NOT SATISFIED YET.

Republican Demagogues Preparing to Fur
ther Air Their Alleged Grievance Againt
Ambassador Bayard.
washington. December 12.-Accord-
ing to the opinion of two or three proba-
BILE members Of the House Committee
on Foreign Affairs there is a strong pos
sibility that when the committee comes
IN consider the matter of Ambassador
Bayard's two speeches, it may recon-
mend the action proposed by Mr.. Calls
resolution.
That resolution proposes that the
House call upon the President TO in
form il what steps. if any, he has takeE
to recall or censure Mr. Bayard. Ihe
question Of impeachment IS not before
the House or the committee in any way
Notwithstanding some apprehension on
that part. for when Mr.. Barrett's resolu-
ton was disposed of, the words "by i'm
neschment or otherwise" were stricken
out leaving a simple direction TO the
committee TO report to the House what
action should be taken in the premises.
It is now conceded by the Republicans
that the proposition TO impeach was not
intended seriously. but was merely a
parliamentary move 10 secure debate on
the ambassadors conduct. In case the
President should reply that he has not
communicated with the ambassador.
there IS some sentiment that the House
should censure him and it is suggested
that this might be done either by sep
arate resolution or in connection with
the appropriation for the ambassadors
salary when the diplomatic appropria-
ton bill comes before the House.

day at the Federation of Labor Conven-
ton was the approval OF a proposition

ces in Chicago.
1t was announced that an agreement
had been effected between the boot and

American Boot and Shoe Workers Union
Of Chicago, whereby the latter will use
the label. THIS meas IN all probability
that the Two VIII be combined as one.
President Mcbride introduced Mrs.
Mary Burt, president of the w. c. T. u,
who addressed the convention.
The special committee appointed to
bring about a settlement of Chicago
difficulties recommended that a commit
tee Of two of the executive council go
to Chicago and settle the difficulties.

and an effort was made to have the mat
ter aired before the convention. After

citing that written constitutions are not

table by a vote OF 81 TO 10. The con-
Yent:on then adjourned until tomorrow.

Columbus, o., December 12.-The long
and useful career Of Judge Alien G..
Thurman came TO a close this after
noon at 1:15 o'clock at his residence,
corner of Rich street and Washington
avenue. The end was peaceful in the
extreme. and the soul Of the great man
left the earthly habitation without q
sign Of physical distress.
AT the instant of dissolution and
some hours before, Judge Thurman had
been lying i'm an unconscious condition.
He passed merely from sleep temporal
to sleep eternal and the change was
hardly noticeable even TO the loved ones
who surrounded his bedside
Ia the midst of the volumes Of
knowledge ne priced so dearly and amid
the scenes where he had spent so many
pleasant hours Of his happy old age,
the vital spark took wings from the
image Of clay.
Judge Thurman died i'm his beloved
library, which looks towards the setting
sun. Shortly auer his fall, several

The local market this week again pre-

cases are able to provide for needs
through the first quarter of the new
year. Of course, there has been no big
business done so far into the future but
purchasers are taking advantage Of all
such opportunities. Bessemer steel

congressional funerals. His attention
hed first been called to this question
by charges made in the newspapers. and
after investigating the matter, he had
concluded that the system now pursued

He instanced the obseQuies of the
late Senator Plumb. in which he had
participated, and said that while the
cost Of that funeral had amounted 10
over $4,000, the average value of an
American farm, he had learned that the
amount fell below the average.
Mr.. PETER declared that the expendi-
lures on account of cost had increased
TO 1852. The last thirteen burials OF
the seventy-three which had occurred
from the Senate had cost more than all
the other sixty. OF the 107 Senators
who had died while in service, the ex,
