THE SOL U7TON OF

AMERICAN LOCOMOTfEES
 ON BRTTISH RAIL VA r

We have arrived at 9 new posi- tion of large interest on both sides of the Atlantic, It was expressed very pointedly few days ago by Mr, H A. Ivatt, the able locomo- tive superintendent of the Great Northern Railway, during con versauon with reference to the or ders given by English railways for American Locomotives. "It means, he said. that henceforward Ameri- can builders will be in the field as competitors with British builders for the supply of sneh engines as the British companies themselves cannot build Clearly that is SO. It is virtually proved that, ip eer. tain cases at any rate, American builders eau supply locomotives much more quickly aud somewhat more cheaply than British makers hitherto have done. If experience should furthor prove that the Amer ean-built locomotives are for all practical purposes as good as the British-buiit engiues, the sequel seems inevitable. It Is certainly to be expected ttat, in that case. the British railway companies will pre- fer the makers who supply an equal. ly useful engine and do so more speedily and cheaply. Obviously, then, the present situatiou is one ol absorbing interest for both Ameri- eaa and British builders -C. Rous- Mortea, ,n Tae Engineering Nigga xine for September

The general has render ed an opinion to the effect that cleo tord in special school districts may vote for county uniformity although under tue provisions of the law special school districts are exempt from it's operations. Ia rendering this opinion he reverses his clerk, Mr. Jacobson who had previously decided that speclal districts would have no voice in the matter of county uniformity We believe Mir. Jacobson was correct. There are only a few special school districts in the state The city of Little Rock is special seh9ol district, and DO matter what the vote might be as to county uniformity weshoold be exempt from it's operations aud our school board would select their own books. Why then should we be permitted to say what kind of books should be usea in other districts of the county? Does any sane man be- lieve the legislature intended that votes in special school district not interested should be counted when an election when .he matter to be voted upon does not effect it's eisi- zens one way or tbe other2 We ap- appeal from Attorney-Generai Da yis to Attorney-General Jacobson.

The question of reform is always asserting itself ia any discussion of Chiua's future. China will never reform untlt the pressure from out side compels it. She has withia her the element of strength and viraLitg yet remaining, if only theyi are brought into action, but theY will never be utilized so .ong as foreign natlous are weak and divided at Picking. On the othar asnd, let the principal powers show to China that they mean 10 protect their ia- terests, not only by preserving toe integrity of she Empire, out eY com polling her to institute new conditions in the administration of law, justice, faauce7aud otder Inn portant conditions Of government, and they vii witness tae evolution of the uew China aud the passing Of the old. -Hon.

him to Mr.. Gilmore, General Rosecrans
said:

and coma out at the top of the heap. he
is the best-read man in my army.
Subsequently Mr.. Gilmore found that
Rosecrans' opinion of Garf1eld's extensive
reading was that of the army. Learning
that the chief of staff was holding a
camp meeting ia his room he went there
| The room was filled with division brigade
commanders, assembled to express their
opinions as to the expediency or Tor

been ordered by Secretary Stanton.

TWO SIDES OF A STORY.
Policeman Roberts Criticised and Up
held For An Arrest.


George Myers, butcher employed
by the Utah Strengthening company,
was arrested for drunkenness by Po-
Hceman John Roberts ON the corner of
Main and Second South at 1870 last
evening. Some of the spectators de-
clared that the officer was outrageously
brutal in the way he handled Myers.
Mr.. Roberts, however, asserts that the
man put up an ugly fight on him and
that he did not use him nearly so
roughly as he deserved.
Among those who criticised the Off
GER severely are Attorney E. D. r.
| Thompson and w. p. Lynn, cashier of
! I. R. Jones bank. To a Herald re-
porter last evening they expressed
freely for publication their Indignation
at what appeared to them to be out
.rageouS treatment of Myers and an
utter lack Of self control on the part of
the officer. They said Myers appeared
to be helplessly drunk and could make
no resistance, in fact, being in such a.
condition that he would have fallen
without the policeman's support. They
say Roberts threw him down, letting
his head strike on the pavement with
such force that it was a wonder his
skull was not crushed. Then, accord
! ing to the statement of these gentle
men, the Ofncer cnoked MIN until the
patrol wagon, which had been pre-
viously called, arrived when ne was
lifted like a dead man into the vehicle
| Messrs. Thompson and Lynn say they
know neither the officer nor the man
he arrested, but as a matter of justice
/ and humanity they could not refrain
from pronouncing the officers treat
ment Of the prisoner as grossly brutal.
/ Further they expressed their disap-
prevail of the department in retaining
an officer who can not exercise better
| self-control.
officer Roberts was seen last even
! ing and related the circumstances of
| the arrest. Myers, he said, was intoxi-
! Gated and caused some disturbance,
when he called him to order, but it did
no good, and his arrest became neces-
sary. Whereupon Myers put up a
! fight and attempted to strike the Off
GER, who was compelled to throw him
down and hold him with his knee on
the mans breast. He was putting the
] handouts on Myers when officer Chase
arrived and gave assistance. Roberts
( declares the man deserved much rough
er handling than he received from the
resistance he offered.
Officer Chase said he arrived just as
Roberts was putting on the cuffs and
that Roberts was holding Myers down
with his knee ON his breast. Chase
says Myers, after he was placed in the
wagon. tried to put up a fight by strik-
ing with his pinioned hands

Mrs. Coulter said that she had no
statement to make, except that her
paper was not directed at any one per-
sonally. She gave the manuscript to
the reporter, with full permission to use
it verbatim.
One complication brought forth by
the affair arises from the fact that
Mrs. Fletcher was elected vice presi-
dent of the State Federation, and it is
held by some that in case her resigna-
ton is accepted, the Aglaia would be
without representation in the Fedora
ton.
Mrs. Fletcher, however, belongs to
two other clubs in the Federation and
it is claimed that She is assigned the
Aglaia in the records merely for the
purpose of location. Her resignation
was tabled to prevent the club being
without this representation.
