THE POLICE JUSTICES OPINION.

81 am therefore Of opinion that Justice

the station-house charged with assault, or
with a violation OF any ordinance OF the
city, and in demanding his release from
custody, was not acting in the lawful dis
charge OF his duty, and that the police off,
Ger was right in refusing to release his pri-
soner.
- am aware that by several Of the ordi-
nanees Of, the city authority is apparently
given the justices to try parties for the Of
fences therein specified, but all OF such or
dinaces were ordained long before the pre-
sent charter was enacted, and being in d.
rect conflict with the section quoted they
are null and void.
"Did Justice johnson unlawfully and
wilfuliy interfere with Captain White while
the latter was In the discharge OF his duty,
or was be wilfully guilty OF any offence
punishable crimlnally!
"For the past ten years justices have been
in the habit OF disposing OF some onences 10

decessors, and up to the present time to
some extent by me.

LONDON, October 5.-The Mark Lane
Express says: During the past week the
weather has been most favorable for secur-
ing the remainder Of the outstanding
grain. 1t must be two or three months
before the English wheats are In condi-
ton favorable for threshing. This aud
the disappointing nature OF the yield have
made holders confident Of an Immediate
future. The market closed firm Friday
with an advance OF one shilling per quar-
ter on Mondays rates. The leading pro-
viucial markets were very frm at the close,
partly the consequence Of the demand Tor
sowing, and there was an advance in some
instances ri two shillings per quarter.
The trade, though firm at enhanced
rates, was not active. Though the actual
imports are smaller, larger millers are
aware OF a large avail able extraneous sup.
ply to confne their operations TO the pres.
ent needs. On Friday in foreign old red
winters and fine whites advanced one
shilling per quarter, and other sorts six
pence and .tenpence. Maize and round
corn were shilling higher on the week.
Mixed American closed at % shillings Cd

A Sick Miner Drops n Candle, With
Serious keAuIts.

LEApvlLIE, October ga FIRE was
started at 8 o'clock yesterday morning in
the shalt house Of the old Vulcan shaft in
Chrysolite mine, caused by sick miner
droppinga candle. The building was con-
sumed and the burning debris fell into the
shaft setting Ii on FIRE.
The Vulcan connects with the Chryso-
lite, Little Chief, Ami, Climax and Little
Pittsburgh mines by levels at the depth
OF one hundred and twenty feet, all OF
which filed with carbonic acid gas and
smoke, driving the men from their work
Of constructing bulk, heads six hundred feet
away. Tweye men were overcome by the
smoke, and barely saved their lives alter
great trouble. Bulk.heads were built,
preventing the fire from spreading. The
flames are now confned to q radius ot
thirty feet from the Vulcan shaft and COM
pleteIy under control. All the shafts are
hermeticaliy closed to exclude the draughts
and will remain so for four days. Work
will be suspended in all the mines for a
week, ana perhaps longer. Nobody was
seriously hurt. The damage will be about
$4,000, caused by The delay OF work. All
the levels and drifts are full Of gas.

The Republican conferees made two
straight nominations yesterday for judges
under the amendments. II there is any
thing objectionable in this action to any.
body they have the Democratic party to
thank for it. The prevailing disposition
amorg Republicans has been to regard the
Judicial elections from a non.partisan
standpoint, aHT an accommodation Of
party views could easily have been had on
the subject. We know that this was the
feeling, and still is, of very many Of the
best class OF Democrats in this county, but
they were over.elaughed in the confer.
ence jus. as they were previously ignored
in the selection of legislative ticket. It
is not strange, therefore, that the Repub.
licans, finding their friendly overtures met
in partisan spirit, should draw back
within their own lines and make two sep.
arate nominations. In one sense this was
necessity after the repulse they received
viz: to satisfy the feeling sroused among
good many Republicans, aud, next, to pre-.
vent a disastrous division Of the party and
consequent naturalization OF its Just
weight in the selection oil judge.

BARNRsyILLR. October5.

Editors IntOiliEeneer
Gainesville is becoming boiling politi.
cal caldron. The quiet, resolute zeal
which prevailed the few weeks past has
kindled into flaming ardor.
One week ago Judge Lawrence and
Prof. Geener arrived on the II A. NJ. train,
q surprise to the Republicans. A meeting
was determined on for that evening in
City Hall. Although the time was so very
short the result was large torchlight
procession, iu which the Garfield Guards,
Garfield Cadets and citizens took part, and
an enthusiastic meeting, the hall being
filed to it's utmost capacity. Both
speakers were surprised and delighted at
the large and cordial reception given them.
On Friday afternoon tho Democrats held
their "mass" meeting. The Hon. G. H.
Pendletop, Gen. Brinkerhof aud others
were announced as speakers. Rather un.
usual efforts were made 10 secure large
attendance and make 40 imposing display.
Delegations were solicited and expected
from many surrounding places. The meet
log was to be held on the fair grounds.
InTee praSb uanu5 WeIt eWPloyeu W
supply muRic for the occasion. The day
came, and 1t was surely one Of disappoint-
ment tn the sanguine. Thero was not less
than 200 voters In the procession, and the
total attendance ct the meeting on the
grounds was not over 600 men, women and
children, Democrats and Republicans.
Pendleton failed TO arrive in time to say
more than q few words at this meeting.
A meeting was announced At the Hall
for the evening. This was well attended
the hall being packed, many persons fail.
ing to get In, Republicans contributed
largely 70 fll the hall. Gov. R. N. Bishop,
PepdIeton and Binkerhof, were the
speakers. The Governor will not be sur.
prised TO hear that as ASpeaker be Is not a
success, Btinkerhod is 1890 aud 40''
talker. Gentleman George was the orator
OF the evening. While he uttered nc
word derogatol y to the character OF Gen.
Garfield he lostth faith Of all reading aad
intelligent auditors by asserting that a
Republican speaker would be as kindly
received, aslwell treated and as free from
