Julia Marlowe, whose engagement at the Chi cago opera house last successful began a two weeks engagement at the same house last Monday evening Her appearance last year was the signal for most enthusiastic greeting by the public, and her reception now is If possible, even more enthusiastic. Since her last visit to Chicago Miss Marlowe has rounded out her characters to greater degree of excellence, and has fulfilled the many promises made for her at the beginning of her career. This will be her only appearance in Chi. cage this season.
 "The City Directory" with new business and new songs, will appear at the Chicago opera house
 The McCaull Opera company will fill its annual engagement at the Chicago in the early part of November during which time 1t will give, with all its New York investiture, the great success "Clo- ver."

that the Governor will have much to say on the
subject in his annual message, and will again
place himself on record as being radically OPP
nosed To the exclusive official ballot. He has
the right to do this but it is for the Senate and
Assembly to make laws without reference to
the Executive branch Of the government. The
MANNERS of these bodies before taking their
seats will swear to perform the duties Of their
office to the best of their own ability. Neither
their oath nor any cOmmon-SenSe conception
Of their duty commits them to legislating with

Most likely. then, ballot reform will fail next
year in New-York. The veto of the measure
will be a serious public misfortune, but so long
as sucb q man as David b. Hill is Governor the
reope have no right to expect that any legis-
Iation will come out of the Executive Chamber
alive which makes for the public veal at the
expense of Democracy's bosses. Still 1t is not
imposs BILE that Hill may sign the SaXton bill OF
1890. II is understood that he Is sorely dis
pleased with his richly earned title Of " WhiSkey
Governor 1t may occur to him as he ponders
upon the Democratic Presidential nomination
for which his soul longs that the convention OF
his party may conclude that it would be bad
policy to give it to a man whose chief claim to
distinction is that he is the tool of the saloons
and the political bosses. Consequently, not
because he hates ballot reform less, but because
he loves his boom more, he may decide to APP
proyc the SaxtOn hill. But whether he APP
proves or vetoeS, the Republican Legislature
will do It's whole duty.

There were two semi-sensational develop
ments in the Cronin trial yesterday. One was
the appearance of a man named Martin VINO
informed Judge Mcconnell that he had seen the
defendant Coughlin in police station az ,ne
very hour that the murder was committed ms
corroborates the testimony given by ponce
man. and may have an important bearing on
the fate of one of the men charged with the
crime. Of course Martin will be called as
witness, and his evidence will be thoroughly
sifted The other feature of the day was the
appearance of a new confession from woodruff
whose fecundity in this direction appears to be
homeless. At least half dozen confessions
have emanated from this source heretofore.
Hence the value of the latest one cannot be
easily estimated. But there is no improbability
about the plan to create the impression that
Cronin had fled from Chicago, and the fact that
he was reported to have been seen in Canada
is in so far proof that the scheme was to have
him turn up (osensibly) in England later on.

TIE GUARANTEE FOND WILL BE COM
PLETED.

After languishing for many days in dis
comaging manner the Worlds Fair guarantee
fund received an impetus Yesterday which prom
ises to carry it to completion before the as
sembling of Congress. 1t is of the utmost i'm
porancc that this new impulse of interest and
iberality should not be permitted to die away
and leave the enterprise still in an uncertain
condition and, therefore, for the purpose and
in the hope of imparting an additional slim
illus. The TRIBUNE Association now subscrlbes
$4,000 to the fund.
The sum remaining to be guaranteed is com
parativey small, and there ought no longer to
he q doubt that New-York will be able to lay
IFS claims before Congress at the earliest OPP
portunity in the most assured and convincing
manner. Chicago has been officially informed
within a day or two that the plans of the
metropolis have been matured with skill and
determination, and nothing more is needed to
make a conclusive impression upon the country
of our deliberate and answering purpose to
deserve and win the prize except the prompt
subscription of the last hundred thousands of
the five millions They ought to come with
rush and finish the business at once. There is
every reason why public-spirted citizens should
declare their interest in the general proiea in
this specific manner They have saved the
Park and it is their duty now to make the Fair.

GOVERNOR HILL AND BALLOT REFORM

II Governor Hill is correctly reported il il
useless to expect that Ballot Reform bill will
be placed on the statute books Of this State so
long as he occupies the Executive Chair. For
although 1t is stated that he is willing to make
concessions to the Republican majority which
is to shape the legislation Of next winter, it is
plainly intmated that he will not sign any
Ball0t-Reform measure which does not permit
the use OF unofficial as well AZ official ballots
In other words the only Ballot Reform bill
which can hope to escape the Governors veto
is bogus blll-one from which the Fundamental
principle Of genuine ballot reform has been
eliminated. 1t is conceded by all who have tho
reform most at heart, and who have given tho
most thought to the means which are necessary
10 obtain the end III view that the exclusive
onclai ballot Is vital feature. Bribery and
corruption at the polls will never come to an
ehd so long as the bosses have at their dis
posai a fund made up in large part Of assess
ments upon candidates. But if the assessment
system is to be either broken up or even crinnled
The bosses must be deprived of the pretext which
they now employ in making their exo,bitont

SILVER and THE ADMINISTRATION

1t is not entirely probable that any Demo
cratic or Mugwump journal in this city or else
where is authorized to announce in advance
what policy with regard to silver coinage the
Administration is going to pursue Neither
the President nor the Secretary of the Treasury
is likely to make known his impressions or
opinions in any other than an official char
acter. And if there is TO be an official com
muncation to Congress, or for the infOrma-
ton Of the majority in the two Houses of Con
greSs it would seem to be in accordance with
usage and courtesy that the method chosen
should not be through the columns Of Il news
paper Hence the assertion that any Demo-
cratic newspaper ha, been chosen Us the organ
of the Administration for the purpose Of placing
before the Republican members of Congress and
the public the views of the President regarding
silver, does appear, it must be admitted,
little tishy
The policy of the Republican party on this
subject has not been very difficult to under
stand. 1t has been definitely stated in the Ma
tional platform, and prior to that in the legSla-
ton by Republicans in Congress. 1t is not
intended to debaSc or depreciatc the currency
1t has net been the purpose Of Republicans to
dive gold out Of the country, or to make the
enormous volume Of paper in circulation piac-
ticaly rcdcemble in silver only. If it is alb
SOlutcly safe to count upon anything, in advance
of the Presidents message or the Secrctary's
report, it is safe to assume that neither will
advocate policy which will tend to weaken
public confidence in the currency or in the
Nations good faith.
How large volume of certificates, nominally
redeemable in silver, but through the custom
houses virtually redcemable in gold, it may be
entirely safe for the Government to issue and
circulate, is question not easily answered,
There has been great change in public opinion
about it, since certain infalliblc papers declared
that the Allison Silver Coinage bill would bring
speedy and i!remcdabe ruin The bankers Of
New York, who were then particularly opposed
to the issue Of silver certificates. were found
heartily concurrng with Secretary Manning.
not four years ago. in steps providing for a
much larger use Of silver aS a basis of CIR rcncy
But President Harrison and Secretary Window
have the strongest possible reason to guard well
against any impai. ment or diStruSt Of the cur
rency and it is tolcrably safe to say that they
are not likely to propose the impracticable or
unwise things which sundry Democratic news
papers say they are going to propose.

long since past, and are merely confirmatory OF
statements frequently published by apostate
Normons, but, unfortunately for the Church,
their truth is supported by great mass OF
circumstantial evidence, significant among
which are the openly delivered sermons OF many
Mormon leaders, living and dead. Until with
in the present decade, when the Edmunds legls-
Iation began to be felt in Utah, the Church had
no motive for the conceament of it's real doc
trines, nor of its real attitude to the Federal
Government. But in recent years great change
has been going on in the Territory. Its won
derful natural resources the development OF
which has always been opposed and impeded
by the Church, has attracted the immigration
of about 10000 Genties, and with them new
ideas, new purposes, new hopes and new am
billions have come in, and a society has been
built up hostile to the Church and fearless of
it. The arm of the Government has supported
this bold and aggressive population, and has
insisted that the Mormons must be Americans,
that they must drop polygamy, and, in effect,
that if they are going to be controlled in social
matters by revelations, they must see to it that
their revelations do not contravene the Consti-
tuition and laws of the United States
oInCe thlS position was e1ectVcly taken,
better state Of things has existed in Utah. That
is, the strain between the Gentles and the
Mormons has been less intense, and polygamy
has ceased to be openly practised. The Nor
mon leaders, too, Cannon, Woodruff Young
and Richards, are exceedingly moderate in the
tone of their remarks bout the Government.
1t does not appear, however, that they have
conceded anything. They still insist that their
revelation approving polygamy was of Divine
origin that it is binding on every male Nor
mon financially able to practise it and to the
full extent of his financial ability, and that in
the nature and extent of his heavenly reward
he is Disseminated against if he fails to prac-
tisc it. They still teach absolute and unthinIl-
ing obedience to Church counseln in all earth
y affairs, thus placing the State and its DEGREES
wholly at the mercy of the Church. There is
no reason to doubt that the removal of Camp
Douglas and the United States courts would
leave them just as intolerant and just as
polygamouS as ever.
Congress will have an important task to per-
form when it has read and digeSted the records
Of Judge ZaneS court, the message of Governor
Thomas and the report of the Utah Commission.
