A LETTER from Washington, published
elsewhere, shows that the post leadership
question is attracting some attention among
members of Congress. Our correspondent
very aptly suggests the war cry of "free trade
and soldiers rights When this is made
practical neither Mr.. Wilder or any other
man will monopolize tho three most valuable
posts in the country.

WItdt Congress Thought of Military Inter
ference at Elections in 1900.

What Congress Thought of Military Inter-
ference at Elections in 1900.
In connection with the veto of the bill to
prevent military interference at elections, the
following bill, which was introduced in the
House in 1900 by John Msrshall, of Virginia,
subsequently Chief Justice, has been fshed
out of the musty tones of the House to
show that in 1900 the representatives of the
people had as much respect for the liberties
of the people as the majority which now
controls the popular branch. A bill was
passed on the 14th of March, 1900, and its
title and text is as follows:
An act to prevent the interference of any
military force in certain elections. Be it en-
acted, ETC., That it shall be unlawful for any
military force of the United States to appear
around OF embodied at the place or on the day
Of holding an election for electors of the Presi-
dent and Vice-President of the United States,
or any member of Congress, or of the Governor,
or of q member of the legislature of any State,
or in any manner to interfere with such cleo
tions.
Sec. g. And be it further enacted, If any
body of troops shall be stationed in the neigh
borhood of where such election may be held,
and notice thereof be given in writing by any
person or persons holding the same to their
commanding officer, it shall be his duty in a
special manner to superinteDd their conduct
on that day SO to prevent any violation of
this act; and for that purpose detain them in
camp unless it shall be signifed to him in
writing by the officer or officers presiding over
or conducting such election that the vicinity of
| such troops will incommonde or may overave
the voters, and that he is requested to remove
them to such convenient distance, not exceed
ing one mile, as in such notice may be prescrib-
ed, in which case it shall be the duty of the
officer to conform to the request contained in

Rogers as a Poet.

A new poem, by W. Z. Rogers, the Presi-
dents private secretary, contains stanza
that sho rs how things have changed at the
white house since Zach Chandler installed
himself there:
The spell of the past is broken,
The joys that it bore are flown,
For cannot get up at A. n.
And take my drink alone
Is it the President himself who insists upon

Raising the Price Of Coal.
philadelphia Special (AIay 23) Chicago Tri

pune. 5ia f,tgha
It is now the fixed purpose of the coal
companies of this city to raise circular prices
25 cents per ton the first of June. They have
been the same now for two months, but for
the past week nearly all cargo orders have
been refused, the companies having all that
they can fill the first week in June. If they
had been willing to take orders at present
prices they could have filled the time for ten
days more. Dealers admit that stocks are
small enough and the demand active enough
to enable them to comman d it if they stick
to it. Reading stock is q little off on ac-
count of realization from rec ent specula-
tions, and Lehigh Valley is str onger, since
it is definitely known that Judge Packard's
interest, one-third of the total capital stock,
will be managed by trustees who will do just
as he has in the past, and follow out the pol
icy that he pursued. This makes it certain
that no combination can be formed to re-
strict the production of coal.

ship sUitlt John Kelley-Hci WtI not Ac-
cept the Second Place o.. Any Ticket.
Indianapolis Special MAY 22) to Cincinnati
Enquirer.
as Your correspondent called on Governor
Hendricks o-day and asked him if he had
any answer he would like to make to the
article in the Courier-J ourasoz of yesterday.
ssNo,'' said he, s.I can only say that the
article was entirely without truth. never
made any combination of any kind with Mr..
Kelley or any one who acted with or for
him-never knew of any appointments or
combinations, and cannot understand the
animus of the attack. If there was the
slightest truth in the charges made by the
Courser-Journol, I could imagine that the
editor had heard an exaggerated story, but
as there is not, I can only say it astonishes
me.'
''It is charged" said the Enquirer repre-
sentative, "that you gave your influence to
Burch, of Tennessee, to secure his selection
as secretary of the Senate, and for it you
were to have the Tennessee delegation in the
convention of 1880, and the senior Waiter
son so understood it,
stThat is not true, and it is answered by
the fact that the Indiana Senators voted for
Mr.. Watterson. had nothing to do with
the matter, but I certainly felt very kindly
toward Mr.. Watterson. do not propose TO
be a candidate for Vice President with any
one, and have declared this publicly, and SO
far as am concerned the old ticket will not
be in the field"
The general feeling here among Democrats
is that the article is very unjust to Mr..
Hendricks. His friends claim that he has
been very frank in expressing his intentions
and feelings, and that he has a right to de-
cline a nomination if he wants to-. They
also assert that he will accept no nomina-
tion except for the Presidency, and that he
will not enter any combination OF trade to
secure this result. This is by the card and
can be printed as reliable, and with it the
fact that the solid Indiana delegation will
stand unbroken for Mr.. Hendricks in 1880
if not another State votes for him.
The Democratic State convention, which
will assemble next year, will nominate Gov.
Gray for Governor, and thus lay aside ali
conflicting elements and antagonisms, fol
he is not recognized as the representative o1
any of the great leaders. The Sentinel here
is for Sanders now, but as he is large
stockholder in that paper, that is only
proper.

Yesterday morning there was large attend

at the First Baptist church, it being the last of

Pentecost. There was little change in the meth
cd from the former services save that col

bills. The brethren contributed S147.37. Mr..
Pentecost gave short exhortation upon the
parable of the merchant who finding pearl of

Plymouth Church,


in spite of the heavy rain. was we'll filled in the
evening, the large congregation being composed
of the same persons who have daily attended
the revival services. Whatever may be the
ultimate result of these revivals, and the effect
they may have had upon the city, it is certain
that the pastors could not have better support
ed the evangelists, they have been Jealous and
earnest. holding up the hands of their Moses"
The congregations, too, have been over assid-
uous, their zeal, it is feared, be-
coming q barrier to the good that
might have been accomplished, as they
have nightly. especially on Sundays,
crowded the sanctuary to the exclusion of all
others. The service was opened in the usual
way and MIR. Stebbins prefaced his singing
with the intimation that it would be the last
time the congregation and he would sing to-
gether. MIR. Pentecost departed little from
his custom by offering quite a long prayer, in
which he told the Almighty of ali that he did
and reminded Him of the new experience His
servant had received in Minneapolis. The
prayer seemed more addressed to the people
than to Him to whom all hearts are open. The
sermon was not, ,.strictly speaking, a sermon, ex-
cept it be considered one with Pentecost for
the text. The speaker told the people what
they already knew and had heard before
that the great evangelist came stranger to
the city, and that Bill King sheet had abused
him, and its little sister the Twilight Twitter-
er" had insulted him, and that considerable
feeling among the lukewarm churches and the
| ungodly had been stirred up against him. He
said, speaking of the revival, that there were
| two ways of measuring its effect-one by count
| ing the number of converts. The press had
| said that seventy persons had been saved at an
expense of $27O, but souls were not to be
valued like cattle. He did not know
how many had been converted, neither did he
care (he said it reverently). OF course he would
have been glad to hear that 500
| or 1,0OO had been turned to God But the re.
suit did not end Immediately with the number
who showed immediate signs of contrition. He
truly said that there had been great unity Of
the brethren, the churches we're knit more
closely together, and there had been stirred up
such spirit of zeal that the benefit would be
felt in after-time. After the evangelist had
finished speaking several of the ministers
spoke warmly of. the efforts made by the doc
tor, and farewell sermon brought the great
| revival to close.
