MARSHALL, Nov. 29.-Since the Re-
publicans have been phGnixed into the
hope of office holding again, hunt for
the meat pies in the gift of an incoming
administration has commenced. But in
this, as in the other means of subsist-
tence IN this rapidly growing section,
competition presents an amazing OBJ
Struction. There are at least half a
dozen aSpirants for the seat which
Postmaster Sullivan very satisfactorily
holds down, and which of the many will
in the end reach the Mecca of their
hopes is a question of many pros and
cons. The public certainly do not wish
to see Mr.. Sullivan disturbed, and as
his term is only about half out. it is not
very probable that there will soon be
any change. Another scheme which
the, politicians are trying to
work is a consolidation OF
now at Redwood Falls and Tracy, and a
removal, if possible, of the consolidated
each Office separately is now at low
The removal and consolidation ought to
occur. Marshall lies in the center of
the territory of supply which supports
these offices and is much more easily
reached by rail from all its sections
than any other point in the district. 1t
was only through personal and railroad
efforts that Marshall missed getting the
office now at Tracy, when it was moved
from New Him.

LIVINGSTON, Mont, Nov. 29.-The
name of the man killed here on the
Goth inst. is ascertained to have been
Daniel Miller. He was miner en-
ployed at Cokedale. 1t is now suspect
ed that he was murdered and his body
placed upon the railway track, where
it was mangled by passing
train, in order to avert suspi-
cion. The coroner has the case
under investigation. Meanwhile the
citizens have taken up the question of
ridding the town OF the thieves and
loafers who have been overrunning it
for some time. On Tuesday number
Of letters were mailed to the more Of
fensive members of the gang, Whic h
read as follows:
You are hereby notified to leave town i'm
mediately or you will be assisted out by q
committee.
No move was made ON the part of
these men to go, so last night a number
of masked men made the rounds OF the
town about IL o'clock and escorted nine
of the gentry to the cars. Some went
east OH passenger train No. 2, and 9th
aers west on the freight trains. 1t is
said that about fifteen more are on the
black list and will be made to emigrate
in day or two. The town is now more
orderly and safe for strangers than for
some time.

New YORK, Nov. 29.-The steamer
Prinz Frederik Heidrick, which arrived
here from Port an Prince to-day, had as
passengers twenty-four of the officers
and crew of the Haytien Republic.
which was recently seized by the
government of Hayti. These men COM
plain bitterly of the unnecessarily
harsh treatment they received from the
guard of seventy black soldiers who
were put Oh board the Haytien Repub-
lie after her capture by the Haytien
gun boat Dessallnes. The blacks, the
American sailors say, behaved like a
lot of savageS, and many of the
steamers crew bear marks of bayonets
on their persons for not having obeyed
some order quickly enough. The wife
of Capt. Compton and her niece, who
were on board the Haytien Republic,
were not free from the insults of the
many indignities during the seven days
they were compelled to remain on the
vessel. Complaint is also made that the
officers of the cruiser Boston, which ar
rived in the harbor during the captivity
Of the Hayiien Republic, treated their
appeals for assistance with indifference,
and even refused to aid them in making
comfortable one of their num-
Der who was suffering from a
slight attack of yellow fever. Capt.
Compton remained at Port au Prince to
look after his vessel until some dis
position is made of her. Capt. Roder-
nakel, of the Prinz Frederik, says the
representatives of the French and En-
glish governments at Port au Prince
were to leave on the Goth inst. for the
north of the island to hold conference
with the insurgents. They went, with
the consent of Gen. Legitione, to ar
range for peace if possible. Capt.
Rodernakel thinks that by this time the
two armies have met and fought a bat
tie. Two thousand government troops
left Port au Prince to march Oh st. Mare

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-As usual on
Thanksgiving the departments were
closed to-day, in fact, most of them
closed at l or Q o'clock yesterday in
honor of the annual festival. There
was an air of Sunday quiet about the
streets early in the day, which was
brokei about 10 o'clock by the sound of
drum and trumpet as the local militia
turned out for parade. The First regi-
ment formed on Fifteenth street, just
south of Pennsylvania avenue, and the
Second regiment and battalion of the
Sixth and Seventh regiments drilled on
Seventeenth street, near New York
avenae. 1t was at first intended to drill
on the White lot, just behind the eXecu
tive mansion and in full sight of its
windows, but the condition of the
ground would not admit of this.
On the White lot, however,
in spite of the swampy condi-
ton of the ground, the signal
corps practiced signalling all morning.
At o'clock the entire command
marched down Pennsylvania avenue to
-Four and Half street. and counter
marching. returned along the avenue,
White house, where the parade was re-
viewed by the president. Theehurches
were all well attended. The First,
Fourth and Central Presbyterian
churches held union service with the
Assembly church.

Special Cable to the Globe.
LONDON. Nov. 80. Quite sensation
has been caused in political circles, both
here and ON the continent, and wide at
tention attracted generally by semi
official note published by the Berlin
press. The note contains a protest
against the opposition of England to
the efforts of Germany in Zanzibar. 1t
asserts that anti-German tendencies
prevail in England, and the co-opera-
ton in African schemes that might be
given to Germany is through their in
f1uence denied. Germany is forced TO
conclude. says the note, "that England
does not need Germany's friendship"
Then follows what may be looked on as
warning to the insular power. ..It is
true that it IS improbable that
situations may arise in the immediate
future in which England may feel the
want of friendship from continental
power, but such condition of affairs is
not impossible" The note is but the
legitimate outcome of feeling that has
long existed in Germany over the hesi-
tation of English politicians to commit
the British government to the doubtful
policy of assisting Germany to help her
self to whatever benefits the east coast
of Africa may present. The ostensible
object of the desired o-partnership is
to root out the slave trade and to make
East Africa and Zanzibar safe for
Europeans. AS colonizer and re-
claimer Of savage countries England
has greater success than Germany and
the latter knows this, and for this
reason longs for English assistance.
But England does not propose to help
Germany coloniZe Africa. and this is
why the cooperation is denied.

Tory Member of Parliament
Who is Imprisoned For Breach
Of Trust.
LONDON, Nov. 29.-Mr. Robert Gent
Davis, member of parliament for the
Remington division of Lambeth, was
committed to prison Oh Tuesday for
contempt of court In falling to pay
e3,77S due by him as administrator OF
his uncle's estate. He appeared in court
to-day and offered to apologize and to
refund the money. The judge, how
ever, refused to interfere and the order
of arrest was handed to the sheriff for
execution. Davis debt was subscribed
by Tory members of parliament to pre-
vent the disgrace of the arrest OF a
member for breach of trust. In the
house of commons to-day, Mr.. Timothy
Healy asked what steps Mr.. Smith,
the government leader, intended to
recommend the house to take regarding
the charge against Mr.. Davis of using
money received in a fduciary capacity.
Mr.. Smith denied the existence of any
proof to justify him in asking the house
to pronounce Judgment on MIR. DAVIS;
Edmund Robertson, Liberal, reminded
the house that the expulsion of mem-
Der should be decreed for a breach OF
trust, and he asked if Mr.. Davis con-
duct did not amount to that. Mr.. Smith
protested against hasty action in a mat
ter affecting the character and honor OF
member. Mr.. Healy intimated that
unless the government acted in the
that new writ be issued for an cleo
tInn IN fill fhn cnaf hold nv Mr.
Davis.
Later-Mr. Davis has been impris-
oned. In the house of commons this
evening Mr.. Bradlaugh moved to .ad-
Journ the house in order to call atten-
tiOn to the continued imprisonment of
Mr.. Moroney in Kilmainham Jail for
contempt of court under the coercion
act. He said that Mr.. Moroney was suf-
fering in health and becoming insane.
He represented that bankruptcy pro-
ceedings had been used with the view
to compel Mr.. Moroney to diyulge GER
tain things, which Mr.. Moroney refused
to divulge. Mr.. Bradlaugh main
tanned that this refusal, although ille-
gal, was morally justified. and that
Mr.. M0roney ought not to be
punished by indefinite imprisonment.
Mr.. Balfour and Sir Richard Webster,
attorney general, contended that the
government had no power to order the
release of Moroney. 1t was his own
fault if he failed to purge him
self of his contempt. After a
long debate the motion was rejected
by vote of 1876 to $50. A desultOry dis
cussion on the Ashbourne act then fol
lowed. Finally the bill passed the
third reading by vote of POP to 1A.
During the evening report reached
the house of commons that Lord Comp
ton, the Gladstonian candidate in the
Holborn district of London, had been
elected. When the news was received
the GladStonian members stood on the
benches and cheered themselves hoarse.
A subsequent report showed thata MI.
Bruce, the Conservative candidate, was
successful. and a similar scene was en-
acted by the Conservative members. So
prolonged was the cheering that the
speaker with difficulty restored order.

LONDON, Nov. 29.-The case Of Val
lery Weidemann against Robert Horace
Walpole, the heir presumptive of the
earldom of Oxford. for breach of prom
Use was heard to-day. The plaintiff
contradicted herself and declined to
answer vital questions. Finally the
jury interfered, the trial was stopped,
and verdict for the defendant was
rendered. Not many months ago capt.
Walpole and Miss Corbin, an American
woman, were quietly married in Paris,
and from subsequent events 1t is pre-,
sumed that the affair was conducted
privately owing to Miss Weidemann's
intention of making trouble for the
groom. The principal witness was
Miss Weidemann herself. She is
bright, fresh-looking blonde, the
daughter of North German
pastor. She is person OF education
and refined manners. Although sub
jected to sharp inteyrogations' she told
her story in an Impressive manner.
She testified that Capt. WalpOle met
her in 1882 at the Hotel DAngleterre,
Constanfinople, where she was en-
ployed as goyerness to the proprletor's
daughters. He met her at dinner one
against her will. He paid her marked
attention for several days after that, and
finally asked her to marry him. at the
same time forcibly kissing her. She
angrily left him. When she returned
from the opera that night she did not
notice that the bolt-catch ON her bed
room door had been removed. She sat
at the open window few minutes, and
before she knew it Walpole was at her
side. She ordered him from the room
and tried to ring the servants bell, but
he forcibly restrained her. After con-
vincing her he loved her sincerely he
remained in her room. Next evening
he dined with her, and as an earnest OF
his intentions he placed his signet ring
Oh her finger. She has it ROW, though
Capt. WalpOle made repeated attempts
to recover it. Next day he persuaded
her to go to Cannes and gave her
e100. Arriving there she met his
mother. When she spoke of her sup
posed engagement Mrs. Walpole told her
that the captain was only her friend;
that he would be ruined if he did not
trived to have her put out of the hotel.
Capt. Walpole then sent his friend,
Capt. Darlington, to her to take her to
Paris, where he promised to meet her.
At Paris Walpole wrote her tomeet him
in Berlin, but when she arrived there
she found he had no intention of meet
ing her. She then went to her brother
in-law's, in Germany, where her child
was born in June, 1888. Witness adj
mitted by implication that when she
heard of Capt. Walpole'S intended mar
riage she sent to Miss Corbin the fol-
lowing note: II shall meet you one
day, and you will hear my curse to the
end of your eXistence-thiS for marry
ing man you have no right to marry"

the fact that it was Thanksgiving, the

the opium conspiracy case as soon as
possible, Immediately after which court
will adjourn. The principal witness on
the stand was j. W. Stone, one of the
defendants, who turned states evil
dence. He related how Haines had
made a proposition to him last March
while they were both attending the
United States court at Utica as
counsel for Gardner in the snug
Cling case, that they should
bribe the necessary house officials
at OgdenSburg and substitute spurious
article for the imported opium. He
identified letters which he had written
to both HaineS and Gardner, and de-
tailed at length how the opium was
taken from the custom house at Og-
densburg and shipped to Chicago aud
similar cans containing wooden blocks
put in their place. He identified the
cans found in Gardner's possession in
Chicago at the time of his arrest as the
ones taken from the custom house at
Ogdensburg. Judge Brunrage, counsel
for Haines. subjected the witness to a
rigid crosS-eXaminati0n. which will be
