MESTERN CONGRESSMEN
Enrouts to Chicago by Re-
pOFtsrs mt Pittsburgh.

pOrtefh ut l'lttbbuFkns
PITTsBURon, June l4.-There was a
notable gathering of Republicans ut
Union station this morning enroute to
Chicago. Among the number were Sem
ator Spooner, of Wisconsin; Senator
stockbridge, of Michigan, and Congress
men Mckinley and Butterworth, of
Ohio. While taking breakfast the gem
tlemen were all disposed to talk quite
freely.
Senator spooner said: "Tbe indica-
tions point TO the selection OF one candi-
date from New York and the other from
Indiana. 1t is necessary that one of the
candidates belong to Indiana, and It is
unfortunate that two residents from that
State should be in the field"
Senator Stockbridge said the Michigan
delegation was not only going to present
General Ayers name, but would nom
mate him. The delegation was solid.
Hon. Benz. Butterworth said the con.
vention would be the greatest ever held

said he, depend the future, more than
ever, Of the Republican party. 1t means
that the future will either be one OF
grand success or the going to pieces OF
the party. Ifa destructive element tries
to nominate man whom wiser hands
know might be defeated, then We might
rs well divide the assets and build up
the party anew. But l do not expect
such n result. believe wise cOuise
will be pursued and strong man NOM
mated. The talk OF more Blaine letters
is nonsense. Blaine's honor lies between
himself and acceptance of the nomina-
ton after the two letters he has written.
| would regard it as an indiscretion in
his friends to crowd his name into the
convention after these two letters"
Major Mckinley said Sherman was
sure OF 800 votes on the first ballot, and
he had every reason to believe lie would
be nominated. "Blaine," said he, "was
out of the race. The platform would be
squarcly on protection"

protection, he being member OF the
National Roofing Association. He also
gave Mr.. Reed, OF Maine, Il going over
for his remark made several days ago to
the effect that it was not worth while to
keep on lying on the tariff, and finally
he declared that there was n criminal
combination between the Republican
leaders and the manufacturers. The
Republicans greeted this with burst oi
derisive applause.
Mr.. Weber's motion to strike glue and

SOME POINTED COMMENTS.
Eastern Editorial Utterances ON tho PolIt-
IeRI Situation.


New YoKK, June 1.-THE World to-
day says: "The power OF the President,
now greater in the matter OF appoint
ments than that OF any monarch in Eu-
rope, should be curtailed alike for his
own relief and for the good of the Re-
public. The stake in elections should be
ideas, not spoils. Congressman should
not be mere office brokers. The public
business should be conducted MS busi-
ness, not as q political machine. The
reform may be side-tracked, but it can
not be permanently stopped"
The Tribune says: "The Democrats
have done,the will oitheir master, Cicye-
landI. The Republicans will do the
will OF their masters, the people, aud
win strive to submit ticket which the
people will support though the office
holders will not. Mr.. Cleveland's office
holders constitute powerful army, l0O,-
900 strong, thanks to the painstaRing de-
feat Of Civil Service Reform by u reform
President. But he will find that his
100000 appointments have hurt him at
least MS much us they have helped, and
that the zeal OF Republicans for sound
principles is worth Mt least rs much as
the zeal OF otllceholders for their pay"
The Times says: "If the Republican
convention can turn ont an honorable
candidate with Il rational declaration Of
policy, it will be an evidence OF strength
and vitality in the party for which its
best friends have hardly been able to
give it credit"
The Sam saws: at is eminently de.
sirable that the free trade idea should
be climited from the Democratic side OF
the canvass, and nothing would be so
useful in accomplishing that result Us
the disappearance Of the Mills bill under
Il storm OF Democratic opposition and
the certain, safe and sure reduction Of
the surplus in the manner proposed by
the Hon. Samuel J. Randall"
The Herald says: Protection is all
right when it has a universal applica-
ton. With anything less than that it is
a sham and u humbug. II the Republi-
can wants to protect a thousand and let
nine thousand go to the workhouse,
while the Democrat wants TO protect the
whole ten thousand by fair play all
around, the workingmen need not think
twice before they learn who their friends

THE GHOST STOOD BY HIS BED.
A Singular Death Follows Mysterious
Murder In Chicago.

Sultukos
CHICAGO, June 1.-THE mystery about
the murder of William Barrett, the
Pinkerton detective, May %, has never
been cleared up, although the murdered
mans wife and his brother-in-law were
arrested for the crime. A bartender
named James Pope, with his two sisters,
lived in the same house with Barrett,
and it was surmised that they knew
something about the murder. as one OF
the.s;sterS was detected sending an anopy-
nous note 10 Captain 0'Donnell, OF the
police, declaring that Mrs. Barrett and
her brother were the reai murderers.
Pope died yesterday under somewhat
peculiar circumstances. Three nights
after the murder he ran screaming into
his sisters room in great fright and
fell into swoOn. When he recovered
he said that the ghost OF the. murdered
man had stood by the bed and awakened
him. His sisters tried TO convince him
that he had been dreaming, but he in
sisted that he had seen a real spirit.
The next night the scene was repeated,
and for several nights thereafter. The
Young man began to grow thin and pale
under the worry and excitement. The
sisters say they sat up with him one
night and heard the groaning and rap.
pings which their brother had described.
The nightly visits went on, and young
Pope's health became so bad that ply,
sician was called in. He efailed steadily
however, and Friday he was taken to
the county hospital, where he died yes
terday morning.

lively through Victoria, Winnipeg and

DENVER, Coll, June 14.-Charles +.
Crocker, of the California delegation,
said to-day: "WhiIe we are all for
Blaine we do not desire to have the
people understand that we will cast our
votes solid for him on the first ballot II
Blaine will not accept we will consult
our friends in Indiana, New York and
other States and will then support the
candidate who will have the great inhu-
enue in carrying the doubtful States.
We have not yet thought OF Vice
President and will give no attention to
this until we have determined upon II
man to fill first place. We have only
one thing to ask Of the convention. We
will present the name OF NJ. NJ. Estes, OF
Napa, for temporary Chairman, and
would like to see him unanimously
elected"
Mr.. BARN, chairman of the Oregon
delegation, had nothing to say except
that they were all for Blaine.

bers. Governor Williams called out the
militia, and Gen. Dan McCauley, and
not Gen. Harrison, was appointed to
command. Gen. Harrison and Judge
Gresham each commanded companies
Of patrols. Efforts were being made to
run trains, and Us the strikers did not
desire to prevent the prompt and regu-
ular carrying OF the mails, trains for that
purpose were permitted to arrive and
depart, but it was attempted TO keep
any one from taking passage thereon:
In some cases violence was used, and
men and women were forcibly taken
the cars.
In consultation between sub-com:
mittee OF the Committee on Safety and
OF the strikers, General Harrison pointed
out that such action would tend to al
lienate from the strikers the sympathies
OF the people; thatit was an interference
with the rights OF the friends Of the
strikers, as some Of them were compelled
to seek transportation.
The General was the attorney for the
receiver OF the Ohio & Mississippi, one
OF the roads affected by the strike. Sew
eral parties were arrested for interfering
with the running OF trains on that Us
well as other roads. Mr.. Harrison, as
attorney for the receiver, appeared and
prosecuted the cases before Judge Drum;
mond. The parties were convicted and
sentenced to q term in the county jail.
After they had been there few days
General Harrison went to Judge Drum
mond and told him ne thought they had
been punished enough, and they ought
to be released from the rest of the SEN
tence. Upon his representation the
Judge did release them. When released,
several, il not all OF them, called upon
General Harrison and thanked him for
his efforts in their behalf, saying ut the
same time that il they had taken his
advice they would not have been pun
ished at all, and pledged him their future
friendship. No visit that was ever paid
to him gave him half so much pleasure.

BERLIN, June l4.+Dispatches from
Potsdam report that nourishment was
repeatedly administered to the Emperor
last evening by means OF enemas and
also by means OF q tube contrived by
DR.. Mackenzie. He gained some strength
and the fever did not increase so rapidly
us on previous nights; but it was ap-
parent that he has not regained ON any
one day since his last relapse all the
strength which he lost the previous day.
The temporary rallies Of the patient were
brief and delusive, leaving him in a
worse condition than before. Medical
experts are now inclined to the opinion
that the Emperor will gradually die OF
exhaustion. The Empress is constant
in her attendance at the bedside OF her
husband.
Sir Morell Mackenzie succeeded in
the course OF the eveningin altering the
canula in the Kaiser's throat 80 as to
afford relief to the illustrious patient,
who was thereupon able to breathe more
freely. Prof. Won Bardeben and Won
Leyden reached the Castle later and re-
mained there during the night. The
Crown Prince, who had been summon
ed about midnight, likewise remained
at the palace.
The meeting OF the Emperor and the
King OF Sweden yesterday afternoon
was not without its tinge Of sadness, but
the illustrio9s patient was hopeful and
tried to infuse courage into those about
him. King Oscar found him greatly
changed and very weak. He was more.
over painfully struck by the Kalser's
accelerated breathing, but tits important

impeded breathing. The interview only
lasted q few minutes but was OF cor,
