LIGHT ON A MYSTERY.

The Duluth Diamond Robbery Ex-
planned by a St. Paul Detective.
Special to the Globe.
DULUTH, Minn., Oct. 6.-Some new
developments have come to light in the
diamond robbery that occurred here
about one year ago. Five thousand
dollars worth of diamonds were stolen
from two ladies of fiimsy reputation
living with Lottie Wolf. At the time Of
the robbery the police were suspicious
of fraud. 1t was learned that the jew
els, which had been bought of the st.
Paul pawnbroker, Simon, had not yet
been paid for. Simon employed De-
tective Sachse on the case. They ar
rived in this city yesterday with Chief
of Police Doran, went to Lottie VOLTS,
and demanded the diamonds or the pay.
She denied all knowledge of the affair.
Chief Doran then ordered the house
closed. Madam Wolf thought over the
matter, and notified Chief Doran that
she would settle. Thus ends the mys-
terious diamond robbery.

has been done since Stephenson's day to ina
prove the runners of the machine, and says:
E'The majority of engineers are not able to

nothing about steam generation or expansion;

The late Samuel Morris of Indianapolis,
who died on the ninetieth anniversary of his
birthday, was very proud of being, as he
claimed, the author of the plan of siege by
which Vieksburg was taken. He was sur
veyor, and made fine map of the vicinity
of Vicksburg, with which he was familiar.
This he sent to General Grant early in the
campaign against the rebel stronghold. "On
my map" he said, 'tI located all the points
of prominence. I wrote on the margin:
Grand Gulf and Bruinsburg are the places
to capture and hold; then destroy the
bridges over Big Black river and Bayou
Pierre; those streams will guard your hsnks.
Then march out and capture Jackson; this
done, you can take Vicksburg at your leis-
ure.' sent this to General Grant, and af-
terward the canal project on which he was
working was abandoned and my plan was
adopted" General Grant acknowledged the
map in a letter, which Mr.. Morrison priced
very highly.

A REFRESHING REPORT.

Occasionally there is gleam of sense in
congress. One appears in the report accom-
panying the Spooner bill to. regulate inter
State telegraphy.
The committee recognize the fact that the
wise and conservative legal regulation of the
great corporations and monopolies of the
country by the state and federal governments
is essential to the welfare of the people, but
recognizing the necessity for reasonable and
limited control of the telegraph companies
they doubt the propriety of the government
assuming the ownership and entire manage
ment of them-frst, because they think it
may be dangerous to increase the patronage
and power of the government, as these would
be increased by the ownership and operating
of the telegraph; and, second, because of the
belief that it would require large number
of employees and great deal more of money
under government ownership to carry on the
system of telegraphy than to carry it on un-
der the supervision of private interests, and
would thus make the costs of its use to the
people more than would be necessary under
just regulations such as are proposed in the
bill.
It is argued by some that it would be as
safe and convenient for the government to
carry on postal telegraph system as to carry
on the present postal system. This is plaus-
ible, but there are many sound reasons
against it, and the committee mention one
which has not hitherto received much notice.
They say that it must be remembered that,
while the government appoints and regulates
the duties of postmasters and others employ
ed in the postal service, the vehicles and
means of transportation, valued at hundreds
of millions of dollars, are not owned by the
government, and that the entire transporta-
tion of the mails is.done by individuals and
corporations under contracts with the gov
ernment.
The report, in conclusion, expresses it as
the sense of the committee that whatever can
be done as well by private enterprise and
with as much safety and security to the peo-
pie should not be undertaken by the govern
naent at present. This is refreshing and in
marked contrast to the gush and demagogism
that is SO popular nowadays. The govern
nent has business enough on hand without
running the telegraph system of the country,
the gas and water supplies, etc., etc.
