FRIDAY E,r>iNG. JULY 2S, 1893.
A Costly Game OF Poker.

Suit for nearly $4,000 has been
threatened, and will probably soon be
brought against an ex-State senator IN
New York who married wealthy
southern lady q few years age, and
whose name is associated with very
important ieco of legislation in that
State The suit will bring out some
fact that are interesting, and others
that 60 TO emphasize the moral, DO
Your own gambling. If you want to
enjoy game of poker, play your own
hand out, and do not trust to the SUI
perior ability OF tellow-senator. :"
The story that will be told in court,
if the ex-senator does not conclude
to consider the obligation a debt of
honor and pay it, is this:
Five gentlemen sat down to quiet
game of draw in a club in Albany,
much frequented by politicians. Two
members Of the party were State SEN
ators one was an ass mbly nan from
Kings county, and the other two, more
or less closely connected with the max
lug of laws at Albany. The gentleman
who is about to be sued grew sleepy,
and said to his friend, q member OF the
Senate at the time, and opposite po--
litical faith: "You play my hand, and
I'll take the winnings or stand the loss,
I'm going to sleep"
He went to sleep, and when,
several hours later-in fact, In the
morning-he awoke the information
was impaired to him that he owed
one man q cool thousand, an
other several hundred and the third
nearly ninety thousand. The ex-Sen-
ator is very wealthy, and intended to
settle up until he heard of the amount
of his Indebtedness to the third man:
Then he grew angry. 1t was explained
to him by his fellow-senator, who kind
" consented to play his hand for him,
that. after sitting there several hours,
the game waxed hot, and the limit was
made 81 600. 1t presently waxed hot
ter, and the limit was again raised TO
$4,000. In that way, with hard luck,
he had lost about $9l 600, the most of
which was owing to Mr. A.
The Senator claimed that when the
amount of the stakes was changed his
friend had no right to continue without
again consulting him, and that he did
not owe the money. The other players
naturally thought otherwise, and dis
pute arose which which will probably
result in lawsuit. The luckiest play
er said that he would take the matter
in the courts, if only to show up the ex-
Senator as a welcher, and now the ex-
Senator is trying 10 decide whether to
give up the 100000 or TO take chances
on getting all of these details of the
game laid before the public when the
suit is brought. Ex-senator Fred ;.
Gibbs, better Known as the ex-wicked
Gibbs, will be a witness on one side.

The OTTAWA CONFERENCE.

Canadian Liberals are looking forward with
much interest to an Unprecedented event in the
history of political parties in their Countrywide
assembling of Liberal Convention at Ottawa
on June 20 next. The convention was called
by caucus Of Liberal members of Parliament,
and is to be composed of representatives chosen
from each electoral district in the Dominion.
The Liberal members sitting for any district
and the Liberal candidate defeated at the last
general election will hold seats by virtue of
their candidacy, and five other delegates from
each district will be appointed by the Liberal
associations This method Of selection will in
sure popular convention, and ought to bring
out the true and actual spirit Of the Liberal
party In so far as it docs this, it will be a
useful assembly, the influence Of which upon
public sentiment and upon the elections here
after to come should be powerful 1t is the
object of the Liberal leaders who have called
this convention to obtain through the confer
ences of its members clearer insight into the
sentiments of their constituencies, and, earnest
in this purpose they will scarcely fail to devise
and publish policy somewhat more substan-
tial and characteristic than they have yet been
willing to declare.
Events have not favored the Liberal party in
Canada since Sir John Macdonad's death. 1t
was freely predicted that the deluge would fol-
low close upon that occurrence. 1t was said
that Sir John could have no successor, and that
the heterogeneous combination of selfish in
terests which his genius had bound together
would of necessity fall apart so soon as his
grasp loosened on the lines. This seemed rea
sonable, but it was not indicated. On the con-
trary, the party built up by Sir John is stronger
than ever. The party he opposed is still in
opposition, and apparently with less spirit and
Q wagner purpose than characterized it during
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1893-05-21

the wears of his supremacy. Philosophers nave
given a good deal of attention to THIS u'eA-
pected situation. and have explained it n''mei :
ouslv. 1t has been said that the Liberal parry
needed leader. that it needed money, that II
was held down by the power OF corrupt oo'
poratons and politicians. There Is 'r'h uii'
doubtcdly in each and all of these suggestions
Even Mr.. Blake was lacking III the QUANTITIES
that enable a man to command In thc supreme
sense. and since his time there has been no
single leader who possessed anything ike
uosters hold upon the confidence and affection
of tho Liberal masses Mr.. Lauricr has pop
MARTY and the gift of graceful ard spontanc-
ous eloouence. but he lacks hardness: he Is
wanting in sxiftncss of perception. ana ne mas
rot that sublime audacity which the true COM
mander must always hold in readiness for cmer-
gent use. Sir Richard Cartwright is brave
and ready fighter. But he has taken good
dc,I Of trouble to make enemies among his own
nartisans. and they are always inccnyenlenily
turning up. Sir Oliver Mowat possesses both
cba-actcr and ability, but the glitter OF the
st,r Of s.. Michael and st. George somewhat
utcrfcros with his political vision.
It is true that the Liberals lack leader.
It. is true that they are poor, that the corpora
lions are against them, that the Canadian Pa
citic Railroad, with its millions wrung from the
pcople of Canada by uncomfortable taxation,
loses no opportunity and omits to make use OF
no means to Obstruct the progress OF Liberal
sentiment and to defeat Liberal candidates.
But these are not the chief difficulty that stands
in the way of Liberal success. More serious
than the want of leader or of money Is the
want of policy. The Conservative party in
Canada stands for something 1t means the
holding together of the Canadian Provinces
under British rule. There is no question in
Canada except that of sovereignty and form
of government Every other question is in
ferior and dependent for its solution upon the
solution Of the main question. The Conserva-
tiycs are ready with their answer. They say
"Stck to Britain" The Liberals are not ready.
They do not believe in sticking to Britain, but
they are afraid to say what they do believe.
They will never win victory until they avow
themselves What they really mean many
know and all suspect. Perhaps the Ottawa
Convention will have the courage to speak out.

own personal concerns. He felt himself qualified
to serve the community in larger way in the
field Of politics. He was elected to the Assembly
and afterward to the Senate, and amply earned
ut Albany the credit which he received as o care
full ana sagaciOus legislator. Qualified by
this experience for wider field he
desired TO become member Of Con-
grcss, and twice accepted nomination from
his party Both times he was defeated, but in
neither campaign did he by any act or omission
Justify the verdict of the polls or forfeit the re-
spect and confidence Of his supporters. His sub
sequent appointment to the Italian mission was a
suitable recognition of his capacity for public
service and 1t is the testimony Of his colleagues,
of his fellow countrymen abroad and of the State
Department at home that he discharged the
duties of his post with skill and fidelity. a
very large circle of readers is also aware that
during this period he accumulated the material
for works of fiction which would have enhanced
the reputation of great majority Of successful
nOvelistS.
For two or three years Mr.. Aston has lived in
England and in the absence Of any other excuse
for vilifcation it may be conceived that his
American censors construe this as an insult TO
his country which deserves to be angrily re
buked But in order to distort his residence
abroad into an excuse for their conduct they are
forced to assume that Mr. Astor has forsaken and
forsworn his native land This assumption is
purely gratuitous He is merely doing what
thousands of Americans are doing and always
have done from colonial days TO this year OF
grace, except that he is maintaining closer rcla
tions with this country than most sojourners in
foreign parts. lie is spending In enterprise
