Colonel Bayne read a letter from James Campbell coming bacK at Bynum and Wil son. Bynum again denounced Campbell as a liar and perjurer, and intimated that Bayne 'was so better. Then pandemonium reigned for hours. Bynum was finally censured for Lis language, but declared that he accepted the rebuke as a decoration of honor. iritOM X STAFF COKRESrOKPEXT.l "Washington, May 17. From the stand point of Mr. Bynum, of Indiana, there has been blood on the face of the moon ever since James Campbell was the other day delendcd from his attacks by Colonel Bayne. Bynum had denounced Campbell as a liar and perjurer, referring to the affidavit of Campbell that Bynum and Wilson, of Weft Virginia, had declared to him and others that $15 a month was enough pay for a glassblou er. , Colonel Bayne had replied in a calm, brief speech, asserting that Mr. Campbell ' was a gentleman of reputation quite equal to ,thai oi the gentleman from Indiana. Since that moment Bynum has awaited bis opportunity to insult Bayne. Just how to do this safely was a matter of serious mo ment. While Mr. Bynum is said to hare cor.fidenc ' Lis ; iwrr to cngiga success lully in a physical fray, he was aware that .Mr. Bayne had once upon a time had a reputation second to none as a gentleman boxtr. Tlie Plan That Was Adopted. The safest plan was to repeat that Camp bell was a liar and perjurer, and that with that brand upon him he was yet as good a man as Mr. Bayne. This was the more or less shrewd conrse taken by him, and it re sulted in a rj7 lasting from 4 o'clock to 9 o'clock:, such as has not been witnessed since the days when the Democrats were about to pull Reed Irom the Speaker's chair on the first occasion when he attempted to count a quorum. At times it appeared as if per sonal encounters were certain to ocenr. Mills was more than usually insulting to Speaker Reed, whom he takes every occasion - to grossly insult, knowing that he will have entire immumtyin doing so. The occurrences which led up to this ruction are briefly as follows: During the campaign of 18S8 Mr. Campbell published a letter in Pittsburg, in which he stated that Messrs. Bynum and Wilson had stated to him when he appealed to them against a reduction of the tariff on window glass, that 15 a month was good wages for a glassL-lower. This was denied at the time by both Wilson and Bynum, and Campbell followed with an affidavit citing three or four witnesses who had heard the remarks of the gentlemen. Aroused tlie Ire of the Hoosier. This was circulated in the Congressional districts of the two candidates for re-election, and their vote suffered considerably on account of it- This has especially pained Mr. Bynnm, and several times he has seized occasion to denounce Campbell as the tool of the protectionists who were under indictment for importing foreign laborers under contract, and finally, warm ing up at the work, denounced him as a liar and perjurer. Colonel Bayne replied in a brief defense of Mr. Campbell, assuring the House of his high reputation, and declar ing that his reputation for truth was equal to that of Mr. Rynum. He also bad read as a part of his remarks a letter from Campbell, bitterly arraigning Bvnum and Wilson for assaulting him un der cover of their privilege as members of ( the House, and saying that if they had been honorable men they would have made counter affidavits instead of falling back on insults and bluster. Bynum alwajs loses bis head when he gets irritated, while Wil son is cool and courteous under all circum stances. 7lie Letter Tliat Cntnr. The House was indulging in the custom ary tariff debate, when Colonel Bayne arose in his seat, and, alter a lew introductory re marks, sent to the clerk's desk and had read a letter from James Campbell. The document was as follows: To Hon. Thomas M. Bayne. Washington, O. C.: From reports in the Associated Press. I see that Messrs. McSIillin, Wilson ana Bynum fiavo made a personal attack on me on the -floor ot the House. In relation to the al leged Importation of foreign labor under contract, there Is a suit pending In the United v States Court against James Campbell, and "William Sticker, of L. A.

Owing the Urge increase In the demand I or workmen In this country, tbe organization joruuea me members in .Europe ot vacancies in fthls country. This action was decided neces sTrr. from tbe fact that, altbouch all the tbe elats workers in tbe United Hum u-cra noticed, enough could not be obtained to ant- ' -"'ply the demand- And, In accordance with tho rules and objects of our order, we Informed tbe mombcrs In Europe.

In regard to tbe charge of Mr. Bynum that he would have mo In a orison cell, the facts ot the caio are. tbat I attended tbe meeting of the Goners! Assembly of the Knights of Labor at Indianapolis In November, 1888, and was there for two weeks, and during that time there was hardly a day bnt my name appeared In the papers. Tbe papers made note of the fact tbat I called on President Harrison, and Mr. Bynum had plenty of chance to put me behind those prison bars he talks about. Bat such big boobies as he is cannot scare anyone. When I first uiado the statement about (15 a month I was known as a Democrat; and just such statements as Bynum and Wilson made caused me to change my politics. Any sensible workingman that would mingle among thoi-e people would soon change his politics. They would be like Saul of Tarsus when the scales fell from his eyes. Their cowardly and contemptible attack on won tbat was not present to defend himself oniy shows the true character of the party that is only known as the assassins of men. Their sole argument is assassination of men opposed to them. Respectfully yours, J as. Campbell, Bynnm Demands tbe Floor. Mr. Bynum then claimed recognition on a question of personal privilege relating to the Campbell letter. The Chair was in clined to think tbat the letter did not pre sent a matter of personal privilege. Then ensued a scene of nproar. Mr. Bynum en deavored to proceed, but be was shouted down by the Republican side. ) Mr. Bayne added to the confusion bylex claiming at the top of his voice that a gen tleman for whom he had the highest respect had been charged with forgery, and he wanted to present, the letter in his defense. Mr. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, shouted out to the Chairman that it was not fair to silence the man who had been publicly at tacked and let the man speak who had made himself sponsor of the slanderer and stood in tbe shoes of a slanderer. Tbe Allegheny Member to the Front. Amid intense confusion, excitement and shouts of "Louder," "Louder," Mr. Bayne was heard to declare tbat Campbell was the equal in every respect to the member from Kentucky, and Mr. Breckinridge to assert that he had no doubt that the member from Pennsylvania took the man as bis standard of manhood. Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, said that the revenue bill was under consideration. Mr. Mills There is a slander under con sideration. Mr. Bynum complained that the Chair had stopped bim and allowed the gentleman from Pennsylvania to go on. The Chair stated tha; he had not per mitted the gentleman from Pennsylvania to proceed. The Chair had done the best that he could to prevent the gentlemen from Pennsylvania and Kentucky from using the language they did. The Chair bad done all he could, and was not responsible for the gentlemen proceeding out o( order. Mr. Cannon made tbe point of order that when the committee was acting under a rule of the House it was not in order to al low gentlemen to wash their dirty linen against ibe rule of the HonR. Lond Democratic jeers and cries of order. The Chair was of the opinion that it was a question of personal privilege, and over ruled the point of order. BIcKlnley Asks for Fntr Play. Mr. McKinley thought thai it was to the interest of fair play to allow tbe gentleman from Indiana to proceed, no matter what the rules' might be. After half an hour of uproar Mr. Bynum secured the floor and comparative quiet, and said tbat the Campbell affidavit was to the effect that Mr. Wilson and he had said that $15 a month was enough for any glass blower. In bis district, where be was known, the affidavit had not been circulated, but it had been circulated in Mr. Wilson's district He had telegraphed to the West Virginia papers denouncing Campbell us a liar and perjurer. Since tne gentleman from Penn sylvania constituted himself tbe sewer through which this attack ot Campbell made its way into the Record Mr. Cheadle, of Indiana, made the point of order that language was out of order. The Chair thought that the word "sewer" in this connection was hardly parliament ary Mr. Bynum I withdraw it then, and say '"conduit pipe." Since the gentleman from Pennsylvania is the medium through which the statement of Campbell found its way into the Record, since the Chair has said that the way a citizen wbo may feel aggrieved can get into the Record is by the indorsement ot a member of tbe House, I have simply to say that I did the other day, knowing full well the meaning of the words, and that I was re sponsible for them, denounce Mr. Camp bell as ,. A il&r nnd as n Perjurer. and I want to say now that I accept and am' willing to believe that I have as great con fidence in the character of Mr. Campbell as I have in the character of the gentleman who makes this attack upon me. Excite ment and uproar. Mr. Cutcheon demanded that the words be taken down, while Mr. Morgan, of Mississippi, stood in front of the Chairman's desk and urged that both the letter and the' speech be stricken from the Record. He feared that they might lead to trouble out side ot tbe House. The offensive words were taken down and reported from the. Clerk's desk. Mr. Cntcheon moved that the committee rise and report the words to the House for its action. This was agreed to 120 to 99 and as Mr. Bayne rose to vote for the mo tion, he was greeted with jeering cries of "Bayne, Bayne, Bayne" from the Demo cratic side. Mr. Cutcheon then offered the following: Resolved, Tbat the member from Indiana, Mr. William D. Bynum, in tbelancnage used by him in committee of the whole and taken down and reported to the House and read at the clerk's desk, has been guilty of a violation of tbe rules and privileges of tboHonse, and mwrits the censure of the House for the same. Resolved, Tbat tbe same William D. Bynum be now be brought to tbe bar of the House by the Sergeant-at-Arms and there the censure of tbe House be administered by tbe Speaker. Any Amouot of Argument. Mr. Cutcheon demanded tbe previons question, amid suggestions of "Gog law" Horn the Democratic side. Mr. Springer made the point of order that before a resolu tion of censure could be adopted the Speaker must decide that tlie language was Unparlia mentary. Besides this, it was the right of a member to explain his language before it was in order to offer a resolution of censure. This resolution was without precedent. Mr. Cutcheon said that he had copied the resolution from the last resolution of the kind ever presented in the House. That resolution had been offered by Mr. Herbert and bad been directed against John Van Vorhis, of New York, tn the Forty-seventh Congress. The resolution had not been acted upon becanse Mr. Van Vorhis hadmado a foil apology to the House and to the gen tleman attacked. If the gentleman would mak as ample and manly retraction ot his words, he (Mr. Cutcheon) would withdraw his demand for the previous question. The Speaker overruled the point of order." So Time for a Explanation. Mr. Greenhalge, of Massachusetts, asked unanlmoai content that Mr. Bynum be per mitted to make an explanation, but Mr. Martin, of Indiana, objected. Mr. Bprlnger made the point of order that the laugnago ucd was not unparliamentary. Tho Speaker overruled the point; Mr. Springer appealed, and the appeal was tabled yeas. 121 nays, 08. ' ' Mr. Cutcheon then demanded the yeas and nay i on hit demand for the previous question, nnd as he did so Mr. Springer rose with a motion to reler the resolution to the Committee on Rules with certain instruo. tlons. Tbe Speaker (Ignoring Mr. Springer's motion) declared the yeas and nays ordered. Mr. Springer protested, saying that the Speaker had heard bis motion, and that he need not pretend that he had not. Mr. Mo Millin called attention to the fact that the yeas and nays on the previous question had not been ordered. The Speaker thereupon recognized Mr. Springer, who moved to refer the resolution to the Committee on Rules with instructions to inquire whether the language used by Mr. Bynum was out of order and whether there was not sufficient justification for its nse. Dilatory Tactics of tho Democrats. Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, made a point of order against the motion, nnd the poiut be ing sustained by the Speaker, Mr. Springer appealed. The appeal was tabled yeas, 114; nays, 78. Mr. Wheeler, of Alabama, (changing .his vote for that pur pose) moved to reconsider, Tbe motion to reconsider was tabled yeas, 122; nays, 28 tbe Speaker counting a quorum. Tho pre vious question was ordered on the resolu tion Yeas, 129. nays, 69. Mr. Bland, (who bad voted in the affirmative), moved to reconsider. Tbe Speaker declined to recognize the motion, declaring it to be dilatory. Then for a few moments there was another scene of confusion, Mr. Bland declaring that the Speaker was trampling upon the rules of tbe Honse. The confusion, how ever, was only temporary. Mr. Cntcheon contended that the gentleman Irom In diana had violated all parliamentary usage by making a direct and personal attack upon the gentlemen irom Pennnsyl vania. The question was whether It was parliamentary for one member substantially to denounce another as a liar and a perjurer. He did not believe that any member could afford to say that it was not a violation of the rules of the House. The time bad come (in view of the language heretofore used by tbe gentlemen from Indiana) that the line should be drawn where parliamentary pro ceedings ceased and a violation of the rules ot tbe Honse began. A Difference Between tbe Incident!. Mr. Herbert, of Alabama, referring to an allusion to the Van Vorhis case, said thero was a marked differenro between that esse and tne present one. Van Vorhis and Mr. Page (who was attacked), were both Re publicans. Tho motion to ceniuro had coma from him (Mr. Herbert) because it was pnrelv a qnestion ot maintaining tbe dignity aud decorum of tho House. There was no provocation for the language. What a contrast was here. The gentleman from Pennsyl vania bad been the aggressor. He had brought in a letter containing a malignant attack against the gentleman from Indiana and West Virginia. The letter had only been rnled legitimate on tbe idea that the gentlemen from Pennsyl vania fathered that letter and thut be was making an attack which justified everything that had been said by the gen man from Indiana. Democratic applause. As a judge in this case,he believed that the geutleman irom Indiana was bound to re sent the insult. Applause. The provoca tion came from the other side, and tbe gen tleman from Pennsylvania, of the majority, was to go scot tree and the gentleman of the minority wa to be cnnrrrl for doing ja". what be was forced, to do, by the circum stances of tbe case. Applause, The Lansnose Justifiable. Mr. Springer said that the majority, in adopting that resolution.? would set a prece dent which would not redound to its benefit. The lauguage of the gentleman from In diana was justifiable, if not parliamentary. The gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Cutcheon) thought that Mr. Bynum ought to be censured, not only for his language, but for the language he used at the time he denounced tbe Speaker of the Honse. The gentleman from Pennsylvania adopted the language of the' letter that two of the members of the House were not honorable men. Gentlemen might, if they desired, approve of such language, but let "him see any man rise to apply that lan guage. They would not do it, though they sat in their seats and pretended to approve it. The gentleman from Pennsylvania had put himself out of the sale of honorable discussion when he imputes dishonorable motives to members on the Democratic side of the House. Applause. Mr. Mills, of Texas, said that tbe Honse seemed to be determined to supply with speed what it lacked in patience. He could not say anything which would deprive the majority ot the pleasure of punishing Mr. Bynum for past offenses, when he had de nounced the tyrannical and despotic orders of the Speaker, who had trampled on all rules of parliament ary law. The gentleman from Michigan, who was public prosecutor, who was the right bower of the gentleman from Pennsyl vania, had himselt insulted two of the best men in the House. He badaid the other day that he would believe Campbell as quickly as he would either one of those gen tlemen. Tbe gentleman from Pennsylvania had given the first offense. Not only that, bnt lor the First Time Id the History of the country, and he hoped the last, a member of the House of Representatives had made himself a vehicle for bringing a scurrilous.insnlting and offensive letter into the Honse and putting it upon the record; and when he encountered tbe tnanly,chival- rous defense of the gentleman be bad at tacked, be cried like a baby. Democratic applause. Repeated outbreaks, dilatory motions, points of order, and so forth consumed tbe time until nearly 9 o'clock, when a final vote was reached ordering the previous question, and after a few blustery speeches, the resolution calling Mr. Bynum before the bar of the House lor censure was passed. Fortunately for the Republicans a party caucus had been called, and therefore there was a good attendance. With the announcement of the vote the Speaker instructed the Sergeant at Arms to bring Mr. Bynum before the bar of the House, but tbe latter waited for no such es cort. He almost ran down the aisle, and fellow-Democrats crowded down with him to accept the censure with him. The venerable Objector Holman stood at his right hand. Every Democrat who is noted as a router and blusterer crowded close to tbe man about to be disgraced to share tho formal condemna tion of the House. Bynnm Had Lota of Company. As tbe Sergeant at Arms was about to inform Mr. Bynum that he was brought before the bar of tbe House for censure, Speaker Reed requested those standing to take their seats. Republicans shouted "Sit down, sit down," but the 50 Democrats stood their ground about their colleague. A second time the Speaker requested those standing to sit down tbat the proceeding might be orderly, and here is where the Speaker showed the first real lack of nerve during the session. Not a single member had a right to stand, with the exception of Bynum. Under the rnles, the Speaker should have called on the Sergeant at Arms and his deputies to to clear tbe area in front of tbe bar and of those crowding the aisles. To resist would have been riot ous and have subjected the member resisting to the risk of criminal prosecution. After a moment's hesitation the Speaker said, in measured tones: "As it seems im possible to enforce order the Chair will pro--ceed with the House in disorder," and he Continued on Sixth Page. GOING INTO POLITICS. Socialists Will Hnvo Candidates for Parllamont in London. GLADSTONE ISNOWHABD A'T WORK Arousing and Encouraging the Supporters of Home Halo. AMERICAN DIPLOMATS IN TEODBLE. A Demand for the Becall cf Tito of Our foreign fienresentatlres. The London Socialistic Federation has de cided to run candidates for Parliament. They claim a majority in 30 districts. Glad stone is making a tour of Eastern England, arousing the adherents of the Liberal party. 1 1 ondon, May 17. Copyright, The SociaL Democrat Federation has now ar ranged to run a candidate for nearly every i London constituency at the general election, and its wirepullers talk of having a com pact party of about 30 members In tbe new Parliament. The Socialists will make an attempt, which is foredoomed to failure, to capture the trades union conference which will meet in September at Liverpool. The couference will be unusually important this year, and one of the leading questions for discussion will be the eight-hour day. Over 400 delegates will be present. Mr. Gladstone is just now engaged in one of those famous political campaigns by means of which he periodically rouses the enthusiasm and devotion of his supporters all over the country, and encourages the Liberal rank and file to renewed efforts. The scene this time is in the east of En gland, which has long been neglected by the Liberal leaders with the not unnatural re sult that the 19 county divisions of Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex are represented by 10 Ministerialists and three Liberals. ABOUSIXO ENTHUSIASM. That there are plenty of good Home Rulers in Eastern England has been abundantly proved by the extraordinary enthusiasm with which the Grand Old Man has been received whenever, and wherever he has been seen in publio since his arrival in the district siuco yesterday morning. At Norwich this afternoon 2,000 Liberal dele gates assembled in the St. Andrew's Hall building, over 400 years old, andadoptod by acclamation a political programme so radical in character as to make old-fashioned Tories gasp with horror, nnd in tho evening Mr. Gladstone addressed a meeting of 10,000 Liberals, with the energy and passion of a young man. He spoko for an hour and a quarter with out a tremor In bis voice, every tono of which reached the remotest corners of the vast hall. The speech was a wonderfully effective impeachment of tho whole policy of the Government and tbe tone throughout was hopeful of coming triumph. To-day the Grand Old Mau has made more speeches, and as 1 cable he is telling the good people of Lowestoft how absurd it is for English men to send petitions to tbe Czar on behalf of Siberian exilrs when British troops and policemen shoot down innocent Irishmen and the British Parliament takes away xrisu iiueruej. the j.iQtroi rxr-r.. The second reading of the bill for com pensating publicans when dispossessed was carried by 73 majority. Six Unionists and two a Conservatives voted with tha Glad stonians against it. Many more Tories only supported the proposals in a half-hearted way, and would be glad to see them dropped, but this the Government can hard ly doat present, as Gosclien threatens to re sign if the bill be not proceeded with and pusnea tnrougb. No one believes the Gov ernment can do it. Harcourt declares that the opposition will offer at every stage of the bill a most persisten. and determined resistance, and in committee the facilities for opposing it are enormous. Smith, known as the Grand Old Woman, announces that he will give only three davn' holiday at Whitsuntide, bnt this has raised such a howl that he will probably have to extend it. Business is so far behind now, however, and so many money votes are re quired before otherlegislation can be pro ceeded with that an autumn session is' re garded as a certainty unless, indeed, the Government after all means dissolution. DIPLOMATS IN DANGER. A Demand for the Recall of a Conplo of American Representatives. I BY CABLE TO TUB DISPATCH.! Loudon, May 17. Private information reaches me from Rome to the effect that the United States will bs reqnested to recall President Harrison's new military attache. This young man is an Italian by birth, who, on a previous visit to Italy was seized for military service, and bis release effected with some difficulty. He has made himself so unpopular since his return in a diplo matic capacity, that he will probably be able to serve his country best hereafter out side of Italy. William Burgess, the new consul to Tun stall, in the potteries district of Stafford shire, is also objected to on the ground that he is engaged in the pottery tiade in the United States. He has just arrived at Stoke-on-Trent, where the Chamber of Commerce will hold a meeting next week to consider the matter. YOUNG BISMARCK IN ENGLAND.

He has visited, among others, Lord Roseberry, Sir Charles and Lady Dilko and Lord Edmund Fitz maurice, all of whom have at one time or another had the foreign affairs of England under their control.

SP UHGEON AS A BOYCOTTER. Young Preacbers Who Do Not Agree With 11 Ira Summarily Cast Adrift. BT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.! London, May 17. The Rev. Mr. Spur geon, the radical Baptist preacher who turned against Gladstone on the home rnle question, has taken to boycotting, a weapon the use of which In Irish hands he has re peatedly and fiercely denonnced from pulpit and platform. He seceded from the Baptist union two or three years ago because that body was not sufficiently Calvinistic, and most of his friends left with bim. Some 60 young pastors, however, who had received their training at Spnrgeon's Col lege, preferred to remain with tbe union. Efforts to make them swallow the dogma of Spnrgeon's infallibility having finally failed they have, been cut off from com munion with the great man and his flock. Spurgeon's bitterness In this controveny is severely criticised in non-conformist circles. THE BRAVE AND THE PAIK. STANLEY HA8 WON A BRIDE WELL WOB. THY OF HIM. If Ho Ever Retains to Africa Hho Will Barely Accompany Him An Artist and Fhllanlliroplst as Well as a Soclyy Bennly An Old Ijovo. rnr cable to tub dispatch.! London, May 17. The announcement of Stanley's engagement to Dorothy Tennant has taken all London by surprise, although many of his friends now remember tbat what little preference he ever seemed to have for the other sex was for the beautiful woman he is about to marry. Miss Tennant is in fact ust the woman to capture a hero's heart, as she is just the woman to wait for a hero before losing her own heart. She is tall and stately, though rather of a dashing type of beauty, She is about 30 years old and is tbe daughter of the late Charles Ten nant. She lives with her mother In a beautiful house in Richmond terrace, where she has a Studio fitted up, for she is Known as an un usually ctever artist, as wen . as a lauy oi 'fashion. One of her fads has been the street Arab, and several of her best paintings in the Academy have been of the London gamin. Her picture in this year's exhi bition Isot five little waifs hanging over the railing on tbe Thames embankment. She has had a class of small outcasts whom she has given an hour or two instruction each day for a number of years. Miss Tennant is the original of the beautiful girl in Sir John Millais' well-known picture "No End," in which she is represented as meditating upon the answer to a letter she holds in her hand. Watts has also painted her for the Academy holding a squirrel in her band. Altogether the bold explorer has won a very superior woman for his wife and she marries him with the full understanding that when he returns to Africa she goes with him. The Pall Mall Gazette prolesses to know that the engagement was before Stanley's last trip to Africa, but most of Miss Ten nant's friends believe tbat he did not come to the point until his return. THE TERRIER OF AN 'EAttT. Becomes the Subject of a Learned Decision In a Conrt of Law. CBT CABLE TO TUB DISPATCH.! London, May 17. Two aristocrats dogs have figured in the proceedings of the British courts of law this week. Earl Annesley's terrier, returning homo from an early morn ing walk on Thursday, unlawfully un muzzled, saw a cat in his master's shrub bery and with tbe reckless zeal of youth tried to reach its enemy by a short cut through tbe railings in which he stuck fast with his tail end banging over the Queen's highway and the other end over the Earl's pri vate garden. The dog's howls attracted the attention of a policeman. The animal's signalling end was undeniably on the publio way aud beyond a doubt tne unmuzzled other end was on private property and not amenable to tbe law. Tbe officer decided tbat there was enough dog In the tail to justify him in setting the machinery oi the law in motion, and the noble earl was summoned to tbe Marylebone Police Court to answer a charge of "allowing a dog to be in a publio place unmuzzled contrary to the provisions of the rabies order in Council, of 1889." The learned magistrate decided tbat the law did not require the tail to be muzzled, and as only tbe wagging pnrt was on a public place he'dismlssed the summons. The other dog tale was told in Warwick County Court, where, tbe same day, the Countess Aylesford was called upon to pay tbe costs ot an unsuccessful action . brought by her against the Great Western Railway. The Countess pleaded that her separate es tate consisted wholly and solely of one dog, which she said tbe plaintiffs could take if the animal would allow it as asset. It proved to be a bow-legged bulldog of sinful countenance. The offer was declined with thanks. A LOVER TOR VICTORIA. The Qneen Has Him Sent to Prison as a Lnnatlc, llowever. BY CABLB po THB DISPATCH, 1 London, May 17. Queen Victoria, al though over 70 years of age, has found favor in the amorous eyes of Alfred Carter, a young man who has been studying for the Wesleyan Ministry. Carter, who is a Lancashire lad, went to Windsor, and fail ing to obtain an interview with the object of his affections, wrote her several loving let ters proposing -marriage. Sad to tell the letters were handed to an unromantic and flinthearted Police Inspector of the appro priate name of Savage, who found Carter wondering about the Windsor fields sighing the name ot Victoria, and hauled bim off to prison on the charge of being a lunatic. The Queen and court start next week for Balmoral, in the Scotch Highlands, where Victoria always spends part of the spring and summer. The castle and estate are her private property having been bought out of the savings of herprivy purse. The Prince and Princess of Wales will, as usual, per form the Queen's social duties during her absence. SOME USE JOB ROYALTY.

The Czar has been having a relatively tranquil time of late, and he has this week been paying marked attention to the Italian Crown Prince, now on a visit to Russia. But the triple alliance remains unshaken. The royal occulist, Duke Charles Theodore, of Bavaria, has just concluded what this most useful and hard working of Princes terms a month's holiday at Merau, in Tyrol. As soon as his arrival became known af flicted peasants from all the valleys and mountains of the Austrian, Italian and Swiss Tyrol flocked into Merau and were treated gratuitously by the Duke, who in four weeks performed 53 operations for cata ract and 117 minor operations.

In order to capture these four delegates an equal num ber ot candidates for Governor have for more than a month past been employing all the artifices known to politics, from the still hunt to the brass band. The straggle nar rowed down at the finish, however, to a battle royal between Hastings and Dela mater. The campaign in York has been rather fitful. It has been dull and lively by starts and turns. Major E. A. Mon tooth opened the canvass lung ago when he dropped into York on his way home from Washington. It happened tbat the County Committee was in session. He was called in and introduced to them and made a rat tling speech. Then in the evening be was taken around the Grand Army posts and he and the other ''old boys" had a jolly time together. Major Montooth is popular, and 70 per cent of the Republican members of the Grand Army of the Republic, who con stitute about two-thirds of its membership, would like to vote for him for Governor. ALL WANTED TDK DELEGATES. No movement-was started for Major Mon tooth at that time, and not long thereafter tho Stone men began a boom for the Secre tary of the Commonwealth. They say that tbey were prompted to this course by what seemed to them to be a determined effort to set up the county in favor of Senator Dela mater, through the County Committee, against tbe sentiments of the people. What would have amounted to an extensive move ment for Mr. Stone had he been Delamater'a only competitor was started, but it did not go lar until Hastings went into the county lor a few hours and saw bis friends. Since then it has been a Hastings and Delamater fight until recently, when it became a Hastings and anti-instruction fight. Senator Delamater was here Friday, Sat urday and Sunday of last week. He was met by George S. Schmidt. Mr. Schmidt is Chairman of the Connty Committee, and an out-and-out Delamater man. He brought to town a number of the members of the com mittee who are favorable to tbe young Sena tor, from Crawford connty, and he consulted with them as to what tnu prospects were and bow tbe fight should be made. This visit gave to the minds of the Hastings men an impression which bad already been re ceived by Stone's supporters that tbe party machinery of tbe county was being used to further the candidacy of an asDirant for the Governorship, who, to -say the least, lacks general popularity in York County. It was to connteract this that Hastings came to the connty on Thursday, and he had a reception wherever he went. EFFECTING A COMBINATION. At one time this week the fight looked as though it would be made by Hastings against the other three candidates combined. The Montooth men and the Stone men went to Dr. James A. Dale and other Hastings managers and tried to make a deal. Their propofition was that Hastings take two of the delegates, Montooth one and Stone one, and that the three forces combine against Delamater The Hastings men told them very frankly tbat tbey did not consider that such a deal would be to their advantage, in asmuch as they were confident that they had the popular sentiment ot the county and expected to have all the delegates in structed for their candidate. Failing to make terms the Stone and Montooth men were at first inclined to join the Delamater people in the fight against instructions. At the last, however, the Montooth and Stone men nearly all supported tbe Hast ings' delegates. There was the usual amount of talk of the use of patronage and of the promise of office to influence the result. Here it seems to be used mostly in the Dela mater interest The censns enumerators for the county have not been named as yet A census enumeratorship has apparently been promised to about one Republican in each four in tbe connty. The appointments are being held back, and the men who have been promised places were afraid to turn a hand for the other side. In the face of all this, however, Hastings has won a great victory and Delamater has been decisively defeated. THE SESSION WAS VERY DULL. The Methodist General Conference Recora- mends Itennlon. St. Louis, May 17. To-day's session of the General Conference of the M.E. Church South was the last at which new business could be introduced, and it was unusually dull.

Tbe committee held that the spirit of tbe church had al ways been broad and catholic. It had wel comed to membership all who wished to be saved, and had resolved to lead a new life withontTegard to race or color. The policy would never be abandoned. As for organic cnion with the memorialists, tbe committee would regard it as an unmixed evil. The committee wanted those who had made division to make overtures for reunion. Tho vote of the conference was unanimous in favor of the report. A resolution condemning Sunday news papers was referred to the Committee on the Sabbath. INCREASING IN INTEREST.

The Senator Is a rain or shine candidate. His acceptance of the nomina tion is not contingent on the selection of Delamater or any other Republican of the opposite party. Six counties have thus far selected dele gates favorable to Wallace, and his friends, wbo claim to be well informed of the situa tion, predict bis nomination on the first bal lot Chauncey F.

DEAD, NOT WEDDED. A Yonng Italian Instantly Killed by an Electric Wire on THE DAY SET FOR HIS MARRIAGE. J - Touch of the Fatal Current and Ills .,.- Vorm v,..,ml. R,f(, n- . .. ryo . u W?" AIAfttoriSSES TO TOE TEAGEDI. The Wire Insulated is the Moat Perfect Manner Knows to Science. A young New York Italian leaned from a window last evening and tonched an electric light wire. Instantly his form stiffened in death, and a moment later fell to the ground. The young man was to have been married later in the evening. rSPBCIAL TELXORAH TO THB OISPATCBT.1 Ne-wYokk. May 17. Sebastian Yppo lito, a young Italian, who had planned to make this his wedding day, laid hold of an electric light wire for support in front of 167 Broadway, where he was at work at C o'clock in the afternoon, and a moment later he fell dead at the feet of the passing throng. A current more intense than the one which it is de signed to use to kill Eemmler passed through his body and to the ground by way of an iron bar fastened to the iron front of tbe iron bnilding upon which Yppolito'a foot was resting. Only two or three, as far as known, witnessed the tragedy, and they say that the man's death was instantaneous. KILLED WHIM: AT -WOKK. Yppolito was a bootblack, 23 years old, and he lived at 65 Mulberry street He had a fruit tand beneath the stoop of the building 165 and 167 Broadway, and he paid for tho privilege by keeping tbe windows clean. At the time he met his death he had been at work for abont 15 minutes wash ing the windows ol the Inter-State Nationil Bank, which occupies tbe second floor. He had cleaned the large south window, and partly washed the corresponding one north of it. He stood upon the stone sill, about 10 inches broad and the water running down wet tbe soles of bis shoes. He stopped once or twice to lean over and look down at his stand under the stoop, which he bad left in the charge of a young boy. To do this he had to lean ont a little way from the building, for a swinging awning, which at times was pulled up to within a few Inches of the wall, somewhat interfered with a clear view. The last time he turned to look down ha slipped slightly, according to the best in formation available, and swinging around so that he almost faced the street he stepped with one foot npon an iron rod about one inch square which projects from the build ing to support a swinging sign. IT WAS INSTANT DEATH. At the time he put up his left hand and instinctively clutched one of fonr elec tric light wires which enter the building iust north of the window at which be had been at work. Instantly his frame grew rigid. He shivered and his face be came set; but there were no con vulsions and no expressions of pain. A little curling thread ot blue smoke rising from the man's hand where it grasped the wire drew the attention of those wno were looking more at his attitude. When they saw it they suddenly realized that they were watching a tragedy. Beiore a man could move or an outcry conld be made it was all over. In a very few seconds less than a quar ter of a minute the figure which, statne like, stood clntching the wire, suddenly collapsed and pitching headlong to tbe steps which lead from the sidewalk a few feet below to tbe lunchroom in the basement or first floor. The current which killed him came from a wire protected by the very best insulation now in nse. It was a wire heavily covered with black insulation, than which nothing better is known to science for overhead wires. ORIGINAL PACKAGES IN KANSAS. Liquor Is Openly Sold In Topeka for the First Time Id Years. Topeka, May 17. For the first time la five years intoxicating liquors are being sold openly in Topeka.
