The scandaIous story about Cleveland
has been worked for all that it is worth.
The facts, now being published, do not

The duty on a single cargo entered at
the Philadelphia custom house Tuesday
amounted to nearly 500, 600. This is a SAM
pie of the way Uncle Sam gets his taxes
out of the people. The people don't mind
paying it much, but when they remember
that for every dollar they pay the govern
eminent they pay 50 to build up and foster
monopolies they feel like asking if it is
not about time for every tub to stand on
its own bottom.

A divorce was granted to white
woman in Baltimore Tuesday on the
ground that after her marriage she dis
covered that her husband had negro blood
in his veins, and the marriage was illegal
under the laws of Maryland. The de-
PENDANT filed no plea. AS such marriages
are also illegal in the District of Column
bia, it is probable that the validity OF
Fred. Douglass last union will be attack
ed when his heirs begin to quarrel over
the snug little bit of property he has
managed to accumulate.

The Republicans in the South don't
promise their National Committee much
comfort Internationally. All their good
hopes and good promises appear to be
based on ''soap," which the National
Committee is expected to send South to
fix things. The Southern Republicans
consider almost any Congressional dis
trict doubtful if there is any chance to
get substantial aid from the committee.
1t is to be hoped the committee will send
liberal amounts down South to aid in the
cause, as trade will be enlivened some
what, and there is no danger of any seri-
GUS harm being done to the Democrats.

ENGLAND ana Eexnt.

After considerable delay and great
great deal OF discussion, the House of
Commons has voted $4,000 to fit out
an expedition for the relief of Gen. Cor
don. 1t is by no means probable that this
amount will be all that the House OF
Commons will be called on to vote before
England has adjusted her affairs in Egypt.
Gen. Gordon was sent to Khartoum, the
capital of Soudan, last January. The
condition of affairs was this: England
had not bothered herself with the policy
of Egypt in the Soudan. The population
was discontinued and Egypt was trying to
assert her authority. War began when
Ell Mahdi assumed the leadership of the
DISCONTINUED population. War had been
going on for about three years when Eng
land, all at once, changed her policy and
ordered the Egyptians to evacuate the
SOudan. She sent Gen. Gordon to Khar-
tOum to superintend the evacuation.
Gen. Gordon said that evacuation was
impossible, because the Egyptian sol
dlers and employees could not be got out
Of the country. The government replied
that evacuation had been decided upon
and the decision could not be changed.
Gen. Gordon reached KhartOum in a
month after he left England, and he is
there yet. The SOudan has not been
evacuated. Gen. Gordon has not been
! able to carry out his instructions. Ell
Mahdi has refused to permit him to take
the Egyptian soldiers and civilians
out of the Soudan. The only way he can
| get out is to fight his way out, and be
isn't strong enough to do that. The Eng
lish Government, therefore, has decided
to send him help. 1t appears also, from
what Mr.. Gladstone said when asking
money for the expedition, that England
has changed her policy about evacuating
the SOudan. If she does not evacuate the
Soudan she probably has abandoned her
expressed intention of getting out OF
Egypt. Her stay in Egypt may not meet
the approval of other European powers,
and some very interesting questions may
| arise.

127 BLUE RIBBON
Soldiers Enlisted Last Night at Fran
els Murphy's Meeting.

The cause goes marching on, and the sun that
never sets shines more brightly upon Francis
Murphy's mission than ever. Market Hall was
filed last night again, it has been every night
during the week, and deeper interest has never
before been manifested. Mr.. Murphy is an ex-
ceedingly magnetic ma n, and only in the bes
sense arouses enthusiasm, but he has the power
to do what is far better, create an interest
that is deep and permanent, and the proof of
this Is what he has wrought during his brief So
journ in st. Paul, and that he is to remain an
other week is matter for sincere congratuIas
ton.
AT the meeting last evening Mr.. Murphy
pointed out in his inimitable manner the misery
and degradation produced by rum, and the hap
piness and prosperity afforded by temperate liv-
ing. Thomas e. Murphy added stirring ad.
dress, and out of the great audience 127 came
forward and took the pledge and received its
token, the Blue Ribbon.
This afternoon mass meeting will be held at
the Grand Opera house at O'Clock when Mr..
Murphy and his son will both speak, Commos
dore Davidson has done most generously by the
Woman's Christian Temperance union, in thus
granting them for the third time the free use of
the Opera house. The meeting this afternoon
viii be grand one. Go early to get seats.

Between here and Mcmillan they found several

OHIO.

In estimating the chances of the
Democrats to carry Ohio next month
it must be remembered they enter
the canvass with several advantages
not possessed by their opponents.
They have carried the State for two
years in succession; they have the
best committee and the best State
and local organizations, and have
made the best local and congress
slonal nominations all through that
have EVER been made in the state.
The knowledge of these facts and
the prestige of their last victories
have put the Democrats in excellent
spirits and they are straining every
nerve to hold their ground. The
large a~ccessions to their ranks they
are daily receiving from the Ger
element stimulate and cheer
them while the Republicans are
correspondingly depressed. The lat
ter, however, are fighting with all
energy born of desperation. They
know if they loose the State in Octc-
Der, nothing can save it from going
Democratic in November. Ohio is a
hot battle ground at present. but the
chances for winning the victory are
in favor of the Democracy.
The National Republican commit
tee knows this and hence the aban-
donment of West Virginia and the
concentration of speakers and money
in Ohio by Elkins and Jones.

evidence of existing lodges OF the

Yesterday the body of one Hunga-
rian employed by the Buck Creek
Clearfield & Southwes'er n Railroad
Company was found near Clearfi Id
creek, Clearfield county. There were
horrible stabs and shot wounds upon
him. A party of miners drove MN
away from the coal country n 1t Is
presumed the man refused to leave
the coal country. A Hungarian
named Geo. Unglevarltich was
fatally shot at Centralia. Who fired
the shot is unknown, though a man
named Lefkawitch has been arrested
and taken to Bloomsbury Jail. In

Shomokin coal and iron police; Capt.
Williams of the Schuylkill corps and

bureau developed the facts that state
ments relative to the reorganization
of the society r true. A number OF
pioneer miners, citizens, railroad or-
orators and mine bosses have been
threatened and their names placed
upon the Mollie Mcguire death list.
While there IS no direct evidence to
connect the Nellie Maguires with
recent murders, certain circum-
stances direct suspicion toward them
and recent mysterious incendiary
turnings of colliery property in diff
ferent sections of the coal country are
attributed to the brotherhood.
