What Manning's Friends Say About

What Manning's Friends Say About
Bayard's Friends-Schurz's Visit to
Cleveland.
Among the men who desire to see Mr..
W. G. Whitney in the Cabinet one hears
Il great deal of talk intended to prove that
the President cannot and ought not ap-
point Mr.. Manning to the Treasury. Most
of the men who oppose Mr.. Manning know
nothing about him, and some OF them
have obtained the i'm preston that he is
one of the obscure and not very reputable
politicians of the Empire State. Those
Democrats who have met him or who saw
him in the lead at Chicago do not have
this impression. There does not appear
to be any foundation for the report
that Mr.. BaYard has protested against
Mr. Manning's appointment. Comment
ing upon this newspaper report a Demo-
crat of the House said it was not happy
or judicious thing for the friends, or pre-
tended friends, of Mr.. Bayard to under
take to keep out Nr. Manning in that
way. ''These pretended friends of Mr..
Bayard," he said, ''seem to forget that il
was Mr.. Cleveland who was elected. and
that it is Mr.. Cleveland, and not Mr.. Bay
ard, who is making up the Cabinet"
Carl SchurZ, who called on Mr.. Cleve-
lduu Oh hOuudy al AlUdUy, Sdl0 10 q cor
respondent: 81 have just returned from
lecturing tour through the South, and
having had no opportunity since the cleo
tion TO talk with Mr.. Cleveland l ran
away from New York to-day for the pur-
pose Of getting a quiet chat. No, l am
not an applicant nor a candidate for a
Cabinet office or for any other office, nor
am here in behalf of the Independents.
L have no candidate that l am urging for
an office. I@met Mr.. Cleveland several
times before the election and
was desirous of expressing to him
my views upon some matters pertaining to
his administration before he went to
Washington. AS this was an opportune
time for doing so | availed myself Of it,"
Mr.. Schurz said he believed Mr.. Cleveland
would carry out the reform ideas which
are credited to him by independents gen.
orally. He admitted that In the course of
the afternoons discussion Mr.. Cleveland
had inquired about a number Of Demo-
Gratis whose names occurred to him, and
such information as Mr.. Sehurz possessed
about them he gave.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Feb. 25.-The
trouble that has been brewing in the mill
precincts of Kensington for the past six
teen weeks eliminated tonight in a riot
of a serious nature, in which several per-
sons were beaten and four arrests made.
After the weavers had IN
duced the Lowell people to leave
the city this morning, information
was received by them that four strange
female weavers and Walter Cameron.
loom tixer, had gone to work in Leedom's
mill, and at quitting time tonight fully
1000 strikers surrounded Leedom's mIn.
Anticipating trouble, a squad OF police
men had been detailed to the scene,
and when the employees filed
corted Cameron. Tae presence of the
police did not deter the angry weavers,
and with loud shouts they surrounded
Cameron and commenced to pelt him with
snOw-balls and other missiles. The police
finally succeeded in getting him TO Front
street, and he started to ran. Seeing that
he would be captured, the fleeing man
took shelter in a barber shop.
THE HOwLING MOB
threw bricks at the shop, demolishing
the windows, and several men rushed
into the shop and dragged Cameron into
the street, when they proceeded to beat
and kick him. At this juncture a large
squad of policemen, WnO had been tele-
pnOned for, arrived upon the scene, and
Immediately lent assistance to the other
officers, who up to this time had been I'M
able to quell the disturbance or make an
arrest. One man who made his escape

a stinging blow between the eyes, which
cut cash in his face. The officer stag
gered and, striking blIndly with his
blackjack, struck his assailant under the
right ear and Knocked him insensible. He
was Immediately picked up by his friends
and taken away. The police once more
took Cameron, who was not badly in
jured, under their care and escorted him
nome. The four female weavers were
taken from the mill in a carriage.
Four men were arrested ana locked up.
The Mayor will send a large posse of po-
lice into the district tomorrow aud will

THE WOMAN'S DEPARTMENT.
Congress to be Asked to Come to Its
Relief

BOSTON, Feb. pa movement has
been inaugurated in this city among
prominent ladies and others Interested in
the success of the woman's department
of the New Orleans Exposition, to secure
an appropriation bv Congress for the
purpose of liQuidating the present in
debtedness Of the wOman's department,
and putting it upon basis that will in
sure its future success.
1t is believed that Congress will be
asked to stlpulate that $40, 900 of the $780,
600 appropriation for the exposition, re-
commended by the Committee on
Appropriations, be set aside for
the woman's department for
the purpose named. 1t is stated
that since Oct. 4, when Mrs. Julia Ward
Howe accepted the Presidency of the
WOman's department, she has only been
able to draw upon the management of the
exposition for SO, 900, although when she
accepted the office she was assured that
$4,000 was set aside for her department.
When she endeavored to draw upon these
funds, however, she was informed that
the appropriation had been withdrawn.
Letters from Mrs. Howe state that there
are not sufficient funds at her disposal to
defray the essential expenses of her de-
partment, and that the ladies have them
selves been compelled to perform all the
work of their department, excepting only
that which was beyond their strength.
The woman's department at the expo
sltlOn, 1t is stated, has been maintained
thus far through the efforts of women
alone, and such OF the funds as have been
at their disposal, beyond the $1,000 re-
ceived from the management, has been
secured through their own enterprise.
1t is urged that some such action should
be taken by Congress as that indicated
above, because the wOman's department
is national in it's representation and has
been furnished and maintained by the
working women of the United States.

ACCIDENTS ON THE RAIL.
A Freight Train Jumps the Track O

"A Freight Train Jumps the Track on
the Southwestern Railroad.
EUFAULA, ALA, Feb. Pa freight

freight cars, scattering flour, oranges and
miscellaneous freight in all directions.
No one was injured. The loss is about

number Of people were MANNED for life.
PASSENGER TRAINS TELEsCOPED BY A
FREIGHT ENGINE,
KANKAKEE, ILL, Feb. 25.-This morn
ing early, three miles south of Chebause.
on the Illinois Central Railroad, two pas
senger trains were run into by a freight
train. The passenger train which left
Chicago at about s p. m. was being fol-
lowed closely by the New Orleans ex-
press, the latter consisting of a baggage
car, smoker, two coaches and four Sleep
ers. The leading passenger train stop
ped on account of a broken truck.
The New Orleans express stopped half
mile back of it, and sent
out signals to notify approaching
trains. 1t then started up and had al
most reached the train ahead, which was
still at dead stop, when the freight came
az full speed breaking into the rear sleeper.
The engine reached the middle of the
sleeper, telescOped several cars, and then
crashed inCo the rear of the forward
passenger train.
John McInnes, of IngersOll, Ont, was
Instantly killed. He was found in his
berth in the last sleeper with his neck
broken. None of the injured are likely to
die, but about dozen people were more
or less painfully hurt.
