as before.

The question recurred upon Mr. McCar-
ren’s motion to limit the investigation 01

George P. Smith, and the discussion was
bitter in the extreme, Senator Fassett say
ing that he believed now that if the inves-

Recess was taken, with nothing accom
plished.

A surprise for the llIiners.

PITTSBURG, April 24.—Thc miners are
somewhat taken aback by the re ) rt that
the miners of the Monongahela ‘Iver re-
gion have refused to participate in the
general strike of the miners which is set
down for the 1st of May. Monongahela
miners have only recently returned tc
work after a disastrous strike, and it is
said are in no humor for a general upris«
in g. The river miners also assert that they
are not in any of the competitive districts
that have been ordered to strike.

New York State Alliance.

HORNELstILIac, N.Y., April 24.—The real
work of organizing the Farmers’ Alliance
was commenced in Metropolitan hall
Thursday morning. The report of the
committee on constitution and bylaws
was read by sections and discussed by all
the delegates, a great deal of time being
consumed. They are the same as that ol
the National Alliance, with unimportant
changes which do not conflict with the N a-
tional document. The ,Ocala platform was
adopted.

Parnell Reproaiched.

DUBLIN, April m.—Mr. Timothy Healy,

. who presided over the meeting of the Irish

National federation yesterday, in the
course of his remarks said, among otheI
things, that he had written Mr. Parnell’s
speeches for him and had given interviews
in his name, and now Parnell called him a
gutter sparrow. In this connection it will
be ‘remembered that Mr. Healy was pri-
vate secretary to Mr. Parnell some few
years ago.

Indians Garminate a Miunicipality.

SHEFFIELD, 1a., April 24,—The Indians
with the Kickapoo Medicine company
made things lively last night. They were
crazed with drink, and when their supply
was exhausted they took their war clubs
and knives and proceeded to do up the
town. The authorities and citizens were
utterly unable to control them and assist

was finally restored. N 0 one was serious-

TH E REPUBLICAN LEAGUE.

Clarkson Elected President—The Next
Place of Meeting Undecided.

CLEVELAND, April 24.——The convention
of the League of Republican clubs finally
settled the debate on the resolutions by
making the clause objected to read: “We
therefore recommend such changes in our
laws as will effectually prohibit the im-
migration of paupers and criminals,"
striking out the following words, which
read: “And of peoples so alien from us in
their ideas and habits of thought that they
cannot be assimilated in the body politic."

John S. Clarkson and \V. \V. Tracy,
president of the Illinois league, were nom-
inated for president, but-Mr. Tracy’s name
was subsequently withdrawn, and Mr.
Clarkson was elected to succeed President
Thurston by acclamation. The present in-
cumbent, Mr. A. B. Humphrey, of New
York, was re-elected secretary, and Phing
eas l..oun.~';l)ery, of Connecticut, was re-
elected treasurer. ‘

Although the committee reported in
favor of Indianapolis as the next place 01
meeting, the convent-ion made a report tc
suit itself by voting that the executive
committee shall name the place and the
time, butshall make the timeuotless than
three weeks after the national Republican
convention. Then the convention ad‘
journed sine die.

The Enquirer prints the following can-
vass of 311 delegates as to their choice for
the next president of the United States:
Blaine, 211; Harrison, 97. The remaining
36 were divided between Alger, Sherman,
Reed,_McKinIey, Clarkson and others.

DETERMINED CAR STRIKEBS.
Bloodshed Bitty Follow on Attonlpt to
Operate Detroit’s Street Lines.

DETROIT, April 24,—The street car serv-
ice is paralyzed this morning. The only
two cars out are on the \Voodlaud avenue
line. Tracks were torn up on three lines
and obstructions have been placed on
every line. The men whom the City com.
pauy had hired to take the strikers’ places
refused to take out cars. The police are
tired out, and serious trouble is likely to
ensue.

The stove molders, 3,000 in number,
knocked off work and clustered about the
street car barns, determined to prevent the
running of cars at any cost. The employee
of the Radiator works followed the mold-
ers, and thousands of men are ready to
back up the strikers.

The patrol wagons have spent the day
dashing about from place to place to quell
threatened disturbance, but little was done
in the way of rioting, although bloodshed
will follow should the company attempt to
start cars.

The police secretly sympathize with the
men, and are very good natured in their
treatment of the strikers. The trades
council has determined to call out laborers
in the city if necessary to support the
strike.

 

Jenny Ifind’s DIemoirs.

LONDON, April 24.—The memoirs of
Jenny Lind were published Thursday.
They were edited by Canon Nollard and
Rockstro from letters, documents and
diaries belonging to her husband. The
work comprises two interesting volumes,
which set forth the great singer’s history
up to the time of her marriage. The first
chapter explains that the public is en-
titled to know only the artistic career of
the subject of the memoirs, and not her
domestic and private life. Jenny Lind is
shown to have quite early in life enter-
tained an antipathy to a dramatic career.
In 1842, in aletter to her father, she ex-
pressed the desire that God would save her
from being obliged to sing on the stage.
During her whole life there was a gradual
increase of religious feeling, and this
doubtless caused her early retirement.

A Fund for General Banks.
BOSTON, April 24.—A movement has
been started to raise afund for General

Banks, in order to secure him against

want in his old days. He is now an old

man, with but a pension of $1,200 upon
which he and his wife are compelled to
subsist. All the Republican members of

Massachusetts in congress ,and the sena-

tors have joined in an appeal for funds.

The purpose is to raise as large a fund as

possible, and devote the income therefrom

to the support of General Banks and his
wife and to their survivors. At the death
of the latter the principal is to be returned
to the donors. Mr. Abbott Lawrence will
act as agent in the collection of the fund.
The trustees are Henry L. Pierce, Abboti
Lawrence and Royal E. Robbins.
