THE YUCATAN CoNsULsHIP.
A Scientific Antiquarian Who is Bring
ing an Old Civilization tn Light

Scientific Antiquarian Who is Bring
ing an Old Civilization to Light.
WASHINGTON, March 2O.-Justice Field
was surprised to receive the other day let
ter from an old California friend of his who
was his next door neighbor in Marysville.
his old California home, in 1849. The let
ter was from DR.. LIE Plongeon, who was
the surveyor of the place where Mr..
Field first lived when he went to CalifOr-
MIA. lie PlongeOn has since become an
eminent scientist, who has made a great
reputation in the scientific world through
bis explorations in Mexico, South and
Central America. He has devoted his
entire life to developing the true history
OF the civil and religious laws of the
nent. He is doing on this CONT
nent what Champollion LIE Jeune has
done go well in Egypt. lie Plongeon has
discovered wonderful evidence of the
ruined cities of the Mayas in Mexico. He
believes that the Mayas were contempo-
rary with the ancient Egyptians, and
that they were of the same race and that
their language was very similar. He has
discovered hieroglyphics which are ex-
actly similar to those recorded by Cham
pOlliOn in the record of his researches in
Egypt. LIE PlOngeon has never been en-
cOuraged by the Mexican Government.
he has been obliged to conduct all of his
explorations at his own expense. In 1876
ne eXcaYated a great statue of the Mayas.
1t is called Chaacmal. The Mexican
Government sent gunbOat, the Libertad,
against his party, and took this statue
away from him. Senator Hoar sought to
protect him, but President Grant
thought it might lead to unpleasant COM
plicatiOns, so he did nothing. lie
Plongeon now seeks the consulate at
Yucatan, and has asked Justice Field,
his old California friend, to use his
good offices. Their is no salary attached
to the place. The fees are very small, the
post is not regarded as a very desirable
one. The scientist, however, desires the
shield OF its official character to protect
him in making further explorations and
Investigations. He believes that there
still exist in Mexico the books of the
ancient MaYas Sagas, which were buried
800 years ago to save them from destruc-
ton. With the discovery of these books
be is certain that he can prove the reIa-
tion between the Mayas and the ancient
Egyptians. Justice Field presented the
papers of LIE PIOngeOn at the State De-
partment to-day. 1t is probable that he
will be appointed to the place or to one
near it. Miss Cleveland has had some
correspondence with this scientist and is
very much interested in the object that he
seeks to accomplish. Her influence will
hasten decision in his IA

THE NEWS OF MACON.
Robbery and Possible Murder in
Gambling Den-A Mercantile Row

Robbery and Possible Murder in a
Gambling Den-A Mercantile Row.
MACON, GA, March 25.-About a week
ago W. E. Jackson, of Byron, came to
Macon to negotiate the loan of $1,000 on
some real estate. He obtained the money.
He was accompanied by his son, young
man, who took 81, 500 of the money and re-
turned to his home. His father remained
in Macon with the other $500 to make a
few purchases. The same night MIR.
jackson was found in a cellar in a noto-
rious gambling alley, known as the ''saw
DUST" in an unconscious condition. The
son was telegraphed and he returned to
Macon, and carried his father
home. Nothing can be traced
OF the money, and Jackson has remained
in an unconscious condition since. Mr..
Tom Warren, OF the same place, came to
Macon to-day and reported that Jackson
was dying, and that he would institute
inquiries as to the manner he met his
death, believing that he was decOyed in
the alley and robbed. The police will be
put in possession of all the facts and the
case be thoroughly sifted.
At family burial ground in the su-
burbs or Macon, on a place belonging to
Harry Tindall, some miscreants stole
three tombstones and desecrated the rest
of the monuments.
CLAIMS OF THE WHOLESALERS.
The wholesale grocery merchants held
a meeting yesterday afternoon in the par
lors of the Exchange Bank, at which
every wholesale firm of the kind was
represented. Desh Tinsley, of the firm
of Tinsley Bros, was elected Chairman,
The meeting was called to take some ac-
tlon in reference to the brokers selling to
retail dealers. A resolution was passed
pledging each firm from patronizing such
brokers as would hereafter sell to the re-
tail trade. The wholesale trade claim
that 1t is an injustice that has been going
on for long time, ard is
daily growing to larger proportions, and
that 1t has worked irreparable injury to
them, and they propose to put a quietus
on the movement. 1t is understood that
the wholesale dealers will ask merchants
in other cities to join with them in the
movement. Considerable feeling has
been engendered, the brokers claiming
that such movement will ruin their
business, and is an injustice to them.
some interesting developments are looked
for in the matter. There is much excite
ment about the matter.
Ex-GOv. John p. st. John, of Kansas.

celved. At the close numbers of ladies
gathered around and congratulated him.
He will leave in the morning for Atlanta,
where he lectures tomorrow night. An
incident of the lecture was the carrying

HUNGARIAN ETIQUETTE.
A Social Call Which Solved a Serious
Parliamentary Opposition.

Parliamentary Opposition.
VIENNA, March 22.-The reform of the
Hungarian Upper House can now be
looked upon as accomplished. A COM
promise has been effected between the
Conservative aristocrats and the Hun
garian Premier, Rerr Tisza, the essential
point of which was that Herr and Frau
Tisza should pay visit of ceremony to
the Count and Countess Tassilo de Feste-
tics.
Count Tassilo Festetics married in 1880,
with the assistance OF a special dlspensa-
tlon from Rome, the divorced wife of the
Prince of Monaco. She is the daughter of
the late Duke of Hamilton by his wife. a
sister of the present Grand Duke of Baden.
and by her own particular desire was
divorced from the Prince of Monaco. as
she had a complete aversion to him. With
her second husband she came to Hungary
and resided on the Counts colossal
estates.
Herr Tisza and his wife omitted to call
on the new arrivals, and soon began a
strong opposition in the ranks of the Con-
servatiye mobiles against Herr Tisza, the
Hungarian Premier. Before that time he
was allvpowerful, now he could not
get any bill passed in the upper house.
Ihe mixed marriage bill was thrown out
no less than three times, Count Festetics
beng the chief of the opposition. On
Friday Herr and Frau Tisza paid the long
neglected visit to the Countess and the
opposition of the Conservative party has
Immediately ceased. The reform bill will
be accepted in somewhat modified form.

How cox CAME To BE APPOINTED.
OF course Sunset COx's appointment as
Minister 10 Tur.ey, over which Washing
ton has beeH smiling ali the evening, be-
gan In joke. Mr.. Cox said jOkingly to a
friend who wanted to visit the American
Legation at Constantinople that he
guessed the only way was to have S. s.
Cox, OF New York, made Minister to
Turkey. Mr.. COX's remark was repeated
OF course, and the appointment began to
be talked about as possible one. Then
Mr.. Cox got TO thinking seriously
about it. He was in Constan-
tinople during his last Euro
pean tour. He liked his experience
there, and in fact all through the East
The more he thought Of it the more at
tractive 1t seemed. The salary of the
Minister to Turkey, formerly $500, was
raised by Congress last session to
$4,000. The term OF the office will
probably be four years. Last year
Mr.. Cox had some difficulty to get his re-
nomination to Congress. The next at
tempt might be more difficult. Mr.. Cox is
no longer young except In heart. He was
60 on Sept. 20 last. On the whole Mr.. Cox
thought that he would like to 20 to Turkey.
The President, like everybody else,
likes MIR. Cox. When he heard that Mr.
Cox wanted to go as Minister to Turkey
he sent HIM word that he would nominate
him. He kept his word to-day. The first
Mr.. Cox { who is under the weather, and
so confined to his rOom) knew of it was
in kilograms of congratulations from
New York, which began to pour in early
in the afternoon. Mr, Cox will take oc-
casion to thoroughly explore the Holy
Land while he is abroad, and will proba-
bly, write book or two. The nomination
is universally approved. Mr.. Cox will
be greatly missed from the House.

Recess CIerks for CommIttees.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-The Republl.
can Senators held a caucus this morning
to consider the Sherman resolution, which
is as follows:
ResoSred. That so much Of the several
resolutions of the Senate passed since March
l, as provides for a clerk for any standing
committee of the Senate during the recess of
Congress, be and Is hereby rescinded.
No action was taken, and another eau
Gus Will be held to consider the matter.
About dozen resolutions authorizing
standing committees of the Senate to
employ recess clerks have been intro
duced, two or three of which are still
pending.
Considerable feeling was manifested,
and it was stated by some Senators who
have secured employment for their clerks
that if the Sherman resolution was adopt
ed they would favor an entire revision Of
the committee list.
The subject of final adjournment was
alluded to, and the Presidents wish that
the Senate should remain until the end Of
the week was made known.
Without any formal action tacit un-
derstandIng was reached that the minor
treaties should be considered at such
times as the Senate was not engaged with
nominations.
