Burke has re- phed, telling how appurent discrepandies wight exist, and says he is tied down by his business in London, but when he can get away will sail for Louisaua.

Judge Stansbury, who was for some ume engaged with Hurke in @ business cupaecity, has < made a statement showing that he negotiated loans for Burke at different times, amounting to thousands of dollars, always depositing as cotlateral state bonds handed nim by Burke for that purpose. In comparing the numbers he handled with those now published, he finds that among the bonds hundled by nim, nearly twenty thousand dollars worth were fraudlent. Heo haa vo doubt of their validity until the recent disclosures, Stansbury's statement, which is made on the wdvice "of his attorney, shows that Burke as far back a8 15% was using the bonds then in his keeping as state treasurer s ocollateral in borrowing money for his own use. e South Dakota KEpiscopalians, S10ux FaLis, 8.

One morning the son arose early and went to the crib to get some cobs with which to start a fire, Avriving at the crib hefound his father breathing hard and in an unconscious condi- tion. The old gentleman bad been murdered with some blunt instrument, his face being fearfully battered up. Julius was tried for murder and tho only damaging testimony adduced was the statement of the young man’s mother, that bad feeling existed between father and son and medical testi- mony to the effect that the murdered man bad only lived a_few minutes after bemg struck. A few days before the trial one Chambers, formerly employed by Bailey, disappeared und has never since been secn in the vicinity.

Buffalo’s great natural gas bubble has finally burst, 1t did not dissolve ol the “all it once and nothing first” prineiple, described by Dr. Hotmes, says the Buf- fulo Express.

Thesupply for house- hold purposesdoes not equal the demand. No new sources of supply ve been found; the one pipe line will not carry all the gas that mightbe forced through it, and the company shrivks from the the costof building another. Mr. O'Day even says: “*We can no compete with the chenp grades of conl that are used, Fven i Pittsborg, I am told, right in the neighberhold of the gas fields, they are finding that they can not do it. The manufaciurers understand thav we can not furnish them with gasat the rates for which they can get chenp bituminous coal. We ean compete with antinracite, but not with the cheaper grades.” Did Mr., O'Day ever assert that gas was cheaper than cozl? Probubly not. But some of his friends have. and, when the Exoress proved to the contrary, it was jeered ut by the natural gas organs, The compuny has a profitable mon- opoly in supplying fucl gus for house~ hold purposes.” But the poor manufac- turcrs, for whose benelit principally the was introduced in Buflalo, and who » deluded into getting up petitiong 10 the council that the company might be allowed to furnish gas o them at re- duced rates, they musi remain out in the cold.
