PETTIGREW IN WALL STREET.

l met Senator Pettigrew, of South Da-
kota, the other day after he had gone up
town from Wall street, where he had
transacted some heavy financial bust
ness, says New York writer. He is a
lawyer and banker at home, and has
frequently been brought into contact
with New York bankers in large trans
actions. On the present occasion. as he
told me, he had closed negotiations
with large amount of money involved
in the most satisfactory manner, when
the head of the bank with which he was
dealing said: ''Well, l hope you will
reverse your opinion of Wall street
bankers after this transaction" The
senator disav0wed having ever held any
but high opinion of Wall street bank
ers, whereupon the president laughed
and pulled out an old cutting from a
newspaper, yellow with age, in which
Mr.. Pettigrew was represented as
calling the bankers of Wall street
sharks, robbers and wolves, with
choice epithets. The senator promptly
dlsavowed the interview, but laughingly
added: You shouldn't pull such an
old rusty gun as that on Western man
In any event. l have something here
which you may want to explain your
self" Thereupon he pulled from his
pocket a late clipping from a New York
paper, in which the banker was repre-
sented as saying that investments IN
Western securities while the Farmers
Alliance craze was on were precaTious,
and that it didn't seem to make much
dltference whether the farmer cranks or
other crankS of the Western states were
Oh top out there, none of them ever paid
their debts when due. Say said the
banker, when he had glanced over the
paragraph, ''what fools we mortals be-"
You bet" said the senator. and the
further proceedings were private.

DRAMATIC DATA.

The initial performance of Auber's SRA
Diavolo'' by the Wilbur Opera company was
given at the Metropolitan theater last even
ing to full house. It was by no means a
strictly artistic performance, though, as a
whole, the opera was given in pleasing style.
Miss susie kirwin as Zerlina was especially
effective in the second act The prima donna
was in good voice. and she sang the solos
well. E. a. Clark as Fra Diayoio was I'M
certain OF his lines, and somewhat married
his work, which otherwise was very credit
table. He proved himself quite equal to the
music. and will probably be heard 10 much
better advantage later in the week. w. II.
Kohnle and H. w. Ire Denick as Beppo and
Giacomo were success The comedy was
rather the bit of the production in fact,
Messrs. Ire Denick and Kohnie shar-
ing the honors. J. E. Comfy as Lo-
reno sang very well and looked
the part. Miss Gonzales. as Lady Allcash
was acceptable. The costuming is simply
gorgeous and it is nearly certain that
Fra Diavolo' was never more artistieally
staged than in this production of the Will
burs. The Spanish dance in the opening OF
the third act by Miss Belle Hamilton and lit
tie Eva Mathew is pretty thing. II didn't
go very smoothly last night, probably be-
cause it was the first time the twain have ap-
peared together. Taking it all round, the
weeks run of FRA Diavolo" should be a
successful one

contract with Annie Lewis. the little SOU
brette, last season with Hallen and Hart.

EXIT BACCARAT.

Gordon Cumming having been duly
disgraced and the Prince of Wales duly
whitewashed, British justice is satisfied
and the baccarat scandal takes its place
with all other nine-day wonders, says
an exchange.
But while it lasted what a panorama
it was! A Scottish laird with rent
roll of a quarter of million convicted
of a five-dollar swindle; parvenu fam
lily entertaing the heir apparent and
watching one of the royal circle to see
that he did not cheat his prince; the
prince himself unpacking his own prl-
vate gaming outfit and acting croupier
for all corners; an earl, general and
half dozen other dignitaries conspir-
ing to conceal crime and a dishonor;
spiteful sultana landing the whole af-
fair in the courts-and such tribunall
My lord the chief justice as soft as vel
vet to the future head of the church
and obsequious jurymen who scarcely
dared breathe In the presence Of the
blood royal.
1t wasa fine shew while it lasted.

A CUT IN FREIGHTS.
The Lackawanna Makes a Rate on
the Basis OF S12O.

NEW YORK, June 22.-The Tribune
tomorrow will say: AS foretold in the
Tribune the Delaware, Lackawanna 81
Western yesterday issued a tariff
schedule on freight from New York to
st. Paul on the basis of S1.20 first
class. The trunk line commissioners at
once issued circular asking for a full
attendance at the meeting of the eXecu-
tive committee to-day, when the Lacka-
wanna'S action will be considered. The
schedule issued Yesterday is to take eff
feet June "a. The Lackawanna
based its claim for a differential
upon the fact that it has to
break bulk in crossing Lake Michigan.
1t wanted rate of S1.20, but the trunk
line commissioners ruled that it was en-
titled to no differential from the estab-
lished rate. Accordingly the Lacka-
wanna has taken affairs into its own
hands by issuing an independent sched-
ule. This being violation of the
agreement of the trunk line associa-
ton, threatens crisis in the affairs of
the association.
The full schedule issued by the Lack
awanna is as follows: From New York,
Sl.20. Sl.03, Sic, sac, 45c and soc; from
points in Pennsylvania, S1.14, &c, roc,
SIC, 43c and SIC; from Central New
York, Sl.10, 94c, 74c, 49c, 40c and 35c;
from Western New York, S1.03, SSc,

of the article, and will add to the cost of
the tinware of the country, whether the
mines produce tin or not. But the pro-
lection choler rises when it is doubted
that the tin plate works springing up
all over the land are more than paper
institutions. In moments of. candor
manufacturers allege that the duty will
need to be doubled to induce any con-
siderable manufacture, except for party
purposes. This will add sixteen millions
more to the cost of the consumption of
the country, if it is the same as last
year. Tin plate is now % per cent
higher than year ago, in anticipation
of the duty to be operative next month.
The Welshmen have pocketed 100000
to be collected from the tin consumers of
this country. and prices will further adj
vance as the stock on hand is reduced.
This is the evolution of protection.

OPINIONS ABROAD.

A serious movement has been begun
by prominent citizens of st. Paul nd
Minneapolis looking toward the consol-
ldation of those rival towns in one big
municipality. Such union would give
the proposed Federal city" popula-
tion of at least 100000 before the time
for taking another national census, and
would insure Minnesota a representa-
tive among the eight or ten largest
cities of the United States. There are
other American cities which might
more properly take long steps forward
IN the same manner. The divisions be-
tween PittSburg and Allegheny, Pa,
and between Boston and Cambridge,
Tor instance, are wholly artificial

are said to make splendid wind breaks,
and fruit growers are interested. The

A SOUTHERN MANS IDEAS.

Maj. w. l.. Glessner, editor of the
Times-Recorder. of Augusta, Ca, presi-
dent OF the Georgia Press association. is
now on tour of the Northwest, and
will attend the editorial convention in
st. Paul. He was interviewed in Chi
cago the other day.
On the national canvass of 1872 the ma
jor says that since the silver letter of
Cleveland Georgia has been inclined to
desert the Cleveland standard and to
rally under that Of Hill.
t'W neither or not Hill falls short of
the statesmanlike qualities of Cleye-
land" said the major in reply to an OBJ
servatloH, "we want to nominate a man
with whom we can win. Success OF the
party is our chief concern. If Hill can
achieve that success, then we want him;
IL Cleveland, why, then, he's the one."
n suppose the free silver question
should be settled in the first session of
the next congress 30
''Then the tariff would be the para
mount question, and Cleveland, who is
the perSonification of tariff reform,
would have our united support. But if
silver should remain as prominent as it
is now, doubt if Cleveland could Sc
cure any of the Georgia delesa alton. Sill
yer is the chief subject of discussion
down our way. This is due to the
Farmers Alliance. which keeps push
ing it to the front. No. there will be no
third party if the Southern Alliance
has the say. 1t works through the Dem
ocratic party. and even if Cleveland
should be nominated it would join in
his support
But is the entire South more inter-
ested IN free silver than tariff reform %
mo; in reality you have more of free
silver because of the activity of the Al
lance. But the thing in which the
South is most vitality interested is the
tariff. Reciprocity is not helping US
any. Our chief anxiety is to dispose of
the cotton crop, our greatest product.
Reciprocity cannot help us, neither
does the protective tariff. Why, every
thing that is used to grow, harvest and
ship the cotton crop is made higher i'll
price by the tariff, particularly the jute
Tor wrapping, and none of which is
manufactured in this country. And
yet we are compelled to compete with
the world i'll selling our cotton. Talk
about pauper labor of Europe preventing
our manufacturers competing with
those of Europe; why. the most pauper-
lied labor in the world is the labor of
India, and it is with that country we
have to compete in selling our cotton to
Liverpool 1t is Liverpool that makes
the price, not New York.
This is why we SouthernerS can see
no use in high protection. The country
is greatly indebted to US for our cotton.
Last year our crop was seven and
quarter million bales. That means
value of over $500, $1,000. AS most of
it was sold in Europe, the supply of
gold shipped here in payment is what
has helped SO materially to keep this
country in SO good financial condition
as it is. For this reason our condition
should receive consideration. Tariff
reform will benefit us, and tariff reform
is what we want"

A BAD BLUNDER.

The attitude of the farmers of South
Dakota toward the Chicago fair is diff
1icult to reconcile with the impressions
had of that state. 1t can hardly be con-
celved that any narrow ideas are enter
tanned that it will prejudice those who
now partially possess the land to in
duce new settlers TO go there to engage
in agriculture. That would be an alb
surdity not to be seriously thought of.
The prosperity of the state is largely
dependent upon its continued growth.
1t needs thousands Of additional tillers
of the sUil. There are few states that
could derive greater benefit from the
presentation Of its interests to the peo-
pie from all parts of this and other
countries who will be seeking Informal
ton at the great fair. 1t has had a vast
reservation open to settlement for year
or more that has almost none of its lands
yet taken, and comparatively little of
the arabic portion of the state is yet
under cultivation. The greater part of
the state is underlaid by waters that
bound in the air at every artesian out
let, and contain almost infinite POSSIBLE
tiles in multiplying the products of the
soil, and perhaps in the development of
manufacturing industries, not to speak
of its boundless mineral resources. South
Dakota has the making of one of the
greatest and most prosperous states in
the West. The states all about it are to
be at the lake exhibit with liberal
array of the resources and pro-
auctions that invite favorable atten-
ton. The Dakota state is able to rival
any of them with its display, il it will.
Its public treasury may be little
cramped for time, but that is tempo
Tary, while the results to be promoted
by appearance at Chicago will be en-
during. But it would not seem that the
expense is the only objection to taking
part in the general display, as a Sioux
City paper alleges that the opposition
extends to participation in the big
corn palace exhibit at that place
this year, involving no public ap-
preparation. The latest statements
are that the opposition to any ac-
ton is SO strong that-the governor has
decided not to call the legislature to-
gether, as was proposed. to consider the
matter. No doubt enterprising citizens
will do something, but the state cannot
well afford to have no official presence
with the rest of the world.

GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM.

In the new ballot act the Democrats
succeeded in passing in the Ohio legis-
lature provision was made for a dis
tinctive emblem at the head of the
names of each party on the ticket. The
selection is made by the officials of the
party organizations. In pursuance of
this provision the Prohibitionists have
selected the white rose, the Republicans
the eagle and the Democrats the flag.
The farmers party will come In later
with some agricultural figure. perhaps

way they have been sheared in the Nc

ways good enough for the Democrats.

THE TIN RATTLE.

There is no malice in OCCASIONAL ref
erences to the development of the
tin industry, though it is an Irritating
topic for the mind infused with McKin-
leYism. In his little speech before the
Republican convection in Ohio. last week,
Senator SHERMAN indicated it as one
of the beatitudes of the party faith
that the duty on tin plate would de-
velop tin mines in this country. His
conception must be that the duty on
the tin plate would cause its manufact-
ure in this country. The architects of
the tariff, if they were honest. did not
believe that the duty on imported plate
would have any effect upon the product
of hypothetical or real tin mines
in this country; consequently they
imposed a tax of four cents per
pound upon tin ore. This is
about 20 per cent of the marker priea

Western states, including Minnesota.
1t is stated that it is to be introduced in
four cities in these states if it meets the
expectations il practical operation.
One charging is regarded as sufficient
for twenty-five miles of transit, and but
a couple of minutes are required for
putting in fresh battery. In the stor-
age system it is alleged that 80 per cent
of the electricity is utilized, while
the overhead method saves only from
% to So per cent. The public, however,
is chiefly concerned as to the efficiency
and sightliness of the system. The net
work of wires in use involves danger and
is an obstruction that it is to be hoped
will give way to something better in
good time,
