There were present with him Dr: Chas. E. Simmonds and Samuel Swift and his niece, Miss Gould. His death was entirely unexpected and was caused by failure of the ook ; — Samuel J.

While sitting on the stoop of his residence after sun- down on that evening he was taken with a slight chill which settled on his stomach and bowels, producing inflammation from which he suffered all night. On Sunday he was slightly better and was able to ride out. On Sunday evening he felt much worse and continued to grow weak- er. But until last night there was no fear of the consequence, This morning it became apparent that the end was near. Dr. Sim- monds and Miss Gould, a relative, were at the bedside, a few moments before Mr. Tilden died. He tried to speak, but only moved his lips, failing to make any sound. ae * 1 ＋ 95 ‘ 4 — 1 28 He passed away quietly and peacefully. His death occurred in the south chamber of the mansion, overlooking the Hudson. No arrangements have yet been made for the funeral. Mr. Geo. W. Smith, Mr. Tilden’s private secretary says he has not received any instructions from the relatives. Mr. Tilden was born on February 9, 1814, in New Lebanon, Columbia County, and was therefore 72 years old. He leaves one sister, the mother of the late Col. Pelton, and several nephews, children of his brothers,Moses and Henry Tildén. MR. TILDEN’S LAST HOURS. The Statesman of this afternoon contains the following statement of Mr.Tilden’s last hours: Dr. Simmonds, his attending physician, who lives next to Graystone, says that been in unust- last had health Mr. Tilden ally during the tour months.

He was put to bed and con- stantly watched and nourished through the nicht, but his strength gradually failed. At about 8 o’clock this morning, Dr. Samuel Swift was summoned for consultation.

She stated she had heard of the rumor, but as yet had received no in- formation of the ex-Governor’s death. She was inclined to discredit the report, and said if it were true she would have been noti- fied almost immediately. Telegrams addressed to Mr. Tilden were received at the house this morning. There were one or two callers to whom Mrs. Fay made the same statement. She said it was only yesterday that one of Mr. Tilden’s relatives had saidthat he was doing remarkably well. None ofthe family were in the city to-day. — A GREAT SURPRISE. How the News of Tilden’s Death Was Re- ceived in New York. New YorK, August 4.—The unexpected death of Mr. Tilden was a great surprise to The Viking. the community and politicians generally. Sheriff Grant said: ‘‘Mr. Tilden was one ot the greatest men that ever lived inthe country. In his death, Tammany Hall, which bas been very much attached to bim, will suffer great loss. Deputy Sheriff Joel O. Stevens characterized Mr. Tilden as a man of great ability and statesmanship who always had the interests of the country atheart. He showed his devotion by his submission to the iniquitous proceeding at the time of the election of 1876. His course upon that occasion kept the country from a state of anarchy. Assemblyman Phil Kenan regarded Mr. Tilden asa man of rare ability and a great statesman, whose death wouid be a loss to the country. Deputy County Clerk Gilroy said: It is & great pity that the fraud of 1876 has not been avenged before Mr. Tuden's death. That stain remains upon the history of this country and always will. Tilden was one of the greatest | Tilden’s district I had occasion to meet him statesmen the country produced, and even in _. ry often and I must say as a statesman he attacked by diarrhea and nausea on his dying years he showed his ability by bie „as never surpassed.

He continued in his usual health until Tuesday afternoon, when the nausea and diarrh@a returned. Judge Donohue of the Supreme Court said: „He was a very able man and fairly elected President of the United States, as I suppose is now generally admitted. I knew that he had | nad been a very sick man for some time past, and his death was not entirely unexpected to me.’’ Judge Beach of the Court ot Common Pleas said: His death is a great loss both person- ally and politically.’’ Lawyer David McClure said: ‘‘He was a man of great ability. He was cheated out of the Presidency.’’ The news of Mr. Tilden’s death spread through the city very rapidly. The newspaper offices bulletined it early and so the news soon scattered LER e * 7 —— —— — eT Green-houses at Graystone. broadcast. Expressions of sorrow were heard | on all sides and from parties of all political faith at the loss the country had sustained. , Though it was known that Mr. Tilden had been | being looked for, and coming so suddenly, was quite a shock to the community. j THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY'S LORS. When the news was received at police head- quarters, some of the officials regarded it as a hoax, and refused to believe it. The wires, however, soon settled the question, and then began a season of speculation and retrospec- tion. The alleged fraud of 1876 was recalied and many were the expressions of sympathy for the dead man which were evoked by the dis- cussion of the sad event. His nobie fight for Hancock in the campaign of 188) was remem- bered, and many expressed the opinion that it was the defeat of the Democracy in that year that led Mr. Tilden to de- clare that he was no longer 4 candidate for the suffrages of his countrymen. Anecdotes of his early political life as far back as 1546, when he was a member of the Con- stitutional Convention and a member of the Assembly, mingled with memories of his great aversion to offieial lite and his adherence to the principles of his party, were heard on every hand. The Graystone office. one great feature of the talk incidental to Mr. Tilden’s death was the loss it would be to the Democratic party that hus of late been robbed by death of such leaders as Seymour, Hen- dricks, John Kelly and others. „„The loss will fall very beavy upon the Democracy, said Gen. Fitz John Porter.“ Mr. Tilden was regarded asa Mentor by many of the leaders of the party and they will now be ataloss where to go for advice. they can ever replace him. I am not sur- prised to hear of his death, however, for the last time I saw him 1 thoughtap looked very poorly.’’ - **Itseemsto me, said Senator Murphy, that the Democratic party is rapidly going to pieces. All ot its shining lights are being taken away by the hand ofdeath. Mr. Tilden was aman whom the Democratic party can never replace. The Democracy is having hard luck and no mistake,’’ said Senator Plunkett. ‘‘Now that the leader is dead, things begin to look very for many a day after he is laid to rest, and View from the piazza. there will never be found a man to take up the ' cause where be laid it down.

The Life and Work of the Dead Stat es- man. Samuel J. Tilden, who, next to Horatio Sey- mour, has exerted the greatest influence on the destiny of the Democratic party in the past quarter of a century, and who was the leading figure in making successful in 1384 the revulsion of feeling that came in 1816, was born at New Lebanon, in the County of Columbia, N. V., inthe year 1814. He had a thorough infusion of English blood, one of his ancestors, Nathaniel Tilden, having been in 1623 Mayor ot Tenterden, County Kent, England, subsequently moving to Massa- chusetts in 1634. The grandfather of Samuel J. Tilden settled in Columbia County, and his son, Elam, who became the father of the Democratic states- man, was a farmer and merchant of the town of New Lebanon, a man of excellent judgwent and good sense, and 80 well informed in political matters as to be looked upon as the oracle of the county and to be regarded by President Van Buren as a warm personal friend. It was from this side ofthe house that Gov. Tilden inherited bis taste for political pursuits and his wide acquaintance with affairs had its root in his earlv associations with his father. In his 18th year Samuel entered Yale Col- lege, but he had not been there long when his health gave way and he was compelled to View from the office. leave. Later on in 18%, at the age of 20, he entered the University of New York where he finished his acadeinic education. Then he entered the iaw-office of John W. Edmunds in New York, where be enjoyed unusually vaiua- ble facilities for atudying law and politics. HI8 FIRST PUBLIC STEP. Soon after the accession of Van Buren to the Presidency came the great panic of in, anda bitter debate swept the country. Tie l’resi- dent's recommendation for the separation of the Government from the banks and the es- tablishment of an independent treasury cailed down upon the Executive's head the flercest denunciation. The young lawyer had imbibed from his father a great admiration for Van Buren, and this inspired him to publish a se- ries of papers signed ‘*Crino’’ in defense of the President. These productions were marked by great maturity of thought. On being admitted to tne bar, in i841, Mr. Tilden opened a law office on Pine atrect, New York. In 1844 he founded the Daily News to take part in the election of James K. Polk. In the fall of ie45 he was sent to the Assembly from the metropolis, and while a member was selected to the convention for the remodelling of the Constitation of theState. In both these bodies Mr. Tiiden was no insign cant factor. Political dissensions among the friends of Tolk and Van Buren and his own defeat for Attorney General of New York estranged Mr. Tilden from politics and for over a decade he devoted himself strictly to his profession. His prac- tice was very extensive and by it he amassed considerable wealth. He was counsel in 1556 in the Fi case growing out of the con- tested election for the Comptrollersbip of New York City, and in 1857 was attorney for the rel- atives of Dr. Burdell in the celebrated suit with Mrs. Cunningham, and for the Pennsy/vania Coal — — in its suit with the Delaware & Hudson Canal Company. HIs WAR RECORD. Up to the breaking out of the rebellion he made every effort to avert bloodshed, but when his endeavors proved vain he sided unflinch- ingty with the Union. In the winter of 1860-6] he attended a meeting of the leading men of bot in the city of New York to consider the question of the hour. Mr. Tilden counseled moderation for for both sides. During the war he occupied a position that lacked so much of encourage- ment in its attitude toward the Federal Government that bis loyalty was impugned afterward by his political opp. nents, who made much not only out of his act ons in hisown State, but aiso his — inence in the Peace Convention at Chicago in tt, when n. cClelian was put up against President Lincoln.

No, never, never, never.“ HIS REFORM RECORD. In 1866 Mr. Tilden was made Chairman of the Democratic State Committee, and was a lead- ing member of the Constitutional Convention held in 1867, serving with distinction out Finance Committee. He became an earnest and uncompromising laborer in the cause of judicial and political reform in the city of New York, and in 1869-70 was ve in o izing the Association of New Yerk City. When the contest was * aguinst the members of the Tumman ng holding city offices, who were eharged with defrauding the city treasury of many mill- ions, Gov. Tilden won great fame and took his first step toward the reform“ candidacy for the Presidency, by his cele- brated analysis of the accounts ofthe Broad- way Bank, showing conclusive) how Tweed and his pals shared their spoils and producing evidence on which they were convicted. In 1872 he was again elected to the General As- sembly, where he continued his exertions in His St. Bernard puppies. the cause of reform. In 1874 he was elected Governor of New York over Gen. John A. Dix by a plurality of 50,000 votes, reversing Dix's plurality of 50, 00 of two years before. He was inaugurated January 1, 1875, and immediately began active operations aguinst the ‘‘canal ring, which re- suited in the overthrow of that organization. ELECTED PRESIDENT. At the Democratic Convention in St. Louis in 1876 he was nominated on the second ballot, receiving 535 votes in a total of 738, two-thirds being necessary toachoice. The other votes were cast as follows: Allen, 54; Thurman, 2; Hendrick, 85; Bayard, 4; Hancock, 58. Thos. A. Headricks was nominated for Vice-Presi- dent. The result of the election as officially returned gave Gov. Tilden a majority over al of 157,394. He was, however, counted out Dy tlie memorable Electoral Commission composed of five mem- bers each from the Senate, the House and the Supreme Court, which gave the Presidency to Rutherford B. Hayes. During the excitin scenes of the winter of 1876-77,Gov. Tiiden hel himself with great patience and discretion and never gave expression to a word calcula- ted to inflame his partisans. HE RETIRED FROM ACTIVE legal life soon after this and settlin down in a quiet life at Gramercy Park, earne the name of the Sage of Gramercy. He has never expressed any repining over the loss of the Presidency and has carried himself with great loftiness of resignation. In 1880 he was mentioned again as a possible can- didate forthe Presidency, but the infirmities of age, he said, compelled him to abandon all hopes of again leading the Democratic host. Since then, however, he has been the counsel of the leading Democrats of the country and has largely shaped that party’s policy in many important measures. Al- though in such feeble health his s — ~ — Portrait of Tiiden at Graystone. weak frame has sent forth a voice which was heard in every Democratic campin the coun- try, and the power of his apparently undi- minished intellect was felt in all the broils of the New York Democracy even when he was reported to be weakest in hysical strength. His plan residence bas een the Mecca for Democratic pilgrims and the stone steps have been trod by the most august feet in the now dominant political party. eee MR. TILDEN’S HOME LIFE, How and Where the Sage Spent His Time— Graystone and Gramercy Park. The ‘‘Sage of Gramercy’’ Park was not al- together an urban character. His constitu- tion was never strong, andthe little hold he had on life was strengthened by residence in the country and his fondness for things rural that put him in the way of fresh air and other aids to health. By that lofty title given him during his candidacy for President in 1876 he was best known, al- though his residence at Gramercy Park has never been long. Afew days now and then have sufficed him. He would occasionally go there, give a dinner to a few friends and then be off to his residence on the Hudson known as Graystone. He bought the latter place in 1879. It is one of the stateliest country places on that beautiful river. The house stands on a natural knoll, the summit being 450 feet above the level of the river at high water. The rounds toward the river are in six terraces ashioned by the hand of nature. Opposite stand the bold outline of the grandest part of the Palisades forming a striking feature of the landscape. The Peeks- kill mountains are in plain view | to the northeast and the broad Tappan Zee seen through the vistas ofarching trees looks like a mountain-locked lake. A broad piazza extends the length of the western side of the house and you look down upon the fpistoning Hudson through openings cut in the forest trees. The ; dwelling built of graystone is a grand pile, although its stately appearance is somewhat marred by a mansard roof. A noble hail 20x70 feet runs through the center.

The special features of this house are the dining-room and suite of sleeping apartments on the second floor. The dining-rocw is square and the walls are of satinwood, the panels being carved. Satinwood formsa frame for the ceiling in which blue tiles are set. The wood in which the sleeping rooms are finished is also satin- wood. These rooms occupy the entire front of the house. The walls are rich in fresco. Mr. Tilden’s fondness for pets showed itself most at Graystone, but was present in ev- idence at Gramercy Park, where he had a number of St. Bernard puppies and Mal- tese cats. His life has latterly been cheered by the presence with him contin- uously of the daughters of the late Henry Tilden, Misses Susan and Rose Tilden. They have resided at Graystone, but have fre- quently gone to the city with him when he was called there. The fate of his magnificent library will be the most interesting itein of consideration now with book tovers. As was said previously, it is wonderfully complete in specjal lines, and no more complete collection of illustrated books can be found anywhere than the dead sage possessed.

August 4.—Little sur- prise was expressed here this morning at the announcement of the death of Samuel J. Til- den. Politicians and financiers, and especially those from New York, have known fora year that the death of Tilden was only a question of a very short time. Sen- ator Beck gave utterance to the sentiment ofa number of other statesmen when he said to your correspondent just before noon: ‘‘The effect Tilden’s death willhave upon politics has long since been discounted. His death will be regretted everywhere. He was a patriotic citizen, wise in counsel, and his demise will be felt in every branch of not only the Government interests, but those of the people.’’ Ex-Speaker Randall, who was the most inti- mate friend Tilden had in Congress, said:“ This death takes from our Government identity one of its most ardent and potent friends. For many years he has been the persistent friend of the propositions to revive American shipping interests, rebuild the Navy, rehibili- tate the coast defenses and make American in- terests felt in all parts of the world. No man, Mr. Randall said, ‘‘had more sincere orardenta desire to see the United States progress and htr institutions and the interests of her people thrive than Tilden.’’ Quite a number of telegrams expressing sympathy and regret have been forwarded to New York. Immediately upon the assembling of the House of Representatives this morning a resolution was introduced by Mr. Springer of Illinois, and unanimously adopted, ex- pressing the sympathy of the bones upon Til- den's death.

The announcement of Samuel J. Tuden's death was made early to-day on ’Change, the Western Union posting the news upon ‘their blackboard even before business commenced. The news was received very quietly by the members, it exciting only passing comment. Bulletins were posted in the offi- ces of the different down-town hotels and at the Post-Dispatcn office. Politicians appeare be mostly inter- ested, and expressions of regret upon somebod and up to the time of going to press the mat- ter had not been definitely decided upon. Secretary Lane of the Hendricks Associa- tion when askedif the association would take action upon Mr. Tiiden’s death said that no meeting of the club had been called yet, but he thought it likely that something would be donc. THE ANARCHISTS. The Defense Trying to Establish a Case of Mistaken Identity. CHICAGO, August 4.—There was the usual crowd in the Criminal Court-room this morn- ing when the trial of the eight Anarchists was resumed. Conrad Messer declared that he went from Zepp’s Hall, the Socialists’ head- quarters, to the Haymarket just before the police arrived. He testificd that he saw both Spies and Fielden on the wagon when the police arrived. He said he returned to Zepp’s Hall when the police began to shoot. August Krumm, a woodworker, testified that he attended the Haymarket meeting with a friend named Albright; went into Crane’s Alley to light their pipes owing to the fact that the wind was blowing on the street. Krumm has red hair, but his face and head muchre, semble Spies. This testimoney, the defense expect, will offset Gilmer’s evidence. They will contend that Gilmer took him for Spies and that instead of lighting a bomb he was en- gaged in lighting nothing more harmful than a pipe of tobacco. POOR WITNESSES. On the cross-examination the witness was subjected to a very severe questioning by the States’ Attorney, and not only seriously contradicted his own narrative but that of other witnesses for the defense. He declared that there were no boxes on the sidewalk at the point designated by the other witnesses for the defense, and from which it was claimed the bomb was thrown. When asked to point out Spies, whom he claimed to have heard speak, the witness pointed out Fieiden. Robert Lidinger said he stood at the entrance of the alley arm in arm with his friend Carl Richer. He testified that, after the bomb ex- ploded, the police appeared to be doing all the shooting. He saw no one else re. On the cross- examination Lidinger testified that he did not see any boxes on the sidewalk. Wm. Albright who was expected to corrob- orate the story related by Krumm, testified that he went into the alley just before the explo- sion. He heard one shot fired before the bomb exploded aud that it came fromthe direction of the police. The witness saw no one else in the alley except Krumm and himself. The bomb was not thrown from the alley. Before being subjected to a cross-examination the court adjourned. NOT SCHNAUBELT. Lieut. Shea of the Detective Department received by express, yesterday, the clothes ofthe man who was found in a river at Erie, Pa., and was supposed to be Sennaubelt, the thrower ofthe bomb which did such havoc among the police at the Haymarket last May. When the body was found the authorities of Erie supposed, from descriptions, thut they had found the remains of Sennaubelt, an at once telegraphed to the au- thorities here. It was doubted’ that the body was that of Schnaubelt, but to besure Lieut. Shea had the clothes sent here. Schnaubelt is known to be a man of about six feet in height and about 200 pounds in weight. The clothes received yes- terday had been worn by aman about five feet eight inches in height and who could not have weighed more than 160 pounds. The garments were evidently not his and the sup- ,osition is that the bomb-thrower is still at arge. MARVIN CAMP. The Big Meeting that Begins To-Morrow Evening.

CHICAGO, August 4.—The fact is announced in the local papers that the Trades Unions, the Knights of Labor, Central Labor Union and allthe German and Bohemian labor or- ders, are about to enter the political field in earnest. A legislative ticket will be nom- inated in every district and the candidates selected for the support of the laboring men will be men who are known as good friends of the sons of toil. Men will be nominated of both parties and the whole strength of these various orders will be brought to bear in favor of their elections. The leaders claim they have failed to accomplish their object b t and they are resolved to soak political se: ment, and thus effect a decided reform in the matter of labor by changing the legislation of the State.

Loxpon, August 4.—England is particularly well governed just now, having two Govern- ments. The first of these is the official Con- gervative Cabinet which meets to-day to dis- cuss what action will be taken if the Liberal leaders meet for precise information on the Irish policy, assuming that the reference in the speech from the throne is unsatisfactory. This is the nut which will puzzle them to crack. The second of the Governments, the unofficial Whig Cabinet, meets, curiously enough, atsame hourat Hartington’s, the momentous question for consideration being whether Hartington shall sit on the front op- position bench with the Gladstonian leaders. His followers naturally wish him to do so, as indicating that they have in no way departed from the lines of Liberal conviction and tra- dition. Hartington, however, is a man of very great natural courtesy, anditis unlikely that they will pe rsuade him into what would be in- consistent in practice however proper in theory Hints are in circulation that the Queen may open parliament in person onthe 19th. There is no confirmation of this as yet. THE NEW IRISH OFFICIALS. Londonderry and Hicks-Beach leave for Dublin to-morrow to take formal possession of their new offices. There has been nothing like it since O’Connell, is the universal verdict on the triumphal departure of Lord and Lady Aberdeen. Aberdeen said yesterday that no language of his could convey anything likea just appreciation of the extraordinary scenes through which they had just passed, Lord Mayor Sullivan said it was unparalleled in Anglo-Irish history. Of course, the Tory pa- pers profess to regard itas gotup artificially to strengthen Gladstone’s hands. Englmnd. IRELAND’S NEW RULERS. LONDON, August 4.—Sir Michael Hicks-Beach and the Marquis of Londonderry will start for Dublin to-morrow. The Standard this morn- ing says: ‘‘The state entry of the new Lord Lieutenant will doubtless be a brilliant affair, butafterthe wild enthusiasm of yesterday, any ordinary pageant will appear tame. It was a demonstration in favor of home rule, which Mr. Gladstone, at the proper time, will doubtless make the most of. Lord London- derry and Sir Michael Hicks-Beach must be content to dispense with an approbation which ts to be won only at so perilous a price.“ 5 The Times, alluding to the demonstration in Dublin yesterday upon the departure of the Earl of Aberdeen, says: It would be absurd toattemptto draw any conclusion from a spectacie which, though not without its pleas- ing features, chiefly illustrates the instability and insincerify of the Celtic character. All the scenic apparatus is ready to show Ire- land’s heart hatred of England when it suits the stage managers to change the perform- ance.’’ ° OPPOSING MATTHEWS. The Radicals of Birmingham, with the con- sent of Mr. Chamberlain, will oppose the re- electiou to Parliament of Mr. Matthews, the newly appointed Home Secretary. This isthe first sign of a breach in the Conservative- Unionist pact. THE CABINET COUNCIL. The new Cabinet is to-day holding its first meeting. A large crowd surrounded the Downing street office and cheered che min- isters as they arrived. Ireland. PARNELL IN DUBLIN. DUBLIN, August 4.—Mr. Parnell has arrived in Dublin to attend the meeting of his party to-day. THE ABERDEEN OVATION. The Dublin Express (Loyalist) says thateven a stranger might notice that respectable citi- zens were absent from the gathering of yes- terday. The Dublin Lrish Times (Loyalist) says the affair was one-sided and was purely a Gladstone display. Conservative newspapers in Engiand adopt this view of the demonstra- tion, but the Dublin correspondent of the Lon don Times, who is reputed to be a Tory and an Orungeman, telegraphs to his paper that the ovation has not been equalled since the days of O'Connell. ‘‘For the first time in the his- tory of Ireland,“ he says, a Viceroy has de- molished the barriers separating imperial dig- nity from the sentiment of the masses, thereby merging the rule of the Queen in that of the sovereign people. LOKD ABERDEEN INTERVIEWED. Lord Aberdeen was interviewed at Kings- town last evening by a reporter, who ques- tioned him concerning the ovation tendered to him yesterday at Dublin on his departure from that city. Lord Aberdeen said he had been impressed by the good temper and cour- tesy shown by the 3 who took part in the demonstration. The processionists were or- derly, and there was nothing in the actions ot. the great crowd which could have been con- sidered aggressive or annoying to their political opponents. a was a demonstration for Gladstone, said Lord Aberdeen, it was none the less one ot kindly feeling, while at the same time there were exhibited signs of extreme spontaneity of public opinion. THE FREEMAN'S JOURNAL ON THE OVATION. The London Freeman’s Journal (Mr. Par- neli’s organ) says: Lord Aberdeen came to Ireland as a herald of peace. The Irish democracy finding the message withdrawn, resolved that he should convey the assurance that they are ready to clap hand in friendship with the British democracy while they are re- solved to maintain Ireland’s rights at all odds.’’ Turkey.

TILDEN re- moves a remarkable figure from Ameri- can political life. Though for years he has lived in retiracy and seclusion, a subtle and potent influence has continu- ously gone out from him which made him a more important political character than many an active politician. He was pre- eminently a political sage, and his words of counsel or admonition were always re- ceived with deference and respect by men of all parties. Mr. TILDEN enjoyed through life a guarded self-control both in word and deed. His most positive actions and most important utterances were distinguished with a peculiar dignity and bore evidence of conscientious deliberation. His life was ennobled with the spirit of a serene intellectual contempla- tion that raised him above the noisy arena of practical politics with its repel- lent tumult and demoralizing tendencies. His influence on the politics of nis country was indirect, but not the less enduring and effective. The studious seclusion of his declining years could not hedge in the forces of his vigorous mind and his won- derfui personality; and his words and writings continued to be caught up, as having something of the weight and value of oracular deliverances. Mr. TILDEN’S career has left a deep im- press on the thought of his country. His life has taught us that politics is not per se an unworthy and ignoble vocation; that itis possible for a good man to dig- nify and elevate a profession which he finds to be unworthy of his ambition and his gifts. He has so lived that his coun- trymen, without regard to party affilia- tion, can unite in offering a befitting trib- ute to his memory and his work. TAKE THE HALF LOAP. The House would be justified in firmly refusing its concurrence in the Senate amendments to the surplus resolution if there were any prospect of thus securing the concurrence of theSenate in the adop- tion of the original. original is better than the amended form, the latter is such a concession to the prin- ciple embodied in the former that its de- feat by the House would be a political mistake. Aside from the trade dollar amendment, which is not germane, the only difference between the two forms is that the Senate’s gives a margin of discretion to the Execu- tive which the other does not give. The original forbids the retention of morethan 510,000, 000 of surplus in excess of the $100, - 000,000 retained for the redenrption of greenbacks, while the amended resolution expressly authorizes the Secretary in his discretion either to use all of the surplus in excess of #100,000,000 in redeeming bonds or toretain a surplus of $120,000,000, and as much more as the President may order him to retain in view of any emergency which, in the President’s opinion, may justify such order. If the amended resolution is defeated by the House, that body will obviously be responsible for the defeat of a resolu- tion admitting that $75,000,000 of the pres- ent surplus of $175,000,000 may be safely used in redeeming bonds, and further declaring in substance that $55,000,000 of it should be so used, and that not more than $120,000,000 should ever be retained except by special order from the Presi- dent, who is therein expressly required to report every such order to Congress with his reasons therefor at the earliest oppor- tunity. Both parties in their platforms stand pledged against the accumulation and re- tention of such an enormous surplus as now cumbers the Treasury. The Demo- crats of the House and a Democratic Ad- ministration have insisted on reducing the surplus by reducing the taxes, but have been prevented by a Republican Senate. Now the Democratic House has tried to have the surplus kept down to $100,000,000 by a resolution which would cause the re- demption of $75,000,000 of bonds and the saving of $2,500,000 of interest to tax-payers every year, and the Republican Senate has simply refused to pass that resolution except in such ashape thatits rejection will throw upon the Democratic party the responsibility for retaining the pres- ent surplus in the Treasury. On the other hand, if the House accepts the amended resolution as the best it can get from a Republican Senate, the responsi- bility for locking up more than $100,000, - 000 will be shared between the President and the Republican Senate, while the credit of reducing the surplus to $120,000, - 000 will belong to the representatives of the Democracy in the House. ee ee — Ir the Republic of Mexico cannot en- force its authority in the State of Chihua- hua on account of the obstructive meas- ures of the State authorities, then it would seem that said State isin a condition of rebellion against the Mexican Govern- ment. It this turns out to be true, the United States may have to deal independ - ently with Chihuahua for offenses com- mitted by the people or officials of that State against residents of this country. A Mexican State cannot declare war or make a treaty, or enter into any interna- tional negotiations as a state. The State Department cannot properly recognize But although the Senator provides tor & national Chihuahua in negotiating with the Mexican Government in reference to the Cutting case. President CLEVELAND, in response to a Senate resolution, has sent to that body a mass of correspondence between the Secretary of State and the Mexican Government touching the case. The mat- ter submitted contains much that is irrel- evant. For instance, M. MakEsCarL, the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Affairs, in reply to a demand for CUTTING’S release, replied that he had recommended the ‘‘Governor of Chihuahua to see that „prompt and full justice be adminis- ‘‘tered.”? This is not a competent re- sponse to the summary demand of the Secretary of State. ~~» _ | UNDER all the excitement caused by the expulsion of the Princes, the election of members of the Conseiles Generaux has resulted in the return of 847 Republicans and 411 Conservatives, a net gain of only 7 for the latter. When we consider the labor troubles now distressing France, the dissensions among Republicans. their dis- satisfaction with the present ministry and the success of the Conservatives in uniting all the anti-Republican factions under one banner, this election shows that the French people are firmly Republican in the proportion of more than two to one. . c THE Mexican states seem to be tied together with arotten yarn string.

One of the greatest of the evils that afflict the industries of Pennsylvania and those de- pendent upon them is railroad discrimination and monopoly. The Constitutionai Conven- tion recognized this fact, and placed in the instrument it drafted provisions intended to meet and conquerit. The people, by an un- precedented majority, adopted that instru- ment as the fundamental law of the State. It includes a specific demand thatthe Legislat- ure shall inforce the anti-discrimination and monopoly provisions by appropriate legisla- tion. Yet for twelve years that command has been disobeyed, and the late Republican Con- vention deliberately refused to declare that it should be obeyed. The Democratic Conven- tion will make no such mistake. It will go upon record on this subject in the plainest of plain English, and the issue that will. thus be joined between the two parties will constitute, we repeat, the chiefof the dangers to which the Beaver ticket is subjected. If the people were true to themselves it would bury that ticket under a majority as large as was given for the Constitution, of which the presenta- tion of that ticket and the piatform on which it stands is a plain and flagrant defiance. Interstate Commerce, From the Chicago Herald. There is one very great difference between the House and the Senate bills on this subject. Mr. Reagan's measure is for regulation that regulates. Mr. Cullom's is an esthetic meas- ure not calculated to hurt anybody much. Mr. Reagan's bristles with penalties. Mr. Cullom’s is mildand pleasant. Both have the short-haul idea, but only that of the Illinois com- mission. Infact, underhis plan the com- missioners will have the regulation of the railroads, It they are favorable to the corporations, as they probably will be, the latter will not be troubled much with the law. The Reagan bill is long and explicit, and of- fenses under it are dealt with the same as other misdemeanors in the courts of the United States. Whether the House pili goes too far or not, it is probably true that the Sen- ate bill does not go tar enough. The sincerity of the body which passed it has been ques · tioned many times. It has refused tor more than ten years even to consider the Reagan bill, which the house has sent to it on several occasions. Honoring a Left Hand Duchess. From a Paris Letter. Not content with striking the Duc d' Au- male s name off the army list and banishing him from the French territory, the Govern- ment has just added insult to injury by deco- rating his mistress, Leonide Leblanc, with the order of ‘‘OMicier de l’ Academie’’ for her lit erary services.

The Senate’s Ahsurdity. From the Philadelphia Times. The absurdity of the Senate secret session was illustrated anew the other day, when the galleries had been cleared in order that the Senators might enjoy the proper degree of solitude to enable them to determine whether Mr. Jenks was a proper person to fill the office of Solicitor-General. By some fortuitous cir- cumstance the door-keeper missed a sight- seeing citizen of this great Republic, who ad- vanced to the front seat of one of the galleries and looked down upon the assembled mighty men in an approving sort of way. He nearly frightened the stickiers for Senatorial exclu- sion to death when they discovered him. A dozen of the Senators immediately engaged in a gesticulatory pantomime that was ludierous- ly suggestive of a lot of old women shooing a mischievous hen out ot the garden. The awful sanctity of Senatorial secrecy may be very real and imposing to Senators, but to common- sense mortals it is about the most ridiculous thing on earth at the present day. Resemblance to Great Men. From the Atlanta Constitution. The resemblance of William M. Lowry to Jefferson Davis has often been noted. Not the Davis of the present day, for age has dimmed his eye, softened his features and mellowed the strength of his earlier years; but the Davis of twenty-five years ago, when, full of hope and determination, he defied the men who crossed his purposes. It is the Mr. Davis whose picture is familiar to the world at large to whom Mr. Lowry bears reseniblance. W. A. Powell is the Abraham Lincoln of Atlanta. During his recent incumbency of the tax collector’s office, where he was prom- inently brought before the people, his re- markable likeness to the War President was often noticed. One day an Illinois gentiemen who happened to be visiting the city saw the familiar figure and followed it for several] biocks. On returning to the Kimball House he said: ‘‘I feel that Il have seen the ghost of Abraham Lincoln.’’ The Preponderance of Evidence, From the Globe-Democrat. Delegate Pishon was yesterday acqultted on the charge of drunkenness in office, for which the last Grand-jury indicted him. The State had one witness who saw Mr. Pishon drunk; the defense had twenty witnesses who did not see Mr. Pishon drunk, There was a man tried some years ago for stealingapig. One witness swore point blank that he saw the detendant carry the animal off under his arm. This made matters look bad for the defendant until his attorney went to a neighboring saloon and brought in adozen men, each and every one of whom swure that he did not see the defend- ant steal a pig. ‘‘In this case,’’ said the Judge, ‘‘there is a preponderance of evidence in favor of the defendant, and he will be dis- charged.’’ ‘ THE METROPOLITAN PRESS. What the Editors of the New York Journals Are Saying This Morning. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTca. New YorxK, August 4.—The WORLD says to- day: ‘‘Itis unfortunate for the United States that a man of sucha disreputable character as Cutting appears to possess should be the oc- casion of what may now seriously be consid- ered an imbroglio with Mexico. But there is a principle at stake, and there can be no dis- tinction of persons in such matters. There is no individual so mean that he is nottobe granted all the protection of the law ofthe flag that a citizen of the United States is en- titled to THE 8UN. The Sun says: Mr. Cleveland dreams ofa new Democratic party which shall leave the old tried paths of Democratic truth for wan- dering in strange ways with blind guides. So much the worse for Cleveland, but itis proba- ble he has otber things to think of. t any rate, the old party will keep on in the old way, too great to be dependent on any man’s politi- cal vagaries or fortunes, and strong enough to survive its worst mistakes and disasters, so long as itis not false to the immortal princi- ples by which it exists. There is no demand and no occasion for any new Democracy. THE TIMES. The Times says: Mexican outrages against our citizens are numerous and irritating. Their laws and customs give their ofticiais reat power over the property, liberty and ives, both of Mexican and of American resi- dents in Mexico. At the same time it must be rather discouraging to the State Department whenever it tries to pitch on any one specific outrage to find it starting with a wrong on the American part, as in the case ot Cutting and Rasures. Of course, however, the punishmeut of Mondragon and his men must be demunded and it can be insisted on with absolute assur- ance of success, since the Mexican authorities themselves will hardly like to trust the execu- tion of their laws to men convicted of using them for private veageance.’’ THE TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: The session must have convinced many Democrats that their arty is not yet fit for the responsibilities of government. Putting aside all other reasons, it is a fatal ob- jection that the party is not of one mind on vital questions. Itis split into factions which war with each other so passionately and un- ceasingly thatthe country can get nothing done. If itis claimed the factions are com- posed of sincere and patriotic men, all anxious to do their duty, so much the worse. The dis- eement is in that case hopeless and lasting. en who want free trade and men who want protection can find no common round. THE PEOPLE’S FORUM. Prohibition Tacties. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: Will you please state in which sections of the country the Prohibitionists want to ex- clude the negroes from primary elections?’’ In making 80 serious a charge would it be any more than fair to give authority instead of basing it on ‘‘it is reported?’’ JUSTICE. [This desire on the part of Prohibjtionists has been manifested at Columbus, Artesia and in Hinds County, Mississippi; in Richmond, Va., and in various other towns and neighbor- hoods where there is a considerable negro population. This sentiment is due to the fact that the negroes vote almost solidiy against Prohibition. It would be easy to es- tablish constitutional Prohibition in several Southern States if it were not for the ne- gro vote.—EDITOR POST- DISPATCH. | ANSWERS TO COBRESPONDENTS. ont S.

Sunday. while upon the floor of the House his own faction had him. One occasion was terms. had been intoxicated upon the floor. 24, and the same witnesses as in Pishon case, with the acdition of George Wenzliek, were ven. The of these witnesses testified before the Grand- jury that he had been told by John Vogei that aters was so intoxicated at that time that he had been taken home by his triends, but the witness arrived at the House too late that night to see Waters. Mr. Vogel’s statement was printed in an interview in the Post- DISPATOH on June 28 and was as follows: Why, Ihave seen men so drunk upon that floor they could not stand. Waters, Thursda night, came in so drunk that he coul — stand by holding on to the desk with his hands. There was a motion to — 2 before the House, and he pulled him- self out of his chair and said: ‘M-r-r. Schpe- ker, lwant ter she zee bill.’ There is no bill before the House,’ Alt told him, but he kept yelling he wanted to see the biil. If he wasn’t drunk I don’t know what the word means. If Mr. Vogel was examined by the Grand. jury on this point he certainly reiterated that statement, for he made it in substance upon the floor of the House on the evening of its publication, and other members substantiated this in private conversations. Yet neither the name of Mr. Vogel or @myone else competent to testify to Waters’ condition was named upon the in- dictment. Mr.Wenzlick was not present until late in that session, and was not competent to testify as to the condition of aman ata time when he had not seen him. The Grand-jury was also told thaton the morning the House considered the taxation of the new limits Waters was so drunk he had to be taken into — committee- room, where he slept until sober. An indictment was returned against Charles D. Keenan on testimony which accused him of having whisky on the floor of the House, of which he drank and from which he was mildly intoxicated. It was not testimony that justi- fled the indictment, however deplorable the young man’s condition had been. Given these inéictments, with the meagre list of three witnesses for the prosecution, J. R. Claiborne, the Prosecuting Attorney, made no effort to secure more witnesses nor tolearn the value of the testimony to be gotten from the three persons named as the State’s wit- nesses. e went to trial without so much as reading the law under which the indict- ments were drawn orthe indictments them- selves. That the trials were farces under such circumstances is not wonderful. Mr. Clai- borne did not act as if he had any intention of convicting the Delegates, His examinations were trivial and flippant. He regarded the whole proceeding as a joke. e made a mockery of a courtof justice and the Judge of that Court did not rebuke him. The first witness paces upon the stand showed the position of the Prosecutor. It was Delegate Hammerstein who was called upon to testify in the Pishon case. A few formal ques- tions wereasked and then the question as to the defendant's condition on the date mentioned in the indictment. The witness did not know whether the defendant was drunk upon that occasion or not, did not think he was. Then I’ye the wrong witness’’ said the prosecutor naively. That was his little joke. The reporter whose disclosures of drunken- ness in the House had caused his expui- sion from the floor was then put upon the stand. He testified that on the night Tn ques- tion Pishon was intoxicated; defendant bad stood very near the witness who had seen his condition 1 defendant had howled his votes in a drunken and boisterous manner and 2 called to order several times by Speaker Ed Butiler’s son, who appeared for the de- tense, undertook the cross-examination and dwelt upon the witness’ knowledge of intoxi- cation and its degrees. On the conclusion of the cross-exXamination the witnesses for the defense were placed poe the stand. Then began the buffoonery. Mr. Claiborne did not endeavor to show the interest lobbyists had in testifying to the Delegates’ sobriety, but on cross-examination 1 as a humorist.

The Directory Board of the North St. Louis Turners met last night at Twentieth and Salis bury streets, and transacted routine business. The greasy, dirty-looking coal oil lamps in use in the Third Police District Station, Ser- enth and Carr streets, for the past year, are to give way to gas lamps in afew days. Coal oil lights were tried to test their saving qualities, and averaged about $25 per mont in cost. Officers Sullivan and Cummings of the Fourth District have been placed on detective duty in that district by Capt. Peter Joyce. The body oi Carrie Dalton, the young lady, 16 years old, who was accidentally drowned ut the foot-of Chambers street, Monday after- noon, was recovered this morning.

HE CHASED HER. William Robinson’s Queer Method of Show ing His Affection. William Robinson and Maggie Moore, both colored, were before Judge Cady this morning on counter-charges of disturbing the peace. On the night of August 1 Maggie and William got into a row and William, who became wild with rage, drew a revolver and knife on her, and said he would cut her heart out. Without waiting to give bim an opportunity to cut out the aforesaid portion of her anatomy the wom- revolver in hand, in hot pursuit. He ran her through an alley between Sixth and Seventh streets to Spruce street, and ap Spruce sireet to Seventh, where the woman ran into a drug store for protection. There a police officer binson, but the latter made au at- tempt to cut him before he was subdued. In eourt this inorning he was rather insolent, and im $100 and disvebarged the woman. She pleaded guilty to a charge of keeping adisreputable house that had also been preferred against her, but was let off in it on the payment of a $i0 fine. TWO FIGHTS. Quarreling Citizens Fined in the Second District Court. Most of the time of the Second District Police Court was taken up this morning listen ing to the details of the tight which took place between Collie Keys and William Dickson, two gentlemen of ebony hue, in an alley near Claggett avenue, in West St. Louts. Dickson was conversing and skylarking with a girl. Emma Washington by name, in the alley when Keys appeared on the scene and threat- ened to kill him if he did not let his girl alone. The testimony here is conflicting. Keys claimed that Dickson drew a knife on bim and assaulted him, and in order to rotect himself be procured an ax and struck Dickson. Some witnesses stated that he struck him with the sharp edge of the ax on the head, while others claim the ax was thrown and the handle hit him. Oertain it is, there is a large cut on Dickson’s head, which will remind him of the ht for some time to come. Keys was fined and Dickson $% and costs. Officers vars and Gorman arrested John Ward and his wile, for indulging in a free fight in an alley in the neighborhood of the Third District Police Station. The man was fined $10 and the woman was discharged. A SERIOUS CHARGE. John Johnson Accused of Young Girl Last night Officers Maloney and Bartlett of Capt.

Incompetency of the Democrats to Adminis- ter Government Affairs, the Principle Point to Be Made by the Republicans— Alleged Incapacity of the House—Re- duction of Tariff and Internal Revenue Taxation—Cleveland’s Ad istratiou—A Clean Western Republican for Presi- dent. 8 By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—Mr. Ed- munds has the reputation of being one of the most unapproachable of public men. He 1s very rarely quoted in any newspaper and when he is it is generally through the medium of some third person. He does most of his talking inthe Senate where, during the last session, he has boen one ofthe most conspicu- ous figures in the debates. Ifound him yes- verday afternoon in the wide, beautifully lighted parlor of his new house. Its interior jg a model of simplicity and good taste. The Senator sat upon the linen covered sofa, dressed in a dark blue flannel suit and Ghatted as easily and gracefully upen current topics as if he were a new member of Congress. I asked Mr. Edmunds what he thought would be the issues in the coming campaign. He said: 1 think that the prin- cipal point to be made by the Republicans is the incompetency of the Democrats to admin- ister the affairs of the Government. The House has done nothing of general im- portance. The Senate has sent over to it important legislation and the House has simply refused to consider it, Its timidity and lack of grasp were conspicuous features ot its record. The House is subject to special criticism for ite failure to reduce tariff and intornal revenue taxation. These taxes, when they were laid, were proper and necessary. The times are changed. These taxesare now, to a considerable extent, a necdless burden constantly piling up a sur- plus which is a continued temptation to EXTRAVAGANT AND WASTEFUL. LEGISLATION. The House has shown its business incapacity in this by failing to devise aud carry through some wise plan for tax reduction. Then the Ifouse, only in the last hour, took up the inter-State commerce subject, sent to it by the Senate, and by its passing the Reagan biII practically said nothing should be done. Not but what I sympathize with Mr. Reagan and the objocts of his billy-I believe in restraining these cor porations as fur as can be under the constitu- tion, but think the Cullom bill was a better measure and.one in the end best calculated to secure the objects desired by Mr. Reagun. The passage ot the two bills is equivalent to the defeat of the proposition to establish Govern ment supervision of inter-state commerce. It has been said in behalf of the Democratic Administration that the party had been out of power for twenty-five years and its leaders bad lost all knowledge in conducting public business, and wouid therefore make mistakes until they could have time to acquire experience. 1 do not think that this is a good defense. The President of the United States was formerly Governor of a great State. Ile took as three of his principal advisers veteran public m. who certuinly cannot be excused ior any mistakes on ac- count of inexperience. The principal criti- cism that I should pass upon this Administra- tion, and the one that will be made by the Re- publicans in the canvass,is the very poor class of men selected to fill the Federal offices. There are in all communities plenty of good Democrats. All that is required is a certain knowledge of men anda little common sense in waking its selection. lsaid at the outset of Mr. Cleveland’s admin- istration that I bad no doubt he intended to do exactly right and to make the best pogsible appoiutments, but that the party would prove TOO STKONG FOR HIM, and the pressure would be too great. I think that this remark, which 1 did not make at that time for publication, and which reached pub- lie print through a third person, bas been borne out by facts... 1 And yet it is said that the President has hada smaller percentage of nominations re- jetted than uny previous President. This might be true and yet disprove noth- ing which 1 have said concerning those ap- — The Democrats vote solidly for their appointments as a general thing and ignore everything shown inthe way of unfit- met of character, shrugging their shoulders with indifference at all kinds of charges.’’ But their votes are not enough to con- firm?’’ True, but there are certain Republicans who believe in the spoils idea and think that the President has the right to make higown selections and they are willing to confirin, leaving the responsibility with the appointing power. Iu all of my twenty years’ experience in the Senate, there has not been such a large number of bad appointments before the Sen- ate fur contirination as during the past year.’’ ‘*That isa arene statement.’’ ‘*You will und itis borue out by the facta. AtleastI speak for the two committees of which lam a member, and Ithink the records of other commitiees will sustain my state- ment. „Po you think that the Republicans will cary the next House?’’ doubt it; lam not certain that it would be an advantage for us to carry it. The re- sponsibility for originating legislation there now is with the Democrats, and if it were to be controlled by Republicans under a Demo- cratic President, it would not be a satisfactory condition of things for us irom a party stand- point.’’ FUTURE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. Mat do you think of the future of the Re- publican party?’’ think it has a good future?“ Do you think it will be a harmonious party in 1888 and that you will have a good chance for electing a Republican President then?“ It depends who is nominated. If the Re- publicans go to the West and select some good, clean, upright man, with an honest record upon financial questions, aman who is above reproach, the chances for the Repub- licans electing their candidate will be, I should say, seven oat of ten. The Senator went on to say, as he stroked his beard thoughtfully: ‘‘The Democrats have u certain advantage in the Presidential cam- paign which cannot be overlooked. They have a solid South, obtained, as we Republicaus pé- lieve, by intimidation and gross trauds, There are few outrages of violence now, yet we be- lieve it certain thatthe ballot of the South is not free, and that will be one of the comin issues upon which the Republican party wi make its fight—a free baliot and an honest count. The Democratic party, as the situa- tion now stands, can command in any emer- gency andinthe light of any circumstances the entire vote of the solid South. All that is York" beyond that is to carry New The Senator was asked what he thought of the President's exercise of the veto powers The Senator replied: 1 am a pretty sincere believer in the vitality of the constitutional division of the powers of this Government. It is a distinct provision of the Constitution that the President shall approve and sign all bills pasaed a! Congress before they shall become — * * 888 his right to disap- : .

To be consistent he either should have refused to sign all of them, in my judgment, upon the theory that Congress should not pass special] bills of this class, or he should have vetoed none of them, He might have heid that the general law upon the subject of pensions should be made to cover all granting of pen- sions, and that where the law was defective it should have been amended. This is the actual state of affairs. Most ot the people interested inthese pension cases eviously made application under the general law to the Com. missioner of Pensions, and upon his rejection of their claims they ap to Congress, Then when Congress n of their claims they were sent to the President, and he in turn sought the Opinion of the power which had just rejected the same clai Of course he could not know anything about these Glaitns ; he had to rely upon the Pension Office. n other words the very court which had give un adverse decision in the case was called Epos +o review, as a court oi appeal, the action r Edmunds was asked what he t of | the President.

He sald: 1 never have deen wort much in the habit of going to the White House under any Administration, as I do not do much business in the office-seeking way.

Jf have to judge bim by his acts, and in my criticism of those acts I have indirectly given you my opinion im. fh . THE FOREIGN APYOINTMEDTS, The Senator then went on tospeak of the foreign appointments of the State Department. He said that notwithstanding Mr. Bayard’s at experience as a public man, he seemed most unfortunate in his appointments. There has probably been no range of appointments under eye of the Department which have afforded such targets for legitimate criticism as the appointments of Mr. Bayard. He what he thought about Mr. Garland. He replied; ‘‘I haye previously given my opinion of him in the open Senute, and some of my critics have com - mented severely upon that opinion. I think Garland is an honest man, but I do think that he made a mistake. His mistake was accept- ing an interest in a speculative 8 a when he was a Senator.

When the case of Ben Kimball, one of the insurance agents indicted by the Grand-jury for violating the insurance law, was called in the Court of Criminai Correction yesterday Col. C. P. Ellerbe, attorney for the Insurance Department, stated that tne only object of the prosecutions wastoenforce the law and col- lect the revenue due from insurance com- panies. There was no desire to have any man ined or imprisoned aud if Mr. Kimball would make the same promfse as Mr. Blossom to violate the law no more the case against him would be nolle prosequied with permission of the Court. Mr. Bond, attorney for Mr. Kimball, who is anon-Board agent, said his client was not acting for insurance companies, but in the in- terest of the insured. He did not see that he had violated any law, and wauld not promise to give up the business in which he was en- gaged until the Court had held that it was il - legal. Mr. Kimball had never wilfully vio- lated any law, and would promise not to yio- late the law as he understood it, but was not prepared to accept the construction placed on the statutes by the Insurance Department until the courts held that it was a proper one. At Mr. Bond's request the case was continued until September 2. Me., Kimball says he will alidity of the law thoroughly. STABBED IN THE DARE. test the J. G.

He was taken to the County Hospital, where the phy- sicians found a deep cuta qVarter of an inch longin his left side, below the ribs, and thought the indications were that the liver has been penetrated. Fletcher at first refused to tell who assaulted him, but finaily said it was his wife. He said he wentto their rooms, which were dark, and, as he stepped in the door, the woman stabbed him. Mrs. Fletcher wes arrested at midnight and locked up at the Armory. She does not deny that she stabbed her husband: but claims that she did it in selt- defense, being drivento desperation by the cruelty of Fletcher. SHOT A MELON THIEF.

E. B. Rankin of Boston, the intermediary through whom Mr. J. A. St. John has arranged the match race with William Beach, tele- graphed this morning as follows: J. A. St. John, St. Louis, Mo. „Match with Beach guaranteed. Have re- ceived cable message saying send over. Gau- daur, articles and money. Mail articles to me at once. When a reporter for the Post-DISPATCH calied on Mr. St. Joan this morning that gen- tleman was busy at work thinking up the ar- ticles of agreement under which the St. Louis man will row the champion of the world. The main point of difference between these articles of agreement and those which are made out for American races lies in the difference of the eourse adopted by the two countries; the American, asa general rule, using a course with aturn andthe English a straight course. The course on the Thames, it will be remem- bered, isa straight, measuring four and one- half miles in length. The terms will again vary in the stipulation that the race shall be rowed according to the provision of the code governing London Boat Ciub races, and these differ in a few unim- portant points from the American code. The latter rules were published in the PostT-Dis- PATCH a few months ago. Mr. St. John willgomplete the work of draw- ing up the articles to-day and probably send them to Rankin by — yn mail. Hamm and Gaudaur will leave for Engiand on the Cunard line to-morrow. They have concluded to depart earlier than at first antic- ipated so as to have whatever advantage can be gained by a familiarity with the English championship course. — ee EO — „THE BIG SMASH. Mysterious Meetings of Base Ball Manag- ers at Washington, D. C. The New York WORLD has the following in reference to the coming breakup in base ball: Thatthere will be many radical changes in base ball next season is now admitted by those who are best informed, and there are many schemes in process of hatching. The great in- terest in tho League pennant race has enabled the schemers to go along quietly and avoid any publicity, but the sharpest of men are some- times caught napping and then detected in soine act which they sought to keep from pub- lic view. Itis not that they are indulging ina wrongful act, but that their plans may be frus- trated, that causes them to do their work by secret process. But the best-laid plans for obtaining secrecy are those which geuerally lead to exposure. * * * Very deeply laid were the plans of those who are scheming the next great move, but the secret has lenked out. While in Washing- ton early in the week I was struck by the ar- rival of a number of persons interested in base ball in the West, twootwhom at least could nothave businessin the capital that would represent their interest in tie American As- sociation, to which they belong. They were Chris Von der Ane and Leon de Lisle of the St. Louis Browns. They called on Congressman O'Neill of St. Louis, whois also interested in the Browns, and later Chris Von der Ahe called on President Young of the League. Very naturally I made efforts to discover the why and wherefore of the proceedings and by hard work learned that St. Louis will have the Browns in tlie League next yearif Von derAhe and Lucas can come to terms. Kansas City will be ousted from the League, and a general reconstruction of the Ameri@an Association and National League will take place, the two organizations combining into one of ten clubs. The cities to be represented are New York, Boston, Brook- ivn, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Washington, Chicago, Detroit, Cincinnati and Pittsburg. 2 The cities named are, of course, the best in both associations. They have the strongest teains and the best paying attendance and are desirable for other reasons. There is local rivalry between New York and Brooklyn, New York und Boston, New York and Philadeiphia and between Philadelphia and Washington. The Smoky City will do anything to deteat Cincinnati and the Queen City and Chicago are rivals, while Chicago and Detroit are enemies and St. Louis wishes to whip Chicago above all others. The sectional rivalry would also be strong, and paying crowds would witness all games. There are, of course, many ob- rtacles to be overcome before the object sought can be obtained. The main obstacle is the dropping of clubs now inthe organization, for the result of the Met. s case is still before the base ball mag- nates. Then, again, the question of the price of admission and that of Sunday games must be settled and minor details agreed on. The scheme is elaborate, however, and it is being worked by old heads and cunning ones and may be put through successfully. It origin- ates, I believe, with Al Spalding, who started it as u compromise measure, the Eastern peo- ple wanting an Eastern League, which, of course, would shut Aland his White Stocking nine out of the good gates“ obtainable in Eastern cities. o strengthen his position he is pushing his team to win the championship again. Failing to get it he will do all he can to keep it from New York. As long as that can be done it is argued New York cannot afford to leave the League and enter into an Eastern association. N * 1 a There is also another scheme which may be put in place of the one above referred to, in cuse all does not look well for success. The latter plan is to take inthe St. Louis Browns and another Association team and oust Kansas City. It seems to me that, turn any way you will, a scheme crups out to take in the Browns and oust the Oowboys. I believe thatthat much is settled on. I asked Chris Von der Ahe about it and he said: It is not settled yet, but may be it will be. I don't know anything about it yet. Chris evidently wished to be non-committal, and I think he succeeded. He did not attempt to explain his presence in Washington, but Mike Scanian told me that Chris would like to get into the League and that the League would like to have him. The is no doubt of that, andI think that, come what may, the Browns will be in the League in 1887. Yesterday’s Games. The Metropolitans proved an easy victory for the Browns yesterday, and Lynch, their pitcher, was batted for 21 hits by the cham- pions. The score in runs was: Browns, 15; Metropolitans, 2. The Maroons and the Bostons played a tie game yesterday at Boston, with a score of 8 to . The game was then stopped although the score was still a tile in the ninth inning. The reason given by the Maroons for cal Dg — ckets ame was they had purchased railw for Philadelphia and had to leave at 6 o’clock. Other Games. At Louvisville—Louisvilles, 15; Athietics, 7.

He has caught ten games and has had only four passed balls, Manager Hackett of the Newarks insists that visiting Association and League clubs shall name the umpirein Newark. He says he does so because the New York papers always at- tributed the Newark club's victories to the umpire. Paradoxical, but true, there will be joy in the Elks’ nine whether they win or lose the Illumination Fund — against the Press Gang next Monday. It is none of this senti- mental Joy, but every ver f practical joy, that flies in high glee in a ball game. Fowler, the colored second baseman of the Topeka Club ofthe Western League, is doing some great fielding and batting this season. In forty games he made sixty-four runs; out of 180 times at bat he bas made 79 hits; batting record, .427. In the field he has had 293 chances, accepting all but 17; fielding av- eruge, .942. Fowler is a Keokuk man. The greatest number of games won in suc- cession by — League club this season is 15. by Detroit, and the greatest number lost in sucession is 12, by Washington. Boston has not won nor lost more than 5 straight; Chi- cago, 10 won in succession, 2 lost; Detroit, 15 and 3; Kansas City. 8 and 9, New York, 9 and 4; Philadelphia, 7 and 6, St. Louis, 3 and 10; Washington, 2 and 12.

Starters in the Champion and Omnibus Stakes at Monmouth Park. A New York dispatch says: Interest in rac- ing events inthis section has increased with rapid strides since the opening of the spring neetingjof the American Jockey Club in Jerome Park. During the current week and on to the close of the season it promises to grow in in- tensity. The champion stakes, at one mile and a half, to be run at Monmouth Park next Saturday, the first day ofthe second summer meeting, will bring together the cracks of the yeur and mighty throngs of devotees of the sport and the betting ring. The following horses are probable starters in the race: Dewdrop, Troubadour, Miss Woodford, Volante, Ben Ali, Tyrant, The Bard. Charity, Favor, Eiectric and Ten Booker. If only half of these named to start appear at the post they will make the sensa- tional race of the year. Volante is probably the most dangerous of the Western racers. His easy Victories in the Exceisior Stakes and cup at Saratoga will insure his carrying large bundles of money, and Ben Ali, consid- ering his late fast race, will be intrusted with the fortunes of many admirers of this son of Virgil. 5 New York and Brooklyn delegations will pile a heap of money on Dewdrop. They believe the race will bea gift to the queen of fillies, for the conditions let her in at 100 pounds. She carried 120 lightly as @ bag of feathers through the mud on Saturday, when she won the Puli- sade stakes. The bandlers of Miss Woodford and Trouba- dour laugh when questioned as to the truth of the sensational rumors about their backing down. The great mare is as fit to run to-day as when she romped in winner of the first sweepstakes at Saratoga on the opening day of the meeting. Troubadour simply struck his leg at Chicago, and was let up in his training. He bas indulged in a quiet vacation at Brighton for the last ten days, tak- ing walks on the verge of the beach combers’’ to cooland strengthen his 8 He is better fitted to run now than when he landed the: Suburban.

When he was arrested Police Oflficer Lett, the prosecuting witness M. W.

They couid not be mistaken in the man or his actions, and were determined to make him suffer because he had been in the habit of doing it every morning for some time past. ing of the case Leonhardt At the first call- and his relatives were ‘‘blood raw,’’ as the sport would say, but ex-Goy.

Court, said that his client Johnson, addressing the had been in the habit of taking sponge baths in his room, and that his motions in bathing himself appeared to have been misconstrued by the prosecuting witnesses who lived back ot him on Autumn street. His client had been careless, no doubt, in taking these baths in view of ladies, but it was unintentional on his part. He had ex- plained the matter to the parties interested in the case and had“ offered them an apology. They were satisfied with bis explanation, and were now willing to have the case against Ber- berich dismissed on payment of costs. City Attorney Dyer said that he had received a letter in reference to the mutter, in which the witnesses for the city stated in substance what Gov. Johnson had just remarked con. cerning the explanation of the defendant, and expressed their willingness to have the case dismissed on payment of costs. Judge Cady said he did not care to see the letter. As bot sides wanted the case dismissed on payment of costs, he would order suth disposition to be made ofit. THE LETTER REFERRED TO * by Mr. Dyer is written in a legal hand and the signatures are in different hands. reads as follows: The letter St. Louis, August 3, 1886. Mr. Dyer, City Attorney: DEAR SIR—Mr. Berberich whom I had charged with indecent exposure tells me that if he was seen as stated it was with no intention to insult any one and in fact .that he did not know atthe time that anyone could see him. He admits that it was a piece of care- lessness and thoughtiessness and begs the nardon of all those offended.

TILDEN re- moves a remarkable figure from Ameri- can political life. Though for years he has lived in retiracy and seclusion, a subtle and potent influence has continu- ously gone out from him which made him a more important political character than many an active politician. He was pre- eminently a political sage, and his words of counsel or admonition were always re- ceived with deference and respect by men of all parties. Mr. TILDEN enjoyed through life a guarded self-control both in word and deed. His most positive actions and most important utterances were distinguished with a peculiar dignity and bore evidence of conscientious deliberation. His life was ennobled with the spirit of a serene intellectual contempla- tion that raised him above the noisy arena of practical politics with its repel- lent tumult and demoralizing tendencies. His influence on the politics of his country was indirect, but not the less enduring and effective. The studious seclusion of his declining years could not hedge in the forces of his vigorous mind and his won- derfui personality; and his words and writings continued to be caught up, as having something of the weight and value of oracular deliverances. Mr. TILDEN’S career has left a deep im- press on the thought of his country. His life has taught us that politics is not per se an unworthy and ignoble vocation; that it is possible for a good man to dig- nify and elevate a profession which he finds to be unworthy of his ambition and his gifts. He has so lived that his coun- trymen, without regard to party affilia- tion, can unite in offering a befitting trib- ute to his memory and his work. — — — — TAKE THE HALF LOAP. The House would be justified in firmly refusing its concurrence in the Senate amendments to the surplus resolution if there were any prospect of thus securing the concurrence of theSenate in the adop- tion of the original. But although the original is better than the amended form, the latter is such a concession to the prin- ciple embodied in the former that its de- feat by the House would be a political mistake. Aside from the trade dollar amendment, which is not germane, the only difference between the two forms is that the Senate’s gives a margin of discretion to the Execu- tive which the other does not give. The original forbids the retention of morethan $10,000,000 of surplus in excess of the $100, - 000,000 retained for the redemption of greenbacks, while the amended resolution expressly authorizes the Secretary in his discretion either to use all of the surplus in excess of $100,000,000 in redeeming bonds or to retain a surplus of $120,000,000, and as much more as the President may order him to retain in view of any emergency which, in the President’s opinion, may justify such order. If the amended resolution is defeated by the House, that body will obviously be responsible for the defeat of a resolu- tion admitting that $75,000,000 of the pres- ent surplus of $175,000,000 may be safely used in redeeming bonds, and further declaring in substance that $55,000,000 of it should be so used, and that not more than $120,000,000 should ever be retained except by special order from the Presi- dent, who is therein expressly required to report every such order to Congress with his reasons therefor at the earliest oppor- tunity. Both parties in their platforms stand pledged against the accumulation and re- tention of such an enormous surplus as now cumbers the Treasury. The Demo- crats of the House and a Democratic Ad- ministration have insisted on reducing the surplus by reducing the taxes, but have been prevented by a Republican Senate. Now the Democratic House has tried to have the surplus kept down to $100,000,000 by a resolution which would cause the re- demption of $75,000,000 of bonds and the saving of $2,500,000 of interest to tax-payers every year, and the Ræpublican Senate has simply refused to pass that resolution except in such ashape that its rejection will throw upon the Democratic party the responsibility for retaining the pres- ent surplus in the Treasury. On the other hand, if the House accepts the amended resolution as the best it can get from a Republican Senate, the responsi- bility for locking up more than $100,000, - 000 will be shared between the President and the Republican Senate, while the credit of reducing the surplus to $120,000, - 000 will belong to the representatives of the Democracy in the House. — — —— Ir the Republic of Mexico cannot en- force its authority in the State of Chihua- hua on account of the obstructive meas- ures of the State authorities, then it would seem that said State isin a condition of rebellion against the Mexican Govern- ment. It this turns out to be true, the United States may have to deal independ- ently with Chihuahua for offenses com- mitted by the people or officials of that State against residents of this country.

President CLEVELAND, in response to a Senate resolution, has sent to that body a mass of correspondence between the Secretary of State and the Mexican Government touching the case. The mat- ter submitted contains much that is irrel- evant. For instance, M. MaRESCaL, the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Affairs, in reply to a demand for CUTTING’S release, replied that he had recommended the „Governor of Chihuahua to see that „prompt and full justice be adminis- ‘‘tered.”? This is not a competent re- sponse to the summary demand of the Secretary of State. —— een eel UNDER all the excitement caused by the expulsion of the Princes, the election of members of the Conseiles Generaux has resulted in the return of 847 Republicans and 411 Conservatives, a net gain of only 7 for the latter.

One of the greatest of the evils that afflict the industries of Pennsylvania and those de- pendent upon them is railroad discrimination and monopoly. The Constitutionai Conven- tion recognized this fact, and placed in the instrument it drafted provisions intended to meet and conquer it. The people, by an un- precedented majority, adopted that instru- ment as the fundamental law of the State. It includes a specific demand thatthe Legislat- ure shall inforce the anti-discrimination and monopoly provisions by appropriate legisia- tion. Yet for twelve years that command has been disobeyed, and the late Republican Con- vention deliberately refused to declare that it should be obeyed. The Democratic Conven- tion will make no such mistake. It will go upon record on this subject in the plainest of plain English, and the issue that will. thus be joined between the two parties will constitute, we repeat, the chiefof the dangers to which the Beaver ticket is subjected. If the people were true to themselves it would bury that ticket under a majority as large as was given for the Constitution, of which the presenta- tion of that ticket and the piatform on which it stands is a plain and flagrant defiance. Interstate Commerce. From the Chicago Herald. | There is one very great difference between the House and the Senate bills on this subject. Mr. Reagan’s measure is for regulation that réguiates. Mr. Uullom’s is an esthetic meas- ure not calculated to hurt anybody much. Mr. Reagan’s bristles with penalties. Mr. Cullom’s is mildand pleasant. Both have the short-haul idea, but only that of the Illinois Senator provides for a national com- mission. Infact, under his plan the com- missioners will have the regulation of the raiiroads. It they are favorable to the corporations, as they probably will be, the latter will not be troubled much with the law. The Reagan Dill is long and explicit, ana of- fenses under it are dealt with the same as other misdemeanors in the courts of the United States. Whether the House bill goes too far or not, it is probably true that the Sen- ate bill does not go farenough. The sincerity of the body which passed it has been ques - tioned many times. It has refused for more than ten years even to consider the Reagan bill, which the house has sent to it on several occasions. Honoring a Left Hand Duchess. From a Paris Letter. Not content with striking the Duc d' Au- male s name off the army list and banishing him from the French territory, the Govern. ment has just added insult to injury by deco- rating his mistress, Leonide Leblanc, with the order of ‘‘OMicier de l’ Academie’’ for her lit - erary services. The decoration consists of two silver palm leaves attached to a violet ribbon worn on the left breast and is the same which was conferred on Stanley after his jour- | whole of the edition was seized by the police. Leonide is but an indifferent actress, and her. neipal success on the stage was scored on a — — when she appeared decked with the magnificent and well-known jewels of the late Duchess d’Aumale. The Duc con- stantly used toappear atthe opera and else- where in public with her, and she used amiably to refer to the other Orleans Princes and Princesses as ma famille de la main gauehe."" rue Senate’s Ahsurdity. From the Philadelphia Times. The absurdity of the Senate secret session was illustrated anew the other day, when the galleries had been cleared in order that the Senators might enjoy the proper degree of solitude to enable them to determine whether Mr. Jenks was a proper person to fill the office of Solicitor-General. By some fortuitous cir- cumstance the door-keeper missed a sight- seeing citizen of this great Republic, who ad- vanced to the front seat of one of the galleries and looked down upon the assembled mighty men in an approving sort of way. He nearly frightened the stickiers for Senatorial exclu- sion to death when they discovered him. A dozen of the Senators immediately engaged in a gesticulatory pantomime that was ludierous- ly suggestive of alot of ola women shooing a mischievous hen out of thegarden. The awful sanctity of Senatorial secrecy may be very real and imposing to Senators, but to common.- sense mortals it is about the most ridiculous thing on earth at the present day. Resemblance to Great Men. From the Atlanta Constitution. The resemblance of William M. Lowry to Jefferson Davis has often been noted. Not the Davis of the present day, for age has dimmed his eye, softened his features and mellowed the strength of his earlier years; but the Davis of twenty-five years ago, when, full of hope and determination, he defied the men who crossed his purposes. It is the Mr. Davis whose picture is familiar to the world at large to whom Mr. Lowry bears resemblance. W. A. Powell is the Abraham Lincoln of Atlanta. During his recent incumbency of the tax collector’s office, where he was prom- inently brought before the people, his re- markable likeness to the War President was often noticed. One day an Illinois gentlemen who happened to be visiting the city saw the familiar figure and followed it for several blocks. On returning to the Kimball House he said: ‘‘I feel that Ihave seen the ghost of Abraham Lincoln.’’ The Preponderance of Evidence. From the Globe-Democrat. Delegate Pishon was yesterday acquitted on the charge of drunkenness in office, for which the last Grand-jury indicted him. The State had one witness who saw Mr. Pishon drunk; the defense had twenty witnesses who did not see Mr. Pishon drunk. There was a man tried some years ago for stealing a pig. One witness swore point blank that he saw the detendant carry the animal off under his arm. This made matters look bad for the defendant until his attorney went to a neighboring saloon and brought in adozen men, each and every one of whom swure that he did not see the defend- ant steal a pig. ‘‘In this case,’’ said the Judge, ‘‘there is a preponderance of evidence in favor of the defendant, and he will be dis- charged.’’ THE METROPOLITAN PRESS. What the Editors of the New York Journals Are Saying This Morning. By Telegraph to the PosT-DISPATCH. New York, August 4.— The WORLD says to- day: ‘‘Itis unfortunate for the United States that a man of sucha disreputable character as Cutting appears to possess should be the oc- casion of what may now seriously be consid- ered an imbroglio with Mexico. But there is a principle at stake, and there can be no dis- tinction of persons in such matters.

There is no demand and no occasion for any new Democracy.’’ TRR TIMES. The Times says: Mexican out against our citizens Are numerous and irritating. Their laws and customs give their ofticiais = power over the property, liberty and ives, both of Mexican aud of American resi- dents in Mexico. At the same time it must be rather discouraging to the State Department whenever it tries to pitch on any one specific outrage to find it starting with a wrong on the American part, as in the case of Cutting and Rasures. Of course, however, the punishment of Mondragon and his men must be demanded and it can be insisted on with absolute assur- ance of success, since the Mexican authorities themselves will hardly like to trust the execu- tion of their laws to men convicted of using them for private veageance.’’ THE TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: ‘‘The session must have convinced many Democrats that their arty is not yet fit for the responsibilities of government. Putting aside all other reasons, it is a fatal ob- jection that the party is not of one mind on vital questions. It is split into factions which war with each other so passionately and un- ceasingly thatthe country can get nothing done, If itis claimed the factions are com- posed of sincere and patriotic men, all anxious to do their duty, so much the worse.

To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: Will you please state in which sections of the country the Prohibitionists want to ex- clude the negroes from primary elections?’’ In making 80 serious a charge would it be any more than fair to give authority instead of basing it on ‘‘it is reported?’’ JUSTICE. [This desire on the part of Prohibitionists has been manifested at Columbus, Artesia and in Hinds County, Mississippi; in Richmond, Va., and in various other towns and neighbor- hoods where there is a considerable negro population.

One occasion was during the gas controversy tuet winter when he made himself 80 Obnoxious that even the conservative and long-suffering morning papers were forced to refer to his condition, at least in ambiguous terms.

HE CHASED HER. William Robinson’s Queer Method of Show- ing His Affection. William Robinson and Maggie Moore, both colored, were before Judge Cady this morning on counter-charges of disturbing the peace. On the night of August 1 Maggie and William got into a row and William, who became wild with rage, drew arevolverand knife on her, and said he would cut her heart out. Without waiting to give him an opportunity to cut out the aforesaid portion of her anatomy the wom- an took to her heeis with Robinson, knife and revolver in hand, in hot pursuit. He ran ber through an alley between Sixth and Seventh streets to Spruce street, and ap Spruce street to Seventh, where the woman ran into a drug store for protection. There a police officer stopped Robinson, but the latter made au at- tempt to cut him before he was subdued. In court this morning he was rather insolent, and Judge Oady tined him $100 and disvbarged the woman. She pleaded guilty to a charge of keeping adisreputable house that had also been preferred against her, but was let off in iton the payment of a $10 fine. —— TWO FIGHTS. Quarreling Citizens Fined in the Secend District Court. Most of the time of the Second District Police Court was taken up this morning listen ing to the details of the tight which took place between Collie Keys and William Dickson, two gentlemen of ebony hue, in an alley near Claggett avenue, in West St. Louts. Dickson was conversing and skylarking with a girl, Emma Washington by name, in the alley when Keys appeared on the scene and threat- ened to kill him if he did not let his girl alone. The testimony here is conflicting. Keys claimed that Dickson drew a knife on bim and assaulted him, and in order to protect himself he procured an ax and struck Dickson. Some witnesses stated that he struck him with the sharp edge of the ax on the head, while others claim the ax was thrown and the handle hit him. Certain it is, there is a large cut on Dickson's head, which will remind him of the ht for some time to come. Keys was fined and Dickson $5 and costs. Officers Joyce and Gorman arrested John Ward and his wile, for indulging in a free fight in an alley in the neighborhood of the Third District Poilce Station. The man was fined $10 and the woman was discharged. A SERIOUS CHARGE. John Johnson Accused of Maltreating ® Young Girl, Last night Officers Maloney and Bartlett of Capt.

Incompetency of the Democrats to Adminis- ter Government Affairs, the Principle Point to Be Made by the Republicans— Alleged Incapacity of the. House—Re- duction of Tariff and Internal Revenue Taxation—Cleveland’s Administration—A Clean Western Republican for Presi- dent. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPATcH. Wasainuron, D. C., August 4.—Mr. Ed - munds has the reputation of being one ot the most unapproachable of public men. He ts very rarely quoted in any newspaper and when he is it is generally through the medium of some third person. He does most of his talking inthe Senate where, during the last gession, he has been one ofthe most conspicu- ous figures in the debates. Ifound him yes- yrday afternoon in the wide, beautifully lighted parlor of his new house. Its interior jg a model of simplicity and good taste. The Senator sat upon the linen covered sofa, dressed in a dark blue flannel suit and Ghatted as easily and gracefully upen current topics as if he were a new member of Congress. I asked Mr. Edmunds what he thought would be the issues in the coming campaign. He said: I think that the prin- cipal point to be made by the Republicans is the inecompetency of the Democrats to adimin- ister the affairs of the Government. The House has done nothing of general im- portance. The Senate has sent over to it important legislation and the House has simply refused to consider it. Its timidity and lack of grasp were conspicuous features of its record. Tue House is subject to special criticism tor ite failure to reduce tariff and intornai revenue taxation. These taxes, when they were laid, were proper and necessary. The times are changed. These taxes are now, to a considerable extent, a necdiess burden constantly piling up 4 sur- plus which is a continued temptation to EXTRAVAGANT AND WASTEFUL. LEGISLATION. The House has shown its business incapacity in this by failing to deviseand carry through some wise plan for tax reduction. Then the House, only in the last hour, took up the inter-State commerce subject, sent to it by the Senate, and by its passing the Reagan bill practically said nothing should be done. Not but what 1 sympathize with Mr. Reagan and the objocts of his bill; Ibelleve in restraining these cor porations as far as can be under the constitu- tion, but l think the Cullom bill was a better measure and.one in the end best calculated to secure the objects desired by Mr. Reagan. The passage of the two bills is equivalent to the defeat of the proposition to establish Goveri- ment supervision of inter-State commerce. It has been said in behalf of the Democratic Administration that the party had been out of power for twenty-five years and its leaders bad lost all knowledge in conducting public business, and wouid therefore make mistakes until they could have time to acquire experience. 1 do not think that this is a good defense. The President of the United States was formerly Governor of a great State. Ile took as three of his principal advisers veteran public mo. who certuinly cannot be excused ior any mistakes on ac- count of inexperience. The principal criti- cism that I should pass upon this Administra- tion, and the one that will be made by the Re- publicans in the canvass,is the very poor class of men selected to fill the Federal ofiices. There are in all communities plenty of good Democrats. All that is required is a certain knowledge of men anda little common sense in iwaking its selection. lsaid atthe outset of Mr. Cleveland’s admin- istration that I had no doubt he intended to do exactly right and to make the best — appvintments, but that the party would prove TOO STRONG FOR HIM, and the pressure would be too great. I think that this remark, which 1 did not make at that time for publication, and which reached pub- lic print through a third person, has been borne out by facts.’’ é And yet it is said that the President has hada smaller percentage of nominations re- jected than uny previous President.’’ ‘*This might be true and yet disprove noth- ing which 1 have said concerning those ap- pointments. The Democrats vote solidly for their appointments as a general thing and ignore everything shown in the way of unfit- ness of character, shrugging their shoulders with indifference at all kinds of charges. ‘ Vat their votes are not enough to con- rm? True, but there are certain Republicans who believe in the spoiis idea and think that the President has the right to make higown selections and they are willing to confirm, leaving the responsibility with the appointing power. Inall of my twenty years’ experience in the Senate, there has not been such a large number of bad appointments before the den- ate fur contirination as during the past year.’’ ‘*That isa 1 statement. ou will und it is borue out by the facts. At least I speak for the two committees of which lam a member, and | think the records of other committees will sustain my state- ment. Do you think that the Republicans will cary the next House?’’ I doubt it; lam not certain that it would be au advantage for us to carry it. The re- sponsibility for originating legislation there now is with the Democrats, and if it were to be controlled by Republicans under a Demo- cratic President, it would not be a satisfactory — of things tor us irom a party stand - n ae FUTURE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. Mat do yoa think of the future of the Re publican party?“ ‘*] think it has a good future?“ Do you think it will be a harmonious party in 1588 and that you wiil have a good chance for electing a Republican President then?“ It depends who is nominated. If the Re- publicans go to the West and select some good, clean, upright man, with an honest record upon financial questions, a mau who is above reproach, tie Chances for the Repub- licans electing their candidate will be, I should say, seven oat of ten.’’ The Senator wenton to say,as he stroked his beard thoughtfully: ‘‘The Democrats have acertain advantage in the Presidential cam- paign which cannot be overlooked. They have a solid South, obtained, as we Kepublicaus oé- lieve, by intimidation and gross frauds. There are few outrages of violence now, yet we be- lieve it certain thatthe baliot of the South is not tree, and that will be one of the comin issues upon which the Republican party will make its fight—a free bullot and an honest count. The Democratic party, as the situa- tion now stands, can command in any emer- kene) and inthe light of any circumstances the entire vote of the solid South. All that is vor beyond that is to carry New The Senator was asked what he thought of the President's exercise of the veto Sowers The Senator replied: I am a pretty sincere believer in the vitality of the constitutional division of the powers of this Government. It is a distinct provision of the Constitution that the President shall approve and sign all bills passed by Congress before they shall become — oe nee gnention his right to disap- rove, veto meuns nothi ess than that—a disapproval.’’ * = 8 ah gt * BILLS. What do youthbink of his ve * sion Ale : toes of the pen “i ee are fair sabjects for criticism. The President has — & great many — cases than those he bas disapproved. In the very nature of things he could not personally exainine many, if any of these cases. To be consistent he either should have refused to should be made to cover all grantin of pen: f sions, and that where the law was de ve it should have been amended. This is the actual state of affairs. Most ot the people interested inthese pension cases had previously made application under the general law to the Com- missioner of Vensions, and upon his rejection of their claims they appealed to Congress. Then when 8 proved of their claims they were sent to the — and he has in turn sought the opinion of power which just rejected the same ms. he could not know an claims; he had to rely upon the In other words the very court wh an adverse decision in the to review, as a court oi — very well.

I have never seen the President except ina social way, and have not had any special . portunit tor 3 an opinion as to his zeneral knawiedge of public questions, or of his ability asa statesman. I have to judge his acts, andin my criticism of those acts I have indirectly siven you my opinion of him. THE FOREIGN APPOINTMENTS, The Senator then went on tospeak of the foreign appointments of the State Department. He said that notwithstanding Mr. Bayard’s at experience as a public man, he seemed most unfortunate in his appointments. There has probably been no range of appointments under cye of the Department which have afforded such targets for legitimate criticism as the appointinents of Mr. Bayard. He was ask what he thought about Mr. Garland. ie replied: ‘‘I have previously given my opinion of him in the open Senute, and some of my critics have com - mented severely upon that opinion. [| think Garland is an honest man, but 1 do think that he made a mistake. His mistake was accept- ing an interest in a speculative enterprise when he was a Senator.

When the case of Ben Kimball, one of the insurance agents indicted by the Grand-jury for violating the insurance law, was called in the Court of Criminai Correction yesterday Col. C. P. Ellerbe, attorney for the Insurance Department, stated that tne only object of the Insurance Superintendent in instituting the prosecutions wastoenforce the law and col- lect the revenue due from insurance com- panies. There was no desire to have any man ined or imprisoned and, if Mr. Kimball would make the same promfse as Mr. Biossom to vivlate the law no more the case against him would be notle prosequied with permission of the Court. Mr. Bond, attorney for Mr. Kimball, who is anon-Board agent, said his client was not acting for insurance companies, but in the in- terest of the insured. He did not see that he had violated any law, and wauld not promise to give up the business in which he was en- gaged until the Court bad heid that it was il- legal. Mr. Kimball had never wilfully vio- lated any law, and would promise not to yio- “ hat the President. He was asked if he 2 a Nene ns ot | W. Gre the late the law as he understood it, but was not prepared to accept the construction placed on the statutes by the Insurance Department until the courts held that it was a proper one. At Mr. Bond's request the case was continued until September2. Me, Kimball says he wiil test the validity of the law thoroughly. STABBED IN THE DARK. J. G. Fletcher, an Actor, Fatally Wounded by His Wife. CuicaGco, August 4.—J.G. Fletcher, an actor, 32 years of age, is at the County Hospital sut- fering from a knife-thrust in his left side, which the doctors say will result fatally. Fletcher tottered up to an officer near the cor- ner of State and Harrison streets, last night, and placing a long, keen-biaded knife in his hands, said he had been stabbed. He was taken to the County Hospital, where the phy- sicians found a deep cuta quarter of an inch long in his left side, below the ribs, and thought the indications were that the liver has been penetrated. Fletcher at first refused to tell who assaulted him, but finaily said it was his wife. He said he wentto their rooms, which were dark, and, as he stepped in the door, the woman stabbed him. rs. Fletcher wes arrested at midnight and locked up at the Armory. She does not deny that she stabbed her husband: but claims that she did it in selt- defense, being drivento desperation by the cruelty of Fletcher. SHOT A MELON THIEF.

ARTICLES OF AGREEMENT IN THE BEACH- GAUDAUR RACE DRAWN UP.- — 1 Gaudaurand His Trainer Sail To- Morrow The Big Turf Events at New York—Some Interesting Information on Base Ball Matters—Sporting News and Base Rall Gossip. E. B. Rankin ot Boston, the intermediary through whom Mr. J. A. St,. John has arranged the match race with William Beach, tele- graphed this morning as follows: J. A. St. John, St. Louis, Mo.“ Match with Beach guaranteed. Have re- ceived cable message saying send over Gau- daur, articles and money. Mail articles to me at once.’’ When a reporter for the Post-DISPpaTCH called on Mr. St. John this morning that gen- tleman was busy at work thinking up the ar- ticles of agreement under which the St. Louis man will row the champion of the world. The main point of difference between these articles of agreement and those which are made out for American races lies in the difference of the course adopted by the two countries; the American, asa general rule, using a course with aturn andthe English a straight course. The course on the Thames, it will be remem- bered, isa straight, measuring four and one- half miles in length. ’ The terms will again vary in the stipulation that the race shall be rowed according to the provision of the code governing London Boat Ciub races, and these differ in a few unim- portant points from the American code. The latter rules were published in the Post-Di- PATCH a few months ago. Mr. St. John willgomplete the work of draw- ing up the articles to-day and probably send them to Rankin by . h mail. Hamm and Gaudaur will leave for England on the Cunard line to-morrow. They have concluded to depart earlier than at first antic- ipated so as to have whatever advantage can be gained by a itamiliarity with the English championship course. — — —— THE BIG SMASH. Mysterious Meetings of Base Ball Manag- ers at Washington, D. C. The New York WoRLD has the following in reference to the coming breakup in base ball: Thatthere will be many radical changes in base ball next season is now admitted by those who are best informed, and there are many schemes in process of hatching. The great in- terest in tho League peunant race has enabled the schemers to go along quietly and avoid any publicity, but the sharpest of men are some- times caught napping and then detected in some act which they sought to keep from pub- lic view. It is not that they are indulging in a wrongful act, but that their plans may be frus- trated, that causes them todo their work by secret process. But the best-laid plans for obtaining secrecy are those which geuerally lead to exposure. * — Very deeply laid were the plans of those who are scheming the next great move, but the secret has leuked out. While in Washing- ton early in the week I was struck by the ar- rival of a number of persons interested in base ball in the West, two ofwhom at least could not have businessin the capital that would represent their interest in the American As- sociation, to which they belong. They were Chris Von der Ane and Leon de Lisle of the St. Louis Browns. They called on Congressman O Neill 01 St. Louis, whois also interested in the Browns, later Chris Von der Ahe called on President Young of the League. Very naturally I made efforts to discover the why and wherefore of the proceedings and by hard work learned that St. Louis will have the Brownsin the League next yearif Von der Ahe and Lucas can come to terms. Kansas City will be ousted from the League, and a general reconstruction of the American Association and National Leacue will take place, the two organizations combining into one of ten clubs. The cities to be represented are New York, Boston, Brook- ivn, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Washington, hicago, Detroit, Cincinnati and Pittsburg. 23 * The cities named are, of course, the best in both associations. They have the strongest teums and the best paying attendance and are desirable for other reasons. There is local rivalry between New York and Brooklyn, New York und Boston, New York and Philadeiphia and between Philadelphia and Washington. The Smoky City will do anything to deteat Cincinnati and the Queen City and Chicago are rivals, while Chicago and Detroitare enemies and St. Louis wishes to whip Chicago above all others. Thesectional rivairy would also be strong, and paying crowds would witness all games. There are, of course, many ob- rtacles to be overcome before the object sought can be obtained. The main obstacle is the dropping of clubs now inthe organization, for the result of the Met. s case is still before the base ball mag nates. Then, again, the question of the price of admission and that of Sunday games must be settled and minor detalis agreed on. The scheme is elaborate, however, and it is being worked by old heads and cunning ones and may be putthrough successfully. It origin. ates, I believe, with Al Spalding, who started it as «compromise measure, the Eastern peo- ple wanting an Eastern League, which, of course, would shut Aland his White Stocking nine out of the good gates obtainable in Eastern cities. ‘o strengthen his position he is pushing his team to win the championship again. Failing to get it he will do all he can to keep it from New York. As long as that can be done it is argued New York cannot afford to leave the League and enter into an Eastern association. + „ 5 There is also another scheme which may be put in place of the one above referred to, in cuse all does not look wellfor success. The latter plan is to take in the st. Louis Browns and another Association team and oust Kansas City. It seems to me that, turn any way you will, a scheme crups out to take in the Browns and oust the Cowboys. I believe that that much is settled on. I asked Chris Von der Ahe about it and he said: It is not settled yet, but may be it will be. Idon’t know anything about it yet. Chris evidently wished to be non-committal, and Ithink he succeeded. He did not attempt to explain his presence in Washington, but Mike Scanian told me that Chris would like to get into the League and that the League would like to have him. The is no doubt of that, andI think that, come — may, the Browns will be in the League in 1 > Yesterday’s Games. The Metropolitans proved an easy victory for the Browns yesterday, and Lynch, their pitcher, was batted for 21 hits by the cham- pions. The score in runs was: Browns, 15; Metropolitans, 2. The Maroons and the Bostons played a tie game yesterday at Boston, with a score of 8 to . The game was then stopped although the score was still a tie inthe ninth inning. The reason given by the Maroons for calfing the ame was they had purchased we tickets r Philadelphia and had to leave at 6 o’clock. Other Games. At Lovisville—Louisvilles, 15; Athietics, 7.

He has caught ten games and has had only four passed balls. Manager Hackett of the Newarks insists that visiting Association and League clubs shall name the umpire in Newark. lle says he does so becuuse the New York papers always at tributed the Newark club's victories to the umpire, Paradoxical, but true, there will be joy in the Elks’ nine whether they win or lose the Illumination Fund — against the Press Gang next Monday. It is none of this senti- mental joy, but every of practical joy, that flies in high glee in a ball game. Fowler, the colored second baseman of the Topeka Club of the Western League, is doing some great flelding and batting this season. In forty games be made sixty-four runs; out of 180 times at bat he bas made 79 hits; batting record, .427. In the fleld he has had 203 chances, accepting all but 17; flelding av- erage, .942. Fowler is a Keokuk man. The greutest number of games won in suc- cession by any League club this season is 15. by Detroit, and the greatest number lost in sucession is 12, by Washington. Boston has not won nor lost more than 5 straight; Chi- cago, 10 won in succession, 2 lost; Detroit, 15 and 3; Kansas City.8and 9; New York, 9 and 4; Philadelphia, 7and6; St. Louis, 3 and 10; Washington, 2 and 12. The Elks are putting in four hours a day racticing for the Illumination Game at Union "ark next Monday. The newspaper Gang quietly sinile as they think of their as they expect to enjoy chasing these Elkes. W. D. Wetherell was out esterday watching the Elks practice at Union Park. As Chalmer Cotman made a base hit to the pitcher, which rolled to centre fleld, he fairly few round the bases. ‘‘Why does he remind one of Mike Kelly?“ said the great Elk. ‘‘Why?’’ asked a friend. ‘*Because he's so different.“ — — SOME GREAT RACERS. | niected the California | Starters in the Champion and Omnibus Stakes at Monmouth Park. A New York dispatch says: Interest in rac- ing events inthis section has increased with rapid strides since the opening of the spring meetingjof the American Jockey Club in Jerome Park. During the current week and on to the close of the season it promises to grow in in- tensity. The champion stakes, at one mile and a half, to be run at Monmouth Park next Saturday, the first day of the second summer meeting, will bring together the cracks of the year and mighty throngs of devotees of the sportand the betting ring. The following horses are probable starters in the race: Dewdrop, Troubadour, Miss Woodford, Volante, Ben Ali, Tyrant, The Bard. Charity, Favor, Electric and Ten Booker. If only haif of these named to start appear at the post they will make the sensa- tional race of the year. Volante is probably the most dangerous of the Western racers. His easy victories in the Excelsior Stakes and cup at Saratoga will insure his carrying large bundies of money, and n Ali, consid- ering his late fast race, will be intrusted with thefortunes of many admirers of this son of Virgil. New York and Brooklyn delegations will pile abeap of money on Dewdrop. They believe the race will bea gift to the queen of fillies, for the conditions let her in at 100 pounds. she carried 120 lightly as @ bag of feathers through the mud on Saturday, when she won the Puali- sade stakes. The bandlers of Miss Woodford and Trouba- dour laugh when questioned as to the truth of the sensational rumors about their backing down. The great mare is as fit to run to-day as when she romped in winner of the first sweepstakes at Saratoga on the opening day of the meeting. Troubadour simply struck his leg at Chicago, and was let up in his training. He bas indulged in a quiet vacation at Brighton for the last ten days, tak- ing walks on the verge of the beach coinbers’’ to cooland strengthen his legs. He is better fitted to run now than when he landed the: Suburban. The result of the champion race, whatever it may be, will doubtiess lead to exciting matches in the near future, and add zest to the rich Omnibus stakes, with $10,000 added money, also a mile and a half, to be run op the Thurs- day following the Champion stakes. The race is for 3-year-olds. Dewdrop, Charity, The Bard, Silver Cloud, Eolian, Quito, Rock and Rye and 154 other royally- bred colts and fillies are nominated for the race. Chicago Races.

Sporting Notes. Rankin of Boston has received a cable from W. J. Innes of London to the effect that the Gaudaur- each race is guaranteed aud that it will take place on September 18. Paddy Ryan will be biy matched to fight with an unknown ler $1,008. ‘*Parson,’ Davies is Ryan's backer. HIS SKULL FRACTUBED. Probably Fatal Result of a Blow from 4 Rock. Yesterday afternoon James Sullivan, a boy U years oid, while playing about in Clemens’ grove, near Nineteenth and Madison streets, was struck on the side of the bead a little above the eye by James Dwyer, a 18-year-old boy residing on Twentieth and Howard streets. Sullivan was carried to his home, 1520 North Eighteenth street, atonce, and an examina- tion of the wound disclosed the fact that the skull had been fractared. The child is in a woe Gere oe life is despaired of. The boy, Dwyer, was arrested by Jammings, va and is now ‘has ne breath and read — — — —— — — — AN ECCENTRIC BATHER. 8 „ MR. BERBERICH’S ALLEGED INSULTS CARE- LESS ACTIONS AT THE HYDRANT. So the Prosecuting Witnesses are Convinced— The Case Against the Franklin Bank Book-Keeper Dismissed — Statements of the Parties. The case of John C. Berberich, the book keeper of the Franklin Bank, charged with an indecent exposure, hada very flat ending in the First District Police Court this morning. It is too hot to guess, We will give it all away. We mean, the number of Home-Comfore Ranges we have absolutely made and sold since the 20th day of Novem- ber, 1881, the date of our first patent.

Leonhardt, his wife, Henry Rabold, a relative of Leonhardt’s | wife, and several other witnesses claimed to have caught Berberich in his room at 925 Lark avenue, making indecent exposures at Mrs. Leonhardt and other women living on Autumn street,the rear o® whose houses face the rear of Berberich’s house. They couid not be mistaken in the manor his actions, and were determined to make him suffer because he had been in the habit of doing it every morning for some time past. At the first call- ing of the case Leonhardt and his relatives were ‘‘blood raw,’’ as the sport would say, but ex-Goy. Johnson, the bank clerk's attor- ney, had the matter laid over until this morn- ing. WHEN THE CASE WAS CALLED to-day, ex-Gov. Johnson, addressing the Court, said that his client had been in the habit of taking sponge baths in his room, and that his motions in bathing himself appeared to have been misconstrued by the prosecuting witnesses who lived back ot him on Autumn street. His client liad been careless, no doubt, in taking these baths in view of ladies, but it was unintentional on his part. He had ex- plained the matter to the parties interested in the case and had“ offered them an apology. They were satistied with bis explanation, and were now wiliing to have the case against Ber- berich dismissed on payment of costs. City Attorney Dyer said that he had received a letter in reference to the matter, in which the witnesses for the city stated in substance what Gov. Johnson ha ust remarked con cerning the explanation of the defendant, and expressed their willingness to have the case dismissed on paymentof costs. Judge Cady said he did not care to see the letter. As bot sides wanted the case dismissed on payment of costs, he would order suth disposition to be made of it. THE LETTER REFERRED TO ‘ by Mr. Dyer is written ina legal hand and the signatures are in different hands. The letter reads as follows: St. Louis, August 3, 1886, Mr. Dyer, City Attorney: Dran Srtr—Mr. Berberich whom I had charged with indecent exposure tells me that if he was seen as stated it was with no intention to insult any one and in fact that he did not know atthe time that anyone could see him. He admits that it was a piece of care- lessness and thoughtlessness and begs the pardon of all those offended. Asheis a man of family and bears a good reputation and has evidentiy suffered a great deal, myself and others interested would most respectfully ask you to dismiss the case on paymentof costs, or make such disposition as you may think consistent with the possibility of his having no evil intention when seen as he was just before arrest. 1 am respectfully yours, M. N. LEONHARDT. Witnesses to signature, Henry Kabold and Jacob Kuaiser. The City Attorney and police are much put out over the action of the Leonhbardts and Rabolds, but say that it is almost invariably the ease where a man of means isa defendant and people tn comparatively poor circum- stances the prosecuting witnesses.

John Sweeny who did the shooting is an Irishman, unmarried and 34 years old. All his life he has been a steam boatman.

Mr. Sewell said the secretary of War had informed him that the president would come to the Capitol to-day- This explodes the absurd stories printed a month ago, that the President would not hurry legislation for the adjournment. senator Conger, on behalf of the friends of the river and harbor bill, reminded the Sen- ate that delay of adjournment threatened to take away enough Senators to leave the Senate withoutaquorum. He said, if necessary, he would eptertain the Senate with his own elo- quence ten or twelve hours to delay the ad- journment. Mr. Cockrell suggested that Con- ger give the Senate a song. Mr. Allison, ap- palled by this threat, withdrew the adjourn- ment resolution for the time being. California’s New Senator. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON. D. C., August 4 —Congress- man Morrow of California gives a very flatter- ing account of the new Senator from that State, elected yesterday. „Mr. Williams was first actively identified with politicsin Cali- fornia in 182, when he was elected Treasurer of the Republican State Central Commilitee,’’ said Mr. Morrow to your correspondent last evening. In 1883 he was elected Chairman of the Committee to succeed me. Mr. Williams has never held office before, I believe. He has deen spoken of as a possible candidate for Governor at the next election. He has always been rather averse toaccepting sg, Wren: of prominence, partly, i believe, cause his wife is an invalid. In his management of the State campaigns he bas shown great executive ability. There are a great many different in- tereststo deal with in California, as I well know, and there are hundreds of people who, atthe opening of a campaign. Know exact! how it should be carried on. To satisfy all these is no easy task. Mr. Williams isa man with sound business sense, with alogical mind and a cool dead. He is gres- sive, but affable. In public speaking he is impressive. Whén he speaks in the Senate, he will be listened to with more interest, I will guarantee, than, most of the speakers there. Mr. Williams is not identified in any way with the railroad interests of the state. He is actively engaged in trade, and his interests are especially antagonistic to those of railroads. In appearance Mr. Williams is rather below the medium height and stout. He wears a full beard. His hair inclines to be blonde; his face is quiet, but pleasant in expression. Mr. Williams was originally from Maine and he is quite a friend of Mr. Blaine’s. Ue spent a portion of the present summer in Maine, and part of thut time he was in consuitation with Mr. Blaine. Idonot know whether he has gone West or not. Altogether, I think the selection is as good as could have been made. Hoar’s Innocence. By Telecraph to the PosT-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—In executive session yesterday there Was a good deal of man out of the House of Representatives served it. The Representative inquiry, that Congress can consult its own _ against Hon. J. Floyd King of Louisiana ona debt of $250, The bailiff went to the Capitol with the summons and calling the Congress- came ve an at the service, tore the summons an — to have tne bailiff ejected from the Capitol. Hawkins Confirmed. WASHINGTON, D. O., August 4.—The nom- ination of Edward Hawkins to be United States Marshal for Indiana has been con- firmed. “ The case was reported to the Senate without recommendation last Monday, and is said to be the only case that has occurred thig session in whieh the nomination was reported without prejudice after examination and taking testi- mony. Question of Adjournment. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—The Presi-’ dent telegraphed Senator Beck, in reply toan convenienee with regard to time of adjourn- ment, but that he preferred not to come to the Capitol if the necessity could be avoided. Senator Allison thinks an adjournment will take place at Il o’ciock to-night. The President’s Vacation. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—The Pres- ident will not leave Washington for his sum- mer vacation until week after next. He will go directto the Adirondacks and will be ac- companied by Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Folsom and one or two intimate friends. Confirmation of Gates and Dawson. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—The Senate sent to the President to-day the announcement of the confirmation of Elijah Gates, Marshal for the Western District of Missouri, and Lafayette Dawson, Judge for Alaska. Signed by the President. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—The Presi- dent to-day approved the bill for the relief of the Christian Brothers’ College. Secretary Manning’s Condition. New Yor«, August 4.—Mr. Brennan, Secre- tary Manning’s private secretary, arrived in town last night. after spending a week at Watch Hill. ‘‘Mr. Manning is very much bet- ter, indeed,’’ Mr. Brennar said; ‘‘in fact he is almost entirely recovered.’’ WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—Mr. Sewell, from the Committee on the Library, reported a joint resolution accepting from William H. Vanderbilt and Julia Dent Grant objects of value and art presented by various foreign Governments to the late Ulysses 8. Grant. They are ac- cepted ‘‘with grateiul acknowledgment,’’ and are to be held by the United States and preserved and protected in the National Mu- seum for the use and inspection ofthe people of the United States. Passed. The Senate amendments to the certification appropriation bill were nonconctrred in, and Messrs. Forney, Randall and Butterworth were appointed conferees. Mr. Morrison of Illinois called upon the con- ference report of the surplus joint resolution. | Mr. Morrison thought that the resolution, as u passed the House, had been a wise and con- servative measure to public interest. The resolution as agreed upon by the Committee | on Conference, was, it seemed to him, not so } good a measure, yet, in the present condition | of the Treasury and the bonded debt, it would accomplish all that would have been done un- der the resolution as it passed the House. 4 TO SALUON-HKEEPERS. sport at the expense of Senator Hoar. One of the charges against United States Marshal Freeman, who was rejected, was that he had been engaged in wheat specuiations, | got caught for several thousand dollars and then lay down on his brokers, refusing to pay his losses because it was a gambling debt an unlawful. Mr. Hoar was defending Freeman and trying to secure his confirmation. He drew a pathetic picture of Freeman leaving his home in Tennessee and going ali the way to Louis, where some rascaily brokers got hold of him and persuaded him to purchase a hundred thousana bushels of wheat, with the promise of making his fortune. Such tempta- tion lay in the way of every man. Mr. Hoar said he had himseif seen the advertisements of brokers who promised the return of $1,000upon | the investment of $2.50 and a great many peo- | ple anxious to become suddenly rich were swindied by them. — geri had gone to wa ’ | * 11. —ͤ—ũ—ũ— —26ö2 St. Louis and there caught in this alluring snare, lost ali his | money and gave his notes at sixty days for the balance due his brokers. When the notes became due he refused to pay them, because the brokers had never offered to deliver the wheat. Freeman, he said, never had a grain of wheat in his pos- session, and could not be expected to pay the | notes until the property was delivered to him He was justified in refusing to pay for what he | had not received, and the proper thing for his brokers to have done was to deliver the wheat, so that Mr. Freeman could | have sold it elsewhere before demand- ing the money. The Senators looked at Mr. Hoar with astonishment. The circumstances had been recited over and over again of Freeman’s margins and shorts and longs, but the terms appeared not to be understood by him. Whenit dawned upon his hearers that the Senator from Massa- chusetts was so innocent that he did not understand a deal in futures, the Senate broke out into a roar of laughter, and Piumb, who buys and sells several hundred thousand bushels a day, nearly fell off his chair. Mrs. Cleveland’s Photograph. By Telegraph to the Posr-DisrAarcu. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—An absurd story is going the rounds, originating in a lo- cal paper, and afterward printed as a special dispatch’’ in a St. Louis journal, to the effect that Mrs. Cleveland had ruined a local pho- tographer by refusing him permission to sell her pictures after be had made expensive prepuarations to put them on the market. The statementisthe product of a depraved and fertile imagination. The Presidentand Mrs. Cleveland have given their free consent to have a number of these pictures put on sale. Your correspondent has seen them as pre- pared for sale. They are artistic productions and good likenesses of the original. They will ptobably go on sale this month. The Naval Bill Signed.

Mr. Haeussler on the Trail of the Receiver —Judge Lubke Still at Work on the Wind-Up—A Protest Against Both Re- ceiver and Committee from an Interested Party. Judge Lubke, shortly before noon to-day, took up the affairs of the Provident Bank and the hearing in respect of the Washington University account was resumed. Judge Adams, for the receiver,stated that in August, 1864, the Museum of Fine Arts, a department of the University, was anxious to secure a collection of works of art by subscription and liste were opened for that purpose by a committee of about six gentle- men interested in artmatters. Thedefaulting Cashier Thomson and Mr. Gariand, the Presi- dent of the Provident Bank, inter- ested themselves in the matter and authorized Prof. Ives and Mr. J. G. Chapman to draw to the extent of $3,000 when they visited Europe for the purpose of selecting works of art for the Museum. In August, 1884, a draft for $2,000 was drawn on Garland and Thomson individually, and it was honored at the bank. Subsequently when Prof. Ives returned to St. Louis another draft for 51.00 was drawn on Garland and Thomson individually and it was honored at the bank. The drafts were carried in the cash- box of the bank as cash items. In due course the collection of art works so purchased by subscription was turned over to the N by Prof. Ives and Mr. Chapman. The attorney for the receiver could not see that any obligation rested witb the University toward the bank in respect of the drafts, and the only obligation appeared to be on the part of Gariand and Thomson, for the drafts were drawn upon them individaally. E. C. Eliot for Washington University said that Judge Adams statement was correct so far as he knew. Mr. Adkins, receiving teller of the Provident Bank, was called. The first draft was drawn in London, and Mr. Garland directed bim to pay itand hold the draft. That wasin August, | 1884. On the 13th of February, 1685, Prof. Ives came to the bank and the second draft was drawn upon A. B. Thom- son and J. 8. Garland individually. He paid the amount by the direction of Messers. Garland and Thomson. The sum of $130 nad been paid on account of the draft. There * subscoiption list which Mr. Thomson eid. Judge Adams stated that the subscription list referred to had been placed in his hands. It showed an aggregate sum of 51.800, representing various amounts which reeponsibie citizens had promised to payin yeariy installments for en- riching the fine art collection. It was pro- posed now to collect these sums in behalf of the receiver, andthe list would be withheid tor that purpose. Prof. Ives took the stand and said that Gar- land and Thomson were both members of a self-constituted committee for the purpose of collecting funds to secure objects of artin England, France and Germany. Thomsonand Garland reed to get a sum not less than $3,000, but business engrossed them and they did not complete their work. Thomson told him, however, that he was authorized to draw upon Garland and himself for the sum he needed in Europe, and he did do so. He understood that he was drawing aguinst the sums that would be collected for the art department but that the drafts were | against Garland and Thomson individually and not againstthe bank and that he, the Profes- aor, was not responsible. Thomson told him that wusso. Twoorthree months ago Thomson Called him into his office and said that some arrangement must scon be made to meet half the amount of the drafts. He said that he had advanced the money to pay the drafts. The Professor told bim thatif he would make a statement to thet effect he would present the matter to the other members of the committee. Thomson, however, refused to do this and said that it would not be business-like and so forth. Sub- eequentiy the Professor received a letter from Mr. Swain concerning the drafte and Mr. Swain wanted an arrangement for payment. Messrs. John T. Davis, J. G. Chapman, the late Jno. R. Shepley and other gentiemen were subscridvers Also, a leaders in AMMERING PRICES DOWN earing Sale has taken * 2 1 storm.

The Protegsor had been en- trusted with fully that amount to make pur- chases in Europe. The University bad no au- thority to contract debis. The Court said that the drafte from the above showing couid not be charged up against the University account. The only recourse tnat the receiver would have would be against Garland and Thomson. They were directly liable to the bank for the payment of the drafts. The University should be allowed to pay into the hands of the receiver the sum of 4,300, should receive credit for the amount of its depart- ment deposit accounts, and the receiver would be ordered to deliver up to the University its two notes aggregating $10,500. Judge Adams stated that Prof. Ives would assist the receiver in making collections on Thomson's subscription list. REFUSES TO REFUND. H. A. Haeussier, who appears to be following oP the receiver witha sharp-pronged fork, filed the following petition in court this morn- ing in the Provident Bank case: The petition of H. A. Haeussler respectfully | shows that on July 2. 1886, and thereaiter until the date of failure of the Provident Bank it had ample funds in the Chicago National Bank here- at Chicago to meet the draft inafter described: That on July 2, 1386, the Provident Bank made its d subsequently indorsed to and is now held by the petitioner: that said Chicago National Bank, before said draft had been presented to it, remitted to the receiver ali sums to the credit of the Provident Bank, being largely in excess of all drafts that had been drawn on it by the said Provident Bank, and said receiver now reiuses to refund and pay to claimant the amount of said draft out of the money 1 received by bim from said Chieago National Bank, when he knew said sum had been appropriated for paymentof said draft. Tie petitioner prays that the receiver be ordered to pay back said sum of $45. H. X. USSLER. The petition of G. H. Judge Lubke this afternoon. was the Pint indorser ofanote for the Hansom Cab Company, and be asked the amount of the note be 222 against his deposit account in the vident Bank and that the receiver surrender the note to him. That course was takeh. ae 3 DISATISFIED DEPOSITORS AND STOCK ’ The settiement or wrecking of the Provident Savings Bank is at a standstill.

This amount is divided up between receiver's fees, receiver’s attorney fees, costs of Court and costs in outside attachment suits and final dis- position of the real estate assets of the bank. Speaking of Mr. Hermann A. Haeussier's propositions for the settlement of the bank affairs a representative of involved interests, neither friendly to Mr. Thompson's party nor r. Haeussler, said: The small stockhold- ers and the depositors find themselves in that untortunate medial position described as between the devil and the deep, deep sea.’ Ihave no confidence in Mr. Haeussier or his propositions and nonein Mr. Thompson. We now have no one to look to but Judge Lubke, and 1 don’t hesitate in saying that his ac- tion is not making him an friends among the depositors and the small stockholders. Receiver Thompson makes a showing of $1,167,701.62 in assets. Mr. Haeuss- ler, who seems bent on depreciating these assets, places the total at $893,565.56. This estimate is, 1 think, purposely put 0 lou. His first proposition was one of the most preposterous I ever heard. In effectit was this. He wanted to administer the estate without bond by furnish- ing $200,000 to go on provided the deposits were not drawn within a certain time. Ithink that it tuis scheme had been carried out you would find that Mr. Haeussler’s paper, and that of his friends would ma- ture just about twenty-four hours before the depositors would be permitted to draw their accounts. Both Mr. Thompson and Mr. Haeussler have given out wrong impressions as to the time necessary for winding up the business of the bank. Mr. Tmompson does not even pretend to say what the first dividend wili be. He says he is conducting the bank for Judge Lubke, and is only taking action on his orders. Then Judge Lubke is responsible for the costly delay and the failure to declare an early dividend. The best of the assets can be realized on at once, if there was any inclination to settle the bank business up. Both Mr. Thompson and Mr. Haeussier are making conceal- ments for somebody’s protection. No- body wants them to give out the location of the exchange maturing accounts and thereby precip tate a lot of attachment suits,which would hurt everybody but the attaching creditors, but we do want a statement of the business. Mr. Haeussler simply did whata dozen of Third street brokers would have given $2,500 for an opportu- nity to have done. He raised a littie rumpus, gota view of the books—better than he could have got simply as an individual stockholder—and now he proposes to go into u business speculation.
