Sunday, by morning paper, the Ar6eiter
ZcitUng, organ of the Anarchists, prints the
following to-day:
Right here it may be plainly said that
we consider the mountaineering justified
it was a necessary act. The police COM
mitted high treason inattempting to break
mp in q violent fashion a peaceful meeting
of citizens. 1t is known that the police

of the right of assembly, of free speech,

Another Rash Fool Jumps From the
brooklyn Bridge-He Escapes.
NEW YORK, December 4.-AnOther
Fourth ward man to-day achieved fame by
leaping from the Brooklyn Bridge into the
East River. The affair wa kept secret
and the facts did not leak ont until late in
the afternoon. =
Michael J. Hess, alaborer, was in a So
loon on Thursday night with q party of
friends. The party had been drinking
heavily, and the bridge-iumpiuc feats OF
BrOdie. Donovan and Others came up in
conversation. One of the crowd offered to
bet So that Hess would not dare TO make
the leap. Hess took up the bet at once.
On Friday when he was sober Hess was
reminded of his bet. Arrangements were
at once made to carry it out. This morn
ing ut $50 Hess mounted the truck and
started overthe bridge from the New York
side. As the truck passed the New York
side about 8 O'Clock a. III. Hess jumped
of mounted the ratings and jumped of.
His body stiffened out aud shot down,
striking the water with n splash which
threw water ten feet in the air. In n few
seconds Hess rose to the surface and was
picked mp by friends who were waiting in
a boat. He was conscious. He was
tOwed ashore, carried to a saloon and
stimulants poured down his throat.
He revived from the shock and said that
in the period between leaving the bridge
and striking the water he was not con-
sciOus. Hess left the saloon and walked
through the streets in his wet clothes,
drinking whisky until he reached home.
He. is doing well.

A GREAT FLOUR SYNDICATE.
The scheme of Minneapolis Millers to Con
troll the Price of Flour.


MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, December L.
The millers of Minneapolis are discussing
a stupendous scheme to consolidate all the
mills under one management. 1t Is q
matter which has been talked of more or
less for the pIst three years, but lately 1t
has been considered seriously. Active
steps have been taken, which are expected
to result in consolidation. The scheme
possesses many advantages. The cost OF
buying wheat and selling flour would o
course amount to very little. Such acOm-
binatiOn would make rs much or rs little
flour rs desired, and it wOuld control such
product rs it placed upon the market.
Its effect on trade would be enormous,
and it would he an institution rs powerful
aS the Standard Oil Company. There are,
however, many difficulties to overcome in
forming the company, among which are
the arriving at the proper valuation OF
property, value OF brands, trade, etc. II
the combination was formed the company
would have a capital OF $4,000, 900. 1t
would take in all the mills except the
Washburn mills which, under the will Of
the late Governor WaShburn, cannot be
come u party to such an organization. At
a meeting OF the millers held several days
ago, q committee was appointed to consider
and report on 4 feasible plan for making
the consolidation. The committee has not
yet made a report.

THE CAMPBELL DIVORCE
The story Of the Hospital Nurse Declared
False by Lord Colin.

raise by Ioru Conn.
LONDON, December 4.-On the opening
of the Campbell divorce case to-day, Mr..
Finlay, defendants counsel, stated that
Lord Colin Campbell believed that the
testimony of Amy Wright, the nurse, that
Lady Colin was suffering from disease ut
the time of her marriage, was false.
Baker, a groom in the employ of Sir
Charles Foster, deposed that in June and
July, 1SS3, he saw Lady Colin several
times entering the Duke of MarlbOrough's
house. Margaret Low, y hOuSemaid in
the service of the Duke of Argyll, testified
to the ~lateness of Lady Collins return
home from her visits to the Duke of MARI
borough.
A number of other witnesses were then
called to testify to the Duke of MarlbOr-
ough's visits to Lady Colin, when Justice
Butt begged council not TO prolong the
case by the production of unnecessary evil
dence. at the present rate the hearing
of the testimony will last a month, said
the Justice.
Davis, a travelling servant, testified that
he watched Lady Campbell in Paris, and
saw her at several hotels where she re-
ceivcd visits from the Duke of Marlbor-
Ough. The hearing was then adjourned.

CLEVELAND, December A sensation
was caused in local political circles to-day
the discharge of William Dorsey, late
and Democratic candidate for Con-
greSs in the Twentieth district, from his
position rs heater in the Union Rolling
Mill. Dorsey's nomination last summer
was very distasteful to the managers OF
the company, and during the campaign
one of them Said:-'It would create 4 big
boom for William Dorsey if we should dis
charge him now, hut when this election is
over he'll 90" Last Monday Mr.. Dorsey
was taken i'll, and he had one of his help
ers take charge of his furnace. That after
o he received a letter from the Super,
intendent notifying him that his services
were no longer required.
1t is likely that the Amalgamated AsSo-
citation, of which Mr.. Dorsey is a member,
will take up the matter. At the last
election Dorsey cut down the Republican
majority in the Twentieth district from
1000 to 500.

District Attorney Benton May Have His
Head Cut on Again.
WASHINGTON, December 4.-PreSident
Cleveland has been so busy that he had
not heard until this afternoon of the letter
of w. J. Sullivan, of Missouri, to eN-DiS-
trict Attorney Benton, Of Missouri, in
which Benton held up the President rs q
%humbugging civil service reiormer, an ig-
noramus in information about the great
! West, and the willing tool of the money
sharks and vampires of Wall street who
are engaged in sucking the blood Of the
honest yeOmanry of the West"
1t should surprise no one, least of all
Col. Benton, to learn that the knowledge
that such Il speech, full Of cOntemptuOuS
references and filings, casting doubts at
once upon the intelligence and honesty of
the President, should have struck the
President ~unfavOrably. lie had acted up
on Col. BentOn's letter of explanation, in
which he accounted for the use of the time
supposed to belong to the Government
very satisfactorily, and had reinstated him
with the impression that he was frank,
fair, and had been n friendly supporter OF
the Administration. If the speech printed
is correct or even substantially accurate
representation of the views that Col. Ben
ton felt authorized to express, it is a gross
Misrepresentation of the Sincercst cOnvic-
tons of the President, and rs such rs an
effort that would Justify his second sus-
pension.
Now that the President has heard Col.
BentOn's opinion of the Chief Magistrate
and his policy, it is probable there will be
an attempt made to find ont whether his
speeches delivered during the campaign
were generally or even frequently stuffed
with such singing ridiculc and abuse.
Colonel Benton will find nothing in the
annual message of the President TO Justify
his ignorant assertion that civil service
reform is "humbuggery,' or that there has
been any greater disposition on the part of
| the President to surrender TO the vampires
of Wall street han there is to surrender
to the vampires of Eads, of Missouri,
who are beating at all the doors of the
Treasury for money to build q private rail,
way across the lSthmusO of Tehuantepec, OF
to the ''leeches," who thirst for an appro-
p~riation with which to build the Henne,
pin canal.
Col. Benton appears to have humbugged
the president in to regarding him as a
friend, and he may live TO learn that, in
the words of his own speech, ''hc is a mar
of iron nerves and will not feebly consent
to have his motives or his honesty of Dur'
pose questioned by a subordinate even OF
his own party.

went to his office about IL o'clock. Find
ing the door open, he entered and was
grabbed by three men who, with presented
pistols, marched him to the safe, and told
him not to open his mouth or they would
blow out his brains. Miller, who was I'M
armed, managed to get out through a win
dow, while they were engaged at the safe,
and gave the alarm. The robbers were
gone when the police and citizens reached
the store. They took with them several
new overcoats and numerous little articles.
Two holes about three inches deep were
found in the safe door. The same parties
entered the store of the firm of Bender &

BEN BUTLER A DEFENDANT.
Charged with Defrauding the Soldiers
Home of $4,000.

Charged with Defrauding the Soldiers
Home OF $4,000.
RosToN. Dec. 4.-General Butler is il
court. Not as q lawyer, his usual role
but as defendant in a big suit brought BY
the United States charging him with de
frauding the National Soldiers Home on
of SIS, O0O.
The case, which has occupied the atten
ton of the courts for several years, came
I'D before Judge Carpenter, Of the United
States Court, to-day.
The declaration sets forth that the de
PENDANT owes the plaintiff the sum OF $40,
600 and interest from November 70, 1873,
some $40, 900, which he received while
acting rs Treasurer of the Home, u has
not accounted for it. The plaintiff has
some six different places of business, the
principal one being at Hartford, Conn.,,
and alleges that from May, 1876, to May,
1882, the defendant was the treasurer
that on May &, 1879, he loaned General
Tilton, the assistant treasurer of the East
ern branch at TOgus, Me-, the sum Of
SIS, 900 for the general purposes OF the
Home, and that on November 20, 1879,
the sum was returned by General Tilton
to the defendant, who failed to make any
entry of the same on the books and did
make a charge Of the loan.
The defendant sets up payment and sat
isfactiOn. The accounts of General Butler
and General Tilton since the time of the
alleged payment of the money TO the de-
PENDANT have been audited and allowed.
The plaintiff was represented by eX-United
States District attorney George +. Sanger
and Mr.. Prentiss Cummings, the defend
ant appearing pro sc, associated with him
being his law partner, Mr.. Frank l.. Wash
burn, and f. NJ. johnson.
Mr.. Cummings opened the case. He
claimed that when General Buffers books
were closed he found Sl5, 900 more on the
books than his books showed, and that
that sum was never accounted for by hlm.
General TiltOn and GeneralW w. b. Frank
lin testified to the loan rs set forth In the
complaint. Their evidence brought out
no new points.
General Butler conducted the cross-ex-
animation, nOdding his head and winking
to the jury when Il sharp question was
asked.
Augustus Thomas, of Messrs. Pittler
Il Thomas, of Philadelphia, said he fur
nished shoes for the Home. On October
IL, 1879, they received a draft form Cen
eral Butler for sass as a voucher for n
quantity of clothing, us by an agreement
ut Washington, and in two or three days
transferred that draft by mail, after in
dorsing it, to General TiltOn in Tew NOrk.
John Burke, boOk-keeper at ToguS, said
that on May II, 1879, he received Sl5,OO
from General Butler on account of the
shoe shop, which was used in purchasing
leather and was afterwards paid back to
General Butler.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Burke's teSti-
mOmOny General Butter moved that the
case be taken from the jury and dismissed
for wantO evidence.
This motion was Over-ruled by Judge
Carpenter, and General Butler will take
the stand in his own defense tomorrow
morning.
