LONDON's JEkYLL AND HYDE.
A Possible Clue to the White
chapel Fiend.

LONDON. Sept. 1.-THE inquest to-day in
the case of the woman whose headless body
was discovered IN the Whitechapel district
yesterday morning was conducted with
closed doors, and extraordinary precautions
are taken to prevent the medical testimony
in the case being made public. The rumor is
afioat but cannot be traced to an authorita-
tive source, that one of the doctors has
pointed out that the surgical work of the
fiend who committed the murder bears a re-
markable resemblance in certain features to
peculiarities which have frequently been
noted by the profession in the work of well
known London surgeon, man of the high
est standing in his profession, but exceed
ingly eccentric. The police maintain dis
Greet silence, and refuse to either deny or to
verify the rumor They appear to be active
however. and their conduct indicates that
they have clue of some sort

LORDS OLE THE PURSE.

In states further east the organization
among the farmers is the grange, in place
of the alliance. This has national organ
iZation, and Col. BLANCHARD is grand
master of the national grange. In a
recent interview he sets forth the cen
tral aims of the farmers represented, so
far as general questions are involved.
One of these is the election of United
States senators by the people. He says
the farmers don't like to see the wealth
a man has give him a seat in the SEN
ate.' There is good deal worth con-
sideration in the idea. The senate orig
mated in aristocratic notions and dis
trust of the people. and it has become
pretty much a club Of lords of the
purse. 1t cannot be abolished without
its consent. which is too improbable to
be worth much consideration. There is
a better chance for its election by the
people. This would put it further away
from the trusts, mOnOpOlieS and corrupt
influences that now so often prevail.
The people could not be bought. The
farmers will have a good deal of aid if
they are earnest in this matter.

dian and Northern Pacific and
Manitoba Railways.

Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, Sept lit was an
nouneed authoritatively to-day by gentle
man connected with the incorporation of the
Helena & Canadian railway. that work will
be begun on the road Immediately dis
patch was received from New York Statign
that Sir Alexander T. Gait owner of the
Gait railroad in Canada, and Ex-Governor S.
:. Hauser. and W. G.. Conrad. of Mantana
have contracted far the building of rail
road from Lethbridge. the terminus of the
Gait railroad. to Fit Benton, to connect at
that point with the Northern Pacific's con-
templated Billings d Benton road, and thence
to Great Falls, where it will meet the
Montana Central. The agreement was made
with the understanding that the road will be
extended to Helena as soon as practicable.
The agreement is the outcome of the organ
ization OF the Fit. Benton Construction COM
pany and Montana and Canada Railroad
company, each of which corporation filed
articles of incorporation last March. While
the whole work cannot be completed this
year. that portion extending from Lethbridge
to Fl. Benton, distance of about 100 miles
can be finished. Lethbridge is northwest of
FIT. Benton. The route viii be southwesterly,
passing on the western slope of of the Sweet
Grass Hills. The line of the proposed Mon
lana and Canada railway has been somewhat
changed from the route contemplated when
the articles of incorporation were filed. AS
originally proposed the route left Fit. Ben
ton and Great Falls off the line,
crossing as it will the MarIas valley. this new
road will penetrate one of the most fertile
agricultural regions in Montana. of which
but little is known. 1t will also be the means
of developing the mountains Of mineral in
Sweet Grass Hill. which have been but
slightly explored, but are known to be valua-
Bile. Sir Alexander Cali, who recently W ent
to London, succeeded in placing all bonds
necessary and decided to Immediately begin
work. The new enterprise is of great i'm
pOrtance to the future of Montana 1t gives
another outlet to the east via the Canadian
Pacific, as Calls road meets that
transcontinental line at Medicine Hat The
extensive coal beds near Lathbridge will
supply fuel to the vast Northern Montana
region and the enterprise leaves no room

Northern Pacific company to build the Bill

NIAHONE's ECLIPSE.

President HARRIsON'S attempt to con-
struct a Republican party in the South
out of the respectable white element is
a miscarriage. Virginia was selected as
the ground for the initial experiment,
and the way things look down there
Just now it is going to be an awfully
abortive attempt. The Republican lead
ership in Virginia was an exception to
the other Southern states. There was
none of the carpetbag element, but on
the contrary the party was led by ma
tives who belonged to the upper classes.
and who were fair representatives of
the be Virginia society, thus giving to
the party a feature of responsibility
that is to be found nowhere else in the
South. 1t was understood to be Gen.
HARRISON's desire to reconstruct South
ern Repubicanism on the Virginia
basis, and for this reason he was par
ticularly anxious to have the Re
publicans win a victory in Vir-
ginia at the coming state election.
But, with that singular facility
he has of putting administration fat
into the fire, Chairman QUAY spoilt the
whole business by helping MALONE to
nominate himself fol governor. Instead
of attracting the respectable element to
the Republican party, MAHONE'S NOM
inatiOn has had the effect of driving
out all the white leaders of his party
and forcing them to come ont in sup
port of the Democratic candidate.
Among the prominent Virginia Repub-
licars who have openly repudiated
MAHONE and declare their purpose to
support MCKINNEY are two eX-United
States senators, LEWIS and RIDDLE
BERGER; Congressman YOsT, of the
Shenandoah valley district; Gen.
GROVER, late chairman of the Repub-
lican state committee; eX-COngreSsman
WISE; Gen. WICKHAM, president of the
Chesapeake & Ohio railroad, state
senator and a former chairman of the
Republican state committee; ex-GOv.
WILLIAM +. CAMERON, who has the
distinction of being the only Republican
ever elected governor of the state. and
a long list of others of equal celebrity.
This Republican diSaffectiOn will settle
MAHoNE's hash, if he ever had any
chance of election, and will completely
Squelch the presidents ambition to
build up high tone party in the South.
Possibly Chairman QUAY had it in
mind to give the administration black
eye when he went into cO-partnership
with MAHONE in Virginia politics.

A King for q Day.

A report was current in the court house
yesterday that the mayors private secretary,
Edward W. White, had won $4,000 in the
drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery. The
number of Mr.. Whites ticket was 81 ,238
Somehow this number strayed into list of
the winners and Mr.. White was Immediately
deluged with congratulations. At first he
showed signs of credulitv. There was a
charm in being saluted as rich man, and he
hesitated to investigate the Iumor. He de-
cided not to go home and get his ticket nor
send any kilograms to New Orleans. Nor
would he buy any beer kegs, or do anything
gay. He would simply enjoy being king for
day while the day lasted, and then, if the
rumor proved groundless. he would make a
ghost Of the fellow that started it-or per-
haps he would make two bas reliefs of him
and send him to Whitechapel as a model for
Jack the Ripper to rip by.

HE KNOWS HIS BUSINESS.
Monroe Gives the Dock Managers
Quiet Snub.

Il quiet SnuD.
LONDON, Sept. IL. The dock managers
sent representative to-day to Chief of Po-
lice Monroe imploring him to take steps to
prevent the striking men from posting pick
cts about their premises for the purpose of
intimidating men who have been engaged to
work on the docks. These men. they say
are willing and anxious to go to work but are
frightened off by the threatening language
and menaeing insinuations of the pickets.
The chief of police replied that he held him
self ready to protect the companies in their
rights. and if these were being interfered
with he would take such steps as seemed
necessary to prevent a continuance
of such interference. Their proposal,
however, involved fine ques-
ton Of law and he should prefer
before taking any action to advise
himself as to the point. The pickets proba-
ply had a right. under the law, to accost per
sons on the public highway and advise them
to refrain from work. and if their action
amounted to no more than this. he did not
see his way clear TO using the police for their
suppression Just the point where advice
stopped and intimidation begun might be
difficult matter to determine, the more es-
pecially if persons who are claimed to have
been inundated make no complaint. He
advised the dock managers to reduce their
complaint to writing and to indicate at the
same time what particular law or ordinance
they claimed the pickets were violating.
