Mutual Forbearance and Confidence
Needed.

In these pinching times, when ev-
cry industry is trammeled and dis
tressed, when every chord of the ma
ton is stretched to its utmost ten
sion, there is need of mutual for
bearance and confidence and the
display OF our best manhood
There can be no hard lines laid
down between employer and the en-
ployed if we would tide over to-day
and hasten the morrow of brighter
and better things. Everybody must
yield something-of desire, or even
right-for the common good. We
had reached, as we thought and
hoped, the bottom of our troubles,
and the country was looking for
the speedy coming of great relief,
The great railroad strike has upset
all calculations and thrown us back
it is almost impossible to say how
far. Every industry will feel the
iron hand of lawlessness upon it,
and the poor man, who has no
stock in store, will suffer most.
Such a state Of affairs is without
parallel in the history of this cOun-
try. We have had strikes and ri
OTIS, but never has anything been
known of the compass and violence
of the outbreak. The situation is
lamentable and alarming, but is not
without hope. We must make what
allowance we can for the working
men who feel that they have been
denied the means of support for
their families, and we must not lose
our faith in the good sense of the
American people. The judlcious
will grieve, but they will also bear
themselves discreetly, and ex-
ert their influence toward toning
down the excitement and readjust
ing the differences between labor
and capital. Above all things, we
implore the honest workingmen to
beware of the sharpers who prey on
them and make use of them to the
serious disadvantage of labor
This is not a time for alarming SEN
sations. 1t is a time for calmness
and manhood The truth is bad
enough. Let us not eNaggerate it,
nor fan the flames that are already
burning. A great nation must eX-
ert itself to restore its wonted calm,
and return to it's customary peace
full avocations.- Baltimore Gazette.

General Martinez Campos has at
last concluded to tell the truth in an
official manner to the Madrid Gov
eminent about the situation in Cuba.
He has reported what has been
manifest to the world for some time
that the Cuban insurgents are too
sharp for him: that it takes five
hundred spanish soldiers to look
after ten rebels, and that $4,000
fresh troops will be necessary in
order to "crush the rebellion II
is likely that the $4,000 men Cam
pos took out with him have been
thinned down to handful. Since
October, 1869, Spain has sent nearly
100000 soldiers to fight the insur-
gents, and she will doubtless have
to send 100000 more to keep Ha-
vana out of the hands of Maxine
Gomez. General Jovellar is report
eel To be on the point of resigning
the Captain Generalship, and Gen
eral Blanco is TO succeed him.
Since the rebellion broke out under
Lersundi, in 1865, there have been
ten changes in the Governorship of
the island under nine different Cap
tains General. 1t is difficult to see
where the Madrid Government is to
get the money so send $4,000 men
to Campos to prosecute the war in
the Cinca Villas. Spain's debt now
is over S2,555, 100000, and the
money markets are not open to her,
while she has lamentably defaulted
in the payment of interest. The
last loan of $I2, 100000 was secured
by the revenue receipts at Havana
but the impoverished condition of
the island is making that security
daily more Co0r. Jour.

1t is estimated that the total loss
o: earnings on the railroads where
freight business has been suspended
during the strike, has been over one
million dollars per day. Add to
this the actual loss ty destruction
of railroad property, and the Incl
dental loss to commerce and indus
try, and two million five hundred
thousand dollars per day would be
moderate estimate of the damage
inflicted on the interests of the
country by the strike. If any ben

ANOTHER ABDUCTION.

CHILD OF WEALTHY PARENTS ENTICEo
FROM NEW YORK PUBLIC SCHOOL.
From the n. Y Evening Post of yesterday
A gentleman visited police headquar-
ters this morning, and told remarkable
story of abduction, which. if true, reser.-
bles in many respect, the stealing Of 1T
tie Charlie Ross in Philadelphia. The
statement was to the effect that John
Kahn, wealthy butcher, doing business
at No. Sc Centre Street, in this city. sends
his two children, Annie, aged fourteen
years, and John aged six years, to the
school connected with the church of the

came up to the child as he was standing
in front of the school, and talking pleas
emily to him, finally gave him a twenty
FIVE cent silver piece, and telling the IT.
tie fellow what fine things could be
bought for it induced him to go away
with him. The children who witnessed
the occurrence thought at the time that
the man was acquainted with the boy,
and consequently no alarm was giveI
until the child's sister inquired for him.
She hastened to her fathers house, ana
was then informed that her brother had
not been home. A search for him anu
his abductor was instituted, but without
avail. A number of the children who
saw the boy.abducted visited police head :

The license Lavv.

In the last issue of your paper see an
article which does not charge in terms
but insinuates, that the license law in
juriously effects the revenue. This in
sinuation is on the statement of some one
"who is in position to know" Who he
is do not know or care, but do know
that he knows nothing about it or else
makes very illogical statement. He
says that in 1873, when iC went into ope-
ration, 107 persons were refused license,
and at 500 each, these refusals lost to
the State S10,700. Very we'll; whose
fault was it? 1t was the law that made
it possible to realize this S10.700 How
can it be charged with losing il to the
State? If he means to say it was the
fault of the judges, who refused the
licenses to these 107 persons, why does
he not say so? But the truth is the law
was not intended as revenue measure
neither the Christian Legislators who en-
acted 1t, nor the Christian people who
clothed them with the power to do SO
ever intended that; but they did intend
1T as police measure to restrain and
regulate a traffic which could not be
wholly abolished. 1t was in this intent
and with this view it was passed, and
notwithstanding all the open and insidu.
Gus attacks that the liquor dealers and
their allies have made upon it, it has
worked well and satisfactorily. 1t has
promoted temperance and good order; il
has almost emptied our jails and greatly
diminished the criminal calendar in the
two lower counties at least, and if it has
not done so in Wilmington it is because
it has not been as faithfully executed a:
it should be. And if the revenue of the
State has not been increased by the fee.
for the 107 licenses refused the people O

Messrs. Payne, Abbott, and Hunton
Chosen 10 Represent the House
Democrats

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-The Democrats
of the House met this evening to complete
the delegation on the Tribunal from Con-
gress, and q long session was held before
the result was finally reached. In addi-
ton to the names which had been prom
lnently mentioned in connection with
the high honor, scattering ballots were
given for great number. of less promin-
ent members, and it required long time
to come down to bed rock. Mr.. Payne
of Ohio, whose position as Chairman of
the House branch of the joint committee
recommended him favorably to the mem
bers, was selected without delay. He
was decidedly averse to serving on the
committee, as he had previously urged
and made special requests that his name
should not be presented. He was finally
prevailed upon, however, to yield to the
wishes of the caucus, and his selection is
regarded as eminently wise. He is a
thorough lawyer and q cute, fair-minded
man. For the other two vacancies there
were numerous candidates-Wm. Il .
Morrison, Judge Abbott, Eppa Hunton,
Judge Lynde, Fernando Wood, jerks OF
Pennsylvania, and several others. The
balloting became exceedingly spirited
between the three prominent candidates
I-Hunton, Abbott, and Wood; the latter
gentleman, whose name had scarcely been
mentioned in this connection, suddenly
developing strength which seemed likely
to carry him in. Mr.. Hunton was first
elected after Mr.. Payne. He was also
one of the joint committee, is a fine law
yer, and commands the confidence and
respect of both parties. There were three
ballots taken before the result was reach
ed, and on the last Judge Abbott was
chosen over Mr.. Wood by large major
ty. Judge Abbott is a graduate of Har-
ward College, was long Superior Court
Judge in Massachusetts,, and has been
in public life for many years.

the slcighing excellent. The only OBJ

of about three feet wide, but they were

leaped over it at bound.

THE DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.
SENATORS THURMAN AND BAYARD
NAMED FOR THE ELECTORAL
COMMISSION


WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-The Demo
cratic Senatorial caucus held this morn
ing was free from excitement. Before the
members convened, the opinion seemed
general that the most eminent and worthy
selections would be Senators Thurman
and Bayard, and to this there was not one
dissenting voice. They were chosen by
acclamation. Senator Thurman made an
effort to have himself relieved, urging that
the labor involved would be heavier than
he thought he could undertake, and he
rather disliked the burden of responsible
ty in case of such great Importance
This request was received with a protest
by all the members, and he was forced to
accede to the wishes of the caucus. Sena-
tor Bayard accepted the trust with the
same misgiving, but pledged himself to
perform the duties according to his best
abilities. Senator Cockrell placed Sena-
tor White in nomination for one of the
tellers on the part of the Senate, and he
was unanimously elected. The choice by
the Democrats is regarded by the liberal
Republicans as in favorable contrast to
the work of the Republican caucus, while
of course it gives general satisfaction to
the Democracy.
| The Electoral COMMISSION may now be
considered to be made up. 1t is the gen.
orally accepted opinion here that Justice
Bradley will be the fifth Justice and the
fifteenth man on the commission. The
makeup of the commission will therefore
| be:
Justices Clifford, Miller, Field, Strong.
and Bradley.
Senators Edmunds, Morton, Freling
huysen, Thurman, and Bayard.
Representatives Payne, Abbott, Hun
ten, Hoar, and Garfield.
The commission will meet on Wednes-
day to hear the announcement of the
fifth Justices name, ro provide rooms, to
select assistants, and to appoint commit
tee on rules, Marshal Nicholay Of the
Supreme Court says that there will be 10
objection to the joint commission sitting

SPECIAL MEETING LAST EvENING-A
voLUMINoUs REPORT REAp-NEw
SIENmER SWORN IN.
A special meeting of the Board of Edr-
cation was held last evening, for the pur-
pose OF hearing the report of the special
committee that was appointed in pursu-
ance OF resolutions passed at the special
meeting held on January 1th, to visit No.
school and examine into the "manner
OF promotions" If the time to complete
the course OF studies could be shortened,
il the expenses of the school could in any
way be reduced.
Ihe committee in conjunction with the
visiting committee of that school made a
thorough examination of the school, and
prepared a voluminous report covering 80
pages OF legal foolscap, which occupied
one hour in reading. The report will be
printed and distributed and as it would
be impossible to print it in full owing to
the want OF space, we give that part in re-
lation to
FINANCES.
On the question of Finances the COM
mittee made an exhaustive report, but
owing to the want of space we are obliged
to ourtail, and only give the main features
OF it, the part that most interests the pub
lie, that Of the receipts and expenditures.
The report states that from January lst
1888, to December 31st, 1873, the City
Council appropriated for the use of the
public schools, the sum of $451 ,649.47,
but only paid into the treasury of the
Board $416,911.92, thus leaving defici-
ency of $34, $3.50, again the report says
| "lt is also matter of record that theCity
Council actually collected from schoo
taxes, during the period referred to, the
sum of S13, ,Sl3.70 more than they paid to
the Board" The report continuing
shows the amount asked for, and received
