THE jury In the Wait libel case
was out but seventeen hours, in-
stead Of twenty-seven rs we stated
last week. Immediately on retir-
ing the vote stood as follows: six for
conviction, five for acquittal and
one blank. Soon after, they sent q
note TO the judge asking II g verdic,
for conviction and . recommended
ton for nominal punishment would
be received. Upon the court In
forming them that the verdict must
be unconditional to be received by
him, they remained out until the
next day at 10 q. m, when they
returned q verdict Of guilty. A new
trial will be asked for, and II
refused, the case will be appealed TO
the supreme court on error. How
far the costs In the case may have
Influenced the Jury can only be
guessed at, but it II certain that
many influential citizens Of Saline
county denounced the prosecuting
witness for having brought the case
In Saline county, aud making that
county liable for the costs In case Of
an acquittal. The jury's manifest
desire that only . nominal punish
ment should be inflicted showed
that their sympathy was with the
defense, aud that the conviction
was only TO save Saline county from
paying the costs.-LincOin Beacon.

By their platform, adopted last week,
the Republicans of Massachusetts call on
their senators and representatives in Con-
gress ito defend sound currency and
resist an increase of the present silver
coinage" A very proper thing to do;
but will it not embarrass the aforesaid
senators and representatives slightly to
harmonic these instructions with the
declaration Of the national Republican
convention of 1888: 1.-THE Republican
party is il favor of the use of both gold
and silver as money, and condemns the
policy Of the Democratic administration
in its efforts to demonetize silver Z"
The public has been informed that the
Colorado silver mine owners propose to
test the constitutionality OF the silver act
restricting coinage to not less than
90, 600, 900 nor more than $4,000,000 O
month. committee Of the Colorado
Mining Exchange will present 100 ounces
of silver at the Philadelphia mint and
demand that it be coined into standard
uSiA4IS' AhStO 10 ~ pulluuluEOpy OF
anything Of the sentimental sort in this
proposition; it is pure business. The
metal in a silver dollar is worth about 70
cents. Its coinage would add 80 cents to its
nominal value. But the Philadelphia
mint will of course refuse to comply with
the miners demand. This will place the
miners in position to sue for man
damus and so get the matter before
the courts. In doing so they will give
some lawyers q good and long windet
job; but that will not be all. They will
work the politicians for ell they are
worth, and more vehemently than they
have been doing. Tie sentence we quote
from the National Republican platform
shows something of the influence welded
in the Chicago convention by the silver
kings Of Colorado and Nevada Are the
Republicans of Massachusetts, prepared
10 entsgonize these forces o. influence
and boodle2 We trust that they are, but
tho people will lock with much more
confidence to Democratic senator's and
representatives ito defend sound our.

The jury in the case of Edward Lyle,
the fireman who was killed in the COL
Esion on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
near this city on Saturday afternoon,
met Tuesday evening in Johnson IL Barn
hills store and completed the inquest.
Hartman X. Hartman, the train dis
patcher OF Philadelphia, testified that he
gave the order to the conductor and en-
einemRn Of No. ~ to run extra from w.
IL N. Junction 70 west yard. He issued the
order ~ IL AZ O'Clock and It WAS re-
ported o. K. by Operator Buckley at
l2.48 O'Clock. Extra No. ~ lest east
junction at 1889 o'clock. At 10 IS
o'clock witness received word from Opera
tor Layton az Market street station that
No. oil had car of the track and was
delayed, although he did not know how
long she would be delayed. 1t was not
necessary for him to issue any further
orders to No. "a, as the entire matter was
covered by the railroad company'a
book OF rnles, copy OF which
each employee has, and the contents
Of which he ia supposed to know. That
book gives an extra the right OF way as
aoou as Rll scheduled trains have passed
The scheduled trains have the right OF
way for IL hours after their schedule
time and an extra must look out for and
avoid oil scheduled trains unless she
moves by special order. Witness said
that the order which he gave was all
right. It was the duty OF the conductor
and engineman Of No. 81, if they did
not know that No. 2li train had passed
out, to inquire at w. &. n. junction or
East Junction, and obtain the information
that the train was clear. Orders to run
special trains are sent out every day and
they are worded similarly to the order IN
this case. They mean that the order
shall be obeyed as soon as they can get
the right OF way over the track, avoiding,
of course, all regular trains.
Engineer Cooper was recalled and in
answer to questions stated that the order
to run extra was the only order which he
had received aud he considered it i'm.
perative in the movement Of his train.
He thought that No. oil had passed out
so he followed No. 2l4 in.
o. j. Buckley, the operator at East
junction, who received the order for the
extra and transmitted 1t to the crew OF
No. ~, gave similar testimony to that OF
Trsihmester Hartman He is not sup.

mind where there was n deliberate at
tempt made in this city, on tue part Of
men of some authority over their fellow
Workmen in the employ Of manu-
featuring firm, to coerce the afore.
said FELLOW workmen into voting
Republican tickets by placing numbered
ballots in their hands and intimeting
that it might be unpleasant for somebody
il the numbered ballots did not turn up
when the votes were counted. Every
body knows that the uniform ballot law
was enacted to block just such games as
this. And, Judging the future BY the
past, is there not enough warrant for
fearing that il the right of employers to
go up and pay the taxes of their workmen
in blocks be once conceded, that it would
not be long before hundreds of workmen
in this city would be made to feel that
the tenure Of their employment depended
on the way they voted1 The only safe
way is that which the collectors have
adopted-require every man to pay his
own tax and become the custodian OF his
own voucher.
We have spoken Of the resort by adyo-
Gates of this Dudleyism in tax receipts to
misrepresentation and innuendo in the
place Of argument, but we must confess
to more than customary surprise at meet
ing such statement as this:
The case OF Mckee is precisely similar TO
the ease OF Neary, who when caught was
protected by our city Department of E!ec-
lions at the cost of Its own reputation. In
this case SANDER was necessary In order to
back up the government Of assessors and
collectors" under which we live, and the
needtul SANDER was straightway forth
coming.
How can it lie in tie mouth OF the
paper which thus directly traduess
Messrs. Wilson, Hart and MoLeAr to &c
cuss others OF unfairness by innuendo ?
Here was an act for the publication of
elections passed by legislature unani-
mouely Democratic, against the vehement
opposition of some influential men in its
own party; an act that received unstinted
praise, both in itself and for its admins.
tration. from the Republican press up to
the very moment the members
of the Department of Elections refused
to stultity themselves by endorsing the
blunder certain Republicans had made
in their hssty examination OF the error
lists measure OF such reform as the
record of the late Republican Legislature
notably on the Australian Ballot bill
irrefutably shows could not even have
received decent consideration, let alone
enactment, from that party under like
circumstances; an bipartisan act solely
in the interest of the promotion of hon.
est elections and the stamping out of
fraud, corruption and dishonesty. It
may be we'll for the Republican party
of Delaware to show some capacity for
rising to the ability to legislats as wisely
and impartially before its rnouth-pieoes
undertake to further traduoe the Depart
ment of Elections for vanturing to dis
agree with even Mr.. Curtis as to how
they should decide in given case and
after a full investigation. The party
whose legislative representatives. con-
temptuously rejected the Australian bal
lot bill might have grace enough to go a
little slow in donning the mask of re-
formers.

1t seems that, notwithstanding the
United States court decision before re-

from the Democrats to discontinue pur-
chasing poll-tax receipts (Which we be-
lieve only cost so cents each in Philadel-
phia) for voters who have grown aoous-
toned TO depend on their party to bride
them in this way to vote, the Republican
city committee of Philadelphia has de-
cided to go on in the same old rut. The

PHILADELPHIA, MOnuhy, sept. 5U 1852.
II there were an official In
spection, a census of merchan-
disc, the statement about the
Autumn Dress Goods now
here would be that they sur
pass in elegance. complete
ness and number of styles,
without doubt In quantity as
well, the united total of all
other Dress Goods stocks In
this city. This statement Is
made advisedly.
There is a feeling of depres.
sion as one turns from even a
superficial study of this stock
to writing of 1t. The simple
truth told In the most prosaic
style would make a story that
would challenge credulity.
Shall we attempt to interest
you by detailed description
Our best sense answers mo-"
Then mo" it Is.
A study of Art In Dress
Goods Is always attractive.
Don't laugh, but there Is an
art feeling in the stuffs. You
would be dull, indeed, were
you to look over these prod
ucts of infinite skill and pa
tience without feeling. The
dollars they cost, the machines
that made them, the boxes
that packed them. the ships
that carried them, the rnechan-
lcal processes that cleansed
the wool, and spun and dyed
the threads, may very prop
erly be mere items of money
and commerce. Not so the
thought that designed the
beautiful things as you see
them.
The art of the Orient and
the Occident; the Persian
palm and the Scotch tartan;
nature In flower, fern and sea-
weed; figures and forms of the
Imagination are all In them.
This is not only the 6tggea
but tie best selected stock.
Tile prizes are gerry LozO-
the least (qnaiity eOnaaerea)

So much for our Dress
Goods stock In It's entirety.
