international complications may result
from the case of Ida Montague of Sher-
brooke Canada, who was recently extradited
under what now appears to be false repre-
sensations. When her husband was killed
by her brother and the house set on fire.
Ida was tried for murder as an accom-
plice and acquitted. She then went to
Lawrence, Mass. When the crown came
to try her brother it was found that Lida's
testimony was needed to convict She
would not voluntarily return, so a charge
of arson was laid against her and she was
extr adited. Attempts were then made to
compel her TO testify. but, emphatically
refusing. she was finally committed for
contempt. Her brother was convicted of
the murder After his sentences she was
sentenced to one years Imprisonment
and fined $3.50 for contempt. Her
counsel protested. but TO no avail, that
the terms ct her extradition were being
violated, that she could not be imprisoned
for any crime other than arson. Her coun-
sci is now going to appeal to the minister of
justice at Ottawa, and if that does not sue
coed will lay the matter before the state
department at Washington and ask it to
take action to compel Canada to either try
the girl for the crime she was extradited for
or release her altogether. She is now in Jail
at Sherbrooke. Canada has certainly been
guilty of flagarnt breach OF faith in the
matter.

Rum and Ratification" is the felicitous
way in which the New York Times heads an
article describing the Tanmany Hall
jubilee. That is particularly appropriate,
for the reason that on such festive occasions
things usually get so mixed that one can
hardly tell where the rum leaves off and
the ratification begins.

Keep Cut of the Kitchen.

Quite a novel phase of what Mozis
Addums used to call servantgalism was re-
Gently presented in the London TeLeqraph,
which states the case thus: There has
always been hazy indefnteness about a
cooks rights in her own kitchen; but all
unwritten domestic law tends to show that
they are very extensive. A serious en-
counter aud a case in the Marlborough
street police court arose out of the energetic
way in which Mary Ann Cronin, the cook
of Mr.. Holbrook, landlord of the
Swan public house, Mount street,
Grosvenor square, asserted these
rights. The landlords son happened
to enter Miss Cronin's domain as
she was preparing tea on Sunday afternoon,
when he was peremptorily told to leave and
informed that he had no right there The
young man did not display sufficient alac-
rtty In making his retreat, and the cook fol
lowed him with the intention of pushing
him out of the door. Thereupon, accord
ing to Miss Cronin's statement, he struck
her violent blow, and the parties fell
together. Young Holbrook now saw the
necessity of making strategic movement
to the rear, for immed lately on regaining
her feet the cook took up the kitchen
poker, the scepter of sway in her realms,
| and the young man sought refuge in his
bedroom, where he remained until taken in
custody by the police MIR. Hannay, be-
lieving that the landlords son had struck
the first blow, fined him ga, with 81 COM
pensation for Miss Cronin-a w arning of
the danger of invading the kitchen and of
entering into dipute with an autocrat who
can, in the last resource, fall back on the
kitchen poker" Imposing FIVE pounds NOR g
upon this hapless youth seems particularly
unjust in view of the fact that the kitchen
mechanic had already imposed several
pounds upon him. Nevertheless, the newt
| able moral is-cl'ar de kitchen.

ELECTIONS IN VIRGINIA.
A Committee of Colored Mem Before
the House Committee.

Il6 house committee.
WASHINGTON, Jan. ga delegation of
colored men from Virginia were before the
House committee on the election of Presi-
dent and Vice President to-day, to talk
about the operation of the election laws in
Virginia. There were five persons in the
party, as follows: A. W. Harris, Joseph T.
Wilson, w. w. Evans, II. c. Corrigan, and
Gus Hamilton. They formed a COM
mlttee appointed by a convention of
colored people held in Richmond
on Dec. Is last to present
this matter to congress. Harris was the
principal speaker, and he submitted
written statement showing at length the
manner in which it was alleged the regis
tration laws of Virginia had been evaded
and manipulated in various federal cleo
tlonS. The other members of the delegation
made short addresses and were closely ques-
toned by various members of the commit
tee concerning the statements they made.
DRIFT OF THE ADDRESS.
The address presented by Harris says the
colored people of Virginia feel very keenly
the unjust treatment to which they have
been subjected, iand take this means of pro-
testing against continuance Of the same
and of expressing their convictions as to
the relations which should exist between the
races i'll the commonwealth, with respect to
their moral and material advancement, as
well as to their political rights. At the
same time, they protest that the colored
people hold no idea, neither advance nor
espouse any principle which they do not
believe to be for the best interests of
all the people of the state. and con-
ducive to her advancement in every
thing which would go to make her
strong and potential in the American sister
hood of states. They desire, they say, to
discountenance the belief or idea that they
want or favor any organization which is
antagonistic to the interest of the white
citizens of the state, holding, however, now
and always, that as colored men they have
right to meet IN conference for their ad-
vancement They declare themselves op-
posed to mixed schools, and interested in
every enterprise which adds wealth to the
state.
STATISTICS OF ALLEGED FRAUDS.
The address contained some statistics
concerning alleged election frauds and out
RACES, said to have been perpetrated in the
state of Virginia in the last election. 1t says
that on the Saturday before the last election
(registration day $4,000 legal voters were
disfranchised in Virginia. The address
earnestly appeals to the lawmakers
of the nation so to change the exist
ing national election law that it shall no
longer be in the power of any registrar or
other election officer to disfranchise arbi-
trarily any voter to whom is given the
right of ballot by the constitution of this
country, and to remedy the wrongs and
evils which they complain of by reducing
the representation accorded in the House of
Representatives to that extent in which the
suffrage of the Southern states, and espe-
cially in Virginia, is practically denied and
suppressed.

sideration the nomination of ex-Gov. War

TARIFFS MAKE TONGUES WAC.
The Ways and Means Committee Be
gins Framing q Bill

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The ways and
means committee has finally begun the
preparation of the tariff bill, working upon
the lines of the Senate bill of the last con-
gress. The lumber and wood sections Of
that bill were adopted entire, with the ex-
ception of the clause relating to rattan and
chair canes, which has been attacked by
number of persons before the committee,
and has consequently been held up for
future action. The schedule of the Senate
bill covering books and papers was also
adopted. This action is preliminary, and
all of the schedules adopted will be subject
to revision when the bill is completed. The
democratic members of the committee man
1ested their opposition to the proceedings
by offering substitutes for the sections
adopted in the line of the provisions of the
Mills bill for the last congress, but they
were rejected by party votes.
