%pronouncing the sentence Of the court,
which is that you shall be confined in
states prison at hard labor for the period
of ten years"
Not a muscle of the prisoners face
changed while these scathing remarks
were being made. He bowed his head,
but did not tremble or show any evidence
of feeling. Ward was quickly surrounded
by his friends. He put on his overcoat,
took up his Derby hat and left the court
o accompanied by his keepers.
Ward was taken from the court room
to the sheriff s office, where District At
torney Martin soon followed; the latter
bad a consultation with Sheriff Davidson,
and it was decided that Ward should be
taken to Sing Sing by the irst train from
the Grand Central depot, During the
time intervening-nearly three hours
Ward movements were kept secret, but
1t was understood he was being accorded
the privilege of attending to some private
affairs. He was not returned to the
Tombs, and Ward turned over his effects,
contained in two satchels, to a friend, who
came with an order from Ward.
Ward was taken to Sing Sing prison ON
the go train to-day from the Grand Cen
trail depot. He was accompanied by
Sheriff Davidson and Warden Herman.

MORMON MATTERS.
The Utah Commissioners Make
a Report,
Showing That Polygamy Has
Had a Backset.
The Telephone People in a
Fight About Patents.
Roport Of the utnh commandment.


WAsmNaToN, Oct. Sl.-The. Utah
commission, through its chairman. Alex
ander Ramsey, has submitted to the see
Rotary of the interior, their annual report
upon the transactions and proceedings of
the commission since November, 1884,
the date of their last report. This report
states that the usual annual revision of
registration lists has been made and the
names of all polygamists stricken off. No
person living polygamously can vote or
hold any Office. Notwithstanding this,
nearly all the officers chosen at the last
election were Mormons, who, although
they do not live in actual polygamy, sub
scribe to the doctrine OF plural unions.
The commission say there has been but
few polygamous marriages during the
past year, but that this arises from the
enforcement Of the present law and not
from any change of sentiment on the part
of Mormons. Should any weakness be
shown in enforcing the law, the report
states polygamous marriages would be as
pregnant as ever. The course of certain
p%olygamists in declaring their intention of
obeying the laws in the future. has
aroused the wrath of the church. This
gives evidence of internal dissension and
is an encouraging sign The commission
urges that no step backward be taken il
legislation as it would give great aid to the
church. The report pays a high tribute
to the zeal of the present officers of the
United States court, and says that within
two years eighty three indictments have
been found for ~polygamy and % convic-
tons, while forty-three cases await trial.
The appointment of an additional Judge
is strongly recommended, as is also an
increase in the pay of courts officers; the
commission recommends that all persons
who attempt n settlement or location upon
any lands of the United States. take an
oath before the proper authorities that
they do not intend to practice ~polygamy
and that the laws with reference to the
immigration of contract labor and Chinese
be SO amended as to prohibit the immi-
grafton of any persons who claim that
their religion teaches and i~ustifes polyg-
amy. Il is claimed that this would shut
off the chief source Of supply of the Nor
mon church.

British and German Affairs.

LONDON, Oct. 3l.-The Home Rule
party has now held one-hali ofits county
conventions in Ireland. In every one OF
these Parnells dominance has not ever
been contested. The result of these con
ventions has therefore been that thirty
eight Parnollite candidates for parliament
tary seats have been nominated TO receive
the Home Rule vote, and in every case
the nomination was made without a sin
gle division. Twenty of these nominees
are new men who have never been mem
bers of the house OF commons. In Eng
land the Irish is beginning to at
tract a great deal of respectful attention
from persons who not long ago utterly ig-
nored it as unworthy of consideration.
Prominent Irishmen in London have
combined to establish in the metropolis an
Irish club OF a basis equally sound and
respectable with that enjoyed by the best
of the other great political clubs. This
enterprise has already made considerable
advances in securing premises near the
parliament buildings, and business CEN
tres have been secured; but a great num-
Der of solid subscribers must yet be OBJ
tanned before the Irish club can be as
sured of permanent success,
Since Germany adopted a policy of
stimulating her industries, her merchants
have astonished Eurone nv their enfer-
prise and sagacity- German competition
is cutting deeply into even the screw
making trade of birmingham itself Mer-
chants of Germany have now m~emoralized
the German chancellor concerning the ad-
vantages England enjoys in main
tanning her commerce in Amer
lea, Africa and Asia by having
well paid consuls at all important points
in these continents, while German consuls
are all merchants who are often aliens,
and who as a rule spend their time in
looking after their own individual inter
ests without any desire to-aid in the ex-
tension of the commerce Of the empire.
1t is understood that Bismarck has al
ready began work, inspired by this memo
rial; that he has replaced many Of these
merchants as consuls by well-ehosen state
agents and that he intends to follow
English example9eyery where it is possible
to introduce German products or manu-,
features with advantage.

THE NEW SECRETARY.

1t requires peculiar tact and ability to
discharge efficiently the duties of the posi-
ton of secretary of the chamber of COM
merce, and whether that body has acted
wisely or unwisely in the election of its new
secretary is matter for future determine
ton. Prof. PHELPS was highly recon-
mended, and the committee charged with
the selection OF secretary must have had
substantial reasons for believing that he was
capable of filling the place, or they would not
have urged his appointment. The retiring
secretary, Mr.. McNEALE. has shown
wonderful proficiency in the discharge of
the routine duties of the office. and
a recognition of this fact was given
by the chamber in its action retaining him
as assistant secretary, position embracing
the same duties which have heretofore been
performed by him. The idea which seems
to have prompted the chamber of commerce
in making the changes which have taken
place was to make an executive office of the
secretaryShip and to get man in the posi-
ton who, in the vulgar parlance OF the day,
would be called hustler. In other words
they want the town doomed and the secre-
tary of the chamber of commerce to be the
head boomer. The object in view is worthy
enough and it therefore became matter of
special importance to get a man
whose natural talent. energy of char
acter and past experience qualified
him for that work. Some people are crit
ical enough to say that it is a reflection
upon st. Paul boomers that the chamber OF

A FAITHFUL SERVANT.

Notwithstanding the war that has been
made upon Land Commissioner SPARKS
through the newspapers which are subsi-
died in the interest of the land rings, that
official expresses a determination to pursue
apolicy which will preserve the public lands
for the benefit of actual settlers, and will
root out all the corrupt methods by which
the public domain has been gobhled I'D for
speculative purposes. The land rings will
now carry the fight into congress. where
they have more hope of accomplishing their
ends than they have in the land office The
people will be watching their representa-
tiyes very closely in regard to this matter.
If there is any change made in the present
conditions of the land Office, or in any legis-
lation setting aside the rulings of the land
commissioner. the people will want to know
the reason why. The country has conf
dence in Gen. SPARKS. and his rulings have
been distinguished by fairness and desire
to protect the people in their rights. 1t
will be Il very dangerous experiment for

PREMATURE DIPLOMACY.

1t is said that Secretary BAYARD, who is
ambitious to make name as diplOmatist,
fancies that he sees an opportunity to annex
the Sandwich islands to the United States,
or at least to establish protectorate over
King KALAKAUA's tiny dominions. If
Mr.. BAYARD has such ambitious purposes
in view, it is singular that he should be
fishing around in the Pacific ocean for such
small fry, when Canada and Mexico are
rubbing right up against us, and the West
Indies are within "a stones throw.
A good many people in this country have an
idea that sufficient employment for Ameri-
can diplomatic and legislative talent can be
found in our own boundaries for a
good many years to come, without embark
ing in any colonizing scheme of doubtful
eXpediency. Whenever we get ready for
annexation 1t will be time enough to pick
our game. And as protectorate over some
other country would Indirectly involve us in
war sooner or later with some foreign
power, it would be wiser to extend our pro-
tecting agis over something worth fighting
for, instead of putting the government out
as dry nurse to some ocean waif or sickly
bantling, too weak to protect itself. We
can better afford to let KALAKAUA and his
islands alone than to be meddling with
something that will be of no profit and may
result in great deal of trouble.

commerce had to go all the way to Winona
to find an expert in booming. But that is
neither here nor there. The progress of a
city doesn't depend SO much on the amount
of booming it gets as it does on the kind Of
booming that is done. AS in everything
else of value quality discounts quantity all
the time. Therefore it remains to be de-
termined whether the action of the cham
Der of commerce in this matter is wise or
otherwise. We express the hope that it
has been fortunate in securing the services
OF gentleman who is pre-eminently quail
fed for his new and responsible position,
and in the discharge of the delicate work in
hand Prof. PHELPS can rely upon the sup
port and encouragement of the GLOBE in
whatever he attempts in the way of pro-
noting the progress and prosperity OF St.
Paul.

At the same time the GLOBE has discussed
the RIEL matter as it discusses all other
questions-from an independent standpoint
without regard to whether it pleases or dis
pleases factions. Whatever is right in our
Judgment we commend. Whatever is
wrong we condemn. That is our policy in

REVISING THE RULES.
A Few Facts Showing why tn,
House will Find 1t Necessary.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-If the house of
representatives enters in earnest upon re-
vision of the rules, as expected, at the be-
ginning of the coming session the subject of
a code Of joint rules for the government of
transactions between the two houses of
congress is likely to be an element OF dis
cussion. The senate by vote of so to 4
declared several years ago there were no
joint rules in effect and formally notified the
house of its action, notwithstanding which,
however, the house, under an old ruling of
its speaker, has held to the theory that the
old code of joint rules would remain in force
until abrogated by an action of both houses.
Since that time matters have been,
by taclt concurrence, arranged in accord
ance with traditional usage, or by specific
agreement, to meet special necessities. The
necessity for a code of joint rules has, in
the opinion of certain senators, become
graver with each succeeding session. Two
years ago, after revising its own code of
rules, the senate took up a resolution re-
ported from its committee on rules which
embodied a carefully digested code of joint
rules, and after full discussion agreed to the
resolution and sent it to the house for con-
currence. The latter body caused the reso-
luton to be printed in the usual way and
referred it to its committee on rules, but no
further action was taken upon the subject.
Owing to the habit of the house of repre-
sentatives putting irrelevant legislation
upon appropriation bills, the practice
against which the senate in its own rules
has sturdily set its face, Several of the
APPROPRIATION BILLS
Of the last session became issued between
the two houses, the discussion and settle
ment of which consumed much time and
gave rise to no small amount of yexation
and i'll feeling. In every instance but one
the senate maintained its ground to the
end and only relented in one instance. The
new code of joint rules proposed by the
senate contains an emphatic prohibltory
clause directed against general or Irrelevant
legislation upon appropriation bills, and the
temper repeatedly manifested by the senate
during the last session indicates the prob
ability OF the days Of the legislative
rider upon appropriation bills being past.
1t is understood the proposed code OF joint
rules will be introduced in the senate by
members of its committee on rules, and
again rendered to the house. The attitude
of the senate upon this question is one of
the strongest of influences which inspire
the present movement to secure revision OF
the rules of the house. The latter body
having almost no other method under its
present rules for reaching action upon the
many important matters which press upon
its attention toward the close OF the session
than to affix them to appropriation bills,
which necessarily have precedence, "a re-
vision OF its rules becomes almost lmpera-
tive in view OF the prospective loss OF this.

LATE ST. PAUL NEWS.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
A Man Cuts fAis Windpipe With q
Razor. ana May Die.

khGAOTs anu md1y DRCs
This morning about o'clock the atten-
ton of Officer Larson was attracted to a
man sitting in the doorway of the Hunt
block, corner of Locust and Seventh streets.
The officer at first thought the man was
drunk, but upon close investigation his
throat was found to be cut from ear to ear.
He had bled profusely and had evidently
tried to check the flow of blood
by winding a handkerchief around his neck.
When asked his name he was unable to
speak, and in answer to the question as to
whether he cut his own throat he shook his
head. The man was taken to the
police station and Drs. Ancker and
Abbott summoned. They found that the
cut was made horizontally across the throat
and an incisiOn made in the trachea about
half an inch wide, and it was this cash that
he breathed.
A doubt existed among the officers as to
whether the case was an attempted
SUICIDE OR MURDER,
and the Hunt block, which is all unfinished
building, was searched, and back of stair
way on the ground floor Officer Lynch
found razor covered with blood. Blood
on the floor indicated that the man had
laid down there and deliberately drawn the
razor across his throat;the cut failing to inn
mediately prove fatal, he had risen, and,
walking to the front Of the building, had
sat down in the doorway until found. The
theory that he did the cutting himself is
substantiated by the fact that his outer and
inner shirts were unbuttoned and laid open
at the throat. A card found on his
person bore the name of Charles B. Pott-
geiser on one side and on the other written
in lead pencil, was the name Of f. A.
Luhls, 327 Pleasant avenue. He was a
heavy-set man, well-dressed, with a
full beard and evidently forty-fve years of
age and gentleman. AT a late hour this
morning the physicians considered his re-
covery far from certain. He was taken to
the CITY hospital,
