' A, ,a "Why. nr. Italy has such a navy that if she 30 ch se she could station her vessels four miles from land and ruin your coast cities. Italy has ISO or more vessels of war. You see what she could do." SATISFACTION DE2IANDED. Iunlhrarnt for the Blob and Money for the Widows the Cry of Chicago Italians. CniCAGO, March 16. The excitement and Indignation aroused by the slaying of the Kew Orleans suspects" seems to increase rather than dimmish among the Italians of the city. In the Italian quarter to-day little groups of men have been gathered all day long, and the expressions of opinion have been anything but mild. The committee appointed last night to tat charge of the matter of expressing local sentiment has decided to call a mass-meeting at Bat tery D. ..The demands for satisfaction, aa formulated by the Italians in charge of the local movement, are: ' Money reparation for the families of the victims, and that the ringleaders of the mob betaken to Washington and tried for the crime. It is the intention to demand that the State and city' officials nnder whose rule the affair occurred be held responsible and be punished with those who actually participated in the killing. " L'ltalia. the local Italian paper, issued an extra edition to-day, which was largely devoted to editorials denouncing the perpetrators of the New Orleans affair and calling for retribution. Among other bitter things it said: "To-day the citizens of New Orleans are consigned to infamy eternal infamy by ail the world, and they will be compelled to give satisfaction for this assassination. The hideous i-rime that to-day stains the city of New Oileans will take more than all the waters of the Mississippi to wash away. A curse upon the people of Louisiana, and may they and their descendants sailer a thousand deaths a&d a thousand times feel the sorrow tint to-day ailiicts the widowed wives, their sisters and their children. Unworthy government of a still more unworthy municipality, unworthy chief of police and Governor all those mixed up in this affair have covered with opprobrium the places where justice is supposed to be adm in i stored." At the weekly meeting of the Methodist Ministers' Afisociation to-day resolutions were introduced deprecating the tardiness of justice in New Orleans and other cities, yet declaring lynch law "utterly abhorrent to the spirit of our government and of Anglo-Saxon jurisprudence;" expressing a fear as to the result of such lawlessness as that exhibited at New Orleans on the bodypolitic, and condemning "every irregular form of metine out justice." The resolutions caused a heated discussion, in which widely-diverging views were expressed. The Kcv. Frank Bristol thought it a shame that ministers should hesitate to "take a bold stand on such a question. Od the other hand, the Kev. Dr. Bland was strenuously opposed to the passage of the resolution, and went so far as to say: "When the law will not take caro of a lot of murderers it is time the pecple did something." The matter was finally referred to a committee to report at the next meeting. Expressions or the New York Colony. New York, March 16. The Italians of this city are very much excited over the New Orleans tragedy. One of the riost

prociment among them said: "Ihe Italians look at this matter in this light: Their countrymen were tried by a jury in an American court. The ' American jury brought in a verdict of not guilty. . The American people do not stand by tho Iwd of their country, but take justice into their own hands and murder these men. Of course, this'offends the Italian populace. But you can say in your paper, and I know that it is so. that no New York Italian believes in any such secret society as the .Matia. They condemn it as much as the native-born Americans. We simply intend to make an earnest protest against the wholesale butchery of our countrymen. We are always hearing about the bloodthirsty Italian, but the American citizens of New Orleans in shooting men, stringing them up to lamp-posts, and making sieves of the bodies have rendered themselves fuilty of such atrocities as no body of talians has ever committed." General Kiva, the Italian consul in this city, declined to be interviewed concerning the trouble. He, however, announced through the vice-consul, as the representative of the Italian government, that he greatly regretted tho unfortunate occurrence in the .South. He was unable to state what action his government would take, Lor was 1 o informed as to any possible action which might be taken by the Italian colonists of Now York.- Cases of this kind have been very few, and the consul-general was unable to recall what had been done under similar circumstances in the past. The big Italian indignation meeting will probably be held on Wednesday evening at Tammany Hall. - In the meantime all festivities will be abandoned. L'Eco Italia publishes a telegram from Palermo, Sicily, to-day, which stated that in that city, indignation was growing over the New Orleans tragedy. It is the only subject talked of, and the American residents have migrated over to Italy and the south of France. Telegrams cxpressivo of the indignation of the Italian colonies throughout America continue to be received by M. Barsotti at the office of the Progresso. A large number were received to-day from all parts of the country, and the following are indices of their contents: Birmingham, Ala. Italian colony indignant,' Local press and most of the Amer icans are sincerely against the New Orleans mob. Providence, R. I. Italian colony indignant over tho infamous massacre in New Orleans and protest energetically in the name of Italy and humanity. Mobile, Ala. Italian colony violently indignant at the atrocious butchery of innocents. New Orleans Colony terrorized but calm. American press partially approve and partially blame the action of the population. Energetio measures taken by liudini much prized. Milwaukee. Wis. Italian colony is very indignant over the cowardly butchery in New Orleans of our innocent brothers. The local press call thia worthy only of a nation not civilized. Galveston Italian colony very sorry for the New Orleans tragedy. bcranton. Pa. Colony is very indignant Is preparing meeting to protest against wrongful action against our compatriots. Opposed to Agitating; the Subject. ST.Louis,Mirch lft, Mr. Domenieo Ginocchio, the Italian consul here,?says that ois countrymen in St Louis will take no iction as a bedy in regard to the killing at Saw Orleans. While they deplore the terrible aSair and consider the mob as bad as tho men they killed, supposing the prisoners were guilty, they do not believe that any good will come from a publio meeting hero or a publio denunciatian of the crime. Mr. uinocchio was seen in company with several other prominent Italians this morale g. and they all seemed to think that the best thing was to drop the matter and let the excitement over it subside. Remonstrances from Omaha. Omaha. Neb., March 10. The members of the Jtalian society Del Ceniso Allena held a meeting here to-day and passed resolutions condemning the New Orleans lynching, i.nd telegram of remonstrance were sent to New York, New Orleans and Denver. The society claims to be antagonistic to the Matia, cltkousa there are many Ital

ians in Omaha who sympathize with the Hennessy murderers, and only last week sent over S-iuO to the accused. FEELING IN ITALY. Dl Itodini's Statement to the Deputies Fiery Utterances of the Newspaper. Rome, March 16. In the Chamber of Deputies, to-day,' the Marquis Di Rudini, the Italian Premier, replying to a question on the subject of tbNew Orleans tragedy, 6aid that President Harrison had recognized the right of Italians in the United States to protection from the authorities, and that he had expressed profound regret at the occurrence, and had charged the Governor of Louisiana to guard the Italian residents of Now Orleans and to bring the assassins to justice. The Premier added that the Hon. A. G. Porter.' the United States minister here, had called upon him to-day in order to convey President Harrison's regrets to the Italian government Mr. 1'orier said that he trusted that the explanations he had furnished would draw e?en closer the iriendly relations existing between Italy and the United States. Signor Hregaiize, who had announced his intention of interpellating the government on the New Orleans matter, said that note had been taken of the minister's statement. Signor Ferrais urged that indemnities should be demanded for the families of tho victim. Tno Ponolo Romano, to-day, referring to tho New Orleans tragedy, says: "Relying on the foreaiht of the American authorities and out of regard for a sincerely friendly power, Italy has refrained -from sending an iron-clad to the mouth of the Mississippi." v The C&pitan Fracussa says: "The weak in America are at the mercy of a ferocious, blood populace and are tortured and murdered in daylight." The Don Chisciotte Delia Manca remarks that "Italy ought to demand that instant measures be taken to protect the Italian colon' in New Orleans," adding, however, "It is just also to recognize the fact that similar incidents would not occur if tho towns on the Atlantio littoral were not infested with the ex-galley slaves of Europe' The government will take no further action in respect to the massacre of Italian subjects at New Orleans until word has been received from the American government as to its course. The popular feeling on the subject in Rome and other cities has not abated, and the demand for action is lond and imperative. The news has the effect, for the time, of stemming , the cui-' rent of partisan animosity, which has been running very high, both in the Chamber of Deputies and outside, and all parties appear united for the time being in indignation against America. This is considered a disquieting symptom, as the Rudini Cabinet may go any length to please the popular sentiment. It is slated that orders were triven to-day to suspend the directions previously given for diminishing the active force of the navy. The Baron Di iiroccheti, naval attache at Paris, says that the Italian navy is now one of the tinest in the world, and could easily block entrance to the Mediterranean to any power except France or England, while sending swiftsailing crnisers to every ocean to prey on the commerce of an enemy. As to the Italian commerce, it is largely coniined to the Mediterranean. The Diritto says: "It is the ne plus ultra of cynicism for the people of New Orleans to attempt to justify their action by boasting that the lynchers wore headed by leading citizens. Even if the Italians concerned were the dregs of the Italian colony, the leading citizens had no right to massacre them.' The Riforma says: " We perceive that it will be difficult to obtain justice. Vet justice must be obtained. Elements hostile to Italy above all the Irish elementmade the murder of Chief Hennessy a pretext to paralyze publio opinion, which was veering in favor of the Italians." - What Our British Cousins Say. London, March 16, The Star, this evening, is of the opinion that "the impressive feature of the New Orleans affair was the perfect orderliness maintained throughout the proceedings. Here the champions of law and order stand aghast at such proceedings. The American democracy has sounder notions as to what law and order really mean." Mr. Moreton Frewen, a son-in-law of the late Mr. Leonard Jerome, has written a letter, which is published in the Pall Mall Gazette to-day, defending the action of the citizens of New Orleans as "a straightening out of the Italian question once for all," and he adds that he leaves "the old women of both sexes to moralize over the so-called excess of blood-stained populace, etc." Mr. Moreton Frewen commends the action "of the men of Louisiana, who are not spoiled by the spirit of submission to" the letter of the law, which has done so much to emasculate the human race." The Pall' Mall Gazette, in reply, generally criticises Mr. Moreton Fre wen's letter, but holds that the English people ought not to hold up their hands in righteous horror, adding: "One branch of the Anglo-Saxon race does not differ from another in this matter. The citizens of New Orleans, finding that the jury did not do its duty, said, 'We must by one means or by another put crime down.'" The St. James Gazette, referring to the same subject, says: "The incident shows that native Americans have not lost the quality of stern resolution which is sometimes dissolved by a life of comfort and luxury in modern society. The men who organized this defiance of formal justice are not ashamed of what they have done. They have defeated a society of foreign ruffians who were trying to terrorize a whole city. It is doubtful whether John Bull has enough grit left in him to protest in as emphatic a manner as the citizens of New Orleans have done."

THREATS OF A BOULANGIST

If Emperor William Had Visited Paris kfle Would Ilave Been Killed. Fiery Utterances of Paul fleronlede Ilealy Opens His Batteries on Paruell and Mrs. O'Shea Again Spain's Reciprocity Offer, nEALT'S PEPPERY TONGUE. It Is Again Turned on Parnell and Ills Affair with Mrs. O'Shea. Dublin, March 16. Mr. Timothy Healy, during the course of his speech at Newry yesterday, said that when Mr. Parnell was wanted at the Tenants' Defense League meetings ho had always a bad cold. The air of Dublin did not agree with him, but the seaside air of Brighton did. The decree of divorce granted to Captain O'Shea had afflicted Mr. Parnell with political ophthalmia, but the most revolting thing in the whole business was that Mr. Parnell seemed to think that they were all fools. He could not but remember the difference between Mr. Parnell, the untainted leader, and the Mr. Parnell of 1891. Referring to Mr. Parnell's "pretended sympathy" for the workingnien, Mr. Ilealy said that it would be remembered that during the dock strike, epeaking to the late Mr. Biggar, who first pointed out to him the mislortnne Mr. Parnell was trying -to bring on Ireland, Mr. Biggar said that he had written twice to Mr. Parnell, urging him to make a donation towards the strike fund. Mr. Parnell did not answer these communications, and this caused Mr. Biggar to remurk: "I wonder what Mr. Parnell's real politics are." As far back as 1SS1 Mr. Biggar wrote to Mr. Parnell, remonstrating with him in regard to his conduct with Mrs. O'Shea. The National Press, the MoCarthyite organ, to-day says that "triumph after triumph was scored by the Nationalists yesterday throughout the country. The voice of the nation is becoming heard and it is interesting to watch the daily increasing intensity of the Parnellite assaults upon the bishops." At a largely attended meeting at Mitchelttown, this county, yesterday, many priests being present, the opinion was generally expressed that Mr. Parnell would be politically dead six months from now. A BOLD BOULANGIST. What M. Deroulede and Hit Kind Would Do if the Kaiser Should Tlslt Paris. Paris, March 16. The continued sojourn of General Boulanger at Brussels puzzles the quidnuncs. On this subject M.Paul Deroulede, who may be considered the file leader of the moribund Boulangist party, said, to-day: "It is true that I went to Brussels the other day, but it was to see Rochefort. General Boulanger had not reached the Belgian capital when I was there, and Kochefort left before his arrival. "Here is a letter from Kochefort," said M. Deroulede as he drew from his pocket a note from the exiled editor of the Iutransigeant, "in which he states he has neither seen nor heard from General Boulanger for three months. So you see how idle is all this talk about Boulangists plofting at Brussels over the critical situation created by the recent visit of the Empress. Nor is the German Emperor after war. He is not ready yet. llis renewed severe treatment of Alsace-Lorraine is directed against us Boulajigists, and not in order to provoke France to war. He wishes to weaken my influence in Paris. He knows that his army is not yet completely furnished with thenewrilles nor familiar with the handling of them. He sees Italy falling away from the triple alliance and Russia threatening him as never before on the north. And at home he has to deal with Bismarck and the Socialists. So he will not run into waryut. His recent attempt to make up with us was simply to gain time. He sent his mother on hero to smooth the way for his own coming. But I and my friends could never have endured his presence in Paris. In fact, we swore that if he came be should never leave this city alive. But he will not como now. He sees by the reception given his mother, which was dignified but decided, that he could not come. So we have saved Paris this indignity of having to open its gates to the grandson of William and the son of Frederick, who trod our streets as a conqueror." GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Terms of the Proposed Reciprocity Treaty Between Spain and the United States. Paris, Maroh 16. The Temps to-day publishes a dispatch from its Madrid correspondent saying that the Spanish Cabinet's project of reciprocity with the United States contemplates admitting into the Spanish Antilles United States industrial and agricultural products at lower1 rates than those of any other nation, in exchange for the admittance into the United States, free of duty, of sugar and molasses from the Antilles. A lowered tariff on tobaccos imported from the same islands into the United States is also asked for in return for the privilege Spain proposes to grant. The text of the proposals, according to the Temps correspondent, is kept a secret for fear of the resistance which its publication would bring about upon the part of protectionists. American Arrested for a Spy. London, March 16. An American named Moore was recently arrested by the Portuguese, on the Zambezi river, on the charge of being an English spy. Moore was'' formerly connected with the British South African. Company, but lately engaged in private business. Being unable to show American papers of citizenship he was imprisoned in a tent where he was kept for eight days, being obliged to lie on the rock fioor without bedding of any kind. Then he was charged with inciting the natives to disorder, and was sent to Mozambique escorted by three guards. On the way he was compelled to hire boats at Zombo. for which he had to pay 20,000 reis. Moore loses valuable mineral rights in Mashonaland, and his health has been broken by the hardships to which he has been subjected. Last of the Jackson Abduction Case. London, March 16. Her Majesty's high court of justice. Queen's Bench division, to-day refused to grant a writ of habeas corpus to compel Mr. E. H. Jackson, of Clitheroe, to produce his wife in court. The court held that if the woman was illtreated she had a remedy in an application for protection, which she could make before a magistrate. Mr. Jackson, it will be remembered, on March 8 abducted his wife, a wealthy lady in her own right, as she was leaving a church at Clitheroe, near Manchester, placed her in a carriage and drove to a house at Blackburu, where, after barricading the doors and windows, with the assistance of several friends, he withstood a regular siege and threatened assault upon the place by a mob headed by some of Mrs. Jackson's relatives, who were opposed to her husband's action. The Kaiaer Rewards a Friend. London. March 16. The Kaiser has shown the deep interest he feels in the naval appropriations by a fine presentation to Herr von Kosoielski, a Polish member of the Reichstag, who, in the naval committee, zealously and unsuccessfully advocated the grant of the first installment for three large new iron-clads demanded by the government. The Kaiser's gift is a splendid picture, representing the tleet of the Great Elector, the first liohenzollern who ventured to undertake colonial enterprises. The dedication reads: "To Herr von Koscielski. in remembrance of his manly attitnde in favor of my navy, by a grateful Emperoi and King." The EnglUh Gambling Scandal. London, March 10. The trial of the baccarat case will probably be of short duration. Sir William George Cummings refuses to accept retractions, and will not be content until a jury has heard his case and he has denied the charges on oath. But it is stated that, acting in consonance with the wish of the Prince of Wales, there will be no cross-examination and no attempt to

pro.ve the allegations; that an ample apology will be tendered in court, and that the jury will simply assess the damages which Sir Witfjam Gordon Cummings sees fit to accept. . - One Hundred Dervishes Killed by an Explosion.

ANOTHER TRAGEDY AT CINCINNATI An Ex-Police Commissioner Confesses to the Accidental Killing of a Saloon-Keeper. Cincinnati, March 10. Fred B. Woods, a saloon-keeper, and proprietor of the Knopp Union Shooting Park, was shot and killed in his saloon Sunday night. Late this afternoon a sensation was caused by the appearance of Mr. Will A. Stevens, of the well-known dry-goods firm of Weatherby, Stevens & Co., at the office of the superintendent of police, accompanied by his attorney. Judge M. F. Wilson, where he made the voluntary statement that he fired the shot which killed Mr. Woods. By the advice of his attorney he refused to Bay anythingfurtherthan that the shooting was accidental. It is said that there has been an effort to cover up the facts, but that it bds been discovered that Stevens has been in the habit of visiting the place with a Mrs. Armstrong, a niece sf Woods; that they were therejast night near midnight. and 'Stevens, in the presence of Woods, was showing a new self-cocking pistol. Suddenly there was a report and Woods soon afterwards exclaimed: I am shot." He refused to tell who shot him. Stevens and the woman drove into the city, and until he voluntarily made his statement to the superintendent of police, it was not known who fired the fatal shot. There is nothing known of relations of the two men to justify a suspicion that the tragedy had any other cause than accident, and if there had been no attempt at concealment the sensation would have been less profound. Mr. Stevens is manager of the establishment with which he is connected, and not long ago served as one of the police commissioners of Cincinnati. STORY OF THE MURDER RETOLD. , (Concluded from First Page.) nessy as he was a man of too great wealth to risk interference witn such affairs, although he was something of a politician. The murder of Chief Henneesy, he has no doubt, was due to the old detective feud which for years was a main issue in local politics. It was simply a quarrel over the spoils which were richer, perhaps, than ever before. " The Mafia in San Francisco. San Francisco, Cal., March 1C About a dozen years ago a Matia society flourished in Sau Francisco. Me in Dors of the gang terrorized their countrymen and others exactly as the Chinese highbinders have been doing more recently. They robbed and murdered, and had tie entire Italian community in a state of terror. At length a robbery was committed which led to the arrest of half a dozen men, and one named Meli was convicted and sent to the State prison for six years. Three others were sentenced for shorter terms. Meli, after serving his time, was extradited for a murder he had committed in Sicily. This broke up the society in this city. DETECTIVE O'MAIXEY. Leaf from the Record of the Man Who Is Said to Be Responsible for the Lynching. Cleveland, O., March 1C The wholesale lynching of Italians in New Orleans has given to Dominick O'Malley, the private detective aud alleged jury fixer, national notoriety. During his life in this city he was well known to the police. His sister and brother-in-law, named Davis, own a saloon on River street. A patrolman told a reporter to-day that he recollected placing O'Maliey and Davis nnder arrest for fighting about a year before Dominick left the city, in 1878. The following entry is taken from the police record of Feb. 1. 1875: i Petit Larceny Dominick O'Malley was fined $20 and costs; committed till paid, and sent up for thirty days. O'Malley was in Clevelandduringthe latter part of last December, and he had some S articular business with ex-Congressman lartin A. Foran. "O'Malley came to me' said Mr. Foran, "and anked if I did not remember bis arrest and trial, when I was police prosecutor, on a charge of stealing iron, and his being sent to the work-house, aud being brought back afterwards when it was developed that he and a companion had gone out onjtbe lake in a sail-boat putting in the iron for ballast, the boat afterwards being wrecked and the iron left on the beach. 1 did remember that abont that time two young fellows had taken a boat without leave, and, rowing out east along the shore, had landed at a vineyard and had been caught stealing grapes. 1 asked him if he bad raided a vineyard on that trip, and he eagerly responded that he had. I looked up the record and found that he had been arrested for stealing iron on Jan. 27, 1S75, and had been fined and sent to the work-house. I found no mention of any explanation involving a boat. I wrote a note to Superintendent of the Work-house I'attersouand aakedbiui to let me have a transcript from his records regarding the case. He did so, and this showed that O'Malley stayed at the work-bouse from the 1st of April until tho latter part of June, having worked out his fine and costs. Soon after I wrote a letter to O'Malley stating that I was afraid his recollection did not serve him well, as there

was the record of anything but his speedy liberation from the work-house at the time the iron was stolen, and that as the arrest occurred in January he could neithei have gone far on the lake with row-boat nor raided vineyards with great success. 1 have not heard from him directly since.'1 CONFESSED TO POISONING A FASIILT.

Mrs. Wigginton Makes a Confession, and Her Sons Admit Their Guilt. Louisville. Ky., March 16. Mrs. Wigginton, wh"se son is charged with the fatal poisoning of the family of Wra. Ferguson, near Mount Sterling, Ky about two weeks ago.has made a confession and the son has admitted his guilt. On Saturday night a mob went to the house where Mrs. Wigginton was, took her out, and, placing a rope around her neck, threatened tohangher unless she told all she knew about the matter. She did so yesterday afternoon. She says that Charley W'igginton came fromWm. Ferguson's house on Wednesday evening, before the deed was committed, very mad at Watts because he would not give him some money.

When Charley was told that the old woman had made a clean confession he stoutly denied everything till she was brought to the jail, when be finally made the same confession that she had. ANOTHER WAR TCG WRECKED. The Trlana Blown Ashore While Going to the iiescue of the Galena and Nina. Washington, Maroh 16. A number of telegrams have been received at the Navy Department to-day in regard to the condition of the United States steamer Galena and the tugs Nina and Triana and the efforts being made to save them from destruction. From these it appears that the Galena and Nina are ashore about a mile from Gayhead and the Triana is aground at Cuttyhunk. The Galena has lost heir rudder and rudder-post and part of her keel. The Nina is entirely out of water, and is thought to be only slightly damaged. Lieutenant-commander Bickuell reports that the Nina can be saved and that the Galena may possibly be floated again. "The Triana went aground Sunday morning at 3 o'clock. She was on her way to Gayhead with supplies for the officers and crews of the other vessels. A telegram was received this morning from Lieutenant-commander Lyon, in command of the Triana, saving that bhe can be floated v if proper means are promptly employed. The officers and crew were still on the vessel when this telegram was sent. Lieutenant-commander Lyon was executive officer of the Trenton when she was wrecked at Samoa. Assistant Secri'tary Soley, who is now acting as Secretary of the Navy, said this .morning that a court of inquiry will be appointed to investigate all the circumstances attending the accidents to the three vessels, with a view of placing the responsibility therefor and determining the necessity for a general court-martial. It is stated at the Navy Department that the Galena was ordered from the New York yard to the Portsmouth yard lor repairs, for the reason that the latter yard possesses better facilities for the repairing of wooden vessels. A dispatch from Now Bedford. Mass., says the revenue cutters Dexter, of Newport, and Gallatin, of Boston, arriv ed in that harbor at 11 o'clock this morning. The Dexter had on board the officers and crew of the Triana, wrecked on Cnttyhunk. The Dexter left Newport at 5 o'clock this morning for Gayhead to render what assistance was possi-' ble. She arrived at Cuttyhunk at 8:15 o'clock. She reported a heavy sea and a strong southwest wind. The waves were breaking with terrible force over the Triana, and it was apparent that she was doomed. The bows have settled and the stern is lifted above water. If the wind continues it is expected she will go to pieces. The, Dexter only sighted the Galena. She was in the fury of the waves, which were dashing over her with such force that only the top masts could be seen through the mist. The Dexter's officers would not speak of her condition or prospects, but say they are much worse than they were yesterday. They think all three vessels will be broken up. The Gallatin, whieh left Boston yesterday, arrived at Vineyard at 10 o'clock last night, where she lay until this morning, when she put into the sound, but because of rough weather and an impossibility to be of service, returned. It was then she sighted the Dexter and 1 accompanied her to that port. Steamer Sunk and Crew Lost. London, March 16.

ONE VEli CENT. TOO MUCH. The TJae of Money Should Coat Nothing, Senav tor-Elect Peffur Diclares. From Senator Peffer'a Speech at Annapolis. I dou't knov how you iu Maryland are, but you're not so badly oil as our people of Kansas. In New York State I find farms have depreciated in value M per cent. In when we raised the larceat crop of corn in Kansas wo ever produced, tbe secretary of our btate Hoard of Agriculture estimated the coat of producing tbe cereal at 11 cents a bushel. In lb'.O we got on an average of 15 cents a bushel for it. What does farming iu Maryland pay? A. voice, "KotbiiiC.rl Why. it pays 2 or 3 per cent, pro tit, and the larmer pays C per cent, on the money he borrows to keep up. Wo want to reduce tho rate of interest. We've got tho rate down to 5 per cent, in Kansas now, and we propose, by 111, to get it as low as 1 per cent. You say that's revolutiouary. I answer, yes.' This is a revolution we're engaged iu. Un'tl percent, too little to get for tho use of money, you askf No, 1 answer. Tbepeopleoughtn'tto pay one farthing for the ube of money. That's still more startling. They say we want to destroy capital. No,. we don't Hut we want to restore the supremacy of tbe people, and we propose to do it I've heard farmers who doubted themselves whether itwas honest to reduce the rate of interest. It's not only honest, but a necessity. Unless tho rate is reduced we'll loseour homes through mortgages. Why, then, can't we all agree to take 1 per cent, for onr money! We want to destroy the power of the people who oppress ut aud not their property. The interestbearing function of money is the fang of tbe great, red dragou, the money power. How different we are to-day from what wo were lifty yeas ago! We are jutt changing again. The people must do tbe work of change and they are going to succeed. Ilat Gladstone lias lleen "True to TolL" Brooklyn Eajcle. Sir Charles Dilke. resting under imputations similar to those against Mr. rarnelL, tiiids the same obstacle that the Irish exleader does to his re-entree into public life, iu the pre-eminently moral mind of Mr. Gladstone. Consistency of the Ejections it a prerequisite to political favor with the People's William. Politically, however, Mr. Gladstone himself has been tho most inconsteut quantity that ever was. The English nation are the moat ingenious and inventive in the world. Their mgenuity aud invention have led them into more political experiment than any other nation ou tho earth. Mr. Gladstone is the only man living, or that ever did live, who has belonged to every one of the parties which, by the administration of the emetic of emergency to the stomach of the body politic, has been thrown up in Great Britain, in tho last oue hundred years. Eren Crow a Mere Aahamed of It. Kantaa City Star. The inquisitive gentleman, who is anxious to know why the crows have been llying in large numbers in a northeasterly direction during the day time and returning at sight, may tind an explanation in the inference that they maj' have been ashamed to bo seen in Kansas during the tetgioa of tho Legislature. A crow is not a senaitivo bird, but ho has feelings. Not Trarallng ou Ilia Head. Minneapolis Trltmne.
