-' The death of Gen. . Geo. B. Mc
Allan removes a man who , stood in
the first rank of this country's dis
tinguished and honored sons. " He
was one of the few military command-
Wrt dnrinff the troubluus times
f iwioflrnized the constitution
and respected it enough to subordi-
nate military to civu jwmmm iHJ ,.
it was for this that the Honored; cry
M;d QcminRt. him which finally

resulted in his removal from the
command of the army. He was a
Democrat, and believed that the war
was for the preservation 01 xne
U U1UU ttUtl buav "lu"vi -
mander of the army, he insisted that
this should be kept in view: He re
refused to urge a crusade for negroes
or cotton, respected the property and
rights : of the Southerners agamst
whom he fought, and no plunder and
no smoking ruins marked the line Of
his march. He fought the South, but
he fought as a soldier of duty, hon
orably and chivalrously with nobit-
. terness and no 'enmity :; towards the
people whose armies he confronted,
and was ever ready to-, recognize the
brotherhood and extend the hand of
' fellowship when the fight was over
and the battle decided. Had such
men as he remained in command of
, the armies the outrages and vandal
ism that marked the progress of s the
armies would never have, been a par

Judge Foraker says in his. speeches
that the depression in business is due
to the election tf a Democratic Pres

proof where some i factories in Ohio
"have suspended. ., ; Some oil wejls in
Pennsylvania ; hays, also suspended
'because x the flow of oil suspended,
which is also, frpnv FbrakeVs logic,
to be attributed to the fact that we
have a Democratic 'Administration
now at Washmgton. . .Foraker must
imagine that the people he addresses

Hodges mayor over crown, xu&uvmsb,
bj majority, of about 2,000. The

was heavy; footing up ove6p,000.
There' are 315,000,000 bread con
sumers in Europe. If each one should
eat half a bushel more next year than
4 last the difference would -amount to
157,000,000 bushels. If, then, the
times of depression in Europe "should
pass so that the mass could; afford to
eat all they needed, the difference in
demand might absorb all our surplus
at good prices. ' .
Washington city, is now the attrac

The public interest, however, centres
on New York and Virginia.

this paradise of the Frenchman. .

The Ttlec Question--What 1h
Pcesldent9s Order Means. .
Washington, D. C, Oct. 30.1 The

is taken as the result of a compromise'
between the rice growers and brewr
ers. f This ruling .will hot apply to

will be assessed under the old rule.

London. The trial of. Mr. Stead,
editor of the Pall Mall Gazette and
the other defendants in the Arm
strong abduction case was resumed
today at the Central Criminal Court.
Justice Lopes replying to a question
from the jury as to when the case
would end, said thev might as well
ask the date of the day of judgment.
Mr. Charles Russell, counsel for the
defendants, intimated that the de
fense would close their side of the
case on Wednesday next. Mrs. Re
becca Jarrett, one , of the prisoners,
then continued her testimony. Mrs.
Jarrett v being pressed by Justice
Lopes to answer a certain question
during; the cross examination, swore
that Mrs. Armstrong allowed her
daughter to go with her for immoral
purposes without having any idea as
to what amount of money she would
get. She denied , having conducted
herself immorally with the" husband
of Mrs. Ann Broughton, but admitted
having sent him immoral messages.
Justice Lopes there cautioned Mrs.
Jarret against not answering honest
ly. Mrs. Jarrett admitted that her
letters contained falsehoods and said
Mr. Stead gave : her ten pounds to
procure Eliza. She believed . that
Lily, of the Pall Mall Gazette's story,
was Eliza Armstrong. Mrs. Jarrett
is breaking down under the cross ex
amination. : .
