From the tone OF the Baltimore papers il
would appear that Mr.. Thompson, the work
ingmen's candidate for mayor, is expect
Cd 10 receive a pretty heavy vote a the
election today. The wOrkngmen allege
that their opponents. having possession
Of the election machinery. intend TO
defeat them by fraud, and unfortunately
there has been too much ground Tor charges
OF the kind in a. e history OF past elections n
that city; but It is hardly probable that the
attempt to .'count out 50 formidable and
resOlute a body Of men as the labOring men
Of Baltimore will be seriously attempted.
In Ohio the wCrkingmeu'S candidates
poiled an aggregate o. only q bout IN. 600 votes
IN a total III about 81 Geo. This was rather
small percentage. but party lines We're pretty
strictly drawn in Ohio. and the wO-kingmeT
were generally absorbed in one or the o.hsT
OF the two parties. In Baltimore the work
ingmen will have a better chance to develop
the full strength of their organization, as the
republicans have no municipal ticket in the
field.

The American Institute of Architects
which met in Boston last week felt callei
upon TO pass some resolutions OF advice
touching the long suffering Washington
Monument in this city. This is scarcely to
be wondered at, since the completion of this
monument. like the editing of a newspaper
and the making of a fire, is one of the things
that everybody knows more about than the
persons engaged in II; yet just across the
street from the hall in which the sessions of
the Institute were held stands the crack hotel
of Boston, designed, constructed, decorated
and furnished,-0 Ia Eastlake, and all that
sort OF thlng,-by or under the Immediate
supervision as we are told of one OF the mem
bers OF that august body, the private bath
rooms and water closets of which are without
the slightest possibility of ventilation save
directly through the parlors and bed rooms
with which they are connected, One cannot
help thinking that while sucn crimes against
health and comfort are committed by its
guild, the American Institute OF Architec.s
would do well 10 attend strictly TO its o IN
business, and lei the Washington Monument
severely alone.
The people of Richmond, Va, after some
weeks trial of the new plan of increasing the
revenues OF the state by a tax on malt and
spurious liquors, have approved the use o
lions; and the barkeepers who oppo ied tn
law have thus sustained a signal defeat. At
primary election by the conservatives in
that city yesterday 10 nominate i've candi-
dates for the house of delegates, nominees in
favor OF the Moffet register were chosen by a
decided majority.
Though the immense extent of Russia gives
II the power of producing in its own boriers
all the necessaries of war, the present dsas-
trous conflict has proved so expensive that
the condition of Russian finances is now an
important factor in the Eastern problem.
The funds OF the Gar are running low, Rus
sian bonds are al a considerable discount in
the London markets. while there looms up
before the Impoverished nation the necessity
OF a second campaign and the support OF half
million troops. The Russian papers, in
discussing this vital question, confine them
selves To plans for raising funds from the
subjects Of the Gar. seemingly recognizing
the impcssibility OF obtaining loan from
any of the great money centers outside of
Russian territory. Contributions OF gold aud
silver plate, and various systems OF internal
loan. are suggested as means of meeting the
difficulty. II suffi cient funds can be secured
TO pay the interest on the foreign debt. the
Gar, by paying his own subjects for suppl Ies
in paper-noney resting for its value on his
authority, a mOaey which no Russian would
be impiOus enough 10 refuse, may carry Oh
the conflict 10 "a successful termi nation. But
before that end is reached Russia viii, in all
Likelihood, be weighed dOwn by a deb, far in
excess of that which Expresses the United
States
