Samuel w. Brooks, father OF Hugh M.
Brooks, alias "W. H. L. Maxwell" has writ
ZEN a long and touching appeal to the Ameri-
can people to help him save his boy from
the gallows. The St. Louis Post Dispatch
prints the appeal, which fills nearly seven
columns. The elder Brooks gives his rea-
sons for asking public assistance in this way.
The injustice of his sons trial and the hard
ships of the Missouri State laws, which op-
crate entirely in favor of the lower courts to
the exclusion of the defendants chances,
the Incompetence OF two jurors, the errors
in the criminal Judges instructions. the
failure of the Court to admit proof of the
prisoners good character, the suppression
of evidence, and, particularly, the frequent
ly denounced Dingfelder plot, by which an
alleged confession was gotten from Brooks
through detective incarceratcd in the same
Jail in st. Louis, are urged in measured and
respectful, but strong language.

1t is generally believed that the debate on
the Tariff bill, which is to begin week
from last Tuesday, will occupy almost the
entire attention of the House until it is fl
nally completed, as the talk is going to be
far more general and extensive than was at
first anticipated. The most experienced
members say that the bill will occupy the
floor about five days in the week, and that
there will be sessions almost nightly for
tariff debate. If there were only five days
week given to the bill, and no night ses
sions, the regular speeches alene would oc.
cupy the time until June The amendments
which will then be offered to the bill when
the previous question is called, aud which
will be taken up under the five minute rule,
will consume. quite AS much time as the
debate in general

THE FRENCH CRISIS.

The crisis in France seems to have no
other meaning than dissatisfaction with the
treatment of Gen. Boulanger. While it is
an event that is to be regretted, the Tirard
Ministry was not wise enough to make its
overthrow misfortune if the evil stops
with its downfall. 1t is 10 be feared, how
ever, that this is the beginning of another
agitation similar to that which attended the
retirement of President Grevy. In that case
the overthrow of the Republic may be the
final outcome of the downfall of Tirard.
The trouble with the Frenchmen is that
they never known when to stop. Already
there are mutterines of a demand for the
resignation of President Carnot. This can
onlv have one meaning-the desire of the
noisv multitude to put Boulanger In his
Mace. Tins the deposition of Greyv-for
he was practically deposed-s an uufortu.

The immense vote cast for Gen Boulan.
ger to fill the vacancy in the Chamber Of
Deputies for the Department of Dordogne
is significant, if not alarming. But Il few
days have elapsed since this man was de
posed from the command of crops, and
placed on the army retired list. The Con.
servatives hoped that this treatment of his
case would so reduce his political influence
that he would cease to menace public tran
quillity. The response to this hope was the
overthrow of the Ministry on vote for
urgency for revision of the constitution.
1t will be remembered that the issue was
distinctly drawn by an appeal of the Minis.
try to the Chambers not to- take sides with
Boulanger. The new Cabinet formed by
M. Floquet, issued a conservative address
asking to be permitted to determine upon
the proper time for constitutional revision.
The response to that appeal is this vote OF
more than $4,000 for Boulanger.

h The Trades Assembly of Chicago has for
years been the most powerful American
labor organization outside of this city. 1t
tis, or rather was, composed of delegates
3elected from the trade and labor unions of
kChicago. and held regular sessions every
ISunday, after the manner of the Central
Labor Union of New York. Some time ago
the meetings of the Trades Assembly began
to be disgraced by bitter qaarrels, which
have been followed by heavy secessions
from its ranks, and now it has fallen to
pieces. There must be some potent reason

Roscoe Conkling's Illness.

Hon. Roscoe Conkling was thought to be
dying on Monday night last from an abscess
in the left ear, which has been caused by
his exposure to the blizzard last March, in
which he came near pershing. An opera
ton was performed, from which he got a
little relief, but yet his life was uncertain.
The New York Sun describing the opera
tion, says:
The operation TO be performed would be
performed by old surgeons with the trephine,
an instrument which looks like u tube OF
steel, crowned at one end with saw teeth,
SO that when revolved it cuts out circular
piece of bone from the skull. The trephine
is considered rather bungling instrument
nowadays. DR.. Sands turned Senator Cenk
ling's head over upon its right side and cut
lateral incision in the scalp two inches
behind the left ear. LIE !-ies@3on was about
three inches long. The scalp parted, and
the student attendants dried the slight hem
orrhage that there was, and stood ready with
their appliances to stay /, possible hemor-
rhage of the lateral sinus. There was, how
ever, no call for their services in this regard.
The skull lay exposed. Deity and quick
ly DR.. Sands ran the edge of II little steel
chisel under the squamous portion of the
temporal bone-the scae-like plate of the
temporal bone back of the ear Dr. Sands
gave three or four smart raps with u malet
upon his chisel and raised the bony plate.
AS he did so the pus gushed out.
The diagnosis of DR.. Barker was confirm
ed. A pocket of pus had formed back of
the ear and was pressing upon the brain
DR.. Sands held the plate raised for little
while and let as much pus ooze out as
would. About an ounce thus came out
Then Dr. Sands let the plate back. No
draining tubes were inserted in the skull, as
it would be dangerous, of course, to keep
the bony plate raised.
The doctors were delighted at the result of
the operation. The pressure of the pus up
on the brain was removed, in great degree,
at least. While no one could say whether
more pus would collect or not, the operation
had been primarily successful, and II meas
ure of relief, at least, had been afforded. The
actual operation took only fifteen min.
utes. Senator Conkling recovered nicely
from the effect OF the ether, but went back
to his old condition OF alternate deirium
and insensibiity.
Since Monday Mr.. Conkling's condition
has changed for better and worse. Thursday
mornings papers report that there is one
chance of his recovery in % and slight
change for the worse.

Capital and Energy Interested in tho
Enterprise-whyN Not Havo Dozen
More OF tho Same Kind7

The unparalleled advantages presented
by Memphis for the sale and distribution
OF manufactured goods have long been
recognized, and many have been the pre-
dictions that the day would come when
most, II not all, Of the articles sold here
will be manufactured here instead OF inn
ported from other cities and States. Thus
far the progress Of Memphis in the es-
Enlistment OF manufacturing enterprises
has been gratifying, but immensely below
what might have been expected OF her,
due regard being had TO her unequalcd
facilities for Southern and Western dislri-
button and her proximity TO raw materials
boundless in extent and variety. In no
department Of manufacture has Memphis
been 80 backward as in the furniture
line, and in view Of the inexhausii-
BILE variety OF woods at her very
doors il seems surprising that no
step has heretofore been taken in the d.
rcction Of furniture making. Millions are
spent annually in Cincinnati, Evansville
and Grand Rapids in this one line, when
every dollar Of Il might bc kept here. The
first move toward that end will shortly
be made. The furniture factories ut Union
City, Tenn, and Little Rock, Ark, have
pooled issues and will remove their plants
here. 4 suitable lot ON the line Of the Pros
poet Park Dummy Company has been pur-
chased and factory building will be at once
erected. Local capital has been enlisted
In the enterprise, aud there is little doubt
that the Investment will yield handsome
returns There is no reason why Mem
phls should not have n dozen such iacto-
Ties, and the initial step here recorded
may, perhaps, prove the pioneer Of other
such enterprises The conditions Of sue
cess are certainly here.
