PICKED UP UNCONSCIOUS.
Keefe Had Been Bending the
Crab" on n Bowery Fire-Escape.

Crab on n Bowery Fire-Escape.
David Keefe, a bricklayer. forty-two
years old and single. was found in the
rear courtyard of the Uncle Sam House,
276 Bowery, this morning with a frac-
tured skull. Keefe had been lodging at
the house four months.
Keefe's room was on the third floor,
in the rear. JUS off his room there is a
fire escape. 1t 6 o'clock this morning
Joseph Yello, who lives In an Elizabeth
was surprised to find keefe on the fire
escape doing what in ~acrobatic circles
is known as bending the crab"
Yello watched the man for a few min
utes, then went into another room to
eat his breakfast. Hal an hour later.
when he again ooked from the window,
keefe was not or the fire scape, but
looking into the yard. Yello saw him ly-
ing apparently unconscious on the
and notified the proprietor.
Policeman Callahan was called. and
went into the back yard and picked
Keefe up. The man was unconscious.
An ambulance was called. and the sur
geon said his skull was fractured. He
had evidently fallen from the fire es-
cape.
Nothing is known at the hotel of
Keefe except that he seemed poor and
has been acting strangely for some
weeks. When his room was searched
this morning two bank-books were found
showing he had 800 on deposit.
At St. Vincent's Hospital, where
Keefe was taken, II was said that he
would probably die.

THIS library had a somewhat pathetic
beginning. Freddie w. Peck, the twelve
year-old and only son of Walter ]. and
Nellie w. Peck, OF 1923 West Seventy
third street. was its founder. He had
saved up a considerable sum of money
and shortly after attaining his twelfth
birthday, he fell sick. While on his
deathbed, he requested his parents to
turn this money into a fund for the es-
Enlistment Of a library at his school.
He died IAN. IL, 1892.
Mr.. and Mrs. Peck have faithfully
carried out their child's dying request,
and the library now numbers hundreds

FOR CROKER'S GOOD.
Republican Legislature Tassed
Many Tammany Bills
Taxpayers Will Be Called Upon to
Pay Nearly Sis, 900, 600.
New Omces Created, Jobs LOCALIZED
and Salaries to BE Raj u.

Richard Croker and the Tammany city
government ave no reason to find fault
with the treatment they have received
at the hands of the Republican Legisla-
ture. The Legislature was good to them.
With the exception of such bills as were
made party measures, the Republican
Legislature was as much Crokers Legis-
lature as its Democratic predecessor.
There was some fear among the spoils-
men that Tammany would fare badly In
the way of appropriations, but the result
proves otherwise, and, paradoxical as 1t
may seem. the hard times proved to be
good times for Tammany.
At the beginning of the session the
Legislature was induced to pass a bill
authorizing the Issue of sl,OOo.oO in bonds
to provide work for the unemployed on
park improvements. How faithfully Tam
many carried out hi law for the exclu-
sive benefit of Tammany Hall has al
ready been shown by THE Evening
World"
Richard Croker must be particularly
grateful to the Republican Legislature.
1t killed the bill repeating the law
which Croker had passed in 1872, deslg-
mating his real-estate firm as the Of
fetal court auctlOneerS, anu winch
would have restored the legal sales to
the Real Estate Exchange, at 60 Lib
erty street. The sQuelchtng OF the re-
pealer secures to Croker and his part
ner a continuance OF the fat fees from
these sales.
AS another favor to Croker. the Re-
publican Legislature passed the bill
legalizing the acts of the "Huckleberry'
railroad, in which Croker is said to be
largely interested. The passage of that
measure, 1t Is said, means d clear saw
ing of 100000 to the ''Huckleberry'
combination.
1t appears hat anything the Tam
many authorities asked for they got,
and the taxpayers will have to foot n
bill to the amount of about SIS, UJJ,OJ
That Is the amount OF the appropriations
authorized for New York City. The
amount named in the bills aggregate
$S,000,0O0. In addition expenditures
which are estimated at S7,0o0,OJ are pro-
vided for.
Most of the measures providing for
the outlay of this vast sum of money
are already laws, having received the
approval of the Governor, and there Is
no apprehension in Tammany circles
that Mr.. Flower will veto any of them.

The Maine Republican Platform.

The Republican party of Maine invite all the
people of the State who are in accord with the
principles of the following platform to unite in
q common course of action
A financial policy not in favor of monometat
lism, either of gold or silver. as the basis OF q
financial system, but international bmetailism TO
be secured by strenuous efforts of the national
power. Now and in the future all dollars should
be of equal value TO the end that suitable cur
rency, abundant for all wants shall secure to all
the peopie the full results of theE labor.
The enactment and enforcement OF all laws re-
quired for the proper recognition and protection
of labor.
privileges can be protec' ed in no surer way than
by absolute exclusion from our country. of the
paupers, criminals, and diseased of Europe. The
party, therefore, favors the passage of such re-
strictiye legislation as will admit TO our shores
only those immigrants who have the capacity and
desire to become good American citizens.
A firm and unbr ending foreign policy, which will
prevent the interference of European powers in
the domestic government OF American states and
countries. The party sustains the course of
President Harrison and eX-Minister John L..
Stevens toward the people of the Hawaii islands,
and wholly disapproves the un-American policy
of the Cleveland administration in relation there
to
Legislation for the benefit of the Union soldiers
of the war of the rebellion, their widows and
children, and disapprova of the present policy of
the Pension Bureau in making such laws, to de-
gree, nulity.
Full recognition of the benefits to all the people
of the State which have come from temperance
and prohibition and we pledge our continued and
hearty support OF the enforcement of the prohibit
tory laws.
A tariff for the protection of American labor
against the undergrad and pauper labor of foreign
countries.
The Republican party calls upon all the voters
of the State 10 express at the polls their dsap.
prevail of the Wilson tariff bill, the main vicious
features of which are maintained and added 10 in
the bill now before the Senate, which surrenders
the interests of Northern labor, while ii protects
those of the South, and delivers nearly every in
dustry of Maine into the hands of our nearest and
most hostile rival, the Dominion of Canada.
The Blaine system of reciprocity and opposition
to the Democratic policy which attempts its aban-
donment and repeal.
Cordial approval of the course of the Maine del
egation, in the Senate and in the House of Repre-
sentatives, in fighting The Democratic tariff bill at
every stage, and continued support in every fur
ther effort 10 obstruct and defeat the bill.
A full endorsement of the conduct of the affairs
of the State by the executive and legislative
branches, and a cordial recommendation of Gov
ernor Henry b. Cleaves for reelection to the high
office which he has so admirably filled.

Condemned by Act and by Word.

Congressman Wilson was obliged to con-
fess that the Gorman-Brice combine held
the conference committee by the throat.
The Senate conferees went into conference
determined to make no concessions. The
House members could do no less than dis
agree without stultifying themselves, but
after protesting sufficiently will probably
come to terms. President Cleveland has
paved the way for reconciliation favorable
to the sugar trust and declares that tax
upon sugar is not conference.-the. Of course
it isn't. First, its Democratic, as Democ-
racy is now exemplitied, because it favors the
sugar trust to which that party is undoubt-
eddy indebted; second, it is Democratic be-
cause it is direct tax upon necessity of
life, without affording any protection to the
wage workers, because it taxes the table of
the poor mans family as heavily as it does
the table of the millionaire. There's no
doubt the President was right when he
said: Under our party platform and in
accordance with our declared party pur-
poses, sugar is legitimate and logical arti-

There is one favorable feature con-
nected with anarchist Mowbrays arrival
here from Englsnd. He has caused schism
in the ranks of anarchy in this country.
Herr Most is bitter against him but why are
either of these enemies, avowed enemies of
law and order, allowed their freedom?
England's leniency towards anarchists has
been extreme, if anything greater than this
country has shown. Yet Mowbray was i'm
prisoned in England and has taken steps to
become citizen of this country to avoid be-
ing sent back there. Mowbray declared to a
reporter: II will do all in my power to
spread anarchy among the laboring men,
who are only slaves to capital. The time
is now ripe for anarchy, and labor every
where is dis satisfied with its present condi-
tons, and will flock to the standard of an
archy when it is understood what it means.

lieve that can make thousands of converts

cities as centres of strength. was i'm
prisoned in England for melting breaches
of the peace by my arguments and this
was all wrong. / do not advocate violence
publicly, and never give my enemies
chance to catch me-" Is it possible for
such a man under such circumstances to
become an American citizen? The thought
is enough to recall the departed spirits of
the founders of the republic. It's dis
grace that this man is allowed to make this
talk and go free.

"Something will have to give way before
the domestic manufacturer quits this field,
or before he allows the foreign maker to
enlarge his hold on this market. No matter
where the duty is placed, the manufacturer
will adjust himself to it."-American Wool
and Cotton Reporter.
The above lie being used by some of our
exchanges with leaning toward free trade
as an argument against the system of pro-
lection. On the contrary it is an argument
in favor of protection. Something will
have to give way" before the manufacturer
does. 1t will be the wages of the employees.
The very shadow of the substance of the
Wilson tariff has demonstrated this conclu-
sively. The manufacturer with large
capital may withstand the COM
petition with the cheaply manu-
featured goods from abroad. Those with
small or borrowed capital will be placed on
precarious footing though the majority of
them may survive. There isn't the slight
est question, however, but what wages will
have to 20 down. While the manufacturer
is adjusting himself to the new duty the
wage worker will adjust himself to tor
will 60 hungry. Those are the alternatives.
There will, however, be no alternative for
the wage workers who are thrown out of
employment when the American goods he
is now making shall be replaced by
foreign made goods. Does anyone doubt but
what the large stocks of goods which the
foreign manufacturer is piling up until such
time as the new tariff goes into effect and
our markets are thrown open to them, does
anyone doubt but what those goods will be
sold in these markets of ours and that they
will replace in a considerable degree prod
ucts that would otherwise be made in this
country?

PRESS COMMENTS.
The Tariff up 10 Date.
Boston Advertiser. J

There is sorrow in the White House
where the lights are dim and low, there is
grief up at the capitol where sad-eyed
statesmen go, there is pain in the commit.
tee rooms where Democrats sit glum, and
the star-eyed goddess glowers as she frowns
and bites her thumb; there is weeping
loud and wailing over one poor tariff bill
and the Democratic cloak rooms are all
silent, cold and chill. Democrats who once
were happy now are weary, sick and sad
but nobody has discovered that the trusts
are feeling bad.
Once the house set out quite gayly to
draw up tariff bill aud the Democrats as.
sembled on the capitals high hill. Mr.
Wilson and McMillin and the other Dem.
ocrats cut the duties down on diamonds
carpets, coal and Persian cats, took The
duty off of sugar, slapped higher one on
rice, tinkered with the tariff question till
they all felt gay and nice, sent the bill on
to the Senate, happy DER their work and
glad, but they found somehow or other that
no trusts were feeling bad.
For the big trustee owned the Senate
owned it body, mind and soul, and they put
the tariff measure in dusty pigeon hole
