The senate has passed a bill to relieve the legislature of claims bills, whose consideration now occupies about one-half the time of the sessions. It is a substitute for the bill which was vetoed by the governor last week with all the objec tionable features eliminated. It provides that there may be suits on claims against the state in the superior courts. The bill should become a law. The evil of considering claims against the federal government by congress lias been recognized for many years, and many attempts have been made to secure their reference to a court. The same good reasons apply as in cases against the state. The time" of congress is often con sumed for days over a claim of a few hundred dollars, while the cost in thus considering it counts up in the thousands.

The Evansville Journal is moved to recommend that city as a good locatron for a normal school by correspondence which it says is being conducted by persons interested in educational affairs. The Journal says:

There appears to be an opening, if not a demand, for such an institution, and it might possibty prove to be pecuniarily remunerative to individuals or a stock company. Evansville and the cause of education would certainly be benefitted by its establishment.

The Journal says that besides those, like the one in this city, that recive state aid, "there are private or corporate ones which in some cases prove successful rivals of tlio&e that receive state aid." Our contemporary thinks that a normal school at Evansville would command sufficient attendance from southern Indiana, southern Illinois and. western Kentucky to make it successful.

The more that is learned regarding it the less the Pearson appointment bears inspection or comparison with other appointments made by the president. The latter is appreciating this fact, and is trying to explain his action. A semi-official statement has been given to the mugwump papers. This iB what he says: 1 am under great, blieation's to the liberal republican press, and 1 must repay the obligation in some way which will properly express my appreciation of the services rendered Shortly after the Now Year I had conveyed to Mr. George William Curtis an intimation that 1 should like to show my sense of the importance in which I held his most valuable assistance, and that rendered by the Now York Times, Herald and the' Evening Poet during the canvas, by a consultation with himself and the gentlemen representing tlxoBe journals as to the best and most proper mode of acknowledging this obligation in some official way before the country, The proposition was met as I felt it would be, in the spirit I made it.

The New York Sun, which has been trying to support him since he Avas elected, thus displays its impatience with the above statement: "Repay it how By the bestowal of office upon the 'gentlemen who had brought to mj support the important journals mentioned According to this, the president himself suggested offices to these gentlemen otherwise, why should ho take pains to tell the public that all of them positively declined "Now, if suoh was Mr. Cleveland's view of what Messrs. Curtis, Jones, Schurz and Bennett might liko and if he was willing to evince his gratitude by giving them important places under the government, what becomes of the theory that appointments to office must not be made solely in recognition of service to a party or its candidate f"

The inconsistency in the respect to which the Sun refers is equally shown in the president's action in removing the Rome postmaster. The mugwumps who went into eastacies over the appointment of their fellow mugwump Pearson heartily indorsed the jemoval of the Rome postmaster on the report of an inspector who investigated his office. These same mugwumps, however, could not see any justice in the removal or a failure to appoint in the case of Pearson against whom there had been made reports bv five in•«iV -v.',, spec tors.

Philadelphi Times (Ind.): It is a case of bitter-sweet with General Black, commissioner of pensions.

Washington Republican (Rep.): So gallant a soldier as General Black should not have selected a woman as the recipient of his first blows.

Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph (Ind.): The request for the resignation of MiBs Sweet, pension agent at Chicago, is one of ,_the straws showing which way the much-i^H^lked-of civil-service wind blows.

Philadelphia Press: Commissioner Black announces that he cannot say anything for publication concerning his demand for the resignation of Miss Sweet, the pension agent at Chicago. We shouldn't think he could.

Washington Post (Dem.): The administration will probably have no hesitation in accepting the issue made by its Chicago pension agent. It should not take long to decide which of the two is running the government.

Syracuse Journal (Rep.): Miss Sweet's removal in the face of the repeated assurances Cleveland has made, will throw another side-light upon the character and purposes of the present administration as regards the vaunted civil service reform. Turn on the lights.

Pension .Commissioner Black has' the advantage of him. ife Boston Transcript find.): ptiss Sweet having fulfilled requirements, her question "Why should I- be requested to resign?" is perfectly natural and proper. Such questions, however, are calculated to upset any system of political patronage. Here is some very new and freslfc material for the latterly somewhat stale and unprofitable discussion of women's entering politics.

New York Tribune (Rep.): The performance becomes still more shameless in the case of Miss Sweet, of Chicago, whose resignation as pension agent was demanded by telegraph because a.city election is about to take place at Chicago, and that corrupt and shameless* demagogue, Carter Harrison, the friend of blacklegs and election thieves, is agafn the democratic candidate. It was represented to Mr. Cleveland that the party was greatly discouraged by his delay in dividing-, the spoils, and that further delay would result in a defeat at Chicago. To avert this result the resignation of a. worthy official was not only demanded, but demanded with telegraphic haste. Perhaps it was demanded the more readily because the father of Miss Sweet, General B. J. Sweet, was an "offensive partisan" in 1864, and detected the plots laid by Mr. Lamar's friend, that eminent democratic thief, Jacob Thompson, to burn northern cities and to release captives from northern prisons. Between stinging memories of the past and greedy hopes for the future, the reform democrat could not allow a daughter of General Sweet to retain office until after the Chicago election.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

Lively Session of the Senate.

Sr. Wiilard Resigns a Chairmanship Because He Has Been "Snubbed"—Action OB Appropriatlon Bills.

Indianapolis News. When the senate was called to order this morning, after the formal opening proceedings, Senator Wiilard tendered his resignation as chairman of the finance committee, which was accepted. It is understood that Mr. Wiilard feels thai he has not been treated with due consideration by Lieutenant-governor Manson. It has been customary, where there is a necessity for a conference committee between the two houses on the appropriation bill, to make the chairman of the finance committee one of the members. Lieutenant-governor Manson, bowever, yesterday appointed Senators Magee and Youche as. the members of the conference committee on the part of the senate. The relations between the lieu-tenant-governor and the senater from Lawrence have not been of the most cordial nature at any time, and when Senator Magee, instead or himself, was appointed, the majority member of the finance committee, Senator Wiilard, regarded it as a "snub," which he thought proper to resent by resigning as chairman of the committee which placed him in a position to be "snubbed."

Representative Toner's bill, giving county auditqrs authority to loan surplus school funds to other counties, was

The house bill prohibiting the sale of dangerous toys was finally passed. Shortly after 10 o'clock the senate re solved itself into a committee of the whole for the consideration of the specific appropriation bill, with Senator Wiilardin the chair. No one seemed to know anything about the merits of the different allowances in the bill, and the only member capable of giving any information in regard to the matter was Senator Wiilard, the ex-chairman of the finance committee. After proceeding blindly for half an hour, without making any progri the' time being consumed in such inquiries as "who knows anything about this item?" Senator Wil lard was asked to give the committee, out of graeiousness, the benefit of whatever information he had about the different claims. He refused, however, to comply with the request, stating that as chairman of the finance committee he had carefully studied the general appropriation bill, until he was thorough ly familiar with every item that it contained yet, contrary to a long-established custom, the finance committee had been practically ignored in the consideration of the bill. He had "washed his hands of tlio whole matter," and the committee would now have to get along without any further suggestions from him. Nearly the whole morningiwas wasted in wrangling over motions. Nothing whatever was accomplished up to the noon hour, when the committee took a recess until thig afternoon at 2 o'cloek.

Senator Magee presented a report from the conference committee on the general appropriation bill. A compromise on the senate amendments had been agreed upon by the committee, allowing $10,000, instead of $15,000, for additional w&ter supply at the Insane hospital $13,000, instead of $20,000, for repairs to the State university at Bloomington $12,500 for new buildings and machinery at Purdue university, $1,200 instead of $1,400 a year to the adjutant general $250 instead of $650 a year for the expense of distributing public documents $1,200 for a clerk to the auditor of state $600 instead of $1,000 a year to the deputy attorney general. All the other senate amendments, including $24,000 a year to Purdue university, were acceded to. The changes were explained by the members of the committee, and the senate concurred in the report of the committees.

At the opening of the house, this morning, the pending order of business was the consideration of Senator Winter's bill regarding decedents' estates, and it was passed by a vote of 72 to 8. Mr. Reiter introduced a bill authorizing citizens of any- county to form voluntary associations for the purpose of insuring property from damage by fire or lightning, and it was passed under a suspension of the rules, by a vote of 67 to 7. Mr. Smith introduced a bill to relieve the city oi Terre Haute from further liability in t}ie matter of repairing the State Normal school building, and moved for a suspension of the constitutional rules, but when pronounced objections to the bill were developed, he withdrew the motion.

Mr. Copeland offered the following: Bo it resolved by the house of t^presentatives, the senate fconcurring, that wfe, the representatives of the loyal people of the State of Indiana, sincerely deprecate the position the present administration has taken in overlooking thousands of competent and loyal citizens of the United States, and continuing to insist upon the confirmation of that bitter, unconverted and unhung rebel, General A. It. Lnwton, as minister to Russia, although he has never been relieved from his disabilities as a rebel.

The resolution was laid on the table amidst great confusion, and afterwards the author made an ineffectual attempt to call it up. In explaining his vote, Mr. Deem said something about "cheap buncombe," which brought Mr. Copeland to his-feet with the exclamation: "I have heard enough of that kind of talk here, and I don't propose to stand any such imputation from you," He was called to order, and there, was no further wrangling.

Senator Mc. Cullough's bill, providing that incoitiorated towns and cities might, if they so desired, employ township assessors to make their local assessments, and county treasnrers^to collect their municipal taxes, without providing special officers for these purposes, was passed. Ayes 83, noes 3.

Senator Brown's bill, providing that polling places on election days shall be opened at 6 o'clock a. m., was called up, and the republican members, who had previously voted against the measure, changed front and supported it, and the bypassed. Ayes 68, noes 12,

mmm

-i—- -s -*?—^*-^ur once fitiled pass Ixcatise it 'did*iun .£* ceive a constitutional majority, was called up in the house yesterday, and by a vote of 65 to 18 wis enacted. The only thing now necessary to make it a law is the signature of the governor. The bill provides &at the qualifications for the practice of medicine within the state shall be an experience of ten years as a practicing physician, a diploma from a reputable medical college, or a license from the board of censors of a legally organized medical society. It requires physicians to register in the office of the clerk in the county where tbey reside. The object of the measure is to prevent Illinois and Kentucky quacks from locating'in Indiana, and to regulate the practice of medicine, as far as possible, by requiring a standard of qualification.

Origin of the Trouble Between France and China. Boston Globe. ,vS-

older to "understand from what small beginnings great difficulties may arise, it is well to go back two years for the purpose of seeking the causes which have led to the present differences between China and France. For many years past France has had a colonial establishment in Cochin China, and has used this as the basis of certain exploring expeditions into the country to the north. Indeed, in 1875 a treaty was made with the government of Annam, by which, in consideration of the protection which the French government offered, the emperor of that country agreed to extend to the French certain trade privileges. In consequence of this treaty certain adventuresome officers of the French army and navy made explorations throughout the Annamese territory, and came to the conclusion that it would le eminently desirable if France 'could, at no great cost to herself, obtain a complete protectorate over this country. But as late as two years ago the matter was still in an undeveloped condition, for on the 13th of March, 1883, a discussion of the following tenor took place in the French senate:

M. de Samt-Vallier, who had evidently been posted by the government—for M. Ferry had then just been made premier, and was anxious to inaugurate a brilliant foreign policy—questioned a minister of foreign affairs on the situation of the French colonies, and especially Tonquin. The senator pointed out that France was losing her markets in the east in conseuence of the absorption of these by 'ngland, Germany and the United States. The only remedy was to create new markets or develop old markets by means of colonies. France had done well in Tunis, and he felt that it would be her natural destiny to do equally well in Tonquin, if the government would give its assistance toward the establishment of colonies there and insure the free navigation of Red river, thus placing French commerce in direct communication with the southern provinces of China.

The minister of foreign affairs replied that the views expressed by the senator were in a great measure shared by the government. It was felt necessary to extend French interests and influence among distant populations, which had been misled as to ner situation by the results of the war with Germany. The government, in its colonial policy, he. said, would be guided by two rules, namely, to eschew romantic enterprises, and to enforce French rights whefever they were established by treaty. He regretted that the sovereign of Annam had violated his treaty, and recognized the suzerainty of China, and that-he had even permitted the persecution of French subjects but this was a state of affairs that would soon be ended. No one contemplated the conquest of Tonquin, but it was necessary to pursue an energetic policy. After the Easter vacation, the government would submit definite resolutions,' which were now in preparation, these contemplating the outlining of a policy which would consist in occupying certain points in the country, in order to show that the French colonists meant to remain, and to secure protection for.French citizens, as well as tor foreigners.

It will be seen that this was by no means an ambitious policy. It merely contemplated certain trading relations which it was thought would be beneficial fo French commerce. The native juris* diction was respected, only France was to insist on the enforcement of the laws, and was to have something to say relative to their formation. If at that time any one had asserted that this was but the first step toward a war with China, which would involve the expenditure of millions upon millions cf French money, and the sacrifice of thousands upon thousands of French lives, the French ministry would have repudiated the idea. There was admitted to be a certain degree of jealousy existing between the French and the Chinese upon what was asserted to be a purely theoretical question of whether the emperor of Annam should or should not each year formally acknowledge his imperial neighbor at Pekin as his superior. But this was looked upon as a matter of trifling importance. Yet the history of the past two years has shown how easy it is to develop a small misunderstanding into a great war.

FASTED TILL DEATH.

Kate Smnzley, the Fort Plain Faster, Dies Without a Struggle. TROY, N. Y., April 10. —Kate Smuzley, the Fort Plain faster, died to-day without a struggle, in the presence of her family and physician. The funeral will be held Sunday at II a. m. from the German Lutheran church in Fort Plain, the Rev. King officiating. An autopsy will be held to-morrow at the request^of medical men from all parts of the country. Over a year ago Miss Smuzley contracted a mysterious disease, and from a few months after that time to .the day of her death, she partook of scarcely any food. Dr. Kaller and scores of persons of repute will vouch for the truth of this statement. Miss Smulzev had been lying in a comatose condition for several days, otherwise there was no change from her general condition, and death was expected at any day, but she gave, no indication of it until the last moment. She had kept up courage from mere will power in the hope of recovery. There is no doubt that from March 11, 1884, till the day before Thanksgiving last she did not eat anything. Upon that day she experienced a sensation like something breaking away in her stomach, and since then she had been able to take a little nourishment in the shape of wine whey. She was very mnch emaciated and weighed scarcely twentyfive pounds. The family are German Lutherans. She was born at Fort Plain, October 24, 1864, being twenty years, five months and sixteen days old. The family do not desire a post-mortem examination. It will be remembered from accounts already given that she had been ailing from a weakness since. October, 1882, and that her^disease had baffled all physicians who visited her. She was at first attended by Dr. Snyder, and upon his death by Dr. Ayers and other noted physicians from abroad, who all expressed themselves as having never seen any case like hers. She leaves an aged father and mother, a brother and two sisters.

Kentucky.

.1 Joke

Washington Letter, The nomination of Buck to be minister to Peru is a great joke on the Kentucky delegation. Buck only came from Mississippi a few years ago, and is a sort of ^naturalist, but in no 'sense a politician. His Kentncky neighbors regard him as a sort of a crank, and when he notified them .that he was going in for an office, they laughed in their sleeves and signed his papers. So did the congressional delegation, and armed with them he went to Bayard with Lamar, as he is really a bright man. Ludar's influence secured l.i„j the nomination, Senator Beck jt mad as he Can be, but was dumbfounded, when he protested toBayard, to find his name on Buck's application. He said he had forgotten all about signing it, and immediately took it off, but the nomination was sent in all the same. Beck says he has nothing against Buck, but he does not want places credited to Kentucky that are real! Mississippi.
