Police Commissioner Roosevelt, of
New York, has come into notoriety by
his reform movement in New York city,
and having lordcd it there with a high
hand for some time he imagnes that he
is still one of the grand moguls OF the
Repnl lican party. He is chiefly noted
for his extreme views on every. question
and for the strong language he employs
in villifying and traducing those who
happen to differ from him. At recent
Republican meeting in New York city
the great reformer was one of those who
delivered addresses. AS he is in his ele-
ment on occasions OF that kind, ne waded
into the opponents Of Republicanism
with his characteristic venom, and was
particularly abusive of the farmers Be
low are IL few extracts from his speech,
which show that in readiness to 90 to eX-
tremes Commissioner Roosevelt is Just as
wild and unframed rs any OF the grizzly
bears that he claims to have hunted in
the wild and woody West. Here is what
he said:
'Mr. Bryan and his adherents have APP
pealed to the bascst set in the land. the
farmers. If they are not 50, then why do
they believe that he can make 81 ont of
80 cents He tells them that it can be
brought about by il free royalty-the
right TO burn and plumber without the in :
preference of the police. But this man
back of Bryan, Governor Altgeld, of Illi-
nois, is far more dangerous than the boy
who is anxious to precipitnte another
civil war.
"Altgeld typides the danger that walks
in the night. He thalks much; breaches
reputation, but who takes every penny
from his en- ployers."
Before closing with 1t second appeal to
his hearers for display of patriotism on
Tuesday next, the commissioner INDUCED
in repetition recent statement to
the effect that the delegates to the con.
vention which nominated Governor Alt
geld were made up of murderers, horse
thiefs, burglars, libertines crooks of all
kinds, men who had been convicted of
crimes ranging from pocket picking to
arson, and from mayhem to rape

will find for Venezuela in the boundary
dispute with Great Britain, and if john
Bull should get obstinate and refuse to
arbitrator grave complication will arise,
with Uncle Sam holding the diplomatic
bag and nothing in but an expensive and
wasting war on behalf OF country that
is bestowing all its benefits on Germans,
who in the dispute with Great Britain
are rather inclined to sympathize with
the latter than with Venezuela. 1t will
all lie we'll in the end, however, for should
the United States ever have to fight TO
uphold the Monroe doctrine, it will he
sure to win eventually, and when once
our position rs arbiter of the destinies of
this continent has been established by
force of arms. all Che lesser nations will
have TO come under the protecting wings
of the American eagle, which would mean
the control and direction of the trade and
commerce of the continent by the aggres
sive and all-powerful Yankee nation.

UNABLE TO AGREE.

Prince Bismarck ana the young Ger.
man emperor are continually having
some little unpleasantness to mar the
serenity of their mutual intercourse.
The latter has shown full appreciation
of the services of the great eX-chancellor
to Germany, but very naturally does not
care to see Prince Bismarck overshadow
his grandfather, the good Emperor Will
liam |. All the world knows what help
the former was in eifectng the consolida.
zion of the German states under the dom
ination of Prussia, but it remembers
also that il was the wisdom OF Kaiser
William III selecting his agents for the
particular work in hand which con.
tributed so efectually to the greatness of
Germany. In other words, while Bis.
marck and Won Moltke were the instru-
ments which reared the German empire
upon the kingdom of Prussia, they would
never have been brought to light but for
the sagacity and foresight of their great
master, William |. The latest trouble
between the prince and the emperor is
the alleged publication OF German state
secrets at the instigation of En- Chaucel-
Tor Bismarck

Bryans presence in Chicago and the
tremendous enthusiasm he is arousing
there have thoroughly frightened the Re-
publicans, who now realize that just
what they feared has happened. They
have been confidently predicting that they
would carry the Windy City by from
$4,000 to $4,000 majo rity, which they said
would insure Illinois to Mckinley; but
the stampede of votes to Bryan has been
much greater than they feared even, and
now they feel that the State is surely
slipping away from them to be given to
Bryan on Tuesday next.

The Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, Il

nois to Bryan in spite of the extravagant
Claims and apparent confidence of Mark
Hanna and his assistants that Mckinley
will receive the electoral vote of that
State. According to the estimate of the
silver leaders. the Telegraph is entirely
correct in its prediction, and if this be
true the Chicago nominee is rs good as
elected; for while Mckinley might get the
electoral vote of Illinois and still be
beaten, the peculiarities Of the canvass in
if Bryan should have majority i'll that
State he will surely he the next President

There WAS n good sized audience at En-
glish's last night and fun rcigned fast
and furious for well on to three hours.
The attraction was the Georgia Minstrcls,

furnished sweet music and entertainment
in plenty. Their singing. dancing and
comic features are exceptionally clever.

WARREN BERRY ROBBED.
Goes Against Parkersbnrg Sharks with
the Usual Result.

The Parkersburg journal of Friday
evening says:
Warren Berry, the we'll known oil
man, had 5000 taken from him last
night, and was attacked by a gang of
toughs, who attempted, from all ap-
pearances, to take his life.
Berry told his story and made his ac-
cusations to DetectiYe Mehen and that
officer went before Squire Jones and
swore out warrant against John Nc
Nerney and Charles johnson, charging
them with running gambling house.
Other warrants will also be issued, al
leging more serious charges
Berry was drinking little and
dropped into Johnson's saloon, where
he took several drinks. He then went
upstairs into room and sat down to
little game of draw poker. He was
beating the game and was over sec
ahead when the gamblers piled him
and struck him with chairs. Berry,
who is a big, brawny, athletic fellow,
made fine defense against the toughs.
During the fight some one took $20C
from his overcoat, as we'll as the $50
worth of chips, which he had on the
table. He says they said they would
kill him and tried to do it, he thinks
He finally succeeded in getting out O.
the den alive. He was badly bruised
and cut on the hands, arms, shoulders
and head. He laid the matter before
Detective Mehen, with the result thai
warrants were issued.
Mr.. Berry is well known in Parkers
burg. He is a jolly good fellow and il
never on the lookout for trouble. HI
is wealthy oil man and regrets tina
the affair became public.
