Eastern Dispatches.
NEw YORK, Oct. ia meeting of the
committee appointed by the sugar refin-
ers on Thursday was held yesterday, and
it was decided to call a general meeting
of the refners of the country, to be held
in this city next Tuesday, for the pur-
pose of taking such action as may be
thought necessary to protect their inter-
ests. A careful Investigation of the mat
ter by q competent committee. which
Secretary Bris,ow has promised to APP
point, it is claimed will show that no
reduction or drawback ought to be made:
that the reduction in the Amount retained
by the Government to cover the expenses
of collecting import duties of from ten
to fifteen per cent, which was made last
March, does not give the American refin-
ers an undue advantage over their for
eign competitors, but that it has only Cd.
Grated to stimulate American trade until
it is beginning to assume more healthy
condition.
The Kelsey tar and feather case, which
caused such commotion in this section at
the time of it's occurrence, has been dis
posed of by the Huntington, Long Is
land, jury, before whom Geo. B. Banks
and Royal Sammis were tried for riot,
assault and robbery on Charles Kelsey.
They have returned verdict of not
guilty.
CHICAGO, Oct. 16. 49, A Washington
special says the first business transacted
by the President upon his arrival was
the signing of huge mass of documents
which had accumulated during HIS visit
West; then the Mississippi troubles were
discussed; Attorney. General Pierrepont
relieved the mind of the administration by
informing its head that all advlces recent
ly received from that State represented
peace and order prevailing with the pros
pect that no further trouble was antici-
pated. Then followed discussion with
reference to the successor of Secretary
Delano; this continued up to the hour
of adjournment. Some time after two
O'Clock Attorney General Pierrepont au.
thorized the statement that no successor
had yet been determined upon nor would
there be until next week. The impress
sion is that the successor has been dc.
cided upon so far as the Cabinet is con-
cerned; that is that the place has been
rendered to somebody and he has not
yet had time to reply or ia holding it
: under Amusement. There is we'll
: grounded rumor that ex-senator Chand-
Ter is the coming man; he is here to-
f night closeted with Assistant Secretary
. Cowan. To add to the significance
of this is the fact that he arrived here
a with the President this morning 1t is
: held by those who incline to the belief
: that Chandler is the man, that he is a
I tirst-class political manager and one
who, with the prestige of a Cabinet posi-
j. ton to assist him, will prove of incalcu-
n liable benefit to the party with which he
Q is affiliated. Others hold to the conclus.
j. ion that Judge Alfonso Taft, OF Ohio,
p can have the vacant place if he desires
It it. Secretary Bristow is of the opinion
'. that he can now at an early day make
arrangement for the successful placing oil
If the 3 000. 900 four and half per cent
o bonds. He CONSTITUTES the result in Ohio
= as sure to give increased confidence to
g United States securities in Europe. Ha6
the policy OF initiation been Endorsed in
Ohio by respectable majority, he wal
). apprehensive that difficulty might hav,
ensued in negotiating the loan, even i
:, he could at the present time place it a
! all. The comments Of the foreign Press
At reported by cable, seem to bear ont bis
e. conclusion in this respect.
le The new fifty cent fractional currency
20 notes will be ready for issue on Monda,
a or Tuesday of next week. The delay il
4. their preparation was caused by the re
lection Of badly printed backs Furnished
10 by the Philadelphia contractors. Their
TX has been no issue of fifty.cent note
a. since March last, in order that the oil
a issue. which has been counterfeted con
r siderably, might be retired before tn
Or new notes are issued.
y, Senator Edmunds has declined tn
W United States Judgeship of the Srcon
1T judicial District. 1t is understood tina
ne he is quite indignant that the Presider
should have thought that he would e,
ns change full term Of six years in tn
10 Senate, to which he had been reelected
be for an office selected for him. Thos
3 claiming to know say that Grant offere
20 the place not intending it as compl
nd ment, but rather with view of gettin
him out of the Senate. Edmunds hole
an the responsible position of Chairman
