Vovorf Hoy's Report of the Soldiers' uomo at Jrie. Mii. Editor. I have returned from Erie and the soldiers home, where I had taken Thomas White, of Post 58, G. A.

It. 1 he place well deserves the name of home, for it is a home indeed, and a better home, I am positive, than many of the inmates nave eypr had before. There are at present over 300 old soldiers there, four from our city Mr. John Harvey, D. S.

h.err, a printer, uaniei Mcuarrel and a Mr. tager. On Thursday evening I beheld a sight I shall never forget; I stood at tho entrance of the large" dining room while the inmates were at supper. The pure white coverings ofthe many tables, and the white heads and flowing white beards of the men surrounding the tables, made the handsomest pidlure I have ever seen. Among them were some unable to wait on themselves, but' they were kindly cared for and fed by a comrade as tenderly as a mother cares for her babe, who could look at that picture without shedding a tear and saying God bless them.

Must have a harder heart than I have. I ate supper and breakfast there. Each meal was fit for a king. They arc not limited to or quantity at meals, but on the contrary remain at tne tables until they are thoroughly satisfied. Kich man has his own bed room, in which are an iron bedstead, woven wire mattress and a hair mattress.

two white sheets and new clean blankets; plenty pf wearing apparel, and their own bureau vor wardrobe to keen things in. They have a library, ohanal and smoking room. The smoking room is also a place for games, having pool and billiard tables, as well as dominoes, checkers, chess and card. In the Home ia also a hospital, with all the comforts and appliances. They also have their own conservatory, filled with lovciy plants of all descriptions.

As to their treatment, I asked many of them how they were treated. One handsome old man said in reply "Comrade, I was one of the first to enter this home, and I have always been treated with the most affectionate kindness." And that was the answer I received from all. The Home i a erand place, well governed, and occu 1 uy Wu ot Kioa noble men and our vOWi.n try's protect ora F. II. Hoy.

GROVER'S CALL HE SOUNDS A LOUD ALA It 31 Danger and Distress Require an Extra Session. Washington June 30. President Cleveland yielded to day to the pressure for an extra early session of Congress, and this evening issued tho following proclamation: "Executive Mansion, Wjtsmxc.Tox, June 30, 1893. "Whereas, The distrust and apprehension concerning the financial situation which pervade all business circles have already caused great loss and damage to our people and threaten to cripple our merchants, stop the wheels of manufacture, bring distress and privation to our farmers, and withhold from our working men the wages of labor; "Ad, whereas, the present perilous condition is largely the result of a financial policy which the executive branch of the Government finds embodied in unwise laws which must be executed until repealed by Congressr Now, therefore. Grover Cleveland, President of the United States, in performance of a Constitutional duty, do, by this proclamation, declare that an extraordinary occasion requires the convening of both Houses of the Congress of the United States at the Capitol in the city of Washington on the 7th day of August next, at 12 o'clock noon, to the end that the people may be relieved through legis lation irom present ana impending aan .1 ana distress.

ah imiwcDuiiea loan as mpmiw of the Fifty third Congress are equi.Xo:Icu.aa, WM being run out on rolls aii those entitled to act as memki plate to take notice of this proclamation and attend at the time and place above stated. "Gbove Cleveland." A General Surprise. The proclamation was a surprise to nine tenths of the Congressmen, who have been watching the progress of affairs, and who have been trying to glean information from the White House. There was a settled conviction that Mr. Cleveland would not issue a call for an extra session to convene before the first Monday of September.

It is said that his final decision was only reached at the Cabinet meeting this morning. After the meeting had adjourned there was tho strictest secrecy observed, and the action taken by the President was not made known until this afternoon. At least one member of the Cabinet when approached this afternoon and asked when Congress would meet, stated emphatically that it would not bo brought together before the first of September. It is supposed that the President, after cing over the situation this morning with his Cabinet advisors, came to the conclusion that it is possible to repeal the Sherman bilL An uncertainty with regard to this is said to have prevented him issuing his call several days ago. A Ilepoal Could Uo AcccraplUlicsl.

Since the memorable attempt of the National Chairman Iltrrity list winter to canvass the members elect of the Fifty third Congress, through the members of the National Committee, as to their attitude on the silver question, the President has lost no opportunity to ascertain how each member stood. The canvass up to a few days ago is said to have been any thing but satisfactory. The action of the Indian Government in stopping the coin age of silver in that country changed mat ters considerably, and tne past few day arc supposed to have brought sufficient assurances to he 1 resident that tne re peal of the silver purchasing law could be accomplished, so that he 'hsM felt war ranted in calling Congress together. Tho confidence with which he has taken tills step another blow to the free coin age clement of the Democracy. Thev feel that there must be something tangible on which the President bases his conviction the repeal can be passed.

Those of teem who are in the city to night have utile or nothing to say, but there is a dis couiageu loon about them that plainly in dicatcs their surprise and consternation I hey will recover in a day two. how ever, and will probacy be as blatantly ucuani as ever.
