Thest. Louis GIo5e- Dsmocra' in an article

The 81. Louis G'o5e- Damocrai in an article
on northern men at the South. says:
"Thcexperionce Of northern immigrants
many thousands Of whom have gone. South
rom time 10 time. has not been such as to
iustifv others in going without some better
assurance OF Just ana friendly treatment
than tho horid rhetoric of au after-dinner
speech.
When the northern man undertakes TO
live up 10 the views and teachings brought
with him from his old home ho quickly
discovers that hbortv Of speech and opin-
ion has been left behind"
What unmitigatcd and malicious ro' and
misrepresentation. The average northern
man who settles in the South very soon
realizes that the civilization Of his adopted
home. GOOD government. and his own ma
tcral interests depend upon white supre-
macy. and therefore aligus himself with
virtue and intelligence against ignorance
and vice

ward of the nation. Our Providence con.

tcmpory says:
THE idea Is responsible for good deal
Of imprcvidencc among the southern ne
eroes, and for a good deal Of waiting foi
the help Of others in matters political and
industrial instead Of helping themselves
The contrary notion, the concep
ton of the negro as the nations ward, Is
only another form Of tho old idea that ht
was entitled along with his freedom e
forty acres and n mule One might thins
That that idea was pretty well exploded 10y
this time, hut many people, both North
and South. seem to be still expecting the
fulllmcnt of some such promise. The
sooner the idea is abandoned the better Il
will be for the negroes themselves and ton
the nation. IL which every one must learn

GREAT GUNS,
Two Heavy Guns Completed For the Navy
The Largest Yet Made.

Two Heavy Guns Completed For the Navy
The Largest Yet Made.
WASHINGTON, May 24.-The ordnance
bureau of the Navy Department has COM
pleted two of the ten.inch steel
breech-loading rifles for the Monitor
Mianontomwah. They are the largest
and most POWERFUL guns yet turned
out for the navy. One of them
is at Annapolis awaiting trial and
the other has been fully tested with most
gratifying results, as it compared favor
bly, with the best products of renowned
European ordnance works. The mIzze
velocity attained was 1000 feet pei
second. The range could not be deter.
mined owing to the lack of sufficiently
large proving ground, but it is estimated
at ten miles.
Soon after the contracts are awarded
for the construction of the new $500 tor
gunboats preparations will begin at the
Washington ordnance yard for the manu-.
facture of their peculiar ordnance. which
is to be made up entirely Of rapid fire
guns of extraordinary caliberS as COM
pared with guns of this type now
i'm use on the naval vessels. The
largest guns of this kind will be six inches
in caliber, but owing to the simplicity
and compactness of their mechanism anc
construction they will not materially ex.
coed in weight the inch rifles of the kline
now in use, although they are fully equal
to them in range and accuracy and are
vastly superior in offensive power by rea.
son of their rapidity of fire.

The Settlement of Town Lot Contests
Leads to n RiOt-The Troops Called On.
GUTHRIE. l. T., May 25.-The soldiers
were Thursday called out for the first
time since the opening of Oklahoma, and
for several hours Guthrie was practically
under martial law. The meetings, he'd
every night for week by the men who
lost their lots through contests and by the
opening of streets, eliminated in a riot
One of the best lots in Guthrie was
awarded by the board Of arbitration to o
man named Driscoll. of Chicago An old
man named Diemer, of Kansas,
occupied the front of the same
lot with tent Driscoll erected o
building on rollers, ready to shove it te
the front as soon as Diemer should va.
cate. Recently the Council passed an
ordinance empowering the marshal tt
eject every person whose claim for loi
had been rejected by the arbitrator
board. This proceeding would affect
over 900 persons. The city government
made a test case of the Driscoll-DiemeI
contest. The marshal attempted to re.
move Demer and his tent Immediately
a mob of /, 300 men collected and drove
the marshal away. The mob was about
to attack the city hall, when Captain
Cavanaugh arrived and dispersed them.
after which the city authorities resumed
the work of ejecting Diemcr. Demar
fought like tiger and had to be dragged
from his tent to the street. Dri-c1l's
building YVES rolled forward. The mot
atten p ed to tear the house to pieces. tut
this time the authorities were able to re.
pulse The angry men without the aid OF
the soldiers. At night soldiers guarded
the principal streets and more trouble is
anticipated when the work of ejectment is
again begun.

Appropriations For the Current Year-A
Possible Deficiency.
WASHINGTON. May a4-The Pension
Appropriation act for the current fiscal
year appropriated $50. 400, 900 regularly
and Sc, 600 600 extra to meet q threatened
deficiency, making the total appropria-
lions $50, 10000 This whole amount will
be necessary to meet the demands Of PEN
sioners, aud it may be that there will be q
deficiency, but il is said at the Pension
Office that there is no truth in the state
ment that sos, 900. 600 will be expended for
pensions during the fiscal year.
H. G. Bell. chief of the agents division
of the Pension Office, who Is entrusted
with the duty of seeing to the expendi-
'ure of pension appropriations. says that
it is true that the SSS 400. 900 appropriated
for pensions has oil been drawn from the
treasury. but that more than SIG, OO0, 900 Of
the amount drawn out is in the hands Of
the eighteen United States pension agents
with which TO meet the payments which
will fall due June 4. 1t Is thought this
amount will nearly suffice until July 1.
when the appropriation for the next fiscal
year will become available, though it is
said that some of the agents may run out
before that
Bell says that ths appropriation for the
next fiscal year-SSo 400. 0O0-is too small
and that there will be a def siency of
about SIS 100000 Commissioner Black,
he says, did not ask for enough money to
prevent a deficiency even on the basis OF
expenditures then existing. The pension
roll at the time the appropriation was
made was, and is still. constantly increas-
ing, so that it is evident that il SIS. 400, 600
be expended this year $780, 400. 900 for the
next year will bs wholly inadequate.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., May % John G.
Bradley, cashier Of the Merchants Ma.
tional Rank. is said to hnv. been under
the surveillance Of officers OF the law at
his residence in Fairhayen. He is charged
with emb, zzlemcnt, the shortage being
discovered by Bank Examiner Cooley in
his examination Friday. The bank off,
GERS declined to give any information.
Prosecuting Attorney Daley is now In
consultation with the officers of the bank,
and it is rumored that Bradley will be ar
rested. Tie loss to the bank may reach
100000. 1t is said that Bradley and
Charles w. Palmer discounted notes with.
out the knowledge of the directors, and 1t
has covered a space Of several years.
Palmer has been arrested also.
The card was issued yesterday after
noon by Ex-Governor Bigelow, president
of the Merchants National Bank:
10 the Public:
Certain irregularities have been found in The
bank involving the cashier and assistant teller.
There will probably be u considerable loss to
the bank, which will not, however, impair its
capital. 1t is not yet ascertained whether
those officials have been the benefciaries Of
these irregularities, but notes have been dis
counted which were not presented to the board
OF directors for their approval, and the loss on
this kind of paper can not at this moment be
stated.
Mr.. Bigelow subsequently said: ~ do
not think that the entire surplus (S1Oa Ooo)
will be lost, and hope that it will not ex.
ceAd half that amount"
Teller Palmer has made full confes.
sion of all the transactions. Palmer is
interested in the manufacture of patent
melicinn, and one story current is to the
effect that he borrowed considerable
money to extend his business, and, being
unable to meet his payments, tided over
by discount notes for the parties of whom
lie had borrowed money. This practice,
it is stated, was discovered by Cashier
Bradley, but Palmer induced him
to keep it quiet, promising to
take up the notes as fast as they became
due. Failing to do this other notes We're
discounted until the cashier and teller be-
came deeply involved and We're compelled
TO keep quiet for their own safety. The
general opinion last night was that the
affair was much worse than the bank off,
Gals care to admit. Cashier Bradley spent
last night in the sheriff's Office and Palmer
was at his own home, in charge of a deputy.
Is very popular. He was prominent in
church circles and was also prominent in
military circles. Palmer is about forty
years old and has been with the bank
nearly twenty years.
