The Major and his wife, who is quite ill, have been visiting Mr. Taylor for several weeks. He is looking remark ably ell, and said he was getting all the ' lest hecouli', for he knew when the cam paign opened it would be a constant effort until election day. A ltnPUBMCAX YEAK IX OHIO. "When asked aboutthesitnation in Ohio.the Major said: "Well, Governor Hoadley says that Ohio goes Democratic every six years, and this is not one of the years. That is comforting to me, and I do not feel the fclightest doubt about the result I see General Warner in a recent interview in The Dispatch stated that I would lose more votes on the silver issue than on the tarilf. It was a good interview, and the General, you know, is a tariff man that is, one of the Handall school. "The farmers of Ohio are an intelligent people, and I don't think they care to sell a full bushel of wheat for a short dollar. Our people have always insisted on a sound currency, and I don't think free silver will have much influence in the fight. As for the wool men, they are not disgruntled :ibont the tariff They are getting more for their raw material to-day than they have received in the last three years, with the exception of a few months last season, and they are paying less for their manufactured goods. It is not true, either, as our Demo cratic iriends claim, that the importations have increased since the duty went into effect. They have decreased. The Demo crats are also divided on tho silver ques tion, and I don't think it will cut much of a figure. OPENING OF THE CAMPAIGN. "I will begin speech making August 21, when I will address a Grand Army reunion at Bowling Green. I am scheduled for 6omc time after that to speak at meet ings of farmers. Yes, I presume the ablest Republican speakers of the country will ttunip the State, but I cannot give the list at present, I don't just know who will come." The Major fonght shy of thi Senatorship question. When asked if Sherman would be elected, he replied: "The next Legislature will undoubtedly be Republican. It is not the intention of the people to be represented by two Demo cratic Senators. The election of the Sena tor rests -with the Legislature, and I am Burethey will do the best possible thing tor the people. I don't know that there is a fight between Sherman and Poraker. I am not posted, and haven't seen either of them for some time." HABBISOIf TO BE NAMED AGAIN. The Major thinks the next Presidental candidates will be Harrison and Cleveland. When it iwis suggested that Quay, Dudley and others were working for Blaine, he said lie didn't know anything about it. He had not seen Quay fur a long time. He was re minded that his name was frequently men tioned. "Oil, bosh," he replied. "I have one fight on my hands, and am attending to it strictly. I won't allow anything to swerve me from my course." His uttontion was called to the statements thatSocretary Foster was willing that con tributions should be leviod on the Ohio clerks in the Treasury Department for cam jviIrii purposes. Ho remanu-d that ho had seen the publication, but ho didn't under stand that assessments had been made or would be. He added that Secretary Foster would not do anything that was not right mid proper.

The Fanners' Alliance Is Remarkably Strom; in That State Democrats Will Have to Work Hard to Shake Them Off A False Move Made. rsrECIAL TELLGHAM TO THE DISPATCH. WAsniJTGTOjr, Aug. 3. A North Carolina Democratic editor, of social as well as pro fessional eminence, who stopped in Wash ington for a brief visit on his way from tho editorial convention atMinncapolls,says that the Fanners' Alliance there is very much stronger than persons in the North generally suppose, and that the Democrats are now -nakingup to tho fact that they made a great mistako in attempting to dicker with it, for every Inch of concessions made by tho Democrats the Alliance has shown its appre ciation by turning around and demanding an oil. It will be necessary, he believes, to call a halt on the timid Democrats and have a firm stand taken by the party before it is too late, lest the Alliance swallow it whole. When asked whether it 111 be possible for the Alliance to w ipo out the normal Demo cratic majonty of 13,000 to2L,000, beanswered that it was within the possibilities, but that he believed the Democrats would rally when it came to the struggle on national issues. Continuing, be said: "I am not sure that Cleveland would not be tho most promising candidate we could name-, as far as tho Alliance is concerned. It Is hard for any one who does not come into daily contact with thoso people to roallzo how very great a favorite Cleveland Is with the farmers down our way. They snap their fingers at tho talk about his being con trolled by their enemies, and they answer that he has been tried and they know all about him. Some of tho very traits which alienated the professional politicians from him are those which have made him strong with our country people." These opinions deiive extra weight from the fact that the gentleman who gave them voice was always a Randall Democrat as long as the Pennsylvania leader sat in his place in Congress, and is a convert from conviction alone. His Judgment and his forecast on political matters are respected at home, where their trustworthiness has been tested, and that he keeps abreast of the times is shown bv the exceptional fact that he is about tho only editor of a weekly in his Mate who is making money from his paper and declining political office, because he can't afford to bother with them. AN ALLEGED FRIEND OF BLAINE Declares That McKlnley ShonldNot Win In Ohio This Fall. rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TOE DISPATCH.l Coixmbcs, Aug. 3. There is a current ru mor here among the energetic supporters of JIcKinley, and strong friendB of tho Harri son administration, that tho greatest danger to the llepublican cause in the Ohio cam paign will be the indifference if not oppo sition of Secretary Blaine, and his following in tho State. This idea is strengthened greatly by the developments of the past few days. General James A. Hall, of Maine, an orig inal stalwart Blaino man, who came to Columbus years ago, has just returned from , Maine, and expresses an indifference as to tho result of the Ohio campaign. While he did not see Blaine, he saw a man close to hisi. Anything he-ays eomew of personal touch, with the Secretary. In conversation with an admirer of McKinley and Harrison to-day. Hall gave expression to tho thought that the high protection idea set forth in tho McKinley billand personified by his nomina tion for Governor, ought not to win and ho did not believe it could.

In Brad dock, North Braddock and Port Perry there are four clubs that will send delegates to voto in favor of Mr. Dalzell for President, and a reception here on the evening of the Convention w ill be a right royal one in a manufacturing town where Mr. Dalzell has so many friends.

When about a month ago, the Wilkesbarre Jtecord put forward ex Congressman Scranton, of this city, for Chairman of the Republican State Com mittee, the nomination was heartily seconded by the papers in this region and caused much comment among the promi nent politicians of this section of the State. Mr. Scranton was seen by a reporter to-dag and in an answer to a question coucerniny his boom, said: I am not a candidate in the sense of seek ing the office of Chairman of the State Com mittee, and will do nothing to obtain it. As to whother I would accept it or not If it were offered me, I cannot toll, but In my opinion it Is very doubtful that I will bo chosen. I have not been in the swim of State politics in ten years on account of my Congressional work. On tho other hand, Mr. Wntres is thoroughly conversant t 1th State riolitics and represents tho Republicans at larrisburg, consequently he would be a very good man for Chairman of the stato Committee."

MAJORITIES ROLLED UP BY THE DEMOCRATS IN KENTUCKY'S QTJIET STATE ELECTION. The New Constitution Adopted Almost Unanimously Alliance People Gain a Strong Hold on the Legislature Repub licans Were Not In It, " Louisville, Aug. 3 With a quiet election Kentucky has to-day elected a full State ticket, adopted a Constitution and chosen a Legislature to enforce it. Tho State officers elected are: Governor, John Young Brdwn, of Henderson; Lieutenant Governor, M. C. Alford, of Lexington; Attorney General, W. J. Hendrick, orFlemlngsburg; an Audi tor, Treasurer, Superintendent of Public In stmction, Register of tho Land Office and Clerk of the Court of Appeals. All are Democrats and go in by majorities ranging from 20,000 to 40,000. Tho Republican party has not had in A. T. Wood, of Mount Ster ling, so aggressive and popular a candidate as Bradley was four years ago, and tno Democratic majority will probably show an increase. Returns aro now in from only 50 out of 119 counties and returns are not full from these. The new Constitution has carried with a sweep, nnd tho majority for it is placed at anything from 50,000 to 100,000. It has not lost in a single county, and In some cases tho vote in its favor has been practically unanimous. That it would carry has been conceded ever since the Courier Journal with drew from actlvo opposition, but the heavy majority is a great surprise to its opponents. These have included some of the best-known and ablest public men in the State, includ ing Senator Carlisle and Governor Buckner. The People's partv has polled onle about 20,000 votes. These have come mostly from tho Republican party and from the cities. While the Alliance was supposed to be back of tho People's party, it has done very llttlo for it on account of dissensions which arose last January and which caused the retire ment from the Alliance Presidency of S. P. Erwin, the People's party candidate. The Alliance has devoted itself to the Legisla ture, and probably has practical contiol of that body, and so will control the revision of the laws uuder the new Constitution. In only a few Instances has tho Alliance put out candidates in opposition to the Demo cratic nominees, but It has taken care to control the Democratic nominations. So while the Legislature will bo nominally Democratic it will have strong Allianco afflU latlons and tendencies. This may make its interpretation of tho anti-trust, tho anti-corporation and the rail road commission features of the new Consti tution, very nearly what the Alliance lead ers desire. " In several instances where tho Alliance has made Legislative nominations, it has won This Is notably true at Owens boro, where Pettit and Berkhead, the Al liance nominees, have both been elected by 200 to 500 majority. Pettit is the lormer Reading Clerk of the National House of Representatives. As a beneficiary of the Democratic party he is bittetly condemned for his defection to the Alliance. He has never been a fanner, and is not a member of the Alliance. The Prohibition party had a full ticket in the field, but have polled a very light voto. AN ALLIANCE SENSATION. Third Party Leaders in Kansas Denounce the Sub-Treasury Scheme. rsrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. Topeka, Kan., Aug. 8. A sensation has been created in Alliance circles in this State by thp publication of open letters from W. A. Harris and C. W. Slium, prominent lead er" In th People's party, protesting against th"esnb-Treasury scheme, Harris is regarded as the safest leader in the Alliance camp, and would have been elected United States Senator in place of Peffer had ho not been a Confederate Colonel. Shum was the Peo ple's party candidato for Lieutenant Gov ernor last fall. The sub-Alliances through out Kansas this month will vote on the sub Treasuryscheme.to decide whether it shallbe incorporated in the People'slparty platform, and the indications now aro that it will bo defeated. Frank McGrath, President of the Alliance, has como out openly against it. Colonel Harris, declares that: "After a brilliant victory has been won Dy the Alli ance, tho so-called treasury scheme was brought forth a scheme In its essential features modeled after the most vicious and cornipt practices which we had condemned; a sclicmo patterned after the illegitimate loaning of money by the Government to tho National Banks and to railroads, and tho warehousing and storing of goods for im porters and distillers; a scheme to tax the many for the benefit of the few, and of even the most doubtful benefit to those fow." Ho says that "the substantial business men all over the country havo unanimously pro tested against it, and that it is certain to bring about the complete overthrow of tho People's party if not at once abandoned."

THE FEMALE FASHIONS MUST GO. A National Committee Chosen to Conduct the Coming Campaign. MISS WILLARD'S SEVERE AERAIGNILENT rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.) Chautauqua, N. Y., Aug. 8.-A great dress -reform movementlsabout to bo Inaugurated In the United States. It will be concerted and comprehensive, and embrace all tho schools, from the most conservative to the most radical. Tho crusade against tho pre--valltng fashions, whloh was begun at Chau tauqua about-a week ago, was the first inti mation of what was coming, but to-day tho secret leaked out, and it shows that the woman reformers are on the warpath and really mean business. Tho great trouble up to tho present timo with the ladies has been to get a leader, a sort of Martin Luther, as It were, who could precipitate a great rotormo tionin the fashionable world with some de gree of energy, enthusiasm and enterprise. The loader has just been found in the per son of Mrs. Frank Stuart Parkor, of Chicago, who so bravely nailod her dress reform thesis against the gates of Chautauqua about a.week ago, and has sincothat time been re ceiving delegations of women from all over the country in her suite of rooms hero, and defended her position and propositions in a way that has gained the widest attention all over tho country. On Mav 30 tho general officers of tho National Couneil of Women hold a very Important meeting at Indian apolis and passed a sot of resolutions that a crusade should be waged as soon as possible against the prevailing stylo of dress among women. inn FIEST MOVEMENT. The first thing aimed at was the adoption of a much-needed, more comfortable and sensible form of dress for women eugaglng in business avocations. This was to be the first of a series of proclamations emanci pating woman from skirts, garters, corsets, high heels, high collars In fact from every thing that handicaps the female sex from competing with men In the varions pro fessions of tho classes and ocenpations of the masses. The ladies say that the slavery of skirts must be abolished and hence they have just selected as a Central Commtttee the follow ing prominent women; Mrs. Frank Stuart Parkor, Chicago; Mrs. Francis E. Russell, St. Paul; Annlo Jenness Miller, New York; Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Ward, Anna C. Brackett, Dr. Mary Putnuin Jacob!, Miss Grace Dodge and Margaret Sangster. Prom the bondage of bustles and bands. fromthe constriction of corsets and collars, the ladies propose that the Lord shall de liver them, and henco the present crusade. Chautauqua seems to have Deen hit upon as the place to precipitate tho movement. A monster secret meeting was held here a week ago, and several men who had stealth ily crept in to get thelatst intelligence on the subject were summarily "bounced." DBESS REFORM'S CHAMPION. The system of skirt anti-slavery was thon unfolded by Mrs. Parker, tho Chicago cham pion and cultured propagandist of the new order of things. This lady is one of tho most charming of persons, and is tho wife of Colonel Francis Parker, the Principal of the Chautauqua Teachers' Retreat, and President of the Cook County Normal School in Chicago. Sho is an author, writer, lecturer and elocutionist; a very pretty woman, with classic features and expressive eyes, and is a most engaging conversationalist. She was a profossor some years ago in tho Boston School of Oratory. The now reform touches almost every article of women's apparel that is "fabled in song ana1UuInln.edia3tory',' nnd bonce will deprive the trousseau of many a girl of much of its tflory. Before mentioning the details of thenew system, it Bhould bo said that its first souffle with tho old sweeping skirt sys tem here has been most stirring and even sensational, for Chautauqua has four styles of dress in full swing, namely, the "no skirts'" the "old skirts," tho "dividing skirts" and the "apology for skirts (or trou serettes)," tho last named being worn by the gymnasium girls. 'The radical reformers go in for a slight modification of actresses tights, while others are less extreme, pre ferring Borne improvement on the divided skirt, which they say la too roomy, while the tights are not roomy enough. A SWEEPTNG CRUSADE. The new orusade la very sweeping, and will cut a broad swath In the domain of dress now solely inhabited by men, and the curious thing abouWt all Is that Miss Fran ces Willard has wheeled the whole National Temperance Union Into line in support of the movement. In hor very bright address here Saturday, entitled "A Whito Life for Two," she made some very striking and sug gestive remarks. "When we hoard what Mrs. Parker had been saying to the Chautauqua ladies about dress reform, we gave three cheers for her," said the great temperance apostle. And then she followed this up by somo startlintr statements. "This death line," suid she, drawing in the air with her finger tho out line of a woman's waist squeezed into the shape of a sand hour-glass, "I call It the death lino," and here her voice became stionc and resonant, her gestures animated and hor eyes flashing; "this lino has filled more graves than whisky." And tho great audionco in the amphltheaterapplauded her to the echo. Sho then told tho story of the mandarin's wife, who, when some Americans expressed horror because sho pinched her foot, exclaimed: "We pinch the foot, but you pinch the life." Miss Willard then added that she didn't believe that "any woman With tho con strained waist, the flaring hat and the high heeled shoes will bo allowed by the heavenly powers to invent anything." FEMALE FIGURE STUDIES. The reformers will endeavor by photo graphs, statues and lectures from prominent artists tochangotho present ideal of pro portion in the human figure. Thoy recom mend that each woman supply herself with a good photograph of the Venus Do Mllo. They also suggest the study of such figures as the Venus Genetrix, Juno, the Flying Victors-, Amazon, Thordwaldson's Eve, Richtei's Queen Louiso, of Prussia, Coming Down tho Stair, and a standing figure called "The Fates," by Thurman in fact, a studv of all tho most approved statues, m order to get the femalo eye accustomod, as the artist's eye is accustomed, to right proportions. -The reformers will try to make American women understand that barbarians in every age, with their limited ideas of real beauty, have deformod tho body in various ways, as tho Flathead Indians, who endeavor to change the shape of the head; the tattooing of various artistic designs upon the human body; the savages who put rings through their noses and sticks through the rims of the eats; those who hang heavy pieces of wood or Ivory on tho Ion or lip, cut oft" tho ejobrows, life or blacken tho teeth: the Lhinose, who deform tho foot or permit the fingernails to grow to tho length of yard, training the hair to grotesque forms, and lust hut not least, the crowning deformity of the compression of the waist: tho so-called civilized nations being tho only nations as yet who havo attacked a vital point.

HAHBisntmo, Aug. 3. Governor Pattison has sent tho following important communi cation to Secretary of tho Treasury Foster, asking for a full investigation into the man nefin which the State funds disappeared Sin the wreck of tho Keystono Bank of Philo idelphia: "Tho published renorts of tho commltteo appointed by Mayor Edwin S. 'Stuart, of Philadelphia, to Investigate the accounts of John Bardsloy, late Treasurer of the city and county or Philadelphia, seem to indi cato that a considerable proportion of tho moneys disappropriated by Sir. Bardsloy, nnd which made up his deficiency to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and to tho city of Philadelphia, was deposited in tho Keystone National Bank of Philadelphia, which bank has been closed, by order of tho Comptroller of the Currenoy. The apparent loss to tho Commonwealth and to the city of Philadelphia is about $1,500,000, in which loss tho State is largely concerned, directly and indirect-. "In view of this fact I respectfully ask that yon will authorize tho receiver of the Keystono National Bank to permit a com mittee of, three or five citizens, to be desig nated by mo, jo examine tho books, papers, accounts, etc, of the bank, with tho view of ascertaining what deposits of public moneys in which the State had or has an interest were made in said bank by John Bardsloy, and what became of the money thus de posited, so that the same may be recovered if possible. It is, of course, only desired that such examination shall be made as to the doposlt of public funds passing through the hands of John Bardsley, as Treasurer of Philadelphia and agent or tho Common wealth or Pennsylvania, and of such funds as the Commonwealth may be directly or in directly interested in, and it is respectfully suggested that such authority as you may give to tho receiver may bo limited accord ingly. "I have been awaiting the result of the in vestigation by the gentlemen already en gaged in the examination of the accounts and affairs of tne Keystone National Bank, in the hopo that their reports would havo contained the Information which It is Im portant that-the State's officers should have in their possession. But as an examination is being made by experts .designated by the Slayor of Philadelphia and by other expert accountants selected by the Philadelphia Counclimanlc Investigating Commltteo, I am of tho opinion that u like investigation should be made on behalf of the Commonwealth, and I con cluded that her interests require that I shall obtain tho desired Information as early as rossiblo and in tho manner I havo indicated, trust that you will see your way clear to accord the desired information at as early a dato as practicable, especially in vlow of the largo interests involved, and of their im portance to the people of tho Common wealth." Tho Democratic members of the jointleg islative committee, originally appointed to investigate the methods of handling State funds, bet continued in order to investigate the State Treasury and Auditor General's Dopai tnient, in connection with the Bards ley defalcation, will meet here to-morrow, and an interesting session is expected, in view of tho preceding expressed views of tho Governor.

A largo crowd of the shareholders were present, waiting for tho arrival of the Secretary, Mrs. S. F. Edwards, who resides at Roxborouzh, and who was late getting to the office.

CONCLAVE MUST BE HELD IS EOME. So Nation Bhould Offer Hospitality to the Sacred College. AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE IS NOT WANTED Rome, Aug. 3. "Where shall tho next Con clave be held" is the question which Is now being much discussed in Government cir cles. The church dignitaries are Interested observers. This question, it is believed, will be tho pivot of tho policy both of the Italian Government and of the Vatican. There is good authority for tho statement that tho Italian Government has sent ex plicit instructions to its representatives abroad to prevent tho Conclave from bolng held away from Rome. It dreads above all things a foreign Popoanda conclave away from the Eternal City. The account of the situation which follows reflects the opinions entertained in ecclesiastical circles. All the Italian Government's confidential negotiations with tho great powers aro be lieved to be inspired with this dominating idea: That Italy will respect and safeguard the liberty of the Conclave, and therefore no nation should offer its hospitality to the Sacred College should the Cardinals decide to bold the Conclave elsewhere than in Rome. NO OUTSIDE STJPPOBT 'WANTED. Italy hopes that her attitude will cause the Sacred College to abandon all idea of leaving Romo, or if tho Ideals still cherished privately, that tho design will not receive outside support. The Government would thus in the first place make It appear to the world that the Papacy Is free in Rome since Italy respects the liberty of the Conclave, and the Sacred College can sit openly in the capital of the Italian dominions and In tho second place would thereby maintain the status quo. In the diplomatic documents exchanged before and after the Conclave of 1878, tno Italian Government declared that thin Con clave gave conclusive testimony of the lib erty ol the Holy See under the new regime. In following the evolutions of Italian policy since 1S70, ono sees everywhere the firm res olution to prevent any modification or dis placement of the factors which compose the polito-ecclesiastic and Pontifical situation in Italy and at Rome. THE REASON EXPLAINED. The reason id manifest. Should any changa take place the Government would find Itself confronted with an entirely new situation. This would be the unknown, and the Italian Government fears the unknown, because it believes that tho existing conditions are safeguards of its regime, which, in tho mind of strict Catholics, bears the stigma of tho occupation of Rome and of tho law of guaranties. The meeting of the Conclave out of Romo would not only awaken, in Catholic and in dependent minds, the idea that the Holy Seo was not free at Rcnre, but It would also mark a new departure on the part of tho Papacy, tho beginning of a new era. In any case, it would render the future an absolute uncertainty. Perhaps it would be tho start ing point of the transformation of tho cen tral government of the church. Were tne Conclave to be held away from Rome It would immediately bring tho whole Pontifical question to tho front. The reop ening of the question morally and diplomat ically, ecclesiastically and politically, as it would bo opened, is what tho Italian Government wishes to pre vent at any prico. Therefore, fn giving assurance to tho Cabinets that it will respect the liberty of tho Conclave at Borne, the Italian Government virtually says that the Sacred College shall not be free to hold the Conclave where it pleases, as it should do, conformably to the needs of the Church and conditiou of Europe at that time. EMIGRATION OF HEBREWS. Baron-Hlrsch's Plan Approved by a Confer ence of French Associations. Paris, Aug. 8. A conference of tho French Hebrew Associations was held here to-day, at whloh the plans of Baron Hirschforthe amelioration of the condition of destitute Hebrews were discussed. The conference approved of the plan of the Baron aiming at the co-operation of the nebrews in Europe and America in the work of organizing the emigration. It was decided to again send delegates to Russia for the purpose of constituting a Cen tral Committee in St. Petersburg and of establishing provincial committees to bo charged with regulating the exodus. Emi grants leaving without tho sanction of tho Central Committee will have no share in the benefits of Baron Hiisch's arrangements. It will, of course, be necessary to obtain the consent of the Russian Government before these committees can act in Russia, but this con sent Is confidently hoped for. Baron Hirsch is making arrangements to secure the co operation of the German Central Committee In his plan as outlined above. COMMITTED AN IMPRUDENCE. The Cahensley Scheme Will Never Be Ac cepted by the Propaganda. Rome, Aug. 3. Tho recent interview be tween President Harrison and Cardinal Gib bons created an interest as an indication of tho importance attached in America to the Cahensley question. Tho Pope, Cardinal Simeon! and chiefs of the Propaganda have boen much impressed with tho declarations of the President. The tributes of tho Ameri can press to the wisdom of the Pope's deci sions are also greatly appreciated. Tho Holy See sincerely regrets that the friends of Mr. Cahensley havo spread a re-, port that Romo placed obstacles In tho way of his scheme. From the first tho Propa- Smda declared to Mr. Cahensley that tho oly See would never accede to the de mands for national bishops. Cardinal Sim oon! and Monslgnor Persico both assert that the -Cahensley scheme will never bo ac cepted by tho Propagauda. "Never," they declare, "will it accord such prerogatives to immigrants.

Republicans Attempt to Surprise tho Garri son and Are Defeated. Barcelona, Aug. 3. Great excitement was caused in this city last night by what was believed to be a revolutionary movement on tho part of tho republicans, but which sub sequently proved to be a desperate attempt upon the part of certain speculators on the Bourse to bring about a decline in the prices of tho securities dealt In upon the Exchange. A band of IjO men, somo of whom were armed with rifles and others with re volvers in their hands, cautiously ap proached the garrison of the city and at tempted to surprise tho guards. Tho sentries, were vigilant, however, and soon discovered, the approach of tho men. The guards ordered the band to halt and givo the countersign. The men made a rush upon tho sentries, trusting that In the con fusion which would follow they would bo able to force their way into the barracks. As they ran toward the sentries they deliv ered a volley from their weapons, and some of the guards fell to the ground, having boon struck by the bullets of tho aggressors. Tho other sentries, however, stood their ground and answered tho volley with a fusillade from their rifles. For a short time a regular battle was fought and a number on both sides were wounded. A number of arrests were made, including well-known Federal Republicans. The latest report justifies tho belief that the affair was a genuine revolutionary attempt on tho part of Republicans.

Ex-United States Marshal Hopkins has Just returned from Bridgeport, Mino county, where he in vestigated for the Chinese Consul General the murder of Ah Quong Tir by Nevada Piute Indians. Ho brings amass of affidavits which show that previous story did not tell half tho horrors of this monstrous crime against a poor defenseless Chinaman, who was first robbed by white lawyers and then abandoned to the vengeance of the Indiana 1 aoanuonea. to tne vengeance c 0v thoSheriffandhisofllcers. -Ovrill be remembered Mmt h nn TV tho eubse.,.

When arrested twolawvers pretencwd to get a confession from him that lie killed the Indian in self-defense, but on the trial the Chinaman denied ho had mads anysnch confession, and on the evidence produced he was promptly acquitted. PELL, AMONG PHILISTINES. His lawyers, Parker Murphy, took all tha Chinaman's stock of goods for their fee, al though he had refused to givo them a bill of sale which they asked for. He agreed to pay them $1,000 If they cleared him, but his goods were worth between $1,000 and $3,000. After his' death tho claimsof the twolawyers were settled for $000 by representatives of tho Chinaman's creditors, but many of tho goods had been sold at low prices, and tho remainder were seized by the public admin istrator. When tho Walker river Indians came Into town and threatened to lynch tho Chinaman tho Sheriff swore in six deputies and guarded the jail, but on tho day of tho trial, as soon as he had delivered tho Chinaman at tho Court House, he left tho prisoner unpro tected, although the street was full of ex cited Indians clamoring for his blood. Affidavits havo been presented that Chair man Hunnewell, of the Supervisors, and a merchant named Hughes advised the In dians Just before the trial to kill the China man, as it would save the county; tho costs of the trial. Two other white men encour aged Indians to seize the prisoner and butcher him, and reputable witnesses will swear to this. NO NEED OF A PANIC. A claim was made that citizens were ter rorized by the armed Indians who threat ened to sack the town unless tho Chinaman was delivered to them. Tho real facts aro that only seven of the Indians were armed, three with Winchesters and four with pistols and one determined white man with a revolver could have stood off the wholo crowd. The butchery of the Chinaman was done by the Government Indian police from Walker River Reservation, and as described "by the woman who saw it through field iglasses, was very horrible. Tho Indians backed off tho arms and legs of the China man while living. Then they disemboweled him and cut oft his head, which they used as a football, playing the game with tho ghastly head in tho sago brush. The Chinese Consul General is determined to pres3 tho case and demand 'that those concerned in the outrage be punished. M'CAMANTS TAX SCHEME. He Says the Present Is Wrong and Advo cates the Budget Plan. rsrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCn. Harrisburg, Aug. 3. Auditor General Mo Camantis preparing his reply to Treasurer Wright, in reference to the abuses in the mercantile apprasier system of as sessing and collecting. In this connection tho Auditor General declares that the pres ent system of collecting State taxes Is all wrong. It is too cumbersome and expensive. The Auditor General favors the budget sys tem, which might he applied In two ways. First, a commission would sit each fall and determine on the amount necessary to run the State Government during the fol lowingyearaud to defray the expenses of counties and townships, municipalities to levy taxes for their own expenses. The Auditor General would wipe out all, or nearly all taxes but the Income, which he considers the most equitable method of taxation- The adoption of this idea, however, would be a radical departure from the laws now on the statute books and has been de clared to be Inquisitorial, therefore the Au ditor General .suggests another method of simplifying the collection of State taxes. This is to prepare the annual budget ot tha cost of running the State and assess tha counties upon their valuation. DRINKERS MUST OBTAIN LICENSES.
