How the Elcctlons Foot Un.

How the Elections Foot Up.
The results of last weeks elections. as
they are learned in full, says the New York
Tribune are found more satisfactory to the
Republicans than to the Democrats. As it
is important that there should be correct
understanding of these decisions of the
people, it must be remembered that In New
York, Massachusetts,, Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Iowa there have been Democratic gov
errors, while a new opposition party had
swept Kansas, and threatened to take Ne
braska and Colorado from the Republican
column. The Republicans have failed to
elect governors i'm New York, Massachu-
sets and Iowa, but have elected govern
or in Ohio, which is an important gain.
They have carried Pennsylvania, Nebraska
and Colorado by large maiorities, and in
Kansas have practically eXtinguished the
Farmers Alliance as political force
Moreover, they have carried the legislat-
ures of Massachusetts, Ohio and Iowa, in
surfing practical results of the highest i'm
portance, and by certainly controlling one
house in New York have gained power to
oppose partisan legislation here, even if
the present expectation of a Republican
majority in both houses should be disap-
pointed. These are definite and large
gains. which have great significance with
regard to the future.
ON purely locdlissues Massachusetts and
Iowa have elected Democratic governors.
and yet the people AT the same elections
have chosen Republican legislatures Great
Republican gains appear in Massachusetts
in the legislative election, and in Iowa the
Democratic disappointment at the loss of
the legislature robs the victory of practical
fruits. In Illinois the Republicans have
swept Chicago by a heavy majority. In
Kansas they have carried nearly all of the
counties reported, and in nine judicial dis
tricts the Peoples party has elected only
one Judge, the Democrats and Republicans
combined have elected two and the rest
have been elected 10y the Republicans.
The contest in Pennsylvania was largely ON
local questions, but the Republican major
tv is much above 10000. In Colorado the
Republicans have carried every county, and
have q majority OF about 10000 in the
state. In South Dakota there was a con-
gressonal election to fill a vacancy. The
state has not been divided into congression-
al districts, so the election was general.
The Republican candidate was elected by a
good-sized majority. which shows clearly
how that new state l., to be counted for
next year.
But it is in Ohio that the gains of great
est practical importance have been achieved.
The splendid majority for Major Mckinley
not only crowned with triumph his services
in framing the new tariff. hut secured a
legislature overwhelmingly Republican.
This body will lose no time in repeating
the infamous gerrymander, 10y which the
Democratic minority was enabled TO elect
two-thrds of the representatives in Con-
greSs, and this change will insure larger
/ Republican vote in the next house of rep
resentatives. The same legislature will
elect Republican senator to the place
/ held by Senator sherman. which is very
I important point to be made sure of.

An epidemic of fatal disease known as
Asiatic black tongue has made its appear
ance near Kirklin, Ind. A few days ago
the disease attacked family i'm which the
mother and five children died, and the ia
ther became insane. Physicians say the
disease is known to them only as it is de-
scribed in medical books. For the first
few hours the patient is affected with a
mild fever the tongue then becomes in
famed and assumes huge proportions. The
organ then turns very black i'm color, de-
composition sets in and i'm the paroxysms
of the most intense suffering death ensues.
Later news from the affected district says
seven new cases have developed.
An epidemic, which is described in some
of the dispatches as the Siberian plague
and in Others a typhus, is officially reported
to have made its appearance in the famine
stricken districts of Russia. The govern
ment reports issued at ST. Petersburg admit
that the peasants are dying of it by thou
sands, and so fast that it is impossible to
bury them with religious rites. 1t is prob
able, however, that the epidemic is no 9th
er than the Asiatic cholera a pestilence
which past experience has shown to have
invariably followed i'm the wake of every
great famine. The magnitude of the hor-
rOr which threatens may be in part realized
when it is remembered that 100000

CURRENT AFFAIRS.
THE NEWS IN BRIEF.


A constitutional crisis has occurred i'm
Brazil the details of which are not vet
fully understood. 1t appears, however.
to have grown principally out of the fnan-
cial condition of the new republic. Presi-
dent Fonseca and his ministers have made
recommendations which have been reject
ed 10y the legislators. Congress has passed
measures which have been vetoed by the
president. Finally an act was adopted reg
ulating the procedure whenever president
was subjected to impeachment proceedings.
When this was returned with a message of
executive disapproval it was passed over
the veto. The president thereupon dis
solved Congress, proclaimed martial law,
put the military forces in possession of the
public buildings and ordered new cleo
ton. The dissolution of congress elect
ed for fixed term appears to have been an
unconstitutional act, applicable only upon
the theory that Fonseca has had recourse
to the same vicious eXpedients which other
military executives have often adopted i'm
Spanish America.
The latest news from Brazil indicates am
alarming state of revolution. -Four PROV
inces have already seeded from the union,
and general civil war seems to be nevita-
BILE. President Fonseca is said to be suf-
fering from an incurable disease which
must soon prove fatal.

Arrest of skilrnl Letter Bon Thieves.

PoSt-otiice inspectors have just made the
arrest of one of the most skilful, audacious
and troublesome gangs of thieves on record.
The men are four in number and their
operations have been confined exclusively
to the street letter boxes in the leading
cities of the country East and West. Their
work began in August of last year, and
has been Systematically continued ever
since. Their scheme was simplicity itself.
They would go to some city, break the lock
off letter box, make a key which would
fit all the other letter boxes of the city, and
then open and rob the boxes in the business
section which promised the most plumber.
The letters were taken to hotel where
they stayed, carefully opened by wettng
the gummed flap, and those which contain
ed no money or checks were resealed and
mailed so as to make the complaints to the
department as few as possible. The money
was pOcketed, and the checks were raised
and cashed. Not less than SD. O00in value
of these checks has come into the posses
sion of the inspectors, and double this
amount must have been realized by the
thieves. Three of them were arrested in
Atlanta and the fourth in New York city.
