They have been recovered too, but in figuring Out the difference between Wittrock and the company they have been taken into account.

The printer in Chicago who printed the counterfeit letter head was not very much to Diame. He did not know much except that he received nearly $2,000 to keep him still.

When Oscar Cook was arrested in Kansas City, he squealed and told of a plant he had made in an old grave-yard. The stuff was dug up and together with a sum of money was found the following ‘‘Jim Cummings’” letter which he had been afraid to mail. Ih was turned over to the Globe- Democrat last night. THE LETTER. Editor Globe- Democrat: DEAR Sitr—As it has been some time since I rote a letter to the press (my last letter be- ing the one tothe Republican, from Topeka, Kan.), and asl feelinajoliy good humor to- day, I will just drop you a few lines to let you know thatl amstillalive and enjoying good health. Now, Mr. Editor, I have a bone to pick with you concerning the dirty, mean way you acted with my St. Joe letter. To start with, you had the cheek to say you first let the detectives have the letter to purr and pry over for three or four days. Now, Mr. Editor, what kind of a way do you call that of treating an honored correspondent? If your early ed ucation has been so sadly neglected on the point of ir: you can yy 3 books on the subject—§1.25 aplece—at any book store on Olive street, which, carefully perused, will inform you how te actin the future. Yon also seem determined to * to prove everything in the letter to be alle. Now, that cog- Wheel shipped to Cuba Junction. am not sure, as I stated, what name was on it, but it was marked out as one casting, and I think you oan still find the cog-wheel three- quarters of a mile down that dirt road that leads toward Steelville. I remember that we run a stick through the wheel and two of us shouldered it down the road the same night and threw it off to one side in the weeds. It is still there, unless some one has eon it. I got Tom Rape’s name down wrong. His — — name is Race, not Rape. pe was a nickname by which my ner always called him, and I ot his right name when I wrote ou from St. Joe. Why the express company enies that such a man was ever employed by them Idon’t know. All I have to say is, if he was not rern by them knew a h—of a lo about their business. You also try te make ont that ns were ‘*planted,”’ as below St. Charlies sev- ve before the robbery. Why do you do don’t you give it to your readers he most of your subscribers are urians, and i 5 : f 3 cH 8 5 iter i 4 110 7 Ar ay” „ = A — 2 * 5 „ 3 Ris oe : r re a 8h October 27, 1886, just take for just as high as vou can you two ways of OY the crew orf aven hind me. was also a négro that lives twelve miles above St. Charles, on an island, to whom 1 offered the musket for sale early Wednesday October 27. He can identify the d the skiff, as he tried the musket to his shoulder several times. Also IF ANYBODY SHOULD WANT TO BET YOU that any part or parcel of those goods or guns were bought at some small towna short dis- tanee out from St. Charles, just take them up on that, and if you can get a bid enough pie of that Kind of bete I will just tell where t er were bought at, and it won't de at a small town a short distance out of St. Charles. Now I will tell you, Mr. Editor, how it was Fotheringham came te be tied with a silk dkerchiof instead of a strap or twine. hen the job was first put up I had fixed on holding up the an of the four that run on that road, and I found out that his name ways Hart, or Joe, I forget Which. Now, on night before the Monday night on which the robbery took place I was all ready to rush the letters on that man Hart, but that porter stayed in the car until the train was in motion, so I didn’t havéa chance to the letter. The next night I would have tried it on Fothering- ham, but I did not know his name, ana Friday my partner commenced to weaken and I tried to stiffen him up, but u was no use. Now in the package left in the Union Depot you will find the strap which was made expressly for Mr. Hart, and he can thank that porter for staying in his car so long that Wednesday night, or the chances are that he would be laying up there in the Four Courts in- stead of Fotheringham. The reason the strap was not used on Fotheringham was because 1 figured the case out this way: I had no as- surance that he would let me ride in the car. and Lhad to run the chances on his discover- ing that the letters were not Barrett’s hand- writing and suddenly yelling for the police. In that case, IF I WAS NABBED, I simply intended to act as though I was only trying to beat my way to Springfield and from there to Kansas Oity, as I also had a fetter made up ordering the messenger on the Fort Scott and Gulf route to pass me from Syringfield Kansas OCOity. Now you see if they tound me with the strap all fixed ready fora man’s hands and a good gun it would go rather hard with me to explain why 1 had the strap. The gun could be explained easily, but the strap would have been a hard thing to explain away in case I was arrested for attempted train robbery. Sol left the strap in with 1 — age, marked J. M., in the Union epot and bought the silk bandker- chief to use in place of the strap. Now Mr. Editor, I would like to say one word about the numerous Jim Cummings that have sprung up ali over the country lately, and have been giving the Pinkerton detectives the laugh in great shape. lam very much obliged to all of them for their kind en- deavors to help me out, for Itell you I need it. You have no idea what it tg to have the whole machinery of Pinkerton’s force set at work to hunt a man up. To show you, for in- stance, the fearful expense and thoroughness to which Pinkerton went, I will simply sav thatno one in Kansas City, St. Joseph or Topeka, Kan., could buy a copy of the St. Louis Republican of the issue which contained an account of the receipt of the four packages I mailed to them from Topeka without being followed to their houses or questioned by some one inthe employ of some detective agency—Pinkerton’s, I suppose. So, Mr. Editor, don’t give them too bard a rud, for they 9 WORKING LIKE 8AM HILL, but they will never find a sure clew as long as they keep thinking Fotheringham had au hand in the robbery. As this is probably the last letter you, or any other paper, will receive from me, I would like to state the following, and wheth- er you or the public believe it I don’t care very much, asl suppose the more I say Foth- eringham is innocent the more Pinkerton and his gang will believe him guilty, but ll just say the following anyhow: I had always been taught when I was akid that there was a Su- preme Power that run this earth and all things upon it, and I still believe that such a Power exists, and I hereby declare that I hope that that Power or Supreme Being may paralyze me in every limb in my body and make the balance of my lite on this earth one ofeveriasting pain if that man— David Fotheringham, the messenger—is not in- nocent of any connection in a guilty manner with the train robbery which occurred October 25, 1886, in his car on the 8t. Louis & San Fran- cisco Railroad. Yours truly, r Nu CUMMINGS, . 8.—1 inclose you a 810 bill for Tom and Jerry and Havanas. You need have no scru- ples about this bill belonging to the express SOME, as I had it on my person four days before the robbery took place. This can easily be proven by Prot. Wisehahn, or whatever his name is; you know—the so-called expert. Kansas City, Mo., December 9, 1886. SLEIGH bells jingle— snow is flying—: Strauss’ photos all are trying. NEW YEAR’S DAY. How Different Persons Observed It in the City. The advent of the New Year was observed to-day pretty much afterthe same good, old fashion, time-honored and orthodox and strictly American. Down town all of the shops and stores were closed. The cold weather kept indoors a number of persons who would otherwise have added life to the rather dreary aspect of the deserted streets. Early in the after. noon a few sleighs appeared, go- ing towards the West an promising a cheerful, jolly ride for some fortunate, happy couple. The Post-office cor- ners at about 11 o’clock wore the regulation Sunday-noon appearance and drew for afew minutes a number of politicans and Business men from the hotelrotundas. In the afternoon, after some clerks off on a holiday had drunk more than their share of egg-nog and Tom-and-Jerry they braved the intense cold and apparentiy enjoyed themselves, after the customary New Year's style, in knocking around town from ay — OS ae gether, the day was quietly observed and passed off without any disturb- ance of consequence.

The country may not be ready just yet to approve of Senator Van WyYck’s pro- posed Constitutional amendment to pro- vide for the election of Senators by the direct vote of the people rather than by the Legislature of each State. But the presence of so many mere millionaires in the Senffte, and the scandals connected with so many Senatorial elections, have called attention to the fact that ‘‘boodle candidates“ fare much better before small bodiés like State Legislatures than before the great body of voters. The Senate is plainly becoming more and more a rich man’s club,’’ more and more the political stronghold of the cor- porationsand the money power. And al- though a majority of the States have kept clear of this scandal, itis found that even their Senators are very timidabout taking the initiative or becoming prominent in any popular movement to which the cor- porations and the money power are op- posed. They seem to realize that the latter will be more influential than the people in the average State Legislature, until the people become so unanimous and excited that no Legislature will dare disobey them. Hence the disposition so manifest and so general among Senators to hold back and avoid giving offense to the dreaded power until forced to choose openly between it and the people. So it has come to pass that Senators are no longer the bold leaders of the people or quick reflectors of public sentiment as formerly. So it has come to pass that a demand of the people may be repeated by a large majority of their representatives in the House, year after year, for many years before the Senate begins to feel un- der any obligation to heed it. Even the aristocratic House of Peers in England, though a body of senators for life by in- heritance, has not dared of late years to veto so persistently the policies of the House of Commons as our Senate has vetoed the policies of the House of Representatives since 1875. Conservatism in the Senate is desirable, but the con- servatism which stands like a stone wall against annual votes by the House in favor of some sort of interstate commerce legislation is by no means conservative of popular self-government, andthe more it is manifested in boodle Senatorships and millionaire Senators, the more surely is its doom sealed ang its days numbered. The framers of our Constitution made a daring venture in trusting so much as the did to popular elections. Results have shown that they did not go too far in that direction, and sometimes the Senate seems to be doing its best to convince the country that they should have gone far- therand entrusted the election of both branches of Congress to the direct votes of the people. Two brave firemen lost their lives at the burning of the splendid and costly Temple Theater in Philadelphia on Monday. The owner, Mr. SINGERLY of the Philadelphia Record, was a heavy loser by the fire, but promptly drew his cheek for $250 for each of the two funerals, and, learning that one of the firemen had left a helpless widow and three children, sent her $500 and directed the Fire Commissioner to tell her that Wa week would be paid to her by Mr. SINGERLY or his estate as long asshelives. She will get also the $610 which is paid to each widow out of the Philadelphia Fire Department Relief As- sociation’s fund. Many a fireman loses his life where there ismorelief fund and no Mr. SInGERLY to pension the hapless widow and her chil- dren or send them $500 checks after he has taken all the funeral expenses upon him- self. Here in St. Louis we have found our people not at all backward in contributing relief ſu cases appealing strongly to their sympathy. But where fatal accidents are so frequent as in the fire service, there should be a permanent relief fund. One citizen of Pittsburg has just given $5,000 to start a firemen’s relief fund for that city. Ours has increased encouragingly since last year’s firemen’s ball was started, and we have no doubt that a good lift from this year’s ball will insure the speedy accumulation of the requisite $100, - 000. If all the friends of the movement will take some pains to make that ball a finan- al success, humane and public spirited men of wealth will begin to contribute their fifties, hundreds and thousands, and the sum needed will soon be made up. has managed to keep the office of Attor- which occurred in the first part of the thundering down the ages. | iat, eee ere ot.

The bill was reduced somewhat and then paid. One of the primary aims of the Social- istic crusade is to plead the cause of un- paid labor; and Socialists pervert the mission which they pretend to uphold when their lives and practices typify the cause of overpaid idleness. The importa- tion of roving agitators from Europe for the social and political evangelization of America is something which should be dis- couraged, for their presence can serve no purpose whatever except to whet the in- evitable discontent of the most unfortu- nate. To assume that the lecturing tours of such people can prove a menace to American institutions is simply absurd; but this is no reason why such pestilent adventurers should be encouraged to visit this country under any kiud of pretext. | It is claimed that the experiment of im- porting the AVELINGS has made a big hole in the scant treasury fund of the National Executive Board of the American Social- ists; but the money has not been thrown away if the experience which it purchased stops the supply of roaming foreign emis- saries of the Aveling pattern. $$$ ¢ — — Wurm shall we hear the last of these weary lies about the suppressed colored vote? We have some unmuzzled people in this country who are so steeped in hate of the South and Southern people and so gangrened with the lying habit that they have become mohomaniacs onthe sub- ject, and their utterances about such matters are as ynreliable and irresponsi- ble as the gibbering of an idiot. Itis not surprising to find these monomaniacs rushing into print to prove that Mr. GRaDy’s admirable and truthful speech delivered before the New England So- ciety of New York was a tissue of falsehood and sophistry. The disap- probation of these cranks and mounte- banks is a genuine compliment. Honest and candid people of all sections, and of all parties recognize the essential truth of all that Mr. GrRapy said, whether one judges Ins speech inits entirety or ex- amines separately its various statements. It is only the self-deceived and incurable apostles of sectional hate that take excep- tion to such a speech. — OEE Tne Globe-Democrat prints to-day anothgr letter from Jim Cummings. It is a very lengthy communication, and lack) of space compelled our esteemed con- temporary to omit the following passage letter: Now, Mr. Editor, what did you mean by boycotting the news of my arrest when all the other papers were printing it with sensational head-lines? Ihave always stood by you and I don’t deserve to be treated in such a shabby fashion. If you think that you can consign me to oblivion by suppre3sing all the news about me, you are mistaken—I shall dwell upon the lips of men in spite of your hostile silence. Your inimical determination to keep my correspondence in the rear of the news- paper procession can’t keep me from going Ishall live as the immortal and unsuppressed Cummings, but I thought ycu would show more gratitude for favors received.’’ A LOCAL contemporary offers some well meant hints to ladies who intend to re- ceive to-day, and advises them not to offer intoxicating liquors to callers till late in the day. If it is nevessagy to use such precautions in entertaining callers who expect to call upon ladies, then it would be the right thing to have each of such callers put in charge of a nurse or guardian before starting him on his round of New Year visits. There may be some New Year callers in every large city who will delib- erately make themselves drunk with wine and continue to call after reaching such a condition; but it is not easy to maintain that such individuals are the proper persons, even when they are sober, to call upon ladies, 9 — Ir is now announced that Mrs. Jamrs BROWN POTTER will study for the pro- fessional stage; and a weary public will keenly relish the temporary relief afforded by the seclusion of her preparatory train- ing.

Gov- ernment (like the sinnejs who compose it) is „leaving undone those things which it ought to do, and doing those which it has no busi- ness with. People’s minds are occupied with weightier matters than jubilees and it is only in the intervals of anxiety that they can turn languidly to the question, How shall we ele- brate the jubilee? Tur British emigration statistics for the first eleven months of 1886 haye just been pub- lished, and on the whole must be regarded as rather flattering to this country. Out of a total of 317,000 emigrants sailing 230,000 came to the United States, an advance ofmore than 50,000 over the corresponding petiod of last year. Of the balance Canada received 29,000, and Australia 40,000. But the most interesting point in the returns is this: Out of our 230,000 emigrants sailing from British ports only 96,000 were of English and Scbteh, only 147,000 were eyen of British origin. wiole number—were foreigners of various nitionalities. from English ports No less than 82,000—one-third of the A WELL-KNOWN French society paper has been devoting a portion of its valuable space tcthe settlement ofa question in which the pyace of mankind is deeply inyolved.

It makes the stalwart column solid for him, and renders it probable that a sense of the impolicy of the act is the only iffluence that can now defeat his next nomination for the Presidency. Which Can Squeeze Most. From the Augusta (Ga. ) Chronicle. Brother Grady, of the Constitution, made an elegant and witty speech before the New England Society at New York. He, however, may have been a little unfortunate in his con- cluding remarks. We know not what that ex- traordinary combination of North Georgia and East Tennessean may be doing in Atlanta, but thé common impression elsewhere is that the men from Nutmeg States are not only squeezing all of our Southern oil out of cottonseed, but putting an extra anaconda twist upon the planters who foolishly sell their seed at a mere song and buy commercial fer- tilizers at the North for higher prices intensi- fled by rates of interest and commission that would beggar almost any people. The Cot- tonseed Oil Trust monopoly people will smile at Brother Grady’s assertion that Southerners are squeezing instead of being squeezed in that matter. Only an excess of charity, aris- ing from baked beans and New York post- prandial cheer, could present a Southern planter or mill owner squeezing an oil trust. How Long, O Lord! From the Springfield (Mass.) Republican. The Baitimore & Ohio has joined the other roads engaged in the Western soft coal pool and has failed to furnish cars for the coal from the Shawnee (anti-pool) mines in the Hocking Valley, so that the miners have only been able to work two days inthe past month, and are suffering for the necessaries of life. The Bal- more & Ohio is said to receive 16% per cent of ali receipts for coal hauled by roads in the pool, whether it draws a coal car or not.. The case has been laid before the Ohio Railroad Commis- sioner. The Pennsylvania Road is charged with the same tactics, and there is much indigna- tion in the West where the prices are forced up. The railroads are simply sowing the wind when they step outside their legitimate func- tions and undertake to control Legislatures, Congress and the Courts, or to force up staple prices. Already the Socialists are pointing to them as the first place to secure State control, and their corruptions and high-handed regu- lation of rates lead men who are not at all Socialists to sympathize with the idea. If, by and by, the railroads reap the whirlwind it will be fruit from their own seed. Coal Roads Killing Wayside Industries, From the Philadelphia Record. The anthracite coal-carrying companies have driven the manufacturer away from the terri- tory along their lines, and have forced him to locate at some competitive point where cheap fuel may be obtained. It is now given out that these companies propose to entice capi- talists into their webs by offering land for sites at cheap rates, and be inducing the local au- thorities to exempt the new enterprises from taxation. This movementis aconfession of the failure of the policy of combining the business of coal production with that of coal trans- portation. Nearness to the coal fields, in- stead of being an advantage to manufacturers, has been madea disadvantage to them be- cause of the actions of the carriers. The leveling forces of competition are now begin- ning to assert themselves, and the companies find that they have been worsted in their at- tempts to combat universal laws of trade. A Suggestion to Illinois. From the Springfield (Mass.) Republican. Robert T. Lincoln has in him the makings of agood United States Senator. When Presi- dent Garfield chose the son of his father for Secretary of War, the country recognized an adroit use of sentiment; but after testing Mr. Lincoln through his capable, sensible and even strong administration of a conspicuous public trust, it was seen that he was entitled to respect for his own qualities. Sinee leaving Washington Mr. Lincoln has been practicing law with success. His standards of duty are high, and his abilty is of the substantial sort. He has capacity for steady and broad growth, and he would not discredit the position at the start. Can Illinois do better than to make him her Senator at this time? Twelve Hours in Advance. From the Greenfield Vidette. The Post- DISPATCH is now the leading even- ing paper in the country, and reaches us twelve hours in advance of the morning dailies, which isastrong point in its favor. Although Democratic in its leanings the P. D. is independent in its utterances, and occa- sionally deals hard blows to Democrat and Republican alike when their acts fail to accord with its views of the right and the fitness of things.

Logan has been deseribed in nearly every public sketch I have seen of him as an intense partisan. Judged by the acts of his public career, he will doubtless stand recorded as an unswerving party man, but in private his talk was not that of a partisan. I have heard freer talk from him concerning the management of the affairs of the Republican party than from any Republican of equal prominence, He was especially eloquent in denouncing the management of the Republican party in 1880. Ishall never forgeta talk I once had with him on this subject at his old rooms on Twelfth street, in the boarding-house where he lived so many years. The time was nearly midnight, The General was alone. It was in 1882, two years preceding the campaign of the de- feat of Blaine and Logan. Gen. Logan then said that he had heard stories of how money had been employed by Dorsey to carry Indiana for Garfield. He had not} believed the general reports on this sub- ject, believing them to be part ofthe scandals of an active campaign; but dur- ing a recent visit to New York he had had given him absolute evidence of the raising of a corruption fund for the purchase of votes for Indiana. Gen. Logan then went on and gave in detail a story which was printed in the Posr-Disraron at that time, concerning the raising of $30,000 by subscriptions from J y Gould and C. P. Huntington for use Indiana. Gen. Logan said that he had also been shown a reement which was signed at that time, stipulating that in return for this money the next appointment to the Supreme Court Bench to be made should be made in the interests of GOULD AND HUNTINGTON. He said at the time that this compact was shown him by one of the gentlemen who was present at that remarkable interview, where Garfield was represented by a prominent newspaper friend. The Gen- eral grew very indignant durin ng | the re- cital of this story. He said: I believe that these facts should be made known. Of course, they came to me in such a way that my name cannot be used. But you go ahead and 12 the story. You will find that it will never be denied.“ The General went on tosay that the Repub- lican party, he. believed, was certain to be caught up and suffer de- feat. The very fact of its hav- ing carried its point in Indiana by such means was to him a sure indication of its final downfall. He said, what is more. it should be defeated. He was not at all confident when the national ticket was nominated in Chicago in 1884. In pri- vate conversation with his friends during that campaign he admitted the possibili- ties of defeat were very great. He was not situated so that he could come out himself and denounce the fraud of 1880. The story had been given to him in such a way that he could not have ap- eared in it as a witness. Then is personal relations with near! all of the leaders of his party were suc that he could not come out and make a general attack along the line without simply ruining himself and accomplis no good. Thestory was one that woul have required an official investigation to prove, and it was a question whether any of the holders ofthe contract would have surrendered it, even to a Congressional committee. When Gen, Logan was de- feuted for the Senate, in the winter of 1876 and 1877, his friends say that he could have been ‘glested. Hie was making a hard fight and relaxed only to- wards the last. Messages came to . io a prominent leaders of e epublican ty, urging upon him to permit David Da vis to carr off the Senatorship. It was represented to the Senator that if he did not push David Da- vis too hard it would be of great advan- tage to the party to have Judge Davis elected to the Senate so that there could be ro possibility of his going on the Elec- toral Coxmmiasion. If the Senator would consent to waive his claims to an election tothe Senate, he was told that he could W pore in the gift the ayes Administration if should be successful. He was told that he should have his choice of places in the Cabinet. It is hardly pos- sible to conceive that Gen. Logan could have entered into any bargain with any of the Republican managers at Washing- ton, Itis probable that towards the close of his Senatorial fight, intimations might } From the Washington Critic. have been made to him that if he were not too stubborn in fighting there he might find it to his POLITICAL PERSONAL ADVANTAGE. After David Davis was elected Gen. Logan was taken no further notice of by the Republican managers at Washington. When the new Administration was formed he was not taken into its cabinet council and notwithstanding his prominence a — his services to the country he was not tendered even the courtesy of 2 mission. He was out of the Senate o two years. During that time all of h enemies thought that they had Logan down. He was never more sensi- tive than auring this period of enforced retirement. The friends who stood by him at tha’ time he never forgot.
