As stated in the GAZETTE yesterday
t re cholera is in New York city. Five
deaths have occurred from the disease
within ten days. The victims lived in
different parts OF the city, only two of
taem, husband and wife. residing in
the same house, and there is no evil
delcc that there was any communica-
ton between them, or communication
or contact with immigrants or infected
clothing or baggage o! any description.
Unless it can be established that there
was communication with immigrant
sailors on cholera ships or infected
clothing or baggage. the inference
seems plain that the germs Of the dis
ease must have been waited from the
cholera fleet or the quarantine islands
10 the persons VINO died of it. All OF
these cases were originally reported to
The health department Us suspected
cholera aud had been under the inves-
tigation OF the physicians connected
with the department. The physicians
of the health department have been I'M
able to fin out how the cholera was
contracted in each of these cases. So
far they have been unable to learn if
the dead persons came in contact with
the cholera germs. Every precaution
has been taken to prevent the spread
of cholera in these different houses.
Sanitary superintendent Edison says
there is no danger OF the cholera be-
coming epidemic There would be spo-
radiccases, lie said for at least sixty days,
until real cold weather sets in, which
would have the effect of stamping out
the disease. No new cases have oc-
Cured since Tuesday.
Mayor Grant had conferences last
night with President Wilson, of the
health department, and President Por-
ter. of the department OF charities and
corrections. The fact in relation to the
cholera cases had been made public
under the advice of The Mayor, with
the idea that it was best that the pub
lie should be kept fully informed. The
city officials who are dealing with the
questions that arise in the emergency
caused by the danger from cholera took
the view that as servants Of the public
the best service that they could render
was to keep the public informed. The
unsupported danger is always the great
est. The Mayor found that the depart
ment of charities and correction is fully
prepared. Should St. Johns Guild
prove inadequate for the reception,
treatment and insulation Of the cholera
patients. there are FIVE other places
that can be ready within few hours
for that purpose Until the result Of
the meteorological examination was
made public it was considered unwise
TO declare that there had been cholera
cases in the city.
Just before midnight the census of

reconciliation between an erring wife
and forgiving husband. Only three
months ago Frank Howard, young
lawyer and private secretary to Sena-

blonde, Of Martinsburg, and six weeks

tween the couple resulted in the bride
of three months disappearing a few
days ago, and search discovered her in
a house of questionable reputc: from
which she could only be removed by a
writ of habeas corpus. Tuesday she
was in court in tears. the husband for

Mr.. GOODWIN SMITH, who was a
great war republican and Cornell pro
fessor, says the system OF representa-
tive government, based on universal
suffrage, and worked by party ma
chincry, as it necessarily must be, has
already failed to answer the ends for
which government is instituted, and is
rapidly tending from bad 70 worse. ;"
There are many otherpeople, who were
not war men and are not republicans,
who years ago reached the same CON
clusion to which Professor Smith has
lust arrived, or rather, just enunciatcd.
Universal suffrage might doif men were
angels, but as they are human, govern
ment founded upon it, from the very
nature of the case, can only be Of linn
tied duration.

GEN. ARMSTRONG, u northern man,
in charge ofthe negro and Indian school
at Hampton, says: seldom will
thrifty, intelligent negro complain ofin-
ability to vote as he chooses" and
what he says is well known to every in
telligent and unprejudiced observer.
Alexandria is as much opposed TO negro
suffrage as any other city ia the South,
but though the negroes here have been
exercising that privilege ever since the
close oftle war, ifthcrc be one, whether
thrifty and intelligent, OF otherwise, who
ever had cause to complain of inability
to vote as he thought prorer-except
by reason Of the brlldozing of his own
race-he has seduiously kept the
knowledge of it to himself, for it has
never been heard of by any body else.

DEMOCRATIC CONCENTRATIONS
The democratic national committee
has issued the following address.

a
Ia The pcODlc Of ire United States:
The democratic national committee con-
rratl,l2tes the country on the result 0f the
recent State elections in Maine, Vermont and
Arkansas. In Arkansas the combined 0ppo-
sition. after so many cXtTavagaut claims, fell
short by over 10000 OF the vote Of the
democracy alone. This has brought dismay
10 the combination in the South and its
manipulators in the North.
In Maine and Vermont the contest was con-
Quoted distinctly on national issues. The re-
publican managers appealed for votes in these
States on the ground that the size Of the plu-
ralities would exert q great mora! influence
on the campaign in other States" and that
the poll would be practically our vote for
President Similar appeals summoned to
their aid all the potent resources OF their na-
tional organization, with its exhaustlesS treas
ury and its splendid equipment of orators OF
national fame. With every fayoiing force at
their command except public opinion. with no
organization opposed save those made up
within the states by a minority party which
has been ont OF power for generation, and
which was unaided from without, The cari-
paien OF our adversarits for Is triumphant test
vote in these States. so carefully planned and
so thoroughly and forceiuiiy executed, has
ended in conspicuous disaster.
our friends everywhere are entitled to take
fresh courage from these results. They mean
that the strong tendency of public sentiment
is with the democracy. and that the people of
the country are prepared to enforce, rather
than reverse the verdict which they rendered
in 1890.
Signed by william T. Harrity, chairman
democratic committee, and Don u. Dickinson,
chairman campaign committee.

Arguments for and Agains. sunrace

Arguments for and Against Suffrage.
Once year in Massachusetts women
have the opportunity to take part in a
very limited way in the ordering of pub
lie affairs by voting, if they choose to do
SO, for members OF the school committee
in their respective towns or cities Once
year. with equal regularity. the legis-
lature is asked 20 extend this privilege
by giving women the right either to vote
for all elective local or municipal officers
or to take part in general elections with
the same powers as men.
The extent to which the women avail
themselves Of the limited privilege which
they now have is often made the basis of
argument for or against an extension of
the suffrage. while, on the other hand,
the advocates Of full suffrage for women
claim it as right founded on the broad
esr principles OF natural Justice and not
to be impaired by any considerations of
our artificial society. Boston Common

WASHINGTON. April 14.-Several Wall
street politicians have been in Wash ing
ton trying to cultivate the idea am ong
southern and western congressman that
VIM. G.. Whitney is the man to nomi-
nate Tor president. They say that
Whitney has been loyal to Cleveland,
even to the extent OF putting up the
money for the recent Rhode Island cam
paign sum in five figures. Had that
campaign been successful to the Demo-
Gratis the nomination OF Cleveland would
have been accepted as the correct thing
by all elements, these Wall street say.
But II failed. IL showed that there was
Democratic contingent which could
not be placated by Cleveland and all OF
the sinews of war which could be EN-.
ployed. The Wall street men tell the
Rhode Island will happen in New York ii
Cleveland is nominated. The Democratic
vote will not be delivered to Cleveland.
This being so, and Mr.. Cleveland hav-
ing had fair chance to show what he
could do with plenty of financial back
ing in Rhode Island, they claim it is
time to look for another candidate. They
join with their hearers and with every
body else in saying that Hill is entirely
out of the question. They invite con-
sideration OF Mr.. Whitney as the ideal
candidate for the situation. Whitney,
they assert is the residuary legatee to
all OF the Cleveland following. Whitney,
they allege confidently, will be embraced
with ardor by Tammany, which is now
ready to let go Of Hill. And Whitney.
they promise, will command all the po.
litical contributions for which the Dem
ocralic National committee can find use.
This talk by the smooth-tongued Wall
street men is proving very seductive and
is creating quite Whitney boom.

THE KIDNAPPED MINER.
st. Claire, Manager of Mines at Har-

ABDUCTED BY A TRIO OF MINERS
The Would.Be Bandits Get In the
Tolls.
Officers Take Charge of Them All
But Young Johnson Who
Escapes.

The latest sensation is from Harris.
burg.
Sometime since, Hon. Clement c.
Clay, notorious in the sixties as agent
of the late confederate government, al
Montreal, Canada, and at present di.
rector IN the Pacific Bank, San Fran
cisco, member of the well known music
firm Of Sherman, Clay & Co. came
down into Arizona and invested in
mining property in the Harqua Halas
near Harrisburg. After the purchase
was made Clay sent his nephew,
young man "a years OF age,
named st. Claire down to manage the
concern. A mill was opened in full
blast, and run for some time, but tine
proposition failed to be shining sue
cess. Some days ago the mill was
closed down. At the time there was
considerable money due the miners in
the shape Of wages and a clamor was set
up for a settlement. st. Claire claimed
that when the bonanza" was opened,
the miners agreed to work on dizzy
proposition. That is to say, they were
to be paid il the scheme PANIED out.
As il failed to make blooming success,
the enterprising superintendent de-
clined to put up, but, SO it is reported,
agreed to lay the matter before his rich
uncle. Pending an answer, three tur-
bulent spirits named Davis, Burbank
and Robinson-the latter young man
of this city, conceived the brilliant idea
OF authorizing themselves to act as
peace officers, arrest st. Claire, fetch
him to Phoenix, and compel him to tap
the wires Tor the necessary cash. He
was accordingly waited upon and in
duced forcibly to accompany the men
in a blackboard to Phoenix.
After the parties had left others in the
camp begun to feel that an abduction in
broad daylight was blot on the fair es-
cutchon OF the Harqua Halas, and a
posse was organized to overtake the
bold, impudent abductors. They were
overtaken and brought back, all but
Johnson, whe escaped in the chapparei.
Here the tables were turned. Papers
were issued for the arrest of Burbank
and Davis before the local justice at
Harrisburg, and they were legally ar
rested yand turned over to the proper
authorities, who Immediately started
them off to the county seat at Yuma.
Considerable Indignation was ex-
pressed by residents OF that community
at the high-handed proceedings of Bur-
bank, Davis and young Johnson, and
the earnest desire is to see them
"cinched" for their action. More serious
charges than boys play are freely made,
which il substantiated would land the
embroyo bandits behind the bars on
the hill at Yuma.

Went Out Unattended.

Considerable surprise was caused the
other morning in the southern quarters
of Berlin by the presence of the emperor
and two of his little sons in one of the
streets leading to the military drill
ground in the Hasenheide. His majesty
had been DESTROYS of witnessing shooting
practice by the troops of the Berlin gar
rison, and left the palace quite unat-
tended, proceeding ON foot to the drill
ground with bis two boys, each Of whom
he held by the hand.
