A rAHAOKAPii in the railroad column
of to-day's Globe, calling attention to
the need of street and sanitary improve
ments between Jackson street and Broad
way, is worthy" of the attention of the
council and health-officer. .'.'./ ".:,- •'•"'.
It is not at all probable. that the pres
ent legislature of New York will be per
mitted to elect United States Senators.
The sooner it adjourns, therefore, the
better it will be for all concerned. The
•ountrr needs a rest from political strife.
According to custom the British par
liament adjourned yesterday to enable
the members to be present at the Derby.
The American Congress is guilty of
may foolish things, but it hardly ever
makes itself ridiculous by adjourning for
a horse race.
Cornell appears in the fight as a
competitor of Conkling. The latter
might exclaim, "Call you this backing
your friends?" All that Cornell is he
owes to Conkling, and his desertion of
him in this emergency is a piece of base
ingratitude.
TnE only part of the New York legis
lature that appears to be solid just now,
is the Democratic wing. They hold the
balance of power between the contending
Republican factions. It is sincerely to
be hoped that they will use it wisely, and
at the first opportunity compel an ad
journment and an appeal to the people.
Since the telephone has become a
necessity the people are waking up to
the fact that a gigantic monopoly has
been fastened upon them. The source of
all power seems to he with the Bell Tele
phone company, of Boston, the entire
country being at the mercy of that organ
ization. Philadelphia is the last city which
is having a tilt with the Boston organiza
tion. The Philadelphians admit that
they are in the hands of the Phillistines,
but they propose to make the service
more efficient by compelling the local
telephone company to eschew poles and
lay their wires under ground. This is
what all cities will ultimately have to do,
not only with telephone, but also with
telegraph and fire aiarm wires. Though
the original expense of the change will be
quite large, the companies will find it a
matter of economy when the wires are
once in position under ground.
CONKLISG'B DEFEAT.
The result of the voting at Albany yes
terday must have been a painful surprise
to Conkling and Platt. instead of the
prompt and emphatic approval of their
course that they expected to receive when
they surrendered their seats, they find
themselves with a backing of only about a
third of the Republican members of the
legislature. Mr. Conkling's vote in the
Assembly was but twenty-six; in the Sen
ate only nine. This is considerably less
than his enemies have been willing to
concede him, and is far less than his
friends have been claiming up to the
present time.
It is tolerably certain that both Conk
ling and Platt will be allowed to remain
in private life for the remainder of their
earthly existence. They cannot hope to
overcome the prejudice that has been
aroused against them, or to combat the
administration with its great enginery of
patronage. It is manifest that this
power has been used at Albany with
greater or less effect. Politicians are not
the unselfish patriots they try to make
the public believe they are. They want
offices, and offices that pay. They are
not worshipers of ideas, or principles, or
men, unless they can be made to pay.
Conkling without patronage to bestow is
not half as great a man as he was when
he wielded the power of the administra
tion in his own State, and persons who
have long been prompt to do him rever
ence in the past have now plucked up
courage enough to assail him.
Though he has appa^ntly fallen in the
fray he is not yet completely beaten, and
may yet succeed in postponing the elec
tion of his successor till a direct appeal
can be made to the source of all power, the
people. He many fare better there than
he has fared at the hands of the legisla
ture. At any rate he will make a deter
mined fight to regain the ground he has
lost, and in his contest will have the
sympathy and best wishes of thousands
who do not at all times approve his
methods or political principles.
Double Murder.
Chattanooga, May 30.— A special to the
Times says there was a double murder a
Bridgeport, Ala., yesterday, twenty miles
from Chattanooga. A tramp named Mehan,
while bathing Sunday morning with some
men, became angered because they spattered
him with mud. He rushed for his knife and
cut Wm. Copeland in the neck, causing in
stant death. The tramp was seized and bound.
While in prison Sam Reese, a cousin of Cope
land, stepped up and shot Mehan dead. Reese
escaped. The cousins are connected with the
most substantial families in the neighbor
hood. 6

The Slasher in Court.
Andrew Orle was arraigned at the police
court jesterday charged with an assault on
Louis Larson and Ole Rosen with intent to io
great bodily harm. The assault took place
midnight Monday in front of Brantberg's sa
loon on Rosabel street, the material points of
the affray having appeared in yesterday's issue
of the Globe.
In view of the condition of Larson and Ro
sen, who were unable to appear, the hearing
was continued to the Bth inst., and defendant
was committed in default of $1,000 bail. A
Globe reporter called on Orle at the jail yes
terday andobtnined his version of the cutting,
which materially differs from the accounts
heretofore published. He stated that he and
friend had been out walking Monday night,
and returaing they sat down in front of the
6aloon and talked about getting work.
While thus engaged they were approached
by Larsen and Rosen, who were drunk, and
one of whom carried an iron bar under his
coat. The fellows were noisy, and the one
with the bar nourished it in his (Orle's) face.
The latter told him to go away, when the
stranger grabbed him by the threat. Orle
then attempted to run off, and in so doing he
stumbled and fell. The men pitched on to him
and he drew his knife and commenced to cut
while they were pounding him.
Dr. Diedolph stated to a Globe reporter
yesterday that neither of the men were danger
ously injured.
They Married.
Though she be obdurate in seeming yet will
her temper be as yielding and sweet as April
weather.
Last week John Johnson, a bright looking
Swede youth, was arraigned at the police court
upon the soft impeachment of a good-looking
and tidy girl named Nellie Nieberg, who
charged him with being the author of a pock
et edition of humanity born last January.
She wanted $500 to square the thing, and,
refusing to marry him, the swain was com
mitted to jail, not having the sum demanded.
Yesterday she repented of her action,and being
pained at the plight of her lover, she 6ent
word that her heart did long for him, even as
the kine longeth for the running water. Her
desire to marry him was communicated to
Judge Burr, who expressed a willingness to
tie the knot.
The ceremony was performed at 10 o'clock
by hirzoner in the presence of a very small
but select audience. Fairchild, the clerk, upon
whom devolved the pleasure of giving away
the bride, wore a four-dollar smile and looked
as serene as a basket of chips. The bride
looked sweet enough to kiss, and the young
fellow was altogether happy. Judge Bun tied
the knot in grand style, and the Globe envoy
extraordinary gave the children his blessing.

was prostrated with rheumatism until life be

faith in the efficacy of anything to afford re

of the oil, made him a present of a bottle, and,
to Frank's wonder and delight the first appli

Fortune Bay Fisheries Award.
Washington, May 80.— Secretary Blame
md Sir Edward Thornton concluded Saturday,
the prolonged negotiations in regard to the
outrages upon American fisherymen at For
tune Bay, January, 1878, and at a later day at
Aspee Bay, Cape Breton, the American claims
for losses by several fishermen aggregating
1103,000. The agreement between Secretary
Biainc and Sir Edwa rd Thornton, is that the
British government shall pay -315,000 in gold
coin and this government will give a receipt
in full. The money will probably be paid
some time this week and be promptly distri
buted among the rightful owners. Nearly
the whole amount goes to Gloucester, Mass.
%»iles.
Piles are frequently preceded by a sense of
weight in the back, loins and lower part of
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times symptoms of indi
gestion are present, as flatulency, uneasiness
of the stomach, etc. A moisture like perspi
ration, producing a very disagreeable itching,

Officer Reardon in arresting a brute by the
name of Prescott Wade, Monday evening, had
one of his fingers bitten off by the fiend in hu
man flesh. The man was drunk at the time
and refused to be taken, and in the squabble
he got the officer's finger in his mouth and
bit off the end of it. He should have had his
inhuman body perforated with lead.
Monday night the Jessee family got on one
of tfceir periodical uprisings. They and some
of their neighbors havo been having trouble
for some time. Last spring Mrs. Jessee and
oae of the girls were sent to the county jail
for thirty days. It seems that Monday night
the old woman, two of the girls and one boy
armed themselves with a shovel and an axe and
other things and made a raid upon one of the
neighbors by the name of Mrs Schruel. They
hit Mrs. Schruel in the face with the shovel
and in the back of the head with the axe, cut
ting an ugly gash and one that may prove fatal.
The whole party was arrested and bound
over to appear before the grand jury, which is
in session, and at the present writing are
considering their case. They are a very bad
family and something should be done to put a
stop to their work,as the people living in their
neighborhood are not safe. We understand
that a small child had its arm broken in the
fight. It seems that they went for blood and
succeeded in getting it.
Yesterday morning at about 3 o'clock a
prisoner by the name of A. A. Watson at
tempted to commit what might have been a
murder and suicide had he not been prevented
by a fellow prisoner. Weeton is a life con
vict and was sent from Blue Earth county for
deliberately shooting his wife. He has been
in poor health for some time and at times has
not been considered sane, but he has never
been violent, but always peaceable and obedi
ent. Owing to his poor health he has been
allowed to sleep in the hospital nights and
during the day he has worked around the cell
room. He did not appear any different Mon
day from what he always has and has never
given any cause for suspicion that would
show that he was any way dangerous.
On Monday night he retired as usual, as like
wise did the rest. At about 3 o'clock a noise
was heard by one of the prisoners, who was
sleeping near another prisoner by the name of
Nims, and he immediately jumped up and took
Weston off from Nims. It appears that Wes
ton had gone to Nims' bed and had a knife in
his hand. At first he attempted to strangle
him, but Nims, being a stronger man, had
succeeded in getting loose from hishold,wheri
Weston struck at him with the knife, inflict
iufi a slight scalp wound. By this time the in
mates of tne hospital were aroused and came
to Nims' relief, when Weston ran back to his
own bed and made several thrusts at himself,
cutting several def p gashes in his neck, but
bow badly h \ is hurt is hard to tell at this
time.
Weston i 6 a man about 46 years old and has
been a prisoner some four years. He has nev
er had any trouble with Nims on any occas
sion to do as he did even if he was insane. It
is very evident that his purpose was to com
mit suicide, as he left a note directed to the
warden in which he wished the warden to
send his body to his brother who lives in Blue
Earth county. It was a very close call for
Nims, and at the time caused considerable ex
citement.

Stocks — The stock market opened weak and
in the main lower, and in early dealings prices
declined X to 3% per cent. Pacific Mail,
Canada Southern, Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul, Chicago & Northwestern, Metropolitan
Elevated, St. Louis & Iron Mountain and Lake
Shore led the downward movement. After
first board speculation became firmer, and
there was a recovery of % to 2 per cent., but
was subsequently lost, and market continued
feverish and unsettled during the afternoon.
In the final dealings a firmer tone prevailed,
and the market closed at a recovery of % to 1
per cent, from the lowest point. The volume
of business was less than on any day for
weeks past.
The Evening Post money article, comment
ing on the monetary situation, says the treas
ury will to-morrow begin payment of quarterly
interest on $250,000,000 of 4* per cent, bonds,
the amount being $2,812,500. June 4th the
regular quarterly payments of pensions begin.
These are about $36,000,000 per year. Of the
$'.),()00,000 quarterly payments probably about
$4,500,000 will be disbursed at the sub-treasury
here. There are, in addition, important pay
ments expected on account of arrears of pen
sions, but figures cannot be given. The inter
est to August 12th on $250,000,000 registered
5 per cents, which have been extended at 33*
per cent., and which interest amounts to $35,
--000,000, also the interest on whatever of the
coupon 5 per cents which have been forwarded
for extension, will begin to come out very
soon. The major part of these sums should
come out of the treasury in the first half of
June. The only extraordinary payment to be
made to the treasury is $500,000 for principal,
and $20,000 for interest on registered bonds
of the Nashville & Chattanooga railroad com
pany, which, ten j'ears ago, were given to the
government in settlement of accounts of the
government ivith that company during the
late war. This money will to-morrow be
paid into the treasury for the Nashville &
Chattanooga company by the Louisville &
Nashville. From this statement it will be seen
that during June the disbursements of the
treasury will be important, and in July the
ordinary disbursements are large, and those
will be supplemented by $16,000,000 to be
used in redemption of 6 per cent, not extended
at 3* percent. There may be $15,000,000 of
coupon os which will not be extended, for
which cash will also be paid by the treasury,
and in addition to those amounts $65,000,000
to $70,000,000 of cash to be expected from the
treasury before Congress meets, on account
of registered 5 per «ente which the treasury
decided dot to extend at any rate of interest,
but to pay outright. It will therefore be seen
there are extraordinary reasons in the shape
of gold imports early in the year, and the treas
ury operations since, the main effect of which
latter is yet to be felt, for an easy money mar
ket next month, even if the volume of business
and speculation should exceed the large total
of late years.
