Hon. Lorenzo B. Whiting. of III
inois, who has been Republican Sen
ator for many years, has openly es-
poused the cause of Cleveland, and
favors the calling of national con
vention of Republicans who are op-
posed to the monopoly tendencies
of the Republican party, to consider
what course they shall pursue. He
says Republican discomfort is wide
spread, and ifopportunity is given
for formal expression of the rea-
sons and purpose of such action,
antiwar tariff Republicans will come
out in favor of Cleveland and Thur
man in numbers that will astonish
the country. We infer from the
lively way in which Cleveland flop
pers are now everywhere bobbing up
that ex-senator Whiting is quite cor
rect.

John Sherman is evidently not in
accord with the Chicago platform
He made quite a sensation in his
speech at Cincinnati by endorsing
President Cleveland's letter and
policy. Saying that it was poor
policy to have surplus in the
treasury, and that what we want is
just enough funds for the needs of
the government economically adj
ministered, and he hoped that
prompt action would be taken to
devise some means of collecting
only SO much as was necessary for
that purpose. He further said that
he had found politics stale, fiat and
unproftabiy.

The vote upon the amendment to
strike tin-platc from the free list in
the Mills bill was crucial test of
the disposition of the House. We
have rumors of tin mines in this
country, but no tin worth mention
ing. AS we do not need five mill
ions of revenue collected on import
ed tin-platc, and as five million of.
dollars Of yearly advantage has not
proved sufficient inducement for
building up a tin industy in this
country, it is high time that this
article of universal use should be un-
taxed. The Republican opposition
to cheap tin ought to be an eye
opener for wor1ingmen of the
United States. Tin is a necessity
in every household in the country.

jaw, and part of the neck OF a
man on the ground where the hogs
had been. The hogs we're traced
to a cave near by, from which a
horrible odor came. No one dared
to enter the cave, however, as it
was on the ground of the Hill boys,
who had forbidden any one to go
near it. The smell and the disap-
pearance of the peddIers were put
together, but nothing could be
made ont. Yesterday afternoon
Mary Smith, who was housekeepeT
for the Hill brothers, ran into the
house of James Jones, the nearest
neighbOr of the Hills, and asked
for protection. She was told nc
harm should come to her, and when
she quieted down made a horrible
confession, which was, in substance,
that she was forced by the Hill
brothers to assist In the murder OF
the peddlers. They attempted tc
smother them with quilt, but the
peddlers struggled 80 hard that
Henry Hill gave her a knife and
told her to cut their throats, which
she did, and caught their blood in
a dishpan. The Hills took their
bodies to the eeller, where they
we're two days, and then were taken
away, she knew not where. The
victims had about 5000 on theiT
persons in iewelry and other things
