New York, Nov. ls.-The Times in
a leading editorial on the future of the
solid south, says: The task Of the re-
publican administration reduces itself
to the judicial organization of civil SER
vice in the south on the one hand and
to the impartial enforcement of all
laws necessary TO the protection Of
equal suffrage on the other. II is the
duty OF the hour, from every point of
view, and 1t affords the only hope of
success. The requirement that appoint
ments in the south should be made with
only so much reference to political
views rs would secure fidelity to the
principal of equal suffrage, and that
should be made rs far as possible among
southern men is not only reasonable but
imperative.

TRIAL OF rAYMAsrER NELSON.
sac Pieaas Guilty and Asks for Mercy

az at-aa - 49, es@H - @-satS
New York, Nov. 1s.-Paymaster
Nelson, who confessed his guilt yester-
day and threw himself on the mercy of
the court martial, showed in his defense
that he had disbursed 81, 7,439. .93i with
out loss TO the government, although
his duties, more particularly on the Pa
cihc coast, were, at times, extremely
hazardous aud attended with great per-
sonal peril. The basis Of his present
trouble was his having u large family to
support and becoming deeply involved
In debt To save himself from the
burden he went into speculation in
wheat. He was at first successful, but
was finally overwhelmed with disasters
SO overwhelming, to quote his own lam
guage, that he became, on account OF
them. practically insane. The Herald
says: Altogether this has been n very
singular court martial. In the conduct
OF the trial, In the first place the char
ges and specifications have been sedu-
lously concealed from the public. In
the second place, the only testimony
has been for the defense, and that only
on the subject Of character. 1t is stated
that the amount of the alleged embez-
Element is about 5000, and that all
the accused hopes or looks for is the
condonement Of the offense on the
ground of his previous good character.

part Of tho duty Of railroads. Until
within recent period .here has been
in this country no effort on the part Of
railroads to carry 1t on. They have
been content not only to permit this
business to be done over their lines by
others, but have fostered 1t by opportu-
mites until 1t has grown into q distinct
and organized branch Of general busi-
ness, different in its characteristics
from the natural and Legitimate trans
action of railroad expressage, and has
grown into public necessity. The
idea cannot now be entertainedIthat
railroads, directly or by indirection can
trammel or destroy express enterprises,

Decrease OF Population In san Fran
cisco.

Boston, Nov. lS.-A San francisco
letter to the Boston Trareller says:
There has been great falling of in
the population OF this city. 1t esti-
mates the decrease at more than Go, 900.
The opinion is expressed that not less
than 10000 more will be compelled to
leave for the want of industrial en-
ployment. The city is overrun with
young hoodlums, nursed in idleness
and having no hope in the future. The
gambling spirit pcrvades the city and
adds much to its misfortune, with no
hopes Of impro sement until the evil is
rooted out, or n new race of industrial,
anti-gamhling people shall displace the
present paralyzed victims of stock
gambling, and until the millions Of
savings now entirely devoted to ticket
gambling shall be invested in the ex-
pansion of industrial pursuits.
