ATLANTIC CITY. y. j., Aug. 3d.
Charles Field, Sr., who is over So years of
age, and who has been in business in Phila-
delphia for over fifty years. was to-day
victimiZed out of 50. 500 by a brace of buncO
steerers in Atlantic City. Mr. Fields and
his son, who is associated with his father
in business in this city as gen
eral agents of the Clark spool
cotton, have cottages adjoining
each other On Illinois avenue. nearly oppo-
site the TTaymOre house. Mr.. Fields. Sr.,
took stroll after dinner. when he met a
young man of good address, who, after a
courteous handShaking, stated that he was
an old friend of his, that he had been clerk
for the Pennsylvania National bank, and
since his resignation had been abroad. The
man told old Mr.. Fields he had brought sew
eral fine pictures from Europe, which
he would be pleased TO have him
inspect. Mr.. Fields accompanied him to a
house where he was introduced to a game
played on q board with numbers on il, and
with a spinning arrow, preSumablya sweat
board. Two other gentlemen were intro
duced, and they played the game, winning
over 81, 600 each. Mr.. Fields was invited
10 join the game and he lost over 500, but
continued 10 play. After playing
some time the bunco men cOOlly
asked the old gentleman for his
check for $4,000, drawn to himself, as
the collateral for a grand prize he had
drawn on the sweat board. A check was
filed out and Mr.. Field signed it. The
check was on the Pennsylvania National
bank of Philadelphia. Later in the day Mr..
Fields, realizing that he had been swindled,
started out to find the house. but was un-
able to find it. 1t is thought here that the
buncO man has carried the check to New
York and negotiated it at large discount.

THE ST. PAUL CONVENTION.

Capt. B. D. WOOD, chairman of the ex-
ecUtiye committee for the improvement of
Western waterways, is determined that the
lower river interests shall be represented at
the convention to be held in this city next
Thursday, and has appointed the following
committee to visit the convention: Z. K.
CONVERSE, RICHARD SNNoTT, A. G..
BRICE, DUNCAN F. KENNER, E. A
BURKE, J. W. BLANKS, l.. V. COOLEY,
". G. WYLY. J. r. G. PITKIN and j w
BRYANT, representing Louisiana; E. c.
CARROLL, c. e. WEBB and S. E. RUM
BLE, representing Mississippi; n STRAUB,
Il. VI. JOHEsON and LOGAN II. Roors,
representing Arkansas, and J. w CLAPP,
r. =. SNowDEN and w. A. EBERMAN,
representing Tennessee. The object Of
their visit can be understood from the fol-
lowing extract from an editorial in the New
Orleans TImes-DemOcrat:
Tt viii be remembered that the St. Paul
convention was originally understood to in
clude representatives of all portions of the
valley, and that several of the Southern
etates and cities mad agreed to send delegations
there, when the official call of the governor
OF Minnesota limited the discussion TO the
v
and extended invitations to the Northwestern
ststes Only. This limitation aroused some
feeling and developed some fear lest the con-
ventiOn might bring about split in the
valley interests. and Destroy by disorgan-
izatiOn and lack Of harmony, the strength it
possessed. The Times-Democrat thought,
that harmonious and friendly feeling
could best be restored by the Western water
ways committee recognizing the St. Paul con-
ventiOn and sending 4 committee there to see
that the harmony which has always existed
between all portions of the Mississippi valley
in the matter of river improvements, be pre-
served. We are glad TO see that our sugges-
ton has been adopted, and a visiting COM
Inittee appointed, of gentlemen who have
promised TO go to st. Paul. We have no
doubt that they viii be welcomed there. and
still further cement the union that has always
existed between the Northwestern and South
western states in favor of the improvement
of the Mississippi, and prevent that split or
division in the ranks of the valley which was
SO much dreaded. The valley viii continue
united on this issue until the Mississippi is
navigable from st. Paul to New Orleans for
the largest vessels; and this committee will
do much toward continuing this union and
preventing any division Of sentiment.
Our visitors can rest assured of cordial
welcome, and of a disposition on the part
OF the convention to cement the union be-
tween the Northwestern and Southwestern
St. Paul daily globe., 1885-08-31

states in favor of the improvement of the
Mississippi river. 1t was just for that pur-
pose the convention was called. There can
be no sort of union between the North
western and Southwestern states as long as
one section manages to get the lions share
Of the appropriations. 1t was for the pur-
pose of securing to the Northwest an
equitable share of the appropriations
made by the general government that
the governor of Minnesota called the
convention. The Southwestern states
were not invited to participate be-
cause they had never shown a disposition to
concede us anything. If the visiting COM
mittee from Louisiana desires to secure un-
ion, it understands how it is to be done.
When Justice is done TO the Northwest there
will be no division of sentiment. If it is
expected, however, to secure harmony and
unity of action by perSuading the st. Paul
convention to agree to let the matter re-
main in statu quo, and to permit the lower
river section to continue to gobble the ap-
propriations in the old way, then the COM
mittee's expectations are vain. The st.
Paul convention will ask for nothing but
Justice to the Northwest, and if unity of
sentiment and action cannot be had on that
basis we don't want it. This is pressing
and practical subject, and there is no use in
mincing words about it. If the lower river
people have axes to grind this will not be
the place to do it. The Northwest feels
that it is capable of taking care of its own
interests, and ii is going to do it.

FUSION IN IOWA,

IT is a little singular that any Democrat
should object to the GTeenback fusion in
Iowa. The Chicago Herald, which is an
independent paper with Democratic tenden-
cies. objects 10 ii because it has no patience
with Greep3acEers, and doesn't believe it
right to give them cOuntenance in any shape
or form. The Omaha Herald, which is a
straight-ouJ Democratic newspaper and
thoroughly indoctrinated with JACKsoNIAN
and JEFFEEsoNIAN principles, objects to
fusion upon principle. 1t doesn't believe
that any good was ever accomplished by
fusion or ever viii be. 1t should be remem-
bered, however, that the views held by the
GTeenbackers can never be made to conform
with Republican notions. If the Greenback-
ers do not act with the Democrats. they must
continue to stand out as an Independent
organization. AS an organization distinct
from Democrats and Republicans they can
not hope to accomplish much i'm the can
vaSS. Opposition to monopoly is the funda-
mental principle Of the Greenback party.
1t was organized upon this idea. The con
victiOns which it was formed few years
ago to enforce are more generally enter
tanned now than they ever were before,
and yet there is less of disposition shown
by the average voter to accept them as
reasons why he should forsake his regular
party affiliations. The very success of the
anti-mOnopOly ideas is what has proved
fatal TO the organization that did the mis-
siOnary work of diffusing them. The Green
back party was organized as a protest against
the methods of the Republican party. 1t
was principally made up of Republicans,
who revoted against the mOnopollstic tend
encies Of their own party and of Democrats
who despaired of their party ever coming
into power. Now that the Democratic
party has come into power and forms a bull
wark against the encroachmentS of capital
upon labor and against the inroads of mo-
nOpoly upon our free institutions, there is
every reason why the Greenback and Anti
Monopolistic organizations should fuse right
into the Democratic party. The third party
accomplished its purpose when it effectively
directed the attention of all parties
to the corrupt influences of the cor
pOrations whose managers had de-
bauched the suffrage, corrupted the
courts, bought the legislatures, stricken
down officials who would not do their bid
ding. and had taken commerce by the
throat Under Democratic administration
change took place. Corporations have
been compelled to relax their grasp on the
government They are placed on precisely
the same relations with other business.
There is no more favoritism. The cattle
kings have been dethroned, the land grab
bers have been brought to a sudden halt,
the railroads are made to feel that while
they will be protected in all their legitimate
rights, they will not be permitted to OPP
press the people. And thus it is that all
citizens who hold anti-monOpoly ideas
naturally look to the Democratic party for
the enforcement of those ideas. 1t is en-
tirely appropriate then that the Greenback-
ers in Iowa should be anxious to unite their
cause with the Democracy of that state and
that the Democrats should be willing to
take them in.

3gcCuIIOugh's Appearance.

Special to the Globe.
New YORK, Aug. SO.-To those who
seek John Mccullough in the Bloomingdale
asylum his likeness to his ''Virginius'' in
the mad scene is startling and pitiful.
There are precisely the same distraught
manner, vacant staring, aimless gesticula-
ton and arOusalS into excitement. This
would seem natural enough in view of the
fact that the tragedian's mimicry of insan-
ity was modelled after studies from real
madness. but there is a reflex aspect of the
case in the certainty that in those moments
when reason glimmeringly returns he
imagines that he is again acting the part Of
the deTanged Roman. This is shown by his
assumption of the poses which he en-
plOyed on the stage, and his reproduction
of the gait, facial expression and even
snatehes of the language of the familiar
prison scene. That he is in durance assists
the cOnceit in the tragedy. He threatens
to death the enemy who enters his cell,
recognizing the danger thathe might under
take to enact the role of Virginius to this
climax with his attendant. Especial pre-
cautions have been taken to rescue the vic
tim of an onslaught. But, thus far, Nc
CullOugh has shown no violence, and the
physicians say that he will soon die, weak
and imbecile. He has aged so much while
here that he would no longer reqnire arti-
ficiality to look the old Roman father.

RAILROADS IN POLITICS.

There is na STATE in which railroad inter
cSts ;'re so sharply defined as a political is
sic rs ia Pennsylvania. Under the manip-
ulations Of the CAMERON dominion Penn
sylyania is a railroad-ridden state. As long
aS the Republican party controlled the state
the railroads had things their own way.
But since the people took il into their heads
to elect a Democratic governor the railroads
have been checked in their oppressive ca
reer. This year there comes on state
election. and the only issue involved iii it is
IN relation to the combination recently
made between the Pennsylvania and VAN
DERBn.T systems. An attempt was made
