CINCINNATI, o., April 3,-Matters con.
tinue quiet everywhere in the city. Por-
tions of the barricades on Sycamore
street, near the Jail, remain as rallyng
points in case Of any further attack. The
lower portion Of the Courthouse will
soon be protected by boards to
keep ont the crowds. The mill
tia on duty, the Seventeenth
Regiment, patrol the sidewalks all around
the Courthouse and jail and keep every

The Defaulting Treasurer Brought Back
considering Coal Rates.

BELLEvILLE, ILL, April 3.-Gcorge W.
Sicber, the defaulting treasurer and bond
jumper, was placed in Jail here last
night. He arrived from Houston, Tex,
whence he had been brought by F. Sic
fert, who had been specially deputized to
make the arrest This was done at the
instance of his bondsmen, who were
forced to pay judgment of S30,337
which was rendered June %, 1881. The
above amount includes interest on the
sum embezzled five years ago, He was
removed from Office in February, 1879,
and at the following term of court was
Indicted. He had fled, however, before
the warrant was issued, but was finally
arrested and brought back. He waived
his preliminary examination and furnished
bonds, which were fixed by Squire Chal-
Tenor at 81 900 This his suretes, John
Gross and Jacob Long, subsequently
paid. The suit on his official bond was
carried twice to the Supreme Court, the
prosecution being conducted by the then
States Attorney, q. W. Brockhaus.
Sieber is greatly altered in appearance,
and his countenance bears evidence of
the mental suffering he has endured
since he became fugitive from justice.
His bondsmen appear undecided as to
what course to pursue. They, for I'M
known reasons, had him brought here as
secretly as though they wished to keep
him for public exhibition, at so much per
ticket for admission. Much dissatisfac-
ton was expressed because he was not
jailed Immediately after his arrival here.
He will doubtless serve u term in the
Penitentiary but his trial will hardly oc-
cur at this term of court.

The Tariff Bill Gaining Strength

WANHINGToN, y. c., April 3.-There Is
not nearly 50 much talk at present among
the protection members of the House as
there was week ago about the available
defeat OF tariff legislation. They find
that the action Of the caucus has amount
ed TO something after all, and has done
much to clear the air, They are begin
nng to recognize the fact that very con-
siderable number Of the fifty-seven Dem
ocratS who in caucus voted against the
Morrison resolution will vote not only to
take up the Morrison tariff bill for con-
slderation, but will vote to pass the
tariff bill, Not a few of the
tifty-se'cn will do as Congress-
men Clardy and O'Neil will do.
The Missouri delegation will be found
solid when the time for decisive action
comes, Mr.. Clardy voted against the
adoption Of the caucus resolution because
he did not approve Of the policy of agi-
tatlng the tariff question in Congress ut
this time; but he, like Judge Buckner,
will vote for the passage of a tariff bill
SO will Mr.. O'Neill, and the outlook now
is that over half of those who voted
against the caucus resolution will do like
wise,
The cause of revenue reform is likely
to gain strength by discussion in the
House. The Democratic refOrmers pro-
pose to carry the contest 70 a conclusion
ii it takes all summer, Mr. Randall and
the appropriation bills to the contrary
notwithstanding.

regarding the stand taken in the matter
of conducting the coming Irish election
and of other matters in which he is at

the article does him great injustice and is
totally unwarrantcd by the facts-"ThC
motives which inspired the attack on

face of the article, The result aimed at,
is too plain to admit of any doubt. 1t is
