Performing Dogs Fight ON the Stage.

Performing Dogs Fight on the Stage.
BROOKLYN, May 2S.-During performance
of ''Uncle Toms Cabin" at Haverlys Thea
ter tonight two Siberian bloodhounds who
are employed to track the runaway slaves,
George and Eliza Harris, added an unexpect-
ed piece of realism to the scene by having
desperate fight with each other on the stage.
During their battle they rolled over into the
orchestra and much excitement prevailed for
a few minutes. Finally the brutes were sep
arated and the play proceeded.
Like a NOveI-A Man shut Up In q Mad
house Get Hold of His Property.
BROOKLYN, May 28.-An effort was made
in the Supreme court today to secure the re-
lease of John H Gillian, who is said to be
sane, be illegally confined in private mad
house at Amityville, L. l., called the Long
Island Home. The petitioner is Mrs. Gil
liam, who charges that her husband was tax
en- away from his home during her absence
on false charge of insanity by one William
B. Arthur, who sought in this way to get ap-
pointed committee over the personal and
private property and thus get possession of
Gilliam's homestead at Bayport, which Ar
thur had unsuccessfully tried to buy. Mrs.
Gillian is poor and without means of sup
port, and she wants her husband and his
property restored. A writ of habeas corpus
was issued by Justice Pratt.
Trouble Between EdftOrS-Rumors OF
Impending Duel.
New YORK, May 28.-For some days past
there have been rumors of an impending
CORY duel between Colonel John A. Cockerill
the new editor of the World, and ex-Mayor
A. Oakley Hall, the editor of Truth. The
casus belIi is understood to be founded on
some remarks of Mayor Hall printed and un-
printed to the effect that Messrs. Pulitzer
and Cockerill did not have dollars worth of
interest in the World, and that that paper
despite its nominal change of ownership was
still owned, like the st. Louis Post-Despatch,
by Jay Gould. Up to this time, however,
there has been no hostile meeting and inter
views o-night with Ralph Bayard of the Star
and Morris Warner of Truth, who are under
stood to represent respectively Messrs. Cock
Grill and Hall, show that there is no truth in
the story that the belligerents have hired a
tug and are about to blow each other topieces

No End Of Enn.

We regret 10 see tho New York World 80 in
harmonious as to charge that the democratic
state committee has made an "ovidont at
tempt to partially pack the nomination in adj
vance, For though all OF this we do most
powerfully and potently believe, yet do we
hold it malice to have it thus SGT down. The
New York city democrats nearly all belong
to Tammany Hail. Of which ancient organiza.
tion John Kelly is the chief sachem. The high
joint, swallow tail, better element democracy
quaffs its wine at tho clubs, and wears
English cut clothes. Tho swell state commit.
tee disregarded the fact that the state conven-
tion of last year recognized Tammany, de-
spite its bolt Of 1879, and ordered that the
New York city delegates should be ground
out at ballot boxes superintendent by the dude
wing. This means business as Whitelaw
Reid would say. The county democracy
would not be able to discover tho election OF
any Tammanyite who stands by his or.
der. And so Tammany will have pri-
maries Of its own. Thus two sets OF
delegates will go to the convention. and the
state committee will decide to which of these
the seats shall in the first instance bo given.
1t will naturally stand by its progeny, while
Tsmmany stands out in the cold Tho state
convention, with q full set of anti Tammany
delegates from New York city and no Tam
manyites, will then vote on the question oi
turning out the former and admitting the
latter, or of dividing the seats between the
factions. Tammany will be uproarious, and
will from the outside dictate to the conven,
tion the terms on which it will support the
ticket. If not obeyed, the jig is up with tn,
democracy if obeyed, the World and S,m will
be outraged, and the genteel democrats will
wonder what is the use of democratic part,
which is a mere tail to Kelly's kite. 1t will
bo exquisite fooling.

If tariff for protection is good thing as It's
advocates claim why should not the fundamental
law be amended so that each state may fence out
the products Of every other state2 Indeed why
should not each county be permitted to quaran-
tine by prohibitory tariff, against the industries
of every other county? Why limit the enjoyment
of a great blessing Warrington Post.
If a tariff that protects is so bad thing as
its opponents claim, why are they so anxious
to prove that a revenue tariff does necessarily
protect? AS to the above inquiries, does our
neighbor mean to claim that our government
ought to share its advantages with foreign
nations merely because the federal constitu-
tion makes trade free between our own states ?

A STAR ROUTE SCHEME.

Nice Littie Plan Set Up by MIR. Boone-
How the Department Proposes 60 De-
feat IL.
A short time agoa circular was received by
Acting Second Assistant Postmaster General
Lyman from a southern star route subcon.
tractor, who said that It had beon sent to him
by A. L. Boone, falling star route contractor.
1t was proposition by Boone that the sub
contractor (who was operating ono Of BoOne's
routes) should pay him In cash one-half OF
the amount Of his subcontract pay, and the
full contract price Of the route. In return
Boone promised TO make new subcontract,
giving the full contract pay TO the subcon.
tractor. Boone held over 100 star route
contracts when declared q falling
contractor, and in accordance with
law the department seizes upon any
profits that may accrue upon such Of his
routes as were operated at % profit and applies
them to make good the deficiencies caused by
the losses on other routes. Under the law
the failing contractor would be entitled only
after the money had been so applied.
In this case there was no excess, but, on
the contrary, Mr.. Lyman says the entire
profit would amount to much less than the
sum lost on tho remainder of the contracts
To defeat this attempted evasion of the law, q
circular has been addressed TO all Boone's
subcontractors, informing them that the de-
partment will refuse to permit such subcou
tracts to be filed, and stating that the govern
ment will not allow itself to be estopped from
appropriating the difference between the com
pensation of the subcontractor and Boone'l
pay toward the payment Of his debt.

During the next three months the factions
of the democratic party will battle for su-
premacy, and conclude their contest in
December by the election of their representa-
tive man to the speakership With their crimi-
nation, bitterness, and ill-feeling the republi-
can party has nothing to do and is interested
not overmuch in tho animosities engendered.
which will weaken democracy. The result
of their struggle is, however, looked forward
to with great degree of expectancy. In the
welfare of individual democratic leaders the
republican party has NO interest AS to the
ideas represented by those leaders, they are
more of Importance, because the strength
developed by either faction in the successful
choice of speaker will tend to foreshadow
and influence the making of the national
democratic platform.
"If you elect Mr.. Randall" says Mr. Wat
terson, "that means the dissolution and ulti-
mate extinction of the democratic party"
That is the vigorous expression of the free
trade wing of that party. On the contrary,
formidable faction, says that If Mr.. Randall
is opposed "the party may as we'll abandon
the idea of electing a president" That is an
exceedingly strong assertion, and damaging
concession. The impression is being indus
trously circulated by the rivals Of the OK
speaker that the republican party is desirous
of his success. Nothing could be farther
from the truth. The success of Mr.. Randall
will moan suppression of the tariff for
revenue only" plank of the democratic
platform. The election of his most
prominent competitor, Mr.. Carlisle, will
naturally result in the continuance of that
time-honored dogma of democracy. There

success of the kentucky statesman. In the
be potent enough to compel non-committal
statement of policy upon the tariff. That
would be in accordance with the recalcitrant
habit of the democratic party, and would be

the unconcealed desire of the republican
party to meet their opponents on fair and
honest declaration of principles. 1t is no
the wish of republicans to enter into con
