Another Man Found Murdered in
One of the Emgl ish ssFirst-CIass''
Cars.
LONDON, Sept. pa sensation has
been produced by the announcemen of the
discovery of mysterious tragedy in COM
partment car. The discovery was made
last evening. but was not made public until
to-day. When the o'clock train from the
city on the underground railway arrived at
the Queensford station last evening, news
boy noticed blood dripping from a COM
partment of a first-class carriage. He raised
an alarm and gentlemen was found lying
on the floor of the car. He was uncOn-
scious, and blood was flowing freely from
his head. 1t was found that on his fore
head there was a deep wonnd four inches
in length. This had evidently been made
with an instrument sharp and heavy. The
scalp was not only cut clear through, but
the skull was crushed in and the brains
were protruding. On the mans person
was found gold watch and chain and
some finger rings. none of which had been
disturbed but very little money. The man
was at once conveyed to hospital. He is
still unconscious and his condition is pre-
carous. 1t has been learned that his name
is Moritz A. Fischer. and that he is the
head of the house of NJ. A. Fischer q Co.,
foreign agents of Carter Lane, E. G. The
police have as yet been unable to gain a
clue to the cause of the murderous attack,
or to the identity of his assailant.

ness of which he can have no informa-
ton whatever. He can simply and
only charge the treasurer with the
several sums said by the treasurer
to have been so paid in" Was ever a
more disgraceful system of public book
keeping and public accounting ever known?
The treasurer is the public collector and
disburser, and yet he is only charged by
the auditor, who is the public bookkeeper,
with Just such amounts as he sees fit to
give him. Was there ever such an
opportunity for fraud and pecula-
tions Taking these facts in con-
nection with the anxiety manifested
by the state house ring to hold on to the key
of the treasury, are not the people of the
state justified in making the demand for a
change of administration? Putting every
thing together. is there not just and ample
ground for suspicion of crookedness? This
state of things has been in existence for
twenty-seven years. and it is time there
was an investigation of the accounts of the
treasury department.. And what is more,
the people are determined to have it.

THE BLAINE BLUFF.
The Great Apostle of Protection
Invited TO stump For a Free-Trade

The Great Apostle of Protection
Invited TO stump For a Free-Trade
Platform.
st. Paul Dispatch Rep.).
The Pioneer Press claims, and rejoices over
the fact. that the Republican state conven-
ton declared in favor of tariff reform" or
in other words, free trade as represented by
the vote of four OF the Minnesota congress-
men to take up the Morrison revision bill.
There is no question that the convention did
approve of the action of Messrs. Nelson,
Strait White and Wakefield in voting to con-
slider the Morrison bill, and by that action
virtually condemned Hon. w. ID. Washburn
for voting against it. This of course, a ma
jOrity o. the convention had right to do,
but there was Il gross incoagruity in the
subsequent action in passing resolution
sending greeting to James G.. Blaine and
inviting him to come and stump the state
for the Republican ticket nominated on
such platform. If there is one principle
which James G. Blaine represents more dis
t1netively than another, 1t Is the principle OF
protection to American industry. He took
pains TO put this issue forward prominently
In his great speech opening the recent Maine
campaign. Mr. Blaine and all his represent
alive followers strongly condemned the
course of the four Minnesota congressman in
voting to take up the Morrison bill. Would
it not be rather embarrassing to MIR. Blaine
to come to Minnesota to stump for q ticket
and platform which stands upon principle
which he condemns? The action of the con-
ventiOn on this point was demagogical in the
extreme. 1t was evidently done with de-
sign to 'hit it if it was deer and miss it If
it was calf" 1t took stand virtually in
favor of free trade, and then invited the great
apostle OF protection to come and stump the
state for the ticket!

Put Am End to PIundering.

Chicago Herald.
1t is the West which must and will put an
end to the plundering which has been going
on for twenty years under the name of pro-
tecting home industry. To look to the stu
pendous interests which have waxed strong
under this system for relief from it's unjust
exactiQns, or to the intimidated and ignorant
labor which they employ, would be idle. The
people whom this mOnOpOlistic scheme
despoils must accomplish their own deliver
ance. A little more patience. a little more
courage and wisdom on the part of the peo
pies leaders, and little more agitation, and
the longs poliated West will rise like giant
from his sleep and throw off the bonds with
which it has been made subservlent to the
will of rings and combinations.

DUBLIN. Sept. 24.-The police last night
ran down and surprised a party of NOON
lighters at Feale bridge, County Kerry.
Three constableS, toward midnight. con-
cealed themselves a short distance from the
Feale bridge police hut. Not long after the
constables were in hiding they noticed the
moonlighters approach. The constables
ordered them to halt in the queens name.
The mOonlighters replied to the summons
with volley from their rifles, aimed in the
direction whence the summons came. The
police then fired buckshOt at the moon
lighters, who were in plain view of the
moonlighters One of the mOOnlighters
fell. The others turned and fled. The
police pursued, menacing them with threats
of shooting, and succeeded in Overtaking
and manacIing six. who, with the wounded
man, were taken to Jail. The police
secured the country for the others, of whom
thew have arrested, twelve, and taken to
ListOwel.

CoURT HOUSE ENLARGEMENT.

The court house commission did wisely in
refusing to consider any proposition looking
to the enlargement of the court house now
in process of erection. When completed
the structure will be one of the largest,
most commodious and best appointed mu-
nicipal buildings in the country. The addi-
ton of another story would not be in har-
mony with the architectural arrangement
already adopted, besides furnishing room
which. while it might be in some way
utilized, is not now needed. If any addi-
tional expense is to be undergone it should
be in the interior finish of the building. The
commissioners say that the sum appropri-
ated, 5000, 600, will not be sufficient to pro-
vide anything but the cheapest kind of
fittings if the exterior is to be completed on
a scale with the present elaborateness. In
a structure such as the new court house is
to be, pride and ornament to the city, the
people do lot want anything savoring of
shoddy and shabbiness. Its interior Orna-
mentation and furnishing should be in
keeping with the rest of the magnificent
building and whatever additional expense
is entailed, within the bonds of reason, the
people will doubtless be perfectly willing
to pay. The court house does not need an
additional story, but it does need the abb
sence Of anything like meanness in its dec
Grafton and furnishing.

WHEAT SPECTATORS DYNASTY

WHEAT SPECULATORs' DYNASTY
With MCGILL at the head OF the ticket
and PILLsBURY at the head of the cam
paign committee the Republican party is not
particularly enticing to the farmers OF Min
nesota. The farmers of the state have been
crushed into the earth by the manipulations
of the grain spectators. The grain dealers
and elevator people picked on McGILL as
their favorite candidate for the Republican
nomination and in conjunction with the
state house ring succeeded in nominating
him. Feeling that they had more at stake
in his election than any other class of citi-
zens they then picked upon the Chief Mogul
of the wheat ring and put him at the head
of the campaign committee. With MCGILL
and PILLsBURY in control of the Republi-
can party there would be a mighty poor
show for the farmer under another Republi-
can administration.

about this result. McGill was In the Held ac-

garding the canvass throughout small points
In the interior, and In this he was backed by
all the Vaccinations of the powerful state

this ring, and it is doubtful If he even knew
himself the extent and power of this combina-
ton, though he has been closely identified
with Its members for the past sixteen years.

occupying two seats. Down in Indiana
some place native came in the smoker,
and says:
''Shove along, stranger, an give Teller

Then the native sat down, settled him
self comfortably, much to the drummer's
disgust. and resumed:
Say, stranger, killing hogs is hard work.
Did you ever kill any hOgs?"
But the drummer did not condescend to
answer.

Gorilla in Paris.

PARIS, Sept. 24.-Senor Gorilla, the
reader of the Spanish revolution, in an in
terview published in the Figaro, says last
Sundays uprising in Spain was premature,
and declares that in the revolt, which will
take place at the proper time. many of the
generals in the Spanish army will support
the revolutionists. Spain has demanded
from France the expulsion of Ruiz Gorilla
from French territory. The French cabi-
net to-day discussed the demand and sepa-
rated without being able to agree as to the
proper answer to make Spain. 1t was re-
solved to submit the matter to President
Grevy.
Gorilla, in an interview, said that he
knew nothing of the revolt in Spain until
he read of it in the papers. He approved
the action of his friends, but did not expect
so sudden an explosion.

900 in these securities were received at the
treasury, making NEARLY $1,000.0 900 in ALL

induce voluntary surrender of the bonds
being thus apparent, is it not time to call at a

this way be stopped, and the treasury be re
lieved of surplus against the maintenance
of which the Democracy has earnestly and
rightly protested. What is needed is bond
