put the pardon of Mrs. Maybrick on grounds
Of international courtesy she could have
found a precedent in pardon issued by
President Lincoln to an Englshman. In the
spring of 1862 the third of our civil war;
one Alfred Ruberry. an Englishman organ

Under the pretense of acting in the interest
Of Mexico Ruberry had purchased a ship.
arms. ammunition, cannon, shells, fuse,
powder. muskets, knives. etc. The real OBJ
ject Of the expedition was to capture mail
steamships and other vessels plying between
San Francisco and Panama The leader had
selected an island off the Pacific coast as
the headquarters and hiding place of his
piraticaf ship. A crew was secured, false
manifest was sworn to. fifteen or twenty
armed men were struggled on board and the
ship was just getting under way when it
was boarded and the entire outfit seized by
United States officers. The latter were in
formed Of the scheme and kept watch of it
until the time was ripe to make the arrests.
In Ruberry's baggage were found a pro-
ciamation to the people of California urging
them to throw off the authority of the
United States government, also a plan for
the capture of the United States forts at
San Francisco. The evidence was complete
and overwhelming. Ruberry was tried in
the United States Court in October, 1863.
found guilty and let of with the light PEN
atty of fine and ten years Imprisonment.
Shortly afterwards John Bright wrote a
letter to Justice Field asking for Ru-
berry's pardon. The case had been tried be-
fore Justice Field, and he knew all the facts
He doubted whether President Lincoln
would, or ought to, pardon Ruberry, but
he laid Mr.. Bright's letter before him with
his own statement of the case. Upon full
consideration President Lincoln pardoned
Ruberry, and a note to the report of the
case says: 1.-The pardon of Ruberry was
granted as a mark of respect and good will
to Mr.. Bright. by whom 1t had been So
licited." The pardon of Mrs. Maybrick has
been asked for by eminent Americans. but
the Queen has never seen fit to reciprocate
the kindly act of President Lincoln.
The London dispatch says that Ambas-
sador Choate has had two interviews on
this subject with Lord Salisbury, British
premier. at which his representations were
favorably received. In 1892, when Lord Sal
isbury was British secretary of state. he re-
ported adversely on a numerously signed pc
tition for the pardon of Mrs Maybrick say
ing: The secretary of state regrets that
he has been unable to find any ground for
recommending to the Queen any further

Things have changed since 1892, and perhaps
Lord Salisbury may take different view of
the case now. 1t is not in any proper sense
an international question, and yet it has
assumed a sort of international aspect.

TOLERANCE IN FASHIONS.

The Havana Herald Is authority for the
statement that Cuban ladies who lead in
Havana society have issued an edict against
American officers who appear at social
functions in white duck. instead of the regu-
lation full-dress uniform or evening dress.
The Herald fears that II this rule is not
withdrawn American officers will abandon
the society of Cuban bellies rather than suf-
fer the discomforts of the heavy. padded.

does not seem to have entered the minds
of the gentlemen that perhaps the ladies

The Memphis Appeal makes haste to de-
clare that the Bimetallic League does not
claim to speak for the Democratic party,
but processes to be an auxiliary organiza-
ton. 1t adds that 1t can give the party
much assistance. but some of the senti-
ments expressed by leading speakers at
Louisville cannot be Endorsed. One of these
sentiments is noted by the Appeal. as fol-

The chairman, for instance spoke of 1.-The
murder of the Filipinos by the govern

myrot. The United States is at war with
no people. 1t is endeavoring to put down
an insurrection among a part of the Tagal
tribe who constitute only one-half of one
per cent. of the Filipinos. The other nine

pinos are loyal to the flag of their country,

To be shocked at such sights was, in a
way. reflection upon their own refine

Fashion in clothing is SO arbitrary, and
acceptance OF one style or another so en-
tirely matter of custom, that 1t is far
better to accept the prevailing usage in
any country without protest. so long as
clothing is used at all, than for newcomers
to insist that their own customs be fol-

accustomed natives of some Of our newly ac-
quired territories. Some of them, indeed,
would shock our own dear departed grand

When 1t was first announced that Mr.
House. and when a Chicago paper which
claims to speak for the Republican party
declared that the new speaker must be-
Western man, the Journal mildly sug-
gested that ii was altogether better that
the one national party which is agreed Upon
national questions should be represented in
the second Office in the Nation by the man
best fitted for the speakership. regardless
of locality. In regard to the leading issues
there is no difference between the Repub-
licans in New York and New England and
the Republicans in Indiana and Iowa. At
that time the Journal trusted to the ex-
perience and good sense of the Republicans
in the next House to select for the speaker
ship their associate who is best qualified
for the responsible position. regardless of
locality. 1t appears that majority of
them have done so, and, unmindful of the
double-leaded and hysterical dictation of
the Chicago Times-Herald, have come to
the conclusion that General David B. Hem
derson. OF Iowa, is the man who possesses
which are necessary in speaker. While
representatives by delegations were coming
to this decision the Journal did not feel
that they were in absolute need of its adj
vice.

chosen for the position, the contest was not
determined until the vote of the House
caucus had been announced. 1t is also a
testimonial to General Henderson's fitness
that, while his name was not so prom
