WASHINGTON, March Especial tele-
gram to The HERALD. There is a strong
probability that General Malone, of Vir-
ginia, will accept the nsul-generalship 10

port. The Office is one of the most lucrative

desperate financial straits, and although he
would dislike to leave Virginia, IL is be-

The Duty on Tin Plate.

WASHINGTON, March GA number of
canned goods dealers made arguments be-
fore the ways and means committee in OPP
position to the proposition in the tariff bill
to increase by two-thirds of cent pound
uhe duty on tin plate. Representatives
contended that half the price theyreceived
for their goods was made up of the cost of
the can and the present tax amounted to
10 per cent. on tomatoes and corn packed.
The Gamers of this country consumed
about twelve thousand dollaa's worth of
tin plate per annum and the tax upon 1t
was paid almost entirely by people.
Representative Bayne said IN the course
of "a year and half the mills of this coun-
try would be producing all the tin plate
needed for domestic consumption and at a
price that would compare favorably with
the present price paid for imported tin
plate. Thirty thousand men would also be
given employment and the country save
SIC, 100000 now sent away to pay for En-
| glish tin. This statement was received
with incredulity by the packers, who said
however, if they could be assured that thi:
result would follow they would have moth

THE DEMOCRATIC ATTITUDE
On Several Important Measures is Defined by
Ex-Speaker Carlisle.

WASHINGTON, March 22.-The Sm1-Gd-
zette, of this city, tomorrow will publish
an interview with ex-Speaker Carlisle upon
the attitude of the Democratic Represent
atives toward several important measures
pending before the House. In the inter
view Carlisle first attacked the Lodge bill
providing for the federal regulation of cleo
tions for Representatives. He says:
1.-The Democrats in the House are a unit
in their opposition to the first clause which,
in practice, would make the bill operate
only in certain sections of the country. If
we are to have such a law, it should operate
everywhere alike and not be left as the
Lodge bill leaves it to operate here and there
as may be requested by a given number
of voters in this or that congressional dis
trict. The intention is, in other words, to
control the machinery of elections for
representatives in Congress from southern
congressional districts and from few
northern districts. This we shall oppose. ;,
Continuing, Carlisle estimated that to
carry out the provisions of the bill would
require the employment of 10000 officers.

years, which would have to be met by the
United States treasure. If the Australian
system is adopted as proposed, it would
neceSSitate vast increase in the number
of polls. Then, too he argued, the bill is
so complex that its requirements could
never be made clear to illiterate voters OF

and a legal election would be impractic

Rumors from Rio de Janiero.

Rio DE JASIERo, March 22.-The air here
is alive with rumoIs. People are saying
now it is the intention of the provisional
government to annul the decree convoking
the constitutional assembly and prolong
the dictatorship five years. At a dinner
some days ago the minister of war alluded
to this report. People, ne said, should not
insult The government and army by circu-
lating such rumors. Neither in the gov
eminent nor army was there anyone who
desired the baneful supremacy of the
sword. What members of the government
most earnestly desired was to return as
soon as possible to private life. AS to him.

Siberian Exiles.


tSpecialto THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Dispatch
NEW YORK, March GA letter has been
received by Ivan Smirnoff from Russian
exile now in London, the Countess Mar
raik now, which gives some painful revela-
tions of the condition of exiles in Siberia
The writer quotes from letters recently
received from Siberia. The letters give
statistics that the writer says ''may be re
lied upon as nearly if not quite correct -
The statistics are in substance that the
exiles to Siberia in 1856 numbered 16,1S4
Nihilists, or their reported supporters. In
1887 there was added 4,2T more. In 1855
the number was 1908, aud in 1889 the ex-
lies there were IL, 600 OF the number ex-
He'd the deaths range from one hundred and
eighty to two hundred and twenty per
1000 due TO natural sickness, cold, expo
sure and lnout punishment. The suicides
average about twenty to 1000. During the
month of August, 1889. in one of the cen
trial political prisons, 275 of 800 prisoners
were PROSTATE with typhoid fever The
letter says:
1.-The hospital accommodations being in
sufficient many of the fever racked
Infected with disease. For lack of medical
attendance many died. In another part of
the prison what is called riot occurred,
but what, in reality is only slight in
fringement of some cast iron prison rule.
The average of those fiogged with the
knout is ten out of every one hundred per
sons.n
INSTANCES of cruelty in various prisons
are quoted in which prisoners feet were
frozen in their cells, and MEN were SEN
out TO wash clothes when the thermometer
was % degrees below zero. Commando
Massinkoff is also charged with calling thu
men before him 10 irons aud striking then
in the face while they were HELPLESS. Dis
pite these facts it is stated that the Russian
papers continue TO represent that the If

great alarm is felt. Reports from points
in the mountains of West Virginia show
that all the streams are bank full and

there is a good deal of apprehension. In

IDAHO POLITICIANS.
Ex-Delegate Ainslie's Appearance
in Washington
GIVES RISE TO CoNJECTURES.
Democrats Find no Favor in the Eyes of
Dubois, Shaup, Stevenson & Goa
Bitter Fight i'll Prospect.

WASHINGTON, March 22.-l Special tele-
gram to THE HERALD. Hon. w. j. Nc
Cornell, of Idaho, one of the presumably
new Senators from that prospective state,
left for home last night after two
months stay in this city. 1t is perhaps u
little surprising that both Governor Shoup
and Mcconnell should leave the day before
eX Delegate Ainslie, of Idaho, appeared on
the scene. Ainslie is a Democrat and was
to have come on in January last with eX-
Governor Stevenson to whisper in the ear
of their fellow Democrats the good tidings
that Idaho would come in grand old
Democratic state. Fifteen hundred nollars
was raised by the Republicans of Idaho to
to send these gentlemen to Washington.
MIR. Stevenson, forgetting the many favors
of his party in the past broke away from
his affiliations and took the Republican
lucre and for a month waited impatiently
for his co-laborer, but Mr.. Ainslee failed
to materlalize. He was too shrewd to face
his former associates in Congress, all of
whom are opposing Idaho's admission, and
so he waited until after the supreme court
decision on the test oath case, until after
| Luc ldNuldUIG ISpOIb VI JIG lcTTllOTldl
committee, and finally until after
the men who had given him
his seat in Congress had left.
With the disappearance of Bishop Bulge
and other former constituents of his from
the southern counties of Idaho, he quietly
drops into the city with his share of the
81, 800 to do what he can for admission. But
it is thought that Mr.. Ainslie will get very
little satisfaction out of his stay or glory
either, as both Shoup and Mcconnell pre-.
ferred to leave the city rather than divide
the honor of Idaho's admission with him
1t may be said, however, by way OF conso
lation to Mr.. Ainslie that the Democrats
find very little favor in the eyes of Dubois
Shoup, Mcconnell & Co. They used then
earlier in the session, but their days o
fondling and caressing have passed, ant
the situation has narrowed down to part,

Schmidt held that they were in the league
to stay. The committee kept up
negotiations with the two clubs named.
Brush and Schmidt remained flrm until it
was made plain to them that disaster to the
league would result. Then Brush said he
would transfer his men to some other club
in the league and this resulted in settle

for their advantage. Robinson thinks
the effect of the transaction will be
the means of downing" the brotherhood.
The transfer of the Indianapolis players TO
the New York league club made it 100 per
cent. stronger, and he is very confident OF
victory. Brush said the ten-club schedule
meant an unequal fight with the brother
hood, who had decided advantage. His
men understood the transfer was made for
their best interests and agreed to the terms
for accounting to the pew. An eight-clut
schedule was gotten up to-day. The sea

ST. PETERSBURG, March 22.-Divorce is
an exceedingly costly and difficult process

number of married couples who, having
quarreled, live apart without being legally
separated. In cases such as these it often
becomes extremely difficult for the wife to
obtain her husbands cooperation in 4 re
quest 10 the government for leave to travel,
and many Russian grass widows who re-
side at Paris and Florence have been forced
to buy their husbands acquiesciance to
their absence abroad at heavy cost. The
restrictions imposed by the government
upon Russians leaving the country, al
though apparently tyrannical and despotic,
are not without their advantages. No one
can either leave or enter Russia without q
passport, and the latter is invariably re
fused if applicant is seeking to depart il
order to evade the payment of debts OIL
