Ip IT is true that we are again to have
in this city disgusting exposure Of the
disposition Of dead horses such as we
had two years ago, the Council would do
we'll to take immediate steps to institute
some other method Of disposing of these
animals than by contract. Two years
ago the community was shocked by learn
ing that the contractor to carry to the
equine Gehenna the animals that died
in the city was feeding their bodies to
hogs, and that the swine go fat.ed were
disposed of to Chinese butchers. Whether
the hog meat found its way to white
mems tables WAS not made clear; but it
is certainly outrageous that, at any time
or under any circumstances, meat used
for human food should have been fatted
upon the carcasses of horses that had
died of disease. We hope that thor
oush Investigation will be had into the
present charges, and if it be proven that
the contractor has repeated the disgust
ing ofenses of his predecessor there
shall be found some signal punishment
for him that will insure US against q
repetition of this abominable practice.

TIE iurv in the case Of Police Office

TEE Jury in the case of Police Officer
Joseph Wallace, Of San Francisco, who,
in the exercise of his petty authority, de-
liberately shot to death a man named
Albert II. Rice, have brought in yer
dict of murder in the first degree. Al
though there was no greater fagrancy in
this case of shooting down of a citizen
by ar officer than there was in many
others that are recalled to cur mind, yet
the peculiar outcome of it makes us feel
that hereafter the lives of citizens will be
in less jeopardy than they have hereto
fore been from peace officers who are sc
ready with their pistols. There have
been great number of people Neagled
in this State whose taking off has moi
been punished, and should Wallace
swing, as he will if the verdict Of the jury
is carried out, wholesome lesson will
have been taught to those "preservers ol
the peace" who believe that because they
are armed with ia little brief authority
they can do as they please without be-
ing called to account.

Mr.. CleVeland,s Address.

mr. Cleveland,S Address.
New YORK, October 1O.-A large as
semblage gathered tonight at Cooper
Union at the services in memory of the
late Congressman S. s. Cox. Among
those on the platform were ex-President
Cleveland. Mayors Grant and Cooper,
General Sherman, General Pryor, Chap
lain Milburn, Of the House of Represen-
tatives, Senator Aldrich, George w. Cur.
tis and John A. Cockerill. The services
opened with prayer by Rev. DIR. Nc
Sweeney, after which ex.President
Cleveland was introduced as the presid.
ing officer of the evening.
Ex. President Cleveland paid high
tribute to the character of the dead states
man. After speaking at length of his
public spirit and high integrity, Mr..
Cleveland said: "But to thus conte1n-
plate the value of unselfish public use-
fulness, is to restrict a reflection which
has sombre coloring. What is the con-
dition of the times when we may Justly
and fairly exalt the memory Of a de.
ceased public servant because he was
true and honest and faithful to his
trust? Are we maintaining a saf Q
standard to public duty when the ex-
istence Of these virtues, instead
of being general, is exceptional
enough to cause congratulation l beg
you to take home with you among the
reflections which this occasion shall
awaken, an appreciation Of the truth that
If we are to secure for ourselves all the
blessings of our free institutions, we
must better apprehend the interest we
have at stake in their scrupulous main
tenance, and must exact of those whom
we trust in public Office a more rigid ad.
herence to the demands of public duty"
Among other speakers was Congress-
man Proctor Knott, whose address was
the warm tribute of personal friend.

NON.MINERAL LANDS,
Secretary Noble Overrules n Decision
by Com mi ssiOner Sparks.

ocCActdEy NODle u DeClSlOn
by Com missioner Sparks.
WASHINGTON, October 10.-In the case
of the Central Pacific Railroad Company,
Secretary Noble today overruled the decis-
ion of Commissioner Sparks, made May
3, 1887, which required the company to
file with it's list of lands selected under
it's grants, the usual non-mineral affida-
Wit in use in agricultural cases generally.
The practice in the case Of land giant
railroad companies is for an agent to
make out lists of landsjwithin the grant
and submit the same to the Depart
ment with an affidavit to the effect
that the plats and surveyors returns
show the lands to be non-mineral. Min
eral lands are reserved from the grant.
An ordinary agricultural claimant must
take oath that he knows from personal
inspection that the land he claims is
non-mineral in character. The Secretary
holds that inasmuch as the existing re-
quirements we're complied with by the
company at the date of selection, no re-
tractive rule should be applied to it.
These selections were made during the
years 1885 and 1886. A similar ruling
was made in the cases OF the Southern
Pacific and Atlantic and Pacific Railroad
Companies. These decisions will releas @
from suspension and pass to patent about
six million acres of land within these
grants.

Manning Vfndicated.

WASHINGTON, October 10 The officials
of the Treasury Department have been
criticised in some papers for making
public an anonymous communication &C.
companying a conscience contribution
received at the Treasury Department in
which the writer insinuated that con-
tribution of $1,000, sent while Mr.. Man
ming was Secretary, had been appropri-
ated by that gentleman to his own use.
The fact is when the letter was made
public by Assistant Secretary Batcheller
few days ago, he prepared statement
to accompany it to the effect that the
Department records showed that 1899
had been received and covered into the
Treasury on the date referred to. By
accident this statement became separated
from the anonymous letter, and conse-
quently was omitted from the reports
telegraphed abroad.

In 1879 the Treasury Department re.

In 1879 the Treasury Department re-
quired that stamp should be placed
upon all packages of opium passed
through the Custom House. This gave
the detectives an easy clue to opium Of
fsyed for sale in che market that had bsen
smuggled. A short time ago the Treas
urer issued instructions abolishipg the
stamp, and now the Chinese opium mer.
chants in San Francisco complain that
the great bulk of the opium in the mar
ket has been smuggled, for it is sold for
far less than the merchants who pay the
required duties can afford to sell it for.
Somebody is making large money out OF
the action of the Treasury.

The master Printers.

ST. LOUIS, October 10.-The National
Typothet@ considered the apprentice
system and eight-hour agitation today.
The committee recommended the re-.
adoption Of the old style of apprentice
ship, and the report was fsvorably re-
ceived. With reference to the eight
hour agitation, resolution was adopted
that in the opinion of the United
Typothete, there is nothing in the state
of the printing trade of the country which
justifies any reduction in the hours of
labor, and therefore recommending each
local typothee to take such action as in
its opinion may be necessary to meet the
issue, it it should be seriously considered.

in which he says: Reports were sent
broadcast over the country that crops in

what seemed disaster, Dakota surprises
the world with succession of splendid

distances every State and Territory in

THERE is in the human mind that is
we'll balanced always spontaneous OBJ
lection to the violations of the canons Of
good taste. We cannot define these
limits or trace out the exact lines of de-
narration; but every sensible man
knows intuitively when the barrier is
overpassed and the boundary is violated.
We take it that there is no American of
sound sense and principles who does not
feel that this limit has been set at naught
in the case of Mr.. Blaine. The Repub-
licans claim that he inspired the as
semblage of the Pan.American Con-
gross that he laid the basis for such
q conference when LIE was the
Chief Minister of Garfield; and
that thr ough his instrumentality as q
great officer OF the United States he got
the Congress together. Historically this
claim is not true. The Congress of the
United States is the body that is entitled
to the credit. But admit that Garfield
worked the assemblage into existence,
what then? As Secretary of State he was
enabled to do 80, and as such official he
should not sit in body where his high
position under one of the Governments
represented would give that Government
preponderance of influence in such an
Independent body. He is not delegate.
He is not legitimately member of the
Congress. How then can he, in reason,
preside over body of which he would
become part only by an act of govern.
mental egotism? He could only become
q delegate by species of self-appoint-
ment, and he can only preside over it
by q species of diplomatic usurpation.
True, the All-Americas Congress would
elect him. They are, in measure, his
guests, and out of courtesy they could
not refuse q boon of the character
named when asked by generous host.
And what less ia it than asking to
put his name forward, no matter
how done? It would not be sup
posed that the gentlemen from the
neighboring states could be so un-
gracious as to refuse to place Blaine in
the presidency of the All-American Con-
gress when Mr.. Blaine directly or in
directly signifies his desire for the honor.
Gentlemen who have been 80 finely
treated as these stranger delegates have
been by the United States Government
could hardly refuse to give their vote
for Mr.. Blaine, when they look upon him,
as far as their mission is concerned, as
the embodiment of the United States
Government itself. This is not ques-
ton of Republicanism or of Democracy !;
it is question of decency.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
New YORK, October 10.-The Inman
line steamer City of New York, which
grounded last night on entering the har-
Dor, is still aground in the lower bay.
The first report was that the big
steamer had. grounded in the channel
last night, but that was mistake. She
lies hard and fast little east of buoy
5H. The company this morning ex-
pected to get her atloat at 8 O'Clock this
afternoon. One of the big tugs which
went to her assistance returned to quar-
antine before noon and reported that all
previous efforts to float the vessel had
been unavailing. This tug did not con-
firm the report that the steamer WAS
sinking in quicksand, but brought news
Of considerable excitement existing
among the passengers Oh board.
THE STEAMERS PASSENGER LIST.
She carried 500 first-class passengers
and IT'S second-cabin passengers. The
steerage contained hundreds of Others
Among the frst-cabin passengers was
Wilson Barrett, the English tragedien.
This afternoon the tugs abandoned
their endeavors to get the vessel afoat,
and decided to wait for high water to.
night to get her off The small steam
boats, Fletcher and Jean E. Moore,
landed the bulk OF the steamships cabin
passengers at the Inman dock during the
afternoon.
Among the cabin passengers taken off
the City of New York by steamer vera
George Gould and wife. The latter was
ill ans had to be carried aboard the other
boat. 1t was since learned that Mrs.
Gould's illness is not serious.
The big steamer seems to stand as if
she were on a dry dock. Her bow 10
more elevated than her stern. Her twin
screws stand almost clear of the water,
and she is visibly listed to port.
HOW THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED.
The pilot who was in charge when the
steamer ran aground, said he had been
pilot for seven years ana never met with
an accident before. He stood on the
bridge with six officers of the vessel,
when, looking forward. he saw pilot
boat crossing the steamers bow bearing
torch. He ported to avoid colliding
with her and ran aground before he could
starboard his vessel. The steerage
passengers were so wild and excited that
they wanted to lynch the pilot, but were
soon subdued by Captain Lewis and his
officers. The steamer Star took the re.
mainder of the cabin passengers and q
good deal of the baggage to the city this
afternoon. The steerage passengers were
left aboard. It was determined tonight
to have the tugs try and haul the steamer
off the mud bank at high tide.
At midnight the steamer is still on the
mud bank.
The steerage passengers were landed
in Jersey City at about O'Clock in the
morning.

Bones of Lord Howe.

TROY, N. Y, October 10 "A dispatch
from Ticonderoga says that village is
greatly excited over a discovery made
today by workmen digging sewer. The

bear the inscription and date of the
death of Lord Howe, who was killed at
the head of his regiment at the battle of
Ticonderoga, July 8, 1853. in a battle
with the French forces. The remains
will probably be re-interred, at once, in
the village cemetery.
