ARMOUR’S POOR RELATIONS.
The Big Packer Telle a Fanny Story About
One He Bun't Made Rich.
It has been a matter of current report
for years among board of trade men that
Phil Armour has no poor relations, says
a Chicago newspaper man. “He will
not allow any of them to remain poor, ”
a veteran of the board remarked byway
of explanation of this unusual good for
tune of a rich man. “He makes them
all rich. ”
*‘l have heard that story before, ’ ' Mr.
Armour remarked, with a smile, when
one of his friends asked him about it the
Other day. “But it’s a mistake. I have
enough of them. ’ ’
Then the big packer burst out in a
laugh, and his friends knew a good
story was coming.
“One of the poor kiwi—he lives down
in Illinois—is one of the most persist
ent men I ever knew. He keeps writing
and writing for money all tho time. He
is not a bad fellow, only improvident,
and if he displayed the same energy in
attending to business that he does in
writing to me he would have been rich
along time ago. Well, he kept sending
one letter after another, saying that if
he only had §SOO he would be all right.
He repeated this so often that one day
I told my secretary to send a letter say
ing that if he would’t bother me for a
year I would send him §SOO. ”
“Well, sir,” and Mr. Armour’s sides
shook with laughter, “as soon as the
mails could bring a reply I got it. He
said, "Make it §I,OOO and two years,’
and I thought it was such a clover turn
that I sent the money. ’ ’
“What happened next?”
“In about three months he wrote
again, saying the agreement was off be
cause his wife hadn’t been included.”
Mr. Armour seemed to think the
whole thing was a great joke and espe
cially enjoyed the shrewdness of his
poor relation.
PULLMAN’S LEGAL ADVISER.
Robert T. Lincoln, Son of Old Abe, Said to
Hold Thib Responsible Position.
Since his return from the court of St.
James little has been seen of Robert
T. Lincoln. He dropped almost entire
ly out of sight after reaching his old
home. Occasionally he would be seen
at the Chicago club, but he never ap
peared in court and did not go often to
his law office in the Woman’s temple.
Some of Mr Lincoln’s friends remarked
he was out of the legal swim and added
that the honor of representing his coun
try at St. James had proved very ex
pensive.
These solicitous friends were very
much misinformed. Mr. Lincoln is
kept quite busy in the law business. ,He
is the personal legal adviser of George
M. Pullman and spends practically all
his time in the office of the palace car
magnate. When Mr. Pullman leaves
town, ex-Minister Lincoln accompanies
him. They are constant and inseparable
companions. By those who think they
can detect Mr. Lincoln's style it is
claimed that all of the prepared inter
views and correspondence credited to
Mr. Pullman since the strike began were
the work of ex-Minister Lincoln.
“Corporation law—Pullman corpora
tion especially—is queer business for a
son of Abe Lincoln to be engaged in,”
said one of his father’s admirers yester
day. “I wonder what Abraham would
say if he were still in the tiesh and
could speak to the son who has been ad
vising Mr. Pullman how to starve his
employees into subjection.”—Chicago
Herald.
England and France.
The British political campaign, which
for weeks has been too dull to arouse
the slightest popular interest, has at
length suspended until midwinter. The
queen’s speech at the prorogation is
much more significant than usual. It
contains an important intimation re
garding the strained relations with the
French republic, which caused the great
est alarm in the foreign office a few
days previous.
French aggression in west Africa had
recently become so threatening that
England was almost forced to the con-.
elusion that it was intended to be an
open affront. The news has at length
come that the French troops occupied
Kumassi, the capital of Ashanti, last
month, and it is believed that the Eng
lish government possesses information
of a still bolder invasion of British ter
ritory. Now that parliament has ad
journed the country will be deprived of
official news of this and other foreign
complications during the remainder of
the’ year.—New York Sun’s London
Letter.

FRANCE AND GERMANY.
There Are bnrfare Sudleatlon# Tl>at These
Muy Bury the Hatchet.
The latest fad among certain classes
of volatile Frrenchmen is the most
amazing that can bo conceived. They
have been publicly expressing friendly
sentiments toward the people' on tho
other side of the Rhine. Stories have
reached Paris of German and French
officers and men drinking together in a
friendly wuy, each carefully on his own
side of the frontier, but shaking hands
and passing compliments across the fa
tal line. Two or three such incidents
have been reported before since Sedan,
but always aroused intense indignation
and demands for a court martial among
the French people. Now thej' are receiv -
ed with open approval in many circles,
and even some astonishing talk about
burying the hatchet has been indulged
in, yet the rash peacemakers have kept
a whole skin.
Emperor William’s sincere expres
sions of sympathy at the death of Pres
ident Carnot and his action in releasing
the French spies are the direct cause of
this almost incredible change of senti
ment. It is now announced, with what
truth it is yet impossible to say, that
this year’s celebration of the anniversa
ry of Sedan will be the last. This report
has greatly surprised and pleased the
French people, and there are manv
signs that they sincerely appreciate the
magnanimity of the German emperor.
