OF A LITTLE G1UU Found Her Mother, Father and Brothers Weltering ia Pools of Blood A Negro's Deed. Sherman', Tex.. March 2. This city is in a state of excitement by the report of a terrible tragedy which occurred Monday night at the home of William Smith, two miles northwest of this city. Mr. Smith's father tells this story: "On Monday night ono of my son's little daughters came to my honss and stayed all night. She went home in the morning about 8 o'clock. She toon returned to me crying and exclaiming, 'Papa, and mamma, and my brothers have all been killed.1 I went just as soon as 1 could, and a terrible sight met my gaze. William and his wife were both lying in pools of blood. My son managed to mumble out a few words, but the others ? ere insensible, except a little boy. who was least hurt, but terribly rantilated. lie managed to say: 'Sam did it last night with a piece of iron.' Every one was cut and gashed, and there was blood all over tne house. There was no one who could tell me about the assault." Sam Massey, a negro living near by, was arrested and brought into the city, and followed to jail by an excited crowd. Massey protests his innocence, yet blood was found on his clothing. TURNING TDC TABLES. In Unscrupulous L'qnor-Dealer Accepts a TemperancA Advocate's Advice. Dktroit, March 2. Ex-Senator T. "W. Palmer, president of the World's Fair Commission, was one of the speakers at a temperance meeting, in tho First Presbyterian Church, last Friday evening. He pointed out the great evils of saloons, and closed with tho advice that if young men must drink whisky they had better buy jugs and take the beverage home with them rather than visit saloons. J. C. Beutlcr, proprietor of a largo liquor store, turned the point on Mr. Palmer today. He purchased a large number of stone jugs, tilled them with whisky, and had some cards printed announcing that young men who did not wish to degrade themselves by frequenting saloons, but who would "follow the advice of ex-Senator Palmer.1' could get jugs tilled with the best whisky at his iBeutler's) place of business. The cards, with Mr. Palmer's name in display type, were posted all over the town, and this afternoon Rentier bad a great rush of business. On each was printed: "lteo omraer.dedby ex-Senator Thomas W. Palmer." Dozens of Mr. Palmer's friends purchased jugs of whisky and sent them to his ollice. GATE MILLIONS TO CHARITY. Philadelphia and Its Institutions Receive ths Bulk of Mrs. Wilstach's Great Wealth. Fnii.ADKi.rniA. March 2. Tho will of the lato Mrs. William P. Wilstach has been read bofore the members of the family. The will is an exceedingly lengthy document and was evidently prepared by Mrs. Wilstach, without tho aid of a lawyer. It is all in her own handwriting. The entire estate amounts to about o.000.000. Every known charitable institution in Philadelphia receives a bequest ranging in size from $1,000 to 520.000. The valuable art collection embracing priceless paintings, engravings 6tatuary and works of art, estimated to be worth 51,003,000, goes to the city of Philadelphia, under the control of the Fairmount Park commissioners. One-fourth of the residue, amounting to almost 1,000,000. is also bequeathed to the city. In the event of the city's refusal to accept the bequest it goes to the Pennsylvania Museum and School of Industrial Art. Contrary to expectations, tho Apprentices' Library receives but 5.000. The Academy of Fine of Arts is ignored, not receiving a penny. The last alteration in the will was made Jan. 7. IRELAND AT THE VATICAN. The American Archbishop Reported to Hay Beea Made Cardinal Prefect. Minneapolis, Minn., March 2. At the time of Archbishop Ireland's summons to the Vatican it was reported that ho was to be raised to the cardmalate, but it has since transpired that ho went to Home at tho Pope's invitation to accept the position of cardinalprefect. The last time Cardinal Gibbons was in Home he showed the Pope the necessity of having an American cardinal-perfect at the Vatican; ithat America, with its millions of mixed nationalities, must sooner or later burden tho Vatican with more comrlaiLts than the Council of Cardinalsiwoutd find timeto consider, and that the ouly effectual way of giving the church in this eouutry the attentionit merits would be to have a represeutative at Heme. This suggestion the Pope is said to have acquiesced in. and promised to consider as soon as possible. Prann Dettreen Iron Rollers. PiTTSBUito. March 2.

BEFORE THE ISATTLE. IIow Flttslmmons and Maher LookedThe Igniter Saperstltioas Some of the Bis; net. New Or.LKANS. March 2. Peter Maher, of Ireland, an aspirant for heavy-weight honors, and Kobert Fitzsimmone, the New Zealander, who is middle-weight champion of the world, met to-night, before the Olympic Club, of tnis city, for a purse of $10,000, of which the loser (rets Si, 000. The Olympio had an arena which eeated nearly five thousand poople. By the addition of galleries, the utilization of corners and economy of apace in every possible way, tho capacity was increased to six thousand, and it was fully testod to-night. It was a "magnificent" gathering. 1 here were sporting men from England, Ireland and from every corner of the United States. Chicago and New York, between them, had fully five hundred delegates. New Orleans supplied its leading mercbantsand professional men, and that tho SDorts wcro there goes without saying. Betting was free all day. Every rumor was passed about with lightning rapidity. Every pugilist had a following; prominent Robert FitZ8immot$. ones like Slavin and Mitchell had a mob at their heels. The climax came when Fitzsimioons showed up this morning. He bad an army behind him. His line condition was apparent to all who saw him. He came over on the early train, accompanied by Choynski, Greggains and Kobertwon, and was in glorious spirits. Ho laughed, joked and chatted, but refrained from any mention of the fight. Soveral persons attempted to tell him about Maher, but he refused to listen, saying that he would see for himself when he got into tho ring. Fitztimmons is over six feet tall, and and when he trained for Eempsey, getting down to 154 pounds, he was so thin that he seemed liable to break into pieces at any moment. This time, however, without any weightlimit, he trained up instead of down and grow as stout as aman of Fitzsimmons's build can be Imagined to be. Ilia broad shoulders and chest are massed with muscles and bis long arms and long, thin legs have actually graceful lines to them. The face, too. is round and rosy and altogether the New Zelander this morning looked stronger and better than ever bofore. He weighed between 1GS and 172 pounds at different portions of his last work days and to-night was very near 170 pounds. After he walked and talked through the crowd in the morniug his friends obtained renewed confidence and many bets were placed on him at even money. In the Paris mutuals the majority of the tickets issued bore tho name of Fitzsinimons. Soon after his arrival he went to the house of a friend mthe lower district, near the Olympio Club-bouse, and there spent most of the day in rest, timing himself so as to get to tho arena shortly before the fight. IMAIIEIl 18 SUPERSTITIOUS. In. accordance with the original programme, signed by Billy Madden and the other members of Maher'a cabinet, tho Irishman was kept far from the maddened crowd. Dave Holland was his constant attendant. He rose leisurely, took a short walk, breakfasted about 10 o'clock, cuddled up in a sunny corner of his bed-room, and rested for about six hours. At 4 o'clock he ate dinner, and took no moro nourishment till the tight. Maher was in great 'form. Though not as tall as Fitz, he loooked stronger and full of vim. Ho has black hair, a low brow, firm, broad jaws, square chin, and a short brown mustacbo abovo a pleasant mouth and lino set of teoth. His chest and shonlders and especially the latter, were of true heavy-weight proportions. His arms, although long, were heavily muscled and big and broad of bone, the kind that could be depended upon for hard work. From the way tho Irishman spoko and acted he was very confident, although not in a happy mood. There is a good deal of viciousness in his disposition, and it cropped out con1'eier llahcr. tinoally. He tboueht that Slavin and Mitchell and all of tho big pugilists were auxious to have him whipped, despite their sweet words to tho contrary, but he said he would win anyhow. He seemed eager for the hour of tho right, and his talk denoted that he intended to make short work of the New Zealander if ho could. He refused several invitations to sup until after the show, intimating that he intended to keep himself, but he had a private Arrangement with Holland to open a bottle of wine At half past 9 o'clock, provided the fight started at i o'clook. Holland was imbued with all of Maher's confidence and got away lrom hirh long enough to-night before the light to placo S 1,000 upon tho result being in favor of Maher. There was one thing that cast a gloom upon the Irish champion, and it was a good deal in the nature of a superstition. He objected strenuously to lighting on Ash

Wednesday and had us-ed every eflort to secure some other dato. but without suocens. The fact weighed on hltn rot a little and bis chagrin waa deepened because he bad forgotten to go to ennrch in the morning. Tho superstition increased his viciousness and boded ill for his rival if the fierce giant ronld get his battering rams near the middle-weight's body. A few of the big bets registered to-day were as follows: Charley Johnson. $4,200, on Maher; Jimmy Adstns, of New York, ?fi.S00, on Maher: 1. H. Ormsby. $3,500, on Fitzimnitn!; Billy Madden, $1.C00, on Maher; The Garfield track syndicate, of Chicago, composed of John Condon. Harry Varnel and others, upwards of 312.000. on Fitzsimmons; George Clark, of Chicago. S6.Oun.oii Fitzsimmons: Steve Brodfe. 81.000, on Maher. Jerry Daley is also said to have wagered $2,500, on Fitzsimmons. WON BY FITZSIMMONS.

Maher Throws Up the Sponge After Twelve Savage nnd Woody Hounds. The Olympic Club-bouse is three miles below Canal street. In that neighborhood hundreds of women and children were collected and shouted at the passing vehicles to-night. It was a Fitzsimmons crowd throughout. Every mention of tbe middleweight champion's name was received with cheers, and men stood on tho corners shaking money in their hands, and o fieri ue to bet on his chances of winning. Not only were the men interested, but women and children as well. There were several entrances to the club, and there was a tremendous crush at each of them. A great force of policemen and ticket-takers was on hand, however, and they handled the thousands who applied for admission with rapidity and ease. Inside the arena at 7:C0 o'clock nearly every seat was taken, and the crowd was not only the greatest that has ever been seen at a fight in Now Orleans, but it was likewise the most representative. At 7:45 the arena, with its Eea of humanity, bedecked in carnival-colored drapery and flags of all nations, presented a gala sight. The place was brilliantly illuminated; several Kinds of lights made darkness impossible. Tho mammoth arena was a sea of heads, aud the sight before the light was almost as exceptional and exciting as the fight itself. While the throng watched the preliminary bouts it fli ecu seed the merits of Fitzsimmons, and Maher, and there were many quiet bets made. No open wagers were allowed. Outside of the club a throng awaited the arrival of the puuilists. Maher was the first to show up. He did somo lieht work during the evening and at 7 o'clock got in a cab with Warren Lonis, Billy Madden. GnsTuthill. Jack Fallon and P. Kelly and drove down to the club. Few knew that tho tall and handsome young fellow that walked with Madden was the redoubtable Irish lad. Maher wofe a heavy overcoat and his face looked rosy and heavy. . To a reporter he said he weighed 17 pounds and felt in splendid condition. His looks belikened it. Mahor was taken into a room upstairs and stripped, and while waiting for the call to the arena, he chatted pleasantly with the men who believed he was the greatest man of his class in the world. FITZ WAS CONFIDENT. Fitzsimmons reached the club at 8 o'clock and immediately stripped. He was accompanied by Jimmy Carroll, Joe Choynski. Prof. J.- Robertson and Greggains. Tho Australian appearod in superb condition, but he had littlo to say of tho fight. He would not talk at all, but there was supreme confidence in every move he made. Carroll said Fitzsimmons and his friends spent the afternoon in playing the piano and singing. FitZinLU'Tjong did not seem like a man going into the contest of his life. While he was being rubbed down Carroll opened and read a bundle of telegrams from all over tho country wishing the Australian success. The moat interesting was one from his wife. Tho timers for the Maher-Fitzsimmons contest were George R. Clark, of Chicago, for Fitzsimmons. P. J. Donobne, for Maher, and H. M. Frank for the club. Prof. John Dully was refwree, while Capt. Billy Barrett was, as usual, in charge of the arena. Edward Curtis made his first appearance as master of ceremonies, and was heartily cheered. The men entered the ring exactly at 9 o'clock, Peter Maher first, dressed in black trousers with black stockings, and black lighting shoes. GusTuthill. Billy Madden aud Jack Fallon were his seconds. Fitzsimmons entered a moment later, and grasped Maher's hand, and was cheered to the echo for so doing. Jimmy Carroll followed his principal's example, and Choynski, and Greggains, who assisted Carroll in Fitzsimmons's corner, Immediately began the preparation for battle. Madden was as pale as death during this preparation for the fight. There was the usual parley in the middle of the ring. Both men were stripped to the waist. Fitzsimmons wore a scarlet breech-cloth with black fighting shoes and black stocitin as. Tbeothcial weights announced were: Fitzsimmons, KZ; Maher, ITS. Time was called at 0:15, and the men met in tho center of the ring. KNOCKED EACH OTFIER DOWN. Fitzsimmons opened the ball by feinting at Maher. The latter made two left leads for the face, and Fitzsimmons countered on the eye. Maher made another lead with the left, bnt missed. Both men missed lefts, and Fitzsimmons dabbed his left glove into Maher's nose. Fitzsimmons knocked Maher down with a right under the jaw, aud landed his left on Maher's nose when Maher got up. Fitzsimmons then staggered Maher with another left, and repeated it a moment later with the right. Maher bled freely from the mouth, and knocked Fitzsimmons down as time was called. This was a terrible round, and both men were carried to their corners. Honors even. in tho second round Fitzsimmons assayed the left, ar! Maher dncked. Both very cautious, at ! both missed laco blows. Maher landed heavy left in the body and repeated it in tho ribs with his right, Fitzsimmons landed a heavy left on Maher's ear. and dabbod his left into Maher's bloody mouth. Maher bled profusely from the mouth, but landed again with the left on Fitzsimmons's body. Both landed heavy hits, and thui Maher landed a heavy blow on Fitzsimmons's ear. and the lattnr ran away. Both men landed right and left, and Fitzsimmons staggered his man with a left in the mouth. Fitzsimmons dabbed his left repeatedly into Maher's bloody month, and both men went to their corners very weak. Honors werj still easy, though Fitzsimmons appeared to be the cleverest of the two, and landed tho most blows. Maher attempted a left in the third round, but Fitzsimmons landed on the nose. Maher was tho nggreesor, and both landed lefts. Maher tried with his left for the body, but received a left on tho nose. Maher tried to hit for the head with hia left, but Fitzsimmons ducked and saved himself. The latter landed a heavy right on Maher's ear, and avoided a return. Maher landed heavily with his right on the stomach, and got a left on the nose. Maher almost statruerod, as lime was called, by missing a blow. In the fourth Maher still bled from the mouth,' and Fitzsimmons aimed for the out spot. Fitzsimmons lauded his left on Maher's noso and avoided two blows aimed at his body. Maher landed a left on tho none, but got the same a momcLt later, while Fitzsimmons landed right and left on Maher'a head. Maher landed a heavy heart punch with his right and received in return a staggerer on his out mouth from the Australian's left. Maher was trying for a right cross-counter, but landed a good, left upper-cut. Fitzsimmons lauded two heavy straight lefts on the mouth, and Maher presented tho sight of a beaten-np man. This round was all in Fitzsimmons's favor. A FAVAGE ROUND. The men met in the center of tho ring again in the fifth round, sparred for a few moments, aud then Fitzsimmons landed a heavy left bnt received the samo a moment later.

DEMOCRACY SUFFERS DEFEAT

New York State Swept by Republicans in Tuesday's Town and City EIections.2 Even in the Stronghold of Elmira, Homo of Would-Be-President Hill, the Democrats Bid Not Elect One of Their Nominees. Strength of the Candidates Whoso Names Will Be Presented at Chicago. Rhode Island's Delegation Instructed for Cleveland After a Long and Bitter Contest Hill's Coming Trip to ths South. DEMO C It ATI C WATERLOO. Republicans Sweep New York State and Elect All Candidates at Hill's Home Town. New York, March 2. Elections were held in many of the cities and towns in this State yesterday. The returns show large Kepublican gains. In Duchess county the last board of supervisors stood: Democrats, IS; republicans, S. Heturns so far received show that the Hepublicans have elected sixteen and tho Democrats five, with four towns yet to be heard from. In Elmira, Senator Hill's home, not a Democratic nominee was elected. The Republicans carried Peekskill, turning a Democratic majority of two in the Council into a Republican majority of two. Charles I. Law eon, Republican, was elected Mayor of Newburg, and the Republicans made gains in both the Counoil and board of supervisors. In Oswego, tho Republicans .elected the first Mayor that they have had since 1&. There were three .candidates in the field. Ex-Mayor Mitchell, who accepted the nomination from the Hill Democrats, received 71 votes: Dr. W. J. Bulger, the candidate of the Cleveland taction, received 1,816 votes aud W. D. Allen, the Republican candidate, received l,h82 votes, giving him the election by a plurality of sixty-six votes. Tho Hill men elected one alderman. Tho Cleveland men elected four aldermen, one police commissioner and ono school commissioner. Both factions had full city tickets in the field. The Council stands: Five Democrats and three Republicans. The Republicans gain three in tho board of supervisors. Utica Republicans elected a majority of the board of supervisors, and for tho first time in a generation captured the board of aldermen. Reports from all parts of Ontario county show large Republican gains; tbo Democrats elected only two out of eighteeu supervisors. The same story comes from Auburn, and the board of supervisors which last year was tied now stands: Kepublicans, twenty-three; Democrats, eight, and two towns yet to elect. At Troy the Democrats carried everything before them. Mayor Whelan was reelected by ovor 5,000 majority. The board of supervisors is Democratic and Democrats will have moro thau two-thirds of the members of tho Common CounciL Many complaints are made of illegal voting at Troy. It is charged that gangs of repeaters went from ward to ward.and swore to their votes, which in moat every case were accepted. Ballots had been folded by election officials. Three or four men were in a booth in some districts at one time and it is charged that in some instances men were allowed to voto whose names were not registered. Names of legal voters wero frequently voted on before the owner of the name reached the polls. Returns from the towns of Ulster county come in slowly. It is estimated that the board will stand fifteen Democrats and eleven Republicans. This is a gain of four Republican supervisors, the board last year standing nineteen Democrats to 6even Republicans. Returns from Renssalaer county give seven Democrats and nine Republicans, with Hoosao to be heard from, making the board stand fifteen Democrats and thirteen Republicans The Board of Supervisors of Oneida county will stand eighteen Democrats to twenty-three Republicans. Last year tho board stood fifteen Democrats to twenty-eight Republicans. The official returns from the twenty towns of Saratoga county show that the Republicans carried fifteen.

DEMOCRATIC SPECULATION. 11111 Is the Most Formidable Candidate, but a Western Man Will Likely Re Chosen. New York, March 2,The Herald's Washington correspondent has prepared a table showing presidential preferences of the State delegations to the Democratio national convention. The figures are based upon interviews with congressional Representatives of the States in Washington. The computation is made on a basis of nine hundred delegates in the national convention, of which the Herald man's classification, 'upou competent and quoted authority," is as follows: Hill, 285; CIoveland,2G5; for some Western man, 50. Mr. Cleveland seems to be the choice of fifteen States. They are California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Ohio. Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin, and Hill is said to bo the choice of ten States. They are Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Muryland, Mississippi. New Jersey, New York. Pennsylvania. tSouth Carolina and Texas. Geographically the Hill States are: Five Southern, three Middle and two Western. Politically, seven are Democratio and three Republican. Illinois will carry eight votes for General Palmer; Indiana, thirty for Governor Gray; Iowa, twenty-six for Uorernor Boies; Kentucky, twenty-six for ex-Speaker Carlisle; Maryland, sixteen for Senator Gorman; Michigan, twenty-eight for Don Dickinson, and Pennsylvania sixty-four for Governor Pattieon. After these complimentary votes all these States mentioned, except Maryland and Pennsylvania, desire that their delegations support a Western man, providing, of course, that the favorite show no sign of gaining strength. Pennsylvania's big vote will then go to Hill, and, also, Maryland's sixteen delegates. This has all been shown in the table. The correspondent analyzes his table thus: "While Hill cannot count absolutely on the elecoral vote of the great pivotal State, New York, nor upon Pennsylvania, ho can count upon the electoral vote of a far greater number of States whose delegations will support him in the convention than can the ex-President, This is what friends of the Senator have been claiming, but the figures have never been set forth. They show unmistakably that m the Stales where the Democratic sentiment is ftredomiuant Hill is stronger than Cloveand. "But the real choice of the Democracy is shown in sixteen btates. where the Democrats say: 'A plague npon both; we are for n Western man.' These States are: Arkansas. Georgia. Illinois. Indiana. Iowa, Kansas. Kentucky, Michigan. Missouri, Montana, Nebraska. Nevada, North Caro

lina. North Dakota. Tennessee and Wyomming. Mx are in the South and ten in the West. Their i5J delegates, standing solid for a Western man. and representing over one-third of the convention agaiust the other two-thirds, hopelessly divided, will probably have a great eilect in shaping the convention's action. It is significant that tho West has so far presented four candidatesGovernor Boies of Iowa. General Palmer of Illinois. Governor Gray of Indiana, and Don Dickinson of Michigan. The strongest of thoso is Bois and Palmer, and of the two Boies seems to have the lead. Not only is Governor Boies the choice of Iowa Democrats, but ho will have also the Missouri and the Nebraska delegations." LITTLE RHOnr DEMS.

After a Dlttr Fight They Select Delegates and Instruct for Cleveland. Providence. R. I.. March 2. The Democrats of Rhode Island mot hero tw iay to nominate candidates for State offices, to bo voted for at the election occuriug the first Wednesday in April and also for the selection of delegates to the national convention. Hon. Charles E. Gorman, of Providence, was elected temporary chairman. His speech eulogized the administration of Cleveland and declared that his name would be burned into the hearts of the Feople liko those of Jetl'erson nnd Lincoln, t would complete the triumvirate of a century's Democracy. These sentiments were greeted with loud applause add a few hisses. Two hours wore spent in deciding a contest among delegates, and then tho temporary organization was made permanent. The platform demands free raw materials; approves the Springer wool bill and urges its early passage; fayors the placing of iron, coal and timber on the free list. Upon the coinage question it reads: "E verv dollar of American money, whether of gold, silver or paper, ought to be of equal valno tho world over." The repealing of the Sherman coinaaeact is favored, because of its failure to accomplish results desired, and for a like reason freo coinage of silver is opposed, except upon international agreement. The closing resolution instructed the delegates to the Chicago convention to vote for Cleveland. There was a bitter fight over the Stato offices. The Cleveland faction presented the name of David S.Baker, jr.. of South Kingston. Ex-Lieutenant-governor W. C. T. Ward well, of Bristol, was placed in counter-nomination. A warm discussion, thick with personalities, followed. The vote cast was: Ward well, 127; Baker. SC, and Mr. Wardwell was declared the nominee. For Lieutenant-governor Charles F. Gorman, of Providence, was nominated. For two hours the convention labored in the selection of delegates to Chicago, the greater part of the time being spent in tho contest over Mr. Honev, of Newport, Honey was elected delegate by a substantial maority.

Parker, of West ureenwich, and A. J. Dawley, 'of Richmond. It is solid for Clveland. The convention lasted eight hours, and was tho longest and most bitterly fought Democratic contest ever held in this State. The South Wants to See Hill. Washington, March 2. Tho indications aro that Senator Hill's trip to tho South will assume far greater proportions than was originally supposed by its promoters. Invitations from all parts of the South have been coming in on the Senator thick and fast all day. and he is to-night confronted with considerable embarrassment in his desire to respond favorably to them alL The Senator has. up to this evening, been unable to make reply to any of these communications, despite tho urgency of tho telegrams. "1 would like to visit all these points," said he, "hat at present I do not see how 1 can possibly do so. I have already accepted an invitation to address the Mississippi State Legislature at Jackson on the 15th inst. and to make another speech on St. Patrick's day. two days later, at Savannah. It takes over a day to make the trip from Jackson to Savannah, and there will not be much time for stops or to make speeches on the road if tho present programme is adhered to. I am somewhat at a loss to reply to all these invitations, and will have to study up the most available routes before I can announce my programme." Does Mr. Griffith Tell the Truth? Sreclal to the Indianapolis Journal Washington, March 2. Mr. C D. Griffith, a well-known business man of Terre Haute, is at tho Metropolitan. "It is a matter in which I have taken considerable interest," he says, in a published interview, 'and my opinion is that David B. Hill's strongth is confined almost exclusively to the politicians. The masses in Indiana are unquestionably for Cleveland. I have two partners in business, one a very pronounced Republican and the other a moderate adherent of that party, though he voted for Cleveland in lbSl and 1SS8. Now both these men will vote tho Democratio tieket in the event of Cleveland's nomination, but neither of them will cast his ballot for Hill. 1 think such cases as this are not rare out our way, and they go to show the truth of my assertion that' the people who do not make a business of politics are very friendly to Grover." Postmaster Hill's Grievance. Jackson, Miss.. March 2. In a lengthy card to-day Joseph Hill, postmaster at Vicksbnrgand member of the national Republican executive committee, between whom and John R. Lynch, Fourth Auditor of the Treasury, and B. K. Brnoe, Register of Deeds at Washington, there was such an animated contest for tho recent selection of four delegates for the Stato at ' iargo to the Minneapolis convention, closes as follows: "We assure our friends that the facts will all be laid before the national committee at tho proper time, and we have no doubt that justice will be done us and our delegates seated. I did not intend to make a statement before the meeting of tho national committee, nor would 1 have done so had not Mr. Lynch mado a statement of it so at variance with the facts in the case." Folltical Notes. Kansas Republicans will select delegates to Minneapolis at Hutchinson, May 5. Several county Democratic conventions in Pennsylvania have instructed for Cleveland. Myron B. Wright has been nominated for Congress by the Republicans of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania district. The Iowa Legislature has adopted a resolution calling on; Congress to provide for the election of federal Senators by direct vote of the people. In a long interview, Representative Bryan, of Nebraska, says Western Democrats will not accept either Hill or Cleveland as the nominee for President. He thinks Boies is the coming man. The Republicans of Oklahoma have chosttn Governor Seay and W. D. Martcr as delegates to tho Republican national convention. They were instructed to vote for the renomination of President Harrison. Governor Boyd has removed R. R. Greer, of Kearney, director-general of the Nebraska world's fair commission, for cause, aud appointed Joseph Garneau. jr., vt Omaha, in his place. The cause is alleged to be political only. The Florida Republican Stato convention will be held at Tallahassee April IS. There is some talk of the Republicans joining forces with the third party in that State. The eight delegates to Minneapolis will undoubtedly bo pledged to Harrison. Slaughtered 7,750,000 Hoc.

JUDGE TAYLOR TALKS PLAINLY

llnrninj: Words That Prove the Sensation of the Day in the Street-Car Case. President Frenzel, the Mayer and an After noon Newspaper Handled Severelj After the Adjournment cf Court. Contempt Case Argned All of Yesterday and Taken Under Advisement. In the Meantime Cars Are Ranning en Tins) Allerton Talks and Batler Denies Major and the Receivership. STKEET-ItAILJIOAI) SITTATIOX. Fight Is Now . Conflneil to tho Courts and Excitement is Subsiding. The street-railroad tronblo was yesterday confined entirely to the courts. Tbo lines themselves are running smoothly under Receiver Steele, with all tho old men baci at work. Tho badges entitling them to tree rides wero restored to them in tho morning, and they will gladly remain at work, eo long as this condition of n Hairs lasts. In court the day ws' occupied with tea argument of attorneys upon the charge of contempt against President Frenzel for having tho barns locked against the re ceiver. This Judge Taylor took under ad visement. saying he would givo a decision in a couple of days. Then Mr. Frenzel's attorneys attacked the sufficiency of the receiver's bond and argument on this point) will be heard in this case inthe morning. Then, just after the adjournment of court; Jude Taylor, impelled by a remark of ono of Ironzei's attorneys, delivered a general all-around "roast" that proved thesensation of tbo day. As to the company, he said that all that was necessary to get along with the men was a little common sense and fair dealing. The courso of tho city government he regarded as weak, vacillating and cowardly. Had it done its duty the whole thing might have been settied a week ago. The editor of the after noon News, which has severely criticised his appointment of a receiver, he intiins ted had no sense. This electric display ended the day's proceedings. It develops as a side issue that Mayor Sullivan, his denial to the contrary not withstanding, was cognizant of the inten tion to ask for a receivership. Mr. Frenzel did not. yesterday, send hisi expected reply to the brotherhood's lettes looking toward a settlement. JUDGE TAYLOR'S REMARKS. Fays Ills Ilepect to the City Government; a Newspaper and Other Things. Probably the most interesting event ot tho day was an occurrence which happened after court had adjourned. Tho crowd had gathered as close about the lawyers' desks: as possible without knowing why. There, was no expectation of the storm that soon burst forth. Mr. Frenzel and Mr. Winter wero in conversation as they leaned against the edge of the table. An attorney was seeking the attention of tho court on a suit in which he was interested, when Mr. Win ter addressed the court and said: "If your Honor please, we desire to pre sent another matter to the court's attention, and that concerns the bond given by the receiver. I am informed, and as I believe credibly informed, that the bondsmen aro not worth the face of tho bond. I believe they havo not been required to appear iq court to show their sufficiency, and we will ask that they bo required to do so. The re ceiver has our property in his possession, and it is one of great value." "1 don't know that it is necessary," said Judge Taylor. 'l looked over the bond nnd thought the names were food for twice ths sum. But I suppose it will be my legal duty, whether Mr. Frenzel is found guilty of contempt or not, to accept the appeal bond, and then the company will receivo its own property again." Mr. Winter mado some remark that tho time might be protracted. ' SIR. WINTER SAT LTON. "You need not bo concerned about that; Mr. Winter," said the court, "there will bo no unnecessary delay. I msy be able to decide this before the bondsmen could bci summoned here to make oat'i as to their property. It is true the receiver will havo charge of the day's receipts." "How much would a day's receipts beP asked Mr. Claypool. "ten thousand dollars!" Mr. Frenzel gave Mr. Claypool the laugh and the latter said: "How much, then, fivo thousand, three) thousand what V The court then said, reverting to tho, original topic: "If, as I believe the law is, tho appeal bond, when approved, requires the prop erty to bo restored to tho company, and tho receiver win ue superseaen, i win near mis matter argued further, gentlemen, if you desire, at 10 o'clock in the morning. It is highly important tho company should be prepared to act carefully in this matter. If, when it sets control of the propertyagain, the company tails to act with com mon senso and lairness, the responsibility will be upon itself, not upon the court. Tho public is deeply concerned in the set tlement of this matter. The companv has the free use of tho city's streets, and when improvements are made the company re fuses to bear its share of tho cost. The city, therefore, has a right to expect of tbo company fair dealing, in exchance for tho privileges granted it by tho city. Tho court has nothing to say in favor of strikes. They have no just defense, except a plausible one. Unless the e mployes aro mistreated and thrown out of work without cause, strikes have no legal excuse. No good citizen can undertake to justify anything like the disgraceful scenes that have occurred in our city. But the comfiany should conduct its atlairs and its relations with the employes in a commonsense way. I have been a laboring man. and 1 have, tbrongh all my lile. been thrown in contact with men of all kinds. I know that a man who makes himself agreeable, and who deals fairly with men, cart have his own way in nearly everything." Ij'v mind Tins, Mi:. mayokT Hero the Judge was looking Mr. Frenzel squarely in the eye. whilo Mr. Winter nervously swung ono leg in the clasped knee, and Judge Taylor continued. "TLeso things ought to be thought of. Tho city should never again be disgraced by the conditions that havo lately existed. I am not trying to censure anybody: but if the proper course hail been pursued by the municipal authorities, all this trouble would never have happened. When the strike commenced if there had been no encouragement by the municipal authorities, that trouble would have been settled a week ago Monday. The muuici 1al authorities acted in a weak and vacil ating not only vacillating but also a cowardly way. There was no excuse for the trouble it there had been proper management." The Judge manifested a deep earnest. neas in what he said, and the company's attorneys were visibly disturbed in temper. The crowd looked on with great interest, but mado no attempt at demonstration. It was evident, however, that nearly all were enjoying tho meat of the remarks, and were rather amused at th discomfiture of the parties who precipitated the avalanche. Atteution was reverted to the original subject by Judge Claypool. who remarked that on the point of the bond, it would, no
