Cleveland and a Third Term,.
Chicaoo, Nov. 9 The lla-ald Wash"
ington correspondent sends the following:
' Does President Cleveland look upon the
receDt tidal wave as a call for a third
term? Since Tuesday, two of the cabinet
officers, one of them in mj heating, have
suggested tbe possibility of a third term
for Cleveland as the only avenue of es
cape for tbe Democracy from the slough
of defeat in which it now finds itself.-
Whether these sneeestions were made in
an echo of tbe speaker's understanding of
bow tbe wind blows at tbe Wbite House,
or whether they were made in mere ex -cess
of loyalty, is cot known. Today a
third member- of tbe cabinet, Secietarv
Morton, in the course of a conversation
on tbe political situation, made use or
words which bad a rather significant
sound. "The day of machine politics is
at an end in this country," said tbe sec
retary. "The maculae is a failure, aad
in the future we shall have to look to
strong individualities for our success."

only follow tbe other states at a distance.
He would like to decrease tbe war duo

their expenditures for defense, Austria
must do tbe same. The proposals to
disarm would not accomplish anything,
and consequently be would oppose it.
Scbejicher's motion was rejected.

Port Arthur.
Washington, Nov. 12 The Japa
nese legation bas not received, up to noon
today, offieialy cooflrnjation of tbe cap.
ture of Port Autbur. Tbe legation
people say, however, it Port Arthur has
fallen, it will be tbe most disastrous blow
China bas received. Counselor Stevens,
of tbe legatiou, said Port Arthur bad
been pronounced impregnable by the na
val experts of Germany Li Hung Chang
had built there modern gun factories,
wbicb rivaled those of Krupns. It is in
soma respects similar to Brooklyn or
Norfolk navy vsrds, although three
times grrater. Moreover, Li UuogChaog
as centered there the pick of the Chi
nese armv. It is pointed out tbe cap
ture, it effected, is mathly important in
eivine tbe Japanese a fortification inside
f China, from which tbey cannot here
after be dislodged . Tbe Japanese sold
iers will undoubtedly make the place i
depot of operations, and it will also af
ford a protected shelter for tbe Japanese
fleet. Tne gun factories, wbicb have
been tbe chief reliance of Li Huns
Chang, would be henceforth be at tbe
service of Japan.
The nuns May Teach.
fiTTSBURG, JNOV..12 Tne supreme
court today, in a majority opinion,
banded down by Judge Dean, confirms
tbe decision jf tbe lower court declaring
tbat tbe employment of sisters of tbe
Roman Catbolio chnrch in tbe common
schools of Gallitzinboroach is not un
lawful, in-smuch as no proof has been
submitted that religious sectarian in
strnction is imparted by the sisters
during school hours. - The ooinion says
that tbe fact the women are Catholics
does not disqualify them under tbe con
stitution, and quotes from article 1 of tbe
bill of rights wbicb extends to all men
tbe right to worship God according to
tbe dictates of tbeir conscience. The
opinion further declares that tbe selec
tion of Catholic teachers by tbe school
board is not a violation of law, and says
tbe fact tbat tbese teachers contributed
tbeir earnings for a religious purpose bas
no bearing on the matter. Judge
Williams delivered a minority dissenting
opinion. .

snob a grand song, and she was frequently
interrupted by outbursts of applause. Io
response to an encore she sang "Tbe Star

ceived was no leas enthusiastic than when

At The Peitentiary.
A visitor at tbe penitentiary the other
ay was surprised to see sixty-four pris
oners stand op to be photographed at one
time. That lot means just so many coos
partaively new arrivals, because tbe pie-
tares are taken as soon after their arrival
there, as there are enough to pay Sunt, T.
O. Halohinsoo, of Dallas, who has the con
tract for the job, to come oyer aad take
them. Tbsy are taken to be plaoed in the
"rogaes gallery." Another fact about the
penitentiary, not gooeraliy inspected, is
tbat it is recognized by tramps as the snoat
reliable depot of supplies in the way ot east
off olothing, and a great many call to ge
warm garments for tbe winter.
