WASHINGTON. IX p. , Nov. 0. )
In ofllcml circles the result of tho-elec
tions yesterday is not rofrurdod ns nationally
important.
The Issues In every state wcro local. General -
oral Mahono has simply demonstrated that
the bourbons have sufHolent hatred for the
ncpro nud himself to load thorn to the most
outrageous suoprcssion of votes , Intimida
tion nnd fraud , nnd there was no Incotisidor-
able defection of the Wlso element of the
party. The issue forced by the old line
party Micro was Mahono atid antl-Mahonc.
Not a nlnBlo national question was Involved
and not a man in Virginia who worlcod far
the dafuai of the republican leader would
listen to any other Issue than the personal
one.
one.Tho lesson which the result teactms IB na
tional , It Is true , involving as it docs the
franchise of the black man , but the battle
which brought it about was foujht upon
personal and local grounds.
Governor Forulcer's ' administration nnd
the question of'a third term for a chief
magistrate in that stuto wore the issues in
Ohio. The tariff , civil service reform nnd
the many othnr plnnhs of the republican
*
national platform were not iu sight during
the heat of the battle which waged for n
month or moro. tn addition , especially in
Cincinnati , the liquor lords throw their
business und their motiny and efforts on the
side of democracy with characteristic ar-
rofranca and malignancy.
The result in loxvn creates moro surprise
hero thnn the news from any other state ,
for the simple reason that. Urn questions be
fore the pcoplo therewcro in Washington
obscnrc , and the further reason , that lowu
is regarded na n republican stronghold that
cannot bo broken into by the enemy under
any conditions or circumstances. The ex
tension of the law controlling the liquor
trafllc to n point beyond the cndurnnco of
the majority , and n republican ennUidnto for
governor who did not meet the approval of
the granger clement , conspired to bring
nbout n democratic victory.
To ttill ; of Ohio nnd Indiana being demo
cratic on the fundamental Issues thut divide
parties is to talk nonst'nso.
In Massachusetts , New York , and all states
where there wcro elections hold yosderday.
local and especially porsounl issues con
trolled the votmc. Had everything KOHO re
publican no attempt would have been mail ate
to call it a republican victory beyond state
lines. In only ono instance has even the
most rabid democrat made nny effort to con
nect the election with President Harrison's
administration.
Now that the work is over some democrats
claim that Mahono was the tidmlnlstration's
candidate. Ibis said by them thatMnhone
was assisted by President Harrison und his
friends tu secure tlio nomination nnd helVed
by all possible moans in the campaign. To
the extent of a hearty endorsement , of n good
republican this is true. President Harrison
doubtless endorsed General Mationo's can
didacy in this sense and hoped
for bis election. Ho would have done this
had any ono of tlio thousands of good repub
licans in the Old Dominion been at the head
of the ticket. But it is as absurd even for the
purposes of this claim to title tno lender of
the Virginia republican campaign "tho ad-
ministration's candidate" as it would bu to
give the same title totlio candidates in lowu ,
.Massachusetts or any of the other states.
Those wtift Imvo made themselves familiar
with the political history of Ohio arc not at
all surprised at the result. The democrats
have carried tiio atato without interruption
ut tlio election immediately following the
selection of a republican president for many
years. Thurman , Pcndloton and Payne
have been aent to the senate without a brca > c
in tne senate , without a break in the record ,
aa a result of the "oft year" elections
parallel tn that of yesterday. It is but a con
tinuation of the history Ohio has been
making ever since the war , nnd there Is no
significance in it further thnn the continu-
aucn of n democrat In the United States
sonata as a colleague to Shormau. Helms
had such a colleague for the past twenty-
four years.
A. DI'.ATII BLOW.
A death blow has probably been dealt the
proposition to enact a federal election law by
the transactions at the polls in Virginia yes
terday.
It has been demonstrated , per adventure ,
that any kind of a federal election law would
bo resisted tn the extreme end in the south.
Just BO long as the larger proportion of
colored men remain in the soutli and the pre
judice exists there will bo suppression of
their votes by ono means , If moro conven
ient and other means if necessary , unless the
federal government is ready to take up arms
und light for the rights iL has placed in the
hands of tha blacks. The advocates of the
federal election law now in Washington say
that it coulaonly be enforced by the presence
at the polls of special deputy United States
marshals or United States troops , and stem
action by either of thuso representatives of
federal authority would bo disputed by the
democrats. The "purging of the registry"
nnd the keeping away from the polls of the
black voters arc the smallest of the crimes.
It was demonstrated all through Virginia
yesterday that by giving the
whlto roan t an opportunity to
vote the moment ho approached the voting
precinct and keeping the black man In line
all day until the polls closed was n most ef
fective mode of suppressing the colored voto.
All sorts of dilatory questions and foolish
catechisms to colored voters worn applied
lor the purpose of killing time , so that when
tbo hour cuinu to ciloso tlio polls the greatest
number possible of colored voters would bo
loft in line without exercising their fran
chise ,
The tlrstdutyof a fcdoral ofllcor under a
federal election lawwould bo to sco that no
unnecessary delay was permitted for tbo
purposeof - preventing the black men from
voting. As soon us a federal officer would
demand a cessation of these popular tactics
there would bo collisions between state and
federal authorities which would result la
rint und bloodshed. It would bo useless to
inuct a federal election law without
ntroug safeguards guaranteeing a free bill-
lot. The moment u conflict was imminent
between ntate und federal authorities tbo
militia would apooar and llttlo loss than n
revolution would follow. Tlio colored men
of the south can no mare defend their rights
by force of arms than the women of the
country. At ovury voting precinct in Uica-
mood , Norfolk. Petersburg and at various
othir largo cities In Virginia yesterday wore
Hquads ol polluo la uniform and as many
epecial police in citizens clothing. Quick
tmnUhmont would have been motua out to
colored man bad they attempted at any time
to forcibly assert their rights.
Iu the center of the black bolt wcro
located sovt'ral companies of state militia In
full uniform , under arms and subject to in-
ntnut command. It would only have been
necessary for the police oiltcora to have
blown their whistles la order to have culled

Orocloy's Annual Report of tlio
"Weather Bun-nii.
WAsmsoTosr , Nov. 0. General Greoley ,
chief signal officer , in bis annual reportsavs :
"In tbo performance of the strfct military
duties which by law devolves on him , the
chief signal officer Is seriously embarrassed
by the utter lack of facilities for using or
caring for Held telegraph trains or other
signal service equipments under his charge ;
for the practical training and drilling of the
officers and enlisted men ot the signal corps ,
and lastly , to n minor extent , by the need
of liberal appropriations. Under such con
ditions the oilicurs nnd men of this service
nre gradually but surely retrograding ns re
gards tl'eir military Unties , nnd at tne cad of
the fiscal year the condition of signal in
struction in the army is at the lowest ebb it
has ever known. "
Ho recommends , therefore , cither that In
structions in the nrt of military signalling bo
nbhmloncd or ample material und moral
support given the chief so that ho may raise
it to a high standard of elUoioncy.
Spcakinirot the weather forecasts , General
Grccloy calls attention to the fact that under
the present conditions the forecast officer can
devote barplyhalf n minute to the predic
tions for any uaitlcular state or district. The
percentages of successful forecasts made by
Prof. Marvin are for weather , 84.4 ; tem

over eighty counties , and estimates on the

ance of the stuto ticket , except Hutchison ,
is probably elected , as ho .was badly cut .by
nntf-ivrohibitionists nnd by others ; in fact ,
ho scorns to liayo been caught between the
upper nnd the lower millitono , being
scratched by extreme anti-prohlbitlonlsts

the enemy was madn over him , and the rest
of the ticket went clear. Spencer Smith , rail

thought , enough of a load to bo elected.

abend of Hutchison that ho is probably
elected ,
The republican majority in the legislature
has boon very much reduced. It will not bo

are thut it will stund at that 11 g nro. The
anti-prohibitionists made great gains In the

with vary small majorities. Politics entered
very llttlo into the contest , which was but a

with tbo largo number of bogus tickets

A * Former lown Man Arrested For a
AVnr T 1 1110 Crime.
Cnicxao , Nov. 0. Dotcotlvo Norrls , of
Springfield , O. , was scon nt the hotel bore
this evening and said ho had just returned
from Joplln , Mo. , from tracing an old crime
committed InJovva City during the war.
John Swanton , now a wealthy nnd ro-
spcclod resident in the vicinity of Joplin ,
was during the war a member of
QuantrelL's band of raiders. Ho and
a friend named Uniloy wore ac
customed to separate from the main
band and skirmish for thotnsolvcs. Ono
night in the year 1SG3 they und u third com
panion came to the burn of a wcalthv Iowa
fanner , Joslah Holhrook. They took Ills
horses from the barn , left their old ones in it
nnd sot lire to the building. Whun they
wcro making nwuv Holbrook's son , who was
coming homo ou furlough , snw them
nnd soon had a posse In pur
suit. Bailey was captured , Swanton
escaped . and the other man was killed.
Swanton went to Ohio and settled down ,
but Bailey nscuped from the Iowa prison
nnd joined Swanton. They then returned to
Iowa nnd took revenge for the deatn of their
companion by burning the Sackard mill nt
lowiv City because one of the Sackard fam
ily was a member of the pursiilng posso.
Both mpn wuro caught but managed to gel
released on bonds , which they jumped. Soon
nftor the war Swanton returned to his old
homo in Missouri , wliero ho has prospered.
Dotcctlvo Morris says when ho. called
on Swanton the latter said the case was out
lawed , but the sight of an indictment by the
grand jury of Iowa City caused him to ask
on what terms It could bo sottlcd. N orris
Bays the cuso can bo settled by Swuntou pay
ing thu 5UUO Insurance which was on the
mill , but docs not know yet what action
S\vantou will take. Bailey , ho says , will bo
arrostcd in a short time.

MAN-EATING TIGERS.
Homo Facts About llum Accumulated
in lii.tlin.
At the lust mcottiiff ot the Bombay
Nutunil History society , Mr Gilbert , u
wall-known slciltarco , reiul u paper on
niiui-enliii titfurd , of wlilch abiiof fu-
port is tfivon In the London Times. Ho
says Unit the ponultir idea ot tlio mnn
cater is wholly incorrect. IIo Is com
monly supposed to bo "un old brute ,
moro oiton deiTopit thnn otherwise ,
pet-Imps liuncd from some former
wound , with his tcutli broken nnd hid
skin always mutiny , unable from his in-
lli'iniliea lo kill gtune , but obliged lo
conceal himself near a village path and
then toBounce * on some bolilary human
boinu and devour him , never attuukliiK
when there nro moro than two or tlircn
perbona together , and always display
ing great cunning. "
Sir WiijiuinUuntor takes this view ,
and deseribos the man-cater as generally -
ally an old boast , disabled from over
taking his usual prey , and who suuins '
to accumulate his tale of vietlms' in
hheor cruelty ruther than for food. Sir
William Uuntor mentions a man-caior
who was known to ; have killed JOS
jiuraons In throe years , and another
which killed an average of SO persons u
year for the same pericd. A third
caused Kl villages to bo abandoned and
250 bqtiaro miles of hind to bo thrown
out of cultivation. A fourth killed 1U7
persons in a year and stopped a public
roud for many weoks.
Mr. Gilbert , howqvur , bays that those
views as to the man cater are quite er
roneous , They are not dilTerunt from
the ordinary tiger , which lives oagaine
and bullocks , but ho docs not say why
they become man-eaters. Sir Joaoph
Fayror suggests that it is by the acci
dent of havingonee tasted human lloah
and then finding all other llesh insipid.
Mr. Gilbert mentions certain famous
man-eaters. Ono , a tigress , in the
Nagpnr district , has a fondness for the
employes of the Bongal-Nagpur rail
way , frequents a tract of country only
about nine square miles in area , and is
possessed ol extraordinary cunning and
audacity. This year , up to Juno , she
hud killed so von people , besides wound
ing others. . She lives in a rocky and
precipitous spur , in which there is a
heavy bamboo and other jungle. Sev
eral bprings of water rise at the foot of
the scarps , and there is
a , cave which shows many
signs of being used by her and her fam
ily. A big stone just outside the en
trance is scored deep nnd long with
many scratches of their claws. In Feb
ruary last , in broad daylight , she car
ried oil'one of a gang of norinnnont-way
men from under the eyes of liis com
panions. She has been shot at many
times and her cubs killed , but she has
got off scatheless. Sometimes the man-
eater traverses very long distances.
Thus the Jaunsar man-eater , which was
killed by an otllcer of the Forest depart
ment , after killing a man in ono place ,
would kill another twenty miles on" the
next night. This ono , also a tigress ,
frequented a belt of tlio Himalayas5,000
to 10,001) ) feet high , and was eventually
killed 8.01)0 ) fcoc above the bea. But
none of the man-oators recorded by Mr.
Gilbert wore decrepit or worn out.
They wore strong , handsome boiists iu
their prime.
Ha n nn ii I'll per.
A now factor is entering the papor-
inakcrs' market. It , has been proved
that the banana "plnnt contains a *
greater quantity of pure ilbro thnn any
other ol the numerous1 vegetable pro
ducts used for the manufacture of
paper. During the llrst twelve months
of Us vegetation the plant produces hut
a single bunch of fruit , nftor which it
dies : but from its roots four or ton
young plants spring up. The adapta
tion of the plant to commercial pur
poses will , it is anticipated , revolution
ize the paper material umriiot and
largely alfcot the industry. The plant
is easv of cultivation and has long since
boon' recognized by the wandering
tribes in Central America as yielding
many useful adjuncts to every day do
