SOKE NKW SENATOBS.

A worse ihing about Roach than the record he made in Washington as a bank cashier, says the St. Louis Globe correspondent from the Capital, is the immediate chain of circumstances by which he finds himself in the Senate. There is something wrong about the election

of a Democrat to the Senate by' a Legislature which has a Republican majority of a dozen or more votes. Roach's bank affair concerns him individually. His election by Republicans is stain on a whole State—that is, if there is such a thing as political prinoiple. North Dakota Republicans put selfish ends above party. Montana Democrats did the same thing. Populist Burgard's boast of how ho made John Martin Senator from Kansas is part of the same general tenden.'/ which has introduced such extraordinary elements into the Senate.

A Democratic Senator frotr a Stato where the Republicans are in the majority!

A Republican Senator from a Statu where the Republicans are in the minority!

A Democratic Senator whose seat was given him by a bogus Legislature after a Populist had stuffed a caucus ballot bos!

A Republican Senator by appointment from a State where rival factions of the same party sacrificed the election soonei than yield or compromise!

A Senator who has been Republican, Democrat and Populist by such rapid transition that even the locality of hitseat in the Chamber hardly designates his present status!

A Democratic Senator whose election is denounced by his own party from one end of his State to the other as the work of "the lumbar ring!"

A Democratic Senator who was openpronounced unfit, and against whose election a protest was publicly made by the President elect!

To the Semite reconstructed with the aid of such new elements and of such unprecedented methods the President must look for co operation in his selfconsecration to reform.

Tnii demand for oflices at Washington is so great that the Democrats have begun "to eat each other up." President Cleveland and his Cabinet officers have given every assurance to the "spoilsmen ana politicians" that the changes in the oflices thnll be swift and complete. The progrmume is to turn the rascals out." The clamor about civil service reform is only to detract public attention from the slaughter of Republican office holders. The most venomous among the Cabinet officers in this respect is that great and good man, A\ alter Quarrelsome Gresham.

TEE county commissioners or Howard county have issued an order directing the railroad companies whose lines cro&s that county to station flagmen at all crossings throughout the county where switching or shifting cars is required to be done. This order is designed to prevent accidents. As it will necessitate the employing of flagmen at all sidings in the county where a wagon read crosses them, at least where care are being shifted, the outcome will be watched with interest all over the State.

THE attack on the pension law and list is growing in Democratic papers, Here is the cruel way the ex-Confederate editor of the St. Louis Republic talus of the veterans:

The promise of relief through the death of the pensioners is a fallacious one. They have no intention of dying. When everyone else now alive is deud 'there will Btill be pensions to pay on account af the civil war. There is no reasonable doubt of this. Nothing promotes health and longevity like a pension.

THE United States Supreme Court this week rendered a decision which, it is claimed, destroys Edison's quadruples telegraph patents and also three michrophone patents. If this is true the Bell Telephone Company will after January nest be left with no patent protection except the Berliner device, which haB several competitors. What the public is interested in is cheaper telephone ser-

THK report of the recent Congressional investigation of Superintendent Porter's administration of the Census Office has just been printed, and not only declares the charges made by the Democratic press unsustained, but endorses Mr. Porter's acts in every particular, And it was a Democratic committee that made the investigation.

THE ax of Maxwell, Cleveland's heads man, swings high these days and the heads of third and fourth class postmasters are rapidly falling with a dull sickening thud.

OFFICE seekers from the Ninth District will please send their applications to James Murdock whose postoffice dress is Lafayettee. Editor Brown, civil service reformer of the Frankfort Crescent, had his (hovel in for thi« po-

adthe

sftion but he was turned down by Murdock.

Aiii is not lovely in the Democratic camp. This from the Frankfort Crescent shows that there ia a lly in the Democratic ointment:

If Mr. Cleveland will assign the whole editorial and corresponding force of the Sentinel as consuls to Timbuctoo, and then lose their address, he will confer a lastiog favor on the Democratic party of Indiana.

Lay on McDnff. Let the fight go on.

MAY WHEAT DROPS.

A Day of Excitement on 'Change In Chicago.

A DECLINE OF SEVEN CESTS A BUSHEL

The Cudahy Brothers, Who Kiiffineerecl the Deal, Said to ilave Cleared 8100,000—The 1'uu Apparently Not Over.

A BIO WHEAT DRAL.

CHICAGO, March 30.—One of the biggest deals of the year has just been carried out in the wheat pit of the board of trade. By clever work on the part of a clique, of which John and Michael Cudahy are supposed to bo the heads, wheat was forced up to 82 cents. At this price the other traders were eaprer to secure it, and while they were wildly buying- all that was offered the brokers of the clique unloaded between 8,000.000 and 4,000,000 bushels. When this was discovered the traders were as crazy to sell as they had been to buy, and in a few minutes the price broke 7 cents, falling by successive movements of one cent to 75?4 cen' where it rested. Slowly the market recovered, struggling from T5}£ cents to 78cents, where it closed.

By the deal it is said that the members of the clique cleared over 5100,000 without parting with any great amount of their wheat, as what they sold at the high figures they subsequently bought back when the low notch was reached. It is said that no failures will follow, as most of the firms had believed the market was under too strong a tension and had taken care of their own interests. The loss falls heaviest on outside dealers, or "the country," on stop-loss orders.

More Irons In the Fire.

That this deal is the only one the Cudahys planned is not believed by anyone. They have already ac-x quired control of the 11,000,000 bushels of contract wheat in the elevators here, and are prepared to pay for as much more if the people who have wheat in Minneapolis, Duluth, St. Louis and other places can find storage room for that amount here. Armour «fc Co. and other elevator owners are emptying the bins of corn, oats and barley in their houses into the holds of the vessels in the river to make room for more wheat. They are also chartering vessels in Milwaukee and elsewhere to come down here and receive sorao of the grain they are ridding themselves of.

Cheaper la Other Cities.

Wheat can be bought in Toledo la cents per bushel lower than May wheat sold at in Chicago. It can be bought in St Louis for IB cents less per bushel, in Minneapolis for 17 cents less and in Duluth 18J£ cents below the Chicago value for May delivery. Even New York cash wheat is tj cents per bushel below the price May wheat sold at here. Those are the inducements which are spurring up the elevator proprietors to get rid of everything else and keep their space for wheat. The storage capacity here is equal to about !!0,000,000 bushels.

The present deal is the most gigantic one ever attempted in the history of the grain trade of the world, and mighty forces and accumulations of capital are arrayed against each other.

A Defaulter.

BUFFALO, N. Y., March "0.—Charles F. Tomes, local manager for the American Preservers' company, is a fugitive. He left a letter saying he was a defaulter. His shortage is placed' at somewhere between SL0.000 and Si0,000. The company's bank books have disappeared and it is believed Tomes took them with liim. Race track gambling and heavy plunging in bucket shops, together with extravagant living, are assigned as the causes of Tomes' shortage.

Hepublicaus at a Banquet.

CANTON, O., March 30.—Four hundred republicans from various Ohio cities attended the tariff banquet held in the Tabernacle,a mammoth structure dedicated to political purposes, Wednesday evening. Addresses were delivered by Senator Sherman, Gov. MclCinley, ex-Attorney General Watson, of Columbus Hon. P. C. Young, of New Lisbon Hon. I. J. Squire, of Toledo Lion. S. A. North way, of Jefferson, and Attorney General Kicliards.

To Succefd ComixiJssiuuor Oivon. WASHINGTON, arch 30.—President Cleveland has nominated Herman Stump, of Maryland, to be superintendent of immigration, vice William D. Owen, resigned. Herman Stump is a well-known member of the Maryland bar. He served two terms in congress and was chairman of the house committee of the last congress. He had always been prominent in the politics of his state.

ment in 188U. He was the first mayor and was re-elected for three successive terms, operating his farms meanwhile, la 1889 he was Democratic candidate for governor and was defeated by some 14,000 majority. In 1S90 ho was again his party's candidate and failed of election by only COO votes. Mr. Roach was married in 1872 to the daughter of a Washington physician. His wife died in 1880, leaving two sons and a daughter. Eight years ago Mr. Roach was the only Demerit in the North Dakota legislature.
