The DelagOa Railway.

LONDON, June 29-The STANDARD con.
menting on the resolutions adopted by the
shareholders of the Delagoa Bay Railway
company yesterday blames them for im
prudence. 1t urges that it would be use
less to force Portugal to fulfill her conces-
sion to the company, and thinks that
Portugal should merely be compelled to
return to the company the money it ex-
pended and pay an indemnity for the
damage it has caused. 1t says Lisbon
must be blockaded in the treasury to OBJ
tain justice.
The Times is in favor of forcing Portugal
to fulfill her concession.
The report received by the ChroRi-
Gle from Durgan that Portugals decree
cancelling the concession has been re-
scinded, is not confirmed

! Special TO TIE HERALD---Examlner Dispatch
WASHINGTON, June 29.-There will be a
called session of Congress in October next.
The date has not yet been determined upon,
but it will probably be sometime between
the 18th and goth of the month. Ny author
ity for this declaration comes direct from
the President, who made the announce
ment by implication to distinguished Re
publican leader who called upon him Thurs
day The gentleman in question IS mem
Der of Congress who is opposed to meet
ing earlier than the regular datein Decem-
Der. and he went to the White
House therefore to obtain specific
information upon that point The
President replied by asking his visitor
for his own opinion regarding the matter.
The latter stated his objections briefly
They were: 1.-The slender margin by
which the Republicans controlled theHouse.
THAT the people of the country WClld
hold the Republican party responsible II the
extraordinary session were barren OF prac-
teal results, and 3-That it would be bet
ter to wait until the new states had been
admitted, as the expected gains IN the
northwest would increase by several votes
their majority in the House. The PresI-
dent however, put the objections
to the Republican party to accomplish some
thing at the coming session OF Congress.
The people. he continued were expecting,
among other things, q reduction OF the rev
enue and a change IL the revenue
system and he did not propose that the
excuse should be made that the session was
not long enough to do all that they ought to
do. For this reason he desired that they
should meet in October and elect their
speaker, form their committees and be
ready for business by the first Of December.
There would then be left eight or even nine
months which could be given up entirely to
useful legislation The Presidents caller
left the White House satisfied that later in
the season Gen. Harrison would put his
ideas into force.
Gen. Thomas Brown. Of Indiana, for
many years one of the Republican members
Of the Rouseways and means committee IS
very strong in his belief that the next Con
gress viii devote q great deal Of its time to
the discussion OF internal revenue and tariff
legislation. Gen. Brown believes III a care
ful revision of the laws touching both these
important subjects. He believes not III the
introduction Of one bill, but of four to reach
the desired end. 1.-The adoption of the
under valuation feature Of the Senate bill.
2-The abolition of the tax on tobacco and
spirits used in the arts. "a bill making
additions to the free list, and "A bill
revising the different tariff schedules,
where il is practicable. The introduction
Of these measures separately, will no doubt,
GCu Brown says, insure their passage
SrTithOut material change. whereas, If they
were ali incorporated in one bill it might be
defeated because of individual objection to
one or two particular clauses.

The Administration and the Negroes.

WAsHIN GToS, June 29.-Dispatches to
several papers dated June >, quoted the
President as having spoken as follows in a
recent conversation with a southern dele
CATION:
perhaps I comprehend this race
question quicker and better than
any of you gentlemen think, and
sympathize with your feelings in re-
gard to the colored people, more than you
know. Certainly in your place I would feel
as YOU do. Personal contact with an alien
in social, political and professional life
would not be agreeable to me and l would
not like to see a negro mayor or postmaster
of indianapolis. nor one representing the
power and authority Of the United States in
an official or administrative capacity at my
own home. 1t would not be agreeable to
practice my profession before a colored
federal Judge or meet Gnegro at the federal
bar as United States attorney. l do not
intend to impose upon the people of the
south those conditions which / would find
it rather hard if imposed on me"
Ex-senator Bruce and Auditor Lynch
called at the Associated Press bureau and
requested that as wide circulation as pos
sible be given 10 the following statement
made by them in relation to the above:
They feel fully authorized TO say that the
report of the Chicago conversation is err
roneous. They had occasion to call on the
President several times, and on each occa-
sion he fully expressed himself on matters
pertaining to the colOred race, and they do
not hesitate to say his views upon that sub
ject are fair and just and viii commend
him to the appreciation of the cOlOred peo-
pie throughout the country. The last time
they called on was Wednesday, when they
presented an address recently adopted by
the conference of colOred men held at Jack
son, Miss, June 13. That address,
among other things, declares: That
Mr. Harrison is the President, not
OF one section, but Of the whole
country: not of one race, but Of all the
races of which our nation is composed.
His ambition is TO destroy rather than to
promote race prejudice and sectional am
bition. The President assured the delega-
ton of his own position upon that subject,
and it could not have been more accurately
or correctly stated. The colored men, he
declared, should not ask to be appointed to
Office simply on account of their color, nor
should their color be a ground of objection
In view of all these facts it is the opinion
of Lynch and Bruce that if the colored
people will only be patient and confide in
the President, they will not be disappointed
in their Just and reasonable expectations.
Besides the appointments already made by
the President which ought, they believe,
to satisfy everybody that he entertains no
such sentiments as those he is alleged to
have expressed in the above dispatch, they
assert positively that he entertains no such
sentiments.

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Cable
LONDON, June 29-''President Harrison
will make a change in his cabinet very
soon" This was said by Congressman
William E. Mason, of Chicago, as he was
hurrying along this morning to catch the
train for Paris. Mason, by reason of the
very efficient service he rendered the Re
publican party in the last campaign, is un-
derstood to stand very close to Harrison
politically, and consequently many will
consider the words quoted above as having
great significance. When asked to be moro
explicit, Mason said:
"Of course l cannot say positively what
the President will or will not do, as no ono
can do that; but before left Washington [
learned from sources which 1 deemed
worthy of the fullest confidence, that the
President intends to appoint Attorney Gen
eral Miller to the seat on the
supreme court bench made vacant
by the death of Justice stan
ley Matthews. Miller was the Presidents
old law partner in Indianapolis, and pre-
sumably the President desires to give him
what he wants. 1t has been understood for
some time that his ambition was to get on
the supreme court bench.
Inc information L received was that
Noble, secretary of the interior, will be
transferred to the attorney generalship
He is well fitted to be Acknowledgement.
Then Clarkson, now assistant post
master general, would be promoted to tho
secretaryship of the interior. 1t is the
Presidents wish, believe, to get Clark
son in the cabinet. AS mBtter of fact,
Mr.. Clarkson has been doing more good
solid work than anyone else since the ad-
ministration took hold, and every one
knows how much he did in the cam
paign.
81 believe these changes will be made
very soon and furthermore, think they
ought to be made"
