St. Louis Exposition Building Assured.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 24.-The project to erect a
large exposition building in this city is SO
far advanced that its success is entirely as
sured. Four hundred and eighty-three
thousand dollars have already been sub
scribed, and it is probable the fund will be
increased to 100000. The proposition is to
appropriate the remainder of the fund that
may be raised to its adornment. The build
ing will be placed in Missouri Park, which
is situated in the heart of the city, between
Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets east and
west, and Olive and st. Charles streets north
and south, embracing an area of 333 by sos
granting this privilege has been received
with great favor, and there is no doubt of
its passage. Plans OF the building, which
will also include massive hall, will be
drawn next week, and work on the structure
will be commenced as speedily as possible.

General John W. Foster Receives the APP
pointment as Minister TO Spain.
specai to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON Feb 25.-John w. Foster
nomination as Minister to Madrid is more in
the nature of real surprise than anything
in the appointment line which has occurred
lately. None of the Indiana delegation knew
of it till the President had asked General Fos-
ter to accept the mission. The tender was
made last Wednesday, butt was not accepted
until Saturday, and then only with the un-
derstanding that it would not be necessary
for him to go abroad for six weeks or two
months. The new minister is very anxious
to have it known that the appointment came
to him entirely unsolicited. "When 1 re-
| turned from st. Petersburg" he said, 81 an
nounced that l had determined to retire per-
manently from the diplomatic service, and
never expected to return; but this offer came
in such shape and under such peculiarly
flattering Circumstances that l could not re-
fuse"
General Foster was in the diplomatic SER
vice of the government for nine years. Dur
ing his seven years residence in Mexico he
became very familiar with the Spanish Ian
guage, and he has extensive business engage
ments in connection with the affairs of the
Mexican government The President made
a personal request that Mr. Foster should
consent to go to Spain, if only for year, or
until some pending questions which are per-
picking can be untanged and settled
Dwight T. Reed, Secretary of the Legation
and Change D. Affairs at Madrid, will remain
undisturbed. Indiana now has three diplo-
mats abroad, General Lew Wallace Hon.
Billy Williams and General Foster.

ARKANSAS CONVICTS.
Seventeen of Them Kill Contractor and
Make Their Escape.

MEMPHIS Feb. a. - The Avalanche s
Helena, Ark, special says that deplorable
tragedy was enacted three miles below
Helena this morning. j. H. CANT had
seventy-fve penitentiary convcts employed
to work on the levee below the city. 1t
seems they made arrangements to capture
the guards and escape. One convict was
working at spading dirt near guard, whom
he knocked down. The other convicts then
rushed upon the other guards
At this time Cant came upon the scene
riding horse. He fired at the convicts, but
seeing them armed he turned to retreat.
when one of the convicts fired, the load pass
ing through his body, killing him instantly
Seventeen convIcts then made their escape
They came across a lot of negroes working
near and compelled them to change clothes
A posse of citizens have gone in pursuit, but
up to the present writing none of the con-
victs have been captured.
Cant was an energetic citizen and people
mostly depended on him to keep the levee
from Helena to Oldtown from breaking.
The Oldtown country will probably be over
flowed. The river here is rising three inches
every twenty-four hours, 1t will not reach
high water before March 8, and probably
may be higher than last year.

THE TARIFF BILL.
The Programme to Send 1t to a Conference
Committee.

committee.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Again the glad
news IL pern,itted to circulate, sub rosa, that
the Republicans are ''going" to do something
sure tomorrow. Ten or dozen to-morrows
have come and gone since this song was
started. The latest shape of the ever-shift-
ing programme of promises is that tomorrow
the House bill with the Senate amendments
will be sent to a conference committee under
the operation of the rule proposed by MIR.
Reed, from the committee on rules, Satur-
day, and that the committee will report back
bill embracing the revenue portion of the
Senate bill and a revision of the steel and
sugar duties based on the recommendation of
the ways and means committee. This is be-
lieved by many to be the only thing to do.
As such bill would reduce the revenue be-
tween 500, 900, 900 and $75 OOO 600, it might be
accepted as a happy extrication from an un-
pleasant dilemma. The Senate bill does not
stand the analysis of its best friends Very
few OF the senators have a practical knowl-
edge of the industries, and experts insist
that they must have put the thousands of
items enumerated into basket, stirred them
up with stick, and then punched and voted
for them blindfolded The last plan pro-
posed is understood to meet with some oppo-
sition from the extreme protectionists, who
may be able to defeat action this week, as
they have for the past fortnight.

Carey The Informer

Communication in New York Paper.
THE first introduction into public life OF
James Carey, town councillor of Dublin,
who on Saturday named the Phoenix Park
murderers, is both characteristic and interest
ing. Carey is a bricklayer, and was fore
man for Meade & Co., the largest builders in
Ireland. Afew years ago the corporation of
Dublin gave out contract to an English
firm for new system of sewers, which was
awarded only after a sharp competition.
The sum stipulated was SO ridiculously low
that it drew the attention of workingmen
everywhere in the United Kingdom. The
press stigmatized the job as a swindling
operation, and made fun of the English sand,
English brick, English cement and English
water which were being carried from Eng
the contractors claiming that it was better
than Irish water. There was prospect OF
trouble ahead until Carey had printed in the
Dublin papers long expose of the way the
Englishmen did their work. He said that it
would all cave in inside of year. The En-
glish contractors did not wait to prove Carey
liar, but departed at once. The corporation
continued the work, and used only Irish ma
terial in its completion. Carey was for
long time the biggest man in Ireland. HIS
name was in every ones mouth, and he was
chosen to represent Trinity Ward, the Muir
ray Hill of Dublin and the hot-bed of Tory
ism in the Town Council.

London Press Comment.

LONDON, Feb, 24-The Times says: "Par-
nell's speech will be read with the profound
repugnance it excited in the House: His
GOODNESS, not maintained with entire success,
does not imply courage so much as shame
lessness. Some consciousness OF the utter in
adequacy of his evasive quibbles to dispose
of charge built upon very broad induc-
tion may account for the labored explana-
ton, trihes and resort to ill-timed recrimna-
ton which marked his speech The House
waited patiently for frank treatment
OF the main question, which never came.
The chilling reception of his callous
triviality was only accentuated by the
mechanical cheers of the Irish members. {"

THE LAST WEEK.
The Work Laid Out for Congress to Rush
Through.

| WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The Forty
Congress will expire by constitutional limi-
tation at u o'clock NJ. next Sunday, and aside
from the struggles for precedence incident to
the closing hours of every session, the opera
ton of standing rule of the House which
allows motions to suspend rules 10 be offered
at any time during the last six days, the con-
dtion of the public business is at present so
peculiarly complicated with unusual embar-
rasments that no clearly defined programme
can be relied upon for the coming week in all
its details. The following, however will
measurably indicate the nature and prob
able order of proceeding in both houses: In
| the House, tomorrow morning, an hour
will be devoted to the transaction of miscel-
laneous business under the Pound rule
which allows each of the committees in turn
to bring a measure before the House for ten
minutes debate, and for passage by a
simple majority, provided that not more
| than four members object to its considera-
ton in the first instance. The proposed
amendment to rules (reported from the COM
mittee on rules yesterday which provides
that majority of the House may at any
time take the tax and tariff bill from the
| Speakers table for the sole purpose of non
| concurring in the Senate amendments and
sending it to the committee of conference.

privilege with a strong probability of giving
rise to an animated discussion and parla-
mentary struggle which may consume the
rest of the day. If opportunity be afforded
before to-morrow's adjournment how
ever, Mr.. Page will offer
motion that the House resolve
itself into committee of the whole for the
purpose of considering the river and harbor

Gossip Concerning Reorganization of the
Senate

Senate.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Gossip over the re-
organization of the Senate has broken out
afresh. The statement is made, and contra
dicted with equal vehemence, that Senator
Davis will resign the presidency OF the SEN
ate March 3rd, so as to enable the Republi-
cans to elect his successor without the neces-
sity of an extra session. 1t is doubtless true
that many senators would be glad to put off
the organization of the Senate throughout,
until next December, but as there will be
business enough to keep the Senate at work
in executive session for several days after the
Sd of March, IL is not likely their wishes will
be gratitied There is still considerable la
tent opposition to the election of George c.
Gorham to the secretaryship, but the hostile
Republican senators are not saying much.
He is the choice of Senators Malone and
Riddleburger, as well as the majority of the
Republicans, and as the Republicans cannot
well get along without their assistance the
chances that there will be an adjustment of
personal differences are reasonably good.
