National debt, the taxes have lieen large

in this r.spid way and reducing taxes, the
I.'iuoi-ratie administration finds itself
face to face with a trouble that never
bothered any otiier nation, and that is a
surplus, which it says shall only be re
duced by striking at the roots of our pro
t.s tive system, and iu this way attacking
our credit and proserity.
t u country has sustained serious losses
in the death of many of it distinguished
statesmen, generals and scientists during

as tiie greatest mania-fore the public, and j
saij that his death would la- greatly felt. j
" 1 knew him intimately." said the sac of
Ijochicl "and it seems sad tiial he should
have lwvn called away iu the very prime of
hi physical and mental manh.aHl. He made
a good tight, but the malady from which he
suffered had tia finn a hold iisni bis splen

tieneral Cameron said he first became ac

he (Cameron I was ap;aii!itcd Minister to
P.ussia. At that time he was violently as
sailed by some enemies, and Mr. Conkling
defended him as he alone could. From that
on to his death tliere was the friendliest f.-el-ing
1x4 ween the ap-d statesman and the New
Yorker.
" In his social life," said Genera! Cameron.
" Mr. Conkling was kindly and very com
panionable, lieing lively and very fond of a
joke. Many a time he has driven me about
the outskirts of Washington during his resi
dence there, and on these drive we learned
to know each other better than we ever did
before. His was a brilliant mind, and I ve
no dolibl that he would have again risen to

gestion that the 3oi survivors attend the fu
neral should be carried out.
Suspending the Tariff Fight.
WtsuitiiTos, April ID. The IVnuarats,
in their double purp.isc of political maneu
vering and preventing Southern appropria
tion bills from suffering by the President's
veto, have pot the House business into such
a tangle that the tariff bill has lvn tempo
rarily laid aside. Mr. McMillcti and Mr.
liurrow s were to sja-ak on opM.ite tides to
day, hut immediately after the oja-ning of
the session Mills mdea
indicated that the debate
statement which j
w as not to be re- !
sinned until next TucsJ.iy. He said that it
was though! advisable to allow the Appro
priation Comniiltis? to get consideration for
some of their bills, and he suggested that
they take the time at once.
No objection was offered and the Indian
Appropriation bill was taken up. Mills' ac
tion was the result of the Ik-mocralic caucus
of last night and appears to have la-en pre
liminary to a pro.rrani!iiL. which islob-ar-rautred
after consultation with the Kcpuhli
oui members of thr Committee. The gen
eral opinion at the caucus waji that tiie tariff

allow otla-r hnifrtaiit busimss to be discuss
ed and thai l0 couimitua.'s decision w iil
simply show a-iiat tbjt Democrats regard as
important enough to iuUTjVro with their
aelHiue of revenue reform.
The It.-i'ukhcaus of the committee ill
not have much to do ia tiukhiK th'-dis-
! ions, but the)' w ill not advocate a)- wi
i delay in bringing the tariff bill to a vote,
j S far as liecn.a-r.itn o; .in ion is conccniud it
sta-ms to bt the almost unanimous licsifi;
that Fritlays shall still be left for the con
sideration of private bills ; that the Commit
! tec on Public Lind; should have at least a
day ; that Pacific railroads should be consid
ered ; that the District bills, which were for
ced out of the way by I lie effort of the brig
adiers to whip the Northern faction into
submission, should have, their regular time
on Monday ; that the P.ist Office Appropria
tion bill should have a chance, allJ that the
lliver and Harbor bill should la- discussed
and finished, all in the time la-fore the tariff
could laawibly la" completed.
These and several other SKX-ial ot tiers and
measures are all a Iviawicd vigorously by
lVmocrats, and the free trade leader fear
that unless concessions are ma lo to tliem
they may make trouble when their vote are
wanted on the tariff. The leaders, of course,

Senator Cameron" Tribute to His
Friend.
Senator J. IVnald Cameron, of Pennsyl

sa-akiug of Mr. Conklinn's death: " 1 am
deeply grieved. He was a noSie-hearted
man, true to his friends and a worthy foe.
Tliere is nothing more precious to me than
was his friendship. We, who fought that
last preat fight a Chicago for our erand com
mander. General Grant, should assemble
somewhere lo do honor to the memory of
our companion, Il.ttcoe Conkling."

eViiator J-tay, of Pennsylvania" I was
one of the immortal ?oti, as we were called.
There IU the certificate of my membership,"
continued the Senator, uiiitiiig to a glass
p:ia-r weight which lay upon his writing
table. " Senator Conkling was my ideal of
a great statesman. I might go further and
say that I p-gard him as the greatest of all
Americans. He was not a leader. He had
I none of t'te qualities which make successful
leaders, hut intellectually he had no peer
anions his countrymen. I should have
liked before his death to sec him ill line w ith
the Kepublir.ui party again. I think, had
the uomiiiatiou this year been acceptable to
liii , that lie would have ariicipatcd active
ly ia the campaign. In my judgement, had
he lived, matters woiilj have so shail
themselves as to give him great prominence
iu his party councils again before man years
had passed."

tile treasurer of the company is required
to deduct the tax upon their par value
when aying interest ii)ti the bonds. A

OHIO REPUBLICANS.
Foraker Chosen to Htiad the Oeiega-

Convention met here to-day, with Ceneral
J. Warren Keifer as temporary Cli airman.

THE riiTroKM.
The Committee on Resolutions, through
its Chairman, Hon. Charles Foster, reported
the following :
The Republican party of Ohio in conven
tion assembled, reaffirming the platform of
137, adopted at Toledo, present the follow
ing additional declarations :
First. Free and nntramtneled suffrage
lies at the ibundation of the Republic, and
its restoration by every constitutional means
in States where it has been overthrown or
inquired and its maintenance everywhere is
our settled and determined purpose. We de
nounce the Democratic party for its nullifi
cation of the war amendments to tlte Con
stitution, whereby the Republicans of the
South are practically denied a voice in the
Government of the nation and the ajwer of
the Democrats of that section is unlawfully
augmented. We charge that the IX-mocratic
party is now in tlie enjoyment of power con
fessedly pnarured by the unlawful suppres
sion of the franchise in the Southern States.
We affirm that the acceptance of a)wcr thus
secured, the apparent purixiso of the party
to continue the methods mentioned and its
shameless defense of the criminals who, in
the States of Maine, Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio, have sought to stifle the popular will
by frauds and forgeries, justifying us in
charging that it has practically become in a
national sense an organized conspiracy
against free aud fair elections. In view of
these facts, and believing that to deprive the
legally qualified voter of his franchise or to
iuqiair the public confidence iu the fairness
of the count is to weaken and ultimately de
stroy free institutions, we call upon the pa
triotic citizens of Ohio to rebuke the iwrty
res(ansihle for these crimes against suffrage,
aud we demand of Congress that, in the ex
ercise of its constitutional authority, it enact
such laws as will insure freedom and fair
ness in the elections of representatives to
Congress.
Second. We favor such economic legisla- I
tion as will protect all American industries j
that can be profitably pursued by American j
citizens ; wc insist that our producers are en- j
titled to the control of their own markets to
thecxteiit of their ability to supply them ;
we denounce all efforts to open those markets
to competition with the cheap lubor and
abundant capital.of foreign nations as hostile
lo the interests of labor and destructive to
national and individual prosjieriiy . We re
gard the last annual Message of the Pn-si-dent
and the recent action of the majority
of the Ways and Means Committee as a di
rect and oja-n assault upon these industries,
which will, if unresisted, result in intnaluc
ing a alicy of free trade that in the near fu
ture will paralyze or destry our own indus
tries, reduce the coma-nsaiiun for labor and
impoverish the nation.

Fourth. Thcja-ople of Ohio unqualifiedly
condemn the n-fusal of the Democratic ma

H-rniit the (wssage uf the Direct Tax Re
funding bill passed by the Republican Sen

loyal States, without interest, the money
tid by them at the beginning of the war to
aid iu -suppressing the rebellion, and lo can
cel the tuiHiid balance, principal and inter
est, due from the rebel States ujam said
taxes, and we denounce as treacherous and
cowardly the surrender of the Northern Dem
ocrats in Congress to the small minority of
the ex-Confederates and their allies, and the
abandonment of the bill, which,- if passed,
would have contributed nearly $1..VX,1) to
the relief of the tax payers of Ohio.

J everal weeks, as he was stopping at tbesarae
j jKllej witn Wr. Blaine and his family. He
says he had several long and pleasant talks
with Mr. Blaine, but did not mention pol
itics. "The talk of him as looking like a broken
down old man is nonsense. I know seTera!
gentlemen in Pittsburg who were at -college
with Mr. Blaine and he looks no older than
tney do. He was active, took long drives
with his family every day and went on ex
cursions just like the rest of ns. Then the
story of bis being fed on skim milk is not
true. I don't know this to be untrue, but be
dined with his family at the hotel restaurant
the same as the rest of travelers. In a word,
he gave me the impression of beingan elder
ly gentleman out with his family for a pleas
ant holiday. His memory is wonderful. He
knew mc at sight asked ni about my fattier
and the Gazdte. my father at the time of his
death being one of the pniprietors of the
Pittsburg Cvuuiurcvit Gnseite. but Mr. Blaine
hadn't heard of his death. For two hours
he talked over old reminiscences of Western

house with the constable says :
"When the constable and a few others
went to Tubbs' house they found the family
consisting of himself and wife and four small
children, the oldest but seven years of age.
jaisitively destitute. The poor woman had
no shoes, the little ones were barcfated, and
such few clothes as they possessed were in
sufficient for the demands of even ordinary
weather. Beyond the stolen flour there was
not a sign of food alaiut the bouse, nor had
there been for ovir two days. I verily la
lieve the poor man was driven to steal the
Hour to save his family from starvation.
When they look Tubi away his poor wile
stood leaning against the door, the most pit
iful sight I ever saw. She seemed absolutely
heartbroken and discouraged, and 1 actually
cried myself as I looked at her."
An effort w ill he made to secure relief for
the man's family.
Death in the Flames.
St. Lot is, April 20. A frightful fire gut
ted the Bethel Home, a big lodging house
last night and caused the loss of several
lives. The building was five stories high.
The fourth floor was filled with thirty
white men, while forty colored lialgers were
asleep on the fifth fhsr. Tiie fire, which is
believed to have been of an incendiary
origin, started under the stairwav of the
second floor. Most of the men were ii
drunken stupor when amused by the flames
and smoke. Their exit was rut off from Ihe
stairway and they had to slide down a rope,
which Bill Anthorr, a negro, found in the
fifth story. There was a general scramble
for the rope and several men came out of
the windows with their clothing on fire-
John Miil.me, the night watchman, after
giving the alarm, heroically saved Alec
Well, a cripple, bringing tliesuff.a-ating man
down the rope. Three dead laxlies have been
taken from the ruins. It is not known how
many perished.

Leaping from the Flames.
New iokk. April 21' luc tire net. which
will no doubt be adopted by the Fire lie
part nient here, and is the htest device for
saving lives in case of fire, was used lo cxi-el-lent
advantage to-day in the Hurley rag shop
fire at 7 East Third street. Several per
sons saved their lives by jumping into the
net. The building was filled with highly
inflammable matter and burned rapidly.
Dense volumes of smoke and scorching
flames drove back the brave firemen and
territii-d the occupants of the buildings.
The fire broke out shortly before 0 o'cha-k
this morning. Sixty men and women were
employed in the buildings. All had narrow
cscais, and the rescue by the firemen were
decidedly romantic. The loss to stock was
f 12,000. One woman, Winnie Leonard, 63
years of age, was hemmed in by smoke on
the fourth floor and suffocated. Four men
and one woman were injured more or less hy
fire and smoke. The firemen claim that the
escapes were practically useless.

Phelps Once More
WAsnisoTos, April 2.I. It is conceded on
all sides to-day thai Minister A.J. Phelps
will be nominated for the chief Justiceship.
The president is not iu the habit of confiding
to senators what he is going to do regarding
important appointments, but iu this instance
he is rqxirted to hare said to at least one
democratic senator that the selection of Mr.
Phelps was finally determined npon. He
spoke to this senator in such a decided man
ner that the nomination was looked for to
day. When Secretary Pruden arrived at the
capitol in (lie course of the afternoon with a
number of messages from the White House,
a number of senators at once rushed to the
presiding officer's desk and glanced at the
manifold copy of the appointments sent in
but among the list the name of Mr. Phelps
did not appear. The reason for the delay is
explained upon the ground that tlie presi
dent desires to observe the month of mourn
ing fur the late chief justice which will end
next Friday before sending in the nomina
tion of his successor.
The selection of Mr. Gray was really never
seriously considered by the president, though
a u umber of senators urged tlie president
very strongly to apjint the seuator from
Dele, are. The president, it is understood,
was willing to appoint Mr. Gray to a place
on the bench as associate justice, but uot as
cheif justice, and this determination oti his
art was reached, it is believed, njan the re
presentations made by members of supreme
court themselves, who for obvious reasons
would not relish the idea of having so young
a man as Mr. Gray, who has neither exper
ience nor training, as a judge, to preside
over their delila.-ratioiis. The general ob
jection raised by the committee on judiciary
in the case of all nominees for the bench
alaive the age of GO. Mr. Phelps is 6T years
of age.

their fire through the d.xir and killed Hart,
whose body was found afterward in the

being rousted or shot, and preferred the lat

rushed out, with a revolver in each hand, to
be met with a volley from the Sheriff and his
guards.
Johnson fell iijain his face, but raised him
self upon his elbows and fired both pistols.
In an instant he was riddled with bullets.
