iNcIoENTATT THE DOUGLASS FUNERAL

Last Of the Well-Known Hutchieson Fam
lily Sings n Abolition Song.
WARRINGTON, Feb. GA touching in
cident of the funeral services of Fred
erick Douglass was the tribute paid by
John Hutchinson, ct Boston, who-him-
self an extremely aged man, with snowy
bear1 and long white locks reaching
down to his shoulders-is said to be the
last OF the well-known Hutchinson fam
lily with whom Douglass was associated
in ante-war days. The old man had come
all the way from Boston to be present at
the funeral and sing an old Abolition song
with which, by Douglass side, he had in
sp'red many an audience in New Eng
land and abroad against the evil of slav-
cry.
He made o few reminiscent remarks
and then sang the song, at the conclusion
OF which there were few dry eyes in the
audience. The bcnedicticn was pro.
| nounced by Bishop Williams. of the Col
ored Methodist church in South Carolina
Instead of diminishing, the crowd which
gathered around the front of the church
and in the street had increased during the
services SO that it was almost impossible
for the funeral procession to make its
way to the carriages outside.
The services were extremely long, and
it was after o clock when they We're con-
ciuded. The body was escorted to the
station by the colored letter carriers OF
the District, rs well as by large number
OF friends of the deceased and his family.
The remains were put on board the 7:1O
train for Rochester, N. Y.

ARGUMENTS AGAINST THE AWARD
Some Reasons of Statesmen for Not Payiu

Some Reasons of Statesmen for Not Paying
the 81 aiers' Claims.
WASHINGTON, Feb. .6.-Almost the en-.
tire day in the house was spent discussing
the pror osal TO pay Great Britain $425 900,
the amount of damages agreed upon by
Secretary Gresham and Sir Julian Paunce-
| fote to be due that country under the
award of the Paris arbitration tribunal
on account OF the seizure of Canadian
scalcrs Iy the United States previous to
the molus vivendi of 1882. The amend
ment was strongly attacked by Cannon
of Illinois. Henderson of Iowa, and Hit.
Breckenridge and McCreary of Kentucky,
Hooker of Mississippi and Dingley sup
ported the amendment, maintaining that
the government, no matter how bad the
bargain, mus; carry out the awards of
the Paris tribunal in good faith.
Cannon said he cared little about the
| sum NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. We were cheated
o. noi-,o NJ as the damages were as
s.s-ed according to wellestablished
pr.EciI S If law. The fatal defect in the
judgment of the Paris tribunal was the
fact that the citizenship of the claimants
had never been passed upon. He called
attention, moreover, to the fact that
under the inodus vivendi agreed to in 1892
all claims for speculative damages had
been solcmnly waived. In the Geneva
award, all claims for speculative or con-
structive damages amounting to hun
dreds of millons) had been ruled out on
the ground that they depended upon con-
| eingencies too uncertain. What was
sauce for the goose should be sauce for
the gander.
Hit attacked the amendment vigor-
| ously. OF the $500 claimed positive
testimony showed that $3.50 600 was owned
by citizens of the United States. Dincley
| agreed with Cannon that the $375, goo
claimed as damages for estimated or
prospective catches should have no stand.
! ing with any commission chosen to as
sess damages. but after our experience
with the Halifax awards he believed that
prospective damages would be awarded.
Brcckinridge closed with the declara.
| ton that the conception and history of
the Paris arbitration was an unfortunate
chapter in our diplomacy. and its result
a complete fasco. Yet we must keep our
faith and pay the award

mERR1rr OWES NOTHING.
Claims the Barge COmpnny's Gar
n;sbment VIII Not Hold.

DULUTH, Mimi, June l7.-Merrltt 5
attorneys claim that the attempt OF
the American Steel Barge company
TO garnish at Cleveland Alfred Mer-
ritt's verdict for $4,000 against John
d. Rockefeller will not hold. The
Merritts owe the barge company moth
ing. but on the other hand the barge
company owe Leonidas and Alfred
over 100000. About two years ago they
gave C. w. Wetmore, on account OF
a loan, their non-negotiable notes for
$40, 900, amply secured by collateral
Wetmore turned over the notes and
more than 100000 worth of collateral
to the barge company and sold the
remainder of the collateral to Rocke-
feIler. which was sufficient to satisfy
the notes. There is now pending In
the federal court in Minnesota suit
by the Merritts to recover the 100000
from the barge works. The barge
companys claim for $4,000 rests on
the.e notes. In every suit tried either
in the federal or state courts against
Rockefeller or his companies the Mer-
ritts have been successful. Leonidas
some months ago got verdict Tor
s12.5O0 against the Mesaba railroad for
services as financial agent and YER
dict for $500 for similar services against
the Biwabik Mountain Iron company.

himself and his family, this restric-
ton of the leective franchise would
present in our northern and western
counties the spectacle Of the
majority of the taxpaying por-
ton of the communities being for five
years deprived of the right to take
any part in their own government.
It can be readily seen that in
townships settled by newly arrived
immigrants, the entire power would
be welded by comparatively few per-
sons, and that there would be large
excess of taxation without representa-
ton. -
The evils Of the ignorant and
unthinking vote are largely con-
fined to the cities. Those evils
are not manifested in the rural
districts, and in Minnesota it is those
districts which would be more particu-
larly and largely affected by this
amendment Minnesota has, in addi-
tion, another safeguard in its cli-
mate. Existence is hardly possible
in Minnesota from December to
April without employment, unless
the individual has been FORUM
ate enough to accumulate during the
summer months sufficient to live on
during the winter months. This fact
alone makes, and of necessity will con-
tinue to make the population of Min
nesota an Industrious one. The
man who has to work and provide him
self with the necessarieS of life, and
to employ the summer months in the
accumulation of the necessary cloth
ing and fuel, as well as food, for the
winter months, has no time to indulge
in either the leisure or vagaries which
produce the criminal classes.
The political effect of this amend
ment might also be significant. While
1t would probably inure to the benefit
of the Democratic party, the first and
larger question is that of the disfran-
chisement of a large portion of our
present population, and a denial of
the precious right of citizenship to
those who in the future may seek
home in Minnesota until they shall
have been for five years residents of
the state.
When this proposed amendment was
approved by the legislature the only
effect of it was supposed to be to ex-
clude from the franchise the new
comers who have been put through
the process of naturalization in the
past in the last weeks just preceding
an election. 1t was not understood by
the legislature that any general limi-
tation of the suffrage was proposed.
But If the view above taken is cor
rect, the adoption of the amendment
would lead to the disfranchisement
of many thousands of persons now
voters as well as prevent any future
immigrant from voting until he had
resided here for the full statutory
period of five years. The effect of this
upon immigration would, it is thought
|; by many, be serious and unfavorable.

but the work should be continuous.

compelled to make restitution in full,
and no action on his part or the part
of his bondsmen to this end will
mitigate the degree of his crime 'or
lessen the punishment. The governor
and Treasurer Phillips are both au-
thority for the statement that the
state will not lose cent; that prop
erty of sufficient value to more than
cover Taylor's defalcation has been
turned over to the state by Taylor
and his bondsmen, and that, not
withstanding this, the case against
him will be pushed with as much
severity as though it had been un-
dertaken against less prominent
criminal.

Badgers Encourage Immigration.

WASHINGTON, June H.-Gov. w.
HI. Upham, of Wisconsin. and Secre-
tary Bishop, of the immigration COM
mission of that state, went to Balti-
more this morning on a mission con-
nected with the plan authorized by
the legislature of Wisconsin to encour-
age immigration and the sale of yet
unoccupied public lands in that state.
Their visit was for the purpose of
making personal investigation of the
character of immigrants, the method
of their transportation to America, and
the system of inspection which pre-
walls in the seaport cities under the
present national immigration laws.
The governor and Secretary Bishop are
quite confident that the Jealous work
by the state in circulating inforlna
ton concerning it's lands will cause
renewal of the great tide of honest
German and Scandinavian immigration
that did so much toward the building
up of Wisconsin.
