DOODLE ALDERMEN.
conviction of Jaehne With the Rest to
Follow Suit,

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE jury in the
j aehne case returned verdict at lilo Sun
day morning of guilty, and the jury was
discharged Jaehne, who was regarded
as one of the most respectable" of the
board of aldermen, was the first to con-
fess, after the recent developments at the
senate committee inquiry, that he had ac-
rcepted "A bride of 100000 for his vote in
favor of the franchise of the Broadway
street railway. His conviction will prob
ably result in the other prisoners also be-
ing found guilty, as the evidence against
his partners in crime is very similar to
that against him.
When he reached the Tombs after his
conviction on Sunday morning it was
nearly 9 O'Clock Night Warden Orr was
startled from his reveries by the ringing
of the bell at the gate. He was surprised
to see Jaehne in the custody of two depu-
ty sheri1fs and to learn that the alder
man had been convicted. Jaehne was taken
to cell No. II in the condemned row on the
ground floor The prisoner did not eX-
hibit any signs of emotion except when
he mentioned the fact that his wife
and children would be horror stricken
when they learned his fate. He lay down
upon the cot in the cell and from sheer
exhaustion fell asleep. He awoke early
and sent for the newspapers, so that
be might read what had been written con.
corning him. Then his breakfas was
sent to him but he had no appetite. A
few of his old neighbors called to see him
during the morning A reporter called il
the afternoon and found the alderman at
tired as neatly as though he was ready fol

was clear and he greeted the reporter in
pleasant way. He did not seem to be cas-

one that would do the whole commuuit,

the eX-aldermen he would try first, but tn
cases would be rapidly disposed of, and h
did not doubt that he would secure a con

LIBERAL MALCONTENrs.
Going Too Far in Their Opposition to
Premier Gladstone.

LONDON, May lS.-The Radical and
Wing malcOntents are beginning to see
that they have gone too far with their
confident talk about the certain defeat of
the Home Rule bill, of the overthrow of
Mr.. Gladstone, and of what they will do
hereafter. They have gone to the absurd
length of forming cabinets, in which of
course, The leading conspirators have the
posts of honor, but which are composed OIL

OuSly mixed as to be obviously uuwork-
able for single week Their possession
of the promised land depends upon Mr.
Gladstone's resigning, and this is about
the last thing that the premier seems dis
posed to do If he is defeated and does
not resign the only other alternative is
dissolution and new election In the
present temper of the constituencies, and
their hatred of the men who have betray-
ed Mr. Gladstone, it seems certain that
very few of the seceders could be elected

THE BREEZES BLOW
AND MUCH DEATH AND PROPERTY
DESTRUCTION FOLLOW.
Fifty Ohioans Killed, Five Hundred In
jured, and Uncounted Property Losses,
the Result of the Tornado-west-
ern Ohio Visited u Second Time.

CLEVELAND, May 1.-THE disastrous eff
fects of the recent cyclone in this State it
is difficult to measure. Between the
hours of 10 O'Clock Friday night and 9
O'Clock Saturday morning the storm
ploughed its way through hundred mile
of splendid farming country in a south
westerly direction, leaving desolation in
its wake. Seneca, Hancock, Hardin,
Augiaize and Mercer counties to-day
mourn the loss of millions of dollars in
property, and above all, scores and per-
haps hundreds of lives. A fair estimate
of the number killed places it at fifty,
while not less than 800 were more or less
injured, some of them fatally, and many
very severely. The tornado appears TO
have originated near Andei son, Ind, and
swept through seven counties in Ohio, ter
minating in the central portion of Seneca
county, forming path about 10 miles in
length and varying from quarter OF a mile
to mile in width. 1t is impossible, of
course, to give any accurate figures re
garding loss OF property. Much OF the
damage consists in the destruction of
crops and timber and washing away of
land, and no one Is competent TO place the
real valuation of this sort of property.
Seneca county reports the loss to build
ings and live stock, 100000: Hardin coun-
ty, over $4,000; Wyandotte, 5000; Mer-
Ger, Sl50,OOO.
An Addendum to the First Storm.
Western Ohio was visited on Saturday
night by another tornado and a very heavy
rain and hail storm. The worst damage
was done in the neigh borhood of the Mer-
Ger county reservoir, the largest artificial
body of water in the world. This reser
voir covers more than 1900 acres of land,

Exposure of a sample Lot of Republican
and New York "Tribune FaIsehoods.
Nothing could be more detestably
mean than those efforts to break down
Civil-Service reform simply because the
administration of it is in Democratic
hands which consist of gross misrepre-
sentation of every thing done and at
tempted. The New York Tribune con-
tanned an article on "nullifying the Civil
Service law" which hardly contain ed
a truthful statement or fair inference
from beginning to end, and the writer
was probably aware of that fact. 1t be-
gins by saying that the ''course" of
Democratic officials to nullify the law
is '.shown by their method of reorgan-
izing the examining boards. After
stating-what is not true-that the
rules forbid the appointing ofiicerfrom
having access to the list of eligibles, it
says: 'The first thing the Democratic
officials did was to reorganize the ex-
amining boards and to have their
private secretaries and chief deputies"
made the chairmen and secretaries.
This will do for specimen.
The Democratic ''officials, meaning
the appointing officers, do not organize
or reorgaLize the examining boards.
That is done by the Civil-Service Com
mission at Washington. 1t has entire
control of the machinery of examina-
tions. The constitution of the eXamin-
