THE FISHERY TREATY.
SENATOR 6RAY'S STRONG ARGUMENT IN
FAVOR OF IT.


WASHINGTON, June 11.-On motion Of
Mr.. Sherman the Senate proceeded to the
consideration of the fisheries treaty in open
executive session, and was addressed by
Mr.. Gray in support Of its ratification. II
he knew himself, no partisan considera-
tiOns could influence his judgment as to
the merits Of the treaty. The Senate was
bound to presume that this treaty was the
outcome OF an honest endesyor and an
earnest and patriotic desire on the
part of the executive to make q salts
factory and advantageous settlement of the
vexed question to which it related, and
that the President was correct until the
contrary appeared), when he saidthat ii
had been made on q basis honorable to
both parties.
God help the country and the people
he said if those into whose hands they
placed power should refuse to look at both
sides and at all sides of in questions
which involved the peace and honor and
welfare of the nation. Some slurs be
said had been ungenerously cast by the
Senator from Maine (Mr. Frye) to.
wards the Secretary OF State. but there
had never come from the State Department,
anything like the surrender of American
rights in the treaty Of 1871 under Presi'
dent Grants administration.

and was open to objection, and change

By the way, there was some commen

"Another objection made to the presen

WHAT'L CHAUNCEY DO
WILL THE POPULAR NEW YORKER kNrBR
THB PRESIDENTIAL LISTS
AGAINST John Sherman, Allison, Algr and tht
Rsst?-A Report that BE is Not Candidate
2mpha6caIy Denied BY DspsW
Himself

CT IoU1s June 1.-THE GlObe-Democrot
nublishes the following this morning:
Mr.. Depew will not be candidate
This exceedingly important declaration is
ouoted from q private letter just received
from New York. The letter is addressed
To a gentleman who is one of the delegates
at large from Western State, and who
will he a prominent figure in the conven-
tion.
The announcement of Mr.. Depew's con-
c,usion ia from a gentleman in his conf
dence, and is regarded by the recipient fs
entirely authoritative. The letter was
shoWn to the correspondent OF the Glo6e-
Democrat yesterday, and this is the hrst
publica,ion of it's contents. The explana-
tion of Mr.. Depsw's position is this:
He has satisfied himself fully by careful l
inquiry that he Is not the most available
man for the party to nominate. de be-
lisyes that he could carry New York, but
he believes that his record as railroad
president aud corporation lawyer might
coat some Northwestern electoral votes.
Having satisfied himself on this score, ne
counts himself out of the list.
The letter which contains this very in
teresting bit of news also brings the lnfOI-
nation that there is likelihood OF the Nsw
York delegation actirg together lu tne
support of any one candidate Assurances
had been gwen Mr.. Depew Of nearly the
entire vote of the New York delegation,
but now that he will not be before the
convention, all the present Indications are
AGAINST concentration on any other man
II ia believed that Sherman will get q
dozen votes out of New York that Gresham
will pet fully as,msny, and that the re-
maipder will be distributed imparnally.
Hiscock may get few complimentary
votes on the first ballot from New IorS
delegates, but it is certain that he will moi
get the full vote of the Stateo anything like
It. The bes5 information that be got
points to general scattering OF the Ne"
York vote. Most of the delegates from
that State were men entirely new in Ma
tiopal Conventions. Indeed only Is of the
II were in the delegation four years ago
| Six of the thirteen were ont and ou'
Arthur men, and six were just as loud fol
Blaine. The uplucky thirteen cast tht
solitary vote which was given to Bob Lin
coin in 1884
1t seems to be pretty generally under
stood that Warner Miller, who is one o
the New York delegsHs at large, will b
agreed upon by the National COMMITTEES
for temporary Chairman of the Committee

Of this city, Mrs. Ulrich, to be used in
some incsntation or consultation of the old
lady's horoscope, and then decamped,
leaving her child as evidence Of good faith
Telegrams from Chicago, ILL.,, Richmond,
Va, and other points describing lost chill
dren have also poured in, but none OF
them answer the description of the child
now in custody of the officials. The little
one is certainly a stolen child. She says
that Druella, as she called herself was
mot her mamma and that she chad an
other mamma somewhere" but it is too
young to give any definite clew of her peo-
pie. The child is about elk years of age,
very dark; in fact, bears close resem'
blance to a Creole child. Her hair, eyes
and eyebrows are dark. She is n good
locking little child and is well dressed.

Evening.

At the Fourth Street NJ. Z. Church Last
Evening.
The lecture at Fourth street last ever
ing by Judge Cranmer was of most in.
structive and delightful character. Itwas
upon the early history Of Wheeling, and
the Judges descriptions were given in a
vivid and humorous form, which greatly
interested the audience. Besides being in
terestiDg, the discourse was very valuable.
The fsets set forth in it have cost
much labor in their collection and
arrangement, and ought by all means to be
put into q permanent form for preserva-
ton. Judge Cramner deserves the thanks
of the large audience, who listened with
intense interest for nearly two hours to his
details of early times and parsons in
Wheeling.
A resolution was adopted by the meet
ing pettioning Congress to appropriate
money for the erection Of monument
commemorative of the last siege of Fort
Henry, thing which certainly ought 70
be accomplished. This siege was the last
battle of the Revolutionary Wsr.
Before the lecture, the entertainment
was opened with an organ voluntary By

full anthem by the choir. Rev. Mr.. Bar
