Aeeasalag that tba contest for the pre sl
deacy baa been concluded by tba election
of Mr. Harrison, K la in order bow for our
people te dlautlaa politics from their minds,
tefatfeerwltk tbe excitement and eense et
dlaappeintmeat wltb which ae naexpeeted
a result la naturally reealvad. Might-have

I JeoUeloontaaapUtloB. Tba batter way la
te accept aa aoeompiianaa laet wiia goea
raoe and turn te accustomed avoeatlona.
Four yearabenea there will be aa oppor
tunity for tbe defeated patty te reverae tbe
result of Tueaday'a voting, and in view of
tba Impracticability and unwladem of
tba policy te which tba Republican
party la oeaamttted, tba opportunity prom prem
liea te be an emtnlntly favorable one. Bad
eoeaoasio ends, bad metheda and bad lead
erablp are aim eat aura within four ycara te
produce a multitude of party blunder,
unpepnlsrlty and consequent disaster.
Meanwhile It la tha duty of tbe citizen
te entertain tbe beat petalbla wishes for tbe
prosperity of tbe country nnder tbe govern
ment It baa, and te tee bla beat endeavors
te promote that dealrableend. At tbe aame
time ba may find It Instructive te atoer ateer
tala and eatlmate at their true value tbe
faotera of Mr. Harrlsen'a vlotery. Among
tba varieua eauae efcMr. Cleveland'a deleat
tbe meat prominent and potent, perhaps,
waa tbe enormeua and unprecedented cam
palgn fund at Mr. Quay'a disposal. Wltb
thla Mr. Quay brought tbe organlzttlen of
bla party te a atata of tbe utmost perfection
In tbe doubtful states, making gains for bla
candidate where be waa already streng.and
detaching vetea from Mr. Cleveland In
lecalltlea where bla candidate waa weak.
Meney la a factor lu politics aaln ether
human s flairs, and a great deal of It may be
counted upon te produee a great effcet.
Intimidation of empleyes In several et tbe
Northern atatea by peiaena Intereated In
tbe retention of tbe existing scale
et tariff taxes also, It may be
supposed, played a part. Manufacturer,
under tbe Impreailen that a 7 per cent
rednotlen of the tariff means fne trade, and
that free trade means ruin, would very
naturally try te exert, directly or Indirectly,
a considerable pressure unen tbelr work
men. Many of tbe latter bad, no doubt, i
Been reaenca ny ine lariu literature scat
tered through tbe country by the Deme
cratle managera and aeme bad been con
vinced. Tbla la evidenced by the large
vote received by Mr. Cleveland In Con
necticut, New Jersey and ether states where
manufacturing oenetltutea tbe chief em
ployment and interest et the people. But
intimidation cannot be met and over
come by argument. Timid voters will
cast their ballets as dtrceled, when
tbeyaee that tbe failure te de ae will be
followed by less of work. Beth of the
causes here mentioned operated largely
In New Yerk, the pivotal state. They were
greatly assisted, however, by the faotlen
tights and petty interests or tbe New Yerk
elty Democracy. It la net imprcbible tint
Mr. Cleveland would bave received in New
Yerk city a majority sufficient te overcome
tbe Republican majority In the atate out
side the city bad the elty Democrats been
united. They wenld bave been united,
perbapa, but for tbe obstinacy et Mr.
Hewitt, wbe insisted upon being a candi
date for tbe mayoralty. HIa nomination,
thereupon, by the County Democrats made
the opportunity for trading which tbe Re
publican managera desired, and Erbardt
was nominated as tbe Republican candi
date for mayor, Tbua tbe battle wasjelned,
and It la plain en tbe face of tbe retnrna
that Mr, Cleveland was sacrificed te
meet tbe exigencies of tbe rival Democratic
candlda'es for the mayoralty. Grant, the
Tammany candidate, waa tbe victor. It la
te be noted that In thla case, as In the case
of Governer Hill, vlotery fell te tbe oppo
nent of tbe doetrlne that "te tbe victors
belong the spoils. " Tbe defeat of
Mr, C.'eveland, tbe eblef exponent el
tbe doetrlne of clvll-aervlee reform,
will be regarded in many quarters aa
a further demonstration tbat tbe American
people have net yet accepted the bread
principles underlying that reform. It la
difficult te account ter tbe oenourrent suo sue suo
eesa of Grant and Hill and tbe defeat of
Cleveland otherwise than upon tbe theory
tbat In tbe rough-and-tumble combats of
our political life tbe spoils are
looked upon as the legitimate
and proper reward of tbe victor. Aa
respects tbe bearing of tbe result upon tariff
reform, It la te be observed tbat it may de
lay but cannot prevent It. The people may
net understand their relation te the ques
tion fully yet, but tbe educational process
inaugurated during tbe campaign will con
tinue, and tbe end can be foreseen. Lew
taxea Is tee practical a proposal te remain
permanently unaccepted. It la hardly te
be aaaerted that the subject was fairly pre
aented by tbe defenders of the exlatlng sys
tem during the campaign, and It la clear
that Mr. Quay's metheda tend te tbe per per
veraien el the real verdict of the people.
Tbe division et tbe membership of the
Heuse in tbe Fifty-first Congress between
tbe two great partiea abew tbat at present
the sixty-five millions et tbe American peo
ple are almeat equally divided en the sub

Governer Hill, In response te a serenade
In Albany en Tburaday evening, in tbe
oeurae of bla speech, said : "Oar euccess in
tbe gubernatorial contest la marred by tbe
ahadew of national disaster. In common
wltb every true Democrat, X greatly re
gret tbe defeat of Prealdent Cleve
land in tbe state and in tbe nation.
He deserved better at the banda et
tbe people of thla country. Heneat,
brave and courageous, he gallantly led
bla party In tbe great centeat for tariff
reform, and sutlers defeat owing te falae
clamor, unjust prejudices, unfair represen
tations and the glgantle and combined ef
fort of all tbe monopolists of the country.
He did hla duty, aa he understood 1', re
gardless of personal or political considers
liens, and he abeuld have been auatalned
by the taxpayers, consumers and maesea of
the people, whose true Interesta he desired
te subserve, and whose rights be unselfishly
endeavored te malnta'n.
it la net new necessary or profllable te
Inquire whether tbe Issue wblchhe ae bold
ly made might net mero wiaely have been
earlier presented or postponed te a later
period. It Is sufficient le say aaa trusted
leader el tbe Democratic party, after a full
consideration of tbe whole subject, be
deemed tbat the beat and trueat interesta of
tbe country required that tbe issue should
be made at tbla crista and wltb tbat patriolle
and deliberate conclusion when once
reached there abeuld bave been prompt
acqulesen de. The principle et tariff reform
baa only met wltb temporary deteat;soener
or later it will ultimately triumph in this
country. President Cleveland and tbe
Democratic pirty were right, and deserved
te succeed. The argument waa with us,
and two weeks' longer discussion would
bave given na tbe victory."
Krsncl. O. Balsy was MarcbUen."
The exeltement created by tbe Bsckvlllo Bsckvllle
West letter and the effect It may have had
en tbe recent political campaign deterred
tbe writer et tbe Mnroblsen letter, te which
Lord Sickvllle replied, from making blm
aelf known. New that the electlea Is ever
be baa withdrawn the veil of aecreey.
Murcblsen la Francla G. Haley, a farmer,
realding two mllea from Pomona. He is a
native of New Yerk, of Irish deseent, and
baa a very nice little family. He told me
tbat be wanted te get at tbe bottom faeta aa

"I wrote tbe letter te Minister West," said
be, 'entirely et my own volition, and

In conversation respecting himself, Mr.

THE TESTIMONY TAKEN,
The first wltneta called waa Charles F.
Miller, and hla testimony waa aa fellcrra:
" I am the president and manager of tbe
Lancaater Chemical company ; JebnReldel
baa been in my employ for eight yeara ;
Klann worked for ua about a year ; tbe men
at tbe works were adding tbe last piece te
the new engine when tbe accldeut occurred;
Roldel waa ordered te go te the wheel te
turn It ever and the men wbe were carry
ing the piece of the engine laid It down
while tbey leited ; Reidel turned the wheel
ever, I was at tbe cress bead, Frank Abel
was at the crtfnk pin and the rest
of the men were at the wheel turning
1' ever te ascertain .where tbe lest
motion was, wben tbe exploaien oc
curred ,at 15 or 20 minutes alter 5 o'clock ;
there waa usually 76 pounds et steam car
ried; tbe boilers registered SO pounds and
the engine 75 pounds; an Inspector of tbe
Hsrtferd Insurance oempanyset tbe gaugea
at 80 pounds; from 60 te 80 pounds of steam
waa carried, according te the work done;
about six weeks age from 86 te 90 pounds
were carried and thou an inspeo inspee inspeo
ter came from Philadelphia at our
solicitation; be thought tbe pressure
tee great and reduced It te 76 peunda ; we
then ordered another boiler. Before tbe
exploaien steam blewed off, which would
Indicate tbat net mere than 80 pounds waa
used.
ROILBRfl OP TIIK BEST MAKE.
The boilers made were the beat we could
gel ; two were put In en August, 18S7,
one last May aud the fourth six
weeks age ; none or the men em
ployed at tbe works ever suggested
tbat we were carrying tee much preaaure.
1 went te Mr. Bpencer, et tbe oetton mill,
in reference te the amount et steam carried
and he said : "They usually bave 76
pounds;' the safety valvea were set te
blew off at 80 pounds ; there waa no partic
ular reaaen te get the men'a lives insured ;
It was done six months age and before we
began furnishing power te the electrle
light company ; our policy of
Insurance reada that every man Injured la
insured; we are consuming coal durt and
tan, aa a substitute fcr coal, and are obliged
te bave het event; the ateam with thla fuel
runs up rapidly and coela off auddenly;
an Inspector was here yeaterday and ex.
amlned tbe boilers; be aald "tbat 00 pounds
was net te much ateam for tbe first flve
yeara a boiler la in use, and for the last
flveyearsofalieileralliothepreasuroahould
net be ever 70 or 72 pounds; Mr. fperer
recently took out boilers in use for 19 yeara
aud the pressure en them before tbey were
removed was from 70 te 75 pounds; the
bellere used by ua were built en tbe same
principle aa Mr. Bpeneer'e; Frank Abel
waa tbe fireman when the accident occurred
and la an experienced man ; when tbe night
engineer gees en duty he examluea every
thing te aee tbat all la right; he then
ebangea hla oletbea and gees te work; en
the evening of the explosion when he made
bis examination be found two gauges of
water ,lu all tbe bailers but one and In tbat
ene tbere were two and a halt
gauges; the boilers were examined
five or six weeka age by an Inspector
from Philadelphia) and tbe new
one,net yet In place, waa examined at Best's
shop ; he saw tbat the aafety and check
valves worked all right and auggeated that
a piece of lead be cast for one el the boilers,
se tbat tbe weights used en tbe valvea would
be tbe aame In all ; the boilers that exploded
were tbe old ones, the ones put up In Au
gust 1887 ; alnce the fourth boiler was add d,
wa bave had no trouble and it waa
easler en the fireman ; the electrle light
company alwaya bad power enough, but It I
tOOK lime 10 bujubi maiieia; tueaueusei
our bellera abew tbat tbey were kept clean,
and the inspector from Philadelphia after
examining tbe same yesterday said it waa
no fault of eure tbat tbe aceldent happened;
he found tbat the lien In the boiler was of
irregular thickness, and said it waa lmpra
slble for the mauufacturer te leek In the
middle of aBbeet; tbe workmanship was all
right and the iron tbe best made; tl.e
Inspector bad no idea of tbecausoet tbe
explosion ; the prcssure was net ever 80
pounds, for I looked at the gauge net two
minutes befere tbe explosion.
WUAT TBE ENGINEER HAY8.
Frank Able, Hwern : 1 am tbe engineer ;
en the day et tbe accident the fireman waa
net en duty ; I attended tbe bellera and en
gine all dny ; 1 bad between 75 and 80
peunda of nteam wben 1 heard a thump in
the engine aud went te the ecglne te leek
for the cause, and at that moment the acci
dent happened ; 1 ran the engine at night
for the electrle light company two or three
nights when Engineer Usui bright was sick;
It does net require mere power te run the
electrle lights than the machinery of tbe
works ; I never felt tbat tbe engine was run
tee baid at night or that tbete waa tee
much prcesure en the bollerf ; en tbe day ct
tbe accident 1 attended both tbe engine
and bellerr; tbe engine did net require
much attention;! waa at the engine when
the explosion rxcurred; I have been work
ing at the chemical works for four years
and bave had charge of the engine all of
that time.
Jaoeb M. May cr, who II ves near the works,
waa called as a witness, but his testimony
threw no light en the causa of the ex.
plosien.
SUPERINTENDENT HOHRECK TESTIFIEH.
Adelpb Bcbreck, superintendent of tbe
electrle light com pony, swern: I was cut
aide the building when the aceldent oc
curred ; I knew netblug et the quantity of
ateam or water tbere was in use: 1 was
there In the morning, after the lights were
out and there was then 20 peunda et steam,!
first bad treuble about getting power but It
waa the fault of the engine and net for want
of bellera ; 1 de net knew what tbe cause of
the aceldent wac; tbe fault at tbe old electrle
light waa the engine, but two bellera were
used there; I alwaya bad great confidence
In the bellera at the chemical works, and
never expected them te explode,
Matblaa Van Hern, awern: 1 am em
pleyed at Jehn Best's boiler shops and
bave been there for 23 years'; assisted in mat.
lng tbe bellera of tbe chemical works; 1
recently caulked several of tbe flues which
bad baas lesklag aa la often ttfl
HMM MealM Ua keUata
closely then but thought tbey
were In geed eondttten ; I waa out
yeaterday but did net examine tba boilers
eleaely; thought tba material la the bellera
waa all right as tar aa I aaw II; wben at tbe
werka aeme daya age about 6 .o'clock p. m.,
X waa In the engine house and then 76
psunda of ateam was being used. There Is
such a thing as one boiler taking the water
from another; this might be eauaed by one
boiler having mere fire than another; the
man In charge wben I waa there seemed
very careful and te understand bla bual-
EXPERT TESTIMONY.
LjvI Ltndl, maeblnlst ter 34 yearr,
awern : I saw the boiler after tbe accident,
aud examined ahead between the two build
ing, wbleh yet bad a flueln it ; 1 aaw there
waa nothing wrong wltb tba Iren of tbla
boiler ; around the bead, where tba rivets
go In, It was eraeked for about one third ;
part of that abewed a dlaoeloratlon of the
Iren. It might bave been an old crack, or
might bave been eaused by being thrown
In the dirt i an examination could easily be
made without discovering thla Imperfeo Imperfee Imperfeo
tten, If aueb It was : 1 oeuld net tell what
the cause et tbe accident was unless tbe
brace inside bad net been drawn up prep
erly; this was net certain; It waa witness
opinion that there was an Imperfection In
the boiler, but It wasel the kind tbat It
might net be discovered even by an In
spector ; tbere are many different opinions
In regard te boiler explosions, and there
are many theories aa te the eauaea among
men of experience ; I could net tell tbe
eauae of tbe accident, but a perfect boiler
would net explode at 1C0 peunda of ateam ;
bellera bave been tested with aa high aa 400
peunda of ateam, and tbey did net explcde.
Frank Marlen, boiler maker, sworn : I
have been In the buslneaa24 jears; lex.
amlned the boiler alter yeaterday'a acol acel
dent; the bellera were well constructed as
far aa I oeuld Judge ; laaw no defect about
tbe boiler ; saw the boiler head between
the two buildings ; aaw no bead tbat was
eraeked aa far aa I recollect ; aaw a piece
et the ahell attached te the head that was
broken ; I have no Idea of tha eauae of the
explosion ; knew nothing about the dlmen
alens et tbe boiler, bnt tbey should bold SO
peunda without any trouble ; as near aa I
could tell there waa no defeet In tbe boiler.
Themas Andersen, machinist, awern: I
have worked for 20 years at the trade ; aaw
tbe boiler at tbe chemical werka after tile
accident ; thought tbey were made all right
and tbat tbe Iren waa right ; thought the
head, found batwoen the two bellera, waa
meat tee light ; bead for that kind of
boilers should be about 6 10 of an lneh in
thickness while this waa about i ; the one
boiler exploding eauaed the ether ; the
weaker one waa overpowered, and if ever
80 pounds wai belng uaed thought tbat
would cause It te explode ; I knew nothing
of the quantity of ateam In uae here ; thought
bellera of this kind abeuld be teated once
or twice a year with a amall engine!
thought 80 peunda of ateam waa a high prea
sure for bellera of the kind in uae here;
there waa ample boiler capacity te de tbe
work at this place; witness we a at the
werka In day time and found everything
working well.

Tbn United Ireland, of Dublin, expresses
IndlUurencj at the election In the United
Htatee, and attributes tbe result te the Hack
vllln atlalr and tbe Irish vote :
While It is iUtterlng te the Irish te be
able te turn the aaile in such a contest, tbe
fact 1b regrettable, as it is also humiliating
and menacing te America.
The Irish vote exists aa a aoparate and
menacing factor in American politic?, be
cause the fact tbat Ireland is without home
rule, rankles as a spear-bead In tbe rela
tions between tbe English speaking race.
"It would be cheap," saya the paper, for
America te establish borne rule In Ireland
even at the cost of a war with Great Britain.
We need net comment upon tbe value te
England of a settlement of tbe Irish que,
tlen."
The Londen Standard aayi; "Nevor
was there a mere absurd fiction than that
British geld waa iavlahbd te secure the do de
feat of Mr. Blalne and bla nominal leader,
or tbat Englishmen would be mortified at
the overthrew et President Cleveland, O!
all persona In the world tbe one that we
have tbe least reason te be grateful te la
President Cleveland." It thuu proceeds te
BDueeMr, Clevtltnd unmercifully,
Tbe Londen Vimu aava: "Though we
bell6ve that President Cleveland'a inter
nal policy and hla administration are mere
remarkable for capacity and uprightness
than anything te which Republicans can
point in recent yeara, we cannot profess re
gret at an event wbicb may be regarded aa
an appropriate penalty ter els discreditable

Fer several minutes Mr. Coogan iralenn
reply, being busy with his figure. Then
he threw down his blue pencil, combed hi
whiskers, strode rspldly up and down tbe
room In varying attitudes of profound
tbeught, filing himself again Inte the re
volving chair, and said :
'Tbla la remarkably cold weather for

1 replied that I had bad no time that day
te consult Perry's thermometer, but l but I
bad beard tbat several prominent munlelial

" Aa nearly aa I can figure it," aald Mr.
Coogan, running bla eye again ever the

I nodded In a bland, lOlimsllve way,
and auggeated as a oeuaolatlon that euek

order te better enjoy the aroma et my

who ha nursed Inte life an ardent young

I nodded In sympathetic aesent,
"Get onto these stutst" Impultlvely ex ex

of hla right band tewarda tbe check-book.
"Oat right onto theso atuba and then akin

I did aa I waa requeated.

' Ten dollar, thirty-nine cents and. eight

Mr, Coogan with rllng emotion. "Ten

and no Installments, ancf then didn't stand
any mero real ahew than a alck eat wltb out

I sighed with blm, and then we both
lighted fresh cigarettes.
'But what makea me llred,'remarked Mr.
Coogan with aome Irritation, after we had
