DEATH OF A FAMOUS CLOwN.-A dis
patch was received yesterday from Dayton,
Ohio, announcing tho death of Julien Mar
tinetti one of the most famous pantommisls
and clowns on the stage. He was a men,
her OF the Sells Brothers circus troupe, and
while amusing the audience Saturday night
at Dayton with his acrobatic feats and clev-
CIR and funny sayings, suddenly fell sense
less in the ring. He had just delighted his
hearers with an old joke about the much
abused mother-in-law, and so perfect was
his mimetic art that be lay apparently dead
on the saudust before the people had relax
ed from their merrimenJ or thought other
wise than that the chalke ed and painted face
was living stimulation and not one from
which the spark of life had almost depart
ed. But when he did not rise after some
moments, the attendants approached him
and found that he had received il severe
shock, it is supposed from over exer-
ton, and was just living. He was remov-
ed to his hotel, and died shortly after
wards in his grand-daughter's arms.
Mr. Martinetti was born in Fcrdaunt,
france where he married, and was sixty
three years old. He came to America in
1917, and with his family came to BalG-
more when Colonel Sim first opened Trout
Street Theatre. He travelled reguary from
season to season, and was widely known as
one of the most successful pantomimists and
clowns. AIr. Martinetti had been healthy
all his life, being remarkably successful in
performances requiring great physical
strength On the stage he has supported
four or five men on his shoulders. He al
ways played on the boards Of theatre, this
being his first season in the ring His pho
iograph represents him with q clear-cut
face, compressed lips, straight Grecian
nose, and expressive eye.

A local notice of pleasant affair, reported in

which is upiust-the reading item or the adver-

of honorable mention of name worth and work

THE COALITIONISTS.

General Malone and other prominent CO.
aition leaders held a conference in Rich
mond last night to cut out work for the
State convention of that party which meets
tomorrow. 0Iahone's people claim to be
in excellent spirits. Some few of them ex-
press confidence in the nomination of Ar
thur by the Chicago convention. 1t seems
to be conceded ut present, however, that
the convention will not instruct the dele
gates. Mr. Blaine will have some strong
friends in the convention, but an effort will
probably be made to stitle their voice if
they enIeavor to advocate the claims Of
their i:vorite. Among the delegates who
are outspoken for Blaine is Representative
Hooper, Of the Petersburg district. Malone,
as chairman Of the executive committee of
the coalition party, will call the convention
to order. The straightout republicans have
secured a building adjoining that in which
the coalition convention meets. This is to
be used for a conference room for their
friends and the coalition delegates favorable
to Mr.. Blaine 1t is predicted by some that
in case Malone attempts to stife the voice
Of the friends of that gentleman in his con-
vention they may go out in something like
a body to the rooms referred to; but this
does not seem to be very probable.

THE LAST GREAT ENGLISH SwINDLE.-
The brothers Parker, of London, were fash.
ionabe solicitors. Their business yielded
an income of eighty thousand dollars year,
and in their Office boxes were the title deeds of
many wealthy and aristocratic families. In
money affairs the brothers acted as the
agents of many of their clients. They lived
in handsome style, and spent money freely !;
but, wanting more, they tried to get by play
ing baccarat at and clubs and by specializing
in stocks at the exchange. Losing at both
these games Of chance, they paid their losses
by borrowing large sums of money on the
funds and title deeds Of their clients. They
found their sources ofsupply SO very abund-
ant that they went on using their clients
money, playing ducks and brakes with their
property. But all things come to an end.
The brothers Parker exhausted the money
coDfdingly left with them for investment,
and had hypothecated the title deeds COM
mtted to their charge. When they could
push matters no further, they suddenly dis
appeared, and the explosion followed. A
report of their assets and liabilities was
made to the creditors last Friday. The liza
bililies were found to be five and half
millions of dollars, the assets almost nothing.
Many of their clients have been reduced from
comfort to actual want.

THE BALTIMORE american, good republi-
can authority, says "the republican party
in Virginia has been set free from its un-
natural alliance with the democratic read
iusters, and is about to reorganze and bring
itself into complete harmony with the ma

chairman Of the national republican COM
mittee, says otherwise. Which is correct
will have to be decided by the national re-
publican convention.

Mr.. SAEIN, the chairman OF the national
republican committee, is an Arthur man,
and, under instructions from the White
House, has revoked his letter to Mr.. Dozen
,lorf calling for a list Of the delegates TO be
appointed by the convention Of the straight
out republicans Of Virginia; and knowing
that the uelegatea a.,--.I by that
convention will be opposed to Arthur, while
those to be chosen by the Malone conven-
ton will be for him, he takes occasion to
say that in his opinion the latter and not
the former should be admitted TO the ma
tonal convention. Fortunately for the Eir-
ginia republicans, Mr.. Sabin, though chair
man of the national republican committee,
will not control the national republican con-
vention, and fron present indications will
find that the opinion of the large majority
of that convention, regarding the delega-
ton to be admitted from Virginia, will be
directly contrary to his own.

GREAT REDUcTIoN.-One hundred men
were discharged from the Baldwin Locomo-
tive works in Philadelphia on Saturday last,
and one of the members Of the firm stated
that unless other work came in the dis
charge would continue until the present
working force of 5000 would be reduced to
about 1000. The works have been running
to their full capacity for several years past,
and have averaged $50 locomotives year.
The cause of the falling Off in orders is that
the railroads have been carrying freight
and passengers ut such low rates that they
are compelled to reduce their expenses, and
one Of the first places in which to retrench
is the motive power When the fall carry
ing trade begins there will be plenty of
work.

there is no doubt that he will meet with
vigorous opposition. 1t could hardly be
otherwise. General Malone, up to the time
when he became convinced that he was not
such a man as the democrats would advance,
was.one of the most ultra and proscrlptlve
democrats in the State. and hesltated a! the

therefore who accepted such man lor
their leader must have been ac'uated, not oy

obtain or retain office through his IN
tluence. That desire, OF course, could
not be gratiGed, for, having once joined
him, he not unnaturally supposed they must
stick, az there was no place else for them to
20, and that he could therefore treat them
a. ho pleased, and distribute the offices al
his disposal among the democrats, so as TO
strengthen himself with recruits from the
purchaseahle element in their party. But
though the republicans alluded to have
