The New Orleans Affair.

NEW ORLEANS, La, May 13-The
grand jury held an all day session and
considered number of matters in con-
nection with the Hennessy case. One
of these was Consul COrtes' letter at
lacking the grand jury's position. To-
night, as a result of it's deliberations,
that body sent the consul a letter stat
ing that the tenor of his communication
was not consistent with the official dig
nifty of that body, and they therefore
felt constrained to return the document
without further comment. Consul
Cortes leaves in the morning for Italy
The citizens committee of fifty has vir-
tually completed it's report, and will
submit it to secret meeting of
it's members tomorrow night.
This important document will prob
ably be lengthy one, and besides re-
cital of the steps taken to bring the as
sassins of Chief Hennessy to justice,
will contain the result of its investiga-
ton into the existence here of secret
murderous societies of foreign origin,
with recommendations as to best meth
DDS to be pursued for their extermina-
ton. The next sensation in the case
will be special message from the may
or to the council in answer to Chevalier
Cortes' recent letters, which it is said
will prove racy document and will
contain all that the authorities have
been able to gather of the consul's
movements and associations since he
took up his residence here.

Another Subject for Judge Lynch.

KANSAS CITY, May ia special to
the Star from Topeka says:
Great excitement prevails at Carbon
dale, a small station on the Santa Fe
railroad, over the arrest of a negro
named Frye, who criminally assaulted
Mrs. Mitchell widow living two miles
east of town. Yesterday morning the
negro went to the widows house and
made an insulting proposal to her. She
attempted to close the door, but he re-
sisted, and forcing himself into the
room attacked her. Her cries for help
scared him away, but not until he had
badly bruised her and torn most of her
clothing from her body. Her children
gave the alarm and a posse was soon
after him. He was not captured until
10 o'clock last night, when he was found
in hay loft about seventeen miles east
of town. Mrs. Mitchell identified the
negro, and so incensed are the people
that it became necessary to spirit him
away secretly to Linden to prevent
lynching.

More Malta Murders.

New YORK, May 13.-Advices from
near Carriente, Argentine Republic,
give the details of the murder of a am
lily of four by order of the Malta. They
were Ricardo Monari, his wife and two
sons. They had incurred the enmity of
Luigi Salazzi because they did not en-
courage his attentions to Leonard Spac-
CT, a niece of Monari's wife, who lived
with them. Monari and Solazzi had
several quarrels. In February Monari
received a note signed by Roberto
Franceoni, president of the Malta, com
handing him to give Leonard to Solaz-
70, under penalty OF death. He again
refused Solazzi's command for the girl.
On the night of March Sth, while the
family slept, six masked men armed
with knives entered the house and the
father Monari was stabbed and killed.
The noise aroused the others and in the
fight that ensued SOlazzi and Mrs.
Monari and the two sons were killed.
Leonard escaped by hiding. The Malta
then put the bodies in sacks and threw
them in the river, but they afterwards
foated and were found. Documents on
Solazzi's body showed that he and his
companions were members of the Malta.

Apiece.


Apiece.
ALBANY, Ca, Aug. ia remark
able tale comes from Worth county of
the depravity Of a young mother on one
hand and the kindness of a man and
wife on the other.
For twelve years Ranse Afford has
been happily married, he and his wife
living uost of the time in East Dough
erty, where they worked on a farm.
This year, however, Afford and his wife
moved to Acrce, where they set up on
a small farm for themselves. They are
Industrious negroes, and enjoy the re-
spect and confidence of all who know
them. But the union of this couple
has never been blessed by issue, and
they have always felt a loneliness that
they could not describe on that &C.
count. Affords wife though now has
two children on whom to lavish her af-
fection and to whose training she may
devote her life.
She learned recently that negro girl
living near Isabella, had given birth to
twins, but to this she attached very
little Importance until She heard that
the young mother cared nothing for
her offspring and wished to dispose Of
them. at once Affords wife repaired
to Isabella, and going to the home OF
the young girl at once began a negotia-
ton for the babies \ trade was soon
made, aud the mother demanded so
cents apiece for the children, the price
was quickly paid. and the adopted
mother marched off triumphantly with

ses has to be raised by taxing YOU and

ses has to be raised by taxing you and
me, and all Of us, according to OUT prop
erty. The federal Government has re-
sorted to income taxes, and resorts at
the present time TO internal revenue
taxes. If we, in South Carolina, could
substitute in the State the power Of
collecting just the taxes that are now
collected by the General Government
on the article of tobacco alone within
the borders of South Carolina, or on
WhlSkey, our income would be SO assur-
ed and the burdens Of our people so
much lightened that we would have
comparatively no financial trouble at
all, and with the revenue tariff proper
any danger that the Government in
time of peace would have to resort to
Gny of these extraordinary and irregu-
lar methods Of taxation which were in
tended by the Constitution to be exer-
cised only in times of war and other
emergecies of a public nature, and we
would ali be in a much better condition.
Therefore, that doctrine which has been
announced and m tintained by one class
OF statesmen from the days of Jeffer
son down, that the tariff for revenue
should be levied in such manner as
to furnish the resources of the Govern
ment economically conducted, is in the
direction of low trade rather than high
trade, because, as has been demonstrat-
ed by the operation of the Mckinley
bill, a high tariff cuts off revenue, and
by low tariff the revenue would be in
creased, and therefore, be ample for all
the demands Of the Government. In
the same manner that an excursion
train on the railroad will realize larg-
er amount at low rates than they would
at high rate because of the greater
inducement to travel which the low
rates affords, so the reduction of duties
cheapens products. increases their iin-
poItation and the amount of revenue
raised therefrom, and gives to the States
a field where they can resume somewhat
the old Importance of States in this
Union, or at least of having the power
of raising revenues untrammelled by
the General Government entering into
what is peculiarly their sphere of taxa
alton. Applause.
