DANGERS or COMPARTMENT CARS.

Another frightful episode illustrates the dan
gers of tho system of compartment cars to
which the English people have pertinaciousy
adhered. A compartment was occupied by
three persons man, woman and lunauc.
After tho train had left n station, the lunatic
made a savage attack upon thc.man, beating
him until he was inscnsiblc. The doors of the
compartment were locked and there was no
means of giving an alarm or Of stopping the
train. The mailman having exhausted his frcn-
zcd energies in the first assault, RETAINED from
attacking the remaining occupant. 50 that she
was able TO attract attention at the first station
and obtain assistance. This terrible incident
calls to remembrance many similar assaults by
murdcrerS in compartment cars. Mr. Gold was
murdered by LEROY on the Brighton Railway
after desperate struggle, the body being
thrown out of the window rs the train WIS pass
ing through tunnel; and the official, and the
police did not have sufficient sclf-pO,~rS>ion to
arrest the guilty man when he appeared blood
stained and exhausted upon the opening OF the
compartment. Thomas Briggs in like manner
was murdered in a compartment car. and his
assailant escaping to America would have sue
cecdcd in cluding pursuit if he had not ey-
changed hats with his victim and subsequently
displayed the stolen watch-chain. Thi, new
railway horror is only one of long series Of
murdcrous assaults committed under similar
circumstances.
It Is probable THAT the cutlery raised against
the compartment system at the time of the Gold
murder will be repeated now with added en-
phasi-. The London journals have not hest o.
atcd 10 advocate the Introduction Of cars con %
,trictcd on the American plan and the railway
officials require very slight encouragement in
order to abandon the old system. The Midland
Railway Corporation has recently purchased the
stock of the Pullman Company used on its line
and decided to afford the travelling public the
advantage and conyeniences OF the American
train service. The English prejudice against
that service has gradually been overcome, the
experience of trans Atlantic travellers on
American railways having taught them that as
much privacy and FAR more freedom, comfort
and security were furnished in the night and
day coaches of the first class in use here.

SPECIMEN DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS


The success of the Democratic party in TINS
CITY means the triumph of the lowest elements
in political life. glance at the nominations
of that party is proof of the fact. vi It's cahoi-

dcrmcn. so far as chosen, thirty OF them are
either Iouor-sclcrs or former owners oil GIN

remaining candidates there are TOmbs shysters
and men of equally unsavory regulations.
An honest fearless Democrat cannot retain n

bosscs' organizations longer than the time ne
ccssary to disclose his independence Hence
whom candidates have to be chosen for Mayor,
mr. Supreme Court Justices, or any place on
which the full bright sunlight of publicity Is
thrown. tLc bosses have 10 select men who are

4 OUEER BARGAIN.

A curious transaction in the Bradford oil
market, as reported to Cincinnati paper, sug-
gcsts considerations of general application in
the business world. One dealer gave to an
other 10000 barrels of oil without any pay
whatever, except that the receiver agreed to
pay storage OH the oil for ten yeats The de-
livery was equivalent to a loan of $3.50 600 the
contract was that 20 cents day for each 900
barrels, or S21 each day, should be paid in
monthly .instalments for ten years. The pay

nam II WAS noticeable and significant that Inc
gathering was not o partisan one. ihere "eio
more Republicans there than Democrats nat
urally Ibut the anti Hendrix Democrats, made up
a fair minority. Mr.. Beecher presided ana
spoke, and addresses were made by Mayor Low
A. w. Tenney, B. 4. Beach and others. All the
speeches were well received, but the plymouth
pastor and the Mayor excited the greatest inter
est The substance of what they said VIII DC
found elsewhere in this impression The intense
spirit of the whole affair indicates that the
Brooklyn Experiment is not yet failure.
The members of the Extreme Left in the
Chamber of Deputies yesterday began the Worh
of hectoriDg the Government in connection win
the Tonduin affair. NJ. Granet asked what the
Ministry were seeking in China, and how they
meant to get it. He charged the Government
with publishing contradictory statements NJ
Chalemel-L gave tolcraDy temperate
reply, but did not say much beyond tllaV
the Government knew what they were
about and were not afraid OF China. HIS tone
indicated that the Ministers feel sure that u
majority of the Deputies will sustain them III
their Tonuuin policy. If their confidence Is
based upon some arrangement with the Mon
archists as seems probable, they are only delay
ing their fall little. Meanwhile, the events
in Tonquin move rapidly toward war; 1t is
reported that regular Chinese troops have
passed the frontier of Yunnan into Tonquin.
The care which the Republicans all through
this State exercised in making the recent nomi-
nations, especially for the Assembly and Senate,
is having an excellent effect. Having candi-
dates whom it was worth while working for,
even slothful members ofkthe party have been
stirred to enthusiasm and interest. As a result
the news from the interior indicates the election
of the Republican State ticket. AT Albany,
generally considered to be Democratic strong
hold. the Democrats are reported to be sadly
discouraged. They see no chance to run in
their men through Republican discussions.
Equally pleasing reports come from Rensselaer,
County. Throughout the southern tier OF
counties Republicans are everywhere confident
of success for Senate and Assembly candl-
dates. These facts should stimulate the Re
publicans in this city to renewed exertions.
The party nominations here are infinitely SUI
perior to those made by the Democrats. II
every registered Republican does his duty there
need be no fear of the result.

Connecticut is not alone in her criminal mys-
ferries. Certain towns and counties III Illinois
and New Jersey are now greatly excited over
murders as remarkable as those of Jennie Cra-
mer and Rose Clark. In Lincoln, Ill., young
woman about to be married was recently found
with her throat cut and at Perth Amboy, New
Jersey, the headless body of woman has been
discovered in the woods. In neither case is
there the slightest clew which promises to lead
to the detection of the murderer. At Perth
Amboy the authorities have been especially slow
In their invest gatOus, but it must be admitted
that little progress can be made on nothing 1t
may be true that murder will out bat it is also
true that many murdcrers are never found out.
Considering the immensely of the ferry travel
to and from New-York, it is indeed a matter of
wonder and congratulation that We have so few
accidents However, if many of the pilots were
as careless as those who were managing the Pa
vonia and the .Wichawken fortnight ago when
che boats ran into each other il would not be
nearly so safe as it is to live in New jersey OF
Brooklyn. An investigation of the collision re-
fered to (Which would have been terrible if
the boats had not been as strong as bat
tering rrms) shows that it was caused by the
combined carclessncss of the pilots. They have
been properly suspended for some time. This
ought TO be lesson TO the companies as well as
TO the pilots.

On last Tuesday evening mutiny oc-
CURED at the Territorial Prison which
came near being attended with serious
results. Four prisoners, named Will
liams, Richie, Banks, and Billy the Kid.
No 2, made q break for liberty, and but
for prompt action on the part of the
guards would have succeeded. Being
near the outer gate they caught the
turnkey, Mr.. Freddy, and, keeping him
between them as protection from the
guns of the guards, they rushed out of
the enclosure. Before they were many
feet from the gate, however, the turnkey
got loose from them, and the guards,
with their guns in position, called upon
them to turn back. AS the game was
up they obeyed, and were locked up for
the night. They each had rock tied
in handkerchief as weapon. In the
morning, while the prisoners were in the
main hall, after breakfast, the Superin-
tendent Of the prison called for these
four men, in order to punish them. They
defed his authority and refused to come
out. AS there we're about seventy five
desperate men in the hall at the time,
and the four leaders had stones with
which to defend themselves, it was no
easy matter to go in and take them.
Capt. Meeden soon learned what his au-
thority was, and with a loaded Win
chester rifle in his hands, gave the men
sixty seconds in which to retire to their
cells They retired. The cells were
