A fsw weess neo II replying TO para
arupb ii she Wspatck the Philadelphia
prsss iodiepansly repudiated the charge
that Il was lighting under The bloody shirt.
Now, however, IN answering the query Of
"a Young Republican" itnct only boldly
essays to defend the fraud by which MI.
HAYES was put into the presidential chair,
but ,skes occasion 10 indulge In burst OF
outrage literature that would have done
credit TO the paImiest days Of demonstration.
II says:
nv means Of the KukIux-Klan and tissue
ballots and All forms OF intimidation and
fraud which human ingenuity could invent,
the Democrats In 1876 had gained control
Of every southern State except three, LOU
isiaps. FLORIDA, and South Carolina. TO
elect Tilden Il was necessary that the Bour-
hons should secure one or more OF these
States. Az the Republicans were In q ma
ior,ty In each OF them, II was necessary TO
preyept an honest election, and 20 thas END
ibfy applied Themselves, with all their en-
erpies and with that total absence OF con-
science which cbaracterizes Bourbon meth
DDS.
TIE Republicans. however, had the
counting OF The votes, aud they very pro-
perly threw out the votes OF those districts
In which the evidence showed there had
not been free and fair election, and made
no the returns from the remaining dis.
tricts. which gave the electoral vote OF the
States TO Hayes and Wheeler, and they
were returned accordingly. The Electoral
Commission, accepting the returns OF the
legally reconstructed returning boards OF the
States as conclusive. decided, In effect. that
Mr.. Hayes had 1855 votes, and was elected.
There never was any doubt but that the
majority Of oil the votes In those three
states, as well as In Mississippi and other
southern States, would have been cast for
the Republican ticket II rifle-clubs and It's.
sue ballots had not turned the election into
a farce. Ever since that election fraud has
triumpbed unchecked In the South, and
The Democrats will never forgive the Re.
publicans because they were prevented
from executing In that one year their annual
crime against the bsllot-box.
II this Is not waving the bloody shirt,
what Is 1t! What Is the Significance OF this
language at this particular time, and what
the slgr iicance OF attempting to Justify an
outrage that every honest man now con-
cedes Is blot upon American history
Does the Press hope by hiring the northern
heart TO pave the way to another presidential
theft? Its party leaders are desperate, and
desperate men take desperate chances.
Considered in connection with the warn
ing Of the Graphic and other northern
papers, 1t behooves our northern friends
to weigh well such utterances. The Re-
publican party is falling to pieces on all
sides. and II 1t cannot make the bloody
shirt issue servo it in some way 1t must 60
TO the wall.

TO the Editor Of the Dispatch:
Dear Sir,-Being Democrat after your
own heart, am no great admirer Of Mr..
Logan, and am even ready 10 admit that he
writes English according to no recognized
rule. The Illinois dialect doubtless answers
Its purpose in its own section. The excuse
being very much like Joe Jarvis's apology
for writing bad hand-he was writing to
friend who could read no better than he

stand-off. But the object OF this IL TO in

AfncesI
A plstform.car which had been standing
on the siding at the iron-works above Six
teenth-Strcet junction, on the Reading
railroad became loosened the other day,
ond, propelled by the wind, started down
the road, running through patent switch
on to the up track. As soon rs II
was discovered the agent &C Six
tenth sheet telegrapbed to Ninth and
Green, and they in turn telephoned
the signsl-station below Broad street
that the car was coming down, and to throw
It OF or turn II on 10 the down track. IL
was too late, the car having already gone
by at great speed. The people NJ Ninth
and Green were considerably excited,
knowing that the 4-clock express train for
Germantown was on its way up. The en-
CINE OF the express was standing al CO.
lumbia-Avenue station, about 10 start, when
the engineer, Michael c. Loughry, who
lives at No. 200 Armat street, Germantown,
looking ahead, saw the freight car coming
down at rapid rate.
Dir. Loughry grasped the situation ut 3
glance, and jumping from his engine, ran
as fast as possible TO the switch below
Montgomery avenue and turned the ear on
10 the down-track just In time to avoid
what most certainly would have been bad
wreck and caused loss Of several thou
sand dollars TO the company. Mr.. Loughry
quietly boarded his engine and reached
Germantown only two minutes behind
time, none Of the passengers being aware
Of how narrowly they had escaped COLI
sion.
Superintendent Sweigart rewarded Mr..
Loughry by giving him vacation, remark
ing at the same time that he would willingly
lengthen the time, but that the complny
could not afford to be too long without the
services OF so faithful and efficient an en-
ploye.

ago, a so year old man who had been chin
ney sweep in Weissenser applied for shelter,
claiming to be without all means of support.
His clothing was searched, as is customary,
and the result was the finding of leather
pocket-book containing $50 rubles in bills,
], 900 rubles in drafts, and IS marks of Ger
man money. The man then confessed that
he had lived in Russia, for twenty years, car
rying on his trade, and that he had saved,
aside from the money found on him, "a, 600
rubles. which were deposited with bank in
Riga. Notwithstanding this really large for
tune, the old fellow had tramped for months
all over Germany pretending to be poor and
existing on aims.
Not very long ago there died in Frankfort
on-the- Main, single woman, 62 years old,
of starvation and general debility, leaving to
her heirs the princcly fortune of 100000
marks. Dorothea Schroeder was her name,
and she had lived in apparent poverty in the
Maisengasse. She had inherited small
competency from her parents, but claimed
that it had been swallowed up in some bank
ruptcy, and henceforth she not only claimed
support from the authorities but she also ap-
peared on the streets as a common beg
gar. She hardly allowed herself crusts of
dry bread as nourishment. Only one per-
son knew of her riches. He was employed
in bank and speculated with the savings
