n unusually difficult surgical ope

n unusually difficult surgical Oper-
L was recently performed at a Phil
.elphia hospital, the patient being An
nony Weaver. On the right side of his
neck was tumor which produced suffo-
eating attacks of breathing endangering
his life. One of the members ofthe sur
gical staff made all incision in the medi-
an line of the throat, but after doing so
the trachea or windpipe was not found
in its ordinary position. The surgeon
continued the incision, and after much
dissection found the windpipe three in
ches to the left of the median line, it
having been so far displaced by pressure
of the tumor. The windpipe was opened
by him in that posihOn-almost directly
under the ear-and the tracheotomyt tube
was then inserted. This operation Who'll
" relieved the patients breathing. Since
then the tumor, which ocasioned it, has
been repeatedly operated upon, and is
now almost entirely removed, and the
windp1pe is gradually returning to its
natural position.
The latest novelty in New York
city is paper soap, which is mainly for
the use of travellers. The sheets of pap
er which are put up in the form of a
small book about three inches square,
are coated with soap, and are said to be

| addition to being much handler. There
are fifty soap sheets IN each book, cost

ordinary cake of soap.

to determinations against American pork

Mr.. Randall and His Friends Not to be
Embittered Against the Party
WASHINGTON, March 19.-There were
many little conferences to-day among the
Democratic members of the House look
ing to better understanding about the
Morrison tariff bill. What effect these
interchanges of views will have cannot
be developed until the conference of next
week. 1t has been made palmer to-day
That any attempt to read Mr.. Randall and
others of his mind out of the party will
lgnominiously fail. 1t is also made GER
taln mat no such attempt Will be made.
MIR. RANDALL's PROGRAMME.
At the conference next week it is pretty
well settled that the Morrison-C carlisle
Democrats will insist upon the Morrison
Dill without change. The programme
of the Randall men was formulated to-
night. 1t is that upon the threshold Of
the conference Southern member, prob
ably Mr.. Tillman, of South Carolina-will
0her resolution indOrsing the Ohio plat
form, which, in substance, is that the
tariff should be for revenue, so adjusted as
to adequately protect American in
dustrIes and American labor without
fostering monopolles. This resolution
VIII be pressed to vote The
Randall men say that it will receive at
least 90 votes, which of course is not sufi-
clent to secure its adoption. 1t will, how
ever, define the issue at the very start.
Mr.. Randall said tonight that he ex-
pected the conference to PASS resolution
adopting the Morrison bill, but that most
OF those who will vote for the Ohio plat
form resolution Will vote as they please
when the bill comes up in the House
without reference to the action ofthe con-

$5,847,653 FOR POOR 10.

Last Years appropriation $4,000
Greater-The School Fund Increased.
WASHINGTON, March 19.-The Indian
appropriation bill, as reported to the
House to-day, appropriates $5,347. .G53. a
decrease of $1,000 from the appropriation
of last year, and of SO, ,119, 156 from the es-
Inmates. The appropriation for the sup
port of schools is $1S5,000, an increase
from last year Of $135,000.
Inc amount appropriated under treaty
stlpulatlons for school buildings, and the
the support Of teachers is also increased
by 1900. An appropriation Of St5, 900 is
made for the Indians in Alaska. The
new legislation proposed by the COM
mlttee prohibits the department from in
Producing liquor into the Indian reserva-
tl0ns under any circumstances, and an
proprlates $4,000 for the detection and
prosecution OF persons attempting to do
this. The census Of the Indians is also
provided for. The principal reductions
made by the present bill, as compared
with that of last year, are in the amounts
appropriated for rations and clothing, the
committee taking the view that as the In
dians become more and more civilized
they should depend less and less on the
government for support.

80 Important Railroad Meetings-Gov.
Mcdaniel and Mayor KIRBY.

ATLANTA, March 19.-An important
meeting has been held here of the repre-
sentatives of the lines interested in carry
ing watermelons, an adjourned meeting
from the Jacksonville meeting. Mr..
Whitehead, of the Central Railroad, was
Chairman. and Mr.. Colburn, of the Gin
cinnati Southern, was Secretary. A rate
OF l cent per ton each mile from basing
through points was adopted, 24,O00 pounds
to be the minimum car load. a bill of
lading was adopted to be used for all per-
lshable articles of this kind. The roads
are preparing for large melon and truck
business, and will give it special atten-
ton.
THE RATE COMMITTEE.
Delegates from various cities met the
Rate Committee in the Atlanta Chamber
of Commerce this morning. The room was
crowded with delegates and few specta-
tors. President Crane spoke for Atlanta,
Messrs. McWilliams and Rounsaville for
Rome, Messrs. Smart, Martin and Peoples
for Chattanooga, Mr.. Glauber for Albany,
Messrs. Jackson and Muslin for Augusta.
and Mr.. COnnOr for Macon. Other cities
were represented, but did not participate
in the debate. 1t was impossible to
agree ON any course to re-
commend to the Rate Committee.
so the conference adjourned sine die with
out harmOnizing on any plan. 1t was
evident that Atlanta's proposition did not
meet the favor of the other localities. as
no rate that would suit her could be
recommended without injustice to some
neighboring city. The meeting was full
of 1nharmoniOus harmony, all good-na-
tured, but still unyielding. The rate
committee has been in session this after
noon, but took no decisive action, as tele-
grams were received from New York and
other points which intimated that efforts
were being made to. restore the old rates
and stop the cut. The committee adjourned
until tomorrow morning, when some
action will be taken.
ALAPAHA's LITTLE RIOT.
Governor Mcdaniel to-day allowed re-

The Arthur Faction WOrsted in the
Choice of State Delegates.
PHILADELPHIA March 19.-The primary
elections of the Republican party last
night, tor delegates to the State Conven-
tion, brought out a fuller vote than usual.
A glance over the field leaves the impress
sion that the element of party represented
by eX-Secretary of the Commonwealth NJ.
5. Quay, popularly supposed to be in the
interest of the national administration,
had been defeated, and that the element
of which Mr.. Leeds, Chairman of the City
Committee, is the head, and said to be
favorable to Mr.. Blaine, had been sue
cessful in majority of the Represent
atlve districts. The result of the cOnven-
tiOn's work this morning would seem to
confirm this idea. OutspOken Blaine
delegates have been chosen at many pri-
maries in the interior and the western
portion of the State.

New ORLEANS, March 19.-The weather
is clear and pleasant. The river has re-
ceded an inch and is now an inch below
the high water mark.
At Baton Rouge the river declined
three inches and at Vicksburg has risen
nine inches.
The crevasse above Baton Rouge is now
10 feet wide and is rapidly increasing,
Efforts to close the Davis crevasse CON
tInue, but the outlook is discouraging.
No new breaks of Importance are re-
ported.
NO HOPE FOR THE MORGANZA LEvEF.
A special from Baton Rouge says: s'The
Governor to-day received a dispatch from
Bayou Sara to the effect that all hope of
saving any part of the Morganza levee
has been abandoned, and that the creVasse
Will soon be mile wide with probably
an average depth of ten feet. A dispatch
TO the Governor from Thibadaux saws
that the JamisOn creYasse, three
miles above that town on the
lett bank of La Fourche. is still
running at terrible rate and i'm
mense damage to planters is the result.
An appeal is made to the State authori-
ties for material with which to close the
crevasse."
THREE BREAKS IN ST. CHARLES PARISH.
There have been three breaks in the
leyees in St. Charles parish, only one of
which has been closed. One of the others
is 20 feet wide and one 30 feet wide. Work
on these breaks is being prosecuted with
Ylgor and it is hoped that they will be
closed tomorrow. The water in the Davis
break is 30 feet deep, and all the piling and
other work done there in the effort to
close the gap has been washed out. The
probabilities are that the effort to close
the break will be abandoned. Official no.
tlce has been given of the discontinuance
of trains, until further notice, between
Cheueyville and New Orleans on the
Texas Pacific Railroad. The suspension
is caused by the overflow from the Nor
gan, Davis and Mullet breaks.

CONKLING FOR GRANT.
Blaine His Second Choice in His Eage
ness to Work Arthur's Defeat.

Blaine His Second Choice in His Eager
ness to Work Arthur's Defeat.
WASHINGTON, March 19.-Itis a matter
of political history that President Arthur
and ex-senator Conkling are at outs.
owing Primarily to the fact that the
former would not change the personnel of
the New York custom house to suit the
latter. Ever since then there has been a
growing GOODNESS between them. Mr..
COnkling would not support Mr.. Arthur
if the latter should be nominated Mr..
Beltord, of Colorado, is credited with be-
ing an authority as regards Mr.
COnklng's political views. He was asked
to give an opinion on the subject to-day.
He replied: 81 do not like to talk about
Mr.. Conkling's differences with Presi-
dent Arthur. The man that Mr..
COnkling favors as the Republi-
can nominee is Gen. Grant. He
thinks Gen. Grant is the most avail
able man, and that his nomination would
be in the best interests of the party. But
if Gen. Grant cannot get it, and Mr..
Blaine should be nominated, Mr.. COnk-
ling will enter earnestly into the cam
paign and do all that he can to secure his
election.
If Mr.. Belford correctly gives Mr..
Conkling's position there have evidently
been things heretofore not suspected 90
ing on under the surface. Messrs. Blaine
and COnkling have long been bitter enc
mics. Since Mr.. Blaine made the
memorable assault upon Mr.. Conk-
ling, when both were members
OF the House, they had politically beenlat
daggers' points. A member of Congress
from New York said to the News CORE
spOndent tonight that he thought 1t more
than likely that Mr.. Belford tells the tale
correctly about Messrs. Blaine and Conk-
ling. He said that while not as public as
his differences with Mr.. Blaine, Mr.. COnk-
ling's opposition to President Arthur has
been far more hostile and bitter. Mr..
Conkling will,h he said, support Mr.. Blaine,
if Gen. Grant cannot get the nomination,
because of his hostility to President Ar
thur. Another point which he cited was
that Mr.. Conkling's quarrel with Presi-
dent Arthur is more recent than with Mr..
Riaiup
