The Herald's Sensational Story in Regard to An
Attempt to Blow Up an Atlantic
Steamer Untrue.

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-The following
relates to some statements made in the
Herald article in regard to an alleged
conspiracy to blow up a transatlantic
steamer in New York harbor, which was
sent out in these dispatches:
To the Associated Press, New York:
GENTLEMEN-My attention has been
called to an article in the New York
Herald in which it Is stated Inspector
Fred Jarvis and Chief Inspector Shore,
superintendent of the criminal investi-
eating department of Scotland yard,
London, were in America IN the interests
of the London Pines TO ferret out in
formation about the movements of Irish-
American conspirators, that Shore and
Jarvis met q representative of the Pink
ertons IN Kansas City, that three of the
Pinkertons have been at work
for years in the Irish National secret
service, one of whom communicated
directly with the Scotland Yard and that
Manager Bangs of this city admitted it to
be an IRISH Nationalist who caught him in
a trap. l wish to positively contradict
the statements above referred to and if
an Irish Nationalist or anyone else has
stated that Mr.. Bangs has made such adj
mission he has stated what Is not true.
The Pinkerton's National detective agency
has never obtained particle of evidence
against Mr.. ParnelI, and has never been
requested to hunt up evidence by the
London Times, or the British government
know of my own knowledge
that superintendent Shore has not
been in this country for a number of
years. Inspector Fred Jarvis is here in
connection with criminal matters which
have no relation whatever TO Irish
affairs, and neither he nor Mr.. Shore has
met any of our representatives in Kansas
City The recent visit of my brother
William and myself to Kansas City and
Denver was our yearly business trip to our
offices in those cities. Inspector Andrews
is unknown TO us. Yours respectfully,
ROBERT A. PINKERTON,
General superintendent.

Mr. Dudley win not be indicted by the
Federal grand jury in session at Indian
apolis His escape viii be due 60 the
charge OF Judge Woods, who, reversing
his Interpretation of the statute two
months ago, told the jury that cone
cannot be said to procure another to
commit . crime which lie never commits,
and one cannot well be said to aid
another TO do something which is never
did or made an attempt to do, -
and that the words "'counsels''
and ''aivises in the statute were TO
be considered "subject 10 the same
limitation - In other words, Justice
Woods virtually instructed the grand jury
to find no Indictment against Dudley
unless the connection between his in
famous suggestions and actual bribery
was proved up. His charge can
not be reconciled with good
morals, good law, or common sense
When a Republican Judge becomes
special pleader before grand jury to
prey ent an Indictment from being justly
found against Republican politician, it
is time to take further steps to divorce
the Judiciary from politics.

rEy-AS SppLNG PLACE

Of al the schemes ever devised to adj
vertise this state the Texas Spring Palace
is at once the most comprehensive, unique
and efficient This scheme win bring
men to Texas through the cooperation Of
the railroads, in making special excur-
sion rate to the state next June. And
the need of the state is for the world to
know Texas as il is-for people to see for
themselves the boundless possibilities
of state which in itself is
an empire, an empire in area, produce
tons and capabilities. Texas has been
advertised through newspapers, PAM
phletS, immigration agents and other
wise, and some benefit has resulted: but
these efforts have been largely neutral
lied by Misrepresentation, by Lack of
persistent, organized endeavor on the
part of the state itself and. perhaps, by
the utteranceS of some Texans them
selves.
Texas has grown III population and
made progress, but not to that extent
which was possible; Texas win continue
TO grow and to progress, but not to that
extent which is possible through intelli-
gent and energetic effort, and no effort
will bring to Texas that development and
progress which is possible that is not di-
rected TO ways and means for inducing
people TO come and see for themselves.
And this is the purpose of the projectors
of the Texas Spring Palace. This
palace will be in all its parts an
exhibit of the productions of Texas, min
eral, agricultural, horticultural, etc.,
etc. Nothing about the palace or within
it will be used unless it be a Texas prod
uct: towers of lumber, coal, clay, cot
ton. sugar, wheat, corn, oats, sorghum,
millet, vegetables and fruits, and pillars
of iron. granite aud building stoue-an,
of and from and for Texas-win
tell to every one who sees the marvellous
tale of this grand empire s inevitable
future. The brain of Texas architect
win conceive, the cunning of Texas
artisan will execute and the fair hand of
Texas woman win embelIish all. This
exhibit win be Texas Spring Palace.
And the cooperation of railroads,
in and out of Texas, will make
. special excursion rate to the state in
June that wiz attract men of brain and
men of Drawn, men Of money and men Of
enterprise, TO see this land about which
some whisper Of good or evil report may

OUR BOOK TABLE.

THE CHINESE AND THE CHINESE CUES
TION-By James A. Whitney L. L. D. Sec
ond edition. Tidballs' book company, 20
Warren street, New York.
Books of this character, unlike the
popular novel, reach their second edition
by force Of intrinsic merit and not by a
passing freak. The first edition of this
werk was issued eight years ago, and the
Chinese problem still confronts states
men and occasions anxiety among
thoughtful patriots If the oft-repeated
axiom, 'Self-preservation is the first
law of nature, - be accepted, and that
what is true in the individual holds good
for nation, anxious thought and just
political measures find full scope for eXer-
else III the question of foreign immigra-
ton Pre- eminently stands forth the
aggressive movement of the habItants of
the far east, and it is fast Fastening
to point where the decision must be be-
tween a Mongolian and Caucasian SUI
premaey in these United States of Am
erica. The teeming hordes of Chinese
have, since the Burlingame treaty, been
pouring into our land and, like the frogs
that plagued Egypt, are likely to cover
the face of it unless some means are
taken to check the tide. There is no
right reason for perpetuating mistakes of
the past; that the right of citizenship
has been unwisely extended, few men OF
this day viii deny, and there ought to be
no reason why the follieS of the past, if
not remedied, should at least not be re-
peated Mr.. Whitney deals with this
subject exhaustively. He first takes up
the race, their work, their institutions
and their character, showing the extent
OF their in tiuence IN former times; then
their modern relations with the nations
of the west: their advent and presence
in this country, and finally the methods
dictated by policy and law for their elimi-
nation from the American people.
The larger part of the volume is Justly
given to the political aspect of the ques-
ton, and much light is thrown upon the
causes that have led to varied legislation,
ana from the author s showing there is
ample reason for immediate and decisive
action in so grave matter as is threat
ened by Chinese invasion on the Pacific
coast which stiTl goes on Illegally A
remedy suggested is that every Chinaman
iii the country be compelled to register
himself, his residence, his occupation and
his removal from place TO place, and that
each one be supplied with a certificate
guarded against transfer, the possession
of which shall give him the privilege of

o! come, mine own, to Me,
1 dwelt on earth, yea, died for your salvation,
But blind, We viii not see.
Come as you are, beguiled, and worn and weary;
The night VIII soon be done,
The way is bleak, the path is rough and dreary,

Though dark it be, yet am ever near you;
See, am by your side;
My feet have worn this very path. Why fear you

And can dry the tears your eyes are shedding
And ease your heavy load

That We were born too late.
Beloved! turn to me; the world is hollow,
But sure this path, and straight.
Ye say the way is long-thes shadows darken,

o, Lord, we come, and worship Thee, and say:
Lord if Thou wilt. Thou sure can make US clean;
O. let us not secluded live Away,
Although we know we re lepers poor and mean!
o, let US not in wales of misery live;
Forgive us cur transgreSsions, o, forgive.
We stand to-day, with many fostering sore,
And cry aloud to Thee with wailing cry,
And ask Thee, gracious one; just time more
To cast upon US thy forgiving eye;
Have mercy Us, for we're lepers mean:
O, touch us with Thy hand and make clean.
o. Worthy Master, hear, O, hear our prayer:
Our feet are deep in shifting sands and clay;
Let not our pleas be lost in empty air,
But Christward may they wing their falt ring

Like sailless ships that adverse winds careen,
We wander way less, crying loud, ''unclean.''

There has arisen dispute in regard to the

say man in barrel went over the rapids, bat
did not go over the falls; whilst others say he

TIE GAZETTE answers from recollec-

Our recollection is that the man in the
barrel-shaped boat went over the falls,
making the dangerous trip in safety.
More than twenty five years ago a small
steamboat, with three men On board,
made the same perilous trip. The men
escaped without serious hurt, but the
boat was nearly filed with water.

The tariff discussion i'll the senate has
developed state of things that is not
pleasing to either party. On more than
one occasion Republican senators, mostly
from the West, have shown a disposition
to kick over the traces against certain
clauses in the senate bill peculiarly OBJ
noxious TO their constituents. On the
other hand, several Democratic senators
have given votes that could not be re-
conciled with the Mills bill. It is evil
dent that there are Democratic
representatives in congress nearer
the Republican than the Democratic
idea of the tariff and Republicans who
are Democrats upon this subject. If
party demands were relaxed and each
man permitted to represent his constitu-
ents and himself, it is apparent that i'm
portant notifications would be made of
existing duties. This might be the better
plan after all 10 dispose of veXatIous
issue. A settlement upon this basis
would be recognized as permanent, and
not exposed to constant agitation, neces-
sarily injurious to the interests of COM
