Special to Tun UKB. | Captain E. L.
Zallnskl , America's high explosive celebrity ,
Is studying things , military and otherwise ,
In Paris ,
The captmn received the Herald corre
spondent thlp cvcnlni : nt the Hotel Byron.
Ho la lookme ns well as possible , and says
ho Is enjoying every moment of his European
experience. Ho is traveling under orders to
obtain such information as may bo obtain
able , regarding certain military questions.
He has already visited England , Holland ,
Belgium , Don mark and Germany , and may
go Into Italy. Coming to his pet tlioino ,
Zallnski said :
' I am convinced that a European war Is
Inevitable , but not In the Immediate future.
One consideration alone issufllctont to main
tain peace for nt least , two years , viz : The
fact that the continental nations will need
that amount of tlmo to offset their arms with
a now style of rifle , and , possibly , with modi
fications of ttiolr artillery , and to meet this
requirement a smokeless powder is neces
sary In both cases. In this connection I may
add that war , instead of being hastened by
the frequent Improvements In its appliances ,
Is actually retarded by them , because when
ever anything of military importauco Is dis
covered the uotlons arc apt to wait before
Halting a conflict until they have
tested and applied to their own use
Buch discoveries as nre constantly being
made. The war may thus bo postponed in
definitely , but , postpone It as they may , the
crisis must come. When the war docs come
it will bo terrible. 1 have Just xvltucsscd the
German manoeuvres at Hanover , ana I as
sure you Vhat had those Mvo army corps done
m earnest what they made a pretense of doIng -
Ing , of the 50,000 who went into that ton
days' action there would not bo 10,000 ready
for service to-day. The rest would have
neon placed hors do combat dead or
wounded. To sueh n degree have tiio modern
improvements in life-destroying machinery
added to the horrors of war. "
"What nro apt to bo the new features , can
tain , of coming wars.1 !
"Quo will bo the smokeless powder , about
which so much ndo has buen made , but I am
not altogether certain as to the future of
this Invention , lu the first nlnco , it is moro
than questionable whether it Is within power
to preserve its qualities long enough to'make
the adoption warrantable , and supposing
that the difficulty can bat overcome , there is
an objection to Its general use in tbo fact
that the manoeuvres of the attacking troops
would no longer bo masked , thus placing
them at a serious disadvantage. In consequence
quence the armies might havo'to carry two
kinds of powder , and this would ,
of course , bo n great encuin-
borance. The small bore rlllo
Is another nSw thing. The European armies
carry rifles to-day with a bore about half
the diameter of those used In our late war ,
and is 73.2 , or 8 Inlllimctors. This results In
on appreciable saving in the size and weight
of the ammunition , so that a soldier who
could lorinorly carry 80 rounds can to-day
carry 120 or HO pounds. "
"Is there any prospect of using high ex
plosive cartridges in rifles ! "
"What would bo the advantage ? A rifle
ball kills or disables surely euou eh as it is.
Wo don't want to blow our enemies' bodies
Into fragments. In fact , wo would rather
wound tliolr men than kill , because every
wounded man Incapacitates ut biust two
others , who have to look utter him , \vheroas
n dead man only needs burying , and oven
that is sometimes omitted. "

seemed to bo taking a leaf from the book of
Ills nephew , the Gorman emperor. There
wore many other interesting little episodes
in that dlspntoh. In fact , the French papers
found it such good reading on Monday
inornlngthat some half a dozen or them

cannons thundered ana almost the ontlra
population assembled to listen to speeches
by some of the leading men of the city and

largest public demonstration ' Pierre , has
over witnessed. Fully tnreo thousand
people stood within hearing ot the orators ns
they talked on the subject of statehood , at
tained ut last , from the high
platform erected on the corner of
Pierre street and Dakota avenue.
S'outh Dakota's capital city has done her
self proud bv Jo-night's ratltlc.Uion , as such

last year over Harrison's election , the open
ing of the Sioux reservation , the Omnibus
bill , getting the Indians' consent to the Sioux
treaty , the location of the capital hero and
the election of United States senators , but
the lust rojolc'ng over South Dakota's state
hood rightly eclipsed them all. Among the
features of the celebration is thu immense
bonfires which blazed from the highest point
of Snake buttu all night , lighting up the
country for miles around. This eminence
stands Just north of the city , on the Missouri
river , and is ODD foot above the water , and is

The Cronln Trial.
CHICAGO , Nov. 4. Thoflrst witness In tno
Cronln trial this morning was Edward Spell-
man , of Pcoria , 111. , who was examined on
behalf ot the prosecution by the state's at
torney. Ho testified that ho was treasurer
of the Great Eastern Distilling company.
"Are you a member of the Clan-na-Gaol or
United Uiothorhood ? " ho was asked.
"I am a member of the United Urothor-
hold , " ho replied.
"Commonly called the Clan-na-Gaoll"
"I Know nothing about that. I do not know
what you call It. "
"Well , you have hoird It called that ! "
"I have heard n good deal said about it
in that way since this trial began. "
' ! You have heard of the Clau-na-Gael
guards ! "
"Yea. " '
"And to bo a member of the Clan-nn-Gaol
guards you must bo a member of the United
Brotherhood ! "
"I do not know anything about that. "
The witness then went on to testify that
ho was the district ofllcor of district No. 10 ,
embracing Illinois and Michigan. Ho
aid ho was the highest officer
in that district , and that
lis duties were laid down by the constitu
tion. The "executives" is a body in itself ,
and its duties are provided by the constitu

tion."Do
"Do you know who constitutes that body
now ? "
Forrest , for the defense , hero entered an
objection to all this testimony respecting the
executive board and its..ollicers.
The court allowed htm to take an execution.
Spolltnan then proceeded to answer the
question und said that ho know the names of
n number of them. Mortimer Seanhm wes
ono , Lawrence Buckley another , and Ron-
ayno of Newark another. The witness then
identified certain correspondence which
passed between himself and Ueggs in regard
to the business of the order.
As the examination of Spcllman proceeded
it became evident that ho was an unwilling
witness and that his testimony was different
from that ho gave before the grand Jury und
from what the prosecution expected , no
said ho met Uccgs April 2 < J-nnd ho said
that the matter referred to in
their correspondence , viz ; that the
proceedings of the trial committee
had been hold in a certain camp in violation
of the rules , had been amicaby settled , The
witness then said ho knew Coughlin , who ,
with a man named Kunze , visited Pcoria a
year nco , and presented u letter of introduc
tion. Ho said ho had no conversation with
Couelilln about Dr. Cronln. This was in
direct contradiction of Spellman's previous
testimony , ana ho was asked by Longneckor
if ho had not said that Coughlin
spoke to him about Dr. Cronla ; There was
a long wrangle over this question which was
finally allowed and Spollmun answered.
"Isaid before the grand Jury , that in con
versation with Coughlin in Pcoria , ho said
Cronm was a , but on
reflection on consultation with ton
other men present , I sent
my attorney to Chicago to notify the district
attorney that I was mistaken. My attorney
was unable to lind Judge Longcneckor and I
came myself specially to Chicago and noti
fied Judco Longeneckor and other counsel
that if they asked mo that questio'n on the
stand I should huvo to deny It In order to do
JUHtico to my ownself and to the facts.
"After I loft the crand Jury room and wont
homo and slept , I felt allured and troubled.
I felt I had possibly done wrong to Coughlin ,
and I went immediately to Mr. Pultons nnd
Mr , Downs nnd told them what
I had sworn to bolero the grand
Jury and that I was bothered about it. They
said : 'Mr. Spellman , you have made a mis
take ; no such conversation teen place. ' "
The witness said In reply to a question
that no had seen Alexander Sullivan before
going to the state's attorney's oflico , but ho
wont there because ho hod been informed
that Sullivan was talking very harshly
about him nnd that his visit was not in con
vection with the cnoo. 'Iho correspondence
between Hoggs and Spellman was then read.
February 18 , Bcggs wrote : "Why , In God's
name , If men are sincere , will

The majority of our men believe the parties

continually.breedinir disorder in tbclr ranks ,
and the day of punishment will come. "
After the reading of the correspondence ,
of which extracts only are given above , a
long examination was conducted by Mr. For
rest. .
During the cross-examination , Mr. Spell-
man was asked if Ucgcs over spoke to him
about the charges against Cronm. He'ro-
pllcd that a great deal was said about Cro-
n in , but to put it upon any one man ho
couldn't ' do at thin time.
"Was it not because of his organization of
other camps I"
"No , " replied Spollman , "because ho was
always anxious to prefer charges. Ho was
a kind of agitator. Ho was an honest man ,
not a bad fellow if ho could have his own
way. If not "
Mr. Hjmes hero objected to any sueh stato' .
ments , ns Cronm is dead and could not
respond.
Spollumn % aid no charges wore made by
Bcggs against any individual , in his olUcla !
position as senior guardian.
Tlio defense moved to exclude from the re
cords all questions and answers in regard to
what was testified to before the grand Jury.
A lengthy debate ensued on this point , in the
course of which It was stated that Spollman
subscribed $50 ! ) towards the arrest and con
viction of the murderers ot Dr. Cronin , and
that ho had paid $100 of this. It was inti
mated that his testimony before the grand
Jury was given when ho was in nno frame of
mind , and that his present attitude resulted
from consultation with friends. The court
finally said the authorities might bo brought
lu on the point at the afternoon session.
The crots-exiiinlnatlou was resumed a
the witness answered a number of questions
regarding the object of the visit of Kunzo to
Peoria with Coughlin. nnd as to whether it
had uny connection with Cronln. Bnollman
said it had not , af. far as ho know , thouuh ho
had no conversation with Kunzo thoro.
Coughlln's vlsjt had no connection with Cro
nln , und a reference of counsel led to the in
ference that it was in connection with the
fight between a Chicago distillery and the
whisky trust.
John A. Mahoney , a Justice of the peace ,
testified that ho was present ut Coon's hall ,
Lake View , in March lust when Cronln In
stituted n camp of the ( lan-na-Gaal. After
the meeting Iceman O'Sullivan ' atkcd the

( O'Sulllvau ) was out of town or sick ono of
tlieso cards would bo presented.
At tbo afternoon session Judge McConnol
said ho considered the testimony of Spellman
in controversy and decided to exclude it.
Mrs. Addla J. Farrar testified as to a con
versation between herself nnd O'tiullivun
after Cronfn's body was found ,
Bho asked O'Bulllvau ' was It not a tcrriblo
murder. Tbo iceman hesitated a mouioo

Minor Parties Overshadowed.
CINCINNATI , Nov. 4. The campaign which
closed to-night has been an exciting ono.
Whllo the Dlatforma of both parties laid
down principles relating the tariff and
other matters , the canvass'hns been marked
with much personal bitterness. The contest
was recognized pretty generally as cou fined
to the two great parties ,
Tbo labor party has made -scarcely an ef
fort to push its ticket. >
The prohibition party ' .tins not given as
much attention to the b'aavass as usual. ,
The indications are.that' the voto'ln'the
state will fall below that of .last . .year. Both
parties are claiming the state by almost the
samn figures 15,000 to 20,000 plurality.
Thcro is some personal objection to
Forakor in Cincinnati , Cleveland and other
points , growing out of his appointments , and
no is likely to run below the rest of the
ticket.
The Enquirer ( dem : ) expresses confidence
in a brilliant victory for the whole ticket ,
and of democratic majorities In both branches
of the general assembly.
The Commercial Gazette ( rep. ) soys the
republicans nro fooling hearty over the out
look at the close of the ' .campaign ; that thov
need the victory that is
Just coming tomorrow

Tlio Interest Centura In the Balloting
for i ho LiC < ; lFilnturp.
NEW YOUK , Nov. 4.Th0 greatest interest
in the election to morrow centers In the bal-
lotlntr for the legislature ; The republicans
had a majority in the Idstlogislaturoof about
forty on Joint ballot. It 1 % their ambition to
increase It to two-thirds majority so it will
bo possible to pass measures over the demo
cratic governor's vetoes. ' On tlio other band
the democrats hope to-rcduco the republican
majority , and if possible to wipe it out en
tirely.
The state ofllcers to bo chosen are the sec
retary of state , comptroller , state treasurer ,
attorney general , statd engineer and Judge
of the court of appeals.
As the state is considered' naturally demo
cratic , and no Issues have arisen to divert
votes in largo numbers , there is reason in
tbo cl im of the democratic leaders thit the
state ticket is to be successful , although the
republican leaders are very hopeful.
In New York city the situation is compli
cated by n singular combination made be
tween the county democracy and the repub
licans to defeat the Tammany hall ticket ,
nnd the impression prevails that this will
lead to n goad deal of trading , and It already
has been charged that moro or less coloniza
tion of voters has been indulged in.
The Pennsylvania Contest.

PHILADELPHIA , Nov. 4. The only officer
to bo voted for In Pennsylvania to-morrow
Is tlio successor to State Treasurer ilnrt.
There are tbrco candidates In the field , a re
publican , a democrat and n prohibitionist.
Advices from nil parts of the state indicate
the vote will ho light. The democrats claim
the republican majority will bo greatly re
duced , while tlio republicans are confident
their majority will bu nbaut ns heretofore.
In Maryland.
BAi.TiMonE , Nov. 4. T-o-inorrow the bi

Just ns soon ns the results of the Ohio
campaign are known Mnjor Molvintoy Is ex
pected to como hero nnd onon his speaker-
shlphoadmiartors. And well ho may hasten
to do so. Tom Heed , his most prominent
opponent , has permitted no grass _ to grow
under his feet this summer. Ho went out
on the Pacific slope and captured t < nrt of
the California delegation , helped Oregon
and got the vote of Hormiin , her only con-
grcssman , then tooK the sttj nip in Montana
nnd scoured the support ot Carter , the mem
ber of congress from that now state. Then
"your uncle Tom" has made a careful canvass
of Now England nnd Now York , and It Is
reported hero that very few of Its members
will got uway'from him. There Is an Im
pression among his friends hero that Major
MoKlnloy Is depending upon his prestige to
carry him through. To-day's Post has this
nniong n lot of spcakorship gossip :
"On the first ballot It Is conceded
that Heed nnd McKlnloy will bo
the leaders. The suuportors of the
former muko the broad claim that ho Is al
ready elected and that after the complimen
tary votes have been cast there vill bo no
ono eKe In the ruco. The argument ad
vanced is that ho can bo made speaker with
out belittling nny ofthe other candidates.
To bo beaten by the leader of the party In
the house for the past six yours , whoso
leadership in that time has been unchnl-
lonccd , would give no occasion for Jeulousy
on anybody's part and that naturally when
any of tbo other candidates withdraw from
the race they will throw their streimth for
Keed In preference to having it go else
where. "
If the claims of Hood's friends nro not un
founded , and ho becomes speaker , there are
still places of high honor for these who have
entered the contest against him. Major
McKlnlov , who has the distinction of being
the chief exponent of the tariff as viewed
from the republican standpoint , nnd who
prepared the tariff ulank In the lust national
platform , is naturally the most prominent
suggestion for chairman of the committee on
ways and means. He would undoubtedly be
chosen for that position in the contingency
of Uced's election If It were not. for the claim
of "Pig Iron" Kelly for the honor. Judge
Kelly was the last republican chairman of
that committee nnd has already announced
that bo expects the place under any republi
can speaker.
AllMT nr.OltOANlZATION.
So much has been said by members of con
gress and civilians generally about the reor
ganization of the army that there can i > o little
tlo , if nny , doubt of the passasjo of n bill at
the approaching session of congress which
will maito material aud important changes in
the ran if and file.
Th'o 'secretary of war and the general of
the army , together with nearly all the promi
nent brigadiers and colonels , have recently
expressed.lhomBolvcsi > ubllely or officially , in'
reference to desertions from the army , und
have stated that something must be dor.o to
inspire each soldier with an esprit do corps
by giving him some Incentive intended to
bring out a Uudable ambition. The recruit
ing service is blamed for much of the trouble
resulting in desertions. To-day's Post in
discussing the question says on this point :
'Tno fact is our armv is modeled to too
great an extent on on aristocratic European
typo that is fading rfut olsowhere. Our of
ficers must como nearer to their men and become -
come Interested in what they do and feel.
"Discipline instead of a degrading
snobbishness must become altogether a mat
ter of official and regulated oboyanco. Then
if the pay of n soldier were raised to $20 n
month , It his food and clothing were im
proved , if his duties were so defined that ho
could have regular leisure for mental culti
vation and if no could hopa that attention to
duty and self-culture would win for him
promotion wo tnuy bo sure there would bo
fewer desertions. Uflttor material would bo
recruited and the now soldiers would huve
to bo treated as men not us menials. "
lNI'iiCE3TlU : IN THE ELECTIONS.
The deepest interest is felt in administra
tion circles in the issue of to-morrow's ' elec
tions.
Iho white house and all the executive de
partments have government operators , and
their wirfs uro all connected with these of
the Associated press and thu United press ,
so that the president and every member of
his cabinet is kept in constant communica
tion with the news centers.
The administration very naturally cher
ishes the earnest hope that to-morrow will
bring forth the unqualified endorsements of
the policy nursuod by President Harrison in
the shape of rousing republican victories. In
Virginia , particularly , Mr. Harrison takes
deep Interest , and he will bo kept constantly
advised all day of the progress of the voting.
SOUTH IIAKOTANS CIIOOSK SEATS.
* South Dakota's senators to-day chose their
scats on the floor of the senate.
Their selections give ono a very good idea
of how the other half dozen now state sena
tors will bo seated. Both of the South Da
kota senators selected chairs at the extreme
southeast wing of the republican side. Sena
tor Moody , who is twelve or fourteen years
the senior of his colleague , and whoso beard
und hair are snow white , will sit nt the right
of Senator Chandler , of New Hampshire ,
while Immediately to Mr. Chandler's left ,
and further around toward the center
aisle , are seated Messrs. Stanford , of Cali
fornia , and Stewart , of Nevada.
Senator Pettlgrow selected the scat to the
right of Mr. Moody , so the two South Da
kota senators will sit together. There will bent
nt least four moro men from iho now states
seated on the republican side , and if Mon
tana goes republican tbcro will bo six , which
may make it necessary for some moro re
publicans to ( , ' 0 over on the democratic side ,
whcio there is room. Senator lilair , who Is
Mr. Chandler's colleague , took a chair on
the democratic , side a couple of years ago ,
althouuh ho U u very ardent republican. Ho
is better situated there. Ho is next to the
center aisle , and at the extreme southeast
corner of the democratic wing. There are
three vacant chairs In the extreme northern
part of the republican side much nearer the
presiding officer than these selected by ttio
South DukuU senators to-day , but they do
not give as good a view of the senate , the
proceedings and the eallories. These will.
bo taken by the accessions from North
Dakota and Washington , In tlio selections
of seats tlio first who como are the first
served.

Gen. Ilrcokcni'ldito I'resonts Some
Recommendations.
WASHINGTON , Nov. 4 , Inspector General
Hrcckenridgp , ot the nrmv , in his annual
report devotes considerable sp.ico to the
much motncd question of desertion. He says
in parti
Wo should first render it Inexcusable and
then tnnko It Impossible and bo always hu
mane. Our methods of enlistment and thu
falhu-o to Insure nrrcU mav not promote hut
apparently have failed to guard ntmlust this
crime. " *
General Hreckonrldgo argues in favor of
the inorg rigid experiment , of discipline and
the laws already in force ugrlnst desertion.
It should be made easier to leave the service
honorably than dishonorably and u typo
should bo enlisted who don't care to dosort.
A change Is recommended lu the manner
of paying the officers nnd men. General
Hrcckcurldgo thinks the officers In the nrmy
should be promoted for leiicth
of servlco as well ns for merit
The inspectors unite in reporting that the
tone and bearing of the enlisted men Is con
stantly improving.
It Is recommended that measures bo taken
to secure the improvement of noncommissioned
sioned o Ulcers , such us increasing their uav ,
assembling them for Instructions , etc. lie
recommends the adoption of the thrco bat
talion organbatlon for infantry regiments ;
that the line bo given thu sumo chance for
promotion us the staff ; the rearmament of
the forces and the restoratioa of the rank of
lieutenant General.
At forty-three military educational Institu
tions in the country there are 13,1181 students ,
of whom fi.TD.I attend military Instructions.
The report says that in the face of many
difficulties tlio average Instruction of the
army has retained its excellence , and the
recent camps have added efficiency and
thoroughness to Instruction in largo bodies ,
which wus lacking before.

UNOCCUPIED PUBLIC LANDS.
Ttio Importance of Homo Sort of
Tenure Ur od Latter tiny Saints
Wctldcd to I'olyjjniiuI'lio
Publlu SuliooU Won It.
T ho .Mormon Problem.
WASHINGTON , Nov. 4. Governor Thomas ,
of Utah territory , lu his annual repoct , says
that during the last nine years the foreign
born population has boon Increased by Mor-
uion immigration by l,09l. ( !
Upon the subject of unoocuulocl tmbllo
lands , t'io ' governor says , the question of
what the government nhould do with the
vast traols ot land which can b < i used only
for grazing purpose * is assuming vital Im
portance throughout the west. Under the
present conditions unoccupied lands nro
used by persons engaged In stock raising ,
and us there is no harmony of Interests
among them there is frequent conflict be
tween clashing interests. The governor ]
of the opinion that If the government would
provide some way by which persons engaged
in stock raUlngeouid acquire tltlo to the
gni7lng lands which can never bo used for
agricultural purposes , It , would roniovo ono
of the most serious drawbacks to the growth
of the stock Industry and promote the settle
ment of the country. Grazing nnd mountain
lands constitute nearly Rovon-otghlhu of the
entire land urea of the territory.
In the eour-io of his report upon public nnd
denominational schools the governor says i
"Whilo Utah has a very fair system ) of pub-
Ho schools , they fall far short of what they
should bo. The tax collected for the support
of schools docs not pav ouu'half the expense
of maintaining them , consequently the
pupils must pay tuition fees or the schools
would bo closed. In many of the uooror
districts the children are denied school
privileges for many mouths of the year. I
atn led to bollovu that there is no prospect
that this will bo changed , by the fact that
the Mormons nro prcnutlng for denomina
tional schools , In which their children may
bo taught Mormon theology in addition to
tno ordinary branches of education. State
or county ncadomies hnvo been established
under church auspices and in some school
districts Mormon children Imvo boon with
drawn trotn the public schools and placed In
the church schools. "
The governor quotes from a loiter written
by President Woodruff , of the Mormon
church , to show that it is the purpose ot the
church to establish these church schools. la
It Woodruff says :
"Our children , If loft , to the training they
receive in those ( public ) schools , will grow
entirely ignorant of those principles of sal
vation for which the Latter Day Saints made
so many sacrifices. To permit this condition
of things to exist lunonir us would bo crimi
nal. "
Uemnrklng upon this letter the governor
a ays It Is plain the church has decided to
take its place as nu enemy of the public
school system nnd of the principles which
are at its foundation.
Speaking of the geiitlln strontrth in
the territory , the governor says : "The time
may como when the gentiles will bo in the
majority , but Itwill , bo many years hpnco ,
Thu fact Is that outside of ball Lake und
Oudon the gcntllo population is found in the
mining camps and in thu smaller railroad
towns. "
The governor writes nt length Upon the
nresent attitude of the Mormon people.
Tney Imvo accepted the doctrine of poly
gamy , ho says , und will probably adhere to
it as long us they live. They accept the
doctrine of plural marriage In all sincerity
an a radical and necessary part of their reli
gion. The Mormon church , the governor
says , is heavily engaged In politics , nnd adds ;
"I don'l hesitate to say that any temporizing
izing policy which leaves the church In a
position to control the political policy of the
territory is only delaying the final settle
ment und that the future legislation should
bo aimed at the. political power of the
church , which has been the mam pillar of
the church in Utah. "

Chief Blnyca Strongly Opposed toSelt-
int ; It to the Government.
KANSAS CITV , Nov. 4. A special from
Talcqunii , Indian Territory , contains a copy
of thu annual message delivered by Chief
Mayes to-day to the Cherokee council. 'Ihot
portion which relates to the sale of the
Chorukeo outlet recommends that tno lands
ho not ceded to thu government of the United
States , except it bo donu by u change of the
constitution of the Cherokee nation. Ho
holds that tbo constitution forbids the
sale of the lands to any ono for
any reason. Ho licenses the government of
dealing unfairly with the Indians , and states
his belief that the government has no right
to force the Indians to sell their lands. A
changu In the constitution can only bo made
by submitting the question to u vote of the
nation , und that will have to bo done by
councils authorizing Chief Maycs to so sub
mit it. Interviews with members of the
council on the question of the sale of the
strip show that the majority of these now *
on the ground nre opposed to it.
General Fulrchild ami Judge Wilson , of
tlio Cherokee commission , were present , also
a big lobby of cattle men.
