like before. There are meagre reports
from the uptown districts, but in the
lower precincts where the reporters
managed to struggle through the
snow and against the wind, more than
one hundred fractures off limbs and
contusions of the skull were reported.
The ambulance horses at tree different
hospitals were completely hagged out
early in the night and the calls in
many cases could not be attended.
THE SITUATION THIS MORNING.
New York, March 13.-1 A. M.
The storm has now slightly mod
Grated. Every commercial and
public electric light in the city
was ordered shut off early
in the night for fear of the wires
breaking and iujuring the people.
Traffic on the elevated roads was not
resumed until late at night, and then
trains only ran at irregular intervals.
Several fires occurred to-day. In
some cases the coal supply wagons of
the fire department failed to reach the
fire, and the firemen had to chop
down signs, shutters and all available
wood for fuel. One engine
stalled on Broadway and three
horses and fifty men worked three
hours in getting to the house. The
hospitals had busy day of it, but
the majority of the casualties were
not Of serious nature. Old river
men say that no such night
has been known in the last thirty
years. Several boats sank at their
moorings at North river piers. From
five to six feet of snow has fallen on
the Delaware and Hudson Company's
Canal Road. and it has drifted much
higher. Many reports of casualties
are coming in.

HOW TIE RESULT WAS RECEIVED.

olctlon and properly regulated by State
laws.
HOW THE RESULT WAS RECEIVED.
The developments in Judge Gres-
hams court were disagreeable sur
prise to the railway managers. They
expected a ruling that would closely
guide them as to safe course to pur-
sue, but the result decided nothing
Even the question as to whether the
Wabash engineers will handle Bur-
lington cars will remain to be decided.
Receiver McNulta said late tonight
that he had received no notice what
ever from the representative of the
engineers employed on the Wabash
that they would or would not handle
the cars.
Chairman Harvey of the Wabash
engineers grievance committee told
the reporter that the men were strong
ly averse to touching cars belonging to
the Burlington, but as to what would
be done when the case presented itself
he absolutely declined to say or even
to tell whether he knew.
Chief Arthur said to an Associated
Press representative shortly before
midnight that the Wabash men
We're greatly excited, but for his
part he would rather not see them
take radical position. The Wabash
would handle little Burlington freight
in any event and the fact that the
road was in the hands of receiver,
who is an officer of the Federal Court,
complicated matters to such an extent
that there was danger that the Broth
erhood might become involved in a
false issue. The position taken by the
Wabash men, said Mr.. Arthur, could
not at all be considered a precedent
by other roads.

CHICAGO, March 12.-The case
against Mrs. Rawson, charging her

band, Banker Rawson, by his stepson,
was nollied to-day on action Of the

for separate maintenance he stated
therein that Mrs. Rawson had in 1875
pretended to be joined in marriage
with Lee. There were similar express
sions in Rawson's answer which she
claimed were not material to the di-
vorce proceedings and were inserted
with malicious intent and implying
that Miss Dot was illegitimate. She

PITTsBURa, March 12.-In answer
to repeated requests for a ruling as to
the method of electing Congressional
District Delegates to the next Repub-
lican National Convention, Ben Jones,
chairman OF the National Republican
Committee who believing that the
action of the Republican National
Convention of 1884 is SO plain as to
require no ruling has in reference to
these requests, sent out the following
letter:
"It will be noted that it simply re-
peals the action of the convention
OF 1884 on this point, which action was
embodied in the call for the conven-
ton of 1888. Under action of the
national Republican convention of
1884 the official proceedings (page S2)

mating members Of Congress in any
district is the manner which the Con-
gressional delegates representing that

THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.
COMMITTEES Decision Regarding
Unearned Grants.

Oneafmed Grants.
WASHINGTON, March IL. = The
House Committee on Public Lands
decided by party vote to formulate
an annual bill providing for the for
feiture of all unearned land grants.
The Republican members offered two
distinct bills: First, to declare for
feiture of that portion Of the land
grant over which the road was not
built within the time specified by the
granting act.
Second bill-To declare forfeituro
Of the remainder OF the land grant, or
that part over which the road was
completed during the specified time.
This plan they thought would insure
the passage by the Senate of the bill
of the first clause, at least without the
jeopardizing of any and all forfeited
bills.

FINDLAY, o., March 12.-Rudolph
Heller was found in a dying condition
in his house, this forenoon, with his
wife and 1S-months' old baby lying
dead by his side. 1t was first thought
that the family had been suffocated
by natural gas, but this theory is ex-
ploded. as they had their clothes on.
It is now believed to be suicide or
murder. The mystery probably will
never be cleared away, as Heller is
unconscious and cannot recover.

founders, Is largely at stake in this cleo
ton. The Republican leaders stand for a
policy which, not merely in relation to
taxation, but TO other vitality important
questions, would essentially change, not
Immediately, perhaps, the form Of our
government, but insidiously and fatally
its spirit, its policies and its bearing upon
the masses of the people.
The Republican leaders are bent upon
consolidating the rule of plutocracy--an
aristocracy OF mere wealth. All the laws
they propose, all the policies, foreign as
well as domestic, which they favor and
defend, prove this. They are the cunning
friends OF monopolists and trusts at home
and OF annexation and robbery abroad.
To return them to federal power would
gut in their hands the means OF carrying
out their unscrupuous designs, and while
in the end they might fail, yet they would
keep the Union in constant, mischievOus
turmoil, injurious TO every honest industry
and calling, and helpful only to spectators
and rascals OF all kinds.
Ii is because We see the evil and danger
GUS spirit which has got control in the
Republican party that we so strongly de-
sire the continuance OF the honest and
patriotic administration which Mr.. Cleve-
land has given the country, and under
which it has prospered so that even so
jealous Republican as Mr.. Chauucey
Depew is reported in yesterdays Tribune
as saying, in reply to the question, "How
is business?"
Good everywhere. The outlook is as
favorable as the most sanguine could de-
sire. The railroads have all the tonnage
they can haul, and the great trouble is to
find cars enough 10 meet the demands OF
trade"
II the Democratic voters will do their
duty in November the result is secure and
the Union is safe. But TO incite them to
activity and watchiulness il is not well
that they should be lullcd into a false
security. In our belief the leaders of the
party may safely deal with their voters
with the utmost frankness. II anywhere
in the field the Democratic lines are weak
let il be known and they will
be strengthened. To urge this, 70
spread in time wholesome alarm,
TO induce every Democrat everywhere u
the most jealous and unceasing efforts for
the national ticket-this We believe to bc
