WAsHINGToN, June 3.-In spite of the determined
opposition of the majority of his party associates,
Mr.. S. 5. Cox with the help of the Republicans,
succeeded in getting through the House yesterday
JOINT resolution providing for an American repre-
sentation at the Exhibitions at Sydney this sum
mer. and at Melbourne next year. The resolution
approprates $4,000 to pay for theexpenses OF the
representation. From information communicated
to Congressman Levi p. Morton and Mr.. Cox, 1t
appears that both of the Exhibitions have excited
great attention among manufacturers and shippers
in the United States, and great eXertions have
been made to send cut a sufficient exhibit ot
American products to present fair idea of the ad-
vautagcs that can be offered to the Australian
colonies in the way of trade with this country:

COLUMBUS, Ohio. June 3.-The plan of the Green
back leaders for private caucus tonight mscarred
About 200 delegates to their convention were
in town by O'Clock, and every man in-
sisted on attending the gathering. No one
was willing TO accept the position OF private in
the ranks. They were all brigadcr-generals in the
party of the future in their own estimation. So the
caucus grew into a sort of preliminary convention.
which soon dritcd wholly beyond the control of the
few men who had been scheming for a coalition
with the Democrats.
After two hours of windy Oratory the gathering
got worked up into such fury of hostility to any
union with the Democrats that ii would have
scarcely been safe for any man to have advocated
such a movement seriously. A project was formed
to-day by a few prominent Nationals to have their
convention take recess until the action
of the Democrats the Goyernorship
should be known, and if the nominee
should be Ewing TO indorse him. This
plan has been abandoned because of the evident
hostility Of the great mass OF Greenback delegates.
number Of Greenbackors from outside the state
have helped TO work up the anti-cOalltlon move
ment. Among them are James buchanan, OF In
dianapOlis and Colonel CTaudali, of Washington,
editor Of q new GTeenback organ.
The result of tO-nighfs meeting will be tho noml-
nation of straight greenback ticket to-lnOIroW
ing Of the delegates. This triumph of the anti
coalition element among the Nationals dimlnlshes
very materially the chances OF starting Ewing

slant, in Barron county, KY, United
States Deputy Collector Ray and bis
assistant. John Uranium, found an IL
licit distillery. Quietly entering the
premises, they were received with the
discharge of q shot gun, which narrow
ly missed Brannum's brains. Collec-
tor Ray instantly shot with a pistol and
killed the man who fired the gun. An
other 'sm~oonshiner'' then made his APP
pearance with a gun, but before he
could Ere 1t off the collector shot him
down. A third man, who had shot
once or twice at the officers, and was
preparing to do so again, was also shot
down by the collector. The remainder
of the distillers then ~skedaddled. The
whole affair occupied only about three
minutes. Ray received a bullet hole
in one of his boot legs and another
through his holster. Brannum's clothes
were perforated with buckshot, but he
received no other injury. 1t was a des-
perate struggle
