The castor tramp" is again person of
great interest in New York society. When
he sneaked into the Astor mansion and
went to bed with all of his rags and his
shoes on, he was about as near the ideal
tramp as could be imagined. 1t is whis-
pered in the club now, however that he
is not tramp at all. and never was, but
is shrewd detective, who en-
tered the mansion in search of
some papers needed by Coleman
Drayton in the Drayton-Astor divorce
case. This is said to have been discov-
cred by John Jacob Astor and to account
for his remarkable determination to send
the tramp to prison for a long term. 1t
is further alleged that the tramp-detec-
tive actually secured the papers he was in
search of and tossed them out of a win
dow to a confederate. The "Astor tramp"
seems destined to become a stage hero.
Material for melodrama continues to
accumulate.

A Modern Blue Boards oovernme,

a Modern Blue Boards Government.
The French expedition against the Hovas
in Madagascar has attracted compare
lively little attention in this country.
probably for the reason that we have
something so much bigger in the way of
foreign wars, in the Chinese-Japanese
war, to discuss. Nevertheless, the conflict
in Madagascar promises to be a serious
and fierce one, and an event out of which
may grow complications that will effect
the whole of Europe. inasmuch as Great
Britain has large trade interests in the
island.
In the current number of the Chautau-
guam magazine there is an article on the
island and its people which gives some de-
tails that are interesting and peculiar.
The Hovas, who rule the island are of
Malay descent. and Malay characteristics
are prominent among them. They number
about 100000 people, and rule 1900, coo
more; which shows the population of Mad
agascar to be quite large. Notwithstanding
they are Asiatics, the Hovas are Protest
ant Christian people. Professionalism be-
came the state religion in 1868, and spread
rapidly among the people.
One of the queerest things about the
government is that the royal succession
descends through the female line, and the
queens husband is always the prime min
ister-he is not the prince consort, and
cannot attain to royalty except through a
revolution. The prime minister, however,
is the real source of authority. He runs
the whole government. The queen is
merely an ornament. In the case of the
present prime minister. he is a regular
Blue Beard except that it is not charged
that he murdered his wives. The present
queen is his third wife, her two sisters.
formerly queens, having been his first and
second wives. His name is Rainiliari.
vony-a kind of exercise in vowels for the
tongue-and he is said to be a man OF
ability, and of reasonable honesty in the
midst of official corruption
The fact that the Hovas have adopted
Professionalism as a state religion has led
to one of the particulars of disagreement
between their government and the French.
France demands, under treaty, equal
rights in the island for Catholics, which it
is said the Hovas refuse France also
claims certain authority in directing the
foreign policy of Madagascar, which the
Hovas deny

Not a Clear Field.

II Representative Reed thought he was
going to have a clear field for the speak
ershiD Of the next House he has had rea-
son 10 change his mind within the last
Few days. About his popularity within
his party there is no doubt. but there are
other leading republicans who are also
popular with those who are Of the same
polu ,cal faith. Gov. Mckinley and ex-
President Harrison both have strong
friends who are seeking to advance their
respective interests in the contest for the
republican presidential nomination.
quite number Of western congressman
elect have let it be known that they will
not support Mr.. Reed for speaker.
They have no especial objec-
ton 10 him. but they be-
heve that he would so use his power, If
he were elected speaker. as TO advance
his interests as a candidate for the repub-
hcan presidential nomination. They don't
want him as their presidential candidate.
They want western man. The most Of
them think that Maj. Mckinley would
come nearer to leading the Republican
party TO victory than any other man.
Hence they have already begun a fight
against Mr.. Reed.
1t might be better for Mr.. Reeds presi-
dental aspirations to keep out Of the
speakers chair. In that position it will
be difficult for him to avoid making enc
miles, However he has the greatest pos
sible confidence in his ability to steer clear
of dangerous shoals and rocks
If the western republicans should com
bine against him they could prevent him
probably from reaching the speakers
chair There have been elected TO the
next congress 1S1 republicans from the
west and only ia from the east.
If Mr.. Reed should be a candidate for
speaker and should be defeated, the de-
feat would be a serious blow to his presi-
dental prospects. 1t would be said that
if the west is against him it would be I'M
wise to nominate him.
The interest which is taken in the speak
ership contest so long before the choice
for speaker is to be made shows that
the next presidential contest is already an
important factor in national politics. It
can be pretty safely asserted that Mr..
Reed win he chosen speaker, but it cannot
be asserted with any degree of certainty
that he will be nominated by his party
for President.

The labor convention which began its
session at Denver yesterday is one of
considerable Importance, inasmuch as it
WILL consider-and probably condemn
the method of social reform recently prac-
ticed with such bad results to the laboring
classes by Mr.. Debs at Chicago. The
meeting will also discuss politics to some
extent, as bearing upon the reforms con-
templated by the labor unions The con-
Vention is attended by John Burns, the
labor member of parliament, who has
won measure of notoriety by his ac-
tivity in labor union circles. One matter
that viii probably cause a row in the
meeting is the question of color in labor
unions. At the last convention of the fed
Grafton of labor the constitution was
amended to read that only white" men
should be eligible to membership. An
effort will be made to have the word
white" stricken out wherever it occurs
In the constitution. Certain delegates from
Pennsylvania, Iowa, Ohio and West vir-
ginia will make a vigorous fight AGAINST
the proposed change.

Our dispatches a day or two ago con-
tanned the information that the cotton
mills at FAN River, Mass. are buying up
large supplies of cotton. and that the rail-
road yards at that city are crowded with
cotton freights. The opinion is that the
mills have bought and will buy at the pre-
vailing low prices a supply of cotton to
last them for year. 1t is probable that
mills elsewhere are following the same
general plan They evidently calculate
upon a smaller crop and higher prices next
year. Cotton growers should bear in mind
the fact that if the Fall River and other
mills buy now the cotton they will need
next year, the demand for the next crop
will be correspondingly curtailed. Having
a great stock on hand, the mill men will
hold stiff upper lip" and will not enter
the market to purchase unless the price
goes to figure that will warrant them in
buying and holding for the year succeed
ing. The proper course for the producers
to pursue, under such circumstances, is to
make the next crop surprisingly small in
its proportions. The supply is altogether
too far ahead of the demand.

ME E. Woolston is again swinging around

wrecked and abandoned off Cape Hatteras
IN october, 1891, and ever since that time
has been floating around with wind and
tide. getting in the way of live" vessels
and defying the few attempts that have
been made to burn her or destroy her
with dynamite. 1t is estimated that this
derelict has drifted 1900 miles. When the

The gallows has been abolished in Mich
igan. The severest punishment that can
be inflicted upon a murderer in that state
Is Imprisonment for life. From oct. Is
to Nov. 30, there were eight murders and
probably half dozen murderous assaults
committed in the state. These facts will
be brought before the coming legislature
In an argument favoring the re-enact-
ment Of the old law carrying the death
penalty. In most Of the states which
have the gallows a great Improvement
might be made by curtailing the pardon
ing power of the governor and hanging
more murderers.

Congressman Jerry Simpson, who has
been sick long time, has got back to
Washington and is telling the newspaper
men of the visions he has been seeing. He
says he saw in the returns of the last cleo

strength. 1.-TWO years ago. said he, I'VE
polled in round numbers, 100000 votes.
Our aggregate strength at the last cleo
ton was 100000 an increase of rs per

as his arithmetic, which in it's turn is about
as reliable as his financial schemes.

FORCING The ISSUE.
Conservative Papers Try to Drive
Rosebery to the Country.
Making Up the Premier's Words to
the House OF Lords.
He Said England Must BE Convinced
of the Justice of Home Rule.
H3v Asscci-.sd Press,

LONDON, March 13.-Lord Rosebery's
statement that England must be con-
vnced OF the justice of Irish Home
Rule, while causing great excitement in
both sections Of the Irish Parliamentary
party, is hailed with delight by
the Conservative papers, which seem to
regard 1t as a settled fact that Home
Rule will be indefinitely shunted.
Lord Rosebery's exact language in the
House of Lords yesterday evening was
as follows:
Lord Salisbury made one remark
on the subject OF Home Rule. with
which l confess myself in entire accord.
He said that before Irish Home Rule
could be conceded by the Imperial Par
Lament. England. as the predominant
member OF the partnership of the Three
Kingdoms, must be convinced of its
justice. That may seem to be a con-
siderable admission. because your Lord
ships well know that the majority of
English members elected in England
proper are hostile to Home Rule"
The Parnellites openly denounce the
attitude of Lord Rosebery and there Is
much soreness among the members of
the McCarthyite section of the Irish
Parliamentary party.
The Globe this afternoon says that It
Is not surprised to learn that there is a
grievous searching Of conscience among
the McCarthytes, who, according to
the same paper, will doubtless strain
every nerve to provide an excuse. Con-
tinuing. the Globe says:
But there is not one among them who
does not see that Lord Rosebery has
practically overthrown Home Rule"
All the Conservative afternoon papers
express similar views. and the general
opinion is that a general election is
near.
The Independent says that 1t is clar
from Lord Rosebery's speech that Home
Rule Is indefinitely shelved, and that Ire.
land has been invited by the Liberal
Government to assent to that act Of
treachery."
Continuing, The Independent remarks
THE plain truth is that Ireland has
been bought off and sold"

BALAR|N|'s BIG SHANGHAI.
His Clarion Grow Makes Life a
Burden to the Neighbors.
An Unappreciative Person Complains
to the Board OF Health.

A big Shanghai rooster AT l27 South
Fifth avenue is the object OF some un-
appreciative persons dislike. and. in
consequence. has also incurred the Of
ficial enmity Of the Health Department.
Inc roos .er, utterly regardless OF the
etiquette OF how and -;hen to crow. ac-
cording to a complaint filed with the
Health Board has the habit OF liftinS

The Shanghai is owned by an aged
blind man named John Balarin, who.
with his wife ana several grown-up
children. ives on the top floor of the
three-story house at the number desig-
mated.
A postal card was received at the
Health Board office yesterday. but the
name of the writer does not appear
nor could It be obtained in the neighbor-
hood where the nuisance is alleged to
exist. The complainant writes that he
cannot sleep by night, and his brain is
made weary by day with the continuous

There they remain d as long as the
household could stand the splitting

were again banished to the roof.
While on the latter elevation the
