HIS RADICAL ADVICE, Secretary Windom is Informed That the Jeannette Glass Workers MUST BE SENT BACK HOME. The Administration's Highest Legal Authority Says So. YICE PBESIDEKT HOBTOX'S SPEAK-EAST V Probable Speedy Decision in the Imported Laborers' Cate Important Enough to Hold a Ccblnet Consoltailoa Upon Opinions of the Attorney General and the Solicitor or the Treasnry The Men Shonld be Sent Back and District At torney Lyon Brine Salt Against the Of fendersThe Vice President's Aristo cratic Barroom the Talk of Washing ton He Mav Have to Lease the Entire Establishment to Stop the Gossips' Tongues. Secretary "Windom is advised by Solicitor Hepburn and Attorney General Miller that the Jeannette glassworkers must be sent back and proceedicgs.be begun against the firms and their agents who imported them. A Cabinet consultation, however, will be held on the important matter. Vice Presi dent Morton's aristocratic bar is the topic of excitement in the capital. Mr. Morton will likely have to lease his entire hotel. ntOSI A ETATT COKEESrCXDENT. "Washington, November 10. It is probable that within a Jew days the author ities of the Treasury Department will reach the end of the Jeannette glassworkers' case, and the prospects are that it will result in & decision to instruct District Attorney Lyon to proceed against Chambers & Mc Kee and Campbell and Slicker as princi pals and agents in the making of the con tract with the English workmen, and to take steps to have the latter returned to their own country. The department has proceeded very slowly and carefully in its examination of this case. When Assistant Secretary Batcheller received the papers on both sides, with the information presented by Distiict Attorney Lyon, he soon became convinced that there was more in it than had appeared on a hasty examination. He referred the matter to Solicitor Hepburn, who has spent much time in SIFTING THE EVIDENCE. ' He found the case possessed some features different from any other which has been pre sented under the alien contract labor law, - in the manner in which the alleged con tract was made, through the agency of labor organizations, and a delicate question was involved as to who was guilty, if there was an infraction of the law at all. So peculiar were some of the phases of the case that, while the Solicitor was de cided in his own mind that there were am ple grounds for a prosecution under the law, it was thought best to present the whole matter to the Attorney General for his opinion. The Solicitor read his opin ion yesterday to the Secretary and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, and later a brief of the evidence, with the opinion, were gone over to the Attorney General, and it is understood that supreme legal adviser of the administration agrees with the Solicitor of the Treasury that there are good grounds for a suit OP VTTAr. IMPOETANCE. It is prsbable, however, that before the final step is taken and the suit ordered the matter'will be discussed at a Cabinet meet ing, as the case involves a much more radi cal application of the law than hrfs been involved in any previous suit, and will form an important precedent in future cases in which it may appear that an attempt has been made to evade the law. In the analysis of the evidence the ques tion arose whether, on account of the Jean nette factory using the tank process, which was not common in America, it might not be claimed that the contracting parties Vrere exempt under that section of yihe law which provides that work men may be imported to operate a new industry, when experienced American work men cannot be had; but an examination of the work required for the tank process convinced the Solicitor that the labor was so nearly identical with that of the ordinary process as to preclude any excuse upon the grounds that this was a new industry. THE PEOBABLE OUTCOME. If further consultation, therefore, does not completely reverse all the present con victions of the Treasury authorities and their legal advisors, District Attorney Lyon will shortly be instrucied to begin suit against Chambers & McKee and their agents, separately, in each one of the 25 cases, the extreme penalty being $1,000 fine in each case and the costs of prosecution. At the same time the workmen themselves, in case the law be found to have been violated, will be taken in charge and returned to England, . at the expense of the vessel which brought them here. It seems to be now the opinion of the au thorities that the machinery of the present law is sufficient to procure the apprehen sion and return of workmen who have passed the custom officials or the inspectors of immigration, though some time ago an opposite view was taken. The appropria tion made at the last session of Congress CONTEMPLATED THIS YEBY THING, and it is not probable, in case it be decided . there was a contract, that there will be any difficulty in the way of returning the men to their homes. Of course, in cate of con viction an appeal can be taken, and more over, a compromise may be made, the Gov ernment remitting a portion or all of the fine. In a case where a Texas contractor was convicted in upward of CO cases a com promise would probably have been made by the late administration had not the proposi tion come during the campaign of last year. After Cleveland's defeat it was decided to leave the matter as a legacy to the succeed ing administration. The object of this and the aim of the Gov- j Xf Hones . ? .t eminent is not so much to punish the guilty as to prevent the importation of workmen under contract, or to return them to their own country where they are brought here under contract. Lightneb. MOBTOTS SPEAK-EASY. The Vice President's Bar Getting- a Biff Advertisement The DIost-Talked-of Mnn and Saloon In tho Country An Unlicensed Honse Tor Awhile. rFROK -A STAFF CORRESPOND EXT.J "Washington, November 10. Vice Present Morton is probably the most wor ried member in this administration. The discussion of his bar-room license by the "W. C. T. U., at Chicago yesterday, has loosed the tongues of people here who pre viously had not dared'to open their months, and the local press, which before had been exceedingly quiet about the affair, are to night preparing for a "spread" which will give the Shoreham hotel a great advertise ment. The District authorities were loyal to the powers that be, and when they issued the first license of the next license year, two or three days ago, to James Keenan, no men tion was made that the license was really for the Vice President, and for the Shoreham, and the name of Keenan was passed over without attracting general notice. The re sult of the widespread discussion will prob ably be that the Vice President of the United States will cease selling wines and liquors and running a hotel on his own hook, and lease the whole business to Keenan or some one. At present Mr. Keenan is simply his steward or manager. Mr. Keenan said this evening that no bar would be Opened, and that no drinks would ever be sold except to guests of the honse. Bnt drinks have been otherwise sold, and that when the Shoreham had no license at all. Par from blowing over, gossip in regard to the matter appears to be only beginning, and Mr. Morton promises within the next few days to be the most-discussed-man in the country. Patriotic temperance people say it is bad enongh for the Vice President to be engaged in the liqnor business, but it gives them a more uncomfort able feeling to know that they may wake up any morning and hear of the sudden death of the President, and they don't want to run the chance 01 the chief executive being in the business of a barkeeper. On the other hand, the liquor men point to Trinity Church, in New York, and other churcnes as making a profit out of property leased to liauor sellers, and to good deacons and elders the country over, simi larly engaged, and to the direct representa tives and lawmakers of tbe people in the Senate and House of Representatives, who each session provide for the sale of bever ages of all kinds in magnificent bars at both wings of the national capital. HABRISOiYS TEMPER Not Improved by the Surprises of the Recent Election An Alleged Quarrel With Senator Sawyer Tho Lat ter' Partial Denial. renCIAL TELEORAM TO THE PISrATCH.1 "Washington, November 10. President Harrison has been made to realize in several ways the fact that the administration was somewhat involved in last Tuesday's elec tion. It is very -openly stated that the Pres ident has a Republican Senator on his hands who is very mad at the way he was treated because the President was in an ill humor over the result of the elections. This isjthe Hon. -Philetus Sawyer, of Wisconsin. Unsuspecting the state of mind of tbe Presi dent, the Senator, after the usual courtesies, said: "Mr. President, I called upon you to-day to see if you would not act favorably in Guenther's case and make him Consul Gen eral to Havana." The Guentber referred to is the German-American ex-Congressman from Wisconsin who was mentioned last spring for Recorder of Deeds of the District To this tbe President replied: "It does not seem to me that this is a good time to press Mr. Guenther's case after what the Germans have done in Ohio and Iowa." Finally the President intimated that he preferred to talk the matter over at another time, and the manner in which he conveyed the suggestion indicated that he would not care if the Senate never called np Guen ther's case again. Mr. Sawyer was asked for his version of the matter, and said: So far as the statement inmutes to me .inprr or displeasure over any phase of tbe interview wth tbe President the statement is absolutely without the slightest degreeor shadow of foun dation. I have known tbe President for many years and never observed him to be wanting in courtesy of manner or kindliness of heart. He explained to me some of the difficulties per taining to one of tbe subjects of our conversa tion, and I recognized both their existence and weight, and told him so. I have been too many years in public life to expect a Presi dent to be able to gratify all wishes of con stituents, and his inability to do so certainly caused in ine neitber aneer nor surprise. On tbe occasion referred to I bad no conversation with the President upon the subject of the re cent elections. The statementthat he referred, in conversation with me or in my presence, to the course of the Germans or of any other na tionality at tho late elections in Ohio or else where is unqualifiedly untrue. EEED'S BOOM HAS A BOOST. The Election In Ohio Believed to Have Somcwhnt Weakened McKinley. SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE PIBPATCH. "Washington, November 10. Repre sentatives. Cannon and Henderson are the only two candidates for the Speakership of tne House ot .Representatives now in the city, but Reed, McKinley and Burrows are all expected this week, and with their pres ence, and that of probably one-half or two thirds of tbe members of the House, the fight for the powerful position of Speaker will be on in earnest It appears to be the impres sion that the elections have increased the chances of Reed, if they have had any in fluence at all in the contest The defeat of Foraker in Ohio has at least suggested a lack of influence on the part of McKinley and other Congressmen of tnat State, and the charge that McKinley and his friends were of that political faction which was lukewarm toward Poraker, and which actually contributed moral influence, if in no other way, to the loss of the Gover norship, has, in the judgment of many, given a death-blow to all prospects ot the election of the ambitious statesman from Canton. Whether the charge be true or not, it has awakened a suspicion that there are Grounds for it, and Congressmen who have een friendly to McKinley. are known to have declared that he must not now be elected to tbe Speakership. It is assumed that anything that weakens McKinley will strengthen Reed more than anyone else, though Reed's friends do not for a moment admit that any other candi date than their own ever had a shadow of a chance for election. HE DIDST TAEE THE SAFE. A County Treasurer or Kansas In Canada With All the Ponds. Manhattan, Kan., November 10. A letter was received here to-day from James Fortner, County Treasurer of this, Ripley county, stating that he was at Wind sor, Ont, having gone there on the 5th of November to escape arrest for having embezzled the county funds. Fort ner's attorney, G. S. Green, has the keys to the safe, and he refuses to open the safe un til he can be authoritatively ordered to do so by the County Commissioners, who will meet to-morrow for that purpose. It is believed that Fprtner made way with all the county funds. rR .' POWDERLY ON ANARCHY. The Bead of the Knights of Labor Saya Red Flag; Followers Should be Sup pressed Tho Law Ought to Sit Down on Them. tSrXCIAI. TXUOBAU TO THE piSPATCn.l Philadelphia, November 10. Unless the police interfere the Anarchists have de termined to hold their mass meeting at Odd Fellows' Hall to-morrow night The Anarchists are greatly excited over the rumor that the police will be in attendance at their meeting. They fear that the officers will interfere with the proceedings. A secret meeting of the Committee on Agita tion was held this evening to determine upon a plan of action. General Master Workman Powderly, ot the Knights of Labor, was at the Windsor Hotel this afternoon, and, in answer to a question concerning his position, said: I have devoted considerable space to that snbjectin my book, "Thirty Years of Labor." I consider Anarchists are born devils, whose only mission is to raise a disturbance, which I think they would endeavor to do under any consideration. I think that tho police shonld suppress all meetings of this kind, if the pur pose is to create a feeling of discontent as is perfectly evident from the inflammatory circu lar issued for this meeting. No Anarch st has any right to speak for the Knights ot Labor, and it is a great piece of presumption to attempt to work upon tbe sym pathy of the members by using our motto: "An injury to one is the concern of aH." in connec tion with the commemoration of tbe elocution or certain enemies to the welfare of the republic. There Is another thing in connec tion with that circular that I wonld like to speak about and that is the mentioning of Albert;Parsons as a member of the Knights of Labor. Well, what if he wasT That does not signify anything more than the fact that he was also a Mason. Why didn't they harangue that organization to join them in their danger ous undertaking? Parsons' enmo was not committed under any law of tbe Knights of Labor, or under any Masonic law, and it there fore naturally follows that the fact that be was a member of those bodies is entirely with out any significance. These Anarchists can claim what they please. They can endeavor to convince people tint they are peaceful in their ideas, bnt their past actions prove that their claim is a fallacy, and only makes it more evident that thev are em phatically a crowd in favor of force. At Ml of their meetings the violent haranguing and the threatening remarks of their speakers will go still further to prove this fact" There is only one .legitimate way to correct existing social wrongs, and that is by the ballot TO IMPROVE THE CAPITOL. The Architect Makes a Number of.Snggcs tloni In That Line. rSPECIAL TELEOEAM TO TBS PI8FATCB.1 Washington, November 10. Edward Clark, the Architect of the Capitol, in bis annual report to the Secretary of the In terior, recommends or suggests that the central portion of the building be enlarged and extended, to give it a more imposing appearance, in keeping with the improvements that hare" been going on at the west front for several years. The grand marble stairway and ter races are approaching completion, and the architect thinks that the beautiful and imposing nature of the work gives the main portion of tne Capitol building a dingy and cheap ap pearance. His idea now is to have this old central building enlarged and the walls constructed ot marble, as are the Senate and House wings, and the new system of terraces and stairways. The building and surroundings at present are of three colors. The central or old por tion under the dome is of stone, painted a dirty gray, the wings are of cream-colored marble, and the new terraces and stairways are of white marble, which, however, may Decome yellow with sge and thns 49ffespbtf3 With the" wings. The dome is of iron and painted about the same color-as the old portion of the building. The new grand stairway is a fine piece of work, and the most creditable improvement that has been made about the Capitol for man v yearn. The construction of the terraces afford a large number of additional rooms that have been greatly needed, and which will be at once utilized for committee and storage rooms. Some ot the former will be used at the ap proaching session of Congress. THE MOST STAKTLIXG OF ALL. Kuaze to Tarn Stnte's Evidence Against tbe Cronln Conspirators. rSFECIAZ, TELEORAH TO THE DI8PATCH.1 Chicago, November 10. Sudden and sensational developments have been charac teristic features of the Cronin murder con spiracy, and before this week closes the most startling sensation ot all is expected to be introduced by the State at the trial. It was learned to-day, from a semi-official source, thai the last wit ness which the State's Attorney will call before resting his case will be John Kunze, defendant Owing to his nationality and his intimate relations with Dan Coughlin, the opinion generally prevailed at the time of Kunze's arrest that if he had anything to do with the conspira cy it was only as an innocent tool of the detective. When the trial began it was not known outside of the offi cials connected with tbe prosecution that any more evidence existed against Kunze than the fact that he drove Coughlin to the Carlson cottage and left him there on the night of May 4. With that understanding, it was thought, the State put Kunze on trial, so as to induce him to tell all he knew about the movements of Coughlin on May 4. Now he knows the criminating char acter of the evidence against him and realizes the mistake he made in not becom ing a witness for the State to save his own neck. His story will strike the last nail in the coffins of Burke, Coughlin and O'SulIivan. Since Kunze recovered from his illness he has been as light-hearted as ever, always in good humor, and joking or laughing at time. YxTEIOL AND MOEPHIJiE, Two Terrible Drugs With Which Laura Bailey Was Taken to Jnll. When Laura Bailey and May Donelson, who are charged with enticing minor girls to improper resorts, were taken to the jail on Saturday morning a startling discovery was made, and is disclosed at this late hour. The matron, on searching the former wo man, discovered a bottle of sulphuric acid (vitriol) and about a teaspoonful of morphine concealed about her person. It is supposed that she expected, if the trial re sulted badly for her, to disfigure or blind some one with the vitriol and end her own life with the morphine. No clew can be obtained toher intentions, as she resolutely refuses to speak upon the subject She has but little mercy to look for in the sentence or the Court, if found guilty, as the statement of the judge on Saturday (which caused the withdrawal of the plea) proved.

The Bwcpe Funeral and Oilier Outcomes of the Terrible Drama. , The last act in Lexington's terrible double tragedy was the death of Colonel Goodloe yesterday. He died bravely, and, before his decease, testified that the death thrusts he made at his antagonist with a knife were forced from him by his own death wound. Lexington is under a pall. ISrEUAL TELEQUAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Lexington, Ky., November 10, Tbe curtain fell on the Goodloe-Swope tragedy at 12:55 o'clock to-day, when the second vic tim of the fearful and deadly struggle, like his antagonist, quietly passed away. After the operation reported in to day's Dispatch had been performed, Colonel Goodloe rested until -o'cloek this morn ing, when he awoke and took some nourishment. At this hour his con dition was fairly favorable, but three hours later he be gan to fail, and his physicians, after aa examination, at once said that he ennlil Tint nossiblv Colonel A. it.

The rector of that con gregation here was summoned, and the HOLT COMMUNION WAS ADMINISTERED to the dying man. To his family, who had gathered around him, he simply said: "Be brave," and, answering "yes" to a question asked as to his condition by one of his physi cians, he sank back on his pillow, never to raise his head again. Two hours later, amid the groans and dis tressed cries of his loved ones, the doctors pronounced him dead. With the exception of his brother, Major Green Clay Goodloe, who failed to arrive from Washington City until to-night, all his family were at his bedside during his last hours, and the griet they ex pressed would surely have brought tears even to, the eyes of those unused to weep ing.

Goodloe's statement of the difficulty, after he was told that he could not live, makes Swope tbe aggressor, as he drew and shot Goodloe just as the latter got his knife open. Goodloe said that, feeling he had received a death wound, he cut him until he fell. Hundreds of telegrams of sympathy have been received by the family. The following three are given: Washington, November 8. Mrs. William Cassius Goodloe. My heart bleeds for you all May God spare his lite and give you strength to bear this awful calamity.

The day of Colonel Swooe's luneral op ened dismally. Great black clouds hovered overhead, threatening every moment to dis charge their misty contents. At 8:30 o'clock a winding train lett Danville, with the dead duelist's funeral cortege. For six miles it made a black streak on the green landscape, and then stopped at an odd-looking honse whose black roof and red gables were strangely suggestive of Hawthorne's "House of Seven Gable." Hera it paused, and those who were in the carriages alighted. The house was the residence of Mr. James Swope. It was in a little front room here, about 18 feet square, in a coffin of matchless black cloth, that the boSr of Colonel Swope lay. As soon as the Danville mourners had arrived the luneral servicesi were begun by Eider J. S. Shouse. JUST AS SAD FOE THEM AXSO. This was at 1030 o'cloct. Scriptural passages were read, alter which "Nearer My God to Thee," "Rock of Ages" aud "Jesus, Lover of My Soul," were rendered y a choir whose voices from a distant room had an intonation that was strangely sweet. Elder Shouse then began an address which was marvelously well timed. In it be praised Colonel Swope for his poli tical integrity; his honesty as a man and brother: his record as an office holder, and his many acts of cnantv. jiaer onoase pointed a moral from the awful affray. He said there was a false notion of manhood in Kentucky. Mr. Shouse had an interview with Colonel Swone immediately aiter he insulted Good loe publicly in the rotunda of the Phoenix Hotel. In this talk Elder Shouse said Colonel Swope told him that he went to the Phoenix Hotel on that momentous day, FULLY EXPECTING TO BE KILLED by Goodloe. He had, he said, previously put away every weapon, even to a small pocket knife which he carried. Elder Shouse quotes him as having said: "I could not bear to live, sir, if I had made that wife a widow and those children orphans." He fre quently spoke of Mrs. Goodloe and her children, continued the minister, and never any way but kindly. The speaker said that he had it from con fidential friends of Swope that the latter was not carrying the pistol with which he shot Goodloe for him. but for another man who he did not consider as honorable man. (The man meant was Preston J.-Kimbail, of this' city, between j lip m cA JUSmOk wv fat, SfAKW ' 'WWW ".' r NOVEMBER 11, 1889. whom and Swope bad blood had for some time existed.) All through his sermon Elder Shouse punctuated the moral to his text, which was taken from Proverbs, xvi:32, and was "He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that rnleth his own spirit greater than he who taketh a city." THE DEADLY KNIFE. A Washington special adds: "I have often seen the knile with which Colonel Swope was killed by Colonel Goodloe," said a iriend of the latter to-day. "It is a clasp knife, with a pointed blade, about four inches long, and with a spring which holds -the blade back when once opened. Colonel Goodloe has always carried this knile, and he carried it as a weapon. It was the only weapon he did carry. "I never knew a Clay who did not carry a clasp knife. Henry Clay carried one, and all the Clays who have come after him car ried the same sort'of a knife. It is the tra ditional weapon of the Clay family." ALL AT ATLANTA. The Knights of Labor Headquarters Moved South for the Convention Expected Exposure of the Declino of the Order During the Past Year. rsrxciAi, teleobam to tits dispatch.! Philadelphia, November 10. Tho Knights of Labor leaders at the headquart ers in this city, have packed up their bag gage and ejects and have left with all speed lor Atlanta, where the General Assembly will be convened on Tuesday afternoon. General Master Workman Powderly left Scranton this morning, for the scene of the coming convention, and John W. Hayes, General Secretary and General Treasurer and general officer of .the General Execu tive Board, leit this 'city Thursday, with four big trunks filled with important docu ments, papers, certificates, reports and char ters. He went in advance, so that he might prepare beforehand the preliminary business of the convention, in order to avoid unne cessary delay. A. 'W. Wright, J. J. Holland, John Devlin and John Costello, the other general officers, have also started on their way to Atlanta, and have leit the headquarters here absolutely deserted, the four clerks employed there having taken a vacation, and even the janitor having knocked off work until the managers of the North Broad street establishment shall have returned. .These officers and about 75 delegates will constitute the General Assembly ot tbe once great order that at Richmond, in 1886, comprised 700 delegates from all over the country. The present delegation will go mainly from themteriorof New York State, from Pennsylvania and the farming districts of Western and Southern States. The cities will be but scantily represented. Philadelphia sends one representative, Robert Glymer, employed at the headquar ters; Pittsburg sends one, and New York, City one or two. The attendance of delegates and tbe geo graphy of their representation will show, more than anything else, the remarkable decline of the Knights. Although it is re ported that 180 new locals, with a member ship of 8,340, have been formed within the past two months, it is certain that the shrinkage on the whole has been enormous since the General Assembly met last No vember in Indianapolis. THREE FATALLY SCALDED. A Boiler Explosion nt a Colliery Near JHr. naaaant-JIu KatalltT ThatFol- flowed Frrink Blonk Fonr Boilers Uojo Up. rerrciAt. teleobam to niz dispatch.i Hazelton, November 10. A terrible boiler explosion occurred at No. 1 colliery, ML Pleasant, four miles from here, this morning, in which three men were scalded to death. The colliery is owned and oper ated by Calvin Pardee & Co., and is situ ated about 300 yards from the village of Mt. Pleasant. Early this morning John Bul lock, the chief fireman, began to turn cold water into the boilers, and one of the five exploded instantly. Frank Monk, an Italian ash-wheeler, was instantly killed. He was standing in front of the boilers, pouring water on the red hot ashes, preparatory to wheeling them out. The boiler was blown into two pieces. One piece was thrown northward a distance of about 100 feet, and theotheraboutlOO yards into a reservoir. Four boilers were moved by the explosion, one being iilown up into the air a distance of about 50 feet, and as it came down it crashed,through theroof of the engine honse, struck an upright iron rod, which pierced it, and the escaping steam scalded John Bul lock and Joseph Babbish, the assistant fire man, so badly that they died at 11 o'clock. Two Hungarians, John Mikelosh and Mike TTnderco, escaped unhurt Bullock and Babbish were Hungarians, who leave large families. Monk, the Italian, had received a letter from Italy the day before, stating that his wife had died, and he had told tbe boss that he would leave here this week for Italy, to bring his children over. The boiler house was blown to pieces. The engine house is also a complete wreck. Tbe loss to Pardee & Co., is abont $10,000. The explosion, it is thonght, was caused by the fireman allowing the water in the boiler to run too low, and when the cold water came into contact with the heated boiler plates, an explosion followed. The shock was plainly felt here. The coroner's inquest will be held to-morrow. DEATH OF GENERAL BOUfiKE. The Career of One Who Fought for the Liberty of Ireland. ' IBriCIAL TELEOIIAU TO TILE D13PATCR.1 New Yoek, November 10. General Thomas Francis Bourke, the Irish patriot, died this morning. He had -been confined to his bed about a week and his death was caused by a complication of kidney troubles. There are few names better known in the history ft" the Fenian outbreak of 1867 in Ireland than that of Thomas F. Bourke. He was born in Fethard, county Tipperary, on Decern ber.10, 1840. Twenty years later, with his parents, he came to this country. In New York young Bourke attended "the public schools and later the seminary established by Archbishop Hughes. At the outbreak of the war Bourke went south and joined the Confederate army, where he served with distinction and earned the grade of Brevet General. His health was impaired and one limb shattered. He returned to New York in 1865 and turned his whole at tention to the Fenian movement. He left for Ireland in 1866 to take an active part in the Fenian insurrection, which the broth erhood in America had been planning. He was assigned to Tipperary in the insur rection of March. At Ballyhurst Fort, on the evening of March 6, 1867, Bonrke was captured by a detachment of soniiers as he was leading the Tipperary Fenians. After a long trial, he was convicted and sentenced to be hanged. His speecho the Court after his conviction was printed and excited widespread sympathy for the con demned man. On the morning ap pointed for his execution his sentence was commuted to imprisonment for lile. Friends were actively working in his be half, however, and in 1871 he was released from prison on the understanding tbqt he was not to return to Ireland for 20 years. With Thomas Clarke Luby, Dr. Mulcabey, Dr. Power. Captain Harry Mullada and a .number of other Fenians, Bourke returned to New York broken in health and fortune. He at once became active in the nntinnnl organization and delivered a number of lectures in aid o the Irish cause. , ,- .. f j HANGINGONTO'HOPE.

There were several candidates on the Republican ticket who thought and assumed in the campaign that they were more popular than the Gov ernor before the people, and they will not let go the hope that they are elected until the official count demonstrates the fact beyond all doubt. Notwithstanding the fact that the Secre tary of State made extra preparations for getting in the official returns at the earliest moment possible, the counties have been slow in making their reports, and last even ing, when the work of the week practically concluded, there were not enough of the official figures on hand to, make any more accurate estimate as to the balance of the ticket than had been made on the semi official returns which had been received two or three days previous. SOMEWHAT SUEPBISED. The minor candidates on the Republican ticket have done little else since the elec tion, except to make inquiries aud do what they could to get the returns. They are somewhat surprised that there should be so little interest in their behalf. In fact, there are many Republicans who are anxious that the whole Democratic ticket shonld be elected, as long as the Republicans were not able to carry the head, and be able to con trol the patronage which it gives. The friends of Governor Foraker are taking little interest in the balance of the ticket, and it is learned from good sources that they would be pleased if there was not one of the Republican candidates elected. It is in the nature of a humiliation to the Governor that he should not be able to run somewhere near to tbe other candidates, and especially so when it is known that the effort of the campaign was concentrated in his behalf, to the discouragement of some of the others, though it was in great meas ure offset by the direct fight which was made by tbe Democracy against mm per sonally, and AGAINST HIS EECOKD in office. In fact, the leading Republicans would,. much prefer Ihatthe-wbole -Democratic ticket should be elected,, so that tbe administration wonld not be troubled with any Republican trimmings, and be able to defend themselves by the political partner ship argumentin the next tSmpa'igif. There is much expected of the Democracy in the coming Legislatureand they are by circumstances compelled to take action upon a number of important subjects, because of the reckless promises which have been made during the campaign just closed. The liquor men especially are at the front, de manding that faith be kept with' them, and that they he relieved from some of the direct burdens which have been imposed by Republican legislatures. Ex-Governor Foster, who probably has more friends in the State than any other one Republican, is the most sorely disappointed man who had anything to do' with the cam paign. He felt' SUEE OF A VTCTOBY, and gave the figures some days before the election upon which he thought the State ticket would be elected and the Legislature be Republican on joint ballot. In addition to being a member of the State Committee, lie personally entered the campaign in his own behalf and in the interest of the State ticket, bnt it is well known that he gave special attention to the Senatorial question, and it was agreed among the politicians that he should be the beneficiary, in case of success. No one has seen proper to deny the report that he placed considerable money on the result, as it was the one time in the history of Ohio politics when he had an opportunity to lift himself into the United States Senate without so much as anyone to contest with him. It is now believed that because of the well-defined understanding which existed during the campaign in regard to Foster, that he was placed somewhat in the same position before the Republicans of tbe State as was Governor Foraker in his candidacy for a third term. He was AN OBJECT OP ENVY to the other prominent Republicans of the State, and it is believed he suffered from their peculiar opposition as badly as Fora ker, though in a quite different manner. It was much easier to accomplish the defeat 'of a candidate for the Senate by going into the close counties than it was to do effective work against a candidate before the whole people. When Foraker and Foster come to compare notes they will find that they were placed in somewhat the same position before the leaders of their own party. Grosvenor.Buttersrortb, Kennedy, Thomp son, all of whom are members of Congress; Lieutenant Governor Lyon and other dfrect followers and admirers of Sherman in the State are now engaged in the work of squar ing themselves with the representatives of the ticket; but there is strong intimation that the trouble is not entirely over, and that there will be many OLD SCOBES TO SETTLE in the future. The friends of Foraker claim that Sherman was the only man who gave the third-term candidate anything like a hearty support on the stump, and he ,is given lull credit lor tne worn wnicn ne oia. Had there been any possibility of the elec tion of Foraker, Sherman would have been given full credit for his share in the work. It was said after his speech in this city that Sherman seldom made mistakes, and the fact that he had entered heart and soul into the campaign for the election of Foraker was cited more than any other one circum stance as the strongest indication that For aker would be elected, as Sherman must know what he was doing, and would not talk at random. But he seems to have not been on the inside, and was not acquainted with the working forces as they were organ ized. Through fear that something may happen in the future, several of the Republicans above named are already hedging as to their conduct during the campaign. General Grosvenor was quoted as having stated to Candidate Campbell that he desired THE DEFEAT OP POEAKEB, and was doing all he could to accomplish that result, but now be is busily engaged in denying that any such thing occurred, and it is' considered so important a matter, from a party standpoint, that General Grosvenor has secured the services of Mr. Campbell in a statement that he never talked ia that irm.mn sasss - FATCfC z?r WAKTS ! wJS manner tot Mm ft,, nnl to show that there are fears for thJVSiS Those who flatter thpmiEn . t Foraker is out of Ohio politics affi2s'ra? a great mistake, as he will be atW&Zp ?' in the future, and he will be theiSSf -, 8 special benefit of his enemies and VX' The Legislature will contij? ithe 6th of January, and one week lJtp".oVork of making a United States .",3 nil be formally gone through with J "jftisiness of deciding who the man shfcL-otw ill be practically accomplished before that time, and indeed, it is now claiming more atten tion than any other one subject, for the reason that it is a relief from election routine and gives promise of news. THE SPOILS OP OFFICE in the State under the new administration will, in great measure, sink into insignifi cance in the light of the Senatorial contest. There wilL be several hundred positions to dispose of by the incoming Legislature and the new Governor, but this work will be done Quietly. The best positions under Mr. Campbell have already been appropriated by the workers and hangers-on who were about Democratic headquarters during the cam paign. They have literally picked out.all that is worth going after, and have settled back, waiting lor their commissions to be handed to them. The Cincinnati Enquirer, which takes to Itself the credit of having accomplished the Democratic victory, has candidates for many of the best positions. Claude Meeker is making a canvass for private secretary to Mr. Campbell, and the contest has become so hot already that he is on the gronnd securing every good word which can be DEOPPED IN HIS INTEBEST. Mr. Ed Hughes, of Hamilton, an old friend of Campbell's, is mentioned for tbe place, bnt it is thought the organ influence will be brought to bear, and that Meeker will have to be given the place. W. A. Taylor, also of the Enquirer, has announced himself for clerk of the Senate, while (he lesser personages abont Democratic head- Quarters are after the minor places in the epartments. It is going to be AN INTEBESTINQ MESS before the work is completed, especially so as the colored Democrats who were so con spicuous in the campaign, particularly in Cincinnati, are clamorous for reward in the spoils ot office, and each one has already selected the berth now occupied by one of his color, and which he would like to fill Under the new administration. While all this small work is going on the Senatorial selection will be at its highest pitch. Ihere are 20 or more candidates to succeed Senator Payne, bnt of course some ot them will cut sorry figures in the race. " TO GET THEIE EETENGE. Ohio Democrats Propose to Give Kepnbll- eaos Some of Their Otto Medicine. J SPECIAL TELEOBAM TO TEX DISFATCII.l Columbus, O., November 10. One of the first things the Ohio Democratic Legis lature will do this winter will be to redis trict the State for Congressional purposes. The apportionment of counties into Con gressional districts by the Republican Legislature, a few years ago, waa always called by the Democrats the most infamous gerrymander ever perpetrated on the peo ple of Ohio. At the last Presidental elec tion in this State there were 810,000 votes cast; for Harrison 430,000, and for Cleveland 410,000. Yet 430,000 "votes elected 15 Republican members of Congress, and 410,000 votes 6 Democrat!. members onlvt Thii tha" "Eennblicana thought was Terr cute. In fact, it was in- tended ie-aUew the iDeaocra fonrfflem-. bers only. Some of tbe districts ran almost from the lake to the river, way across-the State, from North to South, and the fact that "the law said the districts must be "continuous territory," stretched some of them into ludicrous shapes'. Democratic counties were thrown all together, and the majorities, in some of the Democratic districts were 10,000 and in others abont 8,000. If Ohio were redistricted to divide the State into about 11 Republican and 10 Democratic districts it would be fair. The probability is, however, that under a Democratic apportionment oi the districts' the Democrats will soon have a majority in the House of Representatives. INDIANS AS GITIZENS. ' Coramimioner Of organ Asserts That Sacs a Step Mast Soon be Taken Tribal Relations Mast be Abolished No More Idleness. Washington, November 10. Commis sioner of Indian Affairs Morgan, in his an nual report, says he entered upon the dis cbarge of the duties of his position with some strongly cherished convictions, which he epitomizes as follows: The anamolons position heretofore occupied by the Indians cannot mncb longer be main tained. Tbe logic of events demands the ab sorption of the Indian Into our national life, not as anjlndian,but as an American citizen. As soon as conservatism will warrant it tbe rela tions of tho Indian to the Government must rest solely upon the f nil recognition of his Individuality- Each Indian is entitled to his proper share of the inherited wealth of the tribe, and to the protection of the courts in life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. He isnot en titled to be supported In idleness. Tbjs Indians must conform to the white man's ways, peace ably If tbey will, forcibly if they must. They must adjust themselves to their environment and conform their mode of living substantially to our civilization. The paramount duty of the hour is to prepare tbe rising generation of tbs Indians for tbe new order of things thus forced upon them. The tribal relations snould be brolcen up, socialism destroyed, and the family and auton omy of the Individual substituted. Allotment of lands in severalty, establishment of local courts andf police, development of personal sense of Independence, and universal adoption of the English language are the means to this administration ot the bureau in tbe character of men and women employed to carry ont de signs of government. The best system maybe perverted to bad ends by incompetent or dishonest persons employed to carry it Into execution. while a very bad system may yield cock' results if wisely and honestly administered. The number of pupils at 147 Indian schools is 6,900, and the cost of maintaining these school tho past fiscal year was S&G9.07S. The work of carrying ont provisions of the eeneral allotment is progress ing as satisfactorily and rapidly as a dne re gard to the Indians will permit. Numerous cues hare been reported where whites bare taken possession of lands belonging to indi vidual Indians, and measures are nrged for their protection. The condition of the Indians at the several agencies is described as generally good. ASSISTING THE CR0MIN SUSPECTS. A Fond for Their Defense Raised at Meeting of Their Friends. Chicago, November 10.
