Francaise, the organ of Gambetta, con-
tinues the advocacy of the plenary

names alone would have the effect Of
alarming France and Europe.

becoming: Outrageous and is largely cop
led by reactionary prpers.

plicity in the Chaudebex execution it
warns the reactionaries that it is
better in their own interest to use the
word execution" as little as possible.
They should beware of reminding the
radicals that the assassins of communist
leaders are still unpunished.

OF COURSE.
But FIRST Catch Them

New York, Oct. 14.-A Washington
special says additional instructions
have been telegraphed to Agent Stan
ley, and special agents have been
despatched with. explicit orders how to
act in the event of the White River
Utes accepting the terms laid down in
the kilograms to Gen. Sherman and
Agent Stanley.
The secretary of the interior will
not under any circumstances approve
any step that proposes to condone the
murder of Meeker and tho killing of
Thornburgh and the men of his COM
mand.
The White River Utes will be met
fairly with the statement that they
have forfeited every claim to debating
terms, and that they must surrender
themselves as guilty parties and coop
crate with the government in bringing
the chiefs responsible for the outbreak
to justice.
On no other terms will they be per-
mitted to suffer peace.

New York, Oct. 14.--A Washington
special gives the names of the appli-
cants for appointments to vacant sec
ond lieutenancies from civil life, who
having failed in the examination have
through influence at Washington pro-
cured new trial. Among them is a
son of Col. Mccoy, of Sherman's staff.
The father is very anxious to get his
boy into the army, and re-examina-
tion has been ordered, beginning to-
morrow at the war department.
Much dissatisfaction is expressed
among the other applicants who lack
the influence to obtain re-hearing at
this favoritism in the army.

Sherman and Schurr.

Washington, Oct. 14.-Gen. Sherman
and Secy. Schurz bad several confer
ences to-day about the Ute difficulty,
and the war and interior departments
are acting in perfect harmony, as they
have done in all matters relating to the
Ctes. There is no truth in the rdmors
that these two departments are trying
to make one another responsible for the
troubles that have occurred. The sec
retary Of the interior has sent a special
agent to Los Pinos to do all that may
be possible with Ouray and other
friendly Indians, to secure the surren-
der of the guilty parties and to discov-
er and rescue the female members Of
the Meeker family.

says If gold continues to leave England
and France as it has lately it will soon
become necessary to consider the possi-
bilities of measures to stop the outflow.

what action to take when the French
authorities make move by directly or
indirectly raising the premium on gold
to such an extent that the whole Incl
dence Of the United States demand is
thrown on this country.

Figures Over the Democrats
and GreenbackeTs-Glory
Enough.

Columbus, Oct. 14.-Tho republicans
claim the legislature ON a. report O
10000 republican majority in Cincin
natl and Hamilton county. The demo
Gratis do not concede this. In 440 pre-
cincts, wards and townships there is 9
net republican gain of 6,62S.
Columbus, Oct. 14-11:50 p. m.-Re-
turns from $50 precincts, wards and
townships show a net republican gain
of $3.50.
Cincinnati = Midnight The vote
polled in this city and county was prob.
ably the largest in its history. The day
was clear and pleasant, and large
number of business men were Mt the
polls during part of the day. The re-
turns are coming in very slowly, not
one-fifth of the vote yet being known.
If the republican gain in those districts
reported continues, the republican ma
jority in Hamilton county win be about
5000.
The name of Williams, the colored
candidate for the legislature ON the re-
publican ticket, has been quite extern
sively scratched, but it is not unlikely
that Williams and the whole of the re-
publican ticket are elected by majori-
ties. ranging from 1000 to 5000. The
constitutional amendments were lost
entirely.
Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 15.-The chair
man of the democratic executive COM
mittee comedies the election of the
entire state republican ticket, but
claims that sufficient returns have not
been received to determine the COM
plexion of the next legislature, and
thinks that later returns will show
large democratic gains in several coun-
ties of the state.
The chairman Of the republican ex-
ecutive committee claim3 the election
of Fosterby 5000 majority, and thinks
that the republicans will elect majority
of the members of the general assembly.
Columbus, Oct. 15-1:40 a. m.-At
this hour we have the returns Of the
vote on governor from over one-fourth
of the state, which shows republi-
can gain of 7,400, and indicate re-
publican majority in the state of not
less than. $4,000. Definite returns of
the result on members of the legisla-
ture have not been received, and the
legislature is claimed by both parties,
with the chances in favor of the re-
publicans.

DUTY OF ONE POsTOFFLCE CLERK.
To Be Impudent and Read Letters In
Transit.

10 be -1mpudent and Read Letters In
Transit.
The ways of the postoffice department are
past finding out. On Saturday afternoon
gentleman who was mailing some letters at
lamp-post box, accidentally dropped in an
unsealed and unstamped envelope, addressed
to the GLOBE, which he had designed to
hand into the office in person. When the
letter carrier gathered the letters the gen.
tleman called his attention to the unmail-
able document, but the carrier said he must
apply at the postofice to obtain it. The
gentleman accordingly went to the postoffice
and calling upon Mr.. Bronson, one of the
clerks, described the letter, told him it was
unsealed and unstamped, and of course
could not be delivered, and asked it's return.
MIR. Bronson at first told him
he could not return it, but
finally looked it up, and finding it as de-
scribed declared, in an insolent manner, that
he would not give it up until he had read
it. The gentleman told him he had no OBJ
lection to his reading it but that he had no
right to 10 so. That it was none of his duty
to read letters. Mr.. Bronson replied in the
lmpudent and churlish manner in which he
usually does public business, that he qooalld
read it and if there was any fuss about it he
would not surrender it at all. He accord
ingly read it and then surrendered it to the
owner.
The document in question did not happen
to be private matter, but so far as the i'm
pudent clerk was concerned it might have
been and the same rule would have applied.
It is due DR.. Day and also the public that
they should be informed that clerk in the
postofice insists on reading unsealed COM
