THE BARTHOLDI STATUE. DAILY ENQUIRER • SI'N: COLUMBUS GEORGIA-, SATURDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 11, 1886. flit* KimI-Tii|>« Difficulty Which ThresfciiH lo Spoil the I mi nun rut ion. ! fe.r. bottomed upon old orthodox ; p^^^rian ancestors. You would be sur- [ to hem- that the two sections of law and church-going have "an ’InUmate con- Ncw Yr-' ~ ‘ ~ Washington, September 10.—A curious difficulty has arisen in the way of success ful inauguration of the Bartholdi statue and that is a doubt, as to the power of tii ' mesidont to invite the nartiidnatln president to invite the participation of official representatives of the French mi tiou, without which the ceremonies ■would be comparatively meaningless and absurd. In the case of the Yorktown cele bration the president was expressly rc- quested to invite the representative's of the French and German na tions to participate, and special committees of both houses of congress were appointed to be present. Nothing of the kind hRS been done in this case. The sundry civil bill was signed August 1, a few days before the president lett for his vacation. A request was duly forwarded to him that ho authorize Invitations to be extended to representatives of the French nation to take part In the inauguration of the Bartholdi statue. He telegraphed from the Adirondacks that he could And no authority in the law for taking such a step. In this dilemma recourse was had to the nection in New York. Probably Dr. Hall's church, which was founded by the Alex ander family, is the chief citadel of clients and lawyers in the city of New York; some Ot the judges, like Vanborst, get both their law and gospel from Dr. Hall’s sermons. A Hueeesstul new tirm In New York is that of Dillon & Sway no. Dillon was a notable United States bulge i west of the Mississippi river, whose I Knowledge of railroad law attracted Jav ! and others, who desired him to go to New ^ ork and nerve t hem. He resigned JJ ,U * wont into business with Wager £ way no, the eldest son of the late Judge « ? wa *V K ‘> of Ohio, who was on the supreme . bench at Washington. They nrohabiv stand at the head of railroad lawyers iii *New York. Swayne is n bold, deep-chested pleader, with an easy grasp upon language Ulld ideas. xix unvmiim itbUUlOC WHO IJttli LU mC joint resolution of February 22,1877, which authorized the president to accept the Bar- UUtiiuiidVU CUV, HU (U)GCLIb I ne car* tholdi statue, “when presented by citizens of the French republic, and upon the com pletion thereof he shall cause the same to be inaugurated with such ceremonies as will serve to testify the gratitude of our people for this expressive and felicitous remembrance of the sympathy of the citizens of our sister republic.” It is argued that this original resolution places an obligation upon the president to see that the statue “is suitably inaug urated.” and to do this he must invite the donors. It is also maintained that the very appropriation of $56,500 for the cor- emonies contemplates the entertainment of thirty official French guests, who must by invited by some one in the name of the United States. Secretary Bayard is be lieved to favor this view, but a decision is to be postponed until the president returns and a cabinet meeting be held upon it. Meanwhile the day in October when the statue is to be accepted is near at hand. R/&LWAY affairs. The largest Earnings Ever Reported fertile Sum mer Months. The earnings of the railroads tell their own story. There never was a time when so many railroad corporations in this coun try were making regular stated returns of their income. When the leading financial journals fiist began to make reports month by month, it was only under great pressure, jand there never would have been such a general showing iiad it not been for the English stockholders who demanded it. Many and many a time have the earnings of American roads been cabled to England and then cabled back again for no other reason than that the English bankers demanded what American bankers are afraid to ask, and when the information was forthcoming they gave it out. To-day the majority of the mileage of American railroads is repre sented in the reports of earnings that are given out monthly, both gross and net, and the railroads that make weekly re turns have very nearly a majority of the mileage. Look ut the returns, as they have come in during the past week. The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe had been running beliind-hand, but in the first month of the second half year it shows a gain of 10 per cent, in the gross and 23 in the net earnings. Some time ago there was talk about the Chicago, Burlington aud Quincy increasing its expenses so much that 8 per cent, dividends would become a thing of the past, and the reduction wpuld be gradual until it reached 5 per cent. During the first half of the year the Chi cago, Burlington and Quincy hardly held its own, for with an increased mileage the receipts were only a trifling amount greater than they had been during the same period of last year. In July, how ever, corn and wheat were shipped so heavily that the company gained over 30 per cent gross, and the net earnings were • Tin- B-hirtlii|iin ke at Sin. Portland, Me., September 10.—Capt. Vir* 0 "■ Jewett, of the schooner George '* . Cashing, thinks that he experienced on the I,e Have banks the earthquake that prostrated Charleston. He says that the appearances at that time indicated a high wind, but all was quiet, when suddenly, almost without warning, a black wall seemed to rise on the water and a mighty wave came rolling in that fairly lifted the schooner on its crest to a height that he never before knew a wave to reach. Then the schooner went down. “It was like going over a bank,” Capt. Jewett says, and the ship was burled in the foam below. Emerging from this wave with sails torn from aer, and with the crown-work of the topmast gone, the schooner encountered a second wave, but nothing to be compared with the first. A terrific gale followed. A sailor says that he happened to look ahead just as the great wave came iu sight. There was a little wind, he says, and the tremendous mass of water ahead looked so like a great hill that he cried “breakers ahead,” the next moment the schooner striking against tlie seeming clilis and was lifted to the top of the wave; then he comprehended what had happened. Evarts’ Kloiiuenee. Gath, in Philadelphia Times. I asked how many members of the New York bar there might be in vain; opinion says probably 10,000. The head of this bar few can indicate, though it may be Joseph Choate, of Mr. Evarts’ firm, lie is the son of Rufus Choate, and his personal charac ter contributes much to his legal standing. Mr. Evarts probably receives the largest fees in the city for a personal ap pearance, unless Mr. Conkling be excepted. Evarts’ power is in the to see through a case after 67 per cent ahead of the same month last year. The iron trade aud the ore traffic have received a stimulus that is making glad the hearts of those who own stock in the railroads run ning up into the northern part of Minne sota, for the Milwaukee, Lake Shore and Western is earning 80 or 90 per cent, more than it did during the same period of last year. The other granger roads will hardly match the earnings of the Burlington and Quincy, but the St. Paul gained 17 per ■cent, during the last week anil 13 for the month, and the Northwestern, which has an important line into the ore district, 23 per cent, for the week and 19 for the month. The Northern Pacific opens its new year with an advance of 3S per cent, in the gross for the last week in August and 19 for the mouth, and the St. Louis and San Francisco, without handling a pound of through freight to the coast, piles up the gross 40 per cent., aud for the month _ is 2S per cent., ahead of last August. This is the story for all the roads, save the Union Pacific, whose small gain does not change the percentages for the first half oi the year. There is a surplus, however, of more than half a million, which assures a sur plus at the end of the year sufficient to pay 3 or 4 per cent, on the stock.. Sixty roads gain 14 per cent, in the third week of August, and nine gain 16 per cent, in the fourth week. All railway managers are satisfied that the improvement will con tinue. , . The amount of traffic is something ab normal, and though the rates are low they more than cover the cost, and enough busi ness is offering to keep iu constant activity all the ears and locomotives which the company has. The St. Paul never had so many cars in use as it has now, and the § rices of rolling stock are stiffening every ay. There *s not a car shop in the coun try which is not working on full time; not one wh ! eb is not behind-hand on its orders. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company has three of lour shops, besides the great works at Altoona, but it has been compelled to order 6000 ears Ifrom other Works, and though they come in at the rate of forty or fifty a day, they are put on ; clairvoyance it has been prepared, and" present it so that it is equally clear to both judge and jury. I once knew n client ivho paid Evarts $5000 to go before a congressional 'ommittee. The man was full oi his case, but Evarts seemed to be paying no atten- j talking about him- tiou, but rather to be _ self. He borrowed a few pamphlets and asked one or two questions languidly. The client went to the committee room all wrought up with apprehension. He came back and said to me: “You had ought to have been there to-day. You missed a wonderful instance of the power of that little fellow to drink in our case and distill it.” Here the client filled up with tears. Said I: “What is the matter?” Said he: “I never knew how badly we had been treated before.” Evarts’” per formance had carried conviction to the man that he was injured, which I think he may have doubted before that, since he was in possession of the property. Conkling lias made the impression of a new man, and the lawyers chiefly envy him for getting so many clients. ('liewini; I■ ii in by tin Tun. Cleveland Plain Dealer. A day or two ago my. wayward feet car ried my body into the suburbs aud to a chewing gum factory. There I got some idea of an industry that thrives on penny sales and the remorseless energy of Ameri can jaws. In the place I saw half a dozen blocks of marble gum, or petroleum wax. Each weighed about 100 pounds and was almost like pure pentelican stone, clear to the old sculptor’s heart aud hand. And it was absolutely clean and odorless. A tew weeks ago the stuff laid in one of the huge tanks near the oil wells of Pennsylvania, a dirty, greenish-brown fluid, with the con sistency of a bad mud and the bad smell of a glue factory. Then it was crude oil, but since then it had been in a turmoil, and through “stirring times” and chemical processes. From it had been ex tracted a lot of kerosene, almost as much naptha, not a little benzine, plenty of tar, and a lot of valuable but technically named affairs that arc out of reach. Anyway, the guiu wax was left, and itlwas in that! saw, clean as an ideal farmer’s bed-chamber, and as odorless as a civil-service reformer’s record. Before it became the chewing gum of our friends it had to be melted, fla vored. sweetened and “put up” in fancuul array. Then the 100-pound block woo’d appear in 5000 penny cakes, and I am told that about 500 of these 100-pound blocks are used in each week of the history of Co lumbia, “the gum of the ocean,” etc. It’s tough—the fact, not the gum.

Now York Lawyers. Philadelphia Times. In the New York bar not much atten tion is given to realties or the science ot law but to the commercial record ot toe law firm. Conkling’s income for the past year is thought to lie about $60,000, winch is probably as high as a man can get. even in New York. I asked a man quite equal to him how he stood as a lawyer, i he re ply was: “Why, he goes up there like a character newly arrived from a strange, wild land, and rolls off a vocabulary as big as the spots on a tattooed man. y hen he is done nobody quite knows which side lie has been on, but there is something about his manner which concedes thj, ca ® e to him.

My wife for many years was afflicted with a blood disease which baffled the most skillful treatment, and finally re.,ult- ed in a very large ulcerated and ugly looking running sore on one of her limbs, which had been growing larger and larger for the ’ast four years, discharging quanti ties of pus or matter, and was so rapidly undermining her health that I almost de spaired of effecting a cure. I tried every known remedy, such as sarsaparilla and potash mixtures and prescriptions ot the best physicians, with no benefit in any way. A few months ago my attention was called to S. S. 3. I procured some of this medicine, which she began to take, and in a short time increased in flesh and strength, and the sore, which was then larger than mv hand and reached to the bone, began to heal. After continuing its use mu a few weeks, she regained her health and spirits, and the sore was entirely healed, bhe had been in such a terrible condition for years, audjvas so near death’s door at the time she commenced the S. 8. 8., that I refrained from making the facts known to the public. Though knowing or being sat’-fied that she wad cured, I feared the disease might return ; but as it hits now been three months since she stopped using the medicine, and is in perfect health,being able to walk several miles without unuoual fatigue, and attend to household duties as she did before she was afflicted, I publicly make this statement for the benefit ot all who are afflicted as was "Doreen.

Washington, September 7. — Large quantities of new crisp $1 notes are being macerated at the treasury department daily, with a view to getting all the green backs of that denomination out of circula tion and forcing silver dollars into use. The plates and the paper are nil ready for ibe newly authorized one and two dollar silver cirtitleutes. but they will not be Printed and issued until the middle of No vember. Treasury olHciuls say that the delay is for the purpose of forcing some of the surplus silver out of the treasury. Treasurer Jordan says his object is to carry out the policy of the secretary and gather in all of the small notes which are redeem able in gold, so is to make w v for the sil ver certificates, which are redeemable in in silver.
