made the complaint, testified that while the

number of boxes which were subsequently
found to contain rifles were loaded at Nealie

Gov. Butler Rampant.

The readers of yesterdays newspa-
pers were about as much startled by the
account OF Gev. Buffers sudden move
ment against the Tewksbury authorities
rs by the reports of the devastating effects
of the cyclone in the Mississippi. Only
one side of the case had been heard by the
investigating committee. Not witness
had been heard in defence of the manage
ment of the institution. Nevertheless
Gov. Butler assumed the case was proved
against the institution and entered judg-
ment accordingly by placing the aims
house-or attempting to place it-in the
care of the State Board of Health.
The people of Massachusetts will hard
ly consent to this method of disposing of
the charges against the almshouse. They
will ask to hear both sides, to have the
whole truth in the case laid before them,
before they pass judgment. and be like
ly to consider the Governors haste due
more to his desire to act a sensational
part than to zeal in favor of needed re-
form in the institution. We recolect that
the Boston papers at the time the Maine
Insane Hospital was investigated passed
Judgment against the institution before
witness was heard in its defence, denounc
ing in the severest manner the manage
ment solely on reports from ex attendants
and persons who had been treated in the
Hospital for lunacy; but we see that they
have grown wiser since the result in this
State, or have more tender regard tor
the fame of their own State. and do not
propose TO have the same harsh rule Il ply
in the case of the Tewksbury institution
which they thought was good enough for
our Maine institution.

Cabinet Meeting.

The cabinet meeting. today, was at
tended by all the members, including the
new postmaster general. The session lasted
about and half, and was devoted to the
consideration of foreign affairs and the new
civil service regulations.
There was also some informal conversation
at the meeting today with regard to the ev;-
deDce furnished by the newspapers, that
persons in the United States are actively en-
gagged in aiding and directing the dynamite
plotters in England. This conversation did
not grow out of any official correspondence
upon the subject, for no document of any
kind relating to it was presented, but there
is reason to believe that the hypothe teal
question was formed and discussed, and that
the members of the cabinet generally ex-
pressed their views as to what the policy of
this country should be in various suggested
contingencies which might arise out of the
manifest disposition of Irish leaders to use
this country as basis for attacks by means
of dynamite and nitro -glycerine upon the
English government and English people.

How Pensioners Are Swindled.

The Commissioner of Pensions has issued
a circular stating that numerous complaints
have reached his office that INSCRIPTIONS per-
sons are travelling throughout the country
claiming that they are authorized TO rep
resent the Commissioner of Pensions, and up
on this and various otherpretexts have defraud-
ed pensioners and applicants for pensions. The
Commissioner directs that all special exam
liners shall give notice that no special exam
liner or other person employed by the Pension
Office is authorized to receive money either
as fee or expenses. and all such examiners
are provided with certificates bearing the sig
nature of the Commissioner of Pensions and
the Secretary of the Interior Therefore, if
any person in the absence of such authority,
should represent that he is special examin-
er of the Pension Office, or shall demand or
obtain money under any pretense whatever,
he may be safely set down as swindler.
Commissioner Dudley states that 1t is his
earnest desire that prompt and vigorous
measures be taken to bring these offenders to
justice, and says that in order that this class
of imposition may be published as widely as
possible each case of defraudiug claimants or
pensioners should be reported by some re-
sponsible person, with full description of
the impostor to the Commissioner of PEN
sions, who will at once instruct his special
examiner 70 give the public proper warning.

A st. Adams special dispatch says rapid

A Dangerous Malady.
HUMAN VICTIMS OF THE HORSE. CHAMBER
PoIsoNING IN ILLINOIS.

There is great excitement in Morrison
county, Illinois, over poisoning of persons by
CHAMBERS in horses. After the visit of the
State veterinarian to Gcnesse Township,
Whitesidc County. recently, where this terri
BILE plague first appeared. it was supposed
that the disease had been wholly mastered.
All horses afflicted with the dread disease
were ordered to be killed and the rest
quarantined. The State Board of Health
also ordered thorough disintecting of the
premises upon which the diseased horses
were kept, and advised the township board of
health to cut down and burn all the hitching
posts in and around Coleta, the latter being a
small village in close proximity to the con-
demned premises.
1t seems that the above orders have not
been fully complied WITH and the disease
claimed several victims in adjoining town
ships. In Carroll county, Wellington Con-
way and his son have died of this dangerous
contagious malady, which causes the flesh to
actually drop off the face in puIrid chunks.
The boy, lad of eighteen years, was the
first to suecumb. A very large number of
people attended the funeral, one knowing
the true nature of the fatal complaint
Several persons attended each in his sickness.
and as the symptoms of the disease are not
always visible tor some weeks after infection,
those people are being closely watched.

MYSTERIOUS EXPLOSION.

BosroN. April "a.
A very mysterious explosion occurred
Monday evening in the mineral water fac
tory of 4. +. Scannell, l64 Charles street.
Scannell states that in his absence, Monday
evening, a man whom he had known for some
months by the name of Corcoran went into
the factory inquiring for him. The man
walked about in an excited manner utteriDg
some incoherent sentences, and was heard to
say several times, dublin castle is blown
up" Immediately after he left the
explosion occurred between some filler and
empty French syphons. 1t is supposed Cor
coran had thrown some explosive material
among them and l03 bottles we're blown to
atoms; no one was injured. Mr.. Scanned
was formerly treasurer ofthe west end branch
of the land league and thinks he made Cor
eoran's acquaintance during his term of
Office. Corcoran said he was engaged in a
powder mandatory at Ballincollv, Ireland.
and WAS going to work in a dynamite factory
on the Hudson. There was no unfriendly
nature between them.

The Iowa Amendment Case.

The opinion Of the Supreme Court of
Lava in the prohibitory amendment case
was filed on the 21st. The opinion was
written by the Chief Justice. 1t decides
that the prohibitory amendment to the
State constitution is unconstitutional and
void.
The prohibitory amendment in question
originated with the Eighteenth General
Assembly of Iowa. IL was approved by
the Nineteenth General Assembly and sub
mitted to vote of the people at special
election in June of last year, when it was
ratified by majority of about 10000.
Last fall the validity of the amendment
was called in question. buyer of liquor
having refused to pay for il on the ground
that its sale was prohibited by the consti-
tuition, and the seller having brought suit
to recover the amount due. In behalf OF
the plaintiff the plea was set up that the
constitutional amendment was not proper
ly adopted, inasmuch as the Journal OF the
House of Representatives in the Eigh-
teenth General Assembly did not show
that it had passed that body at all, and
the form in which it was considered in
that branch differed from that in which
it passed the Senate. The tact was estab-
lIshed that the Joint resolution embodying
the amendment was not set forth in the
Journals, and it did not appear upon them
whether or not it differed in its terms as
considered in the two Houses. Neither
did it appear that it had been adopted in
any form in the lower House. On this
state Of facts it was decided by the lower
court in November that the amendment
was null and void This view was upheld by
the Supreme Court on appeal in January
Of the present year, and is confirmed in
the decision just rendered denying the
petition for rehearing in the case.

Some Difficulty Concerning the Import.
alton of American Pork.

BERLIN, April a.
The North German Gazette today has an
article severely critcizing report from MIR.
Sargent American minister here, to the
American Secretary of State, published in
the New Yorker Handles Zeitung. on March
10, in regard to the action of Germany on
the Importation of American pork. The
North German Gazette, after referring to
what il regards as a suggestion of reprisals
in the report, says it is remarkable to find
Sargent's signature at the foot. If the re-
port suggests reprisals in order to force the
American trichiDa upon German consum-
ers, it raises an argument similar to that
which formed the basis of the Chinese opiu IN
war.

storm near Sherman, Wyoming Territory,
the Union Pacific trains bound east are

the Australian mails through in time to con-

that the connection can be made with the
steamer sailing from New York on Saturday
