Lefaxox, Mo., Nov. 1 0. In reply to
a request that he would g-ive the
press his views on the result of Tues
day's election. Mr. R. P. Rlaud stated
he was so overwhelmed with the un
expected nature of the returns from
all parts of the country that he was
not nrepared to g-ive an opinion for
publication of the causes which led to
the landslide. He attributed his own
defeat, however, very larg-ely to over
con tidence among- his political friends
in Democratic counties resulting- in a
dangerous falling-off in the Demo
cra'.ir vote. He takes defeat philoso-p:..-ai:y
and is of the opinion the Re
publican victory will prove a valii
ab:o lesson to Missouri Democrats.
Aucitional returns, received last eve

He said when asked as to the causes
r.f the Democratic defeat, that he had
nt been paying- any attention to pol
it.es since the adjournment of the
senate, but had been devoting- his
mc to g-etting- well. It was
i.ar.l to tell what particular
thing was most influential. In

lnulls on the Election.
'Kaxsas Cmy Mo., Nov. 12. John
J. Ingalls, ex-senator from Kansas,
arrived at the Union station 'at 10:10
o'clock this morning from Atchison,
and forty minutes later left for "Car
thage to deliver a lecture.
"The result last Tuesday,"' said Mr.
Ingalls, referring to the election,
"was mere than a Republican victory.
It was more than a Democratic de
feat. It was a revolution. It was'
the indignant protest of the national
conscience against imbecility, in
capacity, hypocrisy, duplicity and
dishonor. The redemption of Kansas
is complete. The costly and humil
iating aberration of the past four
years has disappeared and reason and
common sense have resumed their
sway. The Republican party has now
a supreme opportunity to deal with
the causes of discontent which
brought about the original catastro
phe, and I have no doubt that under
the prudent and conservative leader
ship of Major Morrill anil his very
able associates they will meet the
emergency- with wisdom and forti
tude." 'Do you expect to retnrn to public
life. Mr. Ingalls?" was asked.
"No. 1 have at present no purpose
nor inclination to return to the public
service in any capacity. I am not in
different to "the honors, the rewards,
the splendid incentives of public life,
but I have had my da3. 1 have no
ambition that has not been fully
gratified and the constituency that
has supported me so long- mig-ht justly

. 1 , for further ore ferment. -Tim un
precedented honor of a fourth term
in the senate is a distinction that no
man could have the hardihood to ask
nor the temeritv to decline."
Mr. Ingalls was at the Union sta
t;on yesterday a few minutes, and
has been there often, ami he ex
plained his frequent appearance this
wav:
j "I earn my living now on the lect
j ure plat orm. Five years ago I sup
j posed 1 had a moderate competency,
: but the shrinkage of values and the
strangulation of business left me
; stranded, and my income from real
! estates and other investments barely
j suffices to meet taxes, insurance, in-
terest and repairs, so that I have
J been compelled to pack 1113
j and go on the road again."
"Do von contemplate any
; of occupation'.'"'
; "1 have had many lucrative pro
: posals for newspaper and other pro
i fessional employment, but 1 have de
clined to consider them because I do
not wish to relinquish my residence
in Kansas and my life is too far ad
vanccd'to permit me to contemplate

The Tariff Iteforuier Not Dismayed
Over tho Political Upheaval.
Wasuixgton, Nov. 9. Tariff re
formers are not in the least dismayed
by the result of the election. They
j hold it to be but the natural conse
1 quence of Democratic incompetency
I and folly as exhibited in its broken
tariff' reform promises and pledges.
Senator Call said to-day: "When a
party ha3 been advocating a certain
policy and then when it gets into
power fails to carry out that policy,
it is sure to suffer defeaL"
' President Proctor of the civil ser
vice commission said: "Had the party
followed President Cleveland it would
have been victorious."
Secretary Smith said: "Had the
Democratic party stood by Mr. Cleve
land and his policies, it would have
won even this year."
The politicians are dumfounded by
the popular uprising. The reformers
are wholly undisturbed. They say
that President Cleveland warned his
party in the Wilson letter that it
could not face the people on a meas
ure fraught with perfidy and dishonor
and that the country has now over
whelmingly sustained the moral veto

bill when he refused to siirn iL

I Indignation Over.the Late I'leetiou Mur
der-.
Chicago, Nov. 12. The murder of
Gus Collander. by a gang of toughs
while watching the counting of .bal
lots in the Ninth precinct of.i
Twenty-third ward last Ttuwkty,
caused indignation meetings in nearly
every ward of the North side last
night to protest against election day
outrages, and to pledge united action
in avenging the death. At each meet
ing resolutions condemning the
brutal murders and assaults and the
men in office who were responsible
for them, were adopted. Fervid
speeches, demanding retribution both
in the courts ami at the polls, were
made and applauded by Democrats
and Republicans alike.
The .facts brought to light by
the police show that the .Market
street gang, otherwise known
as the "O'Malley gang." had formed
a deliberate plan not only to sicze
the ballot boxes of several precincts,
but to kill the judges and clerks if
necessary. It is known that the
members of the gang, all of whom
have more or less unsavory records,
held a number of meetings in the rear
of a Market street saloon.
The Record, Independent, to-day
says:
"There are indications that men of
influence and city otliceholders were
in communication, if not in direct
collusion, with the sran; that thev
had promised its members immunity
from police interference aud that they
had paid the livery bills for the car
riages that were used both before and
i after the murder of Collander. If
j the facts which were hinted at can be
proved the case will furnish most
sensational developments and the
names of persons hirh in office will
be dragged into it.
"It is also evident that the bravado
of the gang is not yet broken. Its
members who are still at larcre and
relying on the promised protection
have shown their hands several times
by appearing to threaten the lives of
men who are supposed to have inside
information as to their doings."'
The Civic Federation has already
gone vigorously into the work of
prosecuting the gang. It began to
collect its evidence yesterday and no
effort will be spared to convict those
who are guilty. No warrants will be
sworn out, however, until the police
have done what they can toward find
ing the men wanted. Inspector
Schaack says he is perfectly willing
to catch such of the men as he can
and turn them over for prosecution.
He thinks the great difficulty will be
getting the necessary identification
of the men who were implicated in
the murder of Collander. although it
will be a comparatively easy matter
to pick out the ones who wen con
cerned in the riots at the other polling
places.. "They are all slippery crim
inals," he said, "they have been all
over the country and served their
time in a number of peniteutiaries
and it is correspondingly difficult to
locate them."
The Inter Ocean (Republican) to
day contains grave charges of con
nivance at the election day outrages
by Inspector Schaack and Police Cap
tain Gibbons.
No ISond Ivwue.
Washington. Nov. 12. The report
telegraphed from New York and pub
lished in the morning papers that
another S50. 000,000 bond issue had
been determined upon is without
foundation, but Secretary Carlisle has
not changed in the least his policy
with respect to the issue of bonds
and if it is found necessary to issue
bonds to maintain credit they will be
issued without the leasts hesitation.
The present conditions do n t war
rant such action.
The Comtnfr Seion Not J.ilcoly to Ke
'ult lu 'Any GontV Legislation.
Washington, Nov. 1 2. The session
of congress which will open Decem
ber 5 is not expected by those
familiar with congressional methods
to be productive of much legislation.
The facts that it will last for only
three months, that it will be the
last session of the congress and that
it so closeli' follows a general elec
tion are all considered as indicating
that comparatively little real work
will be attempted" and still less ac
complished. The greater part of the
session will in an probability be con
fined to an exchange of dialling over
the results of the election.
It is probable that next to nothing
will be done before the Christmas
holidays and predictions are freely
made that it will be difficult to ob
tain or maintain a quorum previous
to that time. After the holidays

n hen the last session adjourned the
measures attracting the most atten
tion were the supplemental tariff or
free raw material bills. They passed
the house and had been favorably re
ported to the senate with material
amendments by the senate commit
tee on finance. While a maioritv of
the Democratic senators are friendly i
to those bills, there is a considerable ,
element in the party opposed to their j
consideration as are practically all 1
the Republican senators, and these j
will be able to prevent favorable con-
sitleration of these bills because of :
the short session. They also claim j
that if a vote should be reached j
there will be a majority against them, j
lt should be stated, however, that
there is a division of opinion among
the opponents of the free sugar bill !
and that some Republicans and some j
conservative Democrats have ex-
pressed a willingness to allow this 1
bill to become a law, but the best in
dications are that the fate of the bill '
will be determined by the fate of the
others of the same class.

CHINA AND AMERICA.
1 ho minister and Secretary of Stato
Gresham Conferring.
Washington, Nov. 12. The Chinese
minister here had a long conference
with Secretary Gresham yesterday
morning. This was one of several
conferences held within the last ten
days.
The Chinese minister is acting
under the first article of the treaty of
ISIS; it pledges the Fnitcd States in
case China is oppressively or unjustly
treated by another power, to use its
good offices to arrange the difficulty.
It is similar in scope to the first arti
cle in the treaty with Corea which led
Secretary Gresham at the begin
ning of the trouble to write
the note to United States Minister
Dunn at Tokio relative to the
Japanese occupation of Corea. The
matter was laid before the president,
who has had it under consideration
for a week or more. As the United
States representations in the case of
the occupation of Corea had little ef
fect, theVe. ' is no reason to suppose
that a different result would
follow an attempt to use
good offices in favor of Chi
na. If the Chinese government
desires the United States to present
peace proposals to Japan as arbitra
tor this may be done through Minis
ter Denby, but it is felt here that the
better way would be for China to sub
mit her proposals directly to Japan,
when it would be entirely within
the bounds of propriety for the United
States to express the gratification .it
would feel as a nation friendly to
both to see peace arranged on honor
able terms.

DUN'S BUSINESS REPORT.
Itestilt of the Kleetioin Kxpertoit to
Give it a Sharp Stimulm.
Nkw Yoiuc, Nov. 12. i:. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review 01 Trade says:
Rusiness has been waiting the
greater part of the past week and
the elections are expected to give it a
sharp stimulus. Whether men are
right or wrong in expecting better
things, the fact that they expect
them does not tend to make things
better.
In the speculative markets there
has been scarcely any movement and
nothing favorable to holders. Wheat
is two cents higher, but with receipts
of only 3,54.1,032 bushels, against
l,"il)3,4TT the same week last year,
there is little encouragement, be
cause stocks in sight are far beyond
all previous records.
Cotton has declined 'i to .I' cents,
which is again the lowest price ever
recorded and appears to mean a defi
nite decrease in production here
after, as in most of the Southern
states the prices now realized are not
remunerative. For the present the
stocks here ami abroad are large
enough to kill any speculation.
Scarcely airything is doing in
woolen goods for spring delivery, and
the demand fcr fall and winter goods
has nearly disappeared. In general
it is believed the spring orders thus
far are not more than half the usual
quantity.
and among other data on -which it will
be baod ar? the replies of 120 leading
Indian doc-iors and magistrates to a
detailed schedule of questions. A lead
ing English paper .sums up the question
thus: "Tho opium question may, in
fact, be considered dead-killed by the
clear light of independent ubiqtiitious
inquiry from skilled and disinterested
witnesses."

side of the top of the carriage. The
other ends of these levers carry the
counterweight, a mass of metal Aveigh
ing :'7,0l)O pounds, placed in the center
of the carriage, carrying with them the
trunnions of the supporting levers and
raising the counterweight, which is
held in its elevated position by a sys
tem of pawls and ratchets.
AVhen the counterweight is released
It throws the rear ends of the gun-bearing
levers forward and upward. The
buffing cylinders are drawn forward
over their stationary pistons to the
front end of the carriage. At the same
time the breech end of the gun is car
ried up by steel arms, whose upper
ends are pivoted to tin; gun. and whose
lower ends are pivoted to sliding blocks
ivhich move in circular grooves, mid
which may be raised or lowered to give
the desired elevation.
When the discharge occurs the force
of recoil throws back the upper ends of
the levers, which in turn force the cylin
ders to the rear end of the carriage
and raise the counterweight to its orig
inal position, where it is caught and
held by the pawls and ratchets. Nei
ther the gun nor any part of the car
riage is exposed above the projecting
parapet except for the instant of tiring.
The extreme elevation is 1.1 degrees,
the depression is 0 degrees. It is calcu
lated that tho thirds of th" force of the
recoil comes up in the hydraulic cylin
ders, the other third being used in rais
ing the counterweight.
