a discussion of the merits Of the
case of Clarence Dar:ow, the erst-
while attorney of the Mcnamara
brothers, who has been indicted on
charge of attempting to bride
jurors in that celebrated case, it
may not be considered out Of
place to express the hope that the
trial may throw some light on the
important question Of what became
Of the vast sums of money con-
tributed by organized labor to the
Mcnamara defense fund. Several
California unions have Joined in a
demand for accounting. They
claim that nearly million dollars
was collected in California alone
for the specific purpose of liquidat-
ing the necessary expenses of the

WRITER COMMENDS
JUDGE NORRIS FOR
HIS PRIMARY BILL
John Boyle Says Measure
Is Welcomed by Wash
ingtonians.

The following open letter of approval
of the Norris primary bill has been
written to Congressman Norris by John
Boyle, of this city, newspaper man:
Washington, March 90, 1872
&c. W. Norris.
Dear Sir: The people of Washington
owe you a vote Of thanks for intro
ducing your primary bill. 1t makes TOR
honesty in elections, and opens up d
way by which a majority can express
their choice.
I'm Democratic primaries for the last
twelve or sixteen years this has been
impossible. 1t has been one long bac-
Chanalian reVel of bribery, fraud, and
debauchery. NO registration made
this easy. Direct primaries with proper
safeguards will do away with the roar
ing farce enacted every four years
when a convention composed of sixty
six delegates elect six men to represent
the District in the national Democratic
convention, and these six in turn elect Il
national committeeman.
at simply resolves itself into the
longest and most unscrupulOuS money
purse getting the persimmon. Honest
men of all parties have viewed the per-
formances with disgust, They welcome
your bill. Very truly.

The State Department has wired to
the American minister at Peking for
full details of the attack on three
American teachers by pirates near WI
Shan, in the province OF Szechuen, on
the YangtSe river.
The report already made to the State
Department says that one of the teach
ers, named Hicks, was killed, and his
companions. Hoffman and Sheldon,
were wounded.
4 message received here early today
says that Hoffman and Sheldon arc
taking the body of their comrade TO

consul general at HankOw.
Consul +. =. Baker, at ChungkinS.
west China, says in his message to
the state Department that he does
not believe the killing of Hicks and
the wounding of his two companions
was due to any hostile feeling against
Americans as a race.
The bandits, he says, were not affi-
lated with any party. their sole pur-
pose being robbery. The Chinese au-
thorities, Consul Becker reports. are
pursuing the pirates who. IL caught,
will be summarily executed.
The murdered man was the son of
r, f. Hicks, of Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
a message was sent to him this
morning asking him what disposition
he wants made of the body. Other
dispatches from China to the State
Department indicate a chaotic condi-
ton of affairs.
