Milwaukee, Feb. 24.-Preparations
are being made for great memorial
display in respect to the memory of the
deceased Wisconsin senator. His last
wish was To have his remains cremated
and arrangements are making to carry
out that wish.
His law partner paid warm tribute
to his qualities of head and heart in an
interview with a reporter.
The question of his successor is al
ready agitated. Prominent politicians
have gone to Madison. The general
belief here is that Angus Cameron OF
Horace Ruble will be chosen. Judge
Charles E. Dyer is not a candidate, buI
is favorably mentioned.
The Milwaukee Herald desires thu
election of Ruble. Every effort will
be made to choose a successor before
March 4th. It is the opinion of law
yers that the legislature can act imme.
diately.
News from Madison of reliable
character states that a combination OF
forces against L. w. Keyes narrows
the contest between Keyes and Senator
Cameron for successor to Carpenter. 1t
is believed here that Cameron will sue

Paris, Feb. 24.-In the senate, DUKE
De Broglie declared that the informa
tion furnished by the government on
Greek affairs was insufficient. Occult
and underhand measures have been
taken under shelter of certain high in
fluences. He wished to know who in
stigated the Thomassin mission and
the promise of rifles to Greece.
Premier Ferry replied that the mis-
sion was an ordinary, normal act, but
the irreconcilables of the right and left
had distorted its nature. De Freycinet
had predecessor who had previously
ascertained that the dispatch of French
officers to Greece. and German officials
to Turkey, was in no way calculated to
disturb the note of the powers.
Ferry reminded the house of the note
of Due DeCases, wherein it was main
tanned that there was no restrictions on
the sale of arms, provided war was not
at the time declared; the government
having heard of the sale of war mate
rial, had absolutely prohibited its ex-
portation, and consequently not sin
gle cartridge had left the country.
The order of the day, pure and SIM
pie, was then adopted.

London, Feb. 24.-At $50 Harting-

the protection bill be put at p. m.
Adopted
Harrington said it was intended on
Monday to go into committee of sup
ply for explaining army estimates.
The under foreign secretary said that
up to the time of his leaving the for
eign office he had received no demand
from the Bey of Tunis for protection;
had received a communication relative
to the Boers' interview with the British
consul, but it is not of such a nature to
presented to the house.
While Nolan was speaking the seven
O'Clock hour arrived, and the speaker
put the amendment, and it and the
others were negatived.
Forster moved third reading of the
bill.
Justin Mccarthy moved its rejection,
saying the government could not expect
to counteract alleged plots and conspir
acies in America by coercing Ireland.
Harcourt, home secretary, after re-
marking on the absence of Parnell, read
extracts from the report of speech
made by John De Voy in the United
States. He argued that men like De-
Voy had their friends in England and
Ireland, and could only be kept down by
the strong hand of law. He also referred
to the speech made by Davitt, in which
he warned the country of the wolf dog,
ready to bound in vengeance over the
Atlantic. If, concluded the home Sec
retary, there were men who would use
such language. it would be the duty of
Englishmen to stamp upon them as if
they were nest of vipers.
A. M. Sullivan argued that it was
cruelty to Irishmen at home to punish
them for what was done in America.

New York, Feb. 24.-Gen. Hancock
was interviewed to-day in regard to his
intended visit to Washington during
the Inauguration. He declined to talk
on political subjects, but said he
thought it only proper for him to ac-
cept the polite and formal invitation
given to him. He was asked to be the
guest of the chairman of the commit
tee, but he has engaged rooms at
Wormley's, in order that he may be-
free to receive callers without imposing
on his host. He has not decided whether
his attendance will be in military or
in civilian capacity. It is his inten-
tion not to attend the ball in the even
ing, but he will be present in the sem
ate chamber during the inaugural GER
emOnies.

Providence, r. l., Feb. 24.-The

having paid as high rs ! per cent
per day in addition to the per cent
per annum. This extreme rate was
paid between 2 and 3 O'Clock and in
spite of the fact that the treasury came
to the relief in the shape of an order re-
ceived by the United States assistant
treasurer here little before noon in
which he gave notice that any part of
the S25, 900, 900 of per cents, called the

Washington, the price at which they
will be received being par and accrued

This now had great influence on the
stock market which opened very weak

dications of panic. AS soon as the

panic was changed into a bear panic,
the prices having suddenly advanced
from to Z per cent. At the advance

washington, Feb. 24.-The senate
received in mournful silence the an
nouncement by Cameron of his col
leagues death. Cameron made few
appropriate remarks and offered a reso-
luton expressive of the profound sor-
row of the senate and providing that the
senate take charge of the remains and
remove them to Milwaukee IN charge Of
the sergeant-at-arms and that the senate
as an additional mark of respect, ad-
journ.
Pendleton seconded the resolution
in heartfelt speech, and the senate
adjourned.
Washington, Feb. 24.-The repub-
licans in the house demanded unlimited
debate to-day on the apportionment
bill, claiming they had not fair
amount of time.
Cox offered them his hour, but they
refused, and to his threat of the pre-
yious question, replied that they would
defeat the bill by delay.
The first vote ON the previous ques-
tion showed one short of a quorum,
when the speaker voted.
If all the republicans do not join in
the filibustering tactics, the bill is
likely to pass after protracted session.
The friends of the funding bill, now
on the speakers table, intend to move to
consider it and concur in the senate
amendments. Some members prefer a
slower way, of non-concurrence and
reference to conference committee.
1t may yet fail to pass il opinions are
divided as to precedents.
The republicans refusing to accede to
the previous question on limited debate,
after some dispute Ryan was allowed to
offer an amendment making it unlaw-
full to divide any county or parish where
any district shall consist of more than
one county or parish.
A vote was then taken on ordering
the main question, resulting, 136 to 10,
the speaker voting aye, thus making a
quorum.
Dick, Robinson, Killinger, WASH
burn and Taylor, of OHIO, were the
republicans who voted. Dick voted
aye.
Page moved recess, pending which,
the senate amendments to the legisla.
tive bill were non. concurred in.
A filibustering movement was then
began.
Baker reported back the forti6catior
bill, recommending concurrence in
some of the senate amendments and
non-concurrence in others. Agreed to.
At first the republicans filibustered
against apportionment. but at Con-
gers suggestion, voted generally, the
vote standing 144 to 6S in favor of it.
and it was taken up.
After much consultation, Conger's IS
motion to dispense with the further
call of the roll was defeated.
Williams was excused after reproach-
ing the house for refusing to pay proper
respect to the memory of Senator Car
penter.
An attempt was made and various
propositions submitted, the object Of
the republicans being to discover what
number Of votes could be had for a
larger apportionment number, and the
democrats not wishing to make any
such test vote binding ON them. All
finally agreed to roll call to establish
the sentiment of the house, but Conger
demanded that Cox first withdraw the
demand for the previous question.
The chair ruled that it was beyond
Cox's power.
Page appealed to Conger to allow an
informal ballot, but the latter was OBJ
durate.
