Allen O. Myers has exploded a bomb in the Ohio Democratic camp by declaring that the United States Senatorship now held by H. B. Payne is for sale. He calls on his party friends to rise aboTe a barter and re. fuse to let a rich man succeed a millionaire. His position on the Enquirer he has re signed, defying his employer, John B. Mc Ziean, to enter the Senatorial lists. fSPECIAl TELEOatM TO THB PISFATCII.1 Cincinnati, November 14. The reign ing sensation of to-lay has been a remark able speech made last evening by Allen O. Myers, the well-khown correspondent of the Enquirer, at a club reception tendered to Governor-elect Campbell last evening. Mr. Myers was at bis best, and during the course of his remarks, which were punctuated by applause and laughter, he divulged a lew Btate secrets, admitting that they were such. Among other things Mr. Myers said: "I speak to you as a man who has been using his voice and his pen in behalf ol the Democratic party tor 17 years. I want to est that I wear no man's collar and never did, and rather thin do so I would go into the streets with a pick and shovel. Cheers. I am here looking into the faces of a great many men, and all I ask is that yon think me honest in what X say. HAD ENOUGH OP JAIL. "I want no office. I would not accept one. The only thing I want is to keep out of jail. Laughter. I have 11 more days to serve, and here is my friend Jordan and my friend Baker, both of whom are lawyers looking for clients. Laughter.

Some of you are older than X, and some are younger. "But let me implore you not to vote for a millionaire for United States Senator. Loud cheers. Don't do it. Don't vote for Cal Brice, or John E. McLean or Thomas. The moment you send a million aire, to the United States Senate from Ohio, just that moment you beat the Democratic partyfortenyearstocome. Applause. The Senatorship is for sale. It's for sale, but there is something that is not for sale, and that is public sentiment. Don't sell the Senatorship this time. Don't let any man buy it Cheers. A. POOB MAN DKIffAyPEP. "Don't put it up at auction. Give it to a poor man. Applause. If you give the Senatorship to a rich man you will drive away from you for ten years those who have just contributed to yourmagnificent victory. Let the millionaires alone. They can wreck railroads in New York, but they cannot buy public sentiment Don't tie to them. As for myself, X am drawing a salary Irom one, but that does not prevent me Irom express ing myself. "I like the Young Men's Democratic Club for some things, and I suppose I have told more truths here to-night than have ever been told before in this clubhouse. X Vwant to say that if yon send a millionaire to he United States Senate, I will take the f tump against the Democratic party and try to defeat it, and I am as good a Democrat as ever lived. Loud cheering. Are you with me? A score of voices, 'Yes. ' Then I thank you. Good night." Long ap plause. HE MEANS -WHAT HE SAID. All day, in all political circles, Myers' speech was the sole topic of conversation. Pickaway's indepedcence is so well known that no one for a moment doubts his sincer ity. Republicans congratulated themselves over theinternecinefighthehad inaugurated among the Democrats, while the latter evi denced their uneasiness by getting Moss back Neal, Millionaire Thomas and Governor-elect Campbell into the city, where to-night they are in consultation with the local Legislative delegates. One charge of Myers produced another sensation. Someone asked him what he meant by his speech. "Just what I said," he replied, "and that is not all. To-day I sent McLean a message resigning my posi tion on the Enquirer, to take effect Satur day, or sooner, if he desired; and I told him, too," added Pickaway, "I'd had enough of his paper and the gang that hangs about it. Think of a decent man and I am decent, though I've been compelled to bear disgrace for others associating with Lew Bernard and that oily gang or youngsters. I won't do it, and I won't be compelled to do it any longer. I've been IK- JAIL FOB THIS CBOWD, while some ot them lived in palaces.

McLean won't be a candidate for United States Senator, and that isn't all he don't dare to be. I know what I'm talking about when I say this, and you solid men of Cincinnati remember what I say." Just what Allen is up to no one knows. Some of the knowing ones say that his state ment that McLean doesn't dare run for the Senate has referencltto 'the Columbus tally sheet forgeries, and that the bottom of that job will yet be reached. He declines at this time to explain, bat says it isn't impossible, or even improbable. TEUE TO HIS FAITH. O'Dynnmitc Rossa Organizes Another Band to Free Ireland by Force An Address Issued to the Fnlthfnl An En tirely New Organization. rSPECIAL TSXEGBAK. TO THE DISPATCH. N ew Yoek, November 14. A number of Irishmen who believe in using dynamite to bring about Ireland's freedom held meetings last week in Halcyon Hall, 537 Third ave nue. O'Donovan Rossa, who was one of them, pays that there were about 100 persons present, and that they came from Philadel phia, Pittsburg, New Haven, Bridgeport, Boston, "Worcester, Lynn, Brooklyn and this city. He says that their object in coming together was to consult upon the propriety of withdrawing from the organ izations which seek to tree Ireland by agita tion, and of goiug into the dynamite busi ness again. Bossa says it was decided to build up a new dynamite organization, to be called "United Irishmen." A committee ot 25 was appointed to draw up an address to the Irish people. This will occupy the iront page of Bossa's paper this week. In tne address is this: It is oar aim to help our struggling brothers across the water. The purpose of this appeal is to move you to help them in their hour of dire necessity. Thero are thousands of Irish men in Ireland and England, standing face to face with the foe, with the elements of destruc tion in their hands. There are thousands of other Irishmen, at home and abroad, whose blood would jump with joy at seeing the chance to repeat the heroic deeds of the men of Clerkenwell, Manchester. Phoenix Fart, Man chester Tower and Scotland Yard. Among the signers of the address are Bocky Mountain O'Brien, George Spear man, of this city; William Burke, of Brooklyn; John F. Kearney, who took Phelan, of Kansas City, to Bossa's office the dayPhelan was carved up by Dvnamite Dick Short; Edward Walsh, John'O'Shea and Michael Lane. Bossa said that already a number of clubs of the new organization had been formed.

The last day for filing affidavits under the anti-trust law closed to-night, amid a deluge of telegrams at the De partment of State. Over 300 affi davits reached Secretary Lesueure to-day, from various Missouri corporations, and it is now plainly evident that had the corporations appreciated the serious ness ot the situation two months ago, as they have during the past three days, not a single trust would have re mained to tell the tale. As it is, more than 700 corporations are' now subject to the penalty of the law, and the Secretary of State will proceed as rapidly as possible to revoke their charters, first by entering a decree of revocation upon the records of the department, and later by pub lishing the revocation in the columns of the lour largest newspapers in the State.

A Chicago Drninmer Quenches His Thirst In an Expensive Manner. JEFECIAI. TELEOBAU TO THE DI8FATCH.1 Buffalo, November 14. One-twentieth part of ticket 93 in a Southern lottery is held in Buffalo. It is worth $15,000, and the story of how it was obtained is a curious chapter in the story of accidents. About two weeks ago a Chicago drummer passed throush Buffalo, at a time when he was very hard up. Just before leaving the city early one morning he went to the saloon of Christian Meintz, 2G3 Michigan street, and got two drinks of whisky. He had no money to pay for the liquor, and after much haggling and several threats of having the drummer arrested, young Jacob Heintz, son of the proprietor, who was tending bar at the time, accepted the ticket and paid its holder 70 cents in change. When Heintz came to read the number of the ticket drawing the capital prize he was the most astonished man in Buffalo. He will go to New Orleans to-morrow to collect the money. WANTED FOR A MURDER.

The description given of the fellow, who gave his name as Charley Gibson, fitted him closely, but as he had been discharged in the morning, it was feared that he had made his escape.

The Simple Eulogy Pronouoced Over s Patrolman's Corpse by Hla Sergeant A Strange Deathbed Scene No Time Then for Hypocrisy. rSTECIAL TEtXQBAM TO TUB DISPATCn.1 New York, November 11 The funeral services of Patrolman Augustus M. De Nyse were held to-day at De Nyse's late residence. De Nyse was a man of unusual intelligence and ability. He was an agnostic, and he requested on his deathbed that instead of the usual religious services, Police Sergeant Oliver Tims deliver an address over his cof fin. Sergeant Tims is a man of strong re ligious convictions, and is a member of the Episcopal Church. De Nyse became aware of a heart trouble about four months ago. He knew he was going to die, and he made all his arrange ments accordingly. On Tuesday night, the evening of De Nyse's death, Sergeant Cro nin called upon him. The Sergeant is a deacon in the church, and gently referring to De Nyse's belief, he asked the latter if he should not moke his peace with God. "No, John," said De Nyse; "it's no time for hypocrisy now." De Nyse sank into a quiet sleep after Cronin went away. About 11 o'clock he started up in bed, with eyes wide open. "I hear two raps," he said. This is the signal with which a roundsman calls the jioliceman from his beat Then De .Nyse fell back, dead, on his pillow. Sergeant Tims was a little embarrassed at being asked to deliver the address. He and De Nyse had always been warm friends, and had conversed often upon religious and literarySubjects. He finally decided to de liver the address. Sergeant Tims said: The occasion is full of interest, and I regret that I have not had time to put in proper form what I should say. Iwonld like to ignore all cold and. formal words and speak of the dead in a spirit of truo tenderness and sympathy. When great preachers deliver -discourses by the biers of the nch and powerful, or even of those of humble life, they are disposed to eulogize the virtues of the departed, some times at the expense of truth, and to gloss over facts unpleasant to hear. Many people are disposed to nnd fault with this, and with those lean take no issue. But all will agree that It is best to speak tenderly of those who are gone those who cannot speak for them selves, and by this man's coffin I will not have to invent any adjectives. Augustus W. De Nyse was a simple, unassuming, unpretentious man, perfectly honest, perfectly true. He bated imposture. He loved trnth for the sake of truth. He never crawled, or cringed, or cowered. He was not a hypocrite or a dissem bler. These arc the features of his life his comrades recognized. THE TARIFF Off W00IT Famishes the Sabject for a Heated Dis cussion at the Farmers' Congress Some Action Will be Taken Upon the Matter. Montgomery, Ala., November 14. The second day's session of the Farmers' Congress was well attended. At the morn ing session, Judge Lawrence of Ohio, Presi dent of the Wool Growers' Association, from a majority of the Committee on Reso lutions, reported a resolution demanding that in case of a continuance of the protect ive policy, all farm products shall be as fully protected as any article of manufacture. Mr. Wilhite, of Missouri, offered a minority report pledging the farmers of the United States to a reduction of the tariff, and to a change of duties from the necessaries to the luxuries of life as far as possible. Both re ports were laid over. Hon. L. S. Coffin, of Iowa, delivered an address on railroads and their relations to the farmer. The speaker was sharply criti cised by a number of delegates as being too much in sympathy with railroads and cor porations Judge, iawrence, read a paper on' wool growing and mutton producing, and urging protection for this- interest Judgcfxsreiioc's -addr'ecs way followed by some adverse discussion. One delegate cited an instance of an investment of $1,057 in sheep .which paid a profit of over 40 per cent in one year, which, he said, placed this industry beyond the need of a protective tariff. Many speeches were delivered by dele gates from the Nbrth and West, all advocat ing wool protection. There is prospect ot a regular tariff debate to-morrow on the mi nority and majority reports of the Commit tee on Besolutions. Hon. James A Mc Kenzie, of Kentucky, will probably replv to Judge Lawrence. The voting is by Con gressional representation, and the delega tions from Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan and Indiana are practically solid for Judge Lawrence's report Ex-Congressman Wei ler, of Iowa, is opposed to it SORT OF A FREE MUSEUM. One of the Pan-American Delegates De scribes a Philadelphia Reception. tFEOM A STAFF COBBESFONDENT. Washington', November 14. The for eign delegates to the Pan-American Con gress corroborate nearly everything that has been said in regard to their reception at the Union League Club in Philadelphia. One of the most prominent of them said to-day in regard to it: "" 1 went there as escort to a couple of ladles, and, of course, we went in fall evening cos tame. After we bad disposed of onr wraps and overcoats we were conducted upstairs ana placed in rows in an inclosure roped off so that any attempt to escape would be futile. There we stood while a crowd of 2.000 or 3.000 sauntered by. What was the crowd composed off Well. I suppose some of them were nice people all of them, may be but the women were in street costumes, and they invariably wore their bats and bonnets. The club men, of coarse, wore dress suits, bat the great majority of men in that perambulating, carious crowd, were clad in business suits. Naturally, that was astonlsning, but it was as nothing when compared with the foolish, farcical inclusiveness or ignorance, or what ever it was that made introductions Impossible. We stood in a row like wax Assures, and this crowd of inopportunely attired Pbiladclphians walked past us and made remarks as to our personal appearance, and the evident similar ity which existed between the features ot Korth and South Americans. It would not have surprised me if some one had poked a finger in my ribs ana said: "Well, he's in pretty good condition." I don't know that one of the ladies in the party was introduced to one of the fair ones of Philadelphia, and the whole thing completely upset my ideas of what constituted a reception: it was run on the plan of a dime museum, only the audience did not have to disburse a cent. A HIGHTI MEAN TUIEF. In Two months Ho Stole 85,000 Worth of Valaables at Funeral. rSFXCIAl. TELEOBAM TO TlIE DISFATCIM St. Louis, November 14. Detectives to day arrested the celebrated funeral thief who has been operating here with great suc cess for two months. During that time he has stolen 55,000 in cash and jewelry from homes where death is a visitor. Among those who attended to mourn with the be reaved at recent funerals was one whose suit of customary solemn black was of the finest texture, his shirt front always immaculate and his black tie of the most prim variety. His presence excited ,no surprise. He was supposed to be an acquaintance of the de ceased, perhaps an old friend who had come to pay his last respects. He always declined, with thanks, any invitation to follow the funeral cortece to the grave, and would dis appear at about the time the services were over and the casket was being taken from the bouse. When the bereaved family re turned to the house of mourning, however, they invariably discovered drawers thrown open, closet doors ajar, and every article of value that was there missing, with no clew to the thief. Altogether more than 30 robberies have been reported. This morning the solemn thief was Captured in the house of Mrs. Hare, on Mound street, just after a funeral. The officers concealed themselves in the house. He gave his name as Paul Barton.

There was nothing but good feeling, seemingly, in the K. of L. General Assem bly yesterday. If anything was done about the case of Joseph L. Evans, the proceed ings were so carefully guarded that the secret didn't get out Forty-one amend ments and resolutions affecting the constitu tion have been adopted. fSPECTAL TELEOBAM TO THE DISFATCIM Atlanta, Ga., November 14. This morning found the delegates to the General Assembly, Knights of Labor, all in high glee because of the warm welcome extended them last night, and because the McGaw bugaboo has been disposed of. Exclama tions of pleasure and surprise are heard on every hand. Everything tends to make this meeting one of the most pleasant and profit able held for years. Action has been ta&en on 41 resolutions or amendments to the Constitution of the order, many of them very important, as they will work radical changes. On the part of some there is a tendency to a cen tralization of power; but this is carefully guarded against by the conservatives, who are giving the local assemblies more dis cretionary powers. Most of the recommenda tions of the Law Committee have been con curred in. THE LAND QUESTION COSIINO UP. I Ladies representing the Women's Chris tian Temperance Union were admitted, and fraternal courtesies exchanged, this after noon. The land question is to be the order of the day on Monday. Several delegates arrived to-day. Knowing ones declare that the educa tional work will be amply provided for, and that printed matter will be liberally dis tributed and depended upon as an educating power. The order undoubtedly expects to take a new lease on life at this session of the General Assembly. The morning session of the convention of the Knights of Labor was devoted to re ceiving and discussing the report of the Committee onLaws, which is uninteresting to the general public. A Committee on Mileage consisting of Geraughty, of Colorado; Boss, of Pittsburg, and Eigenbise, of Penn sylvania, were appointed. A Committee on Secret Work was appointed, as follows: Griffith, of Illinois; Davis, of Kansas; Miss Dormehoo, of New Jersey, and O'Connor, of New York. f OPEN DISCUSSION fob all. It was decided that on Saturday the Con vention shonld go into committee of the. whole on the state pf the order, givingevetyy, delegate an opportunitytorcaeking- all -thin questions they desired, and of making any statements they wish to make. To-morrow aiternoon the roll of assem blies will be called for the last time for the presentation of resolutions and documents. It is probable that Colonel L. F.' Livings ton, President of the Farmers' Alliance of the State, will address the convention to morrow, on the subject of uniting the forces of the Georgia agriculturists with those of her laboring men. The aiternoon session was devoted to an address from Miss Mis souri Stokes, a prominent W. C. T. U. leader of Georgia. SULLI STICKS TO HIS PEICE.

The Dis patch correspondent ound the champion at Billy Hogarty's, this afternoon, with Dan Murphy and two or three other friends. He had read McCaffrey's screed, and when asked what he thought of it replied : "It is not worth considering. I have given McCaffrey my answer, and I shall stick to it It he has not friends enough who have confi dence in his ability to lick me, and who will back him or $10,000, then he won't get a chance at me. I thing every body who knows both of us can tell who is bluffing. I say plainly that I don't think he is in my class. I don't want to bother with him, anyway. If he's got nerve enough to tackle me, he's got to make it worth my while. "I'm the champion, and I've whipped him once. He has not improved any since, so it would not pay me to waste, time on him, unless there was enough money in sight If he is anxious for a fight, why don't he tackle the 'Marine?'

Frye's Pacific Railway Investigating Com mittee, consisting of himself, Chairman; Senator H. L. Dawes, of Massachusetts; Senator O. H. Piatt, of Connecticut, and Senator David Turpie, of Indiana, has com pleted an examination ot nearly 10,000 tnllfs of Pacific Toads. The above members of, the committee reached the citr this afternoon. Senators Piatt and Turnie left for thei homes this evening, and Senators Frye and Dawes leave to-morrow for the East Chair man Frye said this evening that the trip had resulted in one good thing at least. "It has removed several obstacles from the path of our future work," he said, "and the committee is now convinced that the roads can pay their debts to the Govern ment in full. They can't do it at once, and I suppose nobody cares whejher it is done at once or not, but they can do it event ually, and the committee is satisfied on this point Personally, I do not think it would be best that they paid it at once. The peo ple along the lines are the ones who must eventually pay the debts, of course. It would not be to their interest to push the payment" "Do you believe the management of the roads contemplate a surrender of the roads?" "No. decidedly, and neither would any one who made "a trip over (he lines. Im provements, and expensive ones, are going on everywhere. At Leavenworth the Union Pacific is putting up shops worth $500,000. That don't look much like a surrender. Heavy new steel rails are being put down. I don't think they wonld do that if they meant to give up the roads." "I learned a surprising thing," con tinued the Senator, "why the Central Pa cific has never been profitable. If that road could get its coal as cheap as Eastern roads it could pay its national debt without any trouble. I rode over it from Ogden to San Francisco, and then north and south from that point, in all about 1,200 or 1,500 miles, and tound in all that distance that the road nowhere touches a coal field. They cannot get a bushel of coal that does not come from the East, and much of it is from Australia and New Zealand. On an average it costs the road between $7 and $8 a ton, and last year 900,000 tons were used. Think of that, nearly $ 7.000,000 for coal." AN IMPOBTANT POINT. A New York Jndge Called on to Decide a Knotty Question A Device That Mights Settle Many a Fight for Dead Men's Riches. rSFXCTAI. TELEOBAK TO THE DI3PATCH.1 New Yoek, November 14. In the batch of decisions handed down by the general term of the Supreme Court, a few days ago, was one affirming Judge O'Brien's decision in favor of Charles E. O'Connor as receiver for Herbert Foote Beecher, in his suit against the Mechanics Bank of Brooklyn. Henry Ward Beecher's will left to his son Herbert one-quarter of his personal estate, the share amounting to $5,600. A part of this was paid to Mrs. Beecher, the legatee and mother, and a check for the rest (2,286 92) upon the Mechanics' Bank, where the estate was de posited, was sent to Herbert Beecher at Port Townsend, Wash., where he was Col lector of the Poj tt Meantime, a Mr. Chase had secured a judgment against Beecher for $500 for street car advertistoff for Herbert Foote Beecher & Co., young Beecher having engaged in the soap manufacturing business under that name, in 1879, and failed. The judg ment was taken by default. The executors of Henry Ward Beecn er's estate relnsed to pay it and Chase thereupon had secured the ap pointment of Lawyer O'Connor as receiver, and O'Connor obtained a writ of attachment against the,money in the bank. The board refused to recognize any responsibility on its part in the matter, and when the check came back from Port Townsend with Her bert Beecher's indorsement they honored it Judge O'Brien's decision, now reaffirmed by the general term, holds the bank re sponsible for the amount of Mr. Chase's j udgment, and it will have to stand the loss, unless the decision is upset on appeal. The legal point involved is an important one, as it makes it possible for judgment creditors to attach trnst funds in a bank or other depository, by the device of securing the appointment of a receiver, suing in the name of the debtor, having a right of action against the trust fund that a creditor wonld not have.

Washington, November 14. Secretary Windcm informed the correspondent of The Dispatch late this afternoon that he could not find time to-day to take np the papers in the case of the Jeannetto'-glass workers, and he feared he would not now be able to give them the consideration they demanded previous to his finishing his an nual report. In the preparation of that paper the Secretary has become so deeply immersed that he can hardly be induced to isten to anything aside from it The prospects are, therefore, that the Jcannettc case will now lie untouched for some days on the desk of the Secretary.

A frightful accident occurred at Middle Creek Colliery, near Tremont, to-day, by which four men will lose their lives. Middle Creek shaft is operated by the Beading Coal and Iron Company, and is one of the most gaseous mines in'the Schuylkill region. A blast fired in a breast yesterday cut and ig nited a "leader," and this fired a large quantity of loose coal lying in the breast, and threatened the de struction of the mine. A force of 15 men were out at work last night to ex tinguish the flames, and while they were at work at an early hour this morning a mass of coal fell, burying four of their number-in the fare of the burning breast - The remaining 11 went heroically to work to rescue the bodies pf their comrades, which now threatened to be consumed by the fire, and although several of their number were overcome "by the gas, they continued at work until reinforemeuts went to them and finally reached the poor fellows, who were buried beneath the coal. To their astonishment they found them all alive, but so badly burned and injured that they can not recover. The names ot the victims are Francis Klaien, John Jones, Henry Knau ber and Thomas Jones. THE MONTANA ELECTION MUDDLE. Two Ktval Courts Are Holdlnff Sessions In the Disputed Country. Helena, November 14. The election muddle in Silverbow connty is growing worse daily. Tuesday Judge Dewolfe re tired from the office and McHatton, Demo crat, who is elected by counting the Tunnel precinct, took the chair. He also recognized as the Sheriff of the county Sullivan, the Democrat candidate, whose chase was analo gous to his own. Lloyd, who was the old Sheriff, and who was the Republican candi date at the last election and claims that he was elected by the throwing outof the Tunnel Erecinct, refused to surrender the keys of is office and the jail to Sullivan. Tn-Hnv the habeas corpus cases of the two men under indictment for dynamiting were called up by Judge McHatton, but Lloyd refused to surrender the prisoners to Sulli van, who was directed to produce them in court Hamilton, the contesting Judge, opened another court, "and Bloyd brought prisoners before him.

'WASHINoS&j'oveml)el, 14. With the President absemr duck shooting on Chesa peake Hay, and with only a few members of Congress in town, the capital exhibits al most as great a dearth of stirring events and important people as in midsummer. All of the candidates for the Speakership were ex pected to reach town this week, but none .are now to be found except Cannon and Henderson. McKinley dropped down for a day and went to New York. Barrows is lecturing up in New England, in Beed's legitimate bailiwick, and Eeed himself, the big gun of all, is a silent and invisible 'as thougfThe were not in existence. The Clerk of the House of Representatives says that only 'about 40 members lave ordered their mail sent to the capital, and that is an in fallible indication of the number who are here or expect to be within a tew days. There is nothing new in the Speakership that can be rclied upon. The friends of each of the candidates who are on the ground are doing frhat they can for their favorites, but if they know anything defi nite they are not telling it Colonel Bayne is putting in bis best strokes for Eeed. and apparently with satisfactory results, judg- tain that if the situation does not materially change, Beed will hove practically the solid vole 6f the Republicans of the Penn sylvania' delegation. It is stated, by ap parently good authority, that Hon. John Dalzell, who was reported to be for Mc Kinley, is n supporter of Beed. Senator Quay said to The Dispatch correspondent that he wag taking no part in the contest for the Speakership, and, person ally, knew nothing about it, but he had been told thai-Reed was ahead. It seemed to him i that both Beed and McKinley were needed on the floor, but he did not propose, to talk for or against them or any ooaefis- It is rare that so tew members of the House are to be found in the city the 'middle of No vember when the opening of Congress is close at hand. This maybe explained, par tially, at least, by the fact that all expect a prolonged session, and they therefore desire to delay their coming to as late a day as possible. Lightnee. EEFOEMEGS IN A SOW! The Greenbackers and Prohibitionists Clash In a Joint Convention. Chicago, November 14. That the Uni versal Reformers' Convention has elements of discord in it was shown at the opening this morning. Then Calvin, the Michigan Greenbacker, at once jumped to his feet and declared that there had been some under handed business done in the Committee on Besolutions, and he charged Mr. Dickey, the Prohibitionist, with deception. He said that Mr. Dickey declared to him that there wonld be a good financial plank in the address to be promulgated, end con tinued: "I'll donate 810 to this convention if it can be proved that the money question was even discussed. If you ddn't give us better satisfaction," thundered Mr. Calvin,, we will pull ont and form an association of our own and hold a conveatioa by our selves." Mrs. -Todd, also a Greenbacker, thought the tiase was ripe to give ' the, oosvea-tion a swUjwd lw ru'A;tW;-rw the se4Jsratid declared that the Greenback- ten Present had itin.their power to disband tne convention. "Ana we'll do it too, if you don't watch out," she eriedi Finally, however, peace was restored, and the re mainder of the session was devoted to speeches on varions reform topics.
