Trouble In the Cabinet.

A curious thing about this silver fiQht
has been the trouble it has caused In the
presidents cabinet. Quite a nice little row
Ii reported between Secretary Carlisle and
Secretary Lamont. 1t grows out Of the sill
yer contest. Lamont is a great friend of
Senator Germans and has been inclined
TO take Germans part. Believing in Cor
mans a~stuteness and loyalty. he some time
ago reached the conclusion that a compro-
mise would be absolutely necessary. But
when he proposed it in cabinet meeting
and mentioned German as his authority,
Mr.. Carlisle was very angry. He declared
he would have nothing to do with any COM
promise which Mr. German favored. He
did not believe much in Mr.. German any,
way. To all this Lamont replied with
some spirit, and President Cleveland had
to step in to preserve thu peace.

Trouble With One Rule.

Where the repeal managers are having a
great deal of trouble is with that rule
which says a motion to amend shall always
be in order. Under this the silver men
may offer amendments to their hearts
content. They may make these amend
ments as long as the moral law and they will
have TO be read. True. they cannot be dis
cussed, but the simple offering of them will
consume a great deal Of time. Besides.
there are seven or eight other motions
which the rule prescribes to be in order,
such as to go into executive session, to ad
journ, to postpone indefinitely, to take a
recess, etc. some of these are debatable.
and some are not. But the great point.
from the antirepealers' side of the case, Is
that the motions may be made with the
sanction OF the rules. On nearly all Of
them a roll call may be had, for the silver
men are easily able to keep enough men on
hand to demand the yeas and nays.
A roll call In the senate does not take
t~hree-quarters Of an hour, as Il does In the
house, but 1t requires about Is minutes,
and some Of these long night sessions Are
pretty sure to be taken UP with an endless
procession Of roll calls. The silver senator's
say that between the inability of the otter
side 20 keep a quorum constantly ON hand.
the offering Of new amendments, the max.
ing OF motions for purposes Of delay, de-
mands for a roll call and other time con-
Stunning tactics, they will be able to weather
the storm which the repeal are
now brewing for them.

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1893-06-21

THE returns from the German elec- tions held last Friday indicate that the government has been worsted and that a majority of the members of the new reichstag will be opposed to the army bill. This being the case the old provi- sions for the army will have to answer all the purposes of the emperor. To be sure this bumptious young man made threats of getting an increase in the army no matter what the country de- cided, immediately after the dissolution of the last reichstag, but he has since taken pains to qualify his remarks and to give out in his official organs the statement that he V. ill do nothing in contravention of the constitution of the empire. It is a very wise conclusion to which William II has come. His throne might totter if he tried to usurp power or abridge the liberty of the German people.

A Rich Strike.

Gold would not be the standard of value for the world if 1t did not cost about dollar in work and machinery to obtain a dollars worth of gold. Oc- casionally, however, one or two men become immensely rich through fnd- ing pocket or a vein where the ore is unusually rich, and the metal may be extracted at comparatively small ex- pense. Such a vein is reported to have been found few days ago in the Grand Summit mine on Palmer noun tains in Washington. At depth of two hundred feet mass of ore was found which Is so rich that seven pound piece when 1t was assayed yielded two pounds of pure gold. At that rate a ton of ore would be worth one hundred and seventy-fve thousand dollars, and as there seems to be a great deal of the ore, the owners of the mine naturally believe that they are about to become exceedingly rich. So valuable has the mine become, in fact, says one report, that 8 guard armed with Winchester rifles has been stationed all about it, and persons seen approaching are warned to keep at distance or they will be shot.

MRS. BALDwINs CASE SETTLED

Alleged That She Had No Grounds for Complaint Against the Central Railroad.
 NEW YORK, June 21.-The suit of Mrs. Mary Elizabeth G. Baldwin, the wife of Homer R. Baldwin, against the New York Central & Hudson River railroad company, which was brought to recover $250. QUO damages for injuries sustained by her at the Hastings disaster in 1891, has been settled.
 The cas. was on the calendar yesterday before Justice Barrett in the Supreme court and was called for trial. Joseph H. Choate and A. R. Darlington were in court in the interests of Mrs. Baldwin and Austin G. Fox represented the rail road company.
 Whep the case was called MT. Fox an- nounced that it had been settled and it was so marked on the calendar by Justice Barrett It was alleged on the part of the company in this suit that Mrs Baldwin was riding ou the train on a pass issued in the name of another person, and that therefore she was a tresspasser, and the company was not liable for damages.
 The basis of the settlement could not be ascertained.

THE prompt acquittal of Lizzie Borden was no surprise; it was only what was expected. The prosecution proved absolutely nothing, except that the accused was in the house on the day the murders were committed and there fore might have been the assassin. On this theory the laundering police bent their whole energies. It was a case where every effort was made to compel the accused to prove herself innocent, rather than for the state to produce evi- dence showing her guilt. The mys' tery surrounding the death of the Bor- dens has not been explained, and the Fall River police by harping on one string have apparently allowed the guilty one to escape.

THE problem of the surplus female population in England is serious one. and the steady diminution of mar riage, in addition to the tendency of Englishmen to seek wives among the daughters of the Philistines, is bur den grievous to be borne by the fa- thers and mothers of large families of girls. It was proposed in London women's periodical few years ago that an association should be formed to induce widows to refrain from mar rying a second time as matter ot justice to their own sex. It was broad ly hinted that royalty had purposely set an example. Reference was not made to the queen, except as an in stance of undying loyalty to the mem ory of her husband, but to the young duchess of Albany, who might reason. ably be expected to have taken unto herself "another mate."

How readily we accommodate our: selves to circumstances, is evidenced by the general acceptance of electrocution as the most humane and least barbarous method of executing murderers. Less than two years ago, when New York in- augurated the system, there was an almost universal outcry against it. To- day it is recognized as the proper method of carrying into effect the death penalty. Adverse criticism has been completely disarmed by the quiet, effective and instantaneous manner in which electricity performs it's legal deadly work. We should have this system introduced into Connecticut and into all the states, if capital punish ment is not to be abolished. Hanging is a relic of barbarism. It has had it's day, and too long a day. Electrocu- ton should supersede it, and the suc- cess of that method in New York has largely prepared the public mind for it's adoption everywhere.

LOWLANDER'S VICTORY
It Was a Great Surprise to the
 Public.

Race Track Owners Success in Keeping
 the Telegraph Wires GrOunded-Win-
 ners in Previous Suburbans.
 NEW YORK, June 21.-It was a great surprise to the great crowd at Sheepshead Bay yesterday when Lowlander won the rich suburban stakes. Lamplighter had been the favorite for weeks, and even after the race had been won the report went forth that Lamplighter was the victor.
 The crowd at the track was the great est In the history of the Coney Island Jockey Club. The day was hot, but that only seemed to draw larger crowd.
 All the telegraph wires leading to Sheepshead Bay racetrack were cut yes, terday morning. A big force of linemne were sent out, but the wires were grounded

Our Repntation Abroad.

An English correspondent takes oc-, casion to point out to Americans, i'm the course of recent letter to New York newspaper, that the outrageous quality of what is sent abroad from this country as news is working won- ders in lowering us in the esteem of foreigners, and in corrupting all classes of transatlantic readers. Of the few days preceding the transmits sion of his angry letter, he states that more than half the whole matter sent during the week was given up to sto- ries of lynching in the south, includ- ing minute details of the burning of 8 negro for outrage, after an hour of tor ture with red-hot irons, and nearly as long story of the lynching of g black nurse maid. "It is 8 small thing" says he, "that Americans living and travelling here should be continually insulted by opinions based on this garbage; but, if international respect and amity mean anything, 1t Is not a small matter that our people as a whole should be consistently and hbel- ously given away in this fashion, and from their own side. too"

A TRAMP steamer, the Red Sea, is on its way from Italy to this country with 800 Russian Hebrews on board. The steamer is consigned to nobody, and no reputable firm in New York city will become it's consignee. The immigrants it brings are of a class the regular steamship lines would not receive. The steamer has such poor sanitary ar- engagements that there is likely to be sickness among them when they arrive. There is probably nothing to be done with the Red Sea but send it back to Europe with it's cargo.

THERE are a few private military or ganizations-that is, organizations that, like the Old Guard, are sustained at the expense of the members, and have not been drafted into the service of the state-that have marked pecu1- iarities of uniform. Among them are "outfits" like those of the French hussars early in the century, like zouaves, like Scotch Highlanders, like the German infantry, like the United States troops that fought in the Mex ican war. Perhaps none of these com panies wears a uniform that the mem bers display with more pride than the Putnam Phalanx of Hartford, Conn. This is an exact copy of the dress of the Continental army that eft into the revolutions" Coat of dark blue, waist coat, facings and ndkneebreeches of buff, top boots, cross belts, a cooked hat, with plume, and shiny, flat brass but tons.

 The race track owners were determined that the pool rooms over the country should not receive news from the track.
 History of the Suburban.
 The Suburban Handicap was first run nine years ago at the spring meeting of the Coney Island Jockey Club. There were twenty starters in the field, and the victor was Gen. Monroe. War Eagle se- cured the place, and Jack of Hearts was third. The time was Ell 3-4, and the value of the handicap, $4, 945. Richmond and Rataplan in 2.09 1-2. The prize was $5, 955.
 . In 1886 1roubadour vanquisbed seven teen other contestants, and year later Eurus won in 9. .12.
 Elkwood was the winner in 1888 in 2.O7 1-2 The Suburban was then worth $6, 912 There were seventeen horses started. Raceland won the year follow ing in 2.09 4-5, securing the $6, 900 prize There were only nine starters.
 Salvador broke all previous records in 1890 by winning, with nine starters, in 9 O6 4-5. In 1891 Loantaka was the win ner. with odds 30 to 1 against him. His time was 2. OF. Last year the event was won by Montana, Major Domo second and Lamplighter third. The time was 2:O7 3-5, the winner receiv- ing SIS, 900; second horse, $5, 900, and third horse. $2,0O0.
