IF Guiteau were sincere in asking to
be admitted to bail the application would
furnish the strongest evidence yet forth
coming of his lunacy. If there is any
where upon the face of the earth man
who should wish to hide himself secure
ly from the general eye, it is the man
who tried to kill the President and after
ward expressed regret at his failure. II
the President should recover, as happily
it seems to be reasonably certain that he
will, the punishment which can be infict-
ed according to law upon his assassin is
regarded as inadequate. 1t might occur to
Guiteat that in some parts of the country
there are persons who would be inclined
to make good the statutory shortcoming.
If he should fall into their hands he
would wish himself safe in Jail again.
But even where respect for law and order
is too strong to tolerate any lawless pro
ceeding the loathing with which the as
sassin would be regarded would make
his prison a paradise in contrast with
liberty in such circumstances The truth
probably is, suggests the New York Post,
that Guiteau has no real desire to be dis
charged and no expectation that his ap-
plication for bail will receive any serious
attention. 1t is another illustration of
the diseased vanity which is likely to be
the nearest approach to anything like in
sanity ever likely to be established in his

COnkling and His Friends.

A New York Sun dispatch from AL
bany, speaking of the Republican out
look and of the prospects of Mr..
Conkling, reports one of that gentle
mans most intimate friends as saying
"Conkling will do nothing at present
His friends will vote the Democratic
ticket this year or not vote at all. There
are three hundred thousand Conkling Re-
publicans in this State, and the parties
are about even. One in five OF them is an
active politician who feels insulted at
the wrongs heaped on Conkling. That
will give the Democrats the State by
fifty thousand majority, and don't you
forget it, In 1875 they made their
game and left COnkling out. They
nominated for Governor E. d. Morgan,
and the party was beaten by 80, 900 ma
iority and Tilden was elected. Two
years later they resolved to let Mr.. Conk-
long havehis way, and the result was a
Republican victory. In 1879 he carried
opposition of Hdrper's Weekly and the
E0ening Post Last year hewas dragged
into the work to save Garfield and Ar
thur. He isn't dead yet Wait till he
is needed to save the State again, and
see if the half breeds don't call upon
him. He is unlike Morgan or Fenton,
neither of whom could speak He is a
great national leader of the party. He
could found new party if he wanted
to, and he would establish it in opposi-
ton to monopoly"

The James brothers and several others
of the gang, who lately robbed a train
in Western Missouri, were seen near
Kansas City Friday. Officers were at
once put on their track. 1t is said that
Pinkerton's Detective Agency, of Chica-
go. will endeavor to bag the $50, 900 re-
ward offered, and for that purpose will
send party of men to Western Missouri
to capture the outlaws. Poke Wells, the
noted Iowa bank robber, is also in the
neighborhood OF Kansas City, and a
posse is close on his heels. Wells robbed
the Fremont county Qowa) bank July
70. The citizens fired on the robbers as
they rode out of town, and Wells was
dangerously shot through the leg. He
has been unable to ride since in conse-
quence, and is being carried around in a
wagon, so that it is probable that he will
be captured.

THE WHY OF IT.-And why, in the
name of goodness, can we not have
steamship lines to Brazil without gov
eminent subsidles7 Simply and sorely
because the navigation laws enacted and
kept in force by the Republicans make
it impossible for our merchants to buy
a foreign-built ship, while the tariff
increases the cost of an American ship
one-third over what it could otherwise
be built or purchased for IN England.
And the same tariff makes it impossible
for our merchants to trade directly with
Brazil, loading their ships with return
cargoes, so as to compete with those of
England, Germany and France. And
instead of proposing to reduce these
worse than useless revenue restrictions
so that our merchants and manufacture
ers can have a fair chance to compete
with those of Europe in the open mar
kets of the world, Mr.. Miller proposes
to increase the restrictions so that paper
makers can make larger profits at the
public expense and tax the people for
ships to send their paper to South
Americal This is wood pulp states.

Percy LEROY, who is believed to have
been the murderer of Mr.. Gold in the
English passenger coach, must be re-
markable man, if the story that is told
of him is true: 1t appears that he owed
friend goo, which was the sum offered
for the arrest of the murderer. That
friend received a letter, by which he was
made acquainted with the place where
might be found the man "wanted" for
the Brighton tragedy; he was told he
need feel no qualms of remorse in in
forming on his friend, but would rather
confer a benefit on him and secure for
himself the reward of 600, which
amount, the writer added, would wipe
off his obligations TO the recipient of the
strange epistle. And it was in this way,
so it is stated, that LEROY came into the
hands of the officers. A new way to
pay old debts, surely.

The prophets have not done badly
this year. Zadkiel's Almanac predicted
the death of the late Car, and hit in
four days of its identical date, while
VennOr has made dozen bulrs-eyes on
his weather predictions. 1t may not be
uninteresting, therefore, to know just
what the prophets lay down for us for
the month of August. The two great
astrological almanacs are RaphaePs and
Zadkiels. The formerpredicts political
troubles for the month, but a great
increase in trade and commerce. Earth
quakes and troubles in Ireland and Po-
land are also predicted; likewise consid
cradle excitement in Paris, although of
what nature the astrologer does not tell
us. The earlier portion of the month
being under the constellation Gemini,
(the ruling sign of the United States and
the city of London, an excess of fires,
accidents and crimes may be expected
here. Zadkiel predicts troubles in Lon
don, the United States, Lower Egypt
and Belgium during the month. A great
fire will break out in London ON the
25th, on which date troubles will also
occur in Turkey and Paris. The month
will wind up amid great excitement and
the violent agitation of the stock market.

THE WAR SHIPS OF THE FL
TURE.
What the Board of Experts Recon-
mended In Their Report.
Washinqton Post.

The Naval Board appointed some time
since by Secretary Hunt. to inquire into
the needsof the navy with respect to new
vessels and the kind best suited to the
defense of the country and the mainte-
nance of its dignity in other waters, has
arrived at important conclusions. The
board has decided to recommend the con-
struction of three classes of fighting
cruisers, to have speed of 1S, IA and
Is knots an hour, respectively. The
largest class is to have a capacity of
8, 700 tons. They also recommend the con-
struction of number of gunboats for
river service, to have capacity of seven
hundred tons, a speed of ten knots and
to carry one gun each. These are de-
signed to serve on the Chinese and other
coasts having narrow and shallow inlets,
for which there are DO suitable boats now
existing in the navy. The gunboats will
be of wood, but tine larger vessels Of iron.
The naval constructors on the board are
to hold long sitting at the Portsmouth,
n. H. navy yard to decide on the moulds
or lines of the various classes of vessels.
When this has been done the engineer
officers Of the board will determine as to
the character of the engines best adapted
to the different classes. 1t is understood
that the line officers are willing to give
up their prejudice for heavy rigging, so
there will be no difficulty in attaining
the requisite speed. There is every pros
pect of harmony in the conclusions of
the board. The last thing to be done af-
ter the constructors and engineers get
through is for the line officers to decide
upon the outfit. The Secretary will then
have the finish report submitted to him,
and will embody it in his report to the
President, who it is known mad the in
tention to make an urgent recommends
ton to Congress to either take some rad
ical action or withdraw all support from
the navy.

The last quarterly report of marriages
in the city of New York shows that
2,22S couples entered the marriage rela-
ton. OF this number only 1 ,003 of the
men were native born, leaving 1925 or
55 per cent of foreigners. OF the 1928
females who married, 1918 or "a per
cent were native born. OF these 1918
brides of native birth, S44 only took
native husbands more than 200 of them
took Germans. Among the foreign
husbands taken by native brides, twenty
four nationalities are represented. In
such cities as New York, blood gets
decidedly mixed in single generation.
The pure-blooded Americans who can
trace their lineage back three generations
without foreign cross will early be the
exception.
