CHICAGO, Nov. 2S.-The startling tes.
timony of "Informer" Chleboun yester.
day had the effect of attracting as big q
crowd to Judge Collins court this morn,
ing as the room would hold. Hronek
had changed good deal since yester-
day morning. He looked worried and
Shifted about neryously in his seat, and
eagerly listened to every word of the
testimony. The first witness was
Officer Muchaski, one of Inspector
Bonfield's Bohemian detectives. The
officer told of an interview which
Hroneck had had in the Jail office in the
presence OF himself, Inspector Bon

SStenograpiler and Officer Nordrum.

session had been made by one Schnei-

declared that Schneider had made
BOMBS FOR LOUIS LINGG.
Hronek told the inspector that he had
i2o elght-ounce sticks of dynamite hid
den In his own house. AT the close of
Witness MuchaSki's testimony, Inspect
or BOnfeld was called to the witness
stand and testified that he had an inter.
view with InfOrmer Chleboun about the
riddle OF last July. From information
furnished by Chleboun, Bonfield set
officers to work on the case
and two days later took out
warrants for the arrest of Hronek

went to the place where Chleboun was
working, and took him home to his
room, where he found

found in HrOnek's bed. The attorney
for the defense cross examined Bonfield
without changing the testimony, and
the state rested it's case. The prisoner,
Hronek, was then sworn i'm his own de.

anarchist and never had been. He then
made general denial of Informer

THANKSGIVING.

Let MS eat turkey and be thankful to-
gone our way in politics, but for all that
there is great deal of cause for graft
tude. Things might have been worse.
The year has been fruitful, and the
earth has yielded food for the nations.
There has been reasonable degree OF
business prosperity in this country. not
withStauding the political excitement
with which the land is cursed every
four years. All our national affairs
are in good shape. We are at
peace with all the world, If we
have an eye on Canada. II there is
slight stringency in money matters we
have the satisfaction OF knowing that
there is a big surplus in the treasury.
1t is consoling to know that we have
something to fall back on, and the
thought will give relish to the turkey
and cranberry sauce we will have for
dinner to-day. 1t is true there has been
no reduction in taxes, and the trusts
and monopolies are all in high feather.
But for ali that, we are going to be
thankful, because we are going to
have the legislature this winter, and we
are going to have senatorial election
with prospect of a good deal of money
being put into circulation. There is
always a good deal of commIngIing of
good and evil in this world. but the
true philosophy of Thanksgiving OBJ
seryance is to overlook the bad and
be devoutly grateful for the good that
is in sight. That's what Thanksgiving
day is for, and it must be observed ac-
cording to the true spirit of the procIa-
nation and the favor of the turkey.

THE OnIO MAN.

Gen. HARRIsON's main trouble in con-
structing cabinet will be to please the
Ohio man. This ubiquitous individual
has genius for bobbing up in political
affairs where his presence is most en-
barrassing. A Republican administra-
ton without an Ohio man well up in
the front row would be an anomaly in
American politics. Gen. HARRISON rec
ognizes this fact, but the trouble with
him is to decide wnich Ohio man to
select for cabinet Office. There is so
large surplus of Office seekers among
the Ohio Republicans, it is difficult to
make satisfactory distribution of
official plums among them. Where
one is taken and the others are left,
there is sure to be big-siZed row in
the camp, and it is an utter impossi-
biIity to find government holes to put
all the Ohio pegs in. This is just the
dilemma that the president-elect finds
himself in with regard to giving Ohio a
representative in the cabinet. Senator
SHERMAN was Gen. HARRISoN'S closest
competitor in the Chicago conven-
ton, and, by all precedent and
political courtesy, is entitled TO the
offer of cabinet position. Con-
gresham MCKINLEY is the fa-
vOrite son in Ohio. and, having
alone shared with MIR. BLAINE the hon
ors of the tariff discussion, is justly en-
titled to recognition. But there is For
AKER, bowling and clawing the air in
his frantic endeavor to be recognized as
the one Ohio statesman Of sufficient
prominence to occupy cabinet post.
Thus it is seen at a glance what an ele-
phant Ohio is on the hands of the pres
ident-elect in the work of making up a
cabinet

DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF.
G. A. r. Hen Admit That a Split Is In
evitable.
DEMOCRATS ARE DISGUSTED.
H0osier Members Of the Order Deny
That Trouble Will En-
sue.

Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK. Nov. 28.--Grand Army
men in this city seem to recognize the
importance of the movement begun in
Indianapolis yesterday, and admit that
split in the organization is inevitable.
Joseph A. Joel, editor Of the Grand
Army Gazette, says the movement will
be national In extent. He says the DEM
Ocratic members have always been
treated as more or less interloperS in
the G. A. R. The order has always had
politics in it, and the Republicans have
always run it. The Democrats have
been OStracised and treated as traitors,
even when they had been manned in
battling for the Union. Other G. A. r.
men indorse these statements and say
that the Democrats now propose to form
anon-pOlitical and charitable Organiza-
was originally intended to be. The
new order will be called by some such
name as "The Union Veteran associa-
tion," and all Union veterans will be
welcome. tits expected that many Re
publican eX-soldiers, who feel that the
G. A. r. has been run as political ma
chine, will join the new organization.
MATSON NOT IN THE SWIM.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-Referring to
the published statement of Congress
man Matson, believed to be at the
head of the movement to organize a
Democratic G. A. r., that gentleman
says he knows nothing of it except
what he has read in the newspapers,
and consequently is not at the head. or
at any other part of the affair. The
other statement in the dispatch-that
his friends expect him to follow Gen.
Palmer's course and withdraw from the
G. A. R-he says is also without
foundation. He never was member
of the organization and cannot with
draw.
During the campaign Matson and
Myers regiments of veterans were
formed in every county in Indiana, and
it is probable that these organizations
form the basis of the new movement in
that state, but Of this he cannot speak by
authority.

Brilliant Initial Production of
an Exquisite Opera,


an Exquisite Opera.
In the musical rendition, in en-
isemble, in costuming, in vocalization,
in orchestration, and in all that per-
tains to an opera performance. there
cbuld be no more complete or finished
production than ''Queen Topaz"
which was sung by the Boston Ideal
company at the Grand opera house last
evening. AS musical composition,
the opera is masterpiece, and the
wonder is that we have not known
more of it in this country. 1t is gemmed
with arias of most exquisite strain, and
the music throughout is of that deli
cate quality which never fails to
fascinate the listener. In the second act
the music is trif1e heavy in places, but
there is no suspicion of heayiness in the
other two acts. Everything is bright
ness and yivacity. The spIended cos
tuning ADDS to the charm of the per-
formance so that neither ear nor eye
grows weary. The plot is rather of the
regulation opera style, with love and
jealousy and intrigue all in bundle.
The action progresses in the sixteenth
century, and the scene is laid in Venice.
