While upon the five hundred dollar
bin the genius of the American navy Is
now represented, Scott's entrance into
the City Of Mexico adorns the one thou

representing si,6s5, gives scenes e.
ceding the war Of the rebellion. II is
TO be deplored that n similar scheme
has not been followed In the issues of
the treasury, and that the admirable
series was not carried out in design up
to the present time. Is il because we
are less patriotic in our enterprise, less
national in our characteristics as u peo-
pie, that the medium through which
our domestic IN Is so largely
carried on has been Invested of its pa
triotic stamp? Certain 1t is that the best
talent of u people essentially artistic
has not been in these later days illus
trated in any of the recent issues OF pa

MANIPULATING CORN RATES.

CHICAGO, Oct. 10,-Discoveries have been
made which leave little doubt that at
least one road has decided to cut corn
rates between Chicago and the Atlantic
seaboard. Gill & Fisher of Baltimore.
who are the most extensive exporters of
grain in the United States, are said to be
up to their old tricks again. Two years
ago when there was q heavy corn crop.
this firm sent agents into Kansas and
Nebraska and made contracts for immense
quantities of corn on the basis OF a 2O-cent
rate from Chicago to the seaboard > cents
less than the regular rate. When the corn
was ready to be shipped the Baltimore &
Ohio reduced the rate to 20 cents, and, of
course, the inference was that 1T did SO by
previous agreement.
That the same game is to be played this
year seems almost certain. IL has been
discovered that the same firm Is again
contracting for corn, and at prices other
dealers cannot touch. The lowest price at
which competing firms can agree to de-
liver new corn in Baltimore Is 52.06 cents
per bushel, while Gill & Fisher have
booked it at 81 cents. 1t is claimed that
this could not be done without assurances
of reduction in rates, and 1T Is believed
that when the new corn begins to move the
Baltimore and Ohio will reduce the rate,
either openly or otherwise. Such
manipulations are, of course, calculated TO
lnJure CnlcagO as a gram maEAet, ana
many roads that have been expecting an
enormous tonnage as soon as corn begins
to move will find that they have been bad

THE OMAHA LYNCHERS,

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 1O.-This evening the
leaders of the mob which lynched COe, the
negro rapist, last night were arrested,
charged with murder in the first degree.
County Attorney Mahoney refused to al
low the release of the prisoners on bail,
and by p. M. large crowd had sur
rounded the Jail and threatened that if the
prisoners were not given their liberty the
Jail would be attacked and the men hber-
ated. The men under arrest are Edward
Neuschaffer. Patrick O'Herne. John Fritz,
X. G. Bloom, II. II. Brandies Edward
Fitzgerald and Captain O'Donohue.
Bloom is manager for S. z. Morse & Co,
the largest drygoods house in the city,
and O'Donohue is an eX-captain of police.
O'Herne was delegate to the Democratic
convention and was arrested while the
convention WAS in session.
County Attorney Mahoney sent word
that the men would not be released under
any circumstances, and the crowd at once
began to lay plans for attacking the Jail.
When the mob gathered in front of the
window where the crowd broke IN last
night, Jailor Harrigan appeared and an
nOunced that none of the meu wanted were
in the Jail and offered TO escort commit
tee through it to satisfy them that he was
telling the truth. The crowd accepted the
that the men were not there. This salts
fed the crowd and it dispersed. Five of
the prisoners have been released on bail,
and the remaining two have been spirited
out of Jail and taken to Papillon.

THE SUPREME COURT.

WASHINGTON, Oct. lot is expected
that there will be a postponement of all
the very important cases before the Su-
preme court, which were expected TO come
up at the beginning of the October term,
which opens on Monday. The Sayward
case. the case involving the validity of the
Mckinley tariff act, the lottery cases and
others which are Of sufficient Importance
to require that they should be considered
by the full court, or at least by substan-
italy full court. will go over until late
in November. The reason given for this
is that there will be at least two of the
justices absent. and possibly three. Just
ice Gray, who has been i'll with typhoid
fever will not be able to attend, and the
chief justice is expected to remain away
on account of the serious illness OF his
daughter in Chicago. The latest dispatch
received from him stated that her
thev had not given up all hope
of her recovery. Her death, however, is
feared momentarily. Justice Bradley IS
still i'll. but though unable TO get out Of
bed he wrote a note stating be would be
on hand at the meeting of the court on
Monday. Notwithstanding his extreme
age, Justice Bradley has an extraordinary
amount of pluck, and he will probably be
in his seat on the bench when the court
opens The chief justice aud Justice Gray
will be absent, however, and the docket Is
being prepared with the idea hat the ordi-
nary routine cases will be proceeded with,
dlsregarding the special assignments.
There have been about fifty cases below
the average filed for this term thus far
but that is not attributed To the new law
authorizing the circuit court of appeals,
since the judges of that court have not yet
been appointed.

JOHN BULLS NIGHTMARE.

LONDON, Oct. 10,-The Standard today
publishes a communication in regard to
the recent aggressive action Of Russia in
Pamir, which says: 1T is high time for
England to unsheath her sword in Asia.
The Russian tide of conquest which has
flowed steadily east for fifty years must be
sent sweeping back to the Caspian. Rus
sa has boldly pushed on until she now
stands at the very outposts of India"
The Standard, in commenting upon the
communication, says that while it has no
liking for the czars, its purpose is mot to
suggest alarm, but to enforce the necessi-
" of firmness and vigilence," adding,
There is no question of hostilities. but
If it were possible to conceive of a strug-
gle for supremacy in Asia, it should be de-
Cided in pamir"
