and afterwards noticed though he wore clothes his face had been shaved She was much alarmed and started to walk away and was followed by two men one of whom seized her She struggled to escape but seeing their daggers leu a swoon in the afternoon senses until 4 :45 prostrated to dav was elicited from her only at intervals The saving of her life is attributed to her St Bernard dog which is

League The last thing she remembeis of is one of the men push ing a of mud in her mouth botli and two right With such a tremendous advantage in favor of New England a superficial glance at the subject would naturally lead to the conclusion that the Yankees have nothing to fear from the South but when all the facts are grouped and the subject is fairly an alyzed a very different conclusion is forced upon the minds of those who are at all com petent to grapple with it As the case now stands ew England has the mills the cap ital and the skill all easily transferred to the South that is to say the capital skill and the machinery are easily transferred But it would in no wise affect results if New England vantages grasp can be 161 517375897 512 018 11898 Total Southern states Virginia North

agitating the minds of New England thinkers particular ly those engaged in cotton manufacturing is that which relates to the steadily increas ing probabilities of a transfer of the great New England industry to the Southern States New England is already alarmed She has noticed the the signs of the times More she sees the handwriting upon the wall and reads her doom The manufacture of cotton goods in the by no means remote future is to be carried on in the South All the laws relating nomics their gland their power To have an intelligent standing of the situation it will be necessary to have reqpurse to the figures According to Census Bulletin No 300 there were the United States in 1880 750 cot ton manufactures meaning hy specific the data respecting establishments which work cotton into a fabric known and sold under that name" The following statistics show the relative positions of the industry in the six New England States and the twelve Southern States: up a large piece of

refused to live with her husband To night Conk ling went again to see her and was met by Haversticb who swore the woman should not leave the house The two men came to blows Haversticb threw a copper

furnished front parlor of the second flat in the an apartment house at No 341 "West Twenty third street two young men met last rdght for the first and last time for soon afterward one of them died from a pistol shot which had been inflicted by the other The murdered man was Wilber Haverstick the paramour of Mrs Emma Uhler and his slayer was George Conkling the young brother or some time past has lived with Mrs Uhler in the flat The woman was Hie wife of Clement Ubler a broker of No 35 Wall street residing at No 78 ifth avenue They were married ten years ago in San rancisco Cal and some time after came to live in this city Uhler opened a brokerage office in Broad street in partnership with Wilber Haverstick ALIENATED ROM THE HUSBAND The men were firm friends and Ubler frequently invited Haverstick to his home In time Haverstick undermined Uhler in his affection and in consequence Mrs Ubler separated from her husband nearly two years since and with her betrayer engaged the suit of rooms where the tragedy occurred a brother's search The whereabouts of the young woman were for a long time unknown to her friends but her brother George Conkling a Government surveyor until recently en gaged in making field notes cf the State of Nevada left his headquarters at Reno early in ebruary and after transacting some business in Washington came to this city on the 28ih ult with the avowed intention of discovering his missing and erring sister He finally learned that she was living in the After watching and waiting around the apartment house for several days the young surveyor at last met his sister Conkling endeavored to effect a reconcilia tion between her and her husband but after of parleying the young woman upset all negotiations by declaring that as she had be en untrue to Uhler she would never live with him again She however consented to abandon her paramour and return with her brother to his home in the West Conkling accepted his agreement and it was arranged that she would leave the last even ing and after parsing the night at the Sturtevant House brother and sister were to start for the West on an early train this morning Jonkling true to his agreement about 9:30 last night called at the flat for the purpose of taking Mrs Uhler away He knocked at the door and was admitted by his sister Haverstick who was not aware of i what was going on was at home The young surveyor boldly told him of the object of his visit and said that he intended taking his sister away Haverstick flew into a rage and in a threatening way said that as his home was his castle he would notallow any person to take anybody or any thing out of his rooms without his con sent Conkling was firm in his demand and replied that notwithstanding all bar riers he would not allow his sister to remain another night in the house with such a scoundrel A STRUGGLE THAT ENDED A TRAGEDY At the beginning of the altercation Mrs Uhler had remained in the parlor but soon after left the apartment She had scarcely done so when Haverstick becoming furious seized a china statuette of rench peasant girl from the mantel and threw it at Conk ling The missile missed the mark and as he was preparing to throw the companion piece at the young sur veyor the latter said that he would defend himself Haverstick then rushed upon him and the pair clinched They struggled to gether for some seconds but suddenly broke and separated Haverstick then made a motion as if to draw a weapon and as he did so the surveyor believing that his life was in danger fired at his assailant His aim was true for the bullet struck Haver stick in the abdomen inflicting a mortal wound The man sunk to the floor and the surveyor throwing the weapon down left the room and soon afterward the house He walked to the corner of Eighth avenue and Twenty third street where be met Po liceman Mantle of the West Twentieth Street Station to whom he surrendered him self He was taken to the Station House and locked up Youtbl'al Murderers ru Marell Two unprovoked assaults both of which it is thought will prove fatal occurred here this afternoon and in each instance the assaulter and vic tim were boys The first case happened on the south side at 2 Two boys one named Wood aged fourteen were playing a game called and dog" when a piece of wood known as the cat was knocked over the fence into the yard where John Backs meyer aged seventeen was at work This so enraged Backsmeyer that he procured a pistol and tired a shot taking effect in temple Backsmeyer was arrested and the injured boy removed to his home where he is now lying in a dying condition At about the same hour several boys were playing ball in AlleghenyCily among them Kuueue the ten year old son of Captain Grace a prominent citizen Two larger and older boys who were unknown came up ami insisted upon joining the game Grace refused to play with them when one picked him then ceral products the scarcely more favorable matter of climate Net it seems to be adopted a close 11 tee other are tiie England offers no inducements at all comparable with the South The soil of New England is comparatively barren the climate is ex ceptionally inhospitable while the South boasts a prolific soil and a climate of al most perpetual summer The cost of living must therefore always be less in the South than in New England Again the South produces the great bulk of the world's sup ply of cotton and the question can this cotton be manufactured near the fields where it is grown? is being answered affirm atively and as a consequence cotton nianu facturing establishments are increasing in the South and must continue to increase until New England and other Northern States will be compelled to abandon the bus iness During the year 1880 the New England States consumed 1129 498 bales or511373880 pounds of cotton against 182 319 bales or 84528757 pounds consumed by the South ern States Hitherto New England has en joyed a monopoly of labor skill and capital But a mighty change has begun To trans port cotton to New England to be manuftc tured and then transport the goods back again to market is not in consonance with economy The remedy is to manufacture the cotton near the place of production and it is to be applied with resistless energy The South in the near future is to be the 1 great cotton manufacturing section of the country and eventually of the world Those who study such subjects are unable to offer any good reason why such a transfer of the cotton manufacturing industry to the Southern States should be postponed or can be indefinitely delayed The South possesses all the natural advan tages She has a monopoly of the raw material and will retain it forever She has a fruitful soil and a salubrious climate Population is rapidly increasing The con sumer is taking his place by the side of producer Capital is concentrating in South Skill will follow capital The is operating and will annually exert creased transferringand transforming power In 1880 New England gave employment to 127185 operatives in her cotton factories and their wages amounted to $32170801 The Southern States employed only 16741 operatives in her cotton mills paying them $2750 986 With such a vast prepon derance of wealth and power in her favor New England has felt secure but now she is waking up to the fact that as certainly as the years roll on she will lose her con trol of the cotton manufacturing industry of the country It is going South as cer tainly as that the rivers flow to the sea New England will be left to nurse her fish eries her ice fields rocks and sterile lands as best she may while the South steadily increasing in wealth and power will be recognized with the West as the seat of em pire This accomplished the narrow views of New England will cease to exert any per ceptable influence in shaping the policy or destiny of the Republic 1 24 815292078: 095924 I 3Gi 198770811 911053 71 916 96'

of New England That section can boast of no single advantage upon which she can rely to maintain in the long run a sup pramacy over the South in the manufacture of cotton goods while the South possesses numerous advantages which with the ad dition of skill and capita will forever es tablish her supremacy over New England New England like old England is unable to feed her population The product of wheat in the six New England States for the census year 1880 amounted to 1127019 bush els and the population being 4010529 the wheat yield amounted to about pounds per capita In regard to figures Nearly Every House aud Settlement Desert ed £ue Government Called Upon for Prompt Action Washington March 20 Town send in a communication from the Sac and ox Indian Agency under date of March 15 writes the Commissioner of Indian A flairs as follows: In coming from Tulsa to this Agencv sixty miles I found nearly every house and settlement deserted and that in a season of the year when every man should be in his field instead of run ning about over the country with a inchester rifle on his shoulder A reign of (error prevails throughout this part of the Creek Reservation ana appears have stampeded almost the entire pupuiuuou ana measures should the war tn ifthiscaube accomplished without the inter position of the General Government and if this must come it would be mercy to many innocent persons involved In this trouble if it were done at once so as to prevent further bloodshed and devastation I nm aware these troubles are a test of the Creeks for telf government butother inter ests are at stake and uther ti i bes may become in volved either as enemies or allies 1 would not embarrass the Creek Nation in its present struggle for independence and existence rather would 1 encourage and support its loyal leaders to the end that their capacity for self government be demon strated but if this can not be done and quickly I think the public welfare demands the Govern ment should interfere withoutdelay Agent Townsend refers to the fact that armed men from both sides are riding hither and thither all over the country and from reliable information he believes them to be without discipline and in a disorganized condition In conclusion he says: At best it is a disastrous state of attars Bad enough if confined to lhe limits of their own reservation but when their position car ries their campaign into a territory not their own I think it is high time someone should interfere and compel them at least to limit their hostile operations to their own coun try and their own people This state of affairs affords excellent opportunity for many desper adoes who infest the country to commit deprtda tions on all sides and there are indications that they are not slow to take advantage of it and charge it all to the Creeks Kansas City March Crabtree a prominent stock dealer of Eufala Creek Nation who left there on Sunday night the reports that General Porter was pre paring to leave Eufala this morning at the head of 500 men to attack Spirche at his camp thirty five miles west of Okumlgee on the edge of the Sac and ox Agency force is said to be about 250 men A determined fight is anticipated as both parties have been recuperating preparatory to the encounter Sprague Nominated Providence March 20 The Democratic State Convention ibis morning nominated ni Prague for Governor bv a rising vote seven voting against A Committee was an a pointed to confer with the Independent or tfprague convention neia last week relative to the filling of the remainder of

severed There were dagger des two inches apart in the breast of her dress A broad steel corset rib had been broken by the weapon which had penetrated to the inner lining of her dn ss at the first stroke and to her corset at the second stroke Lady lorence supposes she urcnnscioualy struggled with the men assisted by her dog until the scoundrels were disturbed by a cart passing in the woods She received threatening letters while in Ireland recently One of the men wore a green dress and a large hat with a veil The veiled man attempted the assas sination No arrests have been made The police have a slight clue to the scoundrels It is believed tho men were bitten in the struggle London March 19 Lady lorence Dixie who was attacked Halurday by two men dis guised in women's clothes says the men spoke no brogue Sbe remembers seeing her St Bernard dog drag one of them back ward The Irish members of Parliament dis credit the story of Lady lorence Dixie that she was attacked by masked men The aOair is puzzling every one No clue to the a'sailauts The gardener pitting geraniums thirty yards from the scene neither saw nor heard anything of the oc currence Lady lorence says she called to her husband for help She states she should be sorry to attribute the outrage to the Land League The Queen has requested that a painting of the be done fur her Detectives have taken the corset worn by Lady Dixie who has sullered no injury beyond a slight scratch which after glancing on the corset just penetrated her chemise She also had a frw cuts on the palms of both hands As to the motive of the crime she said whole affair is most I can as crbe a motive to no one as my sympathy for the Irish people has been openly avowed and well It was assumed it would be laid at the door of the Irish an assump tion she warmly repudiated adding: these days every crime must be of Irish Was the Story of the Attack Upon Iler a are abrication Special Cable Dispatch to the World I London March 20 Those likely to be best informed to day regard the state ment of Lady lorence Dixie as to the attack made upon her near Windsor as a pure fabrication Not a trace of any struggle can be found on the damp

who were all within a few yards of the scene of the alleged struggle at the time alleged have all been examined and neither saw nor heard any thing of it Lady lorence herself ib now bewildered about

following language: tating eonvic ion is that wine in the Bible and out of it means the fermented juice of the grape: and that when approved or disapproved this is not due to the different character of the wine itself but to Its rational or immoderate We are moved to give publicity to these testi monies because we feel that the evil of drunken ness is quite uo extensive and serious and the need of reform in regard to this one of our Na sins is quite too Imperative for the interests of the temperance cause to be imperiled as they so often are by insisting on theories which assur edly can not ultimately stand before candid sehol arahiD and thorough and impartial investigation and which have been in fact rejected and repudi ated by the great body of Christian scholars from the days of Christ to the present time Audit seems tows as to many that when men would even intiude with this modern theory into the holiest sanctuary of the Christian faith and in the supposed interests of ven

Victoria Saturday by slipping upon the stairs of the Palace at Windsor while de scending to take her carriage for a ride now turn out to be more serious than at first sup posed and is believed that she will be con fined to her room for some time At the time of the accident Her Majesty and at tendants thought but little of it The Qaeen after returning to her room and mak ing an examination in order to learn the extent of her injuries determined to carry out her intention and take a drive On re turning and when attempting to leave the carriage she found she wras unable to do so and had to be helped by her attendants who found it necessary to carry her to her room Her physicians were at once sum moned and upon examination found her knee to be badly swollen and inflamed It is now believed by those having access to authentic information that the injuries are not absolutely dangerous in themselves but there is universal fear that owing to the advanced age of the Queen and the somewhat delicate condition in which her health has for some time been that some dangerous complications may arise from them 4 It is announced that the physicians have authorized the statement to be made that Her Majesty is in no immedi ate danger The statement is coupled with the information that Her Majesty may how ever be confined for an indefinite time to come It is understood that Hie Queen is suffering quite as much from exhaustion produced by her determined action in taking a long ride after she received injury for the purpose of disa busing the public mind of al! impression that she was hmt as from the consequences of the wound itself This for titude is the theme of universal comment and the working people seem to glory in talking about what they call the of the 4:40 Bulletins report that the Queen is resting comfortably and the physi cians claim to have entirely succeeded in conquering all those elements of the case which might prove troublesome The Qaeen is still confined to Windsor Castle by the swelling of the knee caused by the fall Saturday The journey to Os borne has been postponed General health good London March 22 Queen limb which was injured by her fall
