successfully cashier of dry goods firm,
bank clerk and paying teller. In 1864
Mr.. Hamill became a silent member of
prominent pork packing firm. Just here
an anecdote illustrating the mans high
sense of honor may not be amiss.
During the month of June, 1864, MIR.
Hamill made verbal agreement with a
quartermaster of the United States
army, giving the government an option
on a great quantity of pork. Gold sud
denly jumped 100 per cent. The quar-
termaster called for the meat, and Mr..
Hamill unhesitatingly, but regretfully,
complied with his part of the verbal con-
tract, although by failing to do so he
would have realized further profit of
$40, 900 on the pork, on account of the
sudden rise in gold.
Mr.. Hamill has been connected since
that time with some of Chicago's largest
commission houses, and 1.-THE world has
prospered him" He is a lover both of
art and music, and is considered a good
Judge of fine etchings. He is the owner
of magnificent collection, which was
almost miraculously saved from destruc-
ton at the time of the big fire. MIR.
Harnill has been connected with the
formation of several musical organiza-
tions, and it is principally as the result
of his efforts that Theodore Thomas was
induced to make Chicago his home. He
it was who organized the grand musical
festival which the great conductor went
to Chicago in 1882 to direct. Mr.. Ham
i'll is vice president of a bank and has
held scores of offices of trust and honor,
but never one of profit. He has a large
and interesting family.

Mrs. Maybrick's Grandfather.

Mrs. May brick, the American woman
who is in prison in England on life
sentence for the murder of her husband.
is the granddaughter of the founder of
the city of Cairo, in Illinois. His name
was Holbrooke and he died in 1858. His
widow has recently died, and her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Maybrick's mother, the Baron
ess Won Rogues, of Rouen, France, is
suing in the New York courts the trus-
tees of the estate for an accounting.
The baroness says she will use the
money to pay the English lawyers who
are trying to secure for Mrs. Maybrick o
new trial.

NEW MEXICO'S CAPITOL.
Another Indication that the Still
Hunt Didn't Pan Out--Firing
in Protests.

DENVER, May 31.--A Washington dis
patch to the Times says: The bll in
troduced by Delegate Joseph, OF New
Mexico providing that the governor
treasurer and auditor Of that territory be
created a commission 10 perform all
duties in relation to the issue and sale OF
bonds for the restoration of the capitol
building at Santa Fe, is creating quite q
disturbance, as is evidenced by the
numerous protests received by Delegate
Joseph from every section of the terri
! tory.
When the bill was referred to the COM
mittee on public buildings and grounds
and the hearing held, they told Mr..
Joseph that they were IN douot as to
whether congress had authority to legislate
for the territory and create debt with
out action on the part of the territorial
legislature. Mr.. Joseph by direction OF
the committee, called on Attorney Gen
eral Miller and was told by him that it
was his opinion that under the constitu-
ton congress had authority to egislate
for the territory, just the same as it does
for the District of Columbia, which differs
from all other territories only in that it
has no legislative power. The attorney
general said that congress could even
abolish the territorial legislature.
In this question of legislation politics
enters to great extent, the Democrats
holding TO the old principal of states
rights and that congress has no authority |
to create a debt in any state or territory |
without the consent of the people, and
the Republicans take the opposite view.
This controversy is stirring up the
people in the territory, and Mr.. Joseph
says that it is liable to open the old fight
regarding the location of the capitol. The
three cities interested have about an
equal population, and each is presenting
its claims and leading citizens of each
place are sending numerous kilograms
protesting against the passage OF this bill
Tor the reason above stated In addition
each city claims that it is the proper place
or the capitol location. The cities inter
sstod are Santa Fe, Albuquerque and Las
Vegas.
Mr.. Joseph says that be is expecting
delegations from these three cities in
y lashington before very long and he pre- t
ilcted that this controversy will over {
hadow all ther questions in the territory. {
This contest will be watched with great l
leal of interest here and it goes without .
aging that each city interested will get
N it's fighting clothes and enter the con- i
est determined to win. 9

ANTI-HILL CROWD.
soiid Anti-Silver Delegation Named
from New York in Favor of
Cleveland.

SYRACUSE, n. Y, June l.-Repyescn.
tatlves of 100000 anti-llill Democrats
concluded their convention here yester-
day. The platform, after expressing the
need oi tariff reform, and denouncing the
billion dollar" congress and Mckinley
laws, pays tribute to the prudent admin
lstratlon OF Grover Cleveland. eve
approve the use of both gold and silver
as money, and we demand that all dol.
lara, whether gold or silver. shall be equal
in value to each other, ia fact, as well as
by declaration OF law.
We are opposed to the free coinage of
silver by the United States alone at the
existing rate Of l6 to /, because we believe
that free coinage, at that ratio, will result
in the immediate disappearance of gold
from the business OF this country and
in the exclusive use of silver with certain
loss to every wage Garner and every
saving bank depositor, with impair
ment of credit and disastrous distur-
bance of business Of every kind. We
demand the repeal of the Sherman silver
law of 1890 as al obstruction of inter
national bi-metalism, and because it is
rapidly bringing this country TO silver
mono-metaism with all OF its attending
evils. We recognize the necessity OF an
organization through which the party
may direct its energies, but when such
an organization claims to he the party
itself instead of its instrument; when it
suppresses the voice and misrepresents
the desires of the party; when it calls the
caucuses at unaccustomed seasons and
upon insufficient notices when, regard
less OF the votes cast, it places upon the
committee to elect delegates to the con-
vention only those who without respect
to the voice and wishes OF their con-
stituents will agree in advance to support
the scheme and the oligarchy it has estab-
lished; when it gives notices in advance
that they who will not agree to be sub
servent will not be admitted, then it
ceases to be representative, creates dis.
content, rouses resentments and imperils
the success of the party. In this emer-
gency it becomes the duty of the origi-
nal elements of the party to take such
action as will restore to it Just relations
between its members and their agents."
The platform closes by stating that the
choice OF an overwhelming majority OF
New York Democrats is Cleveland, but
the delegation is instructed to act as a
unit according to the determination of
majority of its members.
Judge Sunderlin, of Schuyler county,
read the list of district delegates at large
chosen by the districts and by the com
mittee on delegates to the Chicago con-
vention.
The work of the committee was ap-
proved, and thus the question OF protest
or contest has been determined, and the
course Of contest and demand at Chicago
for the seventy.two seats of New York has
been fixed upon.
The delegates at large are r. F. Coudert,
of New York; Alex. L. Orr, Of Brooklyn
Charles +. Bishop, of Buffalo, and Edward
ex'mayor of Troy.

The Great Night.

LONDON, May 3O.-An innovation in
the Corbett-Slavin fight was hav-
ing the ring twenty feet in diameter
instead of twenty-four. Among the bets
recorded are one of $500 to Gl00 on
Slayin, made at the Victoria club, and
one of G2O0 to eI00 against Slavin at the
Criterion.
Should Sullivan win from Corbett on
September 7, the championship will not
be affected, as Sullivan claims he is too
good to fight colored man. If Corbett
should win he will doubtless be called
upon to meet Jackson.
Jackson and Slavin have been matched
to fight before. The arragenent were
made before they left Australia, but they
have never faced each other in the ring
up to date. 1t is claimed that Slavin was
the cause Of the failure of each match.
They have both fought and whipped the
same class of men. AS rule Slavin has
put his man to sleep more easily than the
dusky pugilist has accomplished the same
feat.
