WILL GIVE A PIANO.
The J. 8. BaTnaby Company Make Lib
eraI Offer to Societies and Clubs.

The J. b. Barnaby Company evidently
propose 10 stir uD a good deal of interest
and friendly rivalry between the many
lodges, associations aud clubs that dis
ting,iish Rhode Island. To this end
they offer a piano to the organizat ion
that shall prove TO be the most popular
one in the State by vote Of the people at
large. For facilitating the balloting this
liberal clothing house has Sc
lected THE News as its medium, and
will print daily in the columns
OF this newspaper their offer
and the ballot. Everybody is entitled to
vote, and TO vote az often "a they please.
All the Barnaby Company require Is that
the ballot be cut from their advertisement
and filed out with the name OF the
organization you want TO vote for and
then turn the ballot over to them, where
1t will be stored and counted by n COM
mittee OF judges when the contest is
closed Marcn iSnoxt, at 6p. m.
There is no string 10 the offer of any
kind. Voters are not required to make n
purchase az the Bnrnaby store i'm order TO
vote and the lodge or club or society GET
ting the highest number OF votes
will win the plano--and tha. il
oil there Is 10 IL. The value of the beau
tiful instru ument-which is now on ex-
hibtion in the Bernaby window - is quoted
at $3.50 which is a low valuation as the
psny makes the price $50, and that
IL the price which the local agents,
Golf q Darling, from whom the piano IL
purchased, would ordinarily ask for II.
The Barnaby Company, however, put the
lowest valuation ON the piano that
those who examine IL in their window
may appreciate sho fsct that it IA all, aud
even more, that IA clnimed for IL.
The various societies about the State
now have chance to get up some good
fun among themselves with everything to
win and nothing TO iosc.

TROUBLE WILL SOON BE OVER.

Tclcgrams announces that the sum OF
s. $50. OO0 in gold was Withdrawn from
the subtrcasury for shipment to England
to-day. OF this amount Hcsiier, Wood &
Company took Sl,750 900; W. H. Cross
man and Bros, 81 coo, 600, and Nesslage
& Fuller 100000
These withdra walls reduced the gold re-
serve To S99 .55o, ,oO0, the lowest it has
been since The Belmont-M Morgan syndicate
completed Their contract with the govern
ment and paid for the new / per centbonds,
the proceeds OF which brought the gold
reserve up to S1O7 900, 600.
In fact, yesterday was the first time
since The completion of tie contract that
the reserve was reduced below the $780,
600 600 mark. The bond syndicate yes
terday deposited $2,0OO,O00 in gold in
the subtreasury and thereby kept the
government reserve at the 500 900 900
mark
This indicates that the bond syndicate
proposes to keep its contract and that our
gold reserve will not be permitted to reach
the danger point. For several weeks the
syndicate has been quietly paying a small
premium for Western gold and it now has
enough on hand To meet emergencies. Thirty
days more viii begin to bring returns from
our export crops, and as soon as they are
at hand the trouble TO maintain our gold
reserve VIII be over, relief that is much

4 TRAyEsTY on JUSTICE.

Soberly, sincerely, honestly. is 1T not q
travesty on justice when our authorities
commute the sentence OF a man for good
behavior who has never been in confine-
ment, and has all the time been at large
attending to his own affairs? Supe!~ .
intcndent SChoepf, of the Trolley Trust,
was arrested for violation OF the statutes.
After due trial he was convicted and
sentenced to the workhouse for thirty days,
but instead OF inflicting the penalty, the
authorities allowed him to go free from
punishment, and in order that the records
might show his earlier release. Trolley
Trust Schoepr was given five days time
for good behavior.
Long ago there was an era when ii was
believed that laws were created 10 punish
criminals, TO protect the public, TO inspire
feeling OF fear among those inclined TO
Ia wlcssness II was expected that these
statutes would apply to rich and poor alike,
TO the influential and the humble citizen
with equal force and justice, but alas, a
record or that era can alone be found in
story books, where il is only necessary TO
ring a fairy bell 10 snuff out the wicked
and reward righteousness VITA numbcrle>s s
gold mines: nor can one of those fairy books
De seen in our District court archives.
There is too much Schuepf Justice con
nected with all District affairs. The troll
ey trust has the right OF way, as have many
other eases where influence has prevent
ed rich offenders from being prosecuted.
Hundreds Of grand jury indictments re-
main unprosccuted. ana other equally fla
grant Illustrations Of failure To infIict pen
allies or bring offenders Ia account can be
found IN every District department.
Right here The Times would Ike to ask
why the prosecution Of the trolley trust
has been abandoned?

Atlanta Ga, Aug. 2O.-The proposed
bun fight. which has been destroying The
peace of Col Hosea BaIlou. has been can
cclcd and the matadors are sad. This
afternoon the executive board of the ex-
position, with one fell blow, put an end
to the fight
The bull fight was to have occurred in
the Mexican village, quite large coUccs-
sion inside the exposition grounds. The
exposition management had nothing TO
90 with the fight. and knew nothing Of
the proposition until after it was being
talked of by the newspapers of the cGun-
try.
Al the meeting of the board this after
noon President Collier called the atten-
tion or the directors to the great amount
OF talk that was being indulged in con
cerning the fight, and said he favored
the exclusion of the fight from the grou ut!s
A resolution was adopted inStructiug
the president to notify the CoucesSionaire
that the bull fight VIII not be permitted
ON the grounds. There will be a lively
kick from the COucessiOnaire. as h,s arena
is almost completed and the bulls are
ready for shipment to Atlanta

SAFETY OF STREET CAR PASSEN-
GERS

The attention OF the Commissioners haas
been invited 10 the absence Of proper regu-
IaJions governing The stopping and start
ing of street cars, especially those pre-
peeled ley other than horse power. Mis-
haps due to this cause are altogether too
frequent, and some remedial action is
urgently called for
The railway companies claim that their
instructions to conductors and gripmcn OF
mutoUn@a are positive cBd strict 10 bring
thn car 10 n mIl stop in order To let
passenger get on, and not to start il
1mul the passenger is safely off. But it
ls very wei known that If such rules ex-
Isl they are very generally disregarded.
In nine cases out OF ten no attention is
paid to th7m.
Pass aacers have the right, OF course,
% complain Of the conductor or gripman
who thus io!atas the rules and jeopardizes
their lives and limbs, but unless they are
seriously hurt-aud not always then
they prefer 10 pocket the annoyance rather
thsn DE bothered to appear as witnesses,
OF make long and detailed statements in
writing As a consequence the nuisance
Is kept up and many q passenger is more
Dr less hurt or shaken up as the result of il.
Ina lutleI to jhc Commissioners Mr.. Jacob
Frcch, wel-Rnown resident of lhc north

does nol hold lltc conductors and gripnen
or motorIncn as culpable as the managers

with the rules Glal apply in The cases in
question. II these We're printed plainly
and posted in thc cars coH~picuously 4 long
step would have been taken toward rene

II would seem that the Commissioners in

right 10 order this TO be done

MALCOLM HURDLES DEA tn. i.
Coroner Ha mmett w i'll Hold anInques
in the Matter.

Harbormaster Sutton made an tnvesti-
cation last evening to determine whether
Malcolm Hurdle was drowned Sunday in
the jurisdiction of the District or Vir-
ginia This morning he will report to
Coroner Hammett that Hurdle went over
board in the Georgetown channel, just
east OF Long Bridge and in the jurisdiction
OF the District of Columbia.
II is now believed the coroner win
order an inquest, as both the men, Butler
and Dubant, who were with Hurdle at
the time of the fatal occurrence, have
stated that he deliberately sprang over
board.
Butler told an officer of the Sixth pre-
cinct yesterday that, in addition to the
three men, there was woman in the row
boat with them; that Hurdle sprang fEto
the river once and was hauled into the
boat with difficulty by his compa mons.
After that he slipped overheard while the
others were not looking in his direction,
Butler being in the bow OF the boat, while
the Of. s. were facing the stern, with
their backs TO him.
