VIII GEN. Tcherevin's Death End One
Phase of Ru ssian ID epotism.
(From the London Times.)

. \ A 1OI4l Ull0 l4OuQOA l1t5s
The death of Gen. Tchereyin is an
event of some Importance, inasmuoh as
it is expected to lead TO TIE discontinue
ance of the special institution which the
late General represented, and which, in
fact, he may be said to have oreated-the
special guard, composed of variety of
persons known and unknown, including
the police Of the imperial residence, for
the protection of the person of the Gar.
At least it is rumored that the late Gen.
eral is not likely to have a successor in
exactly the same position under the pres
ent young Gar, and indeed, the con-
ditioD Of affairs now is so diff erent from
that which led 10 the creation of this
extraordinary position in the early years
of the last reign that in all probability
its continuance in its present form will
be considered unnecessary. Its present
machinery may simply be incorporated
with the other departments of the Minis
try of the Household, if not at once, per-
hhps after the coronation. In any case,
some change in this respect is being dis
cussed.
The high favor in which Gen. Tchere-
win was held by the imperial family was
shown by the presence of the Gear and
his imperial mother at the bedside when
the General breathed his last The re-
moyal OF the body to thu chucrh of the
regiment of Horse Guards was also at
tended by most of the Emperor's uncles
and cousins, and the Dowager Empress
was present at prayers in the mortuary
chamber before the coffin was carried by
troopers of tho Horse Guards. followed by
the dign taries of the Court and Govern
ment and members of the imperial fam
lily. The body will be taken by rail on
Saturday to the late Generals estate IN
the Province of Kostroma.
Gen. Tchereyin distinguished himself
in the Polish &C mpaign of 1868 and the
Turkish war of 1877. During the latter
he WIS head of the Cars Cossaok body
guard which he commanded for nine
years. From 1878 to 1880 he was Assist
ant Chief of Gendarmes and head of the
Third Section of his Majesty's Cabinet.
otherwise the secret political police.
Subsequently he became Assistant Min
lister of the Interior. While he was in
was made upon his life by a Nihilist
whom the General horsewh:pped on the
spot, after disarming him of revolver.
Alexander III. attached the General to
his person and gave him immense au-
thority in all that concerned his Males
ty IS safety. He was therefore the con-
slant companion of the late Gar, and.
although be was very fond of good sheer,
his keen intellect WAS ever on the alert to
serve the best. interests of his sovereign.

Situation From Secretary Manley.
Washington, March Ell. II. Manley
today sent from here the following tele-
gram:
Hon. W. M. Crane, Republican State
Convention, Boston, Mass.
In answer to your inquiry, this Is the
situation as it will stand at the end of
this week. AT the close Of your convention
today, there will have been 1893 delegates
elected. Gov. Mckinley will have 16a
delegates provided you assign to him the
entire delegation from Wisconsin,
Indiana and Minnesota.
There should be taken from this num-
Der twelve delegates from these states
who have declared since their election, in
favor of Mr.. Reed. AS they were not in
structed, they should be taken from the
Mckinley column and placed in Mr..
Reeds. This gives Gov. Mckinley $50
delegates; Mr.. Reed 70, Gov. Morton Ga,
Senator Cullen TO- contested 49, You
will see that this gives Mr.. Mckinley $50
delegates, against 30 anti Mckinley
delegates.
The situation is precisely rs it was
twenty years ago. You will remember
that three months before the convention
met at Cincinnati, we were confident of
Mr.. Blaine's nomination. He stood then
as the apostle of protection, but he had
opposed to his nomination, Senator
Conkhng of New York, Senator Morton
of Indiana, Secretary Bristow of Ken
lucky, Gov. Hayes of Ohio, and Gov.
Hartranft of Pennsylvania.
We felt SO sure of Mr. Blaine's nominal
ton we regarded it ms settled, yet he was
defeated in the convention and the Maine
man went down before the Ohio COVER
nor. History will repeat itself at St.
Louis. Gov. Mckinley is and will be the
leading candidate in the convention, but
he will have opposed to him as candidates
Gov. Morton of New York, Senator Ali
son Of Iowa, Senator Cullom of Illinois,
Senator Quay of Pennsylvania and Mr.
Reed of Maine. You will find that the
tables will be turned and the Ohio GOV
ernor will go down before the man from
Maine. j. II. MANLEY.

"A spaninrd's Speech.

NEW YORK, May 1s.-Importers OF to-
bacco from cuba were inclined to doubt
to-day the authenticity of the dispatches
from Havana to the effect that General
Weyler had forbidden the expectation of
tobacco from Cuba General weyler, it is
understood, has taken this step because of
the financial assistance rendered to the
cause of the revolution in Cuba by the Gu
ban and Spanish cigar makers in this coun-
try and presumably elsewhere out of Cuba.
A member of a wholesale grocery house
that imports more tobacco and cigars from
Cuba than any other firm. speaking of this
latest alleged order by the Spanish COM
mander-in-chief in Cuba. said to-day: IF
the t~elegraphic dispatches concerning this
matter are correct the whole manufacturing
tobacco trade in this country will be de-
mo,ished.
The price of Havana cigars constantly
fiuctuates as far as the dealers are con-
cerned. although the consumer perhaps do
not know II. There has been a gradual in
crease in the price of tobacco the last two
months, but 1t is impossible to say how
much the price of domestic cigars is to be
increased by our failure to get tobacco from
Cuba. Some Sumatra leaf is used for max
ing cigars, but it is not so satisfactory, of
course, as the Havana The enforcement
of General Weyler's decree would greatly
interfere with the manufacture in Florida.
But it is early yet to p%rophesy. 1 think the
manufacturers in this country have Cuban
tobacco on hand sufficient 70 last them for

bacco from Cub ran from 100000 pounds
in 1886 to q. 100000 pounds in 1893. falling to
2O.00,0O o pounds In 1895. The value of the to-
bacco ranged from 100000 in 1886 to $780,
coo in 1898 and 100000 In 1895. The value
of manufactures of tobacco Cigars i'm
