 WASHINGTON, April 3.
 The German vessels Sperber and Alexan- drine, which are now on their way to Samoa
 to replace the wrecked vessels, are not very would have decided advantage over the American vessels, owing to their superior armament and speed. The corvette Alex andrins is wood, iron and steel of 2,87S tom

 fS feet draught. She is of 15 knots speed.
 Her battery is made up of 12 51k inch four

Neither of the vessels are armored, but it will be noted that their speed is about fifty per cent. greater than the American vessels ordered to Samoa and their guns of greater range.

 DENVER, Col, April 2.-W. B. Stephens, alias Spencer, was arrested here yesterday afternoon charged with being the principal in the robbery of the First National bank, in which President Moffat lost $21, ,000. The information on which the arrest was made came from William Levy, a mining man from St. Paul, who knew of Stephens shady record in the Northwest. President Moffat, Teller Keely and Cashier Wood visited the iail after the arrest but could not make up their minds as to Stephens identity. :; Sub sequently they reluctantly admitted that while the resemblance was exact. the pris- oner was not the robber. Stephens was then locked up on charge of forgery. "; H. Clark. gambler of St. Louis, is still held as an accomplice in the bank robbery.

BOUND FOE HOME.
A Part of the Missouri Contingent
Leave the National Capital.

WASHINGTON, April q, 1885,
Col. W. L. Morsey, of Warrenton,
Col. Frank Buchanan, of Rails
county and other Missourians from
the seventh congressional district
started for home this evening. They
were in excellent spirits. Morsey
got his man for postmaster at War
renton appointed, and Buchanan
feels certain of being appointed
Marshal of the Eastern Missouri
District at the proper time. Bu-
chanan is opposed by the St. Louis
congressman, but that fact seems to
make him cheerful. He is endorsed
by a number of the St. Louis Silk
Stockings and has a practically
unanimous support from the coun-
try.
Maj.-Gen. Billy Ryder and J. E.
Gillingwater, the latter of st. Louis
and Mexico, are two Missouri lnsti-
tutions at present attracting atten-
ton at Washington. Everybody in
Missouri knows the General. He
says he has the solid Endorsement
of the Irish Republican brigade Of
St. Louis for anything he wants,
''or Something Eq ally as Good
Gillingwater was the superinten-
dent of ''nigger immigration in St.
Louis during the November cleo
ton. His claims are heavy. Ryder,
Gillingwater and Niedringhaus are
putting forth claims that confuse
people not familiar with the situa-
ton. Niedringhaus says it was his
money that carried St. Louis and
gave the Republicans a majority in
the House of the Fifty-First Con-
gress. Sen. Ryder says it was his
eloquence and poetry in Kerry
Patch that saved the city and smash
ed the Democrats. Gillingwater
says it was his services as "nigger
immigration" agent and superin-
tendent of the blocks Of five that
carried the day. Ryder throws
cold water on Gillingwater's as
sumption and Gillingwater sneers
at Ryder's pretensions. The Gen
eral says he will "cut windows in
the hide of the --- if he keeps
on deprecating his claims" 1t is
understood that Gillingwater wants
to be an Indian agent, and all the
General asks is a timber Inspector
ship in Nevada, where he can
"bring the mining lords to terms"
Both of these statesmen are camp
ing on the trail of Secretary Noble.
Both have formally repudiated Fill
ley. 1t is fashionable to do so now.
The General says that Filley is
"no account" and Glllingwater
says that the "old man" has had
his day. Ryder and Gilllngwater
are posing as silk Stockings.

COMPLEMENTARY to the efforts to
connect the oceans with canals,
and to flood the Sahara, are the
efforts to make some of the great
inland cities of the world seaports.
Manchester will soon be open to
ships; and there will probably be
no delay in the proposition to lead
Paris down to the sea by a water
way. Rome is also to be made a
seaport b. a canal, which, indeed,
already exists and only needs to
be rebuilt in parts to cur it
against freshets of the Tiber.
Meanwhile the North Sea and the
Baltic are to be connected by a
canal commenced in 1887.

THERE will be any amount of
fine writing in the newspapers to-
day about the important historical
event, the one hundredth anniver-
sary of which Is being celebrated
throughout the whole country
and the occasion is worthy of all
that will be said of it. It may
profitably be borne in mind, how
ever, that we have still much to do
for the realization of the ideal
government that was in the minds
efthe trainers of the constitution
and whose chief executive respon-
sibilities were placed first in the
hands of George Washington. We
have not yet clearly and unmistak-
ably reached government by the
people, and we are net muci,
nearer to it than we were a century
ago. One house of the legislative
branch of the national government
is undeniably the creature of the
money power, and in every State
of the Union we must have ballot
reform of the most searching and
sweeping character before the
actual verdict of the people can be
rendered at every election of pub
lie officers. Let the grand cele-
bration of the Washington inaugu-
raj 60 Oh, for it was the beginning
of the best government on earth to-
day. But it is IN appropriate
time, too, for reflection upon some
dangers that are threatening and
for determination that they must
be ayerted by the wise and patriotic
action of the whole peopIe.-Kan-
