THE OMAHA DAILY BEE, HOW ENGLAND RULES INDIA. Tho Empirs Ksps in Subjsotion by a Haad- ful of Soldiers, RIVALRY OF PRINCZS TO SECURE SALUTES. Englishmen Attach no Importa Wales' Escapades Che fully Allow Him to Have His Fling. and {s a wealthy English man who is interested in mines in Colorado and other western states, and has just com ploted an extended tour of the country which ho is visiting for the first While stop ping at the Palmer on his way back hown he spoke of Englana’s rule of India apropos of the recent disturvance at Manipur. I spent several years in India in an oflcial capacity,” said Mr. Jennings, “wnd have per- sonally known all the vicoroys Lord Canning. [t was in Manipur that the game of polo was first introduced to Englishmen, and through them has been trausplanted to Amorica, [ was presont when the first gamo was played there for the benefit of the Eni: lish trgops. This was in 1864 or 65, Manipur is an out-of-the-way section of India littie visited by Englishmen, I am not informed as to Just how tho late trouble originated, but 1 placo no faith in the story that thoro was any treachory practiced by the Eaglish at Darbar. Only tose who bave lived in ludia can have an idea of the moral force by which England with a standing army of only about 60,000 mon is enablod to maintain paace over o country nearly as large as the Unitod States and with a populstion five times as great. “And this moral control extends not only over thoso portions of [ndia which aro do- peudencies of England, but over enti roly in- epon dent sovereignties, An Englishmanis dover afraid to go anywhoro te likes th nwholly uuprotected, oven among the least civili zed of the natiVe tribes, the fact that he is an Englishman constituting a sufficiont safoguard. Although there are ouly some- thing like 60,000 men i the standing army, thore are 1,000,000 © o troops, perfoctly “pyal, who could bo armed and brought into she field on very short notice. These Ghoorkahs and ~ Punjabis are splendid Aghters, every bt as good as the Brivish soldior; sud you kuow that is the highost complement au Knghshman can pay. “\With this vast sourca of prostigo behind him the viceroy of India gives tho native po- tentate to understand that the first to pro- voke or engage in quarrel with another po- tentate will bo pumshed by Ingland so that ho is sure of getting thrashed cither by tho princa with whom he goes to war or by the viceroy. As u result, they always think twico before engaging in any distarbance aud peace reigns in the whole of India, “Then there is a system of precodents. It would be hard for any one who is unfamiliar with tho orienta! character to undorstand what a profound hold this sort of thing takes among theso people. For instance, there is a ‘durbar’ or conference, such as took place at Manipur. Kach mabarajah, or rajah or sirdah as the case may be, is saluted as ho comes up_ with his retinue ' by the firing of canon, the number being regulated by the viceroy who determines each rider's saluta- tion on the basis of his good behavior and management of his dominious. The hichest number of guns to which any native prince Is eutitled is twenty-one. Those salutes aro not goverened by the power of & vpotentate or the extent of his dominions. For instauce, thero is one littlo principality in which the succession has one onuniuterruptedly in, one family for 1,200 yeurs without any reévolutions of out- broaks of any kind and the prople are peace- able aud prosperous. This prince gets twenty-one guns while another rajab, who rules over four times as many people and over dominions much richer and more exten- sive, might ouly - receive eighteen. One woman ruler, the mabarajhue of Bopaul, re- ceives tho full sulute of tw ne guns, “Accordingly, there is the livelidst struggle among them, those who recei ineteen guns striving to earn one or two more and those oive the full number regulating their behavior to please the viceroy lest they should loso a gun or two, The viceroy himself re- cotyes a salute of twenty-threo guns and takes rank over the priuce of Wales when the prince visits India, “Phen there is at each of the courts a Brit- Ish resident. His position is similar to that of a consul, but his influence is much greater, He is looked upon as an impartial judge, and matters of dispute among the natives aro re- ferred to him. According to the dispatches it was at Manipur os in Egypt, the fatal first step was forced on from outside, and in oppo- sition to tho judgment of the British resi- eut.

But a cartoon printed in that audacious littlo Australian_journal, the Siduey Bullet most took his breath away.

It is worthy of note, however, thut Messrs. Siemens and Halske, the Gerwan engineers, have dosign- ed and constructed @ system of electri roads in Buda-Pesth, Hunga! which is operated upon the conduit conductor plan. The couduit is formed of concrote, with Iron yokes, quite similar to some of the cable conduits {u this country.

Ivis important that claimants under the Tuain depredations law should understand that all contracts made by them with attor- ueys were cancelled and annulled by that act. Section 9 of the law explicity says that “all contracts heretoforo made for foes and allowances to claimants’ attorneys aro hereby declared void,” and the secretary of the treasury in issuing warrants for judg- ments 15 required to make them payable only to claimauts, their lawful heirs or other representatives specified in tho act, *except 50 much thercof as shall be allowed the claimants’ attorneys by tho court for prose- cuting said claim, whicb muy be paid direct t0 such attorneys,” and the amount of the atlowance which shall be made is specified. “The claim agents and attornoys are making a fight on the law upon the ground that con- gress has mo power to annul private con tracts, ana hold that contracts involving a contingent fee are irrevocable. Claimants who are thus informed should pay no atten- tion to it. Their obviously viso and propor course is to be guided by the provisions of the law, wnich are so plain and explicit that no oue can err as to thewr mean- wg, and to pay no regard to op- inions or representations of men whose interest it is to defeat the intent of the law. The ovident purpose of congress in de- claring contracts with attorueys void was to protect claimants, and even if it bo grantod that there 1s 8 question as to the power of congress to do this, until that question 1s judicialty determined claimants will make a mistako not to take the advantage which the law allows them, and by failure to do so sub- ject themselves to the exactions of the groedy claim agents and attornoys. But it is highly vrovable that the power of con- gress in’ this matter will never be tosted in the courts, si itis hardly to be supposed that the many able law in congress would have allowed so important a feature of the Indian depredations act to cemaiu in it if there was @ reasonablo doubt rogarding the right of congross o so legmslate, "The thing to be understood by claimants under the above act is that contracts made with attorneys for foes and _allowance were rendered void by the act, and that thoy aro at liberty to place their claims in other hands and to refuse in all respects to be bound by sich contracts. L e A Mexican Swell on Horseback. The Mexicaa swell rides on a saddle worth a fortune, says Harper’s Maga- zine. It is loaded with silver trimmings, and hanging over it is an expensive , or Spanish blanket, which adds to the magnificence of the whole, His queor shaped stirrups are redolent of the old mings His bridle s in like manner adorned with metal in the shupe of half a dozen big silver plates, and to his bit is attached a pair of knotted red cord reins,which he holas up high and loose, He is dressed in a black velvet jacket, fringed and em- broidered with™ silver, and a huge and expensive hat, perchcd on his head, is tilted over one ear, His logs are en- cnsed in dark tight-ftting breeches,with silver trimming down the side seams, but cut 50 as, in summer weather, to unbut- ton from the knee down and flap aside. His spurs are silver, big and heavy and costly, and fitted to buckle round his high cut heel. Undor his left log is fastened a brond-bladed and beautiful curved sword, with a hilt worthy a prince of the blood. The seat of this exquisite is the per- foct pattern ofa clothes pin. Leaning against the cantlo, he stretches his legs forward and outward, with neels de- pressed in a fashion which reminds one of Sydney Smith’s saying that he did not object to a clergyman riding if only he rode very badly and turned uot his toes.
