GLADsroNE,s MANIFESTO.

| The issues involved in the Irish home
rule controversy could not be more tersely,
nor more distinctly stated than has been
done by Mr.. GLADSTONE in his address to
his Midlothian constituency. The mani
festo is model of brevity. and yet is COM
| prehensive review of the whole question.
He places his side of the controversy in
such plain language that there can be no
misunderstanding of his position, and his
opinions are given with such frankness that
it is impossible to misinterprete their mean
ing. To all impartial mind it looks as if
GLADSTONE has admirably presented the
simple issues that are involved and that he
leaves his adversaries without standing
room. In establishing his own position he
has knocked the props completely from
under the opposition. If he doesn't win
on the issue that is presented in his mani
festo then there is no virtue in England.
THE AMERICAN SABBATH.
In an able sermon last night at the First
Methodist church. synopsis of which is
given in this mornings GLOBE, DR.. SMITH
emphasized the necessity for strict OBJ
servance of the Sabbath, treating the sub
ject from both a religious and a physical
standpoint. There are but few who will
contest the reverend gentleman's PROPOSE
ton so far as it is discussed in relation to
the physical advantages of enjoying one day
of rest out of the seven days which
constitute the week. A greater number,
however, will combat the idea that the day
must be invested with sacredness. 1t is
unfortunately true that lax notions, con-
corning the holiness of the Sabbath day,
are ON the increase. We say it is unfortun-
ate, because it is to be recognized as one of
the causes which are not only revolution
izing, but demoralizing society. The
American idea IS that the Sabbath is holy
| day. The idea that it should be made a
holiday, is of foreign origin. 1t is unfor-
tunate for America when Americans
permit distinctively American ideas to be
destroyed by the teaching of foreign
schools. In this age of progressive science
and liberal thought it is difficult to be tied
down by the stern discipline of New En-
gland Puritanism, or of Scotch Presbyter-
ianism, or of the Roman hierarchy. And
yet when we stop to reflect and think upon
| the results Of Roman church discipline or Of
the stern morality of New Englond Purit-
anism or of the iron-clad religious doctrines
of JOHN KNoX's followers and study the
grand development of this country within
the last hundred years and see what potent
factors these three elements have been in
contributing to our national power and
greatness and to the stability of our institu-
ton, we feel impelled to thank GOD
that the Roman church and Puritanism and
Scotch Presbyterianism were planted on
American soil. We may try to shut our
eyes to it. but we cannot evade recogni-
ton OF the fact that stern religious disci-
| pline has had great deal to do in mould
ing the character of the men who have laid
deep and wide the foundations of our
national greatness. If our religious con-
victions do not lead us to observe the Sab

An Informer stabbed.

ST. LOUIS. July Sc. M. Haywood, an
eX-striker and Knight of Labor, but now
connected with the Furlong detective
agency in the capacity of informer, became
involved in row on the steamer Mary NJ.
Mitchell late last night and was cut seven
times and kicked until unconscious. ItIooks
very much as if the attack on Haywood
was premeditated, and under cover of a
slight disturbance it was decided to slaugh-
ter him. The trouble occurred on the
barge when the boat was opposite the
workhouse. The excursion was under
the auspices of the telegraphers Of the
city, and on board was gang who made
themselves particularly offensive to all. They
began to quarrel among themselves and it
is believed that Haywood interferred. He
was instantly attacked by eight men, one of
whom used the knife while the other seized
his revolver and beat him with it. He
tainted on the boat from loss of blood, and
when the steamer landed he pointed out a
man named John Heck, as the party who
did the stabbing. Robert O'Brien and
Tony Neiderweis, Jr., were arrested as ac-
cessories. They say they only defended
themselves, as Haywood drew a revolver
and attempted to shoot them.

THE ST. LOUIS WAY,
Further Charges of Corruption
Against the House of DELEGATES.

AhtkSt GHEc EtOtaSe Oh Oc1c&d tcSS
ST. LOUIS, July 5.-Charges of corrup-
ton against the municipal house of dele
gates are becoming numerous. The charge
that twelve CT the members of the house
were ineligible to office when elected have
been partly substantiated. That the
knowledge Of this fact by the persons in
tereSted i'll railroad corporations has been
used by them to influence the members has
been proved, and to-day charges of open
bribery are made, and the Republican this
morning states that person, who speaks
whereof he knows, will testify before the
grand jury that the passage of the Forest
Park u CarOndOlet street railway bill was
effected by the most open use of money.
He will testify, the paper says, as follows:
81 knew that money was used to procure
the passage of the BILL so far, at least, as the
statement of the man who paid the money
can go to proves the assertion; have heard
that one of the members Of the house was
talking about having paid money to the rail-
road committee for reporting the bill. Ed
Butler, a member of the house, came into my
Office one day and, after some casual CONVEX
sation, requested, rather intimated to me,
that it would be a friendly act to get this del
egate to quit talking and, as he put it, to
keep his mouth shut. l saw the gentleman
and, after a very few preliminarieS, he told
me tnat ne hau pad S2,00U to the railroad
committee of the house of delegates to report
the Forest Park & Carondolet railroad BILL
and he did not care who knew it, for the per-
sons who had taken this money had gone
back on him. On another occasion subse-
quently he described to me in detail the
transaction. I did dot ask him from what
source the money came, because had no
doubt of il in my own mind
1t is also stated that 81, 600 in cash and
SIS, 900 worth of stock was given to mem
Der to influence him to vote against the
Electric railway bill. and the privilege of
naming stations along the route of that
road was promised to another for the same
purpose.

Fatally Wounded.

ST. LOUIS, July 5.-An unprovoked as
sault that will probably result in murder
occurred at 10 o'clock last evening at Nine
teenth and Biddle streets. A number of
boys started bonfire in that vicinity, and
to procure fuel raided the premises of sew
eral grocers and secured empty
barrels and boxes. Among the
stores visited was one belonging
to a man named HennesSy, on
Nineteenth and Biddle streets. William
Hennessy, the storekeepers son, pursued
number of the boys with a knife in his
hand, and threatened, if he caught them. to
prevent further depredations for all time.
James Wade, a young plumber 10 years
old, who was well acquainted with Hen
Messy, stopped him and said
''Y GU ought to be ashamed of yourself
for running after kids with knife in your
hand"
''Well. it's none your business" re-
sponded Hennessey with an oath, at th e
same instant plunging the blade its entire
length into Wade's left side. The assailant
tried to escape. but was run down and al
rested. Wade's condition is serious.

HOPE STILL REMAINS.
Sergt. Lyons Opimes That the
Weather VIII be Cooler To-day.


Weather Will be Cooler To-day.
Readers of the GLOBE will be delighted
to learn that it was hot yesterday. After
man has sweat, sweltered and melted
there is nothing that pleases him more than
to be told it is hot. But to say that it was
hot yesterday is a tame expression, and
boiling hot is little better. In fact few
people command English enough to fifty
express their feelings The SUMS rays
blistered the head. red-hot sidewalks
blistered the feet, gIaring city walls blinded
the eyes, combining to make the average
mortal weary of life. In the shade it
was hot enough to roast flesh, while
in the sun only cmders survived. Cremation
may be all right, but to be cremated alive
is an unjust application of the theory and
there was many a candidate for an urn
last evening provided the urn contained
something cool. The excessively torrid
temperature was getting monotonous, and
GLOBE reporter climbed the innumerable
flights of stairs to Sergt. Lyons Office last
evening with blood in his eye. But the
weather clerk proved equal to the emer-
gency, and after giving the Northwest
the greatest roasting ever received at old
Soils hands he ventured the prophecy of
cooler weather for to-day. Blessings on
his head, but if the weather continues hot,
peace be to his ashes.
IT BROKE TIE RECORD.
''Aint this beastly?" said Sergt. Lyons
"It is most unheard of weather. Why was
just up on top of the building taking the OBJ
servation, and ii was 500. just think of it,
the thermometer $50 at O'Clock in the
evening. Now, just see the record of the
thermometer for the day:

Average for the day, $50. I think this is
the highest average for the day ever reported
from St. Paul, but would have to look up the
records to say for certain, The temperature
at O'Clock this evening is astonishing, and
l think, the highest ever recorded at this sta
ton at that hour. At o'clock it was 101 in
the shade at Huron, Oak, and 9S at Winni-
peg. There was cooler weather west of Bis
marck, which, we hope, will affect u.s. though
generally the Montana weather belongs to the
Pacific coast. When we get cooler weather
1t must come down the Red River valley. The
cause Of this unique weather is that there has
been a cyclone, q large revolving mass of air,
at the Northwest OF US. The air has been
lighter there and heavier here, which has
kept Il circulation of air from the South I
think, however. we will have it cooler by to-
morrow afternoon, although it is only mat
ter OF opinion.

CHIHUAHUA. Mex, July 5.-The case
OF A. Cutting of Poso Del Norte has du-
pllcation in this city. Several weeks ago
MI. MerEley, station agent here on the
Mexican Central railway and an American
citlZen, struck a Mexican who grossly in
suited and attacked him in his Office while
IN discharge of his official duties. The
Mexican getting the worst of the affair,
went before the alcade and lodged a com
plant Merkley was at once arrested and
lhcarcerated in foul dungeon where
number of malefactors were confined.
Every legal means has been exhausted by
Americans to effect his release but they
nave proved fruitleSs, and no satisfaction or
explanation is vouchsafed by the Mexican
authorities for refusing to take action in
Merkley'S case. A Pullman car conductor
who resisted and quieted a Mexican, who
was raising ructiOnS in his car i'll this
city several days ago, is not being
concealed by railroad men down the Mex
lean Central to prevent his seizure and ill
definite Imprisonment without trial. There
are now number of Americans in the
loathsome dungeons of the city, who have
been incarcerated for months without
hearing and prefent pitiabe plight in their
ragged and emaciated condition. The
American residents are highly incensed and
alarmed at the arbitrary and unjust action
oil the Mexican authorities toward citizens
OF the United States and it is reliably
stated that many will leave here until the
state department adopts a more rigorous
policy towards guaranteeing protection to
Its law-abiding citizens in Mexico. The
American consul here is severly censured
and is openly accused of siding with the
Mexican officials against his own country
men, and has, it is said, on no occasion
exerted himself in their behalf when frivol-
GUS charges were preferred against them
and they were thrust into Mexican prisons.

QUIET I'm THE CITY.
Thousands Left ST. Paul for q
Lakes and Shady Suburbs.

Thousands Left ST. Paul for the
lakes and Shady Suburbs.
ST. Paul passed very quiet Fourth of
July yesterday. 1t presented a marked
contrast with Fourth when there is a
general public demonstration, the streets of
The city being comparatively deserted dur
ing the afternoon. The public offices and
banks remained closed throughout the day.
The manufacturing and wholesale establish
mentS followed suit, while during the fore
noon the retail dealers did rushing business.
But by l or 2 o'clock even the
grocery stores and meat markets were
quiet and only the saloons. refreshment
stores and drug stores remained open. BY
unanimous consent all who could possibly
get away sought a days recreation at one of
the numerous amuSementS offered or re-
manned quietly at home enjoying the rare
pleasure of luxurious loating. The temper
AZURE did Justice to the day and did not
conduce to activity. Trainload after train
load of st. Paul people sought the cool
mosquito-lineG shores of White Bear lake
and basbed beneath the
ATTRACTIVE SHADE TREES,
disported themselves in hammocks, or
bathed in the refreshing waters of
the lake. The races at the fair
grounds drew an enormous crowd,
by for the largest of the season. The base
ball games were well attended morning and
afternoon. The annual regatta of the Min
nes0ta Boat club drew large attendance
as 1t always does, OF the friends of the
members, a goodly proportion of whom
were ladies, these events being regular So
cety affairs. Every man, woman and
child who could possibly get away from the
city III the afternoon went, and the Red
Rock camp meeting acted with other at
fractions to furnish them amusement.
There were plenty of amusementS which
were sufficiently varied to satisfy the most
fastidious. Everyone had an opportunity
to pass the day as he pleased provided he
had money enough, and if he hadn't he
could find nice quiet nook in one of the
parks and lie and dream all day of the
wealth he coveted. Everybody is glad
when the Fourth comes and equally as glad
when it has passed.
IN THE EVENING.
Last evening each individual citizen and
resident alien resolved himself into COM
mittee of one to make more noise than any
body else. A brisk cannonading of giant
fire crackers and continued musketry of
pigmy ones was not only kept up at inter-
walls during the day. but doubled and re-
doubled during the evening. In all quar-
tiers of the city sky rockets could be seen
shooting into the air and their Kissing
sound was everywhere present, while RO-
man candles covered the unwary pedestrian
with sparks and assisted the colOred fires to
light up faces OF individuals and cast a sort
OF departing halo about the glorious Fourth.
The displays of fireworks by citizens was
quite general, and for the first two hours
after dark it was impossible to look over
the city without noticing half dozen
rockets or bombs bursting in arr too hot
for them to hold together. The racket as
it grew to be as the heat of patriotism
waned, was kept up at intervals until long

There were others like him in the city who
worked from choice for the sake of the

those who failed to celebrate failed from
necessity and not from choice. A group of

work begun, discussed the desirability of a
law forbidding people to work on the Fourth
