Since the opening of the discussion upon the
Fitz John Porter bill both parties in the Senate
have been maneuverlpg, the republicans TO
make party capital out OF IL, and the democrats
to prevent them from doing so. BY very quiet
proceeding yesterday the democrats gained their
desired end, and, for once. outwitted their oppo-
nents. Several days ago leading democratic
Senators came to the conclusion that a continu-
alton OF the discussion could only hurt their
party and benefit that of their opponents. They
held quiet conference-not a caucuS-and de-
termine0 to send the bill to the calendar, there
10 remain until next session. They expected
the republicans to antagonize such proceeding
as they were DESTROYS that the discussion should
proceed to the exclusion OF all other business
According TO agreement, Senator Jones, of
Florida, was permitted to make his speech on the
bill. legal argument in support of it, and then
by sharp parliamentary move the demo-
cratic object was attained. From the demo-
cratic side motion to lay aside temporarily
was made. Senator Logan then moved to post
pone indefinitely which was followed by the
democrats with motion to lay on the table
The latter motion had TO be put first and the
democrats carried it, thus putting the bill
where they can reach it next session. So COM
pletely were the republicans in the dark as to
the democratic plan that after adjournment
Senator Logan proposed TO bet hat with Sena
TOR Randolph that he could not get up the bill
again this session.

Pennsylvania is, for the present. the battle
ground between the Tilden and antl-Tilden
democratic factions. The democratic commit
tee of that state will meet in Pittsburgh on the
18th instant to call a state convention, and the
great object of each OF the opposing wings Of
the party Is to control its action. The TtIden
democrats, under the leadership OF Speaker
Randall, want late Notwithstanding in
May. Senator Wallace is managing the anti
Tilden campaign in the state, and his side
insist upon an early convention. The
chairman Of the committee is a staunch
Tilden man and will do Jealous
work in his behalf, but the general i'm
preston is that majority of the committe is
against Tilden. Many Of the counties have
already chosen delegates to the state conven-
ton, and the hardest fight will be over the ad-
mission Of the Philadelphia delegation. The
anti-Tilden forces swept the field there, but ex-
Mayor yaux organized contesting delegation.
The chairman OF the state committee makes up
the list OF delegates to the convention, and the
supposit1on is that he will put on 1t the Tilden
delegates from Philadelphia. This will put
the antiTtiden delegation in the position of
contestants, and then the fight will be
before the committee on credentials. Sena-
tor Wallace has, in all former contests of this
kind, proved too much for his opponents, and
backed by the powerful anti-Tllden sentiment
in his state, his friends claim that he Will over
throw the Gramercy statesmen completely. All
the leading democrats Of Pennsylvania and
many of them from other states Will be present
at the meeting OF the committee in Pittsburg.
Tilden's supporters believe that If he can get
the Pennsylvania delegation he will secure the
nomination, and his opponents believe that If
they can beat him in that state they will drive
him from the race. Therefore, both sides are
putting forth every effort and the fight will be
a bitter one.

The jury in the case against Petro f. an, e..
in a verdict ., a,ntS at ata D[oasn'
The indictment charged him with corruptly
soliciting members of the legislature to vote for
a bill to pay the damages caused by the Pitts
burg riots. The summary manner in which the
law has dealt with Petroff and his associates is
calculated TO depress the trade of the lobbyist
in Pennsylvania, If it does not destroy it. The
Harrisburg lobby has generally had its own
way pretty much, and its workings have not
contributed anything TO the good name OF the
state. Recently amendments to the constitu-
ton were adopted having for one of their pur-
poses the suppression OF bribery and corruption
as means OF attaining legislation. The first
application OF the law, under these amend
ments, is now being made in Harrisburg, and
Its effect will be wholesome

The fate OF one of the great railway combina-
tons lately organized is depending largely upon
decision OF the United States Supreme Court
to be rendered next Monday. 1t is a suit OF st.
Louis county against the Missouri Pacific rail-
road for zoe alleged to have been loaned the
company. The corporation then existing was
superseded by the Garrison administration,
after litigation. Jay Gould purchased the Gar
rison interest, and upon that purchase formed
the railway combination to include the NJ X. &
IT. and Texas Pacific. 1t appears that the St.
Louis suit really involves the Garrison title to
The road, and should the case be decided In favor
of the county 1t will In effect restore the prop
crty to the original corporation and break up
tiould's great combination. Such a decision
would have marked effect upon many of the
railway stocks, and would make and break, per-
laps, good many spectators.

The first actual split In the republican party
over the third-term movement has occurred in
Missouri. In other states the contest has wagea
flercely, but not with force enough to disrupt
party lines. The anti-third term republicans In
Missouri are led by ex-senator Henderson, who
is bitterly hostile to Gen. Grant, because the
latter removed him very summarily from his
position as prosecutor OF the st. Louis whisky
ring. Shields, chairman of the Missouri republic
can committee. is the law partner of Henderson,
and shares the latters resentment, because of
his removal by Grant. Ex-Postmaster Filley, a
member OF the state committee, and the most
astute republican politician In Missouri, COM
mands the Grant forces. At the meeting of the
committee last night, In st. Louis, the
third-term issue was squarely presented,
and as the chairman, Shields, refused to
Work Tor the cause, motion to depose
him and reorganize was carried Filley was
elected chairman. whereupon Shields, and seven
others who agreed with him In his opposition to
Grant, withdrew. Filley retained majority of
the committee, there being twelve Grant mem
bers including himself. Each committee claims
to be the legitimate party organ, and each has
issued call for state convention at different
times and places. The feeling between the
two factions of the party is intense, and
each will send a delegation to the Chicago
convention. AS Missouri is reliably demo-
cratic, this breach in the republican party
OF no Importance as far as electoral votes are
concerned. The state will have thirty votes in
the convention, and that is the bone of conten-
ton. The Blaine and Sherman forces have COM
bined, and are represented by the Shields COM
mittee. With two-thirds OF the old committee
to support him. and his thorough familiarity
with all the political machinery in every county
OF the state, the chances are that Filley will
win the fight and carry the thirty votes of the
state for Grant.

The Wisconsin Franaer says "there are
curious things to be seen in trade. AS
a case in point, the Indiana made wag-
ons sell readily in Wisconsin, and Wis
consin made wagons sell best in the
Indiana market. SO of threshing ma
chimes, seeders, reapers, etc. There is
something in this akin TO the DISPOSE
ton of the people to buy their dry
goods and groceries in distant markets,
when better bargains could be had at
their " market centers. After all,
there Is left the consolation that while
u own people patronize distant estab-
lishments, their neighbors buy of us.
And the railroads rejoice and encour-
age these changes of favors and dol
lars" And to this testimony we can
add that the Wisconsin wagons, Wis
consin threshers, Illinois plows, Ohio
reapers, and eastern canned goods will
sell on this coast where home made ar
ticles go begging for a market.

hunt which recently took place on and
in the Yellowstone. The Crow Indians
getting a little short of meat went in
pursuit of bison and finding a herd of

in a panic for the river followed by the

ponies in the stream. The current be-
ling strong many of each were drowned.
Thirty savages went down, and ponies

with it. The fish was t heavy for the
eagle to get off with comfortably, and
as he slowly moved over the earth with
the prey in his %talons, Young gave
chase with a club. Finding his a@ssail-

dropped the fish and flew into the top
of a tall tree, from which a little later,
he was brought down by a single shot
from Young's rifle, Mr.. Young then
getting both bird and fish. The sal
mon was still alive when picked up,
and weighed Is pounds. The eagle
measured Z feet / inch from tip to
