The Eastern War.
The Chinese lost their largest and finest
war-ship, the ChenTjen. Nov. 18th, by
an accident. She ran upon one of their
own torptedoee in the harbor of Wei-Hai,
and was blown np.
On Friday dispatches were received an
nouncing the capture of Port Arthur, the
Chiel Naval Station of China by the Japan
ese forces after eight hours of continuous j
fighting.
The second Japanese ermy. under the
command of Field Mareb.il Count Oyama,
minister of war. consisted of about 30,000
men, and when this force arrived off Re
gents Sword promontory, it was divided
into two detachments, one of which, aided
by th- Japanese fleet, operated against
T alien wan, while tbe other directed its
movements agoinst Kin Chow, on the
western side of the promontory, some
miles north of Port Arthur. Talienwan
and Km Chow were both captured, after
which the army again combined and the
march on Port Arthur was commenced
Sfcveral engagements of minor importance
took place along tbe route, but according
to trie reports, the Japanese were invaria
blv successful. The roads leading north
w'ard from Port Arthur were supposed to
have been mined by the Chinese and the
Japanese commander therefore declined
to take the risk of marching bis troops
along tbem. Consequently, they were
compelled to cut roads through the forests
to allow of the passage of their artillery,
ammunition trains, etc. The march was
thus necessarily slow.
- Dispatches a few days ago stated that
the Japanese were close to the city an
had attacked the Chinese omposu, driv
ing them back to their entrenchments. It
was also said that the Japanese attacked
the entrenchments three times, but were
repulsed each time. It is evident that
later attacks must have been made and
that the outposts were compelled to fall
upon Port Arthur. Several times the
town is reported to have been captured,
but later dispatches have shown that these
reports were inaccurate and that the Jap
auexe were conducting their operations
against the place with great carefa ness
and that they intended, when the real at
tack was made, that it should be success
ful. Che Foo, from which place the dis
patch announcing the fall of Port Arthur
is sent, is a Chinese city on the north ooast
of tbe Shan Tung promontory, some nine
ty miles south of Port Arthur, from which
it is separated by tbe gulf of Pe Chi L .
Tbe London Timet of Sunday published
a dispatch from Hiroshima. Japan, giving
the report of Field Marshall Count Oyama,
whose army captured Port Arthur. The
report says:* ,
"The second army began the attack on
the landward forts at Port Arthur at dawn,
November 21. The Chinese ofiered a verv
strong resistance until, finally, we seized
the fort to the west of the cavalry and ar
tillery Darade grounds at half-past, eight
o'clock. We took the fort on Golden Hill
at 4 o'clock in tbe afternoon of November
22. All the other forts were taken. Over
200 Japanese officers and men w.re killed
or wounded. Tbe Chines- loss and the
number ot prisoners is still unknown.
The spoils are abundant and include a
large number of large guns and a quan
tity of ammunition. Tbe Chinese gurnson
at the lowest estimate was 20,000 men.
A Cbee Foo dispatch to tbe Times says
tuat Port Arthur is still burning, twelve
Japanese warships have been seen there.
The Chinese fleet is at Wei Hai Wei.
A Shanghai dispatch to the Times etates
that it is reported from New Chang that
the Chinese army commanded by Gen
Sung has been divided. One part is firm
ly holding Motbienling and constantly re
pnlsing part of tbe first Japanese army.
The other part is making a forced march
to Port Arthur to attaik the Japanese
there. A part of the first Japanese armj
is following the Chinese on the way to Port
Arthur.
Washington, D. C ,Nov. 25.-Additional
details of the capture of Port Arthur by
the Japanese were received by the navy
department to-day. They came in a cable
gram from Real Admiral Carpenter of the
China station on board the Baltimore,
which was in the vicinity of Chee Foo and
Bailed for Port Arthur as soon as tbe capit
ulation was announced. It follows:
••Chee Foo (no date) delayed in China
The Japanese array engaged on November
21, was about 15,000. The Chinese army
13,000. Japanese lost about 200 killed and
wounded. Two thousand Chinese lives
were lost. The Chinese army escaped.
Nothing is destroyed. The Japanese fleet
took no part in the eogagement."
GREAT BEITIAH has refused to recognize
therightg of Nicaragua on tbe Mosquito
coast. This means trouble, and twoof
onr war ships have been sent to Blnefield*
to protect American interests.
A Capital Sensation.
Mrs. Virginia 8. Orth of Washington
D. C., has asked the law to separate her
from Henry A Orth, a capitalist, society
leader ana a popular member of the lead
ing olnbs
Mrs. Orth vas Miss Virginia Stout, one
of the belles of Boston, where she was mar
ried to Orth in February, 1889, by Rev.
Phillips Brooks. She had already visited
"Washington, and her going there as the
wile of a rich and popular young man made
a stir in social life. Tney took up their
residence in an attractive house in Hi'lyer
Place, and at. once plunged into the gaiet
ies of the capital.
Things got a little too guy for tbe hus
band, so it is said, about two years ago, and
it is said by bis friends tbat bis discovery
drove him to drink. Mrs. Or b charges
that he became an habitual drunkard; that
he frequently threatened her life, and that
oa .everal occasions ho struck and beat her.
Mr Ortb's acquaintances say tbat his con"
dact, however rude, was not without pro
vocation.
It l«s said tbat during tbe navul rendrzvous
Mrs. Orth and ber mother went to Old Point
escorted by a very prominent United States
Senator and a leading Representative from
Pennsylvania, and tbat Orth followed them
auu attacked his wife in tbe ( ffic-e of the
Hotel Bygeia. Alter this Mr Orth took
his little girl, who was born in 1890, and
placed ber with friends in Baltimore The
attentions of the Senator and Representa
tive from Pennsylvania to the handsome
motner and daughter were continued, and,
it. is said, frequently quarrels in the Orth
family resulted. At Berkeley Springs W
Va last (September, Orth is reported to
have severely bwaten bis wife. Mrs Orth
says tbat be has frequently threatened to
shoot her, and that she fears he will yet do
so.
When Mr. Orth returned from a business
trip a f»w nays ago he found the Hillyer
plate house closed, and a note from his
wife saying tbat she had left him with
intention ot suing for divorce. The papers
in the suit were tiled to day; cruelty and
dissipation being the grounds on which the
Tbraict is asked.
Mr Orth at first said he would not contfst
the case, but would go away and live in
England. Il is understood now tbat be will
file a cross bill and make the charges
against his wife A bich have been the talk
of society for tho last two years. Ic tbat

Reprereiitati*e Iroin Ponn«> Ivauia will be

DAVID B. KILL.
(From Harper's Weekly.)
Every young American taking an inter
est in politics should study the story ot the
rise and faU of David B. Hill. The more
ambitions the young man is, the more at
tentively should he study it. Our politi
cal history has not preached a more in
stinctive sermon for many a day. No pub
lic man in America represents more dis
tinctly than Hill the class of politicians
working only for personal success; no man
of that class was more confident ol having
discovered the true means by which to
achieve that success, and few men seemed
to be more justified in that confidence than
he was for a considerable time. Ho ap
peared to be singularly suited, too, to the
task of gi\ ing his theory of political suc
cess a thorough test. He is, no doubt, a
man of more than ordinary ability, of an
active mind prolific in expedients, of inde
latigable industry, of a courage not casi>y
daunted, and of a perseverance without li m jt
It must be added that his habits are simple
and his wants few. He is unmarried; so
cial intercourse has no charm for him; he
does not enjoy tbe convivial cup or the
soothing cigar; he looks with indifference
at a horse or a dog; he knows nothing of
ihe delights of hunting, or of fishing, or of
yachting; neither literature nor art inter
ests him; nor does he ever indulge in the
luxury of conscientious scruples. With
his whole mind and heart, soul and body,
be is given to politics. He thinks and
dreams of nutbing else, and all his ambi
tion is centered there. He was hardly
started in public life, when that ambition
reached lor the Presidency of the United
States. He thought he knew the straight
road to the White House. And it would
seem that a man so able, so energetic, so
fixed and concentrated in his purpose, so
little distracted by tbe pleasures ot life and
tbe allnrementa 01 the world,Jmnst have had
an nnnsual chance to succeed if in any de
gree favored by fortune. And fortune did
favor him in an extraordinary manner.
He had hardly attracted general notice
as a politician of local influence, when in
1882 be obtained tbe Democratic nomina
tion for the Lieutenant-Governorship, and
was swept into thatpl»ce by the tidal wave
which made Mr. Cleveland Governor.
W hatover power he possessed he nsed at
once in attaching to himself a personal fol
lowing among the Democrats throughout
the State, and Lis opportunities were great
ly increased when Mr. Cleveland became
President and left him Tn the Governor's
chair. By adroit management he succeed
ed in securing tbe nomination for the Gov
ernorship in 1885, and fortune favored him
again. He escaped defeat in tbe election
by tbe treacherous conduct of the Blaine
Republicans, who purposely sacrificed the
candidate of their own party. Now his
work became more systematic. The most
annoying stumbling-block in the way of
bis Presidential aspirations was another
New Tork man, Mr. Cleveland. He bad
to demonstrate that he, Hill, was tbe
stronger m*n with the Dem'>crats of New
Tork. He sneered at Mr. Cleveland's re
form policv, contrasting with it his own
more orthodox Democracy, and he rallied
arouud himself those dissatisfied with Mr
Cleveland's "mugwump notious." An al
liance with Tammany Hall was easily con
cluded on the basis of mutual sympathy
and support. In the interior of the State
it was soon understood that Democratic
opponents of Clevuland could count upon
Hill's favor, and that every Democrat op
posing Hill did so at the peril of his politi
cal life. The local committees of the par
ty were rapidly tilled with Hill's creatures;
a.id as the mercenary characters in politics
usually make the handiest tools to a lead
er speculating upon their greed, persons of
that de*cription were more and more push
ed into places of infiuencp.
ID 1888 Bill bad grown so strong in tbe
Democratic organization that his renoroina
tion tor the Governorship was a matter ot
course, and then he achieved one of his
most important triumphs. The renoraina
tion ol Cleveland loi the Presidency conld
not be prevented, but Hill managed things
so adroitly that votes for President were
traded off in sufficient number against
votes for Governor to give him a plurality
of many thousands, while Cleveland lost
the State. Hill thns won what he consid
ered the decisive point. He had demon
stratively proved himself a stronger Demo
crat in the pivotal State of .New York than
bis bated nval. The stumbling-block ap
peared to have been removed, and tbe road
to the "White House to be open. In the
mean time Hill assidoasly turned his abili
ties to the task of "catching votes." Ue
allured the working-man by posiag as the
champion ot all sorts of measures ostensi
bly favoring organized labor. He was a
sound-money man with sound-money men.
at tbe same time winking at free silver
coinage. He was, when tariff reform had
become tho accented issue, loudly ior tariff
reform, but always with a reservation in
favor ot protection. And when by a new
favor of fortune the Democratic tidal wave
<■l 1890 had put both branches of the New
York Legislature under bis control, and
enabled bim to dictate his election to tbe
United States Senate, he visited the South
ern States to entrap Southern favor by de
ceitful ambiguities on matters of special
interest to his hearers. He believed that
he, tbe man who in 1888 had carried Sew
York when Cleveland lost it, held the
Democratic nomination lor tho Presidency
actually in his clutch, and that nothing
more was required than to securo the Dem
ocratic delegation from his State to the na
tional convention.
To accomplish this his party machine
was in splendid working order. It was
indeed tbe most perfect machine ever or
ganized. At the nod of its master tbe
famous snap convention was elected in
mid-winter, met, appointed a unauiiuous
delegation of Hill men, and passed resolu
tions urging Hill as the Demooratic candi
date for tbe Presidency. It was done with
wonderful precision and rapidity, almost
before the people of New York became
fully aware of what was going on. and the
machine boss proudly chuckled over the
brilliant triumph of his cunning. So far
his career bad been an uninterrupted series
of successes. But at the very moment
when he thought he need only stretch out
his hand to grasp the long-coveted prize,
the ground gave way under his feet. He
had omitted some essential factors from
his reckoning—the honest men in his par
tv, the moral forces in politics. These, to
his utter amazement, pressed to che front
The anti-snapper movement swept over
the State like a whirlwind. Its represen
tatives appeared before the National Dem
ocratic Convention, and the nnbeard c f
thiDg happened—against the unanimous
protest of the Bill delegation from New
York, another New Yoik man, Bill's bated
rival, was by an overwhelming majority
nominated for the Presidency, and ihen
triumphantly elected.
From this terrible blow Hill, with the
courage of despair, gathered himself up.
He did not abandon hope. First he re
solved that at least the administration of
his bated rived must be made a lailure
From the confusion he might tbeu still
emerge as the winning man. As a Sena
tor be conspired with other enemies of the
administration to reject its nominations
and to defe t its important measures, no
matter how the public interest or the par
ty might suffer. Tbe repeal of the silver
purchase act he couid not prevent, but he
was among the foremost of those who plot
ted to mat and maim, and even to kill, if
they could, the tariff bill. The result is
known. The Democratic party at the en
suing elections had to confront a sullen
public sentiment. Defeat was in the air.
And then came one of the most striking
instances of historic retribution on record.
The very mercenaries who had helped him
so often to bis triumpbs, his great, perfect
machine, now demanded that he lead them
as their candidate in the desperate fight to
save them from disaster. He could not re
fuse. He was forced to becom the ser
vant of his henchmen, and as soon as tbe
moral forces in politics bad a chance to
deal with bim personally and directly, be
was buried under a vote of condemnation
uufcfewbw ttfes Vfcitttti upofc tfo otter
Democratic leader within the memory of
living men.
It is idle to say that he was. like many
others, merely a victim of an adverse tidal
wave, for he is recognized as one of the
causes of that tidal wave Indeed, in this
State he was, together with Tammany,
marked as the very head and front of the
offending. Not only the vastly reduced
Democratic vote in his favor, but the vast
ly increased vote tor his opponent, clearly
emphasizes the popular verdict. It is
equally idle to say that a man of such
elasticity may recover from this blow.
Cleveland could recover from his defeat in
1888, for he honestly represented principles
and measures of policy endowed with vital
force. Hill represen's only himself, nis
ambition, and bis machine; and a mere
machine leader, who has led his machine
into the most disastrous defeat the party
ever suffered, is politically dead. Mr. Hill
may not yet be quite consciou* of his de
mise. and still carry on a semblance of
animation, but his future has utterly van
ished, and bis political activi y will be a
mere ghost-dance. In lonesome moments
of reflection it may dawn npon hiin that
bad be devoted his ability to the public
interest instead ot his own; ami had he ad
dressed himself to the moral and patriotic
impulses of the people instead of treating
politics as a mere came ot mercenary mo
tives and artful tricks, he might be within
reach of that goal which now has become
hopelessly inaccessible to him. As it is,
the only servive he has rendered to tbe re
public consists in presenting to ambitious
young Americians in politics the instruc
tive spectacle of the ablest machine leader
of our time, the most thorough master of
all the tricks of the trade, alter a singular
ly prosperous career, utterly discomfited
and ruined, bis power all broken and his
hopes all wrecked, as soon as bis concep
tion ol politics and bis unscrupulous smart
ness fairly encountered the moral judg
ment ol the people. As a lesson to those
who study the problem ot success in poli
tics such a spectacle is of incalculable val
ue.
