NEW SECRETARY OF STATE
John w. Foster, who Antagonized MIR.
nlhIne, Takes tho Vacant Portfolio.

John w. Foster. who AntagonIzed Mr..
Blaine, Takes the Vacant Portfolio.
WASHINGTON, June 30.-The president
yesterday sent TO the senate the nomina-
tion of John W. Foster, of Indiana, to
be secretary of state.
As soon as the announcement was
made TO the senate it went into execu-
tive session and at once confirmed the
nomination of Mr.. Foster.
Gen. John Watson Foster is an Indi-
anian by birth and Pike county claims
the honor of being his native county.
lie was 80 years old March last.
lie graduated from the Indiana
state university in 1855 and, after
one year at the Harvard law school,
was admitted TO the bar and began to
practice in Evansville lie entered the
nations service in 1861 as major of tho
Twenty-fifth Indiana infantry. During
his entire service he was connected with
the western armies of Grant and Sher-
man. He was commander of the ad-
vance brigade of cavalry in Burnsides
expedition in east Tennessee and was
the first to occupy Knoxville in 1858.
AfteTthe war he became editor of the
Evansville Daily Journal and In 1869
was appointed postmaster of that city.
In 1878 Gen. Foster was appointed
United States minister to Mexico by
President Grant and reappointed by
President Hayes in 1850. In March of
the latter year, however, he was trans
fcrred 10 Russia and held that mission
until November 1851, when he returned
a.. -.
diately following his return, Gen.
Foster established himself in practice
in international cases in Washington,
acting as counsel for foreign legations
before courts of commissioners, in
arbitrations, etc.
President Arthur appointed Gen. For
ter minister TO Spain, which position he
held from February, 1883, till March,
1885, when he resigned and returned to
the United States, after having nego-
tiated an important commercial treaty
with the Spanish government. This
treaty caused much discussion and was
strongly opposed in the senate. That
body failed TO confirm and IL was after
ward withdrawn by President Cleve-
land for reconsideration. Some weeks
later Gen. Foster returned to Spain
with instructions TO reopen negotia-
tions for modified treaty, His mission,
however, was unsuccessful and he re-
maincd abroad but few months.
Gen. Foster was recently name d
as one of the counsel for the United
States in the approaching conference of
the Behring sea arbitrators, among
whom the United States will be repre-
sented by Justice John NJ. Harlan of
the supreme court and Senator John T.
Morgan, of Alabama. The appoint
ment gave general satisfaction. He is
learned in international comfy and is
thoroughly familiar with the diplomat
&c history OF this country.

This month was marked by low
barometer, high wind velocity and light
rainfall, II was the clearest and
driest June or our 25 years record.
The deficient rainfall had no disastrous
effect on field crops on account of the

of smal! fruits were severely affected
by the lack Of rain.

Ell RENO, Ok, July 5.-An exhibition
OF heroism was witnessed in El Reno.
Mr. Smith was cooking in Lemaster
Bros restaurant, when an overturned
lamp fell upon him, covering him with
oil. With great presence of mind he
smothered the flames in the building,
and calling for help, burst open door
and rushed into the street. Before
his clothing could be torn from him
he was so badly burned that no
hope of saving his life exists. The res
taurant was in the heart of the town,
surrounded on all sides by pine build
ings, and the wind was blowing gale.

Heavy Work Ahead-The Shadow of the
Silver BIll Worries Congress.
WASHINGTON, July 5.-There is heavy
work ahead for congress this week
The routine that must be disposed of Is
important and interesting enough in
itself, but impending over all is the
shadow Of that liveliest of corpses, the
silver bill, which will not stay buried,
but turns up in n new guise at this busy
moment In congress TO destroy the cal
culations Of political leaders and dis
turb the peace of mind Of members who
felt sure that they had succeeded in
avoiding an open expression of opinion
and direct vote on an embarrassing
question.
In the senate the proceedings prom
Use To be largely of a routine character
and will concern the appropriation bills
principally. Only one of these bills,
the agricultural has finally passed
both houses and the others are in con-
ference. Ordinarily this would be con-
sidered very satisfactory state of af-
fairs, but in the present case the differ
enccs between the two houses are ex-
trcme and the spirit of obstinacy which
has been exhibited on both sides
threatens TO defer indefinitely final
action upon the remaining appropria-
tion bills.
Probably the most of the time of the
senate during the week will be given
up TO the consideration Of conference
reports, interspersed with some calen-
dar business and from discussion and
possibly action on the silk bill, which

The glorious Fourth unfortunately
this year falls upon suspension day and
in Difference TO universal patriotism the
house declines to meet. But not
to surrender the advantages which
may be derived by the house
under its rules the committee on
rules will report u resolution dcsignat-
ing Wednesday or Thursday as suspen-
sion day. Whether this resolution will
be adopted or not is doubtful. 1t being
an open secret that the democrats in
tend to pass the tin plate and other
tariff bills under suspension the repub-
licans, with their steadfast purpose to
defeat those measures, will resort to
filibustering to defeat the making
OF such an order. II either

On Sunday last H. S, Tisdale, who
appeared to DO of unsOund nina for
some time past aud who is living with
his brother, Wallace Tisdale, in this
city made an effort at ending his own
lite by cutting his throat, or rather
his neck with razor cutting u
deep cash just below his ear. On
Tuesday he was given a hearing before
the probate court which adjudged hun
insane. lie will probably be sent to
the asylum in few days for treatment,
Those who knew him number of
years since pronounce him "A straight
forward, intelligent and steady young
man, and it is indeed sad to see man
just In the prime Of life, become a
mental wreck. 1t is said that nnan-
cial difficulties and love affair In
which he was disappointed are the
cause Of it.
