Judge Taft, of Cincinnati, Knows How
to Deal With Lawbreakers.


Cincinnati, July 1S.--Judge Taft, OF
the United States circuit court, delivered
his decision today in the case of +. w.
Phelan, charged with contempt of court
in impeding and obstructing the receiver
of the Cincinnati Southern road, by
directing and melting the employees to
leave it's employ. Phelan came here as
agent and company worker with Debs,
TO institute and direct a boycott, in or
der to compel the Pullman Car Company
to treat with its employees, who, it ap-
pears, are not eligible to membership
in the American Railway Union. The
court found that he was an active agent
here of unlawful conspiracy with Debs
and others to paralyze business of the
United States, or in other words to
starve the nation in order to force its
employers into terms Applying to
facts the court held that to undertake
to force a breach of contracts was un-
lawful conspiracy. Moreover, the whole
plan was boycott, which has been de-
clared by all states except Minnesota, to
be unlawful. The court plainly recog-
nized the right of laborers to strike but
there was no warrant of law for boy
cott The judge found Phelan guilty as
charged. The sentence was conline-
ment for six months in the Warren
county jail.

There is only one way to cure deaf

and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in

DAN FRANCISCO, Feb. IL. 1854. -
Theattten1ance during the past week
was not to be complained of consid-
ering the unfavorable condition Of
the weather; it rained nearly every
day.
The grounds are almost completed,
the exhibits are not all in their prop
er places, but those that are make a
very creditable showing.
The exhibits in the Manufactures
and Liberal Arts building is what I
will deal mainly with in this issue.
Arriving at the central entrance the
eye is first attracted by the magniti-
cent statue OF Eureka. the emblem
of California; on its base is very fine
ly moulded an emigrant wagon cross
ing the plains. This statue stands in
the very center Of the building.
Opposite the four corners of this
statue are the entrances to the ex-
hibits of four great Nations namely
those OF Germany, France, Italy and
Russia. The exhibit of Great Brit
ain is close TO the main entrance.
fhe exhibits of other countries are
scattered well over the main floor of
the building
The only exhibit of the United
States in this building is that of the
Greedy Relief expedition located in
the conner of the gallery. This ex-
hioit is an object lesson of life in the
Attic, the representation Of the snow
and ice is true to nature, and the
life size wax figures impart to the
whole lifelike and natural appear

VOTING BT MACHINE.

It is predicted that voting by ballet will soon fall into "inocuuus disue- tude, and that the voter in order to express his preferences at the polls will only have to push the button and the machine will do the rest. "'The machine" in politics has been potent factor, although disreputable one, but the new machine is reform crea. tiOn, which will prevent stuffing the re- turns and insure fair count.
 The advantages of the machine over the ballot method of voting are many and obvious. It would be much cheap CT, as ballots are dispensed with, fewer election officers are required and there would be saving in rents and inciden- tal expenses, One machine records as many votes as could be cast from ten booths under the Australian system. Voting by machine is much simpler, as ballots in the cities and in State elections are now so large and comph- eated that it takes an intelligent man to mark his ticket. By the machine method the several parties and candi- dates can be designated by figures or by colors, indicating the lever or but ton he desires to manipulate. The act of voting locks the lever, which is not released until the voter leaves the booth, which prevents repeating,
 One of the greatest advantages of voting by machine is that every vote recorded IS simultaneously added to those previously cast and the total vote IS always shown by the indicator. The result is known immediately upon the closing of the polls in each precinct, and within very few hours thereafter the vote from every part of the coun- try could be accurately given. The machine has been extensively tested in town elections in New York State and as many as 100000 votes accurately recorded, without single mistake.

Because the Mollie Gibson and Smuggler mines, and two or three other silver bonanzas in the United States are able to operate and pay an occasonal dividend, the Eastern gold men falsely assume that silver mining is still profitable, with the market value of the white metal 62@63 cents per ounce. They should know, if they do not, that the few silver mines now able to earn dividends are rare exceptions. and that even they can not long con. tinue todo 80, as they are working out phenomenally rich ore bodies and doing little if any development work. The fact that the present price of silver has not been profitable to pr6dueers is proved, says the Engineering and Min ing Journal, by the fact that the output of the white metal in this country, which in 1893 amounted to 60g million ounces, will this year be less than 40 million ounces, and much of what has been produced has come from bonan- zas now approaching exhaustion.
 Tt is sprobable that an average price of 60 cents an ounce would not secure tho normal production in this country of more than 3O,OOO, 900 ounces a year.

The .otst important occurrence ih connection with the Transmississippi Congress was the meeting of the Bi- metallic League and the steps taken preliminary to the formation of new political party, to be called the Free Silver party, Prominent among those present were Congressmeii R. P. Bland, of Missouri, and w J. Bryan, of Nebraska, Gen. A. J. Warner, of Ohio, Judge Henry G, Miller and Geo. D. Prentis, of Chicago, J. c. Sibley, of Pennsylvania, Gov Waite, J, W. Deane and A. c. Fisk, of Colorado, Gen. I. B, Weaver and Judge c. C.. Cole, of Iowa, and H. E. Taubeneck, of Illinois.
 The ayowed purpose is to form a new political organization having for it's object the restoration Of free silver coinage at the ratio of l6 to 1. Con gressman Bryan and H. E. Taubeneck, Populists, both favored the scheme, and Mir Bryan expressed the belief that the Populist party would be will ing to abandon schemes embodied in its platform which had been found inn practicable and join issues with the bimetallic movement
 A committee of five was appointed to tnke the movement in hand and call n convention when deemed advisable.

lh forecast of the copper industry, the Engineering and Mining Journal says:
 'It1s aaid shat the Anaconda Con- pany has declared its intention to re- duce the output to 6,0OO,eOO lbs. of fine copper monthly, and this would amount to reduction of almost ons. third from what it has been during the past few months, when their produc- tioa was exceedingly heavy. As there are no indications of an increase in any other quarter, while consumption abroad has been good, and Una proba- bilities are that it will be very much better over here than has been the case during the past six months, it looks aa though prices, which have been unu- sually depressed for some time, would show an improvement before very long
