LATE POINTERS.

Henry Staudenmeyer, arrested on Monday
on suspicion of being concerned in the as
sault on Henry Lauer, was released from
custody yesterday. The police announced
that Staudenmeyer was not a prisoner, but
having no place to stay was given a cell at
the station They decided yesterday
that it would be just as well to let him stay
elsewhere, and accordingly opened the cell
door and allowed him to depart The report
from the hospital is that Lauer is much bet
ter, and as soon as he is well enough to talk
the police hope to get facts from him suf-
fcient to enable them to arrest the person
who did the slugging.
W. E. Quirk, Minneapolis switchman,
was arrested last night by Patrolman Gruber

REMOVAL OF JEFF DAVIS.

The removal of the body of JEFF
DAVIS from New Orleans to Richmond
aroused one of the greatest demonstra-
tions in the history of the South. AT
every station on the way thousands OF
people paid tribute in speeches and
cheers to the memory of the leader OF
the lost cause. In this is remarkable
commentary upon the freedom OF Amer
lea. 1t Is doubtful that it could have
taken place in any other republic. and
certain that it could not in any king
dom or monarchy.
JEFF DAVIS is only memory, and
the tributes were the natural overflow
of fangiess sentiment. The demonstra-
tious bear no practical import. More
than nine-tenths of the people who paid
their respects to the body of the revered
leader are as loyal to the Union as those
who fought to sustain it, and those who
are still disloyal are so very few as to
be utterly harmless. The bone of con-
tention which brought on the war is
only matter of history, and, if the ques-
tion of its revival were put to vote in
the South. it would be overwhelmingly
defeated. Many who fought for seces-
sion have many years trained in the
ranks Of the Republican party, and
many of these Joined in the ovation to
the body of their old leader.
The South will never again attempt
to secede. Its financial interests are too
firmly bound up IN those of the North.
Family ties have sprung up between
the divisions which have had wonder
full effect in building up national feel
ing throughout the South.
But, for all this, great many Repub-
Ilcau sheets of the North are giving
vent to the most acrid comment upon
the matter. Nothing said by the press
ofthe Union during the war was more
bitter than some Of the things said now.
These papers profess to represent the
party of ABRAHAM LINCOLN. but their
expressions of hatred for the South
bear striking contrast to the senti-
ment of the great presidents second in
augural. In that Mr.. LINCOLN said:
1T may seem strange that any men
should dare to ask a just Gods assist
ance in wringing their bread from the
sweat of other mems faces; but let US
judge not, that we be not judged. \ x
With malice toward none, with charity
for all. with tirmness in the right as
God gives us to see the right, let us fin-
ish the work we are in, to bind up the
nations wounds. TO do all
which may achieve just and lasting
peace among ourselves and with all ma
tlonS."
The war is over, and there will never
be another between the North and
South. 1t would be far wiser for every
pa .>er of the North to divest itself of
bigotry and seek to wipe out all sec
tlonal feeling. A few papers of the
South still cling to the principles of the
lost cause, but the majority of the South
ern papers are as ready to denounce
their utterances as are Northern pa
/pers. 1t is not long since the Atlanta
Constitution rebuked one of these most
severely. They had the legal right TO
remove the body of JEFF DAVIS, and to
make the demonstration, and the bitter
denunciations of the Northern papers
can accomplish nothing except to call
out bitter tretort from the Southern
press, thus exciting an unnecessary feel
ing,

porter was instructed to find out what
truth there was i'm the rumor.
A call was made at the ge neral Offices
of the company, and inquiries were
made of those in confidential position
as to the truth of the rUmors. The
greatest surprise was manifested when
the substance OF the rumors was given.
One of the men who stands very close
to an official who occupies very high

There is absolutely no truth in any
Of the things which you have told me.
There has been no circular sent out, nor
notice given of any such changes as you
have mentioned. 1t has been the Gus
tom of some of the roads to make sweep
ing reductions in the salaries of their
employees, but the Northern Pacific has
never done anything of the kind nor has
any such thing been contemplated as
far as l know of. 1t is the custom of
the road to lay off some of the men in
the shops after the extra work of the
winter has been completed, but it Is a
regular thing, and this has been done
this spring as usual. The laying off of
men occurred May l.

Of May are concerned, they have been

a large bet on one of the contestants,
and took the newSboy to assist him in,

good mascot. 49,

whom my friend had bet,was getting
the best of the fight. The mascot was
very sleepy, however, and he went to
sleep on the floor during the contest i'll
which he was not interested III the
slightest degree. he was so sleepy that
my friend decided to let him go home
and go to bed. especially as the man on
whom he had placed his money Was get
ting the best of the fight. He let the
mascot go and in the next round his man
got punch which put him to sleep. He
declares that the next time he takes
mascot to any place of that kind he will
compel him to remain until the contest
is finished if be is compelled to sleep on
the floor or any other place"

"ON A PINCH"

In May, 1891. seven months after the
adjournment OF the billion-dollar con-
gress which had not only wrecked the
surplus but had depleted the revenue.
Secretary FOSTER took the country into
his confidence and told it what the situa-
ton was and what he would do. There
was then no question of the expectation
of gold to bother him: the deadly SHER-
MAN act of the previous year had not
begun to get in its Work, but the Nc
KINLEY bill, with its stimulation of i'm
ports ahead OF its operation, had reduced
the revenues, and the Sc cretary was con
fronted with deficit. He had not
enough funds to meet current appropri-
ations and this was the occasion of his
interview.
Asked if he would trench on the
greenback reserve of one hundred mill
ions If the revenues failed to meet ex-
penses, he said that he would not hesi-
tate to do it ION pinch" The GLOBE
then called attention to this threatened
Impairment of the reserve, not to be
made for the purpose for which it was
created-the redemption, if presented,
of the greenbacks-but for the purpose
of meeting appropriations made by
congress, and it expressed the opinion
then that the reserve could not be used
for such purpose. 1t does not recall
that any of its esteemed contemporaries
who were supporting The secIetary's
party then took its part in that discus
sion.
The Republican secretary did not
have to use the reserve to pay expenses,
but towards the end of his term the
SHERMAN law facilitated other forces,
and greenDacks and notes presented for
redemption began to draw down the
free gold. MIR. FOSTER was willing to
issue bonds, but the better sense or
political sagacity of the president for
bade it. MIR. CLEVELAND has precisely
the same ground for refusing to issue
bonds that Mr.. HARRISON had, and
some others. Any rebuke of Mr.. CLEVE-
LAND hits Mr.. HARRISON a harder
blow. because Mr.. HARRISON refused to
follow the drift of his party, while Mr..
CLEVELAND has no precedents to bind
him.
But the fact is, and our Republican
contemporaries do not seem to grasp 1t,
that this administration is not intended
to be prolongation of its Republican
predecessors. 1t was not put there to do
the things Republican administrations
had done. 1t came to stop, not to pro-
long; to change, not to continue. The
conditions it meets are not of its max
ing, but of Republican. Remedy does
not lie IN pursuing the same course, but
in altering it. This administration is
Democratic, not paternalistlc. 1t is
here to restore, as fast as possible, Dem
ocratic methods of finance; to dissolve
the connection of the treasury and Wall
street; to resume the function of declar-
ing what is money and to drop the one
of making or providing money. 1t will
not daily with palliatives, such as the
issue of bonds will only be. The coun-
try has been on prolonged financial
spree. 1t is in the period of nausea and
headache and dkatzenjammer; it is mere
ly paying the penalty. Let it alone.

Complete Upsetting OF a RumOr
OF a Reduction of Wages.
There have been many rumors in the
streets and among railroad men for the
1 past few days o. some very important
aud radical changes in the policy of the
Northern Pacific line, and of some i'm
portant changes which were to be made
in, connection with the monthly salary
lists and expenses.
1t was stated that bulletin had been
sent out to the effect that, commencing
with the 1st of June. salaries of every
empioye, from the general manager
down, would be reduced all the way
+, from 25 per cent to per cent. Those
who had been in the habit of drawing
: tile sum of $50 per month would be re-
-duced to Land those who were getting
the sum of $50 per month would be cut
to-, about S47.50. Several thousands of
dollars annually would be chopped from
the salary Of the general manager, and
all of the heads OF departments would
be severely cut.
In addition to this, the shops of the
company were to be shut aown for the
period of one month, and all of the EN-
ployeS in them laid Off for that period.
The reason assigned for the changes
was that the earnings of the line had
not been large enough during the month
of May 10 warrant the paying of the
customary salaries anG were not Suffi-
cient to pay the expenses of the month.
Taking it all in all, the rumor was one
calculated to scare any employe OF the
company into a fit. 1t was not gener-
ally circulated, but it reached such
condition that it was brought into the
editorial rooms of the GLOBE, and re-
