MISSING MEMORIALS.
John nieCuIIODgh's Medals Believed 10
Have Been Stolen.

PHILADKLPHIA, Pa, November 14.-The
Mccullough memorial believed to have
been stolen consisted of silver laurel
wreath presented to him by the citizens Of
New York, at the termination of an en-
gsgement at Booths Theater nine years
ago; gold medal given him by the citi-
zens OF Memphis, in consideration of his
playing for the fund for the relief of the
yellow-fever sufferers, ana gold and silver
medal presented to him by citizens OF st.
Louis for contributions to and services in
aid of the fund for sufferers by the Missis-
sippi flood. The late tragedian had them
in his possession when he left for the
West, Just before his break down in Chi
cago. Inquiry has been made in New
cities, on the theory that perhaps the arti-
cles had been mislaid by the actor in his
wau1eriDgs, but the most thorough search
hiss failed to discover any trace of them.

BISMARCK stands to-day the very person
sdcstieu of brute force, and will go down
in history marked as hideously as the
brutal French monarch who revoked the
Edict Of Nantes ana drove half million
Huguenots into exile, the very hower OF
his kingdom. Since that syent, the sick
ening details of which have Hess faithfully
preserved for Us by the historian, no @tAer
has transpired so disgraceiul to civiliE 2ton
as the driving of the Russian Poles out OF
the German Empire by the Iron Chancel-
lor's order-the edict of ? brutal barbarian
who denies all the rights Cf human
ity because he has the force,
the blind brute force, to enforce itf
execution. The details Of tbs hard
ships of these poor, helpless people as
they are to be found in our London letter,
are sOul-stirring in the extreme, and are
enough to arouse the whole civilized
world to angry protest. Even the German
people are protesting, and have organiz ed
committees for their relief.

OUR SHIPPING INTERESTS.
Measures for she Relief of Foreign
Ocean Commerce

NEw YoRR, November l4.-A meeting
of representatives from the several COM
mercial associations of the city was held
yesterday to consider and discuss meas
ures that will be brought before Congress
at the approaching session, for the relief
OF foreign ocean commerce.
The Hon. Abran Hewitt spoke: at had
been said that the shipping interests were
protected. Now, if this were question
of protection, then the shipping interests
had been protected to the extent of abso-
lutte prohibition. He would pledge Con-
gress 10 remove every charge on American
shipping, if any such remained. If we are
to make e bonus or bounty to ship-owners,
then it will be taken from the taxpayers.
Ship-owners should be ashamed to take
such tax. II foreigner can do the work
cheaper, he is no longer an enemy. but a
friend. The owners of this building"
concluded Mr.. Hewitt, might just as well
be paid to fly the American flag as to give
s bonus to vessel doing the same thing"
Congressman Adams and Viele were
present, but cared not to discuss the gues-
tion of shipping interests then.

THE Ssrvian and Bulgarian troops have
encountered each other in battle, and
though the result has been disastrous for
the latter, the enthusiasm of the people
has not been in the least dampened.
Prince Alexander has made an earnest
appeal to them, and they, as well
as the recently annexed Roume-
lians, are focking to his standard.
King Milan is no less ardent and the
full military strength OF both countries will
doubtless be in the field in a few weeks
unless in the meantime the great powers Of
Europe interfere. What the end may be

The Swamp Angel Captured at the Pea

and brave detective who made the arrest,

Our London letter makes it clear thst
Mr.. Gladstone has made great hit by his
Edinburgh speech. He has convinced
Liberal churchmen that the Church of
England is not in immediate danger OF
disestablishment, and the consequences
are seen in a general rally OF those who
had been disafected to the Liberal cause
by reason of the extreme to which the
Radicals had gone in their declarations in
favor OF and demands for separation OF
the church from the state. The grand
old man" is evidently still the beacon
light of his party, and it is likely to find
its profit in the future as in the past in
following his guidance closely. He knows
the English people, and is not willing to

Of Mississippi, who died in Cincinnati. Augu


80, 1885.
After lingering illne,s Of many months thus
calmly passed away who posse ed many no.
BILE qualities of heart and mind. Ever a true
friend, devoted husband, there is left a void
that can never be filled in the hearts Of tho who
knew him well and loved him best. The tende
care of loving wife, and all that dical science
could do, were cf no avail. His kindly voice is
hushed-his pleasant, handsome face will no more
be seen on earth-gone 70 join the mother whose
presence be felt near him in his dying hours
gone to solve the mystery of life beyond-he
has crossed over the dark river to the goljen
shores of eternity. No more weary days and
sleepless nights. Far from his home in the Sunny
South, q green hillside in the " silent city of
the dead" we laid his body to rest. The grief,
the loss is ours we can only look for consolation
to Him who doeth all things what seeneth best.
How mysterious. how strange, oh, God, are by
ways,
To take from us this loved one in the best of his
days.
He has fallen asleep-it is we'll,
He will not be weary again;
We shall lie down beside him ere long,
Then why Should our weak faith complain?
We shall claim on the morn of our rising
Victor palms which seraphim keep,
Oh. whaf glory will crown the beloved
In Christ who have fallen asleep Y.

office and called for Europe to enter upon
his duties as Consul ct Elberfeld, Ger

that Mr.. Fosters naturalization dates only

quotes from the great German authorities,

with the Bundesrath alone, and not in the
crown, the right to Danish aliens from the

Kitz's Position Growing Intersstine.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 2S.-Almost the sole
topic of conversation has been about the
genuineness of the warrants declared by
Trustee Kitz to be forgeries. Every one
who has examined them expresses the opin-
ion that they are genuine. Kitz still main
tains they are forgeries. Upon the strength
of his declaration it is suggested that Pol
lard be indicted for uttering forged paper,
and his extradition asked for ATTORNEYS
agree he can be brought back upon the
charge. If he is brought back it will make
it exceedingly unpleasant for Kitz With
his testimony and the overwhelming and
unanimous opinion of experts that the sig
natures are genuine, it is hard to see how
Kitz can escape conviction for issuing fraud
ulent paper. Democrats and Republicans
shares alike in this belief Kitz himself is
growing uneasy at the coil that is weaving
around him, and is not half SO buoyant as
he was day or two ago.

praying the court to forbid Secretary Whit
ney and the members of the recent court
martial which passed on his case from alter

if granted, viii be to make verdict in

abuse of power by the reviewing
officers There is some cause for
such ruling. In the Swain case, for in
stance, the verdict was sent back to the
court three times before it was accepted as
satisfactory. Among army and navy Off
GERS it is thought that it would increase the
power and dignity of court martials if their
proceedings had more final character.
They think that these sentences should have
the same force as a civil court, and they
are watching with interest the present test
case, which brings TO an issue the validity
of court martial verdicts.
