It is surmised that the recovery of the letter which Bodes ink throw out of the car window after he ' ras placed nndet arrest, was the cause of the arrest of the fourth man yesterday morning. Neither the deputy marshal who node the arrest nor any of the “Q” of trials would saj what the letter contained, bat ttiey spoke of It in snch a signifin not way that it is almost certain the leUt r contained the names of some prominent msmbers of the Brotherhood and u so some details in regard to contemplated plans for operating and employing dynamite that will produce a sensation when, they are made public at the tria l next week. General Manager Stone, of the Burlington, last night gave out for publication the following sensational statement ot facts as to the recent arrests made by the Pinkerton National Detective Agency, at his instigation. Dorini; the day nearly every body concerned maintained a close silence, but toward o rening. when Mr. Stone began to appreciate the d eep interest the public was takin g in the matter, it was agreed to make a statement of the case as fully as possib to without defeating the ends of justice:: “A few days after tie middle of May last,” said Mr. 8tone, “ihe company was informed that attempts weire to be made to damage its property and trains by the use of dynamite and that Bowles, the Brotherhood engir eer who was arrested Thursday aftem ion with dynamite in his possession, was i bout to leave town to put the plan in open it ion.

Hoge, chairman of the general grievance committee.” Mr. Stone then furnishes in detail an account of a number of explosions and attempts to wreck the company’s property and trains at points whore Bowles and Broderick were loaded,, and continues: “During this time Binderick and Bowles had been furnished * ith fun ds and letter* of introduction to varioui, members of the Brotherhood, stating that they were on business of the utmost importance to the Brotherhood, and asking co-operation in every possible way rotn all members to whom they were pr« sented.

Hr. Stone declined to Miter more folly into the character of the proofs of these acts. As to danger to trains passtnr over the road, he riiiic aled the idea, as all the conspirators are •> well known that any serious attempts iue impossible. Mr. Stone further staid that these at* tempts to injure the -ompary’s property were by no means the first of the attempts of the Brotherhood in that direction.

PLUTOCRATIC SOPHISTRY, at The Republican party has thrown off Its thin guise, nn<i boldly proclaimed itself to be, what its acts long ago proved itt to be. the party of the classes as opposed to the masses. Its habit of dissembling and falsifying to still dominant, and manifests Itself in nearly every line of its long confession of faith ami covenant of works, but there can be no mistaking its attitude on the question of the spoliation tariff. Though it grossly sod wilfully misrepresents the position of the Democratic party, its own position Is defined so distinctly that it can not possibly be misunden tood. That position is, in brief, that the tariff for spoliation must be maintained and made still higher at whatever cost The tobacco tax must go first, next the tax on spirits ho!, used as beverages, and finally the taxes on all liquors used for getting drank, if that is necessary to save the sacred taxes laid on the necessaries of Ilfs for the purpose of enriching the few at the expense of the many; and these (sacred taxes must be raised higher and higher, to the extent necessary to shut off revenue not needed % shutting out imports□The position is that aot one solitary tax for the eartehmoat of the classes out of tile earnings of the masses shaQ be reduced fay so much as a mill in the dollar, but that alii the revenue taxes— all the taxes on tobacco, on beer, on whisky ami cm imported good* the like ol which are not produced in this country—shall go, in imder that the r-* Moopoly

It affirms in so many words that all the internal taxes should go before " any part of our protective system ” should be surrendered. It affirms the same thing indirectly when it denounces the tariff policy of the Administration, which simply aims at a reduction of the more monstrous of the war tariff taxes. It affirms the same thing once more directly when it says that the revenues should be reduced by changing the tariff (by increasing it. of course) so as to check imports of articles the like of which are produced here, as well as by abolishing the tariff on all other articles; ' Such a shameless declaration that ail National taxation should be for the aggrandizement and enrichment of favored industries, with revenue as a mere incident, or accident, or as something to be shut off entirely by the tax, has never before been put forth by any political party in this country.

It is among the probabilities if the American people are as intelligent and independent as they flatter themselves they are.—Chicago Ulobe. ( REDUCE THE TARIFF.

Extracts from Hon. C. R. Breckinridge** Xew York Reform Speech. Gentlemen, our path is plain, our duty is clear. Let us press for fair, equal and constitutional taxation. Let us cut loose from trusts and monopoly and come bask at least to the old claim of protection. Let us come bach to the land-marks of peace. The present practice and purposes are contrary to the letter add the spirit of our organic law. Let us come baek in this, as in all things, to the constitution, the sheet anchor of our hope, the muniment of onr liberties, the warrant and the limitations of our powers. The people will not find prosperity, happiness and honor in the line of class legislation. Capital will not find stability there. Men with good purposes can not advocate it. The present contention of these people is communism, gentlemen, in its worst form; and these people had as well he teaching the toiling masses the use of dynamite as to tell them that class legislation is right, and then also continue to make it a cheat, and a fraud, and an engine of oppression as they are doinghow. But, gentlemen, the arrogant, grasping and vulgar rich will not; control this country, and neither will the inob. There is too much wealth, associated with thought, culture and true conservatism for extremists to sueeeed. This class is always in close* sympathy with the honest masses of tho people. Ihey know that liberty, brotherhood, commerce, exchange and prosperity all go hand in hand. If oppression and restriction upon trade were truly profitable, man would never be free and nations would be consigned to endless rivalries and strife. But God's law is intercourse, prosperity and peace. Low taxes, economy, liberty, freedom, equality, justice, fail play and prosperity go hand in hand. The contest then is not between the rich and tits poor, but it is between the selfish rich and the ignorant poor upon the one hand, and the great body of our people, rich and poor, who believe in equality and justice, upon the other hand. - f It is between monopoly and prosperity. Organizations are springing up all over the country in support of this cause; clubs like this great club of magic growth, able, patriotic and opulent; clubs in my o*n State, composed of men young and old, zealous and with you heart and soul; dubs everywhere contending for equal laws among a noble people who fear no nation in any field or form; who belie™ in God, liberty and peace, who ask do privileges among themselves, and who will spurn the hand that offers them. Let us, then, plant ourselves upon the bedrock of human rights. Let us proclaim its harmony with prosperity, increased wages and happiness. Common sense la with us. The constitution and the Declaration of Independence are with us. God Himself is with us. Then let us boldly unfurl our banner to the breeze, and go forth among the people and ceaselessly expound the everlasting emblems upon its field. The Vaporing* of a Bos*.
