In this terrible strait she consulted DIR. David

The Socialists Meet in New York, and
Adopt q Radical Platform.

New YORK, Dec. %.
At the afternoon session of the socialists
convention the New York section was CEN
sured for not holding 4 sympathy meeting on
account Of the death Of President Garfield.
A platform was then accepted. 1t demands
revision of the constitution of the United
States so that any number of citizens may
propose law, which proposition shall be re-
ferred to popular vote, and that all bills be-
fore congress shall be subject to q general
vote if so demanded by specified number Of
citizens.
1t also demands political equality without
regard to creed, race or sex; the establish
ment of national department of labor; that
the government issue all money; that eight
hours shall be legal working day; the en-
tire restriction from labor of children under IA
years of age; universal compulsory educa-
ton; that election day be a legal holiday I;
that all ballots shall be printed by the gov
eminent and that the ballots of all candi-
dates for Office be sent to the voters two days
before elections.
Resolutions we're also adopted favoring the
formation Of national and international
trade and labor unions, and pledging the So
cialistic labor party for the next two years,
not affiliate with any political party not en-
dOrsing its platform.
Resolutions were also passed sympathiz-
ing with the Russian nihilists, and pronounc-
ing all expressions Of sympathy from this
government to Russia, as infamous and cow
ardly; approving the anti-rent agitation in
Ireland; denouncing England, and gloryfy-
ing in the success Of the socialists in the re-
cent election in Germany.
The platform adopted also demands the
abolishing of the President and Vice Presi-
dent Of the U. S., and instead thereof, the
establishment of federal council, to be
elected by and held responsible to the House
Of Representatives. At the evening session
the platform was revised and rewritten.

A Young Nan in Biddeford Kills
the Young Lady to Whom
He was Engaged, and then Com
mits Suicide.
JEALOUSY THE CAUSE.
BrppEroRp. Dec. %.

BIDDEFORD, Dec Is.
One of the most horrible and distressing
murders and suicides that ever shocked the
community, occurred here about three o'clock
this afternoon. Leon Moore, a clerk in the
store of Bradford & Anthony, Boston, return
ed here = few days ago to spend Christmas,
and this afternoon was visiting Miss Bell
Cushman, teacher in one of our schools, and
most estimable young lady, to whom he
was engaged. The report of pistol being
heard in the room which they occupied. par
ties rushed in and found both dead,-Miss
Cushman having been shot just back of the
ear while apparently sitting in chair near
the window. Moore was lying near the centre
of the room, shot through the head, the ball
entering just below the eye. He expired in
a few moments. 1t is supposed that, actuated
BY jealousy, he first shot Miss Cushman, and
then took his own life. The families of both
parties are very respectable people, and are
nearly distracted by the awful tragedy. They
were each about twenty-one years of ago.

who knew him in this city speak of him as
having been quiet, industrious young man
of a modest. retiring disposition, not given
to dissipation and the last person that we
could imagine would commit such deed.
The young lady was visiting at his boarding
house in this city several weeks ago, and
their relations at that time were spoken of
as being exceptionally pleasant.

Judge Porter. in which he repealed reflection

Judge Cox gave his opinion, stating that
no certain measure to silence the prisoner
could be taken that would not have abridged
his constitutional rights, whereas, it
has been deemed, and he thought
rightly that the prisoners behavior and ut
terances would prove the best means of de-
termining his mental condition. He ordered
the prisoner removed to the do OK, which was
then done.
The prisoner smiled upon the judge and in
the most insinuating manner promised to

Russian Affairs.

The first part of the stipulated money

to Russia by the Chinese government four
days ago.
Several court officials have been ordered
to proceed to Moscow to make careful ex-
animation Of all the costumes and accessor-

used at the Imperial coronations. This war
rants the superstition that the coronation
is to take place earlier than was expected
probably before the confinement of the En-
