garrison Of leo men under Major WILLIAM
LAWRENCE. The English vessels were under the
Of Capt. PERCT. The British ships
opened a terrific ire, 10 which the Americans
responded with spirit. Capt. PERCY, however,
did not follow FARRAGUT's maxim that "the
nearer ybu get to the enemy, the harder you
can strike and did not succeed in silencing the
American guns. The British ships were severely
handled. and after the battle had been in prog
ress about an hour. the colors of the British
flagship, the Hermes, were carried away This
did not prevent the other British ships from
continuing the fight, and soon afterward the
Hermes reopened her broadside. Then a shot
cut the cable Of the British flagship, and, drift
ing bow on To the fort, she wa subjected to a
terrific rakins FIRE. Drifting down the channel,
she ran aground, where her crew set fire TO her
and pulled OF TO the other ships Of the squadron.
When another Of the British war vessels had
been crippled and thrown out of action the re-
naming ships retired. During the lombard
ment the marines and Indians who had been
landed three days before assaulted the fort on
the land side, but were repealed.

The eighteenth Year Book of the Elmira
Reformatory, which has lately appeared
from the press of that institution, Is a very
handsome volume OF nearly two hundred
pages, and in its Typography, illustration,
and binding is wholly the product OF the
labor OF prisoners. 1t contains the report
Of the Board of Managers for the year end
ing with September, 1893, together with
the reports Of Superintendent BRoCKwAY
and other officers, illustrated with we'll ex-
ecuted half-tone photo plates, and its
mechanical workmanship throughout re-
fleets the highest credit on the reformatory.
We shall not attempt to summarize the
statistical and analytical information pre-
sented in these documents with great full
ness of detail, but will merely select a few
OF the points presented to indicate the meth
DDS OF this much-d discussed institution and
the valuable results accomplished by them.
As Is now we'll understood, prisoners com
mitted to the reformatory may he detained by
the managers for the maximum term of the
statute for their offence, or they may be re-
leased conditionally or absolutely at any
time within its limit. That Is, they may
he allowed to go free subject to the author
ity OF the managers to bring them
back under their original committal,
II they violate the conditions Of their
parole, or il they show a tendency 20
revert to crime. This authority, as the
managers say, Is Indispensable TO the
effectual operation Of the reformatory
system OF the institution lying at the
very basis OF II. Yet a sensational news
paper, acting as the mouthpiece of prisoners
who had violated their parole, has stigma
tiled this exercise of this lawful authority
as the deprivation OF liberty without due
process Of law" The fact Is, that under the
law establishing the institution on the prin-
ciple Of indefinite sentences, the paroled are
as truly prisoners, subject 10 the authority
of the managers while they are at large,
as while they were confined in the reform
atory enclosure. This authority, as the
history OF the return OF the unworthy
paroled proves, has always been exercised
wisely and Justly. Happily, and as evidence
OF the successful operation of the methods
OF reforming criminals, out OF 8,723 prison
ers paroled, only 259, or 2 per cent, have
been thus far returned by arrest. Twenty
went back Of their own accord.
Another Misrepresentation has been propa-
gated from the same mischieyous source.
IL is that because the institution Is a re
formatory the climates are youthfulofenders
less incorrigible than criminals generally.
The truth Is hat they are all felons, sent
thither for high crimes and not for small
misdemeanOrs. Neither are they merely ac-
cidental criminals, nor are they all first
offenders, Nearly half of them have been
imprisoned, arrested, committed to asy-
lums' or in some way have come into
collision with the law before, They are
males Whose average axe 4 about II

Fasin's Academy Once More.

One aspect Of the Elmira Reformatory
investigation demands the prompt attention
Of the sworn officers of the law.
1t is Immediately apparent to those who
have followed the testimony that the
Worlds case against the officers of the Re
formatory consists almost entirely OF shock
ing yet absurd perjury, introduced In the
most unblushing and wholesale manner
ever before attempted in any court The
intrinsic evidence Of the manufacture is
glaring, and a very little cross-examinstion
or investigation by a prosecuting officer
cannot fail to result in legal proof OF the
perjury, and Of the payment of money for
the same by the reporters Of the World.
Who are the young men thus weaving for
themselves garments Of striped clothing :
They are the facile scamps of FAGIS's acad-
envy of crime, mouchdrds devoid Of caste or
shame, who nave done before q thousand
thievish and unclean tricks, and now, at
their masters bidding, have gene dow glee-
fully into the house Of Sodom and cozened
the details Of malice and false witness with
It's libidinous, half-crazed creatures.
What a commentary 1t woul be upon
the Worlds crusade against Mr.. BROCK
WAY IL these pupils Of the academy should
be seen one day standing with hangdog
faces before the bar of justice convicted Of
s~ubornation Of perjury, and be heard plead
ing, as 80 many wretched criminals have
been heard before them, to be sent to the

Dutch Victories in Lombok.

The Dutch have spared no energy and lost
no time in dealing with the insurrection in
Lombok. Their feet in Indian waters in
cludes an ironclad corvette, eleven gun
boats and a colonial army OF about So, 900
men, one-third OF whom are Europeans.
They little thought that the three columns
they sent into the interior Of the island to
straighten out the troubles among the peo-
pie woul be almost annihilated. They were
prepared for discomfort, but not for the
most furious and deadly hostility. In all
their long wars with the Achinese and the
Balinese they hardly sustained so severe a
defeat. II was certain, therefore, that they
would concentrate their force to vindicate
their military honor, N restore their pres
tige, as soon as possible.
The capital, Mataram, from which they
were driven, has been almost destroyed by
their bombardment and is now In their
hands. The Balines leader of the insur-
gents has deserted his followers and fed to
Bali TO hide himself among the mountains
OF his native island. IL Is likely that some
further resistance may be offered, but the
backbone OF the instruction appears to be
broken. The Dutch have shown their power,
and there Is little doubt that In a few
months Lombok will be thoroughly under
their control.
The most recent reports from Holland
throw new light upon the cause of the
trouble. IL was not the Sasak aborigines,
but their Balinese conquerors, with whom
the Dutch have had To deal. The Dutch
have reason TO remember the nine years
they spent subduing the people OF Bali,
though the long war ended forty-hve years
Ago.. Less than 10000 natives of Bali are
now living among the 400, 900 Sasaks on
Lombok, but the military and government
tai power has been in the hands of the in
vaders ever since they conquered the island.
Since 8 o several petitions have been sent
by the Sasaks asking the Government at
Batavia to relieve them from the oppression
and cruelty OF the Balinese. 1t was in an
wer to these prayers that the Dutch troops
were landed on LOmbOk in July, and, de
eeived by expressions Of friendship, were
overwhelmed in detail, while they were scat
tered in ~detachments in different parts of
the island.
As q result OF the war the Dutch will
now, doubtless, become the supreme mas
ters OF a rich and populous island, where
their influence, hitherto, has been little
more than nominal.
