Investigating the Ohio Factory Inspector
iSpsc,sl 9slsorlrn TO the Register.

COLUMBUS, O., May 5.-Governor Nc
Kinley returned from the East last night,
and this morning began to investigate the
charges of overcharging that have been
made against one Of his appointments, w.
z. Mcdonald, State Inspector of Shops
and Factories. A suspicious circum-
stance is, that though Mcdonald
knew the Governor was going
to inquire into the matter he absented
himself from the city. Three Deputy In
spectors, Davis, Ellis and Armstrong were
called before the Governor and Attorney
General and asked for statements as to
their travelingexpenses. The result was
not made public but the statements are
said not to have agreed with the vouchers
of Mcdonald.

IN trying to get on both sides OF the
silver fence the Republican Club League
accomplished a "split" calculated to
excite the envy Of q latter-day ballet
dancer. II says:
We arraign the Democratic party for its
hostility and treachery 10 the cause Of hon
est money. and endorse the Republican po-
sition in favor Of the repeal of the socalled
Sherman law.
1t was sherman law" that demone-
tized silver in the first place. 1t is the
present Sherman law whose hostility
and treachery to the cause of honest
money" has brought the country into its
present financial difficulties. Both laws
are Republican laws from the ground
up. The Republican position" in
favor Of the repeal Of this Republican
law is something new and startling.

Their places indefinitely. That is. the fact
thh1 Republican fOurth-class postnasters

hereafter be regarded as sufficient reason
for putting Democrats in their places IN

We can hardly believe the Postofiee
Department intends to pursue any such
policy. If the civil service rules are to
include fourth class postmasters, why
not, also, third, second and FIRST class
postmasters, and every other govern

WOOL MANUFACTURERS.
THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
MEETS AT NEW YORK.
Protest Against Congress Making Any
Change in the Present Tariff Law
Relating to That Industry.
snecial to the RrcoRn.uNrox


NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-The National AS
sociation Wool Manufacturers began its
twenty-eighth annual meeting here to-
day. President Whitman declined re-
election, and Rufus S. Frost was chosen.
S. d. North of Boston was chosen Secre-
tary.
Resolutions were adopted which de-
clare the belief of the manufacturers that
the existing tariff has proved advantage
GUS to the wool-growers, manufacturers
and consumers of woolen goods The
proposed economic change is not in re-
sronse to any demand from the industry
represented, eighty per cent. of the
manufacturers of the country having
Joined in protesting against the passage
of the free wool bill now pending in
Congress, and which protest is re-
affirmed.
The attention of Congress is invited to
the fact that woolen goods are manu.
factured nearly year in advance of the
season for whose wear they are adapted.
and in consequence any law simulta-
neously removing the duty on wool will
compel the whole domestic production Of
the season manufactured from duty paid
wool to compete in markets with FOREIGN
goods manufactured from free wool. The
Springer bill discriminates doubly in this
respect, by admitting at reduced rates
simultaneously with the repeal Of wool
duties all foreign goods imported prior to
its passage and held in bond. A year
should elapse after the wool duties dis
appear before compensatory duties are
repealed.
The resolutions ask the hands of Con-
gress most careful examination of all
conditions surrounding the industry in
this and other countries; asserts that ex-
perience has shown that simple ad val
orem duties are invariably accompanied
by systematic undervaluation. and urge
upon Congress the importance of main
tanning specific form of duty, or some
part of it, in the schedule.
They protest against any measure of
tariff revision which singles ont a par
ticular industry like the wool
manufacturers for reductions of duty
which are not applied impartially
and simultaneous to all in
dustries. The Customs Administration
Act OF 1890 provided for the first time a
uniform, impartial and effective admin
istration OF the tariff law, with an expert
tribunal for the determination of disputed
rates and classification, and the retention
of this law in substantially its present
form is urged.

TOPEKA (Kas.), Jan. I2.-During the
roll-call by the Republican House this
afternoon the Democratic members an
nounced that they had held aloof as long
as 1t was proper for them to do so, but
now, believing the Republican House
was the only properly organized one,
theyawould recognize it as such. The
announcement was received with wild
demonstrations by the Republicans. The
Populists are very much depressed.
The addition of three Democrats to the
Republican membership give the Repub-
licans sixty-five members, a majority of
five, composed of sixty-one Republicans,
one Independent (Wilson) and three
Democrats.
Shortly after the reading of the Gov
ernor's message, in which he recognized
the Populist House, both houses ad-
journed until tomorrow.
The Republicans in caucus decided to
assemble as usual in the morning and
| await developments. The Senate has de-
| cided to recognize the Populist House in
the morning.
Mandamus proceedings against Secre-
tary. OF State Osborne were begun this
evening in the Supreme Court to compel

at their headquarters, as they seem to

to do is to whip into line the Dixon men,
but those who know Marcus Dalv's

The angry robbers applied torch to
the shed. and the people, in a panic.
rushed into the temple for refuge. The
main entrance of the temple caught fire
from the fierce heat of the burning shed
and over / 400 men, women and children
were either burned, smothered or
trampled under foot. Most of the fatali-
ties resulted from suffocation, as the wind
drove the smoke into the temple.
At the time of writing the roll of the
mission numbered 1879. and may be
some of these were burned beyond fecop-
ton. The disaster was the worst that
has occurred in South China for several
years.
