An Ex-Cabinet Minister Charged With Selling Influence. M. CHARLES DE LESSEPS LAYING BARE THE.WHOLE MATTER. He Is Promised Immunity for Furnishing Inf rmation—Vigorous Prosecution of the Boodlers Being Carried Out—Cana- dians Emigrating to South Dakota— Mexico Abolish’ ng Foreign Legations— Dublin Explosion Investigation — Foreign News. PaRIs, Jan. 6.—The charges against M. Baihut, who was Minister of Public Works in the De Freycinet Cabinet, have aroused great interest, largely on account of the pe- coullar social career of M, Baihut and his con- nection with the divorced wife of M. Armen- gaud. As Minister of Public Works,M.Baihut bad an important influence upon the course of the Government in regard to the Panama Canal Oo., and the charge is substan- tially that he sold that influence. The Figaro says that M. Franqueville, the Judge da’instruction, has decided that the evidence against M. Baihut, presented during the examining In regard to the check for w0,000 francs alleged to have been paid to “him, warrants putting himontrial. It is re- ported that the proof against M. Baihut, as well as against other important Dersonages whom the Government Is prosecuting or pre- paring to prosecute, is due to an understand- ing arrived at between the authorities and M. Charles De Lesseps, whereby the latter, in consideration of giving all the information in his powerin relation to the beneficiaries of the Panama corruption, is to be treated with great leniency, if not admitted to absolute immunity. The report is that M. Chdrles De Lesseps bad an unreserved statement of all the facts within his knowledge and will do the same on his own trial, and at any separate trials of others connected with the scandal. M. De Lesseps’ motivesare stated to be not only to secure immunity as much as possible from the penalty of the law, but also convince the public that tne Panama com pany was forced by Irresistible pressure on the part of officials and the press to choose between wholesale corruption and the threat- ened ruin of the enterprise. Itis said the ac knowledgements made by M. De Lesseps are of the most startling character and will ereate a sensation in America as well as France. ’ Itappears that MM. De Lesseps and Fon- taine have under certain secret influence ex sed in prison, made contessions, The first result of the confessfons was the trrest of M,. Blon‘in, and other arrestsare proDa- Die.

He has been attached to the Tribunal of the Seine for about six years. Following is the text ofthe ictter from M. Aigoin to the Committee of Inwulry relating to the check for 20,000 francs alleged to have been received by Moguit: **Yesterday a lying document which has given rise to abominable calumny was laid be- fore you. I had already brougiii to you, when you for the first time did me the honor to listen to me, the complete account of the work done by me,and for whic! rard that dare to lent my remuperation. Ihadariglit to ie question as settled; and now pe pl say that, on that occasion, | only name and the person who reali) the money was a politician probity is beyond question. I oppose the most categorical contradiction to that alle- gation, which nothing can justify. You, gentlemen of the committee, have seen the counterfoll of the check; you know my name nione appears on it. You are, therefore, tn possession of a proof of the truth of my words, and] defyany, Whoever he be, to produce aconvincing document capable contradicting me.’’ The report that Cornelius Herz has been de- prived of the decoration of tlhe Leuion of Honor on account of his connection with the Panama Canal scandal is untrue. M. Andrieux denies that M. Rarbette, French Ambassador to Berlin, ts the tnfiu- ential man implicatedinthe Panama scean- dal, whose name he refused to give the Par- liamentary Commission, The canal company owned 68,534 shares of Panama Kallroad stock out of the total 70,000 shares. These 68,584 shares are notin the possession of the receiver, M. Monchi- court. Ther are held chiefly by two individ. als. M.

JEFFERSON CiTr, Mo. Jan. 6.—The Dem- ocratic Senators and Representatives who attended last night’s caucus will not soon forget the scenes that followed the unanimous selection of United States Senator ¥F.M.Cockrel!l as his own successor. The caucus was called tonominatea candidate for Senator but there was an understanding among a number of members that a resolution would be introduced strongly indorsing the admin-. istration of Gov. Francis. When the flow of oratory lauding Senator Cockrell was over and he was declared the choice of the caucus by acclamation a storm was precipitated by a resolution introduced by Representative Fogle of Schuyler strongly indorsing Gov. Francis for a place in Cleveland’s Cabinet, The resolution read: Whereas, The great Democratic State of Missouri has grown in wealth, progress and population until mo eg stands prominent inthe galaxy of States; an< Whereas, The Hon“David R.. Francis, Governor of the State of Missoust, during his term of office has ‘made an executive officer of which he and the great ro of Missouri may well be proud; therefore,- eit Resolved, That it is the sense of this jrint caucus that Misseuril is justly entitied toa piace In the Cabinet of President-elect Cleveland, and that David RK. Francis is a suitabie person to fill said position. ts Foxle had been in the chair while the caucus the result was announced he avel to Senator ‘aggart o ounty, and stepped down from the ros- trum. Before the uninitiated knew what he was about, Fogle had fired the shot which caused the uproar. Senator Taggart, who is considered the patriarch of the Senate, looked at Fogle when the resolution was read, ani the mem- ber from Schuyler moved Its adoption. The motion was quickly seconded from several quarters, ig iy Chairman Taggart was abou put it, Senator Espenschied of st. ‘Louis got the floor and shouted: **I rise toa point of order. We were called here for the sole purpose of nominatinga Senator and we have discharged that duty.’ The chair looked rattied, and he had reason to feel that way as there were a dozen mem- bers on the floor clamoring for recognition, tepresentative Davidsonof iarion County, the home of ‘ongressman Hatch, candidate for secretary of Agriculture, was more vehement than the others. He screamed that the whole proceeding was out of time and place, and entered his emphatic objection to the consi.leration of the resolu- tion.

The negative de was taken, but the opponents of the resolution did not make half the showing as the Francis supporters. A division was called for and motion after motion was fired at the now thoroughly agitated chairman. **] want a division!’’ shouted Davidson. Chairman Tagwart’s lips were eon Mon and a number of the mem Pp in fron unverstood him to eay the ‘resolution was carried.

The same evening in London, while we were still in company together with a few literary friends at a Covent Garden resort, the Ger- man author indignantly related the incident. The entire party laughed merrily at our dis- comforture, and one, a well-known actor, finally said: “Henry Irving is the only person who ever really got the best of Lord Tennyson regarding his famous port wine. He was visiting him about two years since. When the dessert came on, the poet left the table and retired to his study with Irving. Here a bottle of his favorite port, a glass for Irving, and the same huge dock-glass, witha pitcrfer of water,was set before him. Ina few moments Lord Ten- nyson feliasieep.

In London an! other Britis) cities, the American will notice little t street corners, in crowded, narrow ghfares, in parkways, at all sudden turnings traversed by vehicles, reading, **Keep to the Left. ' Some years ago when I first noticed th fs it worried ne, I wanted to und-rstand it, and, like a true American, perhaps protest about ita littie. I approached a London policeman with the earnest inquiry: **Beg pardon, officer, but might I ask why,in London, everything goos ‘*To the left?*’ Like one of Mrs. Jarley’s figures his head moved statelily. Heregarded me one awful official moment with contemptuous pity. His head moved back again. Then with wither- ing scorn be answered: **an’ w’y in ’ell shouldn’t ic?’’ Thad neverthought ofthat. After obseryv- ing and thinkingalittieI saw that the En- glish a e right in keeping to the left. Drivers being seated attherightthere is absolutely no other way tn which to utilize every inch of crowded street. In keepingto theright, as with us, no driver can safely judge di-tance when meeting or ing other vehicles. Here, where the drivers’ heads practically come together over their wheel-hubs when meet- ing or passing, far greater speed is secured; while danger and loss from clashing wheels are almost wholly avoided.

As we alizhted at King’s Cross “tation,after milord, milady and ‘*Darby’’ had been ten- deriy bestowed ina handsome Drougbam, it transpired that the man and wife’s five chil- dren, two maids and the other miscelianeous luggage, all of whom and which had shared a third-class compartment with as many un- couth Yorkshire yotels, were left behind to reach home as best they could by way of a raging London ‘‘thripenny’’ bus. There isa quaint little innof Edinburgh, hard by 8t. Andrew's Square, in which I love to make my home when in ‘“‘‘auld Reekie,’’ for while it is bu: a few steps from the city’s peerless” Princess street itis still within the precincts of a fine old residence district, made famous by the haunts of a score of the great ilterary Scotchmen of otherdays. — Much going and coming between this inn and central city places brought to my notice the fact that neariyevery pleasant summer | night when the hush of evening had falien upon the town,a marvelous singer of the tenderest baliads of Scotiand came (hat way; étood fora quarter of an hour so in the ulet entrance to St. Andrew's street, and at tervais tothe accompaniment of an acco dion sang sweetly for those who tapried. : Atchance glimpses of the singer and nief regular evening audience I noticed, too, that , the man never solici-ed alms, He stood quite still in the middie of the street, and now and then some one of the crowd, in the pauses of his singing, would step quietly up to him and place a cola within his hand. These were copper cotns always, and they nearly always came from the pockets of poor people. Finally, the has and the scene touching my own heart, went and placed a cola in his band as others had done before me, Then for the frst time I saw that the man was blind. I saw, besiies, such a face as will baunt me all my lifetime, Icannot teil you what painter has put most of hopeful ation and subiime | as warmly in touch as though our hearts had — been open to each other for a lifetime. ‘*| Knew by your voice,’’ be said sadly, ‘*you saw through my s! sness.

You makerhymes. 8o0 do I.’’ This deprecatingly. ‘*God knows my heart Is sair t’ sing wi’ a pen, too!’’ Solknew he had already sung ‘‘wi’ his pen’’ ani made him thereandthen repeat hisrhymes. Here was another Burns in rags and obscurity. Surely this is so. Then I went with this blind poet and singer, John Connell, to his home, No. 12, Gibbs’ Entry (second flat) Nicholson street, Edinburgh, away up among the densely inhabited winds and closegof old-town. What was there? Just so many children one could scarcely count tnem or remember their names; a kindly-faced wife, loyal and true; a hearthside as barren of the comforts of this Mfe as the face of a storm- beaten crag; but with faith, hope and un- faltering love enough within itto seed for saving an entire race. The story of the manand his bitter strug- gieisashortone; because of his vocation, his poverty, his silent suffering. He wasa mechanic once with boundless hopes for edu- cation and advancement; perhaps with dreams of fame. The blindness came, That the wife and Dbairns might not starve he must sing upon the street. Then a passing grand lady heard him sing. Sheeent for him and gave him an audience. the old hopes famed anew. To make her husband presentable the soft- hearted wife gave all their savings and pledzed all their little belongings for cloth- ingand a brave new accordion. ‘‘The puir body may find favor!’’ the fond wife prayed. He did—until he told the grand lady proudly of his g-0da wifs and bairns. Then she bid him good-day, and her servant showed him the door. Ae John Connell bas been singing for alms now for more than four years for this mis- hap; that those dear tohim may barely live; to relteve himself from the wolf-fangs of the usurer; and to retrieve himself from the favor of this grand Edinburgh lady.

More digging discloses solid walls set Beneath the rubbish of its sides. The sea itself hardly broke the line of this stout old artery, along wiiich once surged the iron blooad of Rome. Stern Agricola rode at the bead of his lexions past the very spot on which you are standing. Almost ceaseless tides of warriors swept over the road to ons Grampus, that.10,00) Slain ani stark Caleuo- fans might form an impassable wall before the mist-wreathed mountains beyond. Eigpteen hundred years have passed since jealous Domitian recalled to Rome this in- vincibie leader of steel-maliled slaughterers, and the glowing pen of Tacitus told the sur- passing bravery of the skin-clad Northmen who fell beneath his onslaughts; but as you linger upon thisold Roman way, dreaming untilthe sun is almost level with the far mountain tops, famingtheir purple heather marvelously, countless Wraiths pass and re- pass in olden battiearray, Then that itis the nineteenth and not the first century upon which thesun is shining is recalled to you by the face of a keenly ob- servunt, but solemn colile dog breaking be- tween some clumps of golden broom above your head. He has been mind- ing a fiock of sheep grazing yonder on the brae-side; and he has stepped asiae for a moment to interrupt yuur vaga- rous faacies about Agricola an‘ all the other grim old fe.lows of his blood-letting time, and to study your intentions and possibly examine your credentials. You beg his par- don for the trespass; leap the wall tothe highway again; gaze back down the valley upona score of red-roofed hamlets; push forward to the wayside inn where jou are to tarry; and, between the walls of its huge chamber, yous march in dreams from the Seven Hills tothe Grampians, with mailed hosts and forests of spears,- along the old Roman road throughout tne livelong night, LDGAR L. WAKEMAN, ELECTRICAL NOTES. In answer to the supposed signal lights that are flashing on the planet of Mars it is sugested that the brilliant electric lighting system of London, which extends over twelve square miles of streets, be alternately extinguished and lighted at intervals of five minutes. Cars for the delivery and collection of malls, express and parcel delivery cars and street sprinklers and sweepers are some of the novelties introduced on different electric railways in this country. The Government has been recently install- ing electric stamp-canceling machines hav- ing a capacity of 3,000 letters per hour inall the post-offices of consequence In the coun- try wherever electric current Could be con- veniently obtained. . An electric engine has been designed for or- dinary passenger traffic ona subD-city line in London which admits of its motors being re- volved when thetrain ts ata standstill, It operates on & central-rall system, and many economical advantages are claimed for ft. Electric cloth-cutters are one of the latest novelties on the market, and their ready adoption by many of the larger clotuing manufacturers seems to insure their success. Several thicknesses of cioti: can De Cut in any pattern quickly and accurately by merely guiding over the surface the revolving knife- eige wheel, which is operated by a small motor geared directly to it. ‘ihe whole apparatus is very compact and nicely faished. A German inventor has taken out patents on an incandescent lamp having three inde- pendent carbon filaments an.! three ter- minals in place of the ordinary loop with two terminais. These filaments are of equal re- sistance and the lam rovably invented to the te Its brililancy; § whiteness and fixecness are supe 1 and simplicity are among its best com- mendations. Aneilecirician ofthis city claims that by coating the carbons used in arc lamps with copper of avout the same thickness as that usually employe:i and then with a heavier coating of zine the carbonscan be made to burn nearly twice as lonz as with merely the copper covering. . Several theories are aid- vanced by the inventorto account for this, one being that the heat of thearec forms oxide of zinc, which permeates tlhe copper conting, closing its pores and preventing the access of coli alr, and another that the zinc ox.de Covering the copper protects it and prevents its burning away above the arc.

The power-house will be the first bullding itn thatcountry ever- heated throughout with electricity, and probably the first power- station heated in this manner in the world, Electricity is to become a great factor in prolonging human life. It nas been discov: ered that ozone when manufactured and iIn- troduced into air by the electrical process tends to give the air healthful qualities by exterminating ail the disease ge:ims anid mi- crobes it inay cuntain, During all the great epiiemics in past years it has been noticed that the alr has contained an unusually small per entage of ozone, and that as soun as this percentage increased the spread of the dis- ease ceased. Moreover, whenever the alir became cnarged electrically more than usual! during several days: the epidemic was found to diminish itn its severity. A French physi- clan has recently made some Very interesting and instructive compilations on the subject, which would seem to warrant the attention of Dourds of health and physicians generally. ihe Patent Ojfice has recently granteda number of patents for maxnetic ore se,a- rators,and also several for printing tele- graph systems. A new teiephone company, with a capital stock of $80,000,000, has been incurporated in Chicago. A number of small electric launches are to be sent tothe \orid’s Fair next year, to be used for smail excursion parities. The motive power will be supplied Dy means of storage batteries.

The apparatus consists of 106 Incandescent lamps, which are operated by a key board somethin on the principie of atypewriter. Acole of signals founded on the Morse telegraph al- phabet is used, and experiments have shown that signals can be read fof a distance of fir- teen miles. * Proi.

Ps WHEN the wires are pat under ground —_ as proposed by a “ill introduced in the Legislature, “there will be more safety above ground for people and property.

Butlet him be firm and com- mand the Republican Satan to get away from in front of those whiskers. oe ——————————oo-—S—tiC« SS —— In their attempt to gain control of the Senate the Republicans are trying one kind of ‘‘soap’’ on the Legislature and another kind on Senator Peffier. Both seem to be good fields for a ‘‘soap’’ cam- paign. cS a. OF A aoop and sufficient objection to Henry Villard as Secretary of the Interior is that heis boss of aland grant railway. Mr. Villard is a nice man and may be a Demo- crat, but he is noteligible under the law of public opinion. — >_> — A DemocraT elected to the Senate by Republican votes is an object of suspicion from the outset. The Kansas Demoéracy should rather let the prize go to Jerry Simpson or some other Populist with Democratic leanings. Mr. CLEVELAND’s difficulty in con- structing a Cabinet is his surplus of first- class materials. There are so many capa- bh’ statesmen from whom to cho at he naturally hesitates. Mr. Hafrison’s task wage comparatively easy. Tue sugar bounty was created for the benefit of Vermont. Those Republican writers who are now saying it ought to be abolished should communicate with ex- Senator Edmunds, who would not have allowed the McKinley bill to pass if there had been no sugar in it. , a ai, Ir Charles de Lesseps has turned informer as the cables report, We may expect a pretty thorough exposure of the Panama steal. And let us hope he will tel all about that American slush fund of $2,500,000 dis- bursed by his revered father among Washington officials and Congressmen. a _ — Juper EpMuNDs instructed the Grand- a - tion until the jail cases were disposed This instruction would have been un- }less its opponents can preventa vote. \ ) necessary it eller had done his full The cases bould have gone ih | wo duty.

Exactly. The Gable Min- ing Co., said to be composed of high of- ficials in Washington with plenty of money, has monopolized the best of-it and employ the poor men to dig — at cur- rent wages. THE substitution ie worth for wealth as the qualification for public places of trust and honor is in the line of the Democratic campaign against plutocracy. The Cleve- land Administration cannot find a depart- ure from the course of its predecessor which will more commend it to the esteem of the people than this. ——— 0 ee THE report of Surgeon Williams of Mem- phis on the filth that has caused the death of seventeen convicts at Helena, Ark., is enough to sicken the whole country. That such conditions as he describes can any- where exist in a greatand enlightened re- public, whose aimisto bethe model of the world, is well-nigh incredible. | —-———— ? THAT Missouri has a large number of applicants for important places under the new administration,-is not at all to her discredit. The Missourian is not so-nar- row asto contract his patriotism to the limits of his own State. He is national in hisscope, andin matters pertaining to the country’s welfare he has only the broadest views. ° THE gentlemen who believe that they ought to be in Mr. Cleveland’s Cabinet are not helping their chances by forcing recommendations and influences in their favor upon Mr. Cleveland. They are only filling the days until hisinauguration with more annoyance than he ought to have and placing their facesin position to receive a slap when the President announces his advisers. Cn ee JUDGE EDMUNDs has made an excellent start upon his judicial road. His an- nounced determination to set aside no more forfeitures of bonds and to insist upon respect for the ordersof court and the prompt trial of all cases isa move in the right direction. By adhering strictly to this platform he may contribute invyal- uable service in the administratigh of criminal law in this city. —Eee Gov. FIFER is rightin saying that the school law of Illinois was a non-partisan measure and received support from all parties. But when its compulsory feat- ures were disclosed when it was put into force the Democracy declared against it as was natural, while justas naturally the Republicans sustained the very features which were objectionable. Compulsion is not in order in this country. THE President of the Chicago Real Estate Board declares that a dail} average oftwo killed and five wounded has been reached atthe Chicago grade crossings, and he adds that during the World’s Fair period the number killed every day will possibly reach twelve. This matter should be mended for the sake of the Fair visitors if not’ for the natives. Every fair visitor must, itis true, die at some time, but what visitor would like to have it known that he had died in Chicago? —____—__._ e ——~ —____—___ THE announcement made by Richard Croker that Murphy would not oppose President Cleveland, should he be elected Senator, indicates a desire and purpose to get in out of the rain. Tammany, like all —_ e other political machines, knows that there} is a point beyond which it is not safe to go in Opposition to the popular will. Never- theless, this does not affect the question of Mr. Murphy’s fitness. The Democracy of the country is interested just now in get- ting the very best material possible in the Senate and it is not necessary to say that Edward Murphy is not of the best. EE ~=S— . — _ all THE issue has been made in the O’ Neill- Joy contest in the Eleventh Congressional District. Congressman O’Neill submits charges of which he claims to have indu- bitable proof that he was defeated by boodle and fraud. The vote in the district indicates that the attention of the Republi- can fine workers and their City Hall co- adjutors was-eoncentrated there, and what they can do in the way of carrying elections by crooked work has been amply proved in the past. In his fight for a square deal Mr. O’Neill should have the stanch sup- port and aid of Democrats in and out of his district. - THERE are at least ten persons in the. State of Kentucky who feel that Mr. Car- lisle should gointo the Cabinet as Secre- tary of the Treasury, and that the country cannot afford to accept any other man that Mr. Cleveland may choose. These ten gentlemon are the men who are waiting to step into Mr. Carlisie’s Senatorial shoes, 5 sted wearing the shoes discarded by Mr. Carlisle, bat it is every man’s right to aspire to the ton while Congrese is in session. i | thd (UNPARALLELED | of Councilmah Sloan’s ob- jection to voting for the acceptance of Foerstel’s, resignation by the Council be- cause it was not accompanied by any guarantee that the shortage in the Treas- ury would be made good is demonstrated by later developments. It was 4 part of the unspeakable folly which has marked the conduct of the city authorities in dealing with the Treasury defalcation to accept upon irresponsible rumor the as- signment of Foerstel’s property as an act for the benefit of the city. Now that the authorities have let slip all hold upon hini by which he might have been coerced into protecting the city from loss rirtT fa + and every advantage which the city had . + ed | i . ee Beg “a wn - o hats , 2 ie, ieee oe HS mea P cow 0 and which hunger almost justifies. The penal law is in this respect a fruitful source of crime. , The convict should be put to work and paid fair wages, that is to say he should receive something near the market rate of wages, which, after a deduction to pay his expenses, should be turned over to his family, or, if he has no family, should be laid by for him against the end of his term. No known code of morals justifies the taking of any man’s earnings, whether he be free or convict. The law is not in harmony with the moral sense of the peo- ple on this subject. hen land is taken from its owner for public purposes full compensation is paid, and the reasoning which underlies this just provision is equally strong against taking from him and from his innocent family the fruits of his labor while undergoing imprisonment for crime. They at least have nottorfeited their right to his earnings. : Some provision looking to the correction has been submissively yielded to him, it | of this barbarous surviva) should be em- is announced that the assignment was for | bodied in any convict legislation which the benefit of Foerstel, and that the city’s claim will receive no more conciforation than any other claim against the estate. If the Council had acted with a particle of discretion or regard for the city’s inter- est it would have declined to accept Foer- stel’s resignation or consider any proposi- tion favorable to him withoutall the guar- antee within his means that the city would be protected from the consequences of his wrongdoing. It would have attempted to use its power of investigation and removal in behalf of the city for what it was worth. Now that Foerstel’s attorney has obtained for him a clean bill of official health and all the ad- vantage possibie in his situation, the city must fight for its money. The executive and legal representatives of the city have been just as lax. No in- formation against Foerstel has been filed, and no steps have been taken to secure the money stolen from the Treasufy. If Foer- stel had been the employe of a private firm or corporation, responsible for the robbery of nearly $64,000, how long would he have been free from arrest, and how long before every measure possible under the law to secure the refunding of the stolen money would have been taken? It is safe to say that the measure of the sins of omission 4nd commission of which our city administration has been guilty in’ the matter of the Foerstel robbery is with- out a parallelin the history of municipal misgovernment. . g —_—_—_—_—_>_0—__—_) —_——_—_—_—_"—_ THE NON-VOTING NUISANCE. y It is hardly probable that the proposi- tion of Senator McGinnis for an amend- ment tothe constitution, providing that citizens who have failed to vote at two suc- cessive elections without sufficient cause shall thereafter be forever disqualified from voting, will receive serious consider- ation from the General Assembly. The difficulties in the way of enforcing such a constitutional provision are so great that it will be put down at once as impractica- ble, yet the suggestion is a well deserved slap atthose citizens who willfully and habitually neglect the highest privilege and dearest right of free self-government. The so-called ‘‘stay at home’’ vote sometimes works for good, but when it does so it is in the form of a special protest of voters against party errors or blunders and itis a form of protest which does not reflect credit upon the courage and inde- pendence of the ‘‘stay at home’’ voters. But the fact that refraining from _ vot- ing on special occasions may accomplish good results which would be better accomplished by voting according to con- victions does not affect the fact that the habit of not voting is unjustifiable and productive of harm to the State. Through it unworthy men get into office, unworthy forces control politics and corrupt bossism is enabled to accomplish its vicious ends. Itisa great and growing ill, but itis not likely that any legal remédy can be found forit. Itis one of those public ills arising out Of the failure of individuals to exercise their rights and perform their duties, which must be cor- rected by moral agencies. The forma- tion of a corrective public senti- ment through agitation and education is the only effectual means of reaching it. The proposal and discussion of the meas- ure introduced by Senator McGinnis are, however, in the line of this educa- tional work. The subject cannot be brought too frequently or prominently before the people, and non-voting citizens cannot receive too many or too severe slaps for their wrong-doing. _ — a, Sel PAY THE CONVICT WAGES. A question well deserving the attention of the Legislature is that of convict labor and its remuneration. Hitherto the convict’s interests have been forgotten, ignored or held not worth considering, but the lowest humanitarian- ism demands that/ his case be heard at least. Were the convict himself the only one concerned the case would be simplified, though not disposed of. But his fam- ily has rights which, under the present barbarous system, are tram- pled. under foot. The object of the penal law is not only to pun- ish but to, prevent crime. But it cannot be denied that the conviction of a husband an@ father is in many instances the first step jin the degradation of his family, which, left without a natural pro- tector and breadwinner becomes a prey to temptation | oiten too strong to resist.

ROAD LEGISLATION. There seems to be consi lerable question as tothe constitutionality of imposing special taxes on abutting property for the construc- tion of roads, if that special tax should tn- Crease beyond the constitutional Iimit the enti county tax paid by the property. The courts have decided, however, that Special taxes may be legally imposed and collecte:i on town and city realty for the reconstruction of streets, although that tax may cause the property to pay more than the constitutional limit of taxa- tion Oxed for cities andtowns. ‘The surest methou for obtaining ood roads ts the pas- sage of a constitutional amendment author- izing the levying of a special tax therefor.

The importance of the duties contemplated in the above recommendations may necess!i- tate the creation of a new State department, in order to insure their efficient and satisfac- tory performance. If in your wisdom, haw ever, those duties should be wxiven toon of the existing departinents, every precat- tion should be taken that it select expert and fair-minded men, and thatno personinany way interested in or indebted tothe assoclia- tions should be permitted to examine them. *°* * © ELECTION LAWS, The Australian election law, enacted by the Thirty -fifth General Assembly, but confined in its operation to cities of 5,000 Inhabitants Or more, was by the Thirty-sixth General | Assembly made applicable to the entire | State, and the gen-ralelection of November last was the first held thereunder. it is possible that many voters were prevented from exercising the right of. suffrage by want of knowledge as _ to how the ballot should be cast under that system. However, after a careful examination of the election laws of other States whicli have ‘'adopted similar statutes, I am convinced that our law is equal toany and superior to most. It is clear in its provisions and easy |ofcomprehension by voters, but it might be made more so by an amendment requiring each political party to select an emblém to be placed at the head of its ticket, whereby every citizen might readily be enabled to vote fortine men who represent the princl- | ples of his cholce. STATE BOARD OF CHARITIES AND CORRECTIONS. It is affirmed, and not without reason, that | Other States are leading Missouri in the wis- 'dom, economy and enlightened advancement oftheir methodsin humanitarian underiak- ‘ings. Our expenditures for maintaining eleemosynary and penal institutions are by no means inconsiderabie, but they are much less than in many of the older commonwealths, where much more atte i- tion is paid to caring forthe unfortunate and raising the fallen. It is urged that much good would ensue from placing our asyiuins ior insane, our reformatories and prisons, under the control of a State Board of Chari- tiles, which, by thought and attention, could unify and systematize the work and manage- ment, and bring avout much Detter results. I think the suxgestion a good one, and recom- mend that it be adopted, The revenue of the State would admit of giving satisfactory compensation to interested and capable citi- vens who would devote their entire time to the work, to the betterment of the infirmand > ayward, and the benefit of society and the ‘tate. The Thirty-sixth General Assembly appro- priated $591,200 for eleemosynary institutions for the vears 1891 and 1892. The iaw provides that each eleemosynary age Arte shall have a board of five managers, which shail meet once each month, and shall be given an an- nual salary of $100 each, inaddkKion to their traveling expenses, The penitenWNary is un- der control ofa Board of Inspectoérs, com. posed of tlie Treasurer, Auditor and Attor- ney-General, whorecelve for that servicea yearly saiary $250each, It will be seen, therefore,thnat at present the administration or manacement of the seven eleemosynary institutions and the State penitentiary costs $4,250 perannum, in addition to the traveling expenses of the members attending monthly board meetings. which will aggregate $4,000 per annum additional. X, In the foregoing I have attempted to give you as thorough tinfor- GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS. and. errr etS mation concerning the State government and its requirements asthe proper limits of this paper wilh justify. The recommendations made are the result of a conscientious study of the needs of the State and the best inter- ests of her citizens. Idesireto caution you against’ excessive leg siatfon. Very few new laws are necessary or advisable. ‘ihe people of Missouri require very little gov- ernment, The tendency of the day to incor- porate all enterprises and to concentrate all lines of commerce and industry Uniier one management is at variance wéth the prin- ciples of our government and should be reg- ulated, if not checked. The liberty of the individual should be observed and his oppor- tunities protected in all countries, but es- pecially in this, where all stand equal before the law. My views concerning ‘‘trusts’’ and ‘tcombines,’’ and the injury to our ins:liu- tions that wil) result therefrom if not guarded axvainst, arenot changed from the expression given tothem in my inaugural address and repeated in my message to the last General Assembly. ‘the people of this commonwealth are proud of the economical record made by the State government for twenty years past, anid de- sire a continuince thereof, Such a poilcy is eminently wise. ladvise the greatest pus- sible mares of care in disposing of the money collected from the tax-payers, xI. I have spoken 60 often concern- ingthe material ; progress and the wonderful resources Of Missouri, that it is not necessary for me to dwell upon them here. The Labor Commissioner, in his re- ports for 1891 and 1892, has complied statistics showing thejsuplus products of \\issourtfship- ped from 106 counnties Quring those years. Lie estimates thetr value at $106,903,183 In 18/1 and at $126,027,611 in 1892—an Increase of nearly 20 per cent in one year. These are the products of farm, forestand mine in Missourl—great care baving been exercised that no commo- dities are included except those that ate within the State. MATERIAL PROGRESS AND DEVELOPMENT, was 100 per cent greater than the value placed on the manufactured product of St. Louls for 1880 by the Tenth Census, Census Bu.letin No. 229, sued Oct, 12, 1892, shows that the capital in- vested in 1890 was 482.61 per cent greaterthan that in- vested in manufacturing inthe same city in isso, Census Bulletin No. 267, re Oct. 19, 1892, shows that the capital invested in manu- facturing in St. Josephin 1890 was 220.37 per cent greater than that ofiss0. A comparison of the number of hands employed, the cost of material used and the value of products manufactured in those cities, shows a like increase from 18980 and 189°. The figyres given heretofore show the rapid growth in‘the assessed valuation of the tax- able property of the State during the last four years. The assessment of 1892 was $294,- 000,000 greater than that of 1880—an increase of about 62 percent. The population of Mis- souri increase.! 23.56 per cent during the de- cade ending June 1, 1890, while the assessed valuation of property increase: 47.59 per cent duriig@ the same pertod. These fizures are sufficient toshow that the progress and de- velopment of the State, from a material standpoint, are very wratifying. In social and intellectual advancement, and in every- thing to be desired by a prosperous, patri- otic people, \:issouri has kept pace with her sisters, and with the progressive, peace- 1Oving spirit of the age. XII. Our citizens were never s0 confident nor s0 reso- lute as at the present time. Conscious of the advantaves and opportuni- ties of residence and effort here, they are sanguine of the future. You assembD'e under most favorabie auspices. For the first time in twenty years our State Government willl soon be itn accord with both the executive and legislative branches of the Federal Government, and there is every prospect of such enactments by the Conuress as will inure to the general interests of this State, I am firm in the belief that under the incoming administration Missouri will make greater progress than during any similar pertod for years past. Into every arena into which States have entered during the last four years, Mis- sour! has been represented, andthe State never held so prominenta relative position ih the sisterhood, nor were her resources and her capablilties ever so well Known as at present.

The Revival Creating a Stirin Religious Circl-s — An Aggre:sive Crusade Against Sin Planned for Next Week— Sunday-School Union Committees. One of those indefinite rumors which ap- pear to come from nowhere, but which often- times carry with thema great deal of truth, has got abroad in reference to the St. Louls coadjutatorship. It the effect that Rt. Rev. J. J. Bishop of Wheeling, W. Va., has a tight grasp on the office, The rumor emanates pfrom the source of much of the inspired Catholic news, namely, Washingtdn, D. C.; where Archbishop Satolliis the guest of the Catholic University. It is not known whether Mgr. Satolli had or will have anything to say about the local coadjutorship, butto judge from the immense powers which he has re- vealed by degrees, there is every reason to believe that he will havea great deal to say in the selection of assistant. The papers sentto Rome by the suffragan conference, held in this city on Dec, 15, will not be opened until the i5th inst., and the Propaganda has long ago re- ceived unofficial knowledge of the work of the conference, andthe namesof the three candidates have been well canvassed. A telegram from Chiecawzo states that the Pope has selected Bishop Burke of Cheyenne, Wyo., for the vacant see of St. Josep:, Mo. This ls a consequence of the suffragan confer- ence.

A sale of 50,000 bu corn was made yesterday p. m. forexport.

A significant bit of news comes from Lonaon in this, that a cold énell almost as severe as that of two years aro prevails on the Continent. It is feared that severe weather will have a disastrous effect upon the crops of different continental countries, as the plant entered the winterin an unusually for- ward condition. Beerbohm says: There has been aslight tmprove- mentin theeonditiog of the new Engitish wheat of- fered on the markets this week, Dut the quantity re- mains comparatively small.

Round Books Are No Longer Possible— » who went broke are iegion. c y, 6 wort : x ‘ ey » The Treacy Stable-Track Talk—The Nell-MoOue Fight Off—Crescent Club Opening—Base Ball—General Sporting News. ***How many bookmakers do you know that made money last year¥’’ was the query put to a well-known member ofthe craft re- cently by a Chicago scribe. ‘‘I know very fow,’’ was his reply; in fact, those that have made money in my circle of acquaint- ances you could easily count on your fingers. It is by no means so easy nowadays to make a winning book as it was some years ago. Zhe public are becoming better acquainted with the horses every year, and the majority of the visitors to-a race track in these Gays can tell you as much about the horsesand their form as can any man on the biock. They are shrewd ob- sérvers, too, and seem to catch on to the fact as to whether a horse is good or not about as quickly as does the stable. To make around book is in these days an impossibility. If a man coukl get eyery horse in the race played then it would be possible to makea winning book, no matter how the race went, but itisn’t. Take a race with a dozen horses in sometimesand the public will play only twoofthem. These two in form outclass the others, and the average race-goer knows that just as well as does the man of chalk and figures. The longest kind of odds against the outsiders will not tempt him to invest on their chances. He says to himself, and truly, that they are outclassed. The resuit is that a bookmaker is forced to take a gambiing chance and trust toluckin alding him to knock down apn outsider. Expenses, too, help to eat up a bookmaker’s income very fast, These expenses will average $140 aday and in some cases even more than that, $100 being paid for the priv- llege and the balance for clerk hire. Take these expenses and a few losing Gays, and you will find that you have madea Nee large-sized bole inthe average track roll, Last season was a particularly hard One on the knights of the pencil. The reentage of winning favorites in the West Ss larger than it hasever before been. More good things, too, have gone through, and as a result the books have gotten very largely the worst of it. The men who quit the year any large sumahéad of the game, as I sald before, are few in number, and those who broke even after paying their legitimate expenses had good reason to congratulate themselves. The bookmakers, or perhaps I should say the men who thought they were bookmakers, I could name a Gozen right off the reel, and so probably could any one well informed in the busi- mees.°° « ° THE TREACY STABLE. Harry McDaniel, a well-known St. Louis boy, who s0 successfully handled the Treacy stable during the past season, has signed to ‘take charge of the string againthis year. He will have @ very strong stable to start with— about twenty in number, many of them giready winners. The stable will be here for tha Jockey Club meeting and some of the good things are worth watching. mong the number arethe crack 3-year-olds Trish Chief and Semper Rex, w were ong the best %-year-olds in the West the season, and, as they went into winter uarters as sound as when they were foalei, they should be a most use! air in 1893.

Morrissey and Chickering will also be out together with the fast little mare liia, who made a show of such horses as the 15, Faraday, Strathmaid, etc., at the Axington iail meeting, should she prove not in foai, as she was bred late in the season, The 2-year-olds will consist of Otwyanna, br. f£. by Onandago—Miss Hight; Wedding sell, ch. f., by Lelaps—Vitality; Preference, .f., by Fonso—Pretense; Newark, b.c., by Bulwark—Maggie U.; Mahogany, ». c., by Bulwark—\iay Kennedy; Laketa, b. c., by Lelaps—Creole Bell, and Alonso, b. c., by Fonso.

George Juison, who rode for the stable last season, will also ride during the coming year. WHO OWNS KING LEE? The sensational turf suit for the posséssion of King Lee gives no evidence of anearly termination. The testimony so tar taken would fill several complete issues of un aver- age eight-page sheet, and the halfof it ap- parently has yet to be heard. The case will hardly be submitted to the court before a fortnight yet. ‘So far every- thing has been io favor of the plaintir, Maddox, and if the case were submittedto a jury now he would be awarded the colt in- side uf ten minutes, says @Loulsviiic writer. Finger has put upa@ very weak defense— leading intoxication in exXtenuation of his fnapiity to remember the exact nature of the traneaction involving the sale of King Lee by Scoggans to Maddox. Hoeis yery prominent, in a business way, in Kentucky, and the notoriety . he has achieved by the testignony adduced before the commission . as naturally been of an exceedingly distasteful and embarrassing nature. - Indeed, there is some talk of a com. romise between the parties inorder that he trial or hearing of the case may procee nofurther. Since the purchase of G. W, Johnson by an Kastern turfman and the pro. bability of his remaining in the East next season King Lee takes rank as the best colt of his age inthe West. He is entered in stakes ageregating in value nearly $200,000, and as he is Mysuperd condition and apt to train on his chances are certainly Very attractive and ntesting for, In addition to this he is worth $90,000, the sam having been olferea for him last summer. AT EAST 6T. LOUTS. St. Panceas, Jennie Harding and Harry Warren contested for supremacy at almost equal weights, in the Owners’ Handicap at five-eighths of a mile, at the course across the river yesterday, and Harry Warren won, after a hard drive with Jennie Harding, bya head. Jennie Harding was backed down from 8 to 2 to 6 to & St. Pancras opened at even money and closed at 8 to 2, while Harry Warren opened at 6 and closed at 5 to 1, Mobiile Lee, first choice for the panaguses event at 8 to 2, won by one length from Roxie Todd.

Besides these are the young. males, the bachelors, or hollus-chickie, as the Aleut Indians call them, who are forced to herd by themselves till they are about 6 years old, when they begintotry to set up their own families by winning the cows from the old fellows. Evenifthey carry the cows away by stealth; they will have to fight to; Keep them as soon as the old wigs discover the theft. ROARING AND FIGHTING. This sortoft warfare goeson all summer, the fighters roaring at the top of thelr voices. They seem to have very littie affection for the wives they are so jealousof, and the mothers seem to have little for their babfes, or pups as they are called. They do not caress themor play with them. They feed them oncein threeor four daysif the little ones cannet get other food. The mothers have no voicesto speak of, nor the babies; they make one sound so like the bileat of sheep that sheep will answer to It. Halfa millionof sea-bear pups probably were born onthe Pribylov Islands this sum. mer.

Four times the bill has been introduced in the Legislature, each time supported by a unanimous public opinion, and each time the corporations have employed a strong loDby and beaten the bill. This time it must become a law, !in spite of the influence of the corporations, and the Post-DisPpaTou intends to give its friends all in its power.

FourtTa: That other cities have put them under ground. Firra: That it ts practicable. ot oppress the corpor- pital invested in the companies, but will only protect the private capital invested in the city from the oppression wrought by the presence of the wires. DANGEROUS TO LIFE. The big list of linemen and other people, as wellas animals, killed by contact with the wires, proves that they are dangerous. Loss of life would be avoided if the wires were buried. The reports of insurance men of fres caused by the contact of the wires with houses shows that they injure property. There would be no fires from this cause if the wires were put underground. ‘That they mar the looks of a city, which in other respects commands the admiration of architects, artists and topographical en- gineers is abundantly proved by the descrip- tions of the city and the casual comment that finds its way into the magazines. New York and Chicago long ago obliged the corporations to put their wires under- ground. In these cities the subway system has been demonstrated to be entirely practicable. It has been shown thatit was cheaper for the electric companies to maintain their wires underground than on poles. They object. to the change iD &t. Louis only on account of the .. «First cost.

Gutmann Breaks His Leg—Hoe Receives $25 From the Post-Dispatch. Quite a number of minor accidents that have occurred during the holidays were at- tributable to the most trivial causes. Several of the benefits recently paid out by the Posrt- DISPATCH in connection e with the ac: cident coupon, which appears in every Sunday’s issue, have been on account of broken limbs or other Injuries received by people in their own homes, while preparing for or celebrating the Christmas season. Chairs or step ladders have siipped as decorations were being placed on the walls, ankles have been turned while Gancing, or orange peel, carelessly thrown around, has resulted in someone's Gownfall and injury. It is to this latter class that the last benefit, paid this morning, to Henry Gutmann, belongs. Mr. Gutmann isa giass blower, and resides at 118 Lafayette street. On New Year's eve he entertaineda | few friends at his bome, and his three lUttle children were allowed to be present and were plentifully supplied with oranges, nuts etc. While playing with the little Mr. Gutmann slipped on a piece of orange peel and fell, breaking bis right leg above the knee. At the time of the accident he had in his possession an accident coupon clipped from that day’s issue of the Posr-DISPATCH, and properly filled out with bis name and aa- dregs in ink. This was presented at this office this morning by his wife and promptly redeemed. Her receiptfor the money reads as follows: Br.

ANNIE GUTMANS. Itis just from such small causes as the above, andat just such unexpected times, accidents are médést likely to occur. It is best to always be provided, and the most effectual provision you can make is to clip every week the coupon to be found on the second page of every issue of the SUNDAY Posr-Disrpatcu.
