FIGHTING IN THE JUSTICES ROOM.

James Byrnes who is also known as James James,
brought "a suit against his uncle, Mathew Byrnes, a
contractor of No. 20 Park-ave., for 500, which he

HOW JITMBO FARES IN WINTER QUARTERS.

Jumbo p. T. Barnum's famous elephant, has now
been in this country nearly year. Alter travel
ling through most of the Eastern States and part
of The West he is housed winter quarters at
bridgeport Mr.. Bailey, one of the firm of show
men. said yesterday that Jumbo had grown great
deal His hei ght is fully seven inches greater than
fl Vas year ago, aud he has gained hree-quarters
of ton In weight. At no time since his arrival
here has he been fractions; he has always shown
docile and even temper. Scott, the Keeper
from the London Geological Garden is still
with him. Jumbo has recently shown much afiec-
ton for the baby elephant, and when the latter is
taken from him he becomes restless, swaylng from
side To SIDE thro wing his trunk around and utterng
peculiar cries. Mr.. Bailey asserts that nearly all
elephants thrive better in this country than IN Eu-
rope This he attributed to the care and Kindness
bestowed upon them and the better understanding
of their habits and temperament I'VE are the
only people that ever succeeded in breeding ele-
plants SAID he; "climate has nothing to with it;
care kindness, attention and close study are the
only means by which we manage all animals"
Cakes pies, candies and other articles are still
frequently received by Mr.. Barnum for Jumbo, sent
10 him from his little friends in England where his
memory is yet green. JumbOs height now is thlr-
teen feet four inches. A number of animals have
been born during the winter in the winter quarters,
among them kangaroos, lions, tigers eOpards, etc,
ami many have been received from Europe, making
the additions to the menageries very large. The
show will open at the Madison Square Garden on

JayeOUID,s RETIREMENT

JAY GOULD is to retire, as We are in
formed by telegraph. After boyhOod
aud manhood Of incessant labor he is
at last going to take long holiday and
see how little play wOnld go. His
fortune is estimated in round numbers
at 800, OOO, 900, nearly all invested in
securities, and his son George is now
to conduct the forces which wealth like
this enables a leader to command. Be-
fore retiring Mr.. Gould did a clever
financial and legal stroke. As all are
aware, the Western Union Telegraph
Company was enjOined from paying
quarterly dividend on over fifteen mill
ions of its stock, the legality of the is.
suance of which was at litigation. As
it-was impossible TO order "a which
fifteen millions of the stock the divi-
dend was not to be paid, the whole
bulk of it was placed under the ban.
Did the company pass its dividend, al
lowing the value af their stock to de-
preciate? Not much. Mr.. GOULD was
not enjoined by court from paying out
what money he liked to. He paid
the entire dividend, and now the
smart people who got the injunction
have awakened to the fact that the
magic tailsman which they thought
they had wasted TO dust in the pres
ence of this wizard of Wall street.
GEORGE GOULD is not like his father.
He is what is called bright and clever
in rich young men but even a great
many Of his associates say that he does
not know enough to go in doors when it
rains. He is ambitious, who would not
be ambitious in the presence of such a
man as his father, but he lacks the
mental power, the quick decision, the
combination of shrewdness of the
Tombs shyster, and the ability to grasp
large questions which characterize the
statesman and the general. He may be
perfectly safe as long as he remains in
the leading strings of his former
partners, but the name of GOULD will
cease to sway the fortunes of Wall
street, except at the times when it can
crush by the mere bulk of the money
behind it.

THE Western papers are comment
ing with considerable vigor on the fact
that Gen. LOGAN has started in to use
the Grand Army of the Republic to adj
vance his Presidential aspirations. It
is an open secret that LoGAN's three
days speech on FITz JOHN PORTER
was intended as a boom for the NOM
ination. His friends are asking the
State eneampments of the G. A. r. to
indorse the speech. Most of the de-
partments have refused, ruling the res
olutions out, but in Iowa last week the
LOGAN boomers succeeded in getting
them through. The Milwaukee Teic-
graph, edited by two veterans, Colonies
CALKIs and WATRUs, makes these
sensible observations on the attempted
G., A. r. LOGAN boom.
All past experience shows that no
secret, benevolent aud fraternal society
cah live and prosper if it allows party
politics to enter into its proceedings. IL
will be easy to number the prosperous
DAYS of the Grand Army ofthe Repub-
lie if il allows itself to be dragged back
into a machine TO aid any party, man
or set of men in their political aims. In
this connection Ii is not out Of place to
saw that Gen. Logan, after the grand
order had been carried to the verge of
the grave through the introduction Of
politics, allowed his membership to
tspse, and that he was restored at the
last meeting Of the National Eneamp-
ment; and this, too, in face of the fact
that he bad held the Office Of Com
msndeF-in- chief.

TIE Ohio Democratic State Central
Committee met yesterday to arrange
for holding the next State convention.
Our Democratic friends over the river
are in good spirits and will organize a
vigorous campaign. The Republicans
are on the run, and they ought to keep
them there.
The Republican nomination for Gov
ernOr goes begging. The shrewd poll
ticians make haste 10 decline. In the
mean time it is being whitfield down to
the size of Keller. Keifer,s strong points
as a candidate for Governor are well
summed up by an exchange as follows:
"He is as cunning and egOtistIc as
sherman, as coarse rs Butterworth,
can play the sanctimoniouS dodge as we'll
as Hayes, has as biga voice as Noyes,
and would counteract the hypOcritical
temperance nonsense of Foster. He is
good enough for the best of Ohio Re-
publican politicians, and bad enough
for the worst. Why not Keifer?"

THE American Iron and Steel Asso-
ciatien, in their annual report, give a
very candid statement ofthe causes
which have produced reaction in
their industries. They may be snm-
med upin the statement that the ex-
traOrdinary activity which set in in
1879 led to an increase in the capacity
for production greater than the increase
in the demand for the goods produced,
to which must be added an unfavora-
BILE harvest in 1851, leSSening the pow
er Of railway extension and the induce
ment to it. Tho association regret the
reduction in the tariff viii CHI took
place at the late session of Congress,
but they look with hope to the future,
to the increased consumption which
must fellow low prices, and the more
moderate production which the pres
ent reaction will cause.

MINIMUM COMPETITION IN CONVICT
LARAR

There is beginning to be some uni
formity in the States in the plan adopt
ed for dealing with the problem OF con-
Wet labor.
There is no plan that entirely allays
opposition, but the one in point, aims
to reduce competition to the minimum
and thus reduce opposition to the mimi
mum. 1t is probably the nearest APP
proach to a settlement of the vexed
question that is now practicable.
The plan is explained in bill which
seems to be acceptable to the Legisla-
ture of Massachusetts, copied from the
New jersey statutes, and also adopted
by the present Legislature ofNew York.
The Massachusetts bill provides that
the number of inmates OF any prison,
or other penal or refOrmary institution
within the Commonwealth, employed
in any manufacture, or in any depart
ment or branch thereof, shall not ex'
coed one-twentieth of the number OF
persons employed in such manufacture,
or in such department or branch there
Of in the State, according to the last
preceding census.
This plan would, of course, work a
very radical change in any prison to
which it might be applied. For in
stance, in Massachusetts, the number of
cap and hat makers il the State, by the
last census, is put down as l,O4O. On
this basis not more than 81 persons
could be employed in that industry in
any prison, instead of from 200 to 300,
who are now engaged it. The census
gives the number of "chair cane
seaters" as PSI, in that STATE, and one
twentieth of this mum Der would be IA,
which would be the maximum number
who could be lawfully employed in any
one prison. The number OF harness
makers reported by the census is l,5lO,
and the number which might be en-
ployed in any prison under the bill
would be rs.
These are examples of the revolution
that would be made by the operations
of the bill in that State, aid it is safe to
say it would not be less radical if APP
piled to any other State. 1t would GER
tainly not be less so ifappliedto West
Virginia.
The plan has some cOmmendable fea-
lures. Its main purpose is to prevent
injuring any business or industry by
concentrating the work Of large num-
Der of conyicts upon one branch Of
mandatory, as is done in many pris-
Ons, and we are not certain but that it
is done to large degree in our own
State prison.
New Jersey limits the number Of
convicts to be employed in any one
industry to 100. In New York very
stringent restrictions have recently
been made in the same direction. The
adoption of the plan, of course, would
occasion heavy loss to the States which
put in force, but it is the nearest ap-
proaeh that has yet been made to pre-
vent serious injury to free labor by the
prison competition.

IT is great mistake to imagine the
times are out Of joint, says an exchange,
merely because humanity has been
slow to realize that winter habits of life
do not agree with the requirements of
spring" THIS fact contains more vir-
tue than dose of salts to those who will
act on it. "Spring fever" is q malady
that yields readily to light diet and
regular habits, with frequent baths and
plenty of vegetable food.
