To Hon. James G. Blaine. How It- Was Done. W ashington , June 4. —Blaine’s resig nation was taken to the white house by his private secretary, who placed it in the hands of the president about one o ’clock. Soon after reading it thespres ident descended to the east room and held the usual Saturday afternoon pub lic reception. Two hundred people were present, none o f whom, as he shook the president’s hand, could have told from the cool, collected manner that anything unusual had happened. Indeed the president seemed in better spirits than usual and made felicitiouz replies to the greetings of visitors. After the reception the president re turned to the library and addressed the letter t o Blaine accepting his resignation He gave it t o Private Secretary Halford, with instructions t o deliver at once. Mr. Halford took it to Blaine’s house and placed it in his hands. This was the whole transaction. A representative of the Associated press called at Blaine’s residence shortly after the correspondence was made public and asked him to supplement it with an ex planation. Blaine smiling but deliber ately replied: “ The correspondence ex plains itself and I have not a word to add to it.” The president was next called upon and aBked if he was willing to say any thing regarding the correspondence. His response, though courteous, was equally emphatic. He said, “ Nothing wha tever.” The president and Blaine were seem ingly in excellent spirits, and each, de clining to talk upon the event of the day or its effects, turned the conversation to other topics, with marked composure.. NEWS ITEMS. Pope Leo has decided to send a special exhibit to the World’s fair and asks that space be engaged for the same. Such a step has never before been taken in regard to the World’s fair by papal au thorities. The sonate has passed the bill introduced by Sanders providing for the holding of terms of court in the Montana district. Under this bill Beaverhead, Madison and Silver Bow counties are to consti tute the southern division of the district of Montana. The senate passed Mr. Power’s bill creating two additional land dis tricts in Montana, one to be known as the Northern district with an office at Port Benton, the other to be called the Yellowstone district with the land office at Billings. Commodore Power and Director of the Mint Leech were at Minne apolis. A statement prepared at the treasury department shows there was a net increase o f $6,437,985 in circulation during the month of May and a net increase of $7,910,- 008 in rnonev and bullion in the treasury during the same iieriod. Advices from Mauritus confirm the statement that 1,200 persons were killed and 4,000 injured in the recent hurricane. A cyclone visited McCook, Ne braska, last Saturday and lif ted a church containing 100 school children. The churcli was raised from its foundations and thrown down in one mass of ruins, burying about sixty people, together with the pastor o f the church and sev eral children. Many of the chil dren who were leaving were hurt by flying timbers, but as far as known none were fatally injured. Wild excitement followed. Soon all were released from their im prisonment. The timbers had formed an arch over the heads of those who were in the church. Several of the children are serious ly injured and it is feared they can not live but a few hours. The Great Northern hotel on the “ West Side,” at Great Falls, was burned Sunday morning. Loss $7,000. Last Saturday a stoi;m having all the marks of a mid-winter blizzard raged all day at Cheyenne, W y o ming. A blinding snow fell eight inches deep On the level and the wind piled it in great drifts. Traffic was suspended and freight trains were put on sidings. The storm was general throughout the state ami caused severe loss in cattle and sheep herds. It was also feared t hat there would be loss o f life in the mountains. Count Leo Tolstoi, the well- known writer and philanthropist, is seriously ill. Attorney General Sioekfon has made an application for an injunc tion to dissolve the Beading rail road-combine on the ground 'that it is an agreement for the purpose of monopolizing the anthracite coal trade. A preliminary injunc tion was granted. Senator Hiscock has presented a memorial signed by Elihii Root, Horace Porter, Jos. M.\ Drexel, Cornelius Bliss and ethers, asking that a commission be appointed to inquire into the system of natural ization in New York city, to the end that remedial legislation be devised and enacted with reference thereto. They set forth that t he immigration records of ’9L show that more than 200,000 foreigners came to this country from Europe, but only a small portion of whom can either read, write or speak the English language, and are wholly ignorant o f our laws and the prin ciples of our government; that there seems to be a reason for the belief that immediately prior to the last election in New York, state, naturalization was accom panied by great irregularities and extensive fiauds. From a single court of New York, during the first 20 days of October, nearly 7,- 000 naturalization papers were issued, o f which about 6,000 were by one judge. It is obvious that the system o f naturalization which can produce results with such startling rapidity, must be defec tive, and there is reason to believe that, the results were made possi ble by wholesale* perjury; that these evil practices are constantly adding the most undesirable ele ment to our community .by the surrender o f the material part, of our power of aliens, ignorant and wholly unfit, to govern the nisei ves or us. Backers of John L. Sullivan and Jim Corbett have deposited $2,500 a side, the second installment of the $10,000 a side for which they are to fight. Phil Dwyer was chosen final stake holder.
