Wall Street Movements.

EDITOR ADvOoATE:-In the st. Louis
Globe Democrat Of December 5, under
the heading "Wsll Street Movements"
can be found the following:
New YORK, December 4, 1S93.-There was
nothing this morning Of the 6rmness with
which the stock market closed on Saturday.
The publication of the presidents message
in London in advance Of its delivery 10
congress, gave the street knowledge Of its
contents through the medium OF the cable,
and the fact that il made no m entlon Of q
contemplated bond issue was regarded as q
bear point, and helped to deDreciate values.
The above important communication
was ssnt the st. Louis Globe Dem ocrat
by it's financial correspondent in New
York, and found it's way into the col
umns Of that paper, (perhsps unnoticed(,
as there was no mention Of it in the edi.
torial columns. 1t seems to me, Mr..
Editor, that such important news should
be herslded in bold type, from one part
Of the continent to the other. While the
American people were calmly waiting
for their chief executives communi-
cation, some careless clerk Tor otherwise)
had wired it to London, and from there
it was csbled to every nation upon the
globe where Great Britain had finan-
cisl interest.
The gsmblers ia stock on Wall street
had carefully studied it's entire text fully
fourteen hours before the peoples repre-
ssntstives in the senate and house had
received the message.
The fact Of the document being pub
lished in the London papers and cabled
to sll parts of the world, would not be 80
alarming If the press (the educational
power) OF the country had not treated
the m after with such indifference.
cannot refrain quoting a part Of
Washington's farewell address. Speak
ing Of foreign influence, he said:
As avenues to foreign influence in innum-
erable ways, such attachments are partiou-
larly alarming to the truly enlightened and
independent patriot. How many oppor-
tunities do they afford to tsmper with do
mestic factions; TO practice the arts Of
ssdition; to mislesd public opinion, to in
fluenoe or awe the public council.
Against the insiduous wileS Of foreign in
fluence Il oonjure you 10 believe me, fellow
otizsns) the jealousy of q free people ought
TO be constantly awake; since history aud
experience prove that foreign influence is
one Of the most baneful foes Of republican
government. Why quit your own
to stand upon foreign ground? Why By in
terweaving our destiny with any part Of Eu-
rope, entangle our peace and prosperity in
the tolls Of European ambition, rivalship,
interest, humor or caprice. Il 10 our true
policy 10 steer clear ofpeEmRnent alliances

Now comes the American Fedora
ton of labor of Cinclnnsti in conven-
tion assembled, with ninety different
labor organizations represented, and
with deliberation, and, as it were,
with malice sforethought, unsni-
mously adopts a resolution Congrstu-
lating Governor Lewelling upon the
humane spirit which prompted the
issue Of his recent circular to police
commissioners. With labor organi-
cations and humsnitsrisns every
where endorsing this circular, what
is this country coming to anyhow?

ABOUT KANSAS.

Laurence Gronlund, the famous So
cislist writer, has been in Topeka the
past ten days. Monday night he lee
tured at Representative hall on his favor
ito topic, socialism.
The Sixth district seems to be running
over with republican candidates for con-
gress. They seem to think that to be
able to keep out OF jail is the only neces-
sary qualification for congressman.
The good people Of Concordis are di
vided as to the best way Of serving the
Lord. Some are plotting against the
joints while others are devising ways
and means to keep the poor from stsrV-
ing this winter.
Mrs. Johns declares, so reports say,
that five democratic papers in the state,
and hundreds OF Populist and republi-
can papers, will support the woman's
suffrage proposition. Part Of that as
sertion may prove to be true, but Mrs.
Johns will have to furnish some eVi.
dence to support the democratic part
OF it.
Ottawa, Franklin county, is not a
metropolitan police city, but the perse-
cution Of trsmps at that place has been
sat upon by decision of Probate Judge
Case: Fifteen men we're taken in and
fined for vsgrancy. To test the law the
case Of one was taken before Judge Case
on a writ Of habeaS corpus, and all of
them were released. The test was made
at the instigstion of W. H. Costigan and
Representative Semple.
The series Of silver meetings held by
Albert Griffin in Rspresentivs hall last
week were not we'll attended. The fact
is Topeka republicans are ashamed to
hear one Of their number champion their
last national platform, which majority
Of their representatives in congress have
disrsgsrded. And the Populists-w we'll,
the Pops just stay away to leave room
for republicans, When republican talks
their doctrine.
G. E Lsthrop, a grain buyer Of Atch-
ison, has q case against the Burlington
& Missouri railroad, before the board Of
railroad commissioners, to prevent the
company from charging him eEtortion-
ate rates for the use OF cars over their
lines in the state. 1t is claimed that the
high charges are made in order to force
the shipment of grain over their line to
Chicago, instead Of by other routes east
from AtchisoD, as Mr.. Lsthrop has been
shipping.

TOPEKA POLICE COMMISSIONERS.
They viii Garry Out the Recommends
tions Of the Governor.

Of the city or Topeka mas aoopted tne
following resolution, which it affords
us great pleasure TO be able to pre-
sent to the public:
WHEREAS, Governor Lewelling on the 4th
day of December issued an executive oircu-
lar TO the boards Of police commissioners Of
Kansas urging them to be lenient with the
unemployed and unfortunate, and to desist
from further arrest Of men as "vsgrants"
because of enforced idleness, and also urg-
ing the abolition Of the crook pile" and
''bull pen" as a means Of punishment for
the crime of being poor; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we heartily concur with
the governor in his efforts to alleviate the
condition of the poor and unfortunate, and
that we herewith instruct the chief Of pO.
lice and the officers under him to permit
the unemployed entire freedom in going
and coming, and to assist them as much as
possible in their unfortunate condition.
Resolved, That the rock pile and bull pen,
relics of the past, be immediately sbol-
ished, and that the acting mayor and coun-
oil be informed of this fact; and
Resolved, further, That nothing in the
foregoing resolutions shall be construed to
apply TO men who have committed crimes;
but while doing all that humanity dictates
in aid of the needy unemployed, we expect
to prevent and suppress violations Of law,
and give TO the Olty, in the future, as in
the past, the best of protection to life and
property.
The commissioners have also un-
dertsken other reforms of which it is
not now necessary to speak, but
which will commend themselves by
their results to all humane people in
and out of the city. These things are
right. They are in accord, not only
with the dictates Of humanity, but
with the professions of the Peoples
party.
While speaking Of these things, it
may not be amiss to refer to the lsud-
able activity of the State Journal in
bringing the bsrbsrities that are now
abolished to the attention Of the pub
lic. It is true that the "bull pen"
and the rock pile were established by
our republican predecessors and were
an inheritance of this administration.
1t is true that 1t ls only for partisan
ends that the Journal has been 30
urgent recently for the abolition of
these abuses; but we are con-
strained to forgive the motive be-
cause of the righteousness of the act,
and only regret that the same par
tisan spirit that has led to the recent
exposure and cond 9mnation of these
brutalities led the journal to be silent
concerning them during all the years
that they were practlced under re-
publican administration.
The Peoples party stands for re-
form and the people expect their off,
cials to correct the abuses that have
been established by republican sd-
ministrstions. Let the good work
go on and extend to other depart
ments. There are still other wrongs
to be righted, and the official who
fails in the performance of his duty
in this respect may as we'll stand

CONSUL sMYTHE.

Though Mr.. H. Nj. Smythe, of
Tazewell, was- not appointed consul
to Hong Kong, which place it was
thought the Administration desired
him to fill, he was named last week
as consul to Fucllau or Foo-Chow.
The fixed salary is $4,000 a year, not
80 much at that nj Hong Kong, but
the fees in addition and the general
situation of things, makes this place
more desirable than the other. says
MIR. Quincy. The city is large
one, having ~ population of more
than half million. 1t is an import
ant post and one to which the ap.
pointment was mnde after much care
i'll selection. 1t has been understood
in Washington, ever since Mr..
Smythe's interview with Mr.. Cleve.
land and MIR. Quincy, that he would
certainly be nude consul to some im.
portant point when man of his
qualifications was most needed. Mr..
Smythe's neighbors, who know him
best, are ready to believe that he will
serve the government to its satisfac
ton.

COWS MIXED BY FISH.

New HOPE, PA.-The discovery
that German carp drinks milk has
averted what threatened to be whole
sale suits for theft. Michael Tiernnn,
for several months, or ever since the
weather grew warm, has noticed that
his blooded COWS return from their
lnxuriant pastures with full stom
achs and empty udders. There was
a suspicion that the COWS had been
MIXED by families who reside in the
neighborhood This thing continued,
and Mr.. Tiernan's dairy product
reached zero. He watched his COWS,
but could not discover the Elk rob.
bers.
Yesterday he had startling revel-
alton. He was standing by the mill
race which runs through his farm; he
saw his favorite COW enjoying herself
in the water which touched her body.
After prolonged bath the bovine
emerged from the stream. Chnging
to the animals udder was a carp that
weighed about fifteen pounds. 1t
had drank every ounce of the cows
milk. Mr.. Tiernan says that the
COWS have regularly gone to the mill
race to keep cool, and the fish have
as diligently extracted their milk.

French capital. Mr.. Phillipoteaux
has made striking success, where or,
dinary scenic painters have failed. 1t
is his idea to complete tho pictorial
illusion, by placing the spectator in
tho middle of the scene, and com.
pletely surrounding him with u
broad circumference of earth and
sky. The whole battlefield of Get.
tysburg is reproduced with strictnst
Typographical accuracy. aud the de.
tails of tho great fight are represent
ed with II realism that seem marvel
ous The foreground is actually
built out with real fences. earth.
trees, guns. etc, which are so skill
fully led up to and joined with tho
painted canvas that it is almost i'm
possible to discover where reality
ends aud illusion begins. A descript.
i've lecture is given by veteran of
the war. The enthusiasm of the old
soldier "and there arc thousands of
them" who gaze upon this panorama,
is unbounded.
