Justice Fields Retirement.

Justice Stephen j. Field has at last
resigned from the Supreme Court of
the United States. The court undoubt-
edly loses its ablest member. but it is
doubtful whether the benefit the coun-
try has reaped from his abilities coun-
terbalances the harm that has resulted
from the use to which those abilities
have often been put. In law he was
broadly and deeply learned-so learn
ei that he could easily make the worse

Although nominally a Democrat,
Justice Field has gone farther than
any of his colleagues in defending the
privileges of wealth. No other mem
ber of the court was so vehemently
hostile to the income tax. No other
has had such intimate relations with a
corporation as Justice Field has had
with the Southern Pacific.
Unfortunately the public is not like

which corporate interests have not

successor is likely to have all his par

Stralning Popular Patience.

A short time ago the Times repro
duced an editorial from the Chicago
Tribune which outlined the colossal
scheme engineered by j. Pierpont Nor
gan to gain control of all the great
transportation lines In the United
States. The facts presented were start
ling, although not all of them were
new. Their presentation by the lead
ing Republican paper of the West,
which has usually been, whenever not
a silent witness, an apologist of the
aggressious of corporate wealth upon
the rights of the people, was iudica-
tive of revolt among an honest and
intelligent element in the Republican
party against the wholesale absorption
of the railroad properties of the coun-
try by coterie of capitalists.
What the Tribune raised warning
voice against is Fastening rapidly to-
ward a consummation. Line after line
aud road after road has been purchased
by syndicate of which Morgan is the
chief and directing genius, until he and
his pals already absolutely control 49,
GA miles of trans-continental railways.

Prostitution.

| There seems to be no limit to the ar
rogance of the Hannaites. Never in
the history OF American politics have
such high-handed methods been en-
ployed in an attempt to elect man to
Office as are now being used in Ohio to
send the Republican boss to the Senate.
And the pity of it is that these efforts
have the hearty approval of the Presi-
dent of the United States.
Mr.. Mckinley has not only supinely
submitted to the Pension Bureau being
prostituted at the behest of Hanna by
having branch agency established in
Ohio at this time and for the avowed
purpose of expediting the work of the
bureau to help Hanna; he has not only
made no sign of protest against the
grossest violation of the civil service
rules that has been committed since
those rules were formulated, and per-
mitted Hanna to dragon every em-
ploye of the Government into his po-
litical service; not only he entered no
objection to members of his Cabinet
agreeing to desert their desks and dig
nifty and go to Ohio to plead Hanna's
cause; but the President has signifed
his intention of quitting the White
House for a week in order that he
may go down to Ohio during the clos
ing week of the campaign to the end
that his presence may influence votes
for Hanna.
Aud now the country is further dis
graced by the spectacle of its mail SER
vice being glutted with documents
franked by Republican members of
Congress to Ohio voters, pleading with
them to send to the Senate an individ-
ual who during his brief experience in
that exalted body showed no capacity
for craftsmanship and only a low cum
ming by which he could protect in the
tariff schedules certain interests which
contributed heavily to the corruption
fund he used year ago in the election
of the pliable and affable gentleman
who is now nominally President of the
country.
The disgrace does not end with the
misuse of the mails. 1t extends fur
ther and disenlors the very source of
clean and efficient administration.
Scores of mail carriers are being put
on the forces of various large cities in
Ohio. ostensibly for the purpose of
handling the increased volume of mail.
These carriers were not subjected to
the examination prescribed by the
rules governing the Post Office De-
partnent. but appear to have been Sc
lected solely with the view of giving
employment to men who can be of ben
eft to Hanna in his present great need.
Where this prostitution of the public
service will stop can be predicted only
by those who know the necessities and
sxigencies of Hanna's campaign. Ger
tain it is that the President will not
raise his voice 30 call halt.-St.

Surprise Sprung in the BelIew
Murder Case
A THIRD NEGRO IN CUSTODY
"Red" 0illim Arraigned Jointly With
Warner and Grown
An important Witness for the Prosecution.
''1orphine Msud' OF the Euzznrc's
Roost Also In jail

A surprise was sprung by the police
yesterday afternoon when Manuel
Brown and William Warner, the negroes
accused Of the murder Of James A. Bel
lew on the night of January 23d last were
arraigned in the police court before Just
zee Rossiter. Three prisoners were
brought into court instead of tow and all
arraigned on the same charge. The
third man was also a negro named
George Gillim, but more commonly
known as Red" who has been in GUS
tody since the day after Warmers ar
rest. 1t has been claimed from the first
by the detectives that but two men were
concerned in the crime, and Gillim's
presence came as revelation.
1t is now stated by the officers that.
while Gillim is nominally charged with
the murder, jointly with Brown ard
Warner, he will be dismissed on prellm
mary examination and used as an i'm
portant witness for the prosecution.
friend of Brown, with whom he was con-
stantly in company. While he was not
with him at the time of the killing he
had been seen with Brown earlier in
the evening and. left the city in company
with him on the Monday following the
killing.
He went as far east as Yuma with the
kid" but in that city changed his mind
and took the first train back beating his
way. He had retVrned but few hours
when arrested by Detective Bradish and
smuggled into jail, where he has since
been held q secret prisoner, no one know
;,,,r ,tar a N flowed TO
speak to him. Gillim is said to know
a great deal about the murder, and 1t is
presumed that Brown told him all the
details Of the attempted robbery which
ended so tragically and that ne VIII on
the witness stand repeat the conversa-
tions.
When the trio were brought into court
Warner and Gillim were apparently
composed, but Brown was nervous and
displayed it in his twitching face ard
fingers. None of the defendants had
counsel, and when asked whether or
not they desired an attorney, replied
in the negative. Brown gave his right
name as Emanuel, but beyond answer
ing the few unimportant questions
asked did not open his mouth. Prelim-
mary examination was set fer Thurs
day. the 20th, at p M, ard all the
prisoners were remanded to Jail with
out bail.

case was made yeste day, when a ne
