The arguments Before Judge UeIand-1he
End looked for To-day.
After the postponement for several
months past of the petition for the distri-
button of the estate of the late G. G. Wash
burn, deceased, it is now brought before
the probate court for final action.
Before the death of G. G. Washburn, he
made will, in it making provision for his
wife, who has been insane for number of
years past.
Mr.. Washburn being a resident of Wis
consin where he owned property, and also
owning property in Minnesota, the will
passed the probate court in both states
and guardian was appointed in each state
for his insane widow. Through he1
guardian Mrs. Washburn appeared at tbs
Minneapolis probate court renouncing the
will and claiming her one-third
interest in the estate situated
in Minnesota. The executors OBJ
iect to this upon the ground that
she must choose between the provisions OF
the will and her one-third interest and that
she cannot claim both.
G. W. Bum, of La Crosse, and G. K
Davis, of st. Paul, argue the case for the
guardian, while j. B. Gilfllan, W. P. Lynde,
of Milwaukee, and G. P. Binelle in behalf
of the executor.

THE POLICE.

The Instructions Impaired by the Mayor
Ito the New and Old Police Officers.
At o'clock last evening the police force
repaired to the municipal court rooms
for the purpose of listening to instructions
Mayor Ames addressed the members of.
the police department in substance as fol-
lows:
Gentlemen of the police force, you have
been called together for the purpose of
listening to certain instructions which it
becomes my Guty as the executive of the
city to import to you. 1 feel that
[ have a first class police force. But wish
to impress upon you that the first prere-
quisite of police force is discipline
and for that reason officers have been
placed over you. When you receive an Or
der from superior officer, those cree S
are imperative, All orders whether com
ing from a sergeant, lieutenant, caBtain or
chief himself must be obeyed. The next
qualification I shall exact is that every
member of the police force shall, under
all circumstances, be gentleman.
For one reason, the masses of the people
respect an officer if he be gen!Iemanly.
You must beaf in mind the fact that you
are the servants of the people, the hum
blest tax payer as well as the highest.
Don't make the mistake which is natural
for all new officers to fall into, that your
standard will be measured according to
the number of arrests which you shall
make. On the the other hand
you willQbe respected as more
vigilant officer if you can keep perfect
order on your beat without making sin
gle arrest during the year. No officer is
measured according to the number of ar
rests made and citizens fined. do not
want an officer to make the mistake of
considering himself detective. If a pa
trolman finds anything which to
him appears to be crooked, it is his duty
to at once report to a superior officer and
the matter will be properly cared for. 1

Tending the accused man. The jury was
then sworn in, one of whom is Parnellite.
1t is consequently expected the jury will
fail to agree.
The evidence of the witnesses for the
crown was merely a repetition of that Civ
en- in the cases of Joe Brady and Daniel
Curley. Jas. Carey swore that the conspir-
ators had resolved to murder Col Hitler
and Burke in consequence of an article
that appeared in the Freenlan'S Journal
speaking of the desirability of thorough
change of officials at Dublin castle, which
had become an Augean stable. This same
statement was made by Carey at the pre-
liminary examination of prisoners and
then declared by the FreednsGn'S Journal to
be due to the fact that e. Dwyer Gray, the
owner of that paper, when chairman of
the municipal committee, had charged Ca
rey, who was town counsellor, with conspir-
acy.
LONDON, April 19.-The Times says if
Lynch's evidence can be satisfactorily
proven. and it can be shown that O'Dona-
van Rosa furnished the large sum of
money fouAd on Gallagher, it will be a
question for consideration whether O'Don-
avian Rosaa cannot by some sort of inter-
national procedure be made amenable
to the laws of the empire. The Irish con-
sPirators, the Times says, must be consid-
cred criminals and not belligerents.

AMERTCAN INCENDIARTES IN ENG
LAND.

The confession OF Lynch. alias Norman,
one of the men arrested for completely in
the London dynamite plot, is important,
as it goes to show that that and other con-
spiracies to murder officials and destroy
property were concocted in this country
by persons claiming to be American citi-
zens, and being so in fact. 1t has been
charged all along by the English police
that the many atrocities committed during
the past two years in that country and
Ireland were instigated if not executed by
Irish Americans. This has been regarded
as mere surmise on this side of the water,
and has attracted no little ridicule
Lynch's statement is so circumstantial
however, and bears such strong internal
evidence of truthfulness, that the facts can
no longer be denied, but must be acknowl-
edged,
The facts brought out in this confession
will no doubt be brought to the attention
of our government by the British authori-
ties at an early day, when the question will
arise of how far American citizens
can go in their assaults upon q for
eign power with which we are at peace
without violating international law and
involving our government in war. We
have no doubt that if it was in their power
these dynamite Incendiaries would not
hesitate to precipitste war with England
in the hope that freedom for Ireland
might flow from it. But our government
does not wish to become imbroiled, and
should not permit any of its citizens by
overt acts to precipitate a conflict that
would only result in incalculable woe to
both countries. AS long as the incen-
diaries confined themselves to bloviating,
Eng land had no just cause for complaint,
but now that they have apparently re-
sorted to more extreme measures it is a
horse of different color, and presents an
emergency that will have to be met.
OF course, none of those Americans I'M
der arrest in England can claim the pro-
lection of the American government.
They were detected in fragrant violation
of the English laws, and will have to stand
the consequences just as British subjects
are held amenable for crimes committed
in this country. This principle has been
definitely settled. 1t is to be feared,
however, that matters have already pro-
crossed SO far that explanations and
apologies on the part of our government
will be Of no avail, and that Great Britain
will demand the exemplary punishment of
all those engaged in the plots that are exc
cuted in England and the suppression of
the secret societies where they originated
This would give our authorities pretty
big job-rather more than they would be
able to handle, while it might direct the
attention of the assassins to our officials
who, while simply doing their duty, would
become the targets OF the murderous mis-
slles OF the unreasoning enthusiasts who
are apparently ready to perpetrate any
crime, no matter how heinous, in further
ance OF their utopian ideas of emancipat-
ing the human race from the authority of
all government. The matter is certainly
assuming very serious aspect, and de-
mands the attention of our government
before it is too late.

The following letter or extract of a let
ter from a gentleman at Waterville, date
April 10, will give some idea of the size
and weight that carp attain in our waters:
1.-TWO years since 1 received twenty or
twenty-five carp from Washington and
put them in small pond on my place. l
raised the water with dam, but the first
year it did not hold up well and my man
said mot one 1Ue0thered the first lUinter.' I
looked last year many times and saw moth
ing of them and gave up having any left.
To-day my man said there were dead fish
on the lake shore. I at once sent him
after them and he found three dead ones
and brought them in. I do not know how
long they have been dead bat they were
twenty-one inches long and wei he'd SIX
pounds each. 1 am IN hopes there may
be a few left to spawn. If SO ali Q. K.
Last spring put another Iot Ia lake
near by, and this season those We re-
ceived in same place, l found the water
eight feet deep, so we think we will have d
good thing as there are ten acres and no
other fish, Yours, L. z. ROGERS.
Where small lakes are thus stocked it is
well to keep an air hole open through the
ice during the winter, and more particu-
larly towards spring, as the fish begin to
move about in the middle of February or
beginning OF March, and if they are under
such thick ice that there is no air accessi-
BILE they smother for want of it. l am in
hopes that Mr.. Rogers may find many of
the original stock have survived and are
doing well. R. O. SwEENY.

Col. Tom. OCHILTREE, NJ. c., from Texas
seemed 10 be in good humor with himself,
which is quite fortunate since that Is the
man he has to live with. Being in st. Louis
the other day, the distinguished Texan
called upon j. B. Mccullough, SNACK" of
the GlObe-Democrdt, and in q flowing, glow
ing way, talked of ''the most damnable
and Infamous conspiracy ever set on foot
to roo an American citizen of his birth
right and interfere with the prerogatiyes
of a congressman" This referred of
course to the proposition to stop the Col
oners pay as congressman, owing to the
fact that he had not settled up his accounts
with the United States when he was
marshal of Texas. Toms narrative is
mighty interesting reading:
''As l said before, these envieps polecats and
pGrTeyors of capital garbage raised the hue and
cry that | owed the government SO, 600. and
under the law could not draw my congressional
| salary. They got around an old rattle-brained
fellow named Lawrence, who, by some mystic
riOus dispensation of chance, happens to be the
first comptroller OF the treasury, and who has a
| mania for opinions, and they made him believe
| that 1 was not entitled to draw any money.
sitting at his desk in the treasury building, and
writing an opinion that a representative In con-
| gress must not have his pay! Why, the very
genius of bur government is that every public
official shall be paid for his services. This pro-
vision was expressly made to distinguish our in
situations from the effetes system of Europe.''
| "By-, sir, all of us are not Windows, Sher-
! mans, and Blainesi We can't all get rich and
| make money, and it would scatter the American
| CguorpSS To fraomentS If tha nav of
! tiges was Withheld. Charles 1. lost his head
for an offense that was not greater than that
advised by old Lawrence!'

| gument, full of irrefutable authorities, old

CARELESS doings about livery stables
have recently caused the wiping out
Of the entire business portions of both 2
Maryland and West Virginia town. In
many instances these establishments are
most dangerously managed by the habit
Of smoking therein, added to the necessity
Of visiting all parts of the premises with
lanterns at night, and the only safeguard
about many of them seems to be the fact
that there is most always some one awake
