special dated Jan. 20, 1898, said:

Maj. Baldwin, of Duluth, the member-elect
of the Sixth district who has been here
most of the winter. i making rapid strides
in acquiring a knowledge of his legislative
duties. He has already accomplished more
for the old Fifth district than the present
representative has accom- plished during his
entire two years. Maj. Baldwin is energetic
and alert, and the people of his district, who
two years, have turned things over to him.
and have forwarded nearly all of their re-
quests to him. which were previously un-
needed by the man who is drawing The sal
airy. Land matters, pension claims and
other errands in and about the various de-
partments which a Western member is of
course in duty bound to perform, have been
taken Up by Maj Baldwin and disposed Of.
Then, in looking after affairs pertaining to
Duluth harbor and improvements on the
lakes, he has already taken al active part
and is ready to go on with the work as soon
as he becomes full-fedged member.
Col. Sam Phillips, of Duluth, who has
been winning fame as the manager of
the Heatwoie campaign in the Third
district, sent a long and windy COM
munication to the GLOBE yesterday.

Judge Wills authorizes the statement
that he never "admitted," nor stated,
nor implied, in any conversation with
newspaper reporter in Duluth. or else-
where, that "the chan ces of Hon. c. A.

gressional district "were excellent"
Neither did he make any statement as
to the probable result of the state elec.
tion so far as the govern orship is con-
cerned.
Ex- Congressman John Lind and G. L.
Roos. of New Ulm. were in the city yes
terday. They both prdict the election
of Flench in the Ninth district, but ad-
NIT that Schmidt, the Democratic CAM

Mr.. Lind was told that Henry Feig had
had declared for him for United States
senator he smiled and said: II had one
vote before for that and don't want an
other under similar circumstances"
Maj. Baldwin spent an hour IN ST.. Paul

River, where he spoke last evening. He
is confident of the result and Is delight

The Deacon'S Disappearance !!
By WILLIAM LEIGHTON.

II was with minds very i'll prepared
FOR meeting with the deaconess that
we betook ourselves about o'clock in
the evening to Borthwick's Close. We
found the same house Of gloom, with
the shadows increased in the darkness
of these hours, and all appearances be-
tokening utter hopelessness The hours
passed without any better reckoning
than the increasing silence in the street
and the gathering gloom Of the un-
snuffed candle till IL might be about II,
when slight knock was heard at the
door.
MrA Macgillivray started, and we
were not less surprised have no
doubt that all of M had some notion
that the visitor might he no other than
the deacon himself The door was open
cd by the servant; we listened to the
step ON the passage-tramp-tramp-so
like one well known that Girvan ejac-
ulatsd with kind Of spasm, 'It's tho
deaconl'' The words were electric. We
started up, and even Mira Macgillivray
sat upright gazing at the door. 1t open

officers with the red neck on his blue
coat.

(which was brought up to the Office
about an hour ago."
And Girvsn. taking IL out OF his
hand, fixed his eyes upon IL as IL he
were charmed, yet he did not seem to
comprehend what he was reading, for
although asked him what 1t contained
he could net utter q word. MIRA Mao
gilliray's eye was fixed upon him, and
myself sat with open mouth wonder
ing what allied the man.
''Can ye no read?" said the officer.
Read" added impatiently.
And the same words trsmbled ON the
lips Of the deaooness
Out it oame at length, and the effect
was certainly proportioned to the cause.

It had met with rough usage, and. what
added to the effect Of the direful words.
1t was besmeared with blood to such an
extent that some Of the letters were
scarcely legible. ! would willingly have
kept it from the eyes Of the deaconess,
but she held out her hand tremblingly
to get possession Of ii, and it was too
late to attempt concealment She read
1t at a glance, and, as IL IL had been on
fire, threw it from her, unable to utter
q word "Stay little, /" said Girvan as
he rose and took his hat II will be
back in 10 minutes. He hurriedly left
the room. And ], taking up the paper,
began to question the officer as to the
person who left il at the bailies' Office.
] ascertained that his name was Hugh
Mcpherson, o cobbler who resided in
the Cowgate. and that his account Of the
manner of obtaining it was that he
found it among straw on the street right
opposite the coach Office In the High
street, from which the coach to Gala
ehiels started twice a week. 1t was fur
ther stated by Mcpherson that his opin-
ion was that the paper had fallen from
the coach, along with the straw among
which it was found. Before had time
to form any opinion as to the real pur-
port and meaning of this sibylline scrap
Girvan came again hurriedly into the
room, breathing hard, as If he had been
running-an effect no doubt due more
to his excitement than TO his bodily ex-
ertion. Laying down his hat, he resumed
his seat, and putting his hand into his
pocket no drew out another paper some-
thing like an account.

wanted To make sure work. F"
And sure enough it is, replied /,
"but what conclusion do you draw from
it?"
''I am afraid to mentioni It," was tho
reply.
"But I'm no." cried the deaconess in
wild way. lit is jryt as I thought,
she continued as she moved her arms as
il to enable her to utter the words,
"Angus Macgillivray has murdered my
husband.

TIE sorrow over the cruel death ui Pres

WHY HE COMES BACK.

There Is general belief among the
Tammany politicians that Mr. Croker
&C mes back to the city as he came back
at the time OF his Fassett flight, to
save himself and his immediate friends
in Tammany Hall.
1t is an open secret now that Mayor
Gllroy had determined on n thorough
cleansing of Tammany before the next
election. He was resolved that any man
convicted Of wrongdoing by the evil
dence before the LeXow Committee
should SO. His present inaction in the
case of Commissioner McClave
and others whom he might
rave already called to account is
attributed to the request, time and again
made by the Lexow Committee, that no
outside proceedings might be taken
against any of the accused until the
Committee had closed It's investigation
on the ground that any other inquiries or
trials might embarrass Mr.. COTS work
But 1t was known that Mayor Gilroy's
share would commence as soon as Mr.
| COTS ceased and 1t was shrewdly con
jectured that under Mr.. Gilroy's leader
| ship the next municipal government II
elected by Tammany. would not be ont
to give consolation to Mr.. Croker's par
| t!cular cronies.

ested. to turn down" Mayor Gilroy

MUST TRY BURROUGHS
Judge Fitzgerald Declines to Dis
cuss the Indictment
Refers at Length to the Missing
Certificate Of inspection.
Attorneys Criticised for Having
Been Negligent.

Judge Fitzgerald, in Part II. Of the
General Sessions. this morning handed
down a decision In the case OF Horace
II. Burroughs, jr. who is under indict-
mcnt for forgery in the second degree.
in which he denies the motion to dismiss
the indictment and orders the case to
he put on the calendar for trial.
The Indictment charges the defendant
with forging the signature of William =.
Mitchell. a lumber inspector, certifying
to the quality of a cargo of lumber
shipped from Brunswick, Ga. to a port
in the West Indies. The indictment was
filed in 1880
In his decision Judge Fitzgerald says:
This original document, the foundation
Of the Indictment, was not among the
papers at the time of the submission Of
the motion to dismiss the Indictment,
and upon examination the Court discov-
cred that 1t was in the possession OF pri-
vate parties for over four years. without
even II memorandum of Its whereabouts
being attached to the public records. 1t
is obvious that 4 multitude of abuses
are liable to arise IL original evidence
by which the commission of crime Is
sought to he established, Is thus per-
mitted to be removed and withheld from
=" The consent OF the Dlstrict-Attorney
to the dismissal Of this indictment Is,
as appears by his Endorsement and the
accompanying report of his assistant,
bc sed upon the erroneous impression
that the question of fraud was the issue
d sposcd Of a. recent civil action which
resulted in the defendants favor.
" As the District-Attorneys consent
was given upon misapprehension of
the facts. the Court must deny the mo-
ten, and would suggest that, In view of
al the circumstances testified to upon
this inquiry, a due regard for the fur
therance OF Justice requires the submis-
son Of the question Of the defendant's
guilt or innocence to the consideration
of a jury"
This decision reflects upon the action
of Assistant Observation-Disclosures Well
man and O'Hare and ex-Assstant Dis
| trict-Attorney Jerome
| At the time the indictment was found
| 1t was handed to Mr.. Jerome, who was
| then in the District-Attorneys office
! He in turn handed 1t to Mr.. Wellman
| who. at that time. was attached to the
| office of the Corporation Counsel. Mr.
| Wellman gave II to one of the officers
| Of the Lumberman's Association, who
| kent It in his custody until the matter
was recently brought before the notice
Of Judge Fitzgerald, by Lawyer Charles
| w. Brooke
Mr. O'Hare is censured by implicatio
| for recommending the dismissal of the
| indictment.

THE COUNTRY SAFE.

President Clevelanls statement re-
Earding the financial situation contains
much that Is reassuring. AT the same
time the fact that II is considered cx-
pedient to put 1t forth must be taken as
an indication of the anxiety felt at
Washington.
The President has word OF com
mendntion for the New York banks
for their offer of gold, and reiterates
with an emphasis that partakes of n
hint OF bond issue II needed. the
pledge and determination Of the Gov
eminent to protect the National credit
ut all hazards. and to keep up the quail
ity Of our money.
His main objects, however, appear to
be to administer a rebuke to mischiev-
Gus croakers, and to show by COMPARE
son that we are very much better of
now than we were when the last bond
| Issue occurred.
In the former OF these objects public
sentiment will be with him: In the lat
ter the facts are clearly on his side.
In the former emergency, the stock
of gold was nearly as low as now. while
we had only nineteen million dollars
available money to pay ordinary ex'
penses. Now we have more than fifty
| three millions. 1t Is not true that tn,
| payment of matured obligations Is post
poned. We are paying as we 10. More
| over. there has been n change of nearl,
| one hundred and twenty-eiEht million
dollars in our favor. arising from tn,
exports and imports of merchandise ex
elusive OF gold. Up to June /. 1898. tn,
balance was sixty-four millions agains
us. This year 1t Is sixty-two million.
In our favor. Besides. we are no longe
buying useless silver and paying fo
II In gold obligations.
| This Is plain and Ineligible. as Mr.
Cleveland's explanations usually are
1t may be added, too, that we are near
Ing t end OF the unpatriotic an
selfish obstruction Of the Senate t
tariff legislation. Before long the evi
Of uncertainty will be out OF the wa,
and the general business and industrie
of the nation will be released from tn
condition of paralysis in which the.
have been held for so long n time.
The gold reserve must be kept M. o
course. but the country Is safe and con
fdence and wise action on the part o
the banks at the turning point ar
alone needed to bridge over any TEN
porary difficulty. The Presidents state
ment Is timely and Will do good.
