As it is announced that a democratic caucus is going to discuss the admission of Dakota in a day or two, the following telegrams will be read with interest by our readers. Jamestown. D. T., Dec. 5.—[Special.] A constitutional convention which is composed of delegates from every coun ty in the territory, convened to-day The object of the meeting is to promote the early admission of Dakota into the Union. Jamestown, Dak., Dec. 5.—The citi* sens of Jamestown are taking an active interest m the mass convention of North Dakota, which has just convened, for the purpose of devising some means looking to the speedy admission of North Dakota. Reduced hotel and railroad rates have been secured, and the indica tions point to a full representation from nearly all of the counties. The conven tion will be non-partisan in character— democrats and republicans alike being interested in statehood. The basis of representation is left to the judgment of the different counties. The convention is called for consideration and di-cussion, und what action it will take can only be a matter of conjecture at this time. The principal question which it will discuss will be the expediency and 'desirability of calling a constitutional convention, and the project lately agitated of formu lating a call for an interterritorial con vention of the two Dakotas, Washington and Montana, to make a joint demand upon cungiess for admission.

Youngstown, O., Dec. 5.—[Special.]— In a collision of freight trains on the Lake Shore road this morning, Charles Kennedy, a brakeman, was killed, and four others badiv injured. Rosenberg said “We have an attendance every Satur day morning and afternoon of upward of two hundred children, mostly Ger mans, though there are many Bohemian and Russian Poles. All instruction is gived in the German language by myself, William Gundelach and two o.her teach ers. Children are taught the ordinary courses of study and singing.” "But are -they not instructed in the principles of socialism:” asked the re porter. “Well, we call it 'natural science,’ and then we have exercises in 'logical think ing.’ 1 teach the young ones the art of logical thinking. One must be a logical thinker to become a true and mentally well equipped socialist.” "Does this study embrace any com ment on religious beliefs ?” ' "Oh, we don t say anything about God and tho scriptures, otae way or another,” he replied. "That is. we make no direct statement in the affirmative or in the negative in reference to Christian doc trines. but we teachers, as well as all members cf our school as ociution. are, of course,’ thoroughbred free thinkers aud socialists, and when the young mind is imbued with the right fundamental ideas from the start, there is little dan ger that it will stray into the church crowd later on.” From other sources it was learned that in this and other socialist schools pupils are taught to regard the rich a? their natural enemies, who must, as soon an possible, be overthrown. Teachers take pains to impress upon their pupils that because of these rich men and corpora tions the poor are growing poorer with the result of soon creating a raoe of ab jeot slaves. Next the little ones are told that there is no such thing as a future life. When man dies he is dead, and that is the last of him.' His memory may live, but his soul dees not. In fact, all religion is sneered at. Ridicule is heaped upon preachers and priests, who are denounced as charla tan? and tricksters, whose only vim is to get money out of tlieir followers. The equality of mankind is taught, and the axiom hammered into the heads of the children that no man should have an exclusive right to property er the instru ments of production. All property should be in common, as no man could produce anything or accumulate any thing unaided. Their object in life, it argued, is to prepare for a social revolu lion, in which they are to be active par ticipants. Besides the school on Fourth street, the socialist party controls a similar in stitution at East Seventy-eighth street and 8econd avenue, with Herr Bach as principal, lhe average attendance there being more than 200 children. Another is to le founded on the West side, near West Fifty-fourth street and Tenth ave nue. while in Brooklyn the socialist sec tion has no le s than three schools, and last week an evening school for the prop agation of socialist ideas among the young was opened at Zub?tti's hall on Central avenue, Jersey City Heights.

Springfield, 111., Dec. 6.—[Special.]— The case of Cobb, Christy & Co., against the Illinois Central railroad for a million dollars damages is being argued in the appellate court here to-day.

Shook, general manager of the Tennes- 603 Coal, Iron and Railroad company, j It says: i The republican organ and mouthpiece of the Vanderbilt interests since the elec tion of Mr. Harrison has thrown aside all disguise in its editorial columns and daily pours the vials of its impotent wrath upon the “solid south.” The . "news” columns of the paper are now wedded to the same course of malice and 'misrepresentation, as its utterances upon the u atonal advancement of this section illustrated. The Mail and Express, wi-b a fine flourish, proclaimed that the pro gress of ths south is largely due tc “Northern capital and northern enter prise.” “Thero are two furnaces in the south,” said Mr. Shook, "operated by northern Imen. One is the Pioneer furnace, at Bir mingham, whi.-h is ow ned by the Thom ases. of Pennsylvania, and of which (Samuel Thomas is president. The other is the Eureka furnace, at Oxmoor, Ala., six miles south of Birmingham. Th a 'furnace is owned by the Louisville and Nashvillo railroad company and Cincin- mati capitalists exclusively,and managed by Thomas A. Mack, formerly of Cincin nati. "The other furnaces in the Birming ham district are owned and managed by the following parlies: Slots Iron and Steel company, now operating four fur naces, largely owned by Richmond and Birmingham capitalists, and managed by Thomas Siddon, formerly of Richmond, Va., and, by the way, a son of tho old Conlederate cabinet officer of the same ‘name.

Both the names "Tennessee” and “Hillman ’ are purely southern, and so inseparably connected with tho manu facture of iron in the south that it isu e- less to debate whether tills is a southern concern. “Other furnaces in the Birmingham di trict are the Mary Pratt Furnace com pany, owned and managed largely by tht Underwoods at Birmingham; the Williamson Furnace company, owned and managed by Mr. Williamson, of Birmingham, who, be it said to his cred it, started a small machine shop in Bir mingham about twelve years ago, and by close attention and hard work built it up to a large business, and in that .shop built every part of this furnace himself, and then put it up himself, and is now running it himself. "The Oebardeleben Coal and Iron com pany at Bessemer, the president of which is Henry F. Debardeiei.en, who is per haps the wealthiest and most enterpris ing man in the Birmingham iron dis trict. is a southern man. He has always been identified with Alabama indusir es, and married a Miss Pratt, of Alabama, after whom the celebrated Pratt Mines ave named, and for whom the Mary Piatt Furnace was named. He has as sociated with him ~a number of South Carolina capitalists. It is hardlv neces- |8ary to say that they, are southerners. They own and operate two furnaces at Bessemer, and are building three more. “There is a furnace being built at Trus- ville. about fourteen miles north of Bir mingham. in which there is some north ern capital invested; 1 don't know how much.

Accused of Bavins Developed a Fondn for Strong Language. Washington, Dec. 6.—One of the most vexatious duties the president ha, to perform is to make certain army ap pointments which may be made from the civil ranks of life. Often great pres sure is brought to bear, particularly oi a social nature, to induce him to take up some family pet and put him over the heads of army officers who have fairly earned promotion. The president ha* always been opposed to this sort of thing, and has not had too much patience with those who have sought to change his will. One day la t week, a woman, a society woman, called on him to urge a civil appointment of this kind. The president politely but firmly said no. Then the woman enlisted the services of a bureau chief, who is on good terms with the president. The chief called. "The woman, yofi know,” he said to Mr. Cleveland, "will not take no for an an- swer.” "l am glad you have come,” ths president ret or tel, “for I can say to you what I wanted to say to Mrs. —.
