It Is a big job to attempt to run both the executive and legislative branches of the government, but republicans ought to wish that Mr. Cleveland would make sncces of it, because, however faulty many of his idea are, they are far better than what hi party would bring forward, if freed from hi influence. Deputy president i position un known to the constitution of the United States, but it practically exists all the same, and is filled by Secretary Lamont, who, while nominally at the bead of the war department, really ha very little to do with it business; hi numerous duties as deputy president leaving him no time, even if he had the' inclination. Little time as be has given to the war department aince be entered the cabi net, it i probable that he will give less in the future, a the statement was this week semi-officially made that a demo crat was ling sought with the ability to perform the duties of secretary of war and the willingness to accept the position and sslary of assistant secre tary, the object being to allow Pan La mont to continue drawing the salary of secretary while performing none of the work pertaining to the position. "Re form" come high, but the democratic administration is bound to have it. Senator Morgan' concurrent resolu tion for the appointment of a joint com mittee of seven senator and seven rep resentatives to investigate the entire financial system of the country and re port to congress what legislation i nec essary to prevent periods of stringency such as the country has just passed through, has been favorably received and if it be not antagonized by the ad ministration it may go throagh. A number of gentlemen interested in protected industries have this week told the bouse way and mean committee what the result would be if the tariff i lowered or entirelr removed in some cases entire destruction of industries, and in a'l cases lower wages for Ameri can workmen.

The hot weather, which is causing the home seekers o much suffering, con tinues. The sun is blazing hot and the winds, lack of water and shelter are causing increased sickness and prostra tion. Six more registration clerks were engaged this morning. I he work is proceeding somewhat faster. Men In line have been there since Monday even ing and are literally exhausted. Hun dreds are atllicted with throat and lung disorders, caused by breathing the dust laden air. Many are obliged to drop out to secure the services of physicians. Several stripper were prostrated during the night and this morning. The Santa Fe trains arrived late last night in five crowded sections. This morning crowded trains came in over all the lines. There are fully 40,00 strangers in and about town. y.t.niaUc Child Mard.r. Vienna, Sept. 14. A sensation was caused by the arrest of two women liv- j iikX in separate villages in the district of Kuttenburg, Bohemia. It seems they engaged systematically in the business of murdering children whose parents de sired to have theui out of the way for any reason. They contracted to dispose of the bodies effectually, guaranteed se crecy, and did a thriving business at 5 florin per child. The discovery wa made by accident. One of the women actually kept account-books, in which he entered the sums received, from whom, the age and description of the child and 1 j o.m uwciwM of. By the help of this horrible record the authori ties expect not only to convict the women, but also a large number of guilty parents. rigbtlna at Kio. Wanhinuton, Sept. 14.

A few shells weie fired Into the city, and a woman was killed in her residence. Commercial telegrams have again been forbidden. The Charleston has not yet arrived.

Fire patrols are watching the approach of the ilames, and the inhabi tants expect to be called upon at any moment to fight the fire. Central CU7, a mining town of 1,500 inhabitants, three miles north of here, is thought to be in danger, the fire having approached within a mile. At Portland, six miles beyond, the. Portland mills and other buildings were destroyed. East of Dead wood a tract seven miles Ion and three broad has been burned over, including a number of small dwellings and many thousand cords of cut wood.

Breckinridge by Miss Pollard come to trial he will deny abso lutely every one of them, and that his denials will be supported by the strong est sort of proof. Colonel Breckinridge will prove that he never introduced Miss Pollard to Mr. Lnke P. Blackburn as his future wife, and that the latter lady never said he did to General Duke or any one else. Miss Pollard was intro duced into Washington society by Mrs. Admiral Dahlgren.' That lady met Miss Pollard at a charitable institution in the capital city, and introduced her to one of Ambassador Bayard' daughters, and in that way she worked herself up. Colonel Breckinridge will return to Kentucky the latter part of the week and announce himself as a candidate for re-election to congress. He will take the stump, make some startling dis closure and vigorously deny that he is the father of Miss Pollard's baby. Til K TAItirr UK A KINGS. Manufacturer. Laud the McKlulsy BUI and Deprecate Bad action. Wasiiisitox, Sept. 12. A large dele gation of wool men appeared before the ways and means committee today. C. II. Clark, of Philadelphia, representing the Manufacturers' club, said he be lieved the depression affecting manu facturing to be due in part to the appre hension entertained by manufacturer that there would be a fulfillment of the threat of radical changes in the duties on imported materials. Manufacturer were afraid to operate their mills, and merchant were afraid to buy, Many mills had ceased operations completely, much greater number were running upon short time, and many had already been compelled to reduce wages. He expressed the opinion that relief may be afforded instantly by the assurance that the committee would not assail the tariff law in such a manner a to expose the manufacturer to unequal competi tion from European working with a lower wage scale. S. C. D. North, of Boston, read resolutions adopted by the National Wool Manufacturers' Associa tion, which lauded the McKinley bill and deprecated the passage of any meas ure to reduce tariff schedules on wool. Theodore Justice, of Philadelphia, as sumed that it was the intention of the committee to put wool on the free list, and said such action would destroy the second largest attricultural industry in the country. He declared the cost of transporting wool from one portion of this country to another was 12 per cent, greater than the cost of transportation from foreign countries to America. He I said the woolen mill throughout the country were being closed daily, ami at tributed It to the fact that President Cleveland said that within a few months wool would be placed on the free list. A Train Bated by a Child. Iniuasai'oi.ih, Sept. 12. A Pennsyl vania passenger train yesterday left this city late and wa running at a high rate of speed to make up lost time.

While the train was stand ing at a station the crew heard a shot and entering the calxxise found Ams bury breathing his lact. His friends reject the idea of suicide. Washington-, Sept. 13. Shoup this morning addressed the senate in oppo sition to the Wilson bill. He made a review of the condition of affairs a they existed twelve month ago, and showed by facts and figure cited that we were then prosperous. He said at that time both parties had declared for a double standard, and.that Cleveland, a well as Harrison, had accepted the nom ination for president with full knowl edge of this pledge. Shoup did not pretend to know when Cleveland be came convinced it was necessary that the country should come to a nonmetal lie basis, but he did know that Villard and others appeared in Washington and began to lobby for the repeal ol the Sherman law immediately after hi election, and it was a fact that the re wards and punishment of the incoming administration were invoked to influ ence that legislation. The speaker did not believe the Sherman act had any thing to do with the financial crisis. It injured no one, be said, except the resi dents of the silver-producing states. Indeed, he considered it had been of much benefit to the nation at large. The Sherman law was now the only. bul wark between bimetalism and mono metalism in the country. He believed the passage of a free-coinage bill would immediately restore confidence and en large our trade. Repeal would result in removing this country from the head of the column of Al producer of precious metals; in a contradiction of currency and in the weakening of the country by destroying one of its great industries. He drew a strong picture of the distress that would be occasioned in the silver producing states and asked : ''Must the prayerful appeal of these people for jus tice paes unnoticed?" Dolph of Oregon followed Shoup. He attributed the disturbance in the coun try to the threat of hostility 13 a pro tective policy. The current of events had confirmed it. His impression was that the Sherman act had little to do with the business depression,. and he would undertake to show that our finan cial condition was what might have been expected from the success of the democrats, whose platform pledged the party to a reversal of the protective system. Mr. Dolph then proceeded to argue against the free coinage of silver, and vigorously criticised those senators from the silver states who attempted to make this question a sectional one. He said : "If there is a senator who would be governed in hi action tor such an important measure a the pending bill by sectional influence, he is unworthy of a seat in this house. All our indus tries are so intimately connected that one could not be struck down witbout all being injured. Free coinage will not promote the silver industry, and it is not just to charge the supporter of the Wilson bill with being the enemies of the silver-producing states. The sena tors who oppose free silver are not hos tile to silver. They oppose free coinage because they believe that it would drive both silver and gold from circulation and would give the United State a de preciated currency, and take it out of the class of prominent nations and place it side by side with Mexico. Eveayone agree that the prosperity of the coun try will be promoted by the concurrent use of gold and silver. But there are points of disagreement. The men who oppose the free coinage of silver do so because they believe that , such coinage is impracticable. I do not believe that with the free coinage of silver the United can secure a concurrent circulation of gold and silver or Increase the price of silver in the world. It is an absurd to claim this as it would be to say that the United States can make wheat worth $1 a bushel by offering to pay $1 for a bushel. Tim United States cannot ig nore the action of the great commercial nations of the world in regard to silver."
