From the ~. Louis Globe Democrat.
The trial Of the damage case OF Mrs.
Clara Brady against the city was con-
cluded yesterday. The lady sued for
$4,000 damages for bodily injuries re-
ceiyed 10y her by falling into n hole In
the Twelfth Street Bridge. while pas

The defense proved that the hole which
accustomed the damage was a very
small one, being only three inches wide
by twelve inches long. The plaintiff
had testified that she stepped into the
hole, and sank up 10 her knee, receiving
abrasions of the skin and Gripping her
arm. A doubt was raised IN the minds
Of the jury as to whether n lady with n
medium sized foot and ankle could sink
10 far into so small n hole.
Ladies OF the Cinderella pattern have
very small feet, but as Mrs. Brady's
foot has not been exhibited in evidence,

in convention or general mass meeting as may

Florida was reversed in the last electoral canvass

The counties are requested to select their dele
gates at the same time and place and in the same
manner they select delegates to the State Con-
vention
In orderthat the Convention may act wisely and
conform to the will of the people, it is necessary
that their wishes be well ascertained. This can
only be done through their representatives 1t
therefore becomes all important that all the
counties be fully represented. In order to secure
this desirable end the County Executive Com
mittees of the several counties are respectfully
urged to spare no reasonable labor and pains to
secure a fair and able representation of their
spective counties. Let us enter upon this impor-
tant and vital work with zeal and energy pro-
portionate to the result desired, ever displaying
that spirit Of harmony and patriotism that should
at all times characterize those laboring together

and glory of the commonwealth

There has been some dissatisfaction at the ad-
journment resolution passed by the House last
Saturday, but nearly everybody has become re-
eonciled. Two or three measures of importance
will fail by reason Of adjournment on May 31st,
but they are not of kind upon which satisfactory
Legislation could be had if Congress should re-
main IN session all Summer. There will be no
difficulty in passing the appropriation bills, the
Ute agreement bill, the Eaten tariff commission
bill, and disposing of the mere important private
bills ON the calandar of the two houses.
The friends of General Grant here figure out
considerable gains for him if the New York and
Pennsylvania delegates to Chicago disobey in
structions. These alleged gains are in the West
and South mostly. No doubt whatever is felt by
Grants Washington friends of his nomination
on the first formal ballot.
Senator Bayard will have up to-day his bill
providing for the payment of Federal election
marshals, and hopes to pass it. As the bill has
the same rider" that caused veto of the i'm
mediate deficiency bill, Mr.. Hayes will also prob
ably veto this also, and il is said that he will call
an extra session of Congress if after the veto, no
provision is made for the marshals.
have failed inadvertently to mention that
paper called the Exodus has lately been estab-
lished here by an association of colored men. In
its first number it presented the name of Senator
Bruce as q candidate for Vice President, and ar
gued with great force that, if the Radical party
wished TO act up to its professions of special re-
gard for the colored race, it could do eectualy
by giving to Senator Bruce this nomination
Hon Frederick Douglass, the ablest of all colored
citizens, publishes letter this morning in which
he also advocates Bruces nomination. The i'm
pending split in the Radical party will cause the
defeat of any candidate, no matter who he may
be, and the suggestion to offer the empty honor
TO Bruce is at least harmless.
Washington will entertain more strangers TO-
morrow than ever before, except ut the Great
Review at the close of the war and the Presi-
Dental Inauguration. The boat race has not only
captured all Washington, but, apparently all the
other cities. So far everything promises WELL
and the contestants are in excellent condition.

WASHINGTON, D. C. May II, 1890
The boat race which is to take place on the
Potomac On the 19th,inst is just now a greater
attraction than the court, cabinet or Congress- -
The daily papers have columns Of comment, and,
for the once, have ceased to interview President
ial candidates and their hackers, but publish in
terviews with the two principal sports and their
associate gamblers. A greater crowd is expected
than when General Thomas stature was unveiled,
while many predict that the gathering will be
larger than at Presidential Inauguration. Pick
pockets, hotel thieves and all the concomitants
of this vile and useless sport have been on the
ground for more than q week, and the dock of
the police court is overfowing with such blund-
ering villains as are so unskillful as to be detected
1t would greatly simplify matters and purify the
atmosphere if the two principal gamblers, Han
Ian and Courtney, could be compelled to use
their miraculous muscle in some honest, respecta-
bic work, such as breaking stones or splitting
rails. What splendid galley slaves they would
make Chained 10 the oar they could row to
their hearts content, and, while they might not
make as good speed as in their utterly useless 30
pound shells, they would do infinitely less harm
than they are doing now, encouraging gambling,
idleness and correlative crime.
The House on Saturday voted 121 to 80 to ad-
journ on May 81 The resolution goes 10 the
Senate for its concurrence Immediately upon
this action a caucus of Democratic members was
held in the hall of the House, which resolved
that the agreement to adjourn ought to be recon-
sidered and the question left open until the i'm
portant legislation now pending has been dis
posed Of The opponents of the adjournment
resolution have not abandoned hope, notwith-
standing the adoption of the resolution. They
say they are confident that the Senate will not
concur in it for some time. When it reaches the
Senate il will probably be referred to the Com
mittee on Appropriations for resolutions for ad-
journment ordinarily take that reference. The
chairman of the committed Mr.. Davis, of West
Virginia, is the only Democrat on the committee
who is in favor Of adjournment, and if the reso-
luton shall be referred there 1t will be some time
before it will be reported back. But, apart from
the desire to get up measures of general legsla-
tion it is agreed that it will be impossible to get
away at the time fixed in the resolution. The
Senate has not shown any disposition to hurry
up the appropriation bills The Military Acade-
my bill is still in conference, and prospect of
an agreement.
If Congress adjourns on the 31st inst, it will
be the first time so early scattering has been
effected in Presidential year since 1882. That
was the year IN which the first delegate Presi-
Dental convention was held.

Mr. St Clair Abrams letter, detailing the
efforts he has made to procure the forged Bre-
ward retuHs in order TO prosecute those engaged
in the fraud. will be read with interest II ex-
poses in a most glaring manner the hollow pre-
lenses OF Mr. Bisbee in relation to election
frauds. 1t may be set down as a tact that Mr..
Stickney, as United States District Attorney,
has always been influenced by Mr.. Bisbee's ad-
vice, and who that reads Mr. Abrams letter can
doubt for moment that the papers in this case
were withheld in order TO protect those who
had come forward and testified against Mr.. Hull.
The general public, who know that Bisbee's
mock Indignation over election frauds. never in
cludes grain of wrath against those committing
frauds in the interests Of his own party will not
be surprised at the course of Mr. Stickney in
Withholding the papers. presumably under his
advice, but they would have been satisfied if
Judge Settle, whom they are disposed 10 regard
as a much fairer man than the average Repub-
lican ofice-holder, had ordered the papers sur
rendered to Mr. Abrams, or to the clerk of Bre-
ward county. AT any rate, we, as a journalist,
would have greatly preferred to have noted the
fact that Judge Settle had taken some notice of
Mr.. Abrams reasonable request.
