A dispatch from Lowestoft, England,
says the coroner's jury which has been
investigating the cause of the sinking
of the North German Lloyd steamship
Ellie, after collision which occurred
early in the morning OF January 80,
last, returned "a verdict yesterday OF
gross negligence upon the part OF the
mate and lookout man OF the British
steamer Crathie, which ran into and
sank the Elbe. The jury exonorated
Captain Gordon. the commander Of the
Crathie, from all blame. The captain
might not have been to blame for the
collision, but his abandonment of
the sinking vessel and her
hapless crew was one Of the most heart
less exhibitions Of selhshness ever
recorded in the history OF ocean disss
tiers. It Ia true he might have en-
dangered the lives OF afl on board the
Crathie by remaining too close to the
sinking Rlbe, but all accounts sgree
that the smaller vessel, as soon as she
was extricated from the position. in
which she had been placed by the COL
lision, rapidly steamed away and left
the helpless passengers to their fate.

AWED BY THE TSAR.
His Wonderful Personality and Power
Over His People.

His Wonderful Personality and Power
Over His People
Emperor Nicholas l., great-grand-
father of the present young tsar, in
spired the Russians with awe ct the
very beginning of his reign, says the
Youth Companion. His Oldest brother,
Alexander l., was childless and the
next heir to tho throne was Constan-
tine, the second brother, Nicholas, be-
ing third.
But Alexander made Nicholas his
heir by an edo, Constantine recogniz-
ing his own incapacity to become en-
pcror. Nevertheless, when Alexander
died, there was conspiracy to put Con-
stantine on the throne, and an immense
crowd gathered before the equestrian
statue of Peter the Great in the great
square OF ST. Petersburg, to support
three regiments of troops who had
pledged themselves to carry out the
plot
Nicholas ordered several regimen is
TO face the rioters, and rode forth sur
rounded by his staff and confronted the
crowd. An officer galloped from the
nutinous regiments, his right hand
thrust into the breast of his uniform.
The emperor advanced alone to meet
him.
what DO you bring meg' asked Mich
olas, when they halted at a swords
length from each other.
The emperor's fearless gaze unnerved
the officer. His hand moved convul-
sively under his uniform; without say
ing word he turned his horse and rode
back to his associates.
"The tsar looked at me,gyith such a
terrible glance that I could not kill
him, said he to those who loudly asked
whyhe had not executed his purpose.
Once when the cholera was rigging in
st. Petersburg bowling mob was
shouting that the mobiles and the Jews
had caused the terrible disease. Mich
olas went into the midst Of the crazed
rioters and suddenly throwing back his
cloak, exclaimed:
"Wretchesl Down on your knees
down, everyone of You, end pray the
Father in Heaven to pardon those sins
that have brought the pestlence upon
you; for it is those sins that have
brought it into Your honest"
Awed by his mien and his words the
vast mob fell on their knees in prayer.

THE PROPOSED BALTIMOKE EXPOSE.
TON.
Baltimore proposes to hold an exposi-
ton in 1897, which will rival that to be
held at Atlanta, Ca, this year. Both
cities are among the most progressive
and enterprising OF the country, and
while Baltimore can not in the strictest
sense be denominated Southern city,
yet as whole, its people are Southern
in their sympathies and aspirations.
Although Baltimore was always within
the Northern lines during the late civil
war. her people manifested g strong
feeling of affection for the South in her
desperate struggle against great odds
from the beginning to the close Of the
contest.
The city already possesses an extern.
sive Southern trade, and the business
men there. with thelenergy and persever.
ance that has always characterized
them, are reaching out over this sec
tion in all directions for its increase
and extension. The proposed exhibit
tion will of course be success, and
should be participated in by the peo-
pie OF every Southern State with the
same spirit of liberality that they are
showing towards the one to be held in
Atlanta. Hon. William L. Wilson, of
West Virginia, the great tariff reformer,
and recently appointed Postmaster
General, writes to the editor of the
Manufac turer's Record in regard to the
proposed great exposition as follows
81 have been DESTROYS Of doing any
thing in my power to contribute to its
SUCCESS. The location of Baltimore,
midway between the North and South
and her control, by virtue OF her ad
miral facilities as seaport, OF large
and increasing part Of our Western ex-
port trade, together with her steady
growth and solid prosperity, must
necessarily attract to such an exhibit
ton the favorable attention of the en-
tire country.

IT is announced from London semi
officially that Great Britain Is disposed
to withdraw her forces from Corinto,
Nicaragua, provided the proper security
for the payment OF the indemnity Is
given by the government Of the latter
country. On the other hand officials at
Washington express fears that there
may yet be hitch in the Nicaragua
settlement, and it is said that the pos.
sibility OF an entire failure OF the agree.
ment has not yet been passed. In the
meantime, revolution Is possible in
the unhappy Central American State
should the government accede to the
demands of Great Britain. To further
complicate matters and increase the
war spirit of the people. Honduras has
given assurances to Nicaragua that she
will assist her against further British
aggression should it be necessary. The
United States ostensibly is g disinter
ested spectator in the whole affair, but
when the facts all come to light it will
be found that this government has been
doing good work in trying to effect a
peacable solution of the difficulty in the
early removal OF British troops from
Nicarsguan soil.

IT is evident from the turn of politi-
cal events that vigorous fight will be
made byOboth factions of the currency
question to capture the South in the
Presidential campaign of 1896. In the
West populism and silver have gained
foothold, from which it will be diff
cult to wrest them; but in the South
where speculation has been less
wild, and where. during the past
two years OF business depression,
the crops have been better than in anv
other part Of the country, the people,
while suffering to some extent, have
not been affected as seriously in their
business relations as those Of the apri.

and liberality for which they have
always been noted in business matters.
they are not liable to be led astray bv

that President Cleveland and his sound
money followers and the advocates OF
the free coinage of silver will carry ON a
campaign of education in money matters
here for all 1t is worth. AS most of the
bowling dervishes Of the monetary
bands know nothing really of finances
1t is hoped they will learn something

THESE are our sentlments-the Eddy
Current says: When newspaper fatty
accuses a person of crime 1t should bt
prepared to prove it's assertion, and the
law should be made SO plain, explicit and
severe, that for newspaper to accuse a
person of crime, would carry with it con.
viction to the mind of it's readers that the
accused is truly guilty. With prison
staring him in the face an editor is not
apt to publish statement accusing OF
crime unless he has excellent proof. That
criminal libel should be punished goes
without saying in all civilized countries.
Every pound of type in use and all press
es and material should be held for dam
ages by libel, and such Judgment for
damage should come in ahead of chattel

sible newspapers and wedding out
would be of immense benefit to those
conducted on legitimate and square
basis, with justice to all as motto.

Schlader. There are thousands probably
millionsof men and women in the west,
and not few in the east, who honestly
believe that diseases, pronounced incura-
BILE by the ablest medical practitioners,
have been cured by the touch of Schla-
der's hand. Various newspapers of good
standing credit this man with healing
power that is utterly ine1plicable with
out drawing on the supernatural. That
he is not an ordinary fraud is shown by
his refusal to accept money from any
source. When, few days ago, he sud-
denly disappeared from Denver, great
disappointment was occasioned to thous-
ands of invalids who had gone to that
city to be healed by his touch. Other
thousands we're on their way. Says the
Washington Post:
One of the newspapers that profess
belief in the reports concerning this man
and his works is the Detroit journal. 1t
says that Schlader's power to heal is too
we'll authenticated to admit of caviling
dispute; that hundreds of persons have
felt the magic of his curing touch; that
sufferers from chronic ailments, cripples
who could scarcely move, the deaf, the
blind and the hopelessly ill have been re-
stored to health and strength by the
strange healer from New Mexico, and
concludes that nobody may reasonably
doubt the verify of his being or the GER
tainty that he heals by the subtle power
of which no other known msrtal is pos
sessed.
We submit that this is case that calls
for scientific inquiry. We do not know,
adds the Post, of our own knowledge, that
any of the allegations we have mentioned
are true, nor can we prove them false.
Intelligent minds are disinclined to be-
lieve statements that are not, in their
opinion, in harmony with human expert
ence. But many thousands of intelligent
minds are, as we have shown, impressed
with the belief that this man performs
acts that have always been deemed i'm
possible of performance by human agen-
cies. Science should be able to give these
alleged acts their right names.

IT is cheering, not to say refreshing, to
note the view that some of the eastern
journals are taking of New York City's
endeavor to gobble the National Demo
cratic convention. The Boston Herald
speaks oat and to the point in this wise
1t is to be hoped that the New York
papers do not take themselves seriously
while they are urging the claims of that
city to consideration when the time
comes for selecting the location of the
next Democratic National convention.
The influence which the dominant Demo-
cratic organization of New York City has
exerted, or undertaken to exert, in the
recent national conventions of the party,
has not been of character to commend
it to the favorable consideration of the
Democracy at large. The chief and in
superabe obstacle to the selection of
New York as the National Democratic
convention city is that it is altogether
too near to Tammany hall

HOW ABOUT STATEHOOD

The Republican caucus meets in the
hall of the house of representatives in
Washington City on Saturday evening,
November 30, at 1880 O'Clock. Delegate
T. B. Catron, of New Mexico, has been
notified to attend and will be there, with
his brains and energy. He and his steno-
grspher, W. E. Gortner, will also be pres
ent at the national wool growers conven-
tion, which convenes in that city on De-
cember 4.-Las Vegas Optic. Yes; that's
all right, but we trust that the boss sud-
den and lively interest in those anti.
Mckinley wool resolutions will not wear
too heavily on his "brains and energy"
He'll need some of 'em to handle the
statehood proposition.

REASONING FROM FALSE PREMISES.

Some time ago the Rocky Mountain
News, presumably expressing the opinion
of it's brilliant lawyer-editor, Hon. T. NJ
Patterson, affirmed that Col. Hughes, OF
the Albuquerque Citizen, was wrongfully
ordered locked up by the New Mexico su-
preme court for contempt, because, it
alleged, contsmpt of court must be
committed within 100 miles of the court
room to be punishable as such. Recent.
ly the News has reiterated this PROPOSE.
ton, adding that Hughes offense was
merely libel. 1t says;
The right Of courts to punish for con.
tenn pt is not denied, and ia necessary
power lodged in all courts to maintain
their dignity and uphold their preroga-
tives, but Mr.. Hughes offense did not
come within 100 miles of contempt OF
court.
Assuming that the major premise Of
the News, that contempt of court must be
committed within 100 miles of the court
room, is correct, its conclusion is neces.
sarily incorrect for the reason that ite
minor premise is false.
Albuquerque, where the Citizen is pub.
lished, is not 100 miles from Santa Fe,
where the supreme court was sitting at
the time the offensive article was printed.
As the crow flies it is less than sixty
miles from Santa Fe to Albuquerque,
and by the Atchison, Topeka 4 Santa Fe
railroad, the usual travelled route, the dis
lance between the two cities is only
eighty miles. Besides this the News is
also reminded that the Citizen circulates
daily in Santa Fe, arriving here the morn
ing after publication, and thus virtually
offended 10 the very face of the court.
We make this explanation for the sake
of placing the editor of the News in pos.
session of essential facts and doubt not
that he will candidly concede that false
premises led him to arrive at false CON.
clusion.
