New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1894-05-01

There is nothing to awaken surprise in the
report that prominent Democrats in this city
and State have been holding conferences to de-
wise ways and means for bringing pressure to
bear on Governor Flower to induce him to with
hold his approval from the reform measures
affecting New-York which the Legislature left
for his consideration. The motives behind this
movement are easy TO fathom. The measures
in question cut off Tammany patronage and
perqusiteS and Of course touch Tammany in
a sensitive spot. Unfortunately, ii is hardly TO
be expected that Mr.. Flower will regard the
public interests as more vital and important
than the interests of the politicians from whose
favor he expects much.

Mr.. Pullman's Compromise.

The architect of Pullman was W. W.
Beman. Ho was justly proud of his worl,
and justifiably anxious to be identified witt
1t in the memory Of postority. So one day,
soon after tho town was completed, hC
came to the proprietor and said:
"Mr. Pullman, if you haven't decided
on any name for the new town, what dc
you think of calling 1t 'Beman, from the
man who designed it?'
"Um-m." said the magnate. Fact is,
1 had thought of calling the place Pull
man, from the man who built 1t and paid
for it,
However. Mr.. Pullman added as he
observed a look of disappointment on the
architects face, "howcver, I'm not par
ticular. Now, what do you say to a com
promise9 Suppose we take the first syl
liable of my name, Pull, and the second
syllable of your name, man. There we
have it, Pull, 'man'-'Pullman' You
see, that combines your idea with mine "
Mr.. Pullman's suggestion prevailed, and
the name 1t seems, is compromise. -

FALL RIVER SITUATION.

Settlement.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Sept. 2l.-Prin'
cloths went off Lilo of a cent yard. this
afternoon, and are now quiet at l5-lG
cents for G4x64s. The falling off in price
is due, no doubt. to the very light demand
and the feeling that goods were quoted at a
fictitious value for few days past. The
sales for the week have not been as large
as usual, and probably will not exceed
Is, 900 pieces.
brokers report very light demand for
goods in the New York market and while
this condition lasts the manufacturers will
refuse to resume operations under the old
scale of wages. One of the largest holders
of mill stocks in this city suggests the fol-
lowing remedy for the present condition
of affairs Induce the leaders of the
operatives to urge them to return to
work under the reduction. If the mill
men open the gates let all the help return.
1t will not be incumbent on the operatives
to remain at work one week or two weeks.
At the end of that time, whatever the price
of goods may be, they can demand restor-
alton of wages in some mills, which, by
starting will be relieved from the odious
agreement that cannot be broken honora-
bly,. They will then be at liberty to do as
they please and will certainly continue to
run and pay old wages, rather than allow
the mills to remain idle.

A GLIMPSE OF NOVA SCOTIA.
Che Country Is Beautiful, People Are Cour.
tcous, and Board Is Cheap.

A good deal has been written and said
abou, the politeness with which travellers
arc treated while journcying through GER
tain European countries. But it is not
necessary to go so far from home to meet
with people who find time not only to
treat strangers with politeness and affa-
biiity, but who observe the practice in
their daily intercourse with one another.
A traveller through Nova Scotia and the
provinces is impressed at the outset with
the idea that the natives fully understand
what is meant by hospitality, and what Is
moro to the point, know how to make q
happy use of their knowledge Their po-
liteness, to be sure, is not of the polished
French kind, but 1t is none the less grace
full, because it Is of tho good old fashioned
sort. The following is only one illUstra-
iton of many Others that could be told Of
them: A party of Brooklynitcs while jog
ging along Il country road was oyertaken
by man who was driving his horse at 4
furious rate. As no turned out of the road
in order to poss ahead lie pulled up his
horse with some difficulty and apologizcd
for passing, explaining that he was anx-
iouS to overtako a man who was q quar-
ter of II mile ahead. Thcp-be rushed on.
This may seem q little far fetched, but it
Is the parctico in Nova Scotia. 1t may be
remarked that in an extended journey
this was the only person who was met that
seemed to be In the least bit of hurry
The people there manifested decided in
clination to take things easy. In village
of 800, at the ringing of the village bell at
II O'Clock, every store in town Is closed
fer one hour, whilc the proprietors go
home for dinner The same thing occurs
again ut 6 O'Clock, business everywhere
being suspended for one hour. They think
that an hour for each meal is none too
much. 1t may be only % coincidence that
while many patent medicines wcro advcr-
tiscd conspicuously no remedy for indiges-
ton was brought to ones attention. 1t is
somewhat u matter of surprise to find in
each small village q Salvation Army in full
force, bass drum, barracks and all. One is
apt TO wonder where they got their con-
verts, for tho churches arc numerous and
always well attended.
Taking into consideration tho good
roads for driving, the beautiful scenery
tho first class coaches and good railroad
service, n journey through Nova Scotia is
sure to be satisfactory. There are four
water routcs-onc direct from Brooklyn
by the steamers Portia and Servia. The

AMBASSADOR BAYARD's RETURN.
II Is Rumored That He Will again Become
Active in Political Work.

WAsnINGToN, Sept. 1.-The return of
Ambassador Bayard at this time has caused
the revival of the talk of his retirement
from the diplomatic service and his entrance
into active politics again. He comes home
just when the fight is most active in his own
state for the election of Senator, and
although it is said he returns to help Secre-
tary Gresham in some diplomatic matters,
it is limited that he will spend the most of
his time in Delaware, and will take an
active interest in the campaign.
1t is asserted that he is looking ahead
and that he sees many an obstruction in the
way of Democratic success two years
hence, and, consequently, is willing to
retire from diplomacy if he can again
secure his old seat in the Senate.

BLOODY DIRK
In Hands of Congressman
Breckinridge's Son.
The Young Mailman Attempts to Run
Amuck With Old Friends.
He Calls Judge Liar and Slabs Another
Man.

LExrSGTox, KY, Sept. 21.-Deshs
Breckinridge, son Of Congressman w. c. T.
Breckenridge, stabbed J. ID. Livingston and
attacked Judge George B. Kinkhead, thi:
afternoon, wounding him seriously. The
fight grew out of the late Democratic pr1
mary. Great excitement prevails here, and
trouble is expected.
The wordy war with Judge George b.
Kinkead occurred earlier in the day, and
the men separated, ostensibly for the pur-
pose of arming themselves. The Living
stone episode, however, prevented the
meeting of the well-known antago-
nists. Mathew Lane came from
Mt. Sterling this morning, and he
and Dpsha Breckenridge went in search
of the Owens men who denounced Col.
Breckenridge during the recent campaign.
They met Judge Klnkead about 5, this after
noon, in front of the Breckenridge head
quarters.
He was halted by the two and young Brock
inridge said THE election is over now
and want to tell you you are id liar
and coward" Judge Kiukead replied he
was not armed. Mr.. Breckenridge cut the
interview short by saying he would give him
all the time he wanted to arm himself. Kin
kead walked towards his home and Brock
inrdge and Lane proceeded to the PhGnix
hotel. There they saw James Duane Liv-
ingstone, financial manager for J. Kennedy
Tod, owner Of the Kentucky Union Rail
road, who has been strong Owens man.
Livingstone was leaning against the news
and cigar stand when Desha approached
and asked for package of cigarettes. Liv-
ingstone noticed Desha, extended his hand,
and said "Desha, election is over; we
should be friends" Young Breckenridge
replied, "You are a one horse scoundrel
and will not take your hand"
Livingstone asked him what he meant,
Desha explained he thought HIM two-faced.
Livingstone said he had been a constant
Owens man, and never professed anything
else. Desha said You are damned
liar" At this, Livingstone struck him
knocking bis glasses off and
staggering him. In an instant Desha
flashed large dirk knife, aiming it at Liv'
ngstone's heart, and made 3 lunge for his
old-time friend. Livingstone threw up his
hand and the knife pierced it, inflicting a
serious wound. Livingstone then got Out
