says: TIE only real benefit OF this

Independent Political Action to be

New YORK, August 17th.-A. M-The

The next conference will be held Thurs

five delegates, and it is expected that
enough other delegates will take the same
action as to make ii useless TO nominate

The success of the parade on September

tions have responded to the invitation of
Typographical Union, No. 6, to meet Satur-

Money and Business.

New YORK, August 16th.-The Tibunes
editorial on money and business says ::
Since the adjournment of Congress there
has been but one unfavorable symptom.
Business is large, and the better exchanges
show an increase of nearly 25 per cent. at
New York, in spite of the great decline in
stock transactions, and outside of New
York there is an increase of II per cent.
The grain movement is the largest ever
known. Railroad earnings show a general
and satisfactory increase. The imports are
large, but the increase in exports has of
late been much greater. Speculation thus
far has failed to block the channels of legit-
innate trade

The Cry for War with Mexico a Selfish
Business.

NEW YORK, August 10th. - Colonel
Church, of the Aymy and Nary Journal, is
quoted as saying that he knows there are
at this moment powerful influences at
work in Mexico, as well as in this country,
to bring about collision between the two
republics, in order to promote variety of
selfish business enterprises. There are
mining, ranch, cattle and other interests in
Mexico, be says, which would like to in
augurate bostilities so that the United
States could acquire four northern States
of that country, in expectation that annex
alton would add immensely to the value
of the material agricultural and railway
properties. As there are insuperable diff
-culties in the way of acquiring that terri
tory by negotiation or purchase, these con-
spirators favor war as the speediest and
simplest means of accomplishing their pur-
nose

The Cutting Matter.

Ell PAso, August 16th.-There are no
new developments in the Cutting matter
to-day, although the usual number of I'M
reliable rumors have been manufactured.
One of these rumors is that large bodies of
Mexican troops are streaming into Chi
huahua. There is, no doubt, nothing in it.
The coming of Special Agent Sedgwick is
impatiently waited Oh both sides. He will
spend few days in Paso del Norte, and
then go on to chihuahua, where he will
spend at least week. Then, if he should
conclude to so to the City of Mexico, he
would remain on his trip at least two
weeks longer. The Mexicans have kept
very stiff upper lip so far, and it looks as
though they would like to get out of the
Cutting business if they could do so with
out squarely backing down. The tone Of
The daily papers in the City of Mexico indi-
cate this. They will probably manage this
by the Supreme Court of chihuahua re.
versing the decision of the lower Court at
Paso del Norte, and ordering the release of
the prisoner. Then would come Cuttings
claim for heavy damages.

An American Borgia-The Cutting

Light Hop Crop.
ESPECIAL DIsrArcHEs TO THE nEooRD-UN1oN.I
DOMESTIC NEWS.


New York, August 16th.-The Sun s
Boston special says: The marvellous cum
ming of Mrs. Robinson, the Somerville
Borgia, is illustrated by the fact that in no
case was poison administered when the
victim was in perfect health. She usually
waited until he or she had some little sick
ness, then her process of slow poisoning
would begin. Her son, who died on We'd
nesday, met with an accident, and it was
necessary to have doctor. She then be-
gan her work upon him, but in his case
she administered heavier doses of arsenic
than TO any of her other victims She
must have given others, in the opinion OF
the doctors who attended them, small
dose. She always introduced poison at
the latter end of some sickness of her
several victims. This is probably an
explanation of her success in deceiving
a dozen or more physicians, until her vic
tins numbered half score. In each case
the patient manifested some symptoms
which could not possibly be attributed to
poison. Hence the sickness and death
could only be described as battling and
mysterious, with the ground for suspicion
so light as not to warrant basing thereon a
charge of murder. Then by employing
new physicians in each case, the coinci-
dence of more than one death with the
same suspicious features in common was
avoided. Thus she was able, with some
few symptoms of natural disease, in COM
plication with the effects of poison, to de-
ceive several really skillful physicians. She
might have succeeded in the case of her
son William, had she not hastened the
murderOus process by giving larger doses.
Boston, August 1Gth.-Oficers are look
ing for one DR.. G. C. Beers, an irregular
practitioner having a large practice at
South End. Beers is said to have been a
frequent visitor at the house of Mrs. Sarah
J. Robinson, the alleged Somerville poi
soner, for years, and is suspected of having
assisted her in her operations. He has not
been found as yet. A medical examiner
has been granted permission to exhume
the bodies of the various members of the
family of Mrs. Robinson, it being alleged
that they died from the administration of
poison at her hands. 1t is learned that
MIS-. Robinson intended, in company with
4 certain Boston woman, to sail for Europe
next Friday or Saturday on pleasure trip
leaving her children behind. 1t is pre-
sumed that for the funds to pay her ex-
penses she relied upon the life insurance
money which would have accrued to her
upon the death of her son Willie, buried
yesterday, had not her arrest on the charge
of wholesale poisoning interfered with its
collection. The cases of both Mrs. Robin
son and Mr.. Smith viii come up on
Wednesday.

Increase of the Hours of Labor.

New YORK, August 16th.-A new time
table, it is said, has been prepared by the
Third Avenue Railroad, which goes into
effect to-day. 1t is not exactly a surprise to
the men, who have been expecting it, and
it is more than likely they will resist the
effort to increase their working hours. At
present twelve hours constitute Gay IS works
This is according to the agreement which
the company made with the drivers and
conductors who took the place of the
strikers. The new schedule increases the
working hours from thirty minutes to an
hour all round, and is regarded as the first
step toward returning to the old sixteen
hour timetable. Recently the company
tried to reduce the wages of the drivers, but
the men made such q determined stand
that the company had reason to suspect the
existence of strong organization, and the
reduction was not messed

600 bales of hops in the county of Otsego

The Trial of the Bomb-Throwers.

CHICAGO. August 16th.-The closing week
of the great Anarchist trial opened this
morning. 1t is insufferably hot, with
scarcely breath of fresh air in the Court
room. Every inch of space within the four
walls is occtpied by spectators. Foster re-
sumed his speech this morning by declar-
ing that he was not there to defend anarchy
When he expressed that sentiment on
Saturday he expressed the sentiment of his
associates. The verdict ought not to be
based upon the statements of any counsel.
This assertion was apparently made with
the view of undoing the effect of statements
made by Solomon in his opening. AS to
Spies and his utterance, Foster quoted the
OLD adage that "a barking dog never bites"
Spies never concealed his sentiments. They
were made public time and again through
the press. The man was talkative, that
couldn't be disputed. There must be some
thing in the construction of the mans
brain which made him give utterance to
this wild talk. The man loved notoriety,
and that was all.
