NOTWITHSTANDING urgent calls to return to leadership, ex-Chairman Jones ie going to the continent for further treatment. IN the meantime the Democratic party ought to go somewhere for treatment.

/POLITICS does make strange bedfellows. The Louisville Courier'Journal is now supporting Mr. Goebel, but Goebel's lieutenant, Judge Tarvin, in the recent Bryan meeting at Greenfield, Ind., denounced the Journal as the assasB'in newspaper.

Both Archbishop Ireland and Captain "Bob" Evans state that our only course with the Philippines is straight forward though there is probably a difference in the mode of expression in view of Fighting Bob's well known method of emphasizing his remarks.

Gbandma Hoar, at one time urged war on account of the Armenian troubles. She would conquer Turkey and do all sorts of thingB which we bad no color of right to attempt. Now, when we have a lot of lawleBB residents of American territory shooting American .solditt iie.^eBtroying American proper)j insulting the- flag, this toothup her hands in inpj^red'htfrror nnd in quavering tones, exclaims against the inhumanity of man.

Thb world's gold production of last year falls short only $5,000,000 of. being an even $300,000,000j :^hich is more than twice as much as was produced in 1892. This immense increase was clearly forecasted by Ike gold discoveries that had been made as early as 1890, but the free silver advocates denied the accuracy of Buch statements and led the people to believe that there was a constantly growing scarcity of the metal whose production was not keeping pace with the increase in population. Every development Bince Bryan's nomination has been such as to completely overthrow the prophesies made by the Bryan oratorB.

Soiia of the free trade fungi who were beginning to recover at the announcement of the increased importations in the fiscal year 1899 under the Dingley law, have again lapsed into innocuous desuetude, upon discovering that this increase was almost entirely in articles requhredbby manufacturers whose businesses had been increased by the protective tariff. As a couple of instances: The imports in 1899 of raw fibers for use in manufacturing, were 120,890,787 against 913,446,180 last year and only tl2,836,418 in the last year of the Wilson law. Also the imports of tin, for use in manufacturing tin plates were in 1810, |ll,843,367 against 18,778,151 in 1898 and only 19,638,352 in the last year of the VTllson law.

LST the few remaining yowlers who persist in lying about the work of the present protective tariff law, look at the offioial figures showing its receipts for the spring and summer. It was intended that it should produce at least one-half of the ordinary revenues, which averaged before the war expenditures began, one million dollars a day. Mo additions for war revenue were made to it except the tea duty which brings less than a million dollars a month. And yet the receipts under it since March first have been f103,000,000, or an average of almost {700,000 a day, instead of 8500,000, as was promised of it by the Republicans and which the Democrats predicted it would not produce. Dnring the same period of the existence of the abortive Wilson law, the customs receipts were 975,000,000 or less than three-fourths those of the present law.

OssiMl Per VseyAse. Bonnes. A«g. M.—The feorth ritttng of the third Weak of the second trial by eonrtmarttal of Captain Alfred Dreyfus a ehar§s of treason at the Lyoee be* flan at (M o'clock' Ibis morning with tttnadtaf of the. deposition of M. hatt. Vo speoial laoidaal marked the of the day'* yrecssMags.

Mannas, A«g. M.—The session eC the oeart yesfescday was comparatively an* eventful. The depositions were net productive of any really thrilling laei dents. The systematic paednotion of the flimsiest trash, whioh the proseoa Men deem*.profitable J* ,*#$«*.. W,.•$*. jadges, *ju* evidence, vr as, proceeded o^rlth. Muoh of the ridiculous testimony ofihe morn* ing .w.As devoted to au attempt to blast Dreyfus' private character, though, when Maltres Labori and Deinauge had finished with the witnesses, their bubbles of tittle-tattle were badly pricked.

Much of the time was ocoupied in reading the testimony of Esterhazy and MlleT Pays before the court of cassation, during which many yf the audience left the court-.

M. Labori again distinguished himself in laying bare the weak points of the evidenoe. He was less fierce, however, than heretofore, though quite aggressive enough to arouse the latent hostility of the judges, which showed itself iu various little ways.

During some of the depositions M. Labori appeared very nervous. He was unable to remain still an instant, twitching his fingers and shaking the papers in his hand. Counsel was almost too impatient to wait till the witnesses concluded their testimony.

The only dangerous opponent of Dreyfus was General Gonse, who mounted the stage with a quick step and apparently light heart. Bjjt he left it badly mauled by M. Labori. General Gonse began by declaring he came to defend his honor against those "drivelling" agaiust him. But when his cross-examination was finished he returned to his seat thoroughly discoiufitted, for M. Labovi had driven him into a corner the attempts of the general staff shield Esterhazy, and had shown that the general stall", for which Gonse was responsible, had engineered Esterhazy's escape from the hands of justice. The confident tones of the general had by then dwindled to the proverbial still, small voice, and his defiant bearing had changed into the abashed air of a schoolboy caught telling a Ho.

T'-i. day proved certainly a poor one .'ov the general staff. Two good samples oJ the 3tn put .up to sully Dreyfus' private character were the third and fourth Witnesses.

First Major Dtt Chatelet repeated an alleged conversation with Dreyfus regarding a lady at whose house Dreyfus is alleged to have gambled and lost money. But when crossexamined Du Chatelet's memory failed him entirely, and especially when asked the name of the lady and the street she resided in and the sum Dreyfus lost.

Next M. Dubreuil showed equally astounding forgetfulness of important points of his evidence concerning Dreyfus' acquaintanceship with a foreign attache, and when M. Demange capped his successful examination of these points by promising to show M. Dubreuil's record in the law courts is far from^ clean, the witness left the stand badly^iso'rscU ted.

A 'press correspondent talked with jbfc Jaurez, the I who, with, Mathieu Dreyfus,' sees mailire "Labori every day after the. ee^siqn, «i(i who is aoquiunted with the entire tactios of the defense. M. Jaurea said: "I am convinoed that Dreyfus will be acquitted. He m«st be acquitted, for no new faots have been brought up against him. The generals, I believe, are going to make their last stand on Bertiflion's system, which they intend to submit as proving Dreyfus guilty. Intelligent men laugh at it, but it is very ingenious and has the merit in thv eyes of generals of being Ineomprehebsible to an or dinary man, and thusJbalculatad to impress him, if supported by the puppets of the general staff. •'Bsrtillion'a theory has already been Introduced by some of the military witnesses, who declare their confidence iu it. The trial, in my belief, will last about another 20 days."

Will Prosecute Journalists. Rennes, Aug. 24.—M. Labori has deoided to prosecute La Oroix, one of the leading clerical organs, and La Libra Parole, together with M. Drummont, proprietor and direotc# of the latter paper, personally, for declaring the recent murderous attack upon him a "fake."

Nephew ol' Senator Mason Dead. Washington, Aug. 84.—Clayton C. Mason, a nephew of Senator Mason of Illinois, died here last night' from an overdose of mdrphine, tSken hyperdermically, presumably to ease pain due to kidney trouble from whieh he had suffered for^sume time. Air. Mason was an employe at the eapitel. His widow is a resident of Chicago.

G. A. R. REUNION Naval Parade to Be a Feature of This Year's Meeting.

Philadelphia, Aug. 23.—With the exception of a few minor details, the arrangements for the encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, whioh begins here a week from next Monday, are complete.

The Grand Army parade on Sept. 5 will be reviewed by President MoKialey from an immense stand ontheeaet plana of the elty hall.

MAGIC WRECKED Crew of the Schooner Had Attempted ". to Escape In Boat*.

Shnta Barbara, Cal., Aug. 94.—The gasoline schooner Magio was wrecked Bancho Viejp bay, Santa Boea island. The captain and crew had" been fighting and much bad blood existed between them. The captain- was in strange water and had a man sounding with the lead, but he failed to report and a reef was struck. All the men jumped into a skiff except the engineer and another man, who were in the hold. When they reached the deok they saw the skiff going off. The engineer called for them to return, but they yelled back: "She is going to turn turtle to-h with her. Every man for himself." A Mauser covered them and they returned. All afterward landed safe on shore and walked 20 miles to a ranch house.

AGAINST THE NEGRO:

Strong- \yords by a Colored 31 inister ut Baptist Congress. Atlantic City, Aug. 24.—At yesterday's session of the Colored Baptist congress of the United Stn-'-es, Rev. Dr. Robinson of Pittsburg, in an address declared that the colored race must "paddle its own canoe." He said: "We must get money, banks, railroads, learn how to make gnus and powder, etc., and then learn to use them before we can become a power iu this country."

He closed by asserting: "The north, the southland the devil, in hell are against the negro, and God is the only one who will accept us."

The imperfect list oaneee great diisatisfaction, acd & rumor oircalated that the paym*stere were aibcut to leave alanned the x^en who had nol'-iieeii paid. They began toooUeot in groaye and to show their ahnoyraoe. .Tinaily their threats became serious.

Captain Baliat with SO gendarmes was present to preserve order anting the applicants and the United States troops protected Colonel Moale, the officer having charge of the payments. Suddenly Captain Baliat, who was mounted, [was surrounded by a mob, struck by stones and bottles and shot in the arm. His men promptly fired a volley into the mob, three persons being instantly killed and 18 wounded, two of whom have since died.

Colonel Moale's guard promptly surrounded the money office, but took no part in the fighting.

For a few minutes there was a lively conflict, carbines and machetes being used freely. Captain Baliat was the only gendarme wounded. All the dead are colored Cuban soldiers.

Payment has been resumed under a heavy guard. There axe rumors that a force is being organized to attack the pay office, but these are probably unfounded.

General Castillo, civil governor of Santiago de Cuba, was at Cuevitas "at the time and soon restored order.

There is no doubt that the inaccurate list will cause a great deal of hardship. Many veterans have vainly followed the United States commissioners for six weeks, only to find that their names are not listod.

General Leonard Wood, military governor, does not, however, anticipate serious trouble.

CONFERENCE HELD

Big Pour Officials and Engineers' Grievance Committee -Meet. Cincinnati, Aug. 24.—The conference between General Manager'Sehaff, General Superintendent Van Winkle of the Big Four railway and Grand Chief Arthur of the Locomotive engineers, along with the grievance committee of the Locomotive engineers of the Big Four system, ended last evening. Nothing whatever has been divulged as to the details of their proceedings.

The general statement was given Out that all adjustment-^perfectly satisfactory to both sides had been reached. It is learned from leakag| that the railroad officials presented figi&es showing that locomotive engineers at the reduced wages were earning as much, and in some cases more, than they did at the higher wages prevailing in 1893. Mr. Arthur's answer to this is said to have been the question, "Is only one sido entitled to profit by improvements injrolling stock and machinery?"

It is pretty certain that iu reaching the agreement concessions were made by both sides.
