against Mrs. Dudley; and now that Captain
Phelan has skipped we are asking our:
selves, What next? From present appear
ances it would seem that the life of dyna
miter is not happy one. If he is false t.
his cause, the Dynamiters go for him. L
he remains true to his convictions, the
hated Saxon nabs him and hangs him. Il

and the final result may be beautiful il

From present prospects the New York
and Brooklyn delegations to the inaugural
ceremonies on the 4th of March will take
up all the spare accommodations in the city
of Washington. All the hatters are busy
nearly 1000 thousand new plug hats having
been orderied in the past week. All of our
swell tailors are profting by Mr.. Cleve-
lands good luck, and there is no doubt but
the Democrats of New York will make a
very imposing appearance at the capital. It
is said that John Kelly may not be able to
attend, but an intimate friend told ME that
the Great Sycamore assured him that he
would be in Washington on the 4th of
March, if he had to be carried on a
bet big apple he will go. =a 80
Herr Most, Herr Schwab and about a
thousand OF their friends and admirers
met at the Anarchists headquarters Con-
cordia Hall, Wednesday night, and had a
glorious pow WOW. They attacked the law.
they threw dynamite into the constitution
| of the United States and blew it all to
| flinders. They declared all order tyranny,
and law destructive oppression. Every
fellow ought to be free to help himself to
the property of every other fellow; no
landlords, Sino banks, no big stocks of
goods belonging to one man, no large
storehouses filled with grain, but sort of
general free lunch where every individual
would be privileged to jump in and take
what he pleased. And above all, blessed
land where there is no police, and no mag
istrates, and no jails. At the pictured ar
rival of this hoped for consummation wild
hurrahs rent the air, and if it had not been
for the fact that no. Socialist believes in a
hereafter, this would undoubtedly have
been their idea of heaven. While they
lashed the police with their tongues
calling them groveling slaves and tire myr-
midons of tyranny, they took good care
to use no spittoons Or lager beer glasses.
The remembrance of the swash of those
long night clubs had wholesome effect
upon the cynamiters, and while they talked
dynamite and applauded dynamite, they
used none, and so got off without broken
heads. ..,+ +
War has broken out in the rival Ex-
changes, the end of which no fellow can
foretell. The Stock Exchange which has
been robbing the public for years has
issued its ukase that none Of its members
shall do business in any exchange which
deal in stocks. The Stock Exchange has
listed mining stocks against the protest of
the Mining Exchange, and now that the
Mining Exchange has joined interests with
the Petroleum Exchange, it has listed a
number of stocks which are sold on the
Stock Exchange. 1t proposes to give the
boys chance to take small flyer on
stocks. If you can't go hundred shares,
| try ten-a margin of fifty dollars will do it,
| and if you have not got that they will take
| twenty-five. This has awakened the wrath
of the moguls, and they threaten the
Anathema marenatha" on all offenders
| A broker in the New York Stock Board has
no evidence whatever that he is member
of the Board, except the fact that his name
is on the roll. It may be stricken from the
roll at any moment, for an infraction of
the rules of the Board, and The seat for
which he paid $4,000 is forfeited, beyond
| the power of the law. He loses also 800
600 life insurance, to which his heirs would
be entitled at his death. But the Mining
Board sticks to its coiors, and they will
worry the nabobs of Broad street. No
body on the outside cares how the battle
ends. In the language of Shakespeare
