CORRECT, GOV. STONE.

The Missouri Legislature, con-
trolled for the first time since re-
construction by the Republicans, re-
fused to enact laws reversing the
court-made law of the non-lia bill
ity of the employer for damages
sustained by an employee through
the negligence of a co-employe, and
other needed laws regulating cleo
tons. The lobby opposed the bills,
and the Legislature yielded to the
methods so forceful in the hands of
the skilled member of the third
house.
Gov. Stone follows the adjourn
ment with a call for a special ses-
sion to convene at once to see
whether the people of Missouri are
ruled by their representatives or by
the lobby. For years, he says, the
state has been disgraced by the
gathering of lobbyists with each re-
curing session, veritable vultures
seeming the carrion, making profit
out of bills passed or bills defeated.
They have at last grown insolent
and bold by long immunity, and
conduct their operations in the open
with hardly an effort at conceal
ment.
The governor now throws down
the challenge to the lobby for a
hnal trial of strength on the issue
whether a just legislative meas
ure of this kind-the co-em-
ploye bill-can be enacted into
law in spite of the communicating
influence of those who openly boast
OF their ability to direct the current
or legislation. He invites them to
trial by battle, with the whole
state for audience and the field
cleared of all distractions. No 9TH
er measures will distract attention
and afford shelter or chance for
logrolling. 1t will be the honor and
decency of the state against the
money of the lobby.
VI the result there can hardly be
question. The boodlers will not
care to come out into the open when
their usual shelters are swept awav.
The lobby will not attack the bill
directly, but will attempt to rob if
OF its value by amendments. The
struggle will be a very interesting
one, and the whole country will
watch the outcome of this contest
OF the doughty governor and the
lobby with something more than
curiosity.

TAYLOR JURY HUNG.
Broad Hints of Bribery in the
Case

case.
CARROLLTON, Mo-, April AT
1:30 o'clock the jury sent for Judge
Bucker, and the foreman, William
French, notified him that the jury could
not agree. The judge ordered the sher-
if to return the jury to its room and
lock it up. There is now no doubt that
the jury has been tempered with
Sidney Miller, prosecuting attorney of
CarrolltOn, had received a telegram
from Charles Dickinson, who was on
the panel from which the jury was
chosen, which is very damaging to the
defense. Dickinson swears that on the
Monday night before the trial began,
Jacob s. Williams, cashier of the Bank
of Tina, went to him and said that. in
case he was selected for a juror if he
would stand out for acquittal, there
would be big money in it for him.
Williams said that he would see that
the money was paid. The next day,
Dickinson says, he was approached by
Rich Smith, brother-in-law of Barney
Hudson. who is now on the jury, and
Smith made the same proposition that
had been made by Williams. Dickin-
son is one Of the most reputable men
nation in Carroll county that a jury
could be found here to do anything but
convict the Taylors, as no one has the
slightest doubt of their guilt, and the
reason they expressed to account for
the hung jury is that some member of
it has been bribed.
Marshal Wilson, of Browning, says
there is great indignation in Tina and
Sullivan counties over the manner in
which the jury is holding out. Asked
if he apprehended danger from mob
violence in case the jury should fail to
agree, he laughed and said, You can't
tell what will happen"
If Taylor is acquitted, he will re-
turn to Browning, it is reported.

SOUND MONEY MOVE.
People of Tennessee Call u State
Convention,

Convention.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, April A sound
money movement was started here to-
day which. is likely to be far-reaching
in its results. AT a largely attended
meeting of committee from the Cot
ton, MERCHANTS and Lumbermen's ex-
changes, the Manufacturers associa-
ton and Young Mems Business league,
the following resolutions were adopt
ed:
Resolved, That a convention is here
by called to assemble at Memphis,
Tenn, on Thursday, May %, 1885, to
be composed of delegates chosen by
the people of the Southern states who
believe in the necessity of sound and
stable currency and better banking
facilities in order to fully restore, and
in the future to maintain, prosperity
among the people, and to this end this
cooperation of all commercial, manu-
featuring, agricultural and industrial
bodies, as well as the cooperation
of all good citizens, is hereby ear
neStly invited.
The chairman of the meeting ap-
pointed a committee of fifteen to carry
out the objects contemplated in call
ing the convention. The meeting was
addressed by Congressman Patterson,
of this district, who assured the meet
ing that Secretary Carlisle would visit
the city in May for the purpose of dis
cussing financial questions before the
convention, and that the movement
had the hearty Endorsement of Presi-

M5kTNLEY UP TO DATE.

The final returns are all in now
and roundup of the attitude of
Gov mckinney, the next Repub-
1can candidate for the presidency.
is made possible. The latest adj
vices from Washington, where the
governor called on the president, are
that he had put a Yale lock on his
mouth, preventing the issuing of any
more views on the silver or any
other question likely to be involved
in next years campaign. And stimuli
taneously comes from Topeka the
message that it is understood by
the managers of Mr.. McKinley's
preliminary skirmish for delegates
that, first, Mckinley will have the
delegation from that state; second,
that the delegation will be against
free coinage, and, third, it will be
for some sort of financial straddle,"
which, lit is understood here. is
what Mckinley wants.
We have the field now in COM
plete perspective. A study of it, in
view of Mr.. McKinley's candidacy
and inevitable nomination and the
dominance of the silver question, is
pertinent and interesting. To go
back in the field no farther than 1891
we have the doughty governor as
sailing the administration of Mr..
Cleveland for it's hostility to silver.
He accused it of "dishonoring sill
Ver;;' Of enhancing the price of
gold" of a determination to con
tract our circulating medium and
demonetize one of the coins of com
merce, limit the volume of money
among the people, make money
scarce and therefore DEAR" instead
OF being cheap and therefore
nasty" We do not recall a speech
of any advocate of free coinage
that does not use the equivalent of
these expressions.
Nearer in the foreground comes
the Thomasville episode, where he
met the heroic editor of the Chicago
Tribune, who, last November, asked :.
Does any one not mailman or a
Jackass intend to revive that unfor-
tunate issue (McKinIeyism) of 80
and '92?' First in order of date is
the announcement in the Savannah
Advertiser of March "a, claiming
that one of the governors party
gave away the programme of his
campaign, which was narrowed to
the tariff and a white Republican
party in the South. The next day
came a special from ST. Augustine
stating that the previous night, at
Thomasville, the governor received a
letter from 100 or more Atlanta Dem
ocrats and Republicans assuring him
of the electoral vote of that state if
he would declare himself an advo-

The public was given two speci-
mems of what is considered journal
ism by some ST. Paul papers yester-
day. The Pioneer Press secured a
copy of the reply Of the railroad
commission to the request Of the
senate for information on several
points relating to railroads. under
promise to hold it until after the
original had been delivered in the
senate. It gained scoop by the
very disreputable process of break
ing faith with the commission. This
about equals that other display
of journalism it made some ten
years ago in publishing Blaine's
speech before it was released, and
then boasting of it's enterprise The
other display was by the Dispatch,
and no other term but aSinine fits
it. 1t announced in headlines that
Gov. Marshall is dead" and gave
an obituary, while its account no
where contained a direct statement
that he was dead, and when it might
have found from the same source
where the GLOBE learned the night
before, on hearing the rumor, that
it was untrue.

AT THE THEATERS.

De Wolf Hopper and his very ex-
cellent company delighted an i'm
mense audience at the Metropolitan
last night in the opening perform
ance of ''Dr. SyntaX," by far the
most pleasing opera in which Mr..
Hopper has appeared in this city.
The music is unusually bright, and
forces the conclusion that the au-
thors must haved worked with the
aid of well developed inspiration.
The lines are much more intelli-
gent than those of the average
comic opera, and spoken with in
telligence, as they were last night,
they become treat and rarity.
The scenery is magnificent, and the
attention to detail, on which Mr..
Hopper has always insisted, makes
this one of the most elaborate and
handsomely staged operas before
the public.
The opera is burlesque on coll
lege life, and represents simultan-
eously the pranks of the youth at
college and the girls at a nearby
always appreciated by the public,
and especially when as cleverly pre-
sented as is "Dr. Syntax" In the
title role Mr.. Hopper has a charac-
ter to his liking, and he has never
been seen to better advantage in
st. Paul. He conducts himself as if
thoroughly delighted with the role
he is enacting, and is rich in humor
his every look, movement, word
being productive of merriment. The
large and very fashionable audi
ence last night rendered the gem
tleman an ovation, and insisted on
a speech before the curtain, which
was delivered with Mr. Hopper's
characteristic readiness of wit. Dur
ing the second act he delivered his
famous ''pome" entitled Casey at
the Bat, and was rewarded with a.
perfect storm of applause.
Edna Wallace Hopper, the come
dams charming wife. captivated the
audience at various intervals by her
sprightly actions and excellent sing
ing. She is dainty bit of femininity,
and remarkably clever aid to her
clever husband. Bertha Waltzinger's
singing was decided treat in all re-
spects, and her duet with Mr.. Stan.

Jennie Goldthwaite delighted with her
representation of the slow-going, half.

Klein. Thomas Guise and Lou Har>
low are all excellent. The chorus is
large, splendfdly rehearsed, and com>
posed of pretty and shapely girls
The performance moves briskly, and is
certainly the most commendable seen
here in recent years. The third scene
in the first act, which represents a
school room filed with female stu
dents in a girls boarding school, and
the second and third scenes in the
second act, representing the girl pu,
pills stealing out through a second
story window to attend the Yale-Har-
ward boat race. and then the boat race
itself, are exceptionally good.

One Deal Completed.

Fergus Falls Journal.
Gov. Clough has appointed DR.. c., L..
Wells, of Minneapolis, member of
the board of hospital trustees in place
of DR.. w. A. Jones. There is quite an
interesting story in connection with
this appointment, or rather the turn
ing down of DR.. Jones. DR.. Jones
term expired in January at the same
time as that of J. w. Mason. Mason
was reappointed, but Jones was not.
A large delegation of physicians
called on Gov. C1ough, urging Jones'
reappointment, as he was an expert
in insanity. 1t was admitted that he
was a good man, but the governor
would not reappoint him. 1t developed
that Senator Peterson, who was also a,
member of the board, was opposed to
Jones, and during the senatorial fight
exaeted pledge from Gov. Nelson
that Jones would not be reappointed.
AS Senator Peterson had voted for
Gov. Nelson with thtis understand
ing, Gov. Clough declined to reap
point Jones. DR.. Wells Is reported to
be good man for tho place.

Coke Works Close.

CONNELLSVILLE, Pa, April A.
The Elm Grove and Mount Braddock
plants of the Rainey Coke works
were closed down indefinitely today,
and a portion of the Rainey ovens in
the Vanderbilt region have also been
blown out. Officials Of the Rainey
company state that the trouble is
caused by drunkenness among the men
who do not report for work regularly.
1t is believed here, however, that
Rainey cannot afford to grant the 16
per cent advance given by the other
operators and will let his plants re-
main idle. This will not affect the
other plans in the region.

mains that Thomas Jefferson for
century has been and today is the
most commanding personality in
American politics. His name stands
for all that is best in popular govern
ment, because the essential principle
that ne constantly enforced was not
state sovereignty, nor national sover-
eighty, but the ever-en enduring right
