It is said that drowning men grasp
at straws. IT snust be that the Repub-
hcans are drowning and realize the
fact judging from the weapons they
are beginning to use Most disrepu-
table circulars about Mr. Rawlins are
sent around, circulars whose only point
is falsehood and attempts at character
assassination. If the Republicans have
decided TO make their last fight in the
campaign on character, the Democrats
are willing TO accept the issue Let
them throw down the gage; it will be
taken UP Immediately.

AN OUTRAGE on HUMAN RIGHTS.

The investigations of the Lexow
committee have brought many dis
graceful things to light in the New
York police department, but it las
brought to light no greater Outrage
than that perpetrated on a Mrs. Ur-
chittel. The case is this:
Mrs. Urchittel was arrested some
months ago by the ward men on the
false charge of keeping 4 lisorderly
house. This charge, a trumped up one,
was made against her by the ward men
because she refused to pay them black
mail. She was convicted of the charge
on perjured testimony, and fined This
was bad, but not the worst. She had
two little children, and having been
convicted OF keeping a disorderly house
they were taken from her. They were
sent to the Gerry society, and later
they were transferred to the Hebrew
Sheltering society. They have just
been restored to her by John w. Golf
in the presence of the LeXow commit
tee.
No Sicilian bandit, no Algerine pirate,
no buccaneer was ever guilty of
crueller thing, Human nature revolts
at the very thought of the enor1nity
and heartlessness of the crime. a
mothers children torn from her be-
cause she refused to pay blacllmail to
a set of deep-dyed villains and scoun-
drels! II there is any law by which
the wretches who perpetrated this out
rage can be punished they should be-
They are disgrace to society and are
not fit to even associate with the can
nihals Of the Upper Congo.
This IS the greatest disgrace ever
brought on New York City. the me-
tropolis of the United States of Amer
lea.

The revival of business, which set in as
soon as the conditions of trade became
settled, is watched with all the more con-
fidence for the reason that It's progress IS
steady and has none OF the feverishness of
a boom In those general features which
indicate an upward movement. such as
an advance each week; and while the to-
tails do not yet reach those of two years
ago. when the great speculative move
nents were rushing along to, their col
lapse they go steadily upward.
In special instances, such as that of a
forced auction sale OF large invoice of
ribbons in New York last week, when the
purchases were made by retailers over the
lacking of an increased demand coming
directly from the people. Indeed, one has
only to look about him to see such
movement of local trade as to satisfy any
intelligent observer of the fact of re-
vival in progress.-Boston Post.
The heavy reduction of the duty on tin
plate, instead of havirg. the effect to
been so often told it unquestionably
would, appears to be working up boom
for it, at the American and not the Welsh
end of the line. Saturday was the day
set for breaking ground at New Kensing-
toll, Pa, near Pittsburg, for the largest
tin plate works yet projeced in the United
states, to cover about ten acres on the
Allegheny river front. At the head of
Lowenberg- & Co., of Portland, Ore, and
New York and the plant is to be operated
as a union mill, employing hundreds of
workmen. and with capacity for an out
put of sixty tons of plate day. The
cost of the works will be about 100000.
The Philadelphia Record, referring to
this important undertaking. says:
1t Will not be a washery; 1t will make
capitalists to put their money into tin
Plate establishments Notwithstanding the
reduction Of so per cent in the duty is
a sore subject for protectionist orators

The confidence which is here exhibited
in the ability of American tin plate manu-
facturers to successfully compete with
all outside competition is OF no little

evidence that the alleged necessity for
high rates of protection on tin plate does
tunate in escaping the creation of another

The Democrats enacted the income tax

THE BODY IN THE BROOK.
A Missing Man who Left a Book Behind
Him Containing the Names of Maine
People.

Georgetown, Mass, March 1S.-There
is new clue to the identity of the muir
dered man found in the brook March l.
Officer Hull visited Boxford today and
learned from George Nelson that per-
son answering the description of the
murdered man worked and boarded with
him during December and January and
left his house about February l. While
there he said repeatedly that he was in
trouble over some woman and was want
ed in Lynn as witness in the trial of
the murder of woman named Robin
son. Upon leaving, he told Mr.. Mason
that the next he would hear from him,
he would find him dead with his feet
tied together. The man gave the name
of John Mckay, SIS years old, member
of the 18th Regiment, U.S.A. He was
about six feet tall and weighed 175
pounds. Officer Hull has in his posses
sion pass book left at Mr.. Nason's by
Mckay with the following names witten
in it by him while there: Edgar Weeks,
Dover, N. H.; Willie and Carrie Price,

M'KANE STILL AT WORK.
Legal Proceedings So Far Have Failed
to Change His Condition.

New York, March 17.-This forenoon,
the citation in the case of John Y. Nc
Kane against Warden Durston of Sing
Sing prison, on appeal from the United
States Circuit Court to the United States
Supreme Court for writ of habeas cor
pus, was served on Warden Durston at
Sing Sing prison, and on Clarence W..
Francis, deputy attorney general of the
State of New York, at his office in this
city.
McKane's attorneys hold that Nc
Kane's status, now that the citation is
served, is that of guest at the state
prison rather than that of convict. AT
the same time, however, McKane contin-
ues in prison, and only mandate OF the
United States Supreme Court will affect
his actual relations with life behind the
bars.
Warden Durston says the papers served
on him will not in any way affect Nc
Kane's standing in the prison, and the
ex-boss will continue at work with the
other convicts.

SUICIDE OR MURDER?
A Young Woman Found Dead in New
York Office.

New York, March 1s.-At six O'Clock
last evening Miss Martha j. Fuller, a
pretty stenographer and typewriter, in
the Office of VIM. M. Mullen, on the
second floor of ia Nassau street, was
found lying on the floor of the Office
with two bullet holes in her head. A
revolver was lying on a desk which a
few moments before she had closed pre-
paratory to going home. An ambulance
was summoned, but she died in half an
hour. Mullen's clerk, Joseph L. Magee,
said the woman was alone in the room
when she shot herself. He could give no
reason for the act. Miss Fuller, he said
had been in the best of spirits all day, SO
far as he could judge, and had no
trouble that he was aware of. He said
the revolver the woman shot herself with
belonged to him that he always kept it
in his desk and it was never Loaded.
Magee was taken to the station house
where he was placed under arrest. He
was brought into the Tombs police court
today ana q specific charge OF murder
made against him. Justice Martin re-
manded him, awaiting action by the
coroner. Magee showed signs of great
distress. Deputy Coroner Donlin who
made an examination of Miss Fuller's
body this afternoon, is inclined to think
that the wound was self-infiicted not
withstanding the fact the flesh was not
powder burned. DR.. Donlin says the
muzzle of the weapon was held close to
the left temple. The police still consider
the case suspicious.

Impartial Dealing with the Press.

The last time Bart Scott was in Wash
ington he told good story about mem
ber of the Wisconsin legislature. The old
man was elected to the state senate from
one of the lumber counties and was proud
of the honor. When the legislature met in
Madison, Senator Blank was daily in his
seat before the time for calling the senate
to order and spread the Madison Journal
before him to read the news of the day.
One morning after the chaplain's prayer,
while the clerk of the senate was reading
the journal of the proceedings of the pre-
vious day, gentleman arose and said,
"Mr. President, move to dispense with
thereading of the journal. y Senator Blank
quietly folded his Madison Journal, arose
and said: ''Mr. President, l move also to
dispense with the reading of The Times,
The Inter Ocean and all other papers.
There should be no distinction against The
Journal. Philadelphia Times.

sUFFocATlNG IN A PIPE.
The Hard Plight of Three Riggers at
Work in a Reservoir.

Attleboro, Mass, March 1S.-In the
large water tower on Capron's Hill today
George Wilcox, Patrick Scully and Chas.
Scott, riggers, connected with the firm of
G. T. Berry &c Co., of Dover, N. H., mar
rowly escaped suffocation from the
fumes of asphalt and benzine. The men
were engaged in painting the interior of
the tank and were on a raft 110 feet
from the top, and Is feet from the man
hole at the bottom. The ingredients
used in the preparation with which the
interior is coated, are of a poisonous ma
ture. The raft upon which the men
stood was built at the top of the stand
pipe, and by letting the water escape the
men were lowered to the place where the
work was to be DONE When the water
was Is feet deep, the outlet was closed
and the men began to mix the paint. At
noon. Wilcox became semi-unconscious,
and Scully and Scott felt peculier SEN
sation. Scott called to the watch at the
top of the tank, and the watchman has
tened for assistance. By this time all
three men were more or less overcome.
The outlet was opened and all the water
in the tank allowed to run to waste. The
manhole at the base of the tank was re-
moved, and through this opening the
partially unconscious men were dragged
into the fresh air and taken to a hotel for
treatment. Wilcox was in the most seri-
ous condition, but will probably recover.
He is just recovering from a fall of 10
feet from church steeple at South Had
ley Falls. The cause of today's disaster
was the prevailing high winds that swept
across the top of the tank and acted as
suction to draw out the fresh air, so the
fumes of the asphalt and benzine filed
the reservoir.
