[ Washington cor. New York Post.

Last Monday there occurred one of the moat theatrical scenes ever witnessed in the United States Senate Chamber ’Dramatic” is the word commonly used, but that It is too dignified to describe this episode will be seen

Ybom what follows.

While Mr. Gorman was standing on the floor of the Senate In the attitude Of a Tombs lawyer preparing to make A hypnotised Jury believe that black 'Wa* white; while he conjured up a gmthetic break in his utterance and a •uggestlon of choking back an outburst of tears; while he was manufacturing a mock indignation which Imposed on bo intelligent spectator; while he was lllng up his coat-sleeves and throw- | ifng back his head, and calling his witesses to, the stand one by ohe to tell eir own stories In their own way, this time his henchmen were circuting among the newspaper correndents the story that he had Just e from the White House, where he ad served notice of his purpose and here tl^e President had pleaded and reateaed and tried every art to dtsde him from making these damagg revelations. The story put into circulation was very circumstantial—that he President had asked for the interriew in the hope of heading off the \ speech, -“and ‘that the meeting between ithe two., great men had been arranged

by Secretary Lament.

Mr. Lamont’s name was chosen "to this part in the story unquestionbecause the secretary has always Wo red a policy of conciliation and harwlthin the party, and the public id be more likely to accept the of his intervention on this acJount. The scheme worked well. Many (•Wefe deceived by it. To this day newspapers in various parts of the country •re still printing the statement thad. Mr. Cleveland played the suitor and Uiat Mr. Lament acted as go-between. Story That I* Wholly False. This is wholly false. It is unjust alike to the Pesident and to the Secretary of War, neither of whom did what he has been accused of doing. There are two documents in existence—unless Mr. Gorman, tnt his prudence, has made away with them—which cut an important Bgute in that day’s theatricals. One is a note from the President to Mr. Gorman; the other is a note to the same man from his partner in th^ bunko business Senator Brice, of Ohio. To understand their bearing It will .be necessary to re-

hearse a few Incidents,

Messrs. Gorman And Brice perceived from the popular enthusiasm which the President’s letter to Chairman Wilson .had aroused throughout the country that something must be done to save them(Hrlves from rout. In the first place, the public must be made to believe that the President was frightened at a pending disclosure of his duplicity; in the second' place, the President must be made to believe' that he had blundered In carrying i bis criticism so far, and that the Senate -rompromisers had a real ground for their trance against him. If they could induce the President to weaken bevsr so little, immediately following the circulation of a story that he was frightened, the combination would cause a gnoral revulsion‘among the people, to the damage of the President, and, as a consequence, to the advantage of Messrs. •Gorman and Brice. ^ Accordingly Mr. Brice laid siege to the 'President. He did-not hint that Mr, Gorjnan was about to attack the administration; he did not suggest that the attack •be headed off before it was too late; he dwelt entirely upon the injustice unintentionally done Mr. Gorman and the compromisers by the President’s It would be a Just as well as a jndly act on the President’s part, he to jnvtte Mr. Gorman to the White ana talk the situation over with Vi)f,9rnerely to show the Senator from tar^agd that the severe phrases of the ’Uef to Mr. Wilson were not to be inr]preted as a personal affront. Knows What “Bunko” Is. ■ Mr. Cleveland reads the newspapers enough to know what a bunko game is. He scented one at once. No man of intelligence, he reasoned within himself, could honestly interpret his letter os ha\'Ing any other meaning than that which (t bore upon its surface. If any man did accept it as a direct affront to himself, It must be because of a pricking conecumee. If any man knew what the letter »ald and meant, and still persisted in putting another interpretation upon it, that man was merely a meddlesome fel-

low seeking a quarrel, and his feelings deserved no consideration. He was dir-jln-Hncd, therefore, to pay any attention

. to Mr Brice’s advice.

► But Mr. Brice was not to be got rid of ■■■ ■P* ■■P**^* *r. rnslly. He persisted. He pleaded with ing, nor did his son J>ewts. Mr. Curtis,

je air of one who had i. strong persrn ii 1 terest In the issue. This nut -a someit different face on the affair. What Cleveland did not think It worth » to do for his ow i sake, and what saw no reason for doing on gener.l rluciples, he was willing to do as a matof good nature if It would make Mr. re any more eomforcable. So he wrota i note. Inviting Mr. Gorman to call—u note, but long enough to have this

- * -* Senator Brice—”

„ Ir. Gorman has destroyed that or given It away it is now in his sion, It will make an interesting A,” to be put Into an appendix bis famous kpeech of Monday last he publishes It in pamphlet fet in

an air of surprise as genuine as if It had been the subject of several dreesrehearsals before the, mirror. He runs his eye over the superscription, and his brow darkens with Delsarte’s firstquality expression of foreboding. In an instant be has ripped off the envelope and devoured the contents of

the sheet inside.

‘‘This illustrates what I have been saying,” he remarks with a voice full of anxiety, as he passes the note to the President. Mr. Cleveland reads it without visible agitation. It is from Senator Brice, a very hurried scrawl, urging Senator Gorman to hasten to the Arlington Hotel and meet the writer as soon as he can get away from the White House. New and serious complications have just come to Mr. Brice’s knowledge which threaten the whole tariff feform program with irretrievable ruin unless they two can devise a so-

lution.

Did the. President reel and totter panic-stricken? No. Did he beg Mr. Gorman to forget that horrid Wilson letter, and offer to take it all back if Brice and he and the rest would get together and fix things up before it was too late? Not at all. Did he propose to wash his hands of the whole business, express his regret that he had ever attempted to meddle with it, and pledge himself to sign any bill Congress could be induced to send him? Not by any means. • He simply said he was sorry that the tariff managers in the two Houses of Congress seem to find so many difficulties in the way of reaching an understanding, wished them better luck In the future, and hoped that the new and serious complications alluded to by Senator Brice would not prove so threatening at closer view. Gormnn Bowed Ont. And so there was nothing left but for Mr. Gorman to bow himself out, and all the way up to the Capitol curse the luck which threw in his way such a sluggish, unimpressionable creature as this Buffalo lawyer! By the time he had reached the Senate chamber he was at a white heat. He had set out with 'the Idea of making a rather vigorous speech, but tqe positive venom which poured into it as he went along was an afterthought. Read in the light of these facts, which can be supported by documentary proofs if Mr. Gorman dares produce them, the record of last Monday’s business by the senatorial bunko firm stands thus: 1. An interview granted by the Intended Victim to the Senior Partner, in response to the beseeching appeals of the Junior Partner. 2. A decoy letter from the Junior Partner to the Senior Partner, delivered to the latter at the hour and minute agreed upon, in the presence of the Intended

Victim.

3. Decision of the Intended Victim — who turns out not to be such a precious innocent as they took him for—that he doesn't care to invest. 4. Desperate resolve of the Senior Partner to smash things generally, in order to avenge himself upon the Intended

Victim.

Moral: The sugar trust had better dispose of its present bunko outfit at a sacrifice. and hire a more competent firm of steerers. MR. STEVENSON SAID NO. That Fatal Word Separated His Eldest Danghter and Her Lover. Washington, D. C., August 2. — Miss Mary Stevenson, the eldest daughter of the Vice-President, Is the heroine of a romantic love affair and but for the firmness displayed by the Vide-Presldent and his son, Lewis, it is said, she might at this time be enjoying a honeymoon as Mrs. George F. Curtis, Instead of inhaling the breeze at Bar Harbor, separated from her lover. Mr. Curtis is a clerk in the law library of the United

States Supreme Court.

Miss Stevenson first met Mr. Curtis in May. Mrs. Senator Blanchard had given an excursion party down the Potomac river to Mt. Vernon and it was through her that Miss Stevenson was introduced to Mr. Curtis. The young man was much impressed by the Vice-President's daughter, and the other members of Mrs. Blanchard’s party thought she received his marked attentions favorably. Mr. Curtis is poor, but he has a good family name and excellent prospects professionally. Hie ancestors for three generations won distinction in the United States navy. His grandfather, Stephen Casin, of Pennsylvania, received a gold medal for distinguished bravery at the battle of Tieonderega. Young Curtis is a graduate of Georgetown University and has been admitted to practice before the

The next 1 stage was to impress the President, a •tblld man with a pernicious habit of pooh-pooing scares, and an irritating Indisposition to admit that he was wrong when the whole American people agree with him that he is right. He must be made to think that there were great Hons in the path of the tariff reform, and that the senior Senator from Maryland and the Junior Senator from Ohio were honestly enlisted in an effort 'to overcome them So a plan was hatched, of which the coat of execution was limited to a sheet of paper, an envelope and a fee of a quarter of a dollar to a **idr^Go5wiaa mwsented himself at the White Horse.

accompanied by his friend, Cadet Tompkins, of the Navy, called at the VicePresident's hotel one- evening and left a rote for Miss Stevenson, inviting her to Join Mrs. Senator Blanchard’s picnicking party to Great Falts the following day. FalUncr to receive any answer he called the following morning and left a second note. Later he learned that neither of his messages had been delivered, and he sent up his card. Lewis Stevenson came down in response to it and called Mr. Curtis aside, saying: "Let’s take a walk.

I want to have a talk with you.”

In the conversation that followed Mr. Curtis was told that his attentions to Miss Stevenson must cease; that the Vice-President desired it, and would enforce his order personally If it was not complied with. The day following Lewis Stevenson met Mr. Curtis, returned his ring and photograph, and warned him not to do anything that would incur the

wrath of the Vice-President.

The Stevenson family then left town. Their first objective point was Cape May. A few olys later the family arrived at Hotel Po what tan, Charleston, W. Va, Mrs. Stevenson and her daughter remained there only a few davs and were next announced at Bar Harbor, where they are now- supposed to be. In the last week Mr. Curtis has sought, through a mutual friend, who volunteered to go to Bar Harbor for that purpose. to re-estabMSh communication with Miss Stevenson, dr a* least learn from her why his attentions had suddenly proved so offensive. Nothing has come of

this mission so far.

Miss Mary Stevenson is said to lye about twenty-three years old. while OurtR is twenty-eight. She is a strikingly goodlooking girl and has never lacked admirers from the day she entered Washington society. She is modest, sensible, admired

and commended.

It is said Henry James had her ir. mind when he wrote "The Princess Casslmassima,” and that she also inspired William-Black’s “Sunrise.” She is the youngest of the nine “Pretty Potters," as they were called In London some years since—nine sisters, all dark and handsome and the children of a wealthy Lancashire manufacturer, and of the woman who was the most intimate friend Herbert Spencer has ever known. Her mother was a woman of remarkable learning. Though giving birth to tern chlluren (the only son died young) and being the very competent head of her household, she had a profound knowledge of Greek and Latin, read her Bible In Hebrew, and was the chosen Intellectual companion of George Eliot as well as of Herbert Spencer. She was, however, decidedly eccentric, one of her horrors being of any excess of flesh. She looked upon being fat as only short of being criminal, and declared it was Impossible for her to either like or respect a person who had any excess of adipose tissue. It is said that no one ever saw a fat person in her house. She allowed herself and her children only a fixed number of ounces of food a day; having ascertained what weight of food was necessary to health, she was of the opinion that another mouthful more was mere grossness and not to be permitted. The Nine Muses. Whatever one may think of this theory. It is certain that the nine daughters grew up tall, wholesome, ruddy and beautiful. They were all women of superior intellects and marked talents, and the eight elder sisters marrisd men distinguished in law. medicine, literature

and politics.

The youngest, Beatrice, was easily the most gifted and beautiful of them all, and Mr. Spencer was so delighted with her intelligence that he made her education his especial charge and strove in every way to develop all her capacities. It was supposed, her wealth, beauty and brains being considered, that she would probably make the most brilliant mar-

a great belle for several seasons and had distinguished offers, but before she was twenty-three she was suddenly seized with a disgust for her brilliant surroundings and began to visit and

ditions of some of the workers, and finally putting on the garments of a

Her Marriage. Her article w-as printed at once, and all England was aghast. Parliament took the matter up and appointed a committee to Investigate her charges; with the result that a whole .series of laws were passed regulating the employment of labor by the “sweaters." Miss Potter returned to England to find herself famous. But she refused to return to her old life and associates. She joined the ranks of the socialists and devoted herself to the task of overturning the present constitution of society. All the long-haired political refugees became her friends, the Russian exile. Prince Krapotkine, among them, end she took up her residence in a cheap hotel in the East End, where she was always In conference with trades unionists, reformers and the whole race of those who had a grievance against society. Naturally a young and beautiful recruit with wealth with which to forward their schemes was soon the queen of a motley court of the discontented. Rumors of her eccentricities drifted to her friends in the West End from time to time such as that she had—much against a natural distaste—learned to smoke, so that the shirt-sleeved gentlemen with pipes in their mouths who so constantly surrounded her would feel completely at their ease. It was always hoped by her friends that she would eventually grow tired of her whim, and return to them, but two years ago she surprised every one by a sudden marriage to Sidney Webb, a little frowsy, dusty, shabbylooklng socialist, of that milder type known as “Fabian.” Her West End friends did npt scruple to say. that he had a vets' respectful appreciation of Miss Potter’s large fortune, and might gradually bring her back to the flesh pots. However that may be. Mrs. Webb had plainly no idea of coming. She determined to try the experiment of living on £300 a year, set up housekeeping in a little East End lodging, and plunged Into the preparation of a great history of the trades unions, for the completion of which she demanded her husband’s aid. Now her work is oat and again her name is in every one’s mouth, and very respectful admiration has she called forth by her scholarly and exhaustive

laborers. V

When Beatrice Webb’s friends read

does not claim that there is any immedi- | ate necessity for additional ground, but “to provide for the future.” What the future needs may be very hard to tell. ! The probabilities are that at an early | date a great demand will be made that ' the High School shall be located nearer the center of population, which will, in a few years be about a mile north of its present location. Within ten or fifteen years, when it is said we shall need more room, business will have begun to move up Pennsylvania street and our High School, instead of being desirably located in a quiet, pleasant locality, will begin to be surrounded by\shops, business and saloons. Already one saloon Is within two hundred and fifty feet of the school and has attracted several scholars within Its doors. How very undesirable a location would Be with half a dozen or more of such places within one or two squares of the school. It is a great mistake to look upon the present location as one which will be desirable, or even suitable, within fifteen years from this date. If the property in question was presented to the board, it could not improve any part of it. The bonded indebtedness is within $10,000 of the legal limit, while, a floating and temporary debt hangs over the board that is appalling. It is bad policy for either persons or corporations to extend their promises to pay as long as any one can be found who will accept them. We should only buy what Is absolutely and immediately

necessary.

The price asked for that ground is entirely too much, and far beyond what any business man would think of paying for it for any purpose. If it enhances in value so as fairly to sell for $60,000 in twenty years from this time, Indianapolis real estate will have made good advances in value. In brief, the situation, as I see it, is that we do not need the ground now or within ten years; that when more

room is needed it will not be wanted near the present High School; that the | botti-d has neither the money nor credit j to erect any additional buildings, and I certainly should not speculate in real i estate (t can not use, giving therefor i obligations far in excess of the worth of the property.

GOLD EXPORTS AND IMPORTS.

New York Post. The Financial Chronicle publishes a j table of our gold exports and Imports for j fourteen years, beginning with the year j 1SS1. Each ye^r Is the fiscal year ending i June 30. Consequently the table is con;- ! plete from July 1, 1880, to June 30. 1S04. The result Is somewhat surprising In the smallness of our net exportation of gold, ! considering that we are one of the largest ' gold-producing countries in the world, j The totals are these: Exports, fourteen years, $006,767,791. 5 J < Imports. $494,041,410. Net exports, $72,726,031. During this time the country' has pro- j duced, according to the reports of the ' director of the mint, $460,000,000 gold. The ; use of gold in the industrial arts during ! this time has been not more, but proba- I bly less, than $!82,000.000. Now, if we add i together the net exports and the amount I used In the Industrial arts, and subtract the same from the gold production of the country’, we find that there has been a net addition to our gold money during the fourteen years of $204,000,000. The mint estimates of the gold In the country for monetary uses July 1, 1893, was $664,275,835. I As all of this was in the Treasury and ! bank vaults, except $66,577,€50, it can not ; be considered an overestimate. The net i exports from July 1, 1883. to July 1. 1S94, j according to the Chronicle, were $4,500,0iX). while; the gold production of the country = for the same time was with In a small j fraction of $36,000,000. being $2,955,000 increase over the previous year, from | which should be deducted $13,000,000 used ; in the arts. Therefore at the beginning of the present month there w'as a net increase of $18,500,000, making a total of $682,775,3® of gold for monetary uses. This ought to quiet the fears of alarmists.
