Loxpox, Nov. 15.— Mr. Goschen, in spite of rumors to the contrary and the unpopularity of the wheel tax, persists in that measure. The government, however, will probably leave libert@of action to their supporters, in which case the proposal is tolerably sure of being re- jected. The lord chancellor, Lord Salisbury, will take an early opportunity of noticing the at- tack by Li tandolph Churchill, charging him with persisting in perpetuating sinecure Offices. Walter Crane, a talented artist, who is well known as a socialist, now openly comes out as an apologist for anarchism, and declares that anarchism is merely an ideal aiming at the absolute freedom of the individual or the social group. The brave men at Chicago, he says, were sacrificed not because of the bomb, but because they championed the cause of labor, ‘The concluding volume of the “Encyclopedia Brittanica,” published to-day, contains an essay by Swinburne on the dramatist John Webster. BALD KNOBBERS’ VENGEANCE. Five of the Witnesses Against the Bald Knobbers’ Leader Lynched. Sr. Louis, Nov. 15.—A special to the Post- Dispatch from Springfield, Mo., says: A rumor reached this city this morning from Christian county, the home of the famous Bald Knobber king, Dave Walker, to the effect that five of the witnesses who testified against him in his trial for murder have been lynched by ex-Bald Knobbers. It is said the friends af Walker waited until the supreme court had passed upon his case, and when it was announced that the ex-chief of the Bald Knobber regulators must hang, they wreaked yengeance on the five leading witnesses who brought him within the shadow of the gallows. WHAT THE FARMERS WANT. Master Draper’s Opening Address to the National Grange at Topeka. ToreKa, Kan,, Nov. 15.—The national grange, order of patrons of industry, is in annual ses- sion in this city. This morning Acting Mas James Draper delivered his annual address, He paid a tribute to the last master of the na- tional grange, Put Darden. He spoke of the i condition of the order, and said g the past year 193 subordinate granges had been organized, the greatest crease being in North Carolina, Past experi- ence showed that the organization needed a more perfect system in the supervision of its legislative i sts, and he recommended that me person with authority to act for the © be stationed in Washington during ses- of Congress, After criticizing the action of the United States Senate in rejecting the bill to enlarge the powers and duties of the Department of Agriculture, he TURNED HIS ATTENTION TO TRUSTS, which he denounced as injurious to the pro- ducer and consumer alike to an extent unpar- allelled in the world’s history, He said the grange, as the only national organization of agricultural interests, “must take the first ag- gressive steps in defending thatindustry which underlies al! other industries and affects so se- iously the national prosperity.” He spoke of alarming ase in food adulteration, which, he said, has assumed a proportion 80 Sigantic that it threatens the healthfulness of nearly every article of dict. ON THE TARIFF QUESTION he said: “The declaration of purposes of our order demands protection for the weak, re- straint upon the strong.” Equitable tariff legislation is an issue second to none in this direction, and to accomplish anything we must use our undivided influence and organized power in demanding a reduction of the highly protected industries to correspond with the protection agriculture is now receiving, or else an increase of protection to agriculture that shall be equitable and just'to all concerned. Mr. Draper also spoke of the state ugiversi- ties established by the government Tor the benefit of sons of farmers and artisans, and of other matters pertaining to the work of the grange, ae eae No Woman Suffrage in Vermont.

REFUSING TO TAKE THROUGH FREIGHT AT THE CUT RATES. New York, Noy. 15.—It is reported that the weaker trunk lines have withdrawn from through west-bound business to-day and will not tuke any freight at the cut rates. Their action is based on the factthat the through bus- iness on which the cut is made by the New York Central, forms only a small part of the total tonnage, and if they put the reduced rates in force they would be obliged to make a corresponding reduction in local rates, On this ground they have decided to give up the through business for the present. es To Extend the Ashbourne Act.

Lowpox, Nov. 15.—In the house of commons this afternoon Mr. Smith, the government leader, gave notice that the government would, on Monday next, present a bill asking a vote of 5,000,000 pounds for the extension of the Ash- bourne act. —>___ Ready With Its Cash.

This for his wed- ding day. By noon awnings had been erected in front of the Endicott mansion and of St. John’s church. This provision against the rain seemed to propitiate the weather de- partment, for the rain ceased to fall and a mild London fogginess shrouded the city. Before 2 o'clock, the hour fixed for the wed- ding, the church was well filled with a company istinguished guests. After Mr, Sigourney Butler, of Boston; Mr. Walter V. R.

Denied by the President and by Sena- tor Blackburn. The President has denied the’ truth of the reported interview between himself and Judge Rucker, in which the President was quoted as stating, a week or so before the election, that Hill, Grant and Hewitt would defeat him in New York. enator Blackburn, in whose presence the w was said to have occurred, says in an w that he hopes Judge Rucker did not authorize the statement, as it is untrue. He says: “I took Mr. Rucker, an ex-Kentackian, and introduced him to the President at his own request. It was not one week, but several yecks before the election, ‘The interview lasted but a few minutes, there being no busi- ness to transact. ‘The President mentioned neither Mr. Hewitt’s nor Mr. Grant's name, nor did any one else, The Presidont never hinted, however remotely, at any suspicion that he was to be traded off or foully dealt with by any one, either in New York or anywhere else. On the contrary, he spoke hopefully of the out- look, but added substantially that he was pre- pared to abide any verdict that the people might see fit to render. He did refer to the olitical situation in New York, expressing a ope that matters would be harmonized and straightened out to our satisfaction.” THE COURTS.

GRAHAM, ACCUSED OF PURLOINING CERTAIN PAPERS, CLAIMS THAT HE WAS ATTORNEY IN THE CASES OF MRS. PATTEN VS. FLEMING, AND 18 RIGHTFULLY ENTITLED TO THE POSSESSION OF THE PAPERS IN QUESTION. In the Criminal Court this morning the case of James H. Graham, charged with house- breaking in the day on the 10th of September ' last, was tried. Mr. E. B. Hay appeared for the defendant and Mr. Lipscomb prosecuted. TESTIMONY OF REPRESENTATIVE GLOVER. Representative John M. Glover testified that Mr. Graham had been in his employ asa secre- tary for a year or fifteen months, and was dis- charged September 8; that on the afternoon of the 10th of that month witness found thata chest of drawers in his house had been opened and certain papers taken therefrom. These related to the suit of Mrs. Anastasia Patten — BR. L Fleming, and included a report Mr. Fague, an ex] as to the measure- ment of the work in . Patten’s house, and a brief witness had prepared in the case, and also some of the court papers. Witness saw Graham enter his some twenty minutes before he discove: the breaking of the drawer. He found that entrance to the house had been made by thrusting anarm through a window. Witness subsequently found some of the court papers in the clerk's office, and two books he missed at the time were returned to him (Glover) by mail, directed in Grahath’s hand- writing. A letter was also received from Mr. Graham atthe same time. Witness identified the paper in which the books were wrapped. Witness said that on Saturday defendant came to the house intoxicated and he discharged him for that and other reasons, and noti him not to enter his house again. MR. GLOVER CROSS-EXAMINED. On cross-examination Mr. Glover said that in his contested-election case Mr.Graham was em- ployed at $2 per dayin Missouri to look up evi- nence, and he brought him here, paying him $100 per month. He was employed as law clerk and had signed the brief in the Patton-Fleming law case as an attorney. He admitted that Mr. Graham was an attorney of record in a number of cases for the stipulated compensation of $100 er month. Witness said he promised to pay ‘im for the full month when he was discharged, but in the morning Graham told him he dared not discharge him for he knew too much, and witness then discharged him, to take effect at once. He saw him next on Monday afternoon, hen he entered the yard. Witness did not follow him, because he had threatened witness if he crossed his path it would not be well with him, and he would take his grievance out of witness’ hide, and he (witness) did not care to be engaged in a street row, and further he had no idea That Graham would attempt to enter the house. Witness knew that he had locked the papers up on Saturday morning about the same time that he notified Graham of his dis- chagge. July 1, 1888, witness was in Mis- soum, but did not remember haying written to Mr. Graham in reference to the Fleming pa- pers, The letter was produced and witness said that he had not written it, but it was IN HIS WIFE'S HANDWRITING, and he did not dictate it. He thought that he was informed by Mr. Graham as to the status ofan appropriation in the contested-clection case. Mr. Glover examined the letter, and stated that ‘some portions he directed to be written and others he did not, Mr. Hay said that he wished to show that the papers had been in possession of Graham in July. The court directed the letter to be read, The last clause was as follows: “Did James give you some papers in the box in the red-room? The; are the Fleming papers. Take good caro oj them.” This clause, Mr. Glover said, wes not dictated by him, but’ had been tacked on by his wife. Several telegrams were shown, and witness acknowledged that the Fleming papers had been expressed September 1 to Mr. Graham from Portland, where Mrs. Patten was ill and where she subsequently died. Mr. Graham re- turned the papers on the morning of the 8th, and witness knew that the books were there on the 10th. Mr. Hay asked if Mr. Graham was not the attorney of record in the Fleming case. Mr. Glover answered that in the sense that his name was signed to the papers he was, but he was not employed in the case. He (Mr. Graham) had appeared in the cases on several occasions, Witness was not armed on the morning of the 8th, Witness asked Graham why he was so late, and did not say he had no further use for him, THE COACHMAN’S STORY, James Sharon testified that he was the coach- man; saw Graham at the basement door Sun- day morning putting hishand through a broken light. Witness would not let him in, It was Monday mght they went to Justice Bundy’s, and Mr. Glover got the warrant, On cross-examination witness said he had been employed at Mr. Glover's two years; knew Mr. Graham: always understood that he was Mr. Glover's lawyer. On Sunday witness re- fused to let Mr. Graham in, for he had orders to let noone in. It was a little quiet way to get in the house by putting the hand through the broken light. Kronday Mr. Graham was moving and witness had to take his wife to Mr. Glover's house, for she was sick. She was in the room next to the office, 30 feet from the’ door, aud could not see the door. Re-direct—Witness had been to Virginia, and returned Sunday, finding his wife sick at Mr. Graham's. His orders were if Mr. Graham came to put him out if he was able. Miss Minnie Sharon testified that she was in Mr. Glover's house on Monday; saw Graham the window and heard him moving about; fae the basement door open. On cross-examination witness said that she did not see Mr, Graham, but imagined it was him; it was about 4 o'clock; saw Mr. Graham pass the window. TESTIMONY OF DETECTIVE FLINDER. Charles E. Flinder testified that Mr. Glover sent for him; that he had a conversation with Graham, and he said that he had the Fleming apers; that he had taken «cane out of the Eras and returned it; also the books, and he would return them, He frankly admitted that he had the Fleming papers, aud said he was entitled to them as an attorney. THE FLEMING-PATIEN LAW SUIT. Mr. Glover was recalled and testified that Mr. Fleming had built Mrs. Patten’s house and the Fague papers were the measurements, showing that she had overpaid Fleming $30,000, Mr. Fague had been paid #500 for them, and there were also other papers which to rome rties would be worth thousands of dollars, ‘hese had never been filed, but were to be used in the case. ‘They were kept in his office with the other papers in the case. MR, HAY CLAIMS AN ACQUITTAL. Mr. Hay, for the defendant, claimed that from the testimony he had the right to ask that ' the court instruct the jury to return a verdict of not guilty, and he would do so. He claimed that there was no testimony to show that the defendant had turned a.knob or bolt. The court said that there was certainly some evidence which tended to show that there was an entry and overruled the motion, The defendant noted an exception. GRAHAM'S STORY. ‘The defendant testified that he was an at- torney at law; had been here since May 3 or 4, 1887; had been employed by Mr. Glover in the contested election cake and was called here to do legal work for Mr. Glover. After Glover came back from his disastrous defeat for gover- nor the door-bells were all disconnected and t! servants were directed to admit no one. There- fore the rear door had to be used. On the 8th witness went there and attempted to get in and finally went to the back door and up to Mr. Glover's office, where he was at witness’ desk with a pistol in his pocket. ‘They had some words and parted company. Witness denied that he was intoxicated or that any one had ever seen him drink. He denied that he en- tered the house after the 8th. Me claimed that he was the attorney in the Patten cases.

Inptanaro.ts, Ixp., Nov. 15.—The delegates and others who are in attendance on the twelfth general assembly of the Knights ofLabor have settled down to work and the time away from the convention is largely devoted to com- mittee work, Still much gossip is indulged in regarding the probable outcome of the meet- ing, both as regards the election of officers and as to the future success or failure of the order, Two years ago General Master Workman Powdérly announced that he was beginning his last term of office and at the Mi lis con- vention last year he repeated the statement, In view of these declarations he might be thought to be out of the fight, but such is not believed to be the case by many. POWDERLY NOT YET TIRED OF OFFICE. Instead of repeating his former plain re- fusals to continue to serve he now simply re- fuses to speak, and this fact is considered an evidence of willingness to accept. While many are anxious about the outbome, they express a great firm belief in the long life and ity of the organization, “A GIGANTIC CONFIDENCE GAME,” Other, and of these many are not delegates, are equally firm in the opinion that these are the last daysof what one of them calls “a gigantic idence game.” These lalter think that the overthrow of Powderiy and his asso- ciates in the general executive board is essen- tial to the good of the order, and some of them assert that an investigation of the iuside work- ings at the get will reveal an tounding state of affairs. ‘They claim that the general executive board have been living at Laser eryooae and not in the i of the working classes, romises a big sensation before the general aaemsbt ood It is claimed by those profess to be.in- formed of the facts that the cause for the delay in Powderly’s report was that he had ex- itchman a severe THE HOUSE OF BISHOPS.
