ALL WANT HALL.
A Patent Right Agent Is in Uni
versal Demand.

MARSHALL, To-, Jan. 13.-There is an
interesting legal squabble here over L.
E. Hall, wanted at Maryville, Mo-, for
swindling a man named Denny by con-
verting patent right contracts into
promissory notes. Hall is in
Jail here, while Denny, his victim. the
sheriff of Nodoway county, Mo-, with
requisition papers from the governor,
and Constable Worley, of Hopkins, Mo-,
with warrant for Halls arrest, are in
the city trying to get possession of the
prisoner. The latter'S attorney secured
a writ of habeas corpus from Judge
Hindman. of this district. which was
served the moment the requi-
Sltion was read. The chief
of police of Kansas City also
wants Hall, while the sheriff of this
county last night received warrant for
his arrest from Storm Lake, To-. and
about fifty letters from parties In vari-
Gus parts of the country making in
quiries regarding the prisoner. Some
kind of decision is expected in the
case to-day. Hall is said to be worth
100000, and is making a desperate fight
for liberty. He halls from Chicago.

first mail after they are posted. One of
our jobblng houses recently advertised a
postponement of a sale set for partic-
ular day because the announcements,
mailed in time. had been kept at the
postoffice for day or more. This is
sometimes the case with letters which
should go out ON the afternoon west
bound trains. Every once in while
they will be held back for twelve or six
teen hours. and no inconsiderabIe trou-
BILE will ensue.
We suppose that it is impossible to
guard against all such things. A clerk
who makes mistake now and then can
not be discharged. because his success
sor might do worse, and the constant
breaking in of new employees would dis
arrange the service entirely. Still, we
think it wise for any one who is put to
loss or inconvenience by any such ex-
perience to notify the department. 1t
will be enabled in this way to test the
efficiency of its force and perhaps locate
the drones. If such mistakes are due to
lack of sufficient help, these COM
plants will give the postmaster a
ground for asking for larger appropri-

TO 1NDoRsE THE BONDS.

The fact that the senate committee on
foreign relations has unanimously ap-
proved Senator SHERMAN'S bill in favor
of indorsing the bonds of the Nicarau-
qua Canal company to the amount of
S100,00O,0O0 will secure for it much
favorable consideration. The expert
ence in the government connection
with the opening of the first Pacific rail-
road is not calculated to induce further
investments of a similar character. The
country will wish to be quite sure that
there are no Credit Mobilier jobs en-
bodied in it, or that the government
is not to pay the bonds and be put
off indefinitely with its claims. The
committee, however, agrees in the be-
lief that the conditions are so guarded
that the United States will not be
called upon to pay either interest
or principal of the bonds. 1t be-
lleyes that the income of the canal will
pay for its construction. The reason
for the Endorsement of the paper is that
it will make the bonds sell at par. and
at half the interest that would be the
case if issued only by private corpo-
rationS. This would allow of tolls one
half less than if there was no govern
ment aid. Presuming this to be the fact,
it is a matter of considerable interest,
as the canal will be mainly used by
American ships. The enterprise is to
be controlled by Americans, and not to
be interfered with by other countries.
1t is the only cut likely to be had for
vessels passing between the Atlantic
and Pacific coasts of this country, and
will have value in the way of holding
the Pacific roads in check. EXtortion-
ate rates cannot be had. 1t seems al
most necessity that the canal should

THE LOCAL POSTAL SERVICE.

There has been good deal Of i'm
provement of late in our postal service
in St. Paul. This is particularly true
of service between this city and Mime
apolis. 1t used to be common remark
that letter addressed to Chicago would
reach it's destination sooner than one
mailed to place in our sister city up
the river. This was a matter of good
deal of Inconvenience, because it is
very difficult to calculate on such
thing, Business transactions would in
sensibly be shaped on the assumption
that man who lived in Minneapolis
could be reached very readily through
the postoffice. When letter was de-
layed or miscarried it confused impor-
tant matters not a little. Postmaster Lee
and Postmaster Ankeny have removed
this reproach very effectually, and the
thanks of the community are due them.
There is still some complaint, how
ever, about the careless work in our
postoffice. One of our banks. for ex-
ample, says that some little while ago
1t addressed a letter very plainly to
South st. Paul. After a week or so it
was received at its destination, with
postmarkS which showed that it had
travelled in the meanwhile as far as
South Bend. Ind. Similarly letter
was sent to Minneapolis by way of Phil
adelphia. There is frequently. too.

MADRID, Jan. l3.-Dispatches re-

lewski, the alleged murderer of Gen.
Seliverskoff, was captured, state that
there is no longer any reason for doubt
ing that the man arrested is the indi-
vidual known as Padlewski, for whom
the European police have been so long
searching. A photograph of the pIis-
oner has been received from Paris by
the police at Oleot and it completely es-
tablishes the identity of the man now in
custody. Physicians who have exam
ined the man arrested at Oleot found his
teeth to be natural and sound, whereas
Padlewski's are known to be defective
and several of them are false. This has
raised doubt as to the identity of the
man arrested, just as everybody imme-
diately concerned felt certain that the
alleged murderer of Gen. SeliyerskoH
was in the hands of the police.

Light Upon 1t.
LONDON, Jan. 13.-John Morley, in a
speech at Newcastle tonight, said that
whatever else might happen at the
next general election, it was certain
that the dissatisfied party would cease
to exist. The situation in Eng
land was purely personal one, and as
for Ireland her future depended upon
herself alone. After reading Parnell's
speech at Limerick. Gladstone MAIN
taIns that he did not ask binding as
sent to any proposal made at Hawarden.
He naturally named to Mr.. Parnell vari-
riOus suggestions in order to improve
his knowledge of the field within
which the eX-ministerS might con-
fer with the consent of the Irish
member. Neither the constabulary
nor the arts tocracy was mentioned at
the Hawarden interview, and it was not
proposed to hand over the judiciary to
the British government for a decade, or
for any other period Mr.. Morley de-
MED positively that he had ever offered
Mr.. Parnell the chief secretaryship of
Ireland. He ridiculed the idea that
home rule was dead. and declared that
it was the duty of the Liberals to for
ward the movement by every legitimate
means in their power.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 13.-Gen. Bragg

to-day that he was out of the race for
the United States senatorship. There
is now no doubt whatever that
Col. Villas will get there without
opposition. His keeping up of head
quarters is but a formaIity. The sena-
torlaI caucus will be held early next
week in all probability, although the
election does not take place until the
9th. Mr.. Winans, of GAINESVILLE, is sore
on the Villas machine, but he does not
enter the contest this year for fear
of injuring his chances in the
future. Two years from now, if DEM
ocracy is still in the ascendancy, there
will be merry fight. with Villas dis
posed of, but there will be no fight this
year. The assembly Democratic caucus
tonight selected j. j. Hogan. of La
Crosse, for speaker, on the first formal
