Zone is that they are going out of use,
and the other that they explode. In
stead OF their going out of use, just the
contrary is the fact, for more are used
now than ever before. Why is this;
Because of improved cutting machinery
that requires the aid of grindstones to
keep it in perfect condition. As for
their exploding, as you read about
every once in while, that's all non.
sense. They do not explode. But
they do break. scattering themselves
about some and hurting people. But
this is due to their being mounted

Where do most of the grindstones

Some come from England and some

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. 20.-Ex-Mayor
John Bowman of East st. Louis was mur-
dered about o'clock this evening, within
fifty yards of his residence, near the edge
of town. He had been to Belleville, and
was walking home with satchel in one
hand, and just before the shooting man
was seen walking with him. A shot was
heard by neighborS, and minute or two
afterward Mr.. Bowman was found lying on

his neck and the skin powder-burnt, show
ing that the shot was fired at close range.
The murderer had disappeared, and Mr..
Bowman, who was dying, could give no in
formation. He lived only few minutes.
The news of the murder spread like Wild

every one of them. He said: l.,

evening, when authority was given to sew
enteen members to vote for John T.
Mitchell for senator, on a promise that he
would vote to confirm President Cleveland's
appointments, resolution was passed call
ing upon Cleveland for the offices. The reso-
luton recited the general political status of
the state and argued that the Democrats
could control if they had the Offices The
petition was dispatched to the president
Yesterday. Senator Mitchell. few min
utes after his election, addressed the legis-
lature and defined his attitude towards the
president in the following languages:
If I supposed for one moment that any
Democratic representative on this floor had
cast his vote for me under the impression
that it would have the effect of changing me
from Republican toa Democrat, OF course
would not feel complimented; but l have
every reason to know that, gentlemen, no
member Of the Democratic party cast his
vote for me under any such impression. 1t is
due, however, that l should state that rec
ognize the fact and am now about to pro-
claim from the house-top that which have
ever proclaimed in secret chambers. Irec-
ognize the fact that at the late national cleo
ton the Democratic party prevailed and elec-
ted Democratic president, and what have
to say is this, that shall not conceive it to
be part of my duty as senator to go to
Washington and make factions of the admin
istration now in power. The nominations of
the president of the United States, if they are
worthy men, shall receive my vote for con-
firmation, unless there is an attempt on the
part of the president to make appointments
that will impugn upon any tenure of office,
and should he do that I would oppose any
president of the United States.

M,CULLoUGH,s DEATH.
His Physician Makes a Statement ON
tese Sub5ect

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Nov. 20.-Dr.
Hugo Engel, the physician of the late John
Mccullough, makes the following state
ment:
In reply to all the various reports which
have appeared in the daily papers concerning
the case of John Mccullough, and in answer
to the many statements that have been as
cribed to me, I wish to say the following:
That never denied the existence of dementia,
paralytica or of any other form of morbid
lieson in the patients case, but that Only
insisted upon the fact that the pathological
condition of his brain was caused by form
of blood poison well known to physicians.
The result Of treatment proved this to be the
case, and the post-mortem examination
demonstration that condition of the
cerebral arteries, which I had supposed the
correctness of the diagnosis of the Blooming
dale physicians, who are too experienced ex-
perts to make the mistakes which were never
disputed. The question referred only to the
causing element and to leave in this respect
not the least reason for doubt, specimen Of
the diseased arteries will be sent to Heubnor,
in Europe, and his reply will be given to the
public in time. From the beginning prom
ised the family and friends of the actor not
to give in to any controversy, and only pub
lish the a0ove as my only and final statement,
and disclaim the authorship of all other re-
ports aScribed to me.

Illegal Expenses.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-Attorney Gen.
eral Garland. to whom Secretary Bayard
some weeks ago referred the question OF
the legality of the expenses of the court OF
Alabama claims, having signified his con-
currence in the opinions OF the solicitor OF
the state department. Mr.. Francis Wharton,
the publication of MI. Wharton's opinion is
authorized by the state department. He
holds that the court having been appointed
for specific purpose cannot be construed
to have as wide powers as general court,
but that it must be held strictly to its func-
tlons as outlined in the act creating it; that
this is especially trne in this case. because
congress saw ut to minutely limit powers;
that the act does not expressly allow 1t the
appointments of its subordinates nor neces-
sary assistance, except the stenographer,
the attorney for the United States. and
even the clerk of the court being appointed
by other authority; that IN the
face of this the appointment
of a list of assistant attorneys whose
aggregate compensation, in comparison
with the chief federal counsel, as in the
ratio of S167 to 1872, of a number OF pro-
fessional experts and of various clerks, all
under the head of incidental expenses" is
manifestly absurd. Moreover, he holds
that the appointment of counsel is an ex-
ecutive, not judicial function, and that
the employment of salaried experts is some
thing unknown in jurisprudence. That
these expenses have been allowed in the
past, he says. is not to be taken as bar
against an inquiry into them now. else
wrong might cite its own immunity as a
ground for it's own perpetuation. He main
tains the force of assistant attorneys, ex-
perts, clerks, etc., have been Illegally en-
ployed, and that all those whose salaries
can legitimately be paid out of the ''inci-
dental expenses are the servants EN-
ployed in cleaning the courtroom, criers,
tipstaves and messengers.
