Assistant General Manager Tucker said at r.can that the report sent out from Chicago as to the.

He -s.id that passenger Ira: o were running as usual between this city and Chicago, and that as many freight trains as could be made up were beine started,. Mr. Tucker said he did not think the road-men had Iim ordered, out at last night's meeting In Chicago, for the reason that they have do organisation there, r In the St. Paul yards at noon routine work was proceeding as usual, east and west-bound freight trains being handled without delay. Employes generally, however, are sanguine that tbey will be ordered out soon, and some are cotSdent that instructions to this effect will be promulgated by 4 o'clock this afternoon. Secret meetings of St. Paul switchmen and brakmen were held at tbeir hall last night. .Those who attended give evasive answers as to the business traofa.-.ted, but it is understood that the sentiment of tha men was in f avoir of throwing . up their situations the Chicago complication can satis-'Nly and speedily adjusted. vfEciaI, who dame up on the train -morning, said that all traintiuiexcessive excitement . uprising if they were all out . . ; Chicago passenger train doe (r -' ' , . d an hour late, owing to a deat Chicago.

At St. Paal. St. Padl, March 31. There was no indication cf the strike of the switchmen on the Milwnkee roads in St Paul to-day, and the'officials of that company did not think the trouble will extend to the northern divisions of the line. The St. Paul Men Propose to Arbitrate. Chicago, March SL Along the lino of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul road freight business was eompletely paralyzed, and passenger trade almost entirely suspended. The cif.rning passengsr trains were on time, as the jiows of tbe strike which had been ordered at miinzht had .not reached isvbefors they wcve reached, however, ea i j .) ucuj. whisnared to the eneineer thai -strra . a .j i .j j was reached, where the passengers allgi pi; then it was backed out to Western avenue avta,' where it was abandoned by the crew. Tbis afternoon the enpineers, firemen and switchmen of the St. Paul road held a meeting and decided to send a committee to the officialir at tho road to sueaect arbitration. Superintends ent Uarlifi!?, at the request of the committee,! J visited the meeting, ana tee men iaia ceiore r him a proposition whereby they agreed to handie empty but not loaded "Q." cars. Mr. Earling asked tbam to submit their proposition in writing, and agreed to forward it to General Manager Kosweli Miller, at Milwaukee. Fifty men, who are regular freight and passenger cooductors on the Council Bluffs division, arrived at the round-house this morning. They were brought here by the St. Paul people to il the places of the striking engineers, firemen nnd switchmen, but after a talk with liberty, the leader of the St. Paul men, tbey decided that cot a man would throw a switch. Xtocfoits en Koute. Milwaukee, - March 3L A special to the Evening Wisconsin foin Janesvilie, Wis., eays & train load of passenger and freight conductors, with a sprinkling of switchmen and brakemen and one or two yardmaster, left for Chicago tr.U morning to take the places of strikers in the switchvirds. They are non-union recruits from the Prairie du Chian and Mineral Point divisions of the St Paal road. Officials of the roa l at Janesviflle say a general order to strike v. ill be obeyed with great reluctance by men onttiietof Chieaeo, as work is hard to get and all are anxious to hold their places. They will sustain tho strikers at Chicago, however, and have mada an assessment for that purpose. ' Strike Note. . Chicago, March 31. Daring the day as many as a dozen men called on the Mayor with complaints against the Chicago, Burlington & Qnincy Eia oarers. They claim that they were induced to come here from tbe East by promises of positions a brakeusen, switchmen, etc.. made to thtnu by the Chicafo, Burlington & Qnincy roacssement, and on their arrival were declared ir.co'-.ipetent and refused either work or" trai.?uortation home agaio. They are without aio-u-y, they say, and in bal plight generally, aiiil'hev as companions io their misery two or tirt'ff- hundred ethers whose condition is exactly similar.

switchmen during the p Vt week' with the new men in tho Chicago yards; the signers find them to be thoroughly i competent end very carefuh llnch pruiatont.ia being indulged in regarding th departnra of Chief Arthur to Cleveland. , Some newspaper and railroad ofScialj, psrtisularly those of the Bnrliagton, regard it as an aeknowledgemect on iis part that the Burlington strike is a failur. and that he is disgusted with the new turn of affairs. Chairman O'Brien, of the engineers' press eommittee, emphatically denies these statements, and says that Mr. Arthur has gone to Cleveland, the headquarters of the Brotherhood, t meet the executivo advisory board of thoordeit and to transact tome private business at his home. He will return in about a week. Captain White, superintendent of the railway

mail service, went out to the yards of theCbicaco, Milwaukee & S4 Paul road at Western avenue to-day. Ther was some little delay, he said, bot he remainedthere to see that all trains due to depart from tbe city to Minneapolis, Council P.inffs and Qmaha were made up. Superintendent White sas while there is coma possibility of delay m the service he does not expect any serious obstruction as the transportation cf the mails, unless the striKe extends to tbe passenger dooots i of the roads now involved, j The train of BarliTiirton cars that had been shoved upon the Dke Shore tracks during the morning were nt touched until well along in the afternoon. Finally the order was given by the Lake Shoro pfSc'.als that the cars be cared for and sent a'ocg toward their destination in the East. To the surprise of tbe company's representatives th order was obeyed. No other Burlinetoo cars were in sight and there wa3 notbing apparent to disturb the serenity of the men or their superiors, bot the talk " a strike was redoubled. It soon came to e understood that the cars were handled as a tsenporary shift, and that a strike might be inaugurated at any moment It was currently rumored at the stockyard to nizbt that all the switchmen, engineers and Crimen employed by the Unicn Stockyards and Transit Company, which hes , exclusive charge of all cars received at the yarOs, would go out before Monday. Tne company .Jandled a number of Burlington cars to-day. , TALK WITH THE CHIEF. ' IJe IJoea Not Think the, Tronble Will Extend Beyond Ch:ago. Cleveland, O., March 31 To a Plain-Dealer representative to-day Chief Arthur said, in answer to an inquiry whether or not he intended to resisn his office, owing to tbe revolt of the radical element in tbe Brotherhood. "No, sir. The radical element, as you term it, represents but a small percentage of the Brotherhood. The vast majority of oar members sustain the conree ot tho executive officers. Until stch time as the opposition may gain the ascendency the officers will stick to their posts and do their duty. I have no'intention of resigning." "The afternoon dispatches state that all tbe eneineers on the St. Paul road have been called out, and that tho strike is likely to extend to every road loading out of Chicago. What do you know about these movements?" "Nothing. The men are striking on their own accord. Thev will not receive the support of the Brotherhood. They can not receive that without my sanction. I nave ordered no strike nor given my permission to anyone, except he Burlington engineers, to leave their pots. Circumstances might arise, of course, waich would induce me to sanction such strikes, bnt they have sot np to the present moment." "What is the status of the strike?" "There is no change. The Burlington company is not doing at the present moment 10 per cent, of their regular busiQ ess. It is simply a question of endurance; how long will the stockholders of tbe Burlington ; road submit 1 to the ruinous policy pursced by the president and general manager of that road. Even if the strike should be ordered off to-morrow it would be a year before the Burlington could recover its normal traffic which has been diverted to other roads. Tbe stockholders have vast financial interests at stake and it is not probab'.e that they will deliberately wreck the prosperity of thoir valuable property to achieve a hollow victory over the engineers." "Do you think that the strike will become general!" "I do think that it wilL If we had listened to the importunities of the hot-heads, every road in the country would have been tied np to-day. It lay in the power of the executive officers to stop railroad traffic in the United States entirely, bnt we refused to do so. These new strikes in Chicago are iroetly local and affect business in Chicago. I believe that the different roads will reconsider their action in compelling their men to handle "Q" cars, and that the trouble will be settled that way. Please understand that the Brotherhood has not ordered any strike except that of the Burlington. Tbe men are acting on their own responsibility, aad will not receive a cent from tbe treasury of the Brotherhood unless we sanction their conduct. The Santa Fe strike was an outrage no, I do not know as I will say that; it was a grave mistake, which we rectified as soon as possible. There has been no conferenso in this city between officers of the Brotherhood and the Lake Shore management. The grievance eommittJe of the Lake Shore road is in Chicago and will attend to their own affairs there." In conclusion Chief Arthur repeated, "I do not intend to resign. We expect to freeze tbe Burlington company out. We have not ordered any new strike. We do not approve of strikes. We have received assurance from members of the Brotherhood all over the country that they will furnish financial aid. It is simply a question of endurance. I do not believe the strike . will spread outside of Chicago to any extent. The conservative engineers still control th Brotherhood." GENERAL LAKOR NEWS. Wages of Coke-Workers to Be Keduced oa Monday. Pittsburo, Pa.. March 31. On Monday cos oij reduction of wages, ranging from C to 10 per. :U, will be posted throughout the coke region.

There is danger of a Klior panic here on account of the stagnation of the hatting industry, due to cntting of manufacturers' prices and the opening of small shops throughout the neighboring country. Twenty-fire hundred batters tiro now out of work, and the list will probably be swelled to several thousand by next week. C. 11.

FOR INDIANA'S CANDIDATE

A Michigan Man Expresses His Unqualified Admiration for General Harrison. He Wants to Vote for Him for President, Be- - cause He Thinks He Wonld Fill that High Office with Signal Ability. 4 The Republican Minority's Report to the House oh the Mills Tariff Hill. The Bar of the District Fays Tribute to the Memory of the Late Chief-Jnstice Waite Other Washington News. A HARRISON MAN. One -Who Admires tlx General and Gives Solid Reasons for His Preference. Special to the Indianaeolis Journal. Washington, March 31. T am a Harrison man, every inch of me. I attended the Detroit banquet a few weeks ago, and heard General Harrison speak. His was by far the best speech of the night, and demonstrated that he is not only a great man with his tongue, but a statesman and a gentleman." This was the way ex-State Senator J. S. Estabrook, of East Saginaw, Mich., began, this evening, to tell the Journal correspondent wnat he thought of Indiana's f candidate for- the presidency. Mr. Estabrook is one of the leading lumbermen of the Saginaw Valley, has had a good deal of experience in public affairs, and stands as high as any Republican in Michigan. 'T would be very glad," continued Mr. Estabrook, "if Michigan gave some or all of her votes in the Chicago convention to General Harrison. I was completely captured by him when I met and heard him at the Detroit banquet, although I had known a good deal of him in a general way prior to that time. And what was true of myself can be truthfully said of every man who attended that spread. What we want as a candidate for the presidency, and as a chief executive, is a man full of the vigor and enterprise of early life; a man of integrity and spotless character; a man who knows law and justice, and who recognizes the rights of the people; a man who has fought for, and worked with, and been one of tne masses, and who has brought himself up to tbe qualifications of the office by his own energy; a man who has demonstrated his ability to fill the office with credit, and who will not be an experiment; a man who will not only make a successful and admirable campaign, but who will make a President of tbe people and by the people. General Harrison, of 'Indiana, has all of these qualifications. He is a eentleman and statesman; I admire him, and I hope 1 will have an opportunity to vote for him." In referring to the general principles which are to control the coming campaign, Mr. Estabrook said: "It is going to he a strife between tariff protection and free trade. i is a strugele on the part of the Democrats, who would put our own workingmen in competition with the paupers of Europe, and the Republicans, who believe in protecting the interests of tbe laborer. After all, tariff protection is protection to labor. Take my business as an instance. If lumber is made free, I will be compelled to curtail my outlay for labor fully one-half at first. My pay-roll amounts to $5,000 a month, and I am but a small lumberman in Michigan. Free lumber means $3,000 a month wages, instead of $6,000, to my laboring men." UTAH AND DAKOTA. A Warm Time Looked for In tbe House When Springer Reports His Bill. Special to the Jtadlananolis Journal Washington, March 3L A lively time is expected in the House when Mr. Springer calls np his bill to make four new States out of as many Territories. The Republicans and Democrats who believe that Dakota should . be divided and the southern half (admitted to statehood instead of the whole Territory being made a State, against the wishes of a large majority of citizens there, will make a strong fight against Springer. Then will come in the advocates of statehood for Utah, and the question of polygamy, and the fieht will wax warm. As I stated some weeks ago, there are quite a number of Democratic members of tbe House who take the Republican view of the Dakota question, as well as the Utah question, and there is no way of telling what the result will be, further than that the wishes of the people will likely prevail. Utah will not be made a State now. There is a determination, which is not bounded by party lines, that the inhabitants of Utah must reform themselves and abandon their polygamistic habits before they can hope to get license from the federal government to make their own laws and set np State institutions. It is believed that behind the Utah statehood movement is tbe Mormon Church, and that the object in getting statehood is to give this institution power to make its own laws and breed its own peculiar doctrines on soil which has been kept barren by federal authority during the past five or six years. There is wonderful earnestness on this question, as well as that of dividing Dakota, and the men who will participate in the debate are the strongest in the House. TARIFF LEGISLATION. Points from Major McKioley's Minority Report on the Mills Bill. Louisville, Ky.f March 31. A CourierJournal's Washington special says: "McKinley, of Ohio, of the ways and mean3 committee on the Republican side, has been diligently engaged for the past three days preparing tbe report of the minority against the passace of the Mills bill. His report, now ready, pays attention to each one of tbe tariff schedules in the Mills bill, attacks vigorously the free list, vehemently denounces free wool and free tin plate. Two pages are devoted to the wool question. It predicts ruin and disaster to the farmers of tbe country interested in sheep raising. McKinley says that the first effort in the direction of free trade is aimed at the unorganized farmers of the country, who, far removed from the centers of trade, busy on their farms and plantations, unused to meeting committees of Congress and unadvised that their interests were to be dealt an unfriendly blow, are to be the first victims of the British policy through the agency of tbe American Congress. Theirs is a large interest few in tbe country are larger. It is found in every State in the Union and indeed in most counties; it is in the hands of the many, not the concentrated few. The flock-masters and their workmen number at least 2,000.000 persons; the numberof flockB will reach 1,100,000; the capital invested has been estimated by competent authority at more than $300,000,000, and the annual product of 1 333 was valued at $123,000,000. Under the duty of 1&67, the industry has grown to large proportions In I860 the sheep in the United States numbered a little over 23.000.000. . Io 18S3 tbe number increased to 50,600,000. In 18G0 the clip was 60.200,000 pounds; in 1S33 it reached 320.000,000 pounds. Tbe duty of 1867, which gave to wool-growers its greatest encouragement, and induced the farmers to increase their flocks and expend their means for the beat varieties of sheep and for their care and improvement, and which finally made tbe American wools the best in the world, adapted to all the uses of manufacturers, even the highest grades of woolen and worsted cloths, has added nothing to the cost of wool to the manufacturers or consumer; on tbe contrary, tlfat cost has been greatly cheapened. In 18G7 the price was 51 cents; in 1870 it was 46 cents; in 1875, 43 cents. There has been a steady reduction, with occasional fluctuations, since the ct of 1S67, until now it is so low as to be temporarily unprofitala. Free wool will be of no permanent benefit to the - manufacturer or c. vamer, bnt a positive loss to both, and err t loss to the flockmasters and those depending noon them for employment. The decay of sLer, husbandry ia the United States would be a national calamity; it would place our manufacturers at tho mercy of foreien producers. This is an industry which cannot be built np in a day; it has required years of care and cost to reach its pres- - ot development, and sonnd policy demands its aunoar.es ar.o rccuarafemeuu mi:' "tllevctff ' "niT-S

provided the Senate does not unreasonably increase the items as tbey now stand. In a recent conversation with a leading menaoer of Congress the President referred to the surplus in tbe Treasury, and in making a basty calculation as to the appropriation bills which would tend to decrease this amount included the river and harbor bilL The gross amount provided for in the bill is a trifle in excess of $19,000,000. and as this is about equal to the President's expectations, he is supposed to be entirely satisfied with the committee's work."

The Bar's Tribute to tho Late Chief-Justice. Washington, March 31. About fifty members of the bar of the Supreme Court assembled in the courtroom at la o'clock to-day to makea formal expression of their respeet for the late Chief -justice. Senator Edmunds was called to the chair, and Clerk McKenny, of the Supreme Court, was made secretary. Attorney-general Garland offered the following resolution, "The Chief-justice of the United States has ended his career on earth. He proved himself equal to the duties which the title of his office imports. It is fitting that the bar of the court over which he presided so satisfactorily should express their sense of the calamity that has visited the court, the bar in general and the whole country; therefore, be it Resolved First, that the bar of the Supreme Court of the United States recognize in the" late Chiefi'nstice a combination of qualities that peculiarly fitted iim for the difficult and delicate duties of president of a (rreat court; that his ability as a judge, bis strong sense of justice, and his fitm but mild administration contributed to the public feeling of security and to the confidence that has made the Supreme Court the balance-wheel of the Constitution; that they are grateful for the lepacy of his noble and unsullied character, adorned by traits that endeared him to all who came in contact with him; that he was a tyre of the highest product of our free institutions, always maintaining his official and personal dignity, yet always mindful that no one was too humble for his attention and regard; and that they will remember him as one who was an honor to his country and to the whole brotherhood of men. "Second That we tender to the family of the deceased onr heartfelt sympathy. "Third That the secretary is hereby requested to furnish the Attorney-general of the United States with a copy of these proceedings, with the request to present the same to the Supreme Court of the United States for such action thereoa as the court may deem proper. "Fourth That the secretary is hereby requested to transmit an engrossed cojv of these proceedings to the family of the deceased?' Assistant Attorney-general Manrey seconded the resolutions in a warmly eulogistic speech. Jndya Shellaharger drew a parallel between the late Chiefjustice and the most eminent jurist of Knglish history. I remember, he said, that in the Senate chamber, and in the hours which immediately preceded the vote on the confirmation of Chief-justice Waite, Senator Sumner called me to him and asked about the character of Mr. Waite. In reply I then described the nominee as I do here and now. But Mr. Sumner said "I hesitate I fear we stand at at epoch in the ' country's life in the midst of revolution. Ilotg for a chief -justice like John Marshall, who shall pilot the country through the rocks and rapids ia which; we are." I repeat hi s words as nearly as I can.! I asked Mr. Summer to point the President to a few John Marshall, standing in waiting and I would guarantee the nomination of at least one the them to the Chief j us ticesh p. Mr. Summer said he would require some time to look around. Mr. J. W. Hackett, who was secretary to Mr. Cushing during the Geneva arbitration, spoke feelingly of the . kindness manifested by the late Chief -justice toward young practictioners St the bar, and Senator Evarts, who. was Judge Waite' s classmate in college, described the latter's course as a student, when he manifested the germs of those qualities which hare since developed into the characteristics described by the other speakers: Integrity, firmness, kindness, gentleness, patient research and breadth of judgment. The resolutions were adopted, and. the meeting adjourned. Prospect of a Long Session. Washington, March 31. The first of the regular annual appropriation bills, that for the West Point Academy, reached the Senate committee on appropriations yesterday. It is not within the recollection of the most experienced Senator that this haS ever before occured at so late a period in a long session. though the records as to date have not been closely examined for more than a half dozen years. In tbe long session of the Forty-seventh Congress six of the fourteen annual appropriation bills, and iu that of the Forty-eighth three of them, had reached the Senate committee before the middle of March. In the long session of the last Congress the first bill made its appearance on the 4th, and the second on the 24th of March. The reeord is held to indicate an increasing tendency toward a prolonged session of Congress. General Notes. Washington, March 31. Senators Allison, Sherman, Teller, Hiscock, Stewart, Chandler, Morrill, Plumb, Aldrich, Jones and Hoar have been appointed as the Republican committee to confer with a Demoeratie committee to determine on the order of business in the Senate. They will report to the Republican caueus which is to be held on Monday morning. The Democratic Senators held a caueus this morning to consider a plan of action in regard to the pending bond bill. Senator Beck presided and Senator Faulkner, in the absence of Senator KenDa, acted as secretary. A quorum. did not assemble until 11:30, and there was not sufficient time before the assembling of the Senate in which to accomplish the purpose cf tbe caucus. The Stewart amendment to the bond bill seemed to find favor as a eeneral thin?, though it was thought that some amendments would be necessary to perfect it. Senator McPhersonopposed it in a vig orous speech. It was determined to hold another caucus at 10 o'clock Monday moraine. The House committee on agriculture to-aay ap pointed a sub-committee composed of Chairman. Hatch and Messrs. Davis and Laird to examine the sensational statements before the committee by William G. Bartle, of St. Louis, ; and determine what action shall be taken upon them by the committee. James H. Pudney, of Indiana, has been promoted from S l.OOO to S1.200 m the Second Auditor's of fice, Treasury Department. Alias Jfbiiiie 11. lienner. or Virginia, and JJr. Charles Pottertield, who were quietly married at the residence of Rev. Dr. Domer, on Monday, are now residing in Piqua, Ohio. . James v bit comb KiJey is to enve readings from bis own writings at Universalist Cnurch on tbe evening of Aonl IO.

THE FRENCH CKISIS. Prospect that the Trouble May Result la tlie Dissolution of the Chamber. Paris, March 31. The bourse opened weak to-day, owing to the overthrow of tbe Tirard Ministry. The Opportunist journals say tbe defeat ot tbe Ministry gives General Boulanger wnat be wants, a coalition of Irreconcilables and Csesarians having defeated the Republican majority. The Siecle says: "We are again without a government, without a majority and without a compass. Tbe dissolution of tbe Chamber of Deputies is near." The Journal des Debate says the real victor in the straggle yesterday which resulted in the defeat of the Cabinet was General Boulanger. The crisis, it says, will be a formidable one, on account of the understanding between the Bight and the Extreme Left. M. Flouqaet does not desire the premiership, and it is likely that either M. Kibot or M. Devea will be called upon to form a Ministry. The Radicals threaten to put up General Boulanger as a candidate for the presidency against President Carnot, if the latter refuses to accede to their programme. President Carnot conferred with M. Le Royer, the President of the Senate, to-day. The President will probably summon M. Flouquet to form a Ministry. A protracted crisis is expected. ' Iu the Chamber of Deputies, to-day, in the course of a discussion of the order of the day, M. Fanconberie, of tbe Right, said the country was utterly disgusted with the spectacle of eonfusion that it was obliged to witness. He declared that dissolution was imperative when the Chamber reached a stage of impotency and discredit. Nothing now was left for it but to dissolve. Tbe President here stopped tbe speaker and declared that the question of dissolution could not be decided upon orders of the day. The Chamber adjourned until Tuesday. President Carnot has summoned M. Flouquet to form a Cabinet, and the lotter has promised to undertake the task if be meets with the nec

essary support. M. Floquet is progressing in the work of forming a Cabinet. I German Apprehensions. ' Berlin, March 3L Tbe sudden chance in the position of the French political parties has reawakened apprehensions for the immediate future. General Boulanger is now felt to be no spectral shadow, but a substantial force threatening tbe peace of Europe. To-day's Paris advices gravely disturbed official circles. No reliance is placed upon any possible Ministry tbat Fiaqnet, Clemenceau or any other man may form for the maintenance of peace. What Germany looks forward to is the voice of the French nation on appeal. If dissolution of the Chamber produces a strong Boulanger party, it will be taken here as equivalent to a popular vote. War and the convenience of the French to begin will not be awaited. The entire press of the country realizes tbe dangers of the position. The National Zeitung hopes that the Chamber of Deputies will yet find a way to save the state from the war party, but despairs of the Republic unless President Carnot can obtain a strong Ministry having a programme of peace, witbout an arriere pensee. The Vossiscbe Zeitung recognizes in President Carnot a prudent statesman wbo is conscious that Boulangerism means anarchy, which will lead to an electorship, and unless tbe republicans are able to support Carnot with solid-government ideas a triumph which will involve the overthrow of the Republic and tbe extinction of the nation. No paper in Germany or Austria, however radical, bas the slightest sympathy with the Boulanger movement. The Nene Freie Press, of Vienna, joins in tbe general strain in predicting rnin for France nnleess she bas the wisdom to chase "that unscrupulous adventurer" out of the country. THE SICK EMPEROR. He Continues to Manifest m Good Deal of Capacity for Work. Copyright 18SS, by the New York Associated Press. Beklin, March 31. The Emperor slept eight hours last night, almost without a break. During his sleep be is watched constantly by either Dr. Hovell or Dr. Mackenzie, who, when there is any excess of coughing, go to the Emperor's assistance. Tha necessity for tbis precaution was seen at dawn last Thursday, when theEnrperor was seized with a severe fit of coughing, daring which a piece of cartilage was detached which, but for the instant assistance of Dr. Mackenzie, might have caused suffocation. Today he looked fresh and, according to the North German Gazette, was in more buoyant spirits, obviously being benefited by the night of complete repose which followed yesterday's drive. The Emperor's official work to-day was unusually prolonged. In the forenoon Prince Bismarck and Dr. Friedberg, Minister of Justice, submitted their report on tbe intended political amnesty, which, it is expeeted, will be issued to-morrow. Dr. Friedberg also submitted a completed project under which all important state questions will be determined in full ministerial council. Prince Bismarck is understood to have finally accepted the project, which, in its inception, he disfavored as tending to enfeeble the authority of tbe Chancellor. The conference lasted an hour and a half. The Emperor next received Prince Hohen-lohS-Ingelfilgen, who bas just returned from bis mission to King Humbert, from whom he brought an autograph letter. After luncheon the Emperor walked with the princesses under the shelter of tbe grand front of the orangery. In the afternoon be heard the report on the commission relating to the new infantry regulations. During a pause for repose the doctors examined the Emperor's larynx and assented to his taking a drive. The drive lasted an hour. The crowds increased in density, it being the Easter holidays, and the Emperor was received with enthusiasm and ringing hurrahs along the route. The weather was extremely mild. The carriage was driven slowly, and the Emperor was fully seen. He saluted by raising his hand to bis hat. He looked thoroughly well set up, the only trace of bis illness being a waxy complexion. Despite the semblance of health and his' increased power, German expert opinion that the disease wilt have an early and fatal termination ia still unaltered. Tbe end will come quickly when it does come. Any night a sudden crisis may declare itself. It will be announced to the public, and will be followed io a few. hours by information of the Emperor's death. The report that Dr. Mackenzie will take a prolonged leave is untrue. The reaction among the Berlin populace in bis favor was completed yesterday. To-day he drove in Uotsr den Lioden by himself, and was greeted with cheers and salutes. Crown Prince William goes to Ems on the 12th of ApnL The state of his health continues to cause grave disquietude. Another piece of cartilege was extracted fro-- 3Emperor Frederick's larynx to-day.

THE EMPEROR'S POLICY. The Progressists Still Hope for the Introduction or Liberal Reforms. tCopyright, 1888, by the New York Associated Press. Berlin. March 31. The Progressist hopes for a speedy reduction of liberal reforms under Emperor Frederick, though chilled by tbe tone of bis proclamations to the Reichstag and Landtag, have been revived by the prospects of the prolongation of tbe Emperor's life. The proclamations were obviously written at the inspiration of Prince Bismarck, whose counsel there was a momentary necessity for tbe Emperor to accept. The organ of Herr Richter now bids the party to resume its old attitude of expectancy. Tho programme of tbe Progressists is reliance in tbe Emperor. Knowing his preference for liberal ideas, the party must taKe his position into consideration and rer4in tlStSX. clamoring for reforms, ,but con toV' uphold -the principles ' aniebtary regime. Evidently a eordiil A xderstanding between the Emperor and Prinec israarck is being formed and tbe ChanceA ".may show his customary statesmanship by Voting his policv to tbe changes in accordanceV,D tne views of the new chief of the state. This programme has justly met with sarcastic criticism. The Conservative papers say it overlooks the permanent phveical disability of the Emperor even if his life is prolonged beyond the friendliest expectation. It overlooks, also, the present facts that the Emperor bas shown no disposition to interfere with Prince Bismarck. On the contrary, at the last council of Ministers and other high officers of state, after PrinceBismarck had stated formally and atlengtb bis home and foreign policy.the Emperor intimated bis entire acquiescence in the policy end complete confidence in bis great Minister. The semi-official press alludes to the council as to a consolidation of the existing regime, but nothing seems to convmce the Progressists. They are leaning on a broken reed. Some of their papers even expressed the hope that the Emperor would refuse to sanction the Reichstag's cinquennial law and the Socialistflaw passed during the life ft Emperor "William. The Emperor, under the Constitution, could not veto laws which were in suspense thrangh the illness or death of his predecessor. Their appearance ia the Reichsanzeiger with Emperor. Frederick's signature attached to them has settled the matter. RUSSIA'S MENACING ATTITUDE. The German Government Evidently Fears Treachery on the Part of tha Czar. .Copyright 1383, by the New York Associated Press. Berlijt, March 3L The temporary confidence of the German people in the Russian peace protests is vanishing. The bourse, which got a sudden stimulus towards buying Russian securities, on hearing that Count Herbert Bismarck had been decorated by the Czar, got a quick chill to-day over the increased stamp duty imposed by Russia on native and foreign securities. The edict is held to be a further proof that Russia is on the brinfe of a financial abyss. The incident of the decoration of Count Herbert Bismarck was overrated. It was done simply in return for tbe compliment of the German Emperor conferring the decoration of the Black Eagle upoh Count SchouvalofT, the Russian ercoassador. It is impossible to overrate or mistake the breach of faith toward investors in Russian securities by the new duty. Russians collapsed J to 1J, leaving off with increased orders to sell from all points in Germany. Apart from the financial surprise, attention has been again directed to Russia's military preparations, which occasion renewed distrust The KreuzZeitungdispstohes pronounce Russian action imminent. She has tried and failed to obtain permission from Roumania to pass through her territory to Bulgaria. Under an agreement between the King and the Austrian government, if Russia tries to force ber way, the united armies will resist the attempt. The Czar bas offered tbe Roumanian government a counter alliance, promising to add Transylvania to tbe dominions of King Charles in the event of the success of the campaign The offer was rejected. General Arzenikiff, with headquarters at Kischeneff, commands the advance, and, according to the Pesther Lloyd, bas already affected the organization of a corps to open the campaign in May. The Czar banqnetted General Von Werder to-night as envoy of Emperor Frederick, and will confer a decoration upon bitn. Neither honor is of speeial significance. Among the prominent defensive measures on the German frontier, the War Office has decided to construct two new forts at Thorn, and another bridee over the Vistnlu near Dlrschau, with a strategic railway over the bridge. The contractors are instructed to employ only Ger man workmen. Hitherto Russian Poles been employed on fort works in the East have GENERAL FOREIGN NETVS. Terms Upon Which Italy Will Malta Peace with KJoe John. Rome, March 31. Advices from MaBsowah say that yesterday evening Italian scouts penetrated the Abyssinian camp, and report tbat King John and his commanders are confined of their inability to successfully attack the Italians. Tbe Italian government bas authorized Gen. San Marzano to aceept the following terms from King John: .

Tbe mission is beaded by Chief Abnna, of Axum. The Tribuna and other papers state that the terms for peace which I tally will offer include the occupation of Bogoekeren and the preferential treatment of Italian trade ia the whole of Abyssinia. Rough Treatment of Mr. Gilhooly. DcBLtJi, March 31. Mr. Gilhooly, member of Parliament, who was sentenced yesterday to two weeks' imprisonment for assaulting a police inspector. in addition to the sentence of two months previously imposed for offenses under the crimes act, was removed from Scull to the Cork jail to-day. In the Scull jail this morning Mr. Gilbooly refused to dress when ordered to do so by the police, who were to es cort him to Cork. The police thereupon knocked him down, pulled on his trousers and took him away. A small crowd saw him depart, but made no demonstration.
