only such weaknesses as connect him with
humanity and such virtues as will rank
him among heroes. The tidings OF his
death, long expected, gave shock to tho
whole world. Governments rulers and
eminent statesmen and scholars from all
civilized nations gave sincere token OF SYM
pathy. For an hour sympathy rolled a
wave over all our land. 1t closed the @ iasG
furrow of war. 1t extinguished the last
prejudice, it effaced the last vestige Of
hatred, and cursed be the hand that bring

silent symbol that liberty had conquered,
Slavery, patriotism, rebellion, peace and

another trumpet shall shake the heavens

postofices where the term of the postmaster

postoffices where the term of the postmaster
has all eady expired or is about to expire,
to which the president has given as yet
no attention. Of course the more import
ant of the places will be filed by the close
of the first year of President Cleveland's
administration, but the idea that there is to
be any cefsation in the scramble for place
is an entirely mistaken one. Go to the
white house on any morning on which
the president receives callers and
you will find the waiting-rooms
crowded with anxious seekers for place.
Run over the list of offices yet to be filled
and you will be surprised to find how many
there are yet remaining. 1t would be q
physical impcssibility for the president to
finish this work before the meeting of con-
gress even if he was so disposed.

NTrs, yyaskup,s Trial.

EMPoRIA, Kas., Oct. 22.-The morning
session of the Walkup trial was occupied
chiefly with the testimony of DR.. Jacobs,
the attending physician of the deceased.
He gave detailed and lengthy description
of his treatment of the patient repeating
almost exactly the testimony before the
coroners jury. The examination of Dr..
Jacobs continued throughout the greater
portion of the afternoon session. He stated
no developments of symptoms in Walkup's
case indicated poisoning until the Friday
before his death. On the post mortem
examination he found no indications of
syphilitic character in Walkup's remains
and the body was in well-nourished con-
dition. From the fatty appearances of the
liver he would say that arsenic found in the
system of deceased had been recently taken,
rather that from habitual use Of the drug.
Dr. Charles Gardner, chemist, who par
ticipated in the post mortem examination,
testified that the autopsy showed the trans
verse color was eroded on the inner sur
face. The liver was yellow and the mar
gins somewhat thickened. The organ also
looked fatty The kidney was slightly
swollen, but not with chronic infam-
nation. On analysis of the liver
he found arsenic. The witness
had not concluded at adjournment.

Southern men, among whom were Senators
Ransom, Harris and Gibbon, and Congress
man King of Louisiana were heard to-day
by Secretary Manning and Assistant Sec
retary Fairchild in behalf of the rice plant
ers. They seek to have rescinded or
amended an order issued during Secretary
Folger's administration, under which they
say food rice is admitted in large quantities
at the rate of 30 per cent. ad valorem, in
stead Of paying the specific rate charged by
law. The order referred to relates to granu-
lated rice, an unremunerative article, i'm
ported largely for the brewers. The claim
is made by the planters that the importa-
ti0ns under this order are doing great in

Gen. Sherman Declines TO Talk
About the Depew Letter.
Special to the Globe.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 22.-Gen. Sherman,
when asked what he thought Of the Depew
letter in regard to Grants charges against
Andy johnson, said that he knew all about
the matter, but would not tell what he
knew for $1,000, 900. He had known o$
the charges long time and had the doeu-
ments all filed away in proper shape, but
the time had not come yet to give them to
the public. Whether the charges were true
or not he would not say, only that Grant
had made the charges and that he had evil
dence concerning them which would be
| given to the world in proper time Further
the general would not speak. He thought
| it dreadful that anything at all should have
| been published about it.
DEPEW SAT UPON.
| LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. 22.-In view of

President johnson, the COurier-Journal will
publish three columns of Gen. Grants testi-
mony before the house Judiciary committee
July Is, 1865, just prior to the impeach-
ment of President Johnson. The Courier
Journal will say editorially that lit is as
tonishing that among all the wise men Of
the East, among all those so busy writing
his life, not one should remember that Gen.
Grant did appear before the Judiciary COM
mittee and give his testimony. Gen. Grant
certainly does not sustain Mr.. DepeW. He
says distinctly that President johnson did
not propose to recognize q congress COM
posed of Southern members and the Demo-
Gratis of the North. He asserts that in his
public speeches. when swinging arossd the
| circle, President Johnson did suppose o
case,' and then ask which would be the le
gal congress-, and he denies that he said
even this much to Grant in private. This
and no more is the substance Of JohnsOn's
treason and it is plain that what is new
| in Mr.. Depews letter is not true, and what
is true is not new"

of collector of the port somewhere in Wash

They are so badly put together and so lack

WASHINGTON, Oct.22.-Somebody has
taken the trouble to announce that the
president is going to finish up all his ap-
pointments before congress meets, so as to
be ready for other business, and to be able
to rid himself at the same time of the i'm
portunities of office seekers. This sounds
very nice, but it is probably the creation of
some vivid Imagination. The president
will hardly finish up his work OF
appointing Democrats to Office before about
the Sd of March, 1889. He has all he wants
to do just now to keep up with the appoint
ments for offices as their terms expire. Go
down to the postoffice department any day

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 22.-About four
weeks ago Thomas Walsh of this city died.
He was proprietor of an auction commits
sion house that averaged business of $780,
900 year. A few days before his death
he applied to the Peoples bank with note
for $15 900 to be discounted. 1t was made
for thirty days, and bore the Endorsement
of John WeimeiSter, a private banker at
Howell. The note was accepted by the
bank, and Walsh gave as further collateral
security note for So. 200, made to him by
Mrs. r. c.. Allen, dealer in boots and shoes,
and one for 81 $40 from James Phillips, his
bookkeeper, who had been doing business
on his own account at Wyandotte. About
the time of Walsh's death NJ. w. O'Brien,
cashier of the bank, got an intimation that
the Endorsement of j Ohm Wiemeister was a
forgery, and caused an investigation. The
Howell banker repudiated the note entirely.
O'Brien then took steps to secure the bank.
Mrs. Allen, on account of whose stock the
50, 200 note was issued, gave a guarantee
that it would be paid. From Phillips Mrs.
O'Brien was unable to get an assurance
of settlement of the $1.S40 note,
and two weeks ago he was apprised
of the fact that Phillips had consigned a
carload of his stock at Wyandotte and val
ued at So, 600 to his brother in Iowa. The
car and its contents were intercepted at
Chicago and returned to Detroit. The
bank holds about S5, 600 worth of CONNER
cial paper from Walsh. which has not yet
matured. The notes in some instances
have only the name of maker, and if the
maker of any paper repudiates it and de-
clares the signatures as forgery there is
no living witness to dispute his word.
Michael Bremen, special administrator of
the estate of Walsh, says that Walsh's
books show that over SIS. 600 worth of the
commercial paper had been discounted
within the past six months, but there is nc
memorandum of when the documents were
made. The market book admitted thai
Walsh had negotiated certain notes there,
and the persons to whom they purport tc
have been made claim that the paper is
fraudulent Mr.. Bremen estimates the as
sets of the estate Of Walsh at $4,000, OF
which S11, 900 is merchandise. There are
| $50, 600 in outstanding accounts, but not
more than s4. 600 can be realized on them
The liabilities are between 1000 and
$40, 600. The creditors, who are principally
Eastern merchants, will be fortunate if they
get 20 cents on the dollar.

candidates for the senate received plurality
Of ali the legal votes cast and should be de
clared elected. The argument in favor of dis
solving the injunction viii be that alleged
frauds may be corrected by contest, and
that the court has 10 power to interfere
with the count. The argument for continu-
ing The injunction and granting the
mandamus is that court always
has power to prevent fraud, but
fraud will be committed if The clerk is al
lowed to issue certificates and canvass the
returns as received. and that the clerk OF
the court, whose duty it IS sought to regu-
late. is particularly a proper subject for
such an order from the court. The Demo
cratic plurality in these five precincts APP

were votes illegally cast at the precincts in
question. If these are thrown out, all Re-
