MACVEAGH'S DENIAL. The friends of V. R.* MacVeagh, of this city and they include all who know him, join him in denouncing what they call a vile conspiracy to defame him. The story was printed in the hews col umns of the Glore yesterday morning, from Freeport, 111., the home, of Mr. MacVeagh, and shows a well worked np scheme, according to the claims of himself ..and friends. ; Nobody in St. Paul who knows Mr. MacVeagh will credit for a moment the charge that em anates from St. Cloud. Mr. Davis, of the firm of Beaui-rk. Kkogh & Davis, by whom Mr. MacVeagh is employed, is most earnest in declaring the charge a base and insane fabrication, and warmly asserts that he stands too high in the estimation of the •firm to be injured by any con cocted story whatever. Mr. MacVeagh is highly grieved and indignant, and was amazed that any credence should have been given the tale. He says the woman at St. Cloud is insane, with an idiosyncracy for claiming him as her husband, and that he is fully prepared to establish this fact and vindicate him- \ self. He will at onco take steps to do so, and his friends have every confi dence that a few days' time at most will completely wipe away the effect of the : story. ' To a man of business and the father of a family, such a charge takes on the most serious aspect, and Mr. Mac- Veagh will not only proceed to remove the cause and crush out the story, but will move 111*011 the originators' and com pel them to a vindication. ADMITTING THE TERRITORIES The prospect lor a solution of the ter ritorial problem in congress is brighter than we had anticipated, and yet we are not over-sanguine that a satisfactory agreement will be reached. It was evi dent from Saturday's proceedings that the members of both houses were be coming impressed with the fact that it is practical statesmanship, and not partisan zeal, the country wants to see exhibited by congress in its treatment of this question; So deeply has this im pression seated, itself in the congres sional mind that the Republican sen ators were frightened into concession, while the high-strung Mr. Springer re laxed his tension, and for the first time in two years manifested a disposition to climb down from his perch. While things look brighter for the territories now than at any previous lame during this congress, there are still too many shoals upon which this admission bill may be stranded to be entirely confi dent of its passage. Whatever has been done in the way of concession and com promise has been done grudgingly by both sides. It has been done under the stress and pressure of public sentiment, and not because the managers of the two houses wanted to do it. The He publican senators are keeping still in the hope the Democrats in the house will yet give them some, pretext for flying the track, and -tints let the question go over to be settled in the next congress according to straight Re publican ideas. This would be a most unfortunate turn of events for the ter ritories, for if the Republicans force a postponement for strictly partisan pur poses, then the Democratic minority in the next congress would feel justified in presenting every obstacle to the accom plishment of Republican; plans. We know what a strong minority can do in the way of blocking legislation when it takes a decided stand. It would be in finitely better all around : to have this territorial question settled' by this con gress; and now that it seems to be in easy reach of settlement, the friends of the territories ought to bring every in fluence to bear upon congress to secure the agreement of the conference com mittee on a bill that will receive the ap proval of both houses. THE DISTRICT JUDGES. It does not necessarily follow that Gov. Merriam will confine himself in his appointment of judges for the Ramsey county district to the list of names submitted by the bar associa tion, but it is fair to assume that he will give respectful attention to these sug gestions, and, everything else being equal, will be governed by the wishes of the Ramsey county bar. Still, the form in which the recommendations are made does not simplify the situation so far as the governor may have experi enced any embarrassment in naming proper judges. The four names sub mitted to the governor's considera tion are so eminently proper, • and each one of the * distinguished lawyers named in this connection possesses such -a 7 peculiar fitness for the judicial office, the governor will find it difficult to make selection of, two out of the. four! The Globe has' no dis position to obtrude itself as an adviser in the executive councils, yet we cannot refrain from reminding the governor, that at the late judicial election in this , district' the voters expressed such a de cided approval of the proposition to main tain a non-partisan bench, his duty now certainly lies in the same direction. The appointment of any two of the gentle men nominated by the bar association, whether the- two Republicans or the two Democrats, would be acceptable to us and satisfactory to the people of this district; yet in deference to public sen timent, as it has been most emphatically expressed, we feel sure that the gov ernor will see his way clear to follow . our suggestion with respect to preserv ing the non-partisan feature of our dis trict court. — -a-. — PROTECTING THE DOCTORS. The medical fraternity in Wisconsin is urging through the legislature laws similar to those secured in some ether states, restricting the vocation to those who have passed certain examinations and secured license. A similar meas ure was adopted in Kentucky not long since, and at once competition was ex cited between rival institutions to equip applicants for the attainment of the necessary license in the most economi cal and rapid way. It was an exten sion of something like the examination tests that are being outgrown in the school systems. By its process men would become doctors, indorsed by the state, with no substantial and enduring knowledge of medicine. In other pro fessions the consequences are not likely to be serious if the practitioners have scanty acquirements, but in medicine and surgery it is desirable that some thing shall be known of the human sys tem and of the effects of medicines and : processes. Legislation on this line 1 should not be solely in . the interest of the profession. , _'v -' NICARAGUA CANAL. : The passage of the Nicaragua bill by both branches of congress, "with the circumstances and explanations attend ant, seems to w arrant the anticipation that the great work will be pushed to early success. - The act becomes void if it is not undertaken jin good faith within three years.

The pushing of this scheme in so prom ising a "way will rbe likely to add to!' the difficulties that are wrecking the Pan ama canal. '7 "'.'■_ -."' ""- .." NATIONAL DIVORCE LAW. The necessity for a uniform law on the subject of divorce is exemplified by a case, or '•■■rather; a. multiplication of cases, on the -docket of a Pittsburg court. - Charles Kohlmeyer married a 'wife in Germany who ran away from him and came to this country. Subse quently Mr. Kohlmeyer emigrated and settled in Ohio, where, under the laws of -that state, he obtained a divorce from his wife on the ground of deser tion. Not knowing her whereabouts., the notice of the divorce proceedings was served upon her in the usual way by publication in the newspapers. Later, Mr. Kohlmeyer moved to Pitts burg, where he engaged, in the real estate business and accumulated a fort une. During his business career a great deal of real estate passed through his hands, and consequently the title to a good part of the city at one time and another was in his name. Now Mrs. Kohlmeyer turns up, and, claiming that under the laws of Pennsylvania the divorce proceedings in Ohio are in-' valid because of the failure to give her proper notice, asserts her • right of dower in alf the estate at any time held by her husband during his lifetime. The Pennsylvania law is just as she claims it to be, and all the court can do is to refer the case to the master in chancer} 7 , with instructions to ascertain* what property Kohlmeyer had ever owned in Pittsburg, in order that the widow's dower right -may be settled. The result is a confusion of titles and ho end of litigation, whereas a uniform divorce law would have obviated all this trouble. —i EXPERT TESTIMONY. The value of expert testimony was strongly questioned in the recent Raw so:** trial In Chicago. Insanity was the plea of the defense, and the lawyers on that side put up a job on the expert witness by manufacturing cases and pretending to read them out of a stand ard work. The expert professed to re call the cases read, and added some de tails. Still, this instance rather illus trates the fallibility of the memory than the uncertainty of expert evidence. Trials where insanity is pleaded are apt to bring out the fact that medical knowledge is too uncertain and limited for any approach to exact science. «•**-■ The American colony in Paris is not so numerous as generally supposed. All foreign residents have recently been required to register with the police, and out of 170,262 that reported, but 2,302 were Americans. Even Spain has 2,703. There were 2fi,109 Germans, 25,144 Swiss and 24.178 Italians. The German element is only exceeded by the Belgian, and no doubt is kept under special scrutiny. * The Canadian Pacific is spoken of by the New Yoik Sun as "a subsidized alien railway." It will be remembered that Vice President Morton was a di rector in this road when he was nomi nated last summer. It does not look just right for monopolies fostered by alien powers to have their agents in high stations in this country, but of course it is right, as the peoplo voted that way." . •*•*•» It is fortunate for the members of the legislatures in states like Illinois and Wisconsin that the liberality of the railroads enables them inexpensively to spend two or three days each week with their families, and thus secure relief from the excessive toil that breaks down so many of our statesmen. There are other state houses that have lurking perils of this sort. THE WASHBURN BLAST. Mr. Washburn— mean the seven teeu-million-interest-and-discount Wash burn who was recently railroaded into the senate— said in an interview in his organ, the Tribune, that Sabin's follow ing was made up of "mercenary men, the political strumpets." And good Brer Heatwole takes umbrage at it. A man who meets a charge of bribery by saying that it *is only "satan rebuking sin," confessing that he bribed but the others did also; a man who prides himself so on his deft ness as a bribe-giver that he can "defy the most searching investigation," yet whose supporters dare not even permit the evidence of his bribery to be given to the public but smother it in the sen ate, is hardly a man who can offer an insult to any decent, self-respecting man.— Caledonia Argus. It seems almost incredible that any man should so degrade himself as to make use of such insulting and wholly uncalled-for language. We have waited a number of days in the hope of seeing Mr. Washburn's denial ot the reported interview, but as yet none has been made, ami we cannot do less than to ac cept the article as the words of Minne sota's newly elected -senator.— Heron Lake News. T . Senator Washburn, in a recent inter view stated that he "should have' been prouder to have been defeated with the men who aided him," than to have-been elected by the aid of men like Sabin's friends, or words to that effect. It is ex tremely ungentlenianly and unkind for a victorious candidate to use such lan gvage. For one, we Would rather go down with a man like Senator Sabin, than float on top with an icicle.—Slay ton Gazette. 7- 7 •**■*•» _ WET OR DRY. Though we have no faith whatever in prohibition at this time, the people gen erally desire to have a say on it, and their wishes should . not be smothered by a few carping politicians who hap pen to be in the legislature for one term.— Barnesville Review. The News is a firm believer in the present high license system, which is surely the best practical temperance legislation for our state, but it. is in favor- of giving the whole people a chance to settle the matter at the polls, . and ceitainly the legislature should ac cord to them that privilege and right.— Le Sueur News. The one thing we would prefer to see our legislature do is to strengthen and broaden the efficacy of local option.This is the most effective method of coralling" the rum power at present. Besides being effective where carried, it is a highly educative medium. It is the natural successor to high license, which has accomplished all its advocates claimed for it.— Mankato Register. ""■ The temperance question is before the legislature and the" Republicans are wrestling with the subject, certain "to be damned if .' they * do, and damned if they don't," in dealing with it. That party has -always posed as the one in charge of the morals of the nation, but when it comes to submitting the ques tion of a prohibitory amendment to a vote of the people they are afraid of the. possible result and the probable loss of votes in the future.— Red .Wing Argus. The present high license law gives great satisfaction to the people of the state, with ' the exception of chronic cranks. It should not be tampered with.

The naval appropriation bill is the only bill from the appropria tion committee now on the calendar of the senate. The sundry civil bill is now lindei* consideration in . the com mittee, but it will hardly be reported before the end of the week, and it will not be taken up for consid eration until the week following. Sen ator Hale intends to call up the naval bill to-morrow, but as Senator Evarts desires to make a speech on his report on the Texas outrages matter, Senator Hale will give way for a time for that purpose.- It is the intention of Senator Cullom to call up the conference report on the proposed amendments to the in terstate commerce act Monday or Tues day. It will be debated at some ten-gib, as Senator Sherman is anxious that the senate should recede from its disagree ment to the house amendment providing that oil in barrels shall be transported as cheaply as oil in tank cars. The dis cussion of the appropriation bill and - the CONFERENCE report may postpone the further consideration of the Pacific railroad funding measure until the end of the week. Senator Hale will call up his census bill about the middle of the week if possible. Meantime a caucus of Republican senators will be .held and some deter mination reached as to the time for the consideration of the Chandler resolu tion, for the investigation of election outrages in Louisiana. . On Wednesday both houses will meet in the hall of the house of representatives to count the electoral vote. No legislative business will be transacted on that day. In the house during the coming week there are many reports and bills that that will be brought forward for consid eration, Monday is District of Colum bia day, but district matters will un doubtedly be subordinated. Mr. Crisp will endeavor to call up the Small- Elliott election case. This will proba bly occupy two days..

This win likely cause debate. Mr. Peel has the Indian appropriation bill ready to report, and desires, if possible, to -call it !up • Thursday. It is | barely possible that Mr. Cowles'. bill. to ; repeal the* tobacco tax may, be. reported from the appropriations committee; in which* event its consideration will be demanded 1 by.* Mr. Cowles at once. -Several night sessions have already been ordered, and it is probable that the house during the coming week will be working night and day to -dispose of urgent legislation. The appropriation bills, however, are more advanced than usual, which gives more time for other matters. Several bills tire in conference, : and reports upon these are of the highest privilege. Sev eral of them will doubtless be presented during the week, the most important being that upon the admission of terri tories. An intimation is made that the itepublicans will not long insist upon the present status, and that an agree ment will be reached by which the ad mission of South Dakota at least will be provided for in a manner satisfactory to its residents. As the days of this con gress diminish in number, a feverish haste begins to manifest itself among members of the house to secure action upon pressing matters of legislation. Every facility is given for the passage of appropriation bills, and measures of general importance are brought for ward to the exclusion of .minor affairs which would ordinarily have THE RIGHT OF WAT. So far as the programme for the com ing week is at present made "up; it in cludes possible action upon such inter esting matters as the report of/the con ferrees on the territorial' bilU which is believed to affect the probabilities of an • extra session); the Edmunds Panama resolution, which will involve a discus sion -of the * Monroe doctrine, and a re port of Mr. Ford's committee on"' immi gration, which will afford an v oppor tunity for a presentation of the evils of the contract labor system. The post office appropriation bill now pending will be disposed of early in the week, leaving only the Indian -and deficiency appropriation bills 'to bo acted" upon ; originally by the house. With the ex ception of the military academy bill, not one of the regular appropriation I bills has yet been sent to the president for •; ids signature. Notwithstanding; this fact, their condition is generally ■favorable .as compared with the progress .made at this date in other short ses sions, and tne work is particularly well advanced iv the house. The following j named bills have passed ; both - houses ami are either in conference or ap proaching that stage: The District of Columbia, consular and diplomatic {pension, fortification and -^legislative jbills. The sundry civil, army, "naval land-agricultural bills have passed the house: the postoffice and river and .har bor bills await the action of .that body, andrthe Indian and deficiency. bills will probably be reported for action this week.

The counting of the negro vote in states and cities where the race is in the majority, simply means the domination of such cummunities by the negroes, and that would force all the whites to sell their property and go elsewhere. Such an unfortunate condition of things could not benefit the balance of the Union. There is no way to meet this grave question but by the local govern ments themselves. I do not believe that Gen. Harrison thinks any federal legislation can meet the emergency. If he does, he will soon find out his mistake. Gen. Harrison is a strict par tisan, but I don't believe he has any idea that he can force upon the South any legislation that would not be meted out to the North."

Chicago, Feb. 10.— The Times to morrow will print along letter from President Perkins, of the Chicago, Bur lington & Quiney, analyzing the West ern railroad situation. He ridicules the idea that the subordinate officials are respensible for the frequent demoralization of rates. If there is any blame to be attached to railroad man agers it belongs, be says, to the head, and not the subordinates. That the managers are anxious to maintain rates he does not think there is any question, but it remains to be seen, he says, whether the present effort of the presi dents to provide for this . with out arranging to. .divide . the 'traffic and to compensate the weaker lines will work any better now than in the past. If not, he thinks that some way must be found to make a di vision and to pay the weak lines, and if this cannot be done without the help of congress, that help must be obtained or railroad property will continue to suffer until the weaker lines are worn out and sold to the stronger at half their cost. It is Mr. Perkins' opinion that if the railroads were left free to work their own salvation they and the public would fare better. . ** _ CLEVELAND'S COUSIN Delivers a Sermon to Which Har rison Listens. .

The latter is a cousin of President Cleveland, and was one of the strongest opponents of the proposed denunciation of the inauguril ball by his church, and was instrumental in bringing about the | change of purpose which resulted in dropping tho matter. Dr. Cleveland called upon many of his brother pastors in person and urged that the pro posed action be abandoned, as it would be distorted into a "reflec tion upon Gen. Harrison, and, ; be sides, looked like an effort to hold him responsible for a thing which was en tirely beyond his control. Gen.

Mr. Tewksbury lost his wife some time ago, and * promptly be gan to look among the sisters of the church for another to fill her place. His choice fell upon Miss Vir ginia Plielan, the pretty sister of the comedian, Edmund T. Plielan. The pastor at once announced his engage ment to the church.

It is proposed to drop all unnecessary passenger trains and all local trains will .be run on slower time schedules. A large num ber of employes will be drooped from the pay rolls, and in every way possible the roads will attempt to reduce ex penses.

Chicago News. 7 ; Dr. Mclntyre, the pastor of Grace Methodist Episcopal church, on the North side, recited Foe's "Haven" from the pulpit last night, and recited it, too, with all the elocutionary methods of the lyceum recitationists. ' He winnowed the air with his arms at the proper in tervals, started forward or back as occa sion required, and was high or low in tone according to the sentiment. Thus, he hoarsely whispered "Never more," and, by contrast, shrieked those lines in which the poet characterizes the bird's pet phrases as a lie. In addition to this excellent monologue the preacher re peated the putative remaiks of one "Brutus." who. "by the gods" and with other pagan oaths, berates a certain "Cassias" according to the rather apoc ryphal record of William Shakespeare, the which record is a stage play. : yy 1 As this unusual performance was for the pious purpose of pointing a moral none of the large congregation walked out in the midst of the exercise or felt himself particularly scandalized. Dr. Mclntyre, with" profound acumen; and great cleverness, took Mr. Poe's poem and treated it upon the hypothesis that it was the rhythmic and iatter-day echo of ' the"cry of Jeremiah: "Is there a balm in Gilead?" In other words. Poe was holding the rayless lamp of science to the face of the sphinx called! death, and challeng ing the grim cnigmatist to reveal i>y glance or speech whether there is a life beyond the tomb. He found a subtle meaning in the use of the raven and the "bust of Pallas." Pallas Athena?, with the ancient Greeks, or Minerva, as the Latins termed her, was the deification of human wisdom, and the raven on the other hand, was the accepted symbol of despair. • The preacher naturally demonstrated that the great question could never be answered out of reason's narrow, store, and the end of all such efforts is to leave despair perched upon the brow of wisdom and the querist floored within their joint shadow, as Mr. Poe in con clusion confessed that he was. - The faith of Christ offered in answer, the preacher said, and then he took up his Phardo with a student's obedience, and began to argue "then why this fond de sire?" Inspired writ, reinforced by Poe, Shakespeare and Plato, made a strong array for the pastor's . point, and he convicted his thronging auditors. . A BADLY SOLD TRAMP. He Found a Little Woman Who Made Him Earn His Breakfast. Albany Journal. A duty tramp called at the house of a Bethlehem widow, living alone, about 7 o'clock in the morning, and offered to : saw wood in return for a breakfast. The woman eyed him suspiciously. "Are ye hungry?" she : asked. "Yes sum, hungrier nor a bear." "Well, ye can have yer feed first, I guess." He was given a bountiful meal. -At its con clusion the tramp rose and took up his ugly-looking bludgeon. "I'll keep my eyes wide open tight," he said, grinning. "and if .

Dirty, ragged, dejected and drunk whenever they can get so: tall and short. fat and thin, old and young, handsome and ugly. A melancholy, useless, dan gerous class of unholy vagabonds are the men who apply at the Minneapolis central station for lodging nightly. Down stairs is a huge, barn-like room with a cemented floor and plain board benches around the walls. This is technically known as the tramp pasture, and every night it holds Iftjlf a hundred or more of dirty, hungry wretches who can't raise the dime necessary to secure an equity tor one night only in a cot at a cheat lodging house. They come stringing in by twos and threes, beginning at C o'clock and coming in rapidly until about 10 o'clock, and then there are few arrivals from that time until a few shivering, blear-eyed, hollow-cheeked, rum-racked wretches come in from the saloons just after closing time. They may have suc ceeded in begging a drink or two: if so, they simply thirst for more, while ii none has fallen to their lot, the sight of other men drinking and the smell of liquor has half-crazed them. Each man as he comes In is asked his name and residence, which are entered in a book kept for that purpose, and he is then sent down stairs. REGI.STKKIXG THE GUESTS They give strange names and places of residence, and often it is plain by the hesitancy and uncertainty of a man's speech that he is giving a fictitious name, while John .Smith appears more frequently in the "tramp record" than it does in the directory. These men come from Duluth. Aberdeen, Mason City, Montana and Wisconsin. Very few of tiiem are locals, and a large num ber are men who have been driven out of St. Paul or other cities. Very little is learned by questioning them. They nearly. all tell the same story, if ley condescend to talk at all. A long, hard summer's work in Dakota, a month in the fall spent in threshing wheat, the close of the season, a trip to the city to get work, and boa that point their tales diverge as some have lost money, some have been sick, a few say they were robbed, and still fewer admit their folly and tell of wild routs in evil resorts, and a year's sav ings spent in a few days. None of them admit that they are tramps by profes sion, and few come from a higher grade of society than the great herd of un skilled labor. A MAI'KF.P EXCEPTION to the general rules was Ed McKenna, who applied for lodging a night or two ago. lie was a man of middle age-— nearly 90 per cent of the lodgers are young men— and he had about him a cer- , tain air of dignity, and an evident re pulsion of his surroundings that told Of his having seen better day--, lie looked pained and hurt when asked how he came to be a tramp, and then said al most fiercely: "Voting man, I'll tell you how I* came to be a tramp, for I am one, as you received to infer. 1 came to this country six years ago with sev eral thousand dollars in my pocket. My parents were respectable tradespeople in Dublin and had done very well by me in starting me out in the world. In an Eastern city I fell in. with a crowd of gay young bloods who played faro and bet on the races. They were good fellows, and 1 kept up the acquaint ance till my money was gone: then 1 suddenly realized what 1 had done and the weight of my new position. I knew no trade and had no acquaintance with business; I could never bring myself to inform my parents of the result of my folly, and so I drifted about, doing a little of this and a little of that and never much of anything, and have been getting lower ever since. I have tried so far to keep somewhere near to an honest life, and never actually stole anything yet, though I must plead guilty to having found several articles where the owners might possibly have discovered them again if I hadn't ap propriated them.'' ;7 7 Tin: est at, talk. Arthur Miller, Hailing from Toronto, swore that he , had never been out of work before and had never found it necessary to beg a night's lodging be fore. He had worked on tlie railroad iv lowa all . summer, he said, and beeu cheated out of ids pay.,. It is a very popular,. story with tramps, almost as frequently told as the Dakota and rob bery; fable,- but this young fellow had such a bright, pleasing face and talked with such an air, of conscientious earn-, estness that one couldn't help believing him; but- when he ■ had cone down to take his chances of securing- room to lie down in the jailer .shook; his head sadly, and remarked sagely: „Oh, how , these men do lie. It's awful, man, the stories th-y tell. He slept here half of last winter, so he did; yes, sir. and now hear the yarn about hard work aud rob» bery." ; 7:7 Till; HOTEL AT. MIDNIGHT. Just as Arthur's ragged cloth cap dis appeared down the stairway two rather hard-looking Scandinavians entered to gether. They registered as John Ander son, of Chippewa Falls, and Pete Swan sou, of Taylor's Falls. Both told tho railroad story. Anderson had been sick and Swanson had wasted his substance in riotous living. Neither had a cent, and both looked hungry. And so they come until • midnight or after, and every morning from fifty- to seventy-five penniless wretches, hungry, cold and wear}*,' are turned out to wander in .. the streets, to sit in the saloons and to beg or steal enough food of some kind to keep soul and body together. A more hopeless, aimless, joyless existence than theirs is hard to imagine, and yet the number of this class of men is constant- Iv increasing. What to do with them, how to make them work and how to protect society against such a class are questions that have puzzled economists and philoso phers; but while great men study and think, the great army of the unem ployed receives hundreds of recruits daily.
