A Leading Iron Manufacturer Out for
Cleveland.
TERRE HAUTE, IND, August I'D.
W. Minshall in a letter to w. @. Ball,
editor of the Gazette, withdraws from the
Republican party. Mr.. Minshall was in
ternal revenue collector of this district
from 1878 to 1873, and is one Of the most
prominent and at the same time one OF
the wealthiest Republicans ofthis section
of the State. He has always been a Re
publican. He is a large iron manufac-
turer, being part owner Of the Terre
Haute Iron and Nail Works, the Green
castle Mill and the Calumet Mill, OF
st. Louis. Until recently he was in the
banking business with President A. K.
McKeen, of the Vandalia line, under the
firm name of McKeen & Minshall. Mr..
Minshall strongly endorses President
Cleveland's message and the Mills bill, and
denounces the proposition to repeal any
part of the internal revenue tax. Referring
to the declaration of the Chicago conven'
ton, he says it is extraordinary and ridic'
ulous," and continuing he says: III am
disgusted, and do not propose to lend my
aid to make such propositions effective.
am decided tariff reformer." In past years
Mr. Minshall has been heavy contributor
to Republican campaign funds.

Morton Pulls Out.

INDIANAPOLIS, August THE State
Federation of Trades and Labor Unions Of
Indiana held its fourth annual session in
this city to-day. Emil Levy, of Evansville,
was reelected President, and John p.
flanagan, of Lafayette, Secretary and
Treasurer. The delegates present took
action regarding the political issues
of the day and adopted series of resolu-
tions condemning the policy Of legislation
since 1851 with reference to the bonded
debt of the nation; opposing all laws which
tend to transfer the burdens of excessive
taxation to the consumers and laboring
classes, and declaring they "cannot sup
port the candidates of the Republican
party for President, because both Of them
are wanting in sympathy for the laboring
classes"
The resolutions charge Gen. Harrison
with commanding a company Of soldiers
during rhe strike of 1877, "To shoot labor
irg men down after having refused to at
tempt n settlement by peaceable means" |"
Morton is spoken of as q "Wall street
money shark and a sharer in the unholy
gains of many greedy corporations that
have cruelly opposed their employees"

A FRUITLESS TRIP.

The Investigators Miss Seeing An ImmI-
grant Ship.
NEW YORK, August THE Con-
gressional Committee investigating the
immigration question was somewhat slow
in getting to work this morning, and ii
was nearly 10 o'clock before the proceed
ings were oped with Mr.. Gilcolasze, Of the
Philadelphia Record, on the stand. Be-
fore his testimony was resumed, MIR.
Ford stated that the committee would
adjourn temporarily to go down the bay
to board the Italian steamer Indian. The
committee and members of the press then
started for the barge Office to take the
revenue cutter to quarantine to meet the
ship.
The committee was doomed to disap-
pointment, however, for when the steamer
was boarded at Quarantine, it was found
she carried only four steerage passen-
gers, all Austrians, instead of the
four hundred or so Italians rs the
committee expected. This, coupled with
the fact that the Alexandria, which ar,
rived last Sunday, had only one italian
steerage passenger, is consideren significant
by the committee.

BISMARCK'S ESTIMATE

OF Sheridan's Quick Eye-A Tribute From
the Iron Prince.
WASHINGTON, August THE follow
ing anecdote is told here to.dy:
Gen. Grant, during his tour around tht
world, had quite lengthy interview witt
Prince Bismarck in Berlin.
One of the Princes first questions wa
about Gen. Sheridan.
'The General and :" said the Prince,
''were fellow-campaigners in France, and
have become great friends"
Gen. Grant said that he had had Letters
from Sheridan recently, and he was quite
we'll.
SHERIDAN" said the Prince, Seemed to
be a man of great ability"
EYES," answered Gen. Grant, 81 regard
Sheridan as not only one of the greatest
soldiers of our war, but one of the greatest
soldiers of the world-a man who is fit for
the highest commands. No better general
ever lived than Sheridan"
81 observed" said the Prince, "that he
had wonderfully quick eye. On one oc
casion, remember, the Emperor and his
staff took up position to observe battle.
The Emperor himself was never near
enough to the front-was always impa-
tient 10 be as near the fighting as possible.
WELL said Sheridan to me, as we rode
along, we shall never stay here; the
enemy will in a short time make this
80 untenable that we all shall be leaving
in hurry. Then while the men are ad-
vancing they will see us retreatiDg' Sure
enough, in an hour or 80 the cannon-shot
began to plunge this way and that way,
and we saw we must leave. 1t was diff
cult to move the Emperor, however, but
we all had to go, and," said the Prince,
with hearty laugh, 1--WE went rapidly.
Sheridan had seen it from the beginning.
/ wish had 30 quick an eye"

The Officer Who Succeeds to the Command
of the army.
Msior General John McAllister Scho-
field, who succeeds to the command of the
army, was born in Chsutauqua county,

versity, st. Louis Soon after the break
ing out of the war Schofeld was commits
stoned Major of Missouri Volunteers, and
the following November, 1862, he was made
q Major General Of volunteers. He bore
q creditable part In the principal engage
ments of the Atlanta campaign, and after
the capture of Atlanta, September /, 1854,
was placed under General Thomas in COM
mand Of the forces which opposed the
movement Of General Hood toward Nash
Vile. General Schotield commanded the
battle of Franklin, perhaps the fercest and
bloodiest fight OF the war, and his services
were so distinguished that he was reward
ed with q Brigsdisr- Generals commission
in the regular army, and subsequently
made Msjor-General by brevet. He COM
manded corps in the engagement before
Nashville, December 18th and 18th, and in
the pursuit of the remnant of Hoods army.

man. During the political complications
between President johnson and Congress,

assigned 10 the command of the Depart
meut Of the Missouri and in 1870 was pul

of General Sheridan.
WASHINGTON, August The general
order announcing to the army the death OF
General Sheridan was issued at the War
Department this afternoon.
After referring at length to the deceased
soldiers gsllantry, military skill and
courage and reciting his many brilliant
victories, the order concluded as follows:
'These achievements placed him in the
front rank of the great and successful
soldiers of his time and are recognized
and acknowledged at home and abroad.
To the army his loss is personal and ire
parable, but the work that he did and the
associations that cluster about his name
will be grateful memory to it's older,
and an inspiration to its younger officers. "
The flag will be placed at halfstaffa at all
military posts and stations, seventeen
minute guns will be fired on the day
after the receipt of this order, and the
usual badges of mourning will be worn
for thirty days.

PEPPER TALKS.
His Explanation of the Sudden Death OF
General Sheridan.


General Sheridan.
BAR HARBoR, Me-, August 7.-Dr.
William Pepper, of Philadelphia, was
much surprised when informed of General
Sberidan's sudden death, as when he Wis
tied him on Saturday he was improving
rapidly and felt most slnguine and conf
dent Of his own recovery.
The doctor gave the following "fficial
opinion of the case and it treatment: AT
the time of the early attacks the heart
failure was so intense that the wall of the
heart contracted very imperfectly, and the
cavities became rapidly and greatly dilat-
ed. This was much increased by the
mechanical obstruction due to the organic
disease of the valves of the heart, which
had existed for many months.
The most alarming spell was connected
with the development of an extensive in
fraction of the lower lobe Of the right lung,
followed by the development of aneurisms
around il. For weeks this was constant
source of anxiety, but gradually it cleared
way.
On Sunday evening, at time when all
the Generals symptoms were more encour-
aging than at any previous period, the
above occurred with such severity as to
make all efforts to sustain the heart and
lungs unavailing.

Sherman In the Senate.

WASHINGTON, August THE Senate
resumed consideration of the fisheries
treaty and was addressed by Mr.. Sherman
in opposition to it's ratification. He did
not regard the treaty as party question,
nor as a sectional question. 1t affected
the fishermen on the Southern coast, on
the Gulf of Mexico and on the Atlantic
ocean just as much as the fishermen OF
New England. Neither was il an Irish
question, nor was the opposition to it,
Fishing for Irish votes" There was
nothing more unfounded than such a
charge. He believed that there was q
general sympathy with the people Of Ire
land, not only in the Senate chamber, but
among all the people of the United States.
There was q general sympathy with the
Irish people in their struggle for home
rule.
Mr.. Sherman then considered the pro-
visions of the treaty in detail and argued
against their acceptance by the Senate.

CONNELLsvILLE, Pa, August ii. A.
Rankin, Master Workman Of District No.
IL, Knights of Labor, comprising the Con-
nellsvile and Latrobe coke regions, out
lined to correspondent to-day why he is
supporter of Cleveland. He said:
81 was Republican until the Hayes
campaign in 1876. 1 then became q
Green nbacker and since then have really
had no politics, but / most assuredly in
tend to support Cleveland. Prior TO 1872
was a radical protectionist, believing
fully that the panics Of 1917, 1887, and
1856 were caused directly by reduction
of a tariff on imported goods. / have
learned differently, however, and am now
radically in favor Of q reduction Of all
duties. The principle Of protection is
wrong. 1t is neither right nor Just that
one section or all Of q country should be
taxed in order to foster the interests OF an
other section. We need protection no
longer. When our government was young
interests were weak and needed protection.
But under the existing prosperous condi-
ton of trade the taxes OF the war period or
previous have no application.
