Brooklyn, Sept. 30.-The young Repub-
licans of Brooklyn who may be said to
have forced Mayor Lord upon the party
a year ago, and 10 have secured his cleo
ton, met last night in the largest hall
in Brooklyn, except the Academy Of
Music. The hail was crowded. Resolu-
tions were offered to the effect that the
will of the mass of the Republican
voters was suppressed by an open and
~scandalous abuse of official power; that
the party machinery, through the i'm
mense influence and patronage Of the
Federal administration was captured and
manipulated in the interest of the Adj
ministration candidate: that the methods
| practiced for securing the nomination
for Governor and Lieutenant Governor
should be condemned, and that such nom
nations impose 10 party obligations on
Republicans to support them, the noml-
nations, not being entitled to respect.
The resolutions were almost unanimously
adopted. General Tracy, Charles An
drews and A. &. Hepburn, Republican
nominees, were Endorsed.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.-Gossip is still
busy as to the prob lie successor of Sec
rotary Folger. secrSgls Chandler is the
latest rumored selection. 1t is said that
in fixing up the slate forfeiture Presiden-
tial operations President Arthur has dis
covered that a change in his original Cab
met will be necessary. He recognizes the
fact that since the Maine election James
G.. Blaine is likely to prove his most
formidable opponent, and the rumor goes
that he can use Mr.. Chandler TO circum-
vent Blaine. Folger is worth nothing to
Mr.. Arthur in the Cabinet, but Folger as
Governor of New York will be WORT q
good deal. Every effort will be used 70
elect him, and no influence will be spared
in the election, as none was spared in the
nomination.
Important Railroad Decision.
SPRINGFIELD (Ill.), Sept. 30.-An opin-
ion was rendered b. the Illinois Supreme
Court yesterday in a case involving the
question of the power Of the State Legisla-
ture to regulate the rates charged by rail
roads for freight carried to points outside
of Illinois, and whether the act prohibit
ing unjust discrimination in such rates is
not in c~ontravention of the Constitution
Of the United States. The case is one
wherein a &C per cent larger rate was
charged on a haul from Gilman to New
York than a haul from Peoria to New York,
though the distance from Peoria is greater
by So miles. 1t was held by the Court that
the charge was unjust, excessive, extor-
tionate and unlawful, and in effect the
Court upholds the authority of the rail
road and warehouse commissioner to reg
ulate freight charges from points in
Illinois to points outside OF the State.

PROVIDENCE (R. L., Sept. 3O.-James
A. Tabener, a representative of the Eng
fish house of Higgins, Lloyd & Co., has
disappeared. An examination of the
books of the Custom-house shows that he
Systematically robbed his employers in
payment Of duties, charging the firm a
larger amount than he paid, and then de-
stroyed the Custom-house receipts. Taber-
ner was sent from England our years ago
to take the place of another defaalting
clerk.
