The Startling Revelations of High Toned
SocIoty in "nerric" EngInnd
[corvright 1so2, by le Nelr Yorr associated PresSl
LONDON, Oct. IA sharp and proba-
bly, salutary shock has been given to the
highest social circles by the startling
exposure in regard to the prevalence OF
drunkenness among aristocratic ladies
made by Lady Frederick Cavendish and
the Duchess OF Bedford at the church
congress. Hitherto allegations Of
widespread drinking practices among
women OF rank and fashion have been
deemed prejudiced gossip, but nothing
that rumor ever suggested equals the
outspoken revelations made by these
highly placed leaders OF society.
Lady Frederick Cavendish said that
she had recently been staying at coun-
try mansion where roomy diring room
chairs were still used, the seats OF
which were deeply curved to save the
gentlemen from falling out alter din
ner; that although heavy drinking had
been abandoned by the men, the
women were becoming inveterate tip
piers, that many ladies have recourse
to pick-me-ups Mt II a. M, brandy and
soda during the day, wine at dinner
and something hot at bedtime. She
found lady who could not get through
the exertions Of the London season
without taking cordial" q pretty
name for dram kept handy, and
that after certain morning concert,
lady beside her had called for white
cup" deceptive name for cham
payne sup.
Lady Cayendish protested especially
against the new fashion Of young ladies,
and old ones, too, accompanying the
gentlemen to the smoking room alter
dinner, and sharing not only the cigars,
but also the spirits. She said that
distinguished physician had assured
her that many ladies who were living
idle lives had consulted him for nervous
symptoms, which revealed, in perfect
Inconsistencies on their part, eondi-
tionof alcoholism bordering on delirium
tremens; but that alcohol was not the
only fashionable failing, as chloral,
chlorodyne and morphia were taken in
secrecy in boudolrs and were adding to
the maladies Of modern life. The
duchess OF Bedford, taking up the
theme. put the blame for these evils on
the straining OF nerve power through
the supposed exigent demands oil society
until the nerves require tillip.
The wiie Of Archbishop Benson. Sir
William Herschell, the dean OF Rochea-
ter, and others, continued in d similar
strain. The whole topic is deeply stir

LONDON, Oct. Tho sensational ro-
ports current OF theprevalencc ofscvere
depression in the commercial and agri.
cultural interests OF Great Britain have
caused the Associated Press represent
atiye here to make special inquiries at
the labor bureau and in other quarters.
The officials of the labor bureau stated
that while the prevailing depression IS
considerable, it is not unprecedented.
Taking the returns OF the whole OF the
trades union reporting during Septem'
ber, five per cent OF the number OF work
men are shown to be out Of employ
ment. Tho reports embrace 100000
union workmen. The ship building
trade is the worst affected. Next comes
the cotton, iron and steel industries.
Thesum of information resulting from
other inquiries is as follows: On the
Clyde, the wages OF engineers and iron
founders and all ship builders will be
reduced 10 per cent on Monday. while
in Belfast and on the Tyne and Wear,
tho ship builders will be subjected to
similar reduction on November Z.
Among the Welsh tin plate makers,
5000 men arc idle, and work generally
proceeds on day contracts only. Sew
eral Of tho largest works in Swansea
partially stopped operations on Mon
day last and number OF others have
given their men notice OF suspension.
In the iron and steel trades in north
OF England, II fall OF 2s 4d per ton in the
price OF bars and plates, and n growing
scarcity OF orders have compelled re.
ductioh in wages OF l24 per cent The
The Scotch steel makers propose 10 re-
strict their production. The Scotch
mineral oil companies have given their
workmen notice OF reduction OF 10
per cent. In the cotton trade the fed
Grafton OF master spinners has decided
on 8 per cent reduction in wages on
the first OF November. The operatives
make counter proposal for short time
and challenge the masters to a strike
which will involve 100000 spindles.
Regarding agriculture, the position
of the farm laborers in the midland
counties will illustrate the situation in
all the counties. The farmers there
have reduced wages six pence per day,
the men now getting 12s weekly in
stead OF los.
Many farmers have paid off their la
borers for the winter. The low prices
of wheat are reducing the cultivators to
beggary, and the agricultural depression
ia likely 10 create n greater public
clamor, as the various interests OF the
landlords, farmers and laborers each
have the power to sound the political
trump. The farmers project a national
agricultural conference, at which re-
duced rents and the location OF land
court for fixing rents vii! be advocated.

CoFFEYvILLE, KAN. Oct. 1.-The ex-
element over the terrible tragedy OF
Wednesday, which resulted in the
deaths OF four of the Dalton gang and
four citizens, defenders Of the city
against the Dalton's raid, still continues.
Hundreds of visitors arrive on every
train to visit the scene Of tho DaIton's
last raid, and the city is crowded with
strangers,
Trouble was narrowly averted this
morning when Sheriff Callahan wanted
to move Emmett Dalton to Indepen-
dence, and had he carried out the plan
there would have been war; for al
though the citizens are willing that he
should receive all the care necessary,
they will not submit to his being moved.
1t Is however, only question OF time
with him. His mother, brothers Ben
and Simon and sister. Mrs. Whipple,
arrived this morning from kingtisher.
In conversation with reporter to-
day, Ben said:
II was sick in bed at our home on our
farm four miles north OF Kingiisher
when we received the news OF this awful
affair, butmanaged to come with mother
and tho others. We had not seen TIE
boys for two years and had no idea
where they were, or what they were do
ing. / never had much in common
with the ones who lie mere dead and
dying, as ] am a farmer, and try to be u
good citizen. / wish you would state
that mother and have no ill-feeling
against the people OF Coaeyville, and
no words oil censure. They simply did
their duty, and while we naturally dc.
plore tho loss OF our boys, we also sor-
row for the citizens who gave up their
lives in defense of the town. Emmett
tells me he has been treated better than
he hoped for by your people, and We
are feeling sad, but not angry"
Broadwell and L. b. Wilcox, brother,
and brotber-in-law OF Dick Broadwell,
called Texas Jack" arrived from
Hutchinson to-day. The former is
travelling salesman Tor the Boston Tea
Company, OF Chicago, the latter a
grocer at Hutchinson. Wilcox said:
I'VE were as greatly shocked by TINS oC-
currence and were entirely ignorant Of
Dicks being with this gang. We had
not heard from him since May. He was
never wild OF drinker, or gambler, and
although COW boy, we always thought
him TO be straight and law abiding. His
mother and sister Jennie, George and
my wife compose the family, and all
liva in EIutnhibSnn
Broadwell's body was taken up and
placed in coffin his family purchased
for him and then placed back in the
grave.
The funeral of Marshal Connolly took
place this morning and was largely at
tended. The body was taken to Inde-
pendence, the Missouri Pacific railway
furnishing free OF charge two coaches
for friends. A meeting was held to-
night for contribution fund for the re-
lief OF the widows and children of the
murdered citizens. The express and
railroad companies will give liberal
sums.
Cashier Ayers is still improving.
Relic hunters took everything they
could lay their hands on, even hairs
from the tails OF the robbers horses.

ovation rendered to any man within

nor Mckinley said, among other things:
"After all, political parties are but
the agents OF the people. The Republi-
cans have no desire to shirk their plat
form, and are determined that the
Democrats shall not escape theirs. The
leaders OF the Democratic party have
been financially unsound for thirty
years. For instance, take the green
back currency, the national banks, ma
tional bonds. unlimited coinage, the
eighty cent dollar, and now the abolition
Of the ten per cent tax on state banks.
They have been beaten in every posi-
tion they ever took"
He then spoke on the fiscal policy oil
the Democratic party. The people, he
said did not want to have 70 carry .

currency, but to degrade labor.
"Is Grover Cleveland better consti-
tutional lawyer than was Jefferson, or

Henry Watterson greater expounder
of the constitution than was Henry
Clay Of his old Kentucky home2 Are
