Circuit Court Judge Fox Shot by a Law- yerin Forest City, Ark.—Insecurity of the Executors of the Law. LittLe Rock, Ark., March 21, 1874, John W. Fox, Circuit Judge of the Eleventh Judicial district, was shot while passing along a street in Forest City at eight o’clock this morning by one James Aldriage, a young Southern lawyer, who has been practising in this State. Judge Fox ‘Was on his way to tHe Post Office from his hotel, when Aldridge stepped out of a drug store and ex- claimea:—‘‘Now, Mr. Judge Fox,” and fired. The Judge sank to the ground, crying out:—“Oh! Lord! Iam a dead man.” The cause of the terrible deed is not dificult to determine. It appears that during the last term of the Court Aldridge on one occasion behaved in a most disorderly manner and was rebuked and ad- monished by Judge Fox, who reminded him in general that it was nis place to assist in main- taining the discipline ot the Court rather than attempt by word and deed to degrade it im the estimation of less intelligent people. Some cavilling and snecring led to his being fined and sent to prison for ten days for contempt of Court. He was released again through the mediation of friends, ana at once re-entered the court to attend to some business he was sup- posed to have on hand. He soon vegan to exhibit the same disagreeable temperament that had led to his imprisonment in the first instance, and he was ordered to be imprisoned a second time for discourteous and unbecoming language in the court room during the transaction of business, For this imprisonment he determined to kill Fox. Either by accident or design he met the Judge in the street this morning, as above stated, and, hav- ing a loaded double barrel shotgun in his hand at the time, he discharged the contents of both bar- rels into the body of the Judge, who died at one o'clock. This is the second Circuit Judge assassinated in this State within six months. Aldridge was a member of the last Arkansas Legislature. He de- livered himself up tothe Sheriff after committing the bioody deed. WEATHER REPORT. PSS eI) War DEPARTMENT, OFFICE OF THE CHIEF SIGNAL OFFICER, WASHINGTON, March 22—1 A. M, } Probabilities.

Gaddis, the General Freight Agent of the Erie Railroad, The following additional facts concerning tue atrike of the com- pany’s dock hands were elicited :— Mr. Gaddis states that on Friday night an effort was made by the company to arrive at a settie- ment with the men. He claims that the company offered to pay AT THE RATE OF FIFTY DOLLARS PER MONTH for ten hours’ work, and twenty cents per hour for all extra labor done outside of that time, and day the Whole day was to be counted for them, working hours of it. These terms, says the agent, were offered to the workmen, and kept open jor their acceptance from nine o'clock on Friday night until half-past eight yesterday morning, after which hour the company commenced to take on new hands. On Friday night the laborers held a meeting in Jersey City, at which the Rev. Fatner Concilio, the Catholic priest of St, Michaei’s parish, was present and urged the men to go to work, telling them how «uticuit it is in these hard times to ootain em. ployment. Yesterday a meeting was held by the freight agents ol the brie, Pennsylvania and New York Central railroads at which it was agreed to fix tue price of iaver tor Gock hands at seventeen apd a hall cents per hour for actual time at work, and twenty-llve cents for every hour over and above ten that mignt be worked, The men With whom the reporter con- versed flatiy deny this, and say that Mr. Gaddis wanted TO GET ELEVEN HOURS’ DAILY LABOR out of them for $50 month, and they would have Accepted the proposition given above as hia. Some ol the laborers vo.unteered tou go betore the ireight ageutand contrauict his statement, ‘The agent for the ivie road employed new hanas yesteruuy, He 8a)s that over 60 persons offered their services at seventeen anda hall ceuts per hour, the rate agreed upon by the combined com- panies.

Some of the Penn-yivania Company's hands say that their wages were reduced tweive aud a half per cent on the lsc of November last, and that on the 1st of January a further reduction o: ten per cent was ordered, Alter the second reduction they were put on three-quarter time uowl wwe Hirst of the present month. i cemmenced paying twenty ceats per hour in 1864; since tuen 4 has continued up to last Novemver. The only reasou given by tue company for tls wholesome CUTTING DOWN OF THE POOR MAN'S LOAF appears to be that the labor market 1s over- | outsiders were to be employed at any price, the | railroad monopolisis determined to make the | present reduction ol wages. While the ageut was conversing with the re- porter, a gentleman entered the office who said that oue of the new hands had been chucked over- board, but was fished out again, Tms was looked upon as a proof of the men’s earnestness to press their claims. This amusing episode tuok place at Pier 32 North River. The number of men out of work from the Erie Company 18 475; bemg 3500n the Long Dock and 125 on pier 31, There are about 175 men out of those employed by the Pennsylvania Company. The strikers, Who were hanging about the cor- ners, looked upon the reduction of their Wages as an egregious OUTRAGE UPON RECOGNIZED RIGHTS of workingmen, ‘itiey say that house rent, coal, clothing, tudeed, ali the necessaries of life are as expensive now as during the years when they re- ceived the old rate oi wages. Even then, with much economy and seli-denial, it was olten a dift- cult task tor them to make both ends meet, They say that the compeny is committing a Mere wanton outrage in this unlooked-tor atteinpt togrind the poor workingman to the last cent. The companies are all wealthy, and becommg more so every year, The men at this rate will be rowing more and more miserably pvor, and to lepend upon smailer wages than tliose heretofore earned by them will be to reduce tue strikers as well as tueir families to beggary. Many of the men now on strike have been for iong years past in the employ of the companies. They have uni- formly PERFORMED THEIR TOILSOME TASK with cheeriuiness and alscrity; they are regretful at being driven to this step, but think it their duty to resist what is iooked upon by them as an at- | tempt to crush the semblance of American man- hood out of their bodies. The reporver ascertained that tne new hands, who had been driven off in the morning, were some twenty Italians contracted for by tne scav- enger mongers, who traffic in the ignorance and want of the unfortunate sons ol Italy that are cast enuiless and iriendiess upon our shores, As tuey lo not understand our language or manners they are as helpless as 60 many coolies on the coast of Cuba, The men protest against these poor for- | @igners being taken from soup houses and police stations, a3 the companies are doing, and putting them in the place o: heip who have always dis- charged their duties faithiully and well. organize themselves into a mutual protective as- sociation. THE CLEVELAND CRUSADERS. New Tactics Foreshadowed—Probable Result of the Mayor's Proclamation. CLEVELAND, Ohlo, March 21, 1874. The crusaders rested from their labors to-day, so far as outdoor demonstrations were concerned, but held religious services in several of the churches, The proclamation of the Mayor is con- | strued by each party as being favorable to their own side of the question, but the general impres- sion is that the tactics will be changed on both sides, The ladies will go in smailer squads and the saloon keepers will generally close their doors pelling the women to move along and not obstruct the sidewalks or to attract a crowd around them, This will virtually put a stop to the systemof pray- ing within or in front of the saloons, ‘The leading Jadies say they wish to do nothing in opposition to the Mayor’s proclamation or that will produce dis- order, or to cause @ repetition of the disgraceful scenes of the past two days, but they are deter- mined to continue the work, and, aiter the rest of Saturday and Sunday, will commence the attack again on Monday. But what the mode of action will be has not yet been determined upon. No saloons have yet suc- cumbed, and they seem to feel stronger than ever in their position. The only apparent effect here, ap tothe present time, is the production of a ee license law, ana largely signed petitions are eing sent to the Constitutional Convention, now in session, praying for the introduction of a license article. These petitions are signed b: ers, merchants and almost all other cla zens, and even by some of the men and women engaged in the present crusade, believing a license to be the only way to regulate the trafiic in liquors in large cities. THE LOUISIANA BONDS. An Injunction Refased in the Suit of the English Brokers to Retard the Execu- tion of the Funding Bill. NEW ORLEANS, March 21, 1874, The suits brought in the United States Circuit Court, before Judge W. B. Wood, by J. L, Macaulay, of New York, and the Stern Brothers, of England, holders of Louisiana bonds, against Auditor Clin- ton and other State oficers to compel tne collec- tion of State taxes to pay interest on the face of their bonds and to enjoin the enforcement of the Funding bill, was decided to-day. soe Wood, in an elaborate written opinion, eld :- Firet—That no mandatory tninnection could sue to compel a State officer todo an affirmative act until a final decree that an Injunction to compel the levy of taxes was & mandatory injunction?

Extensive Conflagration in Massa- chusetts State Prison. Workshops and Property Valued at $590,000 Destroyed. Boston, Mass., March 21, 1874 A most destructive conflagration occurred at the State Prison in Charlestown, this afternoon, Involving a loss of scarcely less than $500,000, It Was about a quarter to one o’ciock that the om- cials of the institution were startled at seeing a dense volume of smoke pouring out of the win- dows of oné of the workshops at the lower end of the prison yard. The convicts at the time were locked in their cells, it being the usual dinner hour, ard the officers and turnkeys were not cailed upon to hold tn subjection nearly 700 men, but were able to assist the instructors employed by the various contractors in removing the moveable goods as fast as possiole. There was a stiff southwest breeze blowing, which Janned tne flames, and in a very few moments after the fire was first discovered the Whole section of the building at the lower end of the yard was all ablaze. In the lower and upper stories there was a large amount oi inflammable material, which served to feea the flames, render- ing the task of the Fire Department of the Bunker | Hill wards, who were early on the spot, hopeless 1m that quarter, CAUSE OF THE FIRE. The fire broke out in the bronze shopof the Tucker Company, and was caused by the placing of two baskets Over @ bronzing oven todry. Tho | baskets were placed there just before the pris- oners were marched in to dinner, and the heat Was so intense as to set them on fire, Finding their efforts of no avail on the lower sec- tion of the workshops the firemen turned their | attention to the long building which | Stretches up the yard toward the prison, and at | two o’ciock they had the fire under control. Dur- | ing the excitement the convicts remained com- | paratively quiet in their cells, although at times they 8:outed and made other outcries. The fire Was finally arrested tn its progress through ihe | north wing of the workshops, At & polat where | the building was some five feet higher thun the portion destroyed about 3001eet of the snops was totaliy ourned, togetuer with the consents, THE OUTER WALLS FELL outward into Prison Point Bay, toward Canal | street, but at last accounts the river waiis were | stunding, ‘ihe joundry, together with the pat- | terns, escaped unharmed, ‘The prison repair shop, shoe shop, tao 8’ shop, laundry and bathroom were ail ip the lower story oi the west wing of tne workshops aud were destroyed, ‘he workshops 0) the prison have been burned twice before, ouce | about Uiteen years ago. The Tucker Company em- ployed 225 convicts, Kenny & Co. between fity and Sixty and Averell & Hunting forty. THE LOS3 falls the heaviest upon the Tucker Company, who haa in process of manuiacture chandeliers and | bronze gods to the amount of $85,000, The com- | pany had also about $100,009 worth of f00.8 stored in the packing room, over the spring ved room, | and their machinery was valued at $125,000, most | of wuich will be @ total loss, ‘Their spring bed shop, with its contents, is whollv destroyed. Henney & Co, occupied a portion of the second | floor of the lower building lor the manutacture of | baskets and barrels. Thetr loss is $1,000. The | brush shop (Messrs, Averell & Hunting) was saved | in a damaged condition. A large amount of tueir | | Manufactured goods were also saved. The fire caused an intense excitement through- | Out the vicinity and also in Boston, and thousands flocked to the scene. ‘hick volumes of smoke arose from the burning buildings and were waited over the city, indicating that an exte:sive conflagra- tion was in progress. It was tortunate that the fire broke out while the convicts were sale under lock and key, for if the men had been in the shops | it would have been almost an impossibility to have | prevented the escape of a large number, Whiie the flremen were at work in the State Prison yard another alarm was sounded, and tt was {ound that sparks trom the burning work- | shops had set fire to the root oi a dwelling house | at the corner of High and Salem strects, nearly a mile distant. A portion of the department was | despatched to the place and extinguished tue fire. | The roofs of several buildings on Charlestown | Neck took fire and astrong bucket brigade was | Bosred along the roois upon which the sparks were iven, STREET CLEANING INVESTIGATION, sien ia eS The Legislative Committee’s Last Session of Inquiry—Views of Thomas C.

Morning the ventilation must be very thorough to remove the smell which tt has leit; if the water that was thrown on the late fre in this hotel (Fifth Avenue) had been salt instead of fres! every particle of piaster must have been remove: rei the building could have been again habit- abie, Mr. Schultz dissented from Mr. Fastman’s views about the pipes lasting ouly 4 year, and did not think common experience would bear out his ideas in reierence to salt water. Mr. Eastman, iu response, said he was positive in regard to the matter, as experiments lad proven that his views were correct. Mr. Schultz would then, if the salt water project were not {easibie, buy @ large number of street cleaning machines, sweep the downtown streets at night and the uptown streets iuring the day, He did not believe in the contract system, but thought that the Police Departinent haa all the elements a! its command to properly do the Work; yet it cannot be Goue while it is a political machine 4nd politica’ bummers are put in positions of trust. He also thought that a right Kind of commission, | should it be uppointed by Goveruor Dix, could do the work properly. Mr. Eastman said it was the desire of the mittee 10 Leip the peuple of New York out of ' difficulty in this respect, but so far as ne was rned he knew but iitue more than when the investigation was commenced, They must make a report, and in doing so they would endeavor to reugiously periorm their duty, but the absence of them 1b a gieat quandary. ‘This ends tue invest: zation, AMUSEMENTS. “Lohengrin” —The Coming Operatic Event—The Representative Work of the Music of the Future—The Legend of the Holy Grail. The most interesting feature of the present operutic season will be the production of Richard Wagner’s opera, “Lohengrin,” at the Academy of Music to-morrow evening. Although it has been given frequently at the Stadt Theatre in German, yet the grandeur of the arrangements for the forthcomimg 1epresentation makes it an entire novelty. Itis the best exemplar we can have of the much discussed and much abused “music 0! the fature.”” While postponing to the proper time a critical analysis of the muste we piace belore our | readers the story of the opera:— In the eaily part of the tenth century King Henry L oi Germany, having occasion io levy an army, Visits is principality of brabant to obtain recruits.

Just then Elsa is seen ata balcony. Frederick retires and Ortrud, in deep dissimalation, asks pardon tor herseli aud her husband, Wuice Elsa treeiy grants, though the King has issued a mandate of banish- ment against the Count. ‘The preparations for islsa’s Murriage with Lohengrin now moved for- ward, but at the door of the church Ortrud impedes the way of Elsa, while Fredeiick boidly charges the unknowu knight with sorcery. These charges are not regarded by the King, who orders the ex- uision Of the wicked pair, though not beiore | frederick has planted tne suggestion in Eisa’s mind to ascertain Lolengrin’s Dame.

Frederick, who 1s | listening at the door, now enters the room with four armed men for the purpose of assassinating | i} | Thomas C. Acton said that it mado little dimer- { ence who did the work so long as it was done. He | would clean the streets at night and use all the | machinery attainable, and he would buy dirt from | every man and woman that brought it to nim at | the dumps or elsewhere; there is a market for | bones and rags and there showid be a market ior | dirt; where there are many tenement houses hardly any number of policemen can prevent the people from throwing garb- age or dirt in the streets, as they even go to the roofs of the houses and throw it off. He, therefore, would make {t an inducement for such to save their dirt and sell it. Tue trouble of | | all contracts was circumlocution, or the plan of “How not to do it,” and they invariably benefit the contractor. The streets can be cleaned and kept so for $750,000 per annum, and a profit of $100,000 made by the contract. If contracts are made the terms should be of the most binding nature, and the parties entering into the agree- | ment should be held to @ strict responsibility, In | the matter of removing the snow, there are times when such quantities have falien it is impossiwle to get rid of it; but durmg the past winter all the snow could have beeu removed witho any dificulty. If the work is done by the Polic Department he would hold the Superintendent re- gponsible as the head, and every captain sould see that the streets o1 his precinct were kept clean. If such officers neglected their work he | would break them. ‘Tne police should have the | whole machinery at their own disposal, and should | not be troubled with outsiders, The deparcinent | has the material at its disposal, and they should be allowed to use it without intericrence, The dis- abled men of the Police Department could be made foremen of sweepers, and were well adapted for such business, If the Board of Health obtained | the work of cleaning the streets, they would still be obliged to have the aid of tue police. In answer to & question by Mi. Eastman, Mr, Acton hardly knew how he would compel the polls to do the work, but they bad tue ability to jo It; there Was no necessity to wo out of the de- partment. Mr. EASTMAN—What do you think of making a separate commission? ir. ACTON—It would only make more places— something you want to avoid. Mr. EastTMAN—Well, there 1s only three ways out of this difficulty; these are to leave the work where it 1s, put it in charge of the Boara o{ Health, or make a separate commission. If the work is contracted for it isn’t practicable to dispose of | the dirt as Mr. Acton suggests, Mr. AcroN, in conclusion, said there would be no diMculty in the matter of properly cleaning the streets if there was a right head and every man in the Police Department made to do his work, and | severe punishment meted out to those who neglect it. He thought the city should own Riker’s | Island and the Two Brothers in the East River, | where all kinds of stuf! can be dumped. The | longer the work is left in the condition that tt now | is the worse will matters become, until they are intolerabie, JACKSON S. SCHULTZ said that the whole difficulty | now experienced in the matier of keeping the streets clean arises from the political character of | the police, and so long 4s 118 management is iilu- enced by partisan motives, and nen are appointed | to positions without possessing any qualitications, . to discbarge the duties incident to them, so long | will the trouble continue; and it will not be reme- died untii men of honesty and courage, free from | the taint of political corruption, take the piace of the present incumbents at tie head of the Depart- ment, It 1s certain that the streets paved with | cobble stones cannot be kept clean, and the Legis- | lature would do @ Wise thing if an act were passed | to pave all the streets south of Fourteenth street | with Beigian pavement, To keep the streets ai- ways clean, as clean as they are in the springtime after three days’ hard rain—he would, in the absence | 01 & proper supply Of Croton, have pipes of sixteen | inches diameter, capable 01 sustaining 200 pounds | vo the square inch, running into tue North and wast | rivers, and engines centrally located to force the water through them, and thus the streets could be Washed every bight. Large traps could be made ateach outlet to collect the sediment, and boats would remove this every day without inconven- ience to business along the docks in the slightest degree. This plan is feasible and can be done within a year. In addition to washing the streets this water can be used to put ott fires, and thus | the expense of large reservoirs in Wescchester | ory, may be saved. The whole paraphernalia | Would not cost more than $6,000,000 or $6,000,000. Mr. Kastman—bkngineers know ot no kind of pipes that, put to such a use as you name, would | hot rast ouvin@ year. And again, you let a pail | his wile, and is about entering the boat drawn | fain patient is not obliged to continue taking it tor | & Grafulia last evening by the Seventh Regiment Lohengrin, but tnstead of this the unknown Knigat slays his assailant and then sorrow- july promises Elsa to reveal bimsell, ‘the King by ths time has made the preparations tor the march o! his army and only waits the coming of Lohengrin.

His revelation is speedily made; | he is Lohengrin, @ knight of the Holy Grail, an so long as his name remains unkuown he 18 superhuman in his powers lor good; but once revealed, he loses all. Thus, having reveaied | himself, he takes an affecting parting from by the swan, which has returnedior him, when the malignant triumph of the wicked Ortrud can- not be restrained, and she gloats upon Elsa's | downfall with bitter glee, Hearing this, Lonengrin Jails on his knees and prays. dove descends over the boat, the swan sinks be- neath the waters, and in its place arises the | young Duke, who has been under the enchantment ot Ortrad., As the scene closes Elsa falls senscless tn the arms of her restored brother, wntle Loven grin is seen on the water beiug drawn away by the | dove, The work is to be produced under the direction of Siguor Muzio, with augmented chorus and or- chestra and with the foliowing cast:—kisa, Mme.

All the jient points of her impersonation of the role were as effective a3 ever, and in the church scene particularly in voice and acting she rose to | w degree of greatness that thrilled her auditors | and brought forth a periect tornado of appiause. Miss Heiss made a very charming Siebel, Paluger a commendable Fanst and Lehmann an exceilent Valentine. The Mephisto o! Herrmanns has long | since received the seal of approval irom tae New York public, and was as fuli of diablerie and pic- turesqueness a8 ever lastevening, The chorus and orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Cariberg, were a vast improvement on the usual dilapidates condition in which both important elements of the opera are found at the Stadt Theatre. But two more performances remain beiore Mme. Lucca bids adieu to her German friends in the Bowery, “Faust” will be given on Monday and “Der Frel- schutz’’? on Wednesda; Musical and Dramatic Notes.

Torriani, Capoul and Wieniawski appear to-night in concert at the Grand Opera House. ‘La Vie Parisienne” will be sung at the Lyceum ‘neatre on Monday evening by the Aimée troupe. Acomplimentary concert was given to Mr. C. Band, The fall and winter season at the Grand Opera House closed last evening. The end was precipi- tated somewhat by the sudden withdrawal ot Mr. Fox from the company, and the defection of sev- eral other parties who preferred to follow Mr. Fox's fortunes in his new venture at the Broad- way. The Opera House has been open since August | 20, and so iar the season has lasted about thirty- one weeks, A spring season will be commenced on Easter Monday, April 6, with a series of star attractions, beginning with Mr. and Mrs. Florence inthe great Irish drama or “Eileen Oge,” which will be put in active preparation for very elaborate | production during the next two weeks. ‘The scheme of matinées for charitable purposes is at last perfected, and the kindly pertormances wiil occur on Thursday afternoon, at Booth’s Thea- tre, Niblo’s Garden and the Lyceum Theatre. At all of these piaces fine programmes are prepared, At Booth’s Mrs. Booth and Dion Boucicault will be the principal performers, the former playing Pauline, in the “Lady of Lyons,” and the latter personating Kerry.

A Prominent Merchant Stopped, Shot and Robbed. The Coachman Also Relieved of His “Valuables.” CINCINNATI, March 21, 1974, Your reporter to-day has obtained facts confir- matory of the rumor that reached the city late last night that Mr. N. B. Bepler, of the prominent frm European steam- ship agents, having offices on the northwest cor- ner of Third and Main streets, had been attacked and probably fatally shot by highway robbers while on his way home from the city. Mr. Gates, who lives at Sedamaville, just west of the city, went down to the L, 0, and L, Railroad depot in the evening of yesterday, to take the ten minutes alter six o'clock train home, and there met Mr. Bepler, who was also going out to bas residence on the Delhi pike, two miles north ol Sedamsvilie. They were together until the sta- tion was reached, tweaty minutes later, where Mr. Bepler was met by bis hired man with his pri- vate carriage. Mr. Bepier, having an hour to Spare, visited his brother-in-law, Mr. Brehmer, in the village, and at about half-past seven o'clock entered his carriage with the driver, to be driven home, ATTACK OF THE MIGHWAYMEN, When they reached a point about a mile from Sedamsviile two men jumped from the roadside and demanded a halt. The driver, too frightened by this sudden onsiaug: to make a desperate drive for liberty, at once checked up, and when one of the men—both of whom were disguised— caught the horse by the bridle-rein, while the other, pointing his pistol! at the driver's head, ordered him to give over all valuables he had about | him, A sliver watch comprised the amount of | his wealth.

Here he notitied the officers, and for the first time felt acy pain or thought of auy serious wound, He | suddenly became exhausted, and by the aid of | friends reached his brothe: w’s residence. Dr. | Neimer was called in, and making an examination of Mr. Bepler’s injuries, ound a gunsuot wound in his leit side, just above the lowerrib. The cloth. ing worn by the wounded man was perforated by SIX Shots, two in the sleeve of his coat and four through the body wnd vest; but one bali, how- ever, took erect. Dr, Neimer succeeded in extracting the bullet, but he couid give no assur- ance that his patient would live, as ine course of the ball was in the region of the heart, and barely assed the vital parts, After a time Mr. Bepler came easier, and, having secured some rest, | eviLced more Javorable symptoms.
