Not only, under the operations of this law. ought the men who try to capture eaucuses either by faction power or chicanery find their occupation gone, but the class who is always ready to find an excuse for bolting should lack any pretext for refusal to accept the unquestionable decision of their party associates. Under the Australian ballot regime.with proper opportunity for the party voter to judge of the merits or demerits of candidates as well as plenty of time to mark his ballot. caucuses ought really to be the expression of the honest sentiment of the party in the district wherein it is held. ETEM3 AND TEE MEL PROBLEM.

Strikes in the bituminous districts of Pennsylvania and Maryland. as well as in the soft coal districts of the west. still tinue. Fortunately however, there is still peace in the anthracite regions, and from Lehigh to Carbondale the mines are being worked on full time. In the progress of invention some substitute must yet be found for fuel that is gradually making smoke houses of our cities.

The schome of converting gravitation Into electricity, as a source of motive power. Is naturally getting a big boom while the pending soft coal strike rages. There is nothing like having a variety ot strings to pull in all human affairs. Multiplication of resources is ultimately good for all classes and all interests. CAN 113 CLEVELAND BE FORGIVEN? Never weary in partisan doing, a re: publican neighbor has dug up another gigantic argument for high tariffs, along with a most potent reason why Grover Cleveland ought never to have licen elected president of these United States.

The argument Is deduced from reports of representatives of the dental profession, Involving a comparative review of the amount et business done under Mr Harrison's administration and that done under Mr Cleveland's. If these reports are to be credited, the collections of not a few dentists have fallen off 25 percent An average based upon the statements of 120 representative dentists shows a falling off of 41 percent in incomes since Mr Cleveland's election. Or, to put it in another form, where the toothpullers collected $100 under Harrison and McKinley, they have only collected $39 under Cleveland. Our neighbor thus shows that to the other calamities incident to Mr Cleveland's election we must add that of forcing some 41 percent of the American people to part with their toothaches, or to state it in other terms, Mr Cleveland's election has caused to be lost to the nation over 40 percent of its toothaches, sawings, filings, borings and haramerings upon raw nerves, to say nothing of the salvage of teeth. A decrease in the active operations of dentistry can mean nothing else than this.

When the people come to realize the full force of our neighbor's argument it will require considerable effort to forgive Mr Cleveland. Had Mr Harrison stayed in office we should now be enjoying our full quantum of toothache, there would be 40 percent more saws, TUESDAY, JUNE 12, 1894.

An attempt was made to destroy one of the parochial schools in ward 2. Malden, early this morning. As patrolman Killion was passing along Highland av soon after 1 oclock he saw a lively blaze under the porch of the wooden school building at the corner of Highland av and Charles st, and be quickly pulled in an alarm from box 64. Before the department arrived the officer, with the assistance of John Carey, got the lire under control. An investigation showed that a large pile of wood and paper bad been saturated with kerosene and placed against the front of the building and set fire to.

The fortunate discovery by the officer probably saved the building, as it is built of wood and would have burned rapidly had the tire got a good start. The pollee are making an investigation today.

The railroad commissioners listened this morning to residents of Norwood and vicinity on matters pertaining to the disposition of depots in that town.

The question has troubled the citizens of those parts for the peal 5t years. For the same space of time the matter has been constantly before the railroad commissioners. The latter advertised a few days ago that a final hearing would be given this morning. It was to be positively the final appearance of this question. There are in the town of Norwood three depots or stations along the line of the New York New England road, Norwood.

Norwood Central and Winslow. For a long time past the question of consolidating the Norwood and Norwood Central stations hal been discussed. For a time discussion ceased pending the abolition of the Norwood grade crossing. for which a commission was appointed a few years ago. This commission reported In favor of the abolition, and so reported to the superior court.

The latter court confirmed the decision, but the railroad took the matter to the supreme court. A confirmatory decision has just been rendered by this court also. This issue disposed of, the old conflict was renewed. At the hearing this morning F. A.

Farnum appeared for the railroad. J. J. Feeley, who represented the selectmen of the town in the grade crossing case. was present.

Mr Feeley today appeared for. those who term themselves or, in other words, favor a union station. This union station would mean the consolidation of the stations above mentioned. John C. Lane opposed consolidation.

It would inconvenience many were the present stations changed. He was strongly in favor of the Norwood Central. Numerous citizens were called and testified. some in favor and others opposed to the consolidation. Nothing new was deduced from the testimony given and the arguments of the past few years were once more put forth.

The commissioners listened with marked attention and took the case under consideration. WELT PEOPLE TALK ABOUT. Battleships of Our Navy.

Petition. Discrimination in BostokApinst Old Soldiers Alleged.

Street Department Comes Under Criticism. Solicitor Bailey Defends the Superintendent. Counsel Goward Wants Cause for Discharge Shown. The committee on public service heard the petition of the veteran organizations and camps of Sons of Veterans of Boston this morning for legislation giving preference to honorably discharged soldiers and sailors in appointments in civil service, and providing that they shall not be discharged therefrom except upon cause shown. The committee room was well filled with Grand Army men when chairman Senator Gage opened the hearing.

The petitioners were represented by John E. Goward. The city of Boston was present through solicitor Bailey. In his prefatory remarks. Mr Goward told the committee that there was to his mind, no mistaking of the situation.

The veterans of the late war were unduly discriminated against in the departments of the city. Various means were used to get rid of them, such as by suspension or traneferrence from practically easy to difficult labor. "Old soldiers are discharged." be said, "without any apparent cause. This is what we object to. We do not beg for anything.

If there are available positions in the city departments we have done as much to secure, and are as competent to fill the places as others. If a man is discharged we want to know why." Mr Goward then introduced Councilman P. O. Emerson. Mr Emerson explained to the committee the feeling of the city government on the matter.

There was no political interests at stake in solving the difficulty. Democrats and republicans were together in declaring for the veterans of the late war. The aldermen and the common council bad done everything within their power. 1 "I introduced an order to the effect 1 that the mayor examine every case of discharge of veterans. It was in the form of a request His honor made no reply.

It is understood that Superintendent Carter, against whom complaints are made for the discrimination in his departments, does not intend to change his tactics in the least. Now we come here to you and ask that you act and accomplish that which we seem unable to accomplish, by the passage of legislation in the line we have petitioned. Questioned by Mr. Bailey and members of the committee he said that there were not as many'. men at work in the department over which Mr Carter presides as there were last year.

There was as much work to be done, but the appropriation was smaller than last year. He would not state definitely that there was a disposition to pick out Grand Army men, and by this he meant all eveterans of the late war, and oust them, but pointed to the evidence introduced before the committee at city hall. In his opinion that disposition to sacrifice the vtteran did exist, however. Mr Bailey wanted proof of this. "I do not come here to oppose in the name of the city this bill." continued Mr Bailey; "on the contriry, I am in favor of it It will be especially agreeable to me if you passed an act forbidding an ex soldier to be discharged without cause shown.

I do not believe there is any opposition to the bill. But when a direct and unjustifiable attack is made upon any of the of the city of Boston I will defend that officer to the best of my ability." Mr Goward retorted that it was impossible to set forth the grievances complained of Without atta2k1ng somebody. Mr Bailey replied that nothing could be gained by such a course of action. "Since 1891 there have been 250 men discharged by superintendent Carter. These men had to go.

Now, out of that number, but 18 were veterans. That does not look like discrimination." Mr Bailey then read a letter from Mr Carter, who was Unable to be present. The latter denied that there was ever any discrimination as alleged. Only 18 men who served in the late war had been discharged. The custom was always to give preference to the soldier.

Mr toward suggested that the manner of transferring occasioned many Just grievances. A veteran might be at work in the street-cleaning department and be able to do no heavier work. All of a sudden he was transferred to the sewer department, to work that he could not possibly do. And why? There was evidently no other reason for the change but a desire to be rid of him, since he would be compelled to resign. Mr Bailey, while not denying that such transferences had been made, saw a desire on the part of to hold the man in the employ of the city as long as possible.

This was the reason for the change. Some of the committee were unable to appreciate the means taken in such cases to retain the men. If the veteran was unable to do light work, he surely could not be expected to get down into the sewers and give satisfaction. A. H.

Spencer, commander Post 68, told the committee that the "boys" did not come to attack any one. If positions were available they should be given the preference; if discharged, cause should be shown. The hearing was then declared closed. FUNERAL OF CYRUS W. FIELD.

Services in New YorkInterment to Take Place in North Adams. NEW YORK, June 12Rev Dr Arthur Brooks officiated at the funeral services of the late Cyrus W. Field at the church of the Incarnation. Madison av and 35th st, this morning. The Delta Psi fraternity and the Sagamore lodge of Freemasons, of both of which Mr Field was a member, were represented.

The Norfolk suburban street railway can go ahead with its extension from Hyde Park to Forest Hills. The railroad commissioners this morning authorized the road to increase. for that purpose, its capital stock by an additional 125,000, and to issue bonds, secured by mortgage of its property, not exceeding $75,000.

The railway now maintains a line of road from Dedham to Hyde Park. It was desired by the road to extend the line to Forest Hills that a connection might be had with the FM vned. the Subject can convey an adequate Idea of the character and extent of the visitation which is ravaging Canton, Pakhoi and Hong Kong and throwing this part of the world generally into a state of terror and panic almost without parallel. The plague, which is described by medical men as almost exactly similar In appearance and symptoms to "The great plague of London," which de-vested that city in 1665, was noticed first in Canton about the end of April, prior to which date there had been a period of prolonged drought. The first sign observed was the appearance of thousands of rats, swollen and evidently dying, crawling from the open sewers and the houses of that filthy city.

These 'vermin are invariably the persecutors of all such visitations In southern China, and every year they give notice of the appearance of the plague in Pakhoi, where it appears to be almost epidemic. The disease is frightfully rapid in its course. Purging at once sets in, and a state of delirium followed by coma in three or four hours in bad cases, death ensuing and the body turning black. putrid and swollen to thrice its natural size in the course of 12 to 24 hours. Very strong men have resisted the attack for two days, and then succumbed, but as many as 80 percent of those attacked in Canton died in one day.

Those who held out for three or four days generally recovered, but they were very few. A foreign missionary resident in Canton made systematic inquiries, which he avers show that up to the 8th inst at least 60.000 people have been carried off. All the immense business of the city was at a standstill, and the inhabitants who could do so were fleeing into the country, while those who remained were endeavoring to stay the progress of the terror by the most extravagant "joss pidgin," or worship of their idols, vain rites in which the highest officers of the government joined. Several medical and other experts were dispatched from Hongkong to inquire into the cause of the plague, and they all agreed that it was due primarily to the habits and the poverty of the Cantonese, aided. no doubt, by the prolonged drought.

None of the European residents of Canton or Hongkong have been attacked by the plague, which is entirely confined to the Chinese. Will Try Wheeling on water. PARIS.

Svend Robertson and Oscar Smith Complain of Sturgis. An interesting sailor case, Involving a Question of admiralty law in reference to the so-called "blood-money system," against which the organized seamen of this country have been fighting for the past five years, was brought before the commissioner in the federal building today. On a complaint made by Svend Robertson and Oscar Smith a hearing was given to W. H. Sturgis, who conducts a shipping master's office on Commercial et, who was charged with exacting an illegal fee for procuring employment for them.

The prosecution was conducted by Asst Dist Atty Casey, and later in the hearing by Sherman Hoar. The evidence of the prosecution was to the effect that Sturgis charged the above-named seamen $3 for procuring them employment-- on the steamship Santuit Capt Nugent of the steamer testified to having paid the amount to Sturgis for getting him the men, as he understood, according to his testimony, that the men made no objection to paying this fee. The men testified that the articles on which they signed were not filled out and that the first they knew of the charge was when they went to the mate to settle up. shipping commissioner Grant testified to the custom among the seamen of being charged for shipping, which, he said. was paid out by the shipping master in Gen Sec Walker of the Atlantic coast seamen's union was called to give his opinion of the law as understood among seamen, and be stated thatjt was the belief among sailors that they could not sign allotment notes to any one but an original creditor, and then only for board or clothing.

After hearing the case in all its bearings the commissioner said that the evidence and shipping master Sturgis' own admittance of having received the fee from the master of the vessel warranted him in holding the case for the circuit court, and he accordingly placed the defendant under $200 for appearance whenever the case might be called. Notwithstanding that the law has been on the statute books since 1886, this is the first time that a shipping master has been held for trial, and is the cause of much rejoicing among the seamen and others who are interested in the matter, they claiming that it has been next to impossible to have the district attorney's office interest itself in the cases of the seamen, and they are prevented by law from having a lawyer to look after their interests, which can only be prosecuted by and through the district attorney's office.

At a meeting of the gypsy moth commission held this morning in the offize of the state board of agriculture it was voted to sustain the action taken by Prof E. H.

Curious Crowds Throng Courtilloom Today, When the Great Trial is Begun in Earnest. Dist Atty Wellman Opens for the Prosecution. NEW YORK, June 12The court of oyer and terminer was crowded this morning when the trial of Erastus WI-man was begun in earneat The trial was opened by Asst Dist Atty Wellman for the prosecution. He said that Mr Wiman was to be tried for forging the name of E.

W. Bullinger to a check for $5000, drawn Feb 6, 1893, on the Chemical bank by R. O. Dun Co. After telling bow Mr Wiman was at first a manager of R.

G. Dun Co's Canadian branch and then of the local department in this city, Mr Wellman went on to relate that Mr Wiman, on Feb 6. 1893, went to bookkeeper Wheeler of R. O. Dun and Co, and asked him for check for $5000, payable to E.

W. Bu 'linger; that Bulfinger never got the check, but that Wiman deposited It in his own bank to his own private account Mr Wiman. he said, had uttered forged checks during the year previous. Gen Tracy interrupted at this point and requested that the court order the district attorney to confine himself to the case in question. "And, as to that" said the general, "we concede that Mr Wiman wrote the name of Bul linger on the back of this check and deposited it to his own account- Commercial law justified him in so doing." Justice Ingraham allowed Mr Wellman to continue, cautioning the jury that they must not consider what Mr Wellman said to be evidence unless these facts should be subsequently brought forward as testimony: The assistant district attorney immediately replied to Gen Tracy.

"The counsel is, indeed, magnanimous in acknowledging that Wiman signed Bul linger's name to the check. He knows that we have 'Mr Wiman's written letter, his confession, in which he acknowledged doing so, and begged for mercy from his employer. "But," continued Mr Wellman, "the signature was not in his handwriting. He must have disguised his handwriting." This point seemed to make an impression on those present. Mr Wellman said that Mr Wiman had been in the habit of placing checks sent to the firm to his own account, and that at the time of the alleged forgery Wiman's indebtedness to Dun amounted to 000.

Gen Tracy again objected, but was overruled by Justice Ingraham. Mr Wellman closed by speaking of the circumstances of this indebtedness. He then offered in evidence the original articles of agreement between R. G. Dun and Erastus Wiman.

Arthur J. King and Robert G. Douglass. The first witness called was James Harral, cashier for R. G.

Dun, Co. He identified the check in question, and said that he had made it under orders from Mr Wiman. who had come to him and said that they must owe Bullinger some money, and that he had better draw a check for $5000, which he did. He also identified the signkture on the back of the Hui linger checks as Mr Wiman's. On the cross examination, Gen Tracy tried to show that Mr Wiman had been in the habit of drawing nearly all of the checks for the concern.

Witness could not remember one single instance in the past 10 years when Mr Dun had drawn a check. Mr Wiman had always drawn the checks for the monthly payroll. Mr Dun was rarely at the office until late In the afternoon. and for six months of the year was out of the city, leaving all the business In the hands of Mr Wiman. The next witness was Edward W.

Bullinger. Mr Builinger testified that all of his business with R. G. Dun Co had been through Erastue Wiman. At the period under consideration, Mr Bu flinger said the firm of rt.

G. Dun Co owed him about MAO. Mr Wellman then handed Mr But linger the check, and asked if the signatureE.W. Bullingerwas his. Witness said that it was not: that the writing was not at all like his.

He had never authorized Mr Wiman to sign his, the witness', name to any instrument whatever. Continuing, witness said the first time he had seen the check was after proceedings had been begun against Mr Wiman. Mr Wellman then tried to introduce as evidence a check drawn an 7, 1893, and indorsed E. W. Bullinger, with E.

W. underneath it. This check was in other respects similar to the one drawn in February. It was rejected at the bank, however. Mr Wiman, it is said, then took tne check to Mr Bullinger, saying that it had been drawn by mistake.

and got him to sign it. Gen Tracy objected to this on the ground that Mr Wiman admitted that he had signed the check with Mr Bullinger's name. The objection was sustained. Gen Tracy did not cross-examine at any length. He got Mr Bullinger write his name on a slip of paper, and then excused him.

The next witness was Cyrus H. Taylor. receiving teller of the Central National bank. He testified that the "Bullinger" check had been received by the Central National bank. and cleared and paid by the Chemical National bank.

There was no cross-examination. Wm. M. Place, the assistant receiving teller, produced his ledger. showing that the check was entered to be credited to Mr Wimates account John A.

Kennedy, a bookkeeper, produced his books. and showed that Mr Wiman had been credited with MO, according to his instructions. Gen Tracy objected to this evidones ir 4 1 1, .4 si el'i 11 I llf 1 i 1 i I 41: Ie I li' pli 1 I i A 411 I I Ill fil 4if I 11; :011 I I 1 Ht.
