New YorK, May 6.—The foliowing are the ex- cerpts from Pope Leo’s encyclical letter against Freemasonry. which has just reached tnis coun- try: “After the example @ our predecessors, we intend to turn our attention to the Masonic so- clety, to its whole doctrine, to its intentions, acts and feeliggs, in order to illustrate more and more this wicked farce and stop the spread of the contagious disease. There are sev- eral sects of men, which, though different in name, customs, form and origin, are identical fn aim and sentiment with Masonry.. Those who are chosen to join the society must promise and swear to obey the teachers with great respect and trust; to be ready todo whatever is told them, and accept death and the most horrible punish- ment if they disobey.

GO TO THE BEST PLACE IN TOWN(= Masons in respect of religion, especially where they are more free to do what ther like, it wili appear that they carry faithfully into execution the tenants, the naturialists. They work, indeea, obstinately to the end that veither the teaching nor the authority of the church may have any in- fluence, and therefore they preach and maintain the full separation of the church from the State. So laws and Government are wrested from the wholesome and divine virtue of the Catholic Church and the want, there- fore, by all means to rule states independent of the institutions and doctrines of the church. To drive off the church as a sure guide is not enough, they add persecutions and insults. Full license is given to attack with impunity, both by words and print, and teaching, the very foundaiions of the Catholic religion. The rights of the church are violated, and her divine privilezes ARE NOT: RESPECTED. Her action is restricted as much as possible, and that by virtue of laws apparently not too violent, but substantiaily made on purpose to check herfreedom. If other arcuments were needed for this, it would be sufficiently demon- strated by the testimony of many who often, in times bygone and even lately, declared it to be the real supreme aim of ibe Free Masons to per- with untamed hatred, Christianity, that they will neve: rest cast to the titutions established iaith, “President Arthur is my second chore, and should have a third choice, it ment be Blaine,” “Tuere’s Lincoln.

It is true that Free Ma- sons generally admit the existence of God, but THEY ADMIT THEMSELVES this persuasion for not firm, sure. They do not dissemulate that in the Masonic family the question of Goad is a principle of creat discord: it is even known how lately they had on this point serious disputes. It is a fact thatthe sect leaves to the members full liberty of thinking about God whatever they like, affirming or denying his existence, Those who boldly deny his existence are admitted as well as those who, ike the antucists, admit God, but ruin the, dea of Him,retatning an avsura caricature of the divine nature, destroying-ite reality. The only morality which Free Masons admit and by wien they would like to bring up the youth is that which they cali civil and independent. or the one which ignores every religious idea. But how poor, uncertain and variabie at every breath of passion is this morality demonstrated by the sorrowful fruits which partially alreaay appens.

Marine National Bank of New Tork eee re Fish pealt Too Heavily in Bisa, t „ ‘ Be 8 a Neal Estate With the Corporation’s Funds — Grant 4 Ward, Brokers, Pulled Into the Hole by the Failure. ‘New Yorx, May 6 —Tne Marine National Bank % Closed. A year ago the bank purehased Dots Theater. The Clearing House is consid- ering the suspension. It is thought, tne failure is abad one. The capital of the Marine Bank ts 990% 000. {ts statement September 22 last, - showed a surplus of 6130, 000; undivided profits $62,345. John D. Fish is the cashier. A visit to the bank discovered some fifty discon- | polate depositors standing in @ potting rain Around the closed doors. No admittance was given reporters. No notice was posted on the 4q Soor. The bank was open at the usual time this * morning, but before noon was closed abruptly without assigning any cause, The stock market i very active and there seemed to be some con- Hection between the failure and the condition of affairs at the Stock Exchange. The depositors, ‘Judging froin appearance of those about the build- ing, are of a well-to-do class. An explanation Was promised for tite afternoon, THE POST'S OPINION. The Post says: “The suspension of the Marine National Bank was announced a little after 11 this morning. Tke inimediate cause of the fail Was the bank’s Inability to meet its debt of About $500,000 at the Clearing House this morn- ing. But the cause lying behind this is presumed to be the real estate operations of President Jas D. Fish during the last year or two. Within that time he has bought Booth’s Theater and the Casino, and has also recently been building the large apartment bhilding, The Mystic,” on West Thitty-ninth street. The reconstruction of Booth’s Theater and the building of “The Mys- tic’ has taken a great deal of money. which he is presumed to have borrowed from th» bank. Fish is seeond vice- president of the St. Louis and San Francisco Kail- ‘road, and the Marine Bank is the registration of- fice of that stock, It is not presumed that tliis connection had anything to do with the bank’s embarrassment, though it is understood that some connection rth either Ontario and Western or the West Shes bond manipulation may have had some influence, though probably only secondary to the real estate operations of the president. A few minutes after 10 o’clock a gentleman madea deposit at the Marine National Bank, and as he went out was followed to the door by the bank porter, who began rolling down the iron shutters. THE DEPOSITOR RAN BACK to find the receiving teller had shut his window and gone out of business for an indefinite period. The paying teller was still more conspicuous by his absence, and the depositor had the consola- tion of stanaing on the steps of the bank the next hour and telling his experience to a crowd of ex- cited depositors who gathered at the corner of Wall and Pearl streets, within an incredibly short time after the failure of the bank had been announced. Two policemen were sent for, who stood guard over the steps of the bank building. To a few of the largest depositors the iron doors were opened about an inch and a few words of indefinite encouragemént spoken by those within. A full statement of the bank’s condition was promised at 3 o’clock. All information was de- ied reporters. The gossip among the crowd of depositors attributed the fallure chiefly to the miscarriage of large real estate speculators by James D. Fish. The busi- ness done was not considered large for the neigh- borhood, and the feeling among the depositors was hopefu!. Some delay may be caused by the _ necessity of selling a large amount of real estate, Dut unless the failure was worse than the too heavy rea) estate speculation the faliure will not prove disastfous. One of the depositors, who was disposed to make the best of it, said Wall street erally objected to the Marine Bank because its family character. James D. Fish is ident and John D, Fish, a nephew, the cashier, and half a dozen other relatives of president are in positions ot trust. The cap- ital of the report April 25th showed total resources amount- ing to $7, 269,425; total liabilities the same. On Friday, it is said, Fish transferred the builaing next to the bank, No. 78 Wall street, to the bank for $81,000. This became generally known and the effect of the failure was virtually discounted. In the Clearing House this morning the bank was debtor 63800. 000, and Manager Camp refused to allow the clear- ing to proceed until security to that amount had been provided. Thus the clearing was delayed, and although finally accomplished, security hav- ing been given for $500,000,.the Marine Bank of- ficials decided to suspend. Director Yates of the Marine Bank says there is no defalcation or dis- honesty in the management. The principal troubie is that the bank cannot realize on some Ooliateral. CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. An associated press reporter visited the clear- ing house and endeavored to obtain some infor- mation from Manager Camp. That official would only say that the Clearing House Committee was in session and nothing would be given the public until it concluded an examination of the account of the bank. It is said on the street that the bank's downfall is due to the real estate transac- tions of President Fish. Some time ago he bought Booth's Theater, and 1s now converting it into stores. He is also interested in the apartment houses. An official of the bank was asked whether Fisifer’s operations had caused the sus pension, and whether the bank was doing busi- ness With brokers and 80 lost money. He refused to answer, It is believed the failure is due to a little of both. GRANT & WARD FAIL. New Yorx, May 6.—Grant & Ward announce a losing on account of the failure of the Marine Bank.

Mr. Fish is also president of the Marine Bank, and regarded as one of the héaviest stock dealers in New Tork, if fot the heaviest. The failyge of the Marine Bank ex plains the collapse of the broker frm. The latter has at no time been regarded as a largely moneyed concern, and tne impression is that the failure is not for any large amount. This impression may be altogether wila, however, as the R. G. Dun agency quotes the firm at $1,000,000, double A. Young. Grant was married only a few years ago under auspiees of splendor to the brilliant daughter of Jerome Chaffee, Denver's millionaire Senator, and the Senator settled upon the young groom a yéry handsome business capital, together with a haudsome residence in New York. It is understood that the capital has all been exhausted, but the residence is still safe. Gen. Grant has always had the confidence of Jay Gould, and there Is a strong impression that the failure of his firm is due to his ifivestments in Gould stocks, which have all taken such an un- precedented tumble during the past mouth. The news of the failure spread rapidly, and Union Pacific went doWn immediately from 61 to 56%,~—~a heavier fall than on any other day sinee the drop began. Another Failure.

A Patrol Sent Out to Cut Them Off. —- — Lord Charchill’s Withdrawal From the Leadership of the Conservatives —A Reply to the Pope’s Encyclical Letter —Cable Flashes. > _— —— LONDON, May 6.—The sensation caused by the withdrawal of Lord Randolph Churchill contin ues. The facts regarding the difficulty are now learned fo have been as follows: Churchill, after becoming Chairman of the Conservative Union Association, slighted and ignored the Marquis of Salisbury’s Central Conservative Committee. He claimed the council of the Union had control of the entire Conservative party, and it had be- come a caueus, He appointed an executive eom- mittee, consisting of himself, Mr. Gorst and Sir Henry Drummond Wolff. The association, how- ever, adopted a resolution that the council and central committee should work in harmony. Churchill, looking upon this as a vote of censure, retired from the association. The correspond- ence between Churchill and Salisbury is so ac- rimonious that a reconciliation is improbable. MICHAEL DAVITT writes to the Dublin Freeman’s Journal that his programme is to deliver lectures in Australia, New Zealand, the United States and Canada and then return to Ireland. TO RESCUE DALY.

WASHINGTON, May 6.—The vote on the motion to strike out the enacting clause of the tariff bill was: Yeas 156, nays 151. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 6.—All attention is turned on the tariff bill in the House this after- noon, Nobody can talk or think of atlything els e It is reported this afteruoon that the opponents of the bill have gained several recruits and are eonfident of being able to strike out the enacting Clause on the vote this afternoon. They expect four men from Ohio who voted to take up the bill, also James and Snyder. On the other hand it Is said that two who opposed taking Ht up will vote against striking out the enacting clause. There were also eight members absent, and not paired, five of whom will vote tostrike out the enacting clause and three against it. The best mathe- maticians make the result like this: That the motion to strike out the enacting clause will carry by a majority of eight, yet everything is ‘guess work and nobody can safely predict anything. The indications, however, are that the biti is not 80 strong as when taken up. ANDERSON OF KANSAS. It is announced now tnat that Anderson of Kansas, who voted to take up the bill, will now vote to strike out the enacting clause; also that the Virginian members are changing in the hope that they may thus get a removal of the tobacco tax. E SIAMESE EMBASSY Called at the. hite House to-day and paida formal visit to the President. They were ac- companied hy Secretary Frelinghuysen, Consul Smith, Rear Admiral Rodgers and Lieutenants Mason and Potts. The President was attended by all the members of the cabinet now in the city. The Embassadors were attired in full court costume of the richest character, the distinguishing feat- ure being cloaks of nettea gold. They were re- ceived in the blue parlor and the usual formali- tles exchanged. THE TRADE DOLLAR BILL. At a meeting of the Senate Committee on Fi- nance an agreement was reached that the trade dollar bill should be reported adversely but not until after another meeting of the committee. In the meantime Senato: Sherman will draw up an adverse report, which will be passed upon by the committee next week. HOUSE MILITARY AFFAIRS COMMITTEE. The House Committee on Military Affairs agreed to report a resolution authorizing the committee to investigate the management of such National soldiers’ homes as they deem necessary ; a bill to extent the period for re-enlistment from thirty to ninety days, and a bill directing the Sec- retary of War to furnish all the States with copies of the records of their troops. THE HOUSE. The morning hour dispensed with, went into committee of the whole. Mr. New York in the ehair, on the tariff biil. Mr. Brown of Pennsylvania spoke in support of the protective system of taxation. Mr. Townshend quoted from various platforms the Democratic National Conventions to show that the party always had been in favor of tariff reform and had always declaredfor revenué tariff. Some gentlemen repudiated the term “protection” and took refuge behiud the term “discrimination.” If discrimination were Dolled down it would be found to be the quintessence of protection. If it was not the proper timeto beginthe work of tariff reduction, Whenz theg Presidential election was coming on, andthe people could record the —4 on the question, when would the proper time Mr. Gibson was sorry the bill was not in such a form as to do justice to his State, but it came, like all other legisiation, to be acted upon and amend- „ and to decline now to consider it would de to stand as un obstructioniat to much-needed lezisiation* He was not willing to enter into a coalition with the Republican 2 to obstruct wise and patri- otic legislation a Democratic majority. He was wiiling to trust to the wisdom, honesty, good sense and good faith of the fr iends of the measure to do exaci justice to his State and exact justice to all sections. MR. RANDALL THEN TOUK THE FLOOR in opposition to the bill, He opeued by calling attention to the extreme quickness with which capita invested in large industrial establisiments took alarm, while in common with all other interests it was liabie to be called on for taxation to supportthe Goy- ernment. Congress owed it to itself that nothing like a vindicative policy should be adopted. In the nice adjustment of business affairs there was r conducive to success than stability. there was stability it was the sure foundation of confidence, and as a natural result Capital and labor moved forward in their respect- ivé spheres in content aud in accordance with mutual profit. To judge from the intemperate language and eka — rhetoric which had 80 frequently r Bs the debate it would seem as ‘thoes engaged in in- dustrial ae. were robbers and outlaws. Asa matter of fact they were nothing of the sort. They were a part, and no mean part, of the business Of the country; and had been united un- der the law to engage in those employments, and, therefore, if for no other reason, they were eu- titled to the protection of the law. They were 3 as Aa nation, resources was a test of true statesmanship. He rejoiced in the gtowth and prosperity of every section of the country. It the denunélations of the advocates of the bil ‘were believed, the men who had built up our manufactures had committed an unpardona- bie sin. He could see good reason why England shauid think so, but not why such shouid be the poten of any citizen of the United States. Great Britain had never ceased to deplore the loss of her American colonies. She had struck, as she thought, a deadly blow in 1812, and during our laie civil war had dove her best to sunder the two sections. Since that time she has changed her policy, and instead of force had resorted to per- suasion and advice. She eked out a lions skin with that of a fox. The United States should remember the warping to tear the Greeks even when bringing gifts. He then went on to argue against the policy of un- settling business interests by coustant tink er- ing with tue tariff. Snould no law last longer than the meeting of next Congress; shall the meeting of Congress cause fear and lis adjourn- ment cause enjoyment? Should it not be settled tor a time at least, or should doubt and mistrust always haunt the waking and sleeping hours of the people ? For one he was emphatically opposed to any such suicidal policy. It would be madness for any party to pursue it. It was submitted to every memoé@r’s judgment to apply the beroic remedy to this bili or to let ic linger outa sickly existence, pearing in its wake business confusion and genera — It was not based on any sound principle here bad been au apology for it, but po defense.

George W. Ristine, commissioner, Sarina the moruing session nothing of any im- rtance was done, asthe Gould Lines were not preseptod at all, Col. Hoxie having withdrawn the Texas and Pacific from the association. The general sentiment was that it would be absurd to go on witn the meeting uniil ali roads dolug a transcontinental business were represent- ed. TheCommissioner was instructed to invite Col. Hoxie to attend the meeting this afternoon, to which time the meeting adjourned. Judging from the shaking of heads and the demur man- ner in which questions concerning the solidity of pool are answered, it is a pretty safe stute- ment to venture that the Transcontinental As suciation has seen its strongest days. KANSAS AND SOUTHERN ROADS. There will be a meeting of the lines from Kan- gas points to poiuts iu tie South, to take up the ‘ advisability of re-adjusting rates on a new basis which at present is u dark suject, Those who will attend the meeting are: George Liliey,Gould ines: J.

This meeting met witha sudden death this morning soon afterit was called to order. One of the members arose and stated tnat he knew of A contract the St. Paul and Duluth Company had entered into with a steamboat company, and un- less the document was produced he with his road would withdraw from the meeting. Of course the Duluth representauve did not have the docu- ment with him. and to avoid a break-up tne chair- man, Geo. L. Carman, adjourned the meeting un- tia 4 ‘later day. SUB-CLASSIFICATION COMMITTEE. The sub-committee of the Joint Classification Committee failed to get together this morning, — between George Danieis, commissioner of he Utah and Colorado poois, and Secretary Igle- bart, secretary of the Association, a set of sug- estions regarding the harmonizing of classifica- ions of lines east and west of the Missouri River Were drawu up to de presented at the general meeting which takes place to-morrow.

Mr, KrLLodd was not successful in his attempt to obiain a coat of whitewash from the House. He should come out to St. Louis and appear before the Davis Committee. Mn. Puevrs has had the exceeding kind- ness to remark that he saw nothing improper in EDMUNDS’ little railroad transactions, but thus far we have not noticed that Mr. Ep- MUNDS has returned the compliment and whitened the tattoo that decks the cuticular integument of the man from Maine. — THE Roosevelt Investigating Committee in New York is trying to discover the. bond of sympathy between the gamblers and the police force of that city, but the general im- pression is that the police Will be as success- ful in proving their innocence as ScHa- WACKER, MCALLISTER and Company have been in this city. . — ooo On the twenty-eighth day of May we may expect a simultaneous improvement in poli- ties and journalism. On the twenty-seventh day of May the Women’s Christian Temper- ance Union will offer up prayers for tne pol- iticians and editors. We do not answer for the politicans, but we have hopes that sev- eral of our loathsome contemporaries will yleld to the influence of lovely woman and gee the error of their ways. Tun Chicago Tribune has been rounding up the delegates to Chicago and gives BLAINE 378 out of the 820. As faras the accuracy of this statement is concerned we can say that there is not the slightest foun- dation for the preferences assigned to the majority of the Missouri delegates, and the table has appdrently been gerrymandered in other respecis. Mr. BLAINr’s strength will probably be greatest at the start, but it will be less than 378. Tux Republican this morning pays the business men of St. Louis a left-handed compliment by putting up the head line, “Unprecedented—Moses Fraley Pays One Hundred Cents on the Dollar.” In our ex- _ perience of the business men of St. Louis it das been the rule for them to pay one hun- ». @red cents on the dellar, which Mr. Fratzey intends to do, but which he has not done so far. The only thing unprecedented about the ease has been the easy credence given to tus stories of Mr. FnaLxr's alleged tremen- dous losses. — A GENTLEMAN otherwise unknown to fame but encumbering the simple name of Joun F. Henry,with the multitadinous ap- pendaze of “Chairman National Anti-Mo- nopoly Association,” has issued a call for a conventi-n to meet in Chicago, May 14 From the language of his call we infer that there is no such thing as the association of which he is president, and that any citizen who can geta pass to Chicago for the occa- sion will be accepted as a delegate. We hope Mr. Henry will succeed in r@ilying enough delegates to hold a meeting. — — . The business of the Springer Committee is to investigate the prosecution of the Star the record made before the courts and the evidence obtainable ffom the attorneys.

But there is no statute of limitations running against the expulsion of a member. That is a matter wholly within the discretion of the House itself, and if it fails to expel KLLoOodò it should never again think of expelling any member for any cause Whatever. — OUR MILITIA, The militia bill which has the Sen- ate, and awaits a two-thirds vote to suspend the rules and bring it up in the House, is not so perfect a measure as Congress ought to pass. But a committee appointed by the National Guard Association at the Cincin- nati Militia Convention, and composed of the Adjutant-Generals of Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana and Ohio, are bringing all the in- fluence of that association to Dear on its passage, regarding it as a fair starter, and so ineffen sive as to excite no opposition. Ite provisions merely increase the annual appropriation of $200,000 to $600,000 for militia arms, equipments, tents, etc., with some stricter regulations for the distribu- tion and preservation thereof. It pro- vides, for instance, that the distribu- tion shall be on the basis of 250 uniformed militia for each Congressional district and for each territory, but that the appropri- 4 ation for each State or territory shall be re- dueed in proportion as its number of regu- larly enlisted, organized and uniformed militia falls short of the prescribed quota. It also authorizes the Secretary of War to sell, at cost price, such uniform clothing as the States may wish to purchase from the Quar- termaster’s department. In view of the declarations of the Consti- tution and the known purpose of its framers to rely on “a well regulated militia’ as the military arm of our Republic, as the best national defense and as the security of free States,” this is indeed a modest bill. In 1808, when we had but one-seventh of our population, and not a tithe of our present wealth, the annual militia appropriation was raised to $200,000 through the earnest exertions of President JEF- FERSON, and now, instead of rais- ing the appropriation to $1.400,000, which would be in proportion to our increased pop- ulation, this bill asks for only $600,000—less than half the amount. Such an appropriation is rididulous eom- pared with the many millions we expend on our paper navy, for military pensions and on our little regular army. It is out of propor- tion tothe importance and the duties as- signed to “a well-reguiated militia” by the Constitution. It would barely keep up the supply of arms, camp equipage, etc., if each State should organize its full quota, and it therefore leaves the principal burden and expense vf an effective militia upon the States, or upon the patriotic young men who are expected to give their time to this ser- vice without pay. The trouble about State appropriations is that most of our State leg- islators represent rural constituencies where it is difficult to maintain military organiza- tions, and where the need of themis but little felt. Every militia appropri- ation in a State Legislature is apt to be re- garded as for the sole benefit of cities and towns. A national appropriation of $600,000 a year would do some good, of course, and ought to pass without a word of opposition. But an annual appropriation of $3,000,000, about five cents per capita of our population, to uni- form and equip a volunteer militia, would give us one company in nearly every county- seat, asplendid National Guard of at least 200,000 men, as effective for national defense in any sudden emergency as any costly army of similar size in Europe. With such aid from Congress the States would be much more inclined to do their proper share, @id the educational effect of maintaining such a body of citizen soldiery throughout the Union would be of incalculable value to our young men. It would bea school in which public spirit, National patriotism and State pride would, all together, acquire their highest and most harmonious development. — — — f A BROKEN SsYNDICATE, The opponents of BLAINE are whistling loudly among the graves of their buried cal- culations. They love to tell how they crushed the Blaine beom in 1876 and again in 1880, and they confidently deciare that the party is carrying load enough already, and will not be 80 fatuous as to take up also the burden of the tatooed man.“ Perhaps not. We observe, however, that, besides having more delegates now than he ever had before, he now has for him three out of four of the great organs of tlle Re- publican reform sentiment that were a unit in denouncing him and prociaiming his nomination equivalent to party suicide four years ago. The New York Tridune, the Chi- cago Tribune and the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette-are all sweet upon him now, and the two former are now in his behalf hurling at St. JEROME Epmunps the same poisoned shafts with which they attacked BLAINE four and eight years ago. We never expected to see the famous quadrilateral of mu- tual admiration, the sacred syndicate of Re- publican reform, composed of MgepILL, HAL- STEAD, Rerp and Bow Les, all dDroken up as itisnow. But here is Bowis“ paper de- fending Epuunps from the atta cks of the other three, and denouncing them as liars. The Springfield Republican accuses the Chi- cage Tribune of willfully and knowingly con- triying “the most monumental and wicked lie of the campaign.” — 1 To see MEDILL worshiping at the shrine ‘ of Saint BLAIx , and discovering ere legislated to “create an ari of miil- ng men,” is 5 7 * * ee oo Yay La te 2 * *. : . meee: ee Ee eter me Eh tarred with the same stick, and that there is not among them one clean man or genuine reformer—no, not one. ee THEY NEVER SPEAK. A gentleman by the name of Hessz- DABMSTADT, who, on his first matrimonial venture, married into the exalted and” nu- merous family of Great Britain, has gotten into trouble, His mother-in-law has cut him and so have his sisters and his cousins and his aunts by marriage. The unhappy man’s offense is that he is going to marry a lady who does not belong to a royal family. It is not wholly his fault. He tried to marry his deceased wife’s sister, but the peerage and the bishops of Great Britain refused to legalize such a marriage. Accordingly, Mr, Hessm has looked else- where for a wife, and, finding another ob- stacle between himself and his choice, push- es the obstacle aside, and proposes to con- tracta marriage which shall be legal in every respect except that the children cannot inherit the title. At this depravity the royal family of Great Britain stands aghast. The ladies of the royal family have fled from Hesse-Darm- stadt, and when the Prince of Wales heard that his brother-in-law had gone to the bad he buried his manly face in his hat and wept bitter, scalding tears. —— — . — — HEARTLESS. It is not pleasant to think of the magnifi- cent steamer, City of Rome, loaded witha company of pleasure-seckers, keeping on its way without even stopping to read the sig- hals of the sailing vessel which told them something about a steamer called the State of Florida having gone down, ana about some people having been saved on her. The story the sailing vessel had to tell may not be known for weeks, if it is known at all. But the skipper probably thought that a man who was fit to command the City of Rome had a man’s heart in his bosom, and that he would stop fora half an hour in order o become the bearer of tidings from the wreck, and thereby save the agony of suspense that would otherwise be en- dured by the’ relatives of those who had sailed on the sunken ship In this he was mistaken. The disaster which befel the State of Florida was one which may befall the City of Rome. It might happen that a few half-drowned and famished passengers from the City of Rome, rescued by a passing sailer, mightin turn ask the charity of giving their friends news of their safety where all the rest were lost. But the captain could not afford to think of that. He was running a race. Time was money, and what are all other human inter- ests when money isin question? He kept on his way. He made his record. But the world still waits to know the fate of the shipwrecked vessel whose story he refused to hear. eases senna re RELIEVE THB COURT. There is a measure before the Municipal Assembly to increase the police force, and | an increase in the police force is among our urgent municipal needs, But one-fifth of the money which is pro- posed to be appropriated for additional po- lice would pay for another criminal judge, clerk and staff of officials. We need the additional judge more than we need the additional policemen. The police can catch offenders faster than the court can try them. It would greatly diminish crime if it were known that a speedy trial awaited all crimi- nals and that thus the present chances of escape were lessened. A eity with thirty murderers undisposed of certainly stands in greater need of judges than of policemen. | Ir was hardly worth while for KRLTLOOOG to deny that he had accused the administra- tion of persecuting him, or that he had threatened to punish it by delivering the Louisiana delegation to BLAINE at Chicago. Mr. KELLOG@’s escape from the penitentiary is 80 plainly due to official favor and protec- tion that any talk from him about per- secution would only blazon the BLiss treach- ery. Nobody will believe Mr. KeLLoce ca- pable of disposing of the Louisiana delega- tion otherwise than as he disposed of his Senatorial inflnence—for a quid pro quo. Ir is said that KxLLooo will demand an investigation,.in order that he may show that he received the money from PRIOE with the consent and at the suggestion of Jonw SHERMAN and other Republican leaders, who had promised to reimburse his expendl- tures in the Haves contest, and told him to get it from the mail contractors when they failed to raise itin some other way. If Mr. KELLocG will admit so much the House should promptly expel him on his own con- fession, without taking the trouble to exam- ine any ether witnesses. MEN OF MARK.

By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New York, May 6.—The WORLD says: The Republicans have just held representative cou- ventions all over the United States to choose ael- egates to nominate a candidate for President of the United States representing the séntiments and prinelples of their party. The Abrahams of the organization have been looking for the right- eous men and honest civil service reformers to support Edmunds, They have found only about sixty; the Times claims 66 out of 820 deiegates, will tue the destruction ot Republicavism follow?

Yet the wiekea followers of these sinful politicians, even Ay figures of the Times, divide 694 out of the delegates be tween them. Tie rest will go at Urst to Logan Sherman and Gresham, but as these are mainly for Blaine as second choice, they must also de Classified among the degenerate. Hence, ac- cording to the must favorable gu es of the Eu- munds organ, the dishonest and honest Repubiic- ans in the convention will stand in the ratio of 754 to 66, or about 114% 101. What kind of a party can that dbe.eleven-twelfths of whose members de- sire to elect a corrupt and unfit man to the Presidency?” THE BUN. The Sun says: “Prof. Morrison’s star course of lectures on political economy will probably come to an end to-day in the House of Represen- tatives. There js time left for an energetic and successful effort on the part of the Democratic majority to keep the appropriation below the high water mark of the extravagance of the For- ty-seventh Congress. TMat is the only sort of horizontal reduetion that will count this year. If the work is negteoted the oue practical result of Democratic statesmanship will be a pretty se- vere borizontal reduction of the vote in November.” ' THE TRIBUNE.

Last evening on Washington avenue a richly dressed lady hastily entered acar, and, in the hurry of sitting down, accidentally dropped her portemon naie,which fell upon the floor with such force as to break open. A gentleman sitting op- posite immediately stooped, and, gathering up the purse, presented it to the lady, who was evidently much embarrassed by ber exhibition of eare- lessness, but was polite enough to return profuse thanks. In a few moments tne conductor came infor her fare, and she began looKiug through her pocket-book for the neces- sary money. All at ouce tothe surprise of the passengers, she turned upon thé gentieman op- site uud flushing angrily said: “Conductor, bat man has stolen — money.

The Heroic Remedies by Which Faces are Beautified — A Draggist Talks About the Humbug in Popular Cos- metics—The Best Face Beautifier. “The fact is,” said a prominent retall draggist the other day to a young man with thin legs ana note-book, that these nostrums for the compiex- ion with which the market is flooded are worse than bumbugs. for, far from being beneficial, they are in most cases positively injurious. There is plenty of money to be had in that sort ot quack- ery, for there is always a sale for any stuff that pretends to possess curative properties for the skin. Fut up some rose water in bottles, label it Bloom of Youth’ or anything else that sounds well, and the women will rush to buy it. There is nothiug a woman will not do, no tortures she will not endure to enhance the beauty of her complexion. The women of Brazil rub tne juice ofa nut on the face, the skin of which (that ts to say, the epidermis or superticial skin) comes off, leaving the face ina raw state. Alter applying the nut-juice, the patient takes to her bed, and in three weeks afresh skin has formed and she has an entirely new cemplexion. It. is rather sur- prising on the whole that some such idea has not deen adopted in more civilized countries although a method somewhat nearly approaching it is ac- tually practiced in Paris by a physician who claims its Invention. I understand, on good au- thority, that it is very successful so far as its re- sults are concerned, but it must be ex- tremely painful A woman who takes this method of renewlug her youth must undergo a fearful ordeal. She is placed un- der the influence of chloroform, and the whole superficial layer of the cuticle is removed witfl the Kulte; tis accomplished, the face is swathed in bandages, and a new skin forms within afew days. A physician of my acquaintance assured me that he had seen a person who had had her complexion renewed im this way, and that ber skin was ofa delicate creamy tint, like achild’s; she always Work greatest care of if, never going out unless thickly veiled. A comylexiou obtatued at sucha a cost was not to be readily sacrificed. „Tus ouly g metic I know of is pure water. Any first-rate physician will tell you that face- Washes are quile useless as remedies for skin troubles. And yet these quack remedies always Will command a large sale, though many of them contain elements very injurious both to the health and complexion, and not one of them pretends to attack the skin trouble through the blood, which is the only way recognized as effective in the practice of medicine, People frequenuy apply to me for a remedy for freckles, but THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE FRECKLE is sometulng that nolelluw ever could exactly und out. There are two theories in regard to freckles—one is, that they small accumulations of the colors the skin, that they are stains produced through the oxida- tion by the air of the iron jn the blood. The first of these is doub. less the true one. No one has ever found out how to remove freckles, “Mauy people are annoyed by eruptions of the skin of the face, which spring merely from im- . of the blood. and the only remedy is to at- K the trouble through the biood. The practice of taking arsenic for the complexion is an ex- ceedingly dangerous one. Arsetiic, asa remedy for skin disorders, is well known in therapeutics, but, too carelessly used, it undermines the con- stitution. Reputabie drugyists will not sell Fowler’s solution of arsenic, which is the form ia which it is usually taken, Without a doetor's pre- ption. These so-calied medicated soaps for the skin have no particularly good effect.

Mullane’s first service had been virtually piedged to the St. Louls ud, he having accepted their terms and inted a place for the signing of a contract. the face of this he continued his uetting with the Lucas officers and was soon under con- tract with them.

In his capacity as captain, he had a perfect right to protest in a gentiemanly way against any decision he * g~ think unjust and prejudicial to tue interests of his club. r. Min- er, the secretary of the club, was of the opinion that Brown did nothing more than was right and proper, as he paid the flue out of his owa indi- vidual fund. - (Enquirer. Counterfeiting theater tickets 1s an old dodge, but counterfeiting buse-ball tickets is not. A Hum- ber of counterfeit Dase-ball tickets were present- ed at Union Park, Pittsburg, on thé day of the first Athietic-Allegheny game, but the parties were refused admission. It was learned that some person had printed a lot of tickets ana of- fered them for sale to boys at the rate ot twenty cents each. Thetickets are an exact fac simile of the regular tickets. except they are not num- bered. Efforts are being made to discover the counterfeiters. The following well-known pla ers have just been signed for the Springfield, Ohio, Base-Bali Cub; Audrew Cummings, one of the finest short-stops in the country, late of the Kentons; Cox of Co- lumbus, a strong gon tg one ofthe American As- sociation teams of last year; Wm. Bolu, the weil- known piteber, of Cleveland; Bell of Clevelund, a strong player. who caught Mountjoy’s pitching last year; Sullivan of Kenton, a very fine pitcher. The batteries of the club will be Bohn aud Sexzg, and the reserve battery Bell and Sullivan. Pow- ers of Conneautsville, Pa., has also been signed. Turf Notes. Hugh Gaffney, the noted steeplechase jockey, died some ten days since in the city of Mexico. He was ruled off the course for striking Salt, in Baltimore, in 1881. On account of ex-Gov. Stanford’s recent be- reavement, the spring and summer engagements of the Palo Alto stable have been cancelled. The trotters will not leave the farm until orders are received fromthe Governor, which will not be until late inthe season. The coits engaged in the National Breeders’ Stakes for the fall meet- ing will probably stay in. H. O. Price & Co, have a gang of 250 men at work on the tracks at the Exposition Park, and expect to open up on Decoration Day with a num- ber of races in the afternoon and a grand display of fireworks at night. ware are also putting in fifty electric lights. and will have horse racing at night; the Great Western Band has been engaged to perform at ail the events that take place dur- ing the summer. Already about-seventy-five ap- plications have been received from geptiemen for the privilege of using the track witb their horses, The track bas been raised, aud it is ciaimea that it will be second to none in the country. Wien everything is completed Price & Co. will have ex- pended nearly $40,000.—[Pittsburg Leader. Ex-Gov.

He purehased tne cafe for $10,000, and the is the Delmonieo“ of the city. Rudolpbe, the ubiquitous, is still in Paris. His eceentricities of character have bro t down upon him the wrath of many persons ia the gay capital, and he is lounging about she cafes of the boulevards iu an aimless sort of a manner. Maurice Daly expresses himself strongly on the Schaefer-Siosson matches, and will lay his money on Schaefer winning. He thinks Schaefer bas improved fully fifty per cent. since he last played a match in this country, and that he played in Paris the best billiards that he ever saw. The third ten-mile professional bicycle cham- plonship race of England was decided at the Aylestone road groudd, Leicester, April 14, and was wen by James Howell by forty yards from R. James in 35 minutes 24 3-5 seconds, The other Starters were F. Wood, tt, F. DeCivey, F. Lees, third; C. Ferront, H. O. Dunean, fourth; C. R. Garrard, A. Hawker and F. Bone. The fastest ~ 4 was the third, 3 minutes 22 seconds, by Fer- ron The experts. Slosson and Schaefer, are hard at work at practice, in Chicago, for thelr forthcom- ing matches of May 12 aud 31. During the past ten days Schaefer has run something over 400 points at eiceht-inen palk-line billiards, scoring 800 points in ten inuings, and another game of up in fourteen innings. Slosson scored io eight inniogs, which is an average of just 100 points. This speed of play, thus early shown, in- dicates great play by both experts on the nignt of the balk-line contest for the championship. It will be a battle for blood,“ eye and tooth, and will well repay one takiug a long journey to wit- ness. It is said that $600 even up has been wag- ered on the game in Cuicago between two ner- chants. Seton now contemplates leaviug for the battle ground May 7.—(Spirit. Wallace has replied to McLaughiin’s proposition to play in Pittsburg, and his story runs as fol- lows: “You propose to play me in Pittsburg, style of game to be decided by toss, As there are sev- era opie of games which have gone out of date since 1 learned to play billiards,1 am not disposed to submit the choice to toss. I am willing to play in Pittsburg, but will allow you §50 expenses to piay in Chicago; or if you do not wish to risk your meney on the balk-line game alone, I will play three a, each $250a side, toss for choice of table in first game, loser of first game the choice of table for the second game and style of game, and the table to be used iu the third game to de décided by choice. The first *zame to be regular three ball, 1,500 points; second game, eight-irch balk-line, 600 points, aud last game cushion-carom, 400 points. All these pace to be played within sixty days from date of acceptance of challenge. 1 will allow $100 for expensesif the games are played in Chleago. I havea forfeit of §100 up.“ —{Spirit. Meeting Barney Morris, Teemer's mentor, a day or two ago, a Pittsburg Leader reporter drew from the Veteran handler of professional ours- men the following In relation to his misunder- standing with the McKeesport wonder. I cau’t imagine What's got into the boy. I do not desire to be egotistical when [ say that I first brought Teemer out, took him from the National Tube Works ana watched him carefully during his maiden efforts as an oarsman, I do not desire to say anything disparagingly against Teemer, but he has in his manner treated me as he did a prom- inent Pittsburg sporting man, and a true iriend to him, financially, two years ago. My Opinion is-this: John has a good opening; he is an oarsman, and no mistake, but like a good many others who have reached fame through ef- forts of persoual friends, who did not play them for money, he has overreached himself, sv to speak, and now the prolessional gamblers have ss flattered him with the idea that there is ‘miil- ons im it“ tnat he has shaken his old friends and gone over the fence—however, don’t say anythibg that would reflect on the boy.” saia r.

Why Brother Gardner Would Not Tol- erate Himin the Lime Kiln Club. From the Detroit Free Press. By actual count there were forty-three members of the club coughing and sneezing at the moment the triangle sounded, and it was not until four minutes after the echoes died away that the president arose from be- hind his desk and said: “If Socrates Spikeroot am in de hall dis eavenin’ I would like to see him out heah in front of de desk.“ Socrates had just crowded himself in be- tween the stove and the wood-box, calculat- ing to get Warmth enough to last him until the next meeting, and he didn’t look over- leased at being disturbed. Whenhe had imped along tothe desk, one hand in his pocket and the other digging into his wool, Brother Gardner continued: er. low long has you bina member of dis club?“ „Bout six months, sah.“ Um! It has been bout three months since I fust had my eye on you, an' to-night ou seder your connéxun wid dis club. isser Spikeroot, it was understood when you jined dis club dat you was a barber. Has you barbed anybody or anythin’ since dat date?“ Ino, sah.“ Ou, de contrary, you has leafed aroun’ saloons an’ policy shops an’ queer places, an’ no man has kndDwn you to do an honest day's work, We doan’ hanker arter sich members as you. When a poo’ man kin lib widout labor people have a right to be suspishus of him. Brudadder Giveadam Jones, you will escort dis pusson to de doah. If, when he gits dar, he should utterany remark deroga- tory to de character of de Lime-Kiin Club, you needn’t put de Bogardus kicker at work. Let him go in peace. What he can say won’t hurt us, an’ you might kick woo hard an’ break a leg.” Alter the late deceased had been shown out and order restored, the president said: “Gem’len, if dar am any mo’ agitators in de hall I want 'em to listen closely. Socrates Spikeroot used to be a hard-workin’ man. All to once he got de ideah dat capital was oppressin’ labor. He quit airnin’ $12 per week bekase he didn’t want to be oppressed. In a month lie became a dead-beat. While it ala serious offense fur capitalists to op- press labor, it am all right fora kicker to go aroun’ borrowin’ money, runnin’ in debt, an’ stealin’ his wood. A few weeks ago Mis- ser Spikeroot got lonesome, an’ he began to agitate. He went to varus laborin’ men an’ convinced 'em dat de man who airns his §12 or $14 per week orter turn out an’ mob de capitalists who furnish him de chance. He am now an agitator.

When a saloon turns him out he threatens to boycott it. Whena man refuses to lend him money he am called a bloated monopolist.

Two women, sisters, kept the toll-bar at & vil in Yorkshire: It stood apart from the village, and they often felt uneasy at — being lone women. ne day they received a considerable sum of money, bequeathed them by a relation, and that set the simple souls ali in a flutter. They had a friend in the vie he biack- smith’s wife; so they went and her their fears. She admitted that theirs was a lone- some place, and she would not live there, for one, without a man. Her discourse sent them home downright miserable. The biacksmith’s wife told her husband all about it when he came in for his din- ner. The fools!” said he: “how is an hody ty know they have got brass in the ho ell,” said the wife, “they make no secret of it to me; but you need not go for to tell it to all the town—poor souls“ “NotI,” said the man; but they wil. publish it, never fear; leave womén-folk alone for making thelr own trouble with their tonaues. There the subject drop as man and wife have things to talk about besides their neighbors. ' The old women at the toll-bar, what with their own fears and their Job's cotuforter began to figure with apprehension as night came on. owever, at sunset the carrier passed through the gate, and at sight of his hey told: him their care, and begged him to slee In the house that night. “Why, how can I? said he; “I’m due at——; but 1 will leave you my dog.” The dog was a powerful mastiff, The women looked at each other expres- sively. He won't burt us, will he?” sighed one of them, faintly. „Not he,” said the carrier, cheerfully. Then he called the dog inte the house, and told them to lock the door, aud went away whistling. he women were left contemplating the dog with that tender interest apprehension is sure toexcite, At first he seemed stag- ered at this off-hand proceeding of his mas- r: it confused him; then he snuffed at the door; then, as the wheels retreated, he be- oy to see plainly he was an abandoned dog; e delivered a fearful how! and flew at the door, scratching and barking furiously. The old women fied the apartment, and were next seen at an upper window, scream- ing to the carrier. Come back, come back, John! He is tearing the house down.” “Drat the varmint!” said John. and caine back. On the road he thought what was best to be done. The good-natured fellow took his great-coat out of the cart and laid it down on the floor. The mastiff instantly laid himself on it. Now,“ said John, stern- ly, “let us have no more nonsense; you take charge of that till I come back, and don’t ye let nobody steal that there, nor yet # wives brass. ere now,” said he kindly to the women, “I shall be back ot way breakfast- time, and he won’t budge till then. „And he won't hurt us, John?“ “Lord, no!

Last night about 2:30 oclock the night clerk at the Hotel Hunt heard groaning in the alley east of the hotel, and, going out to find what causea the noise, discovered J. R. Kirkup, a guest of the hotel and an operator at the Western Union Telegraph Office, lying in the al- ley in an unconscious condition. Sergeant Ryan and another officer responded to a cali for aid, and, summoning an ambulance, had the wounded man conveyed to the Dispensary. An examination by the surgeon revealea the fact that the young man’s back was probably broken and that be was otherwise severely injured, so that his recovery is beyond hope. The injured man was afterward conveyed to the City Hospital. Kirkup has been drinking heavily and came into the hotel last night about midnight under the influence of liquor. He was in a quarrelsome mood and attempted to get up a row with the barkeeper and the clerk until the clerk told him that he must go to his room or he would have him put outof the hotel. Kirkup went upetairs, his room being on the third floor, und that was the last seen of him until he was found on the stone- aved alley in the condition described. He must ave either thrown himself or fallen from bis window, a distance of three stories. Kirkup ts a roan man about 22 years ot age and is from lontreal, Canada. He has been in the city five weeks.
