The Sand Los Deriagogwe Sent mp for
SIX MOnths.

In the San Francisco Police Court
yesterday Judge Rix sentenced Denis
Kearney, who was found g,siltyef ut.
tering threatening. and incendiary lam
guage, to six months imprisonment in
the House of Correction, and to pay
fine of $1,000. The magnitude of the
sentence was surprise to Kearney,
who had expected to get off with a
nominal punishment. 1t is probable
that he will take the case to the Su-
preme Court ON a writ of habeds COR
p,s.
In passing sentence on Kearney,
Judge Rix said it was not his duty to
punish the prisoner for similar ofenses
in the past, but to conine himself
strictly to the consideration of the
present case. He would pass judg-
ment without prejudice, feeling or vim
dictiveness, but the sentence imposed
would indicate his estimate of the grav-
ity of the offense. He then passed SEN
tence. Kearney received his sentence
in silence, but his features expressed
the utmost surprise and Indignation.
He had previously stated that he ex-
pected to get off with a fine of $50 or
whereabouts, and after leaving the
Courtroom he freely expressed his an
ger and chagrin, denounced the penalty
as outrageous, and claimed that he
would beat it.

German Syrup is the special prescrip-
ton Of Dr. A. Boschee, celebrated
German ply 4ician, and is acknowledged
to be one of the most fortunate discov-
cries in medicine. 1t quickly cures
coughs, colds, and all lung troubles of
the severest nature, removing, as it
does, the cause of the affection and
leaving the parts in a strong and
healthy condition.. 1t is not an expert
mental medicine, but has stood the test
of years, giving satisfaction in every
case, which it's rapidly increasing sale
every season confirms. Two million
bottles sold annually Beware of med
icines of similar names, lately intro

wElLOCK ON KEARNEY.

Dennis Kearney, the sand lot dema-
gogue, abandoned the dray for the
stump some three years ago. He was
then poor man, now he is said to be
wealthy. He turned his cheek and
tongue to account, and while haranguing
the Workingmen and melting them to
cut loose from the Democratic and Re-
publican parties, was secretly making
hay while the sun shone, by selling out
to the politicians. William We,lock,
. who was Kearney's lieutenant and dep
uty, gives the San Francisco Argus
some very interesting information con-
corning the part played by Kearney in
the recent election in California. We'll
lock says the great majority of the
Workingmen's party were averse to
putting a State ticket in the field.
They had full confidence in DIR. Glenn,
the candidate of the New Constitution
party, but Kearney insisted on putting
White up for Governor, and Williams
for Congress in the Second District, to
insure the election of Perkins to the
Governorship and Page to Congress.
Wellock says of Kearny: 81 consider
him apolitical failure. Every county
he went to failed to give the vote he
proclaimed it would His whole en-
deayors were made to advance the inter
est of the Republican party. His pull
ing down Clunie and Putting up VIII
liams was for electing Page, and might
it not have been for other considera-
tions The great effort he made TO
take down Berry was to elect the Re-
publican nominee. Though he knew
that Berry was retained by the Work
ingmen, he had thousands of tickets
printed and sent into that District for
Workingmen to vote for McKenna, in
order to defeat Berry. His conduct in
this matter is unparalleled. Thousands
of tickets were sent to the Call office
at his direction, and hundreds were
sent to Jim Meets Office for the purpose
of defeating Kalloch, Wilson, 1ilson
and Staley, and electing the, Republi-
can candidates for those offices. %
Wellock further asserts that Thirty
thousand dollars was deposited in
Wells, Fargo & Cos bank by the Re-
publican party, the consideration being
that White should be kept on the
ticket, in order to insure the, Republi-.
can candidates election. Of this cor
ruption fund, $4,000 was paid to J. S.
MeCue and 1000 was paid. to William.

1t appears from this statement, which
ought to be authentic, as Weilock was

Workingmen's party, Kearney was not

TBE RATTLE ora R4VELOTTE

The proyerbial difficulty of being sure of abso-
lute accuracy in historical statements has casually
received "A curious illustration in little cOntro-
yersy which, as we notice in a recent number OF
The Cincinnati Commercial, has occurred between
Mr. Murat Halstead and Mr.. Archibald Forbes.
The matter is worth noticing in these columns,
since the point really at issue between the two
gentlemen in question is the action Of a cOrrespon-
dent of THK TRIBUNE in communicating the tidings
OF the battle of GrayelUtte.
Mr. Halstead puts forward certain corrections Of
statements made by Mr.. Forbes in lecture re-
Gently delivered by the latter in Boston, under the
title of THE Inner Life Of War Correspondent"
Mr. Forbes dealing of course with the battlc-ields
of the Old World, averred that it American
citizen Mr. Moncurc Conway, who was the first TO
send by the telcgraphc wire to newspaper Il full
account of batte-that battle being the battle of
Gravcotte. He mentioned that soon after a little
episode to which he referred in detail and which
occurred on the day after the battle, Mr.. Conway
hurried to Saarbruck, and thence dispatched by
wire the telegram in question-a performance
which, Mr.. orbes continued, "lnaugurated new
era in war correspondence"
Mr. fIalstcad in commenting on these statements
of Mr. Forbes, averred that Mr.. Conway was the
correspondent at Gravelotte of The London Daiiy
Ne,rs and The Neo York UorId that he did not tee-
graph from Saarbruck his account of the battle
but wrote that account in the office of The Daiy
Aeics i'll London and that not Mr.. Conway, but
that he. Mr.. HalStead dispatched from Luxembourg
a telegram which was the first about the battle
with the exception of those sent to Berlin by the
lGcrmanl Emperor" who. by the way. was no EN-
perOr, but only King, when GIayelotte was fought.
In reply TO Mr.. Halstead's comments, Mr.. Forbes
makes the admission that he was in error in stating
that Mr.. Conways account teegraphed by
that gentleman from Saarbruck and comedies
that Mr.. Halsteads averment regarding its having
been written in London by Mr.. Conway after his
return from the scene of action is correct.
Mr. Forbes was substantially accurate in his
original statement and consequently his acknowl-
edgment of the accuracy of Mr.. Halstead's conn
reinstatement and of course that cOunterstatement
itself are erroneous The battle of GraVelotte was
fought on Thursday. the 18th August 1870. On
Monday, the 22d of August. there appeared in
The tribune detailed account of the battle,
"a column in length. dated "Gravelotte. Thurs
day. 18th August" telegraphed by its London
representative. with the following preface The
following account of Thursdays battle was written
the same night on the field. forwarded by messen-
ger to Saarbruck, and reaching London thence by
telegraph on Sunday evening" The concluding
sentence of this narrative runs as follows: This
