NOT GOOD FRIENDS.
Blaine and Logan Pass Each Other by In
New York

Blaine and Logan Pass Each other by In
New York.
WASHINGTON, November 25.-Mr.
Blaine and General Logan were ut the
same hotel in New York the other day,
had rooms on the same corridor, and
took their meals at tables that adiOined,
but they did not call upon each other, and
il they had met accidentally | am quite
sure that Logan would not have been
the first to speak. If either had been
anxious to see the other plenty Of OppOr-
tumitieS were offered, and they sat within
arms length of each other ut the church
Mai FasSett, who was deputy marshal of
the district andcr Col. McMichacl, had
charge of the church and seated the public
men himself, us familiar with all their
likes and diSlikcS, and took good care not
Ia make any one uncomfortable by giving
him diSagrccablc neighbors.
heard IN interesting story the other
day about the first call Logan made upon
Blaine. Before the Republican convention
of ISL Mr. Blaine. sought a conference
with Mrs. Logan, whom he told he did not
expect to he nominated, and through her
arranged for a coalition between Blaine and
Logan managers, William Walter
Phelps acting Us go-hetwCcn. Logan
was assured that the Blaine
strength would be cast for him
on the second ballot. The day before the
convention Mr. Phelps tclcgraphcd the
Genera; that it would be impossible to do
that and asked if he would accept the
Vice-P Presidency. Logan replied that he
would prefer his seat in the Senate, and
emphaticalTy declined. Then when Blaine
was nominated the second place on the
ticket WAS given him, nolcns vOlcnS.
When his friends returned from the
convention and reported to Logan all that
had occurred, and charged treachery on
Blaine'S part, the General got in his car
riage with Mr., Logan and drove to
Blaine'S house on Lafayette square for an
explanation. They sent up their cards,
and after waiting long time the servant
returned with the word that Mr..
Blaine was not feeling well, and asked to
be excused. That was the end Of the
long intimacy between the two families,
and Blame and Logan have since met only
in the presence of large numbers of people,
in the most formal manner.

The Knox County, Ky.. Affair Growing in
Horror.

L.OUIINILLE, KY, November 21.-A
Courier Journal special says: AS develop

fair grows in horror. II is undOuhtly true
that Mrs. Poe aud her two lady guests
were raped, and together with the five
children were murdered and then burned
up in the house. The devils who did it
are not positively known though
suspicion rests upon one John Warm and
his alleged wife, who were neighhOrS OF
the PoeS. 1t is mistake to say that ar
rests haye been made, though they are
likely to he at any moment, and If the
proof is good against the suspected parties

THOMAS CLUYERIUs.
His Whereabouts on the Night OF Lillian
Madison's Murder.


RICHMOND, Va, November T.-lt IS
stated upon what is regarded undoubted
authority that Thomas ]. Cluverius, the
young lawyer who is in Jail here under
sentence of death for the murder of Lillian
Madison, has prepared, or is preparing, a
written statement. 1t is believed that IN
this paper the condemned man will give
an account of his movements on
the night that Lillian Madison met
her death in the reservoir in the
western suburbs of this city. To-day, IN
response to message received from Gu
yerius, Mr.. +. A. Howell, of Alexandria,
who to-day submitted statement to Gov
ernor Lee, signed by himself and six mem-
bers of the jury that tried the prisoner,
called at the Jail in response to'a message
received from the latter. Mr.. Howell had
a long interview with the condemned man.
This is what Mr.. Howell says transpired in
that interview.
"As entered Cluverius' cell he was
standing near the center of the room. lie
stepped forward, shook hands with me,
and invited me to take seat. asked
him if he read the Richmond papers Of to-
day containing letter signed by myself
and six other members OF the jury. He
replied Yes and said that he didn't
blame us for the course we had taken
| said to him: Tommy. God knows that
not a man on that jury wanted your blood.
We only did what the law required Mt our
hands, to bring in verdict of murder in
the first degree III make statement
to you, said tbs prisoner, giving an ac-
count OF myself from the time of my ar
rival in Richmond up to the time of my
arrest, will it make any difference with
you and other iurors| If you can prove
your innocence, replied, every member
of the jury will be glad for you to do so. ,
After few common place remarks | left
the prisoner, promising to call in the al
ternoOn to hear his statement"
Juror Howell failed to call in the after
noon, but did so at night, but too late to
gain admission to the prison. Mr.. Willie
Cluverius, brother of the prisoner, to-
night confirmed the statement that his
brother contemplated making n state
ment of the character indicated. The I'M
pressionIis that this paper has already been
prepared, and will, it may he, Represented
to the Governor tomorrow, along with
the doomed mans petition for par
don or communication of his sentence.
The public will look forward for the
promised communication with intense in
tercSt. What Cluvcrius is expected to re-
veal in that is of course the Keynote of
the whole situation. All through the long
and tedious trial and in the eighteen
months that have interviewed since its
close, the one important question connected
with the reservoir tragedy has been: "Why
doesn't Cluverius account for himself on
that night if he CAM

POLITICAL PUZZLE.
Letters Prom Democratic Congressman On TIT
Tariff.

Boston, November 27.-SOme weeks
ago, the Globe sent letters of inquiry to
leading Democratic congressman asking
what action Congress should take ON the
tariff question in the coming session.
Nearly all the replies favor a revision OF
the present laws though they differ as to
the means by which it should he accom-
plished Following is an abstract of the
replies which the Globe will print to-mor-
row:
Congressman Collins says: "The attitude
of the majority should be to press some
scheme of reduction to vote under the
operations ofthe previous question if pos
sible"
Congressman Bragg, of Wisconsin, says:
believing myself that reduction of the
tariff is essential to prosperity i'll business
to the country at large, am in favor of
keeping it constantly to the front until
success attends the effort, and reasona-
bic measure of commercial freedom is OBJ

II. Hyatt, of Charlottesville, Ind, says:
IL sawssoon after the inauguration Of presi-

to run in the same channel with the Re

the finance, OH the tariff and on the land
question. Cleveland'S policy is in opera

and in word, is simple sub-letting of

With such policy the great

my knowledge, have voted the Republican

The excitement at the Conyngham shaft
having subsidized, ADMINISTRATION WAS made
to-day to ascertain the extent of the dam
age caused by the explosion. 1t was
found that the company will suffer but
little loss by the damage to the workings.
The BALTIC Slope suspended operations to-
day owing to the large quantities of gas
working in from the Conyngham mine,
with which it is connected. None of the
twelve men who were reported yesterday
as having been fatally burned, have died.
