A Lake marine Case.
Washing ton. Nov. I.— A decision was
rendered by the supreme court to-day in the
Phoenix Insurance company et al. against
Charles E. Dyer, judge of the United States
district court for the Eastern district of
Wisconsin. This case, which is a petition
to this court for a writ of prohibition,
arises out of an action instituted by the
Goodrich Transportation company in the
Wisconsin district court, to limit its liaoil
itv as owner of the steamer Oconto for
damages caused by tire due to sparks from
the chimneys of that vessel, while she was
passing up Fox river, on her way to Green
i.'.v The Phoenix Insurance company and
the" other plaintifts now ask this court to
grant a writ of prohibition to restrain the
fudge of the district court from further pro
ceedings, on the ground that that court is
without jurisdiction to grant the relief
sought by the owners of the steamer. This
court holds that there is nothing in the ad
miralty rules which warrants the jurisdic
tion of the district court of Wisconsin and
that the case is clearly one for a writ of
prohibition. The writ will therefore be
issued. The court does not, however, de
cide the question whether or not the statu
tory limitation of liability extends to the
damages indicted by the tire in question so
as to be enforceable in an appropriate court
of competent jurisdiction. Opinion by
Justice Blatchford.

Citizens of Wisconsin Think Rusk

Special to tbe Globe.
Milwaukee, Nov. 1. — factor that is
making itself known in the present canvass,
and that promises to be damaging to Gov.
Busk's chances, is the deep-rooted opposi
tion the people have to giving a man a third
term, no matter what he has done. Grant
had as strong a hold on the nation, and
especially on the Bepublican part of it, as a
man could have; but he could not force a j
breaking of the unwritten law which Wash- j
ington laid down, and it looks now as ;
though Rusk would have hard work to make
the experiment succeed, even in Republican
"Wisconsin. Expert politicians say that he
•will be defeated and that the whole ticket
will go down with him, while on
the other hand his friends say
that the "riot issue - ' has taken
root among farmers, who will rally to his
support, and that the workingmen's party
will waste its strength on a separate ticket,
and that in this manner Woodward will be
defeated. It is noticeable, however, that
Republicans who make the latter prediction
seem to forget that the Prohibitionist is
around with his little club looking for a
head to hit. and that Busk's is just his
size. A careful review of the situation
shows it to be much mixed, but if both
workingmen and Prohibitionists cast the
vote they claim, it looks almost certain that
the Democrats will win.

THE STATUE OF LIBERTY.
Its Torch was Lighted for the First
Time Last Night—French Com
ment.
New York, 'Nov, I. The statue of
liberty was lighted for the first time to-night
and the fireworks, which were intended for i
use on the evening of the unveiling were
let off. The Courier Dcs Etats Unis this
morning published the following special
from Paris :
For the last three days Paris has not been
in France, but in America. Ail eyes have j
been turned toward New York. It is difficult
to describe with what eagerness the French I
people waited tor news of the inauguration of
the statue of liberty. They fairly devoured
the telegrams as they arrived, and all the pa
pers published and commented on them. M.
Flouquet, president of the chamber of dep
uties, received dispatches from Messrs. Shu
ler and Desmores, the representatives of the
chamber in New York, who were delighted
with the reception accorded them by the
American committee, by the authorities and
by the people. Here is the language in
which the delegates informed M. Flouquet of
the inauguration ceremonies:
To the President of the Chamber of Deputies:
The statue of liberty was unveiled to-day with im
posing solemnities, in the presence ot the presi
dent of the United States, the French delega
tion and an immense concourse of spectators.
The ceremony was made the occasion of a warm
and fervent demonstration in favor of republican
France. • bIICLBK,
_De_.moi.es.
It is regarded here that the honor paid to
the statue and to Bartholdi is an honor paid
to the French republic. This feeling does
not arise from national vanity. It is the old
national sympathy finding vent anew.
Frenchmen think of the past, aud think of
the future, and they rejoice over the new era
of friendship which has opened before the
two nations, which have so many reasons for
good will toward each other, and so few for
standing aloof. Tnis sentiment finds expres
sion ou all sides. Details are awaited with
impatience, but enough is known to justify
the enthusiasm which all Frenchmen mani
fest over the event. The English are furious
over this international episode. France
iaughs at their fury, which does not in the
least interfere with the general satisfaction.

.IXOTBEK CHICAGO STRIKE.
More Trouble at the Stock Yards-
Six Thousand Men Quit Work.
• Chicago, Nov. 1. — The threatened
strike among the beef men at the stock
yards was commenced this morning and
nearly 6.000 men are now out from the
slaughter houses of Swift & Co. and Nelson
Morris: The trouble is over the adoption
of the ten-hour system, the meu refusing to
work the two extra hours without addi
tional pay. In these two hours there are
no hogs killed, and the employers say they
cannot accept the ten-hour system. Each of
the firms employ about three thousand men.
There is a great deal of excitement, but
the men are orderly, and insist that no act
of theirs will precipitate and trouble. There
is no indication that the police will be called
upon to protect the two . houses. Further
particulars from the stock yards are to the
effect that Swift's men sent a committee to
him on Saturday, and insisted on having an
increase of 50 cents per day should the firm
return to the ten hour system, and this was
agreed to. This morning when the beef
butchers went to work they found Foreman
Welder, of Swift's, had discharged J^mes
Mattbewson, one of the committeemen.
They also found that the wages of the la
borers had not been increased, and so they
struck. They insist now on having Mat
tbewson reinstated, and also a return of the
eight-hour day. On bearing that Swift's
men were out, the beef butchers employed
by Nelson S. Morris went out. A crowd
went down to Smith's machine shop and
compelled the men to strike. After this
they went to Armours, for the purpose of
calling his men out, but this move was
anticipated by the firm, who got a force
of police to guard the principal entrances
and the crowd was kept away. A member
of the executive committee told a reporter
that unless the two firms give in all the em
ployes in the yards would be called out.
Between two hundred and three hundred
men in Libby, McNeil & Libby's canning
establishment also went out. The reason
alleged was that Morris' establishment
partly supplies the canning firm with beef.
A meeting of the strikers was held late this
afternoon. No one except Knights oi La
bor were admitted. Fully 4,000 non-union
strikers congregated on the outside, anx
iously awaiting the action of the Knights.
Several speeches were made and wild ap
plause greeted every reference to the eight
hour day. A motion to make no comprom
ise on anything short of eight hours, was
carried by a unanimous vote. A commit
tee was appointed to take charge of the
strike and given full power to act. A
Knight of Labor explained to-night that the
men had been offered the reinstatement of
the discharged man, but would now hold
out for a return to the eight-hour system by
all the beef houses. He said the proprie
tors would be given till Saturday to decide
what they would do. and if they persisted
in running ten hours, a general strike
would probably be ordered, which would
include Swift's, Morris's and also Armour's
slaughter houses.
Silver in Kansas.
Caldwell,, Kan., Nov. 1. — The dis

RUMBLE OF THE RAILS.
Harry 0. Davis is Picked Up in Chicago
for a Second Glass Pas
senger.
The Managers' Agreement Continued
Until Dec. 1, With the Hope of
Establishing a Pool.
The Duluth Road Puts a Daily Train
on Between St. Paul and
Ashland.
The "Wisconsin Central Runs Into the
New Depot In Chicago-
Various Topics.
Thought Hi in a Cowboy.
11. C. Davis, as
s i s t a n t gen
eral passenger
agent of the
Northern Paci
; fic, has the rep
utation of be
ing the hand
somest railroad
man in the city
of St. Paul. It
is claimed that
the eloquence of
his smile always touches the hearts of the
fair sex and wins for him an easy victory
over their affections.
Usually "Handsome Harry," as his inti
mate friends choose to style him. dresses with
careful taste and his linen is of the whitest
but when he goes out for a jaunt over the
road, he dons a flannel shirt, hangs a
slouch hat on his head and conducts himself
in regular second class passenger style. This
was the case a few days ago when H. C.
found himself in Chicago east-bound. He
had on a flannel shirt and slouch hat, and a
few days' growth of whiskers, added to his
rustic appearance. He was at the union
depot in Chicago and asked one of the train
men where the Grand Trunk was.
•'Up there," said the man, pointing to
wards a tram that was standing in the
depot. Davis went in the direction indi
cated by the man and found that he had
directed him to a second-class coach. 11. C.
was somewhat inflamed, and going back to
where the man stood said hotly, "what'n
the d — do you mean; that's a second-class
coach."
"Well, that's what you want, ain't it?" re
plied the man coolly.
"What I want; no, I want a sleeper.
"You want a sleeper," replied the man
smiling and sizing Harry up in a suspicious
kind of a way.
"l'es. I want a sleeker," howled Harry.
"I guess v second-class car will do you,"
calmly remarked the train man; "you'd better
go down there and get a seat ' before they're
all full."
"Say, I guess you don't know who I am, do
you?'' said Harry.
"No, I don't believe I do," replied the train
man.
"Well, look here," said Harry, thrusting his
hand down in his pocket and pulling up a
handful ot passes.
"Where'd you get all them," blurted out
the train man, his eyes flying open, "you'd
better stay with me till I can find an officer of
the road." >
He laid his hand or. Harry's shoulder as
if to detain him. but Harry indignantly
shook him off, and there would probably
have been a turmoil right there but an offi
cer of the road who knew. Harry happened
along and recognizing him, told the tram
man that he was the assistant general ticket
agent of the Northern Pacific road, and had
a hearty laugh at his expense. The train
man wrinkled his brow and walked away
muttering something about "if he was a
passenger agent he hadn't ought to dress
like a cowboy."
Will They Fool?
The agreement made between the man
agers of the Northwestern roads Jnly 20
regarding passenger rates, which was ex
tended from Oct. 1 to Nov. 1, has been ex
tended to Dec. 1. Some of the railroad
officers say that as the Southwestern roads
havecompletedapool.it is probable that
the Western and Northwestern lines will
establish a pool before Dec. 1. What
the old ■ roads are after is a
gross money pool, but there is considerable
doubt that this scheme will work, as the
new roads have come in here, and especi
ally the Burlington, which has given it out
quietly that it proposes to make a very j
loud bid for business. It has put on trains j
that run between St. Paul and Chicago in
twelve hours and twenty minutes, the same
time the Omaha and Milwaukee roads put
their limited trains through, and have an
nounced, with no small flourish of trumpets,
that all classes of tickets will be acknowl
edged on their line. This has set the other
roads to thinking, and the managers are
trying to conclude whether it is best to
"knuckle" to the Burlington or hold their
heads up indifferently and puisne the even
tenor of their ways regardless of what their
neighbor does. If a gross money pool
is established, unless some agreement is
made between the roads, the Burlington
will find it for its interest to allow none but
first-class tickets on its twelve- hour trains.
The road wants business, and as it runs
none but "limited" trains between St. Paul
and Chicago, there will be nothing for it to
gain by truing into a gross money pool
While the Milwaukee and Omaha roads are"
anxious to establish a pool, it is probable
that the new roads will standout and the
pool will not be established.

Ashland, the enterprising little Wisconsin

general passenger agent of the Omaha road,
who is rilling the chair of General Passen
ger Agent Teasdale during his absence,
was treated to a pleasant surprise last night
at his residence. 335 Somen* street.
Mac was kept down town until about
8:30 p. m., when he came home and found '
a happy crowd of railroad and newspaper
men, who had taken possession of his house
and were waiting patiently for his coming.
He was inclined to get rattled at first, but
soon recovered his equiiiberum and laid
himself out to make it pleasant for his
friends. Late in the evening he was pre
sented with a beautiful gold watch as a |
token of esteem from the employes of the
Omaha general office. It was a genuine
surprise to Mac and it took him some time
to catch his breath, but when he did he res
ponded briefly and eloquently, after which
there were cigars and social converse until
a late hour.

sister, Anna, Emma and Julia Clinch,
she leaves an annuity of §10,000 a year, to

of her deceased sister, Louise, $50,000.
All the rest of the estate, real and per
sonal, to Charles J. Clinch, now of
Paris, aud Henry Hilton. None of the
legacies are to be payable until three years
from the final probate of the will nor any
of the annuities until six months after pro
bate. In a codicil she revokes the bequest
to Henry Hilton of one-half of her residuary
estate, and instead bequeaths to him one
half of the residue of her property and es
tate in trust to complete the Stewart Me
morial church now in course of construc
tion by her at Garden City, L. 1.. known
as the Cathedral of Incarnation; to build
and endow forever two seminaries in con
nection therewith, the whole, when com
pleted, to be conveyed to the Episcopal
church. By another codicil, Mrs. Stewart
authorizes Henry Hilton, in regard to
the share and portion of her property de
vised and bequeathed to him in trust, to
lease and dispose of it from time to time as
he shall deem expedient; all such acts to
be valid and as effectual as if made by the
testatrix, and all expenses to be allowed
him without further proof than that they
were actually made. Judge Hilton is em
powered to divide any surplus among the
legal heirs. He is empowered to appoint
or substitute a trustee or trustees to act in
his place for any desired period, and at will
to revoke said appointment, and by will ap
point his successor, provided, however, that
the said trust shall not continue longer than
the lives of Kate A. and James C. Smith,
named in the will. By another codicil,
dated May 31, 1883.MM. Stewart bequeaths
to Sarah N. Smith and her heirs one equal
part of the share in the estate granted to
her nephew, Charles J. Clinch. She gives
$25,000 to be distributed by the executors
among her household servants living with
her at the time of her death. The last
codicil is dated Nov. 30, 1885. After stat
ing that the cathedral and St. Paul's school
at' Garden City has been completed and
endowed, it revokes all former clauses to
the will and codicils thereto, except that
the trustee is empowered at his discretion
to build and endow a seminary of learning
for women as described in previous codicils,
and to erect such other institutions and
buildings connected with the cathedral as
may be necessary. Absolute title to the
property is vested in the legatee to convey
and transfer the property in accordance with
the provisions of the will and codicils.

The Stranded I'sivoiiia.
Boston, Nov. I.— The Cunard line
steamer Pavonia, before reported disabled
and beached on Rainford's island, was
floated this forenoon, the holes in her for
ward compartment having been tempo
rarily stopped, and started under her own
steam for Boston. The damage to the
steamer cannot be estimated at present.
The baggage of the passengers is said to
have been considerably damaged.
They Haye suspended.
New Ha vex, Conn., Nov. I.—Ester
brook & Co.. of this city, the only manu
facturers of oleomaicarine in Connecticut,
have suspended, as they regarded the gov
government tax as prohibitory. From
eighty to one hundred persons are thrown
out of employment.

Bitter Bread.
Complaint is frequently made by those
who use baking powders that they leave in
bread, biscuit, or cake raised by them a dis
agreeable, bitter taste. This taste follows
the use of all impure baking powders, and
is caused either by their containing alum
(introduced to make a cheap article), by the
impure and adultered character of other in
gredients used, or from the ignorance of
their manufacturers of the proper methods
of combining them. These baking powders
leave in the bread residuum formed of lime,
earth, alum, or other deleterious matter-,
not always, though frequently, tastable in
the food, and by all physicians classed as
injurious to health. The Royal Baking
Powder is free from this serious defect. In
its use no residuum is left, and the loaf
raised by it is always sweet, light and
wholesome, and noticeably free from the
peculiar taste complained of. The reason
of this is because it is composed of nothing
but absolutely pure materials, scientifically
combined in exactly the proper proportions of
acid and alkali to act upon and destroy each
other, while producing the largest amount
of raising power. We are justified in this
assertion from the unqualified statements
made by the Government chemists, who,
after thorough and exhaustive tests, recom
mended the "Royal" for Governmental use
because of its superiority over all others in
purity, strength and wholesomeness. There
is no danger of bitter bread or biscuit where
it alone is used.

A VIEW OF THE FIELD.
Probable Outcome of the Election in Min

the Conditions.

for Congress.

A Political Rpconnoiter.
The noise of battle will fill the air to-day
from the dawning until the gloaming, and
the fight will be a most desperate one,
every inch of ground being contested with
great fierceness. The armies are about
equal in point of numbers; the generals are
pretty evenly matched so far as qualifica
tions are concerned, and the grounds have
been chosen so that neither has any partic
ular advantage in the way of position.
They rested upon their arms last night, in
close proximity to each other, the campfires
being plainly visible from the outposts,
and the noise and bustle of preparation for
the work of the coming day being wafted
on the air to the ear of the alert and cau
tious sentry. Every able-bodied man was
at his post when the tatoo sounded last
night, and all of them will be on hand
when the reveille sounds at break cf day,
with bayonet fixed and cartridge box well
filled. These armies are a fine and well
disciplined body of men the flower of Min
nesota's citizenship — and their valor has
been tested on many a sanguinary field.
They will fight to the bitter end to-day and
when the battle closes to-night the victors
will have scars and wounds enough to show
that the tight was not won easily, but only
by desperate charges and counter charges
and sorties, in which hundreds of brave
soldiers met their fate. To-day will be
fought in Minnesota the battle between the
Democratic and Republican parties.
THERE IS A KIEL 'STATE TICKET
to be elected governor, lieutenant governor,
secretary of state, state auditor, state treas
urer, attorney general, clerk of the supreme
court and three judges of the supreme court.
The people will also vote on an amendment
to article Bof the state constitution. Five
congressmen are to be chosen, and several
district judges. An entire legislature — 47
senators and 103 representatives — are to be
elected, ". which legislature will choose: a
United States senator to succeed McMillan
(Rep.). Ramsey and Hennepin — and most
of the counties in the — will elect
county tickets. The fight for governor
will be very close, and the interest in it will
draw out a large vote not so large, how
ever, as was cast at the presidential elec
tion in 1884. The falling oil' is estimated
at 10 per cent. Both sides claim the elec
tion of their candidates. The highest ma
jority claimed for McGill (Rep.) is 15,000,
but Republicans generally claim from 8,000
to 10,000. Blame had 41,620
majority in the state in 1884.
The Ames .managers, on the
other hand, claim his election by from
5,000 to 8,000 majority. The McGill men
base their hopes on 5.000 majority in the
Fifth congressional district. 8,000 in the
Second. 2,500 in the First and 1,000 in the
Third. The more liberal of them are dis
posed to concede Ames from 2.500 to 5,000
majority in the Fourth. There are those,
however, who claim that GcGill will have a
small majority in the Fourth. These cal
culators are generally inclined to reduce the
Bepublican claims iii the Fifth, First and
Third. Summed up and boiled down the
Republican claims hover in the neighbor
hood of 8.000 to 10,000 majority. Ames'
friends expect 6,000 to 8,000 majority in
the Fourth, 2.000 in the Third and 500 to
1,000 in the First. They
DO NOT CONCEDE ANY MAJORITY
for McGill in the Fifth, but allow 4.000 in
the Second. It is a very difficult matter to
predict with any degree of certainty, but
Ames is conceded to have the best chance
for election. He has nothing of a serious
nature that can be urged against him so as
to detract from bis strength, while McGill
is recognized as a very weak candidate,
Ames is particularly strong with the labor
ing men and the soldiers, and he will
poll a heavy vote among the
farmers owing to McGill's known connec
tion with the wheat ring, the Millers' asso
ciation and other monopolies. There is
also a serious defection in the ranks of the
Scandinavians, who have heretofore voted
the Republican ticket almost solidly. These
dissenters are for Ames. This defection is
especially apparent in the Fifth district, in
which reside Gilman and Congressman
Nelson. The Republicans of that district
are very sore over Oilman's treatment in
the state convention. If McGill does not
have over 10.000 or 12.000 majority, Min
nesota will be one of the doubtful states at
the next presidential election. If Ames
gets 5,000 majority the Democratic candi
date for president will carry the state by
from 15,000 to 20,000. McGill will run be
hind Ids ticket and Ames will run ahead of
his. There is no opposition to the three
candidates for supreme judge—Vander
burgh, Mitchell and Dickinson, except by
the Prohibitionists. Two of the judges
named are Republicans and one a Demo
crat. An amendment to article 8 of the
constitution is to be voted on, providing
that the permanent school funds of the
state may be loaned upon interest at the
rate of
FIVE PER CENT. TER ANNUM
to the several counties or school districts of
the state, to be used in the erection of
county or school buildings. No opposition
has yet been manifest and it will probably
be adopted almost . unanimously.
The Prohibitionists have full stale
and congressional tickets in the
field. and in most senatorial
and a good many of the representative dis
tricts, also local tickets in a number of
counties. Of course they will cut no
especial figure in the contest, and elect
none but a few local candidates, but they
expect to poll a largely increased vote in
the state. An increased Prohibition vote is
always considered in the interest of the
Democrats. The Democrats claim the elec
tion of three congressmen certain — Wilson
in the First, Mac Donald in the Third and
Rice in the Fourth — with .a probability of
electing Bullis in the Second. The latter
is making a still hunt and will run like a
wild horse. The result in the Second is
likely to astonish everybody. Nelson (Rep.)
has no opposition in the Fifth. The Dem
ocrats claim Wilson's election by from
1.100 to 5.000; Mac Donald, 1,000 to 2,500;
Rice, 1.200 to 4,000. The Republicans, on
the other hand, claim Lovely in the First
by from 1,500 to 2,500; Herbert in the
Third by about the same, and Gilfillan in
the Fourth by from 2,000 to 4.000. Claims
of from 5,000 to 7.000 majority are made
for Lind in the Second. It is conceded that
the Democrats will make large gains in the
legislature. The Republicans now have a
majority of 103 on joint ballot, the parties
being divided: Republicans, 103; Dem
ocrats. 47. The local Democratic tickets !
in Ramsey and Hennepin counties are cer- j
tain to be elected, almost to a man, and the '
Democrats will make a better showing than j
ever before, throughout the state. There '.
will be Democratic gains in almost every I
county. The campaign has been one of the i
most notable in the history of the state, and I
the Democrats have succeeded in thoroughly
stirring up and scaring the Republicans.
The latter have never stumped the state
before as they have this year.
