The Birmingham, (Ala. .!, (liein.) aaya that " there are a great many more of the Randall ort of IH-mocrats down South than Ctilontd Watterstin and Mr. Mills seem to think." The Atlanta W rtilutiwi, also IV-mocratic, aeaking of Mills reading Randall out of the party, ways: " If he in n-ady now to read out of the party all who tlo not agree to hia tar iff viewn, w hat would he do if he had the machinery ofthe most important cinuuiit toeof the Ibiuseat his command?

There is plenty of fun ahead, and there will be some lively hustling when Colonel Watterson'g jsilicv to "wile Mr. Randall by the seal of the breeches anil pitch hiiu over into tlie Republican camp, w here he btdongs," is carried into execution.

Here in Pennsylvania it pro ftws to haveti.-clartsl at its late C-onven-tion in favor of Protection, while in Ken tucky and Ohio it demands the abolitiorr of protective duties; and yet in all three of these staU-s the claim is made that the party is a unit in principle. Falsehood at oii t iu jsjsition on the tariff in no new thing with the Democracy, and he is a very silly man who can be ftsilt-d into be lieving that it is really anything else than a Knee-trade lrty. The annual rt-jmrt of Pension Commis sioner Black is an interesting document. It shows that during the past year the names of 5o,U4 persons were added to the list of pensioners, Iteing the largest nunils r of certificates ever issutnl in one year ; that the total namber of pension ers now is 4(X;,KC,Jnd tliat to pay these and the exM nses of the bureau an appro priation of 87!t,U4"i:W will be required f.rthe current year, against f r.s.roli-K) for the year just closed. The Commis sioner recommends various etiangi in the pension laws, some to inert-a-sc the amount paid to different clawsei of Jieu sioners, and others to improve the workings of the bureau. The Dairy inU restsof the I'nited States has rvached very great proimrtiolis, the capital invested being more than .'!,t(", 000, or alsiut five times the aggregate of the liunking capital. The numlier of milch co is il,tK.XlO, giving 7;55t, nOti.tMi gallons of milk yearly. Some thing over half of this is made iuto but tcr, and the balamv is made into cheese or consumed by the men, women, and babies without going through any other pns-ess. The value of the ilairy product of the country last year is estimated at vVyikin.iMi, w hich exceeds the value of the w heat crop and nearly equals the val ue ofthe yearly corn crop. As some one has put it, " ('"m is king, but the cow is t jut vn." When the licpublicans assumed the reins of National tJoveninient in Iil, they found a Iwnkruiit Treasury and an inability to borrow money at twelve per cent. When they went out of power in ls." they left an immense surplus in the Treasury and the government able to raise any amount of money at four jut cent. Bankruptcy was brought ujion the Nation by the Democratic Free-trade "tariff for revenue mly" w hile prperi ty was restored, and a surplus accumulat ed by a llcpublican Protective tariff. The IiemiHTats Is-ing again in power, are la Isiring t i break down the jirotective fea ture ofthe tariff and return again to the Free-trade revenue tariff, and certainly to bankruptcy for our manufacturing indus tries. The prolosed Revenue law framed by the Commissioners, aps'inted by the late legislature, an.I which w ill prolwbly Ik- submitted tuan extra session tube convened this fall.: is substantially the same as the bill which failed to become a law last spring lvcause it lacked the sig nature ofthe presiding officer ofthe S-n-ate. I'nder the defeated bill tnvnsKirta tion corjHinitions were taxed 3 mills on their capital stock and judgments and mortgages and 8 mills on their gross re ceipt. Thisbill imposes a3-mill franchise tax on these corporations, baseil on the amount of fumletl indebttslness and capi tal sUs-k, as represented bv provrty in tne state amounting to about s4'J,liOO. (KHi, promising a tax of fi.'n'O.IMKl. In so far as the bills relate to the taxation of money at interest they are identical, projiosing a three-mill tax on the actual value of nearly even- form of interest Ivaring indebtedness. The provision for the return to the counties of one-half ihe anionnt received from this lax is also re tained. The Philadelphia .Von says: " Now that Mr. Carlisle has formally announced himself as a candidate for re-election to the speakership that maOr may be looked upon as practically settled." It will lie rememls-red that the right of Mr. Carlisle to a seat in the next Congress is contested by Mr. Thoelv, the I-aW can didate, who has taken and filed the evi dence to prove bis election, while Mr. Carlisle has taken no evideiitv, nor done anything to substantiate his claim to the certificate which he holds. The declara tion therefore of the lUont that "the matter is practically settled " and fcluit Mr. Carlisle is a candidate for Sjienker, hsiks as if a determination has lvn ar rived at on tln part of the IVtuiK-ratie majority in the House, to seat Mr. Car lisle whether fairly eH-cted or not- The mere assumption, in advance ofthe bear ing in the case, that Mr. Tins-lie has no rights that the majority is bound to re sjiect, is an insult to that gentleman and a travesty on justitv. Moreover, it is, to say the least of it, a gross brcacn of pro priety on the part of Mr. Carlisle, to offer himself as a candidate for re-election as presiding oilitvr of the House, until the contest for his seat has been officially de-i-.rminetl. We trust for the sake of fair play, if for no other reason, the Kitnnl is mistaken in its assumption that this case has Ihvii prv-judgvd and pre-deteriniiicd. Whether Governor Beaver w ill call an extra session of the Legislature has not yet Urn determined, and we hope it w ill not lv, without mature delils-ration. We have faith in the iovemor's judgment on this question, if left free to act, but we observe an attempt is Iving made in cer tain quarters to forestall it, and commit him if jMissilile, Ivfure public sentiment has lven voiced. The Statecan get along for the coming year, if due economy is re garded, without the additional revenue provided for in the bill formulated by the Legislative commission, and it is to be feared that the redundant revenue that it w ill create will lead to extravagant and wasteful sppropriations by the next leg islature. In a matter of this kind, where there is no pressing necessity, it is well to make haste slowly, ami look scnitinir ingly over the ground iK-fore we leap. It is true that the bulk of the taxes provid ed for are to be raised off corporation, but it is equally true that, coristrations generally contrive to more than " even np" w ith the public in matters of taxa tion. Kxtra sessions are dangerous things to ftMil with, as Governor Pattison learned to his cost. They are expensive, unpopular, and mighty uncertain as to results. There s no telling w hether, af ter the exjienditnre of several hundred thousand dollars, the I-egislature may not reject the bill as prepared for its sanc tion. Any attempt to put it through uuder whip and spur would prove disas trous, and should not bethought of. The situation demands careful consideration, and. we trust that the tlovemor will lie stow this upon it before he makes up his mind to act. The problem of the Speakership will lie much complicated if the Free-traders put forward Mr. Carlisle as their candi date, as they at present seem to intend. Already even his party friends are begin ning to find fault w ith that selection, in view of the contest for hia seat. It is true that a precedent has been found in Monroe's administration for electing a SjH-aker whtMe t is contested ; but a score of precedents would not make the prtswding reasonable, No house should elect to the Speakership a man whose right to a seat is seriously challenge!. Such an election is in some sense a deci sion upon the contest before the contest ant has been heard. It would jeopardiise Mr. Thoel's legal rights, by pre-jodging his case. And in this instance the case for the contestant is much too strong to be treated as entitled to no consideration. It w ill be shown that the retuma from the interior counties of the Covington dis trict were kept ois-n for tlays after the law required them to be closed, that several of the officials in these counties were not qualified to act in connection with the elections, and that the usual vote for the Democratic candidate in one coun ty w as more than doubled to overcome the majority for Mr. Thoelie in river coun ties. And the recent State election has a'ided to the force of these allegations. When the first returns were published, and it was claimed that Mr. Thoebe was ejected, even Republicans said: " It is ntit possible, for it is in Kentucky." But the large vote for Mr. Bradley has satis fied everybody that Mr. Thoebe'a claims may be much more thah visionary, and that he may be quite right in his conten tion that he had a majority.

They Are Displayed in Pomp Bea ver and Cleveland Meet. PaiunixraiA, Sept. 15. Th first of the centennial days broke with genertMis prom ises. At dawn the thousands of wistful eyes turned to the eastern horizon were gladden ed to meet abroad band of misty but hopeful light, the ever brightening barianger of sun ny skies. But the city was atir long before the sun had dispersed the clouds of early morning. So vast a concourse of people has never been seen en masse on this continent before, even the numerical glory ofthe great Pennsylvania day in ISTti at the Centennial of the Declaration paling before the mighty multitude which from every State and al most from every clime gathered to witness the crowing event of the country's first cen tury ofaunstitutional lilierty. , : ' ' " Even in the remotest district of the city, as of sheer necessity uism the great thorough fans, business was suspended, shops closet and all who. could leave their homes trooji ed to the common point of interest, where over 3o0,iJ0 strangers were gathered. Every window upon the long line of the broad thoroughfare, whether it pierced the walls of a church, gave light to a private dwelling or ornamented the fiont of a public building formed a group of human faces ami w as gracefully drajied with American flags or patriotic bunting. The great human sea swayed to and fro by the momentum of its own weight and vastness, but divided as the Red St-a made a path for the chosen people so as to allow the centre of Broad street an unencumbered and ojs-n path for the great procession, the great feature of the day's cel ebration. A FVliEVIST rvs-T PKTI EIKIl. When it is said that the iudustrial parade was ten miles long and five hours and R-half in motion a detailed description of it will not be asked for. Industrial processions are not strange to Pittsburg and this did not ditTer greatly from the tariff day exhibitions except that it was bigger and the exhibits illustrat ing various manufacturing pnxwises were more elaixirate. The labium representing the discovery of America, the hatlla of Lex ington, the surrender of Coruwallis, the sign ing of the iH-claratiou of IndeK-ndeiii e and the like were also very attractive feuliin-s of the Kirude. The most exjiensive and coiu plete exhibit was that of the Pennsylvania Railroad illustrating the rogress in the means of tninsirtalioii from the pack mule to the rlor car. It was headed by the first liH-omotive in America and closed with a ltHjinotive of to-day drawn hy 2H horses and followed by a full trsin of cars-baggage, mail, express, coach, dimiing,aiid Pullman sleep er manned by crews" of hoys.

THE rKOOHAli PERFECT. That such a railc started within twenty minutes of schedule time, covered its route without any tedious delays and there was not an accident worthy of the name and scarcely so many arrests as an ordinary Hit unlay night furnishes, is the highest possible compliment to the efficiency of the manage ment and the diameter of a thoroughly rep resentative American crown. There was no lack of distinguished looks-on, beginning with the Supreme Court and the General of the Army and running down through a bril liant array of tiovernors.

The President, much to everylmdy's re gret, could not come nntil this evening and so missed entirely the most characteristic and instructive feature of the entire celebra tion. He and Mrs Cleveland did not arrive until this evening. The Presidential party, consisting of the President, Mrs. Cleveland, Secretary Bayard and Col. ami Mrs. Lamont left Washington at 4 o'clock. At Wilmington they were met by the Philadelphia Reception Committee and escorted to this city. The City Tro p escorted the party from the depot to the La fayette Hotel. An immense crowd had gath ered there and cheered and called so per sistently that the President and Mrs. Cleve land appeared on the balcony and bowed their acknowledgements amidst tremendous cheering. Subsequently, in conversation. President Cleveland expressed himself high ly gratified by the cordiality of bis nivjition. TUE 1-MiKAXT or PKis.HK.-H. Philadelphia, Sept. 15. Thecivic and in dustrial tlisjilay, representing the progress of the trades and manufactures thnmgh the century, eclipses anything tif the kind ever know n. Floats to the number of 3mt, each bearing a representation of some particular branch of industry, were inline, with l"s hands of music, 12.000 men and 3,ilu0 horses. Col. L. A. Snow-den, the Chief Marshall, rode at the head ofthe procession, accompanied by his staff nnmliering 50 aids, a standard bearer and two trumpeters. Next came the I'nited States Marine Band, followed by a beautiful banner, representing Columbia (minting to the past with one hand and to tlie present with the other. The former was represented by old imjilements and condi tions, and the latter by those of today. The parade from this Kint was divided into 23 divisions, each under the charge of an assist ant marshal and bis aids. TIIK IIEC0BAT1ONS. The decorators strivetl for navel effects, and in this they were highly successful. Some houses were almost covered with hemic stat ues of Columbia surrounded by the Hags of all nations, while other fronts were almost covered with heroic statues of Columbia sur rounded hy the flags of all nations, while other fronts were completely concealed with bunting. Tlie Odd Fellows' Hall exhibited a banner announcing that place as the " sst where Franklin drew lightning from the clouds in I752," and at other points busts of Washington were mounted in front ofthe houses and irofusely decorated. Nearly all tlie side streets leading into North Broad were roped off and were filled with trucks on which huge tiers of seats were erected and raj.idly sold. The criLsh on some of the stands was so great that a num ber of ladies fainted. Amid the gay holiday attire of the streets there is nothing more consicuous and ar tistic than the three triumphal arches that Sin Broad and Chestnut streets. The Bn lad street arch the principal one, is almost opio site the main reviewing stand, which will he occupied by the president and his party up on their arrival. It was erected by tlie cen tennial commission and is W feet high, springing from each curb; is of plain semi circular form and segmented on the south side with illuminated shields ofthe 38 States, forming the l uion, and on the north with the names ofthe States, tlie shield and name of each being back to bark. The thirteen original States occupy the middle position of the group, and the others are placed along side in the onler in which they came Into the Cnion. Surmounting the arch is a mam moth device consisting of an American eagle and a stand of national colors. The scene at the grand reviewing stand, situated oppjsh tlie Cuion League Club House, on Broad street, just below Sanson), was a grand one. The stands iai eitltcr si.le of Broad streeet w ere filled with icoile and the gay colors of the ladies antl children's raiment lent lieauty to tlie magnificent and elaborate i lei -o rut ions of the various stands themselves. There were sixteen telegraph stations along the route ofthe j tannic, which were estab lished for the purpose of communicating from one end of the line to the other, and just as a telegram flashed over the wire, an nouncing that the pageant had started from Broad aud Ilauphin streets at lu:25 a. m., (iovernor Beaver rode by in his carriage and was greeted with a hearty round of applause. OOV. SEAVKS'S BSCETTIOS. (Joverner Beaver shook bands with fully 15,011 people this evening at his public re oetriou in one of the galleries of the Acad emy ofthe Fine Arts, and numbered among his visitor no less distinguished a personage than the president of the Vnited States. The governor was assisted by the centennial commission's committee on invitations and aids, the introductions being made by Messrs. John Huggard and John W. Woodside. President Cleveland arrived at 10 minutes before 10 o'clock, atvomjajiixi by Secretaries Bayard antl Fairchildand the cittiscits' com mittee on the reeeition of distinguisiied gmvts. The president entered tlie reception room arm-in-arm with Chairman Thomp son, by whom he was presented to tlie gov ernor. The usual compliments were ex changed, the president, sjieaking in an al most inaudible voice. ; W hen the handshake ing had ceased, Governor Beaver waved bis hand to an elevatiou behind him on which were grouped several governors aud other distinguished guests. " Go iiHn the plat form. .Mr. Cleveland," he aiii 'You will find some old friends there, and make some new ones, I hope." President Cleveland at once found himself the center of n admiring throng, and was, at the same time, the recipient of warm greetings from those in the governors' line. Finding accommodations on the platform somew hat limited, lie stepjied down by the side of Governor Beaver, where the mtrodue tions and handshaking continued for fully 15 minutes, when other pressing engagements demanded his departure. Secretary s Bayard and Fairchild also enjoyed a fair share of attention. Ex-President Hayes arrived about ten minutes after 9 and was soon follow by Gen eral Sheridan, who had just come from a camp fire given in his honor by Post 2, G. A.

KEPORKTHB rAKAPE. Broad street from to end presented a sight never to be forgotten. The raiment of ladies aud children lent a pretty effect to the picture and with the clear sky, the wide street, the handsome uniforms of the military and imlice, it was an inspiring scene. Thestands were tilled to overllowing. On the reviewing stand there was a congregation of distingu ished visitors. At 11 o'elixk the City Troop of calvary came down Broad street escorting President Cleveland, who occupied an ojien barouche with Thomas M. Thompson, Chairman of the Committee on the Reception of Disting uished Guests, and Mayor Edwin H. Fitter. Behind them came a carriage with Secretary of Slate Bayard, t teorge W. t 'ailds, Secretary Fain hild anil Amos R. Litte. other car riages followed with distinguished guests, among whom was Kuthford B. Hayes. When the line reached the reviewing stand the Presiilc nt's carriage halted ami as he alighted to take his place on the reveiwing balcony of the grand-stand the cavalrymen slimd " right alHiut face" and saluted him. There was a continuous round of cheers as the President rode by. anil be bowed his acknowledgement of the compliment as he assed each stand. After saluting the Pres ident the City Troop jiroceeded down Broad street to take its place in the procession. Just behind tlie President the venerable Hannibal Haniliu walked arm-in-arm with Thomas Donaldson to their places on the stand. Then came Guv. Hill and staff, of New York. All of them were thereceipieuts of round after round of applause. The Pres ident ocoujiied a beautifully-carved mahog any chair, jiresented to him for th is occasion by a prominent furniture firm of the city and around him sat Secretaries Bayard and Fairchild. Gov. Hill and ex-President Hayes. Shortly after It Mrs. Cleveland appeared on the balcony of the Lafayette Hotel, fol lowed by Private Secretary Lamont and wife and two or three guests. Mrs. Cleveland re ceived an enthusiastic rounJ of ajiplaiLse as she apiiearcd in the front of the balcony dressed in a handsome black silk dress, with white insertions and a lwautiful white feath er adorning her hat. THE FKATl'RE OE TUE DAY. At just 11:20 Gen. I'hilSlieridan, mount ed on a handsome sorrel horse, came up the street at the head of the vast cavalcade of military, preceded by a stjtiad of mounted reserves. As he passed the reviewiiig-stand the President arose and tipped his silk hat. It was then one continuous round of hnzzarhs Gen. Sheridan, notwithstanding the plaudits ofthe multitude, rode erect, looking neither to the right nor left. Behind Gen. Sheridan came the City.Trooji of cavalry ou their prancing steeds and they presented a beauti ful apjicaraiice. As the cavalrymen assed the grand-stand, each ofthe companies went through the drilling evolutions with a pre cision that was amazing. Then came a handsome'iy-uniformcd band of the St-tte milita playing patriotic airs. Next tti them were the dismounted United States Light Artillery and directly after them came the mounted Heavy Artillery with their nlish ed carriages and shinning cannons. Admir al Luce rode at the head of the column of the naval turnout and preceded the Marine Band, who, with their handsome uniforms of red hats and w hite trousers, marching in four columns the entire witlth of the street, presented a beautiful and imposing sight. Following closely were the detachment of Marines from the North Atlantic squadron, now anchored in the waters ofthe Deleware. As they drew up "conitany front" in front of the stand they broke into "eights," their evolutions being models of precision. They looked more like automatic fignres moved by mechanism than human beings. The life saving service followed them with a pretty disdlay. THE STATE TKtXieS. Gov. Biggs, the gray haired and venenihle I K'lawarian. tame up at the front of the Del aware trtsijis. As each jilatoou passed the President their commander gnieefully raised his hat ami saluted him, receiving in return a bow of recognition from the Commander-in-Chief of all the troois. As Gov. Beaver, of Pennsylvania, passed by thousands of throats oH-ned and sent up a royal cheer for the veteran who left a limb on the field of battle as a tribute to his loyalty. Behind him came nearly to.iKio Pennsylvania militia. All theconiianiesmarclH9d 'comjiany front," until they reached Sunsorn street. The bu glers sounded their calls as they passed in review as a salute to the President, and each company received an appreciative bow. Broad street was one solid mass of humanity, many lieople coming at daybreak in onler to secure even standing loom. . Company K, of the Fifteenth Pennsylva nia Regiment, carried a tattered battleflag at their head anil received a perfect ovation. The flag itself was simply a mass of flutter ing rags, as were also two flags carried by the Dntpiense Greys, of tlie Eighteenth Regi ment of Pittsburgh, who received consider able attention by reason of their marching, as also did the Fourteenth from that city. When Gov. Foraker appeared at the head of the Fourteenth Ohio Regiment he was obliged to keep his head uncovered for a long time in order to acknowledge- the voci ferous cheers of his friends, who seemed to be numerous. The Fourteenth carried with them the battle-scarred flags which were left them as a legacy by the late Rebellion. Gov. Ijirrabee and bis staff at the head of the Governor s Foutguanls, of Iowa, bowed to the President and also to Mr. Cleve laiiilhis they rode hy. Shortly after the New York Troops had passed Mrs. Cleveland, Private Secretary I -anion t and wife, Mr. Drexel and others who were with Mrs. Cleveland on the L&fav ette Hotel balcony, retired and were driven to the Bellevue Hotel, where they took luncheon with Mr. and Mrs. George W. Chiltls, the invitation to lunulieoo at that hour liaving been accepted earlier in the day. THE VBAJSD ARMY. The end of the parade was occupied by tlie Grand Army of the Republic, and, as each Post passed in front of the stand, its com mantler gave a salute to the President, and was recogniaed. Post 2. of this city, carried ill the center of its column twenty one of the flags raptured by them during the war. They were a mass of tattered and torn colors, lull they were hollered hy the Siecia tors with dicers whose echo seemed to never tlie. 4t was m True aptR-araiicr tliey maiie. Some walking with the aitl of crincltes. aud all of them Wearing on their visage- the un erring finger-marks of time, they were a pic ture in contrast with the youthful militia men who preceded them. Their platoons of men told a story. They bad seen service, while their jiredwesstirs in the line of march were waiting to see it. In their api-araiice and drill they displayed the knowledge of niiliU-Jy life which they had bought with years ut' privatum and suffering and many of them had uiid a still higher price in the lutss-of un arm or a limb. Daring the time they were passing the President remained standing, with his bind uncovered, and, an swered each salute as it was given. Orders had previously been issued by the Deiirt nicnt Commander G. A. K. that only Post Commanders should salute, the in line to walk facing ahead. This was not strictly adhered to, however, and many of those of the rank and file passed by the stand with uncovered IhtkIs. Ir was just a quarter to 3 when the last of the Grand Army passed by. They may well be proud of their display, and that it was appreciated by the vast con course of sjiectators was plainly evident from their demonstrations. EXTENT or THE PARADE. To give an idea of the enormous propor tions of the parade, it may be said that the following is about the mmilier of men par ticipating, as near as could be judged from the stand as they jiassed hy -. United Suites troojis, SOU ; Deleware, one full regiment ; Pennsylvania, three brigades, about 8,000 men ; New Jersey, 11.500; Georgia, 50; Con necticut, 100; Massachusetts, 1,200; Mary land, 1,000 ; South Carolina, 150; New HaiujHhire, 150 ; Virginia, 300 ; New York, 200; Ohio, one full regiment; Maine, too ; West Virgina, 2oo ; Iowa, 50: District of Columbia, Ki; Grand Army, 7,000, making with their bands and others nearly 30,oo0. After the end of the parade had tiassed. the First City Troop of Philadelphia Cavalry were drawn up in double columns for the purpose of escorting the Presidential iiarty back to their hotel, which was less than half a square distant. As the President descend ed the stejis to the street leaning on the arm of ex-Minister John A. Kassnn, he was greeted with tumultuous applause, people yelling themselves almost hoarse in their anxiety to show their appreciation of his presence. Directly 'behind the President and Mr. Kasson came Admiral Line and hisstatf. When all the jiarty reached the street thev walked almost in the middle of the street to their quarters at the hotel, pre ceded and followed by jiortiotis of the City Trtsip. As they walked along there was one continual round of cheering, to w hich the President rcsjionded by removing his bat. Statements Made at the Meeting of B. Sl O. Railroad Directors. Baltimore.

ANARCHISTS MUST DIE. Decision of the Lower Courts affirm ed The Execution to Take Place November ft. Chicauo, Sept. 15 It is just announced that tlie Jllin-iis supreme court, now in ses sion at Ottawa, has affirmed the judgement of the lower court which condemned the con victed anarchists to the gallows, Tne news was received with intense iuteiest in this city and thousands are reading the bulletin boards of the newsiers. At !::. Justice Magriider began the an nouncement of the decision ill the anarchists case. The court announced: -'In this case the jutlgment in the court below is affirmed as to all, anil as to each aud every one of the defendants. An opinion has been prepared setting forth the reasons of the affirmation of the judgment. The opinion is now han ded to the clerk to be filed." The opinion referred to was written by Justice Magmder. who comes from the Chi cogo district. The opinion covers 250 pages of closely written nutnuscriit, antl contains Sfi.tM) words. It is undoubtedly the most important decision the Illinois supreme conrt has ever been railed upon to give, lawyers say that the docuineut is an able exsisition of the law and its previous interpretations by eminent American jurists. In this work Justice Magmder was ably assisted by each of the six other distinguished judges, who made him their spokesman and through him expressed their unanimous decision. Chief Justine Sheldon then announced that he concurred in the opinion. Before pro nouncing sentence, however, he called ujon Justice Milkey, who rose and said : " It is not my intention to offer a separate opinion, as I should have done. I desire to avail myself of this occasion to say that while I concur in the conclusions reached, as also in the general views as entered in -the opinion filed, I do not wish to be understood as holding that the record is free from error for I do not think it is. I am nevertheless, of the opinion, that none of the errors com plained of is of such serious character as to require a reversal of the judgment. In view ofthe number of defendants on trial, the great length of time consumed in the trial, the vast amount of testimony offered and passed ttjioii hy the court, and the almost numberless nilings the court was required to make, the wonderment to me is that the er rors were not more numerous and of more serious character than they are. In short, after having fully examined the record and given the questions arising on it my best thought, with an earnest and conscientious desire to faithfully discharge my duty, I am fully sutisfied that the opinion reached vin dicatesthe law and diss complete justice be tween the people of the state and the deft ml ants, fully warranted by the law and the evidence." Chief Justice Sheldon then announced the formal sentence, as follows : " In this case, the court orders that the sentence of tiie siqierior court of Cook coun ty, of the tlefenilants in ihe indictment Au gust Sjiies, Samuel Fieldeli, R. Parsons. Ailoljih Fisher, Engle and Louis Linng be carried into effect by the sheriff of t'ook county, on the 11th day of Novemls-r next, on Friday, between the hours of 10 o'clock, forenoon and 4 o'clock afterinsui. on that day." The judgment of the court was unani mous. they lf.ak.v of their voom. Chicauo, III., Scjt. 14. The first official information that reached this city of the de cision in the case of the anarchists was a tel egram from the court clerk at Ottawa to the state attorney's office here. It read : Anarchist cases affirmed ; cxiM-tition No veuilier 11. Mr. Pureell, of the state attorney's office, ran at once to the jail with the dcspali h. Following on his heels was a messenger car rying a telegram for August Spies that hud been sent from Ottawa bv an agent of the anarchists. The turnkey who took the des patch to cell No. 25 ami shoved it through the liars lingered a moment to watch the ef fect it would have on Spies. The anarchist took the message, glanced firmly at the turnkey, and then withdrew to the darker entl of the cell. In two minutes or so he culled gently to the old man who sits as death watch outside his barred disir, anil asked him to hand the yellow telegraph sheet to Parsons. From him it went to all the others and at last reached Necbe, who is only under sentence of imprisonment. Newspaier men have Iss-n rigorously shut out from the condemned men, and all obser vations had to he taken from the ontside of the cage, ulnnit ten yards from the cell door. It could be dimly seen that each of the con demned men made ostentatious efforts at coolness and bravado. They took seats at their cell doors, and read newsaers and hooks, smoked cigars, aud once Linng, the bomb maker, whistled. Their wives ami friends hail Is-en with them for an hour during the morning, but about thirty minutes before the news came they were nil excluded and the prisoners locked up, each by himself. Examined the Bustle. New York, Sejitemlier 10. A seizure was made yesterday by one of tlie Custom House inspeVtresscs, Mrs. L. Morgan, which seemed to indicate that the new hiea of having fe male detectives to Jirotect Uncle Sam's pock et is of more value than some jieople think. Mrs. Morgan was examining the trnnksof a Mrs. Martien, of Cincinnati. Ohio, a pas senger on tlie Guinn line steamer Nevada. The insiectress was struck with the ap-ar-ance of several jiat-kages done up in soiled towels which Mrs. Martien said contained simply soiled clothing. They were found to conceal 170 yanls of valuable silk. A silk table spread and a hue droit skirt came out of another jtackage. Noticing that Mrs. Martien wore a bustle of unstial size, Mrs. Morgan asked her to step iuto a private room on the pier, where the bustle was removed, notwithstanding the fair smuggler's protestations. In tlie hustle were found twenty-four jit ces of worsted binding, five pieces of black lace, five point luce collars, fifty-four jiitres of silk binding, twelve pieces of watered silk ribbon, six jet bead ornaments, a Ihix of per fumery, a silver watch, two pairs of bracelets a jiuir of toilet ornaments, a dozen packages of French hooks and eyes, one dress pattern embroidered in tinsel on silk, thirty yards of tinsel embroidered silk crape and a black silk dress skirt. How so many things could be put into one bustle is one of the mysteries that only a fe male mind is capable of solving. Insjiectress Morgan also found 2ii pairs of silk dress shields in the smaller of the two trunks. Mrs. Martien acknowledged that she was a dressmaker and that she intended to smuggle the things through the Custom House. She saitl she hail been in the habit of going to Europe every year and always brought some things liack. She had never been caught he fore antl she feh very melancholy over the loss of her projierty. The seizure is valued at from $110 to $ 1 ,000. A Tragedy In Maryland. Baltimore, Sept 15.
