OF SUPPLY. The Duchess d’Uze, who is one of the count- less feminine admirers of the brave general, is known to have opened her purse strings, and I have information showing that men who were discontented with the government an IXiOUs for political preferment have contributed from all the outlying corners of France But the source of the present supply is kept secret with remarkable success, I tind that Count Dillon's estate is mortgaged up to the last dollar, and that he and the countess are living on Boulan- ger’s funds. This statement was disputed in one or two qnarters, and I have had it fully verified in Paris. Boulanger is as amiable and serene as ever. His belief in himself is abso- lute. His hair is turning gray on top of his head, but his spirits are absolutely at high- water mark, y man who attempts to describe the politi- ntiment in Paris undertakes a task of ndous complexity. But one thing is cer- n in the medley of odd and antagonistic pas- sions aronsed there by the politics of to-day; it is that Boulanger’s sympathizers are growing in numbers, ‘There is a teeling that he is being persecuted, and has been driven out of France for political ends, and his friends are building up the passion of resentment among the people t the ponderous court w trying Among the poorer people of France the name Boulanger spells hope, if not prospective heaven, During recent traveling in France I talked with porters, cab-drivers, barbers, farmers, and servants of all kinds. They are not men who make hes. pose in newspapers, or have their photographs in shop windows; but when itis time to vote they are usually nized to a man was Boulanger with them. ail.

The German papers continue to find fault with the American representatives to the Samoan conference. The Berlin Gazette sa; “The nomination of Mr. Sewall as disbursing officer of the American commissioners to the Samoan conference, together with the appoint- ment of Mr, Bates as a member of the commis- sion, warrants the supposition that the Waah- ington government does not seriously desire a friendly settlement of ghe questions concerning Samoa.” The Berlin Post says that the Samoan conference will open on the first of next month. pa ~<— .

This claim is based and conceded on the fact that no city in any country is #0 thoroughly covered by the regular circulation of & single paper as is the city of Washington by that of THE EVENING Star; and it does not rest on the I people of the District of Columbia asa body, but into their homes,—inw the families of all condl- tions, and into those of the moncy-spending as Well as the money-earning portion of the com- munity,—ip @ much larger ratio than any daily journal that can be named. By reason of the fullness, freshness and reliability of its news, local, domestic and foreign, its independent and fair treaument of all public questions, and espe cially because of its intelligent and effective de- votion to local interests, and its close attention tw matters with which the household, and partica- Jarly its laay members, are concerned, THE Stax 4s everywhere recognized and admitted to be, in every quality, the leading and favorite newspaper of the National Capital, alike in the counting- Toom, the work-shop, ond the family circle. More conclusive evidence on these points mo | Person can ask than that ailorded by the table | below. The growth of circulation therein indi- | cated, with the analysis following, clearly shows the | esteem in which the paper is held by the com | Munity to whose interests it is so steadfastly de | voted. It will be seen that, in the number of copies issued, every month in the year 1888 shows | @ handsome increase over the corresponding | month in each year given; and, as a further illus | ation on that point, it may be stated here that there has been @ corresponding advance in the number of new advertisements printed during the year. ‘Ihe comparative figures tor the four years Just past are as iollows: DAILY CIRCULATION IN 1885-"86-"S7—"88, Iss6. 1887. 1588, 23,388 235,470 26,356 24,321 26,299 27,161 25,504 26,009 27,490 24,727 23,575 27,166 24,359 25,742 26,722 23,902 25,116 27,453 25,186 24,570 26,363 24,9035 | Janvary.
