In Massachusetts,, Michigan, Minnesota,
kansas and Nevada, the canvass has attracted
but little attention, the election of full Re
publican delegations having been conceded
from the start. The interest in the First
Michigan district has been a little heightened
by the determined fight made tor Chapman,
called the "Workingmen's candidate" but
really johnson decoy, but it has not been
supposed that the prospects of Mr.. Beaman,
the Republican nominee, have been seriously
endangered.
In New York the debatable ground lies be-

FIRE AND BURGLAR PROOF
DO UBLE CYLIND b r.
s "A If e.!

THE advantage of this Fire and BURGLAR Proof
l. Safe consists in its peculiar construction, The
most serious objection to Safes heretofore in use has
been their liability to destruction by falling from
heights and the impossibiity of rendering the doors
mperviOus to heat particularly in large safes where
the door is double; and in fact the whole front of
square safe is door These and other objections an
pcable to the present mode of making safes are OBJ
Waited by this patent, by constructing it in cyn-
drica shape, with convex tops and bottoms thus Sc
ing the interior to revolve upon pivots, bringing a
smooth, mpenetrable surface of iron entirely across
the outer opening, with no inlet or seam.
Between this inner compartment and the tier
cylinder, is an air chamber, extending completely
around, leaving no connection between the two
structures but the piyots upon which the interior
cylinder revolves. These advantages are manifold:
but we call attention to singular feature of the in
vention; it is, that the inner safe is moveable and
when the outer door is opened the surface of the lat
ter presents an appearance that indicates that the
whole safe is solid mass. The signal Importance of
this fact is EVIDENT for when the inner safe is unoc-
ed and made to turn, its door is Immediately exposed
to view, when the compartments for books, drawers
and pigeon holes are exposed. The frame which con-
tans them is also movable, and revOlves upon piy-
ots SO that when pushed around, brings another Sc
res OF divisions for books drawers and pigeon holes
to the hand thus it is double the capacity of square
safes Not only does this system present greater
sstance to fire. but for the that the sheets
iron cannot part from the filing and of there being
no contact of the inner with the outer surface lex
cept at the pivOts, where the filling is made purpose
y thicker but the bullying front of the interior sur
face, without orifice when turned is equally proof
against burglars. rlss.r9fF-Ir = -
The contour of this safe is more symmetrical and
durable than the old STYLE is susceptible fhgher or
namentation and is from the very nature of the case
easier OF transportation, as it be rolled about like

Three of these districts, the Third, Eley-
eDth and Twelfth, have been conceded to the
Republicans. Five, the Second, Fourth, Sew
enth, Eighth and Tenth, have been regarded
as sure for the Democratic candidates. The
rest have been warmly contested. Morrissey
was the Democratic choice in the Fifth dis
tict, and Fernando Wood in the Ninth. Be-
yond the limits named, every district-17 in
all-was conceded to the Republicans
In New Jersey, the Republican districts
were the First and Second. The Third was
expected to go Democratic as heretofore
Jack Rogers had again saddled him self upon
his party in the Fourth, and we hope has
been defeated by John Hill, now speaker of
the New jersey House OF Representatives.
In the Fifth district the influence of the Cant
den & Amboy railroad was thrown into the
scale for the Conservative candidate, and it
was thought might prevent the election of
George Halsey. who was otherwise good for
majority Of 1900.
In Illinois, the smallest Republican majori-

The Real Issue.

A correspondent of the Morning Journal,
inasmuch as Judge Thurman's opinion,
showing the illegality of Mr.. Comstock's
alleged election as President of the City
Council. has been published in The STATES
MAN, wants an opinion published, sustain
ing the other side. But he sadly overlooks
the present state of the case. Judge Thur
man and Mr.. Noble, two distinguished
lawyers of our city, say in their letter which
has been published in both The STATES
MAN and the Journal, that they do not
agree in opinion on the legal question In
regard to Mr.. Comstock's alleged election,
and that members of the legal profession
also differ on the same question.
If this be so, and we see no reason to
doubt the word of these gentlemen, any
number of opinions may be had from legal
gentlemen, sustaining both sides of the
question. The point now in issueis not the
legality or illegality of Mr.. Comstock's
supposed election, but it is simply whether
the Republican members will or will moi
accede to the plan for the organization Of
the Council, proposed by Messrs. Thurman
and Noble. The Democratic members have
publicly made known their acceptance q
the proposition. The Republican members
are silent. VIII they remain so, till the
time shall have passed by, in which an or
ganization of the Council that will satisfy
all parties, will be of any real usey

The case of John King against Jacob II.
Reese, an appeal from the decision OF a
Justice of the Peace, was tried before
Jury in the forenoon. The action was
brought on a claim for work and labor on
the farm Of the defendant. The defendant,
In his answer, set upa counter claim, deny
ing the plaintiffs right to recover, and
claiming damages for the plaintiffs
alleged abandonment of a special con-
tract for work and labor on the defend
ants farm. The witnesses were examined
and the case argued to the jury by Rankin
and Wylie for the defendant and Bingham
for the plaintiff. The jury returned verz
dict in favor of the plaintiff, for $4S44.
In the afternoon, the two following cases,
which came into Court on appeal, were sub
mitted to the Court, by consent of parties,
without the Intervention of a jury: ii
William Wilson against Thomas O'Harra
and others. Action brought on claim for

paid by plaintiff as surety for defendant on

E. Reeds improvement on Hoop Skirts
seems to be all the 60 among the ladies.
Mr.. Reed being an experienced workman
devotes his whole time and energies to the
improvement Of the articles which he man
ufactures. His crinOlines, with their light
elastic springs, have been tested during the
past year in the larger portion OF the Uni
ted States, and pronounced the very best
ever offered in market. These celebrated
springs are applied to all of Mr.. Reeds
best style of skirts, and furnish to the ladies
a luxury. and comfort which can only be
appreciated by those who are SO fortunate
as to adopt them. They are much lighter
than any double springs now in use, being
less complicated, and not liable to get out
OF order.

The Approaching opera Season.

On Thursday, the 9TH. June, as our read
ers will see by the advertisement in another
column in this journal, the celebrated
Ghioni s. Susini Opera Company, under
the management of Max Strakosch, the pop
ular Impressario, will commence brief
season, limited to three nights, of Grand
Italian Opera. Since the last season which
was SO successful here, this combination has
been largely increased by an accession of
considerable strength. Some of Max Mar
etzek's splendid company OF the New York
Academy OF Music, have joined thistroupe,
and we may safely say that now this is
the finest company of lyric songsters that
ever left the empire city. Since last here,
they have travelled over the entire Union,
and in every city their success was unpar-
alleled. They are now performing in Gin
cinnati, with great success. Any praise Of
ours in advance is unnecessary, as refer
ence to the daily papers of that city will
be sufficient to crafty the curiosity Of our
citizens. @Il Trovatore," "Lucretia Bor-
gia,n and, last night, "Crispino E la Co
mare" were given in styleand manner as
to call for unmitigated appreciation.
The agent informs us the Operas to be
performed here will be Lucretia Borgia, by
Donizetti; the last New York sensation, the
Ricci Bros. famous Opera, Crispino Z Ia
Comare, and finally, Norma. See adver.

On Tuesday night, the Night Express
train from Cincinnati arrived at this poin
with fifteen car loads OF passengers bounc
northward, ,all fine docking men, having those
among them who appeared to be officers
with side-arms. They were quiet and or
derby, minding their own business and say
ing nothing about their affairs or destina'
tion. Outsiders supposed them to be Fe'
mans, or sympathizers with Fenians.
LThe next morning two cars, similarly
laden, arrived here, the passengers taking
the Cleveland road. 1t is estimated that al
least 800 men passed through on Tuesday
night and Wednesday morning.
