ToAiay'M{hds up March and with Il
eudstiie assessment period Of voters
before the Levy Court. March also
shuts out any chance Of making pro-
perty transfers or eQualizing ofassess-
ments. As the assessments leave the
hands Of the Levy Court today they
will remain until another year. This
may probably be the last assessment
revision any Levy Court may have to
make in New Castle County, There is
no knowing what the Legislature will
do. 1t may arbitrarily pass commits
sioncrs bill which commission, APP
pointed by the Governor may present
themselves ct the Levy Court room
doors any day. These commissioners
may be given the power to annul every
appointment the Levy Court has made
They may turn out every collector
baililf, ianitor, foreman, trustee of the
poor, bridge tender, Jail commissioner,
county treasurer and constable.
Though the constitution expressly
says no Legislature shall pass an ex-
post facto law, the constitution may be
disregarded. The Five County Com
missioner bill prepared by Mr.. Bayard
and his colleagues certainly does dis
regard 1t, and as IL experimenting f.
sistance to an unconstitutional mas
ure the bill provides that any person
holding on to on Office after this bill
passes shall be fined $500 and be I'm
prisoned one year. Was there ever such
tyiannical measure? viii the Legis-
lature so fur lose its head as to pass
such a moa. ure? We have no hesita-
ton in saying that such bill II it is
enacted into Jaw ought to DO resisted
by nil tho legal force the constitution
and laws will afford. There can be no
fine and imprisonment imposed until
after conviction and we do not believe
any sensible jury in New Castle county
will convict for such truInped up of.
fence. Suppose conviction should en-,
sue, there would still remain the right
OF appeal TO the Supreme Court of the
Unitod States on the plea of the I'M
constitutlonality of tho law under
which the conviction was brought
about.
There is another way, better way

NO CHANCE FOR ESCAPE.
CAPTAIN MANNHEIM NOTIFIED OF
BALMACEDA'S DEATH.
The Suicide Was No Surprise to HINT
Was What He Expected-He Thinks
the Dictator Became Partially Insane
Under the Pressure of Events.

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 20.-The news of
ex-President Balmaceda's suicide was
not known to Captain Mannzen, of the
Itata, until communicated to him by an
Associated Press reporter at 10 p. m. to-
night. "My God" exclaimed the cap
tain on being told of the tragedy. "It
was what / expected. There was no
chance for him to escape. You
do not know, because you can
not know, the fury of a Chill
can mob under such circumstances.
1t would have been impossible for him
to escape. He ought to have been torn
to pieces had he been detected trying
to escape"
Captain Mannzen says Balmaceda left
wife, grown son and two daughters.
He thinks the dictator had become par
tally insane under the pressure Of
events of the last few months.
On being shown the dispatch
which says Balmaceda disclaimed
all knowledge of the acts of cru
city committed, Captain Mannzen said
that was false; that Balmaceda was a
brainy, shrewd man, who could not be
deceived. He thinks the death Of the
ex-president will be good for all, as it
will help to tranquilize the country.
The captain says the Itata will be re-
leased in few days and will proceed di-
rect to Valparaiso, and not go to San
Francisco, as has been reported.

OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. Pot will be re-
membered that short time ago word
was received that two vessels, COM
manded respectively by Dan and
Alexander Mclean, natives of Cape
Breton, N. S., had been seized by
Russian gunboat and the captains made
prisoners for sealing in Behring sea.
Friends of the two captives appealed to
the Dominion government to secure
their release. The minister of marine
promised to investigate the affair, and
through the British authorities
draw the attention of the Russian gov
ernment to the breach of the neutrality
laws, should it be found that the Nc
Leans sailed in Canadian vessels and
had retained allegiance to the British
crown. Tonight a telegram from the
collector of customs at Victoria stated
that the McLeans- were sailing
American vessels, and that it
was reported that they had become
American citizens. Confirmation would
be given to the latter statement by the
fact that only naturalized citizens OF
the United States can sail American
vessels. The relatives of the McLeans
will now seek the assistance of the
United States government to secure
their release. "a

of the hatred entertained toward the ex-
president.
The national holidays which were to
have ended Saturday night, have been
prolonged by the suicide. Feasts, illu-
minatlons and other celebrations in
honor of the success OF the congressional
party are kept up, followed by the
marching of frenzied crowds through ali
the streets, shouting songs of triumph
on account of the death of their former
ruler.
Valparaiso papers are just out with
extras from Santiago about the suicide.
The Argentine minister at Santiago res
olutely refused to furnish any of the
local papers with copy of the pathetic
letter written by Balmaceda short
time previous to his suicide, in which
he defends his course as president. The
correspondent of the Herald, alone Of
all the newspaper men in the city OF
Santiago, was able to get copy of this
interesting statement. 1t was through
the indefatigable efforts of Minister
Egan that the correspondent was sue
cessful.
1t is the general belief that Balma-
ceda's death will hasten in great de-
gree the restoration of peace through
out Chill. Now that the chief enemy
of the victorious juuta is no more, it is
likely his followers will be shown
mercy, since without Balmaceda to
direct them, they are very little to be
feared.
Italy, France, Sweden and Norway
followed the lead Of the United States
in the official recognition ofth junta.
Germany, it will be remembered, was
the second nation to do so. No official
recognition has yet come from England.
This creates considerable comment.

New York. Sept. 2O.-An exhaustive
study of the worlds food supply in the
forthcoming number of the American
Agriculturist declares that the half has
not been told about the European
shortage in breadstuffs, which not even
bountiful crop this year would have
relieved. The continental powers,
especially Russia, suppress facts. In
many Russian provinces the scarcity of
food became pronounced as far back as
February last. In the Konstantinovka

A SUDDEN FETCH UP.
Electricity Used for bringing Runaway
Horses to a Stop.

Electricity Used for Bringing Runaway
Horses to a Stop.
CHICAGO, Sept. 20.-A new system of
stopping runaway horses by electricity,
was given practical test on the Lake
front yesterday by A. B. Holson, the
inventor. Holson got into carriage to
which two horses were attached, and
with no driver on the box. A man
lashed the horses with whip, and they
dashed away at a breakneck speed.
Suddenly the animals raised themselves
on their launches and came to full
stop. The invention consists of dry
battery under the drivers box, con-
nected by wires with metal balls,
placed in the horses nostrils. There
are two buttons, one on the drivers
box. the other inside, which closes the
circuit when pressed. The result is a
mild shock which the inventor claims
will invariably bring the runaway horses
to a standstill.
