There were 5000 ladies present, and tho
affair was magnificent upheavd OF the
time -honored Ashland district against be-
ing longer represented In congress by w.
G. p. Breckinridge. The speeches all
tcemed with scathing denunciations Of
Breckinridge, and were the most sensa-
tional yet spoken against him.
Judge Kinkead, for years neighbor Of
Breckinridge's, was exceptionally severe
In appealing for Mrs. Blackburns defense
and Breckinridge's retirement. He said:
"Breckrinridge declares his opponents are
throwing stones at him made of lies, yet
he docs not tell what lies are being told.
He has been charged with the most
hideous offenses in public, but he has not
denied them. How absurd for Colonel
Breckenridge to charge that his opponents
are lying about himP Review the long
list of crimes, admitted and proved, which
during his life made up his character.
Think for q moment Of Colonel Breckin-
ridge infiamed with virtuous indignation
by the utterasccs of lies.
"Review the life that he himself dis.
Closes picture this chosen orator
Enveloped In Cloak Of sanctity
as he appears through the long series of
years before august religious orders; see
him again in the role Of morality and
virtue as he points the true course TO the
little inmates of the female seminary, and
then follow him through nine long years
Of secret infamy, husband and fathers,
and let him conduct you as he does in
testimony from the home he should have
guarded to the brothel he should have
Stunned.
'See him In the city Of his home, and 60
with him through the disgusting details of
his own testimony in that first visit with
his cyprian to that brothel. With what
brazen forehead did he leave this place
and seek the society of his home. and of
what material is the fibre of his heart,
that, fastening through his meal, he hied
himself again TO his degrading meeting.
Hypocrisy herself would have turned pale
as she viewed the votary at her shrine. See
him again as he introduced his mistress
into the school at WHICH your little chill
dren are taught, and toward which he occu-
pied at that time the relation Of trustee"

Kavc Got Federal Authorities Tangled Up
In Governments Red Tape.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 23.-The singular
International complications involving the
liberty Of General Ezeta and his fellow
refugces, which have been so prolific In opera
oouffe sensations, developed new tinge Of
conflicting authority yesterday. Warrants
were finally issued for the arrest OF the
refugees, but they could not be served.
United States Marshal Baldwin, armed
with the authority of the federal courts,
Set out To have the refugees brought
within the Jurisdiction of the law, but he
rnn up against Captain Hawaison. COM
manding Mose island navy yard, who de
clared he had no legal authority TO fur
pish transportation for the marshal and
he refused to place that official on board
che Bennington. Without the assistance OF
che navy department, the marshal could
not reach the gunboat. The law allows
the marshal but e. for serving each war
Pant, and under this compensation he
sould not afford to hire tugboat.
Furthermore, Captain Thomas Of the
Bennington, has strict orders to receive no
ore on board his ship but accredited
naval officers from Mare island. Under
these conditions, the United States mar
shal must have the assistance Of the naval
authorities. II he shall ever arrest the sul-
Drits of whom he Is In pursuit.

SNEAK THIEF CAUGHT.
Mr. Gibson of New York Has His
Pockets Full of Nfckels.

George Wilson Gibson, twenty-five
years old of No. 81 Fourth street, New
York was arrested yesterday afternoon
at C~ommunipaw and West Side avenues
by Sanitary officer Miller; this morning
he was arraigned before Justice Doug
lass in the C~ommunipaw Avenue Court
and was committed in default of $1,000
bail and later was taken to Police Head
quarters to have his picture taken.
HI police think that Gibson is the
man who has been doing most of the
sneak thieving which has been worrying
them of late. Miller was standing at
C~ommunipaw and Monticello emu
when a man rushed up to him and told
him that there was some sort of a row
at West Sid and Communipaw avenues.
Miller hurried to the Fourth precinct
police station and securing the patrol
wagon and Patrolman Judge went to
the scene of what he supposed was a
row. He found saloon keeper Timmers,
whose place is at that corner, in q state
of great excitement. He said there was
a man in his room above the saloon.
Miller searched the rooms and found the
clothes closet. He put handouts on him.
Gibson said he had done nothing but had
merely called to see the servant girl.
It found on examination that he had
gone through a washstand drawer In
which was a check book, several checks
and $35 in five cent pieces. His pockets
were full of matches.
1t was learned on sending to New York
that he is a well known crook.

fringe, and with it are sold a high colla1
and a long pair Of cuffs, which can be but
toned on over the dress collar and sleeves.
1t Is certain that beaver and astrakhan
will be the favorite furs this winter. Skirts
will continue to be very wide around the
hem, though the fit to the figure above is
still regarded as one of the most Important
points of a smart toilet. Some dressmak-
ers still use a stiff lining in order to make
the folds stand out wal from the feet at
the back. The new skirts with plaits down
the sides are VOL suited to redundant
figures, for, though thoy add to the guam
tity of material On tho hips, the spreading
oft the plaits Immediately below them de-
tracts from the effect of stoutness.
Astrakhan cloth of heavy quality is sell
ing at between SO and 81 q yard. 1t is SO
inches wide and therefore ''cuts TO advan-
tage, " as dressmakers say, a little of it 60
ing a great way. 1t will be much used for
capes and Elton jackets this winter.
The round waist doe not diminish in
favor, although long ~redingotes have been
announced for the winter and are seen
among the latest importations. They are
tight fitting and reach nearly to the feet.
This long style of garment over a skirt of
the present dimensions promises to be
rather b~urdenseme.
An illustration is given of a gown Of
mastio wool. The skirt is plain in front,
but pulled at tho sides under pocket flaps.
The Elton jacket opens over a plastron and
has rovers of white cloth. The full sleeves
are gathered into white cloth cuffs, and
white horn buttons decorate the gown.

NOT ROMANO THE MURDERER.

An Italian, answering somewhat to the
description of the murderer Vitro Ro-
mano, who killed his wife at their home,
No. 29s Mott street, New York, on Sep
TENDER q, and subsequently escaped to
Hoboken, was taken prisoner this morn
ing by Detective Quinn of Hoboken Police
Headquarters, and held until a New York
detective came over. The prisoner said
he was Michael Romano, not Vitro, but
he had the scar on his nose, the broken
thumb and the same stubby moustache
as the murderer lad
Policeman Miller of the Eldridge street
station, New York, who knows the muir
derer well, swore positively, however.
that the man was not he and the prison.
er was released.
Detective Quinn received word the other
day that the murderer was stopping at
Monaco's saloon, at Fourth and Madi-
son streets, Hoboken, hiding, and would
leave as soon as possible on a steamer
for Italy. The detective lost no time in
spotting his man and the arrest of
Michael Romano was the result. He was
taken coming down the steps, bidding his
friends goodbye, previous to sailing on
the Crown Prince, which leaves today.
When discharged he was ~overjoyed and
hurried away to the steamer.

THEY WAS FIANsHED'.
That Was the Reason ConShlin Took
Nellie HOYtss Ring.

Lawrence Coughlin, a tough-looking
gentleman from the purlieus of Morgan
street, was tried this morning in the
Court of General Sessions on two in
dictmerts. One charged him witt steal
ing $3.50 from Miss Nellie Hoyt, also of
Morgan street, and the other with as
saulting her.
Nellie, a pert young miss, swore that
Coughlin snatched her pocketbook con
tanning the money and ran away. A few
days later he met her in the street, and
struck her because she had complained
to the police about. the loss of the money.
What have you to say?" asked Mr..

quid of tobacco, smiled on the jury, and
began
