English Political troubles.

LONDON, Aug. S.-NegOtiatiOns between
the Liberal leaders in relation to the fOrma-
ton Of an electoral program for uniting ali
the sections of the party have been deciSively
ruptured. The meeting which has taken
place between Gladstone. the Marquis of
Harrington and Mr.. Chamberlain has shown
no common platform is possible. Mr..
Chamberlain declined to abandon the rad
ieal propaganda of graduated taxation of
property. free education, labOrers' allOt-
ment at low rents or the scheme of home
rule. The declarations made by him in his
speech at Hull followed the rupture with
other Liberal leaders and were taken
as an open manifesto that he
had unfurled the flag of leadership
of the Radicals. and that hencefOrth
he would be free from control of Gladstone
or the Wing party. The anxiety of moder-
ate Liberals for the return of Gladstone to
active political leadership becomes more in
tense. There will be confusion worse con-
founded without him. Herbert Gladstone
Informs the inquirers that his father has re-
covered the full use OF his voice. Glad
stone tells his friends he has undertaken a
yachting cruise for the purpose OF eStab-
fishing his vocal strength so he may be fitted
to perform prolonged platform work. In
the meantime, he says, any strain affects
his voice, and he declines TO even hold con-
verse, except of short duration. An I'M
biased opinion prevails that the premier, not
withStanding the effort he is making TO add
TO his strength, will be unable to take
prominent part in the electoral campaign.

Contractor scored.

To the Editor of the Globe:
Dear Sir: The following was published
in your paper a few days since:
Mr.. James I. Tobin. contractor, writes
the GLOBE to correct the statement in re-
gard to Miss Lawless' falling into an exca-
vatiOng in Minneapolis. Mr.. Tobin says
that the excavation was safely guarded and
the lamp burning; that the lady was not
seriously injured: that the excavation was
only five feet deep; that the lady was well
acquainted with the locality and cOnse-
Quently it is surprising that she should have
fallen in"
In reply to the above l assert that the
excavation was not safely guarded" that
the lady was seriously injured" and that
she could not, under the circumstances of
the case, be acquainted with the absolutely
unguarded condition of the excavation
made. In addition it can and will be shown
Oh ample testimony that when Mr.. Tobin
was applied to for aid in providing medical
assistance he used insulting and abusive
language and declared that he did not care
a On" if she did fall in.
This is not the first case calling attention
to the reckless independence of our con-
tractors in regard to their obligations to the
city and to humanity. 1t is, therefore,
gratifying to be able to assure your readers
that this case will not be suffered TO go by
default and that Mr.. Tobin will have a
chance to make good his side of the case in
a court Of justice. JOHN SWIFT.

SPRINGFIELD, H., Aug. IA promi-
nent citizen of Hillsboro, who was in the
city to-day. says that man named Bis
marck Maseer, resident of Belleville, who
is wanted there as witness in a case pend
ing in the courts. was seen by him in this
city to-day. The story he tells is that
Maseer few DAYS ago received 81, 600 pen
sion money. When this was known his
creditors, who were numerous, made an
attempt to get their claims satisfied.
1t appears that two of these Matched a
scheme to brighten Maseer into paying them,
and. to accomplish this, one of them took
him in his buggy to piece of woods, where
the other creditor met them. They then
served notice on Maseer that unless he paid
them on the spot they would kill him, at
the same time displaying n
rope. These demonstrations made
Maseer quake with fear, and after
the creditors found he had no money with
him one of them snatched from his pocket
gold watch which he had purchased that
morning. saying that would satisfy his
claim. MaSeer brought suit against them,
but it is thought the parties charged with
the assault have made it to his interest to
stay out of sight until the case goes
by default. He is squandering his money
with a lavish hand.

FILLED WITH FRUIT.
But Prices still Soaring up Like
Balloons.

In spite of the fact that the Minneapolis
retail markets are fairly filled up with fruit,
the prices remain at the unapproachable
altitude which marked the first appearance
of the juicy edibles, and some of the most
tempting fruits are really above the means
of the average householder. Grapes have
made their appearance and command 20
cents pound. or ten pound baskets for
$3.50. Malaga grapes are worth 80 cents.
or five pounds for 81. BlaclbeTTies are
plentiful but they hold up to 20 cents box
and while blueDeITies are exceedingly thick
and almost glut the market, they sell for
u cents. Melons have appeared in guam
titles, but good one brings 30@35 cents,
small ones selling for % cents. Musk
melons are not so plentiful, or so good.
poor one bringing 12@15 cents. The
crop of both is large and the price is ex-
pected TO drop early this week.
Apples are scarce, as yet, and are re-
tailed at the rate of two and three
for cents. All of the similar fruit is sold
in the same way. Peaches are large and
fine and sell from two for cents up to
three for quarter, depending on size and
condition. California pears bring the same
prices, few native ones having reached the
market. Plums are only to be found in
fancy varieties and sell at % cents a dozen
for the large and 20 cents a quart for small
ones. Bananas are plentiful and bring from
20 TO % cents dozen.
Fine fruit is put up in temptingly arranged
baskets, containing pears, peaches, plums,
bananas and grapes, and brings fancy prices
for the arrangement. Large ones sell for
S1.50 and small ones range from 75 cents to
81. Dealers say the receipts will be larger
this week and prices will be lower accord

pleted arrangements. DR.. Schiffmann will
arrive in Minneapolis at 10 o'clock on
Wednesday and will be received and eS-
corted to the boat house. Everything will
be made as comfortable and agreeable as
possible, and the race, in connection with
the review, will be quite an event. Stone
is to allow Schiffmann a start of Is seconds.
The regatta committee of the Lurline
boat club met large number of the mem
bers at the boat house, Lake Calhoun, last
evening, and decided upon the following
program for the review: The first race
will start at 4 p. m. and will be single
scull between Lou Wilson and George K.
TAYLOR. 1t will be followed by double
scull race, for which the contestants have
not been selected. The Stone-Schiff-
mann race will be next at
about $50 o'clock, and will be
followed by the club review. The crews
will be in the following order: Paper shell,
