TERRIBLE EXPLosIoN.-On Sun
day afternoon the Staten Island steam
er Westfeld, while at the Whitehall
street dock, New York, crowded with
passengers, exploded her boiler. The
con cussion was terrible, SCATTERING the
forward part of the boat and killing
and scalding great number Of people.
The scene is beyond description
Men were struck dumb at their loss OF
wives and little ones, an d women were
distracted at having lost their hus bands
and children, while little children were
crying for their parents who, were lost.
Many persons were blown ov erboard.
A father and mother.had their children
blown from their arms The water, in
an instant, was alive with men, women,
and children, struggling for life. The
total number Of lives lost is believed to
be about seventy, and over one hundred
are more or less wounded There were
about two hundred and fifty persons on
board at the time of the disas ter.
It is said that az imperfect boiler was
the cause of the accident and it is re
ported that the Government Steamboat
inspector of the district is to be called
TO account by the Grand Ju ry for his
criminal neglect. If this official has
been guilty of neglect of duty, it is to
be hoped he will be made terrible ex-
ample Of.

CHAIRMAN KEYEs.

Some of the Republican papers Of
the State are demanding in a defiant
manor the removal Of Mr.. E. W
Reyes from his position as Chairman
of the State Central Committee. With
out wishing TO be regarded as the
special champions Of Mr.. Reyes, we
unhesitatingly say that we are opposed
to the issue made on him in his pres
ent capacity, believing that the best
interests Of the Republican party of
Wisconsin will be subserved by his
reelection. No one yet mentioned for
The position can, in our humble judg-
ment, fill the bill as well as Mr.. Reyes,
and until some one, at least equally
we'll fitted for Chairman is proposed,
re consider that it would be the height
Of folly to-insiss on: change. Since
he has occupied the position of Chair
man of the Central Committee he has
successfully managed several hotly
contested campaigns, rejecting credit
on his tact aad ability. Mr.. Keyes is
n situation to be found fault with,
and is possessed of his failings as we'll
as most other men, bat We say it with
out fear of contradiction, that no man
could have discharged the duties, since
he has held the position, With more
satisfaction to the Republicans of Wis.
consin at large than Postmaster Reyes,
and therefore we think change would
neither be desirable nor polite.

CIVIL SERVICE REFoRM-The Chi
cage Tribune suggests new plan in
the appointment Of Pos tmasters. The
proposition is, to require that the Post
mast er General shall appoint as Post
master at any Post Office Qarge cities
excepted that person recommend ed by
the largest number of citizens esiding
within the delivery of the Office, who
will be willing to attest the sincerity
of their recommendation by an oath as
to the competency of the person re-
commended, and as to his good moral
character. The object is to remove
the office Of Postmaster from the field
of political patronage, and transfer it
to that popular selection where person
al integrity, and not partisan interests
would be the governing motive. The
plan would also open the way to the
appointment Of women whenever a ma.
Jority Of a town would ask it.

Fair: "When I looked into the mild

THE FLIGHT OF BULLOCK.
from the Augusta Chronicle. |

Rufus B. Bullock, who has been, for three
wears past, filling the Executive chair OF this
State, has resigned and Benjamin Conley
has assumed the role of Governor by virtue
Of his position as president of the Senate.
The immediate cause or causes which
have Influenced Bullock to resign are not
stated The almost Immediate asso.nblage
of the Legislature, composed, as 1t Is, OF
q large majority of honest, upright men,
who are determined to have thorough ven-
tilation and exposure OF the monstrous VILLAIN
les of Bullock's administration, has no doubt
been the controlling cause which has produced
this sudden but not altogether unexpected
resignation. The recent failure OF kimball
has, no doubt, precpltated this gratifying
action on the part Of Bullock. 1t has been
suspected for some days past that bonds of
the State were issued and paid to kimball
largely in excess of the amount authorized by
law, Indeed. this fraudulent issue OF bonds
has been, within the last few days,
virtually admitted by Bullock's political
friends, and the disclosure OF this monstrous
fraud. in all its vianous deformity, was sure
to have been made in few days. We thought
last week, when Bullock left the State 80 sud-
denly and under the shallow pretexts which
were given BY his friends, that he would not
return. He has had good time-has well
feathered his own and the nests Of his part
ners In fraud and crime, and now, when the
light Is about to be let in on his robberles, he
fees the State, and resigns the seals OF office
to one of his own henchmen.

and on Saturday, when she got up against
your advice, che got i'll and died. Ordinarily I
would mind the recommendation Of the jury
to mercy. but In this case must ignore 1t, for
you deserve no mercy. In my view of the law,
in which the learned district attorney differs
from me, merely, believe, on the evidence
given in this case, you stand to-day In the atti-
tude of a murderer. You sent two human be-
ings to their last account, deliberately, wilful-
ly, murderously. That Is the law. and under
that construction an indictment should have
been found against you for murder in the first
degree. You would stand now in the attitude
nouuce against YOU would be death. quite
concur with the sentiments uttered by my
colleague, Judge Bedford, In regard to
cases of this description, and shall unite
with him In q Recommendation to the
Legislature that the law be changed,
and this felonious and barbarous prac.
tice be ended. You are man of uncom-
mon nerve, as has been exhibited in this trial.
I never saw O man who stood the remarks of
the district attorney and his sweeping denun-
Citations so utterly unmoved. You are an edu-
Gated man. having practiced your profession
abroad before you came here; but you are
dangerous man. I sentence you to seven
years in States prison, with hard labor.
The audience loudly applauded. The pris-
oner received the sentence with stolid look.
and very coolly, to all appearance, walked
back to the pen in the rear. RosenZweig was
subsequently removed to the Tombs. The
corridors and staircases OF the court building,
and the sidewalk in Chambers street, were
crowded with spectators, eager to get look
at the convicted abortionist as he passed from
the courtroom to the prison van ln the custody
OF several officers.
