Will 1t be Administration or Anti-Admin-
istration?


The election of SIX new aldermen gives rise
to the question as to the complexion of the
council; is it Frenchy or anti Frenchy!
Major Dwyer is not considered Frenchy, he
may, however, feel under obligations to the
administration party for his election, but he
is member of the happy family, with strong
mayoralty tendencies. Arnaud is claimed to
be decidedly Frenchy, but this may be mis-
take.
Captain Story is Frenchy, he owes his cleo
ton to the French party; he may be little
stubborn now and then, but in the main, will
be likely to sneeze whenever French takes
snuff.
Major Minter is claimed to be Frenchy, but
the major is too independent to sneeze when
anybody takes snuff, and can be counted in
the opposition.
Mr.. Copeland and Mr.. Pauly are essential
ly opposition. So that we may put up the re-
sui, as a defeat to the administration party.
We can expect nothing extra; no new policy,
in fact no deviation from the well established
ruts Of the present city government, but il will
take all ''his honahs" tact and shrewdpess to
manage the new city council.

DR.. Mergers Statement in Regard to the
Death of JnO. w. Terry.
Editors EVENING LIGHT.
Please allow me to mention in the LIGHT
that the statements in the city papers con-
corning the effects of the deceased stranger,
Jno. w. Terry, were correct with but one ex-
ception, and which deem proper to be cor
rected. made a personal investigation OF
the effects OF the deceased, as he was my pa
tent and had official authority. The checks
and the deposit notes were stated correctly,
also the amount of money on him $3.50. He
left nothing else, but old and worn out
clothing.
The statement in the Express this morning
that he was doctored and fed at the expense
of the city. is not correct; he was admitted to
the hospital as a private patient, and he paid
during his illness there for all the medicines,
with exception of one prescription, the last,
and it was granted on expense of the city, be-
cause he told me, his means were CIV
ing out. He seemed to be very eccentric.
The rest of the statements in the LIGHT and
in the Express are corect-all of which GER
tify. Respectfully, r. MENGER,
City Physician.

Alarming Occurrence at Turner Hall

Alarming Occurrence at Turner Hall.
This morning about II o'clock, as the Rice
extravaganza troupe were rehearsing the
"Babes in the Wood" an alteration took
place between two members Of the company in
respect to an alleged debt. One was Mr..
Harris, ''the Lone Fisherman" but the name
of the other fellow we did not catch. Mr..
Harris threw bottle at the other fellow which
missed him and smashed .sainst the side, and
as a return compliment three revolver shots
were fred. Mr.. Harris rushed off the stage
and appeared quickly, having one side of his
face deluged with blood. The pianist, quiet,
inoffensive man, retired beneath the piano un-
til the shooter was seized, and then went on to
the stage to render assistance. The stage
manager then shouted for Gods sake 60 for
doctor, and the pianist Immediately made for
the front door, which was locked. He then
passed round the stage, through the bar, run
ming like mad, and in short time returned
with DIR. Hadra in his buggy. 1t was then
found that the whole affair was practcaljoke
on the pianist, that the blood was simply .tur-
keys blood, and the shots were produced by
blank cartridges. The doctors fee was paid,
and he retired, but the pianist now feels that
he has been "given away" properly.

THE CANADIAN TELEGRAPH
SYSTEM.
Practically One and Under Gov
erDment Control.

OTTAWA, ONT., May 6.-The vote
Of the Canadian Senate, confirming by
80 to IL, the act recently passed by the
Commons, legalizing the amalgama-
tion of the entire telegraph system
of the Dominion, is claimed virtual
ly to create a contract between the
government and the Great North
western Telegraph Company, giving
the latter a monopoly of business,
provided it is done efficiently and at
a uniform rate, irrespective of dis
tanees and limited to % cents for ten
words, which, owing to perfection of
the Canadian system, can be done
with profit. The rate has hitherto
under competition been between
20 cents. The Western Union
Company, of which the Great North
western is an annex, thus secures the
practical control, not only OF the
Canadian lines, but also of the terrific.
ry of the Northwest, the important
land lines in matitine provinces
reaching to all cables, and
the possession Of which was threat
ened with the government assumption
are also permanently secured to the
Western Union.

A TERRIBLE FIRE.
Fifteen Acres Burned Out At
Racine, Wisconsin.
Railroad Offices and Manufacturing
Works Destroyed.
Loss From One to Three Million
Dollars.

CHICAGO, May 6.-The Morning
News Racine, Wisconsin, special says
the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
railroads general Offices have been
burned with all the contents. The
loss is estimated at at least $250000.
The streets are full Of furniture and
gosds Of every description. Kelly,
Weeks & Co. S loss is Sl25, 900, stock
insured as follows Imperial, London,
1000; American, Philadelphia, $30,-
600; Westchester, New York, S25. 900;
Fire Association, Philadelphia, SIS.
600; Hartford, $1,000; Queens, $40, 500;
Northwestern National, S20, 600; Hart

$1,000; Underwriters, $1,000, Cont
mental, New York, $1,000; London,
Liverpool & Globe, 5000.
RACINE, Wis, May 6.-The wind
has lulled somewhat and there is hope
the fire may bestopped at Fourth street.
1t has not crossed the river yet, and so
far the large manufactures are un
touched. Something like fifteen acres
have so far been burned over, and the
loss is estimated at from 81 100000 to
S3,OOO,0O0 No figures can be obtained
as to the insurance. rD
MILwAUKEE, May Cat 4 am.
the fire continued to spread, and had
burned over fifteen acres. The loss
had then reached 81 100000.
CHICAGO, May 6.-The Inter- Ocean
Racine special gives the following as
among the losses: The elevator, valued
at 100000; the Goodrich dock, $l0,-
600; Kelly & Co.'s lumber yard,
$4,000; James Knapp & Co. S lumber
yard, $4,000; Silver Plate Company,
$4,000; st. Paul railway building,
100000; and other losses, which it is
impossible to estimate.
RACINE, May 6, 4 a.m.-The fire
continues to spread, and has already
burned over an area of fifteen acres.
The loss will now reach 81 100000.
CHICAGO, May 60 a.m.-Nothing
can be obtained from Racine yet as to
the condition Of the burned city. A
gentleman we'll acquainted with the
city says the fire has, according to the
accounts received, burned that section
bounded by the lake on the east, by
the river on the south and west, and
by Fourth street on the north, which
comprises about nine blocks, but not
the finest ones in the city. He says
the loss will probably not exceed
S2,000,000 on this property, and that
estimates of SIS, 600, 900 are absurd,
The Daily News says that the re-
ports Of the Racine confagration, as
telegraphed from there last night, we're
grossly exaggerated; that the total
loss is only S350,000 and the insurance
Sl50,000. Although about a dozen
blocks were burned, they were on the
peninsula, which did not contain any
very valuable property, and the en-
gines from Chicago and Milwaukee
arrived in time to coufne the flames
to that section. The Racine Fire
Department has only two fire compa-

That which was made for the child
was brought into use, but, as the
woman is recovering, the other will
not be needed. The circumstances Of
the affair point strongly to the fact
that the poor woman thought that she
would first see that her boy was first
placed beyond reach and then she
would follow him. A goblet contain
ing white mixture was found on the
dining room table, and seems to be the
stuff that was used.
Mr.. and Mrs. Newton have been
married about thirteen years. They
always seemed to be loving pair, and
certainly Mr.. Newton provided we'll

in is handsomely furnished and tidily
kept. Whatever other causes led to
the affair, it seems certain that Mr..
Slusser's contemplated marriage had
something to do with it. oHo
1t was learned yesterday afternoon
that Mr.. Slusser was married on Tues
day. and had gone to New Orleans on
his bridal tour. A dispatch was sent
to Memphis, as Mr.. Slusser was ex,
pected to reach that place last night.
He was very much attached to the
child, and he will no doubt be greatly
shocked. He is we'll known here,
having for a number of years been in
charge Of the L, K N, shops at this
place.

Ed. Shaw, of Memphis, on account
Of his low tax sentiments, was not al
lowed to take his seat as delegate in
the convention at Nashville, which
nominated Hawkins for Governor.
Shaw is a friend of the colored people,
and has too much sense to believe
that it is to the interest of his race to
pay high taxes. He knows that if the
tax is voted and the people have il to
pay that his race will have to pay a
large proportion Of it; that they are
poor and need all the money they have
for purposes other than paying railroad
debts.

Journalistic Chances.

The Little Rock Gazette, Of Thurs
day, contains business notices of its
sale and transfer from Mr.. Dean
Adams to Colonel j. N. Smithee. The
latter says: Is
1t is needless to say that the politics
Of the paper will remain Democratic.
Mr.. D.A. Brewer, who has conducted
the editorial columns of the paper SO
successfully and satisfactorily during
the past fifteen months, will continue
in the same capacity in the future.
Mr. Opie P. Read, who has been in
charge Of the city department for the
past three years, retires for the pur-
pose Of starting a literary and humor.
Gus journal of his own. In that de-
partment he will be succeeded by
Colonel Dan O'Sullivan.
Colonel Smithee has been educated
to the newspaper business from his
boyhOod up, and he understands it in
every department and detail. In a
newspaper Office, up stairs or down in
the counting room, he finds congen-
ial and homelike atmosphere. The
Gazette, under Mr.. Brewers editorial
conduct and Mr.. Dean Adams busi-
ness management, has greatly increased
its circulation and sphere Of useful-
ness, and it will, no doubt, continue
to prosper. The paper is in its sixty.
fourth year Of publication, and is init,
mately identified with the history Of
the State. 1t is the Oldest daily wesl
of the Mississippi river, and keeps
fully up with the requirements and
spirit of modern journalism. The
price paid by Colonel Smithee was
$28,l0O, a very low price indeed, but
it suited Mr.. Adams to go out and the
present proprietor to return to the
profession and work of his life. The
people of Arkansaw are to he congrat
ulated upon the fact that the oentra
morning paper of the State continues
in such able and worthy hands.

ger rules deliberately and decisively.
Ho is the model Of promptness. At
times, when makinga ruling, he toys
with his silver tobacco box. The
Malley cousins retain their seats back
of Mr.. Cassidy. Their overcoats are
thrown over the backs of their chairs.
James rests his head on his overcoat
and listens to the testimony with
wearied expression of countenance.
Walter continues his notes. Miss
Douglass still faces them on the other
side Of the table. She is pretty and
attractive. She smiles ut the disputes
of the lawyers, and sits hours at a
time working her left foot on the back
round of Counselor Stoddard's chair
During tho forenoon she wore a fur
trimmed pelisse. Walter fastens his
eye upon her occasionally, but only
