ON SUICIDE BENT.
Excitement on. Exchange Street Last
Evening.

About 10 o'clock last evening, as a we'll
known citizen was standing in front of the st.
Julian Hotel, he was astonished at seeing a
woman rush past him screaming and sobbing,
and believing her, from her appearance, to be
insane he followed her down Middle street to
Exchange. and when the woman dashed madly
down Exchange street he followed and sue
ceeded in overtaking her on the corner of Milk
street, and detained her long enough to ask
what troubled her. "My boy is lost and I'm
going off the wharf" was the reply, and the
woman broke from his grasp and flew down
the street followed by the gentleman, who was
determined to save the would-be suicide from
herself
On the corner of Exchange and Fore street
he again overlook her and, assisted by two
other gentlemen, succeeded in keeping her at
least comparatively quiet, although she con-
tinued to sob and repeat, my boy is lost" The
gentleman undertook to get the parti cuiars of
the case, and would have succeeded better if
some other parties had not come up, two of
whom were disposed to regard the whole affair
in humorous light and commenced to "chaff''
the sorely troubled mother, and were rebuked
for their conduct by the gentleman who had by
efforts perhaps prevented suicide The hui
morously inclined individuals resented his re.
marks, but as he was supported by all the rest
present, they wisely concluded to continue
their pedestrian efforts up Fore street, but soon
returned and said that they had been insulted
and demanded an apology, which they didn It
get, being advised instead to go go and get
some more beer, advice that they seemed to
resent and warm words followed, ending how
ever in their again moving off.
In the meantime the woman had remained
surrounded by the fast-becoming angry crowd,
mourning in a piteous way, and clearly not in
state to understand how to take care of her
self. At last she grew calm enough to explain
that her only child, a boy of fourteen, had in
the afternoon gone down the harbor and had
not returned. GIVE just lost my husband and
Frank is all I've got" sobbed the poor mother,
and now I've lost him. Under the circum-
stances but little comfort could be given ner,
but she was at last persuaded to return home,
accompanied by two young men who offered
to attend her, and she was assured that the
facts of the case should be reported to the sta
ton, which was done, but the officers had
heard nothing of the missing boy.

There is considerable attention now
being paid to the Mormon question in
the Eastern States, where the people
begin to have Il realizing sense of the
awkward position the United States
government is placing itself in when
1t suffers the crime Of biSamy to he
committed without effort ut punish
ment in Utah, while in other states
and Territories it is prohibited under
severe penalties. Not only are the
people discussing and condcmning it,
hut the newspapers are showing to
the public the enormity of Mormon
ism in all its phases. The govern
ment authorities also show signs of an
awakening to the pressing Importance
of this matter. \ few days since the
New York Tribune said that, though
President Hayes has written very lit
tie in regard to his views about the way
to crush out polygamy in Utah, he
converses about the matter great
deal. His ideas on the subject are de-
cidedly emphatic. He believes that
the Mormons should be deprived OF
political power, and that 40 time is to
he lost.

by its terms seven Years to run before
it can be abrogatcd. At the time the
treaty was made it was argued Ivy the
Californian statesmen that the admis-
sion of Island sugar free of duty would
lower the price of sugars on this coast
more than enough to offset the loss of
revenue to the government, and the
L. $. would get all the trade of these
Islands both ways. The result has
been widely different from that which
was so pleasantly set forth by friends
of the measure, and while the price of
sugar has not been reduced at all the
government is losing revenue to the
amount of 81, 100000 il year, by which
amount the San Francisco sugar deal
ears are annually the gamers uniustly.
The exports to the Sandwich Islands
do not amount to half Il million Il year,
sum insignificant enough to attract
but little attention as II valued factor
in the calculation. Now that people
realize that no benefit arises from the
treaty except to the sugar monopoly
of San Francisco and the Islanders, it
will be terminated at the earliest pos
sible moment
