ERVIEWs.

81 am surprised" said one gentleman, ito
see such action on the part OF the Democrats
of Tennessee. / look upon il as a clesr
breach of faith on their part. In the June
convention, of which l was a member, re-
member we decided to pay the State debt
proper in full at six per cent. interest, and
we cannot honestly afford TO go back on it,
All these matters were discussed in that con-
vention, and we had the most prominent
speakers of the State here TO give us their
views. The result of the election was the
Endorsement OF the Democratic platform,
and how the men elected upon that platform
can now go deliberately against it, is one of
those things no fellow can find out"
Il was very much disappointed" said an
other gentleman, when l heard of the action
OF the caucus. l thought there was nothing
more completely settled than the position of
the Democratic party on this State debt
issue. The action OF the caucus Is calcu-
lated to bring about dissensions in the party
and mar the good effects accomplished by
the election"

ference between ausrry dimension and
net dimensions. The former being
the cubic dimensions Of stone as taken
from the quarry, and the latter the Gu
bic dimensions based upon the space
which the stone will occupy in the
building. Sinemstz stated THAT in
making contracts it was the custom IL
stipulsre the dimension as in the case
of the Philadelphia building. Hill had
contracted for qusrry dimensions and
in this wsy compelled the government
TO pay greatly in excess of the market
value of the stone actually used. He
further testified he had made computa-
tions fr.m plans fur ished him by the

based upon their true or net dimension.

A SHORT SHRIFT.

l.
ST. LOUIS, June 5.-A special from
hermann, Gasconade county, Mo-, says
that the city was thrown into a state of
intense excitement shortly after mid
night this morning by the lynching of
Whitney, the murderer of young Bur-
chard. The mob numbered about 200
They surrounded the Jail, guards being
stationed with drawn reviewers to keep
back the curious crowd which was at
trscted by the noise in beating in tse
j Ill doors. The jailer refused to sur
render the keys, when axes were
brought. Whitney understood the pur-
pose of the assault and crouch ed upon
his cell floor and prayed fervently. His
voice could be heard outside. The jail
er was forced to lead the way
to Whitney's cell, which was
then forced open. A loug rope the
mob had brought with them was
put around his waist. Half fainting
the doomed man fell on his knees VIXEN
once in open air and asked leave
to pray again. This WAS granted, but
as he continued his appeal to heaven
too long, he was jerked to his feet and
dragged through the town into dense
woods that covers the bluffs. A dozen
of the lynching party warned the
crowd not to follow and intimidated
them bya display Of revolvers.
When the woods were reached the
prisoner was handed over to dozen
naked men. He said his real name
was Fisher and not Whitney; that his
parents lived In Virginia. He did not
know whether he killed Burchard or
no, as he and his partner whose
name was Collier, fired tive shots each.
He then shook hands with part
of the mob, bidding them good
bye" after which he was strung
to tree. The mob then dispersed
and the sheriff took charge OF the
body this morning, and the coroner is
now holding an inquest. Whitney was
desperate Of the James stripe. He

Barbcd Wire.

PATENTS THEREON DECLARED VOID.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, June Sin the Uni
ted States Circuit Court to-day, Judge
Treat rendered decision of import
ance to people in all parts of the Uni
ted States, in which he refused to
grant a temporary injunction to the
Washburn Moen company against a
number of defendants, thus setting the
great barbed wire fence controversy,
on the ground that the Kelly & Gid
den patents were old. Under these
patents the said company claimed ex-
elusive right to manufacture barbed
wire of all kinds, or TO grant Ii ,enses TO
other companies TO manufacture the
same under such restrictions ~ the
com pany saw fit to impose. The de-
cision rendered to-day is leng tiny, and
covered all points in the case, deciding
against the monopoly and opening
the manufacture OF barbed wire TO all
companies. The subordinate question
of the right to make or use the ma
chine for making the barbed wire was
also decided against the company.

The Speakership.

SAM RANDALL AS DODGER.
WASHINGTON, June Sit is repre-
sented that Mr.. Randall, to avoid COM
mitting himself directly on the tariff
question in his contest for the speaker
ship, has openly expressed himself in
favor of an entire abolition of the in
ternal revenue, except small tax on
whisky. In fact, friend of his said
today that Mr.. Randall favored wip-
ing out the internal revenue system as
rapidly as it can be done, without too
seriously stfecting the revenues of the
government, retaining at present only
part OF the tax on spirituous liquors
This e ntlenan, who is watching
the peakership fight very closely, say 3
the opposition TO Randall is very
strong and determined. He thinks q
very powerful combination will be
formed against him by rival candidates,
probably resulting finally in his defeat.
At all events the caucus contest will be
prolonged, and frequent adjournments
will be taken, indefinitely postponing
the result. He would not be surprised
if the election of speaker did net take
place before the holidays.

1HE great republican organ of Wis
consin can not strike the word, prohi
bitionists, without gritting the teeth. 1t
can see no good motives in that party,
never fails to snsrl at mention of them
or their aims. This is the growl it gives
the proh;bitionists of Massachusetts:
"Prohibitonists generally who have not besu
satisfied with the republican failure to sustain
ne sisten,Iy a cast-iron prohibitory law have
voted for Butler, as they would have voted for
the devil himself to punish the republicans"
The prohibitionists of Wisconsin will
be just the nicts. people in the world
in the Sentinel's estimation, If they will
abandon their own convictions and
come iuto the republican camp, vote
the tickets their bosses provide for
them, and permit a little junto of ma
chine managers to run the party, dis
pense its spNls, and play fast and loose
with both rum and religion.
