WAsnxdroS, June 5.-Mr. Randall is
able to be out. Hesays that his physi-
clans told him that he was wreck at the
close Of the session, because Of his over ex.
ertion. =,
II have discovered" /" said Mr.. Randall,
stthat no man can do two mems work for
great while. There are physical limita-
lions from which none OF as can escape,
however strong we may think we are, and
think the President Is trying to do too
much"
Referring to recent publications as to
his views on the tariff Alr. Randall said:
''A[y views have been somewhat strain.
| ed, but think that We (the DenocratsI
shall be able to do something with the
tarIf next winter. The extreme views
taken by the irea traders OF the party can
not Of course be adopted. The party aud
the people will not sustain these notions.
The people OF this country, / am con-
Y!nsed, iayor American industry"
Il Is difficult tossee how, with such em-
phatic declaration In favor Of protection,
Sir. Randall still hopes that tAe Demo
cracy which he represents Will be able
tO come to harmonious agree
ment with The other and more numerous
division IN his parry: His views are in
as sharp contrast Is eEef gith those OF
Mr., Minis, Of Texas. Mr.. Mills, when Fe'
Gently here, also said that we (the Demo
catsj should be able to do something with
the tariff next winter, and that one Of the
first things that he shoaA do, would be g
introduce atariff bill. Bot his tariff bill
Is not likely to be the kind that Nj. Ran.

brothers Of the two Rainsbargers now in
the Marshall county jail here for the mur
der Of Enoch johnson, and were arrested
yesterday for an alleged attack on Doctor
Underwood, who Is prominent in the
Rainsbarger prosecution.
The lynehing OF the Rainsbargers q.
Eldora Is the result Of an old taud that has
been brewing in Hardin county for many
years. It originated In q family quarrel 4
great many years ago and eliminated last
year in the murder Of Johnson For this
crime the two Rainsbargers, Nathaniel and
Frank, are now in jail at MSrshalltown,
charged with murder. Tie. accusation
was made by the wife Of Nate, who is q
daughter OF johnson. Among the most
prominent men In the county who testified
at the preliminary examination was DR..
Underwood, OF ,Eldora. His life was
threatened by gang few days ago. sus.
picious movements we're discovered by
the party upon whom watch was set. Il
was discovered they were IN secret com.
munication with tho Rainsbargers. It was
finally found that a plot was being con
cocted to murder q. number Of leading
Oitisens Of the county, J These
facts developed only . day OF

Underwood and Or. Ridenour, adentist,
were shot as they were driving along In

The family and their followers are hard

OF Robbiug the Governmental Surprising
ly Simple Scheme.
PORTLAND, 0RRooS, June 5.-The Ore
gonian's Lewiston, Idaho, special says: !:
Isaac Hibbs was appointed Postmaster at
LeRiston in March, 1854. Last January
a registered mail pouch was robbed. An
official investigation developed nothing
and the affair was eventually forgotten.
On May 9 last, Hibbs left for an alleged
silver mine on the Upper Columbia. The
Postal Inspector, alarmed at his continued
absence, investigated tho affairs Of the Of
ace and found Hibbs had written a receipt
for q large number of registered mail
packages, destined for fictitious names in
different postotfices supplied from Lewis
ton.
The m0dus opraRdi was as follows:
Lewiston Is q mail distributing point for
large number OF Offices in northern Ida
ho and eastern Washington. Hibbs
would issue a money order for fictitious
name at these offices drawn in fayorof
bankin Idaho, where orders were payable.
The customafy letter OF adyice was for
waried TO the paying postmaster. He
then wrote to the banks that he would
shortlyvisit the town and enclosed a mo-
ney order and requested the banks to cash
them and place the amount to his credit
on deposit until be arripsds. Later he
wrote the bank that he could not make
the contemplated visit, and requested that
draft for the amount OF money on de-
posit be returned by registered mail to q
fictitious name attached to the money
orders and always ut some Office where the
mail passed through Lewiston. The
drafts arrived by registered mail. Hibbs
signed fictitious names and returned q
receipt card, and the transaction was
completed. Money orders are limited TO
$50 in favor of one person, bat with
iorethought and judicious distribution Of
dates and places IN opening offers through
which pnscrupulous postmastets could
bankrupt the United States.
The amount OF the delaleation exceeds
SO, 600 and is expected to reach $4,000
The scheme is surprisingly simple and
officers are surprised that it was never
thought OF and worked before. John
Evans, the Cashier Of tho First National
Bank; VIM. Keltonhack, Cashier OF the
Lewiston National Bank; Alexander,
Thiesser and Woodworth were his bonds

the order Of business 70 be the submission
Of reports from States. A motion was

A communication was received trem the
Directors Of the Maryland Penitentiary, in
Baltimore, inviting the conference to visit
that institution.
Mr.. William Howard Netf, OF Cincinna-
Il, Chairman OF the Committee on Reports
from States, read the Committees report.
Notwithstanding the efforts OF the Com
mittee, 1t had not been able to secure re-
ports from all the States. Despite re-
cord of q few failures. the report was
highly encouraging. and the committee
suggested that its LIE be extended for an
other year, and that all persons possessing
knowledge Of matters Of interest be in
yited to communicate freely.
The report embodied abstracts of the
reports from the several States which
were read by the secretary OF the conven.
EiOn. or hv leiegateg from thA resnective
States.
The reports from several Southern States
noted the quite general reduction Of the
system Of hiring out conyicts, and the
adoption OF measures which had a ten
dency to mitigate the evils Of the system.
The report from Delaware noted the
mitigation Of the severity Of the whipping
system. Blood was rarely drawn at p es-
ent. The whippiugpost was in general
favor with the people OF Delaware for the
punishment OF petty ofCenses. It was
rarely found necessary to administer
second whipping to the same offender.

DLssatIstlsd Ones.

In tho Cablhot-Bayard and Garland The
Dissatisfied Ones.
Bosrox, June 5.-The Rrdld (Alug
wamp) has Washington special to the
effect that Attorney General Garland ha1
seriously contemplated sending in his
resignation rather than submitto be over,
ruled by the President in the matter o.
the Iowa marshalship. The man whom
Mr.. Garland had picked out was
a good man, but it was doubtful
whether he really belonged to the
Democratic party, and all the party lead,
ersfn Iowa were In favor of the rival can
didate, who was finally appointed by Mr..
Cleveland. Mr.. Garland did not carry
out his threat, but the situation that was
created by the incident remains, and,
should the President find 1t necessary in
other cases TO reverse appointments de-
tesmined on by Mr.. Garland, 1t will hard:
ly be doubted that he will prefer to leave
the Cabinet.
The despatch further says: .The fact
that Mr.. Bayard is able to leave Ills de-
partment at this time for q visit Of several
weeks In the West creates comment. So
also does the fact that since his departure
on Monday the President has sent to the
assistant secretary, Mr.. Porter, for List Of
all appointments made in the State De-
paftment since the 4th OF March, and also
q liat Of all the vacancies that have ex-
listed and all that exist at the
present time. It is remarked that,
| II the department can get along
without Mr.. Bsyard now for q eonsidera.
BILE period, perhaps it can run along with
out him at all. It is, however, hardly
probable that Mr.. Bayard will leave the
Cabinet this summer. Even II he does
not intend to stay, he will avoid an open
break with the President and will not go
now. That he wishes himself safely back
in the Senate again Is equally certain. II
will not be strange II he reappears in that
body within twelve month.
