Chicago Opera House.

The McCaull Opera Company is
now playing their annual engagement
at the Chicago Opera House to the
usual enormous business. McCaull's
Company is and has been for years
recognized as the strongest organiza.
ton in this country Not only on score
of comedians but vocally the quality
of the company has always been far
in advance of any other in this coun-
try. The present opera is "The
Lady or the Tiger" piece built by
Sidney Resented out of the slender
sketch by Frank Stockton. In the
hands of Mr.. Resented great deal
of humor is extracted from the plot,
and the music is all of the livliest
and most catching character. The
chorus is one of the great features
of the McCaull Company. 1t num-
bers over fifty voices and is powerful
and most admirably trained. The
company comprise, Laura Moore,
De Wolf Hopper, Marion Manola,
Eugene Ondin, Laura Joyce Bell,
Digby Bell, Annie Myers, Chas. w.

THE REPUBLICAN POLICY.
BELIEVED 1T WILL BE TO
REDUCE THE TARIFF.
Political Complexion of the Next Con-
gress-Figures From the Close States
and Districts.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The future pol
icy of the Republicans, now that they have
secured control of all branches of the
national government, is the all-absorbing
question here. It is assumed that the Re
publcans will pass tariff bill in pursuance
of pledges made during the campaign. It
is said that General Harrison sympathized
with Senator Allison in his efforts to secure
some action by the Senate at the last SEES
sion and it is no doubt true that the large
Republican majorities in the Northwest,
where the tariff detection was greatest in
the Republican party, are due to the
demonstration made under Mr. Allison's
leadership. The national committee, or
rather Senator Quay, was opposed to this
measure and thought that the Republican
Senate had better let the tariff alone, but
Allison and other Senators from the North
west know that the Republican party could
not be successful without doing something
toward a reduction of the revenue
President Cleveland and Secretary Fair
child will both urge upon Congress again
at the approaching session the necessity
Of reduced taxation and will advise the
Democrats of the House to make conces-
sions to the Senate in order to secure the
passage of bill Senator Sherman and
other leaders Of the Republican party COM
mend the pending bill as the best tariff
legislation ever proposed, and if they are
sincere in this opinion they cannot be JUST
fed in opposing or delaying its passage
There is, however, all irreconcilable ele-
ment in the party, headed by Judge Kelley
and Mr.. Mckinley of Ohio, who will oppose
any legislation whatever, and they may de-
feat the purpose of the Senators who are
acting under Allsons leadership
Another measure which will certainly be
passed is that which provides for the fund
ing the Pacific railroad Indebtedness, and
the bill permitting National banks to issue
circulating notes to the par Of the bends

DENVER, Col, Nov. 12.-Ex-Judge w.
W. Rucker, Democrat well-known
throughout the State, has returned to Dem
yer after visit of several weeks in the
East. While in Washington before election
day he called at the White House to find
out, if possible, how Mr. Cleveland regarded
his chances. Judge Rucker represents Mr..
Cleveland as having said: Gin the existing
situation of affairs in New York consider
it impossible for me to be reelected Mayor
Hewitt is running, I think, to make my
reelection impossible. He does not like
comfort that I have had for
two weeks was yesterday when
ex-Gov. Curtin assured me that from his
personal acquaintance with the man, Sena-
tor Quay was not equal to the contract he
had undertaken when he assured the Re-
publican party of success. [ am strongly
of the opinion that we will lose
New York through the trading of Hewitt,
Grant, and Gov. Hill. also concede Con-
necticut to the Republicans, while Indiana
IL too close for calculation. Of course, New
Jersey will prove Democratic. Personally
[ do not care about the result, but would
regret very much to see the Democratic
party sustain a defeat at this time"
Judge Rucker says there were in attend
ance with him at the interview with the
President Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky,
and Secretary of War Endicott Judge
Rucler says he left the President in COM
pany with Senator Blackburn, and Black
burn said he was glad Cleveland was badly
frightened as he would do something to save
New York State.

WHEELING, W. Va, Nov. 10.-The Con-
gressional situation in West Virginia is
still very much mixed In no district will
the majority on either side be over 100.
Atkinson s(Rep.) is elected in the First by
80; Smith Rep in the Third by 100. The
Second and Fourth are very close, and no
man can tell how they have gone
WHEELING, W. Va, Nov l0.-Forty
counties polling 115, 460 votes for the Presi-
dent in 1884 show a net Republican gain of
4,O46. The remaining fourteen counties,
polling 49, $50 votes in 1884 will, at the
same ratio of gains, give the Republicans 6
gain of 1885, making total net gain in
the State of 4, 846, which would give tbs
State to the Republicans by 624 majority

CHICAGO, Nov. 12.-There is a good deal

of Chicago have published the returns
from Cook county, showing that Palmer
has over 1850 plurality in this county,
Official returns from half the counties in the
State have been received. From these it
appears that Mr.. Fifer's plurality will
reach $4,000, but there are many discrep-

sections of the State, the rectifcaton Of
which may change the result. 1t is claimed
at Springfield, from returns already in the

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O.-If D. S. Alex

He weighs good many more pounds than

OF that Albany regency air of mystery about
him than the Colonel has He was the last

the change of administration, and left before
Secretary Manning was ready to lose him.
The probability is that Secretary Manning
intended to keep him on account OF the
very cordial way in which Secretary Nc
