The ALLEGED DynamaterS


COUNSEL FOR CUNNINGHAM AND BURTON
GRANTED PRIVATE INTERVIEW WITH
THEM.
LONDON, May 12.-The trial OF CUNNINGHAM
ana Burton was resumed this morning AT the
Ola Bailey. On the opening OF the court the
counsel for the prisoners informed Judge Haw-
kfns that the governor of Newgate prison had
refused to recognize his honor's permit allow
Ing them TO hold an interview with their eli
ents- Sir Henry James, the attorney general
suggested that counsel for the prisoners Toe al
lowed 10 hold private interview with the pris-
oners, and this was granted. A detective named
Weeks, from New York, testified that Burton
arrived In New Hoik on the steamship st. Iau-
RENT on the 18th Of March. 1854.
Weeks evidence concluded the testimony re-
iatins TO the explosion at the Charing Cross
station. Other witnesses who testified to the
events OF the 18th of May followed.
Attorney General James i'm offering the
evidence OF the latter witnesses said he
did not propose TO connect the prisoners
with the dynamite affairs of that day. but SIM
ply desired To prove the existence OF reasonable
plots. Other witnesses were then examined
tor the purpose of proving the movements OF The
two prisoners from December until the dates OF
their arrest. Strong evidence Was adduced con-
meeting Cunningham with the explosion at the
Metropolitan railway. between Cover street
and Kings Cross but the efforts of the prose
cution to connect Burton with the same out
rage failed.

The seasons Caprices.

One evidence of the return to simple
styles is that statesmen suggest sixte en- yard;
of plain silk for dress instead of twenty,
as they did last spring.
One of the caprices of the season is that
OF combining materials that seem incon-
gruous in one dress, but the manner of
arranging does not change, the preference
being still given to plain fabrics for the
basque and drapery, with striped or figured
strffS in the skirt.
One of the new suggestions for street
costumes it the use of dark blue luStrous
mohair with vest and fan pleatings in the
skirt made of India red silk Grape; blue
velvet ribbon is used double like binding
beside the vest and fans, and silver ilets are
placed in this ribbon with silver cords run
through them.
A favorite way of combining two fabrics
in every part of the dress is that of putting
single width of the figured goods down
the back and the front of the skirt, while
the sides are of plain goods, laid in pieats
toward the front, and full breadth of this
plain fabric is placed each side OF the fig-
ured goods in the back.
Velvet or yelveteen, in contrasting eolor
with the etamine or cashmere, or WOOL STUN
of the frock. is used to excess for the cuffs,
belts, collars and capes pockets and pare
ments of chldren's garments.

ANDREWS BOUNCED.

The appointment of Mr.. ARMSTRONG of
Alabama to be consul at Rio Janeiro, Bra
zil, and the recall Of G.. c. ANDREWS, as
announced in the GLOBES Washington dis
patches yesterday, recalls chapter of Min
neseta political history which is brought to
a close by Mr.. ANDREWS retirement. At
the time the Hon. IGNATIUs DoNNELLY
delivered in congress his famous philippe
against the WAsHBURN family the Pho
neer Press welded a dominating influence
in the councils of the Republican party. 1t
bore no love for Mr.. DoNNELLY for reasons
which are we'll understood by the public,
and the paper made common cause with the
WAsHBURNs against him. When Mr..
DoNNELLY succeeded in capturing the Re-
publican nomination the Pioneer Press de-
termined to knife him. To this end one G..
C. ANDREWS was brought into the field as
Republican candidate in order to split the
Republican vote. The result was that Hon.
EUGENE WILSON, the Democratic candi=
date, was elected.
ANDREWS then turned his attention to
journalism and assumed the editOrship of
the Dispatch. There are people in ST.
Paul who will remember his two-column
dissertations of polysyllabie ponderosity on
the longevity of the fauna of the Eocene
period. His journalistic career was not
profitable to him or to the public, SO that
when Mr.. w. D. WAsHBURN did finally
succeed in getting into congress he paid off
the indebtedness of the WAsHBURN family
to ANDREWS for defeating DoNNBLLY by
securing him the Rio Janeiro consulate.
And now, like bad penny, Mr.. ANDREWS
is coming back to the custody of Nh.
WAsHBURN and the Pioneer Press to be
locked up for further use in slaughtering
Republican candidates. Now if Mr.. DON
NELLY had only been willing to have re-
Taxed his grip on the Office of surveyor gen.
eral and had consented to supplant AN
DREWs in the consulate of Rio Janeiro he
would have been the avenging angel of
poetic Justice.

AN HONEST EXPRESSION.

Mr.. FRANK NJ. PIXLEY is the Republic
can giant of California. He cast the vote
of his state solidly for Blaine all through
the memorable contest in the convention of
1880. In the Republican convention of
1884 the sentiment of California still organ
lied and directed by Mr.. PIxLEY continued
to demand JAMES G. BLAINE. The heavy
plurality which that state gave for BLAINE
in the election was an Endorsement for PIX
LEY. 1t is therefore all the more crafty
ing to hear Mr.. PIxLEY saying through his
paper, the Argonant, that ..all the Repub-
lican prophecies of evils to result from
Democratic administration have been DEM
onstratedS to be false" This Republican
writer and politician goes Oh in this way:
If the Hon. GROVER CLEVELAND has the
courage and firmness to conduct his admins
tration under the rules of civil service re-
form, he will have accomplished for himself
q reputation which will give him greater and
more lasting glory than has been achieved in
the field of war, or that can be accomplished
in that of foreign diplomacy. 1t is reserved
to CLEVELAND to inaugurate policy for the
conduct of our public affairs that is next in
importance to the emancipation of slaves and
the maintenance of the life of the nation; a
policy that, having stamped itself upon the
country, will forever contribute to preserve
the national union and to protect the liberties
of the people.

A st. Louis Pioneer Gone.

ST. LOUIS, May 10.-Wayman Crow, one
of the oldest and most prominent and best
known merchants of ST. Louis, died to-day
aged II years. Mr.. Grow was born in
Hartford, KY; came here in 1885; estab-
lished the firm of Crow & Travis, which
was subsequently, changed to Grow, McCrea-
" q Co., and is now and has been for sew
eral years known as Crow. Hargadine & Co.
one of the leading dry goods houses of the
West. Mr.. Crow was quite active and
prominent in all material enterprises dur
ing his earlier career, being president of the
chamber of commerce from 1910 to 1850.
He served in the state senate in 1910 and
again in 1850, and was one of the leading
spirits in the railroad movement in the
early day. Later in life he devoted much
time to benevolent objects and was closely
identified with the art and growth of the
city. He was a warm friend of Charlotte
Cushman and patron and friend of Har-
riet Hosmer, the sculptress. He was
also a generous contributor to ed
ucation, and a few years ago
ereered beautiful building, as memorial
to his deceased and only son, which is known
as the ST. Louis museum of fine arts and
which he decided to Washing ton university.
During the war he was a very earnest
worker in behalf of the Union soldiers in
the field, and was promin ent in all the sani-
tary and aid measures of that time.
