Irresponsible Tale-Bearers

Is journalism to be sacred profes-
sionf asks the Literary u gest.
The priest claims the .ht to
retain secrets impaired in the con
fessional, the layer to retain those
received from h 8. clients, the doctor
those received from his patients, and
the newspaper man now puts In his
claim to preserve secret the sources
Of his information, even though a
Senate committee demand them.
This is the claim made by the
Washington correspondent of The
Press, Philadelphia and the Wash
ington correspondent of The World,
New York, when refusing the other
to disclose he names of those
furnishing information to the Senate
Committee, which they have pub.
lished about the Sugar Trusts ope-
rations in politics. Most Of the
daily papers sustain them, but Puck,
the comic j>urnal which is not all
comic, runs tilt with them as fol
lows:
"Certain of our contemporaries in
and around New York have lately
printed a great deal of dreary twad
die about the dignity that i'd
supposed TO hedge the newspaper
calling. Ole Nav York daily
asserted tina. the news.gather should
enjoy the 8 ame immunity from cross
examination as the priest fresh from
the confessional. IL is curious and
instructive f4c. that the newspaper
quickest to insist upon the dignity
of j journalism ia u paper that has
none of that desirable quality in its
makeup. 1t is the paper living
mostly upon sensationalism that is
the readiest to strike highly moral
pose and to pirate mawkshly of the
holy nature of its calling. Chase
down sits domestic or political
scandals, secured by the ingenuity
of the keyhole reporter, and eight
times out of ten you will fad nothing
substantial to warrant their publica-
ton. Talk of redress for the INJURED
parties, and you are met with the
hysterlcal assurance that the Press
is accountable to no earthly power;
that it has sort of Divine com
mission to blaoken the regulations
of such men as happen not to win
its favor. In their love for undetiled
liberty the American people have
allowed the reporter to forget.
They have even encouraged him to
believe tina. he is exempt from the
physical discomfort that ordinarily
follows criminal libel. Thu result
is that the newspaper of today
charges public official with
corruption as glibly as tells of
burglary or a studiotea. 1t has
come to understand that its charges
seldom receive any serious attention,
becaue tney are usually vague and
meaningless. But when specific
charges do happen to be made, some
fearless soul is likely to demand an
Investigation, and then the journal
list should be compelled to make his
bluff good. We have no desire to
undefvalue the power of the Press
to expose and. overthrow corrupt
officials; but the reporter is dis.
grace to his profession who makes
plain charges of dishonesty, and then
pleads the baby act when he is called
upon to help sift them"
II is worth while observing
perhaps, that the priest, the lawyer,
and the doctor do not make public
the confidential information they
have received; and that is the diff
erence between them and the
journalist,

A Leading Lady of Theatrical Cor
pany Commits suicide.

A Leading Lady of a Theatrical Com
pany Commits suicide.
SAN Francisco, Feb. 15.-May Brook
lyn, one of the leading ladies of the
Palmer Stock Company, which is play
ing at the Baldwin Theater, committed
suicide tonight by taking poison. She
played the part of Mistress Page in
Alabama"
Miss Brooklyn was found dead in her
room at the Langham Hotel at o'clock
this evening. She had taken a dose of
carbolic acid, with suicidal intent. No
cause IS known for the deed. but it is said
grief over the death of friend prompted
the actress to take her own life. She was
81 years old. a native of England, and at
one time was married to man named
Presby, from whom she obtained a di-
vorce.
LATER-It has been ascertained that the
cause of the suicide was grief over the
death of Miss Brooklyn's lover, Fred
erick A. Lovecraft. The latter, who was
Secretary of the Coney Island Jockey
Club and Manager of Palmer's New
\ York Theater, committed suicide last Oc
tober by taking carbolic acid and shoot
ing himself. Miss Brooklyn, although
able to ill her parts, is said to have been
mentally unbalanced ever since. She
initiated her lover to the extent of taking
carbolic acid, but omitted the shooting.
She had been connected with Palmer's
company ten years.
She left will, scribbled on an envelope,
leaving her clothing to Buttons" who
is supposed to be member of the COM
pany. Her money, Sl50, she directs to be
Invested for MARY" 1t is not known
who the latter is.

UNION PACIFIC RAIL WAY.
RECEIVERS OF THE ROAD GET A
DECIDED SETBACK.
Judge Caldwell Refuses to Take Up
Their Case Until They Revoke
Their Wage Order.

Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. Attorneys Thurs
ton and Corwin, representing the receiv-
ers of the Union Pacific Railroad, who
came here to ask Judge Caldwell to har-
monize the conflicting opinions of Judges
Dundy of Omaha and Hallett of Denver,
had an informal conference with him to
secure date for the hearing, and got a
decided setback.
After listening to statement of the
case Judge Caldwell said: You have
taken advantage of the employees behind
their backs. Go back to Omaha and re-
woke your wage orders; then | will take
up your case. Prepare and advertise
your schedule and give the men notice.
think sixty days might not be unreason-
able. | will come to Omaha and hold a
conference with your receivers and rep
resentativeS of the labor societies, and we
will see if we cannot agree upon sched
ule that will be Just to the employees, and
such as the receivers can afford to pay"
DUNDY's ORDERS NOT ovERRULED.
LINCOLN (Neb.l, Feb. l5.-Judge Dundy
said this evening: "Yes, I have Just been
reading the dispatches from st. Louis
detailing a little conversation between
.Judpe Caldwell and General Solicitor
Thurston. in which the latter was told TO
revoke the order recently made by the
Union Pacific receivers touching the
matter of employees wages. The i'm
preston that Judge Caldwell has over
ruled the orders of this court is wrong.
The wages question has not been brought
out before Judge Caldwell, and his some
what peremptory order to Thurston does
not in the least effect the status quo of the
wages question. MY order still stands,
and will stand until reversed.
1.-The whole situation can be expressed
in few brief sentences. The receivers
made an order reducing the wages on cer-
tain schedules. They brought the order
to me, and l approved it. There was
nothing in my approval of the order to
prevent receivers from restoring the old
wages if the saw fit to do so. They can
do so now if they choose.
"Judge Caldwelps action is unusual in
this, that in private conversation with
the General Solicitor he orders the receiv-
ers to restore the old rates. He does not
make an order in the shape of decision
announced from the bench. All Judge
Caldwell has done is to order the receiv-
ers to temporarily restore the old wages
pending settlement. His order places no
new aspect upon the situation as far as
this court is concerned. OF course ] cam
not tell what the receivers will DO in the
NATTER
suppose the receivers do not consider
Judge Caldwells decision mandatory,
and leave the wages where they are
under the schedules approved by your
self, would the employees have the right
to striker asked an Associated Press
representative.
s'Why, certainly replied Judge
Dundy, with significant twinkle in his
eye. ..Of course they have the right to
strike liz the sense that they have the
right to quit work and go home. But if
they attempt to raise row they will find
the orders of the court very much in
force, to-day's order of Judge Caldwell to
the contrary Notwithstanding"

Mrs. Marceau Wins Her Suit Against
au Insurance Company.
SAN Francisco, Feb. 15.-The Su-
preme Court has decided in favor of Mrs.
Theodore f. Marceau in her suit for Sl0,-
900 against the Travellers Insurance Com
pany. Mrs. Marceau's first husband was
John d. Fiske, a theatrical man of Fresno
County. Fiske was shot and killed
by man named Stillman, who
was convicted of murder and sem
fenced TO imprisonment tor life.
Mrs. Marceau was compelled to
sue for her husbands insurance, as pay
ment was denied on the ground that one
of the conditions was that the policy
holder should not meet his death by sin
territorial accident"
1t was claimed, however, by Mrs. Mar
ceau that the deed which deprived her
first husband of his life was not "inten-
tional,n as Stillman was insane at the
time Against this the defendant com
pany instance the fact of Stillman
being convicted OF murder, thus prov
ing. to the jurymen's minds at least,
his sanity. 1t being shown. however,
that no plea of insanity had been set up
at Stillman's trial, and that consequently
this issue was in doubt, the jury
awarded Mrs. Marceau the amount sued
for, and this Judgment was upheld on ap-
peal by the Supreme Court.
The record-union., 1894-02-16

the evening report was received from
the special committee appointed to con-
slider the silver question. The committee
reported resolution demanding the re-
opening of the United States mints for
the coinage OF silver, as they were now
open to the coinage of gold, at a ratio of
sixteen to one. The reading of the reso-
luton was the signal for tremendous ap-
plause.
After it had been agreed that a vote be
taken on the silver question tomorrow
morning, Delegate Bruner of Idaho pro-
ceeded TO address the convention on the
resolution reported by the committee.
The speaker painted dreary picture of
the industrial decline in Idaho as the re-
suit of legislation adverse 20 the silver
mining industry, and made an impas-
stoned argument for the free coinage of
the white metal.
Hugh Craig of the San Francisco
Chamber of Commerce followed with an
address in favor of the annexation OF the
Hawaiian Islands and the construction of
a Pacific cable.
Delegate Leete of Nevada also spoke in
favor of the unlimited coinage of silver.
The convention then adjourned till to-
morrow morning.
