THE OLD WORLD,


When the Irish members threw their
votes with the Tories, and wrought the
ruin Of the ministry that gave Ireland dis
establishment and the land act, they were
then certain that the Tories, lifted into
power by Irish help, would at once
"Parnellize" the government. But the
Tories appear to attribute Gladstone's
but to the loss of Liberal votes driven from
him by disgust at his submission to Irish
bulldozing. This disgusted liberal vote is
larger than the home rule vote. The Tories
are playing for this larger vote, and the
Irish are ''going to get left" Leading
Tory clubs favor the theory advocated by
Earl Spencer, that there is an absolute ne
cessity for continuante of the coercion
policy in Ireland. On this point the Tories
and majority Of the Liberals will agree,
and may combine against the Radicals
and Parnellites, putting the home rulers
in a pitiable minority and securing long
lease of life to the present mode of English
rule in Ireland. 1t is not believed that
Salisbury will seek assistance from any
of the Gladstone ministers in forming his
policy toward Ireland. His plan will be to
split the Liberal party completely by
proposing a measure of coercion based on
Earl Spencer's report. This policy would
be almost certain to lead to coalition
between the moderate Liberals and the
Tories against the Radicals and Parnellites,
and give the new government tremendous
| ma ajority.
Queen Victoria is said to be delighted
with the resignation of Gladstone and on
that account accepted it by telegraph
instead of delaying few hours for mail
communication. Mr.. Gladstone never was
in harmony with the queen on any subject.
They disagreed bitterly on all their
discussions about England's foreign affairs.
Mr.. Gladstone, it is said, rarely consulted
| the queen or informed her of the plans of
the government. It is thought the queen
will strongly favor a renewal of the Soudan
campaign, the retention of Egypt, the
settlement of the Anglo-Russian dispute
| on the basis of the Granville-Giers agree
ment, renewal of the alliance with Germany
an entente with Turkey, and no special
cultivation in an entente with France. Such
a policy has all along been approved by
the British foreign Office. Mr.. Gladstone's
intention to retire from public life has
utterly disorganized the Liberal arrange
ments for the coming electoral struggle.
The only campaign engagement made by
Mr.. Gladstone is one for Midlothian. The
Liberal election agents generally report
great difficulty in obtaining candidates to
contest seats on a Liberal platform, but
Radical candidates are plentiful.
Aterrible accident occurred on Russian
| railway from Koslof to Rostoff. on the
river Don A bar of iron wasplaced across
! the track by robbers, and the first train
which came along was thrown from the
| track and demolished. The number of
killed and wounded was seventy. The
| robbers, who were waiting for the smashup,
plundered the train. The wounded and
other survivors were completely terrorized
and could make no resistance.

Substantially the same area has been
seeded as last year, about 11.OOO, 900 in

IT is difficult to tell just where the
lines of "offcnsivc. partisanship' are to
be drawn. An Ohio editor has just been
down to Washington expecting to step
right into the post office shoes now
occupied by the Republican editor in
his town. He carried a choice scrap
book of extracts from the Republican
paper, showing that during the cam
paign the editor assailed Mr.. Cleve-
land with much vigor on the Maria
Halpin and kindred topics. Malcolm
Hay, First Assistant p. NJ. General
looked over the scrap book, and told
the Democratic editor that they were
not sufficiently "otfensive' to warrant
removal. 1t is evident that the
"offensive' line is not drawn at
Maria.

John L. Sullivan met Jack Burke in a
five-round prize fight at Chicago on the
18th. Burke held his own against the
champion, excellently, and was not really
defeated, but the fight was awarded to
Sullivan on the ground that he struck the
hardest blows.
Several hundred brakemen on the Balti-
more & Ohio road are on strike. The
reason is because the management propose
to send only two brakemen with train,
while the brakemen claim there should be
one for every ten cars.
The National Board of Charities and
Corrections in Washington elected ". H.
Nef of Ohio, president; D. C. Bell of
Minnesota first vice President and H. II.
Hart of Minnesota chief secretary.
The wife of J. n. Rutter, president Of the
New York Central railroad died two days
after he did, without knowing of her
husbands death. They were buried in
the same grave on the 18th inst.
L. G. Dennis, of Gainesville, Florida, is
dead. He laid a wager that he could drink
all the whisky in town at one sitting, but
the delirium tremens got him before he
had won.
The bursting of a water spout near
Logas, Mexico caused loss of 200 lives at
Pueblo. Great destruction and loss Of life
also occurred at Guanogusto.
The insane asylum at Williamsburg, Va,
burned on the 8th. There were 200 female

THE latest novelty is the attempt of
a man to dead beat his way from New
York to San Francisco for a wager of
$4,000. He is to ride all the way and
never pay cent for it and he is to OBJ
tain his meals without expending any
of his own money. Six weeks is the
time allotted to the task. 1t took him
five days to reach Pittsburg from New
York. 1t is evident that the dead beat
business has become = profession.
Perhaps in few years so much pro-
gress will be made in the art that a
dead beat" chair will be addcdto our
college faculties.

CAPITOL NOTES.

Supt. Kiehle visited the Anoka public
school yesterday and looked over their
preparation for the annual examinations.
It was unusually quiet at the capitol yes
terday afternoon, a goodly number of the
officials whose work was not pressing hav-
ing gone to the circus. Some of the officials
complained that they could have no excuse
for attending, they having no children, or
only such as were large enough to go alone
and did not need father to point out the
animals, whereupon Gen. Jennison sug-
gested that an agency to secure small boys
and rent them out to such as could not go
without some such excuse, would do a
thriving business on circus days.
To-day the railroad commissioners will
go to Litchfield. by invitation of members
of the Farmers alliance to confer with them
on pertinent topics. Next Monday they
will respond to similar invitation from
Herman, and on Tuesday visit Carlisle,
where their advice is wanted Oh the question
of moving railway station, The COM
missioners were at work yesterday forenoon
preparing the rules to govern the state in
spection. They say they will probably have
them completed within day OF SO.
Gen. Flower examined several engineers
Yesterday, and will be at the rooms of the
inspectors to-day for the same purpose. He
said yesterday to a GLOBE reporter that
owners of steam. boilers. he thought, did
not understand fully the law relative to the
licensing of engineers. Under the recent
law. all engineers are required to report to
the inspectors and secure license, and
failure to do so lays the owners of the
boilers liable to a fine Of 500 for the first
olfense. The inspector said that the law
would be strictly enforced after a reason
able time had been allowed in which to
comply with its provisions. Unless boiler
owners and engineers responded more
numerously than they have during the past
week that his rooms have been open for
applicants, they would compel him to make
trouble for them.

THE RICE STREET GANG
Who Make Life n Burden to PeOpl
i'm their NeighbOrhOOd.


| i'm their NeighbOrhOod.
Like almost every city of any size in the
country, st. Paul has her 'gangs" OF law
| less citizens whose acts are inversely as
their fear of Justice. The most celebrated
of these, probably, is known as the ''Rice
street gang" 1t is made up of about a
dozen though people," with a considerable
following of admirers, young fellows who
| look up to the others as a new recruit
| gazes on an old war horse. Speaking
about the ''Rice street gang" gentleman
who knows gave GLOBE reporter some
interesting information about the makeup
of the crowd The crowd proper consists
| OF about twelve young men. the principal
OF which are Mike Murphy, two Mullerys,
McInerny, Riley Quill and Sweeny. They
nearly all have comfortable homes, but are
totally beyond the control of their parents.
They are not so bad now as they were
two or three years ago, but whenever
they get to drinking they ''make Rome
howl" Most of them live short distance
beyond the bridge, and it is there their his
tories are best known. Mike Murphy, the
| acknowledged leader of the gang, who is now
in jail awaiting examination for larceny,
has the least excuse for being what he is.
He belongs to a respectable family, his
father being in good circumstances and two
of his sisters occupying positions as school
teachers. The Mullerys, also in Jail for
interfering with an officer, are fathers
by trade, and are said to be
good wOrkmen when 50 inclined.
McInerny, Sweeney and Quill are all rail
road men, two of them being fremen, SO
that when inclined to work they can do as
well as the average man, but when inclined
to make mischief, they can and will do it,
Every man of the number mentioned above
has been in the police court once or more
for some crime in the ordinary list, while
Lawrence Mullery has served a sentence in
the state penitentiary for breaking into
Forepaugh & Tarbox's establishment few
years ago.
From their past records, individually or
collectively, they are competent to do al
most any misdemeanOr, and are well worth
the extra attention which the police have of
late been paying them.

The Taxpayers Association Wants
Municipal Expenses Reduced.
Mr.. w F. Mason, the founder and secre-
tary of the st. Paul Taxpayers association,
gave to the GLOBE last evening the follow
ing communication:
The executive committee of the st. Paul
Taxpayers association, at their meeting last
Thursday evening, counted the votes that had
been returned to the secretary during the
past week.
The resolution submitted to the association
was as-followS:
Resolved, Ia the Judgment of the st. Paul
Taxpayers association there is fair margin
for reduction in the city expenditures of Is
per cent; that we request the mayor and city
council and others, having the various de-
partments in charge, to make this reduction.
There were 267 letters with votes in them
returned, $50 voting yes and IL voting no,
showing that nine-tenths of the association
voted yes, and in that proportion all of our
citizens desire not only stop to additional
burdens: but a decided reduction III existing
OUTLAWS.
For necessary Improvements, where those
who are to be specially assessed petition for
them, no one complains. 1t is too much gov
eminent that is piling up the estimates for
this years taxes. Most of the members of
the Taxpayers association think $1,000,000
should pay for interest on debt, fire depart
ment, police and schools and state tax, and Is
mills ON the dollar produces that amount.
Because, several months ago, some of
those who spend the peoples money, were
suggesting from 20 to 25 mills on the present
high valuation, this association was formed

"a Hack ina st. Paul.
G. W. Smith of Minneapolis. superin-
tendent of schools of Hennepin county,
died suddenly in West st. Paul yesterday
afternoon. He started to ride across the
river in one of II. H. Kent's hacks shortly
before o'clock, but while driving down
Dakota avenue the driver observed that the
gentleman had apparently tainted. He
drove up to George Marti's drug store,
into which the gentleman was carried,
and Doctors Darling and MacNamara
hastily summoned. Medical aid, however,
failed to resuscitate him and he died in a
few minutes, the cause of death being en-
bolus of the lungs. AS soon as life was
extinct Coroner Quinn was notified, and he
had the remains taken to Leigh's undertake
ing rooms on Bridge square. An examina-
ton Of the papers ON the deceased person
indicated him to be G. w. Smith of Mime
apolis, but it was not known certainly who
he was until GLOBE reporter who visited
the undertaking rooms little later recog-
nized him beyond doubt. The coroner on
hearing the cause of death decided that an
inquest was unnecessary; accordingly the
remains will be forwarded to Minneapolis
as soon as arrangements are made.
