THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL, WEDNESDAY. JUNE 29, 1881.
WEDNESDAY, JUXE Z).
All outgoing steamers for Europe leaving New York are crowded with passengers. mostly tourists. The GoTernment is taking ao. airing at Long Branch. It should go to Hot Springs, Its health is seriously affected The Star Route investigations are virtually at an end. The Grand Jury is dismissed until September, by which time all things are expected to be lovely. An exchange suggests that Albany is a good place to send missionaries to just now, We concur. Let the heathen alone for awhile, and let the batteries of the Church be turned on these sinful Republicans. They ought to be made to see the wickedness of bad fights. Fred Akchkr, who role Iroquois, has be come rich from his profession as a jockey and bids fair to be a millionaire. Two years ago his professional earnings during the twelve months were 17.000. Even a leader at the Parliamentary Bar might envy his in come. lvitai Victoria's youngest son, Leopold, who was lately created Duke of Albany, is described as a skinny little cuss, with a turned-up nose, and whose mouth and front teeth remind one of a squirrel. How much longer are the English people going to put up with such nonsense? If Depew is elected Senator by the corrupt New York Legislature he should not be allowed to take his seat in the United States Senate. The Senate is Democratic, and we do not believe it will admit a man to a eat who has boueht it. The true state of the case is that it is growing plain that the day when the present New York Legis lature can give any candidate a clean title is gone, and the sooner it adjourns the better. The people now are the only proper power in the case. Tnr scheme of buying men's votes at Albany by aüowing them to'wiu their money at cards, as a method of covering np the purchase, is an old one Arrowed from Pennsylvania. It has been played extensively and successfully by the lob-cyi-'s at Harrisburg in the years past, and has s5v-m1 times been exposed. Cleveland Leader. Fry such means Blaine and Garlield propose to defeat Conkling and bolster np the Administration. Republican bosses do not hesitate to cover their briberies by games of cards. Around the gaming tables they parcel out their ill-gotten swag very rauch after the style of the men who, after Christ was crucified, parted Ills garments and cast lota for each one's share. Herr Fabeb has invented an ingenious speaking-machine, which he has exhibited before the Physical Society of London. In describing it a writer says: "It is designed to m-re perfectly imitate, mechanically, the utterance of the human voice, by means of artincial organs of articulation made on the human model, and it is worked by keys like a musical instrument. A bellows made of wood and India rubber serves for lungs; a smill wi:id-ru:!l is placed in front of the bellows to give thrilling sounds; the larynx is ni.nle of a single membrane of hippopotami!--hide and India rubber; and a mouth wiih two lips, a tongue, and an India rubber rio-e complete the organs of the apparatus. yr:neen distinct sounds are uttered by it, and. by combining these, any word age can be prodaced also laughing asd whi.i)crinr The New York halfrt' Is, if the machine can be naturalized, may send for it. and elect it to the United States Senate in place of Conkling. tifNTRAl f i it A NT referred the other day to General Tom Young, of Ohio, as a liar, because the Ohio man cnan-'ed hi:n with being a National banker. Youtie, who lives like a 'owi-stool un der tue unwholesome shadow of conspicuous men, has written a card to the American people in which he announces that he Is in love with General Grant. He refer to himself as his admirer and his "humble friend." It is quite evlden: that Young's health would be improved If he oii-ild be permitted to lick the dust off Grant's iirty old brogans. Post-Li.spatch. When Grant returned from his free lunch tcr.r around the world, the country was full ot just such toad-eaters as General Tom Younjr, and they were by no means confined tithe Republican party. Tom Young is a little more abject than the average Grant parasite that's all.- When Grant turned himself into a vile mud machine at the bidding of Conkling. and to gratify his own mongrel instincts threw filth at General Hancock, Democrats saw they had made fot-!s of themselves, and regained their common sense. But nothing can cure such a lickspittle as Tom Young. We hope the Indiana Republicans will be satisfed with the "recognition'" they have received In the appointment of Colonel Dudley as Coin mis jioner of Pensions. Tbey have been weeping since the inauguration over the unwillingness of the Prefddent to give them what they considered their fair share of the bin oflicea. First they wanted a Cabinet office, but they could not agree among ;hemselves as to the man. Then they au led one of the first-clajts mission, but lor some reason they failed in that. too. Ben Harri son is their spokesman at the White House. We fear that he a will oe reminded before a year's service in the Senate that, in the language of John Randolph, the dome of the Capitol is the cre.it extinguisher of provincial taleuL Globe I'emocra.L The boase-1 are not satisfied with the ' recognition" Dadley'sdicker does not fill the bill. Other bosses are only made the more savage by Dudley's success. They regard the late Marshal's elevation a recognition of hi- anxiety to study law rather than his success as a boss. The "Buck" elemeut of the Republican party in Indiana is growing rap idly. Half-breedisra is unpopular with the bosses, and when their new organ gets on its Ieg5, Garfield will have cause to regret his Juke warm nesa. And so General Longstreet U to combine tne daties of United State Marshal for Georgia with Vfi ! a political readjuster. lie is expected to "oiyauue a new partv, to ba comiioscd of Republic: r and independent Democrats." The Ad-TOi'ii-,trfttion, despite the failure in the Senate tlie r-ipture i; New York, appears stiil t put -irrftt fUth in ottiee-peddling.

The foregoing is the Administration pro- . gramme, mapped put so viviulvithat no 'mistake need be raale in comprehending it to the fallest extent. Blaine and Garfield, and the rest of the Administration bosses, propose to win success and maintain power
by the distribution of swag by favoring repudiation, and by such other means as fraud can supply. Longstreet the Confederate Brigadier who fought so
desperately egainst Hancock at Gettysburg, and Mahone, who did what he could on the same side of the question, are selected to or ganize the Republican party in the South In both cases they are to be supplied with any required amount of Government patron age, and it is quite likely that overtures will be made to Jeff Davis to take a hand in the business. It will be interestine to watch proceedings and developments. Thi New York Evening Post has about ceased its diatribes against Conkling, 'hav ing the sense to see that the half-breed game of bribery is not well calculated to advance the interests of the Republican party in New York or elsewhere. It says: Enough has been shown by the investigation to arouse the disgust and indignation of the people of the Stale and of the whole country. Upon either theory of the case that of bribery or that of conspiracy the scandle li gross. We are sorry to bar the inquiry of the Committee has in no way dispelled the scandal but has rather deepened its reproach. Apart from its bearing upon the present case, the testimony concerning the activities of lobbyist at the Capital: the undisguised association of Members of the Legislature with these men; the poker playing with them in their rooms by Senators and Assemblymen; the assertions as to the use of patronage. State and Federal, to influence votes In the pending canvass this and much more which has been published from day to day must be read with humiliation by all honest men. The Republican bosses of New York repre sents Republican bosses elswhere, and honest men of all parties "read with humili ation" the knavish proceedings. Honest Republicans realize the deep disgrace that their bosses are heaping upon them and their party, and will get out of the organization. TAHLK GOSSIP.

It is understood that Mr. Vanderbllt very re luctantly consents to Mr. Depew's runnlDgfor the United States Senate.

If Secretary Windom reads the papers, and the Treasury Department la supplied with a large number at the expense of the Government, he will probably notice that recent praise of his financial skill has been succeeded by universal condemnation of his Job at white-washing small peculation la the Treasury.

Secretary Wlndom will lealwiind him me embarrassing record oi a man wno, while in public office, discovered that public money had been stolen, and instead of punishing the criminal abolished his office.

It is as notorious a fact that Tweed bought W'oodin as it is that Tweed was a radical. Nearly all the recognized corTuptlonLsts In the Albany Legislature are with the Administration and against. Conklii g. The power of money and a venal press, the enormous patronage of the Administration, represented on the spot by RolierMon . with 1,300 appointments in his pocket, the Influence of Jay Gould with his newspaper connections, and of Vanderbllt with all hin railroad, are the real secret powers that Conkling ha to fight, and great powers they are la New York politics."

Large Number Present, Many of Whom Were the Bright ShinInj Lichts of the Com inonvrealth. Hundreds of Friends and Neighbors Shed Tears of Sorrow Over His Grave. The Funeral Address of Rev. John L. Smith, of Thorn town. At7:4o Tuesday morning the train on the I., B. and W. Road left the Union Depot for Crawfordsville, bearing those of this city who went to the beautiful Capital of Montgomery Countv to pay their last re spects to the memory of one of Indiana's respected citizens, and, by adoption, a fa vorite son, the late Hon.

Dr. Adkinson, Dr. W. Ii. W ishard. W. S. Hubbard, L. II. Jameson, A. II. Dawson and J. M. Til ford. Upon the arrival of the train at Craw fordsville the party was met by General Manson, under whose charge the arrangements for the funeral had been left. Carriages were in waiting to convey the party to the late residence of the deceased, which is situated some four or five squares from the depot The residence which resembles in exterior appearance that of Kentucky' great Commoner, Henry Clay, at Ashland, with spacious grounds seeded to blue griss, with large and majestic forest and evergreen trees with their dense foliage which almost hid from gaze the plain, unostentatious, comfortable, yet aristocratic house of tbe "old man eloquent." The residence is a tpyical. iSoutliern house, two-story brick, with the traditional portico, wide halls, great square rooms, not furnished with the splendor of the Ottoman's, but with a plainness, characteristic of the btate from which Mr. Lane came, the State in which he died, and of the true American citizen. The grounds in front of the residence, facing the street, were at an early hour tilled with jeople from the city, from dinerent parts of the County, and from the surrourding Coun ties. Among those present from a distance that were noticed aside from those mentioned above were: Hon. R. W. Thompson, ex-Secretary of the Navy; Senator Yoorhees, Hon. Bavliss w . Hanna. General Charles Craft and W. R. McKeene, of Terre Haute; Hon. G. S. Orth and W. 8. Lingle. of Lafayette, and Hon. Andrew H. Hamilton, of Fort Wayne. Prominent among those of the city of Crawfordsville and of the County were General Lew Wal lace, Colonel H. B. tarnngton. Hon. J. Maurice Thompson. Hon. John L. W ilion. State Senator T. H. Ristine, Hon. R. F. B. Pierce. T. D. Brown County Clerk; F. M. Johnson, County Treasurer; J. H. Wasson, County Auditor; W. J. Krug, Sheriff; Hc.n. W. I'oimsey, Mayor of the city; 11. r. Ensminger, Ctty Marshal, and M. V. B. Smith, Chief of the Fire Department. The funeral ceremonies were held at the late residence. At 10:30 o'clock Rev. J. W. Harris invoked the Divine blessing, after which Rev. John L. Smith, of Thorn town, a life-long friend of Senator Iane, delivered the following funeral address: ADDRESS Or REV. JOHN L. SMITH, D. D. Henry Smith Lane was born of highly-respect able parents in Montgomery Couuty, Kentucky, February a, lil. tus eariy eaucanon was sucn as the Common Schools of tbe country could bestow. Iu the sixteenth year of his age be became a student of judge Silas W. Robins, and at the end of two years commeneed the study of law with colonel j. niiauuiD, ana oy writing apart of bis lime in the Clerk's office to detray his necessary expenses, and at the end of about three years had so lar mastered his cnosen proi ssion as to be admitted to the Bar. In ls.it he removed to Crawfordsville, and for forty-seven years had been a citizen of this city. In 1857 he was elected to the State Legislature, and in IS 10 he represented the Seventh Indiana District in the Congress of the United States, having for his opponent iu the canvass the brilliant orator. Edward A. Hanegan. of Covington. He was again elected to Con if res in 1842. At the close of bis second term in Congress he returned to the practice of law until the outbreak of the Mexican War. when heat once organized a com pan y of volunteer, was elected Captain, and en the organization of the First Indiana Regiment was elected Major, arid afterward as Lieutenant Colonel, remaining with the regiment till he and Ms valiant comrades in arms, at trie clone of the War, were honorably mustered ut of Fcrvice. Colonel . Lane pres-ided at the Republican Convention ' in 1H.V5. which nominated JofTn C. Freemont for President of the United State, and on February ? 1.SGÜ. was nominated by acclamation lor wv ernor, and elected by about 10.U0U majority. The Legislature, however, In obedience to the wiii of the peonle. soon called him from the hiah honors of tne gubernatorial cnair 10 a seav in me Senate of the I'nited States, to which, from hi long and faithful public services, he was so Justly emitted. Throughout his six years service as Senator in Congress, embracing as they did the dark and dreadful years ol the late Rebellion. Colonel Lane was ever at his pct of duty, with a consuming zeal and sleepless vigilance, watching, guarding and promoting by his sympathy and love for the soldier In the field, or his commanding Influence In the Senate, the important and sacred trusts committed to his hands by a confiding public. At the close of his Senatorial term he returned to private lie, u enjoy, among his old friends ana neighbors, the we't recollections that ever come to the heart of the true and faithful public servant -the crlousne88 of unswerving fidelity, lie had the proud satis fact Ion that, havinir clren the be t years of his Ufa to his country. in hl nulpt ftnri nla.nt Vi run A iirmundAfl liv friends and admirers, and in the midst of analliyed. domestic com fori, he could look back on a
long public career on which rests ne taint of dis
honor. But I am not here on this solemn occasion to deal in panegyric touching his public and paUU cat life. I leave this to more competent hands to til compeers and coadjutors. If we would see tbe man, we must go into his home view him in tbe domestic circle, when uulntiuenced by the public eve. Colonel Lane was twice married. He first married Misa Pamella Jameson, at his old home in Kentucky a refined Christian lady, who aiea ecriv in me, in the year imj. in lM."he was married to Miks Jerana Elxton, of this place, and for thirty-six years their hearts, like kindred drops, have mingled into one. And yet it is not ao much to attempt to portray in acuta eitner tne public me ana labors or tbe generous and manly traits of my friend ana botner, in domestic lue; but I would hare you view him in the yet higher walka of life. With truth it has been said that a "Christian is the highest style of man." We :re always glad to know when professional men and statesmen are orthodox in their religious sentiments, and even nominally Christian in their lives, but when we can truthfully record that the man, the hus band, the lawyer, the politician, the statesmen. the leader and molderof. public opinion, hexe DewitcniDg eloquence has swayed thousands in forum ana tne neia, that such a man was not only almost, but altogether a loving, active, ex perimental and falth:ul follower of the lowly Nazarlne. With bounding gratitude we feel like offering praise to the God of our salvation.. Such a man was Henry S. Lane. Nor did he wait until he had sought and obtained all possible earthly honors, aud wasted his manhood's prime, to offer God iu old age the dregs of a misspent life; but la manhood's prime he sought ana found the pearl of great price, not in the shades of retirement, but in the midst of the activities of professional and public life he listened to tne voice of the Master, saying: "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all things else that are needed shall be added." Thus it was that Colonel Lane became a Christian and a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and has ever maintained an upright Christian character. He was an ardent friend and natron of Christian education, giving liberally of his means for its support For thirty consecutive years I sat by his side, listening to his wise counsels, In the Board of Trustees of the Indiana Asbury University. He was also an ardent lover a valuable counsellor, devoted friend and generous supporter of the Christian ministry. lie loved his own Church: he believed the doctrines there taught; was In full sympathy with her economy, government and usages; yet he was in no sense a bigot, nor was he ever offensively sectarian. In his death, which was peaceful and happy, tbe community loses one of its most rifted and valuable citizens, the Church one of J its most ardent friends and liberal supporters: but his family, and, most of all, the wife of his bosom, will the most keenly feel her irreparable loss. To us all, and to her especially, may the consolations of religion bring that solace which is the only panacea to the wounded spirit In this the time of her great trial. On Friday night be was restless; Saturday morning suffered some pain, but uttering the sweet words of love, and died ou Satur day at 1:30 o clock, p. m., and as the undying spirit took its leave of the clay tenement, his last utterance was to breathe a farewell blessing on her who was more to him than all the world be sides. The pure affection, refined sympathies, so characteristic of the man. went with him to the host. The wail of suffering humanity and the cry of distress from the sufiering poor always echoed back from his tender nature with a kind response acd a ready relief. Innocent and prattling cmidbood always charmed him. On one of the many occasions when the children had gathered on the lawn to romp and play and see Uucle L aue. he said to a friend: "When Idle I want it told to all my friends how I love little children," and in this he but imitated the Master when the little chudren scattered the palm in his pathway and sang bozannas to the Lamb. "A Prince and a great man has fallen In Israel." and we come to-day to cherish his virtues and honor his memory- Vor this we all come, without distinction. His brethren of the Bar are here: old soldiers are with us: the mystic chain, the three strong r.ts of friendship, love and truth, net as a symbol, but as a real presence, is here. But I f oi bear. Allow me a personal word, and I add bo more. Henry S. Lane was my friend. In an acquaint ance of nearly forty years there was never a jar between us. He was to nie as my own mother's son, and to-day In taking leave of the mortal remains of my old friend, trusted, tried and true, I can find no words which so fully and appro priately express the true feelings of my heart, as the words of Scotland's favorite bard in his lament for his friend: "O Henry the friend, the brother And art thou gone, and gone foreverr And hast thou crossed that nnknown riverLife's drearv bound? Like thee, where shall I find another, lh3 world around?" Following the address the choir chanted a beautitul tun erat dirge, which was followed by a prayer from Rev. Dr. Tuttle, President of Wabash College." The benediction was pronounced by ltev. Dr. Martin, of .Asbury University. At the close of the ceremonies the body was removed from the south room of the res idence where it lay to the grounds in- front of the house, beneath the tall maples, where the moistened eyes of hundreds of friends took their last look of all that remained of Hon. Henrv S. Lane. Those who knew him best spoke of the life-like appearance he possessed as they had retired. Iroiu tne casket. 1 he writer hereof Lad never seen Mr. Lane but once, and that was in 1871, while addressing the Virginia House of Delegates at KicUruond. Mr. Lane and his wife were then on a journey through the South, and while-stopping in the city of Richmond he was escorted to the State House by Governor Kemper and extended the privileges of the floor of the Senate Chamber and House of Delegates, at which time a recess was taken to give the members an opportunity of forming his acquaintance, liefore taking the recess however, Mr. Lane made a- lrief address to the assembly, which soon revived the pleasant recollections in which he was held by the Whigs of that State in years gone by. it was mt. Lane s nrst visit tli rough the South after the close of -the War. To the writer ne looked as life-like vesterday as when last seen addressing the Virginia Legislature. The following named gentlemen acted as pall bearers: Ex Governor Hendricks, Hon. IL i B. Pierce, Professor Campbell, Governor Porter, Samuel Binford, Senator Harrison, B. T. Ristine. Senator Yoorhees and Peter S. Kennedy. At ll:45o clock the march to Oak li ill Cemetery was taken. The hearse was drawn by two snow-white horses, followed by hun dreds of conveyances of different descrip tions. The casket containing the body was of heavy metalic, ornamented with silver. On the top of the casket rested two beautiful floral tributes the wreath and anchor. The followine was theorder in which the march was taken, directed by General Manson: Montgomery Guards.

Dur ing the time of marching to the cemetery the bells from the Lhurcn steeples, court House, Engine House and College towers all were tolling the funeral knell. The sidewalks and streets were lined with people as the funeral cortege passed. Upon the banks of the bluffs overlooking the road leading to ihe little city of the dead beyond the river hundreds of citizens gathered to pay reverence to the memory of their departed great one, and in silence let fall a tear as the remains were being borne to the opening tomb. When at the cemetery the Odd Fellows took charge of the body and consigned it to the vault after depositing with it the snrinsr of the evergreens in accordance with the ritual of the order, of which the de ceased was a long and valued member.

From the Public Llf A 1 . . -vnee more tne current assertions are con tradicted by facts. "The record of business actually done affords no support whatever for the asser tion that business is declining or stagnant On the contrary, whoever reports truthfully is compelled to state that the volume of business, both legitimate and speculative, whether measured in quantities or in values, never was as large before as at this season. For a little time speculation in stocks has been duller than before, but exchanges at this city which have other causes, have been remarkably large, Outside of New York exchanges for the three weeks ending June 18 are the largest oft record for three conscutive weeks, and exceed the hitherto unequaled returns for the three weeks of Xiay by nearly $30,000,000. Last week exchanges at cities outside of New York amounted to $214,ftH3,3S, which is larger by nearly $12,000,000 than the largest amount ever previ ously recorded for the third week of the monih, and closely approaches the larpest ever known for the second week.

At Philadelphia the increase in the aggregate outside of New York is extraordinary large, amounting to 42.5 per cent. and only a very small part of this advance can he attributed to the advance in prices. The fact is undeniable that the volume of business represented by the payments annually made throuch the banks is larger than before. Indeed, while some speculators are going up and down, croak ing continually, some of the largest mer chants frankly admit they have never seen larger business. In a few branches there is difficulty. The reduction of pig Iron, for example, does not increase at present, though the makers of manufactured iron have all they can do, but it des not follow that winter is here because untimely frost has nipped one rosebud. CONKLING TALKS. And Devotes a little Time to the Corrupt Half-Breeds and Monopolies. Albany, June 22. Conkling and Piatt were both present at the Stalwart conference last night, and the former addressed the meeting at some length. His remarks were mainly directed to counseling his hearers to be steadfast to the party of true Republican ideas and principles, and to beware of the corrupt group of politicians who are striving to destroy that party and its prestige, lie warned them against the men who are ap proaching them with corrupt enticements. and referred in this connection to the brib ery investigation in progress before the As sembly Committee and the Grand Jury. He said that true Republicans should disdain to employ such means to accomplish any ends as have been employed by the supporters of Depew. After dwelling upon the growing power of monopolies in this country, he spoke of the various corporate in fluences that have been arrays against the Stalwarts. He said it was al most inevitably a severe task to tiht wealth, but more especially was it difficult to do so when the millions were unscrupu lously used by corrupt ajjents. lie thought the time had come for true Republicans to put themselves on record upon this subject, and aiiirmed tbat he has no doubt of the final result of the contest between corruption on the one hand and honesty on the other. The power of railroad corporations has grown immensely in the United States, and . i - l i 1 i J I li is mostly to De ieareu w neu it uiiucrutKes i to debauch sworn Legislators. Whenever such a state of aiTiiirs is at hand there can be no doubt of the duty of every true lover of his party and his country. The system of corruption, no matter by whom countenanced, should be exposed, denounced and checked, and on no account should any one be shielded from the consequences of such great crimes. Mr. Conkling then alluded to some of the persons who have been acting as the leaders of the half-breeds, and then asked if any honorable man can for one moment think of compromising with such, notorious characters. He drew attention to the testimony already eiven before the Assembly Bribery
Committee, and commented upon certain nection or relation with the Star Route prosparts of it in detail. If there is anything ecutions at all' but is instituted U recover
that should distinguish a Republican, it the money. While Walsh was in the bankshould be his personal honestv. This should I ing business he took a Sur Route contract
he particularly the case if. as in the present instance, official positions are occupied by I those who represent the party, and yet men presuming to be Republicans have become notorious as lobbyists for the purpose ot furthering their own selfish purposes and for no other end. If this condition of anairs is to continue, where will the country go? What will the party be? What guarantee will thepeopie have that the Republican party, which saved the Union and emancipated the slaves, is honestly endeavoring to benefit the entire people? Where can tbe citizens of tbe State of New York find a party to fight their battles against corporate monopolies and against bribery and corruption in every form, whether in Albany or elsewhere? He left the question to be answered bv all who heard him. as they might consider ritrlit. So far as he is concerned, he confessed that he could see uo hope for any party or clique of men which stands out with bribery as its corner-stone, and the acts of its obby as its decorations. He hoped, he sin cerely hoped, that the charges of pro fuse use of money in the Legisla ture are untrue. He could not help, however, admitting, that from the testimony already taken, he-is thoroughly convinced that there is cause to be vigilant and care ful. He would particularly warn all lepublicans against prostituting public office for monev or patronage Mr. Conklir dwelt lorth upon topics oi corporate monopolies, and official corrup tions which tfaey induce, in the most earnest manner. H desired that his words should produce the most profound impression of which thev were capable, it was oi;iy at the repeated request of some of his friends that he had consented to attend the con ference and he was induced to speak only after much entreaty, but he considered it bis duty to warn ujs friends against the unscrupuious attemris which have been made to prevent free expression of opinion on tne tart of Senators and Assembivmen of the State of New York as to -who shall b elected to the United States Senate, He opposed anv combination with the ob iectof electine a Stalwart coupled with half-breod Senator. If two Republican Bin atora were elected, they must be pure Ftal warts and men whoso characters wer above
suspicion. They must stav here until the bribery investigation was closed. If the half-breeds still pressed the selection of unfit candidates and continued to stand without the pale of the partv organization: and. it was impossible to elect Stalwart Republicans, they should favor adjournment, thus allowing the rank and file of the Republican party in the täte to pass on the point at issue. Failing in this, the Stalwarts ought to stand by their colors until the 31st day of December if necessary. Conkling was positive and emphatic in addressing his supporters; - He spoke over an hour. Hi
was filled with historical precedents bearing upon the courtesy due Senators in making ui.iic nfiiriiiuiieuis. ii ineiuaea the history of Simmons' case in Boston. Conkling's statement did not differ from tbat ireaay given by Ueneral Grant The Virginia Muddle. "Washington, June 23. The plans Virginia coalitionists are being formulated here in Washington, the, nominee on the' Republican claims he is still Chairman of the of the mainly Lewis, ticket. Itepublican fctate Central Committee o' Vinrfnia. and he and others of the Committn wlm favor a coalition claim that he meeting of the Committee for the 4th instant will h the only legal meeting, and it is their purpose to fill the places of Wiekham and th other straigbout Republicans on the Com mittee with new men who ;favor coalition. The indications now are that there will be two separate Committees, that of the straighouts headed by Wiekham, and that of the coalitionists headed by Lewis, and Lewis will insist that his is the regular RommittM The Lewis Committee will take such action as is calculated to help coalition, expecting to thus divide the Republican party. Senator Dawes has written a letter to Virginia earnestly advocating the Republicans to join with the Readiusters. and similar letters from other prominent Republicans will be presented on the L'Sth. Wiekham and the Straightouts have a majority of the Committee as it now stands, and Lewis will not be recognized as Chairman, and Lewis will then call the Committee together at some other place than the one designated, and it is mis mat indicates a divison of Committees. Senator Mahone still controls the appointment of the small Postmasters in irginia. The citizens of Falls Church met recently and designated a Republican for Postmaster. Mahone opposed him and he could not get the appointment After awhile the citizens were informed that thev must submit to a man whom Mahone would approve, and when this was done that man was appointed. Laborers On a Spree Fntallv Wounded. WABAsn, Ind., June 23. Yesterday afternoon. immediately after the laborers employed on the new railroad yards of the Wabash, gt. Louis and Pacific Road, at Antioch, were paid off, they struck for higher wages. They had beem receiving f 1.50 per day, and demanded $1.75. The contractor offered them ILC0, but they refused to accept it They then started toward Antioch, which is about one mile from the new yards, and, upon arriving there, patronized the only saloon In the place until they became very drunk and noisy. At last seeing that things were taking a serious turn, Brubaker, -proprietor of the saloon, closed the doors, and when one of the strikers undertook to force an entrance he was hit over the head with a club wielded by Brabaker. This maddened the gang and they made a terrific onslaught upon the saloon, and threatened to hang Brubaker If they caught him. Fi nally seeing that the Infuriated men would break down the frail door, and knowing they would kill him, Brubaker opened.'flre on tbe strikers with a shot gun loaded with buckshot He tired twice and latauy wounded, one man named Gallagher, seriously: hurt another, named O'Brien, and scattered shot into the persons of several others. ne men orote ana ran, ana wnen out of harm's way pave himself up to the officers.

There is some question as to whether the honor of discovery and the Warner prize of $200 belong to Larkin or Edwards. Cincinnati.

Walsh to recover 28.000. Walsh was form erly a banker in Washington, and he ad vanced to Uradyabout $3o00u in lour diner ent loans. .Brady paid back, so the papers of the suit et ffrtli, two payments, leaving a balance due of $28,000. Hine, Walsh's counsel, declares that the suit has no conas security for a loan to a contractor. The latter failed to pay and Walsh got the con tract, which was subsequently expedited. It is said that Brady considered a part of a loan from Walsh as his share of the expe dited contract and hence his refusal to pay back. Across the Continent tn a TJalloon. New York. J une 22.
