ROR,S GRTEKlNCE-

The remarkable quiet of Bob Ingersoll so
far in the campaign is commented on to the
extent of giving n reason for (which is, the
social slight put upon him and his family by
the Blaine family in Washington. 1t may
lead to Bob's conversion just for social rea-
sons, and then after being admitted with his
family to the best ''sassiety'' in the
national capital, Bob and his family may be
considered good enough to dead-head it
through on the other side.
Meanwhile, if misery loves company, Bob
can console himself with an illustrious prece-
dent, and co-sufferer in the same way
Benjamin Disraeli, Lord Beaconsfield, who
was loved and admired by Queen Victoria,
and detested by her liege Prince Albert,
who, had he survived, would have prevented
Ben from being Prime Minister.
Contrary to all precedent, Mr.. and Mrs.
Disraeli were never invited to the state balls
and concerts. Beaconsfeld's "Remains''
will, if published in full, contain the acrimo-
NOUS correspondence relating TO the sys-
tematic snubbing of a man, who lived to re-
ceive Quentin press in his own home,
and to dictate his terms, social or otherwise,
to the best of them. Courage, Bob, there's
no divining what revenges time, and its
tattoo may work for your solace.

GEMS FROM THE "IRIsH WORLD"

Before the Republican campaign commit

cast over the country, at the rate of 100, 600
(price, at campaign rates, $4,000 per week,
Mr.. Patrick Ford, the editor Of that paper,
published in the Irish World, at different in
teryals. the following as his opinion OF Mr..
Blaine, the man he is now asking his readers
to vote for:
What passes for a statesman, in these de-
generate days of the spoils system, is a cheap,
vile, political caucus rogue, who is ready TO
prostitute the gravest concerns Of life and
liberty TO the meanest instincts OF the robber
class; and such is Blaine-LriSh World Sept
8, 1881.
On October 10, we celebrated the centen-
NAL of Yorktown. The celebration, as our
readers know, was married by the presidents
order, or to speak more accurately, Blaine's
order, commanding the British flag TO be sa-
luted BY the forces Of the United States army
and navy stationed at Yorktown. On Octo-
Der %, week after, the cable brought US
the news that Confederate bonds had gone
up q, and that movement was on foot TO
have the United States government redeem

CoNnR-irEIlrroNS

1t is rare that the GLOBE feels that it can
extend congratulations TO those who are so
unfortunate as to be subscribers TO the Pioneer
Press, but the following announcement in
that paper yesterday gives the opportunity:
The Pioneer Press has received information
from number of the subscribers for the Weekly
Pioneer Pres In the Third congressional district
that the number of that paper dated September
4, received by them from their local postofice,
contained therein supplement OF the st. Paul
GLOBE, containing Donnellys fifteen column
speech ut Glencoe and lot OF newspaper pufTs
Of Donnelly. The publishers OF the Pioneer
Press have taken steps to investigate this mat
ter, and to discover by what ingenious process
Mr.. Donnelly managed TO procure the insertion
Of his GLOBE supplement in the Weekly Pioneer
Press That il could not have been accomplished
except by some kind OF trckery or fraud. or
bribery OF postofice officials is evident upon the
face of the transaction. We propose to ascer-
tain who Is responsible for the execution of this
atrocious piece of knavery.
If the Il. p. viii circulate the GLOBE reg
ularly with their paper it will undoubtedly
give satisfaction to their readers, and as we
have the stereotype plates preserved of Mr..
Donnelly's great speech, the supply can be
made unlimited, so that they can be folded
in" every week from now until election.
But we are glad the p. p. proposes to in
vestgate. OF course there is only one way
that such an occurrence could take place,
and that is by the supplement being sent
out directly from the r. p. Office. It's in
dignation is so well feigned that It is well
calculated to deceive, but the ''posted' will
understand that this outburst is simply TO
conceal the fact that the p. p. de-
sires to defeat Strait, and is circulating the
GLOBE in this manner, to accomplish that
end without being publicly responsible for
the result. The postmasters in the Third
district are all appoiutees of Major Strait and
there is not one who could be induced to be-
tray the man who made them, in such a
manner If the p. p. chooses to send out
its Third district edition with GLOBE supple
ments 'folded therein" the local post
masters should not be abused.
The GLOBE not only extends congratula-
tons to the p. p. subscribers, but repudiates
the aspersion upon the postmastcrs, who
would have no right to remove the GLOBE
supplements from copies of the Pioneer Press
which reach them by due course of mail
. Let no guilty man escape" even if the
p. Z. is caught In the act.

THROWS UP THE SPONGE.
John L. Sullivan Declares That He
Will Fight No More Battles.
Consequently The Great Question Among The
Fraternity is, Who is Champion Now.
special Telegram to the Globe. |

ST. LOUIS, Sept. IA dispatch from New
York to the POSt-Dispdtch, says The arrival
OF John l.. Sullivan in the city caused much ex-
element yesterday. The small fry sluggers re-
turned to the innermost recesses of their haunts
ana wondered if the great am of thee prize
ring was bent on knocking out every man he
met. Sullivan was in chearful mood, and re-
ported about town that that he had come here
for the purpose of matching Pete Mccoy against
Dominick McCafferey. This is news that will
make Mr.. McCafferey happy. He can now be
sad only, on account that Sullivan did not come
here to match himself against the young
Pittsburg hero. The champion, who, by
his own admissions now rein-
pushes the title said ne was
prepared to match Mccoy against McCaffery, ac-
cording to the prize ring rules for from 500 TO
$4,000 side. He allows himself to retire grace
fully from the position of champion by backing
Mccoy for the honors, and seeks to excuse his
backdown by saying: 81 have given up fighting
according to London prize ring rules, and have
done meeting chumps." 1t is mat
ter of record that the only
man Mr.. Sullivan met according
20 ring rules was Paddy Ryan, when they fought
at Mississippi City. Ii was owing to his great
victory on that occasion that Mr.. sullivan gained
50 MUCH nOlOrleGE, anu dlIeFWarus mdue SO InuCu
money. 1t also from those gains that he
fell into the habits that have reduced him phys
ically until he is forced to admit that he
cannot stand training for bruising battle with
bare knuckles against young and vigorous
opponent. Now that Mr. Sullivan has
declared his intention to forfeit the
championship, it will become mooted question
to whom the title shall revert. Paddy Ryan
having been beaten has no claim, but John Flood
and Mervine Thompson challenged Sullivan for
the championship about year ago. It is prob
able, however, that the former has more valid
claim to the title than the latter, he deposited
money to make good his claim, which, however,
was arrogantly ignored by the Boston strong
boy. Now, if Flood should force
his claim and post his money, Sullivan
will be forced to forfeit direct
to him. But McCafferey has choice. He can
ignore ''buff - by Sullivan for Mccoy, and tell
the champion 81 do want to fight. Make the
match or forfeit In reality Sullivan has al
ready forfeited to him, as he failed to respond to
McCaTerey's challenge or cover the money left
at the Boston Herald Office the day after the
Mccoy squabble. Mr.. Sullivan
also says that Mccoy had the best of the late
glove contest, but in this he is fatty contradicted
by the Boston news and sporting papers.

Trouble Among the Iron Workers.

WHEELING, W. Va, Sept 14.-Belmont
Lodge Of the Amalgamated Association and
Steel Workers, composed of boilers and help
ers of the Belmont mill of this city, last night
resolved to sever their connection with the as
ISOLATION and solicit boiler makers all over the
country to aid them in the disintegrating of
the amalgamation. This action was taken
because of the refusal of the nailers here,
who cut steel nails, to demand 20 per cent.

June by the manufacturers provides may be
done. The step is an important one, but ex
President Jarrett and several officers of the
association say the lodges of the country will
not cooperate with Belmont lodge.

his appearance almost threw the woman
into Mysteries. She charged him with inf
deity, saying that early in the evening she
had entered the house and found her husband
and the Ian dlady unduly familiar, and this
so enraged her that she pitched onto him.
While relating her story she burst into tears,
and it was difficult to keep her away from
him.
The officer stated that when called she was
tearing up the furniture and raising the
dickens generally. On hearing her story,
Sergeant Walsh thought that she had had
sufficient provocation to make her angry,
and he booked the man for disorderly con-
duct also, both man and wife being locked
up. When he was placed under arrest she
seemed satisfied.
