Don't Like His Style.

WASHINGTON, April 13.-Advices have
been received that the Argentine Republic
has written this Government to have recalled
Minister Bayless w. Hanna. 1t is alleged in
the request that Mr.. Hanna is not acceptable
to the people there, and they can not ac-
custom themselves TO his frank and generous
methods. The request can be construed into
meaning they want dude or some one who
knows more society and less about business.
The generous methods of the Wabash are
evidently not as highly appreciated as they
should be. Whether any action by the State
Department will be taken is not yet known

Protesting Against Convict Labor.

NH1lA6O, 41pIll 1J.-Al tue regular uccL-
ing of the Trades and Labor Assembly yes
terday Mark L. Crawford. of the committee
appointed to wait on members of the County
Board, who had the letting of the contract
for repairs on the County Courthouse, re-
ported that his committee visited the Com
missioners having the matter in charge and
protested against the contract being awarded
TO Z. r. Brainerci & Co. on account of their
being employers of prison labor, all the stone
used by them in their work being cut by con
victs at Joliet Penitentiary. The protest was
entered i've days TOO late, as the contract had
already been awarded. There was a clause
in the contract, however, prohibiting the
use of convict labor in the repairs.
The Committee then called upon Mr..
Bralnard, and after considerable difficulty
induced him to sign an agreement with the
committee binding himself to use none but
union labor on the Courthouse and to bid
for no more work in this city until he had
got from under the contract from the State,
which has become a burden to himself. He
also agreed not to renew his contract for
prison labor. The committee recommended
toaf, under this agreement the various
unions be allowed to let their members work
ON the place. This resolution produced a
very stormy debate. The motion to approve
the recommendation was lost, but upon re-
consideration, the whole matter was laid
over till the next meeting, in order to give
the stone cutters, If they 50 desire, an oppor-
tunity to amend their constitution.

WASHINGTON, April 15.--The Senate, in
executive session to-day confirmed the Ven
ezulesn treaty. They also took up the cele-
brated We'll and La Abra claims, which have
been before Congress for seven years. The
original claims aggregated over Sl,17O,0OO
and judgment in that amount against the
Mexican Government was rendered in 1873.
Since 1879 Congress has been investigating
these claims because of suspected fraud To-
day Senator Morgan made long speech in
favor of the claims, and Senator VOORHEES,
spoke against them. The debate was not
concluded. Senator Evarts, who was inter
ested in cases when Secretary of State, viii

TIE DULUTH FIRE.

~ On Saturday night, Duluth suffered
great calamity in the destruction by
fire of life and property. This loss'wili
not only be misfortune to the city
of Duluth, but it will be seriously
felt throughout the northwest 1t
will deprive the farmer of storage
capacity, which at this particular
time is very much needed, when
all the available wheat storage in
the northwest is demanded. There
are those, perhaps, who will make
use Of this loss in the destruction
OF so largea quantity of wheat for
gain. 1t can hardly be supposed,
however, that the destruction of
wheat at Duluth can materially ar
feet the market to any extent. The
total loss of grain in the two elevat.
ors is estimated to be about $4,000
bushels, the estimate value of which
will be about S5S8.0O0. The amount
of grain saved will perhaps be about
ten per cent. of total value. The
loss on elevators and grain will be
not far from $S40.OO0. on which
there is total insurance estimated
at about SOP $50.
The elevator oInpanies will suffer
loss in storage for the winter of
abont 100000.

THE INSANE ASYLUM. h,

The committee OF the chamber of
commerce, appointed to wait on the
third insane asylum commission, to
tender a better location than that
looked at while here last week, went
to st. Paul Monday night, and there
found Messrs. Bartlett and Hart, OF
the commission. Subsequently they
were Joined by H. G. Stordock,
another member of the commission.
The committees reception was all
that could be hoped for, and the
proposition which it bore, to substi.
tute another and better piece of land
for that which the commission
inspected, was very favorably
received. 1t was strongly upheld by
MIR. Stordock, who had examined the
substituted tract of land the Satur-
day previous. The details Of the
conference between the committee
and the commission are not yet to be
made public. and, indeed, the com.
mittee was not positively Informed
what the report would be, which the
commission is to submit and make
public next week, but there are at
least reasonable grounds for hoping
that the decision will be favorable
to Fergus Falls.
1t is sincerely hoped, in the inter
est Of Mr.. Stordock himself, that he
is grossly misrepresented in the
above item, clipped from the Fergus
Falls Journal. How Mr.. Stordock,
with duo reference to his duties as a
commissioner, which are Of a semi
judicial character, could strongly
uphold a Gel tain site at a meeting,
such as the one referred to, is beyond
comprehension. And again, Mr..
Stordock has never seen the proposed
site at Sank Centre, and did not visit
the one one at Alexandria when the
commissioners were there recently.
In view of these facts the Journal
must surely misrepresent Mr.. Stor-
dock, when it places him with the
Fergus Falls committee making a
special plea for that city, lather than
with the commission of which he
is a member, whose duty it is to
gravely and impartially weigh the
advantages offered by the several
sites proposed.
In fact, it hardly seems that Mr..
Stordock is in position to express any
preference at all, he not being famil.
lar with the points, which are of vital
Importance in reaching a decision
involving such great and permanent
interests TO the State at large.
