The Sly MIR. Randall,

National Republican.
it was whispered last night that the Hon.
Simon Cameron felt deep interest in Mr..
Randall elevation to the speakership
'If Randall blows his nose some wonder.
fully wise man is sure to say: That's
shrewd thing. Just like Randall Randalrs
smart They talk like fools about his
shrewdness." 1t was a Carlisle man who
was making these remarks, and he continued
them in voice filled with disgust as was
also his face.
''The night Randall got here" said the
Carlisle man, ''he went straight to his house,
instead of to the Ebbitt, and his worshipers
said: That's shrewd. That's just like Ran
dali. RandalPs smart. He knows what he's
about Monday morning, when he came
down to the hotels, they said That's
shrewd Just like Randall. He's
a sharp one They said the same thing
when he went out riding with Senator Cam
eron, and when he went out riding alone.
'RandalPs keen one.' they said when he
had the gout and then they repeated it
when he got well. The most ordinary things
which anyone would naturally do have been
interpreted as evidences OF preternatural
he keeps still and looks wise these people
take it as proof positive that he has a hun
dred pledged votes in his pocket. It's all
bosh.'
The disgusted Carlisle man was about
right, for Mr.. Randall has not been able to
wink an eyelid-or even refrain from wink
ing the said eyelid-without exciting
burst of admiration at the wonderful shrewd-
ness of the thing

Criticism of Watterson,s Address.

NASHVILLE Tenn, Nov. 22.-The Ameri-
can, tomorrow, will have an elaborate edit
orial review of Henry Watterson's speech at
the revenue reform meeting in Cooper Insti-
tute, New York, tonight, characterizing the
meeting as an effort to bulldoze the House
into defeating Rannall for the speakership
with a free-trader, and protesting against
Mr.. Watterson's extreme views on the tariff
question being taken as representative of
Southern sentiment which does not indorse
Mr.. Watterson's views Industrial develop
ment is the South's chief hope and promise
of the future. The South is for protection
of home industries only so far as expressed
in the recent Democratic platforms in Ohio,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Virginia, and
no evidence is yet given that justifies the as
sumption that the South desires the reopen
ing of the tariff question at this time.

CHATTANOOGA, Nov, 22.-Andy Taylor, the
last living of the three Taylor brothers, who
murdered two sherifs and captured rail-

pelling the engineer to carry them twenty
miles at dangerous high speed, about one
year ago, will be hanged tomorrow at 2
o'oloek, at Loudon, Tenn. To-day, while be-
ing taken from Knoxville to Loudon, he
slipped revolver out of the pocket of one of
the guards, and, though heavily manacled,
he managed to get the muzzle of the pistol
within few inches of the head OF Sheriff
Foute, of Loudon, but, owing to the fact
that Taylor thought the pistol self-cocker
he was knocked down before he could raise
the hammer of the pistol. He remarked
"If had not mistaken the pistol for a self
cocker, you [Foute] would have got to hell
several hours before me-" Taylor is but
twenty-one years old, but seems to have no

Washington Special,
The movement started by William Walter
Phelps to induce ex-Speaker X eifer to decline
to be candidate for the complimentary
nomination for Speaker, does not meet with
the favor OF the few Republican congress
men who are here. They happen, in great
part, to be Mr.. Keifer's friends One of
them says: The proposition of itself is an
insult to Keifer and if anything has to be
done about the matter, the way to go about
it was hardly to send out the letter through
the Associated Press. 1t is a deliberate at
tempt to insult aud humiliate him. The
Republicans cannot afford to do any
thing of the sort There is no
reason why the general usage should not be
followed and Mr.. Keifer be given the com
plimentary nomination. EX-Speakers have
always been thus honored Keller made
some mistakes-so did every other Speaker
and it is not calculated to cause harmony
in the party to attempt to iuaugnrate any
such movement as that which Mr.. Phelps
proposes"
This is fair sample of the talk Of keifer's
friends. None of those here believe that
Keiler will for a moment think OF withdraw
ing and if he does not the probabilityis is that
he will receive the nomination. But the
protest OF Mr.. Phelps in advance can hardly
fail to create some bitterness, rs "a very con-
siderable number of the most distinguished
Republicans in the party will agree with MIR.

The Force In the soudan.

LONDON, Nov. 22-The 1000 soldiers now
scattered among the small forts on the Nile
will be concentrated. at Khartoum, where
there are already 10000 troops There are
altogether from 16, 600 to 90, 900 troops in the
Soudan. The following officers are with
the expedition: Col. Farquhar, chief of
staff; Majors Warner, Seckendorf, Evans and
Massey; Captains Heath and Walker; Sur
geon-major Rosenberg; observation-disclosures
Colborne and Coitiogan, and Major Martin.
The latter commanded the ca valry.
Unless immediate action is taken, it
is feared Suakim will fall into
the hands of the tribes in revolt, acting in
concert with Mahdi. The latter is thought
to be near Khartoum. If that place
should be captured there would be
no good defensible position between Mahdi
and Cairo. No one believes Mahdi will re-
main content with the conquest of Soudan.
1t is feared Turkey will interfere and insist
on reconquering the lost province Neither
the English nor the French wish this The
prospect thus bristles with serious complica-
tions.
Views of Ismail Pasha on the Calamity.
LONDON, Nov. 22-Ismail Pasha, ex-khe-
dive of Egypt, said the disturbance in the
Soudan was due to the weakness of the CEN
trail government at Cairo. Throughout the
Soudan, he said, much power was exercised
by the religious chiefs and dervishes, who
could be controlled by concliatory measures
and the allowance of small stipend prac-
tice which had been unwisely discontinued.
The sufferers by the discontinuance threw in
their lot with the slave traders; hence the
present misfortune, which might have been
avoided if the railway from Suakim to Ber-
ber, on the Nile, had been completed to the
Soudan. The abandonment of that scheme
he thought false economy. He attributed
the defeat of Hicks Pasha to the constitution
of his force. Egyptian soldiers needed,
more than other soldiers flag, military
music and the eclat of war; without these
they would not and could not fight. The
army included Arab Pashas disbanded SOL
diers, who had been sent up like malefactors.
How could Hicks Pasha, he asked, fight
with such material? The ex-Khedive is not
surprised at the calamity. He would not
advise sending English troops to the Soudan
as such a course might involve greater evils.
England Will Not Withdraw from Egypt.
LONDON, Nov. 22-The Marquis of Sails
bury, speaking at the banquet of the Carl
ton Club said the defeat of Hicks Pasha
must end all thoughts of withdrawal of
the British troops from Egypt. A num-
ber of French papers express the opinion
that the disaster in the Soudan will lead to
