ALsACE--LoRRAINE-BI MODERATION.
BERLIN, March 2S.-Bismarck's speech in
the reichstag, yesterday, on the motion in
favor of an autonomous government for
Alsace-Lorraine was remarkable for its mod
GRAFTON. His denial of the right of the
province to be represented in the bundsrath,
referred to it's being represented on the same
footing as other states. He was quite will
ing to see it represented in modified form.
He had been asked why, if conscious of
flaws in the administration of the province,
be had not sooner proposed remedy, but he
thought the initiative should come from the
people themselves, and now that they had
spoken out, he held himself bound in all
conscience to try and meet their wishes.
THE TARIFF.
LONDON, March 2S.-A Berlin correspon-
dent vouches for the correctness of the fol-
lowing: According to the present form of
the governments bill, raw cotton will be ex
empt from duty. The whole tariff is con-
siderable below what was expected, and by
no means justifes the recent scare.
SECRECY OF THE MAILS.
BERLIN, March 25.-In the reichstag to-
day deputy Liebklancht accused the authori-

That Rural Deputy Marshal.

The United States district attorneys door
was barren of a placard yesterday. He re-
turned from the Winona trip. The results
attending the journey were announced yes
terday in the special telegram from Winona.
The full story is now told in the custom
house about Lords trouble and arrest.
He is resident police officer
in Rochester, and has occasionally
done service as Deputy United States Mar
shall, ''hardly ever" though, with any de-
gree of continuity, as it were. Having done
this duty, however, he had impressed the
people in general with an idea of the 'civil
service rules" and they believed him an
officer. He visited store in Lewiston, saw
some empty cigar boxes without the stamps
being torn, threatened to report the
merchant, but finally compromised for So.
This was the sum of his offending. The
United States marshal here knew nothing of
the matter until the United States commits
sioner at Hinona made report to District
Attorney Billson. He, the district attorney,
then went down to Winona and attended to
the trouble This is speaking by the card.

BUSINESS DEPRESSION.

BUSINESS DEPRESS1ONs
LONDON, March 28.-In the house of lords
last night, Lord Huntley suggested that in
quiry be made into the depression of COM
merce and agriculture. Lord Beaconsfeld
acknowledged that the depression in the az
ricultural interest was unprecedented, but
the depression was anticipated when protec-
ton was abolished. It was estimated that
the public wealth had diminished ESQ.,
100000, and the area of land under
cultivation had diminished 100000
acres. English industry and commerce
however, kept we'll on the level with those of
foreign countries. They suffered only from
low prices, the cause of which was partly
the depreciation of silver. Lord Beacons-
field believed the inquiry suggested would be
without results, but possibly an inquiry as
to the change in value of precious metals
and it's effect on English industry might
hereafter be desirable.

A few minutes before II o'clock fash
ionably -attired parsonage entered the Union
ticket Office, corner of Third and jackson
streets, and inquired the price of
a sleeping berth from Winona to
Chicago. Mr.. Charles Thompson, the agent,
replied that the price of berth
between the points named, was 5000, to
the price should be only $1.5O. Mr.. Thomp-
son explained that while $1.50 was the cost
of berth from Winona to Chicago, the
price between St. Paul and the last named
city was $500, remarking, at the same time,
that if the applicant would wait until Winona
was reached, he could then save half dol
lar on the price of the ticket. Not seeming
satisfied with the explanation,
the small minded, but grand-loo
ing individual, retired, shortly
afterwards making his appearance, when he
again insisted that the price of the ticket
should be only $1.5O. Mr.. Thompson stat
ed that his instructions would not permit of
the ticket being sold cheaper, when the
stranger replied that he didn't understand
his business, which was followed with the
most vile and approbrious epithets known
to the language of English profanity and
billingsgate, concluding with the remark
that if Mr.. Thompson would step outside he
would whip him. Mr.. Thompson does not
assume to be a.muscular Christian, but he
aims to accommodate those who have busi-
ness with him, and he accordingly gave the
fellow sound fogging. 1t is to be regret

they went over the common and up Joy
street, on the way to school one afternoon,
were not such good shots that one of them
did not hurl his missile through parlor

out popped an angry woman's head.

didn't live there, anyhow. My name is So
and-so, and live number something, in such

PINAFORE.

The Benefit at the Opera House Last Night.
The Pinafore benefit given at the Opera
House last evening to Miss Gilbertie David
son and Mr.. w. ii. Buckelew drew out one
of the largest audiences of the season. To
say that the performance gave satisfaction
would be but faint praises, for it was through
out one of the most artistic and symmetri-
cal representations of the operatic satire
that has ever been placed upon any stage.
Miss Davidson was in excellent voice, and
sang and acted the part of Josephine in an
excellent manner. Her full, rich voice was
heard to splendid advantage in solo and
duet, and almost every number received a
hearty encore. Mr.Wilkes' Capt. Corcoran was
q fine personation-one of the most artistic
ever placed upon the stage. He received the
warmest applause. and in the scene in which
the dance occurs he was called out repeated
ly. Mr.. Draper's Ralph Rackstraw was all
that could be desired. He sang with feeling
and acted his role with rare discrimination.
The singing and acting of Mr.. Buckelew was
fully up to the high standard he has already
attained, and his solo, "He's an English
man." drew out one of the heartiest encores
of the evening. The Little Buttercup of
Miss Haynes was an excellent production,
while Mrs. Thompson as Hebe won the
heartiest applause. Mr.. Toles as Dick Dead
eye displayed better appreciation of the
character than at any of the previous
presentations of the opera. The chorus was
excellent-in fact could not well be excelled.
Taken altogether the performance was an
unequivocal success.
The floral tributes showered upon the
artists were the most elegant that have been
seen in this city for many years, and it ap-
peared as if all the nurseries for miles
around had been robbed of their wealth OF
flowers for the occasion. Miss Davidson
received a magnificent basket of the choic-
est flowers. most artistically arranged. be-
sides perfect armful of bouquets. Miss
Haynes received bouquet of buttercups with
beautiful ship of flowers with blue satin
banners, containing the name "Pinafore'
and the names of the donors. Mrs. Thomp-
son was also favored with basket of ele-
CANT flowers, containing a very substantial
token of appreciation from her many
friends. Besides these each lady was com
pllmented with bouquets thrown from the
boxes and from the auditorium, which testi.
fed the appreciation in which their efforts
to please were held.
