THE striking dockmen in London
have succeeded in their demand for
an increase of pay. The striking
longshoremen in New York failed in
their resistance of a reduction in pay.

striking longshoremen in New York
were, and are still, getting from 80

London resumed their work again.
The dock directors have agreed to
grant the advance demanded and
the greatest strike London has ever
known is thus amicably settled. 1t is
estimated that 92,ooo,ooo has been
squandered during the strike, and
that it will be years before London
will recover from the loss caused by

DETROIT, May A special from
Manistee says: The Polish priest of
this place was assaulted on the street
this morning by one faction of his

suited, in which both men and women
participated. The militia was called
out to Quell the riot, and the fire depart

hose upon the mob. After nearly
drowning several of the rioters, peace
was restored. The sheriff attempted to
arrest the leaders of the disturbance
and was attacked by the women, sew
eral of whom were knocked down. Ten
of the rioters have been jailed and a
guard is stationed at the priests house
to prevent further trouble.
The trouble commenced three months

Last Sunday the priest went through

THE CARTER CASE.
Another Chapter in the Chicago
Romance

CHICAGO, May 5.-The last day of the
third week of the Carter divorce trial
opened with but small attendance,
the departure from the usual custom of
not holding court Saturday not being
understood by the crowd of sensation
seekers. 1t was understood that the
defense and the cross bill by Mr.. Carter
would rest to-day and Mrs. Carriers de-
Tense to the cross bill would be taken
up Monday. The first witness this
morning was James Curtis Butler
Andrews, a member of the 'Lambs''
club, of New York. He testi-
fed that in September, 1856,
he saw Mrs. Carter at dinner
at the Albemarle hotel. New York. with
E. B. Sheldon and another man, and
one evening he saw Mrs. Carter give
messenger boy note and afterwards
heard her say something about going to
at Delmonico's with Kyrle Bellew.
Bradford r. Batty, who was night clerk
at the hotel at st. Augustine where
Mrs. Carter stopped, testified that he
was called to her room at 10 or II o'clock
at night several times to bring crackers
and sugar. Mr.. Carter was recalled by
Mr.. Walker and identified a number of
letters and kilograms sent him by Mrs.
Carter while on her Southern trip
in the winter of 1854. The ses-
sion closed with the evidence of
Leslie Carter on his cross bill,
charging his wife with adultery. The
trial was then adjourned until Monday,
when Mrs. Carter'S rebuttal will be put
in. On her behalf, the dispositions of
Messrs. Gregory, Gilbert, Pearce and
Bellew have been taken, denying any
wrong with Mrs. Carter, and the inter-
esting part of next weeks proceedings
is expected to come about the time the
legal readers reach the cross-eXamina-
ton of thes correspondents. The cross
questions are said to make very inter
esting reading indeed, and in Bellows
deposition the name of Mrs. James
Brown Potter is stated to largely figure.
Mrs. Carter has talked great deal
about alleged attempts by Ernest Carter
to dlshonor his brother, and rumOr has
it that she will probably make such a
charge against Eugene Carter next

JACK THE RIPPER"
Has Negro Imitator Near Ocala,
Florida,

ST. LOUIS, May A dispatch from
Ocala. Fla, gives an account Of the do
ings Of negro, somewhat after the
style of Jack the Ripper" of London.
On April 30, two miles from Ocala, Eta
Burley, a colored girl. twenty years
old. while working in a cornfeld was
brutally assaulted by negro tramp I'M
known in the neighborhood. He told
days with murderous intent. He at
tackled her with a knife, cutting her
clothes nearly all off, but inflicted no
serious wounds. The girls screams
brought aid and the negro fled to a
swamp near by and could not be found.
Since this occurrence, two other girls
have been attacked in similar manner,
and the men escaped each time. On
Saturday evening last, Eta Burley was
again assaulted by the same negro, near
her home. After knocking the girl
down, he attempted to disembowel her
with knife, and slashed her across the
breasts, but owing to her violent
struggles. the cuts were only
slight. The girls father and brother
ran to her aid, and the latter fired gun
at the WOuld-be murderer, but without
effect. AS the brute IAN away, he said
he had to kill the girl somehow. The
negroes of the whole section are up in
arms, and are securing the woods in
every direction, and should the fiend be
caught he will be lynched at once. 1t
was reported last night that cOlored
girl had been found dead in the woods,
and her body slasfed in a horrible man

Pennies Are Legal Tender Now.

W washington P0St.
The action of that New jersey bank
in dumping $4,000 in silver on its floor
in payment of its checks i'm the hands
of rival Institution brings up the
question of legal tenders. Gold has al
ways been Legal tender in the United
States. With brief interval previous to
the passage OF the Bland act, silver dol
lars have been also. Greenbacks are
but gold and silver certificates are not,
except Oh customs, taxes and public
dues. National bank notes are not
legal tenders, and can be, and often
have be, refused in payment of debt.
Subsidenry coin is legal tender only i'll
limited quantities.
A gentleman went to the stamp win
dow of the postOffice in neighbOring
city and called for 100 l cent stamps,
rendering in payment 100 cent pieces.
"TheSe are not legal tender in any
such amounts" grOwled the stamp
clerk. % refuse to accept them"
'YOu do. eh?'' answered the gentle
man. ''Well. give me one stamp" at
the same time showing out a penny. The
stamp was Forthcoming.
"NOw, give me stamp" He got it.
''AnOther stamp"
snow another"
:'See here" said the clerk, show
many stamps do you want? You are
keeping twenty people waiting"
''Oh, Away keep within the law"
responded the gentleman. Another
stamp, please. Pennies are not legal
tender in large amounts. Another

And he showed out his pennies and
purchasd stamps one at time till he
got his 100. But. the clerk was cured.
Pennies are legal tender at his window

TOO COOL ENTIRELY.
Last Weeks Weather Was Bad
for Crops.

for Crops.
WASHINGTON, May 4.-The signal
service weather crop bulletin for the
week ending Saturday, May 4, says:
The cool weather during the week
retarded growth. and was gener-
ally unfavOrable to crops in
the Northwest, and some damage
is reported to fruit and gardens
from frost in that section and i'll the
central valleys. Cold, cloudy weather
and little rain in Michigan, Ohio and
Indiana, caused the crops to advance
but little. and the absence OF moisture
in Indiana and Ohio has placed the
crops in those states in critical con-
ditiOn. In Kentucky, Tennessee and Ar
kansas the timely rains, although less
than the needed amount. benefited crops.
Tobacco crop prospects are reported as
poor and the growth of cotton slow.
The cool weather doubtless affected the
cotton crop unfavorably from Texas
eastward to South Carolina, but
the rains over this region during
the week will doubtless benefit the
condition of the crop if followed
by warm, clear weather, which will
probably prevail in that section the
first part of the coming week. In New
England and the middle Atlantic states
the weather was generally favorable
and the season is about ten days in adj
vance with excellent prospects. In
New Jersey heavy rains caused some
damage to fruit and gardens in low
grounds.

Newspapers Will Send a Corps of
Obser yation A broad.

DETROIT, Mich, May 4.-The Detroit
Evening News and the associated pa
pers of the Scripps league, the Cleve-
land Press, the Cincinnati Post and
the st. Louis Chronicle, have decided
to send at their joint expense a
delegation of forty American work.
men to the Paris exposition, to re-
turn the visit of the French wOrkmen's
delegation to the centennial exposition.
The men will be nominated by the lead
ing labor organizations and from these
will be chosen at leaft forty representa-
tive men, and possibly some women, Sc
lected with regard to their perfect
knowledge of their respective trades,
their sobriety and reliability and
capacity for observation, and their
ability to carry to their fellow workmen
fair conception of what they have seen
and studied in Paris and throughout
Europe. The delegates selected will
be assembled at some rendezvous to
receive instructions and then depart
for New York in palace cars, where
they will take firSt-class passage for
Europe. Arrived in England, they will
first visit the leading industrial centers
of that country, including London, Biz
mingham and Sheffield, and then
cross the channel to France. They
will remain at least two weeks
in Paris studying the exposition,
each delegate making special study of
his own trade. and the exhibits which
illustrates it. They will next visit the
great manufacturing establishments in
the neighborhood of Paris, and after
wards take flying trip to Lyons and
possibly some other great industrial
city of the interior. From each point
of interest. and especially from
Paris, each delegate will write a
carefully prepared report of observa-
tons in his own special trade. These
reports will deal not only with mechan-
ical Improvements that may be observed,
but also with the relations of employer
and employed, as they are Illustrated
by the observations of the delegates
in Europe as compared with their
knowledge of the relations of the cor
responding caSses in America. Among
the classes to be represented in the del
CATION there will be engineers, machin-
lists, ship carpenters, furniture design
ers. agricultural implement makers and
photographers. The expedition will be
accompanied by staff artists and CORE
spondents of the papers, and the history
of the whole expedition will be pub
lished in an elaborate volume.

DEATH OF MAI. EDWARDS.
A Kansas City Editor Expires
Suddenly at Jefferson City.

ST. LOUIS, May Maj. John N. Ed
wards. one of the editors of the Kansas
City Times, and one of the best and
most favorably known newspaper
men in the West, died suddenly and
unexpectedly at the McCarty house,
in jefferson City, at about 10 o'clock
this morning from stroke of paralysis.
Maj. Edwards had been at the state
capitol for some time looking after the
live stock inspection bill, the passage of
which he fought strenuously. There
were many queer contradictions in
his disposition, and they often
became the subject of criticism.
He was the friend and apologist of the
James boys during the bloodiest epoch
of their career, yet he always tried to
induce them to give up their lawless
life and, finally, after Jessie had been
killed, it was Maj. Edwards who ar
ranged for the surrender of Frank
James and by that surrender put an
end to the existence of that desperate
gang of outlaws.
