THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT
SHOWS SOME FIRMNESS.
A "Washington special says it is
believed that the British govern
ment has made strong oxertions to
induce the United States to co
operate in the proposed system of
surveilance, whereby Americans
suspected of conspirating against
what is termed the peace of
Great Britain may be detected
and prevented from carrying out
their purpose. The British minis
ter has represented to this govern
ment that the troublesome class
of persons with which her ma
jesty's government has to contend
are Americans of Irish descont,
who connubiate in every possible
manner for Irish independence.
Her majesty's representative was
fully informed some time prior to
the departure of the president of
the policy of this government with
respect to the surrender of per
sons on American soil accused by
England of the committal of
political offenses. All prisoners
who under the extradition laws
can be shown to have committed
crimes in England will,,sifter com
pliance with just forms, be surren
dered to that government in ac
cordance with the treaty.
In even case Great Britain
must submit satisfactory evidence
of the guilt of the person accused
before any surrender will be made.
Suspicion or presumption of guilt
will not do. Identification must
be positive. The cabinet has ful
ly considered this question. That
England has for years past been an
asylum for the vilest class of po
litical offenders is known to histo
ry and is remembered by the ad
ministration, and it does not pro
pose to deny to persons living
within the borders of the United
States a just and equal protection
of laws. In the case of Sheridan
the British government evidently
hoped to secure his possession
without full compliance with the
extradition laws, and the fact that
he has not been arrested is regard
ed as evidence that the plans of
the British authorities are baffled.
The rights of American citizens in
Ireland will be protected under
the laws to the best of this govern
ment's ability. All negotiations
between the two powers have been
carried on in a friendly spirit, but
-the administration has firmly in
sisted upon a strict compliance by
Great Britain, in every particular,
with the letter of the existing
law.
had secured the rejection of the
original claim were in the new
one made as strong as proofs of
holy writ by affidavits of extra
power, and nothing but the
memory .and experience of the old
clerk saved the government from
the payment of the fraud.
Brady Found Guilty.
Dublin, April 13. The trial of
Joe Brady was continued this
morning. Defense called a clerk
named Kennedy, who swore that
he spoke to Bradv, who was ac
companied by another man on
Dominick street, between 5 and G
o'clock, on the evening of ifay C.
He recognized Annie Meagher,
who testified yesterday. She was
with Bradv that evening. Wit
ness said he also met Brady the
following day, and the latter de
clared that murders would ruin
the cause of Ireland. Upon the
conclusion of Kennedy's testimony,
the defense announced that it
would call no other witnesses.
Argument of counsel for defense
and prosecution then followed.
The judge completed his charge at
13 minutes after three, when the
jury retired. They were absent
but a short time and returned to
the court room and announced
that they had found Brady guilty
of the murder of Cavendish and
Burke. Brady was immediately
sentenced to be hanged. Dr.
Webb moved for a rest of judg
ment, and alleged that under the
crimes act the jury which heard
the case was not legally formed.
The judge refused to grant a stay
of proceedings, and fixed the date
for tho execution of Brady, at
Mav 4.
The N. Y. Telegram announces
the collapse of tho Boston scheme
ofmastless steamers with domo
decks, to cross the ocean in five
davs. A trial trip of the Meteor,'
built to test the new principle,
will probably not be made. Its
boiler was able to generate more
than 150 pounds to the square
inch, but the engine could not be
induced to mako a revolution. In
an attempt to do so it smashed
itself. The mams of the Meteor
have been towed. to the works of a
ship buildor in this city, where
they will be equipped with ordi
nary marine engines.
The story of a recent attempt to
get an old claim passed in the
treasury department, which has
just leaked out, illustrates the
manner in which many fraudulent
claims are often sneaked through
by audacious and persistent claim
asrents. The claim, which was for
damage to the claimant's property
in Florida during the Seminole
war, was presented to the secre
tary by a distinguished lawyer and
politician as a meritorious one.
The claimant, it was said, was
poor and was worn out with wait
ing, and justice demanded that it
should be immediately taken up
and passed. The array of affida
vits was immense, and a prima
facie case seemed to be made out.
The chief clerk, a man as new to the
department as the secretary, was
called, the papers were handed
over, and, as the case had years
ago been before the department,
the order was to look up all the
papers pertaining to it, and make
up a report. The search was
begun, and three or four men
were at work for several days in
looking over files, with poor suc
cess until an old clerk heard what
was wanted. He had considered
the case twenty jrears before,
knew all the ins and outs of it,
proved it to be a fraud in the
"beginning, when it was for $3,000,
and now a greater fraud when it
was for $30,000. Originally
among the things alleged to have
been taken or destroyed were four
wall tents, valued at $50 each.
In the revised and improved
claim these tents had grown to be
four frame houses valued at $1,500
.apiece. The weak points which
The French laborer probably
gets more for his wages than any
other. His food is cheaper and
more nourishing. His bouillon is
liquid essence of beef at a penny
per bowl. His bread at the res
taurant is thrown in without any
charge, and is the best bread in
fliA -cvnrltL His hot coffee and
milk is peddled about the streets
in the morning at less than a ou
per cup. It is coffee, not slops.
His half bottle of claret is thrown
in at a meal costing twelve cents.
For a few cents he may enjoy an
evenings amusement at any ouc of
the minor theaters, with his coffee
free. Six pence pays for a nicely
cushioned seat at the theater. Art
and science hold out to him their
choicest treasures at small cost or
no cost at all. French economy
and frugality do not mean that
nnnKtant retrenchment and self-
denial which would deprive life of
everything which makes it worth
living for. Economy in France,
more than in any other country,
means a utilization of what Amer
ica throws away, but it does not
mean a pinching process of reduc
ing life to a barren existence of
work and bread and water.
A New England boy of 12 stole
$5 worth of articles from a dwell
ing house, and was sent for nine
years to the reform school which
is notorious for tho cruelty of its
discipline. The Boston Herald
says if he ltad been 21 years of
a"-e he would have got a three
month's sentence. A Maine man
deliberately killed his neighbor
not long since and was sentenced
to eight years, or one year less
than this boy had to suffer. "In
the sweet by and by," "suggests
the Herald, "this will not be called
justice." It is not now, whatever
it may be called.
Mrs. Davis is very communica
tive. A lady who conversed with
her explains the postponement of
her marriage as follews: "Mr
Arthur is a widower. Judge
Davis was viee president. If
while in office he had married his
wife, his wife would have been
the first lady in the land. This
position Miss Burr objected to oc
cupying, and thus the nuptials did
not tako place until Mr. Davis was
out of office."

The greatest proof of the genu
ine merit of an article can be found
in the amount of patronage it re
ceives, and the thousands of testi
monials respecting the Great Ger
man Remedy, prove most conclu
sively that it is all that it is repre
sented to be. Mr. T. J. Murphy,
who resides at No. Gl Dahavoice
street, Brooklyn, N. Y., is one of
the fortunate ones. I rubbed St.
Jacobs Oil all over my left leg for
several days, and it cured as pret
ty a case of rheumatism as ever
was fastened on a man. I never
had the disease before this winter.
But as almost everybody else was
suffering with it, I guess I had to be
in the fashion. So one day I felt
n. nnstvr sort of nain creeping down
my left limb, but didn't think
much of it until night, when it be
gan to make me groan. I had
seen the advertisement of St.
Jacobs Oil. and bad heard some
thing about it from friends. I
therefore got a Dottle oi it ana
went for ray left leg. I did not
stint mvself in the use of the Oil,
but "rubbed half a bottle on the
first time. The first application
gave me great relief, and I let up
on it until the next day, when I
used the remainder of the bottle.
That settled it I have not felt
any rheumatic pain since. So
much for the trial.
