MURPHY MUST GO.

His Habeas Corpus Proceedings Did
Not Release Him.
Clarence Murphy, who was arrested
in San Fancisco a short time ago on a
requisition from the Governor of Mas
sachusetts, passed through thec city last
night on his way East, in charge of
officers Neale and Hart Of Lynn.
He sued out a writ of habeas corpus,
which was heard yesterday before
Judge Bahr of San Francisco, who de-
MED it, and remanded him into the GUS
tody of the officers.
A novel point was raised by his at
torneys, who claimed that the Massa-
chusetts requisition charged him with
larceny, while the statutes of this State
makes the crime committed by him
grand larceny. He also made the point
that the recital of the crime in the
requisition showed it to consist of the
stealing Of promissory notes, current
as money in Massachusetts, to the
amount of $500, and that such notes
would be Federal money, and the COM
plant should cite that fact more spe-
officially.
The arguments were of no avail how
ever, and Murphy's name is Dennis

An Express Wagon Driver Collides
With Street Car.
G. Paladini, with his horse and ex-
press wagon, received a lively shaking
W yesterday at the corner of Fourth
and K streets. He was coming down
on the south side of the street, but
crossed over to the north side, just in
front of G street car. He had not cal
culated, however. on the space another
express wagon, going in the same direc-
tion, would occupy, and SO he ran into
it, throwing his horses head around
toward the car.
One of the shafts struck the hand-rail
on the front of the car, passing inside of
it, and there was very sudden mix-up
of things, and had the motorman not
been an old, cool-headed hand, the re-
suits might have been more serious.
AS it was, very little damage was done,
except to the shaft and the car

THAT RESOLUTION.
1t Did Not Reach the Hands of the
Governor and State Printer.

II Dl0 NOC 1A0acn Cn6 HANDS OF Ln6
Governor and State Printer.
Considerable controversy has arisen
over the fact that Assembly concur
rent resolution No. Z, against the pas
sage of the Reilly funding bill, was not
printed in the statutes Of the last Legis-
lature.
Investigation proves that the resolu-
tion passed both houses, and on January
81, 1893, was ordered by the Assembly
transmitted to the Governor, with a
request that he telegraph it to Congress.
It appears that it was not so trans
mitted, but was telegraphed to Con-
gress and did not reach the Governors s
Office at all. The original resolution is
in the archives of the Secretary of State,
having the signatures of the Clerks of
both houses, showing it was adopted by
them both, but not having the sigma
ture and receipt of the Governor it was
not sent to the State Printer.

The Cleveland World" which is so
situated that it knows, says that there
is not single vessel, steam or sail, on
any of the great lakes, flying the Amer
lean flag, that can be in case of need
converted into a gunboat or made at
all serviceable to resist assault along
the Canadian frontier, while the Eng
lish are SO capacitated that they could
close the Welland Canal, dominate
every lake port and dictate terms on all
the lakes save Michigan, having unas-
sailable bases to which to retreat. Prob
ably this is true, yet there are soft
pated people left who insist upon agree
ing with England to establish Per
which ali questions that may ever be at
issue between America and England
should be submitted. When we are as
strong in naval arms as is England;
fear that Canada will rule on the lakes
than we have to expect the Patagoni-
ans to do so; when we are in a position
to say to the world, do by us justly
of by the power of might we will make
you; when we are able to stand up and
say to England, "'This is a case for
arbitration which she denies concerns
US; when we are in a position to fence
with her in diplomacy as an equal
when all these things have been accom-
plshed it will be time enough to talk
of establishing a Permanent Commit
tee of Arbitration" The only arbitrat-
ing body we want just now is a body of
army and navy preparedness; capacity
that will command for us the respect
that England's strength does for her.
When we are equals before the world
it will make very little difference
whether there is a committee of arbi-
tration in existence or not.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

Some of our interior contemporaries
are discussing the question of exemp-
tion of church property from taxation,
and a few favor the exemption. But
will anybody give one single, sound,
sensible reason for such a policy? 1t was
once the rule in this State. The people
repealed it and it is unlikely that they
will ever return to the policy. 1t has
neither reason, sense nor wit to sus-
tain it.
Fashion journals and other symtom
attic evidences convince us that the big
hat is coming back for woman's wear
the approaching spring. only it will be
larger, higher, more expensive and ever
so many more times a nuisance than be-
fore. It is all right for the street ladies,
but take notice, oh, ye women of Amer
ica the patience, chiyalry and Tepres-
sive power of men is just about ex-
hausted, and they will cease wholly If
you insist upon wearing the abomina-
tions in theaters and other places OF
public assembly. From expression we
have heard among men who spend their
dollars to sustain places OF public en-
tertainment there will be sudden and
emphatic stoppage of taking women
to theaters, lectures and concerts, who
insist upon wearing headgear that OBJ

Two Big Elevators in Chicago Burn
Firemen Nearly Killed.

noon. A large amount of grain was

Both elevator A and elevator B of
the Pacific Elevator company were de-
stroyed with other smaller buildings.
The loss will approximate 81. 500 O00
By I o. m. the fire had assumed such
dangerous proportions that a general
alarm was turned in. 1t had by this
time spread to several small frame
buildings used as Weighing offices and
these were soon destroyed. The heat
from the burning elevators was terrific
and finally compelled the abandon
ment of four lines of hose which had
been run into the boiler room of eleva-
tor A
Five fremen of company 80 nearly
lost their lives while fighting the flames
from the roof Of the office, a small brick
building in close proximity to one of
the elevators Notwithstanding the
fact that the roof had caught fire and
was burning benea h them they stuck
to their post till suddenly the roof fell
from beneath them Two of the men
were close enough to the edge of the
wall to grab it and were left hanging
there as the roof fell in The other
three went down. but held on to the
hose and were rescued with great diff
hculty.
The Pacific eIeva tor was composed of
three separate buildings six stories in
height. Elevator A was the first to
go and then elevator B caught fire.

high wind and for time it was

as Democrats are concerned, there are
not as many in opposition to the action
Of the party in fusing with the Popu-
lists as there were in the campaign Of
1892. The same ones that opposed
then, oppose now. only there are not so
many of them. The PopuIists are
united almost to a man. The so-calIed
middle of the road element is simply
decaying remnant of a faction which
has always opposed POpUHst nominees

80 900 free silver Republicans. The only
thing that the Republicans have left
on which to hang their hopes of carry

liquor element, strange as it may seem.

THE situa ton in Nebraska is pre-
cisely that of Kansas and the political
elements the same and is as sure of
going for Bryan as the election day
comes. Missouri likewise, viii 60 for

Indiana and Michigan are about as Ger

many chances that the same result viii

claiming Illinois, but they are simply
whistling to keep their courage up.
One hundred thousand silent voters in
Chicago means that many men, terror

Republican claims of 49,.

they are clustering and bluffing. The
truth is that there viii be about that
much majority the other way outside

to a very decided majority in the state

Chicago. oct 26.-The greatest piece
OF personal campaigning ever done by
public man in a single city is what will

speechmaking here have been finally
settled upon.

the halls and tents all engaged and the
precise times for Mr.. Bryan's appear
anee at each place. shows that the
triple nominee is to deliver five
speeches the night of his arrival in the
city, Tuesday Next Wednesday he de-
livers seven speeches. Thursday eight,
and Friday probably more than on any
previous day, the exact limit having
not vet been fixed. The record when
Mr. Bryan finishes is expected to show
over thirty different addresses in three
days and one evening named, the aim
of the candidate apparently being to
place himself practically in personal
contact to the extent of sight and hear
ing of the entire population of every
corner of the 176 square miles of ter
ritory within the city limits of Chi

to induce him to support Bryan and
urge the election of the silver candi-

presidency have failed. He viii not
