 PHMADELH9n, PA, Nov. I3-iIon. Samue. J Randall to-day rtfe r.ug to elections, sad. "l believe the recent Democratic and Reform success mean q declaration by tine people m favor of greatly reducing public expenses, both m general and local government. Such reductions are easily atJaIuable and can be secured without friction tO proper administration. Republican control has led to extravagance iu every dIrec- tiOn, and the people believe those now m power, are not equal to the accom- plishmeut of such a result There are many questions vital to the prosperity of the country, that must be mei, and amoug the number none IS of more i'm pOrtance than doing away with the In- ternal revenue system. As for myself, 1 am in favor of the absolute and entire repeal of all such taxation. The Repub licans made fatal mistake in not CO., operating with the Democrats at the last session of Congress, in securing the then proposed reduction of seven mil lions of dollars. Now the whole system must go."
 He then proceeded to show how tue Grow. could raise the Rev nee ssarv tp meet ifs obligations and evprryes. il- said "I do no- favor a tariffenacted upon the ground ot protection, simply for the sake of protection, because I dOub- the existence of any coustitu-
 
 ton or grant of auy sdch power It would manifestly he m the uatlre of close legislation. In my jud .meut question of free trade will not arise practically in this country during our lives. SD long gs We continue tn raise revenues by duties on Imports there fore the discussIor Of that principle Is an absolute waste 0f time. Reform in the civIl service Of government is needed and the enactment of laws to prevent enforced assessments of official salaries whether such office holders are under federal, State or municipal con trol. think I can assure the public that nothing will be done by the Demo cratic House which wlll in any degree disturb or even emharrass the present business relation and property.
 NEW YORK, Nov. I3.-The Tribune's special says that the Pension Commis- sIoner has made a discovery that there are 100000 ex-sOldiers yet living in the United Stat-s who have never applied for pensions.

Petitions are now in circulation praying Congress tu pass another arrears of pensions bill. Appli- cants whose clMms have been filed for the first time within the last two yeurs are nO' entitled, under tie existing law, to arrears. The proposition is Go have all Limits and restrictions relieved.
 NEW YoRK, Nov. l3.-Tue sun, in its weekly review ot Wal! Street a'ia-s, has the following tiis morning: James Gordon Bennett has new cable sch me of making or laying d cable io cost two million, two hundred thousand aolIaTs, ot which Bonnet, subscubcs one mIl- lion and promises another million If a second million Is necessary, tIe total capital then tO be raised to i've million dollars. The new cable will he worked in connection with the Baltimore and Ohio system, and the Hrraic advIs- es western newspapers not to n Ike any contracts with the Western Union until Bennett is ready Co serve on philan- tbrOphic principles with his new toy. Bnt 1t is hard to see how Bennett can offer anything like the facilities which the Western Union now gives tn custom III If that there is some doubt in tho minds of conservative business men whether he will persIst in his new Fm-Fau." and whether his present passion for cab ling may not evaporate as his love for polo, soup-kitcheus, yachting and arctic exploration has disappeared.
