An address was delivered by
Hon. L. Irving Handy, of Della
ware, at Eastville, last Monday,
which would compare favorably
with the best efforts of any of the
numerous speakers throughout
the country who are enhghten-
ing the people from the hustings
on the political issues of the day.
The tariff. force bill and va
carries of Third partyism, each
were handled by HIM in a mas
terly manner, with Illustrations
so apt and arguments so con-
vincing, that everyone of the
large audience in attendance
followed him with rapt atten-
ton from the beginning to the
close, and heartily joined i'll the
vote of thanks which was pro-
posed for him. No one who
heard him will ever doubt here
after that the tariff is a tax and
that the poor men are paying it
for the benefit of the rich and
will continue to do SO until the
evils of the present tariff bill are
corrected by a Democratic ad-
ministration-or can ever forget
the iniouities of the Force Bill
as presented by him. His allu-
sions to Third partyism were
particularly happy and the
claims of the leaders thereof
were presented in so ludi-
crous an aspect, that Capt.
Browne would not be able to
convince his hearers that he is
n earnest in expecting their
votes, if he possessed the elo-
querce of a Demosthenes.

How Protection Rcbs Us.

The fifty eight members OF
the American window-glass
trust were protected in 1860 by
a duty of Is per cent; in 1861 it
was raised to 80 per cent; in
1884 to 100 per cent; in 1890 to
1872 per cent.
The price per half box of
1Sx24 in this country was In
1860, So 80; in 1890, 1913.
The price abroad per 100
pounds of 1Gx24 to 34x30 was in
1857, $3.50; in 1890, $3.50.
We imported in 1890 of this
size 10, Os7, O57 pounds, for which
we paid in our labor products
the foreign cost, S343, $40, and
Mckinley fine duty, 1852 6u5;
so that, while the cost abroad
per 100 pounds was S1.S0, it
should be here $4.1S.
In 1880 the total wages paid
here for making $3.50 worth
was rs cents, and the manu-
facturerreceived to pay the diff
ference 10 wages $2.3S, leaving
him S1.55 net profit for using
pauper labor supported by a tax
on the public.
Every Virginia farmer who
has to buy a pane of window
glass is robbed by this protec-
tive system, and the proceeds
of that robbery go not to the
workingmen, but to the trust.
The Democratic party is fight
ing this system. The Peoples
party ignores it.-State.

1t was officially announced in
New York, Wednesday, that
five deaths had occur ed from
cholera in that city from Sep
TENDER 9th to September, 18th,
and that no new cases had oc-
Cured since. The statement
may be correct, but business
interests have so often prompt
ell the city authorities to keep
silent during epidemics, that it
may possibly be accepted with
a "grain Of allowance" in this
instance.

PRECAUTIONS IN TIME
Being Taken by the Treasury De-
partment Against Cholera.
A CORPS OF GOOD PHYSICIANS
Sent Abroad to Learn all They Can About
the Great Death.
A STRICT INCOGNITO TO BE KEPT Up

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.l
BOSTON, Dec. LA corps of physicians
is to be sent by the United States Marine
Hospital service, acting in conjunction with
the Treasury Department. to inaugurate
protective measures against cholera in
Europe. Three doctors have been COM
missioned; DIR. Fairfax Irwin, formerly
surgeon at the Marine Hospital, Chelsea,
and latterly examining surgeon at the
Marine Hospital service dispensary in the
Boston Custom House; DR.. Rosenow and
DR.. VIM. A. Wheeler, of New York.
DR.. Rosenow has been abroad for several
weeks and Drs. Irwin and Wheeler intend
to sail from New York tomorrow Their
instructions from the Department are pri-
vate, but the general purpose of their expe-
dition is known. They will remain in
Europe for two months. DR.. Rosenow is in
England, and his territory will be the
British ports. DR.. Irwin will have charge
of France. and DR.. Wheeler will go to Ger
many and the free ports.
Their duties are to investigate thoroughly
the causes of the spread of the cholera the
sanitary conditions of the various towns
and cities which they visit, and particu-
ldI1y uOLe the ACCOMMODATIONS mau6 IOr
emigrants destined for the United States
and the precautions adopted for their dis
infection and isolation. They will be in
close consultation with the American Con-
suls, who are instructed to cooperate with
the surgeons IN every possible way.
The doctors are empowered to examine
cargoes of vessels consigned to the United
States, and demand the disinfection of both
vessels and freight where they deem it
necessary. They will have no authority to
order such course, but upon their recon-
in quarantine, in American ports, will
largely depend They will maintain as
complete an incognito as possible. Their
duty is too ascertain the leaks where the
cholera has penetrated, to observe the fail
ures and successes OF the cholera war, and
to keep the department at home constantly
advised of their findings

OLD BOOKS MADE TO ORDER.

Wholesale Literary Frauds Being Perpe-
trated in Classic Edinburgh.
LONDON, Dec. 1-Quite a sensation has
been created in the literary world by the
discovery in Edinburgh of system Of
wholesale forgery of literary and historic
documents The discovery was due to the
publication of an alleged manuscript poem
by Burns This poem was found to be re-
print from fugitive magazine of poetry
that appeared when Burns was only years
old. A number of antiquarian book sellers
of the highest repute have unconsciously
circulated the forgeries, which include q
parchment copy of ''The Solemn League
and Covenant" which, if genuine, would
be of great value.
Letters purporting to have been written
by Burns Scott, Cromwell, Carlyle and
Mary Queen of Scots, have been manu-
factured. There is reason to suspect that
the collection of manuscripts of Burns,
presented in 1890 to the city of Edinburgh
BY Mr.. Kennedy, the New York banker,
are not genuine.

Yesterdays Debate Throws but Little Light
ON the Army Bilrs Fate.
BERLIN, Dec. 1.-Dufing the debate on
the budget to-day DR.. Buhl, leader of the
National Liberals. said his party would
vote for the demands made by the Govern
msnt for money to military purposes so far
as was compatible with the vital interests
of the empire, but the carrying out OF the
provisions of the army bill to their full ex-
tent is impracticable. DR.. Buhl COM
planned of the inadequate share Germany
had taken in the celebrations in honor Of
the four hundredth anniversary OF the dis
covery of America.
Chancellor Won Caprivi said Germany
had been worthily represented at the Co
lumbus fetes at Genoa and the celebrations
in Spain. Herr Leibknecht, the Socialist
leader, declared that the anti-Semitie move
ment, which found many sdherents in Ger
many, promoted the cause of social de-
mocracy. He urged that militia system
should be established In Germany, and that
political morality be improved. DR.. Won
Frege said the Conservatives would not de-
fine their attitude toward the army bill
until the measure came up for debate. He
would say, however. that he considered the
demands made for the navy to be too high.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. L-[SpeciaL BY q
unanimous vote of its stockholders, the
Central Distilling Company, of st. Louis,
was sold for $40. 900 to-day to Samuel Wool
ner, who is organizing the Antitrust
Distillery Company" The deeds of sale,
etc, were made out this afternoon. The
terms OF sale at the figure stated were prac-
tically cash, the greater portion of the pur-
chase price to be paid spot cash and the re-
mainder in notes not exceeding four months
time. Every stockholder of the Central
Distilling Company was present at to-day's
meeting.
The announced object Of the purchase of
the Central Distilling Company is that of
effecting an antitrust organization strong
enough to fight the great whisky trust,
whose headquarters are in Chicago and
whose capital is estimated at S36, 900, 900 Mr..
Woolner stated at the meeting this morning
that he had secured a controlling interest in
the Nebraska Distillery, of Nebraska City;
two distilleries in Pekin, Ill, the Star and
Crescent, the Belleville and the Cass ave-
nue. distilleries. This, it is claimed, will
give him at least producing capacity of
the whisky trust itself, and place him on a
good fighting basis.

States of America.
"I rise to q point of information, D.
Robinson said. "Is Mr. Briggs In the hsr-
ness?" The defendant replied he is.
The Moderator ruled that Dr. Briggs
must plead to the charges at once.
ST am not guilty" answered Dr. Briggs
The Prosecuting Committee then pro-
posed that some limit be fixed to the trial,
but tine suggestion was bitterly opposed and
dropped. Colonel McCook then formally
opened the case against Dr. Briggs He
offered in evidence the book cited above,
and submitted copies of the same. In re-
gard to the reading, Colonel McOook said
that as there is no provision in the book to
the contrary, Dr. Briggs might demand the
reading of the evidence at the proper time.

neat pitfall for Colonel McCook and the
latter tumbled in.
Fun at the Prosecutions Expense.
s'You offer in evidence the Holy Script
ures," he said, "but to which version DO
you refer?"

swered Mr.. McCook.
"Then your evidence is unlawful, for the
Presbyterian standard of authority is not
the translation of King james, but the or
iginal version" +" retorted the doctor
A litter followed this sally, which DR..
Robinson only augmented by exclsiming
Indignantly: 1--WE are making ourselves
the laughing stock of the galleries"
Colonel McCook yielded to DR.. Briggs
any advantage which might accrue to him
in consequence of discrepancies between the
two versions The leader of the prosecution
then announced that, its evidence having
been submitted, DR.. Briggs should be called
upon to submit his But to this the defend
ant strenuously protested, and Moderator
Bliss ruled that the prosecution should 20
on. Colonel McCook showed by citations
from the Book of Discipline that the Mod
orator was in error, and the decision was re-
versed. DR.. Briggs had an exception re-
corded

McCook declared, "haye no desire to take

AS LIVELY AS EXPECTED.

The Randall Club Election Marked by
Rushes, scuffies and Charges Of Unfair
ness-A Heavy Vote Polled and George
Fleming Probably Elected President.
The election of officers in the Randall
Democratic Club was fully as Interesting as
it was expected to be. The contendlng
factions were out in force and every man of
them worked as if his life depended on his
efforts. Early in the afternoon there was q
large attendance, the snti-syndicate party
being in the majority. The first event of
the day was the arrival of Thomas Mar
shall, Jr., who at the request of the syn
dicate had prepared legal opinion on the
right of o candidate for Office acting as a
member of the election board The opinion
was in the negative, but Recording Secre-
tary McCrickart, at whom it was directed,
paid no attention to it Promptly at 4
o'clock he opened the polls in q second
floor room and as Judge began the cleo
tion. Colonel Frank Rutledge and Thomas
j. Wallace were the tellerS.
The votes poured in thick and fast, most
ly anti-syndicate votes by proxy tor the
first hour Mr.. McCrickart had secured the
proxies of many members who could not be
present, and voted them all for s. A Dun
can and other anti-syndicate candidates.
Later In the day the syndicate votes and
proxies came in. Around the polling place
there stood several friends of the candi-
dates, and when a vote was challenged for
non-payment of dues or stock, the money
was promptly produced and the vote
counted. Many a delinquent had his dues
squared in this way.
When 8 o'clock came about 800 votes had
been cast. Secretary McCr1ckart ordered
the polls closed and attempted to close the
door as we'll A scrap followed, and for a
time it looked as If there would be free
fight The syndicate friends succeeded in
preventing the door from being closed, but
McCriekart would aot allow the vote
counted. Finally a compromise was sug-
gested-Presidental candidates Duncan and
Fleming to 60 in, close the door and watch
the count They went in, but the count
didn't 90 on, and they finally walked out
Another rush and o scuf1e followed when
door. 1t is said several blows were struck
in the melee, but the McCrickart party
amid much complaint gained their point,
closed the door and began with the count
The syndicate party is much dissatisfied
and claims the opposition resorted to illegal
practices in the election, and will go to
court If George Fleming is not declared
elected by the board. At 1 o'clock this
morning the count was still going on, but a
member OF the board said Fleming was
showing the most votes and would probably
be elected
