THE HISTORICAL NOVEL
Lyalrs Attempt TO Define Its Gradual
Evolution.

From the Westminster Gazette
The advertised title of Sir ALFRED I,vaIrs
lecture at Toynbee Hall on Saturday n,Sb,
was the Decline of Fables" but to saw
that he treated the evolution of the histori
cal novel gives a more exact idea of Sir Al
fred's brilliant and suggestive lecture. Ar
guing from his Indian experience he ex-
pressed his disbelief in the atmospherical or
allegorical theory Of mythology, and main
tanned that the fables of heroism and ad
venture were rather the echoes which had
come down to our time of the noise which
great men had made in the prehistoric age.
Indeed, the clash and conflict of these le-
gends was a more CT less true reproduction
of the wild and energetic conditions of life
existing in those bygone ages.
Then came some sort of historic inquiry.
and the outlines of famous men such as
Charlemagne were taken as true and as 10
details filed out by romance, tn each great
name became the figurehead of a whole
shipload of legends. The historic sense slow
ly prevailed, but among the ordinary peoDle
King Lear and Henry VIII were equally
historical Then came a desire for more Of
the particulars of history, and Defoe's his
torical romances, with their consciously
fraudulent accuracy and false though prob
able details, were perhaps the first EXAMPLES
of the historical romance This strafning
after details which must be unknown pro-
duced the absurd antiQuarianisn of such
works as THE Castle Of Otranto," sinking
deeper and deeper into the improbable.
The same effect is practically the result
of the magnificent though Impossible ro-
mances of Sir Walter Scott. and Of the less
important works of Bulwer Lytton and per
haps of Harrison Ainsworth. These were
succeeded by the modern historical novel
which takes historical facts and supple
ments them with probable historical imagfn-
alive incidents, task obviously only posi-
BILE for artists of the first order OF these
Thackeray's "Esmond" was a remarkable
example. and his portrait of Marlborough
almost does for that leader what the old
legends have done for Agamemnon or Tlys-
ses. George Eliots "Romola" was a great
attempt to locate the eternal story of human
love and sufferings in the Florentine society
of 300 hundred years ago. while John Ingle-
SAINT was work of consummate art, of
which it might be said that it was equally
history and historical romance

BOSS MckANE ELECTED.
The Car of Gravesend Honored by
the Board of Supervfsors

McKane, the boss of Gravesend, with
eleven indictments and a sentence of thirty
days confinement in Jail, accompanying a
fine of $3.50, hanging over his head, was yes
terday reelected president pro TEN. of the
board of supervisors of Kings county, N Y
Supervisor-at-Large Fftchie, who occupied
the chair when the meeting was called to
order, refused to recognize Supervisors Deas-
ley, Dyman and Kehoe, who were elected
from the county towns. After considerable
discussion the matter of seating these SUI
pervisors was put to vote and they were
declared to be entitled to recognition.
The choice of a president was the neat
order of business. Several names were pre-
scented, among them being that # John Y.
McKane. He was elected by vote cf Is to

was warmly applauded and was pie nted
with a big basket OF blowers. He responded

LEGALITY OF BoyCoTrINo.
An Important Decision by the Penn.
sylvanfa Supreme Court.


The state supreme court Of Pennsylvania,
through Justice Dean. handed down yes
terday a decision that boycotting is legal
George NJ. Cote. an Allegheny county
dealer in building materials, was one OF
the business men who. In May, 1891, ac-
ceded to the demands OF the striking car
penters. masons and bricklayers for the
same wages for eight hours a day that they
formerly received for nine.
He was, in consequence. boycotted by
Hugh Murphy and other members of the
Planning Mil Association of Allegheny
county and the Builders Exchange of Pitts
burg. Mr. Cote was not a member Of either
association. and he instituted suit against
his boycotters. who induced the Cleveland
and Dubois dealers to refuse to sell to him
Court No. 2 of Allegheny county gave a
decision in his favor. but from that decision
the defendants appealed, and the supreme
court has now reversed the judgment of the
lower court
The Right to Strike.
Justice Dean points out that the workmen,
though their strike and efforts to induce
others TO strike and to prevent them from
working would formerly have been consider
ed as forming a conspiracy and have been
indictable at common law. had neverthe-
less. under Pennsylvania law, according TO
the acts of 1863, 1872, 1876 and 1891, a right
to strike and to use every effort short OF
threats and force to prevent others from
working. By parity of reasoning the
justice concludes that the employers had
right to refuse TO sell supplies to con-
tractors who had acceded TO the strikers
| claims and agreed TO boycott them and TO
induce Others so to do.
He admits that the acts of assembly do
not in words embrace employers. but II en-
I n
have the right to combine 10 get an advance
in wages while employers have no right TO
combine to resist that advance in wages
In this case the plaintiff. who. directly or
vance wages, sues the members OF a COM
bination to resist that advance.
The First TO Break Away.
Labor the judge says, was the first to
break away from the common law view of
supply and demand as the only rule regu-
lating wages. and that break was soon fol-
lowed by legislation relieving workmen from
the penalties of what had been considered
for more than a century as unlawful COM
bination or conspiracy.
In the course pursued by the employers
in this case the element of an unlawful COM
| bination to restrain trade for the sake of
profit or of malice toward the plaintiff 10
lacking, and this is the essential element
on which are founded all the common law
decisions as to conspiracy tn this class of
| cases
| Hence the Judge concludes that the COM
bination of the defendants was not unlaw-
| full as il was not made to lower wages as
regulated by supply and demand, but TO re-
| sist an artihcial rate of wages made by Q
| combination which was not unlawful.
/ The case Of Thomas buchanan against
| Henry Kerr and others. appellants. was de-
| cided on the same principle, that what is
| right for the workman must be right for the
| employer.
