An American Consul Figures in a Polynesian Romance. A special from San Francisco to the New York Tribune today says: “From Tahiti comes the news today that J. Lamb Doty, American consul to the So- ciety Islands, has married a half-caste girl and has set up housekeeping. The girl beasts the name of Mueva Turnero Raurl, and she is said to have brought a neat dowry to her husband. She fs only sixteen, and Doty first met her a few months ago on the beach of a neighboring island, v here she was trying to bring to shore her capsized canoe. Young Doty induced her to elope to another island, where he mar- vied her according to the simple native formula, which merely requires that the contracting parties eat together and make a number of pledges. No wedding ring is required, no cake, no clergyman’s fee and no lcense. When Doty returned to ‘Tahiti with his bride he rented a house and the pair are now living in South Sea Island style, with a good stock of cocoanuts and taro root. The girl’s guardian appeared soon after they set up housekeéping and wanted to take her back to his house, but Doty showed him this would be un- wise, and he consented to let her remain. Young Doty was not of age when Cleve- land appointed him consul at Tahiti nine years ago. Since then he has been a South Sea masher, for he has been engaged to two island princesses, but in each case the reiatives prevented marriage. Doty is well known here and in Washington, where he has influential relatives. He was a bright boy, who first started as a page in the Heuse, but since he has been in the South cs he has developed many eccentrici- ties.” ———-+0+____. Damaged the Hotse. Witnesses appeared in the Police Court today and told of the condition of Benj. min McConnick’s house on Morris avenue, Anacostia. Dennis McDonald was charged with being responsible for the broken win- dows, painted plaster and injury to the small house. Louis Simonds, an alleged accomplice, gave evidence against McDon- ald. He said that they were out drinking and After McDonald had told him of his alleged bad treatment concerning the house he took part in the work of damaging the house. M McDonald, it appeared, was employed to plaster the house and he was going to pur- chase it.

IN LINCOLN’S CABINET a ees Mr. Hugh McCulloch, who has been ex- tremely iil for some time from a compli- cation of the diseases attendant upon old age, died shortly before 3 o'clock this morning, at his country residence, Holly Hill farm, in Prince George’s county, Md., several miles from Washington. He had been in-a comatose condition for several hours and passed away without regaining consciousness. There were present at the final moment his devoted-wife, his daugh- ter, Mrs. Yale of New York, and the two sons, Charles and Frederick. Miss Mary McCulloch, who was traveling in Europe when her father’s health took such an aiarming turn for the worse, is expected le arrive today in New York from Liver- pool. Lr harles G. Stone, Mr. McCulloch’s physi ed that the immediate cause of 4d was ccma resulting from kidney disease and a hypostatie condition of the lungs. The arrangements for the funeral have not been completed. Only OGicinl Cognizance. Under the law the only official cognizance that can be taken of the death of ex-Sec- retary McCulloch is the half-masting of the flag over the building where he served his country so well. The statutes bearing on this general subject are found in the legislative, executive and judicial appro- rriation bill, approved March 3, 18%. In that act it is provided: “That hereafter no building owned or used for public purposes by the govern- ment of the United States shall be draped in mourning, and no part of the public fund shall be used for such purpose. “That hereafter the executive: depart- ments of the government shall not be closed as a mark to tfe memory of any deceased ex-official of the United States.” Sketch of His Life. Mr. McCulloch was born in Kennebunk, Me., eighty-six years ago December 7 last, and entered Bowdoin College in 1824, at the age of sixteen years. Ill-health caused him to give up his studies two years later be- for> graduation, and he began to teach school, continuing this avocation until 1829. Taking up the study of law at this time, he devoted himself diligently to it, and in 1832 was admitted to the bar. He quickly per- ceived that his native town presented few opportunities for-a career, so in 1833 Mr. MeCulloch moved to the west, and settled in the then smali town of Fort Wayne, In- diana. His ability and comprehensive in- telligence were quickly recognized here, and in a little more than two years after his ar- rival he was made cashier and manager of the State Bank of Indiana. It was in this position, which he held until 1856, when he became president of the institution, that Mr. McCulloch cultivated the fertility of his resourceful powers as a financier, which were one day to be called into requisition in a national crisis, and he become known far and wide as a shrewd and conservative business man, who was as far-seeing as he was careful. In 1863 Mr. McCulloch was called from the bank presidency to become controller of the currency under Secretary Salmon P. Chase. The office had just been created by Congress, and upon Mr. McCul- loch devolved the difficult duty of organiz- ing the bureau and putting into operation the national banking system. The reputa- tfon he had gained in Indiana stood him ‘n good stead in his new place. Through his influence and efforts the managers of state banks and other large financial institu- tions were induced to become national banks, and the system flourished under hi: direction from the outset. In March, 18¢ Secretary W. P. Fessenden, who had suc- ceeded Mr. Chase when the latter was ele- vated to the chief justiceship, resigned, and President Lincoln appointed Mr. McCulloch Secretary of the Treasury. The latter was at first disinclined to accept the enormous responsibility that his promotion implied, but upon the assurance of President Lin- coln that he would be responsible for any mistakes that might be made Mr. McCul- loch entered upon the duties of Secretary. At that period the government was in a critical state of financial embarrassment. The immense obligations brought upon it by the war did not only have to be taken care of, but there were enormous demands to be met instantly with an almost empty treasury to depend on in the emergency. The salaries of nearly 500,000 soldiers and sailors were due, and in order to pay them it was necessary to negotiate additional loans and there were besides othér press- ing demangs for money that jt was impera- tive to meet. Secretary McCulloch success- fully raised the money necessary to re- lieve the government of its dilemma and in six months from the time he became secretary the reduction of the national debt was begun. He also converted a quantity of short-time obligations into a funded debt and in two years the financial affairs of the treasury were in a satisfac- tory state. Secretary McCulloch remained in office until 1869, and in 1 went to London, where he was engaged in the banking busi- ness until 1878. In October, 1884, upon the retirement of Mr. Greshai the present Secretary of State, from the secretaryship of the treasury, Mr. McCulloch was again appointed Secretary of the Treasury and remained in office until the end of Presi- dent Arthur's term. Mr. McCuiloch’s ideas about the manner in which the financial affairs of the gov- ernment should be managed may be abund- antly gained from his annual reports. In these, during his first incumbency of the office of Secretary, he advised a steady re- duction of the public debt, the retirement of legal tender notes and the speedy re- sumption of specie payments, urging that a public debt of permanence might prove dangerous to a republic. He did not be- leve the government under the Constitu- tion had the power to make its own paper notes lawful money, and declared that pa- per currency should be furnished by the national banks Mr. McCulloch was a voluminous writer on financial and economic subjects for magazines and newspapers, and is the au- thor of “Men and Measures of Half a Century,” which is in the nature of a re- view of the social and political changes during that period, from 1835 to 1885. He was a man of courtly and affable manners; warmly hospitable and kindly and charita- ble to a degree. Since his retirement from active life he has resided in thfs city, on McPherson square between I and K streets, and upon his farms in Maryland, just be- yond the District line. How Lincoln Made Him Secretary. The circumstances of Mr. McCulloch's appointment to President Lincoln's cabinet were recently graphically recited by Mr. McCu€och himself, and the story. is in these words: “A day or two after his sec- ond inauguration Mr. Lincoln requested me, by one of his messengers, to call upon him at the White House at some time dur- ing the day, which I did in the afternoon. He was alone, and as he took my hand he said, ‘I have sent for you, Mr. McCulloch, to let you know that I want you to be-my Secretary of the Treasury, and if you do not object to it I shall send your name to 3 THE OFFICIAL WEATHER MAP.

It was an office that I had not aspired to and did not desire. I knew how arduous and difficuit the duties of that department were, and © place had been offered me in New York which it would have been greatly for my interest to accept. I hesitated for a moment, and then replied, ‘I thank you, Mr. President, heartily for this mark of | your confidence, and I should be glad to comply with your wishes if I did not dis- trust my ability to do what would be re- quired of the-Secretary of the Treasury in the existing financial condition of the gov- ernment.’ ‘I will be responsible for that,’ said the President; ‘I will be responsible for that, and so I reckon we will consider the matter settled.’ Patriot Instead of Politician. The next day Mr. McCulloch was unani- mously confirmed by the Senate. It is a matter as worthy of note’as it has been productive of pride to Mf.’McCulloch and his family that every office Which he held, from controller of currency to his last posi- tion in President Arthur's cabinet, came to him unasked and unscught. He was never a politician, and political life had no charms for him, but he was patriotic to a superlative degree, and it was against his own wishes that he left Fort Wayne,where he was so successfully established in the ccmmunity end in the estimation of the people, to organize the new national cur- rency bureau of the United States govern- ment. He had gained a, national reputa- tion for his administration of the State Bank of Indisna, which tad fully main- tained its credit during the’ panic of 1 and he increa.od it to international pro- portions by bis course as the controller of the currency. After the death of Mr. Lin- colIn Mr. McCulloch found himself in an extremely unenvlable position. + DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. Ordered by the Commissioners. The Commissione s today ordered: The proposal of James Frawley, received May 22, 1895, to grade alleys in Anacostia at 18 3-4 cents per cubic yard, is accepted, it being the lowest proposal received. The proposal of the Pennsylvania Globe Gaslight Company, received May 17, 1895, to furnish 300 street lanterns in accordance with District specifications, at $4.35 each, is accepted, it being the lowest bid. That 140 feet of 10-inch sewer in K street northwest, from 22d street eastward and connecting with sewer in 22d street, and one manhole be constructed under the pro- visions of law governing the permit sys- tem, estimated ccst $231. That 200 feet of 10-inch sewer and two manholes in alley in square 153 be con- structed under che provisions of the permit system, estimated cost 474. That a public hydrant be erected at the northeast corner of Central avenue and ee street northwest, estimated cost 35. ‘That a new street hydrant be erected at ae and G streets southeast, estimated cost 5. That a brick sidewalk be laid around the southeas: corner of 22d and D Streets northwest under the provisions of the per- mit system, estimated cost $258. That a cement sidewalk be laid in front of 1214 G street northwest under the pro- visions ef the permit system, estimated cost $50.

Tracks and Street Grade: In reply to the request of District Attor- ney Birney for information relative to the non-conformity of the tracks of the B. and O. railroad to the grades of certain streets, the Commissioners have forwarded the re- port of Engineer Bailey, which says there is no record of any established grades of streets in the section traversed by the road that were in existence at the time the road was built—in 1835. The board of public works graded the streets adjacent to the raiiroad without regard to the grade of the road. They do not think there can be any ground for proceeding against the company because of non-conformity to street grades. License Granted. John A. Boland has been granted a bar room liquor license at 43 H street north- east. 7 Bids Opened. Bids were opened by the!

POLICE COURT CASES. One Prisoner Tried to Hang Herself Last Night. Arthur Tyson, a young colored man, fol- lowed the parade last night and this morn- ing he paraded in Judge Kimball's court. Arthur was in a crowd of young men and beys who were following the parade, and because he could not occupy the whole street he got in a quarrel. “He was seated on a wagon when I saw him and heard him use profane language,” said Pol:ceman Kilmartin. “The man had had trouble further down the street and was swearing at the other people.” “No, indeed, judge,” said the prisoner, “I wasn’t swearing. I was sitting on the wagon looking at the parade, and that’s a fact truth. “Are you certain that this is the man who used the bad language?” “Yes, sir.” “Have you any witnesses was asked. “There were plenty of witnesses there,” he answered, “but I don’t see any of them here.” “Five dollars.” Two Women. When two colored women from the “Division” named Mary Brown and Frances Tyreen were called as vagrants Lawyer Hewlett complained that the officer had no right to urrest them. “They have every right under the law to arrest them.” said Judge Kimball, “and if the police did their duty they would ar- rest» every woman inmate of the ‘Divi- sion’ houses.” Last night the women were in a D street diug store, where they caused some dis- order or ex ‘ment. “When 1 went to the store,” said the policeman, “the owner of the store said he knew nothing of any trouble.” Mary Brown wore a butterfly bonnet, and sat in court chewing gum and laughing, while her companion, who displayed none of the characteristics of a woman of ill fame, claimed that this was her first step in the wrong direction, and her first lesson was thirty days. Mary was given sixty days. the prisoner Expects Work. Jerry Russell and William Gray, young colored men, were in the procession as vegrants, and they said not guilty. Russell, who belongs in North Carolina, complained that he was sick and wanted to get home, while Gray said he was here because he expects to get work. “I expect to get work tomorrow,” said Gray. - “Then,” said the court, “you may go on your personal bonds, and if you don’t get work you had better leave.” Russell will be sent home. Result of Marriage. John Jones and Delia Maryman got mar- ried the other day to escape prosecution under the Edmunds’ law, and last even- ing John, who is a colored man, more than fifty years old, was found begging. “He came to my house and asked for scmething tc eat,” said Policeman Russell. “Married only a few days and begging?” queried the court. “Yes, your honor.” answered Jones. “1 lost so much time getting married that 1 had to beg for something to eat.” Five days. Attempted Suicide. “Agnes Washington, a colored girl, locked up in ihe South Washington police station last night for disorderly conduct, attempt- ed to hang herself, but was discovered be- fore she was injured. : “Why did you attempt such a thing?” Judge Kimb ill asked. “Because 1 was innocent,” she answered, “and didn’t want to go back to the work- house for nothing.” > Policeman Frank Hughes complained- against the defendant, and a fine of $ was imposed. Policeman Kelly of the fifth precinct complained against Wm. Magruder,a young colored man, for disorderly conduct, and the defendant said guilty. The officer thought that the prisoner should be fined more than $5, and for this reason he called particular attention to the cese. Judge Kimball saw no reason for impos- ing mcre than the ordinary penalty, and William paid his $ fine. Maud Miller, colored, whose appearance indicates that she is about nineteen years old, said she had been an inmate of the “Division” fer two years, and the court ccmmitted her. —_— > MOVING ON LAWLESSNESS. ‘The Board of Trade Asks Gov. 0’Fer- rall to Name a Day for Consultation. A meeting was held yesterday of the board of trade committee of nine which has under charge the consideration of the manner in which the substantial and moral interests of the District may be best re- lieved of the dangerous influences exerted upon them by the vicious gambling resorts at Jackson City and Rosslyn, in Virginia. Detectives Weedon and Horne were present during the conference and told of many in- stances they knew of persons being robbed in Jackson City and offering to turn over to the committee all the evidence they had of the viciousness across the river. It was decided, after consultation, to re- quest Gov. O’Ferrall to name some definite time when he could meet a committee from the board of trade for the purpose of dis- cussing the question, and Secretary John B. Wight dispatched a letter to the gover- nor, asking for such appointment. When Goy. O'Ferrall indicates his pleasure about a date a subcommittee of three members of the committee of nine will be appointed to meet him. —_--—__ The Chicago Woman's Club has obliter- ated the color line.

CANADA’S TARIFF Representative Daniels Will Not Pay Five Dollars to Fish. THINKS NORE TARIFF REVISION NEEDED But It Will Not Disturb the Busi- ness Interests. GOV. MORTON’S GOOD WORK Representative Daniels of Buffalo, N. Y., will mot go to Canada on his usual sum- mer fishing trip.. The reason for this is not that Mr. Daniels has tired of fishing in Canadian waters, but that he believes a principle has been invaded which he is not willing to sanction. Referring to this matter in conversation with a Star re- porter today, Mr. Dantels said: “It has been my custom to go ‘nto Can- ada on a fishing excursion during the sum- mer, but I notice that, for the first time, the Canadian government has passed a law requiring all Americans fishing in Canadian waters to pay a license of $5. I object to that, and I will not cross the border to fish this year. Previously it has been the custom of the owners of land about the lakes in Canada to charge ex- cursionists a dollar or two, for which they could fish all they wanted. I have always paid that willingly, but I object to a li- cense by the Canadian government.” Probable Loss to the Dominion. If Mr. Daniels is joined by a few Ameri- cans in his boycott against this Canadian tariff on excursionists, it is likely that the people of ihe dominion will lose more than is gained through the absence of trade which is reaped by Canadian hotel keep- ers and merchants through the visits of their American tourists. Representative Daniels is reputed a millionaire, and his wife is regarded as a millionaire several times over in her own right. It is not the five-doliar bill that the American member of the House of Representatives objects to, but it is the principle. That principle, as he has defined it, means lavish expenditure for fun on a fishing excursion in Canada, but not a five-dollar bill tribute to the Canadian government for the privilege of spending money across the border. Representative Daniels has always been favorable to Canadian annexation, pro- vided Canada wants to be annexed, and provided she makes the preliminary ‘over-. tures to be annexed. But he doesn’t think Canadian licenses on American tourists adds to the closer relations of the two countries. More Tarif! Revision Needed. Representative Daniels doesn’t believe that Congress has gotten through with the revision of the tariff. To a Star reporter today Mr. Daniels said: “About the first thing the Fifty-fourth Congress will do, in my opinion, will be to revise the tariff to such an extent as to provide sufficient revenue for the govern- ment, and at the same time to give proper protection to manufactured articles that come in competition with foreign manu- factures. We will also need a higher tariff on luxuries. “We have people in our-country who for- tunately or unfortunately prefer foreign urticles to those manufactured in this coun- try. This class of people enjoy exclusive- ness, and they will have a higher degree of enjoyment if the articles they import are used by a fewer number of people. So that their enjoyment of exclusiveness can be enhanced while the government will secure a larger amount of revenue by an increase of the duties on the articles they import. “This revision of the tariff by the repub- licans will not affect business interests. On the other hand, manufactures will be stimulated, for the revision will be made by friends of protection. A manufacturer will not fear that the price of the article he is making will fall and leave a large stock of goods on his hands, which cannot be sold for the cost of manufacture.” The Income Tax Decisia Mr. Daniels does not fear that any of the dire results predicted by Justices Harlan and White will follow the Supreme Court's action in declaring the income tax uncon- stitutional, “I think those predictions sprang from a feeling of disappointment,” he said, ‘and the justices who fcund themselves in the minority were disposed to exaggerate the cause of their diseppointment. When the first decision was rendered on an income tax that tax was imposed after the revolu- tionary war when the country was in great stress and there was a strong necessity for getting revenue. It was an example of the expression, ‘Hard cases make bad laws.’ * Gov. Morton’s Good Administration. “Speaking of New York politics, I think Mr. Morton has surprised New Yorkers with the vigor, ability and independence of his administration as governor. If Mr. Morton gves through the balance of his administration as well as he has the part that has passed, he will be an exceedingly strong presidential candidate, because he has certainly secured the general approval of the people of New York state. What the results may be cannot even be con- jectured. They are too far ahead. “So far as New York state is concerned. I think the republicans there will be sati: fied with any good man who can be show to be strong before the country at large.” a THE STAR TOMORROW. It Will Contain Many Features of General Interest.
