THE TORY-UNIONIST SPLIT.
A Fresh Quarrel Breaks Out In Biz.
mingham.

Special to the New York Tribune.
LONDON, April 1s.-It was not peace at Bir-
mingham; it was only truce; and hostiIities be-
tween the tories and the iberal-unionists have
broken out afresh. The tory association held a
meeting yesterday, and passed a resolution
that pending satisfactory explanation Of the
breach of faith by those who were parties
to the compact for the candidature of Lord
Randolph Churchill, it is impossible for
this association to cooperate with
the local liberal-unionst party" That shot
was aimed straight at man named Chamber
lain, and the resolution was carried all but
unanimously after speeches all smelling of gun
powder. Mr. Chamberlain's name was handled
freely and Kissed freely. Lord Salisbury was
not Kissed, but his opposition to Lord Randolph
Churchill was vehemently censured
All this means mischief far outside Birmine-
ham. 1t is a quarrel which must be patched
up somehow, or smothered. or smoothed over.
and it will take all Mr.. Balfour's diplomacy TO
do any OF these things. If none Of them be
done, the alliance between the tories and the
liberal-unionists all over the country is in
greater peril than ever.
Mr.. Chamberlain, too, is in some peril His
strength in Birmingham, outside his own di-
vision, depends mainly on tory support.
So does his prestige in the country. Till
he has explained his conduct to Lord
Randolph Churchill he will get no
tory support, no federation even. He must APP
pear on the platform next week, and Lord Hart
ington must appear. There is to be great lib
eral-unionist conference at Highbury, Nh. Cham
berlain's home. 1t will be crowded with dukes
and duchessesjand other unionistsof high degree.
Business Of importance is to be transacted, and
transacted in public, misses or no Misses. Alto
gether, the situation 10 not only interesting,
but perhaps even critical

In the numerical order of the contemplated inn

evidently to adhere to their expressed inten-
lions, which naturally means to commence
with street, the first street named, then
Maryland avenue, afterward Pennsylvania

amount would reach, bringing it down pro-
badly to the last four streets alluded to, which
would then be left over for next year to be

juggling manipulation was $780, compared
with deduction of S51, 600 from the amount
recommended originally to Congress by the
Commissioners themselves for East Washing

AGAINST THE INSURANCE PLAN
Protest Of Baltimore and Ohio EN-
ployes in Chicago.

CHICAGO, April 19.-About two hundred en-
ployes of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad held
meeting in South Chicago last evening to fur
Their protest against the insurance association
scheme. Several vigorous speeches were made
against it. Superintendent Britton also spoke.
He said that no man would be forced to join
the association and no removals would be made
for refusal to do So
Supt Britton's speech was in answer to a
speech by John ID. Anglim, head timekeeper of
the road at South Chicago, who presided and
declared that he had carefully looked into
the situation and had arrived at the conclu-
sion that the men in joining the
association were not benefited according to
the cost. He was very much afraid that the
representatives of the company were not sim
cere in their declaration that no man was COM
PEELED to join the association. He believed
that those who were bold enough to refuse to
join would be spotted and sooner or later in
a quiet manner would be forced to leave the
company's service.

THE OHIO DELEGATION
is in somewhat confused condition. Shortly
after Inauguration, when the Congressman
from that state wanted the delegation to come
together and agree about Offices, Senator Sher-
man hung back.
Then il was every man for himself little
later and the Senator started out on quiet little
hunt on his own account and kept il up for
some time before the other Ohioan dicovered
1t. Nobody said anything until the Senator
got political black eye by the failure of Par
sons to secure the controllership of the cur
rency and the Senator spoke. The result was
q sadder joining together of forces and an
united call upon the President. For few hours
| all was apparently well, and then it was discov-
| cred that the Senator wanted the delegation to
| support his candidates to the neglect Of their
own, many OF whom were after the same places
as the Senator had picked out for his adherents.
| Then
THERE WAS TROUBLE.
just about the same time it was found
that the Senator had dipped into all
the congressional districts and had cap.
tured a number of prizes which belonged
to the Congressman; he had secured the three
collectors Of internal revenue and had promises
that covered number of other good places
| Then there was revolt and the
| combination was broken. This morning Rep
resentative Mckinley told STAR reporter that
| the state Of Ohio was not asking for any
thing. he did not say that Senator Sherman
| was not asking, nor that he or Butterworth
or 0rosvsnor or Thompson were not asking foz
