 PETERSBURG, Va, July 23.-The Republi- can state committee, of which ex-Senator Malone is chairman, will meet at Mahone's residence tonight, when matters relating to the approaching presidential contest will be discussed One of the most important mat ters the committee will have before it will be that in reference to the electoral tickets of the two warning factions. It is pretty we'll understood that Malone intends to have his electoral ticket and none other, and will under no circumstances yield to the Wise Brady faction.
 During the past week Malone has had several prominent Republicans from the north to call on him to discuss the political outlook. Ex-Governor Cameron and ex- Congressman Brady are watching the situa- ton and the movements of the Malone faction closely. The state committee meet ing will be followed on Tuesday night by Q grand ratification meeting to ratify the nomination of Harrison and Morton. Speeches will be made by Mir. Malone, Col. William Lamb, of Norfolk; F. S. Blair, Brown Allen, and other prominent Republi- cans of the Malone faction

PITTsBURG, July 23.-The preachers of this town don't take kindly to the bar attachment of the Pennsylvania railroad buffet cars In his sermon last night the Rev J. T. McCrary, of the Third United Presbyterian church, said: "A few years ago, when the grocery stores were kept open, Christian mel said they had to keep open or lose their trade \ the great Pennsylvania Railroad com pany, to increase its wealth, proposes to run bar on its trains. Think of it. A bar S6O miles longl I don't see why they do this ex- cept for gain. Passengers don't need the liquor They can surely get enough of whisky
 in Philadelphia to last them to Pittsburg. Every Christian man in that corporation will have to sell his stock in order to keep his skirts clear"

A GREAT DEBATE.
St. Louis the Theatre for a great Tariff
 Discussion.

ST. LOUIS, July 23.-The Supreme council of the Legion of Honor here have taken steps towards securing a series of entertainments that will undoubtedly attract the attention of the whole country.
 One of the constitutionally expressed op- jects of this well-known order is to afford educational advantages to it's members. It is proposed to secure Music hall for six addresses on the tariff question, three from such eminent Democrats as Speaker Carlisle s. s. Cox, R. Q. Mills and Henry Watterson, and three from such eminent Republicans as James G. Blaine, Thomas B. Reed, Wm. Nc Kinley and Gov. Foraker.
 To prevent all partisan advantage in the management of these entertainments the ex- scutive committee that will have charge of the matter is composed of the supreme chan cellor of the Legion and three Democrats and three Republicans.
 Music hall will seat about 5000 persons. and as the admissions will be limited to the members of the Legion and to applicants for membership and the ladies accompanying them, the audience will be of a kind that even the eminent orators named are not accus- toned to addressing. The fact that one-half of each audience will differ in belief with the orator addressing it, will, it is believed, elim- mate all partisaGship from the thoughts pre- sented, and secure an able, dignified and tatesmanlike discussion of the greatest ques- ion of the day.
 In addition to the wide dissemination these addresses still have through the columns of the local press, the Legion of Honor will print them for the use of its members, and then turn the electrotype plates over to the State committees of the two parties, so that the pleasure and the benefit of the six addresses will be shared by all the people of the great Southwest.
 Influential friends of MT. Blaine and MT. Carlisle have already promised to secure those gentlemen for speeches, and the high character of the Legion of Honor, its large membership now exceeding 4,0o0 in number, and the hearty support the leading politicians of the State, of both parties, will give to this movement, all unite in the promise that these meetings will be highly successful.

soor Outlook for Interesting Business
 at Washington This Week.
 WASHINGTON, July 23.-There are fewer Congressmen in town to-day than at any time since the session opened. The Democrats had tried to get a recess and lost it because they were afraid to go on record as asking for it, but after their proposition had been voted down both Democrats and Republicans agreed on kind of recess anyhow.
 When the o'clock train left for the North the reilroad station looked as though Con- gressional excursion was starting of, and the late evening and Sunday trains carried as many Congressmen as ordinary people.
 MT. Reed went to Boston. where he ad- dresses & ratification meeting tomorrow night, MT. Phelps to New York, MT. Hiscook toward Now York for day or two of rest and dozens of other membrs to the seashore. The outlook for interesting business in the first days of the week is not very good.

A Brutal Murder.

CHICAGO. July 23.-Henry Romaz was de- liherately and brutally murdered by Theo- dnre Sutter about midnight Romaz had been paying attentions to Sutter's sister, winch Sutter objected to. Sutter came home, and, learning that Romaz had been at the house in the evening, seized a butcher knife and started i'll search of him. Finding him on the street, without a word he plunged the knife into Romazs breast with such force as to completely sever two ribs. He then returned to his house, where, in company with three friends, he barricaded himself and savagely resisted arrest, but was finally overpowered and locked up. Romaz died after identifying Sutter as his murderer.

MANAGER PALMER.
Wnllack's Theatre to Return to the
 Stock System.


 NEW YORK, July 23.-Beginning with Oct. 8 next Palmer will be the sole manager of Wal lacks Theatre. With the exception of next season. which is nearly all mortgaged t Henry E. Abbey for the introduction of hLs at- fractions, the house will not be run on the combination system.
 The contract has not yet been signed, but the terms have been agreed on, the prelimin- aries have all been settled to the satisfaction of both parties to the arrangement, and all that remains to make the transfer binding is the formal signing of the contract, which will probably be affixed to-day.
 It Is more than likely that under this new management the old name of Wallack's The atre will disappear from the history of the New York stage. MT. Palmer secures the absolute right to the theatre to do with it as he pleases, including the right to change the name by which it has heretofore been known and he has about decided to call the house Palmer Theatre" from the beginning of his management.

EXCITED ITALIANS.
Societies Up i'm Arms Against the Pauper
 Immigration Bill.


 NEW YORK, July 23.-Al the Italian soeides, civic and military, of New York, Boston and Philadelphia, are greatly stirred up over the Pauper Immigration bill brought forward by Congressman Ford of Michigan, land are has, tily getting together committee to meet the Congressional Investigating Committee that is expected in this city on Wednesday next.
 They claim that both press and public are greatly mistaken in supposing the padrone system to be in vogue in this country now and that immigrants are brought over here under contract. The Philadelphia contingent issued a circular in that city few days ago calling upon all its members to attend a mass meet ing to-day and prepare for war.
 They claim that the American press has un- dertaken a war against them and is influence ing the American Government against them, and want all Italians of whatever political opinions to unite at this supreme moment and take measures for protection.
 Felice Tocci, banker and editor of L'Eco d Italia, read with a number of his countrymen, the circnlar yesterday and said that its fiery tone was due solely to the fact that the com possers of it were not able to express their ideas clearly English. He said that number of Italians who are not members of the colony and are inimical to it have been spreading stories about the padrone and contract sys- tems being stiuln force here and that num- Der Of spectators 1n Italy persuade hundreds of their people to immigrate solely for the $3 or $4 commission they receive on each steam ship ticket sold.
 These false brethren, Mir. Tocoi says, are the people against whom the societies mean war. not the Americans. He also says that it is absurd to believe that the padrones still ex- ist in this country. Every village in Southern Italy has one or more representatives here and the people thoroughly understand from he letters they receive from their friends and relatives here that in America they are per- fectly free and under no mans control. The 30 900 Italians who landed in New York during the last three months hcve, according to MT. Tocci, all been provided for most of them going West to work on the railroads, and it would be hard to find gang of 100 Italian laborers in the city now. The New York members of the general committee will be chosen at the mass meeting to be held there tomorrow night at some hall not yet decided upon. At a meeting held last Tuesday night the delegates of the 60 New York Italian societies decided to abolish the emigration society managed by private parties, and ordered that 1 the benevolent society supported by the Ital- ian colony at large also act as an emigration society, charging no fees for services rendered | to the emigrants.

ARKANSAS RACE TROUBLES
Latter Drove the Negroes Out Instead.

Negroes Sent White Men Anonymous
 Warnings to Leave the County and the
 Latter Drove the Negroes Out Instead.
 MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 23.-The grand jury Of Crittenden county, Ark, has made a re- port regarding the punishment of eighteen negroes by an armed organization. Forty persons have been indicted. The grand jury found that anonymous notes had been sent to a number of white men by negroes, giv- ing the whites five days to leave the county. This resulted ill retaliatory measures, the whites meeting and escorting out of the county the negroes suspected of sending the threatening epistles. Among those who re- ceived orders to quit the county within five days were Col. NJ. F. Smith, the leading merchant of Marion; Sheriff w. F. Warner, of Crittenden county; J. Stevens, black smith; J. r. Berry, lawyer, and S O. Moshy, Il former magistrate of Marion
 The grand jury succeeded in tracing the anonymous threats to the office of tue county clerk, David Ferguson, one of the thirteen negroes banished. His office was opened and fragments of anonymous notes, which eyi- lcntly had not seemed to be satisfactory, were found on the floor. Experts pronounced tEe handwriting as that of J. w. Ramsey, a young South Carolina negro in the employ ot F.rsUSon as s clerk. The immediate mo- tive for sending the warnings was found in he fact that Ferguson and D. w. Lewis, the negro county judge, ha been indicted by & former grand jury for habitual drunkenness, the penalty for which was removal from office. The intention was to create reign of terror and break the force of the prosecu- tions Ferguson one of the Arkansas n!tcrnates to the Republican convention at Chicago. He was serving his third term as clerk of Crittenden county, an office worth $G,OO0 a year. The testimony before the grand jury was highly sensational

 CLIFTON, Ont, July 23.-Henry S. Ives, the New York broker is still on the Canadian side. He spends his time quietly, either in his rooms or on the upper piazzas of the hotel. George H. Stayner, his companion, Is even n ore reserved than Ives. MT. Wood ruff, the third member of the party, has dis appeared. Nobody has seen him for the last two days. Ives to-day wore a neat gray suit. with high-cut vest, blue necktie, white, Milan straw hat and patent leather gaiters. When asked by a reporter If he had anything to say, he replied:
 "No, think not. I will be back in New York soon, and can be seen then just as well as now"
 "Why did you leave New York7"
 Because felt disposed to do so and don't see why shouldn't have left"
 Some people say that you left there to es- cape arrest on indictments"
 T did not I left there because felt like 1t, and shall be back in New York to-mor- row."
 "There is 8 man named Pugh in New York, isn't there2" he asked sharply.
 "Yes"
 "Well. I think it very strange for him to go to New York to get extradition papers to take me to Cincinnati"
 "Why do you think that?'
 "Wouldn't you think 1t strange if Judge Maritime or District Attorney Fellows went to Missouri to get extradition papers for some one in New YorkP"
 II have been on the American side of the river plenty ef times during my stay here, but have always put up at the Clifton House. Mrs. Stayner and her daughter returned to New York, but MT. Stayner and will wait and see what action Gov. Hill takes on the motion made for extradition papers to take us to Ohio. If he denies the request, as I expect he will we shall return to New York Tuesday morning. If Gov. Hill grants it we will stay here & week and then go on to Cincinnati" MT. Ives denied that he went fishing at Montrose, or that hs had had a lady with him | any time during his stay. He said that he 1 did not care about the eindictments ,.and added What is $5 900 to me, anyway" This conversation, took place on tho right hand wing of the veranda within a stones throw almost of the Falls. Stayner was dressed l in neat black suit and white plug hat. He sat about fifty feet away from Ives and the | reporter while ihe conversation was going on and acted as carelessly as if he thought, "The world is mine." He will not say word.
