Marshall, whom the Democrats opposed

became the centre of all observation.
Here was the citadel of the order. Prem
tees all-powerful pen had beaten down
all opposition. He was the life and soul

close all men saw that blood must mark
its termination. Each day little blood
red paper hearts were scattered broadcast
over the streets. A w-Nothing was

around merely to intimidate the enemy.
The never-to-be-forgotten 9th day of
August dawned bright and clear. Long
before daylight the polls were crowded
with Know-Nothings: All their plans
had been perfected. They were armed to
worst. Before seven o'clock blood was
flowing all over the city. At first the
Irish, Germans, and Catholics were only
j0stled; then they were knocked down,
and finally the confusion ended in riot.
The scenes which followed were awful

An Immense AItendance-Snlemn Funeral
Services.
The funeral of Peter RGrich, who died
from injuries received by the explosion Of
cannon while a salute was being fred
some weeks ago, took place yesterday
afternoon at 3 o'clock from his late resi-
dence on High street. There were 1000
or 4, 900 persons in attendance, and a
constant stream of visitors viewed the re-
mains of the deceased. Tho body was
handsomely coffined and kind friends had
contributed many floral tributes. ST.
Peters Beneficial society turned out to
the funeral in a body, numbering about
22j men, all of whom were equipped in
the handsome regalia Of the society. st.
Michael's society was also present to the
number of IT'S, also uniformed. The
Humane fire company, to the number Of
100, turned out in citizens dress
and wore white gloves, and about
80 of Mr.. Diakleberg's house-car-
penters also attended in body rs
a mark of respect to their late fellow
workman. The funeral procession moved
from the late residence OF deceased to St.
Josephs Catholic church, where
the crowd was so dense that it
was with some difficulty the coffin
could be placed in front Of the sanctuary.
Rev. Father Grotcmeyer, the pastor, con
Quoted the funeral services, which con-
sisted of the.final absolutiOn of the body
and a funeral oration. The intermcnt
took place in St. Joseph cemetery, adjoin-
ihg the church, where had assembled the
immense throDg to gain admittance to
the church. The funeral was one
OF the largest ever.seen in that section
of the city.

THE enterprise of Philadelphia jour
nalism never brought quicker results
than in the dismissal 10y Mayor King of
his entire police detective force because
the Press, with singular courage and ex-
ceptional thoroughness, proved it to be
corrupt and in league with thieves.
Mayor King has likely made some mis-
takes in his selections of the new detec-
tives. We are confident he will prompt.
ly examine into the complaints against
the new men, and if we'll founded, they
will get the grand bounce. The dis
missed officers feel aggrieved and are
getting er parte aflidavits to prove their
innocence. The. Press has given them
all ample grounds for libel suit, and if
they have been unjustly dealt with they
will find it profitable to use their testi-
mony in the quarter sessions and common
pleas. The courts are open to hear and
redress any grievances they may have
suffered.

DINNERS are again having their effect
on the average congressman, and lobbyists
are almost as numerous as members at
Washington. There is no law to prevent
this, but there have ,boen Congresses
around which no lobby ered.-PA7-
adelptia Times.
The simple fact is that when the Demo-
Gratis had a majority in the House, Mr..
Randall was speaker and the committees
were constituted in favor of retrench-
ment, the lobby almost entirely disap-
peared from Congress. The opposition
called it cheese-paring, stingy, tobacco
splitting and hisky-drinking House, but
for all these hard names, it saved mil
lions for the country, and under its re.
gime the occupation of the lobbyist was
gone. With Republican majority he
returns. The old times have been re.
stored. Jobbery is rampant. Where

TIE Philadelphia Times very justly
censures the Democratic organization in
Philadelphia for letting itself get into
such deplorable condition that when gen.
tlemen OF the standing of Samuel J.
Randall and John r. Reed are pressed
for admission into the city committee
they are met with the challenge OF pot
house politicians like Fitzgerald and Kill
lackey, that they shall bow to factional
interests as the consideration of their
membership. Whoever is responsible
for this sort of thingS-and the most re
spectacle Democrats of Philadelphia are
not blameless-it is disgracefully true.
Ifthe organization there had been true
to itself it would long ago have done the
work and reaped the honor that have de.
volved upon the Committee of One
Hundred. The Democratic party in
that city might easily have planted itself
upon the platform of municipal reform
and gathered to its support a large ma
jority of the decent citizens. 1t has al
lowed itself to be run by FOUNDERS and
thieves, as tender to the Republican
ring, driving out or alternating the de-
center part of its own membership and
causing respectable Republicans to dis
trust it. Until the Philadelphia Demo-
Gratis rehabilitate themselves and drive
the McGowans and McMullens, the
Josephses and Killackys to the rear the
state Democracy want to have none of it..

LAST year the revenue derived from
the tax on matches amounted to $685.
5SO.G2 OF all that there was but very
small portion that was not paid by the
great corporation Of which Mr.. w. IL.
Swift is the head, which has squeezed
out neatly all the small concerns in the
country, has a monopoly OF the match
business, and wants to keepit. In the first
place, this big corporation is able to give
bonds and get 60 days credit from tha
government for the stamps it buys-run-
ing its business for two months On the
public credit. In the second place, ii
buys large quantities of stamps at time
and gets 10 per cent. discount, which it
charges the public for. This is why Swift
argues for a retention of the tax and why
the rest of the 50,O0O,OOO American peo-
pie demand its abatement. The con-
gresham who neglects to urge this re-
peal should hear from every one of his
constituents who has cause to strike 4

WEALTHY TRAIN JUMPERS.
They Pay S.l, L: to Get OF.


This morning before Alderman Nc
Conomy, John Williams was arraisned for
train jumping. Railroad Officer Pyle tcs-
titled that he and two or three others had
stolen q ride on tho cars of the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad. jumping off at the depot in
this city. lie attempted to arrest them,
and after q long run succeeded in captuv-
ing Williams. The alderman imposed the
usual sentence-ten days imprisonment,
or tino of s. and costs. Williams having
no money was about being taken to iaiI.
when young man of this city interposcd
and asked il he could be discharged ii the
fine and costs were paid. The alderman
said he could, and the young man re-
questcd that Williams be held for short
time till he could get tho money. He re-
turned in a few minutes and paid tho
amount, stain. that he diA not know
Williams, but that a friend Of the latter had
given him the money and requested him to
pay the fine. This was an eye-opener
to the policemen. and Officers Pyle and
DAILY went outside and nabbed two young
men answering to the names Of Thomas
johnson and John Brown, who were recog-
Dized as the men who jumped from the
train at the same time Williams did.
Complaint was madc against them, and as
they said they had no money the masis-
trate began to fill up the commitments.
johnson looked very blue and plead hard
to be let of. Offering for that purpose a
few dollars-all he had-but the masis-
trate was inexorable. Brown giggled
and laughed rs though he enjoyed the
scrape the party had got into, and finally
asked if they would he discharged in pay
ment Of the penalty. On being answered
affirmatively, he pulled from his pocket
$50 gold piece and paid his own and John
sons fine-the total for the trio amounting
to 524 12, of which S15 goes to the school
fund and the balance to the officers. When
Alderman economy in ;ns king the change
handed Brown a couple trade dollars, he
contemptuously pushed them aside, saying
he did not deal in 30 cent dollars. The
magistrate frowned, and Brown, on
being urge.l by his companions to " take
them-they are all right" picked them up
and the party left the Office. The police
men suspect the young men to be thieves,
and will keep sharp watch On them.

The Legislature of Iowa has defeated
the bill to forbid the issuing Of free passes
on the railroads of the state. OF course
this was to be expected. Us the members
are the chief dead heads in Iowa, as they
are in other states. Here in Pennsylvania
even the railroad companies that arc for
hidden to issue free passes still issue
them to members of the Legislature, con.
gressmcn, cOuncilmen and city officers who
are paid large salaries. In France quite 4
commotion has been raised by vote in
the Chamber Of Deputies to give the right
of free travel over all railroads to deputies
for a mere nominal sum. 1t is rightly con-
sidered that legislators ought not to place
themselves under any obligations to the
railroad companies, which are So often
obliged to ask favors Of them.
