THE NATIONAL GRANGE.
Several Resolutions on Important
Matters Presented and Adopted.


Boston, Nov. 1s.-At yesterdays ses-
sion of the National grange, W. 81, loot
hacker of Kansas City submitted report
submitting forth:
That if the principles Of cooperation are
so apparent and its necessity is so imperative
why should we longer reject the opportunity
offered through this organization of leaving
our impress upon the constitutions and laws
of this country?
The report was accepted. j. 81. Boise of
Oregon, for the committee on transportation
and commercial relations, submitted re-
port in which he said:
We recommend that our natural water
ways be made more efficient and that congress
aid in their improvement. We also call at
tention to the great importance Of congress
providing, as soon as possible, for the coz
struction of an inter-oceanic water way along
the Nicaragua route, which shall be under the
control of the general government. 1t should
not be forgotten that railroad managers of
trauscontineutal lines are doing all that they
can to destroy merchant marine. Neglect to
have limitations inserted in their charters has
led to fragrant abuses and corruptions of
power. We should now return and resume
our too-long-neglected rights and powers and
subordinate these corporations to the control
Of the people through the action of the legis-
lative power.
This report was accepted. j. E. Hall of
West Virginia submitted report from the
committee on education. 1t strongly rec
ommends the establishment of grange
libraries. and declares it is to the farm that
the nation must look for that element of
stability which is so much lacking in our
great cities. Several other reports were
presented, when an adjournment was had.

Asba Esurras, Victims.


SPECIAL TO the Glooe.
CHICAGO, Nov. 1S.-Mrs. Ray Goode
and Miss Lillian Walters, victims of Asba
Burras' revolver, were removed from the
county hospital to the Sherman house to-
day, and later in the evening We're taken to
the home of Miss Walter, in Ell Paso, ILL.
A reporter for the GLOBE called at the
Sherman house yesterday, and through the
kindness of DR.. Walter, brother of Miss
Lillian, was allowed few moments, con-
versation with Mrs. Goode. She still suffers
greatly from the wound, just below her
right ear, through which the ball entered
and came cut at the left cheek. The ear is
badly swollen and thoroughly deaf, the
drum having been torn away. The lid Of
the right eye is paralyzed and partially
covers the ball of the eye. She will prob
ably lose the use of this organ as well as the
ear.
In substance, she said that she had no idea
why Burras attempted to murder herself or
Miss Walter, unless it be that he desired re-
yenge for being discharged from the agency
But it was his own conduct which caused his
dismissal. When Miss Walter and myself
first saw Burrasin st. Paul, we became friendly
and continued so until the burning 10
of the agency there. 1 had leaned
him gold pen, which he refused to return.
II was OuEEcd up w k6Q we CSlQo 10
Chicago we met Burras, and 1, in very
friendly manner, walked to him and asked
him when he came to the city. He turned
from me with a sueer. The story of the pen
got among the employees and Burrss was
twitteo about it, one person named Kelly
remarkng if he had lost a pen
belonging to young lady he
would make it good He replied by pointing
to Miss Walter, calling her - For
this he was discharged. and on this account
he must have conceived the plot to murder
u.s."
Ibid either of you ever write to Burras'
wife maligning the character OF her hus-
band?''
mo, we did not write or even know where
he lives"
Have either of yon ever given him cause
to assume the attitude of an enemy to your
NO
SIS there no secret reason for this murder
Gus assault?''
None, so help me God, unless the man be
crazy
AS to the rumor that they would not
prosecute, Mrs. Goode, with all her
strength. partially raised her head and sol
emnly said they would push the case to its
utmost end. 1t was physical impossible
ity for them to do so now, but if ever they
gained sufficient strength to take the wit
ness stand they would prosecute their
would-be assassin.
Miss Walters is much more seriously in
jured than Mrs. Goode. Her neck is par
TALLY paralyzed. She has no control of her
head. which falls upon her shoulder when
not supported. Her brother would not
allow her to speak. In fact, she could
not do so. When taken to the depot
she was carried, while Mrs. Goode, with
the assistance Of two men, walked to the
carriage and into the cars. They will re-
main at the residence of Miss Walters
father and mother in El Paso until such
time as they are able to return and prose-
cute Burras, which the brother announces
it is determined they will do.

in life viii not be fruitlesss. From the
14th to the 10th chapter inclusive is the
narrative of his marriage and life in
California up TO his resignation in the
army. Even while at West Point he
had no military ambition. but looked for
ward to the life Of a professor of mathe-
mates at some non-mllitary college. The
remaining twenty-three chapters are de-
voted to the war of the rebellion.
and there are maps of all the principal
battledeids. The generals opinions on
all questions and his estimate of persons
who came within his acquaintance are
freely stated, and new light is thrown on
the character of many generals. nota-
bly, upon that of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston.
The second volume touches fncidentaIIv
upon the Andrew johnson matter. which
has been the subject of so much dis
cussion Of late. 1t will be published in
March.

was found dying on the street in Cincinnati
from two knife wounds. He was taken to
the hospital, where he shortly died, not hav-

his murderer.

Mayor Beaugrand. The action arose from
structures passed on the mayor for having
the Gagnon patients removed by force to the

GALVESTON, Tex, Nov. 1s.-With the

Thoman Strikes His Sphere.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-Thoman, late
of the civil service commission, has at last
met his destiny. 1t is announced that he
has accepted an offer to become the man
ager of New York non-explosiye boiler
company. This boiler will doubtless be
warranted to stand any pressure not hydro
static. 1t will generate steam, no doubt
without water, but with fluid with which
the general manager will have much better
acquaintance. 1t can now be accounted
for why the late civil service commissioner
asked so many eonundrums on applied sci
ences. These came doubtless from Thoman,
who was getting himself ready for new
job. Thoman, of all men, is the man to
manage nen-explosive boiler, even up to
the bursting point

New YORK. Nov. 1S.-A Washington
special says the president has called on the
state department for a full statement of
our relations with Germany and Austria in
regard to the treatment of naturaliZed citi-
ZenS OF the United States in those countries.
It is unders5o says the dispatch, that the
president is determined that the United States
shall no longer remain inactive upon this
question. In the event of Germany and
Austria ignoring our protests, IL is believed
that severance of all diplomatic relations
with the countries would rapidly bring about
q crisis. II is not thought probable that the
president viii mention the trouble in his mes
sOge, but he will make powerful suggestions
about the need of new navy and the alarm
ing condition OF our coast defense. In case
matters do not mend before the adjournment
OF congress- the president will make it the
subject of a special message, urging upon the
legislative branch of the government the alb
soute necessity of furnishing such manner
of odense and defense that in case the worst
comes this country should not be caught

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-Agent Arm
strong, at the Crow agency in Montana, has

the Indians on Tongue river are properly
supplied with rations and in no danger OF
starvation. It is said at the department
