WASHINGTON, Oct. I2.- Secretary
| Blaine has changed his mind and will go
to Ohio the latter part of this month and
take hand in the campaign. This has
been forced upon him by the Republican
leaders who are now thoroughly alarmed
at the situation in the Buckeye state.
| Secretary Blaine made the best excuse
he could when Mckinley INVITED him TO
| speak in the district. He pleaded bus
mess as his reason for declining the invi-
| tation. No one doubts but that Blame
will do his best for MCKIuleyi and the
| Plumed Knight is a most persuasive talk
| er. A revenue reform Republican SAID
to-day that If Mckinley was returned it
would be an Endorsement of the tariff
| bill, and if he should run behind the
ticket, then the vote would indicate that
the Republicans of the Canton district
agreed with Blaine on the tariff question.

tariff speech delivered by Senator Car
Isle on the conference report. The
Democratic national campaign commit
tee have ordered 100 600 copies OF the

the most good. The committee has been
assured that the speech will be printed in
full by number OF Democratic papers.
Chairman Flower considers this the best
way to get this speech before the people.
ONE OF KILGoRE S STORIES
There is a story told by Col. Buck
Kllgore that has not yet seen the light of
day in the public print. A few days before
adjournment the colonel was at the din
ner table waiting dessert, when during
lull in the conversation he said: "A
fellow can hear great many stories in a
barber shop. l tell you the Washington
BARRIERS, as n rule are shrewd, bright
men, The other day while being shaved
my barber told me some of his expert
ence with public men. Just before the
close of Cleveland $ administration, said
the knight of the razor, "a fine looking
gentleman with the air of a man Of the
world, came in and sat down in my chair
and asked for a light shave. While
lathering him began to talk about the
navy, and among other things eX-
pressed the opinion that our navy
was rotten-rotten to the core.
continued in that strain aud criticised the
administration of the navy department.
and said what 1 thought it ought to be.
did not fail, however, TO notice that
my customer seemed to be somewhat
amused. When l had completed tho
finishing touches and was about TO sing
out next! my customer handed me u
good cigar with the remark that he was
the secretary of the navy. Well, you can
bet haven't said navy since.
STILL INVESTIGATING.
Interest in the Barruudia murder has
somewhat subsidized. But the state de-
partmeut is getting all the information is
can about the affair in order to lay the
matter in all its details before congress
next December. The state department
officials are very reticeut, and in answer
10 all inquiries on the subject say that
the department is making a full investi-
gaticn. Minister Miner, who has dis
graced the administration, will in all
probability be recalled, but not, how
ever, until Lieutenant Commander
George C. Reiter has made his statement
of the unfortunate affair.
HON. JOHN c. NEW,
consul-general of the United States at
London, is ut the Riggs house. Your
correspondent saw him last evening, and
in an interview Gen. New thus dis
coursed:
my trip over here has no political
significance. After STAYING eighteen
mopthsat my post feel like visiting my
! eansia1d. and all rumors that L would 20
foffdiana to take part in the campaign
are untrue. The party in that state has
plenty of capable leaders, fully compe-
tent to look after the work. -
els there much dissatisfaction abroad
over the new tariff Iaw?'
''Not so much in England as there is
on the continent. The British merchants
aud manufacturers are very conservative
and straightforward. The new order OF
things, change of forms in invoicing and
the like, incident TO the change of our
revenue system will be irksome to them
for awhile, but it will not take long for
the new machinery 20 get in smooth run
ming order. There is no loud complaint
in England over the Mckinley bill. -
''In Germany and France, however,
good deal of clamor has arisen. but it
will soon de out. They want our trade
too much to carry out any so-called re-
taliatory legislation. In any event We
could get along much better without
their products than they can without
ours. American cotton, wheat, and
meats are necessity across the Allan
tic. But commerce will 90 on as usual
The retaliation talked of is all buster.

never more robust. Ee will be here but
a short time, and sails next Wednesday
for England.
