Tar triumph OF Col Morrison over
Mr.. Randall in the fight over modify
ing the rules Of the House is just as
conspicuous as was Mr. Randal's
success in the last session in defeat
ing the horizontal tariff measure Of
the Illinois statesman. The change
by which the centrol OF the appropri-
ations is largely taken from the com
mittee OF that name will undoubtedly
lead 10 the more liberal expenditure
Of the public moneys. But this Will
only prove to be a misfortune on the
ground that they shall be improperly
and wastefully handled. A great ma
ton like the United States, with su-
perabundant revenues, and a surplus
which clogs the treasury, can afford
TO be liberal in its oullays providing
that the people get their moneys
worth. Even so wise and conserva
tive a statesman as Mr.. Tilden has
pointed ont the necessity for provid-
ing adequate defencea for the princi-
pal harbors OF the United States. We
also need navy, which will neces-
sarily cost a large sum Of money.
There are, likewise, points, like Will
mington harbor, where true national
policy calls for considerable outlays
in the interest OF commerce. What
the Democratic party ought TO aim at
is not a niggardly butt statesmanlike
and progressive policy. The people
will not grudge the dollars il the re-
suits are commensurate with the ex-
penditures.

DAY DISPATCHES.

LoNpoN, December 23.-The magis.
terial examination of the case OF John
and Sarah Magee, arrested on the 18th
inst, Mt kensington, ON charge of at
tempting to procure money from the
Prince of Wales by writing threatening
letters was held to-day. The letters
referred to stated that four men had
been appointed to murder the Prince OF
Wales, and the Magees offered to in
form ON the intended assasslns provided
they were given flo00 and free par,
don. The detectives, who were detailed
to look up the case, met the Magees by
appointment. and gave them a package
containing 500 farthings. This was done
to lead the prisoners into believing that
their request was being fully complied
with, so that the detectives might get
the whole story from them, aud see II
there was any truth in it. On Magee's S
discovering that the package contained
farthings, he upbraided the Prince for
his treachery aud demanded $500. He
also threatened to shoot the detective
who arrested him.
The Crown Procurator, believing that
Mrs. Magee was innocent OF the crime,
and that she was entirely under the in
Auence of her husband, withdrew the
charge against her, and she was dis.
charged from custody, 1t was proved
by drafts of letters found in Magee's
pocketbook that the letters sent to the
Prince of Wales were in his handwriting.
He was committed for trial.

SALT LAKE. December 23 The con-
spiracy trial of Hampton drew a bigger
crowd than ever to-day. Policeman
Salmon testified that the defendant gave
Mrs. Fields money and had contracted
with her to get into the house and see
what was going on. A room was fitted
mp for the police to 10 in and see what
was done. Policeman John Pickett also
swore to the same. United States Com
missioner Mckay swore that he had
received note from the Fields woman,
asking him to call. He did not comply
aud she called on him, pretending to
want 10 know the law against assigna-
tion houses. She refused to say who
sent her. lie told her he would send
her up for FIVE years ii the evidence
warranted it. Z. II. Lannan Of the Iri
bune. also received note asking him 10
call on business. lie called in the middle
# the afternoon. Mrs. Fields told him
she was fond of fun and thought he was,
and invited him to call again. Members
OF the Grand Jury swore that Hampton
told them he hired the woman as a
detective and paid her $3.50 in all,
money furnished, and some hundreds OF
his own. Francis Armstrong, county
selectnan, swore that he furnished
Hampton money, but didn't know 1t
was to open houses of i'll fame. aud lure
people into them. lie supposed that 1t
was to break mp street walking and
male followers. The character OF the
house kept by Fields WIS shown by
others to be an assignatf1house. The
defense rested in the afternoon. Hamp'
ton testified IN his own behalf and ac-
knowledged the deal with Fields.
The contract was to pay her
$25 for each man caught, no special per-
sons or premiums. He didn't engage
her to open a house. She already had
one opened. In July last he was in San
Francisco negotiating for female de-
tective to come here aud work with
them. Molie Woodward was the
woman. He arranged with a man
named Goldsione to close the transac-
tion aud sent $500 to him, but the
woman didn't come. He got $500 or so
back. Another policeman corroborated
the contract and the amount to be paid
for each man caught. He also corrob-
GRATED that the move was in the interest
of morality and had no sinister end in
view. They wanted to break up the
whole business of prostitution. The de-
fense closed and the court adjourned
Arguments will begin tomorrow.
