Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. Sept. ga prominent
MinneSotian says that The pretense of Mr..
Strait to be Indifferent and care-free as to
the congressional nomination, or renOmina-
ton as he would prefer it, is mere ostenta-
ton of political chcanery. He says that
there is not one of all the men who have
come to congress from Minnesota who is so
anxious from time to time to be returned.
1t is well known that great deal of Mr..
Straits ambition comes to him by abSOrp-
ton. He manages to acquire more or less
erudition by absorption. and his ambition
is imbbed and replenished in the same
way. You see he is bound to be ambitious,
for family reasons, if for no other. He
has wife's ambition, if not the manly de-
sire for political preferment. Mrs, Strait
was at one time one of the most accom-
plished and able employees of the depart
ment of justice. She was splendid clerk,
as well as an estimable lady. You may be
sure that it is not unnatural, nor is it
reprehensible, for the lady to return to
Washington year after year and move in
society as the wife of popular and hand
some congressman. Therefore must the
congressional bee keep OH buzzing in Con-
gresham Straits bonnet, whether he will
it or no. 1t is well to have some motive
power. The vim and determination of
wife have made many man prominent in
affairs, even when he had small capital and
brains to go on. Gen. Logan knows this.
So does Congressman Strait.

OVER A PKEClPICE.
Two Men Fatally Injured by Ter.
ribIe Fall.

PITTsBURG, Sept. 5.-A sensational and
probably fatal accident occurred about 10
o'clock last night. Officer George Woods
and a man named Edward Henning, whom
he was arresting, fell over cliff to Locust
street, and both are not expected to survive
the injuries they received. Henning had
engaged in street quarrel, and when the
officers arrived took to his heels. Woods
gave chase and finally drew his revolver
and shot at the fugitive, the ball taking eff
feet in Henning's left forearm. They were
then not far apart, and when Henning fell
the ball entered his flesh. He stopped
and stood at bay, just at the brink of
precipice fifty feet high. 1t was the work
of an instant. They clinched, a short
tussel followed, and suddenly both men
disappeared. When other officers arrived
no one was in sight, but a faint cry from
over the cliff attracted their attention.
Looking down the two men were seen
stretched motionless at the bottom of the
cut. Woods was unconscious and both
men were terribly injured. They were
carried to the police station and afterwards
removed to the hospital. where they are
now lying. Henning is resting easier to-
night, but Woods is suffering intensely
and may die before morning.

TO-DAY'S GAME.
Positions.
Milwaukee
Milwaukee, in the Rear Again.


Minneapolis added another to its list of
victories yesterday, and Milwaukee was
the victim. The 2, 900 persons present saw
quite an interesting game, though scarcely
a fine one. Luck, which was certainly
against Minneapolis in the early part of the
season, has changed and the wind of good
fortune has chopped about and now sits in
a corner more favorable to Minneapolis.
After the announcement that SOwders and
Daily would be the pitchers, neither APP
peared. Sweeney occupied the box for
Milwaukee and pitched good game in the
main, though he lost his head at critical
points. His support was excellent, with
the exception of Colgan, the passed balls
costing Milwaukee the game. Buckley
made his debut in the box for the home
team. His leisurely style and cool head
were IN his favor and his want of practice
against him. In the first four innings he
was wild and ineffective, giving four men
bases on balls and receiving seven safe hits.
leaving the score three to'One against the
home team. After that, however, he
buckled down to work, and during the re-
mainder of the game was hit lightly and
seldom. and the visitors were shut out
thereafter. He was admirably supported
by Faatz, whose catching was faultless

having one tumble and one wild throw

were very costly, as none of the seven Min
neapols runs were earned. Following is

Anarchist.
She Talks of Glorious Martyrs and
Urges the Sheddin. of Tyrants'

Trades Union.
Mrs. Parsons at White Heat.

CHICAGO, Sept. 3.-Three thousand
socialists and their sympathizers took the
train for Sheffield. Ind, this morning to
attend the picnic given by the Socialistic
Publishing company. for the purpose of
raising money for the defense Of the con-
demned anarchists. Prominent among
those there could be seen Gen. Parsons,
brother OF A. r. Parsons Balthazar Rau,
Christ Spies, Ferdinand Spies and others
OF the former leaders. The father Of
Oscar Neebe and DR.. Ernst Schmidt also
attracted attention. Admitting crowds
gathered around Mrs. Parsons and Mrs.
Schwab both of whom talked londly and
dehantly of anarchy, present and to come.
After speeches by French and Germans, q
song In German was sung to the tune Of
ste 'Marseillaise" with great enthusiasm,
and then Mrs. A. r. Parsons stepped to
the front being greeted with great ap-.
plause. She was as pronounced as ever in
her speech bitterly denouncing tie whole
proceedings of the court.
"If," said she, ''these men are hung it will
be foul murder. If they are hung and you
people do not resent it powerfully and so that
it will be remembered for many year to
come, you are unworthy to be called men.

ground you under their feet for SO long are
not tyrants, who are? If your late action has
not been obedience to God what has it been?
The story Of the conviction of our glorious
martyrs went abroad all over the world.
Would they have done so on hearing of the
conviction Of any ordinary murderers? No,
it is because they know their own weakness
and fear our strength that they rejoice
in the downfall of ouriheroes. 1t is your duty
and l demand of you to echo the crash OF

that all this country will hear, and hearing.
tremble. You know that it is for you and
our glorious principles that those men now
suffer in their cells. See that their persecC-
ton does not go ''unrewarded.'
The similarity Of opinion between the
speaker and audience was evidenced by
wild and prolonged cheering and the wav-
ing of many red flags in the hands of ex-
cited anarchists. No more speech-making
occurred, and the day found an end with
much beer drinking, accompanied by repeti-
lions Of the ''Marseillaise' and the copious
flutterng of red flags.

New YORK, Sept. 5.-The steamboat
Etruria crossed the bar in the lower bay at
l o'clock this morning. When the pilot
boarded the vessel he carried quantity of
letters and papers for Mayor Courtenay, of
Charleston. and it was then that he first
learned of the earthquake. He was told
too that his wife and family were saved,
but that they were rudely tented on the
lawn near their ruined home in Montague
street. Mayor Courtenay landed at a. m.
to-day. and at once sent message of cheer
and reinsurance to his family. At his no.
tel he said:

most incredable. / am overw helIned with

eminent has its hands full. There are the
inmates of the hospitals to care for be-
sides other matters connected with

Add to all else the fact that about forty pris-
oners have escaped, and there can be no
wonder that theft is going on even at this
critical time. In few days, however, order
