The President feels badly cut up over the rejection of Halstead by the Senate. Mr. Blaine is also hurt. The Republican Senators who voted against the Cincinnati editor will not ask any favors at the "White Home or State Department for awhile, at least It is rumored that the President will renominate Halstead and give the Senate a chance to reverse its action of Saturday. In "Washington the idea that Blaine was to be President is about exploded. Such a rumor, it is said, stiffened General Harrison's backbone and made him declare himself. rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.l "Washington, March 31. The Presi dent and Secretary Blaine feel very much outraged at the action of the Senate in re jecting Mr. Halstead, and the Senators who voted against him will not find the atmos phere of either the "White House or the State Department "healthful for some time yet. A gentleman who was driving for two hours with Mr. Blaine on Saturday said that he talked of nothing else than Mr. Halstead's rejection; that he seemed to feel worse over it than he did over his own de feat for the Presidency. It appears that there were several Re publican Senators ho tidnT vote for Mr. Halstead, but only four Kepublican votes againSt him. For the benefit of the Presi dent and Mr. Blaine the following accurate list of those who opposed the confirmation of the Field Marshal is given: The Opponents of Mr. LTnlstcad. Quay, Evarts, Dawes, Cullom, Teller, PJnmb.jrugallsJpnes pt JJeradafiteart; and Stanford 10 in all. Those who voted against him on Saturday were Quay, Teller, Plumb and Ingalls. Evarts, Dawes and Cullom were psired. Jone, Stewart and Stanford did not vote at all, but would have voted had their assistance been necessary to secure rejection. The Senators say they cannot understand whv the President should show so very much feeling over Mr. Halstead's rejection. Said one: "He has rejected our nominees, and we have just as good a right to reject his. Under the Constitution the Senate shares the appointing power with the Pres ident. "We advise and consent that certain people shall be appointed to office. I have been up to the White House and nominated half a dozen men, and the President has re jected them all. Qnnv Very Anxious Abont Leeds. "I don't see why he should be mad be cause I simply oppose the confirmation of one of his nominees. There is Quay, for example. The President is going to reject his nomination for postmaster at Philadel phia, and I reckon that Quay is a great deal more anxious that Bill Leeds should be postmaster at Philadelphia than the President was that Murat Halstead should be Minister to Berlin. If the President re fuses to advise and consent to the appoint ment of Bill Leeds, I don't see why he should complain if Quay refuses to advise and consent to the appointment of Hal stead." It is believed by some that the President will renominate 'Halstead, and give him an other chance. Mr. Harrison is a very ob Etinate man, and if Mr. Halstead desires it he will send his name to the Senate a sec ond time. Sledill Runs Awnj From Danger. The Washington Fost suggests that Uncle Joe Medill be given a chance to wrestle with the Senate over the Berlin mission, but as soon as he heard of the rejection of his friend Halstead, Mr. Medill took the train for New York. A leading Senator who voted for Hal stead said this afternoon: "The President need not be surprised if he gets into a row with the Senate, and if he does it will be his own fault. He seems to think that he is solely responsible for the good conduct of this Government, and we want a share in the responsibility. I have quit going to the "White House to ask for appointments, and now when a man comes here and asks me to go with him I alwavs beg off and write him a letter that he can take up himself. He Otrm All the Offices Himself. "I have been up twice to ask for appoint ments that I thought my State was entitled to and which any other President would have given me without a word. But Gen eral Harrison acted as'though all the offices belonged to him, and that I was thp; to beg.iborrow'or steal one, and the President appears to be quite as independent of his Cabinet officers 'as he is of the members of the Senate." The reports published so extensively after the election that Mr. Blaine was to be President of the United States were not true. These publications seem to have af fected the President's backbone, and he leaves no excuse for anyone to mistake the situation. There have been a number of other instances beside the nomination of v "Whitelaw Beid for the English mission in which . Mr. Blaine Hns Been Overruled. s It leaks out that he knew nothing of ihe selection of Robert Lincoln for that place until the very morning the nomination was .ASL'U' "" e appointment of the delegates on the part of the tTnited States to' the con ference of American nations is an even more conspicuous example, of Presidential iqde pendence. K was given out at the State Department.oFriday that these nomina tions would notbe made until after the Sen; ate adjourned, and yet there was a telegram from the "W-hite House in the hands of a Senator announcing that they would.be sent to the Senate on Saturday. , ' Although Mr. Blaine claims a patent on the Congress of American Nations, I the President appears to have taken the matter entirely out of his hands, and there are but two names in the entire list of delegates ihat .may "be attributed to Mr. Blaine, namely, those of Carnegie and "William Henry Trescott He Consults With No One. The President consulted with no one, so far as can be learned, in making these selec tions. He certainly did not consult with Mr. Frye, who introduced the bill in the Senate and secured its passage; nor with Mr. McCreary, of Kentucky, who managed the measure in the House. Mr. Frye un derstood from the State Department that Se appointments were not to be made at is session, and Mr. Blaine is reported to have assured certain Senators who had can didates that there was no immediate neces sity to present their names. As one Senator expressed'it, the President has" used this Congress of American Nations as a dumping ground for gentlemen for whom he could no) find foreign missions. YEEY EMPTY HMOBS. Little Prospect In View of Very Muoh for Mr. Carnegie nnd His Fellow Dele gates to Do The Congress of Nations Notldkely to Fan Oat Terr Big. rEFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. 1 "Washington, March 31. When Mr. Blaine was Secretary of State J eight years ago, one of his pet projects was a Congress of American Nations, to be held in Wash ington, a project which was generally re marked on as increasing the points of re semblance between his career and that of Henry Clay. The invitation was sent to the South American States in November. 1881, but the project failed because of the difficulties then existing between Chili and Peru and Mexico and Guatemala. It is a rather curious fact that the act of Congress providing lor -a Congress of American Nations this year was passed last May, before it was known that Mr. Blaine was to be Secretary of Stale; even before the national conventions were held, and so Mr. Blaine finds a continental Congress already 'ordered, but it is no more certain now than it was eight years ago that the Congress will be held. The President appointed the delegates to represent this country, thus providing brief honors for several gentlemen whose friends have nominated them for Cabinet offices and leading missions; but the acceptances from our sister republics come slowly. Only about half the South American States have acceptedrsnd unless all or very nearly" all accept, it will be idle to attempt to hold a congress. Chili is unfriendly to the con gress now as she was eight years ago. Sev eral of the South American States, and notably Chili, are jealous of the growth and power ofthe United States, and resenfrthe idea of being in any sense under the pro tertion of the United States, and thev are f afraid that to participate in a congress in Washington, at the invitation ot wis uov- raojesj, would be a reeogtiluon.v-athe. claims of this Government to the primaey among American nations. The principal promoters of the inter national congress are advocates of steam ship subsidies, and the act of last May pro viding for the calling of the congress was pushed by gentlemen who want Congress to vote subsidies to steamers running to Cen tral and South American ports. Chili is not only unfriendly to the United States on account of the part we took, or are accused of having taken, in the war between Chili and Peru, but the commercial interests of Chili are mainly in English hands, and they are not anxious to have the commerce with the United States extended. HELMBOL D AGAIN HELPLESS. The Sanity of the Notedl Patent Medicine Man Questioned Once More. IBPECIAL TELEORAU TO THE DISPATCH. 1 Netv York, March 31. Dr. Henry T. Helmbold was arrested late on Saturday afterneon by Policeman Kerns, who found him helpless in "West One Hundred and Twenty-eighth street. In the Harlem Po lice Court, to-day, he was sent by Justice "White to Bellevue Hospital for examina as to his sanity. He was examined by Drs. Field, Douglass and Fitch and pronounced able to take care of himself, and his son Elmer L. Helmbold was permitted to take him home. Dr. Helmbold is a rotund little man with a long grav mustache and goatee that gives him the appearance of a Frenchman. He was famous for many years previous to 1871 for the gorgeous way in which he spent the money made from his patent medicine. He has been in about a dozen insane asylums, among them being the Sur-Seine, in Paris, Bloomingdale, Krrkbrlde's, in Philadel phia, and the Norristown Asylum. His re lease from the latter was secured after a long and expensive fight. There was nothing the matter with hint on Saturday but too much to drink. GAKRETT IS AFEAID.

In life wholesale clothing business and real estate transactions Mr. Sleeper ac quired the large fortune which he has since so liberally Teturned to the world. It was accepted as an axiom among his acquaint ances that if any plan was broached to Mr. Sleeper in the name of Methodism a sub scription was assured. If $1,000 was needed for parish work the committee could always expect $900fram Jacob Sleeper. He was one of the incorporators of the Boston Wes levan Association, which was organized in 1831, and at the time of his death was its oldest member in age, and the only survivor of the original members. Mr. Sleeper was president of the association several years. He was one of the three founders of Bos ton University, and "Jacob Sleeper Hall," one of its finest buildings, is a memorial of his generosity to the institution. The New England Conservatory of Music also has its Sleeper Hall, named in hoivr of its bene factor. The Wesleyan Missionary Home at Newton arose ohiefly through Mr. Sleeper's aid. Over a hundred churches in New En gland have been helped by him. Hisper sonal benefactions were innumerable. Many a young man has been able tojfinish his course at "Wesleyan only because Mr. Sleeper's hand lifted him over financial troubles, and poor families without number have tided over disaster and escaped suffer ing by his kindly help. His modesty was as great as his gener osity. To a friend he once gave the advice that evidently was his own principle: "Do as much good" as you can; and make as little fuss about it as possible." In his home life Mr. Sleeper was the reverse of extrava gant. ' Mr. Sleeper leaves a rson and three daughters. Two of the latter are the "wives of prominent New York' 'publishers.

En couraged bjj their good Inch in trapping they kept on pp the river until they came to the point where the Little Missouri empties into the great Muddy. After a three days,' journey up that little tributary to the great Missouri, they found an old deserted cabin and went into camp. The traps were set again.

William remained un hurt, and taking a Colts navy in either hand, opened upon the dastardly Beds. 3Iis aim was sure, and every shot spoke the death of a Eedsfein. Ten shots had been fired by the lone man and ten Indians lay dead. A panic seemed to seize the five who remained and they turned to beat a hasty retreat. .

Postmaster General "Wanamaker at tended his Bible class as usual yesterday. He took occasion to come out pointedly in favor of the Constitutional amendment. He declared that prohibition can and will pro hibit, and said that ministers, teachers and politicians who were afraid to come out for the amendment were under the influence of the liquor element. He made a strongap peal for prohibition and advised his hearers to pray to God for help to carry the amend ment. Philadelphia, March 31. Postmaster General Wanamaker made his first public utterance to-day on the question of high license and prohibition. He declared in favor of the Constitutional amendment, and exhorted- the 800 persons who listened to his words to work, pray and vote for it. Mr. AVanamaker reached Bethany Sun day school at 2 o'clock. Half an hour later, while the Bethany Orchestra played the opening hytnn, Mr. Wanamaker was in his place of superintendent of the largest Sun day school class in America. After the usual exercises Mr. "Wanamaker. led the way to the church, followed by 400 mem bers of his adult Bible class and 400 visitors. While the visitors were being seated, Mr. Wanamaker announced that it was quarter ly meeting and that theie was no regular lesson. He said he had been requested to talk of temperance. He read a portion of the fifth chapter of E-phesians, beginning with the verse, "Be not drunk with wine." ."WE MUST BE TEMPERATE. He said: "What is the Christian idea of right? It is important that we get the right thought, because then we will do right and lead a happy life, The Christian idea is that we carefully guard our deportment. We should be temperate in all things that we do. The Bible says that he who does not do this is a fool. Now, a man who calls youafoolis not ', minded much, but when God writes us down as fools it is a very seri ous thing. "We should be temperate in everything. That means the use of tobacco and of opium; it includes profanity and anger and impurity of life. We are to so talk that we shall build each other up." Mr. "Wanamaker then referred to the wreck of the American men-of-war at Samoa, and spoke of the broken-hearted wives and children who were waiting for the return of their husbands and fathers, who had been dashed to pieces on the rocks. VICTIMS OF LIQUOR AND LICENSE. He continued: "Eight here in our city are broken hearted people beaten against the rocks of 'adversity by this tide of liquor andof license,. j-Ihe man wber will not sign a temperance -pledge- though he does not need it himself, to'help a weaker brother is not as much ot a man as he thinks himself be. Christ said: Deny yourselves. Take up your cross and follow me. "There is no need to be drunk, to be under the influence of wine. The man who takes only a little and will not give it up is as much controlled by it as if he was an habitual drunkard. He is under the influ ence because he won't give it up.

Arrested for Burning a Hotel, Stealing the Proprietor's Dloney and Daughter) Then Bunnlng Away on Stolen Horses. rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH! ,Newark, N. J., March 31. Cowboy Herbert E. Coddfngton was arrested here on Saturday night at a late hour, on infor mation furnished by a dispatch from "W. "W. Dunbar, District Attorney at Trinidad, "Col. The -telegram said the yonng man was accused of arson, larceny and kidnapping. He was found by Ser geant Boylan at OSColden street, where his stepfather, Jarvis Ayers, resides. Herbert was with a 15-year-old girl, who claimed to be his wife. Both wore som breros, and tried to look like rustlers from away up the gulch. She is pretty and her head is full of romantic ideas. "He is a long-haired young man, who left Newark four years ago, and reached Colorado by vay of Brazil, Cape Horn, Valparaiso and Lower California. Coddington is not more than 28 years, and has evidently imbibed a great deal of border literature. He was locked up at police headquarters, the girl remaining at Mr. Ayers' house. Her name is Aurelia Byle, and at home she was known as Beely. She is the daughter of A. H. Byle, who keeps a miners board ing house at Zopher mine, five miles from Trinidad, Col. Coddington said to-day that he went to work for Byle in December last as a cook, and that one day in January Beeiy came to him and told him that she was ill-treated by her parents and had ar ranged to elope with a young man who suddenly changed his mind and fled with out her. She worked on his sympathies, he said, and as she was a good looking girl he stole two ponies from an Indian and rode with her to Trinidad where they met many friends who fully understood the circum stances and commended his course. They went over the border into New Mexico and were married that night, and got back again to take the train for the East In the latter part of January Chief of Police Hopper, of Newark, received a letter from A. M. Byle, of Zopher Mine, asking him to look out for Herbert Parker and his daughter Aurelia Byle, as Parker was a Newarker and would probably return to his home. Kyle's letiersaid thatParker had stolen- 200 and set fire to the writer's hotel betore running away with the girl. He asked the Chief to watch for them and promised to send the necessary papers for their arrest. Young Coddington admitted to-day that he had been known, by the name of Parker, but said that Mr. Byle knew that his name was Coddington. He said the charge of arson was trumped up. This he said he would prove by a letter which Byle sent him long after the escapade. He said Byle informed him in this letter that the hotel had been burned, .-but he said nothing about missing any money. The girl and Coddington's mother visited him at noon, and the former assured him that she would stick to him through thick and thin. He will be held to await the receipt of the papers from Colorado. JERSEY'S GRETNA GEEEN. Performing the Marriage Ceremony a Profit able Business In Camden. Camden, N. J., March 31. It marriage is bliss, Camden ought to be Blissville. For the last fiye years there have been recorded at the City Clerk's office here from 4,000 to 5,000 marriages annually, which is about four times the normal rate for a city of 70,0QO inhabitants, It is more trouble to get alicense to marry in Philadelphia-than-It is to get a girl willing to marry. Courting has become a secondary consid eration as a preliminary to marriage in the Quaker City. The great thing is to make sure of your license.. Both parties have to pass a sort of civil service examination as to their age, sex and previous condition of servitude or otherwise, and after that the parents all around have to submit schedules of Information under oath as to the condition of their minds as to the contemplated cere mony. If the parents are dead the fact has to he established. If they live in distant parts of the country they have to send on their affidavits just the same. If they are unknown, missing or beyond reach, it makes no difference, the law is the law, and the marriage cannot go on unless something that will pass for a parental consent'is ob tained by forgery, perjury, or in some other wav. f Naturally, the young people object, and therefore go to Jersey to avoid the bother caused by the Pennsylvania laws. One preacher makes marrying almost his sole business, uniting on an average 100 couples a month. Many justices of the peace also do a thriving bnsiness, and their revenue is quite an important one. A, few vears ago, when a marriase license bill was up before the New Jersey Legislature, the Senator from Camden county hotly protested against it, on the ground that it would deprive the ministers of his county alone of an annual revenue of 512,000. It was bad public policy, he ar gued to drive that amount of money out of the State. The Legislature didn't pass the bill. The Senator's estimate was probably not an exaggerated one. The fees from Cam den marriages are generally from $2 to $5. LEFT HIS TRUNK FOE BOARD. How a New York Assemblyman Gat Oat of Albany. ISPECIAL TELEOKAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Nirw York, March 31. There is a bad story afloat about Assemblyman Timothy Dry-dollar Sullivan. It is said that" he had been sued by his boarding mistress in Albany, and even that he had left his trunk, with $300 worth of clothing and diamonds, in the clutches of the Albany woman. "Absolutely false," said little Jack Sullivan; "anybody who knows Tim knows hfi wouldn'tleave his trunk." "Tell you all about it, fellows," the As semblyman said; "Dominick Mullany, over in the Fift', and me hired lodgings in North Pearl street. Dom got sick and left. I couldn't keep such quarters. I sent a fellow with the rent for two weeks, to get my trnnk. The boarding mistress said that she would see me. She did see me. She sent a lawyer after me with a summons from Justice Donaher's court. Now you know if Donaher was only down here she would not stand a ghost of a show, but ydi know he is in Albany, where she isT That's how I am being goosed. The boarding mistress can keen the trunk, diamonds dress suit and all." LOST IN THE PARK. A Yellowstono Scoot nnd a Soldier Among tho Missing. LivinostSn, Mont., March 31. It is about certain that a park scout named Wil son and one soldier who accompanied him are lost. They started three weeks ago for a trip through the park to see if there were any trespassers molesting the game. Thev were to have been back in ten days, but have not turned up. A relief party was started out this morn ing by Captain Harris. The theory is that the unfortunate men have attempted to cross the Yellowstone, and have gone through the ice.

To-day's election In Cincinnati far exceed the usual municipal contest in interest. Indeed, It rises almost to national import ance. If the Democrats carry the city, as seems likely, they will be in good shape to carry the county for their legislative con test in the fall, "As goes Hamilton county so goes the State." A Democratic Legisla ture would give Senator Payne his longed for opportunity to seek a "vindication." So all eyes in Ohio to-tlay center on Cincin nati. SPECIAL TELJEOEAM TO TEES DISPATCH.1 Cincinnati, March 31. To-morrow will be an important day in the political his tory of Cincinnati, and in the State also, for that matter, for the complexion of the next General Assembly and the election of Senator Payne's successor, it is thought, will be determined by the result of to-morrow's contest here. There is a deal qf trouble in the local camps. The causes have existed for at least two years, and the result was inevit able. The Bepublicans are in the worst fix and the chances for their success are much against them. The existence- of the organization known as the Loyal Kepub lican League is responsible, directly, for tha present chaos in the fold; or, rather, the ex posure of its existence is responsible, for it has been an organization for several years, and it counts among its members gentle men the mention of whose names would oc casion a flurry of considerable proportions. SPRUNG A LITTLE TOO SOON. The organization is unrepublican and was bound to result in injury to the party, but it would have been better for party organs to have waited till after the election to attack it. However, it was jumped upon, and pencils of unwonted sharpness showed to the public thehideousness of the "gang," resulting in a direct conflict in convention and the presentation by the Committee of Five Hundred of an independent ticket, with Daniel Stone for Mayor. The question has really become one of morals, and the closing of the saloons on Sunday is the hinge upon which to-morrow's result will turn. The present Mayor, Amor Smith, Jr., has made practically no effort to enforce the law, and after a couple of Sundays of quiet the saloons resumed their all-week custom, and the front doors have been as open on Sunday as on Satur day. This fact was the first thing that induced the organization of the Committee of Five Hundred,- and now that an organization, calculated to keep in power men who would follow in Smith's tracks, has been dis closed, this committee has nominated a strong ticket "which, while it cannot be elected, will poll at least- 8,000 ToteJ most of which will be Republican, and thus will the DEMOCRATIC TICKET BE ELEGTED, almost as a whole. General Noyes, the Re publican candidate for Supreme Judge, may weather the storm, but it Is doubtful if any other Kepublican candidate escapes shipwreck. Such a result will give the Democrats control of the municipal machinery, and if with it they do not elect the Democratic Legislative ticket next fall the surprise, even to sanguine Bepublicans, will be great. A Democratic delegation from Hamilton county in the State Legislature would al most without a doubt make that body Dem ocratic, and Senator Payne, with proper in ducements, might realize his hope; to suc ceed himself in the United States Senate. Arising from the differences in the Ke publican ranks there are reports affecting the State machinery, The Times-Slar, the organ of the "Mugwumps" here, says that Governor Foraker, who has always been very thick with George B. Cox, one of the big 'uns in the Loyal Kepublican League, has determined to again be a candidateJbr Governor, and that as soon as opportunity offers which means after the election he will chop off the head of every Sherman man employed in any capacity under the all-powerful Board of Public Affairs. FORAKER -WILL NOT RUN. This may and it may not be simply a campaign rnmor. A gentleman close to the Governor informed The Dispatch correspondent that, so far as Foraker's can didacv is concerned, there is not a word ot truth 'in it "The Goernor." said he, "is not and will not be a candidate for re-election." The same gentleman only laughed t the other rumor, saying it wasn't worth denying or contradicting, because the lie is given it by the fact that Foraker will not again be-Governor, and the beheading of the gentlemen in question would, therefore, do him no possible good. It may seem a difficult matter to foretell who will likely be the successful contestant in the Gubernatorial race that is, in the race for the Kepublican nomination be cause Bushnell has twice declined to run, while General Gibson, E. L Lampson, Lieutenant Governor Lyon and others are announced. But the same gentleman above referred to, a gentleman.who has had years of experience in State politics, is of the opinion that despite Busbnell's declination he will be nominated on the first ballot, if not by acclaim. HALSTEAD "WANTS VINDICATION. Since, the rejection by the Senate of the nomination of Murat Halstead as Minister to Germany, that gentleman's name is also used in connecon with the Gubernatorial race, the talk being that if elected Governor, , he would be a candidate for Senator; thus being able to make a deal with Lieutenant Governor Lyon, and get that gentleman off tne track he now being an avowed candt date for Governor. But, to return to Cincfnnati politics, though every circumstance and combination of circumstances seem to indicate the defeat of the Kepublican ticket this spring, Mosby's supporters are quite confident, and it is a possibility that he may, with the assistance of the liberal class, pull through. How ever, nobody will bave an overwhelming majority, and to-morrow's contest is not likely to be definitely settled until tho polls close at 4 o'clock. A COLORED DETECTIYE KILLED.
