Another sensational discovery was made yes
terday in connection with the Cronin case. 1t
consisted of the finding in sewer OF two
yalises containing the murdered mans cloth
ing, surgical instruments and prescription
book. The clothing had nearly all been cut
into strips, but was readily identified, as were
also the other articles. The production OF
these things was not necessary in order to es-
tablish case against the authors OF the foul
conspiracy of which Cronn was the victim.
Nevertheless they add one more link to the
chain of evidence which is being forged against
the murderers.
1t is no exaggeration to say that the con-
diton Of things in the Dstrict-Attorney' Office
under the present incumbent is disgraceful.
MIR. Fellows has been repeatedly rebuked by
the Judges for his laxness, want of method,
unpunctuaiity and general incompetency and
inefficency, but he goes calmly on, oblivious
to criticism and utterly Indifferent to the ne
cessity for improvement that daily becomes
more glazing. During this week Recorder
Smyth, Judge Cowing and Judge MARITIME have
all had to suspend their courts because the
District Attorney was not ready with cases
that should have been prepared 1t is by no
accident that these things habitually happen
II is the natural outcome of putting man like
Fellows in the District-Attorney's Office One
of the Judges threatens to bring the matter
before the Grand Jury. We hope to see that
done. Furthermore. the interests OF justice
will speedily demand that charges against
CoJoneI Fellows be laid before the Governor.

MIR. Flower made remark at yesterday
meeting of the Site Committee which throws
a strong sidelight upon the purpose Of the com
mittee in it's original decision to include a
norton of the Park in the site for the Worlds

said that the proposition to Use the Park had
been employed as a club to coerce the owners
of private property that was required, But now
that these owners consent had been secured
the Park was no longer needed and the formal
REIMBURSEMENT of all claims to it was in order
As no dissent from this remark was uttered by
the other committeeman, it may be taken for
granted that Mr.. Flower only bluntly put what
they all know and believe. This playing fast

shut their eyes to the fact that an election was

The tariff reform" plank in the Democratic
State platform is approvingly cited as one of tho
causes of the victory OF the party Of Tabor and
Wemple. The platform contains another plank,
which had more to do with the real result, but
,.,hich the tariff reform organs are not likely to
noint to with pride. 1t is the plank which
opposed all sumptuary legislation that needlesSly
nferferes with the personal liberty or reasonable
customs of the people, and SO invited the

ofmy friends for any position which, be-
lieve. would enable me to further the inter
ests of the South, whose interests have new

Then every Southern white man has adj
ditional cause for thankfulness at Mr.. Sher-
mans defeat st the Chicago convention
But how is it that during all the previous
republican administrations the interests OF
the South never received the consideration
to which they are Justly entitled? And il
they lacked proper consideration under

at all likely that the mere appointment oil

Alabama.

MIR. Blair said he would gladly limit his
reflection on the people Of Alabama to the
Senator.
Mr.. Morgan said that be would be thank
ful for my presidential Influence that
would separate him from Mr.. Blair, as his
association with him had added nothing to
his happiness or been improving to him IN
the least, but it mattered not how the Soma
tor from New Hampshire regarded him, he
said, and added, II hope the Senator will
leave me now and forever"
Mr.. Blair said he would take leave of the
Alabama Senator then and there.

AT THE late meeting of the Virginia farm
ers' convention at Richmond the president
said that 10 his opinion the condition OF
the farmers has not changed since their last
annual meeting on the contrary, it is be
coming more desperate for the want OF en-
actments, State and federal. The fruiis OF
the earth have been very abundant, but The
price of these products has been deprived oil
profit owing to oppressive laws" The
farmers compose by far the larger portion
of the States population. And yet there
are people who say the State is prosperous,
and that her prospect is most favorable.
Under the existing tariff the Virginia farm
ers have to sell their products in the cheap
est market and buy what they want in the
dearest, aud such system if continued
much longer must utterly ruin them. The
condition Of Virginia depends upon that OF
her farmers. When they are prosperous
every body else within the State is, but when
they are depressed, all their fellow citizens
suffer with them.
