seq Trade Reuielo, December l, 1891:
1.-The Merchants Retail Commercial
Agency, Of Chicago, achieved a sub
stantial victory in Allentown, Pa, last
Tuesday. A branch was organized
some months ago in that city, and a
beat brought suit against one of the
members who had him listed as a de-
linquent. The Chicago Agency defend
ed the suit, defraying all expenses.
The plaintiff claimed damages because,
having been listed, he was refused
credit by another merchant. The
Court did not permit the case to go to
the jury but granted non-suit, hold
ing that the law had not been trans
crossed; that no citizen could be dam
aged by a merchant refusing him credit;
that 1t was optional for any person to
extend credit; and that merchants had
a legal right to combine to protect
themselves against the delinquent
class"

ANOTHER SURPRISE
Col. William Morrison Looms Up
as a Presidential Candidate.
THE STATE COMMITTEE MEETS
1t is Claimed 10 Win Have the Support Of
the Solid sOuth-IllinOis Will Present
Him az a Candidate.

CHICAGO, May 23.-Colonnl William r.
Morrison. chairman of the interstate COM
MERGE commission and for many years
chairman of the Ways and Means commit
tee OF the House of Representatives, ha
suddenly forged to the front as some
what formidable presidential candidate,
and his friends assert that he will be pre-
seDted to the national convention as the
choice of the Illinois delegation, in case
Cleveland is not nominated by storm.
The meeting of the new state commit
tee here today was productive of net
a little surprise when the presidential
preference was canvassed Forty-eight
delegates from Illinois to the convention
are instructed to favor the nomination OF
Palmer should it be deemed expedient to
come west for candidate. 1t appears GER
tain, however, that Colonel Morrison and
not Palmer is the choice of very decided
majority of the Illinois delegates, and after
the primary ballot for Cleveland and COM
pimentary one tor Palmer, it is the inten-
ton of the majority to throw the solid sup
port of Illinois for Morrison.
That gentleman was in the city today and
was very busy receiving visitors and con-
ferring with political leaders from Rll parts
of the state. He had nothing to say, but
his friends enthusiastically insisted that be
would receive the support of Missouri Ar
kansas, Texas, Kentucky, and indeed nearly
all the solid south whenever Illinois pre-
| sents his name.

TEST OF AMERICAN ARMOR.
1t Is Found Superior to the Foreign Article
Result Of the Test.

-
WASHINGTON, May 23.-The thickest
piece of armor ever manufactured In this
country was successfully tested at the
Indian Head proving grounds Saturday.
One of the 14-inch nickel steel diagonal
plates for the Indiana, the first Of the
battle ships armor plates completed by the
Bethlehem iron works, twenty diagonal
plates for the battle ships Indiana and
Massachusetts, aggregating 500 tons and
representing $500, 600 in value, will at once
be accepted as the result OF the test. The
result shows conclusively the ability of
American armor workers to supply armor
plate of the highest quality.
The conditions were more severe than
any tests imposed by foreign countries.
Under the terms Of the contract the proieo-
tile might go nearly through the slate and
backing and be accepted if no serious cracks
develope None of the three shots fired
succeeded in getting far enough into the
slate to show any backing Three shots
were fired near the middle region Of the
plate, three points impact forming equilat
eral triangle. All three shots rebounded,
one of them back to the muzzle of the gun,
distance of 1875 feet. the deepest penetrs-
ton being fourteen inches, the other two
two inches or so less.
Only few slight cracks Immediately sur
rounding the burr of each oriice were
made. a ten-inch gun was used in the test.
Two of the projectiles were drst imported,
the third made by the same process in this
country. The latter was thrown out en-
tirely uninjured, while one Of the imported
broke in two, thus showing a splendid rec
ord for the American projectile as well as
American plate The proiectlle weighed
fifty pounds, a powder charge Of forty
pounds, giving striking velocity of LAO
| feet to the second.

F'inan of Creek Locks, this county, was
buried yesterday. She had suffered sew
eral years with cancer, and month ago
was taken to Brooklyn 10 visit Rev,
Father Adams, of whose relics and faith
cure she had read.
Mrs. Finan remained in Brooklyn about
week and paid the customary three visits
to Father Adams. She thought the treat
ment benefited her and returned home
with bright hopes of recovery. Friends
and relatives came from miles around to
congratulate her, as local physicians had
given her no encouragement, but had babe
her prepare for the worst. The relief,
however, was not OF long duration, for
Mrs. Finan died this week. the funeral
taking place yesterday. At least dozen
persons who had heard OF her supposed re-
markable cure went to see Father Adams
and he treated them for various ailments.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Disr

Especial to THE HERALD-Examlner Dispatch.l
NEW York. May 23-The World today
claims the highest authority for making
the semi-ofEcial announcement that Mr.
Blaine is TO be nominated at Minneapolis
next month, whether he consents to run or
not. The decision to nominate Mr.. Blaine
in spite of anything he may say TO the con-
trary, was definitely made after the con-
ference between General Clarkson and Mr..
Platt in this city Friday. The proposition
was first seriously discussed over two
, weeks ago at a conference between Quay,
Cameron, Platt and other anti-Harrison
gentlemen have been in communication
with prominent Republican leaders
throughout the country.
The idea, it is said, has met with very
general approval. The conference at
General Ayers house in Detroit last Wed
nesday night was for the purpose OF fur-
Their considering this matter.
''All that can prevent Blaine's nomina-
ton now,n said close friend OF Mr..
Platts to-day, sis his death or total dis
ability. Nothing that he can say in ad-
vance of or during the convention will
stop it. The convention
WILL NOMINATE HIM ANYHOW.
He must decline an actual tender of the
nomination, and nothing short of it if he
Goes not wish to run. We do not believe
he will do that. II he does, he will be open
to charge of cowardice, and he must also
bear the blame for the defeat of the party
II they loose the campaign with any othel
man. There IS a universal demand fol
Blaine all over the country, and we be
ieve that his nomination is equivalent Il
an election. We recognized that it would
be almost Impossible to get MIR. Blaine tt
give US any definite encouragement, anC
so we have decided to act on our own re
sponsibility."
Mr.. Clarkson, the chairman of the Re-
publican national committee, called on ex
Secretary Platt yesterday afternoon ant
spent several hours in consultation witt
him. 1t was well understood that Mr.
Platt and Mr.. Clarkson went over tin pc
itical situation and reviewed the outlool
from their point of view. Since his ar
rival here MIR. Clarkson has become al
outsposen opponent Of President Harrison
His preference Is Blaine, but he will sup
port Sherman or almost any one as agains
the president. Mr. Clarkson INTENDED 60
ing to Washington tomorrow, but changes
his mind tonight when he learned of Mr.
Blaine's expected arrival in this CITY, MI
blaine telegraphed for rooms at the FIT
Avenue hotel and was booked to arrive las
night. A later dispatch was received fror
Mr.. Blaine saying he would not come VI
til tomorrow night.

A FIGHT REPORTED
Between Government Troops and Yaqui
Indians

Indians.
RHGNIx, Ariz., May ga telegram
from Hermosillo Mex, says an engage
mept took place between government
troops and band of Yaqui Indians near
Los Hires, on the Rio Yaquin, on the 18th
inst, but the account is suppressed by the
officials. A report just received says that
number of Yaquis were killed and the re-
mainder dispersed, and owing to the noun
famous condition of the country the mill
tary was unable to follow. Unofficial reports
brought by American mining men state
that seven Mexican privates were killed
and two officers, including Commanding
Officer Zepata, wounded. This is the first
engagement since the last late pronuncia-
mento of determination. aud both parties
are preparing for a vigorous and lengthy
conflict.
There are between twenty and thirty
thousand Yaquis in the state of Sonora,
the greater part of whom have assumed an
aggressive attitude. They are poorly
armed, however, and as q rule refuse open
battle, preferring ambuscades and guerrilla
warfare.
