OF b. w. Hanna who is now representing the
government near the capital Of the Argentine

partment about sending in Mr. Hannas name,

matte appointments submitted on Thursday
the only one, believe, that was missing; but
l think it will be determined to give Mr.. Hannas
friends chance to work him through if they
can, and Mr.. Voorhees,, who is always loyal to
his friends. will try to do it. Mr.. Bayard would
feel very much relieved if Mr.. Hannas nomina-
ton were rejected, for happen to know that he
does not consider the new minister to the
Argentine quite up to the standard we
ought to establish. He believes that
none but typical Americans should be sent
abroad-men who will represent the United

THE G. A. r. GRANT MONUMENT.

A Memorial that Promises To BE a Credit to
the Whole Country.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec 13.-It begins to look like
monument that will be credit to the memory
of the late General Grant. at the national Capi-
tai; in fact, it is already assured The officers of
the Grand Army of the Republic connected with
the national headquarters here report that their
scheme of raising funds for this purpose is prov
ing very successful, and that the monument will
be begun next spring. Circulars were some time
ago issued, calling upon the members of the
Grand Army of the Republic to contribute fifteen
cents per capita, the contributions to be col
lected by the posts throughout the country and
transmitted through department. headquarters to
the quartermaster general, and to be by him
specially deposited to the credit of the Grant mon
ument fund. All honorably discharged soldiers
and sailors not members of the Grand Army of
the Republic will be permitted to join in max
ing contributions. The local posts are permitted
to take from their treasures the amount equal
to fifteen cents for each member and transmit it
to the quartermaster- general for the fund, and
to REIN burSe their treasury by any mode of col
lection agreed upon.
1t has not been determined what locality in
thus city will secure the grand monument to be
erected by the soldiers of the country The
committee appointed TO select place for the
monument will be chosen after the fund HIS
been raised, and something like an approximate
estimate arrived at of the aggregate amount of
money to be expended. Lithographic or some
other suitable form OF engraving is to be fur
nished by the headquarters of the Grand Army,
upon which to record the subscriptions received
for this monument, and they are to be bound
into volumes and cared for as an evidence of the
assistance furnished by individual soldiers to-
ward the erection of the monument These en-
cravings will contain blanks to be filled out so
as to give name, rank, regiment and post of
each donor. They will be furnished the posts.
and after the contributions have been collected

THE REV. MR.. DOWNES.
The Indicted Minister breaches to a Large
Audence-Th by HIS Friends.

BosToN, Dec. l3.-Rev. W. W. Downes against
whom an indictment was found, yesterday, by
the grand jury, for adultery, preached to large
audience this evening. in Mechanics Hail. At
the close of his remarks he introduced Hon.
Marcus p Norton, who made the statement
that =. syndicate of Boston lawyers had been
fornEcsfor the defense of Downes in his forth
coming trial, and that the active COUNSEL for the
defense would be Hon. Roscoe Conkling aud
Gen. B. F. Butler. Mr.. Norton bitterly de-
nourced the grand jury's action
as having be brought about by
fraud and perjury, and delivered TRADE
against the churches. He said it was now pro-
posed to uncover the volcanoes of corruption in
two places called churches in this city, and the
result would be the greatest sensation ever
known in Boston. 1t may be stated that Mr.
Norton has recently been under treatment in an
insane asylum, having been a victim to the
opium habit.

atives of the Hennepin Canal.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-A very great change
has come over the lobby in Washington. A
number of correspondents have written that the
same old faces are here again in the same old
paths but those who are to cut any effective
figure in lobbying are new men, and their
schemes are new and their modes of operation
are new. A half dozen ex-congressmen and as
many ex-senators are in the lobby. Quite
number of prominent lawyers not heretofore
known as men who have tried to influence legis-
lation are in the lobby. They represent new
propositions to take the money of the people.
Half of the old hoary schemes which have been
as blisters upon Congress for decades will be
given new life this session. The new blood that
has come on the field brings new matter
Among the propositions which will receive a
great boost from able and new men to consume
money will be the Hennepln canal project which
will be largely represented by able attorneys
from the States directly interested; and the mail
subsidies, and the land grant railroads, and the
steamship companies which want subsidies,
and the ship builders, who want to help build up
the navy: and the gun foundries who want to
work the Notifications. etc.
There is little in the army of new lobbyists
that is ostentatious snowy. They are modest
and diplomatic and will get in their work more
effectively than did the men who gave dinners
and made great show.

Twelve Persons Lose Their Lives in Burn
ing Tenement-House.
LONDON. Dec. 13-At Plymouth, o-day, a
tenement-house, located on Love street. in low
and squalid neighborhood, took fire, and terri
bic calamity resulted. The flames burned rap
idly, and when at last subdued twelve human
bodies were found among the ruins. Two others
are missing, and in all probability they too have
been burned. One unfortunate victim was
smashed to pieces by jumping from a window to
the street. Several of the occupants of the
burning building, in their fright, ignored the
fire escape, and, throwing themselves from win
dows, fell to the pavement, forty feet below.
One lad, with his little sister in one arm, hung
suspended from window oy the other for some
minutes, until the flames surrounded him, and
caused him to lose his hold. and fall to the
ground. He had both legs fractured. The
child was also severely injured. The intensity
of the flames gave the building the appearance
of a furnace but this did not deter the firemen,
many of whom entered the house. and by a
heroic struggle succeeded in rescuing several
persons.

Animals in Wyoming.

CHICAGO, Dec. IA dispatch from Lander,

Black Hawk stallion and mountain lion. The
stallion was owned by Charles FL. Ferguson, a
wellknown hunter, camped on the banks of a
tributary Of the Wind river, up in the mount
aims He had selected small bunch of cotton
woods as his temporary home. These
gave him both shelter and frewood little
distance from the camp there stood an enormous
cottonwood, apart from all others, beneath
which was picketed the stallion. A few nights
ago Ferguson aroused from a sound sleep by
aneigh from the stallion. The sound seemed to be
one OF rage rather than alarm, and hastily arising
Ferguson issued from the tent and looked in the
direction of the horse. The animal was stand

horse sprang msdly in the air, uttering scream

and savagery. Though he returned to the

The lion speedily recovered himself and
sprang once more into the branches, and from
thence made another leap toward the horse; but
missed his aim. The lion began series of circles
nearer and nearer to the horse, and finally made
another leap. With the rapidity of thought the
stallion changed 'front.' and his hind feet heav-
