The Benefit Concert More q Success
physically Than FiYaucfmg5v.

nc HSeneEAt Concert More u Success
physically Than Financially.
The concert given last evening at the
Market hall as testimonial to Mr.. Frank
Wood was rather weak as compliment. if
attendance be considered, but musically it
was decided success. 1t appeared as if
the III, 600 people of the city had entirely
forgotten that there was such philanthro-
pist as Mr.. Wood in st. Paul, and the few
hundreds were there and eniOyed one of the
best concerts ever given in St. Paul. Moral:
Don't do anything for nothing. and if your
heart is big and generous cut it out and cast
1T from you and stick stone in its place.
But as to the concert itself it was one Of
the smoothest and most delightful ever
heard in st. Paul, if it did take place in
the dirtiest hail in the city. II
would be foolish to undertake to find any
thing to criticise in the work of Seibert's
orchestra, which played ''Con Armore"
and III manner to defy comparison with
the best combinations which have or will
come here. Miss Elite Butler. the prima
donna who represented the Chicago friends
OF Mir. Wood. is most bewitching little
person and she has a truly delightful voice,
added to method that produces a result
so delightful as to challenge the admiration
of the most eXacting critics. Her numbers
were well chosen and displayed her school
and charms of method to perfection. Miss
Alice Shave, in the motet Hear NV
Prayer" fully sustained her admirable
reputation, and the Glee club. under
Signor Jannotta, did splendid work.
or the fine work of Mr.. VIII and
Mr.. Wood it is unnecessary to speak.

Persistent office-seekers.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-The ofice-seek-
ers are getting ready for new raid on the
offices. There is an impression among
them that the return of the president and
cabinet officers after election will be a sig
nal for renewed activity in the distribution
of offices. The president and his advisers
evidently concluded q short time before
election that cessation of hostilitles was
advisable. A gentleman who had been Sc
lected by one of the cabinet officers for an
important position came here few days
before election and asked that the appoint
ment be fixed up at once. No" said the
secretary, with very vigorous shake OF
the head. Nothing more is to be done
until after election and nothing more was
DONE The refusal of the president to
listen to the appeals Of office-seekers
does not mean that there is to be any cessa-
ton in appointments: on the contrary, it
will give him more time to consider cases
reported to him by heads of departments
and it is expected that number OF appoint
ments made between this and the assem-
bling of congress will be quite large.

STURG1s. Mich, Nov. ga discovery
was made on Grand Rapids & Indiana
railroad train yesterday, near here, which
is believed to be the precursor of another
murder mystery. Shortly before the train
reached this city the baggageman detected
a sickening odor issuing from trunk in the
forward part of the car. With the assist
ance of train men he at once forced open
the trunk and found within it the body of a
man III an advanced state of decomposition.
No efforts were made to ascertain the prob
able cause Of the mans death, but the trunk
was closed and placed with it's CHASTITY con-
tents on the front platform of the Car, to be
taken through to Grand Rapids, its original
destination. The baggageman says that
the trunk was transferred to his car at Fort
Wayne from the Wabash train.

NEW IRISH CONsTITuTIoN.

SO confident is Mr. PARNELL of securing
Irish legislative independence that he is now
at work preparing new constitution for
Ireland. According to the statements of
the Dublin correspondent of the New York
Herald the lines on which Mr.. PARNELL's
scheme is drawn are modification of graf
TAN's parliament, so far as to meet the
democratic progress of the age. In the
constitution which he is preparing the Irish
leader proposes to abolish the house OF
lords, and that the new parliament shall
have a single chamber, having power over
ali purely Irish AFFAIRS with some kind OF
veto reserved for Ireland. The lord lieuten-
ancy is to be abolished. The imperial mat
tiers, such as the army, navy and national
defenses are to be left in charge OF the En-
glish house of commons, but the English
parliament is to have no power to make or
alter the laws of Ireland. What the Par
nellites are seeking to accomplish and most
likely to secure at this time was senten-
tiously expressed by an Irish member, in a
recent speech, when he said:
When we talk of legislative independence,
what we want is to have the power in our
own country 10 make the laws Wnlcn aHecU
the Irish people alone. We do not ask Tor
that power as an Independent nation. We
do not want an army or navy, nor do we wish
to exercise the power outside of our own
country. What we want is to rule ireland
as Canada and Australia rule themselves, re-
naming side by side with the empire.
This definition of home rule has been ac-
cepted and approved by Archbishop WALSH
in his reply to the Earl of Meath. Home
rule may be regarded as conceded prin-
ciple.

THE SUNSET CANCER.
Some Suggestions by the Utah Conn
mission.

1t was a late hour last night when a
GLOBE reporter pulled the door-bell at the
ex-Gov Ramsey residence, but it was
promptly responded to by the genial ex-
governor, who confessed that he had an in
tuition that reporter had hold of tbs
knob.
II don't know he said, 'swhat can tell
you that hash already been published in our
report regarding the Mormons, but perhaps
the recommendations we made TO congress
that it select one of these remedies, may be
of some interest. Our first suggestion was
the old Gentle idea of the legislative COM
mission which takes the law-making power
entirely out of the hands of the Mormons.
The second, that all the civil offices appoint
able by the president or governor be given to
Gentiles, which would virtually take all pOlit-
ical power and influence out of the hands of
the Morlnons ard the third, was the adoption
of the Idaho system, which excludes all men
from election or appointment to Office who
belong to any society that ap-
proyes of Mormon doctrines. The law
as now established is working
but not so rapidly as the people desire. The
Mormons are determined people and look
upon their punishment as persecution sent
uDon them by God, who is trying the faith of
his chosen people now as he did the Israelites
in the past. This is all that can say that has
not already been published in our report
At this point the ex-governor branched
off on other Subjects and when the re-
porter left cordially invited him to wake
him up again.

Skirmishing With Indians.

BUsTAMENTI, Mex, Nov. 3.-The In
dams retreated to the mountain canons
Sunday, few miles distant, and made all
arrangements for an attack on the town
last night. Col. Cisneros, with his COM
mand of state troops. arrived at noon. and
at once set out to attack the Indians. They
did not give him battle, but fled in all drec
tions. He succeeded in capturing four of
the Indians. One captive admitted that
they caught a white man early Sunday
worning and hung him up on a tree three
times before he gave the information they
wanted as to the number of whites
in the town. 1t is believed that
the presence of state troops
will prevent further trouble for the pres
ent. The town offices are in the hands of
the whites. The Indians fearing ballot
box stuffing during the coming elections,
determined to take the Offices by force of
arms. Early Friday morning they cap
tured the court house and Jail. The
whites rallied under the lead OF Col.
Santes and took shelter in the church across
the street from the court house, and at once
opened fire on the court house and soon
drove the Indians out, as they could not be
induced to fire on the church owing to their
super stitions. While chasing the Indians
out Of town one of the whites was killed.
As his remains were being carried
from the church for burial
Saturday morning, the Indians at
tackled the procession. The whites drove
them out Of town, after killing four and
woundng fourteen. The whites lost two
killed and seven wounded. The chief of
police is among the wounded. Bustamenti,
a town of 3, 1000 inhabitants, is located five
miles west of the Mexican National railway
and also half way between Monterey, Mex,
and Laredo. Tex.

CANADIAN MIS-.

Between RIEL and the smallpox the Can
adams are kept in hot water. Sir JOHN
MACDONALD is probably the most roundEy
abused man to-day On the A merican CONT
nent. His enemies hold him responsible for
the smallpox epidemic, and all the world
knows that ne made terrible blunder when
he prosecuted REL for treason. If REL is
executed the Dominion government will be
the greatest sufferer. II he is reprieved the
government will stand abased in the eyes of
all the world. 1t is rather a complicated
condition of affairs they have up there at
best. The antagonisms of race and creed
make it an absolute impossibility for
the Canadians to agree on anything.
But the unfortunate part OF it for the
governor general is that he is de-
nounced as fiercely by his own side as by
the opposition. His party friends say that
if MACDONALD had tried RIEL for murder
or any one of a half dozen crimes he might
be charged with, there would probably be
no special sympathy with the fellow They
say that in these modern days str ong gov
ernments do not punish treason with death
The kind of treason REL was convicted of
is too closely allied to revolution not to ex-
cite sympathy. The individual who leads
revolt against oppressive power is always
invested with a halo of herOism, and, if
REL is executed, he will live in history as
a martyr to political freedom. Although
only poor half-breed, his memory will be
honored because he dared to de-
fend his people against the rufian
spectators who were cheating them out of
their lands. Now that the Dominion gov
eminent realizes the awkward condition
into which it has forced itself it is seeking
for loophole for escape. The governments
predicament and the possible outcome of
the RIEL matter are forcbly stated by the
Hon. PETER MITCHELL in a recent inter-
view. He says:
1t would be accusing the government of
the grossest ignorance to assume that they
did not expect the death sentence to be chal-
lenged when the moment came for enforcing
it in d case of treason. No one need doubt
that the government expected just such
moral resistance to an eX ecution for treason
as has now developed. They knew not only
that they would be charged with doing an I'M
precedented thing-unprecedented in the his
tory of Europe in the last fifty years-in hang
ing REL for treason. but they must have
be when the last moment came. 1t is true

certain government organs say RIEL must
hang, but they do not meet the statement
that the hanging of REL would be an eXcep-
ton to the treatment of treason offenders
throughout the empire. They do not argue the
point. They do not attempt to justify this
exceptional treatment. They do not point to
any precedent. They shirk the question alto
gether. Why is this? Is it not an evidence
OF weakness in the governments case? is 1T
not admitting that no answer can be made?
l do not wish to make any improper ref1ec-
lions upon the governments course during
the RIEL trial. The man was guilty of crimes
for which he should have been executed long
ago. He had a fair trial on the charge of
treason. He was assisted by able counsel.
But it does seem as if the blunder made in
trying him for treason was made in the nope
OF saving his life. He was really as guilty of
murder as those on his side who actually took
human life, and had he been tried for muir
der his life would, no doubt, have been for
feited. When the government elected to try
him for an offense which has not be punished
in the imperial dominons for the last half
century, they must, of course, have been
aware of the fact that they were saving him
from death, and to say that they have aided
his escape ignorantly is to say that they pos
sessed very little intelligence indeed.
Having deliberately placed themselves
in this position they have now to
face the issue. That issue is, will the gov
GrllueilJ Oh o&oCulo tuo uctttu pcii-
atty for treason when this dread penalty has
been practically abolished throughout the
empire for the last fifty years? The whole
question is summed up in these few words:
The government are face to face with this
question to-day, with the VIII ole world for
spectators. They have not been driven into
this corner. They chose the path which led
to it after due elaboration. They must have
had their reasons for their course. What
these are we may never know. But there
they stand and the country awaits their de-
ciSon. There can be but one decision.
However guilty of crimes that Cry to
heaven for vengeance, but for which he was
not tried REL will not hang for the crime of
treason.

Stead Not Guilty.

LONDON, Nov. 3.-Mr. Stead, editor of
the Pail Mall Gazette, continued his testi-
mony on the opening of the court to-day.
He declined giving the names of the per-
sons alleged to be guilty of the infamy
charged in the Gazette'S statement on the
ground that he had promised his inform
ants to observe secrecy in that respect. He
stated that he had gained his information
by drinking champagne and spending his
money freely in brothels. He then offered
to call the Lily" as witness, but the
judge declined the offer. His honor like
wise declined the evidence of the Arch
bishop of Canterbury. Mr.. Howard Vim
cent, the well-knoWn newspaper CORE
spondent who recognized the detective sys-
TEN of the metropolitan police with desig-
nation of director of criminal Investigations,
and Lord Dalhousie testified to the magni-
tude of the Infamous traffic in Young girls
on the continent. Mr.. Stead admitted that
he might have been muddled somewhat as
to the statements of Mrs. Jarrett. The at
torney general twitted Mr.. Stead over his
alleged simplicity, and said that Eliza had
been taken a distance of 800 miles at night
by man, who was her only companion.
Mr.. Stead said that he entrusted the de-
tails of the affair to Mr.. Bramwell Booth.
The defense closed their side of the case
this afternoon. Justice Lopes directed the
jury to return verdict Of not guilty.
