privileges. the Manitoba legislature in turn

matter come properly before parliament. and
ii will remain with that body to say whether

There was violent demonstration Of social
lists at Client, Belgium, yesterday. Speeches
favoring universal suffrage and otherwise in
fammatory were made. The socialists paraded
the streets singing revolutionary songs and
hooting the aristocrats. The disorder became
So great that the police were forced to charge
upon the crowd with drawn swords and revolv-
ers. At length mounted troops which had
been summoned to aid the hard-pres7ed police
arrived and succeeded in qCclling the riot.
Many were injured. The rinS!eaders of the
mob were arrested. The market square pave
ment was covered with the debrIs of broken
seats and fences, sticks and stones and rude
weapons used by the mob.

Supreme Court Judge and ConGressmen-st-
Large to BE Chosen.
In addition to thirty-two presidential electors
Pennsyivanis will today elect judge Of the su-
preme court, the candidates being John Dean,
republican; Christopher Heydrick, democrat;
Amos Briggs, prohibition; R. B. McCombs,
peoples party, and N. l.. CREST socialist-labor

crst' Simon b. Chase and Jas. L. McCrary, pro-
hibition; S. z. Chase and G.. ". Dawson,
peoples, and J. Mahlon Barnes and Thomas
Grundy, socialist-labcr. Twenty-eight MEM
bers of Congress, twenty FIVE state senators and
2O4 members Of the state house of representa-
tives are to be elected. The incoming legisla-
ture will choose a successor to US. Senator
Quay.
Comparison will be made with the 1885 vote.
when Harrison was given a plurality over Cleve-
land OF 79.458
The registration was higher than that of four
wears ago, but 1t is doubtful if full vote will
be polled for the reason that Pennsylvania will
try the reform ballot for the first time this
year. The complicated character of the new
ballot Will make vote counting tedous process,
and IL Is not expected that anything like u cor
rect estimate of the vote of Pennsylvania can
be formed until late Wednesday morning.
Both the republican and democratic state
chairmen have gone to their homes to vote.
Republican Chairman Reeder before leaving
declined to give ont a statement for publica-
ton. He expressed himself, however, az per-
fectly satisfactory to the result. Dc has a
private estimate of the Legislature. which is
said to give the republicans fifty majority on
joint ballot, and as to the state result he gives
no concern, as he figures out between 70. 600
and 80, 900 majority for Harrison.
Democratic Chairman Wright gave out
statement, IN which he says the reports of his
canvassers indicate Enthusiastically such gain
in the state as will leave the republicans no ma
jority but what they can get in PHILADELPHIA
He expects the legislature to be close The
publican city committee estimates TIarrsou's
majority In Philadelphia at 80. 900. The demo-
cratic city committee like the state committee,
will give out no figures.

nell may be named by the court to look after
her husbands person and property.
Kernel was taken to court from Bloomingdale

adjoining the court room until after the wit

commissioners and jury might examine him.
His vacant stare and totteriug walk told the

In eastern Siberia lies Lake Baikal. which is
mile deep and has an area one-third greater
than Lake Erie says writer in the Arctic
Ocean. From November to April it is frozen,
and AZ the lake is part of the great commercial
highway between Russia and China, it is
crossed in winter upon the ice. For about
mile from shore the ice had a thin layer of
snow over it, but we gradually left this sort of
dazzling white carpet and at length reached
the clear ice when saw around me the m ost

Owing to the transparency of the water, the
ice presented everywhere the appearance of
polished crystal, and although undoubtedly of
great thickness. was SO coloress that it was like

the surroundings was occasionally broken. how
