A CRUEL, MURDER.The story told in this morning's Globe

>f the fiend in human shape who drove overa little girl on Robert street yesterday after-noon, and didn't even • show so much hu-manity as to stop to inquire whether thechild was hurt or not. will arouse a feelingof resentment in every humane breastwhich would justify the application oflynch law to the brutal wretch. The man,ifhe can be called by the name ofman, was.seen by a policeman and a number of citi-zens, who will readily recognize him. Thepolice authorities should at once institute athorough search for him, and every goodcitizen will lend a willing hand to bring thefiend to justice. If the child dies, and itscondition is so critical as to create the ap-prehension that death will ensue, there canbe no question that the murderer deserves therope. He was driving at an unlawful pace;he saw the helpless little child in the streetin front of him and made no effort to checkhis horse, he drove her down and her headwas crushed beneath the hoofs ofthe horse,and yet lie kept right ahead, with no touch ofpity or metcy in',his fiendish heart. It is acase that needs to be made an example of.The Globe has uttered repeated warningsabout the danger of last driving in ourstreets, but it has been unheeded. The'municipal law on the subject is plainenough, and yet it is unheeded. Itis re-spected more in the bleach than in tlie ob-servance. This form of reckless violationof law has gone long enough, and if theauthorities willnot attempt its enforcementthen the people of the city will. It hascome io a pretty pass when our childrencannot cross a street without being sub-jected to the risk of being killed any mo-ment by the reckless«drivers who monopo-lize the streets.

THE ELECTION BILL. XThe Whitemax election bill, which has

passed the senate and has gone to tlie house_____approval or rejection, embodies many

valuable reforms, yet itneeds amending inseveral important particulars. The numberofvoters who are to be permitted under itsprovisions to vote at one polling placeshould be reduced from 700 to 500, or toeven a less number, lt also provides for asuperabundance of ballot boxes. But thefeature in which it particularly needs to beamended is that which relates to the hoursforkeeping the polls open. The existingcustom of opening the polls at sunrise andclosing at sunset is right. Election dayshould be a whole day and not a fraction ofa day. The proposed plan ofthe billto openthe polls at 9 o'clock in the morning andto close at 5 in the afternoonwould practicallydisfranchise the working classes. Thetime is too short anyway to give the num-ber ofvoters who are to be included in oneprecinct to cast the number of separate bal-lots that are required under the proposedmeasure. But the particularly objection-ble feature is that which opens the pollsafter the day laborer lias gone to his workand closes it before he quits his day's labor.As much as election reform is needed inthis state, it would be better to get alongafter the old clumsey fashion than to passthe Whiteman bill with this objectionablefeature in it. Eliminate that and makeelection day to include twelve hours, andthen make the few other additional amend-ments that are suggested, and we can see noreason why the measure would not be animprovement on the existing law. Themain reform that is needed is some meansby which the counting of votes can be facil-itated.

SPEAKER CARLISLE.Speaker Carlisle was right when

he expressed a reluctance to abandonhis congressional career to assume theduties of a cabinet position. To a manwho is ambitious to continue a career ofpublic usefulness a cabinet office offersvery little temptation. It is a good placefor a public man to round up his officialcareer. But -to be a cabinet officer thesedays is almost equivalent to being shelvedfor all future time. Mr. Carlisle is just \u25a0

hi the midst of his usefulness in con- jgressional life. He is already crownedwith an honor which is equal in dignity jand superior in power to that ofa cabinet jposition. His re-election to the speaker- Iihip of the next house of representatives is jassured beyond a possibility of a doubt. !His experience in that office makes his jservices of incalculable value to his party !and to the country. In fact there is no one !

iv congress to take his place, and his with- Ldrawal from that post at this time jwould almost be a public calamity. ~lt jwould at least subject the Democratic jparty to risks that would be exceedingly |hazardous at this time.

The president has shown a proper appre- 1ciation of and respect for public opinion by |tendering the treasury portfolio to Mr. I•Carlisle. Itwas done because Mr. Cab- i__ isle's well-known conservative views on iall important public questions are in accordwith the lit-st sentiment of the country. Heina lan exponent of tile Democratic idea .

on monetary matters and of the party'spolicy in regard to the tariff. It is possibly ;a public misfortune that Mr. Carlisle !

cannot accept a cabinet position, and yet it Iwould be more of a public misfortune if he jabandoned his present place. This instance i

is an argument in 'favor of the proposed iconstitutional amendment allowing mem- jbers ofthe cabinet to hold seats on thefloor of congress.

FRANCE WILL FIGHT.\u25a0 Hon. George H. Pendleton, who has

for the past two years been the American |minister at Berlin, expresses the belief that jall of the European powers have pacific in- Itentions except France.": He knows that iGermany has no inclination to go to warwith any other nation, but is of the opinionthat she will be forced into a war with theFrench people. - France will have to fightto recover- Alsace and Lorraine within thepresent generation, or make up her mind toabandon claim to those, provinces forever.The rulers of France recognize the fact thatwhen a new generation has grown up inFrance the feeling toward Germany whichnow prevails willall have died out. Therewill be no sentimental disposition then togo to war to recover territory which aformer generation surrendered. Upon theprinciple of Striking while the iron is hot,France is compelled to tight now or never.This being the fact, it would be contrary toFrench nature ifan effort was not madeto wrest the two provinces from Germany.And the effort willbe made at an early day.It is one of those things that will not bearpostponement.

Henry George says the civil conflict oftwenty years ago was a trifle in comparisonwith the contest that is cow being waged be-tween labor and capital. Mr. George evi-dent!y, sees through a irlass darkly. Ifhe hadbeen down at the front twenty years ago, andhad been singed by the fierce fires of warwhich waged all along the line, he would nowhave a more carreet conception of tho magni-tude of that performance.

It is a peculiar fact that all the belligerentand bloodthirsty statesmen of this age aremen who didn't smell gunpowder when therewas a chance to get a whiffof it. Mr. Blameand Senator Ingalls are illustrious evi-dences of the truthfulness of this assertion.

The railroad officials say that it is cheaperto kill a passenger than to cripple him. Thelaw limits the damages for killinga person to

Mr. Knox, who is trying to steal eleventowns from Otter Tail in order to keep Wa-dena county out of the poor house, is one ofthe "cooniest" members in the house. He isa very modest appearing young man, and thefollowing is characteristic of him: Last ses-sion he wanted to get $5,500 fora road fromAitkin to Grand Rapids, a town in Itascacounty. He knew that this was more thanhe could get in any square deal, so he intro-duced a bill appropriating $2,500 to build aroad from Aitkin to Graud Rapids, and nameda set of commissioners to build the road. Hethen introduced another bill appropriating$3,000 to build a road from Grand Rapids toAitkin, and named another set of commis-sioners. The legislature passed both bills,and the state auditor was the fl _t to discoverthat both appropriations were for the samoroad, although running in different directions.When Lnox was asked about it he simply saidhe needed the money and did not know anyother way to get it.

AS INSANE PREACHER.He Shoots His Wife, Tries to Kill

Ward, rector of the Protestant Episcopalchurch at Englewood, N.

Apart of the wife'sface where the bullet struck is paralized,and doctors fear that the wound will resultsooner orlater in lock-jaw. The clergymanhimself had put the muzzle of the pis-tol close above the right eye andmeant to fire upward into the brain.The ball struck in sideways instead, pene-trating only an inch and a half, lodgingagainst the right temple bone. His condi-tion to-night is serious, but less dangerousthan that of his wife. The rector is un-doubtedly insane.

ABANDONING THE KNIGHTS.

Workmen at Jersey City Reinstatedi In Their Old Places,

On Renouncing Their Allegiance to

the Great Order.

:..'.Newark, N.J., Feb. 22.— tobaccoworkers arid cigarmakers' assemblies of theKnights of Labor of this city have decidedriot to obey the order of the general assem-bly of the Knights. The order was adoptedin October of last year, and provides thatall persons engaged in the cigar trade whoare knights and members of the Interna-tional Cigarmakers' union shall with-draw from tlie union. . This is the oldfight between the union and the knights inregard to the use of the labels of the twoorganizations. The union claims that theadmission ofthe Progressive cigarmakersto the. knights has injured their trade inthis city, as it allows the sale of foreign inopposition to home made goods.

. A State Convention.Troy, N. V., Feb. 22.— state conven-

tion of Knights of Labor was held here.to-day. Two delegates were present fromeach of the District Assemblies Nos. 40,49, 60. 03. .05, OS. 75, 85, 91. 104, 147. 149.152 and 104. The convention is not for thepurpose of forming another state working-men's assembly, but to discuss matters per-taining to the Knights of Labor and tosolidify the order in the state. The con-vention may decide to agitate the questionof'forming another state assembly of theorder. . -

. JAMES K!S«___._. LOWELL.

He Promised Chicago a Lecture onAmerican Politics, But Puts ThemOff With a Talk About Hichard111. \u25a0-.\u25a0.;;;;:Chicago, Feb. 22. — James Russell

Lowell was greeted at Central Music hailthis afternoon by a brilliant audience, as-sembled to hear him deliver an address on"American Politics." Every seat in thehall was taken long before the time Mr.Lowell was expected. On the platform wasa distinguished array of gentlemen, includ-ing ex-cabinet members, federal and statejudges, generals.and lesser military officers,bishops ami other ecclesiastical digni-taries and many of the foremostrepresentatives of the comm ercial interestsof Chicago. On behalf ofthe Union leagueclub, Gen. George W. Smith, introducingMr. Lowell, explained that the address wasthe first of an annual series under theauspices of the club, the idea being to in-augurate, ifpossible' a revival ofthe gen-eral recognition of the birthday of Wash-ington and cultivate among tlie people ahigher political culture. Mr. Lowell, oncoming forward, was greeted with pro-longed applause. He said:• Ladies and Gentlemen: When Ireceivedthe invitation to speak here to-night, and in-deed, until a short time ago, 1 had an impres-sion I was to speak as one of a course. Itwas an erroneous-impression, Iknow, but itwas a sincere one. I was offered my choiceof two topics, polities or literatureand atfirstIchose politics, but Inow appear in anew capacity to announce a change of pro-gramme. After havingwritten an address onpolitics, when I came to read itover 1 felt that I stood in a verydelicate position. I was to address amixed audience, an audience composedof both parties. I was not speakingin my own person but as the representativeof a club composed of both parties. Now Ibelieve Ihave been in the habit at times ofspeaking my mind pretty strongly, but Ifound this was an occasion on which I wasplaced in a delicate position, where Icouldnot express myself with entire franisness, asone speaking in my own person. You allknow, of course, quite as well as I do, that atext is a mere brutum fulmeu without directand immediate illustration, and 1have observed, as 1 dare say you have,that direct and immediate illustrationsseem to have some personal . applica-tion in them. ; Direct applications andIllustrations seem to have gone to theschool of the prophet, Nathau, and if they donot say in so many words "thou art the man,"they always seem to imply it. It seemed tome 1 had better throw up my political dis-course, though with great reluctance, be-cause Icould not make it to my mind, and Ishall fall back on the other limb of the choiceoffered me--that is some literary topic. Iam themore convinced of the wisdom of the choicesince my arrival in Chicago,for it would causeme the greatest possible regret if any word ofmine should mar the cordiality of a welcomewhich will be one of the pleasantest recollec-tions of my life. I shall therefore ask you tolisten to a few words of criticism and thenapply them to the play of "Richard III."andthe absence of certain things in , that playseem to indicate to my mind that it is notShakespeare's work."• The speaker then proceeded with a dis-sertation on "Richard III,"making no al-lusion to politics. American or otherwise.To say that tlie audience was greatly sur-prised is to put the situation very mildly.- Afew people left the hall, but the address re-ceived from the majority of the audienceclose attention, and at its conclusion Mr.Lowell was loudly applauded.

An elaborate banquet was tendered toMr. Lowell to-night by the Union. Leagueclub. Covers were laid for 325 guests. Theprincipal speakers were Congressman-electJem Baker, Gen. Lucius Fairchild and Mr.Lowell. The remarks of Mr. Lowell wereof an. informal character, but werewholly devoted to a discussionof the various phases of. politics in thiscountry. . The . burden of the speech wasthat the so-called "practical politician" andthe corner grocery politician must go. Hedid not give any further explanation forchanging the subject of his afternoonaddress, and none has been definitely ascer-tained, although the matter was the sub-ject of much of the conversation of thebanquet.

_• "*A Horrible Confession.Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 22.—A con-

fession horrible in details was made by thecolored woman, Hannah May Tubbs, whowas arrested Monday. She declared thatWakefield Gains, whose limbless and head-less trunk was found in a pond, was mur-dered in her house on Richard street in thiscity by John Wilson j or Wallace; that thevictim's remains were . dismembered - byWilson: that the brute made awaywith the . head, legs and arms;that .she . carried the trunkof the body to Eddiiigton and threw it intoa pond. Jealousy on the part of Gains andWilson regarding a pretty mullatto girlnamed Annie Richardson was the motivefor the crime. Wilson was captured to-night here. The confession is horrible inits details. Itseems that Gains attackedWilson and there was a . terrible struggle,from Which Wilson emerged a corpse.Then in a perfectly cold-blooded way Wil-son dragged the body from the cellar andcut it up with a butcher's cleaver..; He gotthe woman to take away the body, vwhile .!he disposed of the head. and legs. .It is notknown where the latter are. .

Coinage and Precious Metals.Washington, Feb. 22.—The acting sec-

retary of the treasury to-day sent to thespeaker of the house, communications fromthe director of the mint, the comptroller ofthe currency and the assay commission, urging amendments ot the laws governing theannual assay of coins so as to provide forholding future meetings of the commissionat Washington, the selection at random byan officerof the mint bureau of the coins tobe tested and the payment of a per diemcompensation to the members of the com-mission. The existing law is said to fail tofurnish sufficient evidence of the qualitiesof the coins for the reason that it allowsthe selection to be made by mint officers.The report of the director of the mint con-taining statistics of the production of theprecious metals in the United Statesfor the calendar year ISSO wastransmitted to congress to-day.From the report It appears that the pro-duction ofgold during ISSG exceeded that ofany previous year since 1880, and almostequaled the production of that year. Thisamounted to _ 5.000,000 in 1886 against$31,800,000 in 1885, an increase of over$8,000,000. The production of., silver, asnear as can be ascertained, was 549,895, -930. The amount of gold- bullion im-ported into the United. States was §17,947.---518. and the exports §27,862, t.7. Theimportations were made almost .exclusively,"since August last. There was also im-ported gold coin of the value of §23,301,603,and gold coin was exported to the value of$13,393,863. The total exports of goldbullion and coin wa3 $41,281,276, whichcorresponds almost exactly with the amountimported into the United States, so thatthere has been a slight gain by tlie move-ment of gold to and from the United Statesduring the calendar year.

Thegood-natured crowd was one representativeof almost all classes of people and allstyles of dress. Most of the ladies werein street costume. The garb of the gentle-men ranged from the conventional dresssuit to a box coat and reefers jacket. Col.Wilson, United States army, made the pre-sentations.

He Gels One Year in £ rison forStoning a Street Car.

Boston, Mass., Feb.' 22.—Patrick Car-rol, a. pleasant, good-looking young man,was arraigned in the Cambridge municipalcourt yesterday on a charge of throwingstones at a Cambridge horse car during theriot of Sunday evening.

"Iam guilty, judged" said he, "but I .wasdrunk and did not know what I was doing." .-,

"Have pity on me and his babies," criedMrs. Carroll, "he is all there is. between meand the poor house." . . . >.

• In pronouncing sentence Judge Orcuttsaid: . ;~_f . . -

Ifthere is one thing which has been settledin the criminal courts of this country itisthat drunkeuness is no excuse for crime. Aman is just as liable for a . crimecommitted while drunk as whilesober, although the fact - of . hiscondition may -sometimes'-., weighin mitigation of sentence. Inthis case, how-ever, it might have been an assault with, in-tent to kill. The man who throws a stone ofthe size that this man did at a'cat* in whichare many passengers, ladies and childrenmighthave caused death, may fairly be calledguiltyof au assault with intent to kill.. Al-though the result does not turn out to beserious, it is the same offense. It Is a seriousone and should be punished severely. It hascome to a pretty pass that people in a civil-ized community cannot travel in railroad carswitnout running the risk of an attack of tbiskind. In this case I propose to impos° a sen-tence that the defendant will remember andone which willbe a lesson to others who mayhave an idea ofcommitting a like crime.

Carroll was sentenced to one year at thehouse of correction.' ~

"What about the ladies?" to which thechair responded, "and ladies of the con-vention, particularly the lady from Wis-consin." Having thus started he ,proceeded to say that the objectof this convention was to organize a partyfor the common good of the whole people,to guard tlie Weak against the strong. Hewished it understood that this party wasnot the party of anarchy, though it was afact that anarchists were not much heardof until there was an undue number ofmillionaires. Now, it was the duty of thisnew party to guard equally against the ex-actions of the one class and the robberies ofthe other. [Applause.] His address wasdevoted largely to advice in regard to thetilings to be avoided in making the plat-form, and against the blandishments ofpoliticians after the party had been organ-ized and started into public notice.

This wassharply opposed as giving opportunity forquestionable conduct in casting votes byproxy.'" The amendment was lost by a. strong vote and the report was adopted. C.A. Power, of Indiana, who said he was not. a delegate, but a guest, asked leave to pre-sent a memorial on behalf of a Union sol-dier. Leave was granted, and Mr.Power took the stand, when Mr. Shaw, ofMissouri, arose to a question of privilege forthe protection of the convention. He calledattention to the fact that the Union soldierswere invited to send delegates here, andthey should have been represented. Sev-eral others objected, but the chair ruledthem out of order. Mr. Power then went,on to say that he was appointed to comeand ask for a piank in the platform tostrike out the present pension laws andmake an equitable adjustment of

The plank -he de-sired to have inserted was that every sol-dier's discharge should be his pension certi-ficate.. The memorial was sent to the com-mittee on resolutions. Quite a number ofresolutions were offered and sent to the samecommittee without reading by Gen. Bur-gess, Mrs. Martin Todd, of Michigan, ad-dressed the convention. She began by say-ing that if the words of James G. Blame,spoken in Pennsylvania last September, weretrue, there was no cause for the conven-tion. He said that the workingman "hadprosperity behind him and prosperity beforehim." But. she said, the wordsof Gen. Logan contradicted in amanner Mr. Blame, when inexcusing himself for not speaking hisworkingnien\s speech any longer, he said:"The people do not . elect senators andpresidents, and therefore 1 must make myspeech to those who do." Taking this as atest, Mrs. Todd went on to .say the work-ingman, even with the ballot in his hand,had not been electing the officers of thisgovernment for years . He had been dis-franchised by the machinations of grindingmonopolies and the wage system of thiscountry. She pointed out

[Cries of"Assassins,*' "murderers," "murderingthieves.' ] "Ileave the saying of the badwords .to the gentlemen," said the speaker.She thought Henry George did not go farenough, in that he did not see the evil ofthe money system. She declared that underits /.working a man might be aslave on free land. Mrs. Todd closed witha fervent appeal for immediate and harmo-nious organization. She was heard withintense gratification aud given a rousingvote of thanks., After a long and noisydiscussion about opening the hall to citi-zens,. the convention. at 1:45 p. m. ad-journed until 9 o'clock to-morrow morning.

THE SOU THE SOCIETY.

The ._ember* Likteu to a Post Fran*' dial _ all. by Gen. I' _ ing.

New York, Feb. 22.—The first annualdinner of the Southern society of NewYork was given here to-night and attendedby many representatives. Speeches in re-sponse 'to toasts were made by and lettersof regret received from Mayor Hewitt, Ed-itor Grady, ofAtlanta, Senator Butler, W,L. Trenholm and others touching uponphases in the history of the South and therestoration of good feeling since the war.The principal speech was by Gen. ThomasEwing, who said:

"Ohio and her sister states of|the Northwestare proud and happycto be reminded of theirkinship with Virginia,"remarked Gen. EwingIn opening. He then traced the relations lipofthe sections and added: "Whenever Vir-ginia sits at the head of the table

OHIO CLAIMS A SEATas one of the family." Other utterances fol-low: "Ibelieve that, in spite of the infinitedistresses of the war, the liberation '. ofthe slaves, the .temporary overthrowof j.. the industrial system ..of theSouth, . and the needless losses andhumiliations . of reconstruction, there

I is more ofrespect and fraternal ; feeling' be-I tween the South and North to-day than; ever| before since the . slavery agitationv be_unthirty, years ago. "Gentlemen, the/ Northcraves a loving and lasting peace . with' theSouth. It asks no humiliating concession.. It

| recognizes as a chief cause of the ; war the

I constitutional question of the rightof seces-sion, which question until settled by tho warhad neither a right nor a? wrong side to it.Our forefathers simply evaded it in framingthe con.tituti on, believing if itwere settledeither way the union of all the thirteen statescould not be accomplished. _ So they left thequestion of the rightof secession In the lapor the gods—committed It to the chances ofthe future, and then the war; came on andsettled it forever." The Northern people arenot so mean, fanatical or foolish as to com-plain of the South that it believed then, andbelieves now, that It bad the right side ofthat question of constitutional construction.How could we respect the South if it wore tosay now that it was not sincere; then? Or ifit were to pretend that the cuffs and blows ofthe war hud

CHANGED ITS CONVICTIONSas to the true interpretation of the constitu-tion as origiually adopted? Surely, with theauthority of Jefferson and Madison in favorof the Southern view, and Washington andHamilton in favor of the Northern, each sidecan admit at least tbe sincerity of the other.It is enough that North and South alike agreethat the question has been settled by war al>solutely and forever in favor of the Northernconstruction. The; North, t too, recog-nizes the fact that all .the pro-voking causes of . the war grewout of slavery, for the establishmentof which the North and South and Englandwere all responsible—if, indeed, such tre-mendous facts as the establish ment and over-throw of slavery here are not part of theplans of the Almighty as to which we arefoolish to parcel out responsibilities." Gen.Ewing belie, that the republic had solvedthe problem of self government, but therewas a tremendous question yet unsolvedwhich was rising unbidden in this and everyuolightened nation.: Itwas the question of-the proper distribution of current earningsbetween capital and labor. The means of

SOLVING THIS PROBLEMin the United States fell chiefly, within thepowers over the revenue, the currency, thepolice and private corporations. "The solu-tion will not be promoted in America, atleast," said Gen. Ewing, "by anarchicalassaults upon public authority, nor by con-j fiscation of real or personal property,

j nor by intimidation of industrial workers^nor, on the other band, by police interferencejwith the right offree assemblage, nor by bandsof hired banditti under the pseudonym of

j detectives, nor by the stool-pigeons of cor-; porations sitting as legislators, but the people! at the ballot box, and through the enactmentj of such laws as will tend to adjust distribu-

| tion ol the wealth which labor and capitali combined created. Let uf>. gentlemen, and

all others who have borne the heat andburden of civilwar, commit it and its issuesto the past, and join the incoming generationin settling this greatest of industrial ques-tions In such way as shall be just to all am?best for the masses or the people."
