CLEVELAND AND ARBITRATION.
He Makes an Important Proposition
TO Lord Salisbury.


TO Lord Salisbury.
CHICAGO, April 26.-The Times
Herald's Washington special says:
Lord Salisbury now has before
him for consideration an informal
proposition from President Cleve-
land of treaty of general arbi-
tration of all matters in dispute
between the United States and
Great Britain, and all disputes
between either of these powers
and any other power in which
the good Offices of the other Gov
ernment has been rendered.
The meaning of this is that the
President has offered to the
British Premier a general scheme
of arbitration designed to embrace
the Venezuelan question, but
without reference thereto by
name, thus affording a method in
which Lord Salisbury may easily
reach settlement of that vexing
dispute without too directly hum
bling his pride. To this proposal,
made some time ago, after a series
of fruitless negotiations along
other lines, no reply has yet been
received.

WHY GOMBOSSY LEVIED.

THE CONTROLLER CONSIDERED HIS CLAIM IL
LEGAL AND REJECTED 1T.
Referring 10 the act OF a deputy sheriff in levyins
unon two portrajts In the Governors Room OF the
civ Hall to satisfy a judgment against the city
which Controller Fitch refused to pay. the Con-
troller said Yesterday by way OF explanation;
The circumstances were these: The DOCK Con-
mlssoners gave Max Gombossy an order without
advertisement for painting the % IN, Inc words
''at the lowest market price on the printed iorHI
were changed by striking out the words io"est
market" so TO make II read at the pre- vi
ssAp J'hen while this work was gong on tney
gave Combossy another similar order TO paint a
portion OF the inside of tho same premises on an.
other order FOR $500, In which the WORDS loves,

then again a few days later they gave Gombossy
another order for the rest OF the inside. on which
again the words Lowest market price had been
stricken out. for 81 As the total amouhted 70
over 81 600 / could not pay the bill without volat
ing the law Nothing except an actual levy and
proposed sale OF city property Will JUSTIFY me cph
iroller In paying bills so incurreu, any o'her
The pictures levied upon to satisfy Gombossy's
claim were those OF Governor Washington Hunt
and Governor Edwin d. Morgan They were not
removed from the Governors Room. as has been
printed in some alleged newspapers Tho levylng
upon portraits In the City Hall has long been the
ston pursued by the Sherifs Office TO collect
Judgments against the city.
Why Governors Hunt and Morgan. one Wing
and the other a Republican, should have been the
subject OF levy has not been explained, except
upon the theory that the deputy-sherlH was a
Democrat and would not Insult tho memory OF a
Democratic Governor by submitting his portrait 10
such a proceeding. Investigation proved that this
explanation rested good grounds. The officer

Colonel william Seward. although a thorough

matters pertaining to the 9th Regiment, OF which
he has been the commander since 1882. conducted
In such a way that there shall be friction or
misunderstanding. But several occurrences In the
command have brought 1t prominently before the
public within a short time. and now. when all was
thought to be calm and serene. three members OF
the stan have resigned because an officer whom
they dislike has been appointed az Assistant In
spector OF Rife Practice. They are Reglmental
Adjutant Godfrey A. s. Wieners. Battalion Adju-
tant william Helry Truman and Resimental
Quartermaster Dana Baldwin Pratt The resigna-
tions caused no unusual comment when they were
received at headquarters because the reasons as
signed by the officers for asking to be relieved
from duty were good. and there was no indication
OF anything In the way Of hard feeling.
Adutant Wieners gave business as his reason
for rcsignng Adjutant Truman said that his time
had expired, and Quartermaster Pratt said that ne
would be unable to 60 to camp with the regiment.

IMMENSE APPLE CROP.
The Aggregate Yield In the United States
 Will Reach oo,oOo, 900 Barrels.

The Aggregate Yield In the United States
 Will Reach Go,oOo, 900 Barrels.
 NEW YORK, Oct. 0.-Throughoutt the states of chief commercial production, including New England and New York, the crop of winter apples is large, ac- cording to the special report in the New England Homestead, which places the aggregate yield at shade under 59,- 000, 900 barrels for all of the United States, against 50, 300, 900 barrels in 1895 and 57,0o0,0 900 two years ago. This authority says that the crop in New England, New York, Michigan and DOT tions of a few other states is phenom- enal. New England and New York alone have over 16,000, GOO barrels, against little more than 1000, ,000 year ago, while Michigan is harvesting the greatest crop of fine fruit ever secured in that state
 The report covering the central west, however, shows that in many instances the crop is insufficient to supply home requirements. The Canada crop is among the largest on record. Exports from the Atlantic coast are already 100000 barrels, or one-third more than all of last season, and the foreign mar kets have capacity for absorbing fur ther vast quantities before spring.
 Palmer and Buckner Welcomed.
 CREsToN, Ia, Oct. 30.--Amid artillery salutes and the cheering of thousands the special Palmer and Buckner train drew into this city about noon Wednesss day. An escort of several hundred Grand Army of the Republic men and citizens accompanied the party to the opera house where an audience of 1900 people greeted the generals. General Buckner spoke for 35 minutes, diseus- sing the money question with keenness and force. An effort on the part of a coterie of free silver men to hiss him down was squelched.
 General Palmer made short address directing his remarks to the old soldiers, commenting with spirit on the effect that free coinage would have in scaling down their pensions. The meeting closed with general cheering for Pal mer and Buekner
 A reception to the old soldiers was held atsthe car, and the presidential partySlaft for the east at 230
