IiOxdon, Xbv. 2S. Copyright. The
Gladstonians have won another "moral vic
tory" in the East Dorset election to-day, in
tpite of the fact that drunkenness and cor
ruption brought about a majority for the
Tory candidate. Stuart, the son of Lord
Arlington, wins by a majority of 517 vote?
over the Liberal candidate, while in, 1S86
the Tory majority over Hume was C55 as
against a Liberal majority ot 69" in 18S5,
when Glyn was elected.
The Liberals claim that the registration
has of late been entirely neglected in East
Ttorset, and that there have been nfany com
plaints by Liberal workingmen who Have
bea unable to get their names on the vot
ing list, Nevertheless, some of the best
Liberal speech.es of the campaign and some
excellent work have triumphed over the
ruffianism in public and the intimidation in
private which has made this little borough
a close Tory preserve in past years.
A Recover- on the IrUli Question.
There has been a general recovery, so far
J political opinion on the Irish question is
concerned, of the position before 18S6. The
loss on registration, organization and by
general neglect has neutralized this to some
extent, and the raising of the temperance
question by ilr. Glyn brought a powerful
factor against him. Last night the town
Was full of drunken people, and the Liber
als said their only chance of a victory was
that the rowdy clement would get too drunk
to vote.
The Tory caucus at Birmingham has been
a most humorous piece of theatrical hum
bus. There was no genuine ring about the
performance from first to last. The discus
sion in regard to the Irish Government bill
wbich the Government is pledged to intro
duce was a beautifully gotten-up perform
ance. The delegates clamored that the En
glish demands were the most pressing, that
the position of the agricultural laborer
required redress, and other English griev
ances called for adjustment Therefore Ire
land should wait
Ilovr Protection Beat Tree Trade.
The Tories have no scats to lose in Ire
land; they have plenty to lose in England.
The same tactics were pursued with the
resolution which embodies the protectionist
idea. Although Lord Salisbury had spoken 1
strongly for free trade the previous night
the protection resolution was carried. Then
Salisbury, speaking again, hinted that the
injustice ot the new taiiff regulations which
told so hardly upon British commercial
Interests and upon the working classes
might Irom the very weight of outside
pressure drive the Government to take some
steps. It was an effort to catch the votes of
those manufacturers and work people who
are hurt by the McKinley tariff, and who
are sore enough to catch at anything which
promises redress.
The most interesting event at the Tory
fathering, however, was the appearance of
Lord Salisbury and Joseph Chamberlain on
the same platform. Chamberlain was ap
parently carried away by his surroundings,
and threw over his own friends completely.
Chamberlain's Attack on Gladstone.
"The gulf has widened and deepened," he
raid, "now. I neither look for nor desire
reunion." Thereupon there was great cheer
ing and waving of handkerchiefs. Then
Chamberlain let himself loose, referring to
the Grand Old Man as a veiled prophet,
and speaking of the policy of his
former colleagues as a vile con
spiracy, with all the zeal of a
renegade. But to those who in the old days
admired Chamberlain's sterling qualities
before his lust for a peerage was known it
was a saddening spectacle. There was a
nit of pathos in his remarks that the Con
servatives and Dissentients had together
suffered reverses which carried the sugges
tion that he felt the reverses were not all
over.
Mr. Chamberlain's speech to-day con
trasted with what he said at a meeting in
"Wiltshire in October, 1885, and which is
very curious reading. He then said:
ITow Salisbury Used to Talk.
"I think I have answered Lord Salis
bury's challenge. He talks, forsooth, of
dishonest tactics, and he compels me to say
that never in the history of this country
was there a more flagrant instance of
political immorality than this shameless
conversion of the great bulk ot the Tory
party, accomplished in a few years in order
to purchase a few months of place without
power, and of office without honor."
On the following day Lord Salisbury, at
Brighton, replied in these pleasant terms:
"I will divide Jlr. Chamberlain's charges
into two heads. The first head comprises
those that are not true. The second head
those that are founned on the monstrous as
sumption that it is our duty to break the
promises of our predecessors as soon as we
get into office."

The Archbishop or Alx Being KapldlySIade
a Hero of.
rBT CAULS TO THE DISPATCH. 3
Loktkbt, Nov. 28. Although the Arch
bishop of Aiz has not been acquitted, as he
confidently expected, he can have but little
reason to complain. The comparatively
small fine of 3,000 francs, without any term
of imprisonment, is little short of a victory
for him. The money will be subscribed for
him and much more beside. Indeed, the
the judgment against him is just enough
to gain him the martyr's crown in the
eyes of the emotional French people,
though doubtless the clericals would have
reaped a greater harvest had the Arch
bishop been sentenced to a few weeks' im
prisonment Still, he is now a hero. Let
ters and telegrams of congratulation, massive
bouquets and floral crosses and the choicest
fruits fill his apartments. Offers of assist
ance are plentiful, one rich Catholic ex
pressing bis willingness to subscribe 20,000
francs toward building a "new convent for
the Fetites Socur des P&uvres, an institu-
tion in which the Archbishop takes great
interest
These numerous tokens of sympathy have
emboldened the Archbishop so much that
he threatens to set the Government at de
fiance and go to Borne whenever, he rileases.
Possibly his ardor will cool on reflection,
but if lie carries out his intention, the
French Government cannot overlook it
without" stultifying itselt. Consequently
all moderate men are of the opinion that
the original prosecution was a mistake, and
this is now shown by the Government
being driven into a prosecution of the
ffgaro for raising the fund to pay the Arch
bishop's fine, a step which will probably
force another series of prosecutions.

Loitdcw, Xov. 28. The version ot the
death of Lord Lytton given the great De
Blowitz, "our own correspondent" in Paris
of Ihe London 'Times, is said to be the cor
rect one, though there seems to be no good
reason why the newspaper stories should
differ. De Blowitz describes the event
thus:
"All the morning Lord Lytton had been
writing verses in bed. The morphia taken
to ally the pain had doubtless inflamed his
imagination, and his mental activity
seemed hourly increasing. About 4 o'clock,
just as Lady Lytton had entered th e adjoin
ing room and was taking off her cloak,
Lord Lytton asked her valet to give
him some carminative, a mixture which
he took to allay pains in the
side. He was continuing to write.
The valet went for the mixture and while
turning to the window to pour out a dose
he heard a slight noise, looked round and
saw Lord Lytton dead. The ink was not
dry on the sheet of paper and the last line
was unfinished. Such a death was charac
teristic The poet struck down, pen in
hand, after a morning in which the diplo
mats had listened to the report of the Em
bassy Secretarv."
To-day De Blowitz writes: "I have had
the melancholy satisfaction of looking on
the mortal remains of Lord Lytton. The
body lay on a plain iron bedstead, a crown
of laurels placed at its head. Close at
hand were a few books, among
them a volume of Tennyson which
he had been reading in the morning to Lady
Lytton and the sheet of paper on which he
was writing at the moment of his death. I
have never looked upon a dead face co im
pressive in its calm. It is that of a man
who has done his work and has entered into
eterLity without fear."
The fact that Lord Lytton was reading
Tennyson the morning "of his death has
called to mind the celebrated quarrel in
verse between the first Lord Lytton and
the Laureate, and the PaK Mali Gazette has
created some feelinjr, bv republishing
Tennyson's bitter lines which he never in
cluded in his works. When Tennyson
was placed on the pension list
in 1815 considerable jealousy was
aroused in certain literary circles
and among the critics of the pension was
Bulwer Lytton, who, in "The JTevr Timon,
a Romance of London, spoke of "School
iliss Alfred." Tennyson retaliated in
scornful verses entitled" "The New Timon
and the Poets," which were published in
Punch, in which he refers to Lytton as "the
padded man who wears the stars."
The obsequies at Paris to-day brought
together averv distinguished assemblage.
The Hon. "Whitelaw Reid,the American
Minister to France, sent a beautiful wreath,
which was placed upon the bier. Mr. Eeid
was present at the funeral-services. All
the Ministers of State we're also pres
ent President Carnot was represented by
General Brugere. Prominent among the
mourning assemblage werePrincessMathilde
and the Prince of Monaco. Many members
of the English, aristocracy were there)

men noticed were: M. Francoiese Coppee,
the French poet and member of the Acad
emy; M. Benoit Coquelin. the distinguished
actor; M Jules Massenet, the well-known
musician and composer; M. Emile Carolus
Duran, the celebrated French painter, and
M. Alexandre Dumas. The service was
fully choral.

rBT CABLE TO THE DISPATC1I.1
Lcwdox, Nov. 28. The German view of
M. de Giers' visit to France and Germany is
expressed by the StrassburyertPost, which is
an inspired Government organ. Naturally
the article is attracting much attention. It
is as follows:
M. do Glen Is a sharp old gentleman, and
has learned from Prince Bismarck. Ue takes
advantage of his Journev to kill several
birds with one stone. His' flrst object is to
keep France on the line, his second to con
ciliate the feeling in Central Europe to
Eussla. It has been stated that the finan
cial crisis in Russia has compelled the Gov
ernment to enter into economic negotia
tions with Germany, and certain proposals
were said to bo already on the wav. Well,
M. de Giers is also on his way. Wiil he find
open ears in Berlin? It is very likely
that he will be treated with the great
est amiability, but he will most
certainly not reap any great advantage for
Bussia from this visit The threatening war
preparations and disturbances of trade of
which Bussia is guilty, and the numerous
unpaid visits of the Czar to the Berlin Im
perial Court, f oi m a chain of hostile facta
which are a dead weight on poor M. de
Giers, who has nothing to expect In Berlin
unless a most improbable thing happens,
namely, that Bussia should say plainly,
"Pater peccavl," and stop all her hostile
undertakings. Should Russia put an end to
her military preparations and apply heibelf
in peace to the solution of her domestic dif
ficulties then perhaps an economic under
standing may be thought ot.

Lord Balfour Says the Troubles Are Over If
Gladstone Is Reasonable.
Edetbubgh, Nov. 28. The Bight Hon.
Arthur J. Balfour, First Lord of the
Treasury, has arrived here from Glasgow,
which city he visited for the purposj of
being installed as Bcctor of the University
of -Glasgow. He attended a conservative
meeting to-day and made an address
which was enthusiastically received. In
the course of his remarks, referring to Ire
land, he said he believed that Great Britain
would never again see "a gigantio agrarian
conspiracy, fed by American funds, raise its
head in Ireland.
He did not believe that again would be
seen anything like the obstruction and de
fiance "formerly thrown into the teeth
of the British Parliament by a
few Irish representatives. Mr. Balfour
added that he hoped the country had fin
ally successfully emerged from its greatest
difficulties. All that Ireland now wanted,
he declared, was a firm, liberal and kindly
government If only Mr. Gladstone ab
stained from advocating impossible legisla
tive remedies, Mr. Balfour was confident
that a permanent cure of Irish troubles was
affected.. At the Glasgow meeting Mr.
Balfour said that no matter what the future
might bring forth it would never bring
home rule to Ireland.

IMPORTANT CAPTORE BT A GOOD
LO.OEING ENGLISHMAN.
A Much-Wanted New Tork Crook Bun
Down by a Scotland Tara Detective
Details or the Arrest of Tom O'Brien
Another Man Taken In.
BT CABLE TO THC DtSFATCH.1
LONDON, Nov. 28. During the last two
or three weeks guests of the Metropole and
Victoria hotels have had an opportunity to
make the acquaintance of a good-looking
young Englishman dressed in the height of
London fashion, who has been hanging abont
the smoking rooms of the two hostelries,
apparently with no further purpose
than the consumption of brandy and soda.
The good-looking young Englishman, how
ever, did have a further purpose, and ho
accomplished it last Wednesday, when he
arrested Tom O'Brien, the well-Known New
Tork crook, who is wanted on Manhattan
Island for grand larceny and at Albany for
jumping his bail
The good-looking young'Englishman was
Inspector Frank C. Froest, of Scotland
Yard, and O'Brien was the third American
criminal he had arrested this week, the
other two being John McCormick, who is
charged with forgery by the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company, of New York,
and Joseph J. Ashforth, charged with em
bezzling funds from the Boyal Arcanum.
Froest was given the warrants in
the three cases. The first two
he executed with comparatively little
difficulty, but O'Brien has kept him busy
for some time, and Detective Beilly, of In
spector Byrnes' staff, who is over here to
take MeCormaok back, made matters more
interesting by informing the English detec
tive that O'Brien was a man who would not
be taken alive, and would sell his life
dearly.
A week ago the police learned that
O'Brien was living at, Hotel L'Athenee, in
Paris, but before the French and English
authorities could combine their forces he
got wind of their intentions and decamped
on Tuesday. His capture on Wednesday
was by mere chance. Froest was taking
luncheon in the Gattis restaurant in the
Strand, early in the afternoon, with Charles
Hodson, a clerk in the United States Lega
tion, who knew O'Brien by sight, when
O'Brien, who had just arrived from Paris,
came across from Charing Cross station to
get something to eat Froest called him by
name and placed him under arrest
O'Brien was taken so completely by sur
prise that he admitted his identity at once,
and made no effort to escape. "You can't
do anything with me, anvway," he said.
"The extradition law wasn't in force when
I made my play." In an hour O'Brien had
sent for Arthur Newton, the celebrated
criminal lawyer, who will make a fight to
resist extradition. Detective Beilly intends
to take McCormack back next week.
Still another man was arrested in London
this week in the person of Colonel Lorimer
Graham, who is said to have served during
the Civil War on the Confederate side. Gra
ham has long been a resident of London,
where his principal occupation has been
borrowing money from visiting Americans,
He is charged with attempting to pass a
fictitious check.

The clatter of pots' and pans and general
discomfort echoed as usual in the Quarter
Sessions on Saturday, and Anna Noftinsky,
a septuagenarian, was a whole show in
herself.
Ida Lavine complained-that her husband,
Solomon Lavine, and she lived together in
Bussia 2 years, when he left her and went
to England to push his fortune, promising
to send for her when he got a foot
hold. Finally Ida began to think
Solomon wasn't pushing very hard,
and she followed him. In England
she learned that he had gone to the United
States and she kept on following, coming
np with him in Pittsburg. She said that
after the rennion Solomon and she lived
happily together for a few days, when his
mother came and took him away. For a
time, however, he continued to pay the
rent and gave her $3 a week beside, but
finally quit and left her to take care of herself
and a 6-year-old child, which pledge of
affection was produced and mdentified in
court
Solomon, in defense, said he could not
make a living in Bussia and came to this
country, and when he heard that Ida had
come to England he sent for her to come to
the United States, where they were re
united. She Conld Give the-Czar Pointers.
Solomon said he had found Ida as hard'to
get along with as the Czar of Bussia. He
said he only made 8 a week, but Judge
Ewingtold him he must pay that amount

The testimony went to show that Mary
Coll was a grandmother, though her appear
ance was quite youthful. She was after
George Coll and some surprise was elicited
when George's lawyer, D. C. Beardon, suc
ceeded in eliciting the statement that one of
the children for whom subsistence was
asked, was married. George works in
the Lockhat Steel Works at McKee's Bocks.
He makes good wages, but objected to liv
ing with his wife on the ground that she
drank intoxicants to excess.
Mary Call, in response, burst into tears
and said she never drank liquor until her
husband placed 'the temptation before her
by keeping the stuff in the house forhis own
use. Judge Ewing demanded of George
if he drank, and on his admission that he
did take a glass occasionally, the Judge
told him that Mary had as much right to
drink as he, perhaps more, as her hours of
work were longer. Five dollars a week and
payment of costs was the ultimatum of the
Court
Anna Noftinsky was a jolly old girl who
said she was about 73 years of age, which is
11 years more than her husband pleaded to
in his case. She stated that after she and
William had been married something over
40 years he left her to paddle her own canoe.

asked Anna it she didn't drink rather too
much for domestio peace, she laughed

Mr. Noftinsky said he was a native of

the departure, or his abandonment, was
caused by his wife's drunkenness and abuse
of him. She would not cook for him, he
said, and for the sake of peace he had shitted

it went for drink, and when

rather too convivial.
Judge Ewing began to interrogate Mrs.
Noftinsky as to where the $1,400 she had
from her husband a year ago had gone and
she intimated that it was none of his busi

there was a doubt as to whether she
meant the contempt and disrespect for him
or the Court, and as her remarks were ac
companied by a hysterical laugh, no ex
planation was asked. The costs were put
on the husband, but the Court remarked
something ominously to the effect that Mrs.
Noftinsky had better keep away from court
hereafter; She was let down easily, doubt
less on account of her utter inability
to appreciate the dignity that doth hedge a
Court when it sees fit to put up the barri

To one sailing northwest from Sitka,
Alaska, in brilliant weather there is re

cent coast scenery in the world. As soon

summlt'ofMt St. Elias. Its distance whea
first seen in clear weather is nearly 180
miles. I have myself seen it rising well
above the horizon at a distance of 150
