OLD WORLD NEWS.
Nyr. Stead,s Trial.

LONDON, Nov. 4.-The trial of Mr..
Stead, editor of the Pail Mall Gazette, and
the other defendants in the Armstrong ab-
duction case, was resumed to-day. Charles
Russell, counsel for the defense, declared
that taking the child Eliza away, with her
mothers consent, was no crime, but the
judge held otherwise. Mr.. Stead. who acts
as his own counsel, made powerful speech
to the jury, dwelling particularly on the
righteousness of his motives in his transac-
tons respecting the girl, and defended the
action of Mrs. Jarrett in refusing to betray
her confederate. N. Stead claimed that
the revelations of the Pail Mall Gazette
aroused the indignation of the public and
enabled the attorney general to secure the
passage OF the criminal amendment BILL so
as to reach such cases as were mentioned in
the Gazette. Mr.. Stead concluded his adj
dress by saying: eff the jury returns a
verdict of guilty will not appeal the case,
but bear the punishment imposed on me by
the court without finching." Applause
greeted this declaration.

UNIVERSITY SQUABBLE ENDED.
The nnhlic will he pratified to know that

UNIVERSITY SQUABBLE ENDED.
The public will be gratifed to know that
the controversy between the university
regents and the Northern Pacific road has
at last reached a conclusion. And it is all
the more gratifying, as the decision of the
supreme court is in exact accord with public
Judgment in respect to the matter. With
out any intention to call in question the
motives which governed the regents in their
fight against the railroad, it is most unfor-
tunate that they did not yield to public
opinion in the beginning. and thus have
saved the state some expense, have relieved
the railroad company of good deal of an
noyance and have done the university itself
more benefit than has accrued to
the institution from the protracted
legal struggle which was made. 1t reflects
no credit upon any public institution to be
engaged in an unseemly wrangle and es-
pecially when it never had a just provoca-
ton for the quarrel. AS the matter has
terminated the railroad will be constructed,
the requirements of commerce will be full
filed, and the university will be in no
worse condition than if there was not a
railroad within ten miles of it. The whole
agitation has been good deal of a tempest
in teapot, and it is a genuine relief that
it is over and the state is no longer COM
PEELED to stand in the relation Of principal
to controversy in which the people had no
interest in prolonging.

AN INTERESTING RELIC.

The Philadelphia Press notes the finding
of a veritable relic of the early DAYS of
American history in the shape of miniature
portrait of lady, whom it assumes to be
the mother of WASHINGTON. The relic was
picked up on the field of Appomattox on
the day of LEES surrender by Private
WRIT PHILLIPS of the Tenth West Vir-
ginia infantry, regiment which belonged
to the Twenty-fourth army corps. MI
PHILLIPS says that while passing through
a belt of woods, which had just been fought
over, he glanced upon the ground and saw
something red partly covered with leaves.
Picking it up, he saw it was red morocco
case containing inside beautiful miniature
painting set in gold case. Near by lay a
dead rebel soldier, whose identity.
if established. might have told some
tale of the portraits ownership.
When mustered out of service
Mr.. PHILLIPS took the picture to his home
in Upslum county, West Virginia, where
it remained until few weeks ago,
when it was presented to Mr.. MARCUS A.

Old Rates WIFI Hold.

CHICAGO, Nov. At to-day's session of
the representatives Of the roads interested
in the lumber traffic of the Middle and
Western states. word was received from the
officers of the Flint & Pere Marquette road
that they deemed it inadviSable to advance
rates at the present time from the Saginaw
valley, as higher rates would not hold in
the face of existing competition. conse-
quently that road would hold to the rate of
6 cents per 100 pounds arbitrary tariff until
the close of navigation. This was also the

meeting decided to let rates continue as
they are for thirty days. This will allow
the present decentralization to continue till
the committee appointed has reported an

George Fl. Eastman, secretary, and T. j.
Buxton, treasurer.
A letter was received yesterday from
Theodore Davis, the artist. who is in At
lanta preparing the preliminary work on
The Battle of Atlanta which will be the
subject of the panorama painting. He says
the foreground will show stone house,
shattered by shell, and the mangled re-
mains of the De Grasse battery and the
fight to capture it, will occupy prominent
position. Gen. Logan is to be shown
with Gen. Sherman and staff. Mr.. Davis
was the Harper's Weekly artist during the
war and is more or less familiar with the
ground, so that something brilliant may be
expected from his brush.
The walls of the panorama building are
steadily ascending. and the company ex-
poets to have it under roof this winter. Mr.
Wehner, the originator Of the scheme. will
be here in day or two to superintend the
work. The painting will probably be made
in Milwaukee.

The correspondent of BRICK PoMERoY's
Democrat, who predicts that the day is not
far distant when ST. Paul will crowd Chicago
to the wall in the race for commercial lau-
rels, is prophet who deserves honor in any
country. The seer-like vision of this level
headed correspondent enables him to see that
there is no other city in the country which
possesses anything like the future prospects
of st. Paul. In this respect the correspond
ent only reflects the opinion of every stranger
who visits this city. The reason for this be-
lief exists in real, substantial evidences of
prosperity, which greet the visitor on every
hand when he arrives in the city. st. Paul does
not seek to build itself up by pulling its
neighbors down. Tt is a city founded on a
rock, and the foundations of it's prosperity
are perpetual in their duration.

Talking About Free Trade.

LONDON, Nov. 4.-Lord Salisbury de-
livered a speech in Victoria hall, London,
this evening. He denied that the Tories
wished to tax cereals, but said that free
trade should not prevent an arrangement of
duties in order to place England ON foot
ing with other nations. To take hypo-
thetical case: If Spain refused to admit
English manufactures. but admitted those
of other countries, the raising of duties on
Spanish wines by England would not be an
infringement Of free trade principles, but
would be a justiiable retaliation; nor
should England be prevented from altering
her tariffs in order to benefit her colonies.
The speech is considered bold bid for the
prOtectioniSt vote.

THE DAKOTA ELECTION.

Outside of the interest manifested in the
capital issue and the election of county COM
missioners. the Dakota election was very
tame affair. With the exception of very
few polling places there seems to have been
no interest taken in the so-called South Da-
kota constitutional and state government
election. When congress has admitted
Dakota as state and an election for state
officers occurs under the constitution which
has been accepted by congress, then there
will be an interesting fight for the state of
fees. AS it is Mr.. MELLETTE enjoys the
anomalous honor of being an officer without
an Office, and the new constitution has no.
where to lay its head.

THE DIFFERENCE.

The Cincinnati Enquirer made an as

Now in order to be consistent the Enquirer

HoADLY had given less prominence to local
issues and more to national questions in the
Ohio canvass he would have been elected.
EX-Congressman CONVERSE of Columbus.
well-informed man of solid Judgment, holds
that the prime cause of the defeat was HoAD-
LY's canvass, in which he went outside
the legitimate constitutional grounds OF OPP
position to prohibition, and gloriied the use
of liquor as cOmmendable and in no sense
harmful. This was HoADLY's great mis-
take. There are plenty of people and good
Democrats, too, who are opposed to Pro-
hibition and yet do not glorify the drinking
habit. There are too many people who
have felt the evils resulting from the use
and abuse of intoXicants and who do not
want to hear the praises of drinking
sounded by influential and representative
men before large audiences. If Gov.
HoADLY had done as Gov. HILL did, just
have said to the people of the state here is
the record of my administration, take it
and make the most of it, and then had
gone into the fightas the champion of the
reform national administration he would
have won. HoADLY is man of more
ability than HILL and ought to have taken
higher ground than he did. The result in
the two states shows which was the wiser
course-the one pursued by HILL or the
one pursued by HoADLY.

section.s Mr.. Roof carried it back to Phila-
delphia, and being himself connoisseur of
portraits. had an investigation made and
the conclusion arrived at is that the picture
is portrait of MARY WASHINGTON and
was done by GILBERT STUART. An ex-
animation with microscope of the colors
revealed the fact that the red lips, OF which
faint traces remain. were laid on with pig
ment which has not been used by artists
during the present century on account OF its
liability to fade.

Kew Carpets in the white House.

Speclal 10 the GlODe
Workmen are busy all over the capitol
getting things ready for congress- In the
hall of the house they are putting down
bright, new body Brussels carpet. Each
new congress is always getting new carpets.
This carpet is severely simple, being solid
red ground, dotted all over with small cir
cular figures Of darker color. 1t was
made expressly for the house of representa-
tiveS from original drawings. and the entire
1870 yards ordered were put into the dye
bath at one time, so as to insure an even
uniform color. Chief Clerk Towles,
who went to New York and made the
selection, says it is the best carpe
ever put down in the hall of the house, and
cost considerably less money than any
other. Small figures were selected, be
cause of the fact that they admitted of mor6
economy in cutting and matching. so that it
has taken 155 fewer yards than were used
two years ago in carpeting the floor of the
hall. This carpet cost S1.15 a yard, and
the cheapest carpet heretofore cost S1.50 a
yard, making the total cost of this years
carpeting the hall of the house 1926.
against 50, 055 two years ago. Altogether.
it will take about 1900 yards Of carpeting
for the house wing of the capitol the most
expensive being Wilson carpet in the
speakers room, which costs 81 yard.
