From the Philadelphia Press. A N-w York weekly queer idea of what it calls “annec war taxes.’ One oppressive tax” to which it refers is that-of 1 cent on every ticket for a seat in a parlor or sleeping car, How the poor peopl> groan under this op- pression is only hinted at, but the burden be tremendous. The Padman Com- recently added millfons of dollars to ; ady heavily watered stock, and with all the “water” the stock sells at 129, and arge dividends are paid regularly, As Passengers do not pay the tax on the tick- rates remaining unchanged, the oppres- burden on the poor people can well be imagined. Th> poor brewers are also suf- fering because of the additional tax on beer. Their profits are said to have been cut down so that dividends in some few cases fall below 20 per cent. Speedy relief from such taxes is demanded. But hard-hearted Mr. Dingley says that no relief will be granted in this Congress, This is an awful state of affaiza, must VERDICT OF ACQUITTAL. Mr. R. E. L. Tyler Cleared of Sensa- tional Charges. Evening Star Bureau, No. 727 King street, Bell Telephone No. 146, ALEXANDRIA, Va., November 30, 1898. Mayor Simpson's court room was crowde this morning at 11 o'clock, 2 special sion being held for the purpose of trying the case of R. E. L. Tyler, charged on warrant sworn out by Robert L. Robinson | with wronging his sister, Miss Agnes Rob- jinson. The defendant was represented | Mr. James F. Caton and the plaintiff Mr. Leonard Marbury. | After hear.ng ine evidence, which was not concluded until after 1 o'clock, some thirty witnesses being examined, the mayor stated that he would dismiss the case, and that the accused was acquitted in every respect. At this announcement there were some open expressions of approval, and Mr. Tyler's friends crowded around to shake his hand. _ ALLIED TRADES INVITED. Requested to Send Representation to Washington Centennial. President E. L. Lomax presided at the meeting last evening of the Building Trades Council, and Mr. J. P. Healey was secretary. The committee having in charge the mat- ter of the formation of a tenants’ league reported that several organizations had be- come interested in the matter and that they had secured a list of those who would become members of the league. A committee composed of Messrs. Milford Spohn, J. P. Healey and D. Walsh was ap- pointed to draft resolutions, which will be given to the delegate of the council to the coming annual convention of the National Building Trades Council, for submission to that body, requesting that the officials of the national organization and representa- tives from the allied bodies throughout the country, attend and participate in the cen- tennial celebration of the establishment of the national government, to be neld in Washington in 1900. ste eee Roston Case in Jury's Hands.

Harold Frederic’s self-confidence and power of dominating strangers stood him in good stead in one of his first visits—if not his very first visit—to Berlin. The incident as he related it, seemed natural enough te on American not brought up in awe of a military caste, but to those who know Ger- many it was almost surprising that he came through it with his life. He had been pay ing some formal diplomatic calis, and in the evening dropped in at the Cafe Bauer ir ‘he unwonted glory of a frock coat and 2 tall silk hat.-This hat was carefuily hung on a hat stard, and Frederic sat down t read an English newspaper just arrived Enter a particularly fine specim of the lieutenant, booted and spurred an orded nd epauletted. He brushed nst_ the at stand, knocked Frederic’s hat over intc the sawdust, and swaggered to his seat n without so much as looking around. The slight to the hat was more than Frederic could endure. In a cowering passion he went to the lieu- stood over him, and pointed to the object on the floor, “Pick up that hat, sir,” he roared. The officer stared amazed, the waiters were paralyzed with terror ut hear- ing one so much more than human so ad- dressed by a civilian. “Pick up that hat,’ repeated Frederic, in a tone more menacing than before. And the lleutenant did what he was told. He was as irresistibly domi nated by the courage and force of the man as a school boy before his master; or per- haps he thought Frederic carried the cus- tomary west American revolver. VENERABLE tenant A QUARTET. Four Hlinots Sisters Whose Ages An- kregate 343 Years. From the St. Louls Globe-Democrat. Among the hills of Johnson county, TL, there live four sisters who clalm the palm for longevity. The aggregate ages of this remarkable quartet foot up to years, or an average of over eighty-five years each, and they bid fair to remain here for some time yet. Among their kinfolks, who number half of Johnson county, they are known as Aunt Peggy McFatridge, aged ninety-three years; Aunt Polly Gore ed eighty-six years; Aunt Sally Thacker, eighty-four years, and Aunt Fannie Rey- nolds, aged eighty years. All of these la- dies are widows, and three of them hav* outlived their husbands thirty or forty years. They are devoted Christians and faithful members of the Methodist Church. The family moved to Johnson county from Hopkinsvilie, Ky., in 1819, and have made their home there ever since. They are re- markably well preserved, both in mind and body, and many are the interesting stories can tell of the exciting times during arly history of Hlinois and of succee ing years. Although living in the same ccunty for twenty years, these sisters never all met together until during the past sum- mer, when a family reunion was held. ‘The event s celebrated with a big dinner, at which a host of relatives were seated, a of others being what would ordi- y led old people, as the ases of ten of those present, including these ladics, aggregated 728 years. Aunt Peggy, the eld- est, is mark. She spends most of her tims read- i and reads without glasses, as © has obtained hee second sight. Mrs. Warder, wife of Senatar Walter Warder, and Mrs. Harker, wife of Judge O. A. Harker of the Illinois appellate court, are Fnieces of these ladies, their father having been a brother of the venerable quartet. County Clerk Thomas Gore of Johnson county is also a connection. - coe He Didn’t Forget Them, From Pearson's Weekly. A young married lady one morning gave her husband a sealed letter, which he was to read when he got to his office. He did as he was told, and the letter ran as fol- low: aim obliged to tell you something that may give you pain, but there is no help for it. You shall know everything, whatever be the consequences. For the last week I have felt that it must come to this, but I have waited until the last extremity, and can remain silent no longer. Do not over- wheim me with bitter reproach, for you will have to put up with your share of the trouble as well as myself." Cold perspiration stood in thick drops on the brow of the husband, who was prepared for the worst. With a trembling hand he turned over the page and read on: “Our coals are all done. load to be sent this afternoon. I thought you might forget it for the tenth time, and therefore wrote you this letter.”” But he didn't! eee A Poser for Dr. From the New York Herald. Dy. Parkhurst is not an :xpanstonist.

NEW YORK, November 30.—Karly cables this morning reMected a decidedly reac- tlonary tendeney, in the London market, and organized support was necessary to prevent a substafitial reflection of the pro- on this side. Egndon heuses gold in all avout 40,000 shares of various stocks, and the hreadth and absorbing power of the local market was again severely tested. The factional itmits of the decline after the first few minutes of trading demonstrate the inherent strength of the main situation. Northern Pacific issues bore the brunt of the selling, owing to financial conditions of an unsatisfactory nature in Berlin and the rumor at that center than sn important American interest had marketed its hold- ings. These shares opened considerably un- der the closing paitty and were for a time inclined toward an irregular and hesitating course. The support around 40 for the common stock was called exceptionally good, and a sharp fractional rally followed. The engagement of gold in London for export to this side was another factor stim- ulating foreign selling. The continued ac- cumulation of trade balances in Europe have all along suggested an early goid movement, and every market interest of any importance has been prepared to see London seli stocks to offset the demand. Having recognized this possibility, there is small prospect of such selling being al- lowed to interfere significantly with local plans for improvement. 2 The overtrading in Germany is another factor which shrewd observers were well prepared to offset, and had Germany's sell- ing not been complicated with the struge’ for control of ‘disputed territory in the northvest, its influence would have been of small proportions. American Sugar was vance of 2 per vent over early prices on buying somewhat mixed in character, The reported consolidation of all sugar interests was denied by. officials of the American Company, but this denial was entirely ex- pected. Yesterday’s advance was due to an enforced covery movement and to the re- port that the eompany would continue dividends at the usual rate. While consolidation may come as the only solution of a trade fight, It is not yet suf- ficiently near to become a factor in the market. ‘The trading during the final hour reflected a revival of:eonfldence in many of the low priced shares, and spme rather good buying w reported 1 Union Pacific continues to be in favor, and the common stock is unquestionably zving into strong hands.
