Ho has been upon the naval committee, a committee in which I had especial Interest, whore I could see and watoh his oourse from day to day.

and I am saying nothing more than what is jnstly his due. and what will be said by every man who is familiar with him in congress, that Brooklyn never in its history not within my memory at least of its history has had a representative in congress who at his first sesBion has wielded the influence and accomplished the results that have beon accomplished by William 0. Wallace. Applause and a cry of "Bravo I I am anxious that he should be returned, because I am anxious that Brooklyn shall take its proper Btand and position in con gresB, as it will do if you send him back for a necoud term. Applause.

Everybody at all familiar with the house of representatives understands how utterly impossible it is tor a young man, and a young member, to takn a prominent position in congress during the first session. well remember hearing my friend, II nry J. ltaym md, the editor of tho Now lork imes, say during his first session of congress that it was utterly impossible for a man, a member, during his first term to achievo any success in congress. Even he, with all his reputation as an experienced legislator at Albany, repeatedly the speaker of the house of the assembly, lieutenant governor and editor of one of the most powerful organs in the United StateB, found that it was impossible under the rules and regulations of the house for a new member to take a promi nnaitinn in t.hft enntrnl of affairs.

Tho exhibit will not only include whole batteries, but their parts aud new appliances and improvement as well as machinery used in thoir manufacture. Tho exhibit will not bo conflnod to the mombers of tho dopartment alone, as thousands of oirculars have been sent out to outside parties, aud nearly every electrical company iu the city has responded with a big list of articles for display. The exhibit bids fair to be a big thing and may last several days. Dr.

8chuylor 8. Wheeler, Ph.D., was scheduled to leoturo at last evening's meeting, but at a lato hour yesterday telegraphed that he was too ill to leave his home, muoh less appear as a lecturer. President Hamblet scouted around in the afternoon yenterday and finally secured Professor Samuel Sheldon, tho vice president of the department, to talk on "The Magnetic Current" A better substitute could not be obtained, aud Professor Sholdon'a talk, under tho influence of applause, developed into a most valuable informal lecture HIS BROTHERS DtfJECT. Three of mm. Forbe' Sonw Object to tho Fourth Sharing tu Her Entatc.

Over a year ago Mrs. Ann Forbes, of 251 Baltic street, mado a will, by tho provisions of which her three bous, Joseph William II. and Duncan B. Forbes were to bo tho beneficiaries. Her fourth son, Edwin, with whom sho had had somo trouble previously, was disinherited.

A fow days before her death she sent for her attorney in order to have somo changes mado in tho will, and whon tho lawyer was found to be out of tho city his clerk was sent to the houso. When he arrived Mrs. Forbes told him that she had become reconciled to her sou Edwin and that sho wanted his name inserted in thn instrument as an equal beneficiary with tho other brothers. For the purpose of making the desirod change the will wau taken to tho lawyer's office, the alterations perfected and the document taken baok to Mrs. Forbes, before whom it waa read aud attostod.

Four days aftor thia aha died, and whon tho will was oxatnined it was found that the changes had not boon made proporly, and that tho name of Edwin, inatoad of being inserted iu the clause providing for tho distribution of the property, had been put iu minor paragraphs which had uo direct bearing upon tho issue or objoot of the will. This error on the part of the attorney could easily haye been corrected had the three sons agreed, but they decided to abide by the will made in their favor alono, and accordingly their case was put in the hands of a lawyor, and the couteator's interest aro looked aftor by William J. Gaynor. The ease camo up baforo the surrogate yesterday and decision was rosorved. FOU CUIL0KG.1.

The meeting waa called to order by tho president of the association, John J. McDermott, aud the secretary was William C.

Von Glahn. A lesson in the new way of voting was commenced, during which Judges Courtney and Kenna, John A. Qtiititerd and Lawyer John New ontered the hall and the onthuBiasm evoked was unbounded. Men jumped ou tho encheB to cheer Judge Courtnoy, and tho answering eheora from the stroet below resounded for many blocks. Tho judge mado a rattling speech similar to those ho has mado in other wards during tho campaign, aud Judge Kenna followod him in a happy vein that took.

Ha was glad to see that the unterrifled democracy ot tho Socond could not bo kept from their political duty by a littlo rain and urged all present who had not registered to get out of the hall at once and do so. That all had complied with this requirement was patent, for noue loft tho hall.

winans, taa The Ceatral Democratic Amoclation la dorses the Regular Candidates. The delegates to the Central Demooratio asso ciation met at the Art assembly rooms, on Montague street, last evening, and deoidod to go baok to the protecting wing of the organization, from which they seceded aeveral years ago. That the step is permanent is not positive, but it was decided last night that all the regular Dcmocraho nominees are honest, and aro therefore worthy of the support of the Central association. Whether this support continues depends on the honesty of the future nominations of the Democratic party. William P.

Ferffnsnn nresidnrt at the delibera tions, whioh were short and harmonious. Secre tary B. J. Riley recorded. The attendance was not large, xno following was read: Whereas.

The candidate snlected br the reg ular Democratic organization of this county are sucn as meet the highest commendation oi an honest Denioorats. and beliering their candidacy will assuredly assist in securiug Democratic ascendency in tho national and stato legislatures, be it Resolved, That the executive committee rc ommend to the delegates the indorsement of all tho regnlar Democratic nominees. Mr, Ferguson spoke at length ou the resolution. He said, in substance: After the last election wo folt somewhat like Andrew Jackson when the British general asked him to black his boots and when he refused received several cuts with a sword. But now it Boenis as if tho clouds had disappeared (although the weather does not show it) and the silver lining has come to stay.

The present outlook suggests several elements of snccesa. 'Ihe leaders of the DAmni ratin nnrtv'witlin irlv deferred to thewiBhesof thn people in their ohoico of a can aitiaie tor sheriff, aud the delegates were instructed to namn the most popular man. The other candidates retired in his favor. I think tho retiring of Messrs. Kenna, Rutan, Kerri au ano Dounemanu certainly cngnt to oe commended.

Another element enters into the campaign so far as tho national ticket is conoerned. ine fuollinley tariff bill has proven a Doom Which will realllt in thn onpna nf th rGtmlar Democratic tickot, if not in this county it will in other districts. So far as the can didates are concerned, their general character is good. Tho candidae of Mr. Bood is certainly a commendable one.

He ia a man of the people and of solf oulturo and in every way is what we would call a Democrat of the purest type. Ho will prove as good a representative as we have had in Congress. Regarding Mr. Courtney, I havo known him many years. His oareer is ono that commends itBelf to every right thinking person.

He organized the Veteran Firemen's association aud was instrumental iu getting them pensions, and for this is entitled to the entire support of the 2,000 or more firemen in this county. Judge Courtney meets with no opposition, and the local party is doing the right thing 111 recognizing that the people aro entitled to recognition. ThiB iB evident by the candidates that have been presented. ApplauBe. Wr.

E. M. Perkins was tho next sneaker. He eaid: It is necessary that we elect all the Demo cratic candidates to congress. It is also import taut to elect a democratic legislature, as tnere will be a United States senator elected the coming term, and it is necessary to elect a Democrat, which will mako ono Republican less.

We have been cheated out of our representation and havo been allowed uo constitutional convention. The Republicans have always ruled aud our cities have never received Droner lecriulation. I think this should end. With the oity ticket we cannot find any fault. It is not a ring ticket.

I have no doubt Mr Courtney will havo tho biggest majority any Democrat sheriff ever had. Tho resolution was unanimously adopted. Mr. Evans called attention to Mr. Coombs' hard fitrht 111 the Third congressional district, and offered a resolution asking that the attention of tne delegates be specially directed to the campaign made by Mr.

Coomba, and that thoy bo mstructod to co operato with the regular Democratic organization. The resolution was adopted. Mr. Cann's motion that the dolt crates bo in structed to UBe evory effort to elect Judge Court uey was uuunimousiy carrieu. Mr.

Tyndall's motion that the dolegates and officers bo instructed to use every effort to make tho majority of David A. Roodv as larcro as pos sible was aiao carried. Mr. Tyndall claimed there was no question of his election. Mr.

Ferguson called attcntiou to a bad break at the recent meeting of tue Brooklyn young men's Democratio club, in which oue of the speakorB referred to all tho Democratic candidates for congress oxoeptMr.Boody, becaueof personal differences, inasmuch as Mr. Boody had been the cause of a disruption in the association. Mr. Ferguson said the members did not notice the omission, probably because the speaker was a prominent moinbcr, but declared it was the last thing au organization should do to iguoro anybody. Mr.

Lyon said that Mr. Buody would havo an overwhelming majority. He suggested that it would be a good thing for the organization to indorse tho independent candidates for supervisor, Mr. Merrick iu tho Sixth aud Air. Nagle in the Second.

As the association had already indorsed tho entire regular ticket, this could not be done. The meeting was then adjourned, subject to tho call of the chair. THfi E.VULISli LANGUAGE. Lecture by Dr. A.

V. W. Jacliaoa Before tlie UrooUlyn lauiitiite. The study of English authors and tho En glish language soems to havo fallen iu line with every other English orazo. and crowds of peoplo attend the course given at tho Young Men's Christian Association under the auspicoa of the Brooklyn institute.

A crowd numbering nearly five hundred packed into the lecture room at the association buildiug yesterday, every seat being taken, also what little standing room there was left un supplied with chairs. The audience was com posed for the most part of women, including some of the fashionables of Brooklyn, who had braved tho wet and other disagreeables of yester day to hear tho first lecture of Dr. A. V. W.

Jack son, of Columbia college, in the course on "The Origin and Growth of the EugliBh Language." These lectures are not discourses and criticisms on "English as she is spoke" at any period, but are a carefully compiled history of th6 scientific progress of the English language from its nception. The lecturer was introduced by Pro fessor Brainerd Kellogg, president of the department of philology at the institute. His sub ject was "The Linguistic Position of the English." Tho topio was treated in a most interesting man ner by Dr. Jacksou throughout, and tho lecture was listened to with doep attention. Tho uext lecture in tho oourso will be given Friday afternoon, October 3 1, the subject being "The Introduction and Early History of the Language in Groat RAILROAD ESPLOIES CONVICTED.

Four Vuioa Elevated Station Hands Fined $25 Each. On the evening of August 28 tho attention of John J. Casey, a printor, residing at 1,379 Bread way, while he was passing tho Gates avenue aud Broadway station of the Brooklyn elevated railroad, waB attracted by adiaturbance on the'station stairway. A hurried glance Bhowed Casey that four of the railroad employes wero hustling an old man down the stairs with unneccesary Bover ity. He ran to the aoeno aud interposed in the aged stranger's behalf.

The interference came near costing him hia life. The station hands released thoir hold on their first victim and went at Casey hammer and tongB. He was thrown down and kicked about the face and body and his clothing almost torn to shreds by the railroad employes. As soon as he had sufficiently recovered from his injuries to get out he obtiined warrants for tho arreBt of his assailants, Frank May, WiRiam Prout, Thomas Moleswith and George Scott. The case has been called and adjourned for one reason and another in tho Gates avenue police court soveral times since.

Yesterday afternoon, however, it was finally settled. Colonel Fenton Rookwoll appeared for the com. plainant. Each of the quartet of prisoners wa3 found guilty and fined $25. May alone paid tho fine.

The others went to jail. THE THIRD HAY'S REGISTRATI05. A Total of 23.403 Entered Upon IJsIh Veatcrday. tno The following are the figures for tho third day's registration Wards. 1 800.

VTe have passed a rev onne bill applanse, congress paaaed ft new tariff bill applauiel, and in the interests of American producers fapplatise and marked in the direotion of protection, of Amer ican mantels anu. iun iimu farms and of American factories applause, and it was even urged agaiust that measure (wise in my judgment) that it was unconstitutional, because we had od tho taxing power for the purpose of protection.

It is remarkable that whatever is attempted by congress in the direction or progress, the elevation of our peoplo. their prosperity in tho direotion of equal rights and per sonai liberty an meu Domooracv always cnea ont that it is nuconstitu tional lapplauso and laughter, and this is no new cry, no now cry. There are two parties in this conntry, marked in respect to their policies. 1 call your attention to them Bince 1861 one nao beeu marcning ounnru auu constantly. It was proposed to destroy this nation and the Republican party said.

No applause it shall be perpetuated to our children and their ohildreu after them," and as against every single legislative enactment, as against evory Bingle gallant effortin the field, Democraoy yetted, Its unconstitutional, im uuiauuura tional." Applause. The party power at that time oontiuued it" onward progress and the other party simply fastened as tightly as it could its grip upon the conntry, pulling back. If it was to raise money or raise men this cry or "unconstitutional" and measures of force were urged constantly agaiust it. The Republican party did not hesitate then and it will not hesitate now.

And looking back oyer the Hold, or down looking back through tho last twonty fivo years ana martting music. we have made, the great achievements of the nation, there has not a Democratic convention been held in which it has not indorned all that has been done aud all that has been accomplished.

Applause Wo had a very Berious experience iu respect to the passage of this tariff bill of which Ispoko.

Applause. Thore was not a single method of obstruction that human ingenuity could devise that was not resorted to to delay it. My friends, you cannot appreciate, unless you have listened to them, to the long, endless, endless, endless speeches that thci average froo trader will make agaiust tho tariff bill applause, the motions for delay in. the direction of delay, and you cannot appreciate, unless you have watched them closely, their lg neranco upon that great economic question or elo their absolute criminality. Arguments were urged day after day willfully to deceive and prejudice the people, or else tho speakers wore uot acquainted with the A of a revenue bill or what it.

ought to be. I remember, aB you do, their Bpoakere constantly paradod the fact before tho country, charging it deliberately, aud it was caught up by the press, that the manufacturers of this country were already so well protected tiiflt minis apll t.hfiir elsewhere in other countries and sell them and did sell them at tr.im 50 to 75 and lop percent, aoove tne price at which they wore offered to the American oon unmnr and thnrp is nn man of ordinary intelli gence, I nay "ordinary" I will amend it and say very ordinary that i3 above tho class that should bu inmates of tho idiot asylum, but could have demonstrated to his own satisfaction that those itli. i'itah nit iinlrilP.

I told yon the length of time, a little while ago, that waB devoted to the oreatiou of thoso speeches illustrating the barbarous traditions that thiB bill has made. 1 will not undertake to tell you the length of time that was devoted by our opponents to proving tho robbery that wo proposod in the increased dnt.vnnon nocket knives. A hundred per thev said, was tho duty we had imposed upon the kuifo that the man earned in his pocket and used so generally, upon one class oi mem wo uiu aim there again is illustrated the franknesB, the in irMitiniiannss nf nnr nnnononts: upon a knife which costB or should cost 5 cents 5 cents, boar in mind, wholesale prico we did impose a duty of lOOoeroeut. Who buys or should buy a knife worth 5 cents 1 And what ia the condition of things iu respoct to cutlery Foreign peoplo havo learned to do this, to manufacture a knife which ia absolutely worthloas, that can be offored at 5 cetits apiece, imprint upon it, stamp upon itanama which would indicate that it was manufactured Dy some American house, namely the American cutlery company, of Boston or Brooklyn or aome wnere else, ltiuicauiig tun it is Atuta imu guuus, labeled in that way or stamped in that way, ad vertised in that way absolutely worthless; it was consignod to the consignees or the amenta of the manufacturers and put upon the maraet here and the American public purcnasmg a kiiiio whioh was a fraud and at a price whioh was rob Imrv.

I will take the dress goods, mixed with cotton; until we absorb hero in this country the production of themalland force down the price in a way whioh I will soon indicate, the purchasers may bear iu mind when they go If there is something else mixed with wool may bear in mind that when they go to the merchant they pay, or ought to py, just 3 cents mnrn a rd i it Ik all wool, uossiblv 4 cents a yard, and that is the robbery that has been described by thssa people; but they will make it more than that for tho reason, and bear this in mind, that wheu you imoote a tariff you have to impose it upon woight or width, or something of that kind, and cannot always cloarly indicate the quality of goods or the price of them if you will Havo a BPOCmc uuty, anil tney win laae luit uueau e.st iroods that they oan find, or else thoy will fix an arbitrary prije far below tho value. I have seon that done by these extremely solicitous men for the laboriinz classos of tho country, fixing aii arbitrary price upon the goods, a price, if they wereonly worth that price, which would absolutely iiiauro their boing purchased by tho American ojusumer aud the American public. Why! it would bo like this that you might say we had fnad a dntv of 000 nor cent, upon horses.

That is true in respoct to iron aud steel goods; in respect to many of them 100 por oent. is uot too largo. Why?

Alter listeuing to the eloquent remartts of my friend, the distiuguished senator from New York, there is no ueed of my saying anything about the tariff; but the tariff question is something more than the mere statement of statistics.

The two ascended the platform, where Colouel Thompson assisted Colonel Jones to take off hia overcoat, and tho independent candidate, amid groat applause, addressed the audience. Colonel Jones says that ho did not appropriate hia enthusinstic reception to himself, but regarded it as intended for thoso independent Republican citizeiiB of Brooklyn of which he cousiderod himself a representative. "Wo Republicans," continued Colonel Jones, "have our little squabbles, but in times.

when great principles are at stake we rally and unite againBt the common enemy." Colonel JoneB spoke for ten or fifteen minutes on the tariff and the record of tho lie publican party and tho general merit of the Mc Kinley bill and con eluded as follows: A a rrnnd and true Rfinublicans.

General BuaBoy, who spoke next, excused him self from making a long address on account of tho lateuess of aud the thinniug condition of the benches: Yesterday I was in Pittsburg, said General BuaBey. I Bpoko there laBt night the firstspeooh since 1888. During the day, as 1 had nothing to do, I walked out and inspected ono of the prod ucts or tne protection oi wniou you uavo ueam a good deal to night. It was an iron mill covering fifty acres. I saw there the crude material, worth 10 eeuts in the ground, and I saw all tho machinery that made from this raw material tho groat engine that brought mo from Pittsburg here to night.

In Massachusetts, which favors this protection, oue out of every 200 persons is an inventor. Mississippi yields ono inventor to each 19,000 of its population. In MassachuBotts the inventions produced are useful implements, advaucing the groat industrial value of our nation. In Mississippi the invention is of a double aotion ballot box by which to a ssaii this proteotion policy that has made us great. Speaking of Mr.

Wallace Geueral BuBseyBaid: I oan assure you no man in oon gress, for the time bo has been there, has made a otter record than Mr, Wallace, and if Brooklyn would do itself honor and serve Its best interosts it will roturn Mr. Wallace and will continue to do so for the next twenty years. Wo may jnst as well begin the oampaign of 1892 now, continued General Bussey. Grover Cleveland is tho embodyment of free trade doctrine thai has got te be fought out over again. Every time we have given up the protection polioy for such a policy as the Democrats favor we have suffered financial disaster.

Who is thiB Grover Cleveland, who protends to stand up before the great spirits of the departed heroes and statesmeu of this nation and read his letters against the policy which they deoreed as best for its prosperity See him before Washington, Lincoln, Madison, Hamilton and Clay. Each asks the other who this man is, with his theory to subvert what they had established. Along comes General Grant, and of him Madison asks, "Who is this man Grover Oloveland, anyhow!" Grant replies, "I have looked over the roUs of the Grand Army of the Republic and no such name is Along comes Garfield. He la asked to explain who this Grover Cleveland is. "I was in nnblio 'life twenty six years previous to coming plied Garfield, ''and I never hoard of him." Phil Sheridan is seen advancing up mo sunny slope, and as he approaohea the question in put to him, "Whol Grover Cleveland?" Sheridan replies, "Bie has been put up by tho people of the South, who from 1801 to 1865 tried to abolish protection with the musket, and, having failed, are now trying to accomplish their end with the ballot box, and are using this Grover Cleveland to pick their chestnuts out of the fire."

H. Garrett, of Nashvilloi president of the National teaohers' asBooiatiop, Is hero Making preliminary Inquiries from the local esfuqaUonal An End to the Base Ball War Anxiously Awaited. The Suicidal Pallcy of a Few Bfszruntled Players' league Adfior Blaek the Work of the CeaffMce Committee. Presiieat Byrne' Views oa the Matter. Not in the nineteen years of history of professional base ball organizations has there been a single yoar so damaging to the flnanoial interests of the professional clubs of the oountry as that of 1890, the championship season of whiou ended last week.

From the time of the first organization of an association governing professional players, in 1871, up to the present year, the history of the professional class of tho fr. iternity shows one or two perlodB of" demoralization, resulting from the selfish greed of the players, first exhibited during the era of orooked play during the seventies, and afterward for a single season on the occasion of the' old Union association rebellion, in the eighties, when contract breakers and revolvers tried to work ruin in the national league arena, tho only result of this latter secession movement being the enactment of that strong compact botween the leading professional organizations known as the national agreement. From that period up to 1890 tho National loague of professional clubs has beon the ruling power in the professional arena. After the national agreement went into effect each year saw better legislation for the cluba, improved rules of play and stricter discipline in the ranks, and when the brilliant season of 1889 ended, with its climax of the base ball tour of the world, the culminating point of professional club success was reached. But no sooner was this season closed thau a new rebellion was organized, in tho special interests of a small minority of the star players of the national league, tho salf aggrandizement of tho leaders, and a desire to introduce the oo operativo plan of running professional clubs, being the main incentives.

Startled out of thoir judgment by the boldness of this strike of their prominent players, tho national league magnates pursued a course, in their efforts to crmh it, which had a tendeuoy to not ouly give the movement an advantageous publicity, but also to evoke a aenti ment of sympathy with tho efforts of tho alleged "slaves of the league to emancipate themselves from the control of an odious monopoly." Tho result of all this was a temporary success of tho secessionists at tho outset, and a proportionate drawback to the anticipated profitable season of 1890 for the league clubs. But there was ono result whioh followed the strike, which neither the nowly organized players' league nor tho national league iu tho least expected, and that was the costly loss of public patronage to both organizations, brought about by the divided interests in tho championship areua which the strike led to. The soasou'B experience has not ouly fully provod the folly of the movement as a financial investment, but it has shown the fallacy of tho players' league plan of co operation between players aud capitalists in the running of professional base ball olubs. There 1b but one method for the management of professional olubf 'Mch admits cf financial Buocess, and that is 'ng of the power of governmental oontrol of the clnbj iu tho hands of two strong professional leagues, each representing two distinot methods of catering for the public patronage of the fraternity at large; and theso two methods aro Bhown in the workings of the national league and the American association, the former catering for the best class of patrons of baso ball grounds by their rule of opposition to Sunday games and tho sale of liquor ou their grounds, whilo the latter sook tho support of the masses by their plan of allowing Sunday games and tho froe sale of liquor. Anothor tlipg whioh this season's experience has fully proved is tho folly of tho idea that tho requisite discipline iu tho ranka to insure thorough team work on the field can be enforced uud9r the club government of players, direotors and stockholders.

The ouly possible system which will yield financial sncceis, alike to players and capitalists, in tho professional club 'Dullness, ia that of having employers in entire control of tho elub, leaving the players in the portion of paid employes only. Under no other system oan tho requisite discipline be enforced. The capitalists of the players' loague have realized this faot at great financial cost tho past sea son, and they aro now oombining together to benefit by the result of their sad experience. It was confidently expected that tho conference arranged for last Thursday at the Fifth avenue hotel would havo healed all broaches, and, so to speak, sot tho game ouce moro on its lege. It was no fault of either tho national or players' loagueB' magnates that this result was not roaohed.

When' the conference committoe adjourned two weeks ago to moot on Thursday everything (teemed favorable to a satisfactory ontcoma of tho deliberations of the capitalists concorned in the deal. Tho foolish work of a fow obstruction ists put an end to tho pleasing anticipations of those who had the good of tho game at heart, and matters are to day apparently as far from a settlement as they wore two months ago. The players, or to Bpoak more properly the brotherhood, havo bohaved badly, ungratefully and almost dishonorably. The golden bait the players held out to tho capitalists when appeal ing for their support In the fall of 1 889 haR beon proved to havo concealed a good sized hook and it is plainly the duty of tho brotherhood men to try and release the mon vho have worked for them and paid their salaries from tho embarrassing position in whioh they havo been placed by their implicit trust iu the honor of the base ball stars. The players do not seem to realize this and have deliberately blocked the proceedings which, carried toaBuccossful culmination.

would havo reimbursed their friends.pleaied the public, gained for themselves tho reapeot of their opponents and sndod the war. The national.American asso ciation aud players' loague magnates, after considerable careful manipulation, had boen brought together, the two former bodios agreeing to meet the capitalists of the players' league aud consider the situation. The brotherhood inline diatuly called a meeting and appointed a commit tee of three to bo present at the proposod conference. Independent of the fact that the play ors were not invited to the conference, and therefore had no right to be present, it was a great piece of impertinence for them to resolve to appoint a committee to watch over their inter ests. For twelve months Wendell Goodwin and Eddy Talcott have boen watching over the interests of the players far bettor than they have beon watching over the interests of Goodwin and lal cott, and it was the height of ingratitude for the players to pass a resolution that appeared to indicate that they had lost confidence in the men who had done so much for thorn.

It wau as if a man should embrace his wifo and say: "I love you. dear, and I trust you implicitly, but I am going to hire a detective to watoh you." That the players' leaguo magnates were willing to take in tho brotherhood representatives to the conference is not surprising. If, and tho point has not yet beon raised, the players wont to Messrs, Talcott Co. and said, "If wo do not get repre sentation wo wiU dump you. Our old clubs will take us baok and then where will you and your moneyed interests be what could the oapi talists do but try and induoe the national league magnates to consent to the move.

The national leaguo magnates refused, naturally enough, to confer with others than the regularly appointed members of tho conference committee and the bottom of tho conference djopped out. President Byrne, of the champion Brooklyns, said, yesterday: "Wo wore disgustod at the solfiahness of the players. We aro anxious for a settlement of the war whioh is hurting our pockets and hurting the national game, but we are not anxious to sacrifice all our aelf rospoct to procure that settlement. I have a right to apeak ou the subjeot, beoauao I have, recognizing what a continuance of the war moans, worked hard iu the interests of peace. It was easier for mo than for any of the other clubs' representatives, because I had nothing to baok down from, Evoryone knows that the playera' league robbed me of no players and that we have mrfre than hold our own during the season.

Our old frieuds have stuok by us and all we have to com plain about is tho lack of general interest. Speaking for tho national league I may Bay that we are atill willing and anxiouB for a conference with a view to compromise, but that conference must be with representative men who have as muoh at stake a3 we have. The conference is bound to come and peace will follow it, but the action of a few players' league advisers, who are scared at the thought of acknowledging that they were wrong, has put off the settlement. A good deal has been said of the injustice a compromise may do the yonng players who have filled the breach made by the defection of last year'B stare All the young players will bo cared for. The men who are managing clubs are looking for young blood aU the time.

The men who showed themselves able to keep their ends up in a major leaguo will be kopt there." Mr. Byrne is right. Existing circumstances are such that the warring factions will bo obliged by force of public opinion to adopt somo form of compromise in the matter. Bankruptcy of all the clubs stares tho capit alists ou both sides in tho face in the caso of a continuance of the suicidal war for anothor season. It is only by a conference that any solu tion of the difficulty can bo reached, and een then mutual concessions must take place.

The Ballread Coasraittce of the Cemrass Onncil Hearing Petitiem From Rcii dents And in th Viciaity of Tkird Atobhc Rot. Goarco Taylor' Forcible Letter. The committee on railroads of the common council met last night to hear those interested in a petition from citizens ef the Eighth ward asking that the Brooklyn city railroad company be compelled to mako better provisions for safety on the line of the Third avonue steam dummy railroad.

Of the railroad committee there were prosont Aldermen Coffey, Thomas and McGarry. Alderman Coffey prosided and called for tho reading of tho citizens' petition. It set forth that three perdons had beon killed by the Third avenuo steam dummioa within the past few months and asked tho common council to require that two competent men should bo on each" dummy at all times, one of whom should be on tho lookout and use some unobjectionable signal when approaching dangerously to that a man should bo on the loft side of the rear platform of the last car of each train to warn people when the train was stopped and another train waB approaching on the other track, aud that a flagman should bo stationed ou each croBBing. The first name signed to the petition was that of the Rev. George Lansing Taylor.

Chairman Coffey aBked if he was present. He was not but had sent a letter. Alderman Coffoy refused to receive the letter, saying: "I don't want it; we get too many letters from people who sign petitions and do nothing more. I seo that the Rev. George W.

Greenwood's name is also signed to the petition. Is ho here?" Mr. Greonwood was detained by acburch meet ing and Mr. James W. Crabbo was as.od if he had anything to a.y Ho stated that he thought the petition showod clearly the necussity of tne demands of the petition being granted, out ho would ask the common council to roauest the police commissioner to cause the arrest of ou giueera wuo oxceed tno spoou oi nvo nines an hour.

Ho had timed the train on which he had come to tho meeting and altuougn it moveu slower than is usual, it speeded at the rate of eleven miles au nour. President Lewis, of tho Brooklyn city railroad company, asked Air. Crabbe where he got the authority for a law under which tho road could be compelled to place a flagman at each crossing. Mr. Crabbo replied that he got it from tho statute and in answer to another question admitted that the statuio referred to steam railroads.

Alt'. Lewis As this petition refers to extra en gineers, men ou rear platforms and uagmen, i will cimfiuo myself to those BUbjocts. Tho question of extra eugineors ia an absurdity, as there ia a brakemau ou each tram within sixteet of the engineer no could reach the dummy and stop the train withiu a minute should anything happen to tho engineer. As to compelling the com pany to nave a man on tue rear pianorin oi eacn train, that would be establishing a remarkable precedent. There is more reason for sucu a look out to no placed on norsecars, a our trains are Bix minutes apart, whilo constant streams of horse cars pass up and down tho avenues.

As to Placing of flagmen at each crossing, I must say the company cannot do it. Ours is not a steam railroad, but an improved motor line, aud under the law we are not required to supply flrgraon at crossings, steam railroads are uot required lo havo Uagmen at all tho crossings. Unr steam dummies cross thirty live streets in tho city tnat would mean seventy flagmen at a co.tof $2 a day, which is just about the amouut of the receipts of the road. Atdermau Coffey Accordiug to thia petition the people of the Eighth ward are willing to permit the continuance of dummies on Third avenue if the requests of potitionorB aro complied with, let that tno understanding Air. firabhe Not at all.

wo do not want the dummies under any consideration. It seems im possible to get rid ot them just yet and we asK that these rules bo made that Ufo may bo more safe during thoir aojouru. People have come to these meetings with protests until they aro tuod. in Bouth Brooklyn you frequently hear a converaaiiou liko tins: "Who otvtis tho city "The people." "Who owns tho people "1'ho politicians." "No. Mr.

Crabhe," interrupted President Lewis. "Who own tho politiciatH7" The Brooklyn city railroad company." wuat are you going to do about it 7" "Buy the tall The peoplo believe those ana iycis. Their lives are in coustaut danger and they seem to have no redress. Air. says a looaout man is needed on horse cars moro thau on theso trains, out wo never hear of lata! accidents on Fulton street, lie says they cannot afford to placo liagulou at all oroaaings.

Thou lot him taiiO off his dummies and put on horses. Tho eievated road, built at an enormous expense, wai to compete witii this road, which coats uotlnng, and was to carry passengers at tue same fare, it lieeins impossible to got this compauy to do auytuiug lor the s.ifetv of the public. Alderman Coffey I agree with you that it is very hard to get corporations to do anything. Mr. Crabbo We are now endeavoring io raise money to bring a suit compelling the discontinuance of steam ou 1'hird avenuo.

l'eopte wno are asked to subscribe want to know wnat the aldermen are elected for if they cannot act for me people iu this matter. There is a gentleman iu this room to uight who will uot let his nix children attend public school because tt.ey havo to cross this steam road to reach me schoolnouse. Al lertnan Coffey Air. Lewis takes away all tho foroo of the argument by admitting that uis dummies are a nuisance. Crabbo That may be so, bnt is thia a caso of Bill Tweed's What are you going to do about it? Mr.

HnnkinH. of Fort Hamilton, suoko in favor of continuing steam dummies on Third avcuue, and said he traveled over the road daily and failed to see that accidents wero of frequent occurrence. He would always bo iu favor of steam instead of horses ou surface roads. Air. Crabbu But I nottoe that you compel this company to station flagmen at crossings in New Utrecht, while tho city of Brooklyn is powerless to do the Bame.

President Lewis hastened to explain that the town of New Utrecht did not compel the company to have flagmen, but that at Seventy ninth street, which croesea the railroad diagonally, a flagman had been stationed at the request of property owners. Ho Baid thia waB tho only place wuore there waa a flagman, but admittod, later, that there was another at Bay Ridge avenue, which crosses the track at right angles. Alderman Coffey became intorosted and closely questioned Mr. Lewis ou this. Ho denied that tho town of New Utrecht could compel the company to havo flagmen at crossings, although he said, iu answer to questions, thai the town might order it.

When asked if the town could uot compel tho compauy to carry out its orders, Mr. Lewis Baid: "Without going into matters of other towns, let mo say that there is no way to do, if there niiiBt bo a chaugo on Third avenuo, but to go back to horses. Crabhe seems to he the chief kicker, aud I think the city wouid eave a groat deal of trouble by buying him a house iu some other locality." "Your company had better attend to that," said Alderman Coffey. "I will agree to have a conference with bim on tho replied Mr. Lowis.

The discussion waa continued for a long time. Alderman Coffey, when he heard that tho llov. Mr. Taylor was out of town and that his letter was important, relented and reoeived the lettor. It was a strong protest against steam motors on Third avenue, and said in conclusion: "AimoBt every week witnesses the killing or maiming of Bome human boing by those steam motors.

Some of the moBt shocking tragedies I have ever known havo boeu among the list, uotably tho slaughter of Miss i'iliie a member and tho organist of my church aud one of its brightest ornaments. If the poople of this ward wero to rise en masse aud tear up the tracks of this road and burn and twist the rails iu bonfires of tho ties I could Bcarcelv forbid my parishioners from joining iu the work or refrain from doing so myself." The petition will be connidorod at a meeting of tho full committee. REHEARSING FOR THE KIRMESS. Active PreparatioiiH Cora ComiMU social Erout. The KirmesB festival promises to bo one of tho most brilliant events of the season.

It is the first held in Brooklyn in six years, and tho interest manifested is by no means inconsiderable. Under tho direotion of Carl Marwig, of Now York, who last winter had charge of similar entertainments given by Mrs. Vanderbilt and Mrs. Astor, tho 200 young ladies and gentlemen, all homo talent, who compose tho company, havo been rehearsing for four weeks at Remson hall.Court and Remsen streets, and, as was clearly evinced last night, their efforta havo brought them proficiency in their individual roles. With perfect gracefulness the dancers glide over the floor, making many now and artistic steps and movements.

Most poople are acquainted with the majority of the dances which will be executed and their effects are considerably heightened by tho novel features which are introduced with each. For instance, in the Dutch dance, all tho participants will carry knitting work and imitato tho play of tho needles during the progross of the dance; in the Swodish, tho dancers will jinglo sleigh bells as an accompaniment to their light fantastic trippings; in the Gypay, tambourines will be played upon, and in the Spanish, lace scarfs, fans and caatanots will contribute to a proper represention of this pretty exercise. The programme will be made up of Kir mea tableaux and a grand possession, after which the various dancos will bo performed, tho closing feature being a grand finale procession with tableaux. Sixteen couples will executo each dance and the following will act ab chaporons: Minuet (Louis XIV), Mrs. David A.

The Republican party has always been a party of deeds and not of promises. For the first time in many years all departments of the federal government have been filled by men of its choice. Tho result has been that laws have been passed which have solved all the threatening and difficult problems tvVunii hart ar.enmaiated durtuir tno previous years of stagnation. Indecision and failure of Democratic government and obstruction, tho rlnnnera which threatened the country from the great change in the relative values of gold and silver, the tendency toward an nnduo contraction by despoiling our currency of aid from our mines of silver, and the danger of undue expansion bv allowing the wealth of thoe mines to mpersede gold, have all been removed by wise laws which have inado both motals contribute fairly and equitably to Insure a currency equal to all emergencies of business and based ou huho lute and certain values. The problems which were presented by the growth and changes of trado without any corresponding or proper change in the las affectinc tho same have been solved by a tariff act which releasos commerce by giving the largest free list of importi that havo been allowed for fifty years and has increased duties only where it was necessary to foster Amorlcan industriei and preserve the independence and dignity of American labor.

With all this tho great needs of legislation peculiar to Brooklyn havo not been omitted and Brooklyn owes a debt of gratitude to the Republican leaders in tho houso of representatives and the souate and peculiarly to the young, zealous and successful congressman from the Third district of this city, who has stood manfully and alone among all tno representatives from this locality for the great measures of reform aud reinstatement which marked tho full entry of the Republican party into tho full power and re Kj oiiHibility of government. Ex Judge Reynolds thou addressed the meeting ns follow As was aunouncod by tho chairman of the campaign committeo I do not possess to night that most requisite of qualities for a presiding officer a voice. As you know some three weeks ago I was left out in the extreme cold, that it has affected my vocal organs. But I congratulate you and ihe Republicans of Brooklyn on this magnificent gathering in such stormy weaiher. It' the Republicans can do this on such a nijfht what will they do on election day 1 Despite the fact that there aro no state or national candidates to bo voted for this election is an important one.

The local issues reach out into national importance, for what you do, or fail to do, will havo an important bearing ou the constitution of the next senate and tho next hoiL of representatives. We aro met hero to night and engaged in this campaign during a recess of a congress that has accomplished more statesmanlike and patriotic legislation than has been achieved in a deeado It has been legislation lor the Unitod States, not for England or for Canada. It is this that its friends applaud and its enemies call its faults. I am not going to discus the soundness of this legislation, Yon will be addres ed by one of the uenatr.rs from Now York Mho has been a potent factor in shaping it 'find you wili hear your ropror.ont.itivo in congress. And now the question is, Will you return this representative, Mr.

Wallace, or will you be represented by a man with ultra Demucratio vi'. ws? All the questions of this campaign are crystnlized in this: Will you be represented by a Ik publican or a free trader 1 have not heard it, claimed by any one that Mr. Wallace has not made a creditable record in concress; that he has not been a faithful, efficient aud yitclligent representative, serving the inter Ma of Brooklyn well while ho has served ihe whole country by the light by. which jtio Republican party of the United States Las been steering Its course, If there aro any of you here who desiro a free trader to represent you in congress that one will vote for Mr. Coombs.

But you who desire tho protection of the manufacturing interests of this country, of ihe products tho shops ana ot tno rarms win just as certainly vote for Mr. Wallace, and there io noway you can express your voice in Washington better than by doing so. Judge Reynolds said a word for the local nominees, a that each and all on the city and county tickets were worthy of hearty support. Secretary 'S'racy Talks for Wallace aail tfce Local Ticket. Judgo Reynolds then introduced Socrotary of tho Navy Benjamin F.

Tracy. Tho mention of namo was followed by a roar of applause, and las General Tracy advanced to the front of the 'platform ho was cheered for Bomo minutes. Threo cheers were called for by a pair of strong lungs aud were given with gusto. Genoral 'Tracy spoke as follows: When I was spoken to of this meoting to night, I said that I was coming to Brooklyn to day to qualify myself by registering, bo that I would bo abie to vote for the excellent county ticket and local ticket that had been placed in the Held by the Republicans of Brooklyn. Applause.

And I would come to this meeting; but I said I would not make a speech I woula not undertako to epeak upon tho political issues of the day presented in tho pending canvass. And thereupon, 1 jioiiccd, that my friends proceeded to advertiso ni! for a speech. Laughter. Well, now, I havo Eps my word by coming to tho meeting, and I nin going to keep uiy word further by not at teW 'ing to mako a Bpooch upon the political is Biice of tho day. A a citizen of Brooklyn I do feel a deep interest, rs I have always felt a cteep interest, in tho success of the local 'Jcbet of tho city of Brooklyn aud of tho county Of Kings For tventy fivo years I hao taken part how in our cal election', and aside from liotr.e there is no in whiaji I liko to be eo well as in a Republican mcelliS in the ciiy of ErooklTii.

Applause. to If and ha men, I will ventnro to say, during their first session, havo ever held more influential position, have ever accomplished more, than William 0. Wallace has accomplished during his first session.

'Bravo and cheers. Why.take asingle instance that is familiar to yon all. For how many years has Brooklyn been striving to get a portion or the navy yard lands for a market You have hau your Democratic representative!) who have been there year after year in Democratic houses or representatives, where they should have wieiued an influence, and did wield an influence, but they never succeeded in passing that bill which Mr. Wallace passed at the very first session of congress. Applause.

He has the ability, the genius of work in congress He has the faculty of mating himself popular with his associates. Every man in congress who knows him is his friend and will do auvthing he can to aid him in what he seeks to accomplish. Applause. As I nave aid. of his election there can ba no doubt.

Ap plause.l But you ought to elect S.nitU, nlnct S.llltU. Ill cr (Ann hhhu. mere is a district where hard work and. zealous work by the Republicans oan achieve a victory. Then there arc at least rour members or assembly that should bo elected in lungs cour.tv besidd vour sheriff.

I trust ami believe that the Republicans of Brooklyn and or Kings county will work to aohieve a success and a consummation so devoutly to be wished as the success of tneir ticket on election day. Now. on tho general issues of tho day, fellow citizens, 1 am uuv hut. a uintrlft word. The CXCCUtlVO liranch of the government enforce laws; they don't pass them.

Congress passes the laws, and it is for vour senators nud members of congress, who are responsible for the laws that they have enacted, to explain and derend them. Fortuuato nn tWo ln (r tr l.n 1 fll t. wild Will atl Senator Iliscoek. rAnnlause. His inflnmipR in the intrislation that haB been consum mated br the piesent congressis second to none other in" either house.

Applause. Especially M.K'inti.v lull fannlansul ho is familiar with all its provision. for ho is the author of many of them. And your member of congress, 1 li will atwrt wnpalr to vnn nil that Hub jec't. Appiause.J I profess to no intimate knowledge of schedules, lain not competent to draw Rclifilnln of a tariff bill.

I don't orofeSS to be. I only know enough about the tariff to know that I prefer protection to troe. trade. Applauso and cries of good I' And all I have got to say to our free trade friends is this: That when they will lihow mo aud convince me that free trade can be established in thiB country without reducing the wages of the laboring meu of this country then I will support free trade. Applauso.

But uutil thHvcan dn that I Drefer Drotection. "Applause. I am not a believer in the doctrine that labor, low wanes, wacrea of starvation i thu best iutorests of the American people or of the American government. iAp I believe that the uuoxampied pros perity of this country from tho olose of the war to the present time is jwing more to the fact that we havo been enabled to maintain a high rate of wages for our laboring people than any otner funt in tho world. fAonlauso.

It is the pron npritv nf the in.iqsea. the nrosnrritv of the men who work and who toil day and day out that has made the prosperity of this country. Ap nlniiM" Imlieve that the man who labors stiould bo able to earn enough that his family may be well housed, well clothed, well fed and his children properly educated. Applause A republic depends for its dafety upon the intelligence of the masses' of its people. Applause Wlion the laboring men ot this country are not able to educato their cuudron so that the children of the laboring man pnmil frhnnr.fi in life with th children of the rich man, then we are on the road to degradation and disgrace Applause.

The i uf the laboriuir man should bo so well educated that every avenue in life is open to them open as broad and as widely to thorn as to the children of the rich. Applause. Thus it has been hitherto, aud, if we are wise, so It will tie hereafter. Appluse. I am no stickler tor iirntcfttim nf American canital.

Let money take care of itself. Anolauso. But I am a be liever in the fact that to reduce the wages of the laboring people of tho country to a par with the I nurerii ot Europe would be tho greatest disaster tl.iii. lx.r. ill the cunutrv.

rAnnlause Can tn with them in the manufact urintr industries exoept upon the bais thai our labor must be brought on a par with Eu rnnonn Ijhnr? Whv do our industries, our manufactured goods cost more than they do iu Ui rmapy, or iu England, or in Franoe, or in Italy Is there any possible reason to be as sumed for it but the lact tliat we pay otir moor our operatives in our factories twice iUv vonfiivn in (rnrmanv. Our machinery is as good as theirs. Our people are as atdltul aB theirs. If we reduue the laborer's wages of this country to a par with those of Germany wfl can mako goods just as cheap as they can. But can vou afford to pay that price for cheap goods, fel ir.w 9 That is the attention.

Can you nfford to reduce to the wages of Germany or of England your laborers to the wages of Germany and England lor mo sane oi Doing auie iu manufacture goods that you may comnete with Germany and England in foreign markets Wo have the best market in the world. Applause. This market of tho United States is a market for G4, 000,000 of people of people that consume f.nitn twice the amount of any other people who live. Applause. I would rather have the market of the Unitod States than the market of Germany and Austria and Italy combined.

Applause) I would not swap it for the market of those three governments. Shall we tneu in cne hope of being able to compete with England and armnnv tlin lnnrkfitH of Africa anil Asia de grado the labor of America down to the point that tho laborer of Germany and of England ia de graded? Shall we put them on those wages7 that, ia a niipnt.tnn that concerns the laborui man. There is none in this country bo much interested iu the question of the tariff as is the laboring man. It is he and he alone, noils from the caDitalists. that is interested at all in that quostion.

It is a question for them to decide. If they want, lor tne purposo oi en tering into competition with Germany and Eng. fnr tlin markets of Africa and Asia, to re duce their own wagon down one half, why they can do it by voting for freo trade. If they want to preservo them on the proper basis, the present lmsis. if t.hnv desire a continuance of the pros perity that thoy have shared lor the last quarter of a century, tue prosperity eiijoyeti uy no o.uei laboring people on the faco of tho earth, a prs iicritv that nannob be camoared with any pros perity known to the masses of the people of any nation save those of tho Unitod States if they want to preserve that they will uot vote for freo trade but for protectiou.

LA.ppiausc.j Senator Hiecoctt Stands by Reed, Tariff and (lie Force Bill. tltc As Secretary Tracy took his seat Congressman Wallace appeared on the atago and was loudly cheered. The chairman introduced as the next speaker Senator Hiscock, who waa very coidially recoivod Tho senator spoke as follows: Mr. Chairman, ladies and gentlemon It seems to me that I am somewhat out of place here in the city of Brooklyn, sandwiched in becwoeu the secretary of the navy annlausel. who has done so much to illustrate tho powor, the glory and the enterprise of the American peoplo upon tno nign Heas, nuu mu uiauuuuisneu representative from the city of Brooklyn rnnniauael that in one term or cougrcss, or ono session of congress, has achieved lor himself a reputation that a veteran might well be proud of.

Applause. With these men here to address you there was no need to nail fnr vnhintaers from any other section of tho state. But here, I propose in a brief period of time to discuss somo oi tne oojections mat are tirmjd to tho Republican party by our adversaries and urge a fow reasons whv the Republioau party should still command public ooniidence. Thoy toll ii that the ltoDublicau party ia revolutionary aud unconstitutional in its methods. And why Because in the house of representatives great applause and the usual inquiry and answer as to just what is the matter with Tom Reed ruled wixalv and cnnutitutioiiallv ttiat a Doinocratic obstructionist could not sit in his seat for iho purpose of delaying tho wheels of tii fiirmKii and not be counted to make quorum apnlause that he could not be present for obstruction and absent for tho purpose of legislation applause; that a maD can't be there to raise his voieo in opposition to measures which are presented and absent lor me purposo oi ae them: that whenever the right to bo pres ent is exerctBed, and wherever the right of speech is exercised within and under tho constitution, wlmpvnv nxm cises the rizht ia present for all the nurnotes of legislation.

Applause. Ho ruled thus, and I predict I will not say lieilOC, OI a UCUttllU xioitL.D. Jt mil naj mr lip.ncfi them will uot bo found in these United States in either party the man who has tho temerity to assail those rulings, or that ruling. Applause. It has been approved by the bar of tho country, and whenever it roachoB the courts it will bo approved by that tribunal.

Applause. Wo havo heard a groat deal said in respect to a force bill that wo propose to pass. Applause. Don't bo alarmed because it Is labeled as a force bill. It does not imply the use of force.

It does uot direct the uso of force, and will not, unless necessary to prevent the perpetration of high crimes and misdemeanors. Applause. In every Republican convention that has been held within my recolleotion tho Republicans have pronounced in favor of manhood ballot whioh is guaranteed by the Constitution of thu United States, have declared in favor of that ballot's being counted aud returned aud carrying its proper force and effect. The Republican party stands pledged to that doctrine. And what is proposed? Not to obstruct voters.

Oh no, no: simply to provide that meu that are entitled to vote may vote applause, and we are told that thi is a force bill. Why, Mr. Chairman, we have similar force bills npon onr statute books here in tho State of New York, those bills which oreato eourts.provide for district attorneys, tho election and tho qualification of sheriffs, police force that is to guard this city. They are force bills, but tho force is only to be usod against criminals and none others, and yet Trom one end of the country to tho other we are arraigned theRepubhcan party is because it pro poses to provide for an honest olection and a faithrul count and return. Applause.

Well, tho Republicans, upon the issue, oan well mi tn nnmncraov. "If this in force, then make the most of it" Applause. A few years ago Southern statesmen apologized or denied that they interfered with the ballot as cast and recorded, as cast in their states, and Northern Democracy denied it, but we havo readied that point where it is no longor denied or apologized for, but they boldly will do this thing and make the most of ft," and there is this 0,000.000 of people that are disfranchued, the Constitution is violated, a crime that ories to heavon for redress; but that is not all. Deprived as they are of the ballot and representation in the making of laws, they are nevertheteBa counted, aud pn their enumeration in the aggregate they take representatives in congress, or an increased representation in congress, to vote upon all those groat measures in which you aud I are vitally interested. Not alone is the blaok man affected, but every Northern conBtitnenoy is affeoted.

Two, or three, or four, or fivo man or peoplo aro countod for representation there that havo no representation, to make up this onlarged representation, while hero at tho North it is upon the actual population that has a representation tn Yt ttin head of the family or in the males over 21 yearB of age that we have apportioned to us our representatives in thepopnlar branch of congress. Grime, I said, against those people that are douled the right of suffrage practically, and a crime against yon, and, me, and every constituency in which honest eleotioas are provided for, arejiar iu whiou all of the voting DonuMalon are jrMaranteed, and Droteoted; v.le.tt Bnue. tne louowiug omcera woronumtou vnar: Preaidont.
