The BILL slGNED.
Senator Conover, chairman of the senate
committee on enrolled bills, at 10 O'Clock
this morning presented the bill in regard Ia
the electoral count to President Grant,
who signed it Immediately, and Informed
Senator Conover that he would send O
special message TO the senate to-day an
nouncing his approval of the bill.
DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL CAUCUS.
The democratic senatorial caucus unani
mously selected Thurman and Bayard as
the democratic representatives of the senate
in the joint commission.
THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
The president in his message approving
the act providing for the count of the cleo
toral vote, which has just been sent to con-
gress, says he believes the bill gives the as.
surance that the result of the election will
be accepted without resistance from the
supporters of the disappointed candidate,
and that the highest officer shall not hold
his place with questioned title of right
The president, in his brief message, allude:
to the imminent peril that the country has
escaped through the adoption of the act.
THE REPUBLICAN ELECTORAL CAUCUS.
The republican senatorial caucus this
morning, for the purpose of selecting three
members of the senate branch of the tripar.
tite electoral commission, adjourned until
3 o'clock without reaching any conclusion,
the whole time of nearly two hours being
consumed in general discussion ct the
question First, whether the passage OF
the electoral bill was a republican surren.
der ; and, secondly, whether the Iepubli.
can members of the commission should
consist of advocates of the so-called sur
render or of advocates of the bill.
LATER
At the adjourned meeting of the senate
republican caucus, Messrs. Edmunds, Nor.
ton and Frelinghuysen were unanimously
chosen as the republican members of the
commission. AL five will be formally Sc
lected by the senate tomorrow.
MORTON AND THE COMMISSION.
A Washington dispatch chronicles the
rumor that Morton intends to insist upon
himself and some other senator opposed to
the compromise bill being put upon the
electoral commission. His appointment is
regarded as doubtful, however, in view OF
the fact that the Oregon case will probably
come before that commission, and Morton
is soon to make report thereon to the SEN
ate; and further, that he has already pre-
judged that case.
DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS.
The democratic caucus in the house
nominated Payne, Hunton and Abbott ia
serve on the electoral commission.

PREPARING FOR PEACE.


BELGRADE, Jan. 90
The Turkish envoy will shortly arrive to
open peace negotiations. The cabinet Is
in session daily under the presidency Of
Prince Milan. A committee CT seventeen
members of last Skuptschina demand the
immediate convocation of the chamber TO
decide finally for peace or war. The
prince favors the meeting of the cham
Der, but is understood to be opposed to
making separate treaty of peace with the
porte, either on account of secret advice
from Russia or from fear Montenegro will
refuse the proposals of Turkey and thus
become the future leader of the Slavs. The
ministry oppose convocation Of Skuptchipa
because they fear they will be called to
strict account for their administration. It
is reported that special envoy will be dis
patched Immediately to St Petersburg.

A Candid statement,

1t is but justice to acknowledge facts
and reward merit when due let it fall upon
whom it may. Very many are prejudiced
against using a patent medicine, because
there are 80 many worthless, daily adver-
tised; but there are exceptions and Shiloh's
Consumption Cure is one of these. No
Medicine could for moment stand under
the test given this unless it had superior
merit. Never before has Cough Remedy
acquired 30 large sale in 80 short time,
and gwen such universal satisfaction. You
cannot afford to refuse to try it for Throat
or Lung trouble. Your prejudice will
certainly yield after using ii otherwise con-
denim it. Sample bottle 10 cents, regular
size so cents and $1.00. A. w. Higgins,

Sewing Machines.

New York, May 8.-The expiration
Of the Batchelder needle-plate patent
is expected to-day to work important
changes in the sewing machine trade,
besides reducing the inflated prices
which have prevailed so many years
The bachelor is the last Of the series
Of patents held by the Singer, Vince
Ter & Wilson, and Grover s. Baker
combination, has controlled the bust
ness and exacted royalties from out
eide companies for a long period. The
old Howe patent -wes held by this
combination, and efeccualIv controlled
the manufacture of all machines. In
addition to this the Combination up
to three years ago owned the old Til-
son patent for four motion, which,
with the Batchelder patent, gave them
q practical command Of the entire
business. -Outside companies paid a
royalty of from 81 to 50 on each
machine manufactured by them. all Of
which went into the pockets Of the
combination. One Of the outside
companies paid as high as $4,000 a
year in royalties, and still made i'm
mese profits, the margin in the sewing
machine business being so enormous.
The actual first cost of the $50 and
$40 sewing machines sold by the lead
ing companies is, on the confession Of
their own officers, from 81 to SIS
apiece. The manufacturers claim
that their own share Of profit is only
about 50 per cent, large portion Of
which is swallowed up in maintaining
their immense establishments, taxes,
and the constant litigation which the
protection of patents entail. In one
case recently pending in she court Of
Baltimore, one company paid out $50
900. The extent and value Of the
sewing-machine trade may be gathered
from the fact that the Singer Com
pany, which last year sold over 260,-
900 machines, has from $40, eco, 600
to $f2, 100000 to invest in It's bust
ness the Howe Company has from
S7,000,0 600 to S8,000,O00, and the
Wheeler & Wilson and other large
companies amounts in proportion.
One Of the effects consequent on the
expiration Of the patents will be the
curtailment Of the lease business,
which the officers of the company say
IS much less paying than the cash dis
count system. Up to the present time
THE Singer Company has taken the
lead in the reduction Of prices and an
nounces that the retail price Of It's
| 7 1tT casn, and their $40 styles at Sic.
The other companies have made con
siderable reductions in their respective
price lists The Wilcox & Gibbs, the
leading single thread instrument, will
be retaied at the old price, 300 and
upwards.

THE PORTAGE City Register has
the following touching the axpirations
Of the patent on the Batchelder needle
plate for sewing machine
On Tuesday last the patent on the
Batchelder needl c-plste for sewing ma
chimes expired. This is the last Of the
patents held by three Of the largest
and best known sewing machines com
panies combined. The companies
have, by royalties exacted from other
companies, controlled Jhe business. II
There is 40 probability that the patent
be renewed
The effect of the expiration Of all
the most important sewing machine
patents, recently, must be beneficial
in reducing the prices (not the value)
Of sewing machines ana while it is
probable that the principal and wealthy
companies and combinations will con
tinue to manufacture machines, with
their immense capital and facilities
the prices must come down The act
ual first cost of the $50 and $40
machines, it is now confessed, was
only from 81 to SO.
1t is now little more than thirty
years since the first sewing machine
patent was issued to Elias Howe. It
took several years to bring the prin-
cipls into practical utility. His was
the automatic feed Three years
later Batchelder invented the "contin-
uous feed, and the next year Wilson
invented the trough surface double,
motion feed" Next came, in 1851
the s'tour-motion feed. The differ
en1 patents have been combined-so as
TO increase the profits Of the patentces
and mechanism Of the machines. 1t
was high time the business was thown
open to the fullest and freest CONNIE
tition
For twenty years the sewing ma
chine has been necessary part of
household furniture, hardly less I'M
portant than the cook stove 1t has
come more and more to AXE the place
Of hand-stitching, both II the home
and the shop. The renewal Of the
Betchelder patent in 1865 was a great
wrcng. and the combination came
very. near securing still another renew
