Tweed and sherman.

We understand Mr.. John Sherman to hold
that Mr.. James E. Andersons testimony
should not be believed, because Mr. Ander-
son refused to take what John offered him
in full Of all obligations on account OF the
vote OF the Felicianas. John and Stoughton
it seems, claiming to be pienipotentiaries
from Hayes direct, assured both Anderson
and Weber that they should be "taken cslre
Of" but when Anderson came to claim
fuifillment of the contract, John tried
to put him off first with the CONSUL
ship at Funchal, and afterwards with $1,000
clerkship. Anderson very properly failed to
see why he should be put off with 1920
place as reward for services involving the
risk Of his life, while stoughton got first

circumstances like the present, to put on a
bold face, but those who are cognizant of all
the facts know very well that John is to-day
the most thoroughly alarmed man In the
United States Last winter, when We took
occasion to accuse John Sherman of offenses
amounting to felony, great many people
expressed wonder that he did not respond
We knew very WE'LL however, why he kept
his peace But for the decision Of the Su-
prene Court OF that State, justice would have
overtaken him ere this. He has done his best
to prevent the present Investigation, and has
thrown most of the obstacles ia it's way that
have been thrown. But such g. man cannot
always succeed by such appliances. John
Sherman is not more powerful now than
Tweed was eight years ago Tweed was
never a more thorough criminal than John
Sherman is now.

PRESSURE ON THE PORTE TO AC-
CEDE TO TODLEREN's DEMANDS.
The Rumored Demand That the Porte En-
force the withdrawal Of the british
Fleet, and Permit Russian Occupation
of the ROsph0rus. the Result Of Panic.

LONDON, May ,s.-The news from Constan
tinople has tendency to check the optimist
conclusions favored by st. Petersburg tele-
grams. The former, however, is not fully
understood or credited where it is accepted as
true. The action taken is thought to be mil
itary strategy. which will be overruled by the
Russian government now that peaceful views
prevail.
Although Gen, Todleben's demands for the
evacuation Of Shumla, Varna and Batoum,
the removal of the Turkish camp at Maslak,
and permission to occupy Buyukdere, do not
take the form OF an ultimatum, there is being
very strong pressure brought to bear on the
Porte to accede to them.
Great excitement prevails in Constantine

forcisle occupation. OF the Bosphorus, Is dis
credited by the fact that Prince Lobonoff, the
Russian ambassador, will have an interview
with the Sultan, to present his credentials,
to-day, and has an appointment to meet Mr.
Layard, the British ambassador, on Tues
day.
Other rumors such as that the Russians
have demanded that the Porte enforce the
withdrawal OF the British fleet and permit
the Russians to occupy both sides OF the Bos-
uhorus are clearly the result of O panic.

testified to facts which led to suspicious that
he had attempted to kill his wife by giving
her slow poison, but when Amadeus Shadone
tain confessions Of Mrs Vosburgh the accused
clergyman bowed his head, shook and wept.
The conversation Pastor Vosburgh had with
his parishoner is pushed forward by the pros

defendant for Kidding himself Of his wife
Then Prof. Doremus and an imposing array
of bottles occupied the space allotted to wit
nesses. He testified that in all the medicines
and beverages submitted to him by Mrs. Vos-
burghs physician and her brothers he found
poison.
The trial is one of the most curious of mod
ern times It's progress is sufficient to reveal
certainly either the pastors guilt or the exist
ence Of terrible plot to ruin him. Mrs. Vos-
burgh is to take the stand Monday.

The Army Augmentation Rin.

WksHINGToN, May 18.-After the morning
hour to-day the House went into committee
Of the whole on the army appropriation bill.
and Mr.. Hewitt. of New York. addressed the
house in favor of the bill. and made q gen
eral comparison of the army as it was in 1860
and as it is now, and argued from these prem
ises that it was absolutely necessary to make
a reduction. The people demand economy in
the expenditures Of the government. and he
contended that it could not be had better than
in the army.
In the course Of his remarks Mr.. Hewitt re-
ferred at length to an article recently pub
lished by Gen Garfield in the North American
Repietr, and commented on it to show that
the accusation that the Democratic side was in
favor of a reduction of the army was not true.
He also quoted from Sherman, Hancock and
others in favor of a reduction.

The Cotton Masters 'PrOpOsItiOn-TheyD De-
mand Substantially Surrender ON the
Part of the Operatiyes.

LONDON. May 1S.-The following is the text
of the cotton masters resolution ut Manches-
ter yesterday:
"This committee. having carefully consid-
cred the proposal made by Alderman Pickop.
on behalf OF the operatives. resolves to ar
range for the mills being reopened immediate
ly. Let the weavers, winders. Wrappers, siz-
ers, loomers, etc, connected with weaving
and spinery, and the cardroom hands
throughout the strike district. agree to re-
turn to work at q reduction Of 10 per cent.
and this committee will be prepared to meet
the operatives in three months, or at any
other time in conformity with the usual mode
OF procedure"
The papers carefully point out that it Is
the operatives, and not the masters, who sur
render. and that the meaning Of the resol,l-
tion Is that il the operatives return to work
at a reduction now, they will receive better
wages as soon as employers feel that their
trade can afford it, and not sooner.
Col. Raynsford Jackson chairman Of the
Masters Association, whose residence at
Blackburn. the mob burned, and whose mills
they attempted to destroy. presided, and the
committee, before taking the foregoing action
adopted a resolution expressing deep sym
pathy with him and adherence Of the wanton
destruction Of his property. 1t will be OBJ
served that the action of the committee will
only be effectual if all the operatives Of the
district accept. This will he reported on at
Tuesdays meeting Of the employees.

A Reverend Indian Agent Fraud.

New YORK, May 18.-Accortling to d letter
from Helena this morning the military au-
thorities have discovered startling frauds
upon the unfortunate Indians. The Rannocks
are the victims this time A reverend or ex-
reverend gentleman, who was agent, had not
nocks mounted their ponies and rode away
from him as far as they could go. Their prin-
cipal ground Of dissatisfaction was that sup
plies intended for them were converted to the
agents own use. The beef killed for them
went to supply the hotel of which he was pro-
prietor; their prints, red flannel, blankets and
knives he boxed up and sent home to Wiscon-
sin, where he probably kept a dry goods store
Their pocket handkerchiefs, needles and cot
ton spoOs took the same direction.

Excitement In the shipping Community
Over Russian Purchases of Vessels.

New YORK, May There is good deal
OF excitement in the shipping community in
relation to vessels being purchased by Rus
sian officials Judging from the gossip float
ing around, the Russians have been captured
by a ring, who, intend, If possible, to keep all
the business In their own hands, as they ap-
parently have too much regard for the Rus
sian bear to let him loose among the ship
brokers' The latter gentlemen naturally feel
annoyed that the spoils should pass out of
their hands, when they claim that the Rus
slams have to pay about 100 per cent above
bottom figures.
1t is reported that the Russians are now In
treaty for vessel and that the price which
has been asked is Just $4,000 above that at
which 1t can be bought from regular brokers'
This squabble over The spols will eventually
prove beneficial to the Russians, as, if the
ship brokers do not get an interest, they will
probably let the Russians know Something
aboot the prices that they are paying for fast
steamers.
