New YORK. May t6-It was reported, yes
terday, that Thomas II. Dockery, late cashier
of the Graphic company, had been arrested
on a charge Of embezzement When called
upon at Ludlow-street Jail by reporter, Mr.
Dockery, who is a quiet, well-dressed gen
tlemanl y.looking man about thirty years
old, declined to speak of his case, winch, he
said, was entirely private matter in which
the public had no concern. Mr. Goodscll.
the manager Of the Graphic company. was
not at his Office when the reporter called.
Mr.. George B. Ashley, counsel for the
Graphic company, said: There is no Grim
inal charge against Mr.. Dockery. The suit
against him Is simply on account of a differ

A Lesson from the Cyclone.
Kansas City Journal.

Kansas City Journal.
The small loss life is the marvel on look
ing at the ruins. This comes from the fact
that owing to the electric character Of the
cloud the walls of house fall out instead of
being blown in" as is so often asserted. The
accidents will be found to be in accord with
this fact Then from its movements, the
southwest corner of q house on the ground
floor is safer than any other part. and the
cellar safest of all, because the surface of the
ground when reached quickly restores the
electrical equilibrium and suspends its force.
As Kansas City was never visited before, it
may be generation before it has another,
but the lessons to be learned here yesterday
are of value to the people of half dozen
States, the entire West, and may help others
to avoid the worst effects of the monsters of
the air.

A Contrast Well Put.

Gen. Morton's Address for the State.
May it please the court and gentlemen
of the jury, in the gray of the morning of
April 27, 1883, Philip B. Thompson shot and
killed Walter II. Davis because he believed
Davis had debauched his wife. The dis
tinguished senator from Indiana says Thomp-
sons act in Staying Davis was right; that the
killing was justified by the law of Cod
nature and man, and the act presented the
noblest test of the highest form of civiliza-
ton. This is not true. The act was wrong,
condemned by all law, human and divine,
and illustrates the lowest type of civilization.
There lived in the city of New Orleans a
gentleman of courage, intellect and culture.
He was member of the Congress of the
United States and the chief figure of the
cabinet of the Confederate States. He was
ambitious and a statesman. Information
of his wife's infidelity came to him. He
carefully examined the facts and ascertained
the truth. He put his wife away in sorrow
and tears. She was the mother of his chill
dren. He recollected the past and his honor.
The honor of his family required him to
throw the mantle of charity over the faults
of his SHINING wife. The wife
eventually eloped with her seducer. Judah
p Benjamin did not follow with the pistol
kindly eyes followed his unfortunate and
erring wife, and when she was cast off and
was reduced to destitution, in memory of all
that the woman had been to him and his
children, be made ample provision for her
support. In silence and patience his heart
bled but his endurance made him strong.
The wreck of the Confederacy came. He
gathered up the fragments, broken for
tune, entered his profession at the English
bar, and in short while was pre-eminent,
and to-day is the greatest lawyer in the
world. In his success he did not forget his
erring wife, but she received from him an
nually $6 600. We ask a contrast of the two
pictures. Which illustrates the noblest type
of Christian civilization? Senator Voorhees,
says the former; we say the latter. Around
one gathers the darkness OF barbarism about
the other gathers the halo of Christ and His
teachings. Gentlemen of the jury, if you
have any doubt as to the picture which rep
resents the purest and noblest type of our
manhood, examine the instructions The
law condemns the type presented by the
Senator. Besides in this age neither the vir-
tue or fidelity of women is maintained by
the shotgun policy, but by love and sincere
confidence

Danger Ahead for Joseph.


The campaign against Joe Mcdonald has
begun already in Indiana. One of his news
paper enemies charges that he was an attor-
ney for the driven-well patent which makes
every man who owns a driven well pay $40
royalty. In case Joe Mcdonald should be
made the Democratic candidate for Presi-
dent this would make great issue against
him in the West. 1t might possibly over
shadow the question of revenue reform.

that at Manchester, Mass. The sonorous
quality of its sands extends but few inches
downward By pulling a board over the sur
face of the beach, the sands give forth mu-

sound is probably due to the peculiar forma-

Wallace Defeats Dion at the Billiard Tour
nament.

New YORK, May 16,-At the fourth game
of the billiard tournament this afternoon,
Thomas Wallace Ia Chicago boy) defeated
Joseph Dion, the vanquisher of Vignaux.
Wallace did good, steady work. When the
game was called in the sixtieth inning he had
scored 800 to 243 for Dion, and still playing
strongly. Wallace repeatedly added good
counts to his score, turning his fourth
hundred in the seventy inning. He
stopped in this inning at 407, Dion's score
standing 302 Dion played better after this,
but could not reach his opponent, who ran
the game out in the ninety-second inning,
leaving Dion at 377.
II was expected that the evening game
between Jacob Schaffer and Eugene
Carter would draw house full
of people, but less than 300 witnessed the
contest. A fine opening by Schaffer gave
promise of a spirited and quick game.
But during the first half of the
contest Carter, who it was thought
would have little show with the
champion, played all round him. Toward
the end Schaffer recovered, and, although he
never played brilliantly, he managed to win
by 40 points in 81 innings,

Sullivan and MitchelI-The Former viii Not
Again Enter the Ring.

Again Enter the Ring.
New York Special
Sullivan, the pugilist was asked to-day if
Mitchell is as hard a hitter as he is repre-
sented to be. NO" replied Sullivan, II do
not think he is. 1 know he did not hurt me
at any time last night 1 could have used
him rougher than did, but 1 did not want
to do anything that might arouse hostile
criticism, and kept myself as we'll in bounds
as possible. In the first round ne attempted
to throw me over the ropes. 1 suppose he
thought it would be big thing to let the
crowd see that he could dispose of me in that
manner. At the time he made that attempt
l could have knocked his head against the
floor, and left him in such dazed condition
that he would not be able to get up for half
an hour. People talk about the great differ
ence in our size and weight. Half of them
do not know what they are talking about.
don't think can be such giant as l am
represented, when only stand feet 1917
inches in my stocking feet | only stand
about two inches taller than Mitchell"
Who do you think is the best man you
have ever met, with or without the gloves?'
That is hard to say; but l think Jimmy
Elliott was about the best. He certainly was
as game man as | ever encountered.
Sullivan added that he intended never to
enter the ring again. He will be willing at
all times, he said, to accommodate aspiring
pusilists with the gloves, but will never fight
again with naked fists. He is of the opinion
that his reputation would not be one bit bet
ter if he were to whip fifty men in the ring
instead of one. He could only have the
| title Of champion in any event, and be con-
siders he has earned that title by this time
and he does not see why he should be ex-
pected to fight in the ring with everybody
who might challenge him. Sullivan's decla-
ration in this regard decisively settles the
question whether he or Slade, the Maori,
shall ever come together in an actual prize
fight.
