Gus Future
Copyright, 1883, by Re California Associated Pres.l
New YORK, May 30th.-At the Academy
of Music this evening, Colonel Ingersoll
delivered brilliant Memorial address. At
ter eloquently referring to the late war, its
causes, and the parts played by those whose
memory was celebrated to-day, he said
" All that could be done by force was done;
all that could be accomplished by the
adoption of constitutions was done; the
rest is left to education and the illimitable
influences of intellectual cultivation of the
heart and imagination. The past is now
hideous dream. The present is filled with
pride, gratitude and hope"
After paying most touching tribute to
the fallen heroes, he concluded by saying:
i have one sentiment for the soldiers,
living or dead-cheers for the living and
tears for the dead A vision of the future
rises and see our country filled with happy
homes, with firesides of content, the fore
most land of all the earth. / see the world
without slave-man at last is free Ma
ture's forces have, by sciences, been en-
slaved-lightning and light, wind and
wave, frost and fame, and all the secret,
subtle powers of the earth and air are tire
less workers for the human race. l see a
race without disease of flesh or brain
shapely and fair, with married harmony of
form and function. As look life length
ems, joy deepens, love canopies the earth,
and over all is spread the dome that shines
eternal-the star of human hope"

BLAINE'S FRIEND.
Clarkson Says the Nominee viii Be q
Blaine Man.

New YORK, May 30th.-J. s. Clarkson of
Iowa, a member of the Republican National
Committee, who has supported Blaine in
three National Conventions, said to-day
that the letter from Mr. Blaine published
this morning simp-y emphasizes, for the
benefit of the men who have become candi-
dates on the faith or candor of his previous
letter, that he meant what he said, and is
out of the contest
But" added Mr. Clarkson, Blaine is
still the party's leader. The great mass of
the party and an overwhelming majority
of the National Convention are not only
friendly to the policies and ideas in public
affairs that he advocates, but are as friendly
TO him, and 1t is safe to say that the nomi-
nee will be one friendly to him, and not
bis ene1ny-a man who was loyal in 1854,
ard sound on the protection, the great is
sue on which this campaign is to be
fought"
Clarkson added that he thought in the
new situation the drift of the party to be
toward Senator Allison, whose fitness and
ability for the Presidency, he said, are ad-
| mitted. eve believe Allison to be the
strongest candidate now, yet we have the
spirit of party interest controlling US, and
If stronger man can be found at Chicago
we will be for him. The thing this year
is party success"

How Aliens Are FIoclsing to the Land of
the Free.

iccppigtt 1855, by the California associated Press
New YORK, May 30th.-A brief review of
the statistics of immigration shows 9,000,-
GOO aliens have landed at this port since
1S47, and of these 5000 600 have landed
here since 1880. This year there have al
ready been landed 10000 and over 135, 900
have come in since April 1st. The num-
Der landed ST Castle Garden this month
will be as great as the total number in the
year 1873, and much larger than that of
either of the years 1866 or 1867. During
week before last there were landed thirty
ships, bringing %, $50 steersge immigrants.
1t is probable this will be the greatest year
on record for Immigration.

| and after reorganizing took recess, anC

ness Tss on the part of delegate Turner o
PennSy tvanla, that a Telegram be sent the

A few moments later a similar motion
was brought into prominence by Rev
Walter t. Kills, who asked permission to
read it, THAI having been asked of him
After tuInultous debate, in which several
delegates were constantly on tie floor, the
mover of the resolution was given leave to
withdraw it.
At this moAent little son Of the late
John B. Finch was brought up On the plat
form amid Loud cheering. Chairman
Dickie of the National Committee pre-
sented the little fellow a gold medal on be-
half Of the Prohibition party.
Further time vas taken up with singing,
and then another cause of slightly acrimo-
NOUS discussion appeared in the shape of a
motion that eX-sOldiers of the Union and
Confederate arnies stand up and be
counted. The motion was finally tabled.
A memorial from the National w. G.
T. U. was then read, asking the Convention
to place in its platform plank demanding
that the Bible be placed in the public
schools that personalities be avoided in
the coming campaign that sectionalism be
completely buried, and that, lastly, the
position of the party in 1884 on the woman
suffrage question be reaffirmed Referred
TO the Committee on Resolutions.
A resolution was then offered by Judge
Gore, of New York, reaffirming the woman
suffrage plank of 1854, with the proyiso
that that issue be not made test of party
fealty. Referred.
Immediately following the credential re-
port came that of the Committee on Per-

Second Assistant Secretary, Mrs. NJ. Nj.

The action of the committee was unani-
mously concurred in.
Governor st. John was introduced by
temporary Chairman Delano in few fe-
Gcitous words, and responded happily.
He spoke encouragingly of the outlook
The old parties, he said, were giving way,
and our leaders, fearing the fall of the Re-

some length.

A Photograph of the Mills Bill After the


caucus.
WASHINGTON, May 30th.-The Democratic
members of the Ways and Means Commit
tee are not entire satisfied with some of the
changes in the tariff bill by the recent eau
Gus, but that will not keep them from vot-
ing for them in order to secure the passage
of the bill.
The aggregate of duties collected last
year on articles which have been taken
from the free list of the bill and restored to
the dutiable list is about 100000, which
is only about . per cent. of the reduction
proposed to be made by the free list. More
over, several articles, including marble,
have been restored at reduced rates.
The largest items which have been taken
from the free list and restored to the duti-
able list are plums and prunes, paying last
year duty of S7O,Soo So; paintings and
statuary, $5,777 IL; hatters' furs, $274,-
602 OIL marble, 81, 100000; gelatine and
preparations, S65. 500; kaoline and pottery,
S61, 900. Jute grain bags have been trans
ferred from the dutiable to the free list,
making a new reduction OF S234,00O.
The total reductions proposed in the orig
inal bill by the free list were so. .414, ,29l.
They will remain at more than $50 100000
after all the changes that have been made.
