The public has not yet heard the last of

will be done with this cash. Will OFT
man get it? 1t is stated that it will be
distributed among his counsel for getting
it out of the clutches of the government.
Hon. Richard Crowley is one of Ottman's
counsel. and it is understood that he en-
efneered the compromise with George
Bliss. under which the suit was
dismissed. How is it that
member Of Congress can appear
as counsel in big claims in which the
government is interested, and earn large
fees without some notice being taken
Of the fact by the Attorney General? Mr..
Crowley was a member Of Congress when
he managed the Gilman case. There is
statute fOrbidding members of Congress to
have anything to do with claims or con-
tracts in which the government
is an interested party. Kellogg
was indicted for an alleged violation of
this statute, and it is difficult to see how
Crowley can escape with any show ofjus-
tice. Brewster has pecUliarities of char
acter and he may have fayOrites as well.
There is one thing that is suggested by this
Gilman case that is worthy Of notice. 1t is
that the government does not
succeed in winning any cases
against thieves and plunderers. The gov
eminent seems TO be successful in getting
special counsel who know how to make
compromises that are beneficial TO the
opposing counsel, but who do not win any
cases. A change Of counsel might be adj

In being forced to give up Horton, In
ternal Revenue Commissioner Evans must
feel a little crestfallen. When the attacks
on Horton began Evans smiled in
superior way, and indicated by his
manner that he had no fears
as to how Horton would come
out Of the fight. Horton was his friend,
and had been removed because of his
friendship, so Evans said, and he made it
his business to see him righted as soon as
he had the power. 1t must be admitted,
however, that Evans openly avOwed that
if anything was wrong with Horizons
record he would abandon him to his fate.
Apparently something has been found
wrong with Horizons record. Evans

not already learned, to 90 slow in making

impetuOsity. Greater caution Will save

The day of the shooting Of President

Ccrkhill engaged y young lawyer aud
stCnngraphcr to 90 to Guitcau'S cell and
report an interview between the district
attorney and the assassin. Edmund A.
Bailey was the name Of the reporter. aud
by representing himself to Guiteau as an
attachc of the New York HsrLh the
assassin talked very freely, and the inter-
WOW was turned over to Colonel COrkhill
and became part Of the record in that
celebrated case. Afterwards Bailey made
rcQucut trips to the jai! and Guitcau told
him the story of his life. Bailey was well
paid for his services and subsequently he
sold copies Of his interviews to the Herald

possession Of 80 much money seemed to
have upset the young stenographcr and he

The hopeful chairman OF the Repuoll'
can state committee recently undertook
to explain his hopefulness by pointing
with pride to the condition OF the party
in several states which are supposed 10
have some influence upon political con-
ditions in Pennsylvania. Since then
some events have transpired which in
dicate that the assumed hopefulness OF
Mr.. Cooper was premature. In Ohio it
appears that while the Democratic dis
fractions over the contending factions
interested in legislative candidates have
not been allayed, there is reasonable
confidence that this very condition OF
things will bring out such an increased
Democratic vote for governor thaU
Hoadley's chances of election are male
rally strengthened. The Republican
candidate has not made any impression
upon the canvass in Hoadley's absence ;
his party displays notable lack OF en-.
tbusiasm, the German vote is very solid
for Uoadley and the Democr ats are
hopeful that the coming two weeks OF
the canvass will witness remarkable
developments os strength for their
side. In Massachusetts the Republicans
had unexpected difficulty in finding Il
man to stand up against Butler; and
now that he is found he stands more
than an even chance of being beaten. In
New Jersey Mr.. Albeit, the Democratic
candidate for governor, today begins
what ia to be an uninterrupted aggressive
canvass of his state; he is q hard uGhter
and strong man there is every indl
cation that he will win. In Maryland'
the nomination of Mr.. McLane by the
Democrats has relieved every appreheu.
sion that was felt Of Democratic division
and corresponding weakness while IN
Virginia the contest against Malone IS
being waged with q strength and cont.
dence that have not heretofore ch rae

COuncilmanic Smariness.

Our cotempOrary, the Neto Era, has
been repersuaded, by the success which
has largely attended the laying of under
ground electric wires, that the poles
must CO." We would that our council
men had the like intelligence with which
to read the signs of the times. The fact
of their contracting for the electric
lighting of the city and six hundred and
fifty ugly wooden poles at this period,
when the nCedlesSuess of the poles is fully
demonstrated, shows III Il lamCutaNle
way how serious an undertaking it is to
hammer a proper knowledge into "a
couucilman's head. No doubt the inteu
tion was laudable one which inspired
this contract. We do not suppose that
any Of the COunCilmCn who favored il
had any other motive than the good OF
the city. But they did not know enough
TO handle the subject wisely. They lid
not know Il good electric light from a
bad one, and probably very few knew
how the light was produced anyhOw.
The lamp committee TO which the par
ticular management of the business WAS
intrusted happened to be particularly
ignorant in the matter. They knew a
good deal perhaps about something's, but
about electricity nothing. So they bar
gained with some Philadelphia speCua-
tors that they should light the city by
electricity and left it entirely to them TO
say how. The question Of oyergrouud or
underground wires wa not considered.
The lamp committee probably had never
heard of underground wires. Its pity
