It considers the matter grave'y from a judicial standpoint, saying that while it is highly probable there was a kind of rude justice n.eted out to the victims it w as, under a government of law and order, nothing ;Lt murder. The event cannot be viewed without ave apprehension that such evHrnpieg are o minions and no otie can tell where t:.e licit mob w 11 undertake lo correct ti.e fa. lures that are supposed to occur ;n the administration of the law, nor of ho many suck, assaults our government will endure. Attention is then given to the iu.mi gration question and thedocunier.t says. e have alwavs boasted that thin laud ;8 the asylum for the oppressed of all nations." For many years we have been an asylum of criminals and paujwrs of all nations. We have taken in su'ih a flood of ignorance, pa'Jeris.u and crime and clothed it with the full panoply of citizenship that Americanism, is being diluted and assailed in a way truly elements of our alarming to the country; steps must be taken in dealing with this flood 1U time before it is too late and nothing can be done to have our country and institutions safe from ti e teril that menaces them. If tho present laws are not sufficient, others should be framed. To postpone or flinch from meeting this issue is perilous and cowardly. The doctrine for is not applicable to any one nationality but to all. liesoluttons were adopted calling upon the governmenmsnt of several states tu use ail lawful means to prevent the importation of criminals and paupers; demanding that the courts be rigid in administering the laws as to naturalization; and calling upon the press and the public to agitate end discuss the subject of importation of crim.nals and paupers. d New Appliances .

The ordnance Washington, April oiicers at the war department have been earnestly at work for several weeks jiaet preparing to give an estimate of the 9. sjmeoi the more important provisions of the fortification appropriation not which will go into operation after June d'th. To avoid a loss or time, most of the advertisements for the proposals effe.--t of to supply the material have been prepared and will be issuod in advance of the beginning of the new fiscal year. Those ready for issue are as follows: For 6ets of forgings for steel field guns of :i'J inch calibre; lo set" for steel field mortars of lit! inch calibre, and 10 steel carriages for same; steel forgings for large 8, 10 and 12 inch rifled coast defense guns; 8, 10 and 12 inch armor piercing project ives. For the large reabove defense guns coast ferred to congress appropriated the procurement of necessiOO,O00 ary forgrogs and the material will be assembled at the Waterville factory and furnished ns the guns are turned out. The 30 inch mortars mark a new departure in military Held operations. They are intended to replace the small cohorns which are used in trenches for shelling an enemy behind earthworks or in like defenses, which are out of the direct fire of the field guns. Their range is nearly three times as great as the cohorn smooth bore mortars, the projectile is more than twice as heavy and great accurracy of tire is obtainable. The weight of the piece is about 525 pounds so it can be easily transported in a wagon or moved alxmt by men in trenches. The armor piercing projectiles are to be manufactured by a domestic concern, but upon specifications that will secure the use of some one of the modern European patented processes. For their procurement an app ropriation of 1100,000 will be available. r The Presidential Party. Washington, April 9. The itinerary of the president's tour was finally prepared today.

A year ago she d planned the same crime but it was and the unfortuuate woman sent to an insane asylum. A short time ago she she was released, as cured. This morning before her children, a boy and girl, aged 7 and 9 respectlv, were dressed she took them to the kitchen and with an ax crushed their skulls. She then replaced the bodies in bed, nailed the doors shut and after taking a dose of concentrated lye called out of the window for the neighbors to come and see her children. When the door was forced, the sight was sickening. On the bed lay the mangled forms of the two little onep, while in the kitchen the insane mother lay writhing on the floor. She died in great agony in a short time. frus-trade- The New York 'Cliang-eNew York, April 9. The stock market is again booming today and the volume of business is larger than on any previous day this year, being well distributed among leading stocks, while the number of inactive stocks dealt in was something unprecedented.

Farmer State Alliance. TA'.utijj-wKF- , Fla., April 9. The if .fs day is the publication of a letter from President lingers, of the State Alliance, in which he says he cannot support Dunn for United States senator, "because he is a national banker nor Call neither," 'because the latter is not in sympathy w ith the demnnds of the National Alliance." The letter appeals to the Alliance legislators, who number thirty five - a clear majority, to unite iiMin the straight out Alliance candidate. Over half of the Alliance legislators are supporters of Call, however. Call does not favor the bill, but is in smpar.hy with the Alliance on other demands. Another sensation was sprung this ofternoon by the distribution to the memliers of a circular issued by Senator Call, denouncing as an "absolute and malicious falsehood" the statements made by Editor Dunning, of the Farmers' Alliance that he (Call) was hostile to free Bilver coinage, and to all the principles ef the Farmers' Alliance.
