Why 1t Ii Improbable That Anything
VIII he Done.

Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
COLUMBUS OHIO, Dec. 3O.-The Ohio legislature
VIII reconvene on Tuesday next. There has been
talk OF late Of reopening the Payne case. While
the opinion prevails among many citizens of Ohio
that Mr.. Payne's election was secured by corrupt
methods, conservative members OF both parties
are inclined to believe that senator Payne
himself was ignorant of the methods adopted.
The republican leaders having the best interest
the party In view have heretofore expressed their
opposition to a reopen1ng OF the case, on the
ground that the legislature last winter afforded
ample opportunity to those who had charged
bribery to submit the evidence. But testimony
recklesSly made was never submitted The gen.
eral assembly will, during the winter, have more
important work on hand than hunting evidence
that cannot be found. Ii for no other reason. the
death OF Gen. Logan, who was 80 severely crtti-
c1sed because Of the part he took in the Senate,
Will have tendency to discourage further con-
sideration of the Payne case unless new revela-
tons from substantial parties should be presented

Further Details Of His Differences
With Lord SALISBURY.


With Lord salisbury.
Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
LONDON, Dec. 30.-It appears certain that Lord
salisbury Will remain prime minister. The most
probable outcome OF the present crisis will be
sof action which will practically be triumph for
himself. Chanberlain's attitude is entirely un-
certain, many conflicting rumors being in
circulation. / am able to add few
particulars. The budget upon which RAN
dolph resigned was bold and comprehensive.
The central feature was fiat refusal to stop an
anticipated deficit OF 100000 by the old expe-
dent OF adding two pence to the income tax. The
revenue returns show that although there are
signs OF returning prosperity, the excheQuer re-
cepts Will show defcict Of at least G., DOC, OOO
Churchill first determined he would cut down
the two great spending departments:
for the navy, and because the War department
was being drained OF guns and ammunition, a
large supplementary rate would be necessary to
refill the magazines. This rate Churchill proposed
TO aaoe by BY Stopping sas 10
c400 900 altogether in the dock and navy
estimates, and proposed to further reduce
the duties on tea and tobacco and re-
eun the income tax by penny, and
tails OF which are profound secret. Salisbury
opposed this budget from the first. Churchill saw
his position and resigned. may add he said pri-
vately to friend he would have resigned in any
case, finding himself so much at loggerheads with
Old tOry1sm, and taking an occasion for resignation
from department with which he happened to be
connected. The tory rank and file are gradually
rallying round Churchill. Should anybody but
would find himself at the head OF the majority Of
the conservative party.
