How many readers know where o
are located the graves of all the for- d
iner presidents of the United StaUs? t<
A writer in the New York World ,|
thus describes them: r
There is today no living exprusi- n
dent of this nation. Of President
Roosevelt's twenty-four predecessors a
the tombs are scattered over eleven |
States as follows. I
1. George Washington?Ills tomb |
stands near, and within sight of, the f
historic mansion on the sixty acr^s t
of his old plantation, now owned by
the Mount Vernon assOciatioa, ow v
the Virginia side of the Potomac riv r
or, sixteen miles below Washington, f
The burial vault is. a plain brick r
structure, built according to direc- t
tions left by Washington in his will, r
On a marble slab over the gates is
graven the inscription: t
"Within This Enclosure Itost the <
Remains of i
General George Washington." t
In plain view, just inside the Iron '
grill, are two marble sarcophagi, one ^
simply lettered "Washington," the j
other "Martha, Consort of Washing- i
ton."
2 and 0. John Adams and John <
Quincy Adams.?The bodies of both i
these patriots are entombed beneath I
the portico of the Unitarian church i
at Quincy, Mass. No monument or
exterior sign marks the spot where t
rest father and son, both great i
fighters for our national indepen- s
deuce. I
3. Thomas Jefferson.?He served i
his country for forty-four years, dying
a comparatively poor man, and <
was burled in the private burying 1
ground near the road leading to (
Montieello from Charlottesville, Yu. t
A little stone marked the spot for
llfty-seven years. As it was fast f
going to decay, congress finally <
eroded a monumciiit inscribe i, I
"Hero was i)\iriod Thomas Jefferson. i
Author of tlio Declaration of Inde- i
pendence." It is a granite shaft i
eighteen foot high. !
4. James Madison.?Like Jef- 1
ferson, Madison was buried on his '
own farm, this being near Monticollo, <
Va. For twenty-two years the spot
was unmarked, until finally public I
spirit started a subscription and
erected a shaft marked "Madison." <
It stands twenty-four feet high. It
is not even today positively determined
whether the monument stands
at the spot where the body was buried,
as there never had been any
marking of the grave.
f?. James Monroe.?Encyclopedias
and histories, as a rule, when they
mention the subject has President
Monroe buried in the old "Marble
Cemetrey" on Second street, New
York city. In realty his body rests
in Hollywood cemetery, Richmond.
Va. Tho grave is surrounded by n
steel grating, which was erected to
protect the sarcophagus after vandals
had twice stolen the copper nameplate.
For twenty-seven years Monroe's
body did rest in the New York
cemetery, in vault No. 117, belonging
to Robert Tillotson. In 1 858, at the
expense of the State of Virginia, the
body was removed.

eleven miles from Nashville,
Ten 11. A beautiful monument, fifteen
feet high, marks the spot, and
is inscribed "General Andrew Jackson,"
giving dates of birth and
death.
8. Martin Van Huron.?In a little
cemetery at Kinderhood, N. Y., rises
Van Huron's unpretentious shaft.
0. William llenry Harrison.?
"Tippercanoe" Harrison was a great
general and tighter in the battles of
his country, yet for fifty-six yeari
bis body rested in a dilapidated tomb
at Notrh Hond, Ohio, in the mid t]

New York, Nov. 24.?The body of
Mrs. Julia Fleischmann, who disappeared
most mysteriously from her
home, 18 West Eighty-sixth street,
November [? last, was found floating

search for his wife and offered $1,000
reward to any one finding her. dead
or alive. Coroner Schrady said lie
was convinced that 1t was a case
of suicide. There were no marks
on the body to warrant any otluv
conclusion.

TARIFF REFORMERS I,
i
\ F. ADAMS KAPBAINS THKIK ABSKM'K
FltOM IIEAItlNGS.
Ho Says the Ik'iiellciaries of the
TarifT Ijuw* as They Exist are
Kit Iter Thieves or Hogs.
Boston, Nov. 2 5.?The letter of
Charles Francis Adams, of Boston,
o* the tariff, to Congressman ..*e-1
Call, of Massachusetts, is in full as
follows:
The lion. Samuel W. McCall,
Washington, 1). C.?My Dear Mr.
MoCall: I nee in the Boston Herald
of this morning that the Presidentelect
is anxious that those who desire
a revision of the tariff in the
direction of reduced schedules should
make themselves heard in Washing
ton. It is claimed those asking that
the tariff schedules should remain
us they ure, or should he changed
only in the way of increase, are much
in evidence at the hearing now in
progress, and that the tariff reformer,
so-called, does not appear or is
silent.
You, my dear Mr. McCall, know
perfectly well the reason of this.
Those first referred to are directly
and pecuniarily interested; and ,n
such naturally divided into two classes.
Speaking after the fashion ??f
men, they are either thieves or hogs.
I myself belong to the former class.
I am a tariff thief, and 1 have a
license to steal. It hears tin- broad
seal of the United States, and is what
Us known as the "Dinglev tariff." !
stole under it yesterday; I am stealing
under it today. I propose to
steal under it tomorrow. The Government
lots forced me into this
position, and I both do and shall
take full advantage of it. I am.
therefore, a tariff thief, with a itcense
to steal! And?what are you
going to do about it?
The other class comes under tho
hog category; that is, they rush
squealing and struggling to the
Washington protection trough, and,
with all four feet in it, they proceed
to gobble the swill. Well acquainted
with those of this class, you know
their attitude and their utterance.
It is useless for ine to dilate upon
either. To this class I do no belong.
I am simply a tariff thief, but, us
I hare said, with a license to steal.
Hut, on the other hand, I am also
a tariff reformer. 1 would like to
see every protective schedule swept
out of existance, my own included
Meanwhile, what inducement have 1
to go to Washington on a public mission
of this sort? A mere citizen,
I represent no one; if I went I would
receive from the committee secretly
a respectful hearing, if any hearing
at all; and I would have to go n*
considerable expense, both of my
money and my time, the last of
which I can least afford.
My position in those respects is
exactly the position of myriads of
others. And they say we do not exist!
Meanwhile, I do know this; On
every occasion when of late I have
had occasion to address an audience
any reference to "protection
run mad," or to the tariff as "the
mother of trusts" has invariably
elicited a more spontaneous response
than any other utterance I could
make. This feeling is abroad, becoming
stronger, and will certainly
soon or late, lie in evidence at the
polls. Meanwhile, the tens of thou
sanus or persons wiio reel in thai
way, like myself, cannot afford either
the time or, more frequently,
the money to go to Washington to
ask to he heard before a committee
which they know in advance is bo; h
prejudiced and packed against them

I have in this letter set forth the
situation so far as a revision of the
tariff is concerned, as it exists within
your personal knowledge. You are
welcome to make such use of it before
the committee, or elsewhere,
as you see fit.
Meanwhile have it distinctly under- i
stood that my position is exactly '
the position of tens of thousands o?
others scattered throughout the
country. To ask us to put aside'
our business affairs, and at our own
expense go to Washington on a desperate
mission is asking a little too
much whether ,tlve demand comes
from the committee or from a
President-elect. I remain, etc.
