Why the East Opposes the Law.

In conclusion, Mr.. Smith said: do you
understand now why We of the east OPP
pose this law? And is it a proper return
for the help we have given you in Kidding
yourselves of oppression to turn around
at the first opportunity and infict upon us
a law odious that we cannot hope to
make 1t seem endurable to our people? Is
extinction of the party in the north the
penalty we democrats must pay for ex-
tending aid and sympathy to you of the
south? If this entering wedge shall be
driven in until the next national campaign
resolves into a contest between the re-
publicanS and the populistS, who Will be
responsible for the sectional lines upon
which 1t will be decided? And where do
you think we democrats Of the north will
stand in such a struggle? Which way will
our interests lie?
II have tried to discuss this question
without passion or prejudice. But, sir, l
struggle does come, as 1t seems bound to
come If this beginning be made, for one
shall be found fighting for my own. Par
ty ties grow weak when they make dis
regard of ones own convictions and dis
loyalty to ones own people the test of
fealty And L do not hesitate to add that
even the misrule of the republican party
is to be preferred to the communism of
the populists and socialists. If that be
treason, then the self-appointed censors
of Minnesota do right to lay the charge at
my door But, sir, whatever may be their
judgment. God forbid that 1 should ever
betray those whom l represent in this
chamber or fail to do that which, in my
own Judgment, best conserves the inter-
ests of the democratic party and of the
American people"

The Tax Unnecessary.

He argued from the estimates of reve-

tax was unnecessary, and declared that

denied that the democratic party at the
Chicago convention had pledged itself, as
had been stated in the House, and said
"As a democrat and a member of that
convention, l repudiate any such interpre-
tation of the platform of 1892. The demo-
cratic party Is not a free trade party, and
the mere fact that an Insignificant number
of free-trade theorists have migrated
themselves upon II cannot make 1t so.

No Senate Committee Hearing to he

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-The Senate
Committee on Judiciary this morning
postponed the Peckham nomination until
Monday, and the indications are that the
postponement IL slightly unfavorable to
the nominee.
The entire time OF the Committee was
taken up In reading papers and letters
bearing on the case. Both sides seemed
somewhat afraid to come to a vote.
When there was ak of taking the
vote, Senator Hoar, who has been sup
posed to favor Peckham. announced that
he wanted time to Investigate certain
papers hat had just been put in his
hands, and II a vote was insisted upon,
at the present time, he would feel
compelled to vote against the nominee.
This was almost sure to prevent a IA
vorable report, and the friends of Peck
ham were willing that the matter should
go over.
Senator Hill remains confident that a
favorable report cannot be obtained from
The Judiciary Committee, and that the
Senate will reject the nomination. when
a vote IL reached there.
Senator Lindsay. OF Kentucky, was
favorable to the confirmation of Horn
blower. but Is reported as against Peck

"l"ROAD RESTRAINED
Not Allowed to Build a Third
Track On Ninth Avenue.
Can Still Build a Switch Between
18th and 26th Streets.
Justice %Ingraham Delivers an Impor-
tant Opinion.

Justice lngrahHm. Of tn" supreme
Court, this afternoon rendered a decision
restraining the Manhattan Elevated Rail.
road Company from building a third
track on their Ninth avenue branch, eX-
cept "A swith track between Seventeenth
and Twenty.siNth streets.
Some time ago the Elevated road be-
gan constructing a third track on their
Ninth aveue branch, from seventeenth
street northward. When the third track
had been completed as far as Twenty
second street, Corporation Counsel
Clark began an action for an Injunction
struction of the third track on the
ground that the road had not secured
the proper authority to do so.
After the action had been begun in the
courts. the Elevated road secured from
an old Commission appointed by the
a switch track between the streets
named.
In his opinion, Justice Ingrnham says.
mat II does not appear that the creation
of the new Commission in 1891 did away
with the authority OF the old Commits
sion Of 1875.
In fact he says that the law does not
seem to contemplate that the new Com

duties are more in connection with the

Justice lngraham aINs that the action

third track beyond the bounds covered

then FAILURE.
Big Robbery Said to Have Caused
Dessau's Assignment,
Black Diamonds Valued at S35, 600
Disappeared.
Andrews and Doty Dragged Down
by the Dcssau Suspension.

The sole topic among Maiden lane dia-
mond dealers to-day was the unexpected
failure of Simon Dessau, better known
as the Carbon King" which was told In
last nights Evening World"
The trade was sceptical as to the
causes assigned for the failure, and a
sensational story was circulated this af-
~ternoon. that 1t had really been precip-
itated by the theft of s35 900 worth Of
black diamonds. !
The assignee. Leon Levin, of ~ Lib
crty street, when questioned o 1t
admitted that stones approaching in
value that amount had been stolen. He
said that all but So 900 worth had been
recovered.
He said while the theft and the subse-
quent recovery of the most of the stones
had been one OF the causes that had led
up to the final collapse, that 1t had not Of
itself forced the firm to the wal.
The true facts concerning the amount
were never published. The story got out
by a telegraph despatch from st. Louis,
which stated that Simon Dessau was in
that city investigating how his travelling
salesman had been either robbed or had

At the office in this city at 4 and 6
John street the loss was at first denied.
Later it was admitted, but given out
that not over 5000 worth was stolen.
Nothing was said about the recovery of
the diamonds and the loss ceased to be
talked about.
1t now APPEARS that the amount was In
the n~eighborhood of $4,000. Taking into
account the amount admitted by the firm,
II is thought by some that the assignee
has placed n c~orrespondingly low esti-
mate on the amount recovered.
The assignee began work today on the
schedules. but refused to hazard a guess
as to what the liabilities were. as the
work has not progressed sufficiently to
; enable him TO judge.
The offices remained locked most of the
