Naturally the grntm Jury wmld Indict no one , or no number of tboso concerned In this busi ness. The people did it , and no grand jury could devlso a way to Indict 'tbo people. ' " Tno Tlmes-IJcmoernt says : "Tbe urnnd jury hns given the proper return In the par ish prison lynching , n return thnt will meet with the approval of the entire people , not of New Orleans alone , but of the country. The case had , Indeed , been tried by the press be fore the bar of public opinion and a verdict ot not guilty , a finding of "well done , " had long since been returned as to the men whoso nets supprcsioj the Malla nnd gave n warning to the criminals of Europe thnt they would llnd no welcome In this country. " The I'icayuno : " \Vo nccopt the declara tion of the inability of the grand Jury to get information ns to the participants in the storming of the parish nrlson. Doubtless there wns n largo svmuathy with the perpe trators of the acts after thov were com mitted , hut sympathy nfter the fact Is not Guilt nnd t.ot participation. The grand Jury could not Jlnd the guilty parties. Thnt Is plain enough. Any Insinuation that the 'on- tlro pooplo' of the city and parish nro re sponsible ought not to proceed from the ( . mud Jury , which wns acting under or.th. " Mium-Kiic , WIs. , May 0. . The Sentinel /nays : "Tho presentation makes a case of strong circumstnntlnl evidence thnt the talesmen were approached by friends nnd agents of the nccusod Italians , nnd the com mon conclusion will bo that some of the Jurors were bribed. The character of O'Mal- loy , who was employed by the Italians , is suown to bo very bad , and if Jurors were not bribed It wns not his fault. Hut the report of the grand Jury ought to hnvo relieved pub lic curiosity outside of Now Orleans If some conclusive evidence as to the connection of the Italians with the murder of Chief Hen y nossoy had been given. " Nnw YOIIK , May 0. On the Nw Orlc..ns grand Jury's report the I'ost says : "This Is not a legal document. It is an.apology for an net of direct revolutlonaiy violence com mitted by the cntlro population of n large city and expressed In the Inllatcd rhetoric in which manifestoes are usually couched. Ills n confession by a competent authority that the machinery of criminal Justice has com pletely broken down In the state of Louis iana nnd that crimes of nny magnitude have to bo punished by n revolutionary tribunal. ' It holds out no promise of a bettor or morn regular administration of local Justice , but It throws some light on the working of the Jury system In New Orleans , which the peo- j > lo orother cities , and particularly those of Now York , will do well to read , mark , learn and Inwardly digest , for , as wo remarked when the news of the tragedy ilrst came , wo nro traveling fast nlong the shameful path which has ended in New Orlenns in the erection of mob government ns n desperate necessity. " Tbo Mall nnd Express says : "If the his lory of Now Orleans since the war and up to March 14 last had been entirely unfamiliar to Iho people of this country the voluminous nnd rhetorical report presented by the grand Jury of that city , justifying tbo enforcement of lynch law on thnt memorable occasion , might bo regarded with mote favor than can bo accorded by the loyal and law-abiding cit izens of this country. Moreover , it has been duo to tbo luck of municipal patriotism and to the neglect nnd unwillingness of Now Or leans ofllclnls to enforce the laws for the pro tection of lives nnd the preservation of the pence , thnt such n formidable gang of assas sins ns the Mnlla should have boon permitted to grow In power to tnko effectual part In locnl politics nnd to become n terror to thou- enmls of people. The Sicilian Mnlla found in Now Oilcans a congenial and homelike flold for tliolr operations. In n city where white won ot nny position hava been allowed to commit murder with impunity , whenever the Vdlliig occurs in a duel or otT-hund light , the vUninnl immigrants from Sicily felt eiu-our- nged to resume the homicidal careers for Which they had to leave their native land. " The Herald says : "That is the verdict of the grand Jusy , which speaks for the people of Now Orleans. Jt will bo the verdict ol the Arairlcan people and of tbo civiluoil \vorldwhorevorthe farts nro Known. It is no time to sermonize tibout mob violence.

The Star says "Tho bandits uud Mafia who seek refuge on our shores nro shot like antmals of prey In Jtnly. Thcro is no reason 'why they shoulf meet with nny more , consideration in the United States than they recolvo In the lam pf their nativity. It is to bo deplored , of course , thnt any combination of events li America should render it nocosaarv for"a judicial body to condnno a lynching , 'but the hnxjrt.of the Isew Orleans grand jury proves quite conclusively thnt such a condition of affairs exiits in that city and It is n plain proposition that the slaying of the Ilennossv lissasslns was not only jiistlllnblu but thnt It \vns the only means of redress under the cir- rumstnnres. " The Times says : "Secret assassins nnd - -Bccrot corruption of Justice. What is worse ! Open tyranny Is bettor.

Tbo Hocky Moun tain News , In commenting on the result of the finding of the Now Orleans grand Jury , closes as follows : "While the conservative law-abiding and law-respecting people of the country may not ngrwo with the action of tbo people of I ow Orleans In tnkliiK the law into their own bands , they will mo t heartily con cur In what the Jury states about the clais of Immigrants who nro being dumped upon our pharos.

WJIIHIXOTOX , May 0. The report of the Now Orleans grnnd Jury upon the hilling of the Italians was n fruitful tbomo for discus- slon among people nt the depart ment of stnto today. It iruy bo said that the finding of the grand jury excited no surprise , for seine such con clusion of the case was expected. The at tempt to piilllato tbo Infraction of the Inw by olT-scttlng the alleged attempts nt jury tlxing nro deprecated nt the department , but tlicro Is a well U oil i led onlulon on the whole thnt the outcome of the case will bo beneficial in its effect upon tlio turoulent foreign clement in the United States , inasmuch as it will make clear to them tlio fact that they cannot rely on treaties to cvado the responsi bilities to a great republic for tliolr unlawful acts. acts.The The report of the grand Jury will , it is ex pected , reach Secretary Dlaine in the course of time nnd figure in the olllcial correspond ence between the United States nnd Italy. Tlicro Is iviuson to believe that In seine de tails it differs from the report made to the department of justice by District Attorney Grant and notably in the matter of the na tionality of tbo victims. The grand jury's report round eight of them naturalized Amor lean cIMzen.s nnd that ono declared his intcii' lion to become naturalized. District Attorney Grant , it is believed , found one of the vic tims of Italian nationality , but ho was an escaped convict , and that another's nntlon- nlity wns so doubtful as to innUu it unsafe to ha/znrd nn opinion , so , at any rate , the Italian complaint will be narrowed down teat at least two persons , ono of them being un escaped convict. Although the United States has up naturali/.atlon treaty with Italy , the last named nation has invariably , through comity , recognized our naturalized citl/ens ns frco from nmenablllty to their nntivo govern ment. When the ca'so of these two victims was considered the question imme diately arose whether treaty .stipulations with Italy were broken. This question is likely to llguro in the correspondence between the two governments ns soon as the Italian government Is ready to fall reasonably - ably Into the usual diplomatic method of treating n subject respecting which they took issue with another nation. Unless it appears clearly that the treaty hns been violated the Italian case falls to tbo ground , nnd leading diplomatic minds of the state department maintain that this fact cannot bo made to appear. It is learned thnt Porter our minister at Homo , applied to the department of stnto for leave of absence before tbo Now Orleans affair happened. Ho has been constantly on duty slnco March , ISS'.l , more tnan two years. Moreover tbo sickly season Is approaching In Uomo. so thnt It Is entirely probable his re quest will bo granted. Attorney General Miller said ho read the report of the grand jury , but declined abso lutely to express nny opinion rognrdlng It or to discuss It In any way. * Secretary Foster , when nskod his opinion on the report , said ho really had ilot ttmo to read it , and therefore was not in a position to express an opinion regarding it.

" "It wns the year before Lincoln's second nomination , " , Mrs. Coleman said , "that the famous Sojourner Truth , , nccornpanlcd by another colored woman , came to mo with a request to procure her nn interview with the president. All throe then went In , and I toll you frankly that Mr. Lincoln's attitude in meeting the two black women struck mo very much as one that n man would nssuma nt nn uncxDcctcd visit from his washerwoman. I told Mr. Lincoln quickly that I had not como to ask for anything , but was simply acting ns guide for my two colored companions , nnd then Sojourner Truth ndvanced nnd said that she could not die without seeing tbo llrst anti-slavery president. " 'Mrs. Truth,1 , replied the president ab ruptly , 'I am not an anti-slavery man. If I could save the union without freeing the slaves I would not liberate a single one. ' "I am sure that these were the president's words. The circumstances ns well as tbo work in which I wns engaged fixed them In delibly upon my mind. I told the president how much I wns struck witn his romnrks and suggested that much wns allowable in wnr that would not stnnd In peace.

A syndicate was formed to buy up cash corn and May options in corn in Chicago , and Foss agreed to fur nish the necessnry money , saying there would bo no trouble to corner the market ns his Ilnn had 150 customers In Iowa whom they could control. Ho recovered judgment as payment for the work. The court said : "This wns clearly a combination to en- banco the price of corn. It was not only > .o purchase corn , but to prevent the frco soiling of the samo. They were to control the prices of a stable commodity , one of the prime ne cessities of life , and to compel those in need of corn to pay the price determined , not by entire freedom , but a price to which their combination might tm able to force tbo mar ket. This is surely against public policy and under tbo common law of a century nnd a half ago would have been a criminal offense. The law will not attempt to adjust the differ ences which arise out of transactions which it condemns. It will leave parties \vhoro their own conduct loaves them. It will not compel them to divide their plunder or part the loss of unlawful enterprises , neither will it require them to remunerate these wbo.with full cognizance of the character of such un dertakings assist them with money or ser vices.

Nr.w YOIIK , May 0. Dr. Atonxo Dlnuvnlt believes that ho has discovered on nlnrmla ? case ot leprosy In n big tenement In tlio owcr part of Oliver street. Ho reported tha cnso to the board of health yesterday and Dr. idson , chief of the bureau of contagious dis eases , nt once took the matter in hand ami slatted out a couple of his assistants on n tour of Investigation. Dr. Kdson refused to reveal the exact place where the "leper" was 'omul and says ho will not make all the facts n tbo case public until he has completed the investigation which ho Intends to make as .borough as possible. It was nsccrtnlned , : iowover , that the patient is a Gicok peddler who came to this country from Mexico only ilx wtoKs ago. IIo was sick when ho came nero , but managed to keep on his feet until last Saturday , making his daily visits through the crowded tenements in the district in which ho sold his goods. Leprosy , so say tlio doctors. Is not n con- lagio'us disease , but It Is possible to spread Its germs when precaution Is not tnuen. The last case which came to the notice of the liealth authorities of this city was tibout six months ago when n man named Kmnnuel parts wns discovered In n bouso on West Twenty-eighth street. IIo was found to bo Inn shocking condition , nnd after his isola tion on the Island the usual drooping or fall ing off of the hip joints wns noticed 111 his case. Great scales covered his body and face. He underwent great suffering and died after a long Illness. The case attracted con siderable attention In tno medical world. IIo wns removed to Yucatan before ho died In hopes that the cllmnto would benefit him. The present case Is said bv Dr. Bluuvalt to be n noticeable one. IIo will watch over the case just now nnd mi expert will examine the patient in a day or two. The Greek has been isolated , nnd although Dr. Edson says Iho disease Is not contagious ho has taken the precaution to have the Greek's quarters disinfected. Hveryliwly Known Unit nt this season tlio blood is filled with Impurities , the accumulation of months of close confinement in poorly ventilated stores workshops and tenements. All thuso impuri ties nun every trace of scrofula , salt rheum , or other diseases may bo expelled by taking Hood's Sarsnpnrilln , the best blood purlllur ever produced. It Is the only medicine of which " 100doses one dollar" Is truo. GOULD'S Gill"AT SCMHMK. Ills Joint Ollloo Arrangement anil How It Would Work. "Tho joint agency schema proposed by Gould Is n great thing , " remarked General Passenger Agent Francis of the Burlington yesterday. "Tako a joint ticket otllco in this city , for instance. The various roads having city ticket ofllcos here nro paying in the neighborhood of ? 2,000 per month for ofllco rent alone. This would bo done away with under the proposed scliemc"resulting in u saving of nbout $2.- , uoo per year to the roads Interested. Besides that , it would result In cuiiiug 011 mo umpiovus in ino umc.roin.oi- llcos , which would effect a saving of another 125,000. "In the freight offices there would bo a largo saving also. A change would not cut much figure In this city , us there nro not many solicitors or contracting agents , and they would bo about the only ones affected ; but m the larger cities , where many of the roads have larro onlces and a number of em ployes , there would bo a marked reduction In expenses. All the ofllccs would bo consolida ted and a slnglo stall of solicitors do the busi ness of all the roads. Such a scheme in practical operation would result In a saving of $1,000,000 to the railroads. "That is the bright side of the case , " con tinued Mr. Francis. "I do not think the millenlum In railroad affairs has come yet , and I do noc believe the proposed scheme will bo put jn operation right away. There are many difficulties in the way of its suc cessful working. There would bo a strong temptation for an agent to divert trafllc in a certain direction , and it would bo pretty difficult to detect him. There tire numerous other difficulties In the way , and I think It will bo seine time before wo wilt see joint agencies In full blast.
