Zimmerman the American amature champion, and unless some very satisfactory explanations can be made there is likely to be a breach in the friend- ly relations of the two organizations. The refusal of the N, C. U. to recognize Zimmerman as an amateur is considered to be an affront to the LL. A. W., as it is understood that each organization shall recognize each other’s credentials. There is a feeling that Zimmerman was shut out from competing at English races be- cause of his success in beating the Eng- lish cracks last year. Senator Stanford Better, Senator Stanford, who has been ill at his home in San Francisco, Cal., ever since his return from Washington some six weeks ago, is slowly reeuperating. The troubie with the Senator is that his hearing is very much affected, and that he is so weak in his legs from gout as to be almost unable to walk without assist- ance. There is good authority for the statement that Mr. Stanford will not re- turn to Washington this fall unless the complexion of Congress is such as to make his vote necessary to Republicans to carry party questions, He has de- cided to resign from the Senate unless the party leaders deem his presence there imperative. Senator Hill to Fight the Gould Estate. Comptroller Campbell has engaged Senator David B, Hill and Benjamin R. Dos Passos, of New York city, as the State’s counsel to defend, before Surro- ; gate Ransom, of New York city, and in higher courts the claim of the State to | $750,000 as a tax from the estate of Jay Gould. The Gould estate disputes the porrectness of the State’s valuation of Jay Gould’s stocks, and also its right to tax $5,009,000 which Jay Gould bequeathed to George Gould for “services,” claim- ing that it was in payment of a debt and was not a gift. Elmira College’s New Head. The Rev. Dr. Rufus S. of the Central Presbyterian Church at Orange, N. J., has received and accepted acalifrom the Board of Trustees of Elmira College, to be president of that coilege. Dr. Green is considered one of the strongest men in the Presbyterian Church, and is the chairman of one of the General Assembly’s Committee on Systematic Beneficence, one of the most important of the committees. ‘Vast Damage From Levee Breaks.

Ee: Important Pension Order. Commissioner Lochren of the Pen- sion Bureau issued an order modifying the practice of the office as to suspen- sions of pensions. The most important change is that which directs that here after there will be no suspensions ex- cept in cases where the record shows on its face that the soldier was not entitled to any pension whatever. wuss: The wind attained the force of 4 hurricane at Savannah, Ga., on Mon- day. Fully $10,000,000 worth of prop- erty was destroyed, and it is estimated that forty persons were killed. Many buildings were demolished, and ship- ping in the harbor suffered great loss The town of Kernersville, in Forsyth County, N. C., was struck by the ey- clone and 100 houses were blown down. Four bodies had at last accounts been taken from the ruins, and at least tifty persons were more or less injured. Kernersville is eighteen miles west of Greensborough, on the Northwestcrn North Carolina Railroad, and has a population of about 700. Every house in the town was either wholly or part- ly demolished. Rumors of many other disasters in small towns from Georgia to Virginia have been received. Details of loss of life and destruction of property are also received from Brunswick, Ga., and points further south along the coast. Home Rule will Prevail. The final stage of the Home Rule bill, set for August 30, has led to the most extensive preparations by both Liberals and Tories. Mr. Gladstone is expected to close the debate by an- other great speech. The bill will be passed, and will go to the House @ Lords on Monday, September 4. Mr. Gladstone has made temporary peace with the Scotchmen who wera claiming his attention for their de mands before they went further with him in Irish home rule. He has thrown a sop to the Radicals, with their “New- castle programme,” by promising that the next parliamentary session shall be devoted exclusively to British af- fairs. He has also used the soft an- swer to turn away the wrath of the Welshmen in the matter of church dis- establishment. Troubles Over Pensions. There is serious trouble brewing be- tween Elijah A. Morse, member of Congress from the Twelfth Massachu- setts District, and William Lochren, of Minnesota, Commissioner of Pensions. Mr. Morse has informed Mr. Lochren that he expects him immediately to or- der a review and re-examination of a particular pension case; “otherwise,” he says, “I shall call the attention of Congress and the country to this case at the first opportunity.” Mr. Lochren has replied: “I shall have to submit to | this dire alternative, for I assure you I will not order a review or re-examl- | nation of the case.” Mr. Lochren fur- ther suggests that Mr. Morse is an ill- | informed “demagogue” with “a capa- city for willful and malignant lying,” ; and afflicted further with a develop- | ment of “sordid meanness,” which im- pels him to violate a law of Congress ! by wrongfully using a Government | penalty envelope to convey a “silly | liber” and thereby “swindle his Gov- ; ernment out of the sum of two cents.” Watking Around Our Boundary. Chris. Miller, a Chicago newspaper man, who is walking around the boun- dary line of the United States, report ed in St. Paul Tuesday. He has so far covered 5,900 miles. He went from New Orleans to Spokane. Now he has left for Chicago to follow the shore | line to the Atlantic, and thence to New Orleans. He trusts to the notoriety of the feat and pickings from lectur2s en- livened with boxing to keep up his pocket-money. He left New Orleans November 13, 1892, and has two and one-half years from thet time to win | the wager. He has lost thirty pounds in weight. The Cholera in Hungary. The cholera is slowly but steadily spreading in the great ceutres of popu- lation in Galicia and Hungary, where it is difficult to eradicate it. A dis patch from Trivoli says several cases of Asiatic cholera have been found among the Mecca pilgrims and the patients have been taken to the hospi- tal. Double guards surround the hos pital. Most of the pilgrims who are stricken are in @ very critical condition eal politics. When Mr. Cleveland was elected President last fall the Repub- lican postmaster, who had served thir- ty years, was told by Mr. Yeomans, the leading Republican of the com- munity, that he would not be disturb- ed. Mrs. Yeomans, net agreeing with her husband’s policy, tage | forward- , ed a letter to her brother at Washing- ton, and this week a Democratic posd waster was appointed.
