MO-LEAN , the crank who recently shot at Queen Victoria , haa boon tried and promptly acquitted on the ground of insanity. This will bo a serious disappointment to the culprit , who is said to bo as fond of notoriety as Ouitoau. r WOUBN may bo interested in knowing - ing that the supreme court of Now "York has decided that wives in that .state are henceforth entitled to the privilege of suing their husbands for damages in case of assaults and bat- iery'or slander.

JIM LAIUD'S Juniata and Has tings papers are much exorcised over the editorial conduct of THE BEH which is altogether1 too * utspokon on the monopoly issue to suit their can- didatofor congress.Vo confess wo have not boon able to construct a congres sional race truck on which any candidate could successfully ride two horses in opposite directions at the same timo. J TJDQK KINNEY noTor vrill bo pardoned - donod by the loading democratic organ of Nebraska for allowing the , democratic members of the last legis lature to compliment him with their votes for the honorable position of United States senator. The editor of the democratic organ had promised these democratic rotes to a preferred republican 'fpoworand preatigo" can didate , and. Judge Kinn6y will never hoar the lost of it. In this counopticm it is decidedly in accord with the eternal fitness of things that Dr. Mil ler , who has boon a silent partner in army and Indian trailer/ships / be stowed upon democrats by General Grant should berate Judge Kimioj for accepting an interest in an Indian tradcrship under Garliold or Arthur The president is to be invited to at tend the opening of the Denver in I dustrial exposition. Ho ought to I accept and ought to attend , for to the T liest of our knowledge General Arthur has never boon west of the Allcghon- ies , and at any rate west ot the Mia f , niasippi , and the trip would do bin. U good , and convince him that the Uni Ua ted States comprises wore country o than can be seen from the tetwer ol iho city hall in Now York , or even P from the cupola of the capital in ft Washington. [ Kansas City Times. ftP fttl PBESIDENT Aimitm travelled weat tl , of the Mississippi when Kansas City tlol VIM a moro village. Ho crossed the Missouri and entered blooding Kan 5P' 5 BOB as far back as 1850 , and there mot P' ' with many exciting-adventures and in P'ti cidents in the border war. Ho visited la Omaha in the spring of 1857 with a laP' ' view of locating hero and remained a Bl month , during which time as ho has Bldi diat recently related to , the editor of Tun at BEE , ho made the acquaintance of nearly all the early settlers of Omaha x nd Florence , Should he decide to til revisit this city , he will meet with a tilMl cordial reception. 00 AT LAST , The proclamation of Govorno : Nance , convening the legislature ir extra session , has been issued at lost , The full text of the call appears inoui telegraphic columns , The call includci all the subjects of importance that require quire legislative action and some upor which , the legislature may , porlmpn conclude to take no action. The special session is called foi Wednesday , May ICth , and it is safe to predict the legislature will not nd journ before the first of Juno. Hat the Bcs < uon been called six weeks 01 two months ago , as was generally > orally desired the agony would long since have bcon over. The congressional apportionment will ba the great bono of contention of the session , and other legislation will bo merely incidental. The proposed amendments to the city charter of Omaha which wore agreed on by the Douglas county delegation weeks aao will doubtless bo enacted during the first week of the session. If the spe cial bond election is promptly called wo may begin paving before the 4th of July. The militia expense bills for putting down the so-called riot in Omaha will draw out some decidedly interesting debates over the hasty and ill-considered use of troops. All in all , the session promises to bo quite interesting. ANTI-MONOPOLY SENTIMENT. The growth of public sentiment igainst the menace of monopoly has uoro than kept pace with the extension ) f monopoly power througn consolida- iioiia of mammoth corporations. The jueslion cf restricting the dangerous > ewer , and remedying the outrageous ibiisoo of corporate monopolies is now 1m leading tliumo of discussion in iviry state in the union. It is agi ittcd in the faim house , and discussed n the work shop and counting' room. ? m years ago every man who dared to aiso his voice against the railroad obbors was denounced as a danger- us character , and a fire brand in acioly. To-day so mighty has boon ! io change wrought by nn vor growinz public sentiment that iie monopolists are themselves put a the defensive and compelled to beg > r quarter from the people whom icy can no longer bribe , cajole and aodwink. And what has brought lout this marvelous change in pub- 3 aontimont ? The public press at t hung back from entering upon a $ ht which seemed hopeless. Men of isiness shrank from committing lomsolvos to a policy of outspoken istility to the crimes of common irricrs , upon whcm they were do- jndont to a greater or less degree ir their mercantile prosperity. Cor- inly the hundreds of thousands of lilroad employes were not the ; cn to inaugurate a movement arouse public sentiment [ ainst their employers. It remained > r the agricultural classes of the lunlry who suffered most from the ick routing policy of the railroad ibbors to first raise their voices ; ainst the monopoly minions and icy did so with no uncertain sound , hey were supported by a few honest id fearless journals who were not idor corporation control. If the ango had fulfilled no other end lan merely evidencing the vigorous smand of our farmers for relief from io burdens winch oppressed them , it ould have done excellent service. ' lie facts which they presented could iither bo ridiculed or ar- icd away , and public senti ent , slow to express itrolf , adually came to understand the ingor which menaced the greatest anon of industry of the nation. lie people bepon to see that the untry was becoming diudod into ro classes , ono lolonging to and con- oiled by the monopolies and the her compelled to submit to their ntrol. Gigantic considerations of pjlal were s ; > riigtng up on every , nd ; a toiidonoy to concentrate nnd nsolidalo wealth by monopolizing o wealth resources of the nation i > everywhere apparent. It was an that trade , commerce , industry ; ialation itself suffered under the n of monopoly and legislatures ire bribed and courts purchased to jister the tyranical decrees of these idal harona of the nineteenth cent- y. Voiced by the press , now > used to the danger which throat ed every interest of the country , blio opinion began to make itself t. Pivo of our states have already le wed laws restricting and controling 3 railroada. Billa to the same act are pending in three others , ileovory indication sustains the it lief that the question whether the itBf > plo ahall control the railroada or 0' > railroads the people , will enter IE goly into the next IECl presidential cam- Cl gn. Congress ia fooling the pros- ClII ClW 0 of a public opinion which is II 1y growing in force as now outrages IIdi 1 now evils the dihi on part of the mon- hi ily managers are uncovered apd re. hiSi tod. There ia a feeling that the Sifii o for an earnext and vigorous cam- fiiP jn on the part of the people against er potato monopolies haa come. That fit feeling is well expressed in the follow ing extract from The Brooklyn "Eagle There is a pretty general feeling tha the continent of America was not dit covered by Columbus , and civil libert ; established by the Fathers of the Re public , to the end that fifty million of people might bo made tributary i a band of railroad magnates , or thn frtnnorg , artisans and merchants migh by hard work and keen competition rnirio up a dozen Vanclorbilts , wit ) oich several hundred millions of del Jars. These who entertain this feel ing have become persuaded that tin time has arrivnd for the induatrioui masses ot thiscountry to protect them solvcsjifthoyoverintcndtodoso. Itwi certainly not bo easier after the ad vcrsary has jrrown stronger. In thii contest every delay is to the disad vantage of the people. Lot the issue bo deferred for a few years , and noth ing but a miracle or a revolution ai violent ns thnt of Franco overthrow the oppression. Uf all misleading delusions , there is none moro mis chicvous than the notion that populai ouffrago and pppulai power arc synonymous. Given the moans ol bribing multitudes , of intimidating others , of wrecking opponents coupiet with actual . the possescloni/i. govern' mcnt , and adverse sentiment must be paralyzed. If the suffrage is to bo oui salvation , it must bo applied sharplj while there are still odds on the un- bought and untorrorizod manhood. DISAPPEARING INVEST MENTS. There ia a loud complaint in eastern financial circles that means for legiti mate investment are becoming scarcer and that money which ought to be accumulating wealth is lying uselessly piled up in bank vaults and private safes. The same state of affairs ex ists to-day in Now York which so worried the financiers of London two years ago. Government bonds have advanced BO rapidly that the pro- ilium which must bo paid for their purchase almost cats up the interest. The continued manipulation and stock jobbing in railroad securities have : rcated a profound distrust for this jlass of investment. Mon hesitate n entrusting their money to com- xtnica whom ns it has well been said 'the plans , the whims or ncods of a ingle man can cause fluctuations finch will wipe out three yoar'o intcr- st in a week. " States and cities are apidly paying off their debts and ailing in heir bonds. Where aix ears ago five per cunt , interest boar- ig securities of a municipial nature euld h vo gone bogging four per jnts. are eagerly accepted , and the ituro solvency of towns and cities is otjso closely inquired into as formerly hero a bond bearing five or six per > r.t in interest is placed on the larkot. Financial journals are anxiously isoussing the future of investments , ho usual openings seem to bo clos- ig , and the only remedy that pro mts itself is the employment of cap- al in now fields. There are other id as safe means of investment in 10 * undeveloped resources of the mntry. The euro for the prevailing implant must como not from now lilroads with their watered stocks , hose value is ever subject to fho hims and mnnipulaxions of corrupt lyators. It will bo found iu the oning , on a great scale , of raw pro- action to aggregate investment. Un- iltivated millions of acred enl vait the application of wealth an , bor to give munificent returns fete to muBclo and monog expended teir development. Within the las lirty years Franco has doubled he heat product aa the result of hlg iltivation of her soil , induced by th roper expenditure of money , and th mo may not be for distant when ou oat capitalists will BOO in agricultur i a largo scale a profitable oponin r the wealth which they hesitate t. vest in other and moro perilous un irtakings. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. The lost annual election of th malm fire department resulted in . oak up. A majority of three vol itcor companies , which also was a ajoiity of the whole department ithdrow before any candidate fee o chief had boon elected. Ont mp.uiy and fragments of the other mainod and went through the form an flection. Thia faction elected r. Welsh and presented hia name to 0 mayor for appointment. The othe. mpanies filed a protest against this oico , asked the mayor to nominati mobody who hod not been i , candi to , and pledged their support to the > n the mayor nnd the council would a fit to appoint. Under the ciroum- incoB Mayor had Boyd but ono urso to pursue , and that was to minato a man who had no part in a disgraceful scramble for the posi- n of fire chief. At the last meeting of the council 3 mayor nominated John W. But- 1 and hia nomination was confirmed lOroupon a apocial mooting of No. 2 ro King Engine Co. was called and najorlty cf that company votod'tluT members hold aloof from aotlvo vice fpr ono year. This courao was Gently do.ided upon because the yor did not BOO fit to ratify their ) ice , Mr. Welsh. Perhaps it ia 11 that thia course was taken , la much bettor that ovary affected fireman ahall lay off than ro the city the riak run of a con. t or mutiny at aomo dangerous where Hfo and property would do- id upon active support and co-op- tlon ot every fireman with the chief , lucre hai b * ndl cord and wrangling in the department fo years , and a rivalry had sprung U ] between companies and their pot can dictates which boded no good totho city This condition of affairs had fo comi to an end aomo time , and wo nro per haps as well prepared to face thi trouble novr as ever. The power o the mayor and council to appoint tin fire chief nobody disputes. Mr. Butler lor has bcon appointed and ho ahoulc have the cheerful support of ovcrj nctivo fireman ns long as ho remain : at the head of the department , If any fireman is unwilling to do nc tivo duty under Mr. Butler ho hat bettor withdraw , ntid lot somobodj else take his place. A compact and harmonious force , oven with reduced numbers , will bo much snf or and more efficient thnna largo body of disaffected mon. One thing is self-evident. The whole department must bo rcorgan izod aa soon na possible. There should bo for the protection of the city an increase of hose carts and a reduc tion in the number of steamers. Every ward ought to have at least ono hoao cart , and tro should remain n the business center. The volun teer companies that am disposed to servo should to recruited with active mon , and there should bo bettor discipline - ciplino all along the lino. Those sug gestions are made in the interest of and for the good of the city. HK. MAHONE is having trouble in keeping his Virginia readjuatora in lino. The legislature , which was supposed to have a working road- ju tor majority , failed to pass their roapportionraont bill through the state aonato and the sohomo by which they had confidently hoped to secure eight out of the tort congressmen , fell to the ground. Tour roadjustors and ono straight-out republican voted with the democrats against the bill. Mr. Mahono must distribute patron age more evenly if ho expects to hold his own in the Old Dominion.

[ Oourant. GOSSIP ABOUT THE PRESIDENT Matrimonial Intentions Religious Prodllectlona Arthur's Disgust. Washington Special to Cincinnati Commcrc'al. ' There is a good deal of gossip going ; ho rounds concerning President Ar- thur'a matrimonial intentions. It ia a favorite topic of conversation in certain social circles , where the opirp on pravaila that it will not bo a great vhilo before the president will change lis condition of life. I mot a lady re cently who know the prcaidont'a wife n her girlhood , and who describee lor as a lovely girl with brown hair nnd eyes , a daughter of Captain Herndon - don , of Fredericksburg , Va. , who commanded the ill-fated Pacific mail itcamor Central America , and "was est with her. Mra Herndon , after icr husband's death , went to Now York to live , and there Arthur mot and married her daughter Alice , whose picture hangs over the president's bed at the white hcuse. "There ia this to Bay of President Arthur , " said a lady whose name was conspicious in society circlea during the Hayes gimo. "No other man I know of could maintain hia social position with the extreme good taste that Mr. Arthur does without a lady' issistaneo. Ho has more tact tha" lialf the women in the country , an _ ia an expert in Baying these little things , which , though trivial in them- lolves , go ao far toward eatabliahing mccosa in Washington. A lady now n Waahington , but who lives on the Hudson near New York City , where ler husband know Mn Arthur many ? eara ago , was recently presented to ; he president , who delighted her by laying , 'Ah , Mrs. Brownstone , I ro- nember your husband very well in- leod. I now see why he used to hurry iff up the Hudson BO frequently , and rhy ho seemed BO much benefited by lia tripa.1 Of course the lady waa > leased to think the president remem- > ered her husband so well , and when- ivor our little club meets aome- > ody is called on to tell her ixporionco with the president. " President Arthur is a frequent at- ondant at St. John's Episcopal ihurch , which stands just across the > ark from the white house , and which iaa always been a fashionable place of vorship. It is ono of the oldest ihuroli edifices in Waahinijton , and esombles an old Virginia court house nero than an Episcopal church It s impossible , to rent a pew for eve or money now , and has been all rinter. The government in early lays always had a pew there , but hero has been no Episcopalian presi- lent for so long that President Ar- hur pays for his own. The little Jampbollito church , was so thronged luring President Garfiold'a reign , tas droppeo. out of sight again , al- hough the Garfield pow , whore hia saasain used to watch him through bo window , is still an object of curi- aity to a few strangers. President Arthur ia said to have on very much disgusted with the ublic reception hold at the white ouso during General Grant's visit , nd it is reported that his receptions erpafter will only bo attended by ivited guests. This is not likely to icot with much popularity. The ooplo love to go to the white house nd look about , for they feel and often laim that this is duo them , bpcauso icy own the house and the president ocs not. The damage done to the uilding by last week's crush waasudi- iont to disgust one , however , and a iw moro like it would bo disastrous ) the elegant furniture and the deco- ttions which have recently been com- letod. Sovcral of the largo double oors had to bu entirely scraped and i varnished in order to obliterate the iratches made by the coat buttons , itvolry , oto. , on the clothing of the owds that wore squeezed through lem. Winding up "Stewart'a. " A gentleman who was for many 'ura ' in the employ of A. T. Stewart , it loft the concern run in his name ithin the past year , and is now with rival firm , said to an Evening Peat porter : When I waa with Stewart , I had argo for years of the shawl depart * ont. Every morning Mr. Stewart snt through the department and ido his critscisms to mo. If a cost- shawl had remained on exhibition > ro than a few weeks without find- j a buyer , ho was sure to notice and mid say to mo in hia querulous wl ; "Mr. , I aoo you have it shawl still. Why can't you sell Ia it marked too high ? What i you get for ill" If I said that it would soil at $100 would answer , "Well , it cost me 3 , but mark it down to $90 , " and it s the tune way with every article tha building ; ho know if the stuff a lolling u it ought to , and what it 1 cost him. Now look at the change. I don't suppose that Mr Hilton knows the first cost of to kinds of goods out of the ton thous and offered for sale in his store. An other point of importance was th care which Stewart looked after th salesmen ho employed. Ho came tome mo ono morning , and , pointing out s young man , said , "Mr. M , who is that young man there ? Ho wear too big diamonds bigger than I can afford. Don't let mo see him here again. " By walking rapidly througl the most crowded part of the store h could tell how each clerk was doin his duty. From the number ot Stewart sales men who apply to us wo have knowr for the last three years that a con slant shrinkage in their business wa going on. Ono of their salesmen whc was in hero this morning trying tc find a berth before he is dismissed sau that when Stewart died there were 2 ! men employed at his counter the dress-goods department. Now there are eight mon loft and not enough fo thorn to do. There wcro 2,200 hand in the retail store in 187G ; now thorc are 800. I BOO that the papers say n groa deal about the effects of Hilton's anti Jewish policy , but I do not believe that the patronage of any ono class or the loss of it , would seriously hoi ; orlmrt such a house. What injuroe the business far moro was Mr. Hil ton's course in connection with the Women's Homo now the Park avenue hotel. Wo have many good customers on our booVs who transferred their account to us sean after that affair. " Other persons wl o wore consultot attributed the decline of the groa Stewart business largely to the hostil ity of the Jews to Judge Hilton. Frank James OrffanUmg a Gang o Desperados to Aveuga Hia Brother's Death. At Wilson , K s , Special to The Chicago Tribune The smoke from the revolver whicl laid Jesse James low has cleared away and the consequent excitement ha partially died out. The centre of at traction connected with the tragedy is neither the incendiary editorial o Je > hn Edwards , the outlaw's widow , nor the spot which holds him in Kearney , but is transferred to another portion of the state , being the St. Joseph jail and Robert and Charles Ford within its walls. After a moment the people recovered from the shook , and yet with the satisfaction which accompanied the bullet's sound it was conceded thai the simple spilling of one man's blood would c.iuso the death of every man connected with the killing of the lead er of the band of outlaws Kansas City would fain blush to recognize. Your correspondent has come into the knowledge of facts which positively establish the theory that Frank James is at the head of a movement which has for its aim the extermination of all whoso names are associated with the death. The fact is known to a few that Frank James passed through Atchison Friday , going southwest , having four people with him ; that DH the same day Mrs. Jesse James tvent to Kansas City Yesterday Frank James returned from a myste rious visit , followed by the same pals. My informant states that the gang of tvhich Frank James will now take the lead is taken from that section of the jpuntry In the Missouri bottoms oppo lite hero which produced Polk Wells , Bill Norris , Jim Dougherty , John Pomfrey , and many others , composed jf tha same class and material , hav- ng for its purpose the avenging of the leath of Jesse James and other law- ess deeds. To this gang will bo added i few tried mountain outlaws that ? rank James picked up during i residence for some time in Now Mex- co on a small sheep ranch. Robert ind Charles Ford are never to enjoy i moment's peaca , no matter what the id vice or assuranca fromGov. Critton- len. These brothers begin where lesso James left off. They will bo mntod and hounded as persistently is ho was. Were the the reward the , re supposed to obtain twenty time 50,000 , it will not purchase ono day est , ono peaceful meal , or blesae light. These boys are not alone t ) o removed , but all informants an ritnesfos in Cracker Neck. Thes leath-avongera are backed by th ntiro constituency of Jesse * James ? his is the plan aa made known no who should know. Trouble Saved.
