THE DEFEAT OF THE REPUBLICANS IN TUESDAY’S ELECTIONS, - Congressman Mills Declares the Result Due to the Growth of the Doctrine of Tariff Reform—The Next Fight to Be on the Lines of 1888—Chauncey M. Depew AI- ludes to Personal Grudges, By Telegrar? to the Post-DisPatou. WASHINGTON, D. O., Nov. 8.—Oongressman Minis is not disposed to agree with his Repub- lican friends that the result of yesterday’s elections was due to local causes. Upon that point Mr. Mills and the Republican press dit- fer widely: in Ohio and Iowa, said Mr. Mills last night, ‘‘the Republican defeat was due to the connection of the party with the Prohibi- tionists us well as dissatisfaction with their course upon the tariff. In New Jersey the Democrats made the fight on the tariff and won handsomely upon it, as they did last year. Our success in New York, as well as the splendid showing we made in Massa- chusetts, is, in my judgment, due to our position on that question. The truth ie, Mr. Mille continued, the doctrine of tariff reform is steadily growing. We are losing none of our strength while the accessions to our ranks continues daily. Some ofourfriends censure President Cleve- land for making the tariff the issue in the late campaign. It was a bold, courageous act. We needed such anissue. The times were ripe for it. It is better to suffer defeat while battling for an honest principlethan secure success without it. Our future fights will be de ion the lines ot the ‘88 campaigns. 1 don't know whom we shall nominste— three years isa long way ahead. It maybe Cleveland it may be Campbell of Ohio or Boles of Iowa, but whoever it be, he will stand squarely with his party upon a tariff reform platform.’’ What evidence have we that the sentiment in favor of tariff reform is spreading?“ asked the correspondent. »The best evidence is that out in Missouri, where there hes been no election this year, the people have been calling ubon their Sen- ators and Representatives in Congress to take the stump and enlighten them upon the tariff question, lam told thatinmany cases they have traveled from five to twenty-five miles to be present on an occasion. Another vi- dence is the demand which reaches me from all over the oountry for tariff literature. There is not a day that my mail does not contain let- ters asking for copies of my speech or some- body else’s or copies of the bill forsome data bearing on the subject. These letters come to me from Kansas, Iowa, llinocis, New York’ and New England.“ ‘Is it the werchante or the farmers who thus addre „1 have eans of knowing, but of one thing I am in. The work Dg peo ple— those who arb employed in the protected in- dustries—are With us. It was to these people that we addressed ourselves last year. I found them 2 an intelligent, think - ing class. Whérever they understood the sub- ject—and all they seed Was an 9 ＋·ͤͤ1 ity — we made votes. That was notably the case in New Jersey and Connecticut. The farmers, the very class we expected to have with us, were against us. T class whose interests were most closely allied to us were against us. We shail not neglect them again, as we'did before, and result will seen in the strength we shall gain from that quarter. ‘*You speak of next year. W hat do you ex- pect to accompiab next year?’’ ‘*We shall carry the next House beyond a doubt. We shall make gains in the South, in the West and in New England. The people are just beginning to understand our position. They see that we have the right 1 of the argument, and they will be wit A Chat With Mr. Depew. By Telegraph to the Posr-Disr ren. AUBURN, N. T., Nov. 8.—Chauncey M. De- pew, Cornelius Vanderbilt and other officials of the New York Central Railroad passed through this city in a special train at 10:15 yesterday morning. The train madea brief stop at the station and the Posr- Drsraron correspondent asked Mr. Depew his views on the election. He said: I was not as much surprised at the result in Ohio as some. I * t several Gays trav- eling through the State while inspect- ing the Vanderbilt lines, and Isaw that there was a disposition to check Gov. Foraker’s presidential ambitions.

GILMOUR’S CASE. The Charges Filed at the Vatican Against the Bishep. By Telegravh to the POsSt-DIsraTcn. New Tonk, Nov. 8.—The Womo to-day publishes the following correspondence from Rome under date of October %: Notwith- standing the deniais given in Americato the reportof an investigation to be held in the effairs of the Catholic Churoh in the diocese of Cleveland, O., of which Dr. Gilmour is the Bishop, I have it confirmed on the dest authority that the schedule of such investiga- tion was fixed in the Propaganda as far back as August last and that Cardinal Gibbons Archbishop Riordan of San Francisco and Archbishop Elder ot Oincinnati are to be the commissioners to prosecute the investigation. Furtber, I can also affirm that Father Prendergast is to be one of Bishop Gilmour“ accusers—in fact, has al- ready sent bis report to the Fropananan where it has been received, C and filed, and that abuse of power, or assu of powers not confe by the Pope thro the Propaganda, is the accusation to brought against the Bishop. Whenaquestioned the Vatican authorities declined to — the report, but referred me to the Propaganda, declaring that the Department of State bad no knowledge of it. I may add here that the Arehbbishop of New Tork ig not wixed up in the affair and has nothing to do with it; also that the reports of Bishop Gilmour being special! 1 7 speak at the inauguration of the 3 — University is tncorrect. If he should be ent and should speak it will be throug courtesy of the r, Mgr. Keane, who com- mands the epecial favor and affection of the Pope. Itmay not be generally known that some time ago when His Holiness ed r. Keane a Bishopric he declined it, preterr to de the rector of the Catholic Un ersity o Washington. Bishop Gilmour’s enemies are not only those prelates in Rome who openly profess themselves against him and against one or two other American Bishops, but his foes are to be found also in his own househoid, and the storm may barst upon him witb reater violence than be is aware of. The Pope was not altogether pleased with the Bishop of Rochester’s affair with Father Lambert, and now with this case of Bishop Gtimour coming on the heels of it, strong measures will be resorted to, espec ecial- ly as there is a vague idea here that in one or two other dioceses of the United States things are not altogether as they ought to be.

Toa 1 reporter Mr. Buckley said: We have a great deal of money at interest in this city and are continu- ally receiving applications for further loans, This does not mean that St. Louis is going into debt heavily, as such is far from bein the case, as I never saw a 1 wit stronger debt-paying . procilivities. peo- le must be very prosperous, as few — the oans are renewed, « let the 3 are applying for acc erect new houses, or ‘bey ie land, few — on old buildings.
