Many Il-'mticrals are of the opinion that tli. county convention should be held ear iVr this year than in the past year or two, and for the purpose of eetunz an expres sion of the party on that question, each committeeman will, prior to the rnertiiiir. inquire of the Democrat of his district, to ascertain their wishes on the subject. Voters having a preference as to the date for the county convention are requested to see their ropect've coin mil teenien so that their opinions may b; heard at the meeting of the committee. II. A. KXtiLEHART. Chairman Cambria County Democratic eommilte. Ebensburif, Pa.. March ISth, !, The lied Lake Iodiaua reservation in Mia'.esota will soon be opened to settle ment. Reitrucass still insist that the Dem ocratic party is "a party of ruin," and to substantiate the assertion, print the names of two or three firms that have lately failed. Dun's reports do not show any increase in failures over the period when Republicans had full power. And Republicans themselves refuse to change the existing tariff law. Col. Stump of the treasury emigra tion bureau, at Washington, says the tide of immigration has again begun to How from Europe to this country in con siderable volume. Immigration slack ed up during the winter months, but the prospects are now that the number of immigrants that will come this spring will eua:, if not exceed, the statistics of the previous year. The American schooner William Todd, from Mobile, Ala., was fired upon by two Spanish gunboats, six miles off the I--le of Pines. Fjur solid shot crossed the schooner's bows after the schooner hoisted the United States col ors. The vessel was boarded and searched by an arm red boat's crew. Nothing of a contraband character re warded the searching party. A c hange in the course of the Mis souri River has resulted in the shifting of the State boundary line between Mis souri and Nebraska, and there is a pros pect of active hostilities between the two states. The peace societies ought to in tervene. It would be awkward to have a second Schomburgk affair at our doors while the first is still pendent some where in the clouds of diplomacy. The novel feat of moving a house from one town to another on a Hatboat was accomplished in Oregon a few days ago. The house was originally built in Wes-t Florence, but the owner decided to move to Acme, three miles up the river, The house was jacked up in the usual way and moved about five hundred yards to the river bank and then down a st ep incline aboird a big scow. The scow was then towed by a tug to Acme and the house safely landed aud hauled to its new location. Hy a late act of congress no pensions will be paid by the rension agencies All will be paid by check sent by mail The law was passed beca .se in the largi cities in which the agencies are located large numbers of pensioners would go in person, and would wait two or three days sometimes for their money, and the entire office force would be com pelled to wait upon them, fill up and execute. Hereafter those in the cities will receive their checks by mail and will have no advantage oyer those liv ing away from the agents. A msiatih from Williamsport Pa on Monday says: The big ice jam in the frusquehanna River at Farrands ville has broken, and the logs are com ing into the boom there on a 14-foot flood. At Lock Haven the surface of the stream was covered with logs from bank to bank. The boom baa been strengthened for packing. It is expect ed that the 2UO,000,000 feet of logs in the woods will all get in on this freshet The sawmills will begin cutting nex week. Three hundred men began on the log drives on Sunday. As esteemed correspondent, 6ays the rew lork Sim, asks us to describe the ited probable effects of the free and unlimi coinage of silver, at the ratio of 10 to 1. it that measure should be adopted by the United States. We are also asked to give details as to who would be bene- hted by it and who would suffer, and all the rest. e are sorry that neither our time nor our imagination will suffice the task. All we can say is that, in event mentioned, the dollar would for the be- come in purchasing power the eoui va lent of the preseut half dollar or there abouts, and the consequences everyone can work out for himself. X. C. Schafker, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, believes that the compulsory school law will disclose the causes which keeps children from school, if it does nothing else. He says: "The day for arguing whether we should have a compulsory act or not ist gone. It is simply a question whether the act as passed by the last legislature shall be enforced. I have no apology to make for endeavoring to carry out the law which it is my sworn duty to enforce. If the law is a bad one, the best way to secure its repeal is to enforce it. If the law is a good one, of course, it should be enforced. If it cannot be enforced, let us find out the reason why. If any of its provisions are inadequate or un wise let it be amended. Perhaps the mere attempt to enforce it will bring to light the causes which now keep child ren out of Bchool." Mr. Harbison, says the HarrUburg Patriot, is reported to have said there is a difference bttween volunteering and being drafted, which means that Mr. Harrison volunteers to put himself in the hinds f his frieodo. It is not at all impossible that Benjamiu wonlil make an available dark horse for the St. Louis convention. He is in every way abler than MiKiuley, who lads the whole field of horses, dark and other wise, but who is weak on the financial question. And yet it would not be right to draft Harrison for service in the White House, filled as it is with sad memories. A man who ha? suffered pain should be spared a wanton reten tion of it. Mr. McKinley is still in the button making business, which enables his friends to buttonhole very many waver ing patriots. Mark Hanna, who is in charge of the McKinley band wagon, says there has beeo no fat frying, but it is notorious that he is conducting a tin campaign. The major knows how to make the most of his opportunities and it is even said that he has made for of fice a protected industry, and collects the tariff on it from his friends who for purely patriotic motives and, more tariff would like to see him in the White House. Reed is still wrapped in impenetrabil ity and disgust He was the hurrah candidate of the Republican party a year aqro. He was the man of the hour, the man to forever stop the breach in Re publican success, and now while he does nothing but fill breeches other fellows stand in the shoes he wore then. He is impenetrable and inscrutable. His im pressive countenanca never betrays to anybody whether he is cussing the other candidates or blowinc up the Republi can party. At last he is helping to low er the party in the opinion of the peo ple. And it could do that without his help. He has lost the hurrah; he will let the rest of the crowd lose the elec tion. Morton is on the high road to suc cess, but unfortunately for him the oth er fellows are using the passes. If St- Louis were an abbatoir it could not be guessed what sort of an animal Levi would be. They are making him sweat blood now and they'll finish him at the convention.' Piatt knows where Mor ton is but Morton knows less of Piatt's position than any other job he ever worked. As for vjuay, there is some dubious ness. There is no tariff to be saved. The accumulation and storing and hoarding of tariff Is precarious anyway. So is Quay's presidential health. He will have delegates but the other fellows will have delegations. He is a great po litical geueral, but a general without an army always occupies a mental and vis ual St. Helena. He might make a di version but he will hardly make the nomination. The nation he will proba b ly get has a different LfginniDg. The recent statement of Lord Salis bury gives the impression that the Brit ish government in the adjustment of the Venezuelan dispute has submitted to our government plans for a permanent arbitration tribunal which will adjudi date all disputes that may arise between the two countries. It is believed that out of this may come not only a settle ment of the Venezuela boundary, but a lasting method of preserving friendly relations between the two powers. The administration has now under consid eration the British proposals. As bear ing on this it is to be stated that a na tional conference is to be held at Wash ington on the 22d of April in the inter est of a permanent system of arbitration between this country and Great Britain Among the signers of the call are the chief justice of the United States su preme court, General Miles, the com mander of the army : Cardinal Gibbons, and many others distinguished in every walk of life. It is proposed that the conference shall contain representatives of every state and territory in the Union, irrespective of party and creed, the com bined membership of the two houses of congress being taken as a general basis of numbers and apportionment. Senator Cha.vdi.er protests with the alarm of an expert against the corrupt ing use of money to promote the Mc Kinley candidacy, says the New York Evening Post. The most appalling thing about it to him is, that the Mc Kinley managers have "invaded Sen ator Quay '8 state," with demands that the Pennsylvania manufacturers give their money, not to their natuaal suzer ain, Quay, but to the man who made hem rich by his Uriff " bill of 1S90 Pointing out the fact that McKinley himself has no money, Chandler wants to know where all the money is coming from that is now "corrupting state and district conventions" in his interest, and asks, with the pain of an old fashioned patriot, whether "our next president is to be controlled and dictated to by Mr. Hanna and a set of associated who have established their domination over a pres ident by the money they have furnished for him and his uses. A canvass of every state and territory on Republican presidential preferences by correspondents of the New York Herald shows,that on the first ballot McKinley will poll more than double the vote of any other candidate and that he will fall on ly 62 votes short of the nomination. As nearly as it is now possible to make a forecast of the situation, the outcome of the St. Louis convention is still un certain, and it is possible that, after all, a struggle will be precipitated which will result in the selection of some candi date whose name does not now appear on the list. The total number of dele gates will be W., and 445 will be re quired to nominate. McKinley will probably go into the convention with 303 votes on the first ballot. Reed will be second in point of strength, with 152 votes, including solid New England, Morton will stand third, with C9, and Allison will have only 38. V ashinetou ltier. Washington, 1). C, March 27. ISV'0. An open confession of the inability of the Republicans to legis-Iate is contained in Senat r Piatt's resolution providing for the Hdjt-Hirnment of rong'-es on Mi 2, and Mr. Pi nt el indies the confession by snyicig of his resolution: "ft is er-fev-tly ciear th:it tn-r.' wid bo i o i-npor taut legislation this SeS-ion except tie 'ipproprnt'.on bills, and I see no reason for remaining here merely for the pur pose of introdU'-int; anil talkinsr upon agitating resolutions, and am ;er-inl'ii that the country would be better satisfied to have us at home than t have us here " If luu isn't humil iating, coming from a p irty which controls both branches of congress and which made t-uch wonderful prom ises of wh it it ws goini; to accomplish in a legislative way when it aijain got control, pray what -vould you call it? The Reed and McKinley Republicans are now at daggers points, so 1 1 sjeak, and they are growing more bitter to wards each other every day. Each ile is charging the other with being guilty of all sorts of disgraeekil tactics. The McKinley men are charged with frying the fat out of the ni tnufacfurers in order to buy delegates, and tlie Reed men are charged wit'i every species of duplicity in connection with the favorite son scheme, the latest being that they orig inated the story of a combine to nomin ate Harrison so as to prevent the India na delegates committing themselves to McKinley. The average Democrat re gard's it merely as another case of "the pot calling the kettle black, and feels likesiiouting "go it Mac'" "go it Tom!" and enjoying the fight all the way through without caring a continental j how it ends. Boutelle, of Me., had another attack of contrariness this week which resulted in a considerable exposure of ears as he stood up and brayed against the purely sentimental bill for the repeal of the law prohibi inn confederal officers who held commissions in the L S. army previous to the war being commissioned again therein. Kverybody admitted that the bill, which unanimously passed the senate Christmas eve, was merely an evidence of cordiality towards the ex- confederates, and that there is not even a probability that any ex-confederate will thereby become an officer in the U S. army, except in the very improbable event of an early foreign war. But Bou- telle would not see it that way. He ranted against it for the greater part of oce session of the house, ami finally cast the only vote that was recorded against the bill in either branch of con gress, liouteue s constituent must be different from other men if thev are not heartily ashamed of him and his antic Although there is little expectation that the bill will be acted upon at this session, even if repor ed, a joint sufieom- mittee composed of three member of the house and three of the Senate Paci fic Railroads Committee has been select ed to see if it is possible for both com mittees to agree upon one bill dealing with the indebtedness of the Pacific railroads to the government It looks like the Cuban business was ended so far as congress is concerned But to many who did not catch the drift when the senate sent the Cuban resolutions back to conference things did not look promising. But they soon saw that the conference had only to agree to the original senate resolutions and the house to do likewise to end the affair. The equestrian statute of Gen. W. S Hancock, which is to Ik? erected in Washington, has arrived and will le in osition inside of two or three weeks The unveiling of the statue is to be made the occasion of a big public celebration military and rivic, under national a us pices. Art critics say the statue will be the best of its kind r the uational capi tal. The date for the formal unveiling has not leen definitely set, but it will le on or about May 1. Gen. Hancock had many enthusiastic admirers and thev will all be glad of an opportunity to nonor his memory. The national advisory board of the A P. A. held a secret meeting here this week, it is said to agree as to which of the Republican candidates for president should receive the supjrort of the organ ization. Gen. Thomas Lincoln Casey, U. S A , retired, who has been iu charge of the construction of the congressional library building since it was tegiin, die-.l very suddenly Wednesday afternoon. (Jen Casey was the engineer in charge of the erection of the state, war and navy de partment building, and of the Washing ton monument. Senator Davis, of Minn., is one of the most disgusted men in congress. Of course he didn't expect t get the presi dential nomination, but tie did hope to get second place on trie ticket, if an eastern man headed it. Now his hopes are dead. m. Charged With Kiiibfzlineiit. Sharaon, Pa , March 3t Mercer county was agitated to-day by the arrest of County Treasurer W. J. Graham for allegal conspiracy and the embezzle ment of $ 10,000 Monging to the county. The information was made at the instan ces of J. Y.Templetoo, one of Graham's bondsmen. The report of the county finances had leen filed by the auditors and the court had accepted it. Graham easily secured $1,000 bail. Some of the county's most prominent citizens went on his bond. On Saturday Graham filed a bond of if 10,0i0 to protect his bonds men. He denies all charges and claims that an impartial audit will make him all right Three Killed bj a Falling Hock. Hinton, W. Va , March 30. Jim and Frank Tillman and Law were in stantly killed by a rock crashing through the house where they were sleep ing at Echo, a station forty miles west of here, yesterday morning. Two other members of the family were seriously injured. The house was situated at the foot of the mountain on the banks of the New River. An enormous ledge of rock broke loose on the mountain side, passing over coke ovecs and tearing up the track of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad and breaking hrough the house. Henry Law, one of the occupants who escaped, had the presence of mind to rush cut and Hag an east bound express train which would have otherwise been wrecked. Workman's Horrible Heath. Eiston, March 23 William Mutton, aged 45 years,;employed at a slatequarry in Pen Argyl, was killed to-day by a heavy block of slate falling on him. He was standing on a ledge below the block, assisting in putting a chain about it to haul it to the top. The block bad been frozen fast to the ground, but the sun's rays melted the ice to-day. destroying the" security of the block position. This was not discover ed, however, until too late. The block gave a lurch and fell on Mutton, crush ing him to death. He was well known iu the slate regions. Ilig': st of all in Leavening Power. Absolutely pure Ierrble 1 ratcetlj ita Oliio. j Akron. O . March SO At a late hour 1 Saturday night a masked man en- I tered the farmhouse of Alvin M Stone, near Talimadge, a few miles from this city, and in the brief spice of half an hour committed a horrible butchery. When he took his departure Stone and his wife, both aged people, were lying dead iu bed, horribly mutilated, and Ira Stillson, the hired man, and Emma Stone, the eldi-st of three daughters, were unconc-ious from blows dealt by the murderer. The murderer entered the houses by means of a ladder, which he raised to au upstairs window. Going quietly downstairs to the room in which Mr. aud Mrs S;one slept he attacked them with a blunt weapon of some sort, hit ting both upon the head, The fiend then cut off oue of Stone's ears, plashed him across the face and stabbed him in the back. Then he laid Mrs Stone's cheek open with a knife. After satisfying his fiendish desires downstairs he proceeded to the room of Stillson upstairs The hired man heard the intruder, apparently, for he had arisen, when he was dealt a stunning blow on the head. Next the murderer turned his attention to Emma Stone, who slept in a room bv herself. When he entered her room she screamed. That awakentd the two other girls who S pt across the hall. HattieStone arose to go ti her sister s assistance, but was felled to the II tor by a blow on the head, but fortunately was not rendered uncon scious Regaining her fett she ran to her own room and locked' the door. Throwing a bed quilt about her she leap ed from the window and ran through the ra n ani mud to the nearest i eigh tHjrs, a quarter of a mile away. The murderer returned to Emma's room and struck her on the head, leav ing her unconscious. Then he tried the door to the room iu which Hattie had left her younger 6ister, Flora, when she jumped from the window. Finding the door locked he battered it down, finding only Flora iu the room. He asked Flo ra where the other girl was, and being told that she had gone for help he hast ily left the house and made his escape. Hattie, with the blood streaming from the wound in her head, managed to reach the neighbor's house, told her sto ry and then fainted. The neighbor, calling for help, wentto the Stone house The only person in the house who was able to speak was Flora Stone, aged Id. and she was so badly frightened that he could tell nothing atout the murder, except that the man who committed it wore a mask over his face. Another Chance tor Pettctires. May's landing, N. J., March 27. What seems to be a brutal murder was brought to light this morning. A man known familiarly as "Spikey" Joues, while goiug through the woods near Hstelvilie, two miles from here, found a tree felled on his path and beneath it the earth was disturbed aud heaied up iu a iecu!iar manner. His curiosity be came excited and he began digging be neath the mound. Alter removing a iew inches he was horrified by bringing to light a naked foot. He breathlessly ran back tothis place and informed Sher iff Johnson. The latter visited the spot and together they exhumed the body of i woman, which was identified as that of Mrs John Rech, who resided in a small house alout 200 feet distant frorn the grave. The body was dressed in night clothes and was wrapped in two old sacks. There was a handkerchief lightly wound about the neck, and.there was every indication that the woman o.td tK-en strangled to death. A hasty examination led Sheriff Johnson to be lieve that she had been buried while yet breathing. Tiie woman's husband ha3 disappeared and it is learned that he left for Phila delphia jesterday with his little daugh ter. Mrs. Rech was last seen alive last Sunday. Any motive for the supposed crime cannot be surmised. An inquest will be held to morrow. lour killed. New York, March 2V Four persons were killed juid two injured early this moruing in a Jire at No. 374 Hudson street The building is a three- 6tory brick house, used for dwelling and store purposes. The two upper Uoors shelter ed four families. The dense smoke de terred some of the inmates from descend ing the stairways. Miss Margaret Ryan, sixty years old, in ascending a ladder to rescue the women, was knocked off by a burrt of llame shooting from a second story wiudow and was badly injured. The women then became hysterical, Miss Ryan leaping from the window. She fell on the 6idewalk breaking her back and died on the way to the hospi tal. Her companion fell out of the window and broke her leg. The fire men could not rescue everyone in the building lecause of the immense quan tity of smoke. After the fire had been extinguished three bodies were found of people who had been stiff ocated. They are Miss Mary McMahon, twenty two years old, a fireman on the steamer St. Louis and Archibald Grogan, thirty live years old. Their bodies were not burned The damage amounted ti $10,000, the building being almost en tirely destroyed. Crushed by tailing Walls. Cleveland. O , March 29.

Never in modem times b.-ui there been a more sickening Fjnft:u-le thsu that which has attended the. public execution of five Cubans in this Hty. The men had been con demned to death as "murderers, vio lators and incendiaries." Tnois were drawn up in a hollow square and in the middle were placed tlie chair and post.

Then the executioner undertook to aPp'y "in screw, but was so excited that his hand slipjied repeatedly, with the result that the victim did by slo-i-straugulation. emitting the while the most, distressing cries. The second exe cution was accomplished with even more distressing awkwardness and de lay, the ex-cutioiier Ix'ing almost on the verge of collajise as he i-rformed his horrible function. The protests of tlie officers and priests forced Ruiz to nn dertake the third excc-ioti. but he I'.id little liottcr than his as-tant had done. The fourth victim of the bungling par roters was likewise tortured, and t he.ti Ruiz literally fled from his st, leav ing his assistants to put to death the fifth of the Cubans, who e-scaped none of the agonizing cxjicrieiices that had attended the execution of his fellows.
