lrove many Of the former advocates OF

j 'st held. We allude to the so-calleI d's
trict feature Of the law There are
many persons who are opposed to IN
temperance, and in favor Of restricting
the sale Of liquor in the county. And
in this they are prompted BY the k'ndest
motives towards their fcIlow county
men. But they are opposed to unfair
ness aud injustice. They hold that the
sale of liquor in the county is an injury
to majority of our people in that me
shops in which liquor is sold tempt and
lead men into idlcness and other wees,
and necessarily make them neglect their
homes and families. That large ma
jorlty are thus injured, while very
small minority, namely the Wblskey deal

adoption Of any law that would ald IN

that end, unless adopted by the whole

profound sympathy In his Illness and
suffering and their congratulations
that his life had been spared through
great peril.
That the people OF our city, in com.
mon with their fellow-citIzens
throughout the land, remember with
pride the humanity that marked his
military successes, the good faith
and that undertaking purpose
and resolution with which
he illustrated the American character;
and, bearing In mind the important
station he has borne as q public SER
want, they trust that there may be
vouchsafed to him restoration TO
health and the peaceful and happy
years Of green old age.
Gen. A. w. Baker, Confederate,
said that Gen. Grant conquered
the South by force OF arms, and after.
wards its hearts by splendid magma
nimity TO Lee at Appomattox.
Later, when partisan bitterness pro-
posed bitter reprisals upon the South
ern leaders, Gen. Grant stood by the
terms OF the surrender, and again cap
tured his former enemies.
The speakers alterpated the Federal
and Confederate and the former em-
phasized the fact that the Union was
indeed restored, and most splendid
testimonial to II was this meeting.
DR.. Eaton, Confederate, said that the
Union had long been restored, but that
such meetings as this perfected 1t. He
said that Gen. Grant was typical
American in all but his silence.
In the opinion OF the speaker he
won his way by stern persistence,
fighting 1t out on a given line ''if 1t
took al summer
A number of other prominent men
spoke in the same vein, and nc word
was spoken which did not
breathe warm, unfaltering de.
votion to the Union and constitution.
AS was said by Confederate, it was
such meeting as could not have been
held before the war.
The resolutions were adopted by a
unanimous rising vote, and the pro.
ceedings were ordered printed and
sent to Gen Grant.
The benediction and touching
prayer for Gen. Grant and his family
closed the proceedings.

American Prestige Destroyed by
Withdrawal of American Troops,
WHY THE AMERICAN FORCES WERE
WITHDRAWN.
WASHINGTON, April 27.-Admirsl
Jouett and Commander McCalls have
informed the navy department that
the American forces were withdrawn
from Panama yesterday because of
promises made by the rebel Aizpuru
that he would not interfere with
American interests in that city and
that he would not erect barIicades in
the streets. The American troops
were marched short distance from
the city to the Panama railroad COM
pany's property, where they we're
stationed at the time the kilograms
were sent to Washington.
A BLOODY BATTLE AvERrED.
PANAMA, April 2T-There is no
doubt Ia the public mind here but
that the safety of the city is due to the
prompt action of Commander Nc
Gala in taking charge of the city at q
time when formidable barbados were
being erected and preparations on q
large scale were going on to defend the
city against the national tr1oIs when
they should arrive. Becaus. of these
preparations no doubt exists but that
immense loss of life and property
would have taken place. The moral
effect Of the occupation by the United
States troops has been very great. Not
| a shot has been heard in the city since
they withdrew, but order and legit-
innate authority are noticeable and es-
tabliehed. The consequences OF any
further v ithdrawsl cannot be calcu-
lated.
! AMERICAN PRESTIGE DESTROYED.
NEW York, April 27.-A dispatch
from Pansma To the Tribune dated
April 20 gays: The American troops
under Commander McCalla began Ia
withdraw from the city last night,
under an agreement with Aizpuru
aud the French consul. The evacua-
ton of the city destroys American
prestige here. There has been wild
rejoicing among the Insurgents and
the sympathisers with them, and
property owners anticipate serious
4 trouble.
The Americans are called towards.
aud threats are heard on every side.
The American tro0ps were with
drawn TO the Panama railroad station.
Gen. Aizpuru has guaranteed to pre-.
serve order ia the city, but the insur-
gents have again begun the W ork OF
6arrioading the streets.

VICTIMS OF AN AVALANCHE
Eleven Bodies Recovered from the
Colorado Snow. Slide.

DENVER, COL, April 27.-The rescu-
ing party which left Lesdville yester-
day NOR ming for the scene of the ter
rible calamity at the Homestake mine
reached there at o'clock. Several
excavations were made before
the cabins could be located.
The first one found contained the
provisions, etc. No bodies were found
here. The bunk house was mex reached
where eleven bodies were found. One
body stood erect with the head thrown
forward, as if listening, the whole po-
sition indicating apprehension.
Near him lay one OF his comrades on
bunk, face downward, with his arms
crossed under his head.
Several logs lay on his body.
Three bodies were und in an upper
bunk clasped in each others arms, and
so strongly lnterlocked as to require
the force OF six men to separate them.
One man was found beside his bunk
In an attitude Of prayer.
In another part of the cabin were
two bodies crushed between fallen
timbers.
The other bodies were found lying
above the cabin as If thrown from the
hunks by the shock. No doubt death
was caused by suffocation in
nearly every case. A clock and
watch were found which had
stopped precisely at $3.50. From
the letters and papers found it is
believed that the slide occurred about
the Goth Of February. The report that
some OF the men had been seen within
fortnight proved to be without foun-
dalton. The bodies were taken to
Leadville. The victims are:

Its report TO be presented In open ses.

witness out of the one hundred exam
