HAVING AN INELUENCE.

There are indications that public opin.
ion is having some effect upon the courts.
The San Francisco Post says: Judges, in
granting continuances in murder cases to
oblige attorneys, now deem it necessary
to make explanations and apologies, and
to give warnings that in the future re
quests for delay will be refused. So far
as it goes, this is gratifying. Possibly
the day may yet arrive when Judges will
really act upon the theory that courts
were not created solely for the benefit OIL
LAWYERS.

AFour-nIiIIion Strike.

FROM the Denver NeWs
The recent strikes of mineral in the Maid
of-Erin and Henrette mines at Leadville,
according to the reports of Leadville mining
men arriving in Denver, are the most i'm
pOrtant which have been made in the camp
since its palmY days. The two claims adj
Join, and although the shaft is on the Hen
riette, the discovery enhances alike the
value of the two mines. The work of sink
ing the shaft has been going on for months,
and the present body of mineral was struck
at depth of about 600 feet. The strike
is what is known "a blanket vein, and
from what is now known it is over an acre
i'm extent of its area and the depth is un-
known. The first contact with the rich ore
body was made ten days ago, and since that
time the work of sinking through the ore
body has been continued day and night
Yesterday word was received by Mr.. Peter
MeCOurt for Senator Tabor, who is now i'll
New York city, that the ore body had been
penetrated to q depth of thirty-fOur feet
and that there was no indication that the
bottom had been reached.
Theewners of the Henriette are d. ii.
Morgan,\ president of the Denver & Rio
Grande railway; ex-senator Chatfee, Gen.
j. C. Wilson of Denver; Hon. James O..
Blaine of Maine; and ex-senator Tabor.
The latter is the largest owner, holding a
three-eighths interest. Mr.. Blaine and Mr..
Wilson each own One-sixteenth and the
other gentlemen are equal owners.
The Maid-of-Erin is owned by ex-senator
Tabor, Major Dubois of Leadville, and
| MeSsrs. MOffatt and Chatfee OF Leadvllle.
They each own one-fourth interest.
''It's the biggest strike of recent years in
LeadvilIe," said Peter McCOurt to Trib-
Republican reporter last evening.
Careful estimates by competent men make
the value of the ore in sight foot up the
enormous sum of S4. 000 coo. 1t will net
$50 to the ton and as depth is gained in the
body of the ore it grows richer. There is
no telling where it will end. Telegraphic
adviees of the work done are received
daiIv and yesterday there were no indiea-
! tions of the bottom. The strike is the talk
of all the mining men in Leadville and il
will be of great value to the state. The re-
cent strike in the Silver mine is laid in the
shade by this one"
Senator Tabor is in New York city,
where he went on Friday. He said before
leaving that he would not take half a mill
ion dollars for his interest in the Henriett.
and Maid-of-Elin.
The Maid-of-Erin was in litigation TO
several years, but the suit wSs won by th'
present owners. The Henriette was for
merly paying mine, but recently it ha
not paid expenses. The expense Of sink
ing the shaft on the Henriette was born
equally by the two companies.

Tea-Maklng i'm Japan.

a japanese gentleman never intrusts the
making OF tea To his servants on company
occasions, and the fine art of the process
was fully shown us in the dainty manage
ment of every article of the service before
the host, saysa HI TO correspondent of the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat- The teapot was
a little jewel-like thing that could be set,
handle, spout and all, inside one OF the
common-siZed coffee cups that a foreigner
draws once or twice at breakfast. and the
cups were of fine cloisennee, with plain
enamelled lining. each no longer round than
the circle of tulips petals could inclOSe.
With them was a small pear-shaped
pitcher, a beautifully-wrought bronze tea
pot in which the boiling was brought, and
a LACQUER box containing the caddy of the
choicest leaves from the fine tea gardens of
the Uji district-a tea so rare and expen-
sive that none of it is ever exported or
known abroad. and only the wealthiest
japanese can afford 10 buy the precious
leaves. Our host takes an ivory scoop,
carved in the shape Of large tea leaf.
filled the little teapot full OF lOOsely-heaped
leaves, and then, having poured the hot
water into the pitcher that it might cool a
little, poured it into the teapot leaves.
The hot water had barely touched the
leaves in the little teapot that we were
watching so closely when the host began
pouring off a stream of pale straw-colored
tea into the little cups that were then
passed, each only half full of the infusion.
This tea was as delicate and fragrant as if
made of rose leaves, and the three sips in
each cup slipped so smoothly down ones
throat that no one dreamed of its being
strong enough 10 keep one awake for twelve

ON TRIAL FOR BRIBERY.
The ShaIer Trial Concluded and tho
Jury Ont.

New YORK, Jan. 27.-In the trial Of
Gen. Shaler for bribery to-day counsel for
defense moved to withdraw the indictment
and instruct the jury to acquit the accused
The court denied the motion. Counsel
then opened for the defense and called Gen.
Shaler He stated in reply to the question
whether he made any such agreement with
Monmouth b. Wilson as the latter testified
to on the stand yesterday, that such state-
mept was false. Witness never had any
conversation with Wilson in regard to ting
mortgages at the time he mentioned. Tho
witness denied in toto nearly every statet
ment made on the stand yesterday by VILE
son. He swore Wilson never came
TO his house and received from him tho
satisfaction pieces. On -examination
Gen. Shaler said he and Wilson were inti-
mate friends during 1884 and previous
wears. Wilson worked hard to secure the
sale of these pieces of property to the city.
Witness supposed Wilson was working fol
love and friendship. He did not believe
that Wilson would receive commission
for his work. The witness asserted that
he did not endeayor to get Col. Scott to
recommend the purchase of the Ninety
fourth street property. Witness had ne
claim to the mortgages and had paid no int
terest on them since Wilson acquired
them. The defense then rested their case.
Judge Barrett's charge was regarded witt
favor by both sides. He advised the jury
that the accused should receive the benetH
of his record and good character previously

To Resign To-day.

LONDON, Jan. 2S.-The Standard this
morning says that Lord Salisbury and Sir
Michael Hicks-Beach will announce in par
lament to-day the resign alton of the gov
eminent
LONDON, Jan. 27.-Mr. Gladstone had a
conference this afternoon with Lord Gran
vile in regard to the resumption of office
by the Liberals. The Marquis of Salisbury
will have an interview to-day with Mr.. w.
III. Smith, who was yesterday sworn in as
chief secretary of Ireland. The crisis eX-
cites but little interest among the general
public. Everything is quiet. and the com
mercial and financial markets are but
slightly weaker. The meeting of the cabi-
net to-day lasted an hour. The situation
was fully discussed. and it was resolved
that the ministers should at once resign.
The Marquis of Salisbury sent special
messenger to Osborne to inform the queen
of the decision of the cabinet. The Pail
Mall Gazette, commenting on the fact that
the official records show that Lord Harting-
ton and Mr.. GOschen, both Liberals, voted
with the government in the division last
night on Mr.. Ceilings land allotment
amendment, declares that their desertion of
the Liberals in the division completely dis
bars the queen from entrusting either of them
with the work of forming a new ministry.
The Gazette further says that Lord Hart
ingtOn may possibly retire to private life.
The Conservatives rely upon disSenSions in
the Liberal ranks TO prevent Mr.. Gladstone
from forming a durable cabinet. Mrs. Glad
stone took letter from Mr.. Gladstone tC

LONDON, Jan. 27.-It is stated this
morning that emissaries of Mr.. Gladstone
are at work among the Irish members
endeavoring to convince them that the
home-rule demand has had fair trial and
proved itself to be impossible of realiZa
ton at this time. and that by supporting
Mr.. Gladstone IN a policy of Irish
concession on the general prin-
ciples indicated by the Ceilings
amendment they will be acting justly
towards their constituents, and will enable
the Liberals to form strong government,
supported by English sentiment. and from
which Ireland may obtain valuable legisla-
tion. Mr.. Chamberlain, who was visibly
delighted with Mr.. Gladstones remarks on
the Ceilings amendment, was seen TO
engage Mr.. Panell in an earnest
conversation soon afterward. and it is said
his devotion to Liberalism has been sud-
denly ripened to enthusiasm by the pros
pect of his favorite land theories being al
lowed a chance of incorporation in the
Gladstone platform, and that he is doing his
utmost to bring Pamell into the attitude re-
ferred TO. 1t is thought by some that Mr..
Parnell will let the hOme-rule question take
a secondary place for the time at
least and support Gladstone i'm general
policy of reform by which he will command
the support of all his former Whig and
Radical allies and gain a sufficient number
of moderate Tory converts 10 give him a
majority of the present house, without re-
course TO another popular vote.

A CAUTIOUS Committee.
silver Discussed Informally, bur no
Action Taken.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27,-The house COM
mittee on coinage, weights and measures to-
day began the consideration of the silver
question. The whole subject was discussed
in an informal way, and while members
spoke more freely than heretofore they did
not state their views specifically, but in
very general terms. The discussion took a
very wide range, reference being made to
the French monetary system and our own
paper money. The following resolution
was introduced by Mr.. Landau during the
session of the committee:
Resolved, That it is the duty of the COM
mittee on coinage, weights and measures at
as early day as practicable TO report to the
house a bill looking to the free coinage OF
standard dollars.
Mr.. Scott of Pennsylvania thereupon in
troduced as substitute for this resolution
the following:
Resolved, As the sense of this committee
that the best interests of the country cannot
be promoted by any bill now before the COM
mittee looking to the free coinage OF silver.
Mr.. Holman also introduced resolution
on the subject, which reads as follows:
Resolved, That it is the sense of this COM
mittee that the laws regulating and providing
for the issue of gold and silver coinage
should be so amended as to provide for the
retirement of the same and for the issue OF
coin certificates in their stead.
No action was taken by the committee
upon any of these resolutions, nor did they
elicit distinct expression of views from
any of the members. 1t was resolved that
the question should be further discussed
and opinions sought from different persons
interested in the question until Feb. 10,
when the committee will proceed to con-
slider the distinct propositions now before 1t.

THE LOWER HOUSE
Considers Naval Affairs and Passes
the Southern Forfeiture Bill.


WASHINGTON, Jan. GA smile ran
through the house this morning when the
chaplain. in his opening prayer, returned
thanks that ''our silver and gold have been
multiplied" and the silver men pretended
to see in the fact that silver had been placed
before gold an indication that the religious
portion of the community was in favor Of a
double standard. The Hendricks memorial
resolution will come up next Tuesday. Mr..
Boutele rose to a question Of privilege to
state that the Norfolk navy yard was de-
stroyed by the rebels on the 10th and 11th
of May, 1862. The speaker held the
matter was not a question of privilege. Mr..
Viele reported from the committee on mill
tary affairs bill to aid in the erection of a
monument to Gen. Grant in New York city.
The house resumed the consideration of the
bill for the voluntary retirement of certain
naval officers. Mr.. Thomas said he would
move to recOmmit the bill because 1t was
not perfect and said:
A LITTLE BITTER
am not led TO this by the oratory of the
storm-tossed mariner from Tennessee Mr..
McMillinl, nor by the communistic doctrine
advocated by the gentleman from Texas Mr..
Reaganl. That gentleman bids for votes by
denouncing the heroes of the country, by de-
nominating them aristocrats and talking of
privileged classes and the down-trodden peo-
pie. This kind of talk will prove Intellectual,
for around those heroes the love of 5O,OOO,OOO
people has closed.
Mr.. Reagan-Does the gentleman intend 10
make that kind of a speech and then allow no
reply?
Mr.. Thomas-The gentleman has made his
speeches.
Mr.. Reagan-I have neither reflected upon
nor insulted any one.

declaring forfeited certain land grants TO
the states of Mississippi, Alabama and
Louisiana to aid in the construction OF rail-
roads. The committee on public lands
recommended an amendment, excepting
the Gulf S Ship Island road from the Oper-
alton of the bill. Mr.. Payson explained
that this road was exempted, so that there
would be no opposition to the bill. The
question being on the amendment Of the
committee excepting this road, it was re-
jected-yeas S3, nays IFS. Mr.. Holman
offered an amendment that the lands re-
stored to the public domain shall be subject

ions of the homestead law only. provided,
however, that if sales of any such lands
have heretofore been made by the United
States, such sales are hereby confirmed.
The amendment was adopted, and the bill
as amended passed. The house then ad-

THE GRANT MONUMENT.
i Fitting Tribute by the House MIL.
iIarY Committee.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The house COM
mittee on military affairs to-day instructed
Mr.. Viele to report favorably to the house
the bill introduced by Mr. Dowdney tor the
erection of a monument in New York city
to the memory of Gen. Grant. The bill
appropriates $500, 600 for the purpose of
erecting the monument on ground to be do
mated by the city. The president is author
lied TO appoint an officer of engineers of
the army and two commissioners to serve
without pay, who, with the executive COM
mittee of the Grant monument association
of New York, shall eXpend the money I'M
der the direction of the secretary Of war.
1t is proposed, however, that no part of the
money so appropriated shall be expended or
drawn from the treasury of the United
States until the sum of $3.50, 900 shall have
been subscribed and paid into the hands of
said Giant monument association, and is
available for the purpose of erecting the
monument.
THE MILITARY COMMITTEE SAYS:
The remains of this illustrious citizen and
soldier are entombed in a locality selected
in accordance with his dying request. The
immediate spot is one hallowed by the foot
steps of Washington and on battle ground
of the Revolution, occupying commanding
position of some I25 feet above the waters
of the Hudson river. The municipal authori-
ties of the city of New York, on learning of
the expressed wish of Gen. Grant, promptly
offered to his family the choice of any spot
they might select in any of their great public
parks. In accordance with this generous
offer the place was selected which now con-
tains his remains. A nation mourned at his
grave, the highest representatives OF the ma
ton participated in the obsequies, millions of
Americans have visited the tomb and an al
most endless procession are still visiting 1t.
For years to come it will be a Mecca for all
who love their country and all who venerate
the greatness and Christian magnanimity of
this distinguished soldier and statesman.
Regarding the erection of a memorial on this
hallowed spot as a truly national project, in
which all Americans should be allowed to
unite, we recommend the passage of the bill.

The six.Day Race i'm minneapolis.

The third day in the great siX-day bicycle
tournament began promptly at 1880 yes
terday morning. The riders all looked
fresh, with the exception of Shaw. who is
badly chafed. OF the number WOOdside
seemed the freshest. He started out at an
ordinary speed. and SchOck, the Chicago
boy. close upon him. After warming up
WOodside spurted, but SchOck struggled
away and kept at convenient distance.
In the afternoon WOOdside forged ahead
and gained nine laps. but when he left the
track SehOck gave burst of speed which
soon more than gave him the advantage he
had held at the beginning of the day. and
later he had placed barrier of fifteen long
miles between the two. The others re-
mained relatively as the preceding day.
Snyder, the Faribault boy, is perhaps the
most graceful rider of the lot. he works
pluckily and steadily away, and is covering
a good many miles. Indeed, there are
many who incline to the opinion that he
will have at least second place in the race
at the end.
Hardwick did better work yesterday. He
rode steadily away, and
FREQUENTLY sPURTED.
Schock Is all ''sand." He cannot show
as much speed, perhaps, as the others, but
he is a stayer, scarcely ever leaving the
track. By the way, he is an all-around
athlete. When at home he works in res
taurant, but in any sporting event he Is
ready to enter, and without training, too,
whether 1t be bicycle, skating or pedes-
trian race, a wrestling match or a sparring
contest.
Every mile that was made yesterday sig
nailed another broken record SchOck, and
the indications are that he will come in the
vicinity of ], 900 miles at the close of the
race.
During the evening Snyder rose easily,
and seemed to make no effort to crowd
Woodside His object appeared to be to
keep Hardwick so far behind that he could
have no possible show to close up the gap.
In the afternoon Hardwick took a bad
''header." but fortunately was only tenn
porarily injured, and he fell again in the
evening.

as trainer for Schock, and the latter rides

At the close of the third day Schock had
