Addressed by Henry George and Other

New York, July 12.-The labor demonstra-

tic, thirty-five years Old Fred Max Toepfer,
was arrested at the instance of United
States Marshal COlesberry in this city to-
day for having written threatening letters
to both President and Mrs. Cleveland. AT
the Central station the prisoner admitted
that ne had written four or five such let
tiers. At first he said he applied for en-
ployment at the white house.
Then failing in that he wrote the presi-
dent that he proposed to relieve him of
his job" and act president himself. The
discovery of these writings came not from
the executive mansion or Gray Gables, but
from DR.. Bloomer, chief physician of the
state asylum for the insane at Utica, N.

he had done and proposed to do. Toepfar

ERAsTUs wIMAN's CASE.
Judge barrett Grants IA Certificate of
Reasonable Doubt.

New York, July 12-Judge Barrett, of
the supreme court. this morning granted q
certificate of reasonable doubt in the case
of Erastus Wiman. who recently con-
victed in the court of oyer and terminer,
before Judge Ingraham, of forgery for
having forged the name of 7. Bullnger as
endorser of a check for $4,000 made by r.
C. Dun &c Co. and payable to Bullinger' $
order. The question submitted to the jury
was whether Wiman endorsed the name of
Bullinger upon the chack with intent to
defraud Dun or his partners. Judge Bar
rett says that all question as to whether
Bullinger upon the check with intent to
defraud Bullinger or to defraud Wiman's
own bank, were substantially excluded
from the consideration of the jury. Under
the certificate which is granted by Judge
Barrett an application will undoubtedly
be made for the release of Wiman on BAIL
pending an appeal and its decision by the
general term of the supreme court.

he Fad This Scheme Then in His
Mind.


Chicago, July IA gentleman who was
fellow patient at Dwight with Debs and
who took. the Kelley cure for drunkenness
at the same time says the agitator used
to brag much to mis- fellow patients of what
he was going to do some day for the work
ingmen of the country.
Debs graduated at the gold cure institute
March 10, 1892, but he has fallen from grace,
like many another Kelley graduate. This
fellow patient says:
'Debs, when in his cups or when talking
confidentialy to his fellow patients at
Dwight, has never made any secret of his
ambitions, which Were not to win for any
one class of Workinemen or for working
men as WhoIe any especial scale Of wages
or any particular kind of treatment from
their employers, but simply to put the
working classes in control of the govern
ment Of the country. This, of course, mas
been the scarcely-veiled object of the pres
ent strike. 1t has not been a strike Of
any given orders or classes Of employees
against certain number of employing
corporations; it has been a strike of the
lawless elements against constituted so
ciety-a revolt of anarchy against law. It
is not difficult to see how q Uan-and es-
pecially a man whose mental vision was
distorted by Drunkenness might dream
movement under the right conditions.
Where Debs's line of thought seems to have
sanity is in his ridiculous mlscalCula ton of
means to ends, his amazing misunderstand-
ing of what Were right conditions, and
his incredible folly IL believing that on
such a preteXt that on which the pres
ent strikes were inaugurated he could win
any reasonable measure of the sympathy
of the large neutral mass of the public.
without whose sympathy success in any
revolutionary movement is hopeless.
81 have already commented upon what
has seemed the astonishing slowness of
the daily press of the country at large to
understand the drift of the disturbances
which have been in progress for so long in
no 1nt oil
pretense of cOncea lment was thrown aside
and the strike appeared frankly as what it
was-an attempt at revoluton--that the
daily press in general saw fit to treat it
serOuslv."

THE BOYCOTT STILL ON.
College Point and Flushing Youths at War
Over the Young Women

COLLEGE POINT, Sept. 1.-The boy
colt started by the girls here against
the home boys is still on, and Flushing
lads are making the most of the evident
favor~with which they are being received
by the College Point girls.
The young women here have organized
bowling club, and as soon as they
have had little more pra ,tice they will
invite the Flushing boys over to try
issues with them on the alleys. The
College Point lads will be ignored in the
games: The girls will go to Flushing
and play return games.
The result of the boycott has been to
increase the receipts of the trolley car
line running between the two cities. A
few nights ago "A trolley car, on which
were many Flushing youths. was passing
group of College Pointers, when the
visitors commenced singing 1.-THE Girl ]
Left Behind Me-" There were some hard
threats and few stones hurled at the
car.
The same evening Flushing youth,
who had boarded a waiting car at the
ferry received stunning blow in the
back of the head, delivered by a College
Point man, who had run up beside the
car. After hitting his man the lad ran
away with haunting remark about
Flushing chappies.
