The present congross is certainly making
a big record. The Congressional Record
now consists of nearly 8,500 pages.
The heavy rains for the last few days
may prove to be rather harmful to cotton.
Unless the weather should be very unfavor
able the present crop will be a very large
one.
The city council yesterday showed a very
liberal spirit in dealing with the request of
the Macon and Atlantic railroad for a right

There is no doubt that if the railroad makes
the proper effort it can get here satisfactory
terminal facilities.
The announcement comes from Europe
that that peuuilosa royal scamp, ex-King
Milan, feeling that he is legally free to
marry again, will shortly wed an American
lady of great wealth. It was thought that
a name and title so sullied and stained as
that of Milan, although he is of royal blood,
would have no attraction for an American
girl, but it seems that there are some will
ing to make any sacrifice of fortune to
secure even such a doubtful honor as Milan
for a husband.
The army of the Argentine Republic con
sists of 7,400 men and the national guard of
350,000. The naval force is composed of
twenty-eight vessels. It would be
to the interest of the United
States to have peace established
in the Argentine Republic quickly.
American interests are as largo there as in
all of the Central American states com
bined, and it is particularly unfortunate
that the revolution should have occurred at
this time, when efforts were being made to
extend our commerce with that country.
The statement of the amount of our
commerce for the last fiscal year
furnishes another striking illustration
of our prosperity. The total value of our
imports and exports attained the highest
point they ever reached, aggregating
$1,647,192,014 as against $1,487,533,027 dur
ing the fiscal year 1889, an increase of *159,-
658.957. The excess of exports over imports
was $68,520,304. The value of exports of
raw cotton amounted to abiut $251,000,000.
The amount exported was larger than that
of any previous year, though the value of
the cotton exported in the fiscal year 1865
was greater, being $281,385,223, but this
large value was in consequence of t ie high
price of cotton at that time. The excess of
the value of exports over imports shows
that the balance of trade is largely in our
favor, over $63,000,000 —a most gratifying
showing.
A startling statement comes by cable
from Paris that the fashionable women of
that city, not content with perfuming their
clothing, their hair and their writing ma
terials, have extended their practice to per
fuming their flesh. The custom was started
by a lady who, being in the habit of using
morphine injections, noticed, after makiug
the injection unusually strong, that her
person exhaled the odor of morphine.
The suggestion thus accidentally con
veyed was a good one, and the
temptation was too great to bo re
sisted, so the lady injected a pungent per
fume in her veins, and she has become
odorous, increasingly odorous with in
creasing warmth. Imitators are, of
course, rapidly accumulating. To the mor
phine, opium, cocaine uqd the numerous
other kinds of "fiends" will now, no doubt,
be added the “perfume fiend.” What the
“fiends” need are hypodermic injectioas of
common sense instead of opiates and per
fumes,
The Fuenoa Ayres Trouble.
The situation in the Argentine Republic
is very serious. The revolutionary move
ment, which began last Friday with the
revolt of the Tenth regiment, which was in
garrison at Buenos Ayres, has gained
strength each day. According to our dis
patches this morning the government forces
were defeated in a battle in which there
were 1,000 killed and wounded. The gov
ernment house was bombarded and the gov
ernment was compelled to ask for a truce,
which was granted, but was limited to
twenty-four hours. Our dispatcher say that
the i.avy has joined the revolutionis’s and
thnt the triumph of the revolution appears
to be assured.
If the government is already beaten, it
must have been in a very weak and
m rally hail condition. It cirtainly can
not have had the confidence of the penple.
No government Having tohind it a bonlthy
and vigorous public sentiment could be
overturned by a comparatively small num
ber of revolutionists so quickly.
It is notorious that there has Leena great
dead of dissatisfaction with the government
in the Argentine Republic for quite a long
time. The popular belief is that high pub
lic officials are corrupt, and that they use
not only their positions to accumulate
money, but also the money that belongs to
the government. The Bank of Buenos
Ayres bears pretty much the same relation
to toe Argentine Republic as the Bank of
England does to the United Kingdom. Ahouti
July 1 the London newspapers announced
that the bank would be unable to pay its
regular quarterly dividend. There was at
once great discontent, not only in Buenos
Ayres, but throughout the Republic. Con
fidence in the integrity of the government,
which at no time within the last year or
two has been strong, was destroyed. The
clamor against those in power be
came so great that it was im
possible to quiet it. The bank
officials dociared that the bank was all
right, and that the payment of the quar
terly dividend had been put off until Octo
ber for prudent al reasons.
The people, however, wore not satisfied.
They haul good reasons to distrust the gov
ernment, and the discontent increased until
It culminated in revolt.
There seoms to be no doubt that the finan
cial affairs of the Argentine Republic are in
In a deplorable condition. There has been
a period of reckless speculation. There has
been a craze for promoting schemes of all
kinds by means of companies and syndi
cates, and London capitalists did more to
bring it about than even the speculators of
the republic. It is believed that officers of
the government were led away from the
strict line of duty by it, and that
the bank of Buenos Ayres, bv their
connivance or authority, loaned im
mense sums of money on insufficient
security to promote wild cat schemes in
which they or their friends were interested.
There was no trouble, of course, so long as
the schemes promised well and confidence
in them was unshaken. The timo came,
however, when it was apparent that
decoction with regard to them had been
practiced, and then the bank of Buenos
Ayres found itself in financial difficulties.
It will soon be known, in all probability,
whether or not the revolution will bo suc
cessful. The outlook for it is very favor
able. If the revolutionists should be suc
cessful the probability is thnt the govern
ment would pass into honester hands,
though it is by no means certain that thojtri
umph of tho revolutionists would increase
the prosperity of the country. It might
hinder it greatly, for a while at least,
because there would be discontent and a
very unsettled state of affairs.
Will the Fair be a Failure?
Assistant Postmaster General Clarkson,
who was in Chicago the other day, having
just made a tour of eleven of the western
states, predicted that the world’s fair would
be a failure if it should be held on a di
vided site. He said that he had talked
with many representative men in the
eleven stater he had visited and that they
were unanimous in the opinion that if the
site were a divided one the agricultural
exhibit would tie a sort of side show in
Jackson park, and therefore tho agricultu
ral states would take little or no part in the
fair. •
The queslion relative to the site will come
up in the Illinois legislature this week. The
legislature met yesterday, and a committee
representing the directors of the fair is at
the state capital to give that body al) tho
information in its possession with respect to
the proposed site. As the legislature is to
be asked to authorize the city of Chicago to
issue bonds, it is important that it shall be
thoroughly satisfied with respect to the site.
Doubtless tho agricultural states will en
deavor to influence the legislature against a
divided site.
The division of exhibits which the fair
directors propose to make, a statement of
which was published ia our dispatches yes
terday, is about as satisfactory one as it is
possible to make, but still the opposition to
a divided site remains as strong as ever.
Thefactis.it is apparent to any thinking
porson that a fair divided into two parts,
one part being several miles from the
other, would not stand as good a chance of
being a success as a fair that occupied only
one site. Tnere is no dou t that Mr.
Clarkson voices the sentiment of a great
majority of the people by his statement
that a divided site means failure.
The Thirteenth regiment of the Pennsyl
vania National Guard, when returning
from the state encampment to Wilkesbarre
on Saturday, looted the railroad restaurant
at Reading and committed other offenses.
One of the officers, who had stolen a silver
caster and was running to the train, was
arrested by a policeman. The policeman
was brutally beaten, but retained hold of
his prisoner and took him to the office of
the chief train dispatcher. The soldiers
seized their rifles and rushed to the rescue
of their comrade. A general fight ensued
between the railroad people a id the looters.
In order to restore peace the police
were compelled to release their prisoner.
The soldiers of the same regiment, on the
previous Saturday, when on their way to
camp carried off from the Reading restau
rant silver butter dishes, sugar bowls,
knives, forks and other valuables. Per
haps the looters were some of the followers
of Suermau in his march through Georgia,
or their descendants.
Ninety per cent, of Kansas farms
owned or rented by members of the farm
ers’ alliance are mortgaged. If the same
ratio of mortgaged farms exists among the
farmers who are not members of the
alliance, the lot of the Kansas farmer is not
a happy one. But whettier the ratio is
the same or not, the statement gives an
idea of the enormous burden the farmers
of the state are carrying under ourbanef
icient system of protection.
TITF. MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, JULY 29. 1890.
The Rsum Charges.
The committee of the House in its report
upon the resolution introduced by Repre
sentative Cooper, of Indiana, providing for
an investigation of the administration of
the pension bureau, says that it believes
that “Commissioner Raum, whose public
and private character has heretofore been
j without taint or suspicion, will gladly pro
mote the investigation" which bis been
ordered. The committee seems to have a
great deal of confidence in Commissi' Tier
Baum’s integrity, and it is to be hoped that
its confidence is not misplaced. Would not
the committee, however, have acted- more
wisely if it had contented itself with simply
ordering the investigation? Its expression
of confidence looks as if it desired to influ
ence the investigating committee to report
in Commissioner Hanoi's favor.
C immUsioner Raum himself has adopted
the policy of silence. He has not said a
word in the public prints since the charges
were made. He has not demanded an in
vestigation. He has followed tbs example
of Senator Quay, who has never publicly
denied the charges made against him in
connection with tho Pennsylvania treasury.
If the charges are without foundation he
ought to have denied them at once and
insisted that they be inquired iuto.
W hat are tho charges? One is that Com
missioner Raum has granted favors of
great pecuniary value to Pension Claim
Agent Lemon, favors that had previously
been denied him by the pension bureau, and
that in return Lemon endorsed Commis
sioner Raum’s note for $25,000. Another is
that he has an interest in a patent refrig
erator, the stock of which is considered to
be almost worthless. Those of the pension
bureau employes who have purchased this
stock he has promoted.
Representative Cooper says that he can
prove the charges, but he knows that he
will have pretty hard work in doing so to
the satisfaction of the investigating com
mittee that Speaker Reed will appoint. It
seems to be the intention of Speaker Reed
and the administration to shield the com
missioner if it is possible to do so. This ad
minnftration seems to have poor luck in
getting a fit man for commissioner of pen
sions.
Boycott Talk.
There is no use talking any more about
the foolish proposition to boycott the busi
ness meD of the north in the event of the
passage of tho force bill. That proposition,
as tho Morning News pointed out several
days ago, is doad. It never had any vitality
except that which the indorsement of Gov.
Gordon gave it, and his indorsement would
not have attracted much attention if ho had
not been governor of the great state of
Georgia.
The talk about the southern people in
dorsing it is. of courso, the purest nonsense.
Not a newspaper in the south of com
manding influence indorsed it, and
not a southern governor except
Gov. Gordon, and it is probable
that be has come to the conclusion that he
let his feelings get the better of his judg
ment, None of the trade bodies or business
men’s meetings in the south have indorsed
it, and there is no probability that it will
receive indorsement anywhere.
The Morning News two weeks or more
ago mapped out the course for the south to
pursue with respect to tho force bill when
it advised the trade bodies of the south to
appeal to the business of the north to use
their influence to defeat the bill. This
course has been pursued because it was
recognized as the right one and was based
on common sense.
M. Stambouloflf, the prime minister of
Bulgaria, has decided to announce that
country’s independence and make Prince
Ferdinand king, regardless of the wishes of
the czar or anybody else. It is, therefore,
no wonder that Russia, failing to win M.
Stambouloflf to her side, branded him as a
dictator. He is a man of wonderful influ
ence, recourses and ability, and the
manner in which he has triumphed
over his political opponents is proof of
his possession of statesmanlike qualities.
His fortunes are bound up with those of
Prince Ferdinand, for whose acceptance of
the Bulgarian throne he is mainly responsi
ble. M. Stambouloff’s proposed establish
ment of an independent kingdom, with
Prince Ferdinand as king, is in defiance of
Russia’s dem ind for Prince Ferdinand’s
removal, the election of anew prince of the
orthdox faith. and the engage
ment on the part of Bulgaria to aot as Rus
sia’s ally in case of war. If M. Stam
bouloff’s plan succeeds it will be tho crown
ing work of his able ministry. The Bul
garians cling with the utmost tenacity to
the national idea, and M. Stambouloflf has
thoir support in this movement. Alone
among the nations of Europe, they have no
national debt. They have a great capacity
for self-help, and have accomplished much
in the way of material progress. These
things should entitle them to the sympa
thies of every lover of free government.
Of all the silly gossip about Henry M.
Stanley which has been cabled to this coun
try, the following from the Philadelphia
Inquirer takes the leal: “Henry M. Stan
ley is the victim of more criticism than
usually falls to the lot of a commoner. The
general gossip of the clubs now is that he
made a bad blander on the occasion of his
marriage in allowing the bride to wear the
queen’s gift of a medallion portrait of her
self. The gift was intended as a mirk of
special favor, and was, in fact, a substitute
for a royal order, which Stanley as an
American could not accept.” Now, here is
something new. By what law is an Ameri
can citizen, not holding a public office, pro
hibited from accepting a royal gift or deco
ration? Have not Americans had titles
and decorations conferred upou them by
kiugs and the pope ? Banker Kelly and the
Couut Joannes, for instance. William I.
wanted to make Bayard Taylor a count,
but he declined the honor both because he
held office under the federal government,
and because it was against his principle as
an American citizeu and against the princi
ple of American institutions, but there is
nothing to prevent a private citizeu from
accepting royal honors if he should choose
to do so.
There will be sorrow and disappointment
at Newport. The great breakfast which
Ward McAlliste- had arranged in honor of
royalty will be like playing "Hamlet’’
without the prince of Denmark, for his
royal highness Prince George of Wales
will not bo there. His ship has been de
tached from Admiral Watson's squadron,
and the noble 400 will have to be content to
do honor to a mere admiral.
So far the only loss on account of the
Behring sea controversy has been sustained
