typcctcd Russian visitors,

According to the st. Petersburgh CORE
spondent Of the New York Herald Russian
squadron will soon visit this country ac-
companied by several of the Grand Dukes.
The correspondent says: "Itis proposed to
send to the United States a squadron on a
friendly errand. Several Grand Dukes are
anxious to make the trip, and the squadron
is to be under the command OF one Of our
ndmirals. 1t has been even suggested that
the Grand Dukes should 20 incOanito, and

pire. The mission Of the Grand Ducal party

Government, having for It's object the
annulment of the Bell patent, should it
be proved to have been procured by
fraud or not TO have had the required
priority of invention, is an Infamous at
tack. In short, the Bell Company is
extremely saucy. The gambler has a

The Tribune urges that there should be no
opposition TO the bill TO increase the salaries
OF United states District Judges to $1,000,

The Sun continues Its urgent appeals to

THE investigation of the charges
against Senator Payne has about closed
in Columbus, Ohio, Although the
committee which has been conducting
the investigation has done 50 with
closed doors, II seems to be pretty well
understood that they have not found
anything that fixes upon Mr.. Payne
the charge of bribery, although it is
said that the committee deems the
testimony which they have taken TO be
of sufficient Importance TO forward 1t
TO the L. S. Senate for such action as
that body may seem proper to take.
The most significant circumstance in
connection with the investigation is
that the testimony of Colonel Oliver
Payne, W. Z. Thompson, secretary of
the Standard Oil Company, and Mr..
John r. Mclean, who are supposed to
know good deal about the case, has
not been accessible to the committee
because of the absence of those gentle.
men from the State of Ohio. But the
committee had several seances with
Colonel Sim Donavin, who knew all
about 1t at the start and who seems to
have known but little about II when
before the committee. 1t is said that
Senator Payne, when the result of the
Ohio investigation reaches the U. S.
Senate, will demand searching in
vestigation by the Committee on
Privileges and Elections. But If the
reports Of what the Ohio committee
has not found out are true, there is no
reason why Mr.. Payne should seek a
further yindication.
