THAT old idea of the Mosaic code, ex-
pressed in ian eye for an eye, and tooth
for tootf," and also in the dictum of
the same code that che that sheddeth
mans blood, by man shall his blood be
she'd" is very deeply imbedded in the
human mind. The extreme humani-
tarians of the present day try hard to
eliminate this principle from our laws,
but they do not meet with very great
success. Capital punishment has been
taken out of the laws of Michigan,
and here is a bowling mob of passionate
people trying to get the captive stage
robber and swing him into the hereafter
from limb of tree, and on the stern
rulings of that most obdurate of judges,
yclept Lynch. 1t is always 80 in States
where judicial hanging is considered a
piece of barbarity.

Orderly Demeanor of the
London Strikers.
MASS MEETING IN HYDE PARK.
Noted Churchmen Sympathize with
the Strike Movement
News from Samoa.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD I
LONDON, September 1.-Two thousand
coalheavers and bargemen employed by
Parker & Lambert have joined the strik-
ers. The Council of Strikers held meet
ing last evening, and, after long dis
cussion on the situation, decided to con-
tinue the strike. A monster meeting of
strikers was held in Hyde Park this af-
ternoon. Mr.. Burns, the socialist agi-
tator and other labor leaders made
the men would continue to strike until
their demands were fully conceded were
unanimously adopted. The enormous
crowd dispersed in an orderly manner.
Cardinal Manning sent mes
sage to Hyde Park to request
Mr.. Burns to visit him. In compliance
with the invitation Burns called upon
the Cardinal after the meeting, when
His Eminence expressed admiration ct
the excellent order maintained, and con-
graduated Burns upon the general good
behavior of the strikers.
A mass meeting of dockmen and 9TH
ers was held at Southwark, at which the
projsct was mooted to form a separate
committee for South London, in order to
have better voice in the conduct OF the
strike. Mr.. Quelch, as leader Of the
Social Democratic Federation, denounced
the manifesto calling for a general strike;
but for that he believes the dock di-
rectors would have yielded to the strik-
ers' demands.
Canon Liddon. of st. Paul's, has SUBJ
ecribed to the relief fund. In sermon
at York today, Canon Fleming expressed
sympathy with the strikers.
1t is estimated that Is 900 persons took
part in the demonstration at Hyde Park.
4 During the progress of the meeting
Burns and others passed through the
, crowd and took up collection for the
benefit of the strikers. Money was re.
ceived in hats and open parasols, and
a large sum was obtained. An Ameri-
can gentleman who was present gave
a..handsome donation. In an interview
: Burns said the strike committee had de-
cided not to have procession tomorrow.
They propose to devote the day to real
work, especially to improving the
methods of collecting funds.
Five thousand railway men held q
meeting at Darlington today and decided

to pacify him were futile, and one
of the clerks, after receiving bad blow
from his club, shot the negro,
killing him instantly. Echo is
the center of a considerable
colored population, and last night infor-
nation was received at Charleston that
a mob of negroes had collected on New
river, and that concerted onslaught
on the whites was in contemplation.
Orders we're also received by Charleston
hardware stores for all the Winchester
rifles available, and considerable ship
ment of these arms was made. The citi-
zens of Charleston are also gathering
arms, and it was apprehended the military

tional has been heard up to 10 O'Clock

A LONDON paper is of the opinion that
the United States has no exclusive title
to Bering sea for the reason that Russia
had no such title to convey. Our Eng
lish friends will be obliged to do some

claimed, asserted and maintained the
very rights we are now contending for,
and that we are her successors and as
signs. 1t is the duty of this Govern
ment to maintain al our rights in
Alaskan waters. The seals are not
fish, they are animals. They are
born on American soil, and are
ours wherever they roam. While in
Alaskan waters they certainly are
not trespassing on British possessions,
and the people of Great Britain have no
right to hunt or molest them wherever
found. Blackstone long ago laid down the
rule that doves from maa's cote were his
property although they might fly fifty
miles from home. Rabbits from q war
rem could not be shot even while tres
passing on the lands of neghb Dor. That
is principle of law we must maintain
in reference to seals. Indeed, it would
seem as il our Government owed it to the
people OF this Nation to 60 further, and
maintain our right to all sorts of
fishing in the waters of Alaska.
Ships OF other nations may be
allowed to pass through those waters
on their way to the Arctic seas, but all
property in the Alaskan sea proper is
ours. The sea is not great inter-
national highway. 1t is not necessary
to the commerce OF the world. It is a
closed sea to all proper intents and pur-
poses. Foreign war ships ought to be
excluded from those waters.

night between Cattle Inspector Joe Wv.

with the fight, was seriously wounded in

If THERE is to be any excuse for the
law forbidding the carrying of concealed
weapons, or any reason in the statute,
the strongest must be found in the rigid
enforcement of the law. AS it is in
nearly all States in the Union, the stat
ute remains dead letter on the books.
1t is seldom that an arrest is made under
the law, and still more infrequent is the
punishment of the person who violates
it. Besides, the power to grant permits
sion to carry weapon is 30 loosely exer-
cised that any one can get that leave,
and so the law falls to the ground. The
Executive who allows any man to carry a
weapon should be perfectly sure Of the
necessity and wisdom of granting
such permit. A good way tc
enforce this carefulness would be to make
the grantor particeps criminis in every
overt act committed by the person &c
privileged. That may be an extreme
view to take, but there is merit in it, il
closely studied. Here are the negroes
in the South; hot blooded, ignorant, led
by passion, without moral restraint, and
all of them are learning to go armed tt
the teeth. In country where they are
six to one in majority, this is very
dangerous thing. At picnic away
down South in Dixie yesterday there
was a very interesting little episode
when train full of darkies began turning
in their leaden pepper boxes on the
crowd. The man who carries a weapon
is usually the man who should not bt
allowed to do SO; and the peaceable, sell.
possessed man who might be trusted mo-
to use the weapon wantonly is always
unarmed and a prey to the tough, th'
blackguard, the hoodlum, the thief ant
the killer. The law ought to be repealed
or enforced.

THE GRONlN CASE.
Farmers Summoned to do Service
as Jurors,

CHICAGO, September Fifty farmers
will march into Judge McConnell's court
tomorrow morning as candidates for
jury duty in the trial of the Cronin sus-
poets. A special venire for them was
issued without the knowledge of the at
torneys for the defense. Judge McCon-
nell yesterday quietly issued the venire
and had Sheriff Matson dispatch county
bailiffs in search of the jurymen. The fifty
who were summoned live on farms and
in remote suburban Villages of the
county. By tomorrow night it is ex.
pected that some of them will have been
accepted as jurymen or the defense will
have made big hole in the ninety-six
peremptory challenges it still has in its

Ready TO Do the Job.
MARQUETTE, Mich, September IL
Holzhay, the Gogebic stage robber, was
taken south by the Gogebic Sheriff on a
train this afternoon. The prisoner was
defiant and his deme amor showed him to
be ready for any desperate deed. 1t is
expected that if he is not very closely
guarded he will make a determined at
tempt to escape. A great crowd congre'
gated at the depot to see the noted ban
dit. Holzhay did not relish their scru-
tiny and remarked to the officer with
him: eff had my guns and was free
they wouldn't be SO anxious to get close
to me-"
To the officers who guarded him last
night, Holzhay admitted that be was the
man who went through Milwaukee and

May, and afterwards held up the passen.

robbed several stage coaches in Northern
Wisconsin, besides committing many
minor depredations.

week, was brought here today by the
Sheriff and Immediately identified Holz-
hay as the man who did the job.
