Sanborn, the veteran correspondent and anti-slavery associate of John Brown, Emerson, Garrison and Wendell Phillips, has a letter in the Springfield Republican of yesterday, in which he says: “Some of the Boston newspapers men- tion the friendly reception that Douglass of late years has more than once had in that city. But it is not yet thirty-five years since a broadcloth mob in Bostofi, among whose silent or active promoters were the fathers and grandfathers of many citizens now prominent, took possession of @ meeting at the Tremont Temple, where I was presiding and Douglass was an ex- pected speaker, got the police on the side of the mob (by their ‘property and stand- ing,’ no doubt,) and had Douglass removed from the hall by two policemen for ‘dis- turbing’ their burglarious meeting. I ad- journed the legitimate meeting to a colored church on ‘Nigger hill,’ not far from where the gorgeous monstrosity of the state house extension now sprawls itself, and in the evening we held a crowded and un- vexed assembly, where Douglass had his full say. But as we were leaving the tem- ple in the early afternoon, a college class- mate of mine, who had been mildly active in the mob, said to me, ‘This will help our trade with South Carolina’—and the good, simple soul said it in-all seriousness. From that state of things how remote do we now seem? Yet Douglass was then well pest middle life, and, till he met and shar- ed the confidence of John Brown, had probably no kope that he should ever see the freedom of his race. “Some accounts of Douglass speak of his ‘alleged’ implication in the plans of Brown in Virginia. He has left no room for doubt on that score; for in his ‘Life and Times’ (Hartford, 1882,) Douglass told how Brown, in Springfield, es early as 1847, imparted to him the plan of invading Virginia; and Douglass was one of the last of his secret supporters to hold an interview with Brown, at Chambersburg (August 21-22, 1859), which he has also described in the same volume. In consequence of his con- nection with Brown’s scheme he went to England in the next November, as Edwin Morton had done a few weeks earlier, and for the same reason—coupled with the wish to prevent the part taken by Gerrit Smith from coming to the full knowledge of the slaveholders. Douglass was sent for by Gov. Wise of Virginia; Mr. Smith and Mor- ton were summoned as witnesses by Mason and Jefferson Davis, along with George De Bapt of Detroit and the late Lewis Hayden of Boston—and Mason notified his Senate committee, with true Virginia hauteur (May 24, 1860), ‘that the said Morton could not be found; that Mr. Smith’s health was such as to render it improper to bring him here, and that said De Bapt and Hayden were negroes.’ So, in the dialect of slay- ery, was Douglass; but his fame will out- last_that of Mason, both as orator and pa- triot.”” Indicted for Election Frauds. Twenty-one indictments for election frauds perpetrated during the fall election have been returned by the special grand jury at Kansas City which since late in January has been investigating charges of’ corruption made during the past few months. Of the offenders, Justice of the Peace Owen W. Krueger, against whom. there are two indictments, 1s the most im- portant and best known. He is charged with being an accomplice in ballot-box stuffing and other crookedness. The frauds were all in the interest of the democratic party, except that of O. W. Krueger, who was the republican candidate for justice of the peace, who received a majority almost exactly the same as that given to the dem- ocratic ticket. This fact in itself attracted attention to Krueger, ———+ee—_. Capt.

DOWN TO BUSINESS Tho Senate Passed Fifty-four Bills i at Last Night’s Session. SEVEN WERE OF LOCAL IMPORTAN Mr. Hill Made Things Lively for Quite a While. INTERESTING INCIDENTS The Senate buckled down to business last evening with a will and passed no less than fifty-four bills between 8 o'clock and 11:25, or an average of one bill about every three minutes.. Of these measures seven were of local importance, the District bills that secured favorable action being here named: To amend the charter of the Rock Creek Railway Company (H.R. 8337); to authorize the Washington and Marlboro’ Electric railway to extend its line into the District (H.R. 8698); to amend the charter of the Maryland and Washington Railway Company (H.R. 8638); to regulate the sale of milk (E.R. 8231); to incorporate the Capital Railway Company (H.R. 8714); to amend the charter of the Brightwood Com- pany (H.R. 4479); and to establish harbor regulations (S. 1503). At first it looked as though there would be nothing whatever done with the local bills, for Mr. Hill showed a disposition to object to every District measure unless consent were given to pass the bill amend- ing the charter of the District of Columbia Suburban road. This was the third bill called up, Mr. Daniel asking for its con- sideration. Mr. Quay arvse to say that he regretted exceedingly that he would be compelled to object to the consideration of that particular measure. That settled it, so far as the bill was then concerned, but, like @ certain spcok in literature, it would not down, but kept bobbing up to annoy the Senate until it was finally exorcised by the holding of a pow-wow in which, after some rather harsh words were spoken, everybody came to a pleasant agreement, and then the machine moved along like clock-work. Three general bills had been passed be- fore Mr. Faulkner called up the bill to allow the Rock Creek Company to lease cr purchase connecting lines, and to change its name to the Capitol Traction Company. Mr. Hill Objects. “I am constrained to object to that bill,” said Mr. Hill. “I appeal to the Senator,” said Mr. Faulk- ner, “not to object. The bill is not con- nected in any way with,and does not affect anything, I am satisfied, to which he has reference, end its passage is very impor- tant to carry out the policy we have es- tablished here in reference to these roads.” “There is another policy to be established here,” retorted Mr. Hill, “which is just as important as this. I am constrained to object in the interests of fair play.” “That does not apply to me,” answered Mr. Faulkner. Then the cloud passed merely because no other local bill was called up fora few min- utes,but aftesy a couple of general bills had been passed the specter showed its un- canny head once more. Mr. Gibson asked for consent to consider the Washington and Marlboro’ bill, but Mr. Hill, though one of Mr. Gibson’s greatest friends and admirers, asked to have the measure laid aside temporarily, so that he might ex- amine it. Mr. Hill had by this time sé- cured himself behind a breastwork of ob- jection, and was master of the situation, so far as the local bills were concerned, but his influence soon spread in a curious way to even general legislation, and it seemed as though his persistence about District matters might result in a complete dead- lock in the Senate by establishing that mystic but powerful chain of senatorial objections that is like an octopus when it gets started. Nine measures of outside interest had been passed when Mr. Gallinger tried to call up the bill to amend the charter of the Brightwood Railway Company. “This is a very important bill,” remarked Mr. Hill, quietly looking up from his desk, “and I shall have to object to it.” Mr. Gallinger Takes a Hand. Mr. Gallinger sat down with something in his face that foretold of trouble later. His cpportunity came in another minute, for the very next measure called up was for a bridge across the Monongahela river, which Mr. Quay wanted passed. “I asked unanimous consent a moment ago,” said Mr. Gallinger, “for the con- sideration of a biil unanimously reported frem the District ccmmittee. There is no reason why it should have been objected to, but it was; and I object to the con- sideration of the present bill.” “I did not object to the bill of the Sena- ter from New Hampshire,” said Mr. Quay, somewhat plaintively. But Mr. Gallinger was not to be placated. His ire was arous- ed, and so was that of Mr. Quay, who ob- jected when Mr. Platt came forward next with a general bill. “Tt seems,” he said, “that business might as well cease at once if every bill is to be objected to according to the declaration of the Senator from New Hampshire.” Senators Quay and Gallinger occupy ad- jcining seats, and things looked ripe for a Tow. “According to the declaration of the Sen- ator from New York, you mean,” correct- ed Mr. Gallinger. “I hope I shall hot be punished,” begged Mr, Platt. “You will be,” said Mr. Quay. Then a moment later Mr. Gallinger made a statement. He said that the bill which Mr. Hill wanted passed had been carefully considered by the District committee,which had at a recent meeting refused to report the measure to the Senate. Out of cour- tesy, however, the bill was allowed to be placed on the calendar without recom- mendation. He said that if Mr. Hill’s rule of conduct was to be followed, the Senate might as well stop work then and there. “I propose to have fair play,” he con- cluded, “and that is all I ask. I do not propose that any Senator coming in here and asking unanimous consent to consider a bill that could not get a majority vote in committee shall obstruct the passage of bills that were unanimously reported by the committee.” Mr. Harris said that he was in thorough sympathy with Mr. Gallinger’s suggestion, but he did not think it justified either of them in thwarting the purpose of other Senators. “The course of the Senator from New York,” he concluded, “is, in my judg- ment, not to be approved.” Messrs. Hill and Harris Exchange Compliments, “I do not know,” said Mr. Hill sharply, “that I have endeavored to regulate my conduct so as to meet the approval of the Senator from Tennessee, and I shall not endeavor to do so in the future.’ “He has signally failed, if he has en- deavored,” snapped Mr. Harris in return. “The Senator can pursue his course and I will pursue my own,” said Mr. Hill. “I know my rights and he knows his.” After this brief exchange of amenities, Mr. Hill pointed out the fact that he had never asked unanimous consent for the consideration of the suburban bill. It was Mr. Daniel who had done so. Mr. Quay re- minded Mr. Hill that before the Senate had assembled in the evening he had men- tioned to Mr. Hill and to Mr. Daniel that “by force of circumstances” he would be compelled to object to that bill, so they were not taken by surprise. Mr. Hill re- plied that several Senators had notified him of the same intention, Mr. Quay being the last of these. He intimated that ob- jection had been made to the bill, not so much because of the opposition of certain Senators to the features of that measure as because they have other bills that they have some sort of interest in. Mr. Quay answercd that, as far as he was concerned, he had no interest in, and cared nething about any railroad bill on the ficor, . “The Senator very frankly stated to me,” said Mr. Hill, “that the Philadelphia syn- dicate are the persons for whom he made objection to the bill.” “I did not,” said Mr. Quay. “And not because the bill affected them,” continued Mr. Hill, undisturbed by this flat denial, “but because it took away cer- tain franchjses which they desired to get. That was the milk in the cocoanut, and that accounted for it.” “I did not mention the Philadelphia syn- dicate,” said Mr. Quay. “That is a phrase coined by the Senator.’ “No,” said Mr. Hill, with a gesture, es though the denials wearied him, “because it was very well known. The Senator will not now deny but that it was the Philadel- phia syndicate for whom he spoke. ccurse he will not. He is a frank man. He went on to say that he had no disposi- ticn to interfere with other bills, and he would not object to any bill that did not affect his measure, and whose friends have not endeavored to obstruct his bill; but he on fair play, and he thought he knew the best way to get fair treatment is to insist that all bills should be treated and ccrsidered alike. A Gleam of Light. Mr. Gallinger explained that the bill for which he was fighting, that to amend the charter of the Brightwood road, would not in any'way conflict with Mr. Hill’s meas- ure. The road, he said, lost $18,000 last 4k snd this bill was simply to bulld a ttle loop to help the company out of its ‘difficulties. Having thus cleared the at- mosphere, Mr. Gallinger withdrew his ob- jJections to Mr. Quay’s bill and that of Mr, Platt. These bills were at once passed, and it looked for a moment as though the spcok had been finally quieted, but almost immediately afterward it rose again, and this time Mr. Daniel took the floor to make a brief explanation as to his attftude in re- gard to the suburban bill. He said that the suburban company was chartered in 1892, when it proceeded to organise, and since then it has spent some $11,000. It was re- ported without objection from the District committee. The panic, however, prevented the incorporators from carrying out their «nterprise, and they were now merely ask- ing what nearly every other railroad in the District had asked, an extension of its EES = “They have been assailed,” he said, “and have been fought at nearly every stage by those interested in a great street railway syndicate, who are attempting to buy up and monopolize, as far as -possible, the street railways of Washington, and whose Power to influence and the various ways in — ater be Smee has been such at up to the present time, although this bill has been before the District of Colum- bia committee for over a year, it has never had the opportunity of a fair hearing in the Senate. It has passed the other House, but has not been reported here, Why Mr. Daniel Did Not Object. “I did not object to the railway bills which other gentlemen brought up, be- cause I was assured by them that they ad not belong to nor were they allied with these who were fighting this bill. But for that fact I would have objected to their bills, and I propose whenever I have the opportunity to object to the bills of those who, in my judgment, whatever may be the judgment cf other gentlemen, have made an unjust opposition to a public enterprise, end who have denied to it a right which has been granted sometimes over and over again to other street railways in this Dis- eeu which some of them are asking Ww. Mr. Harris explained that he was in fa) of the bill, and but for the course of the Senators from New York and Virginia in objecting io ee nas the committee was unanimous would u! the of that measure. ae Poe ee On motion of Mr. Gorman the Senate passed the bill relating to the Rock Creek road, and after six general bills had been passed Mr. Wolcott called up the bill relat- ing to the Washington and Mariboro’ road. The bill was amended to correspond to the action of the District committee last Fri- day, compelling the company to bulld a bridge over the Eastern branch. The Dill was passed as amended. Mr. Blanchard called up the bill to incorporate the Capital Company, but Mr. Aldrich objected, sa: that he thought the Senate had pee enough railroad bills that evening. About an hour later, however, Mr. Blanchard re- newed his request and the bfll was passed. Mr. Gibson called up the bill to amend the charter of the Maryland and Washing- ton road. There was some debate as to whether there had been an objection made previously to the bill by Mr. Harris, and Soally, the bill was passed without amend- men The bill to establish harbor regulations was, on motion of Mr. Proctar, taken up and passed without debate. The Milk Bill Passed. Mr. Gallinger called up the bill regulating the sale of milk in the District, which was passed after a great many amendments had been accepted to make the bill conform to the wishes of the District committee, ‘The bill was ordered to a conference and Senators Faulkner, Harris and Gallinger were appointed conferees on the part of the Senate. Mr. Gallinger next called up the Bright- wood bill and Mr. Hill explained that since his first objection to its consideration he had examined it and found it to be most meritorious. He therefore withdrew his objection and the bill was d. It was quite appropriate that just before the Senate adjourned and after the last bill for the evening had been Mr. Daniel made a few remarks relative to the suburban bill, because of all the disturb- ance throughout the session. He said he had intended to ask leave to bring that bill up again, but that there were so few Senators then present, and being informed that a quorum might possibly be called, he had decided not to do it. He therefore asked the Senate to give him a fair time before the adjournment of Congress, say fifteen or twenty minutes, for the argu- ments for and against this bill to be stated. Mr. Harris told Mr. Daniel that he would cheerfully co-operate with him and there the episode closed. ——_e2-—____—__ Terrific Explosion at Brooklyn. A terrific explosion, which resulted in the death of one person and the injury of a number of others, wrecked several houses, and shattered all the windows within @ radius of several blocks, occurred last night in_a two-story frame structure at Nos. 27, 29° and 31 Johnson avenue, Brooklyn. One bcy was killed. He was John Fluhr, six years old, skull fractured. The injured are: Peter Wenz, four years old, skull fractured, leg broken; will probably die. John Schoen, fourteen years, badly cut about the face and body. Annie Weiss, thirty years, se- vere scalp wounds. Several others who were more or less injured, did not wait for surgical assistance. The cause of the ex- plosion is a mystery which the police have not yet been able to fathom. ——_—___+e+—____ Mardi Gras at Little Rock. A special from Little Rock, Ark., sent last night, says: The city is patrolled to- night by 100 extra police, and over 300 citi- zens, who volunteered during the day. to assist the authorities in maintaining order throughout the city. A dozen masquerade balls are in progress, but no one is allowed to appear on the streets wearing a mask. By order of Chairman Rottalen of the vigiy lance committee, suspicious persons found on the streets of the city after 9 o'clock, who- were unable to give satisfactory ac- counts of themselves, were taken to the police station. About fifty arrests have been made, and out of the lot the police ex- pect to identify several who are responsible for the recent hold-ups that have occurred in the city. Everything is very quiet in the down-town districts, the streets being al- most entirely deserted. +o2—___ = Officers Elected.
