Gen. Clark Talks Abont Republican
Congressional Claims.
WHICH GETS THE HoUSE9
1t Is Said That III II Goes with the Next
Administration, New states wit 40
Admitted. vhlci, WIN Add Consid-
crabIe Republican strength.

NEW YORK, Nov IA dispatch from
Washington 10 The Post says:
Seen. Clark, tho clerk of the present house,
says that he now believes that il win he Inn
possible for the Democrats 10 save enough
from the wreck in the doubtful districts TO
give them even the coveted one majority in
the house. Gen. Clark has a personal inter-
est II the matter, for, II the Democrats should
crganiza the house, he would be a cam
didate for reelection as clerk, and might
reasonably hope for success There are some
other Democrats who, on general party prin-
ciples, would be glad TO have possession OF
the house, in order that, il nothing else
could be accomplished, they might endeavor
to interpose the objection of the Democratic
organization to the admission of new states.
which tho Democrats assume would be 70 add
to the Republican voting strength in tn,
house and in the senate, and aid TO continue
the Republicans in power. That the house
would be able to prevent the admission OF
some of the territories as states, even II the
Democrats should control that body by a
majority Of one or two, is by no means GER
tain. There are good many Democrats
who have not agreed with the faction
which controlled the organization of the
house that the territories should all be
excluded. On the contrary, there are
some Democrats who, aside from mere party
reasons, have advocated admission. There
viii be sono Democratic congressman from
states adjacent TO the territories, who would
feel compelled TO vote for tho admission Of
some Of the territories
"But the Republicans will probably secure
the organization OF the house by a small ma
jority of from five to seven. The returns
thus far received do not warrant the con-
clusion that, on the face of the returns the
Republican majority will be greater than
that. In no probable event viii the roll OF
the next house, rs IL viii be made up by the
clerk of the p escnt house, contain the
fanciful majoriiies for the Republicans
which We're claimed from Washington
the night of the election. The figures by
which Edward Mcpherson mad9 the claim
that there would be a Republican majority
of twenty, and perhaps more, for the Repub-
lcans in the house Of the Fifty-first congress,
although assumed TO be hased upon returns
from the districts, were, it is now stated,
only In few instances based upon such re-
turns They were, ON the contrary,
based upon the estimates which were
made by local committeeman before the cleo
tion. They were In short the result Of an
average Of the local guesses They were es-
Inmates and not returns. And Mr.. McPher-
son has been rather sharply criticised by Re-
publican leaders here for these exuberant
claims, which it has been found necessary to
moderate SO much that it has not been for
the last two days clear that the Republicans
would be given the majority on the face of
the certificates that would be forwarded to
the clerk of the house,

Losers TryIng to Avoid payment.

ST. Louis, Nov. 1.-THE election betting
in this city is not going to be easily settled.
Two rooms here hold 100000, and big per
centage of this amount was put up on New
York state Some fine points have been
raised by the losers, and the proprietors Of
the rooms have been served with notice not
to pay over thes money. The tickets are
marked New York Dem. and New York
Rep Now the Democrats claim that as the
head OF the ticket is represented by the two
electors at large, and as the indications are
that the two Democratic electors at large are
elected they are entitled to draw. Again
they say that Hill carried the state by II, 900
over Harrison, and that therefore the state
went Democratic on the popular vote. The
Republicans say that bet made means the
head of the ticket unless some other candi-
date is specified, and that as majority Of
the electors viii vote for Harrison and Nor
ton the money should 60 the same way.

will close at the end of two weeks.
The convention was called to order by
General Master Workman Powderly, who
seems to be In excellent health and spirits.
The report of the credential committee is
now being submitted, and until that is ended
and the various committees on law, finances
and grievances are appointed no important
business will be reached.
1t seems to be the unanimous opinion of
those here that there win be a general revi-
sion of the constitution of the order, and
there seems to be demand for the reduction
of running expenses, which it is proposed to
meet in several ways, and by consolidating
tho offices of general secretary and general
treasurer, and also by reducing the salaries
of all the officers of the executive board
The delegates who constitute the present
assembly are all intelligent men, with right
and practical purposes. Every year is the
object OF the order more clearly defined. Its
tendency was first thought to lean towards
violent social revolution, and it had public
sentiment against it, The prevailing opinion
was to some extent justified by the known
character of some of its assemblies, but by
the action of recent general assemblies and
the stand taken by Mr.. Powderly against ex-
treme radical measures the order has not
only eradicated the prejudice of public senti
ment, but has secured its approval as an or
ganization created for the education and ele-
vation of labor.
The general secretary's report will show
that the order has SO0,O 900 members in good
standing
General Master Workman Powderiy sail
to reporter that he saw no reason for the
storms ptedicted by many papers. There
was no cause for any serious trouble and he
anticipated an unusually quiet session.
Thomas B. Barry, the expelled member Of
the order, has also arrived in the city. On
the same train was George Schilling, of Chi
cago, who is the recognized leader of the
Anarchist faction. The Chicago delegation
is sadly diminished. At the last general
assembly there were dozen from Chicago,
and they formed the nucleus around which
the opposition gathered The opposition has
virtually lost this strong delegation this time.
In the event of Mr.. Powderly's obstinate
refusal to continue his present duties the con-
yention viii be in the dark. There are no
candidates for the place, and no available
and desirable man is knoYn. The delegates
came here determined to have no such emer-
gency to meet. They viii very probably
elect Powderly by a very large majority.

JEFFERSON CRY, Mo-, Nov. A. Tho
state supreme court has confirmed the sem
tence Of death passed upon William Walker,
one of the chiefs of the Christian county
band of Bald Knobbcrs, which ia March,
1887, murdered Charles Green and James
Eder, near Chadwick, in that county. Wal
ker and three other members OF the outlaw
gang were convicted of the murder and APP
pealed the case to this court. There is no
doubt that all three cases viii be determined
the same way, as they were all convicted on
the same evidence. The court fixed the day
of execution for Friday, Dec %. 1888.

New YoRK, Nov 1.-THE Herald devotes
an entire page to the expression of opinion of
prominent men upon the question of extend
ing the term of office of the president of the
United States to seven or eight years 1t is
claimed that the shrinkage in the internal
commerce and business of the country dur
ing the past four months traceable to the ap-
prehension, excitement and other conditions
dependent upon the presidential campaign
amount to not less than $500, 100000, and
The Herald argues that this and other rea-
sons advanced justifies the extension OF the
term of the presidential Office. Among others
quoted as favoring an extension are Chaun-
cey NJ Depew and Sydney Dillon, both Of
whom think six years as about the proper
length of time for which president should
be elected

the offices of Funch, Edge & Co, ihs New
York agents of the Nederland American
Navigation Steamship company, OF Amster-
DAM have been crowded with inquirers as to
the whereabouts of the steamship Schicdam.
Every one is asking where she is and tho
agents of the line are endeavoring TO pacify
them by telling them that the high seas and
the stormy weather have retarded her. This,
however, does not seem to have the desired
effect and consequently long and anxious
faces are the order Of the day.
And well may they be The Schiedam left
Amsterdam for this city on Wednesday, Oct.
"a, since which time not one word has been
received that would tend to show her where
abouts. She has therefore been out for
twenty days
The Schieiam, according to all mariners
opinions was due here on wednesday last.
At that time she had been out fourteen days.
Even that is great time for an ocean steam
ship. All the incoming steamships report
heavy seas and contrary winds.
The manager of tho freight department OF
the Nederland-American Steamship com
pany says:
Ihere Is no call Tor any apprehension loI
the safety of the Shiedam.. While she is a
small steamship, she is q very stanch craft,
and is perfectly safe in every kind of weather
The Schiedam has been through some very

voyages, but she has always come out right

If a farmer has plenty of patience, and
is willing to give close attention to details
in the care of stock. he can make more
money for food consumed from sheep than
from any other stock. But not one farmer
i'll ten will care to give them the attention
they require at certain seasons of the year
so the few who do take good care of flock
will find good market for mutton, and a
demand fur wool at some price, usually
enough to pay for wintering the flock \
farm which is rolling in its surface seems
perfectly adapted to sheep raising. Such
land needs grass on the hill tops TO keep it
from washing, and sheep need hill tops and
sweet, short grass They like lie down ON
"A hillside in the spring. where the sun
makes the ground dry and warm, and where
they are protected from the cold sweep of
the wind.
The greatest profit from sheep is not in
mutton or wool, but in the enhanced fer
Utility of the farm ON which they ara kept.
No other stock can compare with sheep in
this direction. This increased value comes
from two causes; the large quantity of sol
id and liquid manure deposited on all the
land, and particularly on the highest and
poorest points in the pasture. The manure.
being fine and well scattered. is pressed
about the roots Of the grass, where it gives
the greatest possible benefit. Another
source whereby the grasses are encouraged
is the destruction of bushes and many
kinds OF weeds which grow where cattle
and horses only are pastured. Hazel brush
fares very badly in the sheep pasture, and
wild roses, rag weed, hurdocks, and other
weeds are selected first, and then the sheep
look for grass. In this way sheep pasture
becomes like beautiful lawn, and every
year grows better but if the farmer sees
millions i'll sheep and over-stocks his
fields, then the grass goes with the bushes
and weeds. Then the sheep get poor, tum-
Die down one after another, their ambition
lessons as their flesh goes, and the unfortu-
nate owner, or imprudeut manager, votes
