Denver, Colo, March 24.-There was
a large attendance at the rooms of the
supreme court today, to hear the opin-
ion of the court on the question pro-
pounded by Governor Waite, involving
the validity of his acts growing out of
his removal of Orr and Martin as mem
bers of the fire and police board and
the appointment OF Barnes and Mullins
in their stead. 1t was to seat the latter
that the governor called out the militia.
The attempt failed and then the gov
ernor asked the supreme court to say
who were the legal members of the
board.
Both sides were represented today by
eminent counsel and the entire city
manifested a profound interest in the
decision, for the reason that the safety
of life and property was involved.
Waite Grossly in Error.
The unanimous opinion of the court
was adverse to the action of the gov
ernor in all things, except that the
court recognized his right to remove
and appoint members of the board. 1t
was declared that his power ended
there, and that he could not induct his
appointees into office, and his employ
ment of the militia for this purpose was
greatly in error and unauthorized by
law.
The decision of the court is a great
triumph for the law firm of Wells, Tay-
lor & Taylor, who have insisted from
the beginning that the case was one Tor
judicial determination. The weight OF
opinion among the members of the bar
has been against the position assumed
by this firm, but the opinion OF the
court seems to be a severe blow to the
usurpation of power by the executive
and upholds the dignity OF the Jul
dietary.
Shortly after the opinion had been
handed down it was reported that the
governor, in great anger, had declared
he would take the matter into his own
hands and settle the case by again
calling out the troops and capturing
the city hall at any cost. 1t is gem
orally believed that on sober second
/ thought he will not attempt any such
course.
The committee of safety held spe-
cial meeting at 4 o'clock and after dis
cussing the possibility of further trou-
BILE asked the governor to grant them
an interview. The executive sent a
reply that he would meet a committee
of twenty or twenty-five, but refused
to see forty or fifty.
| VigiIantes Prepared For Work.
A subcommittee of the committee of
safety, headed by j. F. Vale, waited
upon the governor this evening and
discussed the situation with him. Nei-
Their the governor nor the committee
men would divulge the results of the
interview, but it is known the c-nn-
mittee strongly advised the governor
to abide by the decision of the courts
warning him that another resort t.
arms would not be tolerated They
assured him that Commissioners Orr
and Martin would not attempt to de-

FRAuGHT WITH DANGER.
Mcguire Looks Upon the sIOveinent
with Sorrow.

Washington, March 4.-Representa-
tive Mcguire, of San Francisco. author
of the single tax bill before Congress,
and leading congressional exponent
of Henry George. said tonight:
IL do not attach any Importance to
the Coxey movement itself. 1t will
amount to nothing, but it is a symp-
tom of growing conditions that is
fraught with infinite danger to popular
government and to the Institutions of
liberty. 1t represents the growing dis
content of the masses and the gradual
loss of faith in Republican govern
ments. It's purpose is by the presence
and force of numbers Immediately me-
nacing the national legislature to CO.
cree Congress into the enactment of
laws to which the members of Congress
were not pledged by their constitu-
ents, which they do not deem wise. OF
course. if Congress should for mo-
ment yield to that pressure, the men,
bers would be governed in their legis-
lative acts by a force independent OF
the popular sovereignty, which they
now represent, and a force unknown to
the constitution.
1.-The CoXey movement, whether il be
peaceable or warlike in its purpose. is
an appeal to force as a substitute for
the ballot, and the ultimate result OF
its policy is interneicene war. This
movement is the natural outgrowth of
existing conditions. 1t is the natural
outgrowth of the monopoly of the re-
sources of this country by the few and
consequent wretchedness and helpless
ness of the masses. The movement is
the development of the supreme test
! of Democracy 50 clearly prophe-
sled by MacAuley in his let
/ ter to Henry S. Randall on May %
/ 1857, wherein, after speaking OF
the impossibility of maintaining demo
cratic institutions where the industrial
masses are reduced to Wretchedness
and says: You may think your cOun-
try enjoys an exemption from these
evils. 1 will frankly own to you thai
L am of a different opinion. Your fate
L believe to be certain, though it is
deferred by a physical cause As long
as you have a boundless extent of fer
tile and unoccupied land your labOTing
people will be far more at ease thar
the laboring people of the old world
and while that is the case, the Jeffer
sonian policy may continue to rest with
out causing any fatal calamity
"MacAuley's prophesy." said Mr.. Ma
guire, will unquestionably be verified
unless a middle course be speedy pur
sued, which will give to the whole PEG
pie equal rights in our natural re
sources and an equal stake in the sol
of our country"

COXEY's ARMY IN GLOVER.
Populists Along the Route Are Feed
ing Them We'll.

Massilon, O., March 24-There seems
to be no danger of the soldiers of
Coxey's commonweal starving.
The Populists along the proposed line
of march are bestirring themselves. AT
Alliance, a store room has been set
apart as comnissary headquarters, and
this is packed with an endless variety
of eatables.
A farmer near Pittsburg sends word
that he has slaughtered three oxen
and will have them roasted before the
army arrives.
At Canton arrangements have been
made to give the soldiers their feast
on Monday morning. A carload of po-
tatoes, flour and provisions of other
kinds have been donated by the farm
ers of Greentown, and contributions of
money are coming in from other
places.
General Coxey issued an appeal for
financial help today. He requests
that all remittances be made by ex-
press and by currency, as the banks
are suspicious and might refuse to
cash checks or drafts.

train to San Francisco.
''They are all gone was the re-
Spouse.
"Oh, no: doncher know me friend is
beastly i'll, and he cahn't go unless he
has lower berth. He must have one,
doncher know?"
The agent was sorry, but as he only
had upper berths, he could do moth
ing. Then the spokesman insisted on
seeing Mr.. Crawley, and that official
again explained the absence of any
lower BERTH only to receive the reply:
Jaw, yes; but we must have lower,
doncher know"
All right. if you must, you must"
answered the official. They will cost
you just 1859. We have an extra car
here and can put it in for you at that
figure, if upper berths are not good
enough"
"Aw! Yes, thanks awfully.''
They paid the money. the empty
Pullman was coupled onto the train,
and the boys at the depot say that
before the cars left the Englishmen
had made the porter make up every
berth in the car. They said they had
paid for each of the sections and they
proposed to come as near as possible
to getting their moneys worth.-Los

So, GOO
The fact of his disappearance at the
time was telegraphed all over the coun-
try.
Cronkhfte was elected county treas
urer in 1890 by the Republicans of
Warren county. He was very popular
and at the end of his first term was
reelected. So much confidence was
placed in him that at the end of his
| term his accounts were not examined,
| though it was afterwards discovered
that he was at that time $4,000 short
| in his accountA On January y, 1888,
| it was discovered that he was short in
his accounts $4,000.
Cronkhite disappeared and no trace
could be had of him. The grand jury
! indicted him. but the officials of War
rem county were not able to find him.
The sheriff of an adjoining county
got clew to Cronkhite's whereabouts
and followed it up He found that Mrs
Cronkhite was receiving letters from

Ito Chief Glass and detectives were put

Cronkhite came to the postoffice this
morning to get letters from his wife
and was arrested. He acknowledged
that he was the guilty party and only
desired to transact little business be-
fore he was taken back 70 illinois on

Cronkhite is about 30 years of age
and does not gamble or drink. He says
he lost money in an unfortunate rea,

has a large tract of land in Gardena
in his wife's name. How much was
paid for the land is not known.

or German, Avoid Italians.
The marriage of her daughter to the
Prince d'Galatro, commonly called Co.
lonna, occurred during the early stages
of Mrs. Mackays struggles to estab-
fish herself in European society. 1t
happened while she was living in Paris,
entertaining on a scale which dazzled
the bourgeois, who learned of her Won
derful balls and banquets, as much as
lit did the really exclusive society of
Paris, which knew more of them
from experience. The nobility and til
tied rastaquoueres that filled the rooms
of her hotel in the American quarter
and dined lavishly from her gold plates
seemed to her then to represent the
best of European society. In those
days her daughter married the Italian
After while, when Mrs. Mackay
men who swarmed to her house were
of the kind that can be gathered in
any European capital by a liberal hos
tess, and not likely to be of any per-
manent social advantage to her, she
wisely went to London. The endorse
ment of the English nobility is worth
more in a social way than that of all
together, and Mrs. Mackay succeeded
| in London in attracting to her house
a set which has been of more adVant-
age to her than all the titled foliage
of Paris could ever have been. Posi-
bly, had she realized this sooner Miss
Mackay would never have married an
Italian prince, That nobility of all in
Europe offers least to an American
woman, at all events outside of its own
country. Few Americans who can
avoid it are willing to live there, and
the honor of exalted position is rather
an empty one. Next to marriage with
a titled Englishman, an alliance with
a really aristocratic Frenchman or
German is the best thing for an Amer
lean woman ambitious for social posi-
ton in Europe. After these three
countries comes Austria; but man
should be of higher rank than in any
of the other countries to obtain for a
wife the same degree of social recog-
milton. An Italian is probably the least
valuable of all from a social point of
view. The Prince di Galatro is not a
man of particular attractiveness in APP
pearance. He is pale faced and under
sized, with a little black mustache, and
looks generally nsignificant.-zNew York
