Com ments ON the Election.

The New York Tribune, Republican.
says: Yesterdays work makes Repub.
lican success possible in the next Presi-
dental contest. If New York, Mas
ga sachusetts and Pennsylvania had all
followed Ohio in going Democratic this
fall, few would have been hopeful
enough to believe that 30 overwhelming
a current could have been tnrned b'ck
in a single year. Now everybody can
see that fighting ground is left; that
the Republicans can fairly hope by good
conduct and good fortune to carry
every State they had in 1889; and that,
as against party 80 prone 10 blunder
and with SO many chAnCncs to biunder
az the Democrats, their prospect for
carrying enough of them Is more than
fair.
The Philadelphia Record, Dem, says.
The elections yesterday indicate that
the battle of 1884 has begun. The X :
publican party, brought TO realizing
sense of its peril by the October
elections in Ohio and Iowa, has made
desperate stand to recover SO far az
possible its loss of prestige. The
blunders Of the Democracy in New
Jersey and New York have wonderfully
assisted their political opponents. These
States, which have been counted as
certain to cast their votes for Demo-
cratic Candidate for the Presidency,
may now be fairly considered debatable
ground. Massachusetts returns to her
Republican fea!,y; Maryland persists
in her Democracy and Virginia, after
a most desperate struggle, has repu-
dated Malone.
The Philadelphia Times, Ind, says
Had Democratic power been faithful Of
the trust given it in generous conf
dence, Pennsylvania would have voted
Democratic yesterday as surely as the
setting of the sun, and the electoral
vote of the State would have been set.

q number of colored men were congre-

accompanied by Jerry X -nnedy-no
relation to Daniel Ken edy-came into
the hall and loafed around They went
out, and later Topper returned with
his right haud bound up and bleeding,
He said that he had had a row with
Dan Kennedy. A few momentes later
Kennedy came in and got into an alter.
cation with Topper. They finally shook
hands. Then some incident of the past
was recalled and both men grew angry.
Their language WAS violent for a mo
ment, when Kennedy drew r yoIvel
and fired straight at Topper, who wa,
only a few fee away. Vincent B-a-
ner, cOlOred, was standing almost be
tween the two men and the powder from
kennedy's revolver burned q streak
across his cheek.
Topper received the shot in the lower
part of his chest, and staggering across
the hall, fell upon his knees, with his
head upon his hands, upon bench,
The crowd separated anu Kennedy fol
lowed closely on Topper as he tottered
to the place where he fell. upou CON

his revolver deliberately az Topper
back and fired, it is said, three more
shots. These shots took effect in Top

A gentleman named J. Grady, . for
mer Wilmingtonian, but now connected
with prominent hotel In New York
city, 10 about to enter suit against the
p. W. q b. Railroad, for ejecting him
from . train, and has placed his case In
the hands of Hoffecker s. Hofiecker, at
t0rneys of this city. The circumstances
Of the case are briefly a. follows: On
Sunday evening last Mr.. Grady left
New York on the New York and Wash
ington express train, bound for Balti.
more to visit the bedside Of his sick
wife.
He purchased ticket and had seve.
raj pieces of baggage checked, and az.
rived at Broad street station without
any difficulty. Having some business
to attend to In Philadelphia he decided
to remain over night, and accordingly
registered al the Hotel Lafayette and
started out TO transact his business.
Being successful In seeing his men, he
returned to the hotel aud decided not to
remain over night. After offering to
pay for his room, which was refused, he
made his way to the depot, and when
the gates were opened he showed his
ticket, which was duly punched and
he boarded the train.
Soon AFTER the train passed down the
road, tho conductor, whose name
is given as McCloskey, began to collect
tickets, and upon approaching Mr..
Grady, that gentleman was unable to
hnd the pasteboard but declared he had
it and requested the conducto to pass
on and in the meantime he would find
IT. The official refused TO move on
without the ticket, whereupon the man
offered TO pay the fare, when the con
ductor exclaimed with an oath: ~
want your ticket or you will have to
get out. "
The man appealed to his fellow pas.
sengers for protection, which no angered
the railroad official that he grabbed
his victim by the neck and hustled him
from the car, the train having come to
IL stand still. The man resisted, and in
doing so was badly bruised about the
hands and legs. This happened II
short distance bey md Gray 's Ferry and
the man was 80 bewildered for time
that he did not know where he was or
whittier to 90, but meeting some rail
road men he told them his story who
put him aboard freight train, which
brought him to this city, and att r con-
sulting a lawyer he departed for Balti.
more on another train. After he was
elected from he cars his hat was thrown
out after him and badly damaged, his
eye glasses were broken and several
small articles were also lost. After
being elected from the train he dis.
covered his ticket between the lining
and back of his pocket-book or wallet.
The hat, glasses and ticket are in the
hands of his attorneys, and unless a
satisfactory adjustment Is made at once,
suit will be entered against the Com
pany, and these effects will be brought
in evidence. Mr.. Grady was perfectly
sober and is described as being gentle
man in every particular, and the un-
gentlemanly actions of the otficious
conductor are severely criticised.
