IhiiMiMiiiAM, Ai.a., Keennber 2d. The
killing of Alex. Webb yesterday nt Clem

be an Utfly rase. Morrison was exasper
ated because Webb anil several other men
locked in the store told him they bad no
key and could not admit him. He lx'trail
to abuse the men inside in the most of
fensive terms. Webb thereupon threw a
mallet through a window at Morrison,

in half an hour.
The remains were
brought here and buried. AV ebb's father,
who lives here, has oll'eroJ $500 for Mor
rison's capture. The Governor lias been
petitioned to offer a reward. Morrison,
in his Might, overtook an old man against

nearly to death. Clement's is forty miles

DEFECTIVE FLIES.

Aitid lo INtshess Thin t'ntilt
An alarm of fiie was simt in yesterday
on account of what at first appeared to le
a very seiioii.s affair, but turned out nt
last to be all smoke. A domestic at the
residence of Mr. James Flaherty, No. IKS
I'nion street, noticed smoke issuing from
cracks in the window-facing and from un
der the house, and naturally concluded
(hero was a blaze somewhere beneath the
lloor or in between the plastering and
weatherboard ing. As soon as Chief Cleary
arrived he divined the cause, and a rapid
investigation proved his surmises to be
correct. Owing to a defect in the brick
work about the fireplace, the smoke had
an outlet through the plastering to
tho window, which was several feet
awav and issued thence through the
cracks. It was only necessary to extin
guish the lire in tho grate to prove the
correctness of the theory. In a conversa
tion with an Aci kal reporter Chief Cleary
said this was not an uncommon occur
rence, but on the contrary such instances
w ere frequently met w ith. He then men
tioned a number of handsome residences
which he said possessed this delect. "The
fault," ho said, "lies entirely with the
brickmason, and 1 have noticed that this
rarely occurs except in handsomely lin
isheii houses. The workmen are anxious
to make a smooth job one that will
show up well on the outside and to do
this are often careless about putting in the
proper tilling behind the bricks."
To such an extent has this been carried
that Chief Cleary has had a number of
requests lately from gentlemen w ho were
building, to go out and see that any such
result would bikavoided. It is not always
easy to detect the deficiency at once, he
says, ami it may be months before it be
comes evident." There is hut one way to
prevent such a consequence, and .that is
to put in a regular lerm-rolla flue lining.

Ah Italian mimed Michael Konk, a pas
senger on the steamer Mary Houston, was
attacked while tho boat was a short dis
tance below Cairo, on her way dow n, by a
roustabout named James Denton, and died
of his injuries before the Houston reached
this port, at tl o'clock yesterday morning.
An inquest was held by Justice Spelmau,
but the details elieiled were very meager.
It is believed that Denton attempted to
rob Konk who, with a party of nine
other raw Italians, was on his way to
Yicksburg some time during Monday
night. During the struggle w hich followed
Denton struck Konk two hlowson the head,
w ith a heavy capstan bar. His wounds
w ere not apparently dangerous at the time,
and he was removed to a more comfortable
llaee, where medical attention was given
l.ini. At Aikinsou's Landing, Mo., Den

man of the House Committee on Naval
Affairs, informed an intimate friend, a
inemlx'r of the House, that he will posi
tively decline to serve on that committee
when Congress reconvenes. The reasons
assigned for Cox's refusal are that the
Committee on Naval Attaint has compara
tively little before it the present Congress,
and twenty-two years service in the House
entitled him to the chairmanship of
Foreign Atlairs. His friends say, in that
position Cox contemplated advocating a
number of reforms in the line of reducing
the nnnilier of foreign ministers and vest
ing consuls with diplomatic power, when
necessary, and improving the consular
system so as to make it a more powerful
agency for' the advancement of the com

CIVIL RIGHTS HOWL.
The Jiceroea of Ohio in Convention at
Colmnbita.
Coi.t'MBrs, O., December 20. A State
convention of colored citizens convened
with a large attendance from all parts of
the State. AV. S. Thomas, of Delaware,
was temorarilv elected chairman. It was
stated that tlie object of tlie convention
was to show that the rights of the colored
people were being more and more disre
garded, and tne Hanville outrages stiow
such a condition of affairs as to lead to an
organization for the protection of all the
rights of all citizens. The Supreme Court
civil rights decisions were generally dis
cussed. The forenoon was occupied in ap
pointing committees on credentials and
permanent organization. There was some
contest over the make-up of the commit
tee on resolutions. The convention then
adjourned to the afternoon.
Resolutions ere adopted to petition the
legislature to pass laws tor their protec
tion, to repeal old statutes against them,
to improve the lacmties tor mo education
of colored vouth. asking both State and
national aid for colored schools, recom
mending co-operation among colored peo
ple by tlie formation of jointstock com
panies in business, tliankmg senator r.d
munds for his civil rights bill, Justice Har
lan for his dissenting opinion and the
Speaker for his services, and recommend
ing the appointment 01" a State committee
of one from each Congressional district to
perfect a plan for the protection of the in
terests of colored citizens, and the organ
ization throughout the State of civil rights
leagues. A State Committee was selected
to proceed with the organization.
At tlie afternoon session-eleven coun
ties were represented, and a permanent
organization effected as f.i!!.w.s: Presi
dent, C. L. Maxwell, Green cotiniy ; secre
tary, G. K. Cotnley, Hamilton county.
The president made a strong -address,
setting, foi h the necessity of combined
action for t'i.:ii- rights.
The gi eater sttlon of -the afternoon
was taken up in short speeches to get the
sentiment of delegates, and those repre
sented. The convention continued in session
until after midnight. At times the ex
citement over alleged abuses of the race
became very high, and most inflammatory
speeches were made.
Congress was iiemorialized, through
Sunset Cox, tot.:!:e action jn their behalf.
Mr. Cox was cited as espousing the cause
of O'Donneil, am) asked to plead for hun
dreds of liis fellow-citizens being mur
dered at l;on,n.
A long list of resolutions was adopted,
pointing out their grievances and citing
the causes for organized effort and protec
tion. The resolutions set forth that the
sentiments iu the States lately in
rebellion were averse to the rights
of colored men, and demand of the Pres
ident and Congress that the constitution
and laws be enforced for equal protection ;
held that negro supremely had never been
allowed, ; here they bad a majoi jty they
vre sqn put down bw violence, and in
tliis State eten they ar "denied representa

against them.

GERMAN SOCIALISM.
The Strong Tendency of the Rulimr
Powers in That IMrectina the
Snbject of
CotnnientThronghout the Empire Prus
sia's Extensive Purchases of
PrlTate Railroads.
The letters of onr Berlin correspondent,
says llradtlretft, have drawn attention to
the strong socialistic tendency which dur
ing late years has marked the attitude of
the ruling powers in Germany in regard to
matters ot internal concern. This ten
dency has been strikingly manifested in
the extensive purchases by tlie Prussian
government of lines of private railway. In
1870, according to our correspondent s fig
ures, the State owned twenty-seven per
cent, of the total mileage. During the suc
ceeding five years, especially in
the last two years of the jieriod,
the policy of converting private
into State railways was carried on
with so much vigor that, at the beginning
of 1881, the State owned fifty per cent of
the total mileage. This policy of acquisi
tion has since been steadily pursued, and
at present the Minister of liailways is ne
gotiating with the managers of the princi
pal yet existing private railways, with a
view to the purchase of them bv the eov
crnment. To such an extent Las the ex
istence of this policy become a reeonized
fact, that the principal movements on the
Berlin Stock Exchange at present are
owing mainly to the circulation of reports
regarding the government's plana for the
purchu.se of particular private railways, or
the offers made to the companies in pur
suance of these plans; speculation in tho
shares of the companies becoming more
or less animated in proportion to the
reported offers. It is somewhat curious
to notice the change which has come
over the government s way of looking at
the railway question during recent years,
a change probably due to the grow th in
power of the Democratic elements in the
State. The purchase of private railways,
or the construction of railways by the
State, was formerly justified ou strategical
grounds, stress being laidjon the necessity
of being able to transport large bodies of
troops quickly, in case of necessity. Of
late, however, the supporters of the gov
ernment policy hav bused their justifica
tion of it on other grounds. They now
declare it to be an anomaly that extensive
and important routes should be the prop
erty of private companies, that the price
of the transportation of people and goods
should depend on their will and favor, or
'even that the safety of the Uvea and prop
erty of citizens should be intrusted to
their control. It is urged, in . addition,
that the possession of the railways by the
governmenf will render a more" econom
ical service possible, and will enable the
government to fix rates not solely with
reference to the dividend-paying value of
railway shares, but principally with regard
to the development of commerce and in
dustry. It is well understood that the
policy which has been carried out so far
fn Prussia is not to be confined to that
kingdom, but that upon the completion of
the system there a project will be brought
forward for the purchase of ail German
railways by the empire.
It is not alone in respect to tho railway
question that the tendency to which we
have referred to is manifested. The acci
dent insurance bill, providing for tlie com
pensation of workmen in case of accident
in manufactories and mines, is a strongly
socialistic measure. AV'hat was not less
significant than the features of the bill it
self, was the declaration made when the
Dill was tirst moved mat it was the gov
ernment's intention to do away with pri
vate insurance companies. OI late the
government organs have shown a hostile
spirit toward the tire and hail insurance
companies. Some charges have been
made against the management of these
companies, and tlie partisans ot the gov
ernment projects have made the most of
them as arguments in favor of State insur
ance. It is even said tliat the life insur
ance companies, whose management has
been in the main remarkably free from
criticism, have attracted attention of the
government, and that an effort will be
nude to absorb them also. Not the least
remarkable of tho socialistic schomos pro-
: . . . 1 : . ' t ; . ' "
jucieu 111 Germany ui iui is inab men
tioned by our correspondent, namely, an
imperial institution for the support .of all
who have become unable to work and who
are without means of subsistence of their
own.
The existence of this strong socialistic
tendency in what has been for over a de
cade the most influential country in Ku-
rope is among the most interesting facts ot
the time. The currenf had hegun tq set
in the direction it has sincp taken, before
it was recognized by flip cliefs of tlie
State, but there can be no doubt that
much of its present strength is due to the
influence of Bismarck, whose economic
principles have undergone a marked
change within the decade. That remark
able man was formerly an adherent of the
doctrines of the English school of political
economists, but at nresent his favorite
counselor on economic subjects is among
the most radical of the professorial so
cialists, l.jsinarck s sincerity has been
questioned but all speculation upon bat
point must of necessity be profitless. He
has at all events a consistent theory upon
which to .justify his adoption of socialistic
rinciples. In the discussions on the law
or the repression of the Socialists he de
clared that he did not expect to cure tlie
masses of the disease of social democracy
by repressive measures alone. " J;oiiiething
more was neeucu, ne ijiint, tnan external

back the masses for kit)f? and fatlierland
by removing tlie grounds of discontent.
w hieh later liri declared to be ot an eco
nomic character. And later, in the "mo
tive accompanying me accident in
surance bill, he declared that it was not
only a duty demanded by humanity that
the State should care for its poorer mem
lers in a higher degree than it had for
merly done, but that it was fj measure re
quired for the preservation of the State.
A sound plicy, he said,, should' nourish
in the indigent classes 6f he population,
which are the m'os.1 nmuerciOa 4"d the
least instructed, the vjew tliat the State ia
a liersellcial qs well as a necessary arrange
ment, and that legislative nieaaui-es should
bring them direct, easily-perceived ad
vantages. In other words, tlie State, in
order to exist in modern times, must take
account, to a degree not before necessary,
ol the needs, sentiments and aspirations of
its poorer classes that is, of the great
majority of its citizens ind, nviut pn
deavcr in satisfy them ta as great an ex
tent as possible, hut the adoption of any
such principle, it will be seen, opens the
way to a vast and practically limitless
tielii of State activity, and one in which
the experience of tho past has little to
offer by way of guidance. AVhether even
Bismarck will be able successfully to ap
ply this principle in the field of priioticiil

There is no necessity for the appointment
of a Papal legate in this cane."
VAYhal time will probabav be fixed upon
for the holding of the council ?" "
''In this instance the practico will prob
ably be the same as in the ease of the for
mer council that is, it will be left to the
choice of the American archbishops nnd
bishops. The last council was convened in
ctobcr, 1800."
citiRcii niscii'i ixe.
"What will be ft uat.re oi the ques
tionshicU will be acted upon?"
"Benedict XI A", in his treatise on the
synod, says that human conditions are
continually changing. 4Vhat may be the
useful and advisable at one time would be
the reverse at another period. In view
of .this mutability of human affairs certain
changes in the regulations t,nd discipline
of the Church in, this country may lie
taken ip4 considered and ierhais di
rectedr" ''Is there any danger that any discus
sions unpleasant to. a portion oi the coun
cil may be entered up&n ?"
"T, hjs. ,,ueskion came up for considera
tion before Archbishop Spaulding. of Bal
timore, prior to the convening of ths last
council in 1800. This was after the late
civil war, when there was far more danger
of some unpleasant subject presenting it
self than now. The opinion expressed bv
Archbishop Spaulding at the time iaitha't
the council was called to attend 10 its own
business and not to the affairs of the State.
He felt that this would be so thoroughly
understood tliat there was nothing to
fear."
SOCIAL O.UESTIOKB.
"Is there any essential diilerence be
tween the organiution of the Church in
s country and in Europe?"
"All those observances, disciplinary and
ritualistic, which are but the expression
of that faith, are, of course, binding upon
us as upon other countries. Our social
com 1 Won in thjs country, however, is so
unlike that which is found elsewhere that
our church policy cannot be expected to
be altogether the same in many particu
lars as in other places where the social
condition are dissimilar,"
"AVInt disrnitarivs will compose the
council?"
"At the last rienary Connol. which
assembled in Baltimore in October, IsjW,
there were seven archbitshops, thirty eight
bishops, thirteen mitered abbots and over
120 theologians I presume that on this
oeeasicui the composition ol the council

CONTRACT LABOR.
How Immigrants are Imported Whole
sale into this Conn try for
' ' ! the Purpose f
Reducing the rYagf of American Work
iiuTineu A System of AVkite
Slavery in Disguise.
New York. December 25. A system of
introducing foreign labor into this country,
which was begun some three years ago,
has, during the past year, assumed such
pro)Krtions that it is beginning to attract
much attention throughout the coun
try, and Congress, it is expected, will
soon lie filled with petitions asking tliat
some means be adopted which will pre
vent it. The system is one by which large
gangs of laborers are gathered together in
Hungary, Germany and Italy by the
agents of large corporations in this coun
try and imported here, after having signed
a contract to work so many years at a cer
tain stipulated price. Tlie' laborers, it is
said, are not correctly informed of the
kind of work they will have to do in this
country, and in consequence agree to
work for a sum much lower than
that obtained by the laboring classes
here. This system has been adopted by
CAIMTAl.ISTS IX PENNSYLVANIA,
New York,New England, nnd, to some
extent, in the cotton-gVowing sections of
the South. I'nder promises of free pass
age to the land of wealth and liberty the
poor wretches are eager to sign the con
tracts which, although they are not bind
ing here, the men believe them to be so,
and place themselves in a position which
is nothing more nor Ipss than Blaverv.
Under these contracts they put some fn
mills, factories and mines, others are
used in railroad work, while those who
have no trade or profession are engaged
as common laborers on farms. A n impor
tant document recently issued by the
Knights of Labor, and largely circulated
among American workmen, ciillsupon the
latter to labor "for the suppression of a
system which is for
"THE tXIitriTOfS lTIU'OSE
of reducing the wages of American work
men and entailing upon their families all
the hardships, poverty and misery which
ever follow the displacement of any class
of toilers." The documeut also "credits
Mr. Henry Sterne, I'nited States consul
at Hilda Pesth, Hungarw, with haying
said last year that an agency seemed to
be at work which, by misrepresentations,
induces people to leave their homes, who
will not lietter their condition thereby,
nor benefit the country which receives
them. These people are shipped to the
United States like so many cattle. A pe
tition to Congress, demanding the sup
pression of the system, is also in circula
tion for signatures, and calling for such
legislation as will forever prevent the im
portation into tiiis country of foreign la
borers under contracts made abroad.
COI NT O. HE ESTEUIIAZV,
who has established a bureau for the pro
tection of Hungarian immigrants- said:
"There is no doubt that a contract system
is . being carried on, and I believe it has
reached larger proportions than anyone
lielieves. Certain it is that great numbers
of immigrants are landed on these shores
who are owned by capitalists. As far as' I
know, persons who have been so im
ported are satisfied, but this fact docs not
apologize for the system. The men, wo
men and children are virtually slaves. I
liave long endeavored to discover who
the parties are who obtain the immigrants
on the other side, but have thus far been
unsuccessful. I know of several large
coal companies who have now' iu taeir
employ foreign labor, but wliether the
latter have signed contracts I do not know.
I certainly hope that Congress will pass a
law to put a stop to such immigration."
