One Cent. Nonwmaxznm. Absolutely Indawndent. TUESDAY, MARCH 31. 1891. In Vino, in Veritas.“ The speech made by Rev. Dr. Paxton the eloquent pastor of the 42d street Presbyterian church, New York, at the St. Patrick’s day dinner at Delmoni- co’s, has created wide surprise and some have been ungenerous enough to .charge that its sentiments were duerto a glass of champagne he drank. If this is the case the DAILY GAZETTE would feel very much as Mr. Lincoln did about the whiskey Gen. Grant was ac- cused of drinking, when he favored the free use of that particular brand, by all the other generals. He spoke as fol- lows : “I am a Presbyterian minister. I am here to tell you that I am a brother man and a friend, and that you and I are brothers. We march under one banner. .We have one God. I fight in a difl'erent corps, you worship at , another altar, but it is the same God we adore. I, a Presbyterian, am glad to be here to-night. I have had some- what of a quarrel with some of my brothers about catholicity, in regardto the Roman Catholic chlu'ch. In this ago of aggressive infidelity and agnostic Sc1ence man is my friend and brother. The man who believes that back of phenomena there is an Almighty God, that back of all the changes of time there is a Heavenly Father—that man’s faith is mine. If you will help me to keep the Lord’s day—the Ten Com- mandments—I will fight for and with you.” Dr. Paxton wound up by sayincr: “Erin go bragh forever. I am a Home Ruler. bless ’em. They are the most humor- ous, kindhearted, best people that I: ever knew.” There was much applause when he ; sat down. 7 4+." - Not Usurping.

Senator Manderson’s Election as Presi- dent pro tem of the Senate the Initial Step in the Movement—“Vestern Senators “’on’t' Be; Sat Upon. WASHINGTON, March 31.—The report widely circulated that~ Senator Edmunds is soon to resign his seat loosed the tongue of a Republican office holder, lately from Montana, who was- sitting in one of the rooms of the Treasury this morning. “Well,” saidhe to your correspondent, “I suppose .we shall know whether there is any truth in that story when the senator gets ready to tell us. For my part, I sha’n’t believe it till I hear it from his own lips. Edmunds is only human,and he has reached a place in the senate now which must be mighty attractive to a man who loves power. reasons given for his pulling out, though] think there’s another behind all those you read in the newspapers.” ' “And what is that?” asked your corre- spondent. “He’s seen the handwriting on the wall. Yes, sir,” the speaker went on, in response to a look of surprised inquiry on the face of his interrogator, “he realizes that We are on the threshold of a new era in legis- lation over in his end of the Capitol. Have you found out yet why Manderson, of Ne braska, was elected president pro tempore of the senate instead of Hoar or any of the eastern senators of longer experience and wider fame? You thought it was because he knew so much about parliamentary law perhaps? W'ell, most everybody thought so, but that wasn’t the reason. Manderson presides very fairly. but no bet- ter than a dozen other men on that floor. 5 No, sir, it was because he came from the The Albany Law Journal, than which 3 there is no better printed authority,i has at last offered an opinion on Gov- ernor Hill’s refusal to honor Governor Bulkeley’s papers. It calls the former’s action “unjustifiable and anarchical. ” It has looked up his law references and says they do not apply at all to the case in hand. “Governor Bulkeley,” it says, “lawfully holds over and is gov- ernor de jure—not de facto—or else Connecticut has no governor. If Gov- ernor Hill had chosen to recognize Governor Bulkeley’s requisition, no harm would have been done, and prob- ably no one, at least no reasonable per- son, even of his own party, would have objected. But he has chosen to erect himself into a canvassing board for Connecticut and to denounce Bulkeley as an usurper. Whatever he is, he is not that. If any one is to blame it is not he, but the Legislature. He has not thrust himself into the office, but is simply holding on to his former office as ordered bythe constitution.” .9. BRIEF DIENTION. Warden Charles Osborne, of the Tombs prison, died in New York of consumption. The Brazilian newspapers that have ar- rived at \Vashington show that opposition to the reciprocity treaty has died out as far as the public is concerned. The gov— ermnent is prepared to put the treaty into effect on April 1. The United States steamer Galena was floated and towed to Vineyard Haven, Conn. Owing to the approach of Russian troops to the Austrian frontier and the friendly relations between France and Russia the German war office at Berlin has been very busy. The kaiser is said to have become very unpopular, while Bismarck is held in high favor. Catherine Peel, of Allentown, an old w oman aged sixty sev en years, was ar- rested on a charge of bigamy prefer red by her son William. A hole was blown in the po1t boiler of the steamer Farrar, near Savannah. The noise of the escaping steam frightened the colored deck hands, four of whom jumped overboard and were drowned. Two of the churches in Delaware closed their doors against the pastors assigned by the Wilmington M. E. conference. The man who registered at the Kenmore hotel at Albany as S. G. Spencer, of Troy, and who was found dead in his room with a bottle which had contained morphia by his side, was identified as \Vashington Quinlan, the well known New York broker. ' At Racine.

Cochrane Denies the Charge. l.’1nLADELPHIA,March 31.—Thomas Coch- rune, ex-president Of- the Guarantee Trust and Safe Deposit-company, denies the al- leged misappropriation of $115,000 in bonds of the Shawnee and Iron Point Coal and iron company, as stated in a. dispatch from Columbus, 0. Mr. Cochrane says: “The charges .made against Mr. Welch, the presi- dent, and myself are absolutely false. Mr. \Velch has all the records and can sub- stantiate this statement, and will do so at the proper time. Th6 people who now hold the bonds will gladly surrender them if they are paid the money they loaned with interest.” Bishop Ryan Improving. \VASIIINGTON, March 31.——Bishop Ryan, of Buffalo, who is sick at Providence hos— pital, in this city, has been gradually im- proving for the last few days, but is not yet considered out of danger. His condi- tion Monday was the some as the day be— fore. northwest. The First Blow in a New Revolt.- “This was the first blow in a new revolt. The line of the next secession will be drawn, not between the north and the south, but between the east and the west. The east has a way of despising the west and not attempting to conceal the feeling. The west has come to the conclusion that the east has run things long enough, and now she proposes to re- sent th3' steady course of domineering to which she has patiently submitted. In the house, of course, the more thickly settled states are in the ascendant, and are bound to continue so till the census undergoes some wonderful changes. But in the senate all the states stand on the same level. It is there that the blow for independence must- be struck.” “Would not the west be wise to wait till she sends men to Washington who will naturally rise to the top of the heap through their superior character and abil— ities?” “The west believes she has yet men here now who are the equals of those New Eng- landers—Hoar and 'Edmunds and Aldrich and the rest. Why, would you believe it? There’s Shoup, of Idaho, one of the richest men in the state, as level headed in busi- ness and as sound in patriotism as any man in the senate. The little eastern clique are proposing to ostracise him be- cause he voted to lay aside the elections bill. He is every whit their equal in char- acter, and his record in public life and as a private citizen will show whether he is able or not. \Vatch the Next Congress. “Look at his career in the war. Look at the offices he has held and the honors con- ferred on him. He does not boast a college education, it is true; but neither does Ed- munds nor Aldrich; and the side he has seen of life is worth forty diplomas. The idea of such a man being snubbed by eastern men, whom he can double discount in all matters of practical knowledge and expe- rience of the world! They will scarcely speak to him, so offended are they. No exhibition they could make of themselves would go further than this to stir up had blood in the west.” “Who besides Mr. Shoup has suffered ill treatment?” “Oh, the whole delegation in the senate from the new states. Why, those men are of some consequence at home. They are among the biggest fellows ‘ out there. When they come to Washington it goes against the grain to find themselves treated like a set of schoolboys, snubbed and sniffed at and crowded to one side.” “Will the revolt take substantial shape soon?” “It will come to a head, I think, before the first session of the next congress has grown very old. The first bolt will be made on a bill to reduce the tariff on something or other; and then if the east ern men try any of their taunting, snub hing tactics war will be declared on the spot in a speech by one of fihe northwest— erners, who will put some pretty sharp truths into some pretty plain English. You must watch so as to be present. The talk will be worth hearing, Ipromise you.” The Big Pontoon Bridge Wrecked. ST. CHAl .LEs, Ma, March 31. ——The largest p-_ontobn bridge in the world, located at St. ;Charles, across the Missouri river, was .- ,broken from its moorings and started down the river. F Ive 'men connected with éthe bridge. were 011 it: at the time of the break—John Coleman, Fritz Weeks, Louis Robinson, James Sparks and John Enoch. Atalate hour these men had not been, heard from, This is the third wreck the bridge has experienced within the past few weeks. The wreck was caused by an im- mense amount of driftwood being lodged against the bridge. A Madman with a Mission. CHICAGO, March 31.—Charles Rollins, a switchman, walked into the Harrison street station, and drawing a revolver from his pocket presented it at" Desk Sergeant Murphy’s head and demanded a supply of ammunition, as he said he had a commis- sion to rid the levee of all objectionable characters. After a hard struggle he was ove1 powered and locked up. It is thought he' is insane, and his mental condition will be looked into by the city physician today. He Dug in at Lucky Spot. PEORIA, Ills, March 31.—Philip Slattery, a farmer living nine miles from this city, has just discovered a rich lead of silver ore. He was digging awell. and struck the 1' aim of ore about thirty feet below the surf .ue in a rock stratum. The vein is a rich one, and an assayer pronounced it a fine quality of silver ore. Arrangements are being made in this city to develop the mine. and the well and' adjoining property are carefully guarded.
