LATE MINNEAPOLIS NEWS.

From private source the information was
cleaned last night that Detective Quinlan
had made an important capture and that he
had left at once for New York. In
quiry of the authorities failed to
elicit any further facts, although it
is pretty reliably known that the man
taken into custody is wanted in New York
to answer to the charge of forgery in a
large sum, and that the detective who
bagged the game will get good reward.
Two of the other detectives are absent from
the city working important cases in which
rewards are also offered.
1t was reported at a late hour last night
that man had been crushed between two
street cars at the corner of Washington and
Fifth avenue south, but who the Wnfortun-
ate was and how badly he was injured
could not be aScertained

The Overwhelming victory.

SIOUX C1Iy FfeSS.
The Democratic victory in ST. Paul at the
city election Tuesday is a most overwhelming
one, gained as it was after a warm contest
and the most bitter attacks upon the party
candidates The Pioneer Press overreached
itself in its attacks, upon Messrs. Rice
and. Roche, squarely contradieting its
OWE previous expressions of commend
alton, while the Democratic cause was ably
and fairly championed by the GLOBE, which
reproduced clippings from the old files of the
Pioneer Press to prove the worthiness OF the
Democratic candidates for mayor and comp
troler. Out of total vote OF 15,008 Rice re-
ceived 9,314, Merriam 5,644 and A. ID. Davi
son 80, giving Rice $3.50 over Merriam and
$500 over all. The proportion of the
majority to the total vote is
very large and the victory is q
notable one for the capital city of one of the
banner Republican states. Although the Re
publican candidate for mayor was gentle
man worthy of the position, still his own pre-
cinct, which gave Blaine 100 majority, recon-
sidered its action and gave Rice a majority
among the neighbors of his opponent.
The result, whatever else it may show,
proves one thing, that to insure success
their must be honesty and fairness in politi-
cal management The Democrats secured
their victory without taking step which
they need ever regret while the Republican
managers insured defeat by course which
is not only regretted now, but will come back
to plague them in the future.

Mrs. DIR. Mary Walker, who is now per-
forming at one of the dime museums in this
city, is, am told by one of the profession.
sick of her job. AS the professional said in
his stage vernacular, ''She has bit off more'n
she can chew" A part of the duties of
DIR. Mary is to pop around ON the stage and
feel the heads of the curiosities and
monstrosities on exhibition, and dilate on
their malformations for the benefit of the
audience. There are one or two of these
who take occasion to aside some
unpleasant gags on the lecturer,
which now and then are spoken so lond
that the audience catches on and joins in
the chuckle. Yesterday she got her fingers
in the hair of Major Atom and was showing
him UP to the beholders, when he said
rather petulantly: ''Come off, now,
and cut the string. Pm hungry and
want to get something to eat" One
of the long-haired sisters told Mary to roll
UP her pants. / am told that the Mrs.
Doctor has mopped her brow several times
and remarked that if she had to do the dime
museum racket as steady job she would
forswear male attire and relapse into

England's suicidal Policy.

New York World
The pusilanimity of the English government
has done more towards insuring the loss of
India to England than protracted war could
have accomplished.
Foolish, suicidal as England policy seems,
it is by no means certain that has purchased
her even immediate exemption from war.
Russia tears treaties to pieces and throws her
pledges to the air whenever it suits her pur-
pose. This was shown in the war OF 1854 and
in the reputation of the treaty OF Paris i'll
1870, as well as in the recent advance on Penj-
deb. So while all England is blushing at the
governments humiliation, Russia may at any
moment march to Herat and kabul and laugh
at the trap of shame and modification into
which she has enticed the proud British
nation.

BATTLING WITH TIE BREEDS.

BATTLING WITH TIE BREEDS.
Gen. MIDDLETON, weary of waiting for
reinforcements and the advance of Col.
IRWIN and his 300 mounted police to his
support from Prince Albert advanced on
the enemy's intrenched position at Batoche's
on Saturday morning with dauntIess resolu-
ton. His line of advance appears to have
shown good generalship, although it would
seem that he might have placed a heavier
skirmish line on the TANKS. The troops,
however, advanced calamity and heroically
withstood the storm Of lead that they en-
countered. But the Calling gun and Capt.
HOWARD of the United States army con-
stituted the sheet anchor of the army's
salvation, for the advance encountered an
ambush and rush of RIEL's men from the
bushes. The discovery of this hidden foe
was not made until the line was within
twenty yards, when, with reckless disre-
gard Of consequences, the intrepid HOWARD
unlimbered his Calling gun and raked the
onruShing ranks with whitening fire which
created wide breaches in the advancing
column and drove the survivors in wild dis
may to the friendly shelter of the bushes
again, whence they sent volley into How
ARDS machine-gun operators and the
column Of infantry advancing CALAMITY to
his support. The rebels were finally
shelled out of their stronghold into
the friendly shelter of an inviting
raVine, whence they did some fine sharp
shooting with disastrous results to the
troops. In the meantime houses where
half breeds had taken shelter were shelled
and their occupants forced to vacate. A
band of Indians were also shelled out of a
stronghold wherein they had entrenched
themselves, and the engagement continued
until the friendly intervention of darkness.
The GLOBES special graphically details
how the ground was lost and won until
Gen. MIDDLEToN's troops camped for the
night. Further details and the results
reached are anxiously awaited, for upon
Batoche's would seem to depend great is
sues. If MIDDLETON succeeds in surround
ing the enemy and effecting their capture,
as he might the more easily do if IRWIN
had assailed their rear, the threatened In
dian uprising, with its train of evils, might
be averted. The danger appears to be that
even should MIDDLETON overcome REL.
he may escape and scatter his forces to
harass the troops by raids from their fast
nesses and stir up Indian strife with most
disastrous results to the Northwest terri
tories. A signal dei,,a Tor RIEL would
make the Indians hes; ace to take the war
path, but his capture would completely
oyerawe them. And this is the result most
desirable for the Dominion government to
reach.

NEW YORK, May 1O.-Great efforts have
been made during the present session OF the
legislature to have the penal code amended
to the extent of allowing pool-selling on
tracts OF property organized as racing as
sociations. The American and Long Island
Jockey clubs have used all the influence
they could command to impress upon legis-
lators the necessity OF passing some
measure OF relief for the racing
interests, but they have now given up all
hope, and general hegira to New Jersey
is threatened in consequence. The C0ney
Island Jockey club will, in all probability,
hold its coming meeting in June, at Mon
mouth park, instead of Sheepshead bay,
and the American Jockey club has leased,
through Mr.. w. r. Travers, the new driv-
ing park now being constructed in North
Berger, N. j., and will hold it's fall meet
ing at that place. The course is on the Erie
railroad, and is less than ten minutes ride
from the Jersey side of the river. The track
is full mile, and its conformation is sim
liar to the one at Sheepshead bay. There
is much indignation expressed by promi-
neht ttrfmen at the necessity which COM
pels an organization. like the American
Jockey club to abandon Jerome park. with
all it's pleasant surroundings. 1t has been
repeatedly asserted by turfmen that it would
cost $500, 900 to pass a pool law and Mr..
Pierre LOrillard is represented as saying
that he would rather give away all his
horses than consent to legislative relief by
other than legitimate means, but as New
Jersey is close at hand there is no danger
of the turf losing so liberal patron.

The president has won the confidence of
the people, and he is vastly stronger to-day
among the people who do not want office than
he was on the day when he took the oath of
his high office He has rendered the party an
almost unreasonable service by showing the
people that when Democrats are in power
our affairs are sure to be conducted faith
fully, honestly and efficiently. Let us then
be patient. The president is laying deep
and broad foundation; he is making more
Democratic national victories possible, and
we may be sure that when he can see his way
clear he will prefer Democrats to Republi-
cans in every place at his disposal.

Canadian Encouragement.

Boston Herald.
While no one can doubt what the eventual
outcome of the war in the Northwestern prov
inces will be, the present position of affairs
does not reflect any great degree of credit
upon the Canadian government. The force
sent out to crush the revolt is evidently too
weak for the task it is expected to perform,
and following the custom of English parsi-
mony in matters of this kind, the government
is unwilling to incur the expense needed to
send the required reinforcements. In the
long run, in matters of this kind, it is always
true economy to take at the first those pre-
cautions necessary to secure prompt and
certain victory.

ENGLAND is the largest importer of wood in
Europe, requiring 29O,O0O,O0 feet per annum
more than she produces. Inasmuch as neither
Canada nor the United States can much

European country can now produce much
more than is required for home consumption,
while almost all of them are importers, Great
Britain must ere long depend on her own re-
sources. There are extensive tracts of land
