BALTIMORE HERALD.

The railway coach in which Miss Minnie
Palmer was travelling into Belfast on Sun
day night, was fred into by the mob. The
balls flew thick and fast for minute or
two, and one came within an inch of the
little soubrette's tip tilted nose. The
amount of pretty, coquettish and tantiliz-
ing stage glances, dances, songs and gen
eral histrionic fip-haps that would have
been lost to the world if that bullet had
come an inch and a quarter closer is
something fearful to contemplate.

1t is fair to presume that the United
States can thrash China in case that des-
potic government cares, as is intimated,
to provoke an issue. But it is hardly
probable that the cry of "On to China
will prove as popular as son to Mexico"
A Chinese war means sea voyage and all
the horrors involved. But after all it
would be great thing for nation of
dyspeptics. war with China as cure
for dyspepsia might prove national
blessing

a trade, but has always steadily aimed at
uniting into a single body all the laboring
people of America, has steadily gained In
membership ana in strength, and has
grown more conservative as it has grown
powerful, until to-day it stands without a
peer in history as compact society of
labor with definite aims. 1t refuses to be
or to become a political society. 1t re-
fuses to permit trades unions of any sort
to dominate its counsels or use its author
ity. 1t proposes, in the words of its gen.
eral master workman, 'the judicious use
of the ballot" If it finds that legislator
is opposed to its projects of law for the
wellbeing of labor, it will strike down that
legislator without reference to his party
colors. 1t is not favorable to strikes and
boycotts, although Powderly says it will
resort to them in case of necessity. In
deed, he seems to be justified in the state
ment he makes that few strikes have oc-
Cured since the Cleveland convention de-
clared against them and placed restric-
tions on them.
Nevertheless, while granting Powderly's
assertion that it will be an American con-
gress in the best sense, we cannot avoid
some fear lest it will be too large to hold
thoroughly together. 1t will be crucial
test for the organization. There we're
rumors of rings and combinations in the
Cleveland convention; the danger of them
in the Richmond convention will be
greater far. The politicians know the
uses to which they could put this magnifi-
cent organization if they could obtain
the mastery of it. So do the various
trades unions. There has already been
considerable friction between the trades
unions and the knights. Powderly says
that so long as he is the head he will not
allow any other organization to use the
Knights of Labor. He says he will not
put single motion to the great conven-
ton until he is sure that it is understood.
A committee is now in session at Phila
delphia revising the laws and constitution
of the order. Its work will be submitted
to the convention.

Little remains to be added to the trib-
utes paid to the memory of the brave and
patriotic De Kalb at the ceremonies in the
state capital yesterday. 1t was brilliant
occasion, and the Masonic and military
features of the pageant were in keeping
with the career of the hero in whose honor
the celebration took place.
There is one point on which the state of
Maryland may fairly congratulate itself.
The statue which was unveiled yesterday
is not only an exceptionally fine work of
art, but it was produced by an American
artist, MaryIander and Baltimorean.
Good statues are rare, and this effort of
Mr.. Ephraim Keyser would be esteemed
in any country which delights to perpetu-
ate the memory of its heroes with figures
of bronze.
There is one element in the celebration
which is of happy augury in the future of
MARYLAND and of America. This is the
enthusiasm with which adopted citizens
of German descent Joined with those of
purely American birth in doing honor to
soldier who, as the memorial stone at
Camden, s. c., truly declares, was "by
birth German, but by principle citi-
zen of the world" De Kalb will linger
imperishably in the minds of Maryland
ers as long as one brick of the old state
house at Annapolis remains, and as long
as men are proud TO tell of the brave for
eigner who, with the Marylanders, Small
wood and Gist, led the Maryland brigade
and the Delaware line into the thickest of
the fight.

Mr.. Jim Blaine is preparing to make a
strong fight for the presidency. He is re-
ported as having ordered shipped to him
wagon load of public documents from
Washington; out of which he expects to
make effective material for use in the
Maine campaign. He is said to be in good
health and burning with a desire to so
direct his speeches as to arrest the atten-
ton of the entire country and check the
tendency of the masses to go over to the
Cleveland standard. 1t is given out by
his friends that the state department will
receive large share of his attention, and
that when he gets through with Mr..
Bayard that gentleman will feel like re
firing to private life. In regard to this
point Mr.. Blaine may wish in the sweet
by and by that he had kept silent. He is
known to have been the greatest mischief
maker ever at the head of the state de-
partment with the least resources of al
laying the trouble his precipltancy Gre
ated. If he addresses himself to this sub
ject in his speeches perhaps Mr.. Blaine
will feel like crawling in hole and pull
ing the hole in after him when the papers
have had their shy at him. In some parts
of the west the people build cyclone eel
lars as precaution against danger Mr..
Blaine would probably find double deck
cyclone cellar insufficient to shield him
from the consequences that would result
from ungenerous attacks upon the only
man who has tried in the right manner
for twenty-five years to uphold American
honor abroad

We appeal to the democrats of Missouri
in convention assembled to give us full,
fair and frank expression in behalf of
civil service f.form. They can surely go
as far on this subject as their national
convention, sitting in st. Louis ten years
ago, went In the platform upon which Mr..
Tilden was nominated. The Tilden reso-
written, as is well known, by Mr..
Tilden himself-is as follows: "Reform
is necessary in the civil service. Expert
ence proves that efficient, economical con-
duct of the government business is not
possible if its civil service be subject to
change at every election, be prize fought
for at the ballot box, be brief reward of
party zeal instead of posts of honor as
signed for proved competency and held
for fidelity in the public employ"

ST. LOUIS GLoBE-DEMocRAT.

Our correspondent in South Carolina
calls attention to the remarkable fact that
the $1,000 white voters of that state are
represented by six congressman, while the
$4,000 colored voters of the state have
only one member to speak and vote for
them. SO long as such a condition of
things exists in mockery of the princi-
pies of free and just government, it is
idle to say that the mission of the repub-
lican party is completed.

WASHINGTON, October 27.-Ever since
the issue OF President veland's proc
lamation restoring diScrimins ting du-
ties on imports under the Spanish flag,
negotiations have been in progress be-
tween the governments Of Spain and
the United States looking To an sd
iustment Cf the points in dispute. AL
though no formal announcement has
yet been made of the resul /, it Is learned
that the Spanish government is ready
to accept temporarily the interpreta-
ton placed upon the treaty by the
United states and put into the thfrd
column of duties as set out IN
the treaty, all imports into
the Spanish West Indies unoer
the American flag. On the other
hand the proclamation Teimposlng the
discriminating duties on imports under
the Spanish flags, will be withdrawn by
hePrtsident. AlthOughth the arrangement
will be of a temporary character, With
the ostensible object OF atfording al OPP
portunity for the negotiation OF a sup
Elemental treaty right, which shall fully
define and construct the points that
have fed to the controversy, yet 1t
believed that an agreement can be
reached by the two governments thai
will obYiate the necessity for the ratitl-
cation of new treaty.

Disastrous Fire.

CLEVELAND. Ohio, October 27.-The
magnificent stone building of the Case
School CT Applied Science, at the East
End, completed and opened one year
ago. at a cost of $500, 900, burned at an
early hoIr this morning. The dis
coYery of 6e fire shortly after 2 o'clock
was followed by an explosion in the
Chemical La e-atory, which blew out q
portion of the walls. The flames then
soon made short work of the
fine structure. The building was
four stories in height and buiIt
Of sandstone, It was furnished with
al the latest appliances for the demon
stratIon of science. The total loss is
estimated at S200, 900. The physiological
and chemical apparatus and geological
collections were among the finest in the
country, The chemical appliances were
valued at $50, 900. 1t is thought that
the building and contents were insured
for about SIS, 900. There were from
fifty to sixty students. The Case school
was built with money left By the late
Leonard Case, the Cleveland millionaire
aud phllanthropist.

The Episcopal Convention.

CHICAGO, October IA message was
received this morning by the General
Convention of the Protestant Episcopal
Church for the House of Bishops, de-
claring that in the judgement of the
Bishops the use of unfermented
juice of the grape In the sacrament is
not warranted by the example of our
Lord, and was an unauthorized depar-
ture from the practice of the Catholic
Church, and that the mixing of water
with wine was not Objectionable, pro-
Vided it be net done Enthusiastically
until authorized by change of the ru-
brio. The message did not require any
action by the deputies. A resolution
was adopted to appoint q committee
TO present plan for making notifca-
ton to d eses of the changes adopted
in the prayer book. A resolution was
adopted providing for committee of
three bishops, three clericals and three
'laymen to whom should be recommitted
the whole subject of marriage and
divorce, to report thereon to the next
general convention, on the second day
thereof. The house then resumed con
sIderation of the proposed amendment
to the book OF common prayer.

Court against the directors of the road

c. g. Landon, N. E. Ingalls,, Thomas

Morris, S. J. Brosdwall, John s. Ken
nedy, w. F. Reynolds and Theodore
Cook, charging them with con-
spiraCy, in fraudulently depressing
the assets of the road and
forcing the foreclosure sale, so that
they could obtain control of the road
at little cost by buyers in stock. The
complaint asks that the property which
they have thus obtained be held in
trust for the stockholders. Foster
claims that Governor Hoadley, of Ohio,
procured the foreclosure sale, as coun-
sci, and it is further alleged that he was
one of the conspirators.G To day, Judge
DOnohue, in chambers, heard the areu.
ment upon the motionsto vscate the
order of examination of the directors,
on the ground that the plaintiff had
already sufficient facts on which to
form the complaint. The decision was

ST. LOUIS, October 27.-No new devc-
lopments IN the Adams, Express rob
berry Damsel was seen at his Office this
morning and said he gave the Associated
Press all of the facts in the case as far
as they had come to his knowledge
yesterday, and absolutely nothing new
has turned up since. In regard to the
report that Messenger Frothingham had
made a confession, he stated that there
was no truth in 1t; that they were work
ing on the theory that the messengers
story was true; that the latter had not
been arrested nor placed under sur
veillanee, but of his own acc I'D was in
constant communication with the
officers of the company and detectives
who have the case in hand, and is aiding
them as much as he is able in their at
tempt to discover the whereabouts and
identity of the robber.
rockingham was seen at the COM
pany's Office this morning by a reporter,
to whom he told the story of the rob
berry. He made his statement in a
frank, straightforward manner, with
out the slightest hint at embarrassment
or confusion. He said that he was well
aware that circumstantial evidence
pointed strongly t. his being an aces
sorry to the robbery, but that he had
nothing to conceal and was confident
the result OF the investigation would
clear him of all suspicion. The only
point in the messengers statement
which was not given out yesterday
was that the robber told Frothingham
that he had an accomplice on the train,
who, if he 1.-THE robbery was unable to
carry out his plans unaided, would
come to his assistance.
