Murphy so profited by his experience that he got on the stage of Madison Square Garden after Sullivan had deteated Prof Latin. and challenged the great John. Of this he has been boasting ever since Last night he was telling how good a man he was, and was interrupted by a small but active young fellow named Fred Yonkers. Mr. Murphy * and said he would break Mr Yonkers’ nec “You'll break my neck, will you?” asked Yonk- era. F “Yes,” was the reply. Mr. Yonkers jumped at Murphy and hit him in the face. Mr. Murphy struck back. THE CROWD PILED ox, each man having friends who would battle for him. The place was in an uproar. Those who remained ip the bar-room say that as speedily as possible every man drew a pistol and hit the head nearest him with the butt end of the weapon. Singularly enough, Murphy's head was a central point on which all devoted their energies. Mr. Roche took a hand in the fight and soon put the crowd out of doors. After the fracas, Mr. Murphy's head was found to be in a condition that necessitated the use of several yards of plaster. Mr. Yonkers’ eye and face were cut open. He alleged that a strength testing weight bad been used on the optic. A friend assured bim “it was only a pistol.” When quiet was restored the men and boys flock- ed in to the hall. Captain Daly had been named as referee, but Loomar objected to him and Ed Plum- mer was chosen. Then it was discovered that the fighters feared the crowd would shoot them, and had decamped. They were finally brought back to the hall. and soon after entered the ring. Tom Murphy was born in Buxton, England. twenty-two years ago. He is 5 feet 8% inches tall, and weighs 148 pounds. Harry Loomar is 21 years old,5 feet7 inches tall, and weighs 138 pounds. The fight was desperately contested from the start to the finish In the first round both men slugged with all their strength and made but few efforts to stop blows. Loomar’s nose was hit so hard that a light stream of claret poured forth In the second round they RUSHED AT BACH OTHER LIKE DEMONS. Murphy planted heavy blows in the pit of his an- tagonist’s stomach with telling effect. Loomar drove his left and right duxes into Murpuy's front, and soon had the imported athlete's face the color of raw beef. Then one of his eyes began to fill and when time was called. they were struggling on the ropes like cats on a back fence. Terrific struggling was done by both in the third round, but Loomar was getting weak. In the fourth round Murphy fell from the force of his own blow delivered at mar’s face. The latter cross-coun- tered him a short while later,and Murphy stag- Loomar to a stand still. : Just before time was called, Loomar went to the floor. Great excitement followed and Referee Plummer was cheered when he announced that Murphy had won the battle and the $250 purse. A FEMALE FIEND Mrs. Burke Wrecks a Train in Revenge for the Arrest of Her Husband, Grarron, W.

When the officials investigated the affair it was evident that robbery was not the object, for the point where che wreck occurred is but 100 yards from three or four houses. The only motive for the wrecking of the train, it was believed, was revenge. The only thing found about the wreck was a large clasp-knife of peculiar pattern by the detectives in the course of a few days, and quite by accident they learned that Mike Burke, who was in jail for stealing goods from the Baltimore and Ohio cars, 2 or more, — her.

A SAD ROMANCE. Benson, the Suicide, and His Engagement With the Beautiful Miss Larabie. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga., January 6.--George A. Ben- son of Philadelphia, who committed suicide here Saturday morning, wasa son of the head of the house of Benson & Townsend. He was under ar- rost on a charge of cheating and swindling. He stopped at the Markham House, Atlanta, for three weeks. Ou his departure he had no money, and 4 gave the proprietor a check on the house for $100, and received the difference of about $50. At the same time he gave a second check for $100, saying that when they were cashed to notify him at w- renceville. and he would draw on them for the money. The checks were dishonored, hence the warrant. Mr. Benson said, while under arrest, that they would have been bonored if his father had been in the house at the time. He was here ona visit to E. D. Herrin. One evident cause ot the suicide was his want of means, but another was a love affair. The Coroner turned over to Mr. Her- rin, as the most intimate friend of the dead man, a batch of eighty-six letters from Miss R A Larabie, a daughter of J. Larabie, a member of the firm of J. Larabie & Co. of Albany, N. Y. Her letters are PERFECT GEMS OF LITERATURE, gered to his knees but quickly recovered and fought | replete with expressions of the most ardent and in- tense devotion. lt seems from them that a ripple had broken their love, no one can tell what, but she loved and adored him stil. She isa young lady of culture and refinement,and moves in the hignest cir- cies of New York society. In one of ber letters she writes of having been invited to receive last Febru gary atthe White House with Mrs. McElroy, the sister of President Arthur, and her daughter, to- getber with jhe Cabinetiadies. They were engaged to be married last April, but shadows came between them which seemed to forbid their union, and the later letters are filled with expressions of despair. | The body has been sent to Philadeipuia, and the let- ters have been sent by express to the young lady in Albany.

The witness heard various rumors of irregular pay- ments of money to secure the lease, but could not trace them toa reliable source. A recess was taken until this evening. Treaties and Whisky. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch Wasnreoron, D. C., January 6.—There is a notice. able growth in favorable sentiment here regarding not only the Nicaraguan but also the Spanish : treaty. Indications now point strongly to the con- firmation of the Nicaraguan treaty with the chances 1 about even on the Spanish treaty. ' There is a good dea! of interest here to-day as to . what will be the decision of the Treasury part- meut on the Question permitting whisky to remain in bond on the dec/aration of intent to export. While the friends of the whisky men are hopeful, those who have no particular ivterest in the matter think it doubtful whether any material change in i the regulations will be made. It may be that r McCulloch, who seemed favorably impressed with * — f the proposition Saturday, will change his mind after talking the matter over in the Cabinet to-day. Itseems probable that if there is any extension under this decision, it will not be for any considera- bie period. | The Situation in IIIinois. if By Telecraph to the J oat-Dispatch. WASH NGToN, D.

There must he, it is stated, under the constitution, a majority of all the members on the joint ballot voting for any one per- : son to elect him. Thus tbe fact that one or more on either side might remain absent, or cast scattering votes, is of no consequence. There must be 108 | | | votes for the man who is to be elected. The sound- | est Democrats wil! solidly be united on Moulton, for one Republican said to be piedged. There is, it is held, no prospects of an election. The impression is gaining ground here that there will be no election . avd that Governor Oglesby will appoint a Senator | probably Logan, and chat the legality of such ap- pointment will finally be acted upon by the State. —— Pate ne, A Customary Farce.

The necessary witnesses have been here for a day or two, but the Committee met this morn- | ing, and because the witnesses did not choose to be present, itadjourned without domg anything. It is now a full year since this Committee was directed by the House to investigate the charges of crooked- * ness in Indian Territory affairs, but aside from summoning a few witnesses, and neglecting to get ¥ any information from them, it has done nothing. The Exhibition in London. Wasnixorton, D. C., January 6.—The Star says: 1 „The Governors of twenty States have been written to, to express a desire to co-operate in making the American exhibition to be held in London in 1886, a faithful and thorough exposition of the arts, manu- factures and products of the United States. g Gilmer Speed, the agent here, has recei very general assurances from public men of their hearty support of the resolution now before Congress, providing for an of- ficial participation in the exhibition by the Gov- ernment, With this in view, itis proposed to take the Government exhibits now at New Orleans tg London on a public vessel.

The lines are being closely drgwn between the op- posing forces, and there appears in places an occasional tinge of bitterness in the contest. Haines and Tavior, the Adams County Representatives, whose Democracy is considered were present at the informal caucus this morning, at which it was arranged to hold tke reg- ular party cancus to-night. Senator Hank Ruger arrived on a morning tram from Chicago. and at once went to bed ina hotel adjoining the Chicago and Alton depot, without registering. He will not attend the Republican caucus to-night, but the Re- ublicans claim be will vote for the party nominee or Seuator. FOR A HIGHER TRUST.

Shortly after his arrival he penned bis resignation, All is bustle and excitement in the Capitol to-day over the resignation of the President-elect, and the succession of Lieutenant-Governor Hill, as Mr. Cleveland's ' successor. A few tardy lezisiators arrived this morning. It is generally believed that the fight over the . will be a long and bitter one. The following is the summary of the proceedings now about commencing.

His New Pian of Crowding Mr. Moses Fraley. The latest move in the Francis-Fraley fight for supremacy in the St. Louis wheat market came to the surface late to-day. Moses Fraley is long on an immense amount of May wheat, while Francis is short nearly as much, and is still selling, adding to his line as much as much as possible, Fraley, by his purchase yesterday of cash wheat, got out of Francis’ clutches so far as January wheat was concerned, and, as the May option was then booming, held the age“ for the day over his adversary. Now it is that Francis intends to break the May option by offering all the cash wheat he holds for sale, and hereby creating a panic. The markets of Chi New York, and other leading speculative cen were ali largely lower to-day, thus aiding Frandis in breaking the St. Louis market. He wag gelli ail day to-day, and fternoon was offerin — wheat at 88 cents, or 4 cents lower than it 801 terday.

Further Preparations for Active Work by the Sanitary Committee, - — 1 A Clear Statement of What is Expected of the Municipal Authorities. The meeting of gentlemen interested in the work of cleaning the city, at the Laclede yesterday, was not entirely satisfactory with regard to one of its chief objects. The members of the Municipal As sembly did not all respond to the request for ten names in their respective wards of gentlemen who would be suitable to act as collectors. Only fifteen of the members of the House of Delegates were present, and there are yet thirteen to report. In order that time may be saved, the assistant secre- tary will call on these gentlemen and will obtain the list from them, so that the books can made up ready for distribution at once. A meeting of the collectors bas been called for Thursday night at the Laclede, when the books will be given them and work can be commenced at once. The collectors who are ap- pointed since the list —— this morning will be notified and it is of first importance that all collectors should be present at that meet ing. MR. THOMPSON, the treasurer, speaking of the work this morn- ing. said that he would see that the books were r and that work would be inaugurated as soon as they could be placed in their hands. It will then require some time to have the city thoroughly canvassed. The work of the collectors is entirely voluntary and none of the money will be used except for the especial purpose for which it was subscribed. There will, therefore, be no leak in the way of unreas- onable expenses or salary lists. Mr. Thompson has determined as a check on himself and the collectors, and to serve as receipts for the pie, to have the amounts subscri and collected published. In this way there can be no danger of any sub- scription being lost sight of. MR. JOSEPH SPECHT was feeling very much encouraged this morning at the prospect,and at the shape in which the work was getting. “[ think this thing has been gone at right.” he said, Me are getting down to it now in good shape. The assistant secre will see all of the delegates who have not given in their lists and the books can be given to allof them Thursday. On Saturday there Will probably be a meeting of the executive committee to begin to form the plan for carrying on the work, although, of course, this cannot be de- finitely settled untilwe know exactly the amount of money we can depend on to accomplish our pur- pose. Me do not want to promise more than we can do nor excite false ho in the people.” In the matter of the tegislation asked of the city, Mr. Specht made a clear statement of the wants of the committee. “I wanted,” he said, just the statement made which was made last night with re- spect to the city's finances. One of the obligations which wil be § urged inst giving by many applied to by the collectors will be that they have paid taxes, licenses and every- thing else necessary to secure municipal govern- ment, and the city should do the work. The only answer that can be given to objec- tion is that no matter what the city should do it has no money to do this, and it lies between letting it alone or doing it ourselves. It isa mere matter of self-preservation, + I believe, will be regarded as such by the peo- pie. WE MUST PROTECT OURSELVES, the health and safety of our families, and we must protect our business. To do this we must take hold and do this work. Nowasto the $10,000 asked of the city. That is all the legislation we want, We have plenty of lawto back up what we propose to O0. but it requires experts and scientific men to discover ex- actly whnerethe nuisances most detrimental to merchants to go to work and attempt to nose around and find the nuisances and unclean spots, We might, too, fritter away a large part of our funds employing men to do it for us. ‘Therefore we ask of the city to appropriate $10,000 for the maintenance of a good oe of inspectors to seek and point out 2 where the work must be done. The city should do this much. at any rate, and then, under the direction of the city’s in- spectors and officers, we can apply our money tothe practical work of cleaning up. As far as the money goes the two departments will be distinct, and the city authorities will disburse its funds and we will disburse our cash. I think that more good can be done in this way. The work will be all laid out, and the citizens will have nothing to do but to have taken away what has been discovered to be detrimental to the public health.” A RECEIVER WANTED. The Harrison Wire Works Absolutely In- solvent—New Proceedings in Court. The Harrison Wire Company's complication is about to assume a new shape in the courts. An application was made this morning in Judge Thay- er's court by John D. Davis, representing a number of bondholders of the company for the appointment of a trustee under the original deed of trust in place of Dr. James N. te, who declines to act. The court granted the application and ap- pointed Isaac M. Mason trustee. Following imme- ey upon this a suit was instituted in the clerk's after reciting the exceution of the deed of trust to secure tne issue of 150 bonds of $1,000 each and the su t default inthe payment of interest it states two of the trustees, James M. Leete and John D. Filley, had refused to act in the premises, that n and the other, John D. was a no that the plaintiff in this suit ha ae trustee in the place of James M. as, at the request of a iarge number of bondholders, filed this bill. It further states that company is ractically insolvent, that two defaults ave been made in the aprons of on the bonds a that the mortgage should, therefore, be closed. There is. besides, two small r incumbrances on the prop- erty, which amount to about $7. and foreclosure is threatened under these. The then prays that a receiver be appointed to take of the affairs of the company and protect gen the interests of all partike concerned.

Harney’s Children fora Receiver—How a Fortune Begun in 1804 Later—Some Flourishes Eighty Years Scraps of Family History. The suit bronght yesterdayin the Circuit Court against Gen. Wm. S. Harney and his wife, late Mrs, Lizzie St. Cyr, by the children of General Harney, revives all the gossip which was afloat two months ago when the aged bridegroom mumbled out the re- sponses that made him and his private secretary one. General Harney's position in the army, his great wealth and his family connections made him a center of interest, and such an important event as bis marriage was sure to set all the tofgues wag- ging that bad anything to say about the Mullan- phys, one of whom brought him bis property, or the descendant of the Cromwells, who had served him during his senile decay, and finally married him to his great comfort and pleasure, getting as her re- ward a fortune which she had richly earned and a great deal of criticism which she in no way de- served. The suit begun yesterday was merely the ex- pected sequel of the wedding. In it John M Har- ney, the Vicomte de Thury and his wife, born Annie B. Harney, the Comte de Noue and his wife, born Eliza Harney, join in asking that receiver be ap- pointed to take charge of the preperty mortgaged by the Harney famity to the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance — * pope aloan of 8880. 000. It was agreed when mortgage was made that the property pledged should be placed in the hands of an agent who would its revenue to the interest and to a fund on the principal of the one-half of the money was paid to the children and one-half to Gen. ee: Since his marriage, it is alleged, he has withdrawn this property from the agents hands and diverted the income to other the vurden ot the mortg purposes, wi upon the chitiren. = There is now due on this m interest due, $5,151 90, property 8840, 000, wit pe pe taxes des $18,000.

By a rocess of natural accumulation, the property of ary Harney has nearly six tripled so that what in 1834 was estimated roug!ly at $240,000 is now known to be worth over $1,200,000. Itis altogether landed property, and it is out of the question to at- tempt to give any inventory of nt. It is saui that one of the safes in the Turner and Company is filled with the tithe deeds of the different parcels of land, of which the General is the tenant by the courtesy. However this mar be it is certain that there is a great deal of property waiting for General Harney’s death to go to its owners. Nearly allof it is located in North and West St. Louis. The old General was born with the century, and isnow 84 years old, not 86 as some of the papers have stated.

TUESDAY, JANUARY, 6, 1885. ‘Tnx Springer investigating committee would do well to visit St. Louis. Tux evidence as to the way the October election in Cincinnati was carried does not speak well for the morality of the Grand Old Party. — eee sme sal ConGressuan O'NEILL holds the House as if he were a veteran of many terms of service, whereas he is only at the swallow-tail end of his first term. With an advance in wheat to cheer the farmers, and a reopening of quite a number of iron mills, the prospect of the year is mater- ially improved. — — SEVERAL of the Eastern iron mills which closed “indefinitely” about erection times have started on work at the old rates. It is hard work repressing such a country as ours. ä mꝛeꝛeꝛeꝛ— xZx—! er - — — SENATOR BEcK wants to get up a new tariff commission to make a new report next Decem- ber. What is the matter with the old commis- sion and the old report? — —— ͤ — — ee Tux failure of the attempts to call up the bankruptcy bill and the Hiscock bill indicates that there will not be much accomplished in the way of legislation, but there is no diminution in the zeal of the members in bringing in new bills. The great advantage of bill day is that it enables zealous. members of Congress to claim a great deal of credit for the measures they would have passed, without incurring any of the responsibilities which might result if their bills were passed. — aa — ee eee — — CONGRESSMAN BRECKINRIDGE wants to es- tablish a new department of government, to be called the River and Harbor Department, and to be in charge of a commissioner of rivers and barbors. We have somehow managed to spend a great dea] of money for our rivers and harbors without a commissioner, but no doubt there are channels in which such an official might make himself useful. He would certain- ly help us to reduce the surplus, which is the one great object of current legislation, and he would be a bigger man than the door-keeper of the House. — — As the party-fidelity candidate for Senator against ARTHUR, Mr. Evarts said in announc- ing himself: ‘‘In this last, as in every earlier struggle to maintain the supremacy of the Republican policy in the government of the country, Ihave given every aid in my power to the support of the policy, the doctrines and the candidates of the Republican party.” This brought the late Judge FOLGER’s private secre- tary. out with a statement that, in answer toa letter asking him to make one speech for Fol- GER as the Republican nominee for Governor of New York, Mr. Evarts wrote a positive re- fusal cdupled with remarks that greatly de- pressed the spirits of Judge Fol axR. If the friends of ARTHUR and FOLGER had used the tomahawk of faction as ruthlessly against BLAINE in the late contest as BLAINE and his New York friends used it against FoLonn, CLEVELAND would have carried New York — — — again by 192,000 majority. Tak evidence of Marshal Wricut before the Springer Committee was that he had done his best to secure a full, free and fair election. He has done this by picking out thirteen hundred zealous Republicans, who came to him recom- mended by Republican officeholders. He was certain of their politics;as to whether they were disreputable characters or not he declines to commit himself. His idea of duty was to arm these strangers with revolvers—we pre- sume in order to prevent anybody from inter- fering with the Democrats in casting their votes. In order to further secure protection to all vot- ers small bands of professional Republican poli- ticians were sent on from St. Louis and else- where, their expenses paid, their leave of ab- sence secured, and we may be sure they did not suffer any pecuniary loss on account of their absence from duty. The zeal of the Republican officeholders in securing an impartial election severely.” In specifying the outrages referred to, the 7ribune mentions the fact that, in the intervals between the closing and the opening inbuman conduct we cannot say, but it is appar- ent that the railroads have not yet deprived her of any of her gall. OUR CABINETS. The feverish interest taken by the newspa- pers, and especially by the Republican organs, in the speculations as to the probable composi- tion of CLEVELAND’s Cabinet, must strike a foreign student of our institutions as wholly | unwarranted by the importance of the positions or the political significance of the appointments. Our Cabinet is not a Government. responsible for the course of legislation and bound to re- sign when it can no longer propose measures acceptable to the Legislature nor maintain a partisan majority therein. It is merely a con- clave of the head clerks of the executive department. Its members are the President's chosen advisers, his con- fidential secretaries in the practical. business of administration. We have seen Mr. ArtruuR’s Secretaries in their reports differing from each other and from him on great questions of public policy, and not only both houses of Congress, but both parties therein again and again casting votes which would have compelled what is called “a responsible ministry” to resign or immediately appeal to the people to elect a new Legislature in harmony with the Administration. Whata variety of Cabinet officers we had during GRANT'S two terms, and what significance was there in the appointment of any one of them? A timely and much relished dinner given to GRANT at the Fish mansion on the Hudson made the hospitable host Premier, and a series of similar entertainments gave us ROBESON, Borie, JEWELL and other statesmen previously unknown to fame, and to whom fame subse- quently played the part of a cruel detective. HayYEs gave out Cabinet positions as fees to his attorneys in the Eight to Seven case and chose a Confederate Brigadier who had voted against him as his Postmaster-General. His vetoes were repeatedly over-ridden by the votes of Republicans in both houses of Congress, and for twelve years past we have had Republican Administrations in Washington which did not represent the policy of the party and have been repudiated by it again and again. It will, of course, be better for Mr. CLxVx- LAND and for the country if he chooses as his Secretaries and advisers men of such high character and qualifications as to lend some significance to his selections and give assurance that his Administration will represent some- thing, and wield in Congress and in the country an influence nobler and more whole- some than that of a mere office-peddling and spoils-trading machine. But evidently this latter idea of the Cabinet-making business is at the bottom of the importance which so many journals and politicians attach toit. Re- publican Administrations have so long subordi- nated everything to the spoils machine, that some people leok forward to the new Cabinet asanew machine from the composition of which they can forecast the fate of men and measures, the wreck of old parties and the rise of new ones. Mr. CLEVELAND, however, has very clearly indicated that the central idea of his administration will be simply to discharge in a faithful business way the executive duties im- posed upon him by the Constitution and the laws, and that the conntry will be ruled by the people's representatives in Congress, and not by him or his head clerks, They will be there merely to execute the laws, and to give. for what it may be worth, such information or ad- vice as Congress may call for. D — THE London Economist does not believe that the United States will ignore or violate the lently canceled by the action of our Govern- ment, the Economist thinks Great Britain will find ample means for the protection of her com- mercial interests in perfectly peaceful meas- ures. By aiding the enterprise of M. pz Lzxs- SEPS at Panama she can secure all the rights conceded to her in the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, and protect her commerce from differential tolls. This is an intimation that our Nic- araguan treaty is to be the salvation of the ds Lesseps enterprise, by compelling England to furnish the means without which it would never be completed. If she does this she will own and control it as she does the Suez Canal. With the successful completion of a tide-water canal at Panama assured, our lift- lock canal in Nicaragua would either fall through or prove comparatively valueless to us. What we might gain in directness of route to some Pacific ports, we should lose in a longer canal route with delays at the locks. It begins to be suspected that the chief bene- ficiaries of that Nicaraguan treaty project will be De Lesseps and the jobbers whb are so covertly but so liberally provided for in the treaty stipulations. Tae French demonstration yesterday at the former residence of GamMBETTA can only serve to render conspicuous the weakness of France and the folly of those Frenchmien who make revenge a part of their patriotic programme. Fourteen years ago, when France held Alsace and Lorraine, and kept thé Eastern frontier de- fended with a line of fortresses that challenged the admiration of the world, the German troops were only six weeeks in marching from | the attention of so large a part of the German ‘Stanley's Congo country is true. The Congo River Clayton-Bulwer treaty. But in case it is vio- | army. The fortresses are in German hands, not in French ones. Germany has grown vastly stronger and France weaker. Under the circumstances there is something pitiful in the spectacle of a few thousand Parisians, who are more ready to fight each other than to fight any one else, going out to pay homage to a dead man and uttering empty demands for “revenge.” — — Randall's Mistake. From the New York World. Mr. Randall is a Protectionist and us a Pennsyl- vanian a sturdy opponent of Free Trade, his views as to Revenue Reform do not harmonize with those of the bulk of the Democratic party. Mr. Randall denounces the system of internal taxation and demands that the internal revenue system shall be abolished. We differ from Mr. Randall totally on this point, and so does the Democratic party. During the last fiscal year the tax collected on distilled spirits and fermented liquors was 304. 990. 839. We do not believe that the people desire to see this tax removed and the tariff increased 80 as toadd to the cost of articles of necessary con- sumption in the poorest man’s family and to build up to yet grander proportions the profits of monopolies. We expect to reduce the expenditures. We shall do so. We expect to reduce taxation, but in so doing we favor a reduction which will be a direct advantage to labor, both through incidental protec- tion and the lessening of the cost of living. Mr. Randall favors the rapid reduction of the national debt and proposes to use all the present Treasury surplus for that purpose. There is no reason why the people of the present keneration should be loaded down with taxation to pay hurriedly a debt not due and which can be gradually extinguished without being made oppressive. As tothe surplus, there are constitu- tional ways of applying it.in a manner to ease the public burdens and without embarking in any of those jobs without constitutional warrant for which the Republican party looked forward in case of a continuance in power. Some Idea of the Congo Trade. From the Philadelpia Times. What is the use of wasting time on the beggarly Spaniards and tueir trade if one-half what is said of itself has a direct navigable length of 1,060 miles, fiowing through a valley providing 5,000 miles of available commerce. The population is 90,000,000 people. There is gold and silver. copper and iron, forests, gems, spices, cSttons and all the elements of enormous wealth. Stanley says of this wonder- fuland rich region, heretofore hidden from the gaze of the world. that it has 10,000 miles of river banks; that his only weapon of defense in journey- ing up and down 9,000 miles of the banks for six years was an umbrella. The value of the trade of the Lower Congo is about $15,000 annually; of the Upper Congo, if equally developed, it would be $550,000,000. The present articles of commerce are ivory, gum, coral, India-rubber, orchel weed. ground cammood, coffee, nutmegs, copper, etc. Stanley bas rendered services which, if uttiized, will place hun higher up in history than were he the slayer of tens of thousands of men. St. John’s Accuser. From the New York Evening Post. Mr. St. John has replied that all persons making such charges against him are liars, and he calls on them to produce their evidence, The issue thus made up is very plain, and we do not see how Mr. Ciarkson can avoid doing one of two things. He must either being forward his proofs or acknowl- edge that he is a base calumniator. We do not be- lieve that he has any proofs. We do not believe that Mr. St. John ever made or entertained any proposition of a pecuniary nature from the Repub- iican or Democratic party, or any individual, either to be a candidate or to refrain from being one. The inglorious retreat of Mr. Clarkson from his contro- versy with Postmaster-General Hatton, when he accused the latter of preventing the New York Post Office clerks from voting for Blaine by refusing them the necessary time to deposit their ballots, suggests either that he is a person given to making charges against others which he cannot sub- stantiate, or that he has received some great mental and moral contusion since the election, — * Calling a Halt on Pensions. From the Philadelphia Times. The National Commander of the Grand Army of the Republic has issued a general order disapprov- ing the attitude of the Massachusetts branch of the organization in advocating the passage of a pension bill placing all soldiers of the late war on the rolls at 88 a month. Many of the local organizations in Massachusetts have changed their opinion of late and have reversed their action in mdorsing the measure. It ought to be plain to any intelligent observer that the country is now in greater danger from an enlarged pension list than from all other evils which threaten it. The arrears bill has cost so much beyond even the wildest estimates of its op- ponents that it might well stand as a continual warning. With more than three hundred thousand pensioners on the roll the nation cannot be taxed with ingratitude, and it might well be permitted to recuperate its resources for a time, until it can re- lieve the suffering millions to whom the war and its attendant dangers are little more than dim tradi- tions. Scarcity of Money In the West. From the Kansas City Journal. But the fact is money can hardly be obtained in the East at the present time to loan in the West. We know some companies which have always loaned heavily in Kansas and Missouri which began to draw in last August. Their agents have sent them hundreds of the best kind of applications for money, but they have failed up to this date to ob- tain it. What has produced this condition of things we do not know. — Jay Should Pause. Washington Special to Springfield Republican. It is reported here that Jay Gould is to stop in Washington three or four days on his way to Flori- da. His object is to present arguments to Senators for passing the Pacifie Railroad Debt Extension bill. Some of the shrewder railroad agents here are urging him not to do so, as they think any act- ive show of interest on his part will harm the roads much more than it will help them. The Iron Jaw. From the New York World. : The official statement that the public printing bill in Washington for last year is nearly three million dollars more than double what it was five years ago—is not followed by the announcement that the publication of the Congressional Record will be dis- continued, nor does there seem to be any cessation of the effort—at least on his own part—to send Will- iam Maxillary Evarts to the United States Senate. — — POLITICAL DRIFT.

Gexerat Rosecrans begins to loom. He is in- dorsed by the famous “Spinner’s Union’’ of Fall River,Mass., for the position of Secretary of War. Since the weight of the Government has been lifted from the shoulders of the Ohio men there has been a noticeable decrease in the number of bow- legged citizens. Ir Mr. Blaine would give a part ofthe profits of his book toward the election of Mr. Arthur to the Senate the Republican party would be once more united. SexaTor Cameno®’ is understood to be out with a microscope searching for the mugwump who is going to run against him for United States Senator. He was unable to find anybody witb the naked eye. Tun Albany Journal (Rep.) says: The letter of Governor Cleveland in reply to the inquiry of the Civil Service Reform League is so creditable to him and so satisfactory to every friend of good gov- ernment that itis simple justice to give it com- mendation. All of the present appointments to postmaster- ships, eto., will expire during the first and second years of the next Presidential term: So with most of the other places that goto make up the ninety odd thousand that are not within the classified Civil Service lists. The President will have enough to do in filling these places with good Democrats, as they fall in, without sending out a crier to ob- tain applicants. — Denver (Col.) News: William M. Evarts wants to be a United States Senator from New York If wind can beat wealth in a Republican Legislature Mr. Evarts may defeat Morton, but we do not look for that result. Evarts has tired too many of his fellow-citizens by the free use of his lungs to be a popular candidate. Morton isa millionaire many times repeated, and his signature at the bottom of a check is more eloquent than any speech that Mr. Evarts or any other New York politician can make. — MEN OF MARX.

Spectal Correspondence af the Post-Dispatch. Wasnineron, J anuary 4.—Phil Thompson’s friends keep hammering away regarding bis candidacy for the position of Commissioner of Internal Revenue, “I consider it pretty nearly as good as settled,” said his twin brother, John Thompson, who is so much like him that only those who know them intimately can tell the one from the other. “I consider it pretty much a settled thing. Kentucky has the place already, and as she is the great whisky-making she is asking this, and this only. Her people are unjted in wanting this. and are omitting to ask for any Cabinet place. If there is any State in the country that has a right to ask for a Cabinet piace it is Kentucky. She is the spinal column of the Democratic party of the country, And if she was entitled under Republican administration to the Commissionership, she certainly ought to be uncer Democratic. I believe it is conceded that Phil has shown inteiligent ability touching the internal rev. enue in the House, and having been familiar wth revenue law, there seems every, reason that he might make @ Commissioner.”’ see ) “I see,” said a Senator who has been here ten and is very familiar with the financial con- of most of the members of the Senate, “I ses that the stories of great wealth in the Senate are e the country again. They show up seven seven millions, nor six, nor five, nor four, nor three, nor two millions, and I know it. I happe ion to know just what lam talking about, in case and those of several others. Now, there is the case of Senator McMillan. He is classed as a rich man, when, in fact, he is not worth ten thou dollars. I doubt if Coke of Texas is talked of as wealthy. He is not. ppi is put in the same category, y he has is some : come of from $50,000 to $75,000 a year. think $100,000 in fortune and an income of $10.000 a yeas.

The fact is that he isa wholesale grocer, worth, perha $50,000, Palmer of Michigan, who is said to be millionaire. is not, though he is probably worth about $750,000. Sabin. whé is called a very rich — really far em 1 N ** indeed, that there are plenty o pie who say that he is really not worth $100,000." “Are there the great opportunities for members of Conary to mak o money that have been repre- sented?" “If there are I haven't found or heard of them. I have never, in my fifteen or more years of leyis- lative experience, seen an opportunity to make a dollar in what are usually termed jobs.“ Indeed, I don't believe that any money is made now, as there was just after the war, by being let into profitable investments for services rendered. It is a mistaken idea that men grow wealthy in Congress. There are afew whodo, but they are of the sort who wauld grow rich under any circumstances, There's John Sherman, for instance. He would get rich anywhere.“ bine Mr. John Gilmer Speed, the Commissioner for the American Exposition, to be held in London, in 1886, who has been here some time in the interests of that enterprise, — ‘hay its prospects very encour- aging.

Speed will remain here during the winter, 1 A gentleman who spent some time at Mentor just after tite election of 1880, who’ was here a or two ago, tells of Garfield's first knowledge of the man at whose hands he afterwards met death. “I was sitting with Gen. Garfield one day, he said, “when one of his secreta- ries, who were e opening and arranging the very heavy mall that was coming to him. handed him: & letter. The General read it and smiled, turuing to Marshall Jewell, who to present, asked him if he knew thie author of the communication, handing the lefter to him for inspection. ‘Yes,’ Jewell answered, that fellow G is a worthless cuss who has heen hanging around our committee rooms in New York trying to get some campaign work to do. He tells a wild story, as he does in this letter, about a prom- ised matrimonial alliance with a very wealthy fam- ily. He is a crank, apparently, and no My. curiosity was somewhat aroused, and I was = mitted to read letter. It was, as I recall it written ona Fifth Avenue Hotel letterhead, and ran something like this: Mx Dear GENERAL~—AST am about to marry a lady of great wealth, and as I have a stauncn friend and supporter of you and the Republican rty generaily, we have concluded that it would le to us if I could represent the United States during a stay of several years abroad, which we contemplate. Upon the principle of first come, first served, I take this early opportunity of making i 1 for appointment as Miniscer of the States to Austria. Sincercly yours, „nan J. Guireav.’ “That was Garfield's first knowledge of the man who finally took his life. How little he, or any of us, indeed, thought as we lauched over that letter what the terrible sequel was to be.

This is comment Dr. Fulton and his masic committee evidently be lieve in solemn and simple music and in congress tional oging. This chorus plan is a sep in this direction. They want to get the simpiicity and volume which a chorus gives in hopes t the people will be led to jom in the singing. 2 — ance of this plan the charge of the music has been given to Prof. Nort. to carry out the idea as best he The chorus made its first appearance last day. Including the leader there were fourteen l confess I was greatiy iisappointed in the result, as I feel sure most of the et i} ~ congregation was. It was to be expected that the bess of individual strength 15 the substitution of fourteen inferior voices for four well-selected, trained and fine voices would be compensated for by an increase in collective strength, a gain in volume. If tus is not done there is all loss and no gain in the ex- chan - 9 2 * A good quartet can be used just as one pleases to use it, as ieaders in simple devotional music or to render difficult operatic music. The duplication or tripiicatioa of such a quartet into a chorus could not but a gun in every res but the only excuse for the substitution of a chorus with three times the numoer of poor voices for such a quartet would be im the increase in volume to make up for De sacrifice. Has this been done at St. George's? I believe the general verdict would be “no” if the judgment should be passed on last Sunday's performance. A reed chorus without pipe quartet. That seems to be about the long aud short of it. 5 „ „* The chorus idea is undoubtedly a good one. Give a director carte blanche and he will make such a success of it that the quartet will be lost is com- perison, bul the rub comes in right bere. He bas nat blanche, but ts limited. The talent d. « > carte minishes io direct proportion to the salary. Give him 32.00. which. i believe. is somewhere ip the peaghborbood of Professor North's allowance, and * pasoabe quartet might be collected. but compel iyi io 72% thirteen singers and himself out of this sum and the resuit is—well, something u the nature of a public singing school. The chorus of St. George's offersexcepuunal advan- tages to earners at present, as, in addition to tui- tion, & man bonus is offered. There was no noticesble individual streneth in the chorus, and it lacked volume; the collective tone was thin and the work, although Com- paratively simple, was not thoroughly mastered The chorus which Prof. North base collected m- Ars. Dean Cooper, Mrs. David Miss May Wilson: altos— Miss Dougherty. Wheaton. Miss Emma Meyer; tenors—Prof. North himself, Mr. Waiter Gilliam, Mr. E. M. Pace; bassos—Mr. David Hayes, Mr. Ar- cludes as sopranos: Hayes, Miss Isaacs, * Mrs. thur U. de d. Mr. Ashton and Mr. Tiernan. ‘The organist is Mr. Benedict. 8 0 The director's idea evidently is to divide his chorus into quartets and treat them in training as suc): rather than as individuals. This was dome as pear as possiple, with tuo over. He selected his best voices asthe principal quartet to do the most difficu.t work and to serve as leaders. This quartet Was Conip sal of Mr. Gilliam, whose voice is dec.dediy thin for solo work: Mr. David Haves, Mrs. Dean Cooper and Mrs. Wheaton. Mrs. Cooper has a rather Sweet and ve weil trained soprano, while ! Hayes’ baritone is not strong, but is pleasing in tone. With the sacrifice of in- dividual voiee which had to be made to command thirteen cucristers, I should call it some- thing m the nature of a blunder to attempt, as yet at auy rate, anything but chorus work. 5 * * This much must be said for this chorus: that the members have been practicing together only a short lime; that the possibiilties of the idea as put in practice at St. George's are limited, and that for an opening programme they had a great deal of work todo. With the three numbers required in the columumon service, the entire programme con- tained twenty-four pieces. 2 „ „6 The plan may be considered in its inception as yet aud improvement wal certainly come as the needs of the chorus are discovered, and developed. Failure has not by any means been indelibly Stamped on it as yet, aud the departure at st. George's will be watched with interest by those who have anything to do with church music. AMEN-CORNER. Du.

Special ndence of the Post Dispatch. Wasnmarox. D. C., January 4. — The recent pub- lication by a local paper here of soms of the pecul- iarities of Congressman Broadhead of Missouri, an aspirant for Cabinet honors, briugs to mind similar oddities of other statesmen. Mr. Broadhead, it is asserted, is 80 absent-minded as to have walked down town with but one overshos on, and gone into the public library and ordered chicken and celery, forgetting where he was for the moment. While not many statesmen are quite so much troubled with _ | 4 Sen- a ess, Some of them have ways that are quite as peculiar. It could have been nothing but absent-mindedness, for instance, that led Judge Reagan, who hag been the most conspicuous mem- ber of the House since its session began last month, to appear at the President's New Year's reception in a swallow-tail, so full of wrinkles that one could not help supposing it had just come out of a rag bag in some garret, especially so when tailor shops are On every square, and-five minutes and a quarter of a dollar would have made it look like a new coat. It was another case of the same trouble that led a distinguished member from Kentucky to make an unfavorable report the other day on a bill that has been passed in the last session, and signed by the President. It is this, combined with force of habit, that makes the naval officers, when they are on duty in the Navy Department, pace back and for- ward from one corner of the room to the other un- til they actually wear a path in the Brussels carpet with which the floors of their rooms are covered. “They have been so long accustomed to ‘walking the quarter deck, said an atiache of the depart- ment, “that they cannot help walking when they have anything on their minds. If they have ant matter on which they want to give especial atten- tion and thought, they are sure to find themselves walking up and down their rooms before the prob- m is solved. When they are off duty, it is no un- common thing to see them pacing up and down the | walks of their residences, with a regular sea dog's roll in their step. Almost any afternoon, even when tae weather is very cold, if you walk or ride by the beautiful residence of Admiral Shufeidt, who is now aad down the walk between the gate and his house, merely from force of habit. [If it were for the sake of the exercise, any other than one whose habits of | life had confined him to the “quarter deck“ would extend his walk around the square or down some of the beautiful avenues, or to the Capitol. The bad as to remind them of the long distance. They have fallen into the habit of walking because they need the exercise, and so they always walk. In Congress this force of habit is often apparent. minded lawyer, who has perhaps struggled tor an heur to catch the Speaker's eve and get recognition, addressees him as “Your Honor.“ forgetting at that very moment when he ought to have his wits most about kim where he is, and supposing himself in the court-room and the Speaker a judge upon the so coafuse him that the opportunicy is lost. Mr. Hewitt of New York has an awkward way of cross- ing aisle and. crossing bis legs, keeps himself from toppling over by touching the desks on either side wih his hands. Frank Hurd likes the middle of an aisle ben speaking, and it is doubtful if he could nue a really first-rate speech from behind a desk. He has been ACCUSTOMED TO STANDING in an ope: space in the court-room and couldn't feel at home penned up behind a desk.

The report of the Fish Commissioner, just out, has quit? a boom for the sea serpent. It gives a commusication on the subject, by Richard J. Proce- tor, dattd London, 1884, in whieh he reviews some of the recent reports of sea monsters of various sorts, ad closes by saying: “The evidence now ob- tained fonfirms the theory | since cenfirmed by Gosse and Others, that a race ropulsive power from paddies; in other words, a —— re — — — the jong necked Plesio- | saurians dt the great secondary or Mesozoic era. | Creatures of this class have been aptly compared to what =e be formed by 1 ga a serpent through the body of a sea turtle.“ The account which brings out this statement by him is one & a curious marine animal seen near Panama recentiy, by a whale boat.

Littleman of Allerton, Mo. painter and costumer in town had been employed since the fire on the properties of the new play, “Mcallister’s Legacy.“ As there was no third tier the boys who usually throng it like bees swarming on a hoop were absent, : Dave Braham took his seat above the orchestra. He had hardly made his appearance before the words “One, two, three“ were heard, and the dele- gation from the Seventh Regiment sbouted in chorus: now Ann, rov. DAVE BRAHAM?” The enthusiasm extended down through the overture, and wound up with roof- shaking applause for the xylophone men. The cur- tain 1 wn as the parlor of a modern tene. ment in Nicholas avenue, and with a black smith shop in full blast. Harrigan took the part of an irish horse- shoe dealer and Hart that of Molly McGoldrick, his unmarried sister. As Harri entered and remov- ed along linen duster revealing a makeup recalling that of Major Gilfeather, the theater resounded with ap The words “one, two. three“ were again heard, and the chorus came in strong, “BOW ARE YOU NED HARRIGAN?” The artist bowed and came tothe front in re sponse to cries for a speech. He said: “I thank you. I scarcely know what to a I find lam tuned up to A sharp this evening. The burning of our beautiful theater on Br way was unfortunate, but we were certainly fortunate in securing another. I will leave it to your judg- ment as to whether the manuscript of the play should have been burned with the theater or be handed down to future generations. Again. thank- ing you for yonr kind sympathy, with your permis- sion, Tu now ‘curl’ up into Dr. McAllister. Mr. Harrigan began the delivery of the speech in a pure American accent, but before its close he unwittingly sank himself in his charatter, and closed in a sweet Irish brogue. Five minutes after- ward Tony Hart came on the stage in the mob-cap of a genuine Irish woman. He carried a hoe, and had hardly opened his mouth before the familiar “One, two, three” rang over the theater once more, and a chorused volume of “HOW ARE YOU, HART?” aroused the enthusiasm anew. He responded to cries for a speech as follows: “There is too much effervescence here this evening for me to express myself, I am only too glad to know that we have not been compelled to leave New York. and all the kind friends who are greeting us here this evening.“ Tony had hardly got warmed in his part before Mrs. Annie Yeamen appeared in one of the high- toned Celtic characters that have made her fam- ous. One, tw, three, again roared over the aud- itorium in a stentorian voice. The boys of the Sev- enth responded: “MRS. YEAMEN, WE GREET You.” Then Johnny Wild entered in the character of a ne- gro coachman. He had hardly shown the vacancy in his front teeth before the Seventh Regiment, aft- er the usual numerical alarm, respond- ed: “Johnny Wild, oh, my! The comedian tried to avoid a speech, but was ruthlessly forced to the front. He said: „Ladies and gentlemen, I sincerely thank you for this cordial greeting. I declare I don't know what to say, except that I am still in the business. I have lost many of my old friends, Primrose and Lemons for instance, but I am finding new ones that I hope will please you.” Mrs. Yeamen made a natural but laughable mis- take as the applause subsided. Wild was supposed to be her coachuian and to have overturned her car- riage before she entered the parior. She was act- ing the part of July Showers. “‘Now Lemons,” said Mrs. Yeamen, as he turned to her, at the conclusion of his speech, Wwhat's the cause of this accident?” Everybody laughed, Harrigan and Hart right beart- ily. A few minutes afterward M. M. Bradigy, whose remarkable impersonation of a coun member of the New York Legisiature in Investi- gation,” stamps him a genuine American actor, came on the stage. The numerical cry was again heard, and the chorus, “BRADLEY, AH THERE!” drawlea out in a peculiar accent, excited great mer- riment. Harrigan, Hart, Wild, Bradieyand Mrs. Yeamen were the ouly ones thus hoaoréd by the boys of the Seventh Regiment. There were three songs in the first act. Pat and his Little Browu Mare, “Blow the Bellows, Blow,” and Mr. Dooley’s Geese.” The first is a taking melody, the second fully as good as anything Bra- ham has written, and more unique than any “Full Moon.“ The noise and actions of the geese are carried out by the actors, and last night the crowing of the roosters and the quacking of the ducks were reechoed from under the many of the members of the Seventh Regiment sounding a response from reeds resembiing Pike County turkey calis. One remark of Harrigan's touching his horse medicine brought down the | audience. “A spoonful of that,“ said he. pickingy up his bottle, “putintoa car horse would make | Bonner buy him fora trotter.“ Between the urs: and second acts, Counselor Abe Hume! appeared before the curtain. in a dress suit, staggering under the weight of a violin box. At first he was taken for one of the curiosities left behind bv the museum that preceded the company, but as he unrolieda manuscript and began to talk to Dave Braham, the audience manifested a deep interest. He said that ou behalf of nuner- ous friends he would present Mr. Brabam with A GENUINE GUARNERINS VIOLIN, The violin was born in Cremonia in 160, and bears, | the inscription: “Andreas Guarnerins, Fecit Cre- mona, sub Tietulo Sancte teres.“ Three cheers | were then given for Dave Braham, who bad lost a 900-year-ol fiddie in the Theatre Comique fire. The delegation from the Seventh closed the chorus | with “SS Boom-ah,” three times repeated. Dave | placed the box at bis feet but made no response. The second act dragged, but was enlivened by a magnificent negro song waltz and jig time. ‘Lhe last act was devoted tothe Stock Exchange. Ex- cited, uproarious laughter greeted Johnny Mud and his partners as they got caughton “New Tennes- see,” and had a lively time. After the curtain fell, the Seventh Regiment delegation went behind the curtain and speeches and compliments were drowned in a flood of champagne. The play has no relation to the “Mulligan, Guard,” and touches topics entirely new. It is funny and bright, and will undoubtedly run as long as auy of us predecessors.
