August 7.—Large numbers of people filled the corridors of the Fifth Avenue Hotei yes- terday and turned the pages of the hotel register to view the signatures of the prominent men there registered. During the evening the numbers in- creased. and as well-known public men appeared about the office they were surrounded by knots of curious visitors. When ex-Presidents Arthur and Hayes descended the staircase, and were joined by Gen. Phil. Sheridan and Senator John A. Logan, a crowd followed them about until they were com- pelled to retire to a private parior. COL. GRANT BESIEGED BY VISITORS. Ever since the arrival of the Grant family Col. Fred Grant has been besieged by hundreds of visit-. | Ors, Thete-has hardly been a moment that he has not received cards from old army men and friends of his father. He has, however, seen only his inti- mate friends and those officially connected with the funeral exercises. He has had no interviews with newspaper meu, but. the Post-DispaTcH oe ent learned from Henry Clews, who is an intimate friend of the Grant family, their future plans. The family will return to Mt. McGregor immediately after the funeral and remain there until October. They will then occupy their household on East Sixty-sixth street. rs. Sartoris will return to gland. where she will stay until spring. She then intends to return to this country and spend a year with Mrs, Grant. U. 8. Grant, jr., will go back to his farm and ho before long to renew his law ractice in New York. Col. Fred Grant expects to occupied for some time in arranging his father’s affairs. There are a great many matters which will uire his attention and will take until fall to settle. ol. Grant then intends to devote himself to railroad interests ana thinks that he will settle in the West. He says positively that he will not enter the army again under any circum- stances. It is understood that he has had offers of a position in the army if he will accept. Mrs. Grant is at Mt. McGregor and will not attend the funeral here. She at first hoped to accompany the remains of her husband to Albany and thence to.their final resting place in New York. But she is much PROSTRATED, BOTH MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY. She has hardly been able to leave her room at the Drexel cot and is far too weak to endure the journey to New York. Mrs. Grant from the first firmly believed that ber husband would recover. Each time he rallied she was the more confirmed in her hopes. When he was prostrated the last time, she believed tuat he would rally again as before. So, although every other member of the family was hourly looking for the General's death, Mrs. Grant was whoily -unprepared. 0 shock was, therefore, notwithstanding his long ill - ness, a blow. The family advise a change of sur- roundings for their moyher, but she cannot be in- duced to leave Mt. McGregor, unless for New York. They have therefore decided to remain with her until she returns to her old house in this city. Mrs. Grantintends to live here, where her husband is buried , for the rest of her life. She is now accom- panied at Mt. McGregor by her two sisters and a sister of Gen. Grant. The family do not look for any serious results from her prostration, as Mrs. Grant, is a person of great physical strength. The room which has been ved for Mrs. Grant at the hotel was last night The Grant family occuny a ments on tion, and have not left their rooms since their arrival. Every room in the Fifth Avenue has been engaged. The hotel is entirely filled by dignitaries connected with the funeral exerc The Senatorial Commit ee arrived late last ‘nieht, aud announced that Presi- dent Cleveland would come to-day. The Governors and staffs of five States will arrive during the day, with delegations from the various Legislatures. ral prominent Western men, who have an- n their intention to be present at Gen. Grant's funeral, expected to come to-night. _ — mn GRANT'S OLD CHARGEK, reser given up. The Horse the General Rode all Through the Civil War. The horse that Gen.

John- stoa, who is to officiate as one of the pall-bearers at Gen Grant’s funeral, will arrive in New York to- night. On learning of his selection as pall-bearer, Geo, Johnston, who was in Portland, Oregon, toqx the first train for the East, and his stop in this city was very brief. He is reported to-day as having said while here: “The first time I ever saw Gen. Graat was during the Mexican war. He was a lieu- tenant then, and of course no one saw in him the great general which he proved tobe. I know the Southern people feel kindly, and have always feit kindly, toward Gen. Grant. They never forgot his kin@ness—the promptings of a good heart—in mak- ing the favorable conditions to Gen. Lee at the time of hig Surrender. I don't speak from official infor- : but it was generally believed in the South that Mr. Johnson, then President, determined to make an example of some of the Southern generals. Gen. Lee was selected by him as one of the men to be sacrificed. Gen. Grant resisted such a proceeding. He said the Nation's honor was at stake, and by the conditions of the surrender Gen. Lee could not be sacrificed. In short, Gen. Grant stood in the way of Johnson's scheme, and saved many Confederates from death. The Southern people remembered that. They know he had a soldier’s heart, and they respected him living and honored him dead.” x — , General Tolling 6f Church Bells. New Yorn, August 7.—A number of churches : the country have signified their inten- tion ng their bells when the funeral cortege leaves the City Hall to-morrow, and again when it. arrives at Riverside Park. In order that they may be promptly notified, the Western Union Telegraph Company has arranged to announce over the wires throughout the country thetime of starting of the funeral procession from the City Hall to-morrow morning and the final moment of deposit of the re- mains of General Grant in the tomb. A TRIPLE HANGING. Three Brutal Murderers Pay the Penalty of Their Crimes. Faverrrvnas. N. C., August 7.—Following are the histories of the crimes for which J. O. Howard, Thomas Gee and Thomas McNeill were to be hanged here to-day: One night last summer the wife of E. C. Blackman, a farmer living on the east side of Cape Fear River, found her husband in his barn dead with his throat cut. J. O. Howard, a shiftiess fel- low, had sold to Blackman a piece of land on which the latter still owed a small balance. On the day of the homicide Biackman went to Howard's house. paid the note,and the two men went away to gether. They were in company the greater part of the day at Blackman's house. e two made 5 visits to the barn and drank freely of Blackman's wine. Later in the evening perzons ing alone the road heard the men quarreling n the At bedtime Blackman's wife, becom- ing uneasy at his prolon absence, went to the barn and found him murdered.

The President Decides to Stand by che Minister to Austria. _ — n The Chicago Federal Offices—Secre- tary Whitney Cancels Several of John Roach’s Contracts—Missouri Postmasters Commissioned — News From Washington. By Telegraph te the Post-Dispatch. Wasuineton, D. C., August 7.—The indications are that the United States will remain unrepre- sented at the court of Austria unless the latter Government withdraws its objections to Minister Keiley. The President and Cabinet discussed the question yesterday, and it was the unanimous sentiment that this Government would stand by its minister and not heed foreign interference in its affairs. Minister Keiley, meanwhile, is enjoying himself at Paris. and has not yet presented his credentials to the Austrian Government. Secretary Bayard states that, while he does not want to ap- ‘| pear obstinate, he considers that the United States ‘| will be as ably represented by Minister Keiley as anybody else, and hence he will not consent to his recall. Some of Minister Keiley’s friends in Virginia have advised him to resign, and thus end the controversy, but the President and Secretary Bayard desire him to stay. and he will probably conform to their wishes. One of Roach’s Contracts Forfeited. Wasnmoerox, August 7.—Secretary Whitney yes- terday sent the following letter to Mr. John Roach and his assignees and sureties on the contract for the Chicago: By the seventh clause of your con- tract with the United States dated July 26, 1883, for the construction of one steel cruiser of about 4.500 tons displacement, it was agreed that the hull, machinery and * of such vessel should be completed and ready for inspection for the purpose of deliveryon or before the expiration of eighteen months from the of the contract. It was further provided in the eleventh clause that, in case of the failure or omission of the contractor at any stage of the work prior to final completion, from any cause other than the order of the Secretary of the Navy, to go forward with the work and make satisfactory progress to- wards its completion, it should be optional with the Secretary to declare the contract forfeited. More than six months have now ela since expiration of the imit thus and the work upon the vessel has been stopped, while much remains to be done before she can be finally completed. At the same time it is evident that the public interest requires the vessel in question, known as the Chicago, to be completed with all practicable speed, and it has, therefore, necessary for the depart- ment to take immediate and definite action looking to that end, der the circumstances and in consequence of the failure of the to proceed with the work, I have to inform you that the contract above referred to is hereby declared to be forfeited on the —— of the contractor, and that the rights of the United States under the con- tract, and especially under the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth clauses are now operative. You are further informed that it is the intention of the department, after the inventory and appraisement shall have been had, to take steps for the prosecution of the work and the com- pletion of the said vessel in accordance with the conditions expressed in the contract and that in tue — the chief — n L engineerin construction and repairing Department will take charge of the vessel, machin- i and fittings. Similar letters also , to the Atlanta and the Boston, and an order was issued to the chiefs of to take charge of the work. In issuing the order Secretary Whitney says: “The order issued to-day with reference to the Boston, Atlanta and Chicago is made in pursuance of my duties under the eleventn clause of the contract. Under that section there is to follow an inventory, show ing to what point of completion the vessels have come and what material is „ on hand in the contractors’ yard which bas been provided for the ships, and how far the work has progressed,‘to be followed by a valuation of those things. There is then a provision that the department shall decide whether to complete the ships. As the matter now stands there is no question of my duty to go on and do this, and it works an incidental benefit of course to the contractor and to his employes. The Government steps into the yard, takes posses- sion af the ships, plant. etc., pays for the comple- tion, and then has an accounting with the contrac- tor at the end, and if there is any profit the con- tractor has it, andif there is any loss he pays it. Under these circunistances it is entirely fit er the heads of bureaus having the supervision of the work to use the contractors force and his plant for the purpose.” The Chicago Offices, By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. WasuHinoton, D. C., August 7. — Representative Ward of Illinois has been in the city for severa days, endeavoring to have the appointment of a Democratic Collector of Internal. Revenue for the Chicago District carried through before the Presi- dent takes his holiday, but the President has de- cided that he cannot examie all the papers in the case and select between the applicants until he returns tothe White House in September. Ap- oiutments of Collector of the Port, Appraiser and nited States District Attorney for Chicago will robablx be made at the same time. he large number of subordinate offices command ed by the Collector of Internal Revenue and wanted by good, competent Democrats is the principal reason for the desire to have changes made as early as ble. But Mr. Ward is per- fuctiy satisfied with the progress that the President is making in distributing the appointments, He re- gards Mr. Cleveland as the wisest of administrators avd best of Democrats. The only thing that sur- prises him about the appointments is that the President has aiready got throughso much work with 80 few mistakes. The people of Chicago, he says, take the same view. the Missouri Postmasters Commissioned. Wasuinetron, D.

The New Programme of the Irish Party Foreshadowed. Why Gladstone Gave Up His Contem- plated Trip to America—Chamber- lain’s Speeches at Hull—The Russo- „Afghan Trouble—The Cholera in Spain. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Lonpon, August 7.—America has only just missed a visit from Mr. Gladstone. I have ascertained the following facts: A few weeks ago he was looking about for some place to spend the holidays out of reach of English politics. A long sea voyage was recommended and he thought of America. All his old desire to visit it returned strongly, He was on the point of deciding to go, but, as his voice did not improve, he feared he would be unable to visit the States without public speaking. Speaking was impossible, soon the ad- vice of friends, against his own inclination, he de- cided on a cruise to Norway in Brassey's yacht He sails to-morrow afternoon. If, for any reason, he should not be tied down by politics in the imme- diate future, I believe he could be induced to make an American trip. At any rate, I know that he was very enthusiastic the other day about the project, and relinquished it witk great reluctance. He will make no political engagemeats till after his return from Norway. A BANQUET TO PARNELL. A banquet will be given Parnell in Dublin probably on the 17th, by the members of the Irish party. It has two objects. The close of the present session of Parliament marks the dissolution of the party which conducted a bitter fight for Ire- land, and now the new rallying of its forces is necessary. The banquet will be the recognition by the party of Parneil’s success and afford him an opportunity to announce his plan of the electoral — 1 5 n an important political manifesto, I heard also that a new campaign among the Iriah in America will shortly be begun. THE. FIRST GUNS ef the coming struggle were fired by Chamberlain. at Hull in his speeches on Wednesday and Thurs- day evenings. They have excited great interest every where and real enthusiasm among the Radi- cals. The address Wednesday night was acare- fully prepared and long expected manifesto. It declared for lecal government, graduated taxation, reform of the land laws and free education. On the last subject he was clearer than ever before, saying: “I hope one of the first acts of the new Parliament will be to see that education suited to the capacities of every child shall be conferred free upon all for the benefit of all, at the cost of all. About taxation he said: I have been criticised for saying that the rich pay too littie and the poor too much. I have given the matter further consideration, and I maintain the state- ment.” Replying to charges against him, ne said: “I do not want you to think that I suggest to you that legislation alone can accomplish all we desire. Above all Iwould not lead you into wild and revolutionary projects which would upset the unnecessarily existing order of things, but, on the other hand, I want you not to accept as final or as perfect the existing arrangements under which hundreds of thousands, nay miliions, of your fellow countrymen are subjected to untold privations and misery, with evidence all around them of accumu- lated wealth and unexampled luxury. The whole speech was received with loud cheers. The papers, to discredit him, say that he has now nailed the flag of socialism to the mast. Parliament will rige next Wednesday or Thursday. The Russo-Afgham Troubles. FORTIFYING HERAT. Lowpow, August 7.— Dispatches sent from Meshed in Persia, near; the Afghan frontier, say that the British officers in Herat are well treated by the in- habitants and that their health is excellent, despite the torrid weather prevailing there. Thework of fortifying Herat against a possible Russian advance is making rapid progress. The Ameer is preparing another large force of Afghan troops for the pre- tection of Herat. The Ameer's son will be placed in nominal command of these troops. . S€XCITED AGAINST THE RUSSIANS. The same dispatches says the Turkomans of Merv are greatly excited against the Russian soldiery, because of their alieged brutal conduct toward the native women. UNCONFIRMED REPORTS. The Journal de St. Petersburg says the reports of the concentration of Afghan troops in the vicinity of Penjdeh and dispatch thither of more Russian soldiers are unconfirmed. .

66 * A NOBLE WARRIOR Ool. Isaac Stewart’s Reminiscences of the Old Commander. — — ee Grant Nota Drinking Man—An Epi- sode of the Siege of Vicksburg—The Independent, Self-Reliant Man — Grant’s Clear, Military Mind—The Capture of Richmond. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New Tonk, August 7.—Among the many men who braved the danger and shared in the victories of war side by side with Gen, Grant was Col. Isaac Stewart of Washington. He was with Grant dur- ing the days when the Commander was opening up the Mississippi and entered Richmond almost on his beels. The Colonel sat in his room in the Astor House yesterday conversing with Grand Army men and fighting his battles over and overagain. Col. Stewart looks very much as Gen. Grant did half a dozen yearsago. He has the same sharp eyes and short, thick iron gray beard of the dead com- mander, and his frame resembles that of the Gen- eral a few years ago. The Colonel has a soldier's admiration for his dead commander, and firmly be- lieves that when death came to Mt. McGregor it carried off one of the most brilliant military men the world has ever seen. There has been,” said the Colonel, “no little amount of talk attempting to prove that Gen. Grant wasa drinking man. I know he wasn't. Of course, he might take a glass, just as you and I would, but he was not by any means a man addicted to drink. I only saw him take one glass of Whisky during the war. But that glass, well it wasawhopper. I think it was on the night of February 23, 1863, down at Vicksburg. We were all pretty tired and sat in the cabin of the River steamer, the Magnolia, waiting for the morning. My state-room was next to the General's and I was thinking of turning in when the General said to McPherson; ‘See bere, before we go to bed, let us havea night cap. Stewart has got some prime old Crow whisky around here, somewhere.’ I went to my state-room and brought out the bottle. The zeneral filled a goblet, not a little one, but a.good big gobiet, to the brim with that old Crow * and he it off. It was A WHOPPING BIG DRINK, and the only one I ever saw the General take during all the years I was with him. If Gen. Grant did drink 1 certainly never knew it. He was always calm, quiet and self- whether in the heat of conflict or after the battle. He was not a soldier fuli of strange oaths. I never heard him use a profane word in my life. There was another episode in the siege of Vicksburg” said the Colonel leaning back in his chair. Perhaps you will recall the adverse criticism that we heaped upon Gen. Grant when he was digging the big trench before the city. Every one said, What in the earth js he going to do with that trench? What use 1 it?’ No one knew, and finally one of the officers went to the General and asked why he was digging the trench, Do you think,’ one of the 0 rs asked, ‘you are going todo much good with that tronen!“ ‘I have done it,’ General Grant replied, and at the same time gave orders that the trench shouid be filied up. Bless your soul, he was only keeping his men at work so their joints would not stiffen ip the tents, and they would go upon tue fleid hardened soldiers and not weak from lassitude. You all know there was another who wished to supersede Grant in command of the Army of Yennessee, and it was he who gave birth to the criticism. One of the General's friends said, you shouid get that man out of the army, ne will ride over you.’ Gen, Grant repiied: ‘My dear sir, wnoen 1 determined to enter the army, I dia so with tue determination todo all I could to put down the rebeilion. It is a secondary con- sideration in my mind who commands the troops, so long as tue great end is accomplished. Col. Stewart looked for a while out of the window be- fore he spoke again, and then he said briskiy: “The assertions that Gen, Grant was not self re- liant are the veriest kind of romance. There NEVER WAS A MORE INDEPENDENT MAN than the General. I recall uon a joke he told me once, and thought it was a good story, but it strikes me that it proves the kind of man he was. One day, long before he was known a dozen miles from his home, he had occa- sion to borrow a harrow from a neigubor. Before he had finished using it the neighbor said he must have it in a very shorttime. The General saw that something must be done in order to sow and har- row in tae required grain, He took a sack of seed across his back and jumped upon the horse, throw- ing the seed before the horse as it walked and har- rowing it as the animal pr Certainly the man who would think of such an unique way to do his work is a man of resource. He was an active, brainy man. say what you will, and a hard worker. I recollect night after night when we would be all asleep, the General would be sitting by his lamp with his maps before him and his head full of marches and batties. A great many ple have said that be was lazy, while we who were on the field when the war was going on knew he was one of the most undefatigabie workers in tne army. Speaking of thestories taat Grant was made bycircumstances and that ne was real ypushed into Richmond, Col. Stewart said: “los.ow you how clear a mflitary mimd he had, and how care- fully and accurately he planned the most minute engagement. so that his whole series of battice stand together like solid blocks, I will just teil you of A LITTLE SKIRMISH ON CHAMPION HILL. There was a bridge at the Champion His and the Union forces needed it for transportation p Gen. Grant called Eugene Carr to his side and said: ‘You will leave here; get to Champion Hills by the morning and attack Pemberion, not savagely, but carefully. Before toe skirmish is half over Mc Pherson will have had time to‘come to your assist- ance, and together you can route Pemberton.’ This was to prevent the rebel leader from fortifying himself. worked like a charm. Carr cr over to Pemberton, attacked him, and in the middle ot the conflict McPhersou came down with his men. Champion was won, just as Grant had said, and just as though Pemberton knew Grant's plans, and wanted to heip hiui mature them. The Gen- eral made the circumstances before they made him. This was the way all the little skirmishes that — — a of his victories — an ought, suppose one thing that helped the General more than another was his wonderfully retentive memory 4 and here the Colonel had another anecdote. “It was uke this: I was pay master and had just — the Sixth New York Artillery at City Point, and nad been given two months“ ieave to go East.

Ware Tells Why Dr. Tom Ed- S Attack of the Ironton Herald. . Last week the Herald of Ironton, Mo., published a vicious editorial attacking the St. Louis Light Cavalry Troop ina shameful manner, insinuating that its members were not gentlemanly in their demeanor while encamped at Ironton and refiect- ing seriously upon the good name of the company. This morning a local daily printed a card at the pry ew of W. O. Patton, M. D, and Henry J. Smith of ton, reiterating in general terms the state- ments contained in the editorial.

Dr. Rumbold said that Edwards was not his friend, but only a college acquaintance whom he did not recognize at first. A SUN SCOURGE, Indications that the Roasting Period is Not Over Yet. Another hot wave seems about ready to breath its fiery breath upon this sun scourged city. There were indications of such a thing last night in the vast quantity of electricity that was lying around and that made itself seen in frequent flashes. Long banka of low lying clouds arose onthe northern horizon, flashed fire a few hours and then dis- appeared, leaving the air heavy. When the sun rose this morning notacloud was to be seen, and for several hours the sun blazed down fiercely. Had it not been for the fairly coo! breeze that came from the southwest the information | would have been obtained sooner than it was that the days of sun umbrellas, shirtsleeves and sweat- soaked handkerchiefs had not away. By noon, however, that fact had got hold of the aver- age citizen and the actions of the scorching days of a week were being repeated. ow and then a citizen stopped as of yore and gave a thermometer a witheri lance and passed on; the lemonade fiend redoub cries, and the street sprinkler kept up an all most constant running back and forth. The pave- ments by 2 p. m. had taken on that blistering look that is so painful so the eyes, and waves of heat ascended with that regularity that isso typical of a hot wave.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 7, 1885. — State AUDITOR WALKER and State Senator GUNN stick to their statement about the lost year,” in railroad assessment. WHEN the Post-DISPATCH says that the pri- vate watchmen will wear uniforms it speaks by the card. When the Republican says that the private watchmen will not wear uniforms it lies—under a misapprehension. The Post- DisPatcH is the young reliable in modern journalism. PLENTY of exercise in the open air has kept the Empress of Austria-Hungary so good-look- ing that the aged Kaiser WILHELM could not refrain from embracing her three times within the first few minutes after he met her at Gas- tein. As FRANCIS JOSEPH.is with her and BISMARCK is watching over the old man, there will probably be no elopement. SS THERE is good ground for expecting further trouble as long as cattle companies continue in the Indian Territory. Indians are liable to be- come hungry at times, especially when they rely on Indian agents and Government beef contractors for food, and hungry Indians are mighty apt to find something to eat when they see the white man’s cattle grazing all around them. As the Grant funeral procession in New York will start at 10 a, m, to-morrow, the cere- monies at the tomb should begin by 2 p. m. New York time, or 1 p. m. St. Louis time. This will give the Post-DIsPATCH an ample margin of time for a full and detailed account of this most interesting ceremony, and no one need expect to find anything additional reported in the Sunday morning papers. Wx are sorry that Private Watchman FonnxsG, the complete letter wititer of the force, will be compelled to don the helmet of subjection and the blue flannel of hümiliation. But as Mr. Forges has been twiee utilized as a target by his employers under the suspicion that he was spirits; may be the means of saving a life which is justly dear to his friends and valuable to his employers as the embodiment of a “‘lost cause.” KEILFY is again brought into notice, this ‘time by the report that Austria has finally notified our Government that it will not be pleasant to have himat Vienna. Wedo not see, however, that this notice need produce any change in the situation. KEILEY can remain in Paris, where he has been staying ever since be went abroad as Minister to Austria. He can spend the salary there as pleasantly as in Vienna, and at the latter place there is posi- tively nothing for him to do which cannot be done as well or better by a Secretary of Lega- tion acting as Charge d’ Affaires. Tur cut of the catafalque in yesterday's Post-DISPATCH was something more than a triumph of art. It wasatriumph of journal- ism. There had been a long debate in the committee as to how the scenic structure of Mr. Pavst should be given to inspection, and to avoid any jealousy or conflict between the enterprising morning and evening journalism of the city, it was decided that no human eye, unless it was the eye of one of the workmen, should see it until it was drawn out on parade. But in the night our artistic Asmodeus evaded the vigilance of the private watchman, lifted the roof of the building, and got a view of the catafalque of which our readers got the benefit. —— — — ET —„-—ö.ũꝶ A CORRESPONDENT calls attention to a feature of the awning law which makes ita hardship; this is that the awning season is nearly over, and the cost of new awnings at this time of the year would be a loss of money to those compelled to buy them. We believe action in the matter has been already stayed. If it has not it might be very properly. But it is also proper to remark that the awning ordinance is a just, sensible and reasonable one. The neglect of previous Police Boards to look to its enforcement does not render it less valid. The sidewalks belong to the people, not to the tenant of abutting property, and any one who lets an awning hang so low as to interfere with the comfort and convenience of passers | by is, to that extent, a nuisance. If the Illegal awnings are allowed to run out their brief career of obstruction this summer, it should be with the distinct understanding that the viola- tion of the ordinance is not to be repeated. nf From the time ne entered Jefferson City as State Auditor to this day, an idea has been somehow spread abroad and sedulously miain- - tained . got the provisions of the constitution in regard to railroads enforced by appropriate and ef- '} fective legislation. He has been credited with a willingness to have the assessmentof railroad property raised. That he opposed the jug- gling tricks by which the railroads escaped assessment and taxation for 1881, has been generally taken for granted. But we have never. been able to discover any substantial foundation for these notions. His management of the Granger element in conven- tions and Legislatures has brought forth the very results the railroad attorneys were aiming at. If he was dissatisfied with the skipping of 1881 in railroad taxation, he was very eare- ful to hide his grief in his own bosom. If te has ever made a fuss about the matter, it was in private letters and not done officially. According to a Pike County paper he had written such letters, and this may explain how he keeps up his reputation as the Farmer Statesman. But we submit that a few words in his official report, or a published letter or two relating to matters in which he is officially concerned as Auditor and as a mem- ber of the State Board of Equalization, seem necessary to identify him fully with the oppo- sition to Mr. GovuLp’s management of Mis- souri affairs. THE NEW LESSON, The gentlemen from Kansas City who went to Washington to teach the President how to deal with the Indian lease question are reported as saying on leaving Washington. We ar- rived at 1:80 p. m., and five hours later were en route homeward with nothing accomplished. What in the world did we leave for anyway?” They accomplished a great deal. They played a part in a great spectacle. They furnished an instructive lesson to the world, and one which should have been instructive to them. The scene in which they played the part of chorus deserves to be perpetuated in art and story. It hath a value for all future times. These gentlemen proved by their failure, and in their failure had proof beyond question, that the new age, long expected, has come at last. Their discomfiture shows that the people have elected a President who is a President of the people; that in this country the laws which all have a share in making are binding on all: that in a land where allied and organized wealth is rising to proportions unknown in ancient or modern times, the money kings and the cattle barons, with their princely domains, their swelling figures, their countless herds, their power, their alliances and resources, all stand before the plain, simple, Democratic executive of this country, on the same honest level of fairness and justice and obedience to the law as the poorest citizen. Was not such a lesson worth going from Kan- sas City to Washington to learn? NO MONEY STOLEN, There is something refreshing in the testi- mony given by Mr. CoLtonna of the Geodetic and Coast Survey, in which, after admitting all the short-comings, delinquencies and failures of the Bureau, he closes by laying his manly hand upon his patriotic heart and claiming that no money was ever directly stolen. No, there was no money stolen. The Director took pay for work which he never performed, but this was not stealing. He was drunk to helplessness on Government money when he should have been attending to the discipline of his office, but that was not stealing. The chief engraver, whose salary was $300 a month, was a boy, so stupid that he did not know he was used as a tool, and that others drew his salary, but this was not stealing. Surveyors and calcu- lators wore five hundred dollar chronometers to measure the time it would take the chief to sober up, but this was not stealing. Costly instruments of accurate scientific research were bought with Government money, among them the British standards of weight and measure; the standard quart was used as a paste- cup; the standard yard kept the door open; this was not stealing. Dead men’s names were kept on the pay rolls, and their salaries duly drawn by their surviving friends, asa sad memorial of the dear departed, but this was not stealing. It would be highly interesting to get from the Coast Survey an official opinion as to what would be stealing. — — A COMPILATION of the sums given by our Government to the Pacific Mail Steamship Company foots up $5,000,000, or enough to pay for more than half of the twenty-one steamers owned by the company. is was sheer subsi- dy, over and above payment for mail service, and the money was votea to extend and encour- age American commerce, What use did the company make of it? Large amounts were in- vested in the corruption of the American Con- gress to procure larger subsidies. For black- mail payments to the amount of a million dol- lars a year, the company went into a pooling arrangement with the Pacific roads to maintain through rates, a combination in restraint of trade, and by which the people’s commerce was unlawfully taxed for the private emolument of jobbers in watered stocks. The Pacific Mail steamship line was run in the interest of a and as a partnership annex thereto, to fight and shut out from Sen Francisco ocean lines that might compete with the rail - roads. And now this subsidized concern, the property of GouLp and HunrTineron, has not only refused to carry the mails when offered rates iar exceeding those paid by any other Government for similar service—rates far more profitable than it ever obtained for any other service—but it has used all its power to draw or drive other steamship lines, American and foreign, into a combination to deprive our Post Office Department of ocean mail service, and thus compel Mr. VAS to “divvy” all of the half million subsidy appropriation placed under his discretion by a vote of the last Congress: This behavior shonld teach Con- gress a lesson and eee moro bau- transcontinental railway monopoly, — ne nn | Wr are not inclined to deny that Mr. Bar- AED wandered a little from the strict line of propriety in selling an opinion as to the legal | validity of the Maxwell land grant while he wasamember of the Private Land Claims Committee. But we submit that the following studied perversion of his relation to the case by the New York Tribune is an outrage: Mr. Lamar, through Mr. Sparks, denounces the grant asa fraud. It is left for Mr. Bayard to . tablish the correctness of the opinion he gave to induce foreigners to buy the grant or be set down as a lawyer for revenue only. As the head of the State Department, no higher duty of foreign rela~ tions will come to him than to protect the innocent foreigners who were induced to buy this property on his legal representation. If Mr. Lamar makes a fight—well, that may mean a Cabinet crisis. But it is not for Republicans to bother over such a situa- tion. This is a Democratic controversy. Bayard apd Barlow vs. Lamar and Sparks. The Maxwell land grant was valid, was never denounced by Mr. Lamar as a fraud, and to this day nobody disputes the opinion Mr. Bayarp gave. It did not vouch for any- thing but the validity of the rights vested by the original grant. The swindle was alto- gether in the subsequent survey, by which Srzve ELxINSs and his brother managed to get patents fraudulently issued for 2,650,000 acres of land instead of the small tract called for by the grant. It is to have these patents annulled, and not the original grant, that the Govern- ment’s suit is pending. It was these frandu- lently obtained patents that swindled the inno- cent foreigners, and while the Tyribune's own ELxirs is the reputed engineer of that swin- dle, there is no ground for charging that BAYARD was a party to it or that he has ever opposed a full investigation and rectification of the survey and patents. The fact that Mr. BAYARD has maintained friendly relations and gone into business enterprises with the Repub- licans who used his signature in connection with such a fraud is the only thing that casts a shadow upon him. Perhaps he may yet make them and their organs sick of representing him as interested in protecting the perpetrators of so infamous a swindle. We have been shown a letter from State Auditor John Walker, under date of August 8, wherein he states that he is still of the opinion that there is an omission of one year in the assessment of raltroad property of the State. This ought to be good evi- dence.— [Louisiana Journal. It is not only good evidence, but it is a good item of news. Publish the letter. Tell the truth. More Land Grabbing. From the Indianapolis Journal. Since the appointment ot George W. Julian to the Surveyor-Generalship of New Mexico, one Ezra Hayes, of Lawrenceburg, it is said, bas taken an extravagant interest in the old gentieman'g affairs. The Surveyor-General’s office can furnish valuable information as to choice lands in New Mexico, being a promising locality for capital in certain lines, par- ticularly stock raising, Mr. Julian's official 8 ance has grown apace. There 18 4 syndicate Eliah capitalists, with American 2 earnestly devoted to the improvement of the Terri- tory, with the assistance of Mr. Julian as Surveyor- General. This syndicate's affairs sre said to be ‘managed by Mr. Gardner, of Hoyt, Gardner & Co., New York bankers, and among its possessions are 400,000 acres of land in New Mexico and 40,000 head of cattle on the Oklahoma range. The cattle are supposed to be the property of a man named Thompson, who, to hold them in that section of the country, married a half-breed, and thus had awarded him certain Indian rights. But the Gov- ernment having decided that all cattle of white men must get out of Oklohoma, the syndicate is looking after an increase of lands and a larger development of their cattle interests in New Mexico, The best lands there are to be taken up by wholesale, and this can only be done through information derived from the Surveyor-General's office of that Terri- tory. A man named Duvall, of Columbus, Ohio, a nephew of Huntington, of the Texas Pacific, and Nimrod Lancaster, of Chicago, are interested in the scheme. Lancaster is in New Mexico, and Ezra Hayes, whose influence Mr. Julian, it is said, can not resist, is attending to the interests of the’ enter- prise in this State. He id traveling up and down the country from the Ohio River to the Mich- gan line, taiking of the greatness of New Mexico. Vagaries of Labor Systems. From the Brooklyn Union. The economic differences between life in an old State and in a newer one are shown by the compar- ative statistics of labor and wagesin Massachustts and Illinois. Massachusetts, by the census re- port, had only afew more manufacturing estab- lishments than Illinois; yet in the older State there are still nearly twice as many large establishments. In Massachuetts the percentage of women em- ployed is 80. 13. as against 12.16 in Illiacis; and the total number of women and children employed in the Eastern State is nearly twice as great as in the Western. In Illinois the average daily earnings is $1 51, and in Massachusetts $1 23. These compar- ative statistics published by the Illinois Bureau of Labor Statistics simply confirm the easily observed differences between younger and older manufac- turing communities; but do they not indicate also that, as the Western States approach the present excellence and extent of the Hastern States in their manufacturing and cut off more and more of the Western market from New England, New England must either have a larger foreign market or must maintain her manufactories by cheaperand cheap- er labor. until the percentage of women and chil- dren among the wage-workers reaches an unnatu- ral and deteriorating extent? The Typical Consul. From the Pall Mall Budget. An Anglo American writes; “I see that the Presi. dent has appointed Mr. Francis Underwood, of Massachusetts, American Consul at Glasgow. This appointment removes Bret Harte from office.

He improved, grew worse, and had all the hope, depression, and despair that marked Grant's iliness. Unlike the American soldier, he did not retain his mental faculties to the last.

Clubb, came up again to-day before Justice O'Connell. It will be remembered that Creveling had Clubb arrested on a peace warrant some weeks ago, and that when the case came up for trial Clubb had left for a European trip, and his bond, which was signed by Geo, A. Madill, was forfeited. The first point brought up was the motion to set aside the forfeiture of the bond on the grounds that Mr. S. E. Clubb was unavoidably called away from the city and his counsel offered to submit the affla vit to Mr. E. C. Newkirk. Mr. Taylor objected to the in- troduction of the affidavit on the gréund that Mr. E. C. Newkirk was in Gourt, having been sub- res. A long argument, and a very lively one. ollowed, in which Messrs. Robert and lor insinuated personal ignorance on each side. The practice of the Circuit Court was cited, and each couusel acc the other of ignorance of the practice of that court. The affidavit was finaliy admitied, though Mr. Taylor held that he had the right toexamine Mr. E. C. Newkirk. The affida- vit states that Mr. S. C. Clubb had to leave the city, being sick, and on account of the sickness of bis child. Affidavits were also submitted from J. B. Miltenberger, I. A. 1 > Hendrick, of similar purport. r. Taylor then proposed to — ti. Newkirk. Mr. Robert objected on th ground that the opposing counsel were endeavor- ing te try the case. The court held that the oppos- ing counsel had the right to examine the witness in the matter contained in the affidavit. Mr. New- kird states that Mr. Ciubb had been suffering from neuralgia, indigestion and dyspepsia, and was in such condition as to be unable to attend to his dutses properly for two weeks before he left the city. Constant N. — rn a bar-tender at Tnird and Olive street, saw Clubb on Sunday, July 19. He did not notice whether er not Clubb was sick, or whether he said he was going away. He stepped in to take a drink. A dispute here arose about this drink. Mr. ‘Taylor seemed to pay par- ticular attention to the drink and was disposed to inquire all bout athe particulars, but was stopped by an objection, Colonel Grif Prather testified to meeting Captain Clubb on July 19, and that he was then in bad health. This concluded the examina- tion. Mr. Taylor then stated that the application rested on the ground that Captain Clubb was only sick and bad no sudden call away. Mr. Taylor grew Twelfth street boulevard. He w pathetic and called Justice O'Conneil’s attention to the fact that he frequently sat and heard cases when he was unwell. He referred feeliugly to the fact that a certificate had not been produced from Dr. Lemoiae, the man above all who could have produced con- jusive evidense of Captain Ciubb’siiiness. Mr. Robert replied quietly that the counsel on the other side had agreed thatif good cause was show sickness particularly specified, they would ree to have the forfeiture of the bond set aside. Robert reviewed the téstimony, laying partic- ular stress on the sickness of the child. Mr. Creveling wanted to make some remarks, and after an objection from Mr. Robert he was allowed to His remarks were so bitter, however, tuat about one minute, Lae motion on Monday next.

General Miles says that if the murder had been committed six weeks ago it would have caused 4 war: Fort? Sort, L T., July 20. My Dran Frrenp—The Indian scouts arrived yes- terday on their way here. They found the body of young Sitting Medicine, a son of Little Robe. The body was found about nine miles from the post. He had been shot through the heart. His horse had been shot also. The horse was saddled and dridled and lay near the murdered man, whose rifle lay under his horse. Apparentiy nothing had been disturbed. The head of the man was some thirty or forty yards from the body. The Indians think that it had been cut off. The body was very much decayed. I hadit brought tothe post for burial. The agent, Capt. Lee, reports that Little Robe will come here as soon as he can. The scouts were rather excited about the matter, but are now quiet. I believe they think he was murdered by white men—cowboys. Ido not think the murder- ers can be discovered, but I will try and find out who did the killing. J. H. Porta. A BOLD LAW BREAKER. Millisnus Luna, a Mexicana Smuggler Capt ured by the United States Authorities. Ex Paso, IIIA. August 7.—The United States authorities yesterday made an important capture near here in the person of Millianus Luna, a famous Mexican smuggier. A deputy marshal captured him just as he was about to cross into Mexico. Luna has smuggled over $100,000 worth of goods into this country, and nearly an equal amount into Mexico. For some reason the Mexican authorities always failed to prosecute him when appre on their side. On learning of Luna's arrest, Con- gressman Pro sineo of Mexico and five leading mer- chants at Paso Del Norte came over and gave $20,- 000 security for Luna's appearance at the next session of the Federal Grand Jury. His relief is the subject of much unfavorable comment. Subscriptions to the Bartholdi Fund.
