HALE yEyER BEEN CONSULTED,
Republicans of tho House Out in the Col
 on tho Tarir Hill.

Washington. July 6.-"Have the re. publican members of the ways and means committee q program regarding the tariff bill when 1t reaches the house7" asked a reporter of ex- Speaker Reed this morning.
 What program could the republicans have?" asked Mir. Reed in reply. We are only nominally members of the ways and means committed. We have never been consulted regarding the formation of the bill We have had nothing to do with 1t. presuppose the work that will be done from this time on will be on the back stairs. as was formerly the case. The republican members of the committee will not know what Is going on till the demo- crats have decided upon their plan of action. Some of the democratic mem
 bers of the house say provisions of dissatisfied with certain provisions of the bill; but they lack both the pluck and steadfastness of purpose necessary to carry out their opposition"
 This was apparently all that Mir. Reed cared to say regarding the bill. inasmuch as an questions relating to the measure. for the present at least, are a matter of speculation. From his remarks. however. 1t was obvious that he believes that the bill as 1t passed the senate will be the one to which the house will substantially agree.
 Strong pressure is being brought to bear upon the democratic members of the ways and means committee to agree in conference to the changes made in the tariff bill by the senate, exempting beneficial and mutual aid societies from the operations of the income tax. Hundreds of petitions bearing upon the subject have been already received by Chairman Wilson.

i SUGGESTION OR TWO
Made Yesterday by Number of We'll
 Known Business Men.

Known Business Men.
 A number of our most prominent citizens in talking about the big fire at the City market yesterday made the suggestion that the railroad authorities in rebuilding there erect comfortable sub-passenger station in place of the old market. The idea further advanced was that this was called for by the size and importance of New Haven and its continual rapid growth. They urged that in all large cities there were such additional railroad stations where the accommodation trains stopped for pas- sengers. The present union passenger depot is already too small for its uses and new station where accommoda- tion trains could stop would be a great public convenience. They also broach- ed the idea that the railroad company cover the cut all along through the cen. tral or business portion of the city and build thereon, thus keeping the trains out Of sight of the horses and utilisins tpes vacant gpaSs for hull ding ppE1oseg

New England Receivers Certificates.

New York, July 5.-The statement was made to-day that the New England reorganization committee, or friends in it's interest, took $330,O of the $5OO,- 900 6per cent. receivers certificates, authorized by the court. This money goes to pay the coupon on the first mortgage bonds which was due January l, 1894. Provision for this interest had to be made, as the holders of the first mortgage are entitled to foreclose six months after default, which was July l. It is evident from the fact that the re- organization committee has taken these certificates that they were issued in the interests of the reorganization, and that the plan, when it becomes operative, will provide to take them up.
 The certificates are not dated, but are issued in the form of a temporary certificate, which, it is said, is subject to call of the reorganization commit tee,

cLEYE1AND,S SHARP REPZY.

He Answers Governor Altgeldt's Telegram Protesting Against Troops. Washington, July 6.-The president Secretary Lamont, Attorney General Olney, Postmaster General Bisseu and General Schofleld remained at the White House until nearly midnight.
 Many telegrams were received and sent during the course of the evening. When the conference broke up Secre- tary Lamont announced that there was nothing to make public except the tele- gram from Governor Altgeldt and the presidents response thereto.
 Governor Altgeldt's telegram protests against the presence of United States troops in Chicago.
 The presidents reply follows:
 Federal troops were sent to Chicago in strict accordance with the consti- tuition and laws of the United States upon the demand of the postoffice de- partment that obstruction of the, mails should be removed, and upon the rep- resentations of the judicial officials of the United States that process of the federal courts could not be executed through the ordinary means, and upon abundant proof that conspiracy existed against commerce between the states.
 "To meet these conditions which are clearly within the province of federal authority the presence of federal troops in the city of Chicago was deemed not only proper but necessary, and there has been no intention of thereby interfering with the plain duty of the local authorities to preserve the peace of the city. ..,9 =,
 Grover Cleveland"
 In his telegram to President Cleveland Governor Altgeldt in part says: e'.
 q am advised that you have ordered federal troops to go into service in llli- nois. Surely the facts have not been correctly presented to you in this case or you would not have taken this step, for it is entirely unnecessary and, as it seems to me-. unjustiflable. The state of Illinois is not only able to take care of itself, but stands ready to-day to furnish the federal government any assistance it may need elsewhere.
 ''So far as have been advised the local officials have been able to handle the situation. But if any assistance were needed the state stood ready to furnish one hundred men for every one man required. The federal govern ment has been applied to by men, who had political and selfish motives for wanting to ignore the state government. In two instances the United. States marshal for the southern district of IT, linois applied for assistance to enable him to enforce the processes of the United States laws, and troops were promptly furnished him. The law has been thoroughly executed and every man guilty of violating 1t during the strike has been brought to justice.
 "At present some of our railroads are paralyzed not by reason of Instructions, but because they cannot get men to l operate their trains. It is not soldiers that the railroads need so much as it is l men to operate the trains. The con ditions do not exist which bring the l case within the federal scope. There have been g few local disturbances, but | nothing that seriously interferes with the administration .0f jus .i1a or that nonld not easily M qs ri 5A

GLORIES OF THE CIRCUS.
Immense Crowds Attend the Sells
Brothers Show Performances.

The first circus OF the season came to
town yesterday, and the small boy thought
summer was surely here. Sells Brothers
have been in the circus business many
years. and this season they are the first TO
bring the circus within the reach OF every
small boy who has only p cents. and yet
keep the entertainment up TO the standard.
The show exhibited on the grounds west
of the river, and three thousand or more
went under the big white tents in the aft
ernoon, over ten thousand being there in
the evening. The parade in the morning
was a very creditable one. The collection
or animals was excellent, and numbered
a family of interesting lion cubs, three
males and two females. Besides. there were
some monkeys. very human, a pen of os-
triches, elephants. camels, h~ippopotami and
several magnificent lions and tigers, not to
mention the usual run of leopards and Wild
cats. The seals did a turn in the perform
once and surprised people.
The ring performances are excellent, and
included yesterday many fine speciality per-
formers. Three rings were lively at all
times. The bareback riding of both men
and women was up TO the standard, while
the trapeze and tumbling acts were a little
better than those usually seen. There was
Juggling, ladder work, bicycle riding and
features galore. The Roman statuary was
a good feature of the show.

A PRODIGAL IN THE STREETS.
He Ran Away from Home and Was Too
Proud to Return.

Patrolman Leppert yesterday afternoon
arrested Charles Galloway, aged sixteen
years, on a charge of vagrancy. He was
begging for something to eat on West
Washington street 1t was seen by the
boys actions and his clothes, which were
of the best quality. but much worn, that
he was of a good family. at first he re-
fused to give an account of himself, but at
last stated that his father resided on
North Tennessee street in this city. He
said that about a month ago he ran away
from home because his father persisted
I'm making him attend school. This was
much against the boys principles, and he
left and has since been tramping the coun-
try. He beat his way on a freight train to
Detroit, and from there he visited a great
part Of Illinois. including Chicago, and
Wisconsin. He got tired of wandering
around and decided to play the role of
the prodigal, and returned TO this city yes
terday morning on a freight train. He
was nearly starved, and was begging for
something when arrested. He said that
he longed TO get home. but his bride was
too much for him to go In his dilapidated
condition to his home and ask for for
giveness. The police will inform his par
ents, and the chances are that Charles
will be duly reinstated to-day in his home,
a much penitent and wiser boy.

and spend the evening. or Mr.. Richter and
his wife would spend the evening with the
Doctor. The evenings were spent in various
games. in which each man would have the
others wife as his partner. After a while
each became somewhat infatuated with the
others wife, and this led TO a jealousy
among the women, which finally ripened
into an open rupture in each household.
The women would taunt their husbands
with caring more for the other than they
did Tor their own wife. Mr.. Richter was
very prosperous at this time, while the Doc
tor had few patients. and. consequently. a
small income. Trouble was brewing for
some time before an open rupture came,
am then Ii was in the form of a PROPOSE
ton from the Doctor to trade wives with
Mr.. Richter. provided he could get $1,000 to
boot. Mr.. Richter was willing TO accept, IL
the Doctor would agree TO go TO California
with Mrs. Richter and keep her there, also
taking their young son VIII. or billy"
as he is generally known, with them. The
proposition was made known TO all con-
cerned and was accepted by them. DIR. Bo-
miller and Mrs. Richter then went West.
accompanied by Mr.. Richter's son. Divorces
were secured by both OF the women. and
the two couples were legally married. Mrs.
Richter No. !, after a years absence. came
back To the city with her son, who has
since lived with his father.

RICHTER'S INJURIES FATAL.

and formerly street commissioner, died at
his home. at 10 o'clock last night, from in
3uries received In a runaway accident April
n. The coroner took his ante-mortem state
ment yesterday morning. and will endeavor
10 locate the persons who carelessly caused
the runaway MIR. Richter was driving
DOWN Morris street, near Meridian, when
he was approached by a wagon containing
three young men, who were shouting and
making considerable noise. His horse be-
came frightened and ran away, striking a
telegraph pole and throwing Mr.. Richter
20 the ground, causing what has proved
10 be fatal injuries.
Mr.. Richter has been a familiar figure in
the southeastern part OF the city for nearly
twenty-five years. He was formerly a lead
ing street contractor of the city, but of re-
cent years has not given much attention
TO business. having acquired a competence
from his work in earlier years. About ff-
teen years ago he was a party TO a very
novel proceeding. DR.. Bomiller was a near
nelghbor and very intimate friend of Mr..
Richter's family. Never an evening passed
that found either family alone. The Doctor
and his wife would call at Richter's house
