;rs0K A STAFF COBRESFONDKTr.l
"Washington, January 3. There is
danger of another ruction in the Pension
Bureau on account of tbe arbitrary manner
in which medical examining clerks and
medical referees override the decisions
of the local examining boards, but the au
thrities of the Interior Department have
made so many mistakes already that tbey
are inclined to go slow in further attempts
to reform. The five clerks were asked to
resign on account of their baviug been re
rated, who were asked to return the amount
of back pension received, and whose regu
lar pensions were suspended without
legal authority for the purpose of
reimbursing the Government to the extent
of the back pension, are still at their desks,
and for long weeks not a word has been
heard in regard to their removal. They
vrere asked to resign Tbey absolutely're
fused. Thev were given, it was said, a short
time in which to show cause why they
should not be removed.
NO ACTION TAKEN.
They presented theircases, have heard of
no action being taken, and are not asked to
resign. Apparently there was nothing to
justify their removal, but their pensions are
still in suspense, and maimed, limbless, war
worn veterans are deprived of the monthly
pay awarded to them tor their sufferings in
the service.
Tbe best attorneys who have looked into
the matter say there is not a shadow of legal
authority for the suspension of pension, and
that the department does it violently because
it has the power. As to the conduct of
some of the medical clerks, there is
so much complaint that it is hardly
possible, but some rule will be made to
govern them, at the very least. They set at
defiance all reports of local examining
boards appointed to investigate cases lor
granting or rerating pensions, without
knowing anything of the cases except tes
timony flemished, upon which the local
boards make their report.
THEIE IDEAS OF DUTY.
These clerks, in a majority of instances,
with scarcely any examination or the testi
mony, scale down the amounts recommend
ed by the local boards in the interests of
economy. They seem to think their
duty is to prevent and scale down pen
sions. One McMillan, of the Board of Medi
cal referees, is said to be especially enthusi
astic in this performance of his imaginary
duty, and he, especially, has in
curred the displeasure of claim
ants, of local medical examiners of
Congressmen whose constituents beg them
to interfere in tbetr pension cases, and of
attorneys who are engaged in tbe prosecu
tion ot pension claims.
"While some of the stories about him and
bis fellow referees are doubtless exaggerated,
enough is substantiated to arouse tbe De
partment to a ronviction that something
must be done with these clerks, Borne of
whom are Democrats who were instructed
in their economical policy under a former
administration. Lightnee.
THE MEERY WAR BEGUN.
End of tbo First Skirmish, With Mrs. BIcKee
the Victor.
tSPXCIAT. TFLErEAM TO THB BISFATCU.J
"Washington, January 3. Th:.s ad
ministration has lully established the fact
that it holds the Harrison family in very
high esteem. If it is Father-in-Law
Sanders who wants a seat in the Senate,
or Mrs. McKee who wants to outrank all
the Cabinet ladies at the "White Honse re
ception, the wish is granted, if the adminis
tration has any voice in the matter,"which it
thinks ithas." The fact that denials were sent
out from the "White House that such a thing
was contemplated, did not prevent the Presi
dent from giving his daughter precedence
over the wife of the "Vice President, Mrs.
Blaine, and the other Cabinet ladies at
the New Year reception. Mrs. McKee
stood at the head of the line,
and tbe President answered the
objection to this arrangement, which was
brought to bis attention in a semi-official
manner, that she should stand there "if it
busted the Cabinet." In his earnestness he
actually used the word "bnsted."
The wife of the Chief Justice was crowded
ont of the line altogether, the Cabinet
ladies were none of them well pleased
with the arrangement, and the note
of discontent was heard many times
during the reception, if the reports of those
wbo stood near the receiving party are to be
credited. So the merry war has begun, and
the first battle has ended in a victory for the
mother of Baby McKee.

by the Department.
FE0M A STATF COEREErOKEENTJ
"Washington, January 3. Attorney
General Miller said to the correspondent of
The Dispatch, to-day, that there had
been no change in the status of the case of
tbe Jeannette class workers since the hear-
ing two weeks ago, and he did not know
that the Government contemplated anv
change of base, though he had nothing defi
i nite to say on that point.
A COKTBACT WITH CAENEGIE.

WHO IS HAMILTON ALTON?
A Man Killed on the I. &W. Road Supposed
to be Implicated In the Tarentnm Mur
der Ills Partner Disappeared.
A. F. Cline, a prominent quarry owner of
Forrest Grove, Pa., on the Pittsburg and
Western road, called at the Allegheny
Mayor's office last night for the purpose of
ascertaining something about a man who
was killed at Langton station Sunday even
ing last and who it is supposed had some
connection with the Tarentum murder.
According to the story told by Mr. Cline
to the police officials, the man whose name
was afterward found out to be Hamilton
Alton arrived at Langtou station about 6:30
o'clock. He was under the influence of
liquor at the time, and, in a swaggering
way, asked for a chew of tobacco. He was
told by the party addressed that tie did not
have any tobacco, when Alton said: "Give
me a chew, or I will knife you." He was
told to "get out," and went away cursing.
He went into the hotel near the station,
kept by a man named Fisher, who chased
the stranger out of his bouse. He came
back to where Mr. Cline was talking to
Thomas Carson, the contractor, of Alle
gheny, and said: "I have been the cause of
one man being hung, and would be hung
myself bnt they could not kill me." This
strange speech, muttered in an incoherent
manner, startled the two gentlemen. Think
ing it was the wild ramblings of a drunken
man's mind, they paid no attention to him.
The, man then walked down the railroad
track toward "Wnrtemburg station. After
he got out of sight, the whistle of No. 17
train was heard, announcing the approach
to the station. There is a long trestle near
the place, which Mr. Cline thought of. It
fiishcd through his mind that the man
must be about on the trestle. He started
along the track, and sure enough, he
catne upon the body of the stranger
lying close to the track, but beyond the
trestle. Securinsr the assistance of a
Mr. Allison, Mr. Cline picked up the body
and carried it back to the station. They
then discovered that the man had a partner,
who was found under a tree asleep.. The
latter was aroused and said the dead man
lived in Pittsburg, where he had a sister
living. He volunteered to go after his dead
friend's sister, wbo it was said lived on the
Southside. He was furnished with money
to pay bis transportation and started on his
way to the city. This was the last seen of
him.
The body of the dead man was washed
and dressed and placed in a coffin to
await the arrival of the supposed sister.
'Squire John WiUon, of Franklin township,
Beaver county, held an inquest on the re
mains. The latter were kept until Tuesday,
when they were interred in the old Baptist
cemetery at North Sewickley.
Several people who saw the two men say
they bore some resemblance to the descrip
tions sent out of the two white men who
committed the Tarentum murder and rob
bery nearly two weeks ago. The men looked
as if they had been traveling along country
roads an'd were much fatigued. What be
came of the one who started to Pittsburg to
look for the sister is a mystery.
THE ELECTRICAL STORM.
The Whole Force of Organized Labor to be
Brought Within lis Fore Not Beatea
Yet.
The strike among the electricians is un
changed. The employes of the Keystone
Construction Company who went out when
ordered have been replaced by other men.
The lighting of the city was as usual, and
no hitch was anywhere observable.
TJhe Electrical Union held a meeting last
night. It was attended by men who still
continue in their respective jobs, and who
explained why they thought it advisable to
do so. The reasons were accepted as satis
factory. A number of committees were ap
pointed to visit th,e various organizations
and lay before them a statement of their
reasons for striking. A list of grievances
has been prepared and presentation of it to
Trades Council will be made to-night. Some
strong action by this body is looked for when
the matter comes up for consideration. The
German Trades Council will have the
matter up before it on Sundav. and
every national, international and";
Brotherhood of Traaes attached to the Fed
eration of Labor having local unions in the
city and county will be duly apprised of the
condition oi affairs. Representations will
also be made to the Knights of Labor and
their moral support and sympathy enlisted
in the struggle, as will also those of other
associations not affiliated with organized
bodies.
It is thought that some direction may be
received from President Gompers to-day in
relation to the matter. It is claimed by the
strikers that some of the union men are
waiting orders from headquarters belore
coming off. It is also claimed by them that
they have plenty of fnnds and arenot afraid
of a lengthened lockout A financial com
mittee has been appointed to look to the
monetary end of the tussle. This word is
hardly misapplied, as tbe indications are
sufficient that the strikers by no means re
gard themselves as beaten, and are fully de
termined to enter upon a regular campaign
upon the points at issue.
The Keystone Construction Company yes
terday discharged and will pav off their
men this morning. Secretary McGnnnegle,
of the Allegheny County Light Company,
stated yesterday that tbe company bad men
in the places ot the strikers, and there would
be no trouble. He said: "We can get
more men than you can shaka stick at."

The Barnwell lynching is drawing the

gation of colored men waited on Governor
Bichardson yesterday. They asked for
justice, and was told it was his aim to see
they got it -Senator "Wade Hampton was
present, and reiterated the views expressed
by Governor Bichardson.
rSPECTAL TZI.IO ram to tub sisrATcn.
Columbia, S. C, January 3. At 12
o'clock to-day Governor Bichardson was
waited upon by 16 colored men, appointed
at the convention last night to present an
address and ask the Governor to use every
effort to seenre the punishment of the Barn
well lynchers. The Governor met the
delegation at the door, and asked them
into bis private office. "When they were
seated, General Lee, of Charleston, stated
the objectof the visit He outlined the posi
tion of the colored people, and said that the
negroes had serious complaint to make
against many of the whites ot the State who
believed that any treatment of the negroes
that would impress him with the white
man's superior power in a conflict of force
was justifiable.
Irresponsible whites, said the General,
had imbibed the idea that the negroes had
no rigbts that they are bound to respect.
He continued:
THE BUTCHEBY CONDEMNED.
"The inhuman butchery of eight men at
Barnwell, in tbe presence of agents of the
law, is an unprecedented instance of bar
barity unbecoming a civilized community,
and they appealed to the Governor, and to
all citizens, regardless of race and color, to
unite in a common, effort to uphold the
majesty of the law and the fair name o'f
South "Carolina."
The Governor then addressed the delega
tion for 15 minntes. He assured them that
not one of their number more deeply re
gretted the horrible murders at Barnwell
than he, nor could anyone condemn it
more strongly. It was a most brutal
and horrible murder, and every good
citizen of the State must condemn
it He gave them his sacred word that
nothing that he could do to have condign
finnishment reach the lynchers wonld be
eft undone. He only regretted that in this
case the executive arm was not long enough
or strong enough. Snch lawlessness must
and shall stop. The good people of the
oiaie win rise up uuu uiuau iud uti.jr.
THE KACES NOT RESPONSIBLE.
In conclusion, the Governor thanked the
colored people of the State for their noble
and most commendable conduct in the
whole matter. He did not hola the
race reponsible for a few hot
headed and misguided negroes, and
would expect the negroes not to
judge the whites by a few men who did not
represent their race. The whites of the State
were with the negroes in this matter, and
they appreciated the conservative, dignified
and proper conduct of their colored friends.
"While the Governor was talking, Senator
Hampton entered the chamber, and as the
delegation rose to depart he rose to his feet
and said that he had not heard all'
that Governor Bichardson had said, but that
be had already talked with him on the sub
ject and fully coincided in all his opinions,
and that they could consider the expres
sions from the Governor as representing his
views on the subject
MADE AN IMFBESSION.
The delegation thanked the Governor for
his assurances of assistance, and after shak
ing hands with Senator Hampton and Gov
ernor Bichardson, took their departure.
Tbe whole conduct of tbe negroes was most
dignified, and made a great impression on
the Governor.
There were several preachers here to-day
from Barnwell. One of them said he was
snre that four of the men lynched for mur
dering Martin were innocent They were
members of his church. Martin was an
aristocrat, and was hated by tbe poor
whites, but he had always been kind
to tbe negroes, and tbey loved him. This
preacher did not believe in tbe negroes leav
ing the State. They should stay right here.
If the daily papers expressed themselves as
often as they did this week, outrages would
cease, and there would be peace. He hoped
the negroes wonld strive for peace, and that
the pulpi- of both races would make open
war on the lawless.

Coldmbus, O., January 3. Mr. John
Henry Thomas, who is a very affable indi
vidual, was working hard personally all
day, and bis many able lieutenants were do
ing likewise. Mr. Martindell, the chief
of these, furnishes figures, as follows:
"We claim for Mr. Thomas about
30 votes on the first ballot It
requires 40 to nominate, and we have more
than enongh pledges of second choice to as
sure us of ten more. Not only will there
not be a solid Northwest for Mr. Brice, but
we shall get six or seven votes in Mr.
Brice's own territory. Mr. Brice has about
23 votes, and will have them on the first
ballot Mr. Thomas leads him, and has a
bic second choice to draw from."
The Brice men smile at the claims made
to-night by Mr. Martindell and the other
Thomas workers. A prominent friend of
Mr. Brice said that he would lay a wager
that Mr. Thomas would not have 20 votes on
the first ballot.
.Mr. McMahon, the last of the three prom
inent candidates to arrive, came in about
noon, and has instituted a vigorous canvass.
He has no figures tt make public as yet,
however.
"While the general feeling here to-night is
that Brice will eventually win, there are
evidences of" desperate struggle. There is
not a chance that anybody will be nomi
nated on the first ballot, and probably not
before several have been taken.
Hon. Frank C. Dougherty, of Kentucky,
came in last night to use his influence
against Mr. Brice. He is preparing a docu
ment in the form of a leeal brief, setting
forth that Mr. Brice is ineligible as a can
didate for United States Senator from Onio,
being a resident of New York, and will make
it public to-morrow. Bancboft.
ALLEGHENY ASKS A TEST.
The Fire Committee Wanti the Siliby to Try
Conclusions With the Amoikeas A Let
ter to Chief Brown.
Tbe issue between the Amoskeag and
Silsby fire engines was taken up at the
.meeting of the Allegheny Fire Committee
last night. Mr. McGeary submitted, for
the approval ot the committee, the following
proposed letter:
JUr. J. O. Brown, Chief of the Department of
Public bafety, Pittsburg:
Deae Sib As there has been a great deal of
discussion in the public press and also among
tbe Board of Underwriters regarding tbe
merits of the steam fire engines used in the Fire
.Department oi tnis city ana yonr own, ana as
this discussion has been kept up until the citi
zens of both cities have become deeply inter
ested, tbe Committee on Fire Department of
the City of Allegheny would respectfully make
to you tbe following proposition: We will play
pno ot our Silsby engines against one of yonr
Amoskeag engines of equal size and weight
allowing, say, oOO pounds difference in weight
Tbe terms of the contest are as follows:
First Both engines to be weighed on tbe city
Bcales before tbe test begins.
Second Tbe steam and water eauges of both
entrines to be tested belore tbe contest begins.
intra steam on Dotn engines to De limited
to 120 pounds.
Fourth The engines to be started with SO
ponnds steam pressure.
Fifth Both engines to be placed side by side,
draught their water, and to play two hours
tbrougb a Vi Inch nozzle and two hours
tbrougb a 1-inch nozzle.
Sixth The same size of hose to be used by
both engines, hose to be siamesed or single, as
may be agreed upon.
Sevontb Tbe judgesfor the test to be ap
pointed as follows: One to be appointed by
the Chief of tbe Department of Public Safety,
one by tbe Chief Engineer of tbe city of Alle
gheny, and the two appointed by these officials
to appoint tbe third.
When the letter had been read Mr. Ru
dolph said that Allegheny had both the
Amoskeag and the Silsby engines, and
knew which was best He did not see what
was to be eained by the test.
Mr. Hartman said that the question had
been agitated and the Allegheny people
wanted to convince Pittsburg that she does
not possess the kind of machinery she ought
to nave. Property holders want to Know
which is the best engine and to get good fire
protection.
Mr. Voegler suggested that the proposi
tion beleft open for all companies. If there
be a better engine than either the Amos
keag or Silsby they would find it out The
test should be a severe one, and if anything
is to break they wanted it to break in the
test and not ot a fire.
Major "W. G. McCandless, President of
the Board of Underwriters, was present,
and, on invitation, made a few remarks. He
said he thought tbe test would be a nublic
advantage aud of interest to the people. It
was desired to find out which was the best
engine and the test would decide it
Mr. Gerwig said his idea of a test was to
take an engine right out of the engine
house as it would go to a fire, and not a new
engine from the shops.
President Hunter favored the test, and
suggested Edward Armstrong as a good man
fcr Allegheny's representative on the Com
mittee ot .Reference.
Major McCandless suggested that all con
ditions be left to the three jndges, and with
this understanding a motion to in.vite the
test was pas'sed, the time and place being
left to Chiefs Brown and Jones.
The committee approved an estimate for
the annual expenses of the fire department,
amounting to 593,201, about '$2,000 over last
year.
Ob, bnt How Kanfronnns Did Wake Up the
Clonk Dealers!
The announcement several days ago of
Eaufmanns' great January reduction sale
stirred up the other "lellers" to such a high
pitch of excitement that every mother's son
of them now advertise a similar sale. Of
course, thev never made a single reduction,
but, then, they've got a "sale" in tbe pacers,
you know. Thanks to the intelligence of
tne ladies of Pittsburg, however, these imi
tators will derive mighty little benefit from
their stolen thunder, for everybody in search
of genuine reductions will flock to Kauf.

who were killed while on an employment
agency's wild goose chase. The jury con
demns Geisler, the agent.
The Coroner yesterday completed his in
quests on the deaths of "W. H. Angel and
Albert Stern, who were killed at tbe Shonse-
town bridge, on New Year's Day, and the
jury orougni :n a scaiuiug veraicw
Mr. Bickert, the oil-drilling contractor at
Shannopin, testified that he had no work
for extra men and that August P. Geisler,
the employment agent, at No. 610 Grant
street, had no authority from him to send
out men.
The jury then brought in a verdict of ac
cidental death on the Pittsburg and Lake
Erie Bailroad, near Shousetown. It found
that August P. Geisler was responsible for
sending the men out on a fruitless errand,
after taking their money from them. The
jury found Geisler guilty of inhuman con
duct, aud recommended that his case be
taken up by the District Attorney and that
he be prosecuted for manslaughter. The
jury recommended that there should be a
thorough investigation of the employment
agents of the city, to the endthat the bogus
agents should be weeded out and that there
should be such legislation as would compel
all persons desiring to conduct 'agencies to
procure licenses from the Department of
Public Safety.
ADVISED GOING SLOW.
Geisler has not been arrested, and no in
formation has yet been made against him.
On Wednesday evening, when Inspector
McAleese called upon Magistrate Gripp
with a view of making an information
against Geisler, the Magistrate said: "Geis
ler has been before me a number of times,
and has been fined or held to court He
has been convicted in court of bad practices,
but has escaped with a small fine. If it is
desired to punish him severely in this case,
it would be well to go slow until you have
the strongest sort of evidence against him."
Inspector McAleese has therefore decided
to wait for a few days until he makes an in
formation. He has already some very se
rious evidence against Geisler and is in tbe
way to get more. Me concluded, in fact,
that he would not need Max Malterer, the
boy who was with the unfortunate men who
were killed, and for that reason allowed
Malterer to go to his Ohio home with his
father. The young man's statement, sworn
to, is in th: possession of Coroner McDowell,
and can be used if necessary.
August P. Geisler is not the onlv employ
ment agent against whom the police are col
lecting evidence.
PUNEKAI, OF THE VICTIM.
The bod v of W. H. Angel was buried yes
terday. The funeral service over the dead
man, brief and simple, was conducted by
Bev. Charles Edward Locke, of the Smith
field M. E. Church, in the little chapel at
the pnblic morgue on Fourth avenue. There
were only four or five persons present,
among whom was Mr. A. O. Angel, of
South' Stirling, Pa., a brother of the de
ceased. The body was taken to the new
Bellevne Cemetery, in Allegheny, and
there placed in the vault The other vic
tim, Albert Stern, was interred on Thurs
day by Hebrew friends in this city.
The Coroner also held an inquest on the
body of Philip J. Meyer, the Lawrenceville
man who died on Thursday from a self-inflicted
bullet wound given on New Year's
Day. The verdict was that the young man.
snot nimseit wnue suitering temporary in
sanity. The father, Philip Meyer, testined
that the son fcafi several times showed indi
cations of mental aberration.
SOME OTHEB CASES.
In the case of Henry Gruey, who died on
Wednesday night at Boley's Hotel, the
verdict was that death resulted from hemor
rhage. The inquest into the killing of George
Kelly, the boy killed by jumping off the
train at Neville station on Thursday, re
sulted in a verdict of death resulting from
carelessness on the part of the deceased.
Death from convulsions was found to be
the cause of the taking off of Adolph
Schurch, who died January 2 at tbe West
Penn Hospital.
An inquest was begun, but not com
pleted, on the body of Alfred T. Moore. He
was a Baltimore and Ohio brakeman, who
fell between the cars and was crashed at
West Newton on January 2, and died that
night at the West Penn Hospital. His
ante-mortem statement was read. He said
that he was making his first trip as a brake
man and that the accident was his own
fault.
THE CORONER'S VIEWS.
Coroner McDowell said last night that
the suggestion made by the jury in relation
to licensing employment agencies would be
taken up at the next meeting of Pittsburg
Uouncils, wnen be would nave an ordinance
presented requiring all such agencies to
apply to the police officials before
they would be allowed to begin business.
The ordinance would further require that
all such agencies should keen a complete
record of every application for help and of
every application for work with the name,
age, residence, description, and nationality
oi each applicant, with the fee charged in
each casej that record to be kept open to the
examination of the police at all times and
the agency to be under the surveillance of
the police as the pawnshops are now.
Grappling Hooka for the Police.
Central station and all the patrol stations

THE BALMORAL CflOlE.
An Evening of Great Enjoyment for Scottish
Descendant or Pliuburg Karo Old
Taaes Sang. .
That Pittsburg is one of the strongholds
of Scottish feeling in America no one can
doubt who witnessed the great gathering in
Old City Hall last night.
It had gone forth that the Bilmoral Choir
would sing "hantle of auld sangs frae Auld
Reekie," under tbe kindly auspices of tbe
Waverleyl Society. Straigbtway every Bcot
worthy ot the name within tbe walls of the Twin
Cities, donned his best garb, and brought his
dear ones to the trusting place, resolved to
bear once more the stirring airs which cast a
glamour over his infancy. Tbe spaciou ball
was crowded from door to stagn with eager
listeners, and joyous voices in the braw Lallan
tongue aye, and a few in tbe Erse tongne also
rang merrily ont, with quaint anticipations of
tbe pleasure to come.
It was touching to behold one aged lady, whp
had come all the way from East Libertv per
haps, led up tbe aisle by her gray-haired sod,
and installed in a front seat "Elif'slie said
smilingly, "Eh, but I'd come further than that
to bear 'Auld Robin Cray' once again." It
was amusing also to hear tbe old folks compar
lsz notes.
"An' whaur do ye come fraef ' "Frae Dum
fries." "An' what's your name, hinnvr" "My
name's Fergusson." "Fergussonl Hecb, sirs!
ii vgrandmiiher was aFergusson o' Lockerbie."
"Hear till her! Hear till her! Why, my auld
hume's at Lorkerbiet" "An' tae tbink I've
lived a' these years in tbe tounan' ne'er knew
my awn kin!" And so on, and so 'on. The
Scotch tongue never loses its old Doric ring.
One old guidwife goi oil a piece of sarcasm
at tbe expense of five or six people, who occu
pied seats high up in the chairs at the back of
the stage. "Wha be yon folk?" queried. her
worthy husband of the old dame; wbo tossed
her head scornfully, and answered: "Ob. just
folks that want toe be spiered about"
Tbe artists taking part in the performance
were Misses Effie Goodwin. Edith Ros, Jessie
D. MacKinvosb. Mary Farrell. Jane K. Ford,
Messrs. Peter Kerr, W. Donghu. W, Youne,
H. Taggart and R. J. Patrick. Miss Ford was
also accompanist and Mr. Walter Bruce acted
as conductor. As acompllmenttotheandiencn
tho concert opened with 'The Star Spangled
Banner." which was, of course, loudly ap
plauded. Then "Scots Wnae Hae," sung by
the whole choir, thrilled every beart with Its
warlike strains, and one donghty descendant of
the Douglasses, a few seats from the writer,
looked as though he longed for a claymore
or skene-dnn to prove his prowess, in
tbe cause of Scotland. Bnt the martial music
died away; and tho long wail of rent and bleed
ing Scotia filled the air. "Woes me for Prince
Charlie!" Woes me for tbe leal hearts wbo
fell atCulloden! Woes me for tbe flower of
tbe forest, wbo were a' weed awayl
Even in an audience mostly made up of
Covenanters' kin, as last night's audience un
doubtedly was, the wof nl lament of tbe ex
iled Stuart, was applauded to the echo. Mr.
Peter Kerr's tenor is a tenore robusto, but it
was sweet and sympathetic, indeed, in
the lav of bonnie "Mary of Argyle."
Mr. Kerr was encored, and spite
of certain Kateran expeditions npon
Kerr cattle in tbe Lothians. In tbe old days,
threw his whole heart and voice into "Mc
Gregor's Gathering." The laughable strains
of "Maggie Lander" and her dance to Piper
Kab's cbaunters, were rendered by the
choir; and then came the part song
To Mary," especially composed for tbe
American tour by Sir H. Oakeley.
Miss Effie Goodwin and Miss Edith Ross sang
"Ye Banks and Braes," with exquisite effect;
and the choir joined in setting the ball a-laugh-ing
over "Green Grow the Rushes, oh!" The
coquettish manner in which the female voices
sang the last lines of the verses was irresisti
ble. .
Tbe descendant of the Douglases, above re
ferred to bad now changed bis warlike lor a
more melting mood, and waxed poetic, over
Miss Ford's winsome face.
Miss Edith Ross' powerful contralto voice
was next beard in "Auld Robin Gray," and
never was Lady Lindsay's tender lyric more
loudly applauded. "Jock tf Hazeldean" fol
lowed as an encore by Mis3 Boss; and
every pair of true lovers in the hall
echoed its sentiments in their hearts.
Mr. R. J. Patrick made langhter run
riot among the listeners, when he told the
ood old tale of tbe minister and his precentor,
andy MacDonald, in "gude braid Scotch."
One wonders how many merry folks have
lauehed over 'The Foxes' Tails," ever smce
first it was written.
Burns' "Willie Wastle" was the next feature;
and the wife that Willie Cad proved as gro
tesnuelv funnr as ever.
Tne second part opened with tbe "March of
the Cameron Men," and found the andience
all tramping in imagination with Evan
of Locbfel, knee deep in purple heatber.
"Kate Dalrymple" followed, and Miss
Effie Goodwin (of whom the aforesaid Douglas
said that she was "a sweet soprano,") eave
"Angus MacDonald," and "Comln' Thro' the
Rve," very charmingly. After tbe touching
"Why Left I My Home," Mr. W. Young, thun
dered forth "Blue Bonnets over tbe Border," in
bis grand bass.
Mr. Patrick was again side-splitting in
"Peter's Wooing," and "Susie Ye Jaud."
Many were at first sorry that the "Laird of
Cockpen" was not snntr. as advertised; but
when Miss Ross gave "Annie Laurie" instead,
they were more than satisfied. Tbere was a
certain one in the ball wbo had left an Annie
Laurie an Annie of Maxwellton, too in far
oft Dumfriesshire; and he felt very sad
while the dear old snng was a-singing.
Miss Ross sang "Caller Herrin' " as an encore,
and. was followed by Messrs. Kerr, Douglas and
Young in "Willie Brewed a Peck o' Mant!"
Although the three jolly good fellows. Bob,
Allan aud Wi.'lie, strenuously pro
tested that they were "No that fou." it
was only too apparent from their unsteady
gait, and rubicund visage, that tbey had a
pood deal core than 'Must a draopiein the eel"
Tbe audience screamed with rolrtb, when the
three brightest hearts In Christendie, began
seeing the moon in six different directions at
once, at the same time chauntingt
We're no fon, we're no fon.
But Jnst a drappte In oar ee:
Tbe cock may craw, the day may daw.
But still we'll taste tbe barley bree!''
An insidious appeal was then made to tbe au
dience in "Will Ye No Come Back Acain f and
the performance ended with the singing In re
sonant chorus, of "Auld Lang Syne."
And so closed a pleasant night; a "braw
nicbt" indeed for children, and foster children,
of tbe land of cakes: a night that will be re
membered around tbe hearths of many a Scot
tish family exiled lu the Iron City, for many a
long day.

held in the main dining hall which
had been elaborately decorated for the
occasion. The tables were ranged in the
form of a hollow square, the center of which

Kentucky's Junior Senator Chosen In Caucus
to Succeed Himself.
LEXnfGTOir, January 3. The Demo
cratic caucus at Frankfort this afternoon
nominated Hon. J. C. S. Blackburn to suc
ceed himself as United States Sen
ator from Kentucky. Jndge W.
Lindsay, of Frankiort, made the
nominating speech, and Henry Mason, of
Hancock county, seconded it. Both ad
dresses paid tbe highest tribute to Ken
tucky's Junior Senator, and they were re
ceived with tremendous applause. After
tbe nomination, which was without opposi
tion, Senator Blackburn made a most elo
quent address, in which he thanked his
supporters, the people of Kentucky and the
gallant Democracy.

dutv on any foreign commodity that we caa
not'prodnce sufficiently to supply the wants
of the United States.
Mr. Carlisle Then yon would put a duty
on tea and coffee because we do not produce)
either of them?
The Witness As to what would be a wisa
revenue system, I submit that that is a sub
ject which has not been assigned to ma to
discuss. If I were driven to the necessity of
putting a duty on tea and coffee, I would of
course resort to it.
Mr. Carlisle Would not that tie mevita
bly the result of your policy. ,
The Witness If necessary to save the)
protective system I would tax whisky not
merely 90 cents a gallon, but $1 50 a gallon
to the full extent to which the law could
be enforced.
The Chairman Is it not one of tbe com-
plaints against the protective system that
we are raising too much revenue?
The Witnesi Yes, and all the efforts ot
the last administration and of' the present
one have not yet been able to get rid of tho
surplus.
1TOT AT ALL PEOHIBIIOEY.
The committee here took a recess for half
an hour. After the recess Mr. Lawrence re
sumed his statement. The duties which ha
had been instructed by tbe National Wool
Growers' Association to ask to have inserted
in. the bill were, be said, not at all prohibi
tory, andonly, to a limited extent, protective.
Mr. Bayne suggested, in order to sava ft
time and to give other gentlemen an oppor 3
tunity to address the committee, that Mr. ;
Lawrence's manuscript be printed without
being read. To this suggestion Mr. Law4
rence assented, with the condition that ha
wonld make a condensed statement orally of ' r
what it contained, and then hand over tha
manuscript to the official reporter.
That clause was adopted, and Mr.
Lawrence went on with his re .,
marks. He would purposely, he said, ;
omit tbe tariff speech which be would like to
make in Congress to tbe effect thatanade-
quate duty on wool and manufactured woolen -,.i
goods would not increase the cost at all, be- '
cause bomb competition would prevent uu- j
reasonable charges, while, if tbe protective &
policy were abandoned and all snch products i
were imported from abroad, the result would, i
be that tbe American people would be at tha 4
mercy of loreign trusts and corporations. ',
BESTS OK ABANDONMENT.
Mr. Carlisle That argument rests on the ax it
sumption that the home industry would bef ,1
abandoned. ' i
The Witness Yes, the effect of the tariff of
1883 has been to cut down vastly the number ot .
our sheep, and, with free wool, tbe wool Indus
try would be practically abandoned in tho ,
United States. The Boston Wool Reporter, ha
said, had recently spoken of a little coterie of
Ohio politicians whowerepre'singdemandsfar
a high duty on wooL He (the witness) was not
a politician, bnt a member of the Ohio Wool
Growers' Association. That association had a
large membership, but tbere was not a poll
tlcian among itsmembers.
Tbe next witness was Mr. John T. Ricb, of
Michigan, wbo said that he was the representa
tive of tbe Michigan Merino Sheep Associa
tion, and that tbe needs and situation of tba.
association were Identical with those of tho
average wool grower of Michigan. They de
sired that tbere be no reduction on wool; thas
there shall be substantial protection, and that
frauds iu importations of wool shall bo pro
ven tea.
Mr. James Dobson, of Philadelphia, carpet
manufacturer, next addressed the Commission,
criticising what he called tbe violent tirada
which Mr. Lawrence bad indulged in against
carpet manufacturers, and denying tbe cor
rectness of many of his statements.
Tbere were no men, be sain, wbo
would go further In tbe protection causa
than the carpet manufacturers, but tbey
did not want to be bounded, as tbey had been
for years, by the wool growers and wool
dealers. If there was to be free trade, let it bo
free trade, pure and simple, and tbe carpet
manufacturers would take their chances. The
asked nothing more than to be put on the same
level as woolen cloth manufacturers.
DOBSON'S ABGTJMENT.
Mr. Dobson argued that the wool growers off
tbe United States would not and could not pro
duce the quantity of carpet wool used in that
Industry, because where they received 1 SO
for the fleece of a fine wool sheep, tbey would
nbt receive 23 cents for that of a coarse wool
sheep. j".
Wm. "Whitman, of Boston, President of tho
National Association of Wool Manufacturers.
next addressed tha committee, presenting a
memorial and resolutions adopted by that asso
ciation. The association took the position, ho
said, not to attempt to fix the duty on wool.but
to leave that to the committee without remark
or comment. He would say, however,
that tbe prevailing sentiment among
the manufacturers connected witbi
the organization was a preference for
the maintenance of the existing duties, and
that tbe present rates should not be increased.
They wonld certaluly oppose any attempt to
restrict tbe importation of foreign wool, and
be did not believe that the committee would,
attempt such a thing, because it would be im
possible for wool manufacturers to produce all
tbe goods necessary for borne consumption,
unless they could have foreign wooL The woo
manufacturers, he said, were willing to have a,
protective duty on wool, but not a prohibitory
nr rpstHntlve dntv.
Mr. Bayne Have you figured out what thatt
duty should be?
SATISFIED WITH THE DUTY.
The Witness "Vo,we have not gone into that.
We ds not come here to rdake an argument f ot
lower duty on wool or for higher duty on wool.
We are satisfied with the duty as it now Is.
After a long examination, tbe witness was
asked by Mr. Breckinridge whether, if tba
wool manufacturers of the United States had
free wool, tbey could enlarge their market by
sales to foreign countries, and he replied that
under no circumstances would free wool en
able wool manufacturers to make an impres
sion on the foreign markets.
Mr. Breckinridge Or free anything else.
. The Witness I would like to confine my an
swer to what I knowabout.
Mr. Breckinridge Would Tree wool give yoa
an increased market in the country?
The Witness 1 think tbere can be hardly any
question but that it would, at once, stimulate
production, and would give us an opportunity
to display the foreign products now used here.
But I think that the effect of free wool would i
be to diminish the price of wool, and, come- ,:
questly. to discourage the sheep raiser; and
the moment we begin to take from tbe world's
product any given amonnt of wool the price
would be raised, and tbe probability Is that '
wool would become considerably dearer than -,
it now la.
A COMPABATIVE TAEITT. ;
Mr. T.IC. Search, of Philadelphia, represent j
Ing the Manufacturers Club of that city, was!
tbe next witness. He declared himself in har- i
mony with the views expressed by tbe last wit
ness and argued to prove that the duty on
varns and woolen cloth should be just four n
times as great as the duty on unwashed wools,
which was now 10 cents per pound with 40 and 1
50 per cent additional ad valorem. J
Sir. McMillan Do you favor an increased
duty on wool 7 4
The Witness I do not object to anything that 3
the wool men ask to-day.
A statement on the same subject, and to a
like effect was made by Mr. "W. H. Fol well, ot
Philadelphia, cloth manufacturer. He an-
nounced himself in favor of putting high du- j
ties'on Southern products sugir. rice, turpen 1
tine and peanuts and of having free whisky -d
and free tobocco. J
Mr. McMillan You would have free whisky ij
The Witness I would only tax tbe sugar thatj
comes from abroad, until we could supply tho
wbole demand ourselves.
The next statement was by Mr. Alexander &
Kursbeedt, of Philadelphia, braid manufac
turer. He argued in favor of a specific duty of
75 cents a pound on braids and 50 per cent ad
valorem.
Mr. John F. Plummer, of New York, made
some remarks on the subject of woolen fabrics
worn by men. He said that be did so, not as a
manufacturer nor as a wool grower; bnt as an
enthusiast in favor of American wool products.
The country was suffering under a popular
Tironrticn tha.t better clothes could be eotf
abroad than here at the same price. He de-m
dared that there was no country where a man ,
could set as good a suit of clothes for as little
money as In the United States,
Tbe committee, at 5.30 o'clock, adjourned till
in a. m. to-morrow.
