DEFINING BUNKO.
A Steerer's Lawyer Claims that 1t is Not
Robbery and Puzzles the Magistrate.

Detroit, Feb. 1.-Lawyer Meredith of
Hamilton, attorney for Frank a. Aldrich,
the Pittsburg bunko steerer, has raised a
new point in the trial before Magistrate
Bartlett at Windsor, Ontario. Aldrich,
who bunkoed Thomas Lemon of Allie
gheny, Pennsylvania, out of $40 900, was
accused of robbery, an extraditable Of
fense, and Meribith urged that Bunko was
not robbery, nor was it extraditable. He
offered to furnish authorities on the sub
ject, and as the magistrate was uncertain
the case was continued. If Magistrate
Bartlett holds that bunko is robbery it will
establish new precedent that will make
Canada an unsafe place for bunko men.
The bnnko operations OF Aldrich, who
has many aliases, make an interesting
story. He was said to be concerned in
robbing II. j. Murdock, of Pittsburg, of
100000. Aldrich also bunkoed S. NJ.
Racket, an old farmer living near Charles
ton, Pennsylvania, out of $2,O0Or anoth er
her old man who lives near Batavia, New
York, out of So, 900 in the gold brick game !;
man named Marshall in Indiana, out of
good sum in August by the same game.
He fleeced an old man Of Cleveland out of
$4,000. He swindled Warner, engaged
in the real estate business in Kansas City,
out of $4,000. Still another man robbed
by Aldrich was Lindsay or Mckinney, of
Galesburg, Illinois, who lost $1,000. =
Aldrich has prominent and influential
friends and has always been able to set
tie his difficulties. His uncle is the may
or of Stafford, Kansas, and Aldrich was
never before suspected Of being crook.

STABBED AT HOME.
Disgruntled Albuquerque Politicians at
Worthwhile Sentiment.

The statehood question is the chief local
topic to-day. One hears it everywhere,
ON the streets at every corner, in the
business house, the banks or in the cor
ridors at the capitol among the legislative
members. AT the latter place are to be
met representative citizens from every
nook and corner in the territory. The
disgust, humiliation and Indignation over
the action OF few disgruntled politicians
at Albuquerque in preparing and forward
ng to congress protesting memorial
at this particularly critical period in our
struggle for admission to the union is
everywhere universal.
The general opinion is that the forward
ing OF the Albuquerque memorial" pro-
testing against statehood, was simply a
scurvy political trick planned by few
Iemocratic and Mugwump fossils with
the sole purpose Of precipitating adverse
action in the Republican senatorial
caucus, hoping thereby that such action
can in the future be turned to political
account locally, both for themselves and
the Democratic party. In other words,
the signers of this protest hope to make
New Mexico solid Democratic territory
by pointing to the action of the Demo-
cratic lower house in congress favoring
statehood as compared with the conduct
of the Republican senate in repudiating
New Mexico's claims.
Representative Republicans and all
fair minded Democrats now here from
various points throughout the territory
seem to think that no time should be lost
by the friends of the state movement in
showing up to the senate and country at
large the true inwardness and petty politi-
cal trickery of this small coterie of Al
buquerque fossils. Public sentiment
seems decidedly in favor OF sending
committee of say three residents
to Washington at once, to appear
before the senate committee on ter
ritories and place the wishes of the
people Alright before that body. Every
man of the many spoken to on this sub
ject to-day expressed a wish that this

opinion that the legislative assembly
should take official action Immediately
looking to the carrying out of this idea.
1t is also suggested that a meeting be
called at once of the executive committee
named at the late territorial statehood
convention for the purpose of such action
as will further our chances for admission
along with Dakotn Montana and Wash
ington territories. This executive COM
mittee is composed of the following
named citizens:
Bernalillo-M. S. Otero, Neill B. Field.
Colfax-E. B. Franks.

a second addition to the town was an
nounced Saturday evening. 1t comprises
Conrad Bucher ranch northeast of town,
and is to be put on market about Febru-
ary |. The real estate firm of Godfrey K
Boyd have the handling of this enterprise.
The first excursion OF prospective set
tiers coming hitherward in search of homes
is to arrive about February 20. There are
to be a number of these excursions dur
ing the spring under the auspices of the
San Luis Valley association. This first
party will consist of over 800 persons,
mostly from Indiana and Illinois. The
interest in this valley is more pronounced
than ever before, and it is anticipated the
immigration for 1889 will be fully double
that Of last year.

The senate resumed consideration OF
the diplomatic and consular appropria-
ton bills, the question being on the
amendment affecting the Samoan islands,
Dolph said the question was one of
special and local interest to the people OF
the Pacific coast. The German govern
ment agreed to observe the statu quo.
Dolph replied. There NAV have been no
such special agreement, but the obsery-
ance of statu quo was necessarily implied
Do]ph added that if congress was to in
terfpre with the matter something very
different from the pendino amendments
would be required,

Fierce and Bloody War.

LONDON, Jan. 30.-Lord Stanhope, sec
retary of State for war, addressed meet
ing in Lincolnshire last evening. He
said thundercloud was hanging over Eu-
rope and that sooner or later it would
burst, bringing the fiercest war ever
known. 1t is impossible to view the prep
arations for war now being made through
out Europe without feeling that war was
approaching. He hoped, however, that
the wisdoms of England's statesmen
would prevent that nation becoming IN
volved.

YELLOW FEVER GERMS.
Remarkable Results Obtained by
D~. Sternberx at Decatur.

Prof. II. j. Delmer, Of the Ohio State Univey-
sity, has concluded the task OF photograpnng the
germs causing yellow fever, thai had been sent
him by Dir. james Reeves OF Cnattano0ga
Tenn. The professor says this il the first time
yellow fever germs have been fOuld in the lis
sues, scientists heretofore searching for them in
vain. They have been found iE The Zongloca
MASSES in the capillary blood vessels, which ap.
pear dlstended and ruptured, and at these lup-
lures these ZooglOea are dense and large. The

in "a plain dark round mass stcoad, an oval
with dark point AT each extremity; third, an
obong disk with dark points in the second ;
and fourth, dark points united by fm and strik-
lngly resembling dumb brii.
Being asked rs to how the discovery regard
ing the cause OF yellow fever came to be made
he said "D:. Sternberg of Johns Hopkins Uni

haustve search for yellow fever germs, but
without success in the tissues. During the last

THE ISSUE WILL NOT DOWN.

Republicans can't comprehend an issue
that reaches beyond the close of cam
paign. An exchange remarks with won
derment and surprise and considerable
derision that democrats 90 on with the
tariff discussion. ust the same as before
the election" The wonderment will
cease, says the Toledo (Ohio) Bee, when
the wonderers begin to realize that this
issue will not down because an election is
over and a temporary reverse is record
ed. The character Of this issue is more
national than political. 1t is cardinal
virtue of the democratic party to favor
low tariff, butt it is also national virtue
of the people to demand peace taxes in
times of peace; and to demand that all
burdens of government shall be equalized
as far as possible. Republicans and dem
ocrats largely think alike upon the sub
ject. The persons who so think are not
IN the minority, though the electoral vote
seems adverse. The issue will be kept
alive and ultimately it will triumph.

BLITCHTON, Fla, DEC. H. 1888.
To tile Elitor of tie Ocala Banner:
Much has been said pro and con on the subject
of State Board of Health. The indications
now, judging from the interest manifested point
unmstakably to the creation of this board at the
next session Of the Legislature.
A great deal of unnecessary clamOring for O.
State Board has been INDUCED in by parties who
are incapable Of indicating or unable to vindicate
the position taken.
What is hoped 10 be accomplished through
Board OF Health?
This subject should be more freely and fully
discrssed before it is determined 10 have State
Board, whicn would likely not be more effectual
in preventing the introduction and spread of
the fever than the various county boards have
been.
The local boards, In the present epidemic, as 6
general rule, are cOmmendable and did some eff
ticient work. This leads us TO inquire Gould
State Board, with an enormous outlay ofmeans
and delegated with perhaps less power than a
local or county board do more to prevent the in
reduction ofyellow fever than the latter?
What will be expected of State Board z
What class to constitute it? Win the privile-
ges Of the county boards be restricted: Which
of the boards will decide as 10 methods iurisdic-
tons, etc., etc.
Let's weigh these thoughts carefully and dis
cuss them with due regard to economy and the
safest methods to secure the State from infectious
or contagious diseases.
VIII not adequate quarantine laws and regula-
tons for all Florida ports, rlgidly enforced by
the local boards already provided for by statute,
be sufficient to prevent another visitation of yell
low fever?
Establish the necessity for a State Board, pre-
sentlng facts different from what has yet ap-
than myself to create it.
