A PLOT TO DOWN BLAINE.
HARRISON, REED AND RKINLEY
IN THE COMBINE.

They Look Upon Him as a Dangerous
Rival for the Nomination in 1902
They Want to Drive Him From the
Cabinet but Can't Blaine Defiant
and Confident.
WASHINGTON, July 29.-Looking upon
Secretary Blaine as a possible competitor
for presidential honors in 1892, President
Harrison, Speaker Reed and Chairman Nc
Kinley. who have concluded a temporary
alliance, are ready to oppose every scheme
he suggests. President Harrison interfered
with his Behring sea negotiations. Presi-
dent Harrison refused TO indorse his pan
American reciprocity report, and Speaker
Reed and Chairman Mckinley refused to
allow it to be considered in the ways and
means committee or the House. and are
prepared to stab it if it comes to the House
from the Senate. The silence of Speaker
Reed and Chairman Mckinley under all
Secretary Blaine's criticism of Speaker
Reeds revolutionary proceeding on the
force bill and of the tariff bill is the silence
of preparation.
WAITING TO DO HIM UP
They are just waiting, as has been stated
| in these dispatches, until the tariff bill
gets back to the House. Then Chair
man Mckinley, speaking for himself,
| President Harrison and Speaker Reed, will
say on the floor Of the House what they
| think Of Secretary Blaine. "Marplot" is
| the word they sum him up with. He has
| dared to thwart the purposes OF the bosses,
VINO are the would-be leaders Of the Re.
publican party, aud e. ey now propose to do
| what they can to punish him. There can
be no doubt in the mind of any we'll in-
formed man here that President Harrison
would have been glad TO accept the resigna-
| ton Of his Secretary of Stale almost any
time since March, 1889.
BLAINE AWARE OF 1T.
There can be no doubt that Secretary;
Blaine knows it. He also knows that
| Speaker Reed and Chairman Mckinley
| would like to ses him leave and that they.
| are doing what they can TO get him out
He knows from his friends in the House
that when the tariff bill comes back from /
| the Senate he is to bs read out Of the party
leadership if not out Of the party, SO far as
Chairman Mckinley can do it.
WILL SHOW UP HIS HEREsIEs.
II a reciprocity amendment of any sort is
added by the Senate, the
ways and means republicans,
with Secretary Blaine, because he disagrees
with the rest. will.unite in signing report
TO be written by Speaker Reed and Chair
man Mckinley pointing out Secretary
Blaine's hereses. Whether such an amend
ment comes over or not Chairman Mckinley
will get in his speech, but the jealous three
can no more drive Secretary Blaine out of
the cabinet than they can drive him out of
the party.
THEIR OPPORTUNITY LOST.
Their opportunity for that Is past, now
that Secretary Blaine has appealed to the
republicans throughout the country. Sec
rotary Blaine may leave the cabinet, but if
he does it will be Of his own will. He does
not mind it being disagreeable. He would
have willingly remained at the head Of the
state department. throughout President
Arthur's admi nisuration, when he was only
the head of faction. Now that he feels
himself to be the head of the party. he can
endure good deal if he wants to stay.

days of corruption and trickery do not change

uents without consideration. 1t will now be in
order to placate those whom they have SO
wickedly betrayed; and
WHEREAS Said editorial charges that a

had been contributed to the
democratic election fund by those interests,
but be knew that every day that the bill
was delayed was largely to the profit OF
foreign manufacturers. They were inter
ested in its defeat.
Mr.. Hiscock warned the democratic sena-
tors not to indulge in idle prophecies about
1892. In his (Mr. Hiscock'S) Judgment the
pending bill would become a law, amended,
of course, TO meet the Judgment of the SEN
ators and House Of Representatives.
LOOKING FOR A DEMOCRATIC REVOLUTION.
In his Judgment the democratic national
convention IN 1892 would abandon forever
its platform and its policy, and its tariff
bill Of 1888, and protection would be &C
cepted as the settled policy of both political
parties. He begged of the democr attic
senator's, therefore, to make no prophecy for

Mr.. voorhees, congratulated Mr.. German
on his great victory in breaking the silence

Mr.. Reagan repelled some illusions in Mr..
HIscock's speech uncomplimentary to the
southern states, and said that such utter

bound track and stepped on the east side,
but the fast passenger Hain came rushing
toward them. The children were paralyzed
with fright.
AFRAID TO STOP THE TRAIN.
Tho approaching engineer saw them, but
dared not apply the brakes suddenly, as that
course might have sent the train through
the bridge. The people ON the bank of the
river shouted to the children to get between
the tracks, but their cries were useless, for
the locomotive struck the group and hurled
three Of them upon the other track, dead.
The engineer was overcome at the sight,
but he had strength left to stick to his post,
and stop the train as soon as it had crossed.

men and women felt sickly feeling creep

BERLIN, July 29.-The Reichsanzeiger to-

memorandum of the Anglo-German agree
ment relative to territory in Africa.
1t begins by stating that the German colo
nial policy coming in contact with English
schemes caused disagreeable complications.
AS negotiations on the points do not lead to
complete settlement, it was desired TO
discuss the disputed points from every
standpoint.
HELIGoLAND'S MILITARY IMPORTANCE.
After giving seridtin the grounds for the
concession in Africa made by Germany to
England, the memorandum concludes by
insisting upon the value Of Heligoland, in
view of the national sentiment in regard to
the island and of the islands military i'm
portance. When the island is occupied by
Germany it will be difficult for an enemy
to blockade the north coast of the empire,
and its possession will give Germany more
power in the north seas and render 1t easier
to defend the Baltic canal.
