Fell From The Brooklyn Bridge.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept 5.
A man named Frank Robinson went to
the Charity Hospital Saturday and asked to
be admitted as patient. DIR. Miles exam
med him and found that he was suffering
from internal inflammation. Robinson said
that on December 16 last he fell from the
New York and Brooklyn Bridge, distance
of ninety-six feet, into the water, and
struck on his left side. He doubt
less then sustained the injury from
which he is now suffering. Robinson was
engaged in boiling the bridge. He said that
he was standing near the first pillar of the
bridge, when he stepped on a loose plate,
which tilted, throwing him over. In his
descent his foot struck an iron rod, causing
him to turn over and over several times,
The breath was almost knocked out of his
body when he struck the water, but he con-
trived to- swim ashore unaided. He ex-
perienced no trouble at first, but since his
return here he has been growing worse, and
fatal termination of his injuries is feared.

THE PARTY OF CAPITAL.
An Independent Journal Accuses Re.
publicans of Siding without
Monopoly.
New York Herald.

Some weeks ago we were moved to
point out the singular unanimity with
which leading republican journals flew
to the assistance of the telegraph CorpO-
rators against the strikers The EgeRing
Post led on with a cool proposition that
telegraph aud railroad strikes should be
forbidden by law. Photographers. rail
road men, postofice clerks and policemen
fill places in modern society very much
like soldiers" added the Eoening Post,
and told the workmen that if they do not
like such restrictions they can keep out
of calling in which strikes are not al
lowable."
The Commercial AdoertiSer, another
influential republican organ, about the
same time spoke of the striking workmen
CONTEMPORARY as IAN infnitessimal
fraction of the population" and called
for the senate labor committee to come
here and stop striking" The Tribune,
another influential republican organ,
spoke with horror of the strikers as a
secret and oathbound brotherhood, -
whose proceedings were intolerable and
dangerous, and whose demands were
especially Objectionable in the way they
were presented" The Mail and EGpress,
another influential republican organ, was
fearful over the strike. which, it declared,
threatened to be 1.-THE beginning of new
era of tyranny over honest and ambitious
labor and terrorism over capital"
The republican journals all over the
country in considerable number made
haste to follow these influential organs of
republican opinion and policy, and ranged
themselves on the side of corporations
aGd against the workingmen SO general
WAS this that we were led to remark that
tho laborlng men of the country must
therefore, it seems, take into account that
there is a considerable and influential
opinion, mainly republican, which will, II
it can gain Roadway, cause the passage OF
laws prohibiting strikes in certain en-
ployments, and if in some at first, logic
ally in all at the end. This is matter
which deserves their attention, and moi
theirs only"
The intimate relations of republican
magnates with the chiefs of great and
powerful corporations are a matter oil
common discussion; it needed the ext
gency of strike to make the defence oil
corporations turn into general attack or
unsatisfied workmen. But we have just
now another. and it seems to US, equally
striking statement of the republican policy
toward workingmen. 1t comes from Mr.
Kasson, long a member of congress
lately minister to Austria, and in the las
house of representatives, prominent
candidate for the speakership.
We had occasion some days ago t.
praise discussion by ex-Mayor Grace il
Harpers Magazine, of the problem Of
municipal government. Mr.. Grace urged
that the fertile cause of maladministratior
in New York aud other great cities of the
state is that their affairs are controlled
and legislated upon at Albany, where
they become the sport of state politician.
