The receipts of the general government
from customs for July, August, September
and October of the current year amounted
TO $74,03G,589 as compared with $83,517,-
362 last year. The commission estimates
that with the receipts from bonded spirits
the internal revenue will aggregate $780,
100000. Last year, however, the receipts
were $145,000,OO0, which, even on the
commissioners estimates will reduce the
internal revenue $25,000,00O. The GUS
toms receipts last year were $214,000,000.
They are estimated this year at about
$200,000,000. On the basis of these treas
ury estimates, therefore, the aggregate re-
oeipts from customs and internal revenue,
including the large tax on spirits in bond,
will be $40,000,000 less than last year. If
the project of the whisky men to extend
the bonded period should be successful,
however, the estimate of $120, 100000 for
internal revenue would need to be greatly
reduced, and there would be a greater
falling off in the receipts.

The New York Tribune compliments the
Democratic party upon having a long list
of eminent men any of whom will, if nom
mated, be acceptable candidates for Presi-
dent. The list is as follows:
Samuel j. Tilden, Grover Cleveland, William
Dorsheimer, Abram Hewitt, w. s. Hancock.
Samuel j. Randall, Judge Pratt, of Brooklyn,
Thomas Z. Bayard, George Hoadley, II. B.
Payne, George II Pendleton, George B. McClel-
Ian, Henry c. slocum, William r. Morrison,
Stephen j Field, Joseph E, Mcdonald, Thomas
A. Hendricks, Lyman Trumbul, Allen G. Thur
man, George f. Stoneman.
1t would be gratifying indeed to return
the compliment and point out the distin-
guished Republicans who possess qualifoa-
rions commencing them as presidential
candidates. There do not seem TO be any
such. The Republican list is limited to
one name only, G. a. Arthur-a matter OF
necessity, not of choice.

Especial Telegram to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.-Mr. Cox is not
pleased by. the partition of the garments of
the speakership among his rivals. He
says that he will surprise in caucus, but he
still gives no indication as to his strength.
He, however, talks freely on the tariff
question, and is perhaps more outspoken
than advisable from strictly polite view.
He pointed to-day to this statement as an
indication of his views of the necessity of
some further revision of the
tariff. The surplus will be
at least S12.000,00O. The facts
are in spite of the stories of ali the pro.ec-
ton experts, the average protection duty
still remains forty per cent advalorem in
place of the fifteen or twenty per cent, the
reduction claimed to have been accom-
plished by the legislation Of last session.
The reduction is not over twenty per cent
as compared with 1881, 1882 and 1883. In
place Of q tariff reduction of 100000 as
prophesied and promised, the reduction
viii not exceed $15,000.000. The pres
sure of public opinion in face OF the above
facts will certainly force further
consideration of the tariff question

Representative Springer, of Illinois, ar
rived this morning and opened his head
quarters at the National hotel. He said:

many shall have, but shall know when

TAKE any other shape than that. There
are whisperings that the next National
Democratic convention may be held in
Cincinnati. Of all the wretched places
imaginable for such gathering, Cincin-
natl takes the lead. Its hotels are few and
small, the fare poor, the hall unsatisfactory
and inconveniently located, ard IN fact
there is every reason why Cincinnati
should not be selected, and no good reason
why 1t should.

TIE SpElKERNHIP

The Chicago Tribune has made a sys-
tematic canvass of all of the Democratic
members of the house, to ascertain the
probable result upon the speakership. 1t
has, very properly eliminated the compli-
mentary votes that may be cast at the
outset and assumed that the only absolute
candidates are Randall, Cox and Carlisle.
With this as basis the Tribune gives the
following result of its canvass:

There is but little doubt that the Re-
publicans would prefer to see Carlisle Sc
leoted aud it may be owing to that desire
that the Tribune figures him in, or sub
stantially so, by the above table. The
Republicans hsve no other stock in trade
than the bloody shirt shibboleth and hence,
if they could point to the election of a
southern man as speaker, it would be used
80 prove that the election Of a Democratic
president meant the surrender of all DO
Eticsl power to the south. 1t is by such
40 issue that the Republicans hope to
avoid too direct attention being paid to
their corruptions.
IL Randall should be selected, it would

BLAcKMAILING IN BosToN.-A detective
IN Boston was recently consulted by al ell
derby gentleman in a prominent financial
position, who was threatened with ruin in
consequence Of an indiscreet act of his. He
was grandfather, Il deacon but one even
ing recently, while walking homewards, he
met young woman of fascinating address
who claimed to recognize him az Il former
acquaintance. Naturally he escorted her
home and was induced to make brief
call. He did not compromise himself very
seriously while in the house, but he was in
very undignifed situation when the door
opened, and q woman announced: Hattie,
here is your husband" The old man bur-
riedly got out of the house. 4 day or two
afterward he received note from a lawyer
requesting him to call at his office. The
lawyer was visited, and claimed to know
nothlngabout the case except that his client
stated that the old man had overstepped
the bounds of propriety with his wife. and
he wanted satisfaction. BY little shrewd
detective work the seductive female was in
duced to rope in the wrong man. and at
the right stage of the game she and her con
tederates were arrested. Being thus expos
ed, they were warned out of town, itnotb being
desired to bring the deacon's troubles into
court. His joy over his dcliverance extend.
ed to tears. His scrape was not quite as
serious, however, as that of State street
merchant two weeks ago, who went home
with young woman, and the next day
was confronted with a photograph of him
self holding the damsel in his lap. The
price asked for the picture was $500. He
thought it was nigh. and did not pay it. The
blackmailer threatened to send the photo
graph to his wife, but though better of it on
being confronted by the police.
