William RonriSe Cochran.

Sundays issue OF the New York Herald
contains IN excellent portrait and n first
rate three column biographical sketch OF
BoUREE CocHRAN, whom il speaks OF as
beginning life rs "a penniless Irish boy
The speech of the Chicago convention
was made by Mr.. COCHRAN. This is
unaGestionable. Mr.. MEREDITH and Mr.
GoRDoN, of the Virginia delegation,
both Of whom were original CLEvE-
LAND men. have referred to it rs an
effort OF SURPRISING power. And yet Mr..
CocuRAN spoke to hostile audience when
the convention had been nine hours in
continuous session, and argued in wholly
hopeless cause.
lie is a big. burly man, with big head
and big but pleasant voice. Every per-
son in the wigwam could hear every word
that be said: yet he addressed the Vir-
ginia delegation in hotel-room of little
more than the average size and his voice
there was at no time unpleasantly loud or
harsh. His presence is impressive and his
words fit into his sentences like well-cut
mosaics into rich works of art.
Mr.. Cochran was born in County Sligo,
Ireland. and was educated for the priest
hood at Lille, France. Having concluded
not TO enter clerical life he came to this
country TO seek his fortune and went to
work for A. +. STEWART. but as soon
as possible left the dry-goods store and
went TO teaching school. and meanwhile
studied law. He enjoyed the friendship
of Judge A. b. TAPpEN. whose library he
used and who introduced him into poll
ties. Mr.. CocHRAN now receives yearly a
fortune in legal fees, has great power in
the Tammany organization, and stands
among the very foremost orators of this

Homestead. Pennsylvania.

Homestead has really been put on war
footing. C,aSRoIE's works there are
guarded day and night by men and pick
eted with what NAV be called internal
machines 10 keep out all intrudcrs,
The managers say that they do not pro-
pose 70 resume operations until the 18th
instant, but the locked, out men do not
credit this statement. and are Of the opin-
ion that 1t ha. been put forth 80 rs TO give
the managers time to gather up aud BRING
into the works non.unioD men.
The old hands have however, taken such
precautions as will make II next TO impossi-
bic for any man TO enter the works Of the
Carnegie Steel Company without their
knowledge. They have the establishment
eneircled by line of pickets. and all the
roads leading 10 the town are likewise
watched. SO 1t IL evident that big and
bitter struggle has been entered upon
Numerous other mills in that section
have also shut down, but well-informed
persons doubt the story that " nine-tenths
of the rolhng-mills OF this country are
now idle" This Is thought to be au exag-
geration. One-tcnth of the mills could
not supply the current demand for iron,
and il Is said to be well known that owing
20 the very low prices obtainable for their
products most of the mills have only been
running Of late TO fiji orders.
On Sunday q number OF the pastors OF
Homestead preached sermons counseltng
the workiDemen 20 bepetient and forbear-
ing and in no event to break the peace.
\ rumor came over the wires last night
that national politicians" had under
taken 10 mediate between the Carnegie
Steel Company and its employees. If this
is not true now it will DO true later on.

Sambo Too Powerful.

II has been said over and over again that
the delegates from the southern States
negroes and the representatives of ne
groes-o enabled Mr.. HARRISON to withstand
the assaults of the BLAISE men and secured
for him nomination for reelection to the
presidency. In other words, MIR. HARRISON
is rotton-borough nominee. II is not
strange that the Republicans of Republi-
can States should look upon this fact with
some degree Of dissatisfaction. At any
rate. at the last meeting of the Republican
National Committee resolution was intro
duced proposing that in future national
conventions each delegate must represent
1000 votes. Had the rule proposed in this
resolution been in force at Minneapolis
Mr.. BLAINE would have been nominated.
The Philadelphia Inquirer says:
"Ohio, instead Of her 10 delegates, would have
had So; Illinois would have had %, instead Of
AZ; Mississippi 4, instead OF 49, Nevada /, in-
stead az O; Alabama g, instead OF %. In short,
New York would gain 81 delegates, Ohio IL.
PENNSYLVANIA IL, and 70 on--eleven northern
states gaining 30. ten northern States losing 20
making a net gain bynorthern States OF 80
In a word. TO adopt such q resolution
would be TO change the mode of constitu;
ting Republican national conventions and
make them "a grand consolidated central
government instead OF government of
States. This might do for Republican ma
tional conventions, but not for Demo-
cratic

The House and Silver.


Reliable Washington correspondents say
that the Republicans OF tho House OF Re
representatives. are waiting for hint from the
White House before they will say what
they Will do about the free-coinage bill.
II the President wishes an opportunity TO
veto the measure II is probable that the
House Republicans will. as far as possible
without putting themselves on record for
the bill, help those Democrats who wish TO
pass IL.
General Tracey. Of Albany, who probably
did more than any other member TO defeat
the silver bill when IL was formerly before
the House. is again at work against 1t. Tie
Is q calm, shrewd. systematic organizer.
He was one of MIR. CLxvELAND's frienos who
replied 70 BouRKE COCHRAN at the meeting
of the Virginia delegation at Chicago, and
who without making any attempt at ora
tory impressed all present as man capa-
bic of handling great public questions well.
II is very doubtful indeed If majority
of the Democratic members of the House
can be gotten TO favor cloture rule,
without which--or some ingenious equiva-
lent-no vote can be reached at this
session; but Just here the Repuhli-
cans can. If they will, help the free-silyer
Democrats.
The whole aspect of this question in its
relation 10 the pending canvass suggests
that the Democrats of the House should
have conference. and il possible settle
upon line of action. II they divide in
tho open House and allow the Republi-
cans 10 assume the management OF affairs
there they may regret il very much.
Doubtless there are members who would
refuse 10 allow a conference to bind their
votes on such question, inasnuch a. they
were elected AS free-coinage men. but who
after hearing Arguments might conclude
that this is not the best time TO attempt 10
pass a free-silver bin. Per coHird, the
Democratic opponents Of the bill might
ind from q discussion that II would be
wise 70 let their brethren who are on the
other side OF this question have vote.
All that we ask IL for the Democrats to
I try 10 act together and TO remember that
the Republicans stand ready to embroil
them in trouble.
A staff correspondent Of the Boston
>clols, who talked with Mr.. CLEVELAND at
irey Gables on Saturday. telegraphs his
paper that the ex-President will not
issue q public remonstranco' TO Congress
on this question; nor will he take the
indirect course OF writing private letter
with the purpose Of having II published"
bat that he will say what no thinks when
be formally accepts the nomination. and

ssto bic feeling on the subject "it isreason-
able TO look for straightforward action by
the Democratic House in accordance with
the principles OF the Democratic platform.
The platform Is perfectly plain; let the
congressman stand by it,"
Probably these are the views OF Mr..
CLEVELAND. and II 30 they afford addi-
tional ground for believing that Demo
cratic conference is desirable TO put the
party in the House upon plane OF action
which will enable 1t TO deal satisfactorily
with this question ut this time.
