TO BE X EGRETTED.

Chicago has come to the front with an
announcement of a mass meeting of
Cuban sympathizers, to be held on Mon
day evening next. The mayor of the city
will preside over the gathering and the
general committee includes capitalists,
merchants, lawyers, military men, clergy
men, physicians, university men, presi-
dents Of clubs, and representatives Of
labor. Associated with this committee
in the work of cooperation are the
grand army of the republic, the loyal
legion, the state federation of labor, the
trade and labor assembly, the sons.of
the colonial wars, the German and
Bohemian Americans, and the confeder-
ate veterans society.
1t is owing solely to the unfavorable
weather indications, and the fact that
there is no public hall large enough to
accommodate the crowd, that Bismarck
was not first IN the holding of a similar
meeting. AS was stated in the TRIBUNE
of yesterday, the fighting blood Of
Farmer Wallace was stirred as be shifted
the far-of struggle for independence,
and he proposed to sound to the world q
note of sympathy for the Cubans, and
hurl defiance with mailed hand into the
front teeth of naughty Spain. But an
open air meeting, in the present state OF
weather, was unlikely to inspire such
degree Of enthusiasm as was wished, and
the condition of the city hall was an argu.
ment against it's use for mass meeting
purposes. While these obstacles to the
progress of Cuban liberty were under
discussion, Chicago took time by the
forelock, and stepped in ahead of US

It is too bad thus to be deprived of the
glory which would have come from such
a gathering. It is bitter to see Chicago
step cody in and gobble up the laurele
in it's hungry NAV. But it clearly illus

On the 29th of this month, after an
eventful and highly crelitable career in
the various commissioned grades in the
army, covering forty-slx years of service
in war and peace, Lieutenant-G General
john NJ. Schofeld, commanding general
of the army, will reach the age of 81
years and be placed Oh the retired list,
with his present rank and three-quarters
of his highest pay. General Schofeld
is the last of the older officers who COM
manded an army during the war Of the
rebellion. 1t is no disparagement to
other famous veterans Of that period to
say that General Schofield is the most
distinguished of the surviving heroes who
shaped the country's history in those stir
ring times. Starting in 1861 as a first lieu
tenant OF artillery, on duty in Missouri,
he came out of the war a brigadier-gen-
eral in the regular service and a brevet
major-general of volunteers. Since the
close OF the wal his services have been
important, and have been rendered with
the intelligence, zeal and fidelity which
have characterized his whole mill
tary career. For a period of nearly one
year he was secretary of war, and dis.
charged the duties of that office from
June 2, 1868, to March IA, 1869, with
marked ability and discretion. Since
August IA, 1883, he has been the com
handing general Of the army, with head.
quarters in Washington. As the head
of the army he has had many important

ELECTIONS come around regularly and
speedily. The next one of local interest
occurs on the 9Th of next month, in the
third commissioner district of this
county. A county commissioner to sue
coed John Ecklund is to be elected.
There never has been a dearth of candi-
dates for this or any other position in
Bnrleigh county, and it is not likely this
year will be an exception.

PUBLIC WAREHOUSES;.

Owners of public warehouses in I'LL
nois must not buy or sell grain through
their own warehouses. This is the gist
of the decision rendered last week by
the state railroad and warehouse COM
mission in the proceedings brought by
the Chicago Board Of Trade against a
number of elevator companies. The IL
censes of several of the elevator COM
panids have been revoked by the COM
mission under authority conferred by
one of the acts of 1871, under which the
proceedings were takei. The decision
was based partly upon statutory grounds
and partly upon general principles,
which a number of judicial decisions
may be said to have embodied in the law.
OF course the application of
these principles to a part oular state Of
facts is a matter about which there may
be some question, and it 10 understood
that the elevator companies will have
the decision of the commission reviewed
by the courts.
In it's decision, says Bradstreets, the
commission says that a public ware
houseman for the storage of grain is en-
gagged in a public employment, and oc-
cupies a position similar to that Of other
public servants. When a man opens a
public warehouse he is required by law
to receive grain from all persons upon
equal terms and without discrimination,
for which service hs is allowed a com.
pensation. 1t cannot, the commission
says, be contended that the legislature

Suicide OF n Kentucky Farmer After n
Trip to Indiana's Gretna Green.

LOUISVILLE, KY, April 11.-Frederick
Weimer well-to-do farmer from Wood
ford county near Versailles, KY, came to
this city few days ago to attend the sale
of seventeen hogsheads of tobacco he had
shipped here. When he arrived he had
about 500 in cash. and Monday sold his to-
bacco which netted him about the same
amount. Then he wentfto saloon on Fifth
street and began drinking freely. While in
a jolly humor he said he was afraid to go
to bed with so much money about him, and
remained at the saloon all night He told
those in the saloon about losing his wife
lately and said he was very lonesome. say

men. William Wepler and Martin Crane, had

New York Robbed by the Negligence
of Dock Commissioners.

NEW YORK. April 1.-THE new board of
dock commissioners in examining the rec
ords of thes department have discovered
that leases of dock property have been sub
leased in such a way as in some instances
to bring double the money received for the
privileges by the city. 1t is alleged by an
evening paper that in this way the city has
lost on one pier $500, o00 and that the ag-
gregate will be over s1,e00.0O0. 1t appears
that during the past twenty-five years the
city received from the lessees of Pier (old)
40. the sum of $4,000. while H. H. Earring

say the Standard is making the advance to

CHEAP LABOR IN THE SOUTH.
One of the Causes Leading to the Es-
tabIishment of New Industries.

BOSTON, Mass, April 1.-THE committee
on mercantile affairs which has just re-
turned from Southern tour, during which
it considered especially the causes which
are leading to the exodus of Northern man
ufacturers to the Southern States, has re-
ported to the Legislature. The report refers
to the removal of interests from several
New England States, and says that al
though a large amount of Massachusetts
capital has been sent into the South for the
erection of cotton mills during the past few
years there is immediate danger from
Southern competition The committee adds
that four Massachusetts corporations have
recently asked for legislative permission to
move South, but have not decided to make
use of the permission. The report emphat-
icaily says that no actual removal is to be
considered by these corporations. Figures
given to show that during 1892 6S per
cent. of the increase of spindles in the
whole country put into operation in
this State. Some of the causes of the
Southern tendency discussed by the commit
tee are: Cheaper coal in that district, cheap
er labor, exemption from taxation, near
ness to the cotton fields. absence of restrfc-
tive labor legislation, abundance of water
power etc. The committee admits that the
lack of labor legislation Is a great induce
ment to the manufacturers to locate In the
South.
