THE STAR ROUTES.

WASHINGTON, Dec. lin the star route
case Mr.. Merrick said there was a differ
ence of opinion as to the necessity. of per-
sonal attendance of defendants in INSIDE
meanor. He was satisfied a personal at
tendance was unnecessary, but submitted a
motion that Stephen W. Dorsey be COM
PEELED to appear personally in court for
trial. The motion was backed by afida-
Wits sworn to by Bliss, reciting the compo-
sition of articles by Dorsey furnished to the
press, and declaring a belief that Dorsey
will be able to attend.
The motion was opposed by Mr..
Ingersoll on the ground that attendance in
court would be at the risk of perpetual
blindness, but he maintained his presence
would be necessary during the trial. The
judge sustained his previous position, that
the defense might just as we'll be main
tanned in the absence of defendant as in
his presence, except as to the point of his
offering to testify. The affection of Dor
sey's eyes did not prevent his being physi-
cally and mentally competent to testify.

A Chinese Funeral.

WHEELING, w. Va, Dec. 11.-Hu Hin, a
young Chinaman employed in Joe Lees
laundry here, died Saturday and was bur-
led to-day with rites peculiar to the Celes-
tial kingdom. The body was placed in a
neat pine coffin, and the face washed and
clothes sprinkled with a peculiar Chinese
liquor resembling whisky, used as safe
guard against illness in the hereafter. No
religious services were held, the friend ex-
planning that the nearest Joss man was
sick at Chicago. All the Cinnamon in
town and several from Pittsburgh, with
prominent white citizens, attended. Tea,
rice, etc., were passed around at the house,
joss sticks and candles burned about the
body, a lot of coin and a fan placed in the
coffin. The drive to the grave was made
as rapidly as possible by request of the
Celest1als, money being scattered freely
along the way. All the dead mans clothes
were burned.

Hanging Too Good for Him.

On Sunday afternoon about o'clock,
as two little girls, the daughters of N. Ben
nor of Ill Viola street, and Philip. Big
ne, of 464 Wabashaw street, aged eight
and six years respectively, were returning
to their homes from St. Louis church, they
were accosted near Plymouth church by a
young man who, with promises of money
and candy, endeavored to entice them
away. Finding himself repulsed he en-
deavored to take improper liberties with
them on the public street, but was fright
ened Off. The fellow is unknown, but it is
hoped that if he makes a similar attempt
ne will be suitably punished if any punish
ment is adequate for such hellish offense.
Burning alive would be merciful fate for
such wretch.

Il Brace OF SUITS.

That Present Some Points of Interest-An
Engineer Claims $4,000 Damages for
Injuries Received Through the Careless
ness of Another.
Two interesting suits were commenced in
the district court yesterday. The first one
is by the St. Paul d Manitoba road against
W. j. Broker. The complaint alleges that
the plaintiff is railroad corporation,
owning and running road from st. Vim
cent, through West Union to st. Paul;
that the defendant, on the 18th day of
June last, was engaged in loading and un-
loading cars and transporting the same
over side tracks laid across the company's
main track at West Union; that on that
day the defendant, while engaged in such
loading and unloading, carelessly and
negligently left one of the cars standing
on said track so that portion of the car
remained projecting over and upon the
main track and obstructed the free passage
of cars over the same; that it was left on
curve in such position that it could not
be seen by persons on trains running in
the direction of West Union, until
such train would be so near
the car that it could not
be stopped in time to avoid collision:
that on the day above named one of the
plaintiffs trains, being run in a careful
and prudent manner, through the careless
ness of the defendant in leaving the car
there, colllded with the car, thereby break
ing and injuring the locomotive engine
and several cars of the train, whereby the
plaintiff was damaged in the sum of S174-
81, wherefore the plaintiff demands judy
ment for that amount.
The other case is still more peculiar.
The engineer, who was on the train when
the above collision occurred, being in
jured, has brought suit against the same
defendant, Broker, for the purpose of re-
covering from him $4,000 damages that he
alleges he suffered through the neglect and
carelessness of the defendant in placing
the car on the track as described in the
first complaint. the substance of which is
given above. He says he was managing
and running the train iudiciously
and carefully, but that through
the culpable carelessness of the defend
ant the collision occurred; that when he
saw that the collision was sure to happen,
and that he as engineer, acting according
to his best judgment, could aot avoid it,
or IN any other way protect himself, jumped
from the train for the purpose of saving
his life; that in thus jumping from the
train he was thrown to the ground with
great violence and seriously injured. He
therefore claims $4,000 damages.

To the Editor of the Globe.
FAE1BAULT, Dec. II, 1S8c.-My attention
has been called to an article in a late num-
Der of the GLoBl headed ''The Way of the
World" in which there are several inaccur-
acies, and in which injustice is done to the
citizens of Faribault.
Mr.. Faribault's homestead, which you
state was so disposed of that most of the
proceeds found their way into the Golfers
of money lender. was sold to the state of
Minnesota by Mr.. Faribault for what was
then considered an enormous price, for the
site of the present asylum for the blind.
The proceeds Mr.. Faribault invested in the
milling business in Otter Tail county,
which proved to be a poor investment.
After Mr.. Fairbanks return to this city, as
soon as it was known that he was in need
of assistance, paper was circulated bear
ing the following heading: eve whose
names are hereunto annexed, having
learned with regret that our fellow citizen,
the founder of our city and whose name it
bears, has met with such reverses of
fortune as to leave him in in
dlgent circumstances, hereby cheerfu1ly Of
fer the sums set opposite our respective
names as slight testimonial of our respect
and esteem, and to contribute to his COM
fort in his declining years." This paper
was signed by thirty of our oldest and best
citizens, and as one of the persons having
it in charge to look after the comfort of
Mr.. Faribault, I can say that from the day
of the date of that paper June 6, 1879 to
the day of his death, Mr.. Faribault was
we'll and tenderly cared for. That the
gentlemen named in the GLOBE, residents
of st. Paul, contributed by their donations
to Mr.. Faibault's comfort we gratefully &C
knowledge, but house and home, medical
assistance and nursing, and kindly personal
interest in his welfare we're as freely given
by his late friends in Faribault as were
those contributions by his friends and
companions of earlier days. Yours truly,

In. Y. Dispatch. 5th.
The disagreement between Mrs. Langtry
and Mrs. Labouchere is the topic of con-
versation at the Manhattan and other
clubs tonight. Fred. Geohard, who fol-
lowed Mrs. Langtry to Boston and who
was the person objected to by Mrs. La
bouchere. was among the first of Mrs.
Langtry's New York admirers. Geohard
is handsome young man of twenty six.
He lives at the hotel Brunswick and keeps
a four-in -hand and other equipages, all of
which have been at Mrs. Langtry's COM
mand during her stay iu New York. Geo.
hard has usually accompanied her during
her drives. Geohard's father died few
years ago, leaving his son an income of
about $4,000 year. The young man is
we'll known at the opera and in the lob
bies of the principal theaters, and is a
great diner out. He has the reputation of
being discreet, quiet, temperate and eco
nomical. 1t is said that his bill for flow
ars alone during Mrs. Langtry's short
engagement in New York was nearly $1,000.

ENGLISH GRAIN MARKETS.

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE Mari; Lane E.c-
press, in its review of the British grain
trade the past week, says: Wheat moving
is suspended owing to inclement weather.
Very little more land will likely be seeded
before spring. The acreage of the wheat
crop for 1883 will probably not be much
greater than 1882. The trade is remark
ably slow, and millers buy sparingly.
There is general feeling of discourage
ment at the large quantities of foreign
flour now on the passage hither. Altogether
breadstuffs are very much depressed. Bar
ley is dull and weaker, and sometimes
cheaper. In foreign wheat merely retail
business has been done and prices are IN
changed. Flour is weaker, quot&bly IN
altered. There is an unprecedented guam
tity on passage, and is almost certain to
become still larger. Maize is nominal.
Cargoes are very quiet. Sales of English
wheat the past week ,53,O35 quarters at
Ais Sd against 46,3OS quarters at AIS Cd
