The uppermost thought Jn the minds of the delegates as thsy began te reassemble en Wednesday evening was tbe supreme Importance el the action taken In the after noon In adopting the report et the commit tee en rule?, which Includes a rule that no change el votes can be made, alter the vote of a state has been properly cast, until after the ballet shall have hern announeod. This vlttually esteps any stampcde, and adds very decidedly te tbodcllberativo character el the convention proceedings. It Is regardeJ an a very deolded vlotery for tbe Inlluences whleb are opposed te tbe pregramme of theso managers who claim te be IrlendsefMr. Maine. Colonel Themas Bayne, et Pennsylvania, who was chairman el tbe committee en rulesnnd who has al ways been a sincere Illalne man, said alter the convention had adjourned that tbe ao ae ao tlen of tbe convention In allowing this pro pre vision te be Incorporated In the rules was one of the wisest and most important actions taken se far.

There was an ovldent and strongly ex pressed Inclination en the part of the del egatea this morning te get te an Informal ballet at least before night and there was geed reasen for It. Tbe fact Is that tbe sit uation Is as urn Mi Involved In doubt tn ever. .Sherman still leads with the Held against him, Harrison Is a trills strenger, Allisen bus about held his own, while Uresham and Alger nre weaker than they have been at any time bIuce Monday, Out side of tbe New Yerk delegation there Is new little or no Depew talk. The general Impression U that the balloting will he prolonged and that tbere will be something In the nature of a deadlock. At least that was the view expressed this morning by se astute an observer as Senater Hear who, as be mopped his brew, confes&od that he did net see much chauee of getting away befere Saturday. The prophetic ttleuds am at their work again and the latest forecast el the llrst bal bal eot which Is fatbercd by the 7'rtlnitie gives tbe following : Hbermnn, 2T.0 ; Gresham, 108; Alger G; Harrison 71; Allisen 01; Maine 39; Depew M; Phelps 103; Husk 32; Ingalls 13; Hendersen 32; Fltler 13; with 01 scattering. Vigorous etlerts are being made this morning te lufuse new life Inte the Uresham boom. A call has been Issued by Provident Powers, of the National Seamen's I nlen, fei a parude te night for all labor erganlza tlens and laboring men who favor tbe nemi nation of Urusbam, tbe latter being described as the man that the wsge earners et America mostlmplleltly trusted. Kverv man turning out will be expected te carry a tin pall and tbe domcnbtratlen will be practically tbe Inauguration el adlnnerpall campaign. At 10:05 a. in.

The Itepublieana et the United States as sembled by tbelr delegates In national convention pauBO en the threshold of their proceedings te honor the memory et tbelr first great leader, tbe Immettil obamplen el liberty ana of rights ei the people, Abra ham Lincoln ; aud te cover also with wreath b el Imperishable remembranes and gratitude tbe herole names of enr later leaders wl e have mere recently been called away from our oeunclls Grant, air flow, Arthur, Legan and Cenkllng. Mty tbeir memories be faithfully cherished. We also recall with great greetings and with prayer for his recovery tbe name el one et our living heroes whose natne will be cberlshed in tbe blsteiy, both of Re publicans and of the republic, the name of that nonte soldier and favorite child of victory, Pnllip U. Sheridan. In tbe spirit of theso great leaders and of our own de votion te human liberty and political hostilities te all forms et despotism, we send fraternal oengratulatlona te our fellow Americans of Hraill upon the Bocempllshment of the abolition of slavery throughout the Amenean conti nent. We earnestly hope that we may seen congratulate our fellow eitlzena of Irish birth upon tbe peaceful recovery of nomeruie ler ireiann. we resiurm our unswerving devotion tn the national con stitution and te tbe indissoluble union of tbe statee; te the autonomy reserved te the state; te tbe states under tbe consti tution; te tbe personal rights and liberties of cltlzsus In all tbe states and territories in tbe Union, and especially te tbe supreme and sovereign right of every lawful eltlzan, rich or peer, natlvoer for eign, white or black, te cast a free ballet In all public elections and te have that ballet duly counted. We held that tbe free and honest popular ballet and the J ust and equal representation of all et tbe people Is tbe foundation of our Hepnbllcan govern ment, and demand cllectlve legislation te secure tbe Integrity and purity of olcctlens which are the fountains of all pttbllj authority. We charge that the present ad ministration and tbe Democratic majority In Congress ewe their cxistonce te tbe sup pression of the ballet by a criminal nullifi cation of the constitutions and laws of the United Slates. TAiurr nm-ensi dkneunckd. We are uncompromisingly In favor of the American system of protection ; we pretest against Its destruction as proposed by the presldeut and his party. They serve tbe lnterests of Europe ; we will support the interests of America. We accept tbe issue and cnnlidently appeal te the people rer tbelr judgment. Tbe protectlve system must be maintained. Its abandonment has always been follewod by grave disasters te all Interests except these et the userer and aberlll. We denounce the Mills bill as destructive te tbe general business, tbe labor and the farmlnx Interests of tbe coun try and we heartily endorse tbe consistent and patriotic action of the Republican rep resentatives In Cengress in opposing Its passage. We condemn the preposition el tbe Democratic party te place wool en the free list and we Insist that the duties there on shall be adjusted and maintained se jw tnfurnUh full and adoqnate protection te that Industry. The Republican party would client all needed roductlen of the national revenue by repealing tbe taxes upon tobacco, whleh are an anneyance and burden te agriculture, and tbe tax upon spirits UBed lu tbe arts and for mechanical purposes ; and by such revision of tbetarlft laws as will tend te check Imports of such artloles as are produced ny our people, tne production et wbicb Rive employment te enr labor and release from Impert duties these articles of forelgn produc tion (except luxuries) tbe like of which cannot be produced at home. If there still rerualn a Urger revenue than Is requisite we favor the entlre repeal et Internal rov rev enne taxes rather than tbe surrender of any part of our protective system at the joint behest el the whlsty trusts and tbe agents of foreign manufacturers. We doclare our hostility te tbe Introduction Inte this country of forelgn contract labor and of Chinese labor, alien te enr civilization end our constitution ; and we demand the rigid enforcement of the ex isting laws against It and favor such Im mediate legislation as will exelude such labor from our shores. We declare our opposition te all combi nations et capital organbed In trusts or otberwlse, te entrul arbitrarily tbe condition et trade among our cltt cltt cltt zoes ; and we roceaimeud te Con gress aud the state legislature In tbelr respective jurisdictions such legislation hh will preveut tbe execu tion of all schemes te oppress the iieonle bv undue cbarsei en their supplies, or by unjust rates for tbe transportation of tbelr products te market. We appreve the legislation by Congress le prevent nllke un just burdens and unfair discriminations between the states. We reBttirm tbe pollev et appropriating tbe public lands of tbe United Statea te be homestoads for Amerlcan eltlzecB and set tlers net allens which tbe Republican party established In lbC2 against the nor sib tout opposition of the Democrats In Congress, and whleh has brought our great Western domain Inte such magnlllceut development The restoration et unearned railroad land grants te the public domain for tbe use el ac tual settlers which was begun under tbe ad ministration of President Arthur should be continued. We deny that the Demoerallo ptry has ever restored one acre te tbe people, but declare that by tbe Joint aotlen et Republicans and Democrats In Congress about tllty millions et acres nf unearned land grants originally granted for tbe con struction of railroads have been restored te nublle domain In pursuance of the cendi tien Inserted by tbe Republican patty In tbe original grants. CIIAROINO OTIIF.K UEMOCnATIOINACTION. We charge the Domecratlo administra tion with failure te exeaute the laws secur ing te the settlers tltle te their homesteads, and with using appropriations made for tbat purpese te barms Innecent settlers with spies and prosecutions under tbe false pretense of ex posing lrauds and vin dicating tbe law. Tbe government by Congress of the ter rlterle Is based upon necessity only te tbe end that they may become states in tbe Union ; therefore whenever tbe conditions of population, material resources, public In telligence and morality are such as te In sure a stable, local government tbereln, tbe people of such territories should be per mitted as a right inherent in them te form rer itiomseiveH constitutions and statn gov ernments and be admitted Inte tbe Union. Pending the preparation for statehood all eflicers thereof should be selected from tbe bona fide residents and citizens et the terri tory whereln they are te serve. Seuth Dakota should et rlubt be Immediately ad mitted as a state In the Union under the constltntien trained aud adopted by her people and we heartily endorse the action et the Republican Senate In twlee pawing bills for her admission. The refusal et tbe Democratle Heuse of Representatives for partisan purpcweH te favorably oenaldor theee bills Is a wilful violation et the sacred Amerlcan principle et local self government and merits tbe condemnation of all Just men. The pend ing bills In tbe Benate te enable tbe poeplo et Washington, North Dakota and Mentana tnrritnriea te form constitutions and estab- llin. state government, ineuia be passed New Yerk, W. 1. Caiadaj; without unnecessary delay. The Repub lican party pledgea Itself te de ell In Its power te facilitate the admission or the territories of New Mexico, Wyoming, Idaho and Arizona te tbe enjoyment of cell government as states snob et them as ere new qualified aa seen es possible end the ethers m seen aa tbey become be. The political power of the Mermen church In the territories aa exercised in tbe past Is a menace te free Institutions, tee dangerous longer te be su Mered. Therefore we pledge the Republican party te appro priate legislation, asserting tbe sovereignty of the nation In ell territories where the Rime la questioned, and In fur therance of that end te place upon the statute books, legislation stringent enough te dlvoree the political from the eoolealastl eeolealastl eoelealastl oal power; and thus stamp out the attend ant wickedness of polygamy. The Republican party Is In favor of the use of both geld and silver as money and condemns tbe polley of the Domecratlo ad ministration In Its ell arte te demon tt:e silver. We demand the rodnctien of letter age te one cent per ounce. In a republic tike ours, where tbe citizen la the sovereign and tbe efllclal the servant, where no power Is exercised exeept by the will or tbe people It la Important that the sovereign the people eheuld poasess In telligence. The free school la the promoter of tbat intelligence which la te preserve us a free nation ; therefore, the elate or nation or both combined should support froe Institutions of learning sufficient te afford te every child growing up in the land the opneituulty of a geed common soheoledu catien, Itr.dAltnlNfl TUB NAVY, We earnestly recommend that prompt action be taken by Congress In the enact ment cf snch legislation as will beat secure the rehabilitation of our Amorlean merchant marlne, and we pretost agalnBt the pasaage by Congress of a free Bhlp bill as calculated te work Injustice te labor by lessening the wages of these engaged In preparing materials as well aa these directly employed in our ship yardp. We demand appropriations for the early rebuilding or our navy; rer tbe construc tion of coast fortifications and modern erdnance and otber approved medern means or detense ter the protection of our dofencoless harbors and cities; for the payment et just pensions te our aeldler; rer necessary works of na tional Importance In tbe Improvement of harbors andjtbecbaunolset Internal coast wise and forelgn commerce; for the encour agement of the shipping interests of tbe Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific states, as well en rer tbe royment of the maturing publ e debt This polley will give employment te our labor, activity te our various Industries, Increase tbe secnrlty et our country, pro mote trade, open new and dlroet markets for our products and cbeapen the cost of transportation. We affirm this te be far better for our country than tbe Democratic polley of lean ing tbe government's money wltbent In terest te " pet bank?." Tbe conduct of foreign affairs by tbe present administration baa been distin guished by Its Inefficiency and Its coward ice. Having withdrawn from tbe Senate all pending treatlea effected by Republican administrations for the removal et for elgn burdens and restrictions upon ear commerce and for Its extension into better markets it has neither effeoled nor proposed any otheiB In tbelr stead. Professing ad herence te tbe Menree doctrine it has seeu with idle complacency the extension of foreign in 11 uenne In Central Amorlea and of foreign trade everywhere among our neighbors, ithas refused tocharter,sanetion or encourage any American organization for constructing the Nlcaragusn canal, a work of vital lm portance te the maintenance of tbe Menree doetrlno and of our national lnlluence in Central and Seuth America ; and necessary for the development of trade with our Pacllle territory, with Seuth America and with the Ulands and further coasts of tbe Paollle ocean. e? thc risiruRY thkaty. We arraign tbe present DemocraUe ad ministration for Its weak and unpatriotic settlement of the Usberles question and Its pusillanimous Kurronder of the csientlal prlvllege tn which our fiablng vessels are entitled In Canadian perta under the treaty or 1818, the reciprocal inarltlme legislation el 1830 and tbe oeinlty of nations and which Canadian llehtng voxsels recelve In tbe ports of tbe Unlted States. We coudemn the polley of the present administration and the Domecratlo major ity in Congress toward our fisheries as un friendly nud conspicuously unpatrlotle and as tending te destroy a valuable natural In dustry and Indlspenslble reseurce of de fense against a forelgn enemy. The name of Amerlean applies allkete all citlzens et tbe republic and Imposes upon all alike the same obligation of obo ebo obe dlenco te tbe laws. At tbe saine time tbat oltUenshlp is and must be the panoply and Baluguard of him who wearu It and proteol mm, wnoiner nign or low, ricn or peer, in all bis civil rights, it should and must afford him protection at bome and fellow. and protect mm aoreau," in wnatever iana be may be en a lawful errand. Tbe men who abandened the Republican party In 1881 and continued te adbore te the Domecratlo party have deserted net only the cause of honest government of Bound finance, of freedom and purity et the ballet, but especially have doserted the cause of reform In tbe civil service. We will net fall te keep our pledges because tbey have net broken theirs or because their candidate has broken bis. We there fore repeal our declaration of 1SS4 te wit : The reform et the civil sorvlce aunpl aunpl aunpl oleusly begun under the Republican administration should be oempletod by the further extension of tbe reform system already established by law te all tbe grides of civil servlre te which It Is applicable. The spirit and purpese et tbe reform Bbeuld be otwervod In all exe cutive appointments, and all lawsatvarl lawsatvarl auce with tbe ehjtrct et existing reform legislation should be repealed te the end tbat the dangers te free Institutions which lurk In the ewer of official patronage may be wisely and effectively avoided." The gratltudn et the nation te the de fenders or tbe Union cannot be measured by laws. Tbe legislation e! Congress should conform te tbe pledgea made by a loyal poeplo and be be enlarged and extended as te provide against the possibility tbat any man who honorably were the Federal uni form shall becotne an Inmate of an alms house or dependent upon private charity. In the prusence of an overflowing treasury It would be a public scandal te de less for these wliote valorous service preserved the government. We denounce the hostile spirit shown by President C'ltveland in bis numoreua vetoes el measures rer pensluu rellsf and the action of the Domecratlo Houseol Re presentatives In reluslug even a considera tion of general pension legislation. In sup port nf tbe principles fcetewith enun ciated we Invite tbe co-operation cf patrlotle men et all parties and especially et all werklugmen whose prosperity la seriously threatened by tbe froe trade policy of the present administration.

When In 1830 Koseoe Cenkllng vlallcd Indiana te take part In tbe memorable cam paign et tbat year he waa asked en every band " Hew will New Yerk go at the pres idential election ?" Tell me," replied tbe &reat orator, " hew Indiana will go In Ooto Oeto Oote or and tben I can tell you hew New Yerk will go In Noveinber."lnOiHober Indiana's majority of nearly 7,000 for the Republican aindldate for governor Informed the country bow she would go, and In Novem ber New Yerk and the nation oebood ber October volce. lndlaua is no longer nn October state. But as tn 18S0 te November In 1833, she aoems largely te held tbe key et tbe position. Sbe is always rogarded as being a clese state, but when tbe Republican party Is thoroughly eganlzed, when It has dene tbe preliminary work of the canvass well, and when lie spirit I kindled Inte lltme, Indiana seldom falls te elect tbe Republi can candidates. She has never been better organized for a suecessMI Republican contest than new ; the preliminary work has never been mero cemplete and thorough ; and the Repub lican masses seem never te have been mero highly reused and eager for the struggle. Glve Gen eral Henjamln Harrison your commission te lead them, and they will immediately fall Inte line, press forward with enthu siastic confidence te victory. The convention tbat lately met at St. Leuis disappointed tbe Democracy of Indiana by reluslng te place an Indiana candldate ou thelr tlekeU Thore Is a tide in tbe affairs of politics ns well as that of men of which taken at tbe floods leads en te fertune. The present condition of Indiana Is tbe Republican party's opportunity. Why risk Bin p wreck en any shallows when the full and welcom ing sea Invites your sails 7 Then tbe speaker passed en te a review of the llfe and publle sorvleos et his candi date. He thus continued : "Tbe eloquent gentlemau from Illinois hasoemmendod te your favor anotber dis tinguished citizen el Indiana. A atate'a place In civilisatien is denoted by the man ner In which she treats these who have served her faithfully. 1 have always hon ored old blsterla Massaehusette for the man ner In which she cherishes tbefamoel theso who In whatever department of service have relloeted honor upon the common wealth ; hew she calls thn roll with pride ; hew Impatient she becomes when thelr names are unjustly aspersed or disparaged.

There Is no need tbat I should strlve te dwarf ethers In order that General Benjamin Harrison may stand con spicuous.

The werklngmen of Lancaster turned ent In numbers Tuesday night te hear Secretary Lttchtnan, of Uie Knights et Laber, tell them of the necessity of organization. The writer of this with all right-thinking people welcome any discussion that will bring better understanding of the vexed "labcr question." Uowever, he also feels, that a calm, dispassionate attitude en any ques tion will mero certainly clear the way ter reform than appeals te selUshneaa and preju dice. Bocause the writer found in the re marks et Secretary Lttchtnan unworthy metlvea and futlle reined lee, that he makes theso criticisms In all slnoertty and charity. Mr. Lttchmau has dovelopod three reme dies; First, cemplete organization of labor J aocend, temperary ausponsten of Immigrants ; and tblrd, legislative tntor tnter tntor ference In behalf et tbe worker looking toward the securlng et his pay at atated times ; his protection In llfe and limb wblle engaged In work ; abolition et child labor, and kindred restrictions. 1. Organlratten Since capital erganlzua for Its own aggrandlzoment, labor Is also oempollod te organize, te resist the on en on eroacbmonls or tbat capital. That la war, the very oppesllo of pWe. That this organtzitlen Is te be carried en until It Includes all werkers, thus making strikes unnoeossary, simply means tbe subjugation or capital te Its oxtlnetlon. What then, ye woikers who say tbat labor cannot exist without capital, or capital without labor T Are your Interests Idoutleal ? If tbey be, why wage war ? Have you evor heard of the brotherhood of war ? Lees bollevo In It than prate about It, We who net only say but knew that the lntercstaet labor and capital are the same, have a different romedy than war. 2. Susponslen of Immigration. The apeaker told us In glowing language of the vast undeveloped resources et our favored land of the mines unopenod, of the natural highways of oemmerco whose besoms never bere a beat. Thore waa room, he aid, and truly, for unoetintod numbers et our race te dolve, te plow and trade.

It Is a sorry spectacle Indeed tbat labor, the creator or all tbat inlnlstera te man's nocesalty and comfort, beuld be se helpless aa te need the pro tection of man-made laws. It simply shows tbat we have set the social pyramid en Its apex. It means that labor la ruled by tbe pewer of Its own croatlen, new grown larger than Its oreator, The werker of to day suitors under tbe system tbat makes tbe tramp and the millionaire both social oxeroacenccs. If, then, organization Is war, rostrlctlen of immigration absurd nud asking protection ter the oreator from tbe oreature, ahject, what U tbe romedy 7 We aometimea discover where a thing la after we have hunted ever the plaoea where It la net.

A. Huher, the company's agent at Baa bury, Ph., as the thlef. The arrest waa mad In Philadelphia, Hnbcr having been ds oeyed thore se that hla heuse In S anbury could be searched. Tbe search took plaoe en Tuesday even ing, aud the dotectlves recovered some (20,000 In geld and notes hid In variena places about tbe home, the largest amount being found behlnd tbe mantel and la a socret drawer In a Jewel case. The dls dls dls oevory oemplotoly vindicates Kathmal Pratt, the clerk In the company's office in Philadelphia, who was arrested at the time, and makes ene et the most remarkable cases or robbery ever known In the state. On the 10th of August, 1880, tbe Pennsyl vania railroad company delivered te the Adams Express oetnpany at their office, 022 Chestnut street, a package et mosey oentalnlng(2D, COS addressed te the Mineral Mining company or Shamekln aa the monthly psyet that company's employee. The pack age was duly acknowledged and a roeelpt for It was given, but when the aafe roaehod Shamekln tbe money was net In It, aud there was no sign et any tamperlng with the lock or seal. Kathmal Pratt was arrosted, but at terwarda wsa released. Only lately Iho right due was getten by words coming te the ears of tbe detectives tbat P. A, lluber, the Adtma Express agent at S unbury, wm living ex travagantly In comparison with his Income. That the safe would have had te paaa through his cflloe en tbe way te Shamekla strengthened the suspicion against htm and shadewa wero placed en him. Finally en Tuesday he waa summoned te Philadelphia ostensibly en business, and Captain K. J. Linden and D. A, Black la tbe afternoon et the same day presented' thomselvos at his heuse In Hunbury wlta the soareh warrant. Some et thn money was found In the original packages in whleb It was shipped from Philadelphia and waa untouehod. A NAT1VK Ol' LANCASTER. Philip A. lluber, the man under arrest, la well known In Lancaster. He waa bera and raised liore, where many el his rela tives still reside He left Lancaster a num ber of years age and afterwarda kept a hat store In Uarrlsburg. After that aa bcearun an empleye et the Adams Express company and for several yaera had charge or a car between Har rlsbnrg and Ualtlmnre. Fer some tlmt he ran between Yerk and Philadelphia, and passed through Lancaster every day. . it baa been about taree yeara alnee he waa appointed agent et tbe company at Sunbury. Uls salary waa (75, a month. About ten months age he began furnishing bU heuse very extravagantly. He purchased a piano and aent hla daugh ter te fashionable seminary, while hla wife entertained en a grand scale, The stories of Iluber'a sudden wealth caused conslderablo talk, and aa he waa ene of tha men suspected, the Plnkerten people kept a close wateh upon him. It terminated aa above stated. The supposition Is that ene or Iho.elerka in the oitlce In Philadelphia made a anls anls take when he placed the money In the safe en August SO, 18S0, There were four packages, containing (58,000, for the Min eral Mining company, or Shamekln. Three paokages went in a sealed safe and the one containing (29,803 was plaoed In the Iren eheat that went te Sunbury, Huber dltoevorod the money and kept It, know ing that the mistake in the Philadelphia offlce would shield him, as the Shamekla aafe passed through his hands without tha seal belng broken.
