BLAINEs SLATE BRoK EN-.

Rumored Demurrer OF the President ia
the Secretary's Desires.
NEW YORK, March 13.-The Suns
Washington special says: cat the last
meeting Of the cabinet it is reported on
pretty good authority that Mr.. Blaine
showed his list of foreign appointments
to Mr.. Harrison and asked the nomina-
tions to be at once made. In addition to
the names of Mr.. Reid and Mr.. Phelps,
he asked for the nominations Of Allen
Thorndyke Rice as minister to Germany.
President Harrison is said to have looked
at the list for a moment, and at first,
with some show of Difference and cour-
tesy, to have given Mr.. Blaine an oppor-
tunity to withdraw his request. The sec
retary of state insisted that the nomina-
tions be decided upon. The president
gave the first indication of his determi-
nation that where MacGregor sits, there
is the head of the table. He is said to
have refused to make the nomination Of
Mr. Reid on that day and gave as his
reason that he had decided ON another
man for the place. He also said that il
Mr. Reid would accept the nomination
for another mission he would very
gladly name him for one. In regard to
Mr. Phelps the president also declined to
make his nomination, as requested; bun
intimated that his mind had not favor.

PROHIBITION and temperance legisla.
tion is being discussed all over the
country. It is topic of universal COM
ment The new topics Of the discussion
to day are The defeat of the prohi.
bition amendment In New Hampshire
and the peculiar platform Of the Prohi-
bitionists in Chicago. The platform is
ornamented with a declaration in
favor of the rigid enforcement Of
Sunday laws; the control Of street rail.
ways, gas and water franchises by the
city; and an eight hour day for working
men. 1t is an old and womout dodge Of
the old parties to fish for what is called
''the labor vote" with this sort Of bait.
But it does not pay. It is simon pure
demagogy. 1t is an abandonment Of
principle for an appeal to the lower
instincts of the most ignorant
Of the electoral class. To say nothing Of
Of the unsound political policy it is. bad
policy on generalgrounds to say one thing
and mean another thing II is bad to
employ evil means to accomplish a good
end. 1t is also bad morals and deserves

The presI,lent,s nav.

WASHINGTON, March 13.-The presi-
dent has at last established the regular
order of things at the executive mansion
and consequently he is enabled to devote
more time to his official duties. The Gus
tom of former presidents of receiving
callers from 10 to ~ o'clock in the fore
noon will be followed by Gen. Harrison.
During these two hours there were many
persons received. Senators Washburn
and Davis, of Minnesota, came early.
Others that called were Senators Stewart
and several friends, Senators Cameron
and Cullom, Representatives Wickham,
Dingle and friends and Reed, Senators
Blair and Hawley.
A number of delegations came to press
candidates for positions. Among these
were a committee representing several
states who favored Hon. r. r. Butler, of
Tennessee, for commissioner of Indian
affairs. A delegation of District of
Columbia lawyers presented the name of
Judge job Barnard for the vacant posi-
tion on the district supreme bench. Mr..
Cleveland nominated Assistant Postmas-
ter General Stevenson for this place, but
the senate failed to act on the nomina-
ton. Two more district delegations
called to request the president to nomi-
nate district commissioner from the re-
spective sections of Washington that they
represented. At half past II a meeting
of the cabinet was held.

With entire confidence that whenever the
people OF the two countries really desired
union they would find a reason for it,
But he did not care TO hasten that matter
at all. 1t should be a popular move
ment, and not a movement on the part
OF the govsr@nents. So far as he knew
there was practically no difference on
either side of the line from the Ohio bor-
der to the Pacific ocean, aud he had no
doubt that the representatives of every
state from Ohio westward to the new
state Of Washington would make the
same declaration.
Mr.. Butler Zone Of the members of the
select committee) said that he had not
supposed, when the select committee was
provided for, that there was any inten-
ton of considering the question of the
annexation of Canada or of political
union of the two countries.
Mr.. Gibson said that as there had been
distinct avowal that it was no part of
the business of the committee to deal
with the political relations of Canada,
but that it was to confine itself exclu-
sively to business and commercial rela-
tions, he was disposed to support it very
cordially. But the United States had
very extensive relations with Mexico.

had no political mission whatever, he
suggested that it should be also instructed
to inquire into the relations between the
United States and Mexico.
Mr.. Hoar said that he would cheerfully
vote now or hereafter, for a select com
mittee to deal with the important and in
teresting subject of Mexico, but he did
not think it wise at this time to put that
burden on this select committee.
Mr. Gibson-Then | give notice that
will offer a resolution for the appoint
ment of select committee to inquire
into our commercial relations with
Mexico, having nothing to do with our
political relations
Mr.. Frye--lf any one supposes that
annexation with Canada is to be had by
any movement on the part of the United
States, he is most profoundly mistaken.
Mr.. Call favored the appointment of
the committee and gave notice that he
would offer a resolution for the appoint
ment Of like committee on the rela-
tions Of the United States to Cuba and
the West Indies.
Mr.. Payne withdrew his motion to
strike off the list of the committees the
select committee on relations with
Canada.
The select committees were then agreed
to, and after a short executive session
the senate adjourned.

valuable 70 Housekeepers.

A simple but very effective arrangement
to prevent an article of food from burning
before it is thoroughly cooked has re,
Gently been patented by J. c. Parker Of
Havre De Grace, Nd, who is now in tins
city introducing his invention. Every
housekeeper knows that If she sets her
stewpan on the stove with fruit vegeta-
bles, or any other article of food in it,
unless she watches it carefully and stirs
it constantly, whatever she is stewing OF
preserving will burn in the bottom be-
fore i is thoroughly cooked. The reason
for this Is a simple one. The heat is con-
centrated and therefore the greatest by
contact in the bottom of the cooking ap-
phance, and is unevenly distributed
less on top than any where else. This
trouble has been met by suspending an
earthenware crock, which is the best ma
terial in which to preserve or stew any
article, inside Of a metal bucket with a
movable top and open at the bottom.
This equalizes and economies the heat.
distributes it uniformly throughout the
inner crock and necessarily cooks thor
oughly whatever it contains.

LECTURE ON TURKEY.
An Armenian Talks at Second Baptist
Church on Oriental Customs.

The Rev. K. Fl. Basmajian assisted by
his wife ahd two children gave an inter-
esting lecture on the manners and Gus
toms of Turkey, in Second Baptist
Church last evening, before a large
audience. They were dressed in their
native costume. The children sang in
three differentsanguages.
The lecturer said they were not Turks
but Turkish 0renians, and that there
were so, 900 Orenian protestants beyond
the Atlantic Ocean.
In speaking of the railroads he said they
were very imperfect, aud that there was
railroad between Constantinople and
Adrianople, but it took thirteen hours to
get from one place to the other There
no sympathy between the government
and the people and rich man can send
his children to school while poor man
is compelled to keep them away, not
being able to expend the money.
While we have nice churches they have
rude temples, and instead of sitting on
benches sit on the ground.
The speaker said he had visited many
of the great cities of the United States,

the Tenth street sobemo.

To the Editor Of EVENING JOURNAL.
Allow me space In your paper TO make
a few remarks about the opening Of
Tenth street. | am not in favor Of
increasing the debt on our city, which is
entirely too heavy at present. Now,
those in favor Of widening Tenth street
say it will only odd very small amount
TO our present tax / ask those experts
on finance to cipher up our present inter
est on the debt Of this city and find out
how many men it would keep In work the
whole year around, and every one knows
the condition of our Streets in the winter
They are nothing better than mud holes
in winter, and in summer they would
blind you with dust. don't think there is
a city in the country has less to show for
the heavy debt. We have not public
square for our citizens to spend few
hours In on summer evening. / think
IL Is time that tax payers of this city
should rise up and stop such unnecessary
expenses Let the city railroad come In
Ninth and go out Tenth street, and let
the teams follow the cars as they do in
other cities. Still If the majority of tax
payers are in favor of widening Tenth
street let them 20 about 1t in
a business like manner Let the CITY
Council and the property holders ON
Tenth street each appoint two men, then
call In fifth man and let them agree as
to the value Of this property. The next
step would be to get an estimate from
the contractors Of the cost Of moving
these buildings, then levy a direct tax
and pay for it. II the city finances was
managed as a business man manages
his business the interest that is paid
away would keep many poor man in
work the year around II there is not a
stop to the increasing of the debt Of this
city, poor mans tax will be more than
his rent should be. BY stopping the
debt our taxes will flow through the
proper channel. and the circulation Of IL
will be benefit to us all.

alleged that Chicago beef is impure. dis.
eAsed or bad, but simply, cheap. The vic
ious doctrine taught by Republican dem
agogues has borne fruit among the
butchers and they want projection. The
st. Louis butchers are unit against
Chicago meat owing to the fact that the
Chicago Dressed Beef Company can put
choice dressed beef on sale in that city
at a less price to the consumer than the
beef offered by the local butchers. If
the legislators Of the several states can
not hnd subjects within the perview

WHEN the widening of Tenth street
was first broached, the EVENING JouR-
NAL mildly advocated it under the mis-
apprehension that the expense would not
be great aud that it would be paid by in
creased taxation. We find now that we
were misinformed, that the cost Of
widening the street win be considerably
more than the first estimate; that many
decades Of increased taxation win
mot pay the expense; that
the expense win not be war
ranted BY the traffic Of Tenth street
that there is no traffic on Tenth street ;
that carriage driving can easily be
diverted into other streets; finally that
there seems to be "a nigger in the

mot believe in spending 500. 1000, or
more, on such a wild scheme Of Landscape

Of the Walton 4 Whann Company and
Professor Williams Of Philadelphia
started an informal discussion on the
subject Of purifying water Professor
Williams, who is a chemist explained
that the principal impurities in the
Brandywine water were salts Of sodium
or magnesia. It could be purified by
trlsodium phosphate which would not
only coagulate the substance held in sus.
pension IN the water, but would remove
the salts Of sodium and magnesia. He
illustrated this by experiments. In
answer to a question put by Pres
ident Porter, he said that tri.sodium
phosphate could be used in filters To
better advantage than alum, because il
would remove the salts Of sodium and
magnesia, while the alum would only
remove the impurities held in suspen-
sion The cost Of purifying water by
these means would be $50 per dav for
