The Anarchists.

LEIPsIG, December 16.-The names of
the anarchists, besides Reinsdorf and
Bachmann, whose trial began yester-
day for attempting to cause an explo-
sion at the unwilling of the Niederwald
monument to Germany, are Knechten,
Rupsch, HOlzhauer, Sochngen, Rheln-
bach and Toellner. The trial will last a
week. Four counsel were employed for
the defense. Rupsch confessed that
Reinsdorf ordered him to fire the mine.
This consisted of large stone jar and a
glass bottle filled with dynamite, fur
nished with percussion caps. To these
fuse was attached, and the whole
placed in a drain which crosses the road,
about ten minutes walk from Nieder-
valid. He was ordered to fire the train
when Emperor Williams carriage was
fifty feet distant from the drain, by
applying a Lighted cigar to the end
OF the fuse placed at the side of the
roadway. Rupsch asserts that he was
unwilling to effect the explosion and
only applied an unlighted cigar.
Knechten upbraided Rupsch for his
failure and the latter gave as an expla-
nation OF the failure that the fuse was
wet and failed to light. Knechten then

and explode the mine when the
Emperor was returning. Rupsch re-
turned to the drain and fastened a fresh
finder to the fuse but cut the fuse two
metres from the charge. When the
Emperor returned to the proper spot
Rupsch applied the burning cigar to the
fuse and walked away. Knechten was
very angry at the second failure. When
the road was clear of people he re-
moved the dynamite to the Grand
Pavilion at Rudesheim, where a con-
cert was in progress. Knechten there
upon sneaked away, and Rupsch ex-
p!oded the dynamite ten PAGES from the
pavilion and ran away. He declares
that he only wished to see the unveiI-
ing of the monument without expense,
and he intended from the first to frus-
trate the murderous plan.

eating the alleged Irregularities in the

reDutatiOn of J. J. Barker for truth and
veracitv. Z. W Ayers, correspondent

volunteered testimony against Senator

spoken of him in favorable terms, and
he considered his reputation for truth,
yeracitv. honesty and integrity TO be
bad. and he would not believe him I'M
der oath.
Barker produced a letter written by
Ex-Governor Crawford to the Secretary
of the Interior, in which the writer said
Barker was an applicant for pension
examiner; that he was a good lawyer
and he thought he would do the work
satisfactory.
"Why did you write thatletter. if you
knew my reputation to be bad?" asked
Barker
81 said in that letter that you were
good lawyer. did not say you had a
good reputation. l wrote the letter at
your own pleading, and because OF
your family, and because thought you
were trying to reform and become an
honest man instead Of a thief.
"Do you know me to be thief"
"You know your reputation in Kan
sas. One man said you ought to be III

THE sToVE-LID DOLLARS.
Heaping Them Up in the New Vault at
Washington.

washington
WASHINGTON, Nov 26.-Large consgnments
of standard silver dollars are being received at
the Treasury Department weekly for storage in
the new silver vault. These coins are shipped
from various sub-treasuries, where storage facil-
tiles are inadequate. The new silver vault is in
the sub basement of the north wing of the
treasury, and directly underneath the cash-room,
the floor Dimensions of the two apartments being
equal. The vault was finished several months
ago, and there is now stored in it about five mill
ion silver dollars, its estimated capacity being
fifty millions. Admission to the vault is gained
through double fire and burglar proof doors,
fitted with time locks and combinations of the
latest patterns.
There are seven chambers each side of the
main corridor each partitioned from the other
by iron bars. Admittance is gained through
grated DOORS fastened by spring locks which
can be sealed. Its general appearance is that of
an accommodation prison in the basement of
some wellappointed station house. Instead of
locking up tramps, drunkards and thieves, how
ever, these cells contain row upon row of can
vass bags about the size of common salt sack,
each filled with silver dollars. Cashier Whelpley

Speculation concerning the time of President

an end, at least after this publication, for your
correspondent ascertained the following from
the best authority to-day: On Jan. Mr..
Clevelund's resignation as Governor will be ten
dered to the Legislature. After its acceptance
Lieutenant-governor Hill assumes the duties of
Governor. There will be no formal ceremony
making Mr.. Hill Governor, as it is understood
that his law firm has decided that he will not be
Governor only acting Governor filing vacan-
cy. On the day of assuming the duties of Gov
ernor Mr.. Hill will send a message to the Legis-
ature. He is engaged on the message now, and
will finish it, subject to revision this week. The
subject of convict labor will receive the greatest
attention. Mr.. Hill has selected w. E. Smith,
of Clinton county, late chairman of the Demo
cratic State executive committee for private
secretary. Mr.. Hill will make few changes in
the Governors staff. Wylie, of the Commissary

Opposition to the New Treaty.
" ashington Special.

1t is felt here to be very doubtful whether tho
reciprocity treaty, just concluded with the Span
ish government will be ratified by the Senate.
The Republican protectionists and the sugar
Democrats Of the South are expected to join
hands againstit. They say that it is poor way
of meeting the question of how to get rid of the
surplus. 1t is possible that the administration
may be able to get it through, but there will be
a contest overit and the chances seem to favor
an almost united Democratic opposition to it
1t will be very awkward for Mr.. Arthur and Mr..
Frelinghuysen to have the treaty defeated in
the Senate, as very great efforts have been made
to induce the Spanish authorities to sign it, and
Mr.. Foster was sent to Spain three years ago
entirely for that particular purpose.
