AUBURN, February 1.-The Grand

with large attendance and under the
most favorable auspices. The day was
largely devoted to the reading of reports.
Adjutant General Milliken in his report,
says that rs posts have made a net gain
of 423; 66posts report a net loss of 393.
The largest net gain was made by Sheri-
dan Post of Biddeford, IS members.

The plaster recommended and univer-

Grosvenor's Bell-cap-sic.
It's in general use in hospitals and
public institutions.
In the Soldiers Home at Washington
nothing gives better results or is more
highly priced. Frequent orders from the
Soldiers Homes at Dayton and Milwau-

the old soldiers, stating the immediate
relief from aches and pains that these
plasters, effect. are indications of their

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Nov. 16.-Justic;
s. j. Field of the United States suprem,
court, will soon resign, and Presiden'
Harrison will appoint in his place Unitec
States Senator j. y. Dofph. This is tht
story that comes from Portland, and Il
bears the earmarks of truth. The reason
for Justice Fields retirement is his cordia
dislike of Grover Cleveland and his desir,
to deprive him of a chance to name his
successor. His animosity dates back
eight years ago, when there were some
Federal vacancies to be filled in Oregon.
Justice Field was in charge of the circuit
and submitted list of names, but Cleve-
land ignored them, and filled the place
with men personally distasteful 10 the
venerable jurist.

WASHINGTON, Nov. IS. - The United

reported to Attorney General Miller that
the case Of Mr.. Thomas, treasurer OF the
New York state Republican committee is
not cognizable by his Office, as the offense
charged, il committed at all, was COM
mitted in Washington. The attorney
general has, therefore, referred the case
to the United States attorney for the Dis
trict OF Columbia, with instructions that
IL he finds that the law has been violated
he shall vigorously prosecute the offender.
II is charged that Mr.. Thomas violated
the civil service law during the recent
campaign by soliciting political contribu-
tions from clerks in the executive depart
ments at Washington.

Heavy Pension Payments of tho Past

Heavy Pension Payments of tho Pas
Month Have Reduced the Cash.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1s.-The heavy pen
sion payments this month, amounting to
nearly fifteen million dollars, and the un-
expected falling off in government re-
ceipts have reduced the cash balance OF
the treasury to s27, $4,000, nearly all o.
which is either subsidiary silver or on de-
posit with national banks.
A still further decline is expected be-
fore the end of the month, but II will un-
doubtedly be checked very shortly by a
natural increase in the revenues.
Secretary Foster said yesterday that
Notwithstanding the recent unusual heavy
drains on the treasury and the fact that
the sugar bounty for the year will amount

million for the previous year, he was con-
fident that there will be no deficit In the

TARIFF LEGISLATION.
Senator Vest Says the Democracy
Will Proceed Slowly.
AN EXTRA SESSION NOT NEEDED.
Hugh McLauhlin Is Said to Have Select
cd Alfred q. Chaplin as His Candidate
For tho New York senatorship-Mrs.
Lease For Senator From Kansas.

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, Nov. Ex-senator
Vest returned yesterday from Texas,
where he had been since the election. He
expressed himself freely as to how the
Democracy should handle the tariff dur
ing the coming session Of Congress. Said
the Senator: "There is no danger to the
country in our victory. We do not pro-
pose to smash the business interests as
the blacksmith would destroy a fine
watch. We will proceed cautiously, de-
liberately, but firmly TO readjust the tariff
taxes, so that the tariff shall not be a
shield for trusts and monopolies. Free
trade pure and simple is impossible, for
we must raise a large amount OF money
necessary to carry on the government by
import duties, but in doing so we shonld
act cautiously. 1t is impossible to spec.
ify in an interview the details OF proposed
legislation, but j can venture to say for
myself that l would remove the duty on
refined sugar and binding twine, and
decrease the duty on tin plate. l would
also admit wool free and reduce the
duties on woollen goods and hardware
and cutlery. There are many incongru.
titles and outrages in the Mckinley act
which should be remedied. j might give
many instances, but they have been fully
discussed in the canvass. McKinley's law
has defeated his party. IL was made by
the manufacturers nnd failed to humbug
the people with the pretence that the con-
sumner did not pay the tax"
Senator Vest discussed the idea OF an
extra session. "Mr. Cleveland is too
level headed for any such nonsense" said
he. "He does not believe in q cavalry
charge upon the existing system of taxa
tion and finance. He is firm, but also
conservative, and knows that we must
make haste slowly. We intend to do the
work thoroughly, but not like boys at
play. Our first duty when we meet in
Decem ber will be TO provide for the de-
the Billion Dollar Congress. We must
redeem our promises TO the people and
prove ourselves worthy OF their conf
dence. IL we do the Democratic party |
will remain in control for the next quar-
ter of century,"

HIS Candidate Antagonized Iby Bos,
Mclaughlin of Brooklyn.
NEW YORK. Nov. 1S.-Hugh McLaugh-
lin of Brookly,', 1t is understood, has Sc
lected Alfred {. Chaplin as his candidate
for United Star IS Senator, against Edward
Murphy, Jr., who took the field last week
Murphy defeated the nomination ol
Chaplin for governor by supporting Ros-
we'll p. Flower In 1891. David b. Hill also
apparently has not been able to persuade
Mr.. Mclaughlin to support Murphy for
Senator.
At a first step toward becoming a candi-
date for Senator, Mr.. Chaplin today filed
his resignation as Congressman with the
secretary of state. Mr.. Chaplin was ap-
pointed a state railroad commissioner,
with a salary OF $4,000 a year, i'm April last,
and 1t was then thought that he would
resign his Office of Congressman immedi-
ately. Mr.. Chaplin would favor the APP
pointment Of Cleveland Democrats to fed
eral offices in this state. That Mr. Cleve-
lands friends see and therefore it Is quite
likely that they will do all they can to
elect him over Mr.. Murphy.

wildly cheering, while others did not

much said against the foreign laborers
returning to work indicates that they have
been released so that the mechanics can
receive more from the relief funds.
