CLEVELAND, July 18th, 1885.
So Webster is to have new trial
and achange of venue. This is a most
proper and reasonable conclusion. If
clearly proven to be guilty, let him
hang. But no judicial murder should
be committed as a result of intense
feeling" and guesswork. Let the pros
ecution not disgrace the bar by work
ing up insane rage to rely upon in the
place Of clear proof. In the meantime
if Webster is not guilty little of the
surplus talent of the prosecution might
be spent in looking for the real culprit.
1t is safest to rely on facts clearly
proven, rather than in pointing the
finger of fury at the defendant i'll an
important criminal trial.

In a recent conversation with a
prominent and intelligent young
skilled workman in the mills, he de.
clared that the tariff did not protect
the working men that it was only for
the capitalist, who appropriated all its
benefits, and then imported his Poles
and Bohemians free to work at pauper
labor prices. Said he, /" am in favor
of tariff on such importations. am
the worst kind of Know Nothing.n
Said he. I" would put tariff of $500
on the head of every foreigner who
came TO this country. L Iwould not let
a single one come in short of $500. l
would keep them ali out and thus pro-
tect our own l..bor." Said /, Where
were you born 2" "In Ireland" ;" said
he, but my family is now here,
charity begins at home. We must
protect ourselves, and L would let no
more foreigners in" and, he added,
- the time has come to call halt, and
to begin to protect labor rather thaD
capital alone" 1 told him he had be-
come AmericaniZed with momentum
that had carried him beyond the ma
tives in his Know Nothing views. But
this son of the Emerald Isle was no
fool. He is live, reading, thinking
and influential man, well to do, who
lives il comfort and fair style, and is
likely to be heard from hereafter.

Ina conversation held some time
since with Henry King, Esq, long
prominent in the iron industries of
Pittsburgh, aud native of Ravenna,
he informed me that although he had
always been high tariff man, yet in
his opinion, the day when the tariff
could much benefit the iron industry
of this country had passed by. The
true remedy is not in high tariffs to
stimulate over production, leaving the
workmen unprotected. but it lies in
keeping step.with all modern improve.
ments, and seeking wider range OF
markets for our productions. Nothing
but bold national policy of this kind
will revive our dropping manufactures

shoulder was flung a leather strap,
from which depended over his

I'm er Roosian," he yelled, as Jailer
Spiel proceeded to diveSt him of his mill
tary trappngs. 'An' I served a term in
Siberia" This was enough to excite the
curiosity of the reporter, and through the
little hole in the cell door he drew some
points on the life of the man. He claimed
to have been born in 1881 in the little town
of Kasau, Russia. where he learned the
trade of furrier, and for a time was pros
porous merchant, marrying and rearing a
daughter and two sons. He at last became
deeply interested in Nihilism, and being a
man of nerve, though of ordinary educa-
ton, began the publication of
NIHILIsTIo JOURNAL,
which was secretly sent to different parts of
the country, and, not satisfied with this, he
became involved in an intrigue against the
ear. But there was traitor in the camp,
and one day he ''peached'' sand ROstagOf,
together with several of his friends, were
seized and banished for life to the ice fields
of Siberia. The old mans wife had died
before this, and when he was exiled, his
daughter chose to share the fate OF her
father, and together they went into the will
dernesS of snow. Two years after, the
daughter succumbed to the rigors of the du-
ties imposed upon her and died, and all
alone the broken-hearted old man, shnt out
from the world, toiled like slave. But
the fire in his blood had not died out, and
one night, after five years of this
miserable existence, when the guards
nodded on their posts believing that their
charges were safely sleeping in their quar-
tiers, Rostagoff passed their lines and made
break for liberty. 1t was hard fight,
and for two years he skunk through the
Russian domains and down to tho borders
of the Mediterranean sea, where he en-
barked in ship and earned his passage
from port to port until three years ago he
landed in New York and drifted West.
His long Imprisonment in the Siberian
waste has not dulled his enthusiasm and
he yesterday proudly proclaimed himself a
''Nihllist and martyr to righteous prin-
ciples.'

CARLOAD R ATE 8.
Opinion of a st. Paul Jobber ON the
Action i'm Chicago.


Mr.. Frank Keogh of Beaupre, Keogh
& Co. said yesterday to GLOBE reporter
that the action at the Chicago conference
between shippers from Chicago, St. Louis
and other points. and the managers of the
Joint Western Classification association
indicated that concessions had been
made to the Chicago shippers. The action
was in reference to the old question of car
load rates, and had fixed 8 d cents per 100
pounds as the difference between carloads
or lesser quantities, between st. Louis and
Missouri river points. on certain classes of
groceries. On all other articles mentioned
by the Chicago, Milwaukee 81 st. Louis
bureaus the difference between carloads and
less than carloads, between st. Louis and
Missouri points, is not to exceed 20 per
cent, and not to be less than cents, in
all cases the customary and agreed differ
ences to apply from Chicago and other
points.
Although this did not mention st. Paul
and other points in the Northwest, it could
not be regarded in any other light than as
the first step toward the same action, and
was contrary to the expectations of the
committee from the st. Paul JObbers' union
that went to Chicago some days ago. St.
Paul being one of the circle of towns of
the Northwestern district, which in
cludes Kansas City, st. Joseph,
Des Moines and other Missouri river points,
it was likely, Mr.. Keogh said, that this
city would be included in the same resolu-
ton. This would be somewhat Injurious
to st. Paurs interests. 1t would carry
with it a sort of prestige in favor of Chicago
shippers that would be used at first some
what to the injury of the jobbers here,
though it would be in name, chiefly, and
would be overcome. Still the action at
Chicago would be somewhat prejudicial.
Mr.. Keogh said that possibly the
combined resistance of st. Paul and Mime
apolis might counterfeit this, however.
There were several points to be settled be-
tween the jobbers here, the railroads and
the Chicago shippers, and each would be
taken up in time. If boycotting were
it would settle them if nothing
else would.

to the Grand Pacific at reasonably early
