REVIEW


New YORK. December 29.--London COM
munication has been practically cut off again
to-day. and the bear faction, anticipating
such a state of affairs, were very industrious
in spreading reports as To the stringency OF
money in London for the settlement. The
better class of foreign houses, however, were
inclined to think that the tightness was not
more than is usually experienced at the close
of the year. and the advance in exchange
here to-day will doubtless help to make easier
rates. The market here has ruled firm all
day, with better class of buyers and more
confidence than we have seen for the past
fortnight
We believe that if the bull party are con-
tent to work quietly and avoid any undue
speculation in outside stocks. they are in
control and may continue so for some time:
The Interstate bill has been pretty well
exposed and discounted, and money prom
ises to be more plentiful. The close was
strong

A TERRIBLE DOMESTIC TRAGEDY.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2S.-Gottlieb Lentz. a

wifes throat with razor this evening" and
then shot himself with revolver. both dying in
stantly. The tragedy was the result Of jealousy
Or ths part Of the husband. The couple had
been married thirty years and had family of
three girls and two boys Lentz drank heavily,
and waen under the influence of liquor became
very abusive to his wife. To-day ne came home
intoxicated, but, contrary to his usual
custom, he treated his wife very kindly.
and, after remaining in the house a short time,
again went out During his abseMte young
man rang the door-bell and inquired for one Of
Lentzs daughters but she not being at home,
he left Lentz returned Immediately, and it is
supposed that he saw the young man departing.
There was no witness to the horrible tragedy.
but from the appearance of the room, terrible
struggle must have taken place. Lentz had evil

throat. Mrs Lentz, covered with blood, ran out
the back door, then through an alleyway to the
street, where she entered a saloon and fell to
the floor dead. At the same time two pistol
shots we're heard in the direction of the Lentz
house. Policemen entered the house and found
Lentz lying dead on the foor with a shot
through the neck and revolver lying by his side.
He had tried to end his life by hanging but was
unsuccessful. The neigEb bors speak very highly
Of Mrs. Lentz, and say the husband had no

THEY MUST HANG.
The Louisiana Board of Pardons Refuses to
Interfere in the Case of Ford and Murphy.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Feb. 27.-The Board Of
Pardons was in session all day, considering the
application of Pat Ford and John Murphy for
Communication of the sentence of death passed
upon them for the murder of T. J. Murphy, or
Gap Murphy, on Dec. l, 1884. and at 5
o'clock this evening the board, by vote OF two
to one, refused to recommend them to executive
clemency. The member of the board in favor Of
communication was Lieutenant governor Knob
loch. The other two members of the board are
Attorney general Cunningham and Judge
on the trial of the men. The friends
by the Governor had canvassed the entire State
and had obtained $4,000 signatures to /. petition
for Communication of the sentence. This was
submitted to the board, together with appeals
for mercy from the Governor of Missssippl;
the Mayor Of San Francisco, CAL; Chairman
English, of the Democratic State central COM
mittee of California; three judges of the Su-
preme Court of California, and many other
prominent men from this and other sections of
the country. The Governor when he granted
the last reprieve, declared that if the board did
not act in favor of the accused he would not
again interfere with the execution of the sent
ence, and the men, it is believed, are certain to
be hanged within short time. The action of
the board, it is generally believed, will have a
good effect on the lawless element of the commu-
nifty, and put stop to murder, for every agency
and influence, political, religious, social and per-
sonal, has been brought to bear on the board,
and all without effect.

KISSING THE QUEEN.

The British Public Grows Tired Of Her Life
of Privacy and Seclusion.
LONDON Feb. 27.-Queen Victoria is rapidly
becoming common topic of discussion here. An
extraordinary editorial in the Standard yestsr-
day has made sensation.
1t said: ut is time to say publicly what
everybody has been saying privately for many
years-that the Queen and the country over
which she rules have been too long separated;
that the separation cannot he continued much
longer without serious and lasting injury both to
room in the English Constitution for sovereign
who lives in almost complete seclusion."
It will be remembered that the Standard is the
organ Of all that is most conservative and loyal
The evening papers followed suit. Then at
night, in Parliament great feeling was displayed
about the Kissing Of the toast to the Queen on
Wednesday.
The Attorney general declared. in reply to a
challenge to- explain his conduct as Minister Of
the crown in not leaving the table, by saying
that he heard no kissing whatever, and that the
accounts were grossly exaggerated. can only
say that l sat within ten feet Of the Attorney
general at the dinner, that the Kissing cries con-
stituted the most conspicuous incident of the
evening, and that at least a third Of those pres
ent remained seated while the toast was drunk.
The reason for this is perfectly well known.
The working classes throughout the country con-
sider and rightly, that the Queen has treated
Mr. Gladstone on several occasions recently with
a distinct personal slight 1t is this they re-
sent Yesterday the Queen had very cordial
reception at Albert Hall. 1t is ten years exactly
since she attended similar concert there 1t is
safe to prophesy that the people will see rather
more of her after this little excitement.
