Mr.. Jef Chandler, Of the government counsel in
the Bell telephone suit, told STAR reporter to-day
that the government counsel will not appeal the

realize that 1t would be impossible to get action
by the Supreme Court for at least two years. The
overcrOwded condition or the docket would natur-
ally throw the case over until next term, and It
would be almost impossible to get II advanced,
since the court has several times refused to ad-

What Mr.. Bayne Thinks.

THAT THE PRESIDENT Is LESS POPULAR AND THAT
THERE sWuL BE NO TARIFF LEGISLATION THIS
SESSION. 81
Representative Bayne says he thinks the Presi-
dent is losing his popularity with the people, and
will probably not receive denomination by the
party. AS Republican, he says he would rather
see Mr.. Cleveland than Mr.. Hill get the nOmina-
ton.
AS for the Republican nomination, he says he
thinks no sort OF opposition can prevent Mr..
Blatne'S getting 1t II he desires 1t.
MFR. Bayne says he does not think there will be
any legislation beyond the passage OF the appro-
prfati0n bills this session. He thinks the tariff
legislation, whatever there Is OF it, will be enacted
by the 5Oth Congress-. He says 1t will probably
consist Of repeating the tax on domestic tobacco
and the duty on sugar. This would reduce the
revenue Of the government about $78 OOO, 900.
