The busy Jay Gould has gathered |
unto himself fhe last link of his chain
of railroads, and now without OBJ
struction controls clear pathway
from the rising to the setting sun on
this continent. Still he is not satisfi-
ed and is said to contemplate a raid
on Long Island and the lions share
of the profits of the new schemes for
rapid transit to Europe by means of
swift steamers from the east end of
the Island, and thoroughly equip
ped railroad system between the new
ocean terminus and the metropolis,
his plan including the tunneling of
the East River at several points for
through railroad passage. He
couldn't put his money to a better
use.
The Scotchmen have all been cele-
brating the birthday of Burns with
all their accustomed glee and devo-
ton to the sweet songs of the bard
of the people. A travelling family
with unusual gifts of voice and ex-
preston, the globe trotting Kenne-
dys, were here in the nick of time
and drove the Caledonians wild with
enthusiasm at their rendition of the
favorite ditties of the land O. cakes.

The cornorer's jury in the Spuyten
Duyvil case have just come out with
the most savage verdict that was
probably ever delivered by such a
body and it begins to look as if some
of the culprits may be brought to
trial for their gross neglect. Gen.
Egbert Viele was the chairman. He
is well known publicist and as indie
pendent as they make 'em. Smaller
men might think twice before going
for the magnates of the great road as
he did-for it is universally believed
that he was practically the sole COM
poser of the elaborate verdict which
was, however, concurred in by the
very distinguished jury gathered to-
gether to consider the disastrous cir
cumstances. 1t is refreshing to find
such vigorous wrath in these days of
taffy and trucking.
There has been terrible weather at

cupation he was eminently success
full, and as a maker, particu-
larly, he ranked second to no one il

a wide acquaintance and many friend

The Hesperian, in convincing itself that the
democratic platform amounts to nothing, and
will not interfere with its support Of the demo-
cratic ticket, says:
1.-The platform declares in favor of tariff
for revenue only while. without question, a
great many will refuse to vote for any man for
congress who is not strongly in favor OF tariff
for protection"
Our friend ofthe Hesperan may be able to
convince himself that the platform is no part OF
the garry but he wont be able to convince
those Interested in protection that the demo-
cratic party can be trusted on this question. If
a democrat can't swallow the platform he is
not democrat. The platform is built before
the candidates are selected it is the founda-
ton and chart of the party. So, Mr.. Hes
perian, II you want protective tariff you must
10 J. to the republican party to find it.

THE KHEDIvE'S PROCLAMATION.


The khedive's proclamation denouncing
Arab Pasha as traitor has Just been placard-
ed here. All correspondence arriving here
from the interior is opened by order of Arab
PaSha. 1t is believed that he has Europeans
advising him.
BEDoUINS JOIN ARAB.
The latest news from the interior is to the
effect that the chief of the Bedouin tribes, who
previously have favored the legitimate govern
ment, have submitted to the rebels, and that
perfect understanding exists between them. 1t
is said the Bedouns have undertake en- to furnish
90, 900 men, the chiefs remaining as hostages
in Arab Pasha's hands.
THE TELEGRAPH UNDER CENSORSHIP.
London, July 31.--The home government
has ordered Admiral Seymour to establish a
censorship over cable messages, in conse-
quence of the repeated dispatchinp of de-
tailed accounts of the British position.
THE TURKISH EXPEDITION.
Constanlinople, July 3I.-Dervish Pasha,
has been designated as the probable COM
mander of the force to Egypt. 1t is expected
that the departure Of the force will be DELAYED.
AN EXPLANATION DEMANDED.
The porte has requested Lord Dufferin to
explain what it describes as the extraordinary
severity of the British IN Alexandria.
EAGER TO HEAD AN ATTcK.
Alexandra, July 3I.-Osman Pasha, Reth-
ki, will organize body of Circassian and Al
banian troops. He is eager to head an attack
against Arab.
BoMBARDMENT ABANDONED.
The bombardment of the Aboukir forts, for
various reasons will not take place.
A YOUNG man, on the 18th ult., on the Bos-
ton and Providence train, while it was yet
moving, in very needless haste, stepped under
the wheels and was killed. These accidents
from recklessly jumping on and of cars while
running are frequent and it would be a judi
cious police regulation to arrest and fine all
who do it, 1t may be that 1.-THE world is gov
erned too much" but there is certainly not too
much police government not too much care
taken Of those who are too incautious to take
care of themsel, es. Every human life has, at
least, reational value; even the worst, SC ciety
has some concern in when it comes to be dis
posed of. We often lay involuntary homage
to nature and to NATURES God. and humanity
is sometimes shaken into tears by events which
we might reasonably consider none of souri,
business. Therefore weatever is going on is
to be looked after by that police Cerberus who
sits everywhere at the door of the public JUS
tice, looking very grim and often doing very
little else. One Of them is needed on every
railroad train for the permanent cure of this
very common and very ill-habit.

To the Editor of The EVENING LIGHT
SlR--In Your issue Of July 24'h is com
municaton from your Medina correspondent
animadverting in very strong language on the
accident that befel ]. A. Masters at the above
colliery, and nferring that caving in or falls
and accidents to workmen were matters OF
common occurrence.
| now beg your leave to state facts which
cannot be controverted. took charge of the
mine in ep,ember last, and since that time
no workman under me has lost single day 5
wok through accident until the accident that
befel |. H. Masters, and it was purely acct
dental occurrence which all who work i'll
mines are liable to at any moment. The
mine is managed, propped and worked &C
cording to the best methods known in mining.
and shall be glad to aid, to the fullest exten:
in my power, any person who may be duly
authorized to investigate into the accident that
has occurred. | would like for colliery in
spec,or to be sent to do this, as ! know 1t
would result in clearing me Of any direction
of duty.
In conclusion may say that J! II. Masters
was sent to San Antonio at his own special
request and that the driver was chosen by
himself and is persorwho has been used t
handling horses and wagons from his youth
up, as was also the other youth who accom-
panied them. SO that inexperience is not APP
pl.cabe to them, but the bad state OF the road
at that particular place, or the obstacle as your
own correspondent puts it. and in contrma
ton Of what state beg to append the state
ment of John H. Masters himself.
Yours, &C., JOHN CROSBY
beg to say that the accident which befell
me at the kirkwood mine was entirely acct
dental, and occurred in the safest place in the
mine at the time. That l have no fault to
find in the least with the management. the
propping or general safety of the nine, and
that requested to be sent to San Antonio
because / could get a good doctor. and !
could get all required with less trouble.
The driver was chosen by myself, and in
conclusion may add that as soon as am
we'll again shall resume my work under Mr..
Crosby at the mine, as am satisfied with his
care over his workmen.
Yours, Respectfully.
JOHN II. MASTERS.
