vs. I'AI.MKI:.

WASIUNCI'ION,April t.—Senator Chandler (N". 11.) made a lengthy speech '1 uesday in opposition id the joint reso]nt 1«ii introduced by senator Palmer (HI.) proposing a constitutional amendmen! for the, election of I'uited States senators by direct vole of the people

No Demand lor Mto (linage. Senator Chandler said the time might come when lie would bo convinced that such a proposition might be submitted, but he was not convinced of it at the present time-, lie said Unit then: was no demand for the change that there had been no grievanee shown, no Injury done, mi suggestion that unless the change was made rich men would break into the Semite. He did not. propose to gratify the Farmers' Alliance by voting lor a constitutional amendment for which he thought there was no occasion.

Attacked ien. I'almur'fl Heeord. Senator Chandler went on to speak of the evil of caucus government ami oi caucus nominations, and to argue that the present system of electing senators w»s much less liable to fraud and abuse. He then turned his attention to Senator Palmer and his political record, finding special fault with an allusion in Senator Palmer's speech some time ago to the last election of Gen. Logan to the senate by a trick. He thought that the senator might have allowed that distinguished man to rest quietly in his grave without attempting to put upon his name any tant whatever.

No IteOceUoii on Logan.

Senator'i'ulmer disclaimed any idea

eratic voters) of a repiibiican named Weaver, who had frone throiif li the district as an insurance aevnt and been elected before the democrats knew that there was any opposition iu the district- He had characterized this as a trick, nud it had been laughed at as such in Illinois but he had not intimated that Gen. Logan had any knowledge of it.

Degraded Condition of V»t«r«. Senator Chandler resumed and finished his speech against the constitutional amendment. Another objection which he urged against it was the present condition of suffrage in the United States, lie spoke of the suppression of popular suffrage in the three fctates of South Carolina, Mississippi and Louisiana .ami of the degraded condition of the voters in all the p-eat cities of the union. The vote in New York city, he said, was east by the ignorant, the degraded, tlie criminal classes of that city. And there was coining into this country nn enormous influx of foreigners, unable to read and write, defrraded in every way. incapable of casting an intelligent ballot, and who, as soon as they reached the country, were made voters without reference to the provisions of the naturali/.ntion laws whenever a. great political party -determined to bring them to the polls. This was the shocking and horrible condition of the suffrage lu America: and instead of undertaking to restore the suffrage to purity r.r.d integrity the senators who had made such long speeches in support of the constitutional amendment were gravely proposing to enlarge the sphere of popular elections and to make the first important amendment of the eontstintion in 100 years.

Chandler Concludes.

Senator Chandler did not see how the adoption of the amendment coird bring the senate any nearer to the people than now. Who could be closer to the people than the senators who had represented Illinois? Yates. Oglesby, Cullom and Palmer had been chosen governor by the popular vote and Logan had twice been elected congressman at large. Then Senator Chandler alluded to the war and said that Senator Palmer's views had changed since the time when he was a republican governor of Illinois nnd read a message which Senator Palmer had written.

Calmer'* Amuvi'r.

Senator Palmer replied as follows: "1 was in the army. It as not my business to look after the revenue. 1 helped to elect Lincoln. 1 had the utmost confidence^ his patriotism. I had understood through the newspaper* that the republicans had enacted a war tariff. If it had been twice as much and would have brought twice as much money I would havo favored it. I heard of the l*««ue of greenbacks and other matters of that sort. It was a matter of no oonsequence. I was ready to give the last man and the last dollar to put down the rebellion. I was iu favor of paying the last dollar of the war debt in gold, because we had told the country we would. I favored all the constitutional amendments. 1 admit that so thul there need be no trouble hereafter. I wrote that message my friend has road and 1 thanb him for doing so."

Not Afraid of Ihe I'opul.ir Voir. Senator Paltn?r said he had no feat of the popular vole. Most of the evils that could be traced to popular influences wero nothing as compared with the evil to be found where the popular will nnd the popular interests were disregarded.

Why Ho Herumo 11 Ocnuwritt. Tlie senator from New Hampshire had spoken of him as a republican senator. Not only that, but he (Senator Pulinor) had helped to make the republican party. He had been the president of the ifrst republican state convention ever held in the state of Illinois. While the republican party was being devoted to the uses for which it was made no granilei or nobler pujty had existed. It win only after it fell into the hands of met

who controlled it for the advancement, of their own private interests that it luul become the foe to the country which il now was.

Ciillnm Tnkr* llnml.

Senator Cullom (111.) had also something to say about the political incident which resulted iu Cien. Logan's last election to the senate. lie astcrted that there was no fraud in it. He did' not know whether Uen. Lojran knew anytliinir about it or not but he knew that in nil that long controversy—from tin middle of January to the tilth of May—it hud never been Insinuated that, there had been corruption or fraud on the part of nay body.

Helen-t*il.

The joint resolution for a constitutional amendment wa.s referred to the committee on privileges Hnd elections, and the senate, having- passed a limn-

I her of bills on the calendar, adjourned. DEATH OF FRANC" B. WILKIE.

BUFF.W.O, Wyo.. April I ft.—Latest reports from the scene of the lighting between the regulators and '-rustlers"say. that fifty cattlemen are surrounded at, the '1'.' A. ranch bv•"rustlers" and fontare reported killed. Klliott and Canton are with tbo cattlemen. Soldiers from l-'ort McKinnev are en route. I

After burning the Iv. C. ranch the Cheyenne division of the regulators moved toward UutValo and the rustlers organized and wont, forth to meet them. The cattlemen learned of the advance of the "rustlers" and took shelter in the T. A. ranch, li! miles from Buffalo, Monday morning the rustlers reached the ranch and surrounded the invaders and at daylight Ihe latter opened lire I upon their besiegers. Shots were exchanged all day long, but the numberof killed and injured cannot at present, lie learned. The cattlemen uitli their horses are safely barricaded inside the ranch buildings, and Tuesday morning one of them escaped through the. attacking party, presumabl on hi-, way for reinforcements. The result of Tuesday's work at the T. A. ranch is yet unknown.

Tii«- T. A. limicli CmitlrmiMl. Sheriff Kimball, of Converse county. received word from ltc.d Angus, sheriff of Johnson county, that the stockmen's party were at the T. A. ranch, 12 miles from Buffalo, and wore surrounded by I a posse- of BuO men determined upon capturing them. Three of the wagons containing the provisions of the stockmen had been captured.

The authorities here are guarding all the roads leading from the north and all fords on the Plaite river. The small ranchmen are coming to the Platte river towns, all fully armed and prepared to help the authorities preserve the peace if they are called upon.

The state authorities have ordered the stale militia in readiness to go to the scene of trouble. Col. Richards, commanding the troops, is securing horses here, if tlie militia arc called they will go north from this point, which is several days' march for mounted men from the scene of the disurbanee. .lilrk F1I*££'K Dash for l.lto.

Two men have reached here from Buffalo and report meeting Jack Flagg. whom the stockmen regard as the most dangerous "rustler" in Wyoming, at the Powder river crossing. 10 miles from Buffalo. I'lagg. who was on his way to the Cheyenne democratic convention. had just been pursued by a party of the. regulators at the K. C. ranch, and had escaped after a hard chase. He was riding unarmed 200 yards ahead of his son. who had his gun iu his wagon. At the K. C. ranch two armed men called on him to throw up his hands. lie recognized them as prominent stockmen and laughed at the challenge. One of them immediately fired «t l'lagg with a rifle, l'lagg turned and rode back to his son. He helped tlie bov to cut one of the horses loose and mounted him on the horse. Twenty of the regulators closed in-ou thein. but they rode their horses over a steep cliff and down a deep draw and escaped. Fifty shots were fired at them at close range, but they were not hit, and reached the Powder river. crossing safely.

Six Hundred Armed .Men 8klrml»liliiK. Two parties of armed cattlemen about .",00 strong are now in the vicinity of liuffaio. All are well armed and sparring with about the same number of "rustlers." Seventy-live armed "rustlers" stopped the Burlington stage conch Sunday and took from it one mail, supposed to be one of Fred Hesse's uieu. Couriers are notifying the cattlemen throughout this region of the country, and almost every cattleman is going to the scene to tight with one side or the other.

Tiip Killing Chiunpii'n nnl Itiiy.

Reports of the killing 'if two of the '.-rustlers'' on Powder river by the cattlemen's party were confirmed by niailoarrlers from the north. They report, that the tight occurred Saturday afternoon at the K. ('. ranch 30 miles from Buffalo. The ranch is the rendezvous for the "rustlers" of the region and the Cheyenne party of regulators expecte'd to capture eight or ten of them. When they reached there but two of the "rustlers" were at home. Tliey refused to surrender. and an attack was made oil the ranch. Nate Champion, one of the inmates, attempted to escape, but was shot and killed when 200 yards from the house. The buildings were then fired, and the other "rustler," Nick Ray. was burned to death.

IT IS A I'I'AI.L.LNO.

JACKSON, Miss., April 13. -The water in the Tomoigbee river is now falling. The number of drowned has reached 12fi. When the waters subside entirely it is thought other bodies will be discovered. It will be several days yet before the river gets inside iK banks. In many places it waupward of 10 mile* wide. Mounds that have never before been ovcrllowed were under 0 or 8 feet of water. Houses in numbers were swept away. Water is falling in the Itig Hlack river. All the work put on crop* will be lost. In the overflow districts many farmers had already finished planting both corn and cotton.

Siflfretfi of the Flood.

A genet al idea of the etfVets of tlie lloyd can be stated in this way A belt of country ranging from fi to ir» miles wide, running north and south, a range through the county, is one stretch «f debris made up of ruins of houses, fences and carcasses of stock, and it is doubtful whether there are left standing in that belt a dozen houses. The pitiful scenes of the last few days have opened the hearts of all, and public and private charity prevents the cruel suffering of those who were rescued. Jbit great need for help will come when the water subsides, ami then will be left in this place 1,000 to l.'JOO negroes who will not have one cent and no credit, and the places that were their homes nothing but mud holes.

A Sad Ktor.v.

NASHVIU.F., Tenn., April 18.—'The horrible loss of life across the Mississippi state line grows more appalling and the death list i* constantly increasing. The waters now cover the land for 70 miles south of here. Score* of houses, bodies of men. women and children, together with those of dumb beasts, are floating *on the muddy waters. Over 1.200 people are homeless. The Hood is caused by the sudden rising of sixteen rivers which form a network over north Mississippi.

Uafts, small boats and enne»s were built by the score and stocked with provisions. Daring rescuers have started out to carry aid to tlie sufferers. One ra ftsman rowed hirty-t hrce miles Inst night with twenty-six bodies piled on his raft with no lijjht but an oil lantern to guide him. ftvery hour or so a boatman or raftsman comes into one of the many landings with one to ten bodies, swollen, discolored and some of them beginning to deeay. Sixty-one bodies of both sexes have been recovered so far. The Hood is beginning to recede slowly. It is estimated the damage will amount to over 8*2.000*000.
