It was '1:30 a. si. when he began preparing for the lout, Hint not agreat whiloaftor.tbat when ho struck out through the waters of East river ami naraiu iltkl yards to a boat containing friends ami witnesses who would see that lie got the $000 wager tor which his leap had been made. Afier ho had bom rowed ashore and ar rested, this is what Donovan Bald: "I went utralght down?straight as a plumb line?and did not lose my senses all. It attuned along time going down as many minutes as it probably was sec onds? but 1 didn't turn nor ewcrvo from tiiH straight Hue. 1 struck the water with a big clash and went right through. I was well protected with padding, bo that no harm could come to me. When I came up to till! surface, 1 was no more exhaust ed than that I was able to swim a hundred yards or so to tho boat. They pulled me in ami took me to the pier, where 1 was arrested." These remarks were mode In the Crim inal Court room, whither tho uninjured jumper had been escorted by the police. "1 don't want to shake hands with you. I don't think you're a hero at all, but a fraud. Kvon if you did jump as you pre tend, it is nothing to make any funs over, but ouly an ovideuceof how big a fool you are." This wag tho ssluto which ftridge Jumper Donovan received from the bench at the Tombs this evening, when ho reached out to shake hands with Judge Dully, just alter the Judge had fined htm $10 lor "obstructing travel on the bridge," and to|d him he was very aorry to be un able to find Biiuis law Under which a se verer punishment could be inllictud. In tho course of his examination of the bridge policemen and other witnesses, tho Judge was unable to Dud anyone that lmd ac tually Been Donovan make the jump, whereupon lui said: "What is tltere to show that this man may not have got a few men to get a boat and row out under tho bridge, and Ida friends to make a great ado and say that a man had jumped from the bridge? My opinion Is that lie nuver jumped at all." "I think It's a ruBe, subterfuge and a fraud; but thla tiling of going jumping oil bridges and going through rnplds has got to lie stopped, These men pander to tlie morbid taste now prevalent, and are able to live In idleneas.

Latoat Speech iu Maluv. The llwfoat of (iilmoii fur thu l'uii&rv*? ?loiial Numliiatiou-Why Wo Woe p. New Yukk, August L'O.?The following address of the American Free Traders baa been published: To the Friendi of Freedom: The inability of a largo Democratic majority iu thu national House of ltupre suntatives to pass a bill for tariff reform looking only to the removal of a heavy burden of taxation from a few great indus tries and the refusal of the representatives of the Republican party and their allies to even consider the abatement of tariff tax ation in any degree, imperatively calls for aggressive and uncompromising political activity from the friends of commercial freedom. There can ha no doubt that a majority of the American people at pres ent acting in unison with one of the two great political patties are convinced of the practical necessity of taritr reform aud the abandonment of the hitherto dominant policy of the high discriminating aud un necessary taxation. A clear statement of the issue between protectionists and free traders is of itself a demonstration of the truth of the assertion. On the one side tiie advocates of "Pro tection" start with the assumption that under u free and regulation form of gov ernment the power of taxation may bu lawfully used to aid private enterprises and build up private fortunes ou the false plea now demolished by the hard logic of facts, that such legislation betters business and raises wages. For a long period thoy have reduced this assumption to practice by ignoring heavy taxes on articles neces sary to the processes of great domestic industries for the benefit of special inter ests of very small relative importanco of industrial interest to the whole country. TIN PLATE TARIFF. Thus for years past our fiscal policy has been practically dictated by the manufac turers of pig iron, aud tho growers of woo), although the aggregate value of the an nual product o( pig iron and wool is not equal to tho value of the annual egg and poultry crops of tho country, and not to bo compared with the crop of either hay, wheat, corn or cottou. Emboldened by long toleration the demands of these special interests increase in audacity, as is shown in tho recent proposition of Samuel Randall, their Representative, to advance thu duties ou tin plate from oue to two percunt per pouud. This article is used largely for preservation by canning of an excess of our meat, vegetables, fruit, fish aud oil products, which without such treat ment could not be marketed, but would be wRated. The present duty for this and the com missions added constitutes a bounty which would cover the payment of double the wages paid in the tin plato industry in Great Britain. Hut as the foreign manu* facture is conducted at a minimum of protit, thu price of tin plate buing tho low est over known in history, the present tax is regarded us insufficient, and Mr. Kin dall proposes, in apito of an overflowing Treasury, to (ncreaso this tax from $0,000, 000 to an aggregate of $15,000,000, and to collect it by adding to the cost of tho preecrvatlou of meat, fish and fruit, and decreasing our export market accordingly, the udlk pans and cana of every farmer, tho cooking utensils and dinner pail of every workman, and thu construction of every dwelling house and railroad car in the country, and all for the benefit of a few iron manufacturers aud capitalists in l'ennsylvauiu. fc'ltKE TOADS DKMAND]. On tho other side the principles of free traders may bo simply stated as follows: First?'They demsud that tho wholo sys. tern of federal taxation be no reconstruct ed and readjusted that all the taxes which the people pay shall bo received by the Government without the diversion of any part for the fostering of private interests. Secoud?That the promotions and true protection of domestic industry is to be lonnd in the removal ol all taxes from Articles which constitute the foundation or aro ncceBsary to tho processes of our various industries; and that the incidence of taxation be restricted as far as possible to articles which are ready for final con sumption and of which the use is volun tary lather than necessary. Third?They claim tiiu abandonment of tho present high discriminating and un necessary tariff taxes und tho levy of national revenue and comparatively few articles on which taxes oan bo collected with tho least interference with freely ohoaon pursuits of tho poople aro the nocessarv step* to gradually oiisure to tho country "tho full industrial oniployment and high wages of abundant production and low coat, extended markets and n per manent revival of commercial activity. The trade competitors of tho United States are loaded down with dobt and with tho support of great standing armies, which in time eutail a burden of taxation so heavy as to impair their resources, cripple tho energies of their people and increase the cost of tlicir products. K1IBB T1IAI1K PANACEA* To successfully make tho race for trado with tho nations thus hampered it is otlly necessary that tbo people of this country adopt a lax policy dlamolrlcally opposite. Oilier nations niUBt then disband their armies and set their soldlors to work with better wages and bulter subslstenco than they now have to afford them any chance lor competing with a country so rich in resources, oo intelligent and active in re spect to population and so freo in respect to government as the United States. It is for Buch a result that the American Free Trait) League Invites the co-opera tion of the patriotic men of all political parlirB. Tho regent trial of strength in Congress shows that a change of a elngto district In ball of the States from the aide of the protectionists to tho side ol tho freo traders Is all that Is required to reform the revenue system ol tho government, In more than this number of districts a change of leeH than 6 percent In tho voto Will change tho dlstiist. 4 comparatively small number of those opposed by con viction to a policy ol taxation and restriction asserting themselves actually ran thus produce the desired result. It Is therefore ersentlal thai each friend ol commercial freedom in anticipation of tho nominations In his Congressional district shall determine, and as far ?B possible, declare hid determination not to vote for any candidate lor Congress who Is not op posed to a tariff lor protection, except where it la necessary to defeat by electing an avowed protectionist openly, a candi date who slrsddies Democracy by cater ing lo monopolists and traders in special legislation oil the one band while claim ing support from the tolling tax-paying masses on the other. In what caees It may be best to put an independent candidate In the field, and In what othora to abstain from voting must be lelt to tho freo traders of each district to decide for, imi'UAt' pi' unmoy, Mini It rtlrlkm n Wiwlilngloli Corrm|in?i1eitt -kpiiiin'* lliimm. Cincinnati, Auinst 20.?A correspon dent ol the Commerchl-Uatelle telegraphs from Washington! The saddest news re ceived In Washington this year was the announcement of llio defeat nl Kuitace Gibson, ol Wost Virginia, The failure to return lilin shows how blind West Mr glnla li to hsr own lntsrssts. His fins presence, his coitftly bearing, his temper ate habits, and above all his rare eloquence and dignitled and imposing appearance mado him easily the leader on the Demo cratie aide. No one thoughLof contending with hiin for that place, bis right to it was unquestioned. .Early in his Congressional career he de* veloped all the qualities of leadership that made him so fatuous, the wise cau tion when there are breakers ahead, a reckless dash when he knows he has the enemy an the run. And yet there were West Virginians and Democrat* who mocked at him aud called him 14 Useless Gibson" and swore he wus Mno good." And to tmch an extuut have they carried this im? pertinence that they have not only beaten him, but have beaten him with a mau named Hogg. I suppose that it was a piece of smartness of these ribald destroy ers of statesmen and orators to show that they could hsat "Useless" even with a "Hogg," A wretched little Democratic newspaper dowu iu West Virgiuia that cannot appre ciate true greatness declares that if Hogg is elected it will only be a change from nature to name iu their Representative. When the Democrats in the Fourth dis trict realize the fact after election that ueither "Useless" nor Hogg is to represent them in Congress, but that a bright and lively Ke|)ubliean will ably perform that duty, they'will weep tears of repentance. liat what will become of the country while Mr. Gibsou is in retirement? That is what tho people ask in thunder toues. It can only bo sadly auswered that it will try feebly to toddle on for a while without him, Senator Keaaa and Phil Thompson are conducting their book agency very shrewdly. Kuuua declares, so help him gracious, that he will not take a dollar o( money for tho campaign except what iu received in payment for the campaign book at a dollar a book. He prouablv wants to make tho Democrats us much nicker us poesible of the reform tliut keepa Republicans in ottice, and forbids the as sessment of otlicials or the participation of ottlciuls in politics aud all that uu-Jack uonian kind of thing. Hut the book is a shrowd dodge on the part of tho committee to reach tho Gov ernment otlicers and clerks, aud is in real ity an assessment under cover. The book in itself will he of no account. It will be iuferior to the average campaign books, aud will contain noihiug new or etartliug. If it was published by private parties not a hundred copies could be disposed of in the departments. But now the'clerks are expected to (all over themselves in their eagerness to buy copies of this amazing literary monstroeiiy. If ever the devil was whipped around the stump ho is get ting it now, sure. It is pretty certain that clerks who do not buy the book and take u lot of copies will bj remembered.

Lkwiston, Ma., August 28.?Mr. Blaine, in his campaign address hero yesterday, advocated the policy of protection as agaiust that of free trade. Among other things he said that we only needod to pro tect those products which were brought into competition with thoso of other nations. Numerous urticles, like tea and coffee, which we could not produco in our climate, were not taxed and were placed on the freo list.

On this are, or rather were, a dozen plain but stiougly built houses, with walla of yellow brick, roofs ol slate and strong iron doors. These houses were magazines in which the built of the powder supply for Chicago wut stored. A few people of tha humbler class built their poor homes on the prairie close to the warehouse containing the deadly Btutl'and lived without f jar .of any disaster from their proximity, Wight in the midst of the magazines rose the home of M. J. Tieruey, f'olice Magistrate of the Town ol Like, in the limits of which corporation tfis warehouse stood. The house was, until to-day, an attractive looking dwell ing, two stories high with a spacious ver anda in front, and surrounded by a num ber of substantial outhouses. It over looked the Archer road, about forty feel away. Three hundred feet northwest ol the Tterney residence was a little cottage rudely built, surrounded by sheds, slablea and Hog pens.

I'iiii.ADbi.i'UiA, Pa., August 28.?The A'ittuia Express Company lost ?23,003 from a safe on Thursday, August l'J, and Hath Pratt, a clerk, is under $15,000 bail on sus picion of having atoleu thu money. Owing to the large amount stoleu, the ofliclala of th* company took extra precautiona to keep the robbery secret while the ciroum etuticas were being investigated, aud it was only to-day that the matter leaked out. Shortly after 3 o'clock on the afternoon of the lU;b of August, Pratt and a fellow clerk named Heath called at the Pennsyl vania railroad ollice, at Fourth street aud willing alley, aud received the money. There were three bags, containing $1,000 each in silver, the b-iluncu of the $20,703 being greenbacks, sealed in package. The inouey was to be shipped tu the Mineral Mining Company, at bharuokin, Pa., and was for the purpose of paying off the em* ploveson the following Saturday, When the clerks reached the AdamB Express ollice, at 022 Chestnut street, they took the package into the money room, where they were received by Chief Clerk Dallas Crow. A few minutes after 4 o'clock Pratt made out the way bill, and after Crow had checked the way bill oil' he nlaced the money in a safe. The safe was lying in a corner of the room, wheu the Chief Clerk told Pratt at 4 :U0 to seal it. The money safe is about two feet square. It has a lock and a door uu the top, and in addition to the lock the door is also fastened by a wire. A leaden seal encircles the wire, tho seal being equeesed on by a sealing iron, bearing a ?no with the impression of the company's deal. Thu key is also sealed in a heavy envelope. Pratt was alone when he sealed tho sife, which was a violation of an impera live order, directing that before a safe is closed another clerk shall examine the contents, and eee that they are all right. Pratt hud never before disregarded the or der. He had sealed the Hunbury safe the same day, in the presence of another clerk; but ho fixed up thu bhainokiu safe unaided. When the oafe left the ofllce it woe taken directly to the leading Hail road station at Thirteenth and Callowhill streets, and was constantly under guard during tho Journey on thu rails. Whon the iron treasure box was oponed in the express ollice at bhamokiu the clerks lound tho package missing. Thinking the package had been mislaid in the Chestnut street ollice, a telegram was at onto sent to Philadelphia. After a thorough search, it was not lound. The safe had not been tampered with on the way to bhamokin. and the oillciuls concluded that the thief was in the Philadelphia ollice. On.Friday, the next day, Detectivo Wil liam B bpittall was called in by the ofll cials of the express company. On Wed nesday last he arrested Pratt. The clerk was greatly surprised when he was taken in charge by the detective. He made a vigorous deuial of the intimation that he knew what became of the missing pack age. Ho said that the money was iu the safe when he sealed it.

Nachcvics, the Bulgarian diplo matic ageut, will explain to him every thing. The Bulgarian nation and army longingly await the Prince's return. Prince Alexander started at 2 o'clock this afternoon by a special train for I.om palauka, by way of Bucharest and Ginr gevo. l'Voin l/wipalonka he will proceed to Sofia. It Is not settled yet what route he will tako to reach that city. Before leaving Lemburg the Prince consulted an eminent physician. Tho Porte has expressed its willingness to adopt tho view of the Bulgarian Com mission in connection witli the revision of tho orgaulu statuto. It is proposed to elaligrate a new statute, to consist of three parts, the first dealing with the rights of tho Sultan, tho second with internal ad ministration, and the third with finance, railways, passports and customs. The Porte wishes to add a fourth section, deal ing with the position of foreigners and with capitulations. Tho Governments of Germany and Austria consider that the recent events in llulgaiia impose on Eng land chiefly the duty to take tho Initiative in nny foreign action for the settlement of Bulgarian affairs. This opinion has been officially communicated to the Porte. The Russian papers hope thatthe inter view between Prince Bismarck ami M. Do (Hers, the Russian Foreign Minister, will hasten a settlement of tho Bulgarian diffi culty. Tho eventual return of Prince Alexander, they say, might increase the difficulty for Germany. Tho (JnMtr, of St, Petersburg, advises Prince Alexander not to rosume tho government of Bulgaria, as such a step would only result in a second and laoro decisive ovorthrow, A courtmartial in Sofia, for the purpose ol trying tho leaders of the cou/i d'tlal which resulted In tho deposition ol Prince Alexander, has rendered a verdict con demning M.
