1 PAR* A YEAR
About the Extent of the President's
Mercy.
Hut Ho II an no Sympathy Fur the Rubber* of tv I li
ons und Orphans, mid Hunker I IHi will Troll.-
lily Stay at Auburn.
Washington, October 24.—The petition
for the pardon of Banker Fish, of Now
York, will be back pretty soon, and the
president will be called on to act upon it.
He will do no, and the chances are that his
Verdict will not be favorable to Mr. Fish.
Mr. Cleveland is a merciful man and exer
cises the pardoning power nearly every
day of his presidential life, but it is not on
this sort or men. Indeed, he bus made no
hesitation in expressing himself os op
posed to pardoning men who do tilings
that they know better than to do. “I re
member a ease went to him not long ago,”
said a prominent official of the department
of justice. "It was an application for
the pardon of a couple of young boys down
in Texas for robbing the mails. It had
been shown in the testimony that the boys
had each of them lost both parents in
childhood. This seemed to touch the
president, and from the first ho seemed in
clined to think kindly of tho ease. He
■poke of the fact that the boys had never
had the advantage of home training, and
that they probably did not realize the
enormity of tiieir offense. This fact
seemed to have a good deal of weight with
him, and 1 think it was only through
that that they were pardoned. But for
the experienced men who commit crimes
ho has no sympathy. IIe was talk
ing of some men not long ago
whose friends hod applied for a pardon. It
wns the case of some bank officer who had
been sentenced for appropriating the funds
of the bank. He did not seem at all in
clined to grant tho pardon, and after a
thorough examination of the case marked
it ‘denied.’ Talking of it to a friend lie
expressed himself in the strongest terms
•gainst showing any clemency to any man
who has deliberately taken possession of
the money of widows and orphans inlrustr
ed to his keeping or the keeping of any
institution with which he is connected.
He was very emphatic about it, too, mid
brought his list down on tho table in a
way that showed he meant every word that
he said.”
“Does tho president have a good many
applications for pardons?”
“Does lie? Weill should say so. Never
a day passes in which he is not applied to
to pardonsomebody. They come from all
directions and relate to all sorts of people
und all sorts of crimes.”
"And are all those received and acted
upon?,’
“Yes. Tlinv are sent to the pardon clerk
ol the department of justice. He sends
them back to tiie district attorney, where
the case was tried for iiis opinion in tho
case. The district attorney makes his
recommendation and generally accom
panies it with the papers in tho case
often giving a transcript of the testimony
in tne ease. . These the pardon clerk dl-
? jests and briefs up for the president, niak-
ng a clear statement of the ease and re
commending tiie action to lie taken. Then
thu ease goes to tho president and he de
cides upon it. Sometimes he acts simply
upon tho recommendation of the district
attorney and the pardon clerks, but often
11 the case is a very important one he takes
hold of it personally and calling for tho
transcript of the testimony he wades
trough the whole of it, giving many hours
to this sort of thing.”
“This must require an immense amount
®f labor ou the part ol' tho president, does
it not?”
; “Yes, a great deni. It is wonderful!the
amount of work that man can perform.
He doositall with his own hand, i jo. In
stead of having the work done by a cleric
or an amanuensis, he does it himself. Take
his messages, for instance. He writes them
•11 out with his own hand instead of dic
tating them. That is the ease with his
correspondence. Why, hero is a note sent
a day or two ugo about some matter of ofil •
cial detail, so unimportant Dial it could
just as well have been written by a clerk
or an amanuensis. But no, it is written by
tho president's own hand, every word of
It. That in his method in dealing with his
work of all kinds. 11a not only does it
thoroughly, but does it with his own
hands.”
“How many applications for pardons do
you suppose there ire presented to tue
president, in a year?”
“Probably something over a thousand.”
“What |n o portion of those does ho act
favorably upon?”
“Probably about one-fourth.”
“Ho he piobably pardons about 260 peo
ple in u year?”
"Ho ran a little over that last year. The
total was about 300.”
HENRY'S DEFEAT PROBABLE - .
A lllxli Tariff Republican l’lnlferni DcinorriitU'
Camllilatc in Dungcr of Losing His District.
Washington, October 24.—It comes
pretty straight from tho ninth Virginia
congressional district that ox-Congressman
Bowen, who iH now the republican candi
date, is considerably la the lead, and more
than likely to be elected. This is the white
district in which tho MahoneltB were suc
cessful up to 1861. In the latter year Cou-
nally F. Trigg, democrat, was elected by
1200 majority over Bailey, republican, and
in 1885 Gov. Doe had about tiie same ma
jority over John H. Wise. Unit summer a ]
democratic congressional convention, re- :
crennt to democratic principles, repudiated •
Trigg because he voted to take up the Mor- 1
risen bill and nominated one H. It. Henry '
on a republican high tariff platform. I
Henry’s defeat by Bowen lias boon looked
for and no good democrat is likely to shed
tears if such be the outcome of the elec
tion, as now seems more than probable.
K.xrltvllu'Ut in Texas.
• Great excitement lues been caused in the
vicinity of Paris, Texas, by the remarkable
recovery of Mr. J. E. Corley, who was so
helpless he could not turn iu bed, or raise
his head; everybody said he was dying of
consumption.' A trial bottle of I)r. King’s
New Discovery was sent him. Finding re
lief, ho bought a large bottle and a box of
Dr. King’s New Life Pills: by the time he
had taken two boxes of Pills and two bot
tles of the Discovery, lie was well and had
gained in tiesli thirty-six pounds.

Gentlemen-1 was stricken down with con-

1 had a cough that seemed to contract my
chest to half Its natural slr.e. Was unable to
rest day or night, except upon my hack, and
to make the least exertion bv reason of iny
breathing being so quies, and short. I com-
rnene.’d the use of your Duffy’s Pure Malt

more good than is claimed tor them. Lung
