His suggestions with reference to the

INDIANAPOLIS, January 1.-Indianapo-
lis people gave themselves up to social
festivities and amenities to-day to an ex-
tent not practiced here for many years.
They were favored with pleasant
weather. General Harrison passed
much Of the morning in his IL
brary, but managed to take his usual
walk. Senator Blair arrived to-day at
noon and called UPON General Harrison
this evening. He is here on lecturing
tour. An unusually large number OF
prominent ladies of the city threw open
their doors this afternoon. The most
notable receptions, however, were those
held in the afternoon at the residences OF
General Harrison, Hon. John @. New,
and at the New Denison Hotel at
night. The handsome parlors of
the Harrison mansion were decorated
with flowers and plants. Mrs. Harrison
was assisted by her daughter, Mrs. J. r.
Mckee. Mrs. James Bradshaw, Mrs.
Edward Mckee, Miss Lena Mckee, Miss
Newcomer and Miss Riley, of Harris
burg, Pa. General Harrison received
with the ladies, and Russell B.
Harrison participated for time in the
reception. The reception was through
out, as the notice stated, "entirely
informal. A goodly proportion of the
callers were workingmen, accompanied
by their wives. All the guests were in
vited to partake of little lunch. Mrs.
Mckee presided at the table in the din
ing-room, and, assisted by her cousin,
Mrs. Newcomer, refreshed the guests
with tiny cups of coffee, tea and
chocolate. General Lew Wallace,
Ex-Governor A. G. Porter and
other resident people of distinction
were among the callers. Also large
number Of all denominations. 1t is i'm
possible to state how many callers passed
through the Harrison house during the
six hours, but the stream was q constant
one and moderate estimate places the
number at nearly 1000.

THE ARBEITER BUND.
The Mayor of ChicngO is Rather
NOn.C Conn initial.

NOnsCOhm hlttAls
CHICAGO, January In view of the
decision rendered yesterday in the matter
OF the application of the Anarchists or
ganization known as the Arbeiter Bund,
in which Master in Chancery Winder
declined to recommend an injunction
restricting the police from interfering
with its gatherings, although suggesting
that one might notiluproperly be granted
by higher authority, Mayor Roche to-
day sent a letter OF instructions to the
police department in which he said:
81 have instructed the Corporation
counsel to convey to the court the
idea that if the court believes
under the evidence that the Arbeiter
Bund has legal and lawful right to hold
public meetings, We wish the Court to
declare it, and if the officers of the city
have been exercising unusual authority
they should be SO advised, as they do
not intend to act illegally or deprive any
person OF his rights upon mere techni-
cality. We do not propose under any
circumstances to deprive any class of
citizens of their constitutional rights,
but the Police Department must neces-
sarily be governed by experience.
1t is your duty to inquire, if
you believe a man is about to COM
NIT criminal offense, and take steps
to prevent such act. We do not desire
to again experience difficulties like those
we have had in the past. We must not
offer encouragement to such proceedings
as the Supreme Court of this State has
said led up to the Haymarket riot and its
unfortunate consequences, and it is to be
hoped that the courts will draw the line
in definite way SO that we may have
instruction and if we have not sufficient
authority under existing laws the re-
sponsibility must rest with others and
not with us

THE LAW MAKERS.
What They Will DO With the Tariff
and other Bills.


WASHINGTON, January 1.-Under an
agreement made respecting the Tariff
bill the Senate will meet tomorrow morn
ing at IL o'clock, and continue to do so
until the vote is taken on the passage Of
the bill. After miscellaneous business is
disposed of, the consideration of the
Tariff bill will be resumed, and it will
have the right Of way over all other
measures until action is taken on the
Dist instant. Chandler's resolution di-
recting the Committee on Privileges and
Elections 10 investigate the general or
State elections in Louisiana and Rhode
Island will come up tomorrow, but
opposition will cause the postponement
of its consideration until the Tariff bill
is out of the way. The prospects are
that the House will Immediately proceed
to the consideration of the appropriation
bills now on the calendar. The River
and Harbor bill has the right of way
among the appropriation bills and Chair
man Blanchard will call it up for further
consideration the first thing tomorrow.
Unfinished business is the bill to incor-
porate the Nicaragua Canal Company,
which has been favorably reported to the
House with amendments from the Com
mittee of the Whole. Friends of the bill
will call it up on Friday and try to secure
a vote on it,

COLORED CATHOLICS.
They Meet in Convention and the
Cardinal breaches.

WASHINGTON, January 1.-The Ma
tional Convention of Colored Catholics,
composed of delegates from nearly all OF
the colored Catholic churches and socie-
ties throughout the country, began it's
session this morning in the Saint Angus
tine Colored Catholic church in this city.
Every seat in the church was occupied
when, at 10 40 O'Clock, Father Tdlton, OF
Quincy, Illinois, the only colored Catho-
lie Priest in the United States, began
a solemn high mass. Immediately in
front of and beneath the pulpit sat His
Eminence Cardinal Gibbons. who deliv-
cred the sermon. He was clad in his
scarlet robe of his Office. At the
conclusion of the sermon the Cardinal
welcomed the delegates. This gather
ing, said he, will mark an era in the his
tory of the colored Catholics of the
country. He trusted that the delibera-
tions of the Convention would be marked
by moderation and discretion. The &C.
tions of the Convention would be
watched by the country, not with the
kindly eyes OF friendship, but with the
sharp ones of criticism. He suggested
that The Convention discuss the educa-
ton OF children. Religious education is
necessary to the life of the Republic. A
temporary organization was effected by
the choosing as President of William H
Smith. The Committee on Permanent
Organization was appointed, and an ad-
journment taken until TO morrow.

still others making for our surrounding

Ne Attacks Political Corfu ptfOn
without Gloves.

ALBANY, January 1.-The State Senate
was organized to-day by the election ol
j. Sloat Fasht, Secretary OF the Republi
can National Com mitiee, as President
pro tenn. Fremont Cole was elected
Speaker of the Assembly. The Inaugural
ton of Governor Hill was conducted with
much circumstance and display. While
reading his annual message the Governor
created some sensation when he EN-.
ployed these words: "The necessity oi
some change in our election laws
whereby the increasing corruption which
has become incident to our elections
may be prevented is imperative. 1t is
believed that the late Presidential election
WAS THE MOST CORRUPT OF ANY IN THE
HISTORY OF THE COUNTRY
So far as the direct use OF money was
concerned in thus influencing electors
and public sentiment is naturally awak-
ened to the desirxbility of some relief.
The peculiar causes which induced this
immense corruption are apparent. An
anxiety to subserve selfish and private
advantage rather than the general inter
ests of the public naturally led to the
campaign being conducted upon alleged
business principles, whereby it is as
serted that electors were bought and
sold like goods and chattels in open
market.
1T IS CLAIMED THAT AT LEAST 500, 200
We're expended in the Twentieth and
Twenty fourth Congressional Districts in
this State in the efforts made therein to
elect congressman, and to secure an elec.
ton believed to be favorable to the policy
OF fostering private interests. So success

That good citizens were led to doubt
whether the free and unbiased senti-
ments of people may not continue to be
nullified through corruption whenever
and as it appears that the interests Of the
people conflict with the interests of mo-
nopolists, who pra figate in their use Of
money are intent upon resisting all inter-
ference with their selfish and arrogant
demands"
Governor Hill recommended that by
Joint resolution the Legislature urge
Congress to adopt the Constitutional
Amendment regarding the Presidential
term and to make provision for ex-
Presidents. Governors Hills recon-
Office Of the President and Vice-President
shall be six years. Second, that the
President shall be ineligible for re.elec.

appropriate salary. This amendment
shall apply to all living ex-Presidents.
