They Were Worth $4,000, and AFRO Miss

PROVIDENCE. r. l., April 2.-The lawyers
engaged in the contest over Mrs, j. b.
Barnaby's will are trying to find 100000
worth of diamonds and $1,000 worth of
dresses which it is supposed she possessed
at the time of her murder. When DR.. r..
Thatcher Graves arrived home a few hours
in advance of Mrs. Bsrlaby's body, he
said that one Of the motives which
prompted hiM to leave for the west when
he heard that his bsnefastress was Ill, and
later when she was dsad, was that she had
in her pc aaesaion when she LETT Monterey.
Cal, for Denver, about 100000 worth of
dia M onds, which he deemed his duty as her
agent to look after. The statement WAS
published, but in the trial of the doctor,
when the government was pushing him to
admit tlat be knsw she had many vnlua-
blss with her in D.nvsr, he declared that
no had no knowledge of them, but had
presumed she might hnve tho diamonds.
Since then there have been various stories
afloat as TO tie Whereabouts OF the jew-

Hickey, the old housskseper, was called
upon BY the lawyers mentioned. and a re-
uusss was made OF her that she deliver up

Of the table of values of 100 Spanish

Following the Herdlds plan Of rely
ing upon the 1888 figures OF the States
classed as doubtful, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Massachusetts,, Michigan, New
York. RHODE ISLAND and Wisconsin all
went Republican in that year. These
States have 1873 electoral votes. Add
these to the 1873 sure Republican votes
that the Herald comedies and we have
266 electoral votes for Harrison enough
to elect him, with 43 to spare. The
Republicans will probably carry Mon
tana and Connecticut, and need not
wholly despair Of West Virginia.
These three States have 10
votes, and would make Harrison's
electoral majority 5s. Claiming only
Connecticut and Montana Harrison MAY
hope to get 275 Of the 444 electoral
votes, according to the Herald's system
of classifying the States upon the basis
of the vote of 1888, and only claiming
beyond that Connecticut and Montana.
We are neither prophet nor the son
of a prophet, but we should not be sur
prised if this should prove to be very
correct estimate of the result Of the
November election-215 electoral votes
for Harrison and 169 for Cleveland.
The political prophet who uses the
Congressional vote of 1890 as a basis for
predictions of the result of the Pfesi.
Dental vote of 1892 makes very Sc
rious mistake, in our humble opinion.

THE TENDENCY OF BRAINS.

4 Ah1 ~ bRhA%$os
A very marked and significant fea-
ture of the campaign is the tendency of
men of brains and experience to desert
the Democratic party and give in their
adherence to the party that promises to
protect American industries and Ameri-
can labor.
The latest example of this drift away
from free-trade is the desertion of Mr..
George Ticknor Curtis, whose letter
was published in the NEWS on Thurs
day. Mr.. Curtis is student of politics,
though not an active politician. He is
also student of affairs, and his practi-
cal knowledge operates to correct the
theoretical economic teachings of the
free-traders. While he has been a
strong and influential Democrat, he
finds that his regard for the welfare of
the country will not permit him to
follow the blind counsels of the party,
as exemplified by the free-trade plank
in the Chicago platform.
Mr.. Curtis is not the only prominent
Democrat who finds himself unable to
continue with the party in its calamity
policy. The News has published numer-
Gus reports of such defections from the
Democratic party, and they have all
been Democrats Of long standing and
men Of business Importance. 1t is not
necessary to recapitulate the names of
these men.
The instances Of desertion have been
so frequent that the public has become
possessed of the idea that there is
steady and significant drift of men with
brains to the Republican party.
There is no question but this evident
tendency will make an appreciable differ
ence in the total vote for Mr.. Harrison
in November, but though that is very
pleasant anticipation 1t is not, after all,
the chief cause for rejoicing. The in
dication that these Of the American
people who have gone off after the false
god of free trade are beginning to re-
turn to sanity and patriotism Is ex-
tremely welcome. .is
The country is vastly greater than
parties or political policies, and its con-
tinued welfare is overpoweringly su-
perior to the petty needs Of political
supremacy. Men who return to the
support Of the policy of protection do
very much more than strengthen the
Republican party they re-endow them
selves with full American citizenship,
and they take on again all the rights and
obligations of intelligent patriotism.
The Republican party gains by their re-
turn to its fundamental doctrine of pro-
lection, but the whole country gains
more; even the Democratic party, for it
could not exist if the Republican party
were to be thrown out of power and the
country given practical test of the
working of free trade.
Thus there is deeper and broader
meaning to be attached to such political
moves as the desertion from the Demo-
cratic party by men of the stamp of
George Ticknor Curtis. The fact of their
return to sanity will doubtless encour-
age a great many voters to support the
Republican ticket this year, and thus it
will inure to the advantage of the Re-
publican party in partisan and politi-

A MISLEADING headline in one of the
morning papers makes it appear that a
death from cholera has occurred in
Brooklyn. This is not, so far as known,
the case. Cholera is not known to be in

A LOOK at the map of New York. and
the locating thereon the habitat of the
cholera cases already reported, is pretty
good assurance that the metropolis has
cause for uneasiness.
