How the Republicans are Seeking to
Make Political Capital by Despicabie
Means.
The following circular is being sent
to Democrats all over the city by
the Republican executive committees
literary bureau. 1t is despicablc at
tempt to inject sectarian feelings into
the campaign for the benefit of the Re-
publican party, but it is so clumsily
constructed that its object is evident at
glance. 1t speaks for itself and will
prove failure. Here it is in full:
WILMiNGToN DEL, March 14th 1902
M Dear Sir: You believe that you are not
assessed, because of your politics, for the
Republican politicians have been telling
you so for the last month. But you are
mistaken and so are the politicians mis-
taken. For there hundreds of Democrats
in this town who are not assessed, either.
| was not assessed, and likewise three of
my Democratic neighbors on my block.
Mike Conway would not assess us because
we are not enrolled at st. Peters or st.
Paul's. Jack O'IIara also carries cross on
his thumb, and they assessed no one who
was not Catholic. If you celebrate St.
Patrick's Day. next Thursday, o. Hara and
Conway would have you on both their
lists.
Ii you think | am mistaken, Just go to
the court house tomorrow and ask whether
YOU are assessed. You can also ask about
your other friends and neighbors, and you
will find none assessed except those
who have been in the court house tins
month. Yours truly, PROTESTANT.
The only reply deemed necessary to
this wretched screed is to say to Demo-
Gratis who fear they are not assessed
that they need not go to the courthouse.
BY calling at the rooms of the Young
Mems Democratic Club, No. S12 Market
street, they can find out quickly whether
they arc assessed or not. If not assessed,
it will then be in order to apply at the
courthouse.

AT Thursdays session of municipal
court Constable Charles Green was re-
arraigned on the charge of breaking into
the residence of Mrs Maggie Clark, No.
t120 Conrad street, over which ques-
tion of law was raised Thursday by W.
S. liilles, attorney for Green, in reference
to the wording of the warrant. Judge
Ball ruled that MS the officer had preyi-
ously served distress warrant on
March 2d, he was personally responsible
for the goods TO the landlord and that
the officer, under these circumstances,
had lawful right TO make a forciblo
entrance should peaceful measures not
suffice, but otherwise, not having served
a distress warrant, or levied on the
goods, he would be liable to prosecution
had he made any forcible entrance into
the premises. The wording Of the war
rant was sustained, but the case was
dismissed upon the above grounds.

In the absence of Speaker Capron today
Hon. 4. L. Wilson was elected Speaker
pro tenn.
Mr.. Perce of Providence called from the
Speakers table 1.-THE several petitions for
Presidential suffrage for women.
Mr.. Perce gave lucid and entertaining
explanation of the matter. He showed
how it was within the fprovince OF the
constitution TOT grant the suffrage but
doubted the wisdom Of forcing it upon
the state at this time.
The petitioners were unanimously given
leave to withdraw.
Mr.. Lowe, from the Judiciary Commit
tee, reported a bill providing for the
election of assessors of taxes In towns
for three years. Passed.
An act in amendment of the act entitled
"Tho Lien of Mechanics" came from Mr..
Allen.
Mr.. Baker moved its indefinite post
ponement.
This was opposed by Mr.. Perce and Mr..
Heffernan.
The matter was further argued by
Messrs. Allen and Brown, In favor of the
act, and Mr.. Ruckert against IL.
The bill was indefinitely postponed.
The senate did very little business aside
aside from concuring with the House in
the act authorizing the planting OF shade
trees in Providence.

ARBITRATION TREATY.
Unels sam May he Muieted by the Dam
age Clause and Adverse Decision.


WASHINGTON. April 2i.--Since the rati-
hcation of the Behring sea arbitration
treaty and the machinery arranged to put
IL In operation, there has b cen more or less|
discussion among diplomats 'as to the
probable outcome Of the deliberations of
that International gathering. A gentle
man who has taken prominent part in
our diplomatic controversies, aud who
has also been engaged by foreign govern.
hents in looking after interests at the
American capital, has come into possession
Of information through conversations with
representatives OF some of the European
nations which lead him To the belief that
the decision OF the arbitrators will not
be in the interests of the United States.
II his prediction should be realized, and
the claimed purchased jurisdiction of the
United States over Behring sea beyond
certain lines be recognized by interna
tional law, this government will not only
be placed in very unfortunate attitude,
but will be compelled, under conditions of
the treaty, To pay an exhorbitant award
for alleged damages to British subjects
for seizures aud losses Of pelagic seal fish
ermen extending over period of many
years. IL is not thought here by those
who have given this matter careful study
that the United States will get out OF
this complication as satisfactorily as
imagined by the promoters OF the treaty.
The damage feature was regarded at
the time il was proposed and accepted by
this government as the weak point TO the
treaty. The authorities here seem TO
have forgotten said the diplomat, "how
completely this government was over
reached In the Canadian fishery award in
which it was mulcted To the tune of
O. 0O0. 900 In gold for absolutely nothing.
Notwithstanding this fact, which the state
authorities could not have overlooked, the
government put itself in position to be
again oytrrenched

IT'S A GREAT NINE.
PaWtucket'S Ball Team
Is All Right.
THE lNVICTlS DEFEATED.
First Appearance Of the Players Makes
aGood Impression.

Pawtucket has a great team. That was
the verdict of everyone who left the Dex /.
ter street grounds yesterday after the In
victis had met defeat by the score of q to 3.
The Invictis proved themselves to be q
team that even professionals had better
not fool with great while. There was Q
crowd Of red and pale blue badge wearers
on the grand stand to cheer the secret
society team on to victory, and those who
were not members of the I. q. D. r. were
men who had come to see what kind Of
material Manager Rowe had secured, and
they left well satisfied.
The Pawtuckets did not arrive here un-
til yesterday noon, and this was the nrst
game Of the season and the first game they
had ever played together.
Quinlan is a star catt her and Glare and
Condor are good twirlers. Third base
man Fern proved his good nature when
he was. numerically guyed from the
bleechers.
All showed up well, but O'Donnell was
a model ball player in the minds OF all.
He is six footer, well built, regular
athlete, and a great hitter. Everybody
was sorry when he broke his nose In the
fifth inning, sliding to third.
The runs were obtained by the Invictis
in this manner In the second Kenny
took his base on balls, went to second on
Mather's. error, third on Msrshall's nit
and home on the put-out OF Biglow,
Marshall being put out on walking on
second under the supposition that he was
forced by Bigelow's out.
In the sixth Stone got first on Connsugh-
toms tumble of his ground hit, went to
second on Gill's out to Condor to
Sweeney, and came home on Kenncy's
single to short left. In the seventh Mar
shall hit one i'm front of the plate and 60
his base, went to second on Clare's error
Bigelow's hit, and then went to third
nd home on a passed ball.
Pawtucket got one In the second on
O'Donnell's two -baser, a passed ball and
Hamill's single; obtained one In the third
on Connaughton's two -baser over the
right field fence, and a cracking single to
centre by Fern. Another was added In the
fourth. Sweeney got one by his ground
hit going through Butterwortb, and Con-
naughton's two bsser. O'Donnell made
one in the fifth on single to centre, a
steal of second and third and passed
ball.
Two were added in the eighth, Clare
putting a single into right field, going to
second on Quinlan's single back OF second
base, going to third on an error OF Clare
and coming home on Swcency's single to
left. Quinlan went to second on the same
error, to third on the same hit and came
home on a wild pitch. Following IL the
scora.
