NEWSPAPER OPINION.
The nattle in New Yorl..

The Battle I'm New York.
Philadelphia Times
There is great battle on in New York
between President Cleveland and the
Democratic leaders who believe that all
Offices, from United States Senator to
tide-waiter, are mere party plunder, re
gardless Of the public welfare It is an
issue that had to come sooner or later
with Cleveland as President and he has
exhibited the courage to precipitate the
inevitable. The New York letter given
ia to.day's paper from our thoroughly
well-informed and reliable special cor
respondent gives the first fun and clear
insight into the conditions which have
forced the issue between mere machine
leaders and enlightened statesmanship
in the Democratic ranks Of that state
The logic of the situation is made
intelligible to all when the his
tory and methods Of Chairman Mur-
ply are plainly presented and
the President-elect had no choice between
absolute submission and aggressive war.
fare. Whether Mr.. Cleveland shall be
needed in his heroic admonition to his
party in New York, or whether Mr.

the patriotic purpose Of the new Presi

and he will be so greatly strengthened
throughout the country that even tw,
personally hostile Democratic Senators
from New York would be impotent in
their opposition. The declaration of Mr.
Cleveland was not an autoeratic or i'm
pertinent interference in the choice of
senator from his state, but an utteranc
chat was made necessity by bis politi

MAJOR GILLIAN Of the guards and
Eugene vanderbergen Krupps resident
agent, fought duel In a private garden
at Brussels last night Vanderbergen
was shot through the heart and died
instantly. The two men had been on
bad terms for several months in conse-
quence Of their rivalry for the favors Of
notorious woman. The cause of this
duel and its fatal ending Will have the
effect Of making that sort Of settle
ment unpopular among the Ger
mans as the duel is ridiculous
among the French. Even the man who
lives will be Stunned and scorned by
the notorious women sooner or later.
He will be excluded from all decent
society and will live the life Of an ont
cast The duel cannot prosper in the
present state of civilization either as a
fatal encounter or a ridiculous fasco.
