Good News for the Farmer. -
The October report of the statisti-
cian, issued by the Department of Ag—
riculture, shows that during July there
were 6,606 tons of hay imported by
Great Britain from the United States
against 723 tons last year. The imports
for August reached 11,362 tons this
year against 160 tons last year, and for
eight months this year the total is 54-
319 tons compared with 7,375 tons a year
ago. The short hay crop abroad is the
direct cause of this large export de-
mand for American hay, as in previous
years the hay crop appears to have been
of little international importance; So
here is a new field of profit for the far-
mer not likely to be affected by tarifi’
revision.
Reminiscent.
An exchange in noting the death and
burial of one of this country’s oldest
and most fearless woman reform-
ers, remarks that there are thous-
ands of men yet living who remember
when Lucy Storm was regarded With
hatred or contempt by the majority.
She voiced something that had been
growing in human thought for centur-
ies, of that intellectual emancipation,
grounded in the nature of humanity,
of which she and her associates were
apostles.
By many of those who did not hate
or despise, she was pitied as a crank.
No doubt much of the hostility of that
day toward the Woman’s Rights move-
ment came of the fact that those who
advocated it usually advocated aboli-
tion of slavery too, and here they ran
against vast commercial interests and
- the bitterness of political party. The
heroic surgery of the sword cut away
the obloquy from the epithet Abolition-
ist and cut through more shackles than
those of the negro slaves.
The advocates of Woman’s Rights
were, justly enough, classed with Abo-
litionists, and in vindicating the latter,
the sword commanded respect for the
former. They were classed also with
free lovers, and from this odium their
own lives have shaken them free.
Women like Lucy Stone have passed
from being despised, to being honored.
There is no more striking illustration
of the vast development of the thought
of mankind in our day, than the amaz-
ing contrast between what is now said
of her and the style of speakingof her
forty years ago. She was one among
the striking figures of the age. Great,
not so much in intellectual genius as in
a certain keenness of moral vision, and
the unblenching courage ‘to follow
where it led. Lucy Stone lived to see
women accepted as clerks, cashiers,
telegraph operators, typewriters,. edi-
tors, press writers, in fact, hailed as
, equals of men in all vocations suited to
their physical powers, and she lived to
see legislation modified in many states
in the interest of wives and widows.
Her noble, kindly life was a success.
Defective Railroad Management.
August, September and October of
this year will be remembered as three
months of railroad horrors. Begin-
ning with the Lake Shore accident on
August 4, and ending with the smash-
up yesterday (Wednesday) evening, to
the Pennsylvania limited express, be—
tween Philadelphia and New York,
there have been eleven great accidents
resulting in the loss of an even hun-
dred lives and witha wounded list of
over three hundred persons. And the
earlier sections of the year were almost
as bad. January had 35 persons killed
and 86 wounded; February, 11 killed
and 38 wounded; April, 15 killed and 9
wounded; May showed up with 20
killed and 25 wounded; June had 10
killed and 26 wounded, and July, 13
killed and 68 wounded. The accident
list for the year, up to date, shows a
total of 204 dead and over 550 wounded,
a record which is' as disgraceful to rail:
road management as it is full of sorrow
and suffering for those who found their
sad fate in its results. The railroads
most interested in this alarming list Of
disasters are nineteen in. number, the
Big Four having three accidents, with .
50 dead and 63 wounded; the West
Shore two accidents, in which 8 lives
were lost and 37 wounded; the Wabash
two accidents, with 14 killed and 117
wounded, the Grand Trunk two acci-
dents, killing 30 people and wounding
41, and to-day’s record on the Pennsyl-‘
vania'of three killed and some dozen
more or less seriously wounded, and
the marvel being that. scores were not
killed and a hundred wounded, in this
latest and seemingly most fortunate of
accidents.
Surely there must be something ter-
ribly wrong in the way in which some
railroads are handled. The exigencies
of heavy travel t9 and from Chicago
are very great, but not sufficient to ex-
cuse the continuous slaughter of pas.
sengers. Have we not much to learn
from railroad management in England,
where, in 1892, only four persons were
killed in the whole passenger traffic of-
. theyear.

The Hawley Trial. ,
The oft-postponed trial of Florence
Hawley, for murder, was started Wed-
nesday in the Superior court, criminal
side, before Judge Hammersley and
will be prosecuted to a conclusion.
The accused is the wife of John Haw-
ley, now serving a life sentence in state
prison for the same crime.
The murder, it will be remembered,
was a brutal one. The victim was Mary
L. Munson, a paramour of John Haw-
ley. On the 2lst of December, 1891,
at Huntington she was brutally butch-
ered. Her body was horribly mutilated.
The murderer had 'shot the victim
twice and then struck her over the head
with an axe.
Circumstances pointed toward John
Hawley, a colored lover of Mrs. Mun-
son. He was arrested, tried and sen-
tenced to state prison for life. The
theory advanced by the state was that
John Hawley, goaded by the jealousy
of his wife, who was aware Of his inti-
macy with Mrs. Manson, put her out of
the way.
In the present case it is alleged that
Florence Hawley was present when the
murder was committed, and assisted
her husband in the commission of the
murder.
The jury as selected stands A. H.
Pierce, New Fairfield; Anthony H.
McCarthy,,Bridgeport; Elmer W. Fair-
child, Newtown; H. R. Elwood, jr.,

amined in all.

AS A FRENCHMAN SEES IT.
The Lackgof Artistical Effect in Calcutta.
Architecture.
The English of the eighteenth and
nineteenth centuries do not know much
about art; they do not care much for
it at home, and still less do they
trouble their heads on the subject in a.
country where their stay is only tem-
porary, and where they remain but
long enough to make their fortunes.
Sothey did not draw much on their
imaginations in the designs for their
public buildings—pseudo-Greek for
secular buildings, pseudo-Gothic .for
ccclesiastic ones. ' Anglo-Greek and In-
dO-Gothic styles have a quaint effect
beneath a tropical sky; but the archi-
tect has at least any amount of space
at his command, and though vastness
of proportion is not necessarily an ele-
ment of beauty, there is something
striking about it. On the Cliowringhee
road, opposite the wide Maiden esplan-
ade, sixty palaces alone occupy a front-
age a mile long.‘ Commonplace, cold-
looking and monotonous, these great
buildings have nothing attractive
about them but their size; they are the
one tropical emanation of-an art which
may be characterized as doubly spuri-
ous, in that it was alien to the 'soil
from which it was borrowed. Travel-
ers who have seen St. Petersburg are '
reminded of it at Calcutta, which is
not unlike the new Vienna which has
sprung up in the last ten years, or per-
haps Buda—Pesth, but without its
glorious background of mountains.
Nowhere is the passionless strength of
the British genius better illustrated
than at Calcutta. “Let there be pal-
aces,” said the Wellesleys, and there
were palaces. They forgot to add,
“Let there be artists;” and had they
said it, the powers even of a. governor-
general are limited in all that relates
to the spirit. -—Harper’s Weekly.

OPERA HOUSE.
“The World Against Her” will be
presented at the Opera House to-night.
The horse editor of one of our ex-
changes wrote as follows of the play:
Agnes Wallace Villa held forth at the
Opera House last night to a good crowd
of spectators. When the jockeys rode
forth on their theatrical horses, they
were all fresh and not a balky animal
could be seen in the whole lot. The
start was made with a flourish, and no
lagging was seen from that to the fin-
ish. “Villa” took the lead, and although
she lost several heats, was the winner
when they all passed under the wire.
When the quarterpost was reached the
interest of the onlookers had begun to
grow. When the giant racer began to
lead the small and graceful favorite, a
thrill of apprehension was felt by all,
and many faces grew sorrowful, but as
the goal grew less and she madea grand
burst of speed, their hopes were re-
vived. As the home stretch was being
neared the enthusiasm was at a fever
heat, and when the villainous jockey
who had attempted to win the race by
foul means was captured and meted
“out the punishment he so richly de-
served a loud cheer of satisfaction was
given by all._ The little favorite came
in first, and all were satisfied, and
.made known their satisfaction by long
and loud applause.

Bond Purchase Amendment To-day.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.—Mr. Jones (rep.
Nev.) delivered in the senate yesterday
the sixth and final portion of the speech
against the silver purchase repeal bill
. which he commenced early last week.
As usual, he had an attentive and inter-
ested audience, and his per-oration was ap-
plauded. ‘
His colleague, Mr. Stewart, resumed the
speeth commenced by him several weeks
ago, but did not conclude it.
Blames the Administration.
Mr. Pugh (dem. Ala.) made a brief
speech against the repeal bill, in which he
stated that the democratic compromise
measure would have had the support of
43 democratic senators if it had not been
for the interference of the president and
his secretary of the treasury. He also
said that he would not filibuster against
the repeal bill as he would not be able to
get the support necessary to do so effect-
ively, but that he would vote against it,
leaving the consequences to God and his
conscience. V
No Estimate of the Speeches.
These Were the only speeches made yes-
terday, but it is impossible to say how
many more are to be made before the final
vote is reached. ‘
The house joint resolution tendering the
Acknowledgements of the government and
people of the United States to each of the
foreign governments that co-operated in

passed.
Sherman’s Bond Amendment.
It is generally believed that Mr. Sher-
man will offer an amendment to-day to
the bill providing for the issue of bonds.
He says that if he does, he will give his
reasons, but if he decides not to offer the
amendment there is no need of his saying
anything. .
Mr. Voorhees said that he did not know
anything about Mr. Sherman’s intentions
regarding an amendment providing for
bond issue, but nevertheless the repeal bill
would be passed as it now stands, and that
is unconditional repeal.
