LONDON. Nov. 1.-The result of the
Presidential election has for once disturbed
the lofty indifference with which London
is accustomed TO regard the movements OF
the domestic policy Of America. Inc eX-
planation of the course is found in the bear
ing of the result upon the free trade
question. Cleyeland's election Is unanl-
mOusIy regarded as a heavy OIoW 10 pro-
lection. Some Of the papers are already
forecssting the time when free trade shall
prevail throughout the United States,
and tie News authoritatiyely informs its
readers that the new Congress will have
/, over 100 Democratic majority in the Lower
House and a small maj rity in the Senate.
TIE Democrats, it is added, viii, after
March j. be in complete possession Of the
Government for the first time since the re-
bellion. That Cleveland will formulate and
execute a policy reforming the tariff on
anti-protecton lines is everywhere taken
for granted.
Cabinet councils were resumed through
tie week, and there is a general under
standing that the Ministers have now got
firm grip on their work for the next session.
Various small committees are shaping bills,
not only dealing with home rule. but
notably one touching upon the reform of
the registration and cognate. electoral pro-
cedure that shall satisfy the demands of an
influential section Of the party who. while
loyal TO home rule, are not in
clned wholly to give up to Ireland the
parliamentary session which they contend
was meant for mankind. damaging to them,
and they would be delighted to close access
TO the public ear. Hence the daily attacks
on the Judge with intent to goad him TO
evict reporters, but Mathews has avoided
the trap. Meanwhile the landlords have
induced Murphy, their representative on
the comm issi0n, to resign, while the execu-
tive committee of the Irish landlords con-
ventOn have recommended the landlords to
boycott the commission. This is all very
we'll, but the practical result will be to
shorten the proceedings before the commits
sion and to hasten the action of Parliament
in dealing with the case.
The Landlord party is determined to
wreck the Evicted Tenants Commission
Day by day their organs in the press pour
cOntumely and scorn on the commission,
and more especially on the learned Judge
who presides. There is in this a scarcely
disguised design. On taking his seat 10 the
Commission Court Justice Mathews an
nonGced that the press would be admitted
: only as long as ordinary practice in relation
! to legal proceedings were observed, and the
newspapers refraiued from discussing the
inquiry while it was pending. II this rule
were broken the doors would. he plainly
intimated, be closed against the press.
That was just what the landlords desired to
see done. The publicity OF the circum-
stances under which the eYictions on the
Clanrlcard and other estates were brought
about would be serious.

ALL FOUR ACQUITTED.
The Defendants in the Benson Case
Are EXOnerafed.

Are Exonerated.
The Benson conspiracy trial, which has
been dragging its weary length along for
several weeks In the United States Circuit
Court, came to a conclusion yesterday.
District Attorney Garter had occupied
two and one-half hours the previous day
with his argument for the prosecution,
while Messrs. Van Duser and Campbell re-
piled for the defense.
Yesterday the latter concluded his argu-
ment and Mr. Stratton closed for the Gov
ernment. The jury was then charged and
withdrew.
The original case made J ohm a. Benson,
John ID. Hall, George II. Perrin. j Ohm Nc
Nee and I. T. Tidball defendants in an
action brought by the United States, charg-
ing them with co1spiring TO obain large
sums OF money by abusing their trust in
public surveying. The facts are generally
familiar to the public. Tne fifth defendant.
I. L. Tidball, the notary, was discharged
at an early stage of the proceedings.
1t had been generally conceded that the
prosecution failed TO make out a case OF
conspiracy against the defendants so that
1t was no surprise when the jury returned
in about an hour with verdict of acquittal.
1t was understood that on the first ballot
the jury stood ten for acquittal against two
for conviction; on the second, eleven for
acauittal and one for conviction and on the
third that the vote for acquittal was unani-
nous.
According to recent dispatches from Wash
iDgtOn this Is only the beginning of series
OF prosecutions to be Instituted On account
of land frauds, which, it is stated, have
been discovered to have long existed on

while working at an are light. he had at
tended the big celebration, and was on his
way home with his wife and two children.
While passing the electric works he noticed
that light across the street needed atten-
ton. Leaving his family at the power
house he went TO the pole, and without the
usual precaution to stand on a non-con-
ductOr he attached the crank while standing
on the earth, and instantly fell doubled up
and almost dead.
Two psssers-by saw him fall and went to
his assistance. Life was almost extinct,
and lie died after taking only few breaths.
The remains we're carried over to the power
house, where his wife and children were
waiting. When the body was examined at
the mans home no mark was found on il,
nor was there any sign Of burning. Some
Of the electricians at the works thought
Bartold was not killed by electricity, be-
carse no burns were seen. 1t was BartOld's
practice TO stand on wood when working at
a lamp, and tonight he neglected TO take
this precaution. 1t is said that he has done
the same thing many times without injury,
but the orders of the company are that
employees must stand on a wooden platform.

LONDON IN DARKNESS.
Dense FOgs Cause Great inconvenience
in That City.

III ihdl Sily.
LANDoN, Nov. 12-Dense fogs have been
preva dent in London for a week At noon
to-daE a the atmosphere became thicker than
ever, aSpd the bla aekness Of midnight set In.
Gas anG electric lights are in use every
where, bust IN the streets their rays are
unable to penetrate the dense mass Of yapor.
The fog peDetraEes the most densely closed
houses everywhere aud causes feeling of
discomfort.
On the str eet pedestrians stumbled along,
often unwarily getting bad falls by missing
their footing in this almost Cimmerian
darkness. The usual roar Of traffic is greatly
diminished. for many careful draymen and
others refused to allow their horses 10 be
used fearing an accident. Traffic is carried
on under great difficulties. II is only by the
exercise Of the greatest care that accidents
are not more numerous. though some serious
casualties are repo ited, mostly run-overs.
The laYless element took advantage of
the occasion and everywhere were active. 1t
is utterly Impossible for the police to recog-
nize them, and the dense fog rendered
robbery an easy task, and in spite of the
TTecauiions of shOpkeepers, who have
learned much by experience in foggy
weather, sneakthieves have managed TO
make many successful hauls. Several cases
of highway robbery are reported. In every
case the thieves escaped under cover OF the
mantle of fog. 1t is feared that many fatal
tiles will occur at the docks, which are verit-
able death traps in such weather
