tribes against the Union soldiers and
have read Bailey's maudlin speech
against Gen. Harrison, but for pure
gall and vituperation I have-never
heard what DIR. Demos read excelled.
He seemed to gloat over the idea that
he had few republicans in position
where he could insult them. Occasion
ally he would seem to think of come
new epithet and would raise his eyes
from his paper and froth it out. I
have no acquaintance with the DIR. He
is an old white-headed man. Seems
to he composed of vitriol and gall.
Seems 10 not have one spark of love
or kind feeling toward anybody and
seems i'm his element when he can
abuse and hate somebody. will give
you an idea of what he said:
The republicans have sold themselves to the
whiskey power and every one of them knows
it and the only thing they study Is how they
can best serve their masters. The Chicago

nothing but great drunk.
DIR. Hendricks next had his say.
The Doctor is more guarded, he didn't
seem to want to insult any one; he is
something of a slick Politician: he
seemed to find it very convenient
sometimes to leave opt a part of the
truth. He placed himself alongside
with Cleveland on the tariff, he said
both old parties ought to disband, and
the reason the republican party ought
to disbaDd was that the people down
south hated the republican patty and
it ought to disband SO the south would
love the people of the north. Bah,
Doctor, whe would have thought you
capable of getting off such slush?

A SPLENDID TEAM.

Topeka Commonwealth:
The republicans of Eskridge were
handsomely entertained last night by
two mastery speeches delivered re-
spectively by Messrs. Thompson, of
Burlingame, and Scott, of lola. The
city hall was crowded to overfiowing.
Mr.. Thompson's speech was confined
exclusively. almost to the tariff, and
the able manner in which he upheld
the grand principles o. protection to
American industries, was thoroughly
and frequently applauded
by his attentive audience.
Mr.. Scott followed and dished up the
democratic party in witty and elo.
quent style, which caused reign of
terror in the democratic camp. He
was frequently interrupted by tremen-
dous applause. This team Of speakers
cannot be excelled in the State. They
should receive immense audiences
wherever they go.

LYLE.

LYLE.
Ed. Register:
Rev. Irwin spoke at Carlyle school
house last week. He had an audience
OF about thirty. He has improved in
his morals little since last year. He
had nothing to say about the devil
this time. His speech was. of course,
a TRADE against the republican party
and General Harrison. Mr.. Irwin
might just as well step into the demo-
cratic party, He has good qualifica-
tons for that party, especially dema-
gogism and abuse; but what would be
infinitely better for him would be to
leave off his sin and come back to the
republican par ty.
Rev. Childs spoke at Deer Creek to
an audience Of fifteen. He is a man
not very well Informed and a very
poor speaker. Didn't cay much any,

seemed to be honest.

THE DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

a protest has been made by Mr.. M.
]. Weller and other East Washington
property owners, against the action of
the Commissioners in cutting out from
the schedule OF streets to be improved,
that portion of Pennsylvania avenue be-
tween Eleventh street east and the new
bridge across the Eastern Branch. The
Commissioners gave as a reason for their
omission of this street from the sched-
ulc, that the bridge would not be com
pleted for another year
Commissioner Whcatlcy states that
the Commissioners claim TO have the
power TO make appointments on the po-
lice force regardless of the army and
navy clause" of the old law which re-
quircS that persons appointed on the
force shall have honorable discharge
from the army or navy. This power is
claimed under the 9th section of the
organic act of the District. which the
District Supreme Court decided in the
Eclloff case, appealed the old law.
Comptroller Durham has held otherwise,
however. Attorney Riddle informs the
Commissioners that the language in the
decision is broad enough to cover any
question that might arise as to the ap-
pointments on the police force. 1t de-
clares that all restrictions as to ap-
pointments and removals. even to the
and write the English language, are not
citizens of the United States, have been
indicted and convicted of crime. or who
have not been discharged from the
army or navy.
The Commissioners have made the
following changes in the personnel of
the surveying party of the Engineer
Department: Charles Little to be pro-
NOTED from rodman to aXeman in place
of Mark Ward, to be promoted to in

THE wIDNER CASE.
The Defendants VIII File an Amended
Answer Tomorrow.

The Deicnuhhts VIII File an Amended
Answer Tomorrow.
To say that the local baseball men
were surprised at Justice Merrick's de-
cision in the Widner case would be to
put it tamely. The refusal Of the court
to grant the injunction when tho
damage caused by the loss of Widner's
services was not specified had given
them much reason to hope.
They did not believe il possible that
New Orleans could specify the amount
Of damage that the club had suffered.
IL appears though that this point had
little to do with the decision. The
court held that Widners services were
peculiarly valuable to New Orleans and
could not easily be replaced. Upon this
ground he issued the injunction. Ii was
necessary only TO make out n prima
facie case, and this the complainants
did.
The result will probably be that
Washington will have to pay New Or
leans well for Widner, and that the
games in which he pitched will be
thrown out, as in the case of the Gard
ner game at Pittsburg. Philadelphia
has already lost one victory through the
ineligibility of a player, and it is prob
able that the Quakers will make every
thing they can out of the technicality
from which they suffered.
W. A. Cook, esq, attorney for the
Washington Club, would not state this
morning what his plans were. He was
preparing his amended answer, which
will be presented to the court to-mor-
row, 1t will specify wherein the New
Orleans Club had broken its contract
with Widner, point in which Justice
Merrick stated the defendants answer
was defective.
Director Scanlan said to a CRITIC re-
porter to-day; eff this case is presented
to Judge Merrick in the true light and
the code of baseball usage and custom
explained to him l am sure he will re-
consider his decision. We are certainly
in the right. When the Southern
League dwindled down to membership
of four clubs they were no longer en-
titled to the protection of the National
agreement, and Widner could go where
he pleased. If we had wanted to act
mean toward New Orleans in the Fuller
matter we could have taken that man
under the same principle and never
paid cent for him. When the simple
facts of the case are properly put to the
Judge they will show the undoubted
equity of our cause"
