There was flied in New York yesterday

not one cent of which is to 90 to her
husband, whom she scores in a codicil.
The woman was Mrs. Josephine l..
Peyton. She left 81 900 each to score
of local institutions of charity, but to
her husband left not penny. There
were three codicils to the will, the last

this Mrs. Peyton revokes the former
clause in her will to creating trust
fund for her husband of 100000, and
revokes the appointment Of her hus-
band as one of the executors and as
guardian of her daughter, for the rea-
son, it is stated, that Peyton had acted
in manner not BETTING a husband"

coed the husband as trustee. Mrs.
Peyton gave one-half of the estate to

Revived i'm his Colin.

GRAND LODGE, Mich, Nov. To-
Elan Muscott, while on tripto Alma,
a little over year ago, was taken i'll
and, supposedly, died suddenly. He
was buried by strangers. Yesterday
his friends decided to take up the body
and remove it to Willsamston. When
they opened the coffin they found that
the body had turned over and that the
hands were clutching the hair, hand
fuls of which had been torn out. The
face was terribly lacerated and torn,
giving evidence of the desperate strug-
gle he had made to free himself from
his tomb.

AS THERE are many poor white men
in Richmond who vote for congress
men opposed to high tariff on the
necessaries of life and to Force bills,
the democratic committee of that city
propose to ask the democratic council
thereof to put some of these poor white
men on the roll of the city's laborers in
place of negroes, who always vote for
congressman in favor OF both high
tariff and Force bill. If that city
council be wise it will grant the rea-
sonable request referred to. No little
of the slump in the recent democratic
vote was caused by the absurd and fa-
tai policy pursued by the democrats in
authority, of giving employment to their
political enemies and allowing their
political friends to starve. White la
borers are poor, but they are also hu-

IT HAS just been discovered that the
Miners union in Pennsylvania during
its late strike was guilty OF the most
brutal and inhuman deeds of cruelty
and bloodshed, and resorted to MURDER
arson and other crimes without hesita-
ton in order to prevents other workmen
from taking the places they had volun-
tarily abandoned. They blew up
houses with dynamite, killing their &C.
cupants, and used hollow car wheels
as death dealing bombs /; drew lots to
kill proprietors, and beat laborers and
destroyed property. Some members
of the union have been arrested. 1t Is
hoped they may be made to feel the
full penalty of the law, and regretted
that they cannot be made to suIfer
some of the pains they inflicted upon
their innocent fellow workmen last

FROM DIVERS expressions of sundry
high democratic officials, it seems as if
to them, though to few others, the de-
feat of Senator Hill in New York is
ample compensation for that sustained
by the whole democratic party. The
most noticeable thing about this is that
the democratic party should continue
to extend to such men the right hand
of fellowship. But the democratic par
ty has fallen into strange hands since
the war between the States. The old
Western democrat referred to in the
GAzErrE's Washington correspondence
of yesterdays date, told sad but
naked truth in respect of its Southern
leaders

TIE REPUBLICAN press, almost with
one accord, agree that the proposed
passage of free ship bill is "rebel
conspiracy" to break up shipbuilding
in the North. But Mr.. Cramp, from
whose yard at Philadelphia the new
ship St. Louis has just been launched,
says he can compete successfully with
any foreign shipbuilders, and that so
far as he is individually concerned he
is not opposed to the bill referred to.
Who should be better qualified to talk
ON this matter, Mr.. Cramp, or partisan
Northern editors who don't know a

the Northern editors say about the
"rebels' is not disagreeable to them,
for it is evidence of hate, and hster is
always tho debtor of the man he hates.

THE Z. s. treasury loss for the last
half of 1898 was 81 million dollars, and
the receipts for the year were SO million
dollars less than the year preceding.
Market reports show that the liabilities
of discredited obligations reached the
enormous sum of three billion dollars
The sales from mercantile institutions
were 81 per cent. less than in 1892. and
in grain and produce the fall was even
greater. With all this we are told by
goods-box politicians that capital is
seeking investment and money is
plenty.

The enormous decline in stocks and
failures of large corporations clearly
demonstrates that they have been run
in about the same way as the govern
ment. The era of bloated prosperity
ensuing from borrowed capital has col
lap5ed with the expenditure of capital
so borrowed and upon the heels of this
1t suddenly dawns that the bonds are
due. Nearly everything has been con-
Quoted in this manner, which has at
placed business at tile mercy of capital
lists. The government has pursued the
same policy, which has had the same
result. Although the borrowed money
naturally created an unnatural rise in
values, the time comes at last when OBJ
legations must be met and a correspon-
ding depression is bound to ensue Yet
the policy is called craftsmanship, when
it is anything else.
