has hitherto been whispered in society
concerning the connection OF the
Prince of Wales with the scandal at
tachcd 10 the marital relations of Lord
and Lady Colin Campbell. LORD
Colin had long suspected the prince
of carrying OH an intrigue with his
wife. and finally, becoming convinced
of the correctness of his suspicious,
Threatened to include the heir to the
british throne among the numerous
RESPONDENTS. Last year, while III
search of evidence against Lady
Campbell and her alleged paramours,
Lord Colin found in her ladyship's
desk y package of letters which had
from time to time been addressed to
her by the prince. These letters were
moi couched in the orthodox language
of a lover. but were sufficiently cordial
{ n tone and betrayed ample solicitude
for the lady's happiness to justify the
suspicion of her husband that the
aiscrcetly- phrased notes really meant
more than they expressed. Lord Camp
bell divulgcd the fact and nature
of his discovery to his father the duke
OF Argyle and the latter made haste

tween whom and the duke there was
held long consultation resulting in
the summoning of the prince into the
royal presence. His royal highncss
admitted without hesitation that he
had written the letters in question. but
protested his innocence of any motive
in writing them other than feeling
Df friendly interest in a brilliant young
American lady whom everybody
piticd because of her husbands noto-
rious neglect, and, rumor said, worse.
Finally Lord Colin Campbell placed
himself and his case entirely in his
fathers hands, and the duke. prcsum-
ably in obedience to the royal COM
mand, obtained the letters and for

The Specification OF the Vote In New
York.

!
New York, Nov. 6.-In its editorial
on the local contest the World says:
"Thc heavy vote for the labor candi-
date is nothing more than a personal
tribute and triumph for Henry George.
II testiies to the existence of deep
rooted discomfort among the working
classes. II signifies in an unmistak-
sblc manner that correctablc abuse,
remedial wrongs and removable in
iquity that press men down in this
land of liberty must be attended to.
The government has too long been
careless and society indifferent in re-
gard to these matters. The deep
voiced protest conveyed in $1,000
votes for Henry George against the
combined power of both political
parties, of Wall street, of the business
interests and of the public press should
prove a warning to the community to
heed the demands of labor so far as
they are just and reasonable, and that
is much further than the majority of
citizens have thus far been willing to
admit. The persistence of agitations
and its elimination in this significant
vote, ought to demonstrate to open
minded people that there is some
reason for the discomfort and that the
demands have the element of justice in
them"

Fearful Fight for Life.

New YORK, Nov. 6. A most extra
ordinary story was told by COM
plainant in police court to-day. The
prisoner was powerfully built young
colored woman who answered to the
name of Rachel Mackens. She had
been employed as cook in the family OF
Mr.. Vernon, manager of the Bijou
Opera House. Mr.. Vernon was the
complainant He said that when he
returned to his home from the theatcr
last night heard noise on the roof
and some one shouted "Murder!" and
"Helpw Hurrying into the house, he
went up to the roof and there found
the servant, who was rolling about as
IL mad. As soon as tho woman saw
him she rushed toward him, shrieking
sPolicc! police! All, I've got you now!
Before Mr.. Vernon was aware of it
the woman had sprung upon him and,
grasping him by the throat, threw him
down. Her grip was so strong that
Mr.. Vernon was unable to call for
help, and terrific struggle followed.
Slowly but surely the frenzied woman,
who had stopped shouting and was
now struggling silently, carried her
employer to the edge of the roof, in
forming him that she was going to
throw him over into the street. The
house is four~story and high base
ment, brown stone. The struggle that
had taken place was mere child's play

indians,

Fully one hundred Cree Indians who
sought refuge this side Of the line after
the Metis rebellion of last year arrived in
the city today, as they say looking for
work. These Indians have been under
the eye of the military authorizes for the
past year and should not have been allow
ed to visit the settlements. The letter
which they bring from Major Bates mere
ly states that they have behaved them
selves. This band is the largest that has
visited Fort Benton since 1879 when the
Piegans went on q hunt in the Judith,
and they should be required to return to
their reservation at once. Gen. Brooke,
commanding the district, should be mott
fed. It is not the policy af the govern
ment to allow the Indians to go where
they will. The propensity to steal is so
strong in them that when hunger causes
them to draw their belts tighter thew will
look for beef to satisfy the craving. There
is no work for them here and how they
are to subsist is one Of the questions
which cannot be answered except as we
have stated.-Riper Press.

The wheat Situation,

B-RADsTREET's has aninteresting review
of the wheat situation. It notes the gov
ernnlen estimate of production in the
United States and figures out an export
surplus of 10000. 600 bushels-the largest
since 1880, when 1876, DOC, 900 were sent
out Of the country. These figures are not
calculated to "bull" prices very much.
The London Miller OF the other hand is
quite confident that "eyery sack Of it will
be, sooner o. later, in genuine demand"
The exports and imports of the various
countries engaged In trade are estimated
by the Miller as showing a shortage of
over 1S,G00,0 900 bushels. This would be a
small margin on either side and would no
doubt be easily supplied from the invisi-
BILE supply not taken into account in the
estimates. The Miller takes no account
of war talk in its forecasting of the future,
but believing the reserves Of old grain to
to be very low everywhere, j%ustiies the
| already noticeable advance anticipated
for the latter part of the present cereal
year. IF to this be added the not improb-
able development of a great European
war in the spring, the advance IN late de.
l~iveries would seem 10 he still further
| sustained.

JOHN DILLON has an article On the
Irish question in the November num-
Der Of the Nineteenth Century. It
says:
There are the strongest reasons to ex-
pect that a large section of the landlords
in Ireland intend to evict tenants during
the coming winter. If there is to be an
other land wal the new faith of the Lib
eral party may be put to a severe strain.
Many bitter things will be said, and in
spite of all we can do deeds may be done
in Ireland which will shock them very
deeply. A very grea. responsibility will
rest upon the Liberals. Ii they will be
strong in their faith and sufficiently widen
their sympathies to enter into the bitter
ness Of an oppressed people all will come
right very soon, and Air. Gladstone will
live to see the people friends.

PRIVATE ARMIES.

The coroner's jury impanelled to
investigate the shooting of Terrence
Begley by the Pinkerton special police
have not been able to fix the crime on
any one person, but have recommend
ed that four men be held without
bail. They conclude their finding
with the charge that the Pinkerton
men have interfered with their in
curry by Withholding the names of
the men on the train, from which the
fatal shot was fired. In other words
the irresponsible and undisciplined
force which Pinkerton employed and
hired out to the proprietors Of the
Chicago packing houses, have not on
1y been guilty Of a capital crime, but
they are seeking at the same time
through their numbers to be a source
of protection to the n man who was
the cause of Begley's death.
The employment Of private detect
| ives to discover criminals and expose
secret crimes may be justified, but
| when an army Of men is organized
and armed and yet not made subject
to state authorities, the public peace
and safety is seriously menaced. The
men who seek such employment are
not very likely to be men of muehpa
tience or self-control, or men having
very high regard for the saeredness
Of human life. They are not safe
men at the best, but when they con
| spire, as they have done in this case,
to protect one Of their number from
| punishment for the most heinous vio-
lation Of the law which they pretend
to defend the time to grant such Ii
cense to them is past and the time to
| contine the exercise Of military power
to the regularly constituted authoriti-
| es has come. The reckless shooting
| of the Pinkerton men into crowds
from which they in no serious
danger should put a stop to the en-
ployment of that agency for police
| duty forever. When the state fails to
afford needed protection to property
or person the state is responsible fol-
any damage done, but cannot be ex-
cused for surrendering its power and
obligations to irresponsible private
agencies.
