The d" campaign of falsehood," to which THE
TRIBUNE made reference yesterday, in its
latest development asserts that the Republican
members of the Committee on Privileges and
Elections are at odds on the question Of the
Federal Election bill This lie is nailed by
Senators Hoar and Teller, of that committee,
as our Washington dispatches show. The
Lodge bill when it came from the House was
laid on ine table in the Senate in accordance
with the desire of the committee, and 1T will
be called up in due time The members Of
the committee are acting in complete harmony
and with the fullest purpose of putting on the
statute book a law which will cure the election
evils both North and South, and give all cit
liens their rights.

task for the Republicans to hold the Legis-

One-third of the Republican Assemblyme en-

not likely to be returned this fall. In 26

David B. Hill. He is working like

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH,I
TORONTO. May 3o.-Toronto has been
busy all day entertaining Prince Arthur.
Considerable comment was caused by the
reception the Prince got at Osgoode
Hall, where all the high courts of
Ontario SIT. When the Duke of
Connaught entered the Court of Appeals
the Judges of the court were engaged with
a case, and a well-known lawyer was argu-
ing motion. The Prince stood on one of the
side aisles and toyed nervously with his
gloves and his vest pockets. The lawyer
continued his address, and the Judges
concentrated their attention on the
speaker. Not even by a wink did the
they acknowledge the presence of Prince
Arthur. Some lawyers and students, who
occupied seats in the rear of the court room,
stood up when the Prince en-
tered, but the judges and the members
of the bar then engaged, with the exception
of one who arose, did not stop work, and
paid no more attention to the Prince than if
he had been o frst-year law student, who
had dropped into court to listen to a case.
The fact that the visit of the Prince was
not recognized b. the judges, who, it is said
should have risen, If only for a second. has
caused q great deal of gossip. But it Is
said that the judges were right,
according to Lord Coke, and that
the fact that they really represented the
royal mother OF the prince was ample reason
why they should not unbend their dignity.

morrow morning, and returning Sunday,

NEW YORK, May 30.-This morning
at 10 o'clock the corner stone of the
Washington Memorial Arch was laid with
impressive ceremonies The music was a
special feature and was rendered BY choir
of 200 voices selected from the Oratorio
ard other singing societies. The anthem
America" and the ''Star Spangled Banner
were sung by the choir, the great multitude
about the stand joining in. The exercises
were opened with prayer by Bishop Potter,
after which George William Curtis, the
orator of the day, delivered an address, dur
ing which he said:

yesterday was completed this afternoon. Tne

contrary to general expectation. Hamll-
ton, for Treasurer, has 2, 2,401, Darrah 1,305,

received 2,875, Crswl ,229.
Of the Commissioners Wilson and Smith
are the winners with 2,297 and 2,025 votes
respectively. Messrs. Tod and Hunter, the
present incumbents, have $40 and 1,617.
Defeat Is by many attributed largely to their
having insisted upon the enforcement of the
law requiring assessors to return property at
the full valuation instead of the valuation
as presented by their predecessors. Thls
course, which was rigidly adhered to, caused
much opposition in certain rural districts,
and in South Beaver township particularly
led to mass meeting where indignant citi-
zens met with the commissioners to protest
against their actions. The utmost harmony
characterized to-day's session, and what
ever factional feeling may have been en-.
genered, did not appear in the deliberation
of the convention.
The result is looked upon as a decisive
Quay victory, and a crushing defeat to the
factions opposing him. Dick Quay, whose
election is regarded by very many as q fore
gone conclusion, declined to express him.
self on the result. There is considerable
speculation as to what result the large vote
for Quay, Jr., and Sterling will have on the
legislative aspirations of certain Demo
Gratis, who have been talked Of as
candidates in the event of the two named
meeting with opposition at the primaries,
and winning with but small plurality. The
large majorities given for those two in GER
tain wards OF Beaver Falls, where opposi-
tion to them was thought to be most intense,
is taken as an indication that their election
will be no more opposed than was their
nomination. Democratic hopes from that
source are correspoadingly lessened.

NEW YORK. May S0.-The news of Dick
Croker's coming home to brace up Tam
many Hail. and the action of the Republi-
can State Committee in reading the riot act
to the Legislative boilers, have made poll
tics here as lively this week as if we were
in the midst Of campaign. Both events
have keyed the party leaders up to an un-
usual degree OF excitement and activity for
this time of the year, for it is realized that
they are to have decisive bearing on the
result next fall Croker's return from
abroad means that Tammany is to go down
before Fassett's investigating committee
with colors flying, and the State Commit
tees notice to Assemblymen Fish and Gibbs
that they are no longer Republicans is the
most radical step either faction in the
party has taken against the other in
many years. If Fish and Gibbs were
all that the blow was aimed
at the fight would hardly rise
above q local squabble. The truth is,
though, that it is an open declaration of war
by Senator Platt against Warner Miller's
following, for having Joined with the Demo-
Gratis in upsetting the party programme in
the Legislature just adjourned.
With United States Senator at stake
and directly involved in the conflict and
with 10 Republican Congressman to re-elect
there are many who doubt the wisdom of
Mr.. Platt's course. A Arupture hardly more
pronounced among the Republicans
of this State snatched Grover Cleve-
land from obscurity and put him
in the White House. There is an
other and Jar better politician at
Albany now. with his ear low down to the
ground waiting to hear like summons,
and he has strong notion that Senator
Evarts' seat in the Senate would be con-
venient stepping stone to the place. That
adds another element of danger to the State
Committees action, though the necessity
for cutting loose from such political traders
as Fish and Gibbs can hardly be ques-
toned.
This means, of course, that there will be
a Platt and anti-Platt candidate for the
Assembly in the two districts at least, and
that q strong fight will be made BY the
Miller and Platt forces to capture the nomi-
nations to other places. The probabilities
are that three-cornered contest will be
the result in half dozen or more
districts Herein lies the danger to
the Republicans SO far as national
issues are concerned. The upper branch of
the Legislature has Republican majority
of six, holding over another year, so that the
fight is centered in the Assembly. That
body stands 70 Republicans to Sc Democrats,
making 16 majority. A net gain of nine

Over $500 shares in the Allegheny Sus-

o'clock the meeting settled down to the main
business of the convention. and began to
carefully consider upon the question of in

The plan was discussed in all its forms,
and opinions favorable to building wider

conspicuously from the beginning. Finally,
without dissenting voice, everyone voted
to enlarge the the bridge, at cost OF $780,
