The Rolls Thinning Out.

The retirement of Major-General
Alexander McD. McCook, United States
Army, leaves the ’army without a rep-
resentative of the famous fighting Mc-
Cook family upon its rolls. In the vol-
unteer service General Mc Cook rose
to the rank of major-general and at the
close of the war re-entered the regular
establishment as a lieutenant colonel,
being promoted through the various
grades, reaching the rank of major-gen-
eral last fall. General McCook’s fath-
er and eight of his brothers served in
the Union Army, four of them attaining
the rank of a general ofiicer. In a few
years the army will have lost its last
distinguished survivor of the great con-
flict to preserve the Union.

“Sound Money.”

How much or how little may be sig—
nified by this phrase everybody knows.
To the silver men silver at sixteen to
one is the soundest of all sound money.
Every man who favors any extrava—
gance in finance is always convinced
that the money he proposes or favors is
“sound money. ”

Consequently when Mr. Cleveland
publicly declared he was in favor of
“sound money,” we know he did not
mean silver, but it was not very clear
what he did mean; and when Mr.‘ Sec-
retary Morton followed with a defini—
tion of the phrase there was an opinion
that he might be giving the President’s
opinio

But Mr. Morton’s definition of sound
money was a definition that fitted gold,
rlhercfore Mr. Cleve-
land repudiates Morton’s definition, as

and gold only.

the time is not ripe for him to permit
himself to be classified as a gold bug.

Mr. Harrison’s coming forward as a
believer in “free coinage of silver upon
a basis ’6') be agreed upon” would make
it particularly unsatisfactiry to the
President to be'classified just now as
for gold only.

Arrest of C. P. Huntington.

 

 

This event, which occurred Monday
night in New York, furnishes fresh illus-
tration, if any were needed, of the
vices and defects of the interstate com-
merce law under which the arrest was
procured. Mr. Huntington, it appears,
issued a pass to one—Frank M. Stone,
o San Francisco, a lawyer of more or
le‘se repute. It is the custom of the
Son from Pacific Railroad officials in
such cases to stamp passes Of the kind
with the words “not good outside the
State.”

Mr. Huntington’s subordinates neglect-

On this occasion, however,

ed to make the qualifying indorsement,
and thus gave Mr. Huntington’s benea
ficiary an/ opportunity to requite that
gentleman’s kindness with treachery—-
an opportunity which Mr. Frank M.
Stone wasted no time or scruple in im-
proving. He promptly relinquished the
personal advantages involved, and, find-
ing a grand jury willing, not to say
anxiOus, to aid him in his virtuous and
high-minded enterprise, succeeded in
having Mr. Huntington indicted for a
violation of the interstate commerce
law. The arrest was made in New York
on Monday, and the culprit is held
awaiting the issue of an order of re—
moval to California.

It is too late, of course, to protest
againstalaw which makes such out-
Neither is it worth

While to dilate on the notorious con-

spiracy through which a coterie of dis-

credited lobbyists and mercenaries
hive waged relentless war against Mr.

Huntington for years past. The fact

remains that this man whoee‘thrift and

energy and brains have built up an in-
dustry by_ which nearly a milliOn' of
people subsist in comfort and honorable
independence, is now under arrest, and
threatened with removal to California
, for trial. because of thébtupidity of an
improwdent law, and the malice of men}

rages possible.

 

 

who interpret and invite'it.

Mr. Huntington is a ,native of Har-
winton, in this state, 11nd his noble and

munificent benefactious there as else-
Where, and to the Indian school at
Hampton, Va., particularly, are known
and praised throughout the land. .

The spectacle is admirably calculated
to fill decent and intelligent people with
disgust.

Last Evenlng’s Flre.
Shortly after eight o’clock last even-

ing, what might have proved a disas-

trous fire was discovered at the resi-
dence of Wendell ,G. Ashton, on Lynes
Place. The family was awayat the
time-and before leaving the house one
of the ladies left a lighted lamp' on the
dinning room mantle for young Clar—
ence Ashton, who was expected to re-
turn shortly. Luckily he did return in
a few minutes, but only to find the
portiere between the dinning and sit-
ting rooms ablaze.

He at once ran out of the house and
gave the alarm, and some one pulled
box 28 at the corner of West avenue
and Berkeley street, to which the fire
department responded. In the mean-
time S. B. Wilson reached the house
and breakinm in the rear door extin-
guiéhed the flames with the aid of sev-
eral neighbors and a few pails of water.
The flames had succeeded, however, in

badly scorching the partition between.

the two rooms, entirely consuming the
portieres, damaging a chair or two and
ruining the carpet.

The house belongs to Mrs. Emily
Lynes and is insured. The loss to
Mr. Ashton will not exceed
350. Miss Ida Ashton was returning
home sometime after the fire had been
extinguished when she was informed
that her house was on fire. She imme-
diately swooned and was carried into
the residence of E. N. Sloane on Frank-
lin avenue, where restoratives were ad-
ministered.

Successful Entertainment.

No more pleasing and successful en-
tertainment has been furnished the
N orwalk public than the one given last
evening in behalf of that most deserv-
ing cause, the Y. M. C. A.

The carefully arranged programme
was faithfully carried out and with
such acceptance as to win the enthusi-
astic encores of the audience for each
and every number. The little Operetta
at the close, was a gem of its kind, in
which the superb blending of the bar—
monious voices of Mrs. Newkirk, her
sister Miss Sherwood and the Messrs.
Andrews, Treadwell and Nash, were
made captivatingly apparent.

The playing of the Misses Nash and
Betts, the recitations of Miss White of
Wilton, and Mr. Jackson of the Y. M.
C. A., with the marvelous time keeping
clapper playing of Miss Naomi Smith,
were all unalloyed successes and de-
lights. It is thought the always needy
treasury of the Y. M. C. A. will net the
sum of $150 from the delightful enter—
tainment.

‘Refused to Leave.

Henry Carr was arrested shortly be-
fore midnight last night, for intoxica-
tion and breach of the peace. It seems
that his uncle, Daniel McCann, the
watchman at the Meeker foundry on
Smith street, was holding a mixed ale

 

’party to which he had invited his

nephew and another friend. About
midnight McCann thought it was time
to close the festivities, so he told Carr
and the other man to leave. As there
was a little more ale left in the “grow-
ler” they objected to going and a rough
and tumble fight ensued in which Mc-
Cann suffered the loss of part of one of
his ears. This morning Carr was brought
before Justice Rose and fined 81 and
costs which was paid by his employer.

norT’s OPERA HOUSE.

Another large audience greeted
Rice’s Stock company at Hoyt’s Opera
House last night. The play presented
was “Back Among the Old Folks,” and
the acting was unusually good. The
musical numbers were greatly enjoyed
and is a pleasing feature of the enter:-
tainment. To-night the company will
present another new piece and no doubt
the house will continue to be crowded.

NORWALK OPERA HOUSE.

The Chattanooga Times says: “Hi.
Henry’s minstrels are to be congratu-
lated. The entertainment is of the re-
fin'ed minstrel order and is first—class in
its way. An excellent entertainment,
consisting Of excellent music, vocal and
instrumental, minstrel specialties and
athletic novelties. Mr. Henry has ex-
pended a vast sum of money in staging
his medley of palatable miscellany and
is deserving of most liberal patronage.”
Hi. Henry’s celebrated minstrels Will
be seen at the Norwalk Opera House
next Saturday evening.

, BUOHANAN’S PORLORN- HOPE.

His Attorneys Will Apply to the Sfiprexno
Court For a. Writ of Habeas Corpus.
SING SING, April 25.—Dr. Buchanan

wrote a long letter to Governor Morton
thanking him for listening to the appeal
of» his wife and for graiiting him a respite
of 0110 Week.
man also referred to what he considered
the doubtful portion of the testimony pr0<
duced against him on his trial and of the
injustice of executing him without giving
him another chance for his life.

Buchanan’s young wife - came direct
from Albany to Sing Sing and spent con-
siderable time with her husband in the
prison. As she sat in front of his cell she
related to him how Governor Morton had
received her, and that he had told her that
be granted the respite of one week so
that her husband could have an opportuni-
ty to prepare for death.

Buchanan told his wife he did not expect
to be executed next {week and he still
had strong hope of escaping the death pen-
alty. .

Mrs. Buchanan, who was much affected

by the interview, told him on taking her

leave not to have too strong a. hope, and
that she thought it best for him to prepare
to meet the Worst.

Buchanan’ 5 final words to his Wife were
to keep up courage, to see his lawyers
today and urge them to take advantage of
whatever chance there might now be to
prevent the execution of the death sentence.

Warden Sage said today that he would
not execute Buchanan until he had con-
ferred with the attorney general as to
whether it Would be legal to carry out the
law next ‘Wednesday, which will be the
expiration of the respite granted by the
governor.

Warden Sage is a lawyér. He said he
did not think it would be necessary to
have Buchanan resentenced ’and another
day appointed for the execution, but said
he would be governed entirely by the de-
cision of the attorney general. He will go
to Albany to confer with that official.

Meantime Buchanan’s lawyers are pre-
paring papers to make an application to
the supreme court for a. writ of habeas
corpus, and should that court refuse to
grant it another application will be made
to the United States court.

The New York Medical society is co-op-
crating With Buchanan’s lawyers to try
have the execution of the death sen-
tence put off for an indefinite time so
that the question can be reviewed whether
Buchanan’s second wife, whom he was
convicted of poisoning, died of natural
causes.

ANOTHER “RAPID" QUEENSBERRY.

He Is the Marquis' Son and lVants to Marry
a Variety Actress.

BAKERSFIELD, Cal, April fail—Lord
Sholto C. Douglas, son of the Marquis of
Quoensberry, who was arrested here
charged with insanity, has been spending
much of his time during the past week
among the lower half of the world of Bak-
ersfield.

Monday night 110 gambled in one of the

local variety theaters and lost about $450. _

He is infatuated with a. young song and
dance artist named Addls, and several
times during the past Week- has prOposed
marriage. He spent about $50 on wine
and gave here. marquise ring as a present.

Yesterday morning he applied for 11 mar-
riage license and took it to her. She told
him she would have to wait until she be-
came .of age, which will be in a few
months.

Miss Addis declares she does not love
him, and, What is more, does not con-
sider a. marriage into his family at all an
honor to her. If she marries him at all,
it will be because she might escape the life
she is now living.

Miss Addis’ true name is supposed to be
Mooney. She recently came here from a
convent in San Francisco and was placed
in the dive business by her mother, who
recently ran the Brewery theater. She is
a. pretty Irish girl, apparently 15 years old,
about 5 feet high. _

Douglas was just going to bed when or-
rested. He said it was a. “most remark-
able proceeding to arrest a. man for lunacy
on the complaint of one man. ” He is at

'present confined in the insane ward of the

jail and must be examined before released-

He Was greatly excited, but refused to
talk of his experience to reporters. The
same friends who stopped his romance by
causing his arrest also stopped the pay-
ment of over 9300 Worth of checks, so his
losses are really only about 3100.
