Hiaius'S Men Talking Nonsense.

y correspondent of the Baltimore
Norni"g HtrH}d, writing from Washing
ton, says the Blaine people in that city
now refer to President Arthur as the
"Wall street candidate" and the idea is
being assiduously cultivated that is he is
nominated he will be the nominee of the
of the moneyed kings of the country
Representative l}ayEe, who seems to most
of;iciate as buyle-blower for Blaine in
Washington. is particularly exuberant
with The belief that the meeting in New
York has settled Arthur's chances The
people do not want a man, said he.
who is running as the candidate of the
corporations and the monopolists." This
is the kind Of talk that nearly all the
Blaine men are indulsing in. 1t may be
remarked, however, that the friends of
President Arthur are more serene than
ever.

ligcd to resign the high position of Cen

THE law laid down in the Guitean case

THE law laid down in the Guiteau case
has been affirmed in a recent case in
Philadelphia. A crank named McCauley
called upon Mr.. James ii. 1Ievern,
well-known lawyer, and was told to take
a seat in the outer office until Mr.. Hev-
erin was ready to see him. McCauley
regarded this as All insult and went off
very angry. Later i'll the day he met
Mr.. IIeverin on the street, and calling
him aside complained of the manner in
which he had been treated in the morn
ing. He struck the lawyer over the head
with his cane, and drawing black jack
from his breast pocket dealt him blow
that might have been fatal. When put
sn trial for the assault the plea of in
sanity was interposed, and great deal
of evidence was submitted showing that
he had delusions which could only pro
coed from an unbalanced mind. 1t hap
pcned, however, that the very witnesses
who testified to his queer actions were in
the habit of dealing with him as if he
were perfectly sane. Even the physi-
clans who were summoned to prove that
he was lunatic took fees from him and
treated him as they would any other pa
tient. In charging the jury Judge Ell
cock said that the law presumed every
man to be sane until the contrary was
shown; that the burden of proof was on
the prisoner to make such a case as would
satisfy the jury of his il sanity, and that
partial insanity was no defense unless it
related to one particular subject, under
the influence Of which the offense was
committed. McCauley was convioted
and senterced to the penitentiary for
five years. His counsel made motion
for new trial. and in overruling this
motion Judge Elcock went into an elabo-
rate review of the law relating to in
sanity. The speeches of criminal law
yers and the verdicts of weak julies have
led many well meaning people astray in
this matter. and Judge Elcuck has per-
formed an important service in disabus-
ing the public mind of wrong impress
sions.

All Kinds of Gossip and Rumor Concerning
The Coming Struggle.
y correspondent, writing from Chi
clgo to the Baltimore MORNING HER
AID, says outward and visible signs OF
the approach of the Republican Ma
tional Convention became apparent to-
day. The trains from East and West
brought in Struggling delegates with
scores Of politicians the hotels began
TO present an animated appearance
and the headquarters Of the National
and Local Committees were beseiged
by callers. Che politicians came for
work rather than play and before, they
had been an hour on the ground they
were button-holing the advance guard
of the delegates in the interest of their
special f;tvorites.
It's now admitted that the first
blood drawn in the convention will be
over the contesting delegation from
Virginia. Peasants, the colored adj
vance guard of the Malone faction. is
industriously button-holing delegates
and soliciting their support. He said
tonight that his delegation would have
no trouble in securing the floor and de-
clared that it was solid for Arthur.
The talk of 4 business mems Arthur
meeting here has been revived. and a
movement is on foot to get all the Ar
thur delegates into Central Music Hall
on Monday night. Blaine's friends
say that if this movement gets as far as
a formal "call'' they will meet it by a
counter demonstration. Senator Gull
lon, of Illinois. is talked of as the Ar
thur candidate for permanent chairman.
1t is stated late that the Ma
tional Committee will recommend in
the interest of harmony that both the
Virginia delegation with half a vote
each.
For several days past it has been re-
ported that Arthur's lieutenants, in case
they failed to poll a strong vote, would
naugurate a boom for Gresham. TO
night it is stated that the Blaine men
will counteract this by pushing Ben
Harrison, and the morning papers will
give special prominence to this state
ment.

The latest from the Fish Grant contro-
versy is that President Fish now says
that he did not mean to charge that Cen

simply intends to say that the letters re.

ONE thing is needed to restore public con-
fidence; that is punishment of the guilty.
That some persons have been guilty, every.
body knows. 1t is not for the press to pro
nounce judgment; but public opinion will
surely not be satisfied, nor will confidence in
the integrity Of corporate management be
revived as it should be, unless there is mani
tested enough of public justice to insure the
punishment Of criminals. 1t will not do
any longer to have it said, with color OF
truth, that man who steals by the mil
lions in Wall street, can escape with i'm
punity. -New York Tribune.
Never were truer words uttered. Moth

FERDINAND WARDS attempt to boz
ster up his own case by dragging the
name of Gen. Grant through the mire is
one Of the most despicable moves of that
thoroughly CONSCIOUSNESS scoundrel. The
American people will not allow Wards
words to sink very deep into their men,
cries. Bigger and better men than he
have tried the experiment of building
themselves up by traducing Gen. Grant,
and they have been forgotten. Ward
will stand out conspicuously for many
years as a phenomenal rascal, but the
hero of Appomattox will always have a
warm place in the nations heart.

If anybody had vcnturcA the predc-
ton in the summer If 1880 that Vice
President Arthur, after serving nearly
four years as President, would be prom
Using candidate for the Presidential sue
cession in 1884, the author of the pre-
diction would himself have been le-
gardtd as a promising candidate for a
straight jacket. Remembering this fact
and contemplating the esteem in which
Mr.. Arthur is he!d by his party aud TIE

without argument or question, that dur

persons. lie has become the self-re-

has given the country an administration
which, willie not aggresSlvcly reiorma-
tory, has been safe. clean, progressive
and honestly responsive to the reason

the nation. Mr.. Arthur has not mas
queraded as u great statesman; he has
not been ambitious of innovations: lie is
perhaps the opposite of brilliant and sen
Sational: but SO far as the administration
of our National Government has an intlu-
ence upon the welfare of the people and
the steady and prosperous movement of
material affairs, his discharge Of the
duties of his high office has been above

THE chance of the Chicago hotel Ike p.

THE chance of the Chicago hotel Ike p
ers making a profit out of the National
Conventions seems to be brighter than
that of any single candidate for the
Presidential nomination. The facilities
for lodging guests are being temporarily
increased by partitionipg the large rooms
and parlors into tiny bedrooms, and by
turning the servants quarters and work
ing departments into places for lodging.
AS to the provision Of food for the ex-
pected crowds, there seems to be some
doubt about the adequacy Of the prepa-
ration
