Tanner's Kecord. Chicago, Oct. 4. Prof. George Sloan, who is living with friends at, ii'Si'i Wa bash avenue, has for forty-five days thrived on a diet of mineral water and drugs. During all that tim-3 not aa arti cle of nourishment, solid or liquid, has passed his lips. Once be attempted to drink some weak beef tea, but could not swallow a mouthful of the beverage. Now, although quietly proud of beating Dr. Tanner's famous record of forty-two days, he is anxious to eat, but can not. The professor is 61 years old, his ad vanced age making the case tne more remarkable. For several years Mr. Sloan has been afflicted with a malignant stomach com plaint, and at times the patient would fast for days in order to liti I relief. A month and a half ago he decided to again live along for a few days without food of any kind, and obtained such sat isfactory results that he continued fast ing until he is now unable to eat or drink anything at all but m.neral water. The friends with whom he is living said last night their patient's mind seemed just as bright as ever, but'they do not eutertain the Bame view of the result as his wife does, and told her that they thought he could not live much longer. One of the most curious features of the case is that Mr. Sloan has not be come emaciated by lack of food, He is nearly six feet tall and a heavily built man and maintains plenty of flesh on his face and body, a bright flusii over each cheek bone is the only appreciable symp tom of distress. Mr. Sloan was years ago a newspaper and magazine writer, and is essentially a scholar, not only in the classic languages but fluent in four modern tongues. He has been a great student in his more active years and is widely known. Sev eral medical men have called to see him and are watching his progress with close interest. 3IR. BOK AND II IS WIFE.

POPULISTJSAiriS. Democrats Show a Large Loss in Georgia Election. Populists Will Have 40 Mem bers ot the Legislature. WATSON'S DISTRICT. It is Said to Have Gone Populist by Five Hundred. The Democrats Carry the State by Only About 20,000. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 4. Returns come in slowly, but enough official and unof ficial reports have been received by the Atlanta Journal up to noon to indicate an average Democratic majority of from 20,000 to 25,000. Atkinson, who is the Democratic nominee for gov ernor has been scratched in all parts of the state and it is believed his majority will not exceed 15.0UO. The Democrats will have 30 majority in the state senate and 15 in the house. Every congressional district except Black's in the Tenth, or Watson's district went for the Democrats. The N inth, represented by Tate, is carried for the Democrats by seven majority, and the Fourth, represented by Moses, by 900. This is the first election since the war when Republicans and Populists have made complete fusion. The negroes voted solidly with the Populists. A great surprise has been the defeat of Warner Hill, a prominent candidate for speaker of the next house. His county went with the Populists. This insures the election of W. II. Fleming ot Richmond as speaker. South Georgia counties, which are solid for Representative Turner for sen ator, have given the largest majorities in the state for the Democrats. Chatham county gave Atkinson a ma jority of 2,72'J in a total vote of 3,033. His majority is 157 greater than Northeu's majority iu 1SU2. The Populist vote was 141. Richmond, the leading county in the Tenth congressional district, will give a Democratic majority of 2,G00. TOM WATSON'S IilSTIlICT POPI LIST. If This is Ilepeated Next Month U Will he Fleeted. Savannah, Ga.. Oct. 4. Returns from the congressional district embracing Sa vannah, indicate 4,00o Democratic ma jority, a falling oft of l,2u0 in two years. The indications are that the Democratic majority in Congressman Turner's district will hold up well. The counties in Tom Watson's district show 500 Populist ma jority. If they repeat this next month he will be elected. It is a notable fact that the heaviest Democratic majorities are re turned from counties endorsing the ad ministration's financial views. The in dications are that the constitutional amendments increasing the number of supreme court judges to rive and increas ing pensions to confederate soldiers are lost. THIS IS CIVIL SERVICE. San Francisco Potttoflice Employes Asked to Contribute to Iem. Campaign Fund. San Francisco, Oct. 4. The Chroni cle says that all federal employes in San Francisco have received a circular letter from the Democratic campaign commit tee, stating that as officeholders, they are presumed to desire the perpetuation of the present administration, and that the Democratic ticket may be successful, each officeholder is requested to contrib ute two per cent of his yearly salary to the funds of the party. TO HELP THE TOOK. A German Plan to Keduce the Kxpenses of Rents for Poor People. Washington, Oct 4. The Berliners have a plan in practice according a re port to the state department of reducing the expenses of the poorer classes of working people that tends to destroy the evils of tenement house systems for midable in our own great cities aud en courage living in separate houses. The plan is simple, consisting in the applica tion of a graded tax upon the rental of houses. Where the annual rent does not exceed 200 marks there is no tax levied; on rentals from 200 to 400 marks the rate is 2 per cent; from 4 X) to 6 i0 marks 3 per cent; from 6J0 to 800 marks 4 per cent; from 8J0 to 1.00J marks five per cent. The house tax it self is uniform at 22-2U of tne total re ceipts or use value of the property. Tra.ee- Pleads (nilty. A. L.

He Rehearses His Part in the Play -The Weavers." New York, Oct. 4. Herr Most is soon to make his appearance in a play. The play is called "Die Weber," or in English, "The Weavers," and is by a no less fa mous playwright than Gerhard llaupt mann, the author of "Hannele." Most was j-esterday rehearsing his part with the other actors. It is a Socialist plav of the most radical sort The scene is laid in Silesia during the bread famine of 1846, and depicts a successful uprising of the starving weavers against the police and their employers. It is to be given one performance at the Thalia Oct and will be repeated in Newark, Brooklyn and perhaps in a few other cities. The role taken by Herr Most is that of Old Baument, an aged weaver who is in the thick of the uprising. When cos tumed for the part Most will ve;tra long gray beard and totter on a cane. Being ciad at yesterday's rehearsal in a plain suit of rusty black, with frock coat and a light slouch .hat, there was nothing in the appearance of the noted anarchist to suggest an aged weaver, nor did he see lit to simulate the bearing of an old mau. The rehearsal, which took place on the stage of the Thalia theatre, seemed to be held chiefly for the purpose of dis covering -just how many of their lines the players knew. It showed that there will have to be a good deal of studying during the next eight days. Herr Most was sadly deficient in his lines, which may account for his failure to roar as loudly aa he had been expected. W A R SCARE IS OVE R. Enjflisli Papers Xow L nanimous iu May ing Titere Was To Cause For It. London, Oct. 4. The English news papers have apparently recovered from the bad scare caused some of them by the hasty calling of a cabinet council. Yesterday the afternoon newspapers were seriousiy apprehensive of war with France. Now they are unanimous in ex pressing the opinion that there is not the slightest cause of anxiety as to a serious dispute with France, and it seems to be admitted that the cabinet council which meets today will not be called upon to decide anything more serious than pro tection of Britisu interests in China. The cabinet council will decide the question as to whether or not British troops will be sent immediately to treaty ports of China. The cabinet council met today. Moat of the ministers were present. Sir Will iam Harcourt, chancellor of the ex chequer, was present. It is aunouueed upon authority that the cabiuet council, after discussing the state of ailairs in China, decided to send troops to that country in order to protect Bi'itish interests. It is also probable that additional ships will be sent to strength en the fleet in Chinese waters under the command of Admiral Freemantle. It is also said that in consequence of tod ly's meeting of the cabinet, the Brit ish legation at Pekin, will shortly be guarded by British blue-jackets and na tive Indian soldiers. BLOCKADE OF MADAGASCAR. The Report Mas From a Misunderstand ing of French War Measures. Port Locis, Island of Mauritius, Oct. 4. The statement that a blockade of the Island of Madagascar had been de clared by France was brought here by steamer from Madagascar. The report appears to have beeu due to a miscon struction of the French measures taken to prevent the landing of arms aud am munition for the Hovaa. The Madagascar papers received here state that the French settlers have been warned by the French resident to repair to the coast iu view of possib'e hostili ties. The French bishop and the French missionaries, however, decline to leave the capital until the last moment AT TIIE GRAND. "By "Wits Outwitted" Will Be Presented on Friday ight. At the Grand Friday night the Ilen nessy Le Royl company will appear in a two nights' stand in "By Wits Outwit ted," which is described as the latest comedy success, This comedy is from the pen of the new dramatist, Edward Owings Towne. This piece is in three acts and is said to be a comedy of exceptional merit, bright aud witty in its lines, which, while dignified and clean, are at the same time excrutiatingly funny. The story ac quaints us with a private secretary who elopes with his millionaire employer's diughter, whom the parents desire to have wedded to another, a rich but ex ceedingly distasteful ex-slave trader. The plan of the elopement is carried out at the instigation of the girl's father, who fails to discover that his daughter ia to bo the heroine of the romance until all is over. The piece will contain several musical numbers. Oa Saturday night the same company will present another musical comedy, "Squabbles." Charles II. Yale's big company will produce the "Devil's Auction" at the Grand Monday night. He has many new attractions this year. "The Hustler" will be there on Fri day, the 12th. SUBMARINE ART1IQUAKE.

The schooner was lying off the coast becalmed. The sea was perfectly smooth, when suddenly a loud, rumbling noise was heard and the schooner commenced to pitch violently.

SILVER THE ISSUE. Ohio Democrats Issue anAtlilress to the Voters. Free Silver Alone Will Solve the 3Ioney Question. CAN'T COIN TOO MUCH. So Louir as We Have Gold Stand ard Prices Will Fall. Coi.umbls, Ohio, Oct. 4. The Demo cratic state executive committee, of which A. W. Thurman ia president and W. A. Taylor secretary, today issued an address to the voters of Ohio to the effect that tariff reform has won and that the money question is now the supreme issue before the country. The address con tains about y,400 words and is under stood to have been prepared by Mr. Thurman. It says among other things: First That money ia the standard by which the exchangeable value of all labor and the products of the same are determined. Second That no money standard ever has been nor ever can be a fixed and un varyiug measure. Third Business men must remember that money may be appreciated in value as well as depreciated. Fourth That when it appreciates, prices fall. When it depreciates, prices 1 rise. j Fifth. That the value of money itself is fixed by its exchangeable or purchas i ing power over other commodities and j this purchasing power of money is de termined wholly and solely by the pro j portion that the quantity of money in j circulation bears to other commodities. Sixth Now what is the demand for 1 money? It is the demand of all things I upon this one thing. I Seventh Now what is the supply? The supply is the creation solely of the government, as nothing ia money until the stamp of the government is placed upon it Prior to the demonetization of silver in 1873, gold and silver was the standard money. Since then it has been gold. Ihe supply was cut in two. Could any result other than the continuous fall in prices we have expe rienced for twentyyears follow the adop tion of Ahis policy? All business men have been looking for the cause of this continuous decline. All sorts of insuf- 1 ficient and contradictory causes are as signed. It is going. It is atfecting all industries in the gold standard countries. It has been going on progressively for a series of years. It does not and cannot arise from local, temporary or authorita- I tive cases. It must have- itsorigin aud de velopment in some principle of universal application. In silver countries prices have remained stable. In gold countries prices have fallen from 40 to 50 per cent. Silver is the standard of value of more than half of the world. The general decline iu prices has been brought about by the shrinkage in the volume of money relative to population and business. If the value of money in circulation be made to bear a direct and steady ratio to population and business, prices will be maintained at a steady level, and that is of supreme importance. Money will change but little in value. Eighth Every money commission which has been appointed bv different governments has said that beyoud any doubt during the last twenty years, gold has continually and steadily appreciated in value and that this appreciation has been the real cause of the tremendous fall in prices which has taken place in all values and the great financial dis turbances'we have seen in all gold using countries. Ninth Affirmes eighth as true. Tenth That there has been no over production of silver, because for 400 years prior to 1S'J3, the relative produc tion of gold and silver was not quite 15 of silver to 1 of gold and for the 2U years since 1873 it has not exceeded 10 to 1. Eleventh That the free coinage of silver does not mean any sudden infla tion and sudden disturbance of value. This is bo because it is an utter impos sibility to produce the precious metals faster than it can be absorbed for money purposes. The increase in population of the world during the last 25 years has beeu 200 millions. Twelfth That the gold standard was imposed and continues to be imposed upon the people of the United State by England. In speaking of this Senator Cameron, of Pennsylvania, said: "Yet the bankers of London have said that we must submit and we have submittest," Thirteenth There never has in the world been such a thing as international money and in all probability never will be. Fourteenth That there is not a single obligation of the United States tovern ment other than gold certificates that is not by explicit terms of the contract pay able in either gold or silver; and we de mand of the servants of the people that they administer the laws according to the terms of that contract. Who cau say this is not right?" Fifteenth That gold alone does not afford a suliicieut basis upon which our paper currency can safely rest Sixteenth The advocate of the single gold ataudard claim that only gold can make an honest dollar. According to them, then we have shown that gold has continually appreciated in value for twenty years, a dollar is only honest when it is increasing in purchasing power. Seventeenth Again the gold advocates say that one dollar must be as good as another, but they do not define what "goodness" means. Is not a just dollar a good dollar? Is not a dollar of unchang ing value a good dollar? In 1873, be fore silver was demonetized, this same gold dollar was worth 3 per cent less than the silver dollar; that samo silver dollar will purchase just as much of every other commodity now as it would prior to 1873. Eighteenth Free coinage is not an experiment, but so far as the single gold standard dollar has gone, it has been a most disastrous one. Nineteenth With the dollar appre ciating in value as it is now doine, there by causing a decrease in the pric of nil products, taxpayers are com pulled t- give more1 labor or the products of r.'ijr labor to obtain these dollar, the otilv thing with which they cau diicharge :1 state, county and municipal taxe, all of which are fixed charges. Therefore to decrease the price of products is to in crease taxes. Twentieth Continued falling markH must annihilate profits, without w i all industry must be paralyzed, caul' s money to accumulate iu money rout r-, where it is principally used by t who gamble in securities iustead of bein:' used in speculative enterprise k. "The gold supply of the worl 1 ha been substantially cornered." m; li,u:i Rothschild's speech at the monetary con ference at Brussels. Twenty-first If bushier men ran miiv be assured that prices had out-u touchr.l bottom and that even as low us they ar now, they would remain stenlv a. id stable in the future, then it inih- 1 possible for them to brin their I i upon a stable footing, for afior a gen' rl readjustment matters would go ai on;' as usual.

Wash-inciton', Oct. 4. For Kansas: To night and Friday fair, warmer; westerly winds. Does John W. Breidenthal really be lieve he can carry even the lower house of the legislature, now. With the prize fighters arrested and the moat flagrant disorderly house closed up, Topeka ia bsgiatung to get back to first principles agtiin. Since; Pete Kiine'a melancholy expe rience, perhaps it would be well to tack several placards on the etate house: "Beware of CunfiddncQ Men." The Republicans are congratulating themselves that General Artz hasn't flopped to their ranks. lie is still a Pop ulist, but is opposed to the stealing kind, he says. The governor may not be a boodler, but a man who doesn't know any better than to surround himself with boodlers, hasn't iateiligenco enough to hold the reins of Btate. Therb were cteer for Governor Mo Kinley ye-sterday, but the cheers would have been twice as loud and twice as numtroui if it had been bluff Tom PeeU Instead of the Ohio governor. Governor McKislkt was taken into Jerry Simpson's district to make his big pest speech because he was needed there. Jerry goes about on crutches, but Mc Kinley makes a pretty good crutch for Chester I. Long. jJow, if the I'o juliata can bring any man of their party to Topeka who can command a crowd of 12,000 people at 10 o'clock in the moraiag, let them do it. Even Gov. Tillman, about whom there ia much curionitr and interest, could scarcely get as mscy. The b'acklega, bunco eteerers and thimble rijjgers of Kansas City, Kansas, are supposed to be the worst in the west. But the king of thsni all was, according to his own story, confideaced by the state house fellows. This seems to be a "slam" on the Kansas City ''talent." Ootersor HcKiNLEv'i ideas on finance io not agree with those of many Repub licans ia Kansas. This difference of opinion between eiatern and western Re publicans is going to prove a great source of future 'rouble la the party perhaps as serious a troubis as the tariff question provel to the Democrats. If the eastern Republicans insist oi a single gold stand ard aud the western Republicans on free silver there can b but one outcome a split ia the party is disastrous as that in the Damocratlo party. Tom Reed holds out an olive branca to the west, however, which may result in a union of the two tranches of the p rty. In a petition from Osage county ask ing for a joint debate between Charles Curtis and S. M. Scott there are the names of forty-six Republicans. This is at least twenty-five per cent of the aaaies on the petition. Certainly the desiro of twenty-five per cent of the Republican party is worth considering. This par ticular petitioa was circulated by a Pop ulist, and' of course is scarcely a fair sample. The statement thit nobody but Populists want the joint det at is untrue. Wyandott Ka His, ouifht to sepa rate from Kansas City, Kansas. Wyan dotte is a high-toned, respectable, church going city like othr Kansas towns, but she is linked to the slum paciiiiig Louse district of Kansas City, which happens to extend over the Hue into Kansas. That low-down element really belongs to Kan sas City, Mo. Oaly an imaginary line segregates it. Kansas ought to give that "rotten borough" in the west bottoms to Missouri It is only an expense and nui sance to Kansas. County Attorney afford finally got started after the prize lighting law breakers, and it is to be hoped that that kind of lawlessness at least will be brought to an end. Mr. StiTord should have the moral support of the good peo ple of Topeka, who have about 100 votes to tbe plug-uglies' one. It pays to siand by the law and ordar people l etter than it does to give the lawbreaking element any favors. Mr. Caijjkrukad's will bo defeated if he doesn't come out and say where he stands on the silver question. It isn't the fact that Mr. Calderhead is a gold standard man that calls f or censure, but the fact that he dodges thu question. If he is honest why doesn't he say he is a gold standard maa and done with it? Deliver us from a dodger iu politics. A stock company has been formed to buiid an opera house at Melvern. The law ia so obnoxious at Arkansas Citv that it is called a "red eyed min ion!" At the last city election in Hays City more w?jien voted for the liquor ticket than against it. M.

The recording of 10,000 of chattel mortgages in Guage couuty is the first sign of election betting.

If his wife is like many women it is an even match. There is a restaurant at Alton called the Star and Garter, but the drum sticks of fried chicktn are still eaten ia the fingers, plaiu. Relltown, Osage county, has so many bachelors that people have to des'srnate them by Lumbers. The most desirable ar called A 1. The Republicans of Trego county don't believe that pride goeth before destruc tion. They have placed Mr. Peacock on the tail of the ticket Burlinganie has a bee-keepers' asso ciation and the members walk around among the bee hives in a careless way that would terrify anybody ele. The police court at Ft. .Scott took $1,132.40 last month to let saloous, gam bling houses aud other great moral agents build up the character of the city's youth. The Ft. .Scott street railway company has discharged all the conductors and the motornoers will henceforth have to twist their necks to see whether the pas sengers put the fare ia the box. A practical joker at Abilene issued wedding cards for a girl and sent them to her lrieuds "just to annoy her." If there is anything that will vex a girl it is to have anything like that turn out to be untrue. A great many people at Scranton are gathering wild grapes, which are plenti ful in that region, for wine and jelly.

They Attracted the Attention of the Big Crowd at the t i. t w House. There was a party of Washburn stu dents at the McKiuley meeting yester day. The president refused to excuse those who wished to attend, and they went anyway. They occupied a position near the cen ter of the crowd on the state bouse steps and with a yeil improvised for the occa sion made everyone in their vicinity look at them. When Gov. McKinley wus con ducted to the platform they cheered sev eral minutes. This is what they said, re peated many times: "Wa&hourn Repub licans yes you bet. we haven't gone back on 'em, no not yet.

"Cvello, Charley, how are you?" he said extending his hand. Martin took the band and replied that he was quite well, and glad to sea bim. "Well, coma on up the street. Jump in the hack, can't you?" Mr. Martin ieplied that Le was sorry, but other arrangements bad been made by which more disunguis had people, (Leland and Eriatow) were to occupy the hack.

"Alan that is born of woman is of a few days and full of trubble," sez I as I brung my aggregashun to a halt and thought to say sunthin to cheer his soul if he was a-wenry. "Waal, I dunno," eez he aa he looks up at me. "I hain'i got no pertickler trubble on hand jist now, and I'm thinkin to live as long as the rest of 'em. Ar" ye in the preachin line?" "Nay. I'm simply tryin to foller the golden rule and alleviate the eufferin's of my feller men. Integrity ar' the highway to success, and that's how I'm beaded." "I'm also alleviatin more or less," sez the man as bo smiles with the blandness of a nursin child. "As to which?" 6ez I. "As, fur instance, I've alleviated an ole kuss of his shanty and his claim over that hill. He wasn't to hum as I cbriv up, but I'm spectin him back every hour and hev got things ready fur him!" "As to how?" "As to bis grave, mostly. It's dug and waitin to receive him, and I shall pop him over as gently as I kin." "Yer heart seems to be sailin about in the milk of human kindness," f-ez I, know in that it was my claim he had jumped. "That's her," eez he, "but that milk of human kindness kinder yearns fur sunthin solid to iff words, I seek to mingle kindness and bizness.

"Does she begin with fireworks?" sez the man as I leveled a gun on him at a distance of six feet. "Not alius. She eumtimes begins with a performance by my eddecated hog Ham ulus, which the same ar' now rootin fur grub behind ye, but on this occashun I hev made a departur'. Ye war speakin about an ole kuas and a 6hanty und a grave. "Yes, I war speakin about that same, and durn me if I hain't bin flopped!" 'As to how?" "As to yer bain that same ole kuss!

The appearance of Wiil Wadsworth of Topeka, ia Otis Skinner's play "The King's Jester," at Chicago, ia not highly spoken of by the press of that city. The play was given a column in the Herald ami Tribune and was quite a dramatic event. The papers may have judged vonns Wadsworch harshly. Many a famous ac tor ha.8 done poorly in the first part he attempted. Nat Goodwin who is such a success in comody once essayed a Shakespearian ro'n and set the audience in convulsions. There may be a bright future for Mr. Wads worth in spite of the Chicago critic. In "The King's Jester" lie appeared as I)s Cosse. The Herald says: "It would seem, however, that som ere it automata might Le secured able to represent the charac ters Marat and De Crosse with a more convincing appearance of life and anima tion than Hamilton Bradshaw and V.

In the firit parlor one corner was banked high with paluia and here, under a canopy of smilax, the wed ding party stood. Rev. L. B.aneiley re peated the service of the .Episcopal ritual. The bride looked beautiful in a gown of ivory white satin who3e elegaut sim plicity suited her admirably. The high bodice was severely plain, with no trim ming save a yoke embroidered in pearls. The train was sqaare and a long tulle veil was faateued iu ttie hair with pearl pina She carried a cluster of bridal roses. Jiiss Gieuaa Cros, as maid of honor, wore white chiilou over white silk. The neck waS'linishel with a high collar, and the sleeves ulled to the el bow. Her gloves were iocg ones of white suede and she carried perle roses. Mrs. Arthur Capper presiied at the piano and played the wedding m.trch from Lohengrits. She wore her wedliug dress of wiiite crepe de c:nna iu the Empire style. Mr. Louis Smith, brother of the bride acted as best man. The par lors were simply decorated with palms and white roses, and refreshments were served in Mrs. Wm. MuoIIes parlors; carpets were spread across the lawn and the guests were served at small tables iu charge of Miss Mabel Knovvies, Grace Vanllouten, Xellia Small nnd Grace Weiss. Mrs. Smith, in a handsome black batin gown trimmed with ducheose lace, was assisted iu receiving by Mrs. Geo. W. Crane iu black and white satin with jet trimming, and, Mrs. Silas Rain who wore black velvet combining with mauve satin. The wediiug gifts were excep tionally beautiful.

In view of the fact that Ebenezer Wil son was not present at the regular monthly meeting of the Potwin city council last Monday evening it was found necessary to adjourn the meeting until Wednesday. At the meeting last evening Mayor Forbes was in the chair and City Clerk Miller held the pencil. Councilman Parkhurst, Hamilton. Ogilby and Bjoth were present. Couocilmen Griffith and Ebenezer were absent. A report of the marshal was demanded to show why Mr. Wilson had not been notified aud as it was satisfactory the council proceeded to struggle along without him. The session was not a long one, how ever, and did not last later than 9 o'clock. The Topeka Water company desired the settlement of its bill of $43.15 for the iron pipe used in repairing the Auburn dale sewer, aud the council ordered it so. E. P. Ewart sold the city some lumber on time, and he too wanted his 30.43, and the city clerk was ordered to fix it so he could have it. C. L. Vanderpool owned some lots in Potwin, and he appeared in a lengthy petition last evening to declare that he had been erroneously taxed 55 cents for sidewalk built in front of them. The council was very nice about the matter, and Mr. Vanderpool will get his 55 cents. City Clerk Miller thought his services as tax collector were worth $12.40 and the council let him have it. Potwin has not needed a police judge for a long time so no attention was paid to the matter when Wm. Henderson, who was elected last spring, did not formally qualify. It was suddenly discovered a few weeks ago that the city had no po lice judge and the mayor was asked to appoint one. Mr. Henderson signified his willingness.to accept the honor and the mayor appointed him. The council confirmed the appointment last night. There will be no meeting of the coun cil until the regular monthly one on Monday evening, November 5. HE SUED THE POLICE. James Beed Sued Officer Daggr For $5,000 Damages, aud Got $0. A farce comedy was enacted in the district court this morning. James Reed, a colored young man whose nose is bad ly disfigured by some disorder, was suing Sergeant Henry Steele aud Police man John Dagg for $5,OJO each for dam age to his reputation. The jury, after being out four minutes, returned a ver dict for the defendants. Reed had been arrested with a woman named Mary Marshall for being in a dis orderly house. They were arrested on that charge in order to hold them on another. A highway robbery had been committed, and there were reasons for tupposing that Reed and the Marshall woman were the guilty parties. The police were unable to get the evidence tuey needed to convict them of the robbery, so they were discharged. Reed then sued the officers for $5,000 "damages to his reputation, character, standing in the community, and to his health." F. G. Hentig "handled" the case. Judge Hazen in his instructions to the jury laid much stress on the fact that a police otiicer must be allowed con siderable latitude in dealing with such criminal classes. CONVICTIONS 36.

John Swinton, the well known friend of the working man who ia spoken of as the Populist candidate for mayor of New York, said last night at a meeting of Populists in his characteristic style, that New York ia the most despicable city iu the world. "Why is it," said he, "that this city has always had a bad reputation so far as the progress of liuerty aud rights of meu are concerned? In the Revolutionary war it was the last city to be cleared of the Tories; in the civil war it was the hot bed of secession, and in the present great conflict for the emancipation of labor aud the recognition of the rights of men it is a thousand years behind Paris and tea thousand years behind London. San Francisco, Chicago, in fact every city of the United States is at least one hundred years in advance of New York, with the single exception of Philadelphia. "It seems to me," continued Mr. Swin ton, "that it is the fate of New York to be inhabited by a tribe of sneaks, cow ards and traitors. I wish we hai some great leader- to bring it up to the level say of Madrid or Copenhagen. What we wiw believe in human emancipation need ia a leader' for our cause like Dr. Park hurst. Why is it that there are but 200 people here tonight, while Dr. Parkhurst crowds any hall in which he speaKs to its utmost capacity. "There is more misery in New York tonight than in any city on the globe. Why do not the people rise? We have as our president a fat butcher. No butchery by any imperial leader was ever greater or more brutal than that which Grover Cleveland caused to be done by national troops in Indiana and Illinois. Why do not the people vote themselves out of purgatory? 1 say to night to oppressed and downtrodden hu manity in this country, 'V.ite yourselves the plunder of the Vanderbilts and the Goulds.' "Ah! you think this is too radical, do you? Well I say to you that you are but halfbreed Populists. You are tainted with the dry rot of this shameless, inhu mane city of New York. "Are the workiagmea crazy? It would seem so with the power of voting them selves anything and everything in the world. I suppose they will walk to the polls as usual and vote to continue in a slavery that is worse than death. God help them this winter, for it is going to be one of awful distress." MRS. OELRICIIS' LEGACY. Will Have to Wait for Her Half Million Till a Suit is Settled. Sax Francisco, Oct. 4. Mrs. Herman Oelricha may be obliged to wait some time for the million and half legacy to receive and receipt for which she came hither from New York two days ago. The delay in the payment of her share in the four million dollar estate left by her mother, Mrs. Theresa Fair, is due to the fight now being made in the courts by Charl9 I. Fair, the surviving son. He claims the legacy of his dead brother Jatnea. By the terms of the mother's will each son was to receive $500,000. James when 35 and Charles when he had attained 30 years. It was provided that in case either brother died without a wife or children his Bhare should go to the survivor. If both broth ers died wifeless and childless their leg acies were to go to the sisters, Mrs. Oel richs and Miss Virginia Fair. Charles claims that his marriage a year ago altered the case and makes his brother's share payable to him now in stead of five years hence. The sisters coutest this point, desiring it is said to receive the interest on the half million for five years themselves. Charles will receive his own legacy in two years. The family litigation has tied up the entire estate. BYEIIS IS INSANE. The Pittsburg Millionaire Is Formally De clared So by Physicians. Pittsbcko, Oct. 4. Ebenezer Byers, the wealthy iron merchant of Pittsburg, was today declared a lunatic. His wife, who has spent the last two years search ing for and trying to regain possession of her husband, whom she alleged was be ing kept from her by his brother, A. M. Byers, asked for the inquest into her husband's sanity. Physicians from the Pennsylvania hos pital for the insane where Byers is now under treatment, and from Kirkbridge, Philadelphia, testified that Byers had no lucid intervals and that his mental re covery was impossible. It was stated that the lunatic's interest in the firm of A. M. Byers Co. was worth over $200, 000. No statement was made of the other property he possessed. Mrs. Byers will now go into court and ask that she be made trustee of her husband's person and property. KUTII CLEVELAND'S PARTY It is in Honor of Her ISirthday for Her Tattle Friends.

For weeks the judge had been telling of a pond he knew where pick erel weighed 12 pounds and were to be had for the asking. The colonel listened patiently for a time and then said ha'd go, partly because he wanted to shut out the judge's stories and partly because he need ed a day off. They packed their rods and other para phernalia and started on an early train for tho pond. All tho way out the judge talked of nothing but the great fish that were waiting to be caught, and before they arrived at their destination the colonel had caught some of the judge's enthusi asm and was as anxious to get to work as the judge himself. They got a boot, and the judge, who Is somewhat of an athlete, Baid ho would do tho rowing. at first. Tho colonel put out two lines, one over tho etcrn and the other from a polo. Tho judge rowed slowly around the pond, which is not more than a mile long and a quarter of a mile broad, and the colonel attended assiduously to the lines. He didn't get a rise. After the first cir cuit had been made the colonel 6aid, "Seems to me that those pickerel I have heard you mention are taking a day off." "Never you mind," protested the judge. "You can't expect to catch fish in a min ute. It takes patience to get pickerel. Now, to show you that I am in earnest in this thing, I will row you round again, and I'll bet you'll have a fish before you get back." The judge pulled slowly along, and the colonel sat in the stern and puffed moodi ly on his pipe. They went half way round without a strike. "Huh," said the colo nel, "we might just as well be fishing in tho middle of an asphalt pavement." The judge did not deign to reply. Ho yanked viciously at the oars a couple of times and then fell into his stroke aain, and there was silence for five minutes. Then the reel on the pole gave a click and a whir-r-r-r, and the colonel made a grab for it, stopped it and began reeling in for dear life. The lino stretched far back among the rushes near the shore. "Pull him in!" yelled the judge. Tho colonel was red in tho face by this time. Ho tugged and hauled and tried to wind up the reel. "I can't budge him," he gasped. The judge came back and grabbed the pole. He tugged and hauled too. Noth ing moved. "I jocks," said the judge, "that onu weighs 50 pounds." Then they both got hold tofrether. The Btrike had been a good one, for the hook held. They heard a tremendous splashing In the high weeds. ''We're getting him, yelled the judge. "Keep a-pulling." The splashing in the rushes grew loud er. The two men pulltd on that pole as if they were taking in an anchor. "He's coming, gasped the colonel. "It'll be the biggest pickerel ever caught In the state," said the judge, giving a tre mendous yank at the line. Then out of the rushes burst a mild eyed cow, with the hook fast in one of her legs. And the colonel and the judgo loft the boat where it was and waded ashore. Buffalo Express. Bub's Special Hat. A few days since a woman entered a certain hat store. She had in tow n boy of about 10 years of age that is, his body was 10 years old, but his face looked like a man of 30. "I want a cheap hat for this boy. I don't care what It is so long as it is cheap." Tho hatter pulled over his 6tock and finally presented to tho woman a hat worth about 50 cents. "I guess this will Eatisfy you," ho said. "It is 50 cents." "All right; I'll take It. I wanted some thing cheap for the boy to have fits in," and then she went out. Syracuse Post. A Depressed 3Iarket.
