THE GRAIN TRADE. EYENfS III ENGLAND. TELEGRAPHIC HEWS. ai the prohibitory order, and so far as Trafalgar square is concerned there will be formidable array of government force and consequently little or no disposition to test its strength. tt-ooeesiona, however, will be protected, instead of clubbed aa on last Sunday, Home Secretary Matthews earing for tbe legality of bia position, and the scene will be transferred to Hyde park where an enormous meeting will be held, three reforme is and three policemen occupying positions on tbe platform, or n- ar it, to act ostensibly as conservers of order.

The swearing in of tbe special constables bas len a most laughable fizxJe. In apite of the assertions of tbe government" partisans bat tbe required men could be raised in a single day, not above 1.V000 have qualified within the three days during which ti magistrates bave kept open bouse for the purpose of swearing them in. The. specials fcworn in are a green lot. Tbey complain of tbe quality of the stoves of office furnished to them, and are indignant tbat they are not permitted to do duty where tbey please.

A large number of clerks who enrolled themselves supposed they would be allowed to protect their employers' property exclusively and there Is a great outcry in consequence. Tbe middle class, with plenty of money and a corresponding degree of leisure, predominate, and their services in event of, a row are of doubtful nature. The Irish rifles were ordered to parade tonight, without arms, for the purpose of being sworn in as special com tables, and made an exceedingly picturesque appearance. Among the notable perrons sworn in are Sir Frederick Leighton, R. Earl Crawford, Lord Carew.

the Earl of Mar and the Rov. Robert Maguire, rector of St. Olavea. Of course no one can say tbat there will not be a riot but the chances are tbat no trouble will occur. Mr.

A Plucky Over One Hundred Passengers Great Jeopardy. in Excitement Aboard a Fast-Mall Train A Desperate Struggle. How "Bob" Whittaker's Hair Turned White In a Single Night.

"That story of yours about the drummer who's hair turned white by reason of his experience at the Newhall hotel fire, reminds me of Ziel Franklin," said oue of the best known Central-Hudson engineers. "I knew Ziel when he had a run on the Lake Shore, between Cleveland and Ch cago, and a better fellow (when he let whiskv alone) never held a throttle. 'Bob' Whit-taker was firing for him then. One night, about two mouths after 'Bob' tea an firing for Ziel, they ft for Chicago, drawing the fast mail be ind a new locomotive, No. 313.

at that time, wasn't a bit superstitious, but the number 13 seemed to remain upper most in his thoughts. Ziel seemed to be down-pressed, and acted surlv and nervous- Jike, but 'Bob' attributed it to a little too much whisky. It was a bad night, the rain pouring in torrents, and the train composed of the engine, two day coaches, three sleepers and four mail cars, was moving rather slow, as there was a freight ahead. When abont en hour out of Cleveland Ziel's furv broke loose. After several incoherent remarks the engineer ordered the fireman to build up the fire.

'Heat her up, aud be quick about shouted Ziel. The steam-guaee indicated a pretty hieh pressure, it Bob' was forced to obey the engineer's orders. After throwing in a shovelful or two of coal, 'Bob' was about to close the furnace door when Franklin sprang forward and fiercely wrested the shovel from his hands and nearly choked up the furnace with coal He then bung the sledge-hammer on tbe safety valve. 'Bob' audde'-lv realized that his chief was as mad as a march hare. "The train flew al at a tremendous rate, and several times when 'Bob' held back, the crazy engineer threatened to cast him into the furnace if he did not throw on more coal.

The conductor became alarmed and rang the bell to go slower, but Franklin tore the bell from its place and threw it away. There were over l'O passengers on the train, and by this time, all was excitement aboard the train The freight train was only a few miles ahead, and 'Bob' attempted to blow the whistle. Franklin, who was much more powerful than Whit'aker, interferred. The former then went forward, and bv miracu lotis climbing, reached the headlight, which he extineuished. While ho was forward.

'Bob' blew tho whistle for all it was worth. nd Franklin came back, raving mad 'Bob' armed himself with a heavy wrench, and whe Z'el sprang t.iwn him, 'Bob' cave biT. a stunning blow ou the client Thi, onlv roused bis laten' fury, and 'Bub' was forced to deal him a heavy low on the head. Ziel sunk back, unconcious. 'Boh' instantly tore the sledge hammer from the safety-valve, turned the brakes and reversed the lever so suddenly that the passengers were thrown down on the floor.

When the train stopped, it. wa within onn frffd of the freight train The train ands found Bob' in a dead faint and poor Ziel was found a milp behind, lvini-beside the track. He had a fearful ga-h in the head, but when he -ived he seemed to -q'lite rational, although he could not remember nny of the exciting "vents of the terrible trio. Until about two years' ago, Ziel was emnloved on th" Consolidated road, when he beeame a maniac, and he is low confined in the Statu as lum at riden, (Jt 'Bob's' hair when ha left levelaud that nitrht. was ns dark as a raven's, but it wa-partially gray when ho recovered from bis swoon, aud a month later it had become as white as snow.

An Interesting: Murder Trial Carcio Pleads Self-Defense. The trial of Frank Curcio for the murder of Frank Marino, the Italian padrone, com mitted August 3, last, occupied the court of Oyer and Terminer (Judge Daniels) the entire week. Sensational evidence waa offered by Philomena Marino, widow of tbe murder ed man, and Angelo Marino, who wit nessed the stabbing. On Friday Curcio took tbe stand in bia behalf. He cave tbe his tory of the stabbing, concluded as follows: ben 1 saw Marino run 1 began to run, too, and passed the corner first.

When 1 reached tbe doorstep Marino overtook me and struck mi on tbe neck witn bis est. 1 lost my balance and came near falling, when Marino grabbed me and 'smashed' me two or three times.

He threw himself back and the kni'c entered here pointing to the region of the heart I did not inteiid to kin juarino, only to disable him." Mai ino'8 cross-examination was concluded yesterday morning. Oen. Slayton, Capt. Cavanaugh and others testified to Marino's bad character.

Concerning the evidence adduced at bia arraignment be said the testimony of the detectives waa merely at the orlicers bad committed to memory from some garbled report of his speech. "il would nave been Impossible," be con tinued, "for auy one to have taken down my speech witbont having bten detected.

and I would bave been at one notified of the fact." When asked of what the anarchists com-dained, he banded the reporter a circular leaded. "To the Workinirinen of America." In this he taidan answer to the query would be found, and in briefer form than be cou.d give It on lie tnen mum tne lot-lowing selectiou: "Our present society is fotimied on the expoliatiou of the property-less class by the propertied. This expolia tiou la such that the propertied (capitalists) buy tbe working force body and soul of the property Use lor tbe price or tbe mere coec of vxieteuce (wages) and take for themselves. i. steal tbe amount of new values (products) which exceed the price, whereby wages are made to represent the necessities instead of tbe earnings of the wage laborer." "in what are the anarchists not protec ed by the existing laws" "ibe answer to was question wouiu too long.

It would take a whole day to answer it fully. I will say. however, that tbe popular clamor against those holding our doctrines ia so great that tbe existing authorities would be applauded for resorting to auy means to sup press us. They need not keep to the letter of the existing laws to proeecute us. Tbey are free to distort theni in any way to put ut in prison.

The laws are bad enougn, but those who, by capitalistic means have been entrusted with their enforcement are worse. We purpose to spread our doctrines by call ing the attention of tbe working people at all times and at every opportunity to tbe fact that the existing laws are formed by and in tbe Interest of tbe moneyed class. This will not, perhaps, bring about any change in the laws, but it wail instil into tbe minds of tbe people the gieat truths hichjvebolJ, and will prepare them to stand by their rights when tbe revolution shall come, ben this w.ll come i cannot, say. It is some capitalist who will start it." When asked if be thought the revolution would be successful Most smiled Conlcmu- ously and replied: "1'eople do not go Into a revolution with the expectancy of defeat. That would be very, very foolish Indeed." A AOTAIILI2 VICTORY.

Grain The First Eleiator, Erected by a Buffalonian in 1842. Tbe Rapid and Enormous Increase ia Shipments to tbls Port. Although Buffalo is ope of the chief grain potts of tbe world to-day, yet in 1825, with a populations of over 2,500 souls tbe citizens sighed for a steam flour-mill and for a grain market. Five years later, in 1S30, grain be gan to pass here in considerable quantities. In 1SS Ohio was tbe only state sending ns grain, and the annual receipts were bushels, including wheat, corn, oat-, rye, etc.

Thereafter there was a steady increase in the growth of Buffalo' grain trade, rising from half a million bushels in 1836 to over 2.000,000 bushels in 18-11, or an increase of 400 per cent, in five years. The delays, incident to tbe handling of this quantity of grain, caused much vexation and entailed great expense. The then pre vailing method of transfer was to raise the grain from the bold of the vessel in barrels per tackle and block, to weigh it with hopper and scales swung over the hatchway of the canal boat, or carry it into the warehouse in bags or baskets on men's shoulders. This method still prevails in several large eastern. southern and western cities.

Tbe most that could be accomplished in this way of elevat ing grain, even witb a full set of bands, was to transfer from 1,800 to 2,000 bushels per day, and all work bad to be suspended in bad weather. The harbor was often crowded with vessels, waiting for a change of weather. About this time, Joseph Dart (who died in this city, Sept. 28, 1879, at the age of 81 yeaiio, determined to try stt'am power in the M-anqfer of grain. Mr.

Dart has left a very interesting account of bis experience in bir.l.iing the first steam grain elevator in banalo. He says: "There were various obstacles to the suc cessful execution of such a plan, and predic tions or failure were somewhat freelv ex pressed. 1 believed, however, that I would build a warehouse, of large capacity, for storage, witb an adjustable elevator and conveyors, to be worked by steam: and bo arranged as to transfer grain from vessels to boats or bins, with cheapness and dispatch. Amid many difficulties, discouragements aud delays, I began the work of erecting the onilding on Buffalo creek, at the junction of the Evans' ship canal, in tbe autumn of 1842, on tbe spot where now stands the stately elevator of lion. 1J.

nennett, wbicn bas rieen, Pbcenix-like, from tbe ashes of its parent. Indted, the building I then erected nav pern a i De caned tne parent, not only if the Bennett elevator, but of all others, for 1 believe it was the first steam transfer and storage elevator in the world. It was the first succesful application of the valua ble invention of Oliver hvn to the commercial purpose for which it is now so ex tensively employed. It is, however, but justice to state, tbat aa effort in this irec- aon was made a ehort tune bv Vlahlon Kingman, then a forwarding merchant of this cite, now deceased: and. "that an elevator designed to be operated by aorse-power- was constructed, in a ware- touse previously iniui lor ordinary storage urposes, in the Evans' ship canal: but I nform-d by Mr.

Chan. W. Evans, whose alehouse was adj. lining, that King man never unloaded a vessel with it, ai hough he made he attempt. To illnstratt? uta opinion, tbat the plan was imi ra ticable, will here, that a short tiniw before my building completed.

Mr. Kingman in pasipg it, said to me in a farullinr man-tier, tapping me on the shoulder: 'Dait, I am soiry for you, I have been through that null: it won't do; remember what I Fay; Irishmen's backs are the cheapet-t elevators jver built. Soon after my elevator was in iperation be camo to nie, about 2 or 3 o'clock in the afternoon, to get two canal boats loaded tbat day. I reminded bim of the speech he wished me to remember. His eplywas: 'Dart, I find I did not know it "My experiment, from the very first working, was a decided and acknowledged suecees.

ltnin a inontn niter i started a leading forwarder, who had confidently pre dicted was snippers couiu not atrord to oav the charges of elevating by steam, came to me andotfered double rates for accommoda tion, but my bins were all full. Tbe great saving of time by the use of the elevator was immediately seen. To give an instance that occurs to my mind, the schooner John B. Skinner came into port with of wheat early in tbe afternoon, and was received ballast of salt, and left the same evening; maae ner trip to Milan, Ohiob, rought down a second cargo and discharged it; and on her return to Milan went out in company witn vessels which came In with ber on the first trip down, and which had but Just succeeded in getting rid of their freight in tbe old way. in this case the freight work of two vessels was done by one, and instances approaching this have not been uncommon.

It been Baid that 800 bushels an hour waa the extent to which an elevator could be driven, and grain correctly weighed. I began with buckets 28 inches apart, holding about two quarts, and raised without difficulty 1,000 bushels an hour. I soon put tbe buckets some 23 inches apart, and then 10 or 18 inches, till 1,800 or 4,000 bushels an hour were raised. In some ot the elevators now in use tbe buckets hold eight quarts and are only one foot apart, and will raise six or seven thousand bushels an hour, weighing it correctly. Tbe s'orage of the first elevator was 55,000 bushels its ca pacity waa doubled three years later." At tho time ot Mr.

Dart's death, there were 27 elevators, besides two floating le vators, in nse here, bavins a storaere capacity of 5,855,000 bushels and a daily transfer ca pacity of 2,700.000 bushels. The largest stor age elevators were the Bennett, City and Watson. The City elevator was twice burned and rebuilt. Tbe Watson at that time bad the largest (2S8.000 bushels per day) transfer capacity. In 1863, about 70.000.000 bushnls of grain passed through the elevators at this port and Oswego.

This amount of grain could not have been transferred by the modes in use previous to Mr. Dart's invention, and if it were possible, tbe expense would have tx eh twenty Times greater. In 183(5, bushels of wheat arid 204,535 bushels of corn were received here. Ten years later the amount of wheat aggregated bushel. Jn IS54.

bu-bels of corn were received at thia port, bv water. and in 1S58 the 10,000,000 bushel line was reached In wheat. Two years later the wheat receipts aeereeated ls.503,615 bushels, and In 18C1 tbe receipts were 27. 105,219 and of corn 21.024.658 bushels. In 1863 30,436.831 --twila of whea and 24,388,647 bushels of uu landed here.

His opponents calculate withe nical coolness bin chances ot lire and oi conunuea activity, and fondly hope that if they can pro long tbe existence of this parliament until the liberal leader ia well on In tbe eignties, i ce general election would take place under circum stancee much more favorable to them tnan anv which can occur wbild he is still in the enjoyment of bodily and mental strength The government meaus to take the fullest advantage of the septennial act, and to bold pn until absolutely compelled by efflux of time to dissolve parliament. Meauwbile tbe people are to bave a tapte of tbat "resolute government" with which they have been threatened. Uoercion in ireiand, wuicu under Mr. Foster was a kind of grim joke, under Mr. Balfour is to be a stern reality; and the "Kilmainbam garden party' at which Mr.

T. O'Connor need to jibe, is replaced by the plank bed and the purgatorial penances of Tullamore. At home it is difficult to doubt that the schemes of the government to rehabilitate Mr. Matthews, the obnoxious home secretary and to re bull tbe public indignation agalust some recent acts of the police nave iaueo. auj obu juoru Lvtton's appointment is tbe plainest poeeible intimation to tbe world tbat no amount of political indiscTetiou in bis nominee, no until ness or character ninj oaons, No force of criticism by political opponents, or respectful remonstrances by pow erless adherents, will deter lxrd with hU mechanical majority at bia back, from working his own sweet will.

To ronnd off the cle of these defiant acts of high pr rogative, the prime minister entrust the most hot-headed aud unreasonable jkjJi ticiau in parliament with the conduct of negotiations, which, if iiritatiogly or iuso-leutl handle 1, may lead lo tbe most disastrous war which bas alllicted the modern world. Huch, in brief, is the present out look. Lord Halisbury's butter cynicism ha-at any rate this correlative virtue, that he cares little for success or fame or poputai appinaee, aud absolutely nothing for mere place or powtr. The fact, therefore, that bis foreign or domesti? policy is not agee-able bis countrymen, or even to bis own party, will go for little in the determination bis course. He will do what he thiuk-rtght without regard to consequence, and will contemplate tbe issues, whether ol failure or succchs.

With a calm fatalism which has neither hopes nor fears. That will be Lord tsalisbury's course if he is left to himself, but, like other great personages of history, be may find tbat events are stronger than men, aud that so mo meu are stronger than others. Lord Salisbury keenly realizes aud dei lores the fact that even the most powerful minister cannot now a-days do exactly what he chooses. 1 his is one of the considerations which make bim so indillerent to the fascinations of otlice. And, therefore, although his predilection will certainly be for a defiant continuance of "resolute it i ixi'Siblo that be may find himself overruled, Lord Randolph Churchill rejoins bis old colleagues be will ba up Lord Salisbury in a forward and aggressive course.

Mr. (loschen's display of resolution, enterprise and political courage is merely a histrionic performance, designed to serve a party pur pose, and beginning and ending on the platform wbero it is exhibited. In reality. iu his own character and in consultation with bis colleagues, be shrinks by a conge nial and unchangeable instinct from violence. links and extreme measures.

The word "danger," not in lie pnywcai, pus in its political significance, bas supernatural terrors for the seemingly valiant chancellor of tbe exchequer. If once be begins to fear hi chiefs oolicv is danzerous.be will waver. and if he cannot induce his leader to retreat or his companions in arms to mutiny be will seek some convenient opportunity for de sertlng. The belief entertained by Mr. Gladstone and LU Intimate advisers tbat a general election can be forced next year bas been greatly increased by events of the past week.

especially the refusal ot the torv constituents of Bir Jno. Gorst to adopt resolutions of confidence in tbe policy of the government. This bas also bad a depres- ing inaueuce on iu ive. non, ueo. J.

After the eetto with Aahton In St. James tiail on the night of hla first appearance In lyiiujiin, Hullivan was chuffed considerably aUrtil his rushes, many of the spectator expressing the opinion that thay were at firt too strong. Hullivan replied; "Yen, they were, but 1 waa bound to show you people omethimr, and I did. Aahton looked tired after the first round so I lot up on him somewhat."

Hullivan ao fcnowledged the introduction by a bow and comical grimace, at the a-mo time apologizing for hla lack of covering. Mr. John said: You are a fine, big fel low. I arn glad to see you among pa and I liope you will succeed." Hullivan thanked the Knglliih patron of athletic sports and assured lilm that it was bis lutention to succeed.

Letcbworth, president of the Btate board of charities, aud Dr. Cbailea 8. Hoy secretary of the board, appeared before tbe committee on poorbouse and insane, at tbe committee room in tbe City and County ball. Tbe board of supervisors adjourned to the same room, eo that members might participate iu the conference. Dr.

Hovt stated that for the present the crowding at the county asylum might be re- i a farm in 1. a nuifrhWir. nood of the Almshouse, but further stated it would be only a queelion of time before tbey would be obliged to bay iarming proierty on which to lemove the chronic- insane. Mr. Letchwortb etated that he was op posed to auy temporizing process; that Ibe utoeusity for a ai existed a.

the preseui time, aud tuas immeuiate eueps uuuw uo taken to meet the rmeiirency. That the number of insane at the county asylum had almost doubled in about ten yearn, and tha. it would beliut a short time before there would one lbouaud patioute. lhat tin property adjoining was at present very tillable, would u) IU a suoi niuo ouj toiuided by buildings, lactones, etc. lbat the budding thac wen erected upou the present location witbou.

It is this feeling that keepe uiauy laiuiiics from sending then friends directly to the county asylum or tut. State asylum, because tuey know that after a while they will bo ti aiwderrod to tbe poor house. Auot er great point to be couoidereu is that at tbe present time many of the insane earn tueir own living, and under more ta-vurable circumstances many more would be able to. Tbey are therefore not dependent lor support upou the charity of the wuuity, aud they should not certainly be ciatwed as or with paupers. Again, no out wants lo make pahticai capital out of the care and luauasjuieut of tne luwiue.
