NEGRO SOLD ON THE BLOCK.
1t Has Occurred only Twice Since the
Close of the War.


At Fayette, Mo-, a negro was sold on
the block on Tuesday. This is the Sec
ond sale of the sort since the close of the
war and both took place under the va
grancy law, which provides sale for a
limited period. A Fayette dispatch
says:
The victim was George Winn, a lazy
negro, who lived at Glasgow in this coun-
ty, and who several years has been an
eyesore to the citizens of that town.
VIM was arrested last week by con-
stable on the charge of vagrancy and
tried before a jury of six prominent citi-
zens at Glasgow. 1t was shown in the
testimony that VIM had worked only
six days in the last six months, and that
he was addicted to street loaflng. The
jury found him guilty as charged. and he
was ordered to be brought to the city
and sold as vagrant at the court house
DOR at public Query to the highest bid
der, cash in hand, for period OF sir
months. PS. Campbell was the pur-
chaser, and 500 the price. ssf
The first public sale of negroes in this
country under the vagrancy act took
place May 2S, 1892. The sale was extern
sively advertised, and there was an i'm
mense crowd present. The negroes of
the citysand county gathered on the
street corners for days before the sale
and discussed the matter. s
Many of the older negroes, who had
been slaves before the wal, talked in a
very bitter manner about. It'll and many
threats were made. Indesd SO strong
was the feeling that the sheriff was in
duced to swear in an extra number of
deputies to preserve the peace on that
day.
Three negroes were placed on the
block, and Judge McCrary did the talk
ing. The three vagabonds were placed
in row on the top step of the court
house, where they were inspected by
the crowd
The first was George Turner, who was
likely appearing negro, and the bidding
was lively. He was knocked down to a
banker for $26. AS the man ran away
within two days and hasn't been seen
since, the banker was out his $26.
The next was John Hicks, a lively
young fellow. % years old. He might
have brought a good sum of money, but
as he mounted the block he shouted:
Else gwine to tell you white folks. how
dat dis niger amt gwine, to work for
nobody nohow." He was Knocked down
| for dollar, and his purchaser sold him
for $3.50. He worked two days and left
| the country. fs
The last was Sam Smell, negro about
So years old. An old colored man began
bidding, and kept it up Until $3.50 was
reached, when he stopped 'nodding'
and said: HE amt wuff any moa dan
| dat. Use knowed him too long. You
| fool dis niggah.'' A saloon keeper
| bought him for $5.25, dressed him in a
new suit and filled him with beer and
| probably got his full value from him.

MINISTER STEVENS.
stirs up tho British Lion in Honolulu


A resident of Honolulu states that
social circles there have been greatly
disturbed over little affair between
Minister Stevens and Jakes Hay Wade
house, jr., the son of the British Minis
ter. Very warm letters passed between
them, and for time the affair looked
threatening. 1t is now virtually settled.
Minister Stevens, in an official commune
cation to the State Department, had re-
ferred to the status of individuals in
Honolulu, and spoke OF young Mrs.
Wadehouse as ''half CASTE" He mere
ly stated fact without any intended
disparagemest, to show that the attitude
of the British Minister was hostile to
American interests in Hawaii, and cited
the family connections as one of the
reasons. Young Wadehouse learned in
some unknown way that his wife had
been called half caste, and was furious.
He wrote to Minister Stevens demanding
an immediate explanation. He said his
WIG Was d. udlL SibtcI VI TluCcSb hIuIdul
the daughter of A. S. Cleghorn, but he
added, "she is the issue of previous
marriage of Mr.. Cleghorn, and has no
claims upon the throne by right of in
heritance or influence"
Minister Stevens eoolly replied that his
communication to the United States
government in relation to the nativity of
individuals in Honolulu was official, con-
fidential and intended to serve only
American public interests and for which
he was responsible only to his govern
ment. He added that eff have used
the term half caste I have merely adopt
ed language in common use, not think
ing or designing in the remotest degree
to disparage yourself or your wife, to
whom heve never referred save in terms
of respect"
The impression seems to be abroad
that the British Minister, acting under
instructions, is seeking to favor the
Hawaiian Princess in her aspirations to
the throne, and that Theophilus Davies,
her British guardian, is also working in
her interests. There is probably more
of intrigue In this affair than some men
dream Of.

President Cleveland's recent appoint
ments to foreign missions are not con-
spicuous for their excellence, though
there is no particular complaint to make
against the character and ability of any
of the persons selected. The chief
shortcoming is that none of them
are persons of more than local promi-
hence, with the exception perhaps of ex-
Senator Eustis of Louisiana, and his prom
inence has not been great Important
foreign missions like those to France and
Z Germany ought to be filed by men of
conspicuous ability and national reputa-
ton.

Practically all the doubt in the public
mind of the guilt of Carlyle w. Harris
comes from his own dramatic and oft
repeated protestations Of innocence and
those of his mother. We imagine
that very few If any Of the
persons who /; have been pro-
posing to get up amass meeting ever
read any considerable part of the EVIL
dence in the case, much less heard
any of the witnesses. The danger
that Ean innocent man will be con-
victed of murder in the courts
of New York is exceedingly small.
The law is all in his favor; the jury are
exceedingly reluctant to find a verdict
of guilty when life is at stake, and moth
ing less than proof so strong as to estab-
lish guilt beyond not only reasonable
doubt, but great many unreasonable
ones also is sufficient. Furthermore al
ter conviction by the jury the case is re-
viewed by two courts and finally by the
Governor before the sentence is executed.
If there is the slightest doubt Of Harris S
guilt he will never be executed.

The Senate had the good sense yester-
day to kill the listing bill, and thus save
the state from piece of drastic legisla-
ton which was certain to be unpopular
even with the people who thought they
wanted it, and could only result in de-
bauching the public conscience and
checking the growth of the state without
removing any of the existing inequalities
of taxation of which the people complain.

We regret that the case was taken out OF
court in q way that made 1t impossible to get
the question in dispute before the law court.

the Ward 3 eouncilmen. There was a
vexed question before the exact facts
were ascertained; after they were ascer-
tanned there was none at all. At the
hearing on the first day the Hon S. G..
Z Strout contended that the whole number
of ballots given in for councilmen as re-
turned by the clerk did not include the
blank ballots. and he claimed that, if
that was the case, nobody was elected
unless he received one more than half
that total. The next day Mr.. Strout dis
covered that the blanks had been count
ed in making up the total, admitted that
blank ballots should not be counted, and
conceded that if the blank ballots were
deducted both .Messrs, Kent and Lefavor
would have more than half the ballots
thrown, and SO were elected even under
the rule he himself had commended for.
