in commission at the same time

excellent authority is made. The
chairman of the Republican state GEN.
trail committee states that, in the
thirty-six counties which have ex-
pressed their preferences. Reed has
twenty-six and Mckinley ten. although
some of the latter are contested. 1t -
also worthy of notice, that leading Re
publicans in North Carolina express
confidence that Reed will carry the
state, while in Maryland the prospects
are said to be good for Reed to capture
the state convention. All three OF THESE
states have been reckoned by those,
who figure that Mckinley will get rue

solidly in the Mckinley column.

The Bayard Resolutions.

proper and will prove salutary. They
vote. although largely 50. Not all the
Republicans approved the specific
resolution naming Mr. Bayard as the
person censured. whereas nine Demo
Gratis voted for the general resolution,
which it seems to us should have re-
ceived endorsement regardless ~:
party.
The first resolution recites the facts
upon which the two resolutions We're
based and declares: THAT it is the
sense of the House of Representative S
that Thomas Bayard. ambassador of
the United States to Great Britain. III
publicly using the language above
quoted. has committed an offence
against diplomatic propriety, and n"
abuse of the privileges of his eXalte F!
position, which should make him TIE
representative of the whole country.
and not of any political party. Such
with that prudent, delicate and scr,l-
pulous reserve which he, himself. While
secretary of state, enjoined upon all
diplomatic agents of the United States.
In one speech he affronts the great
body of his countrymen who believe il
the policy of protection. In the other
speech he offends all his countrymen
who believe that Americans are CAP
able of government. Therefore,
as the immediate representative of the
American people, and in their name,
we condemn and censure the said
utterances of Thomas +. Bayard. "
This was adopted by a vote of $50 TO
Il.
The other resolution, which received
l91 votes to 50 against, is:
Resolved, further. That in the opin-
ion of the House of Representatives.
public speeches by our diplomatic on
consular officers abroad which display
craftsmanship or which condemn
| any political party. or party pol
icy, or organization of citizens in
the United States are in dereliction of
the duty of such officers, impair their
usefulness as public servants. and
diminish the confidence which they
should always command at home and
abroad.
A wholesome effect was produced by
the speech Of Representative Joseph
w. Bailey of GAINESVILLE. Texas. Mr..
Bailey is Democrat, but he is an
American and had the courage of his
| convictions for he not only delivered /,
| most effective speech in favor of the
resolution but voted for it, and among
the Democrats who took the same
position was Amos Cummings of New
York. There was world of sound
sense in Mr.. Bailey's words, especially
in that part of his remarks which re-
| ferred to Bayard's description of the
| American people as a violent people
needing strong hand" Mr.. Bailey
| declared this to be an offence against
| common sense and sound and rugged
patriotism. The explanations which
had been given for the ambassador S
remarkable utterance could not be ac-
cepted. 1t is infinitely better" said
| the speaker that the will of the pco-
| pie will be faithfully executed. even if
| it is wrong than that they shall be
taught the dangerous doctrine that il is
| a virtue to circumvent their will. A
man who so speaks in the presence Of
subjects of a monarch is not fit to rep
resent free people as an ambassador

Augusta, MAINE, JAN. 70. 1896.

To the Republicans Of Maine:-Prior to 1892
two Presidential electors at large, correspond

nominated in State convention, and the re-
manning electors, corresponding to the men,
beers OF the United States House of Represen-

The passage of the Australian Ballot law en-
tirely changed the procedure. Under the law,
all Conventions are portion Of our election
system. and this ballot act requires that can
didates to be voted for by the Voters through
out the whole state must be placed in nomtna-
ton by Convention representing no less q
constituency than the whole state. Hence. all
the candidates Of party for Presidential cleo
tors must be nominated in State Convention.

Chicago Change.

Chicago, ILL.,, March 1O-The government
report ON wheat, to be issued late in the
afternoon, acted as restraint on trade IN
that grain today. The crowd has 1t pretty
well settled to it's own satisfaction that
there is a good large reserve yet held by
the farmers, and the agricultural depart
ments figures are not likely to exert a
very powerful influence. The effect OF the
document in advance was, however, rather
detrimental to business. The market ranged
below that of yesterday all through the
session, although at the close the demand
from put holders was instrumental in pro-
ducing a steadier feeling al fair recovery.
May wheat opened at 647sm65c, declined to
641ac, closing at 647Q65c, 12c under yester-
day. Cash wheat was easy.
The weakness of wheat affected corn to
the extent of causing an easier feeling, but
not enough to produce marked decline in
values During the session there was a
fractional loss, but Immediately previous to
the close a rally took place and final quo
tations were about the same as those OF
yesterday. Business was dull no incident
OF particular note taking place. May corn
opened at 30Bc, sold at 30A@3Gssc, closing
at 30Ac, unchanged from yesterday. Cash
corn was steady to nc higher
Oats moved but 1sc during the session.
The-range shows the limited volume OF
business. The inactivity gave the market
an appearance of steadiness, which ruled
throughout. May oats closed a shade under
yesterday. Cash oats were quiet.

hogs this morning of 5Q10c per hundred

fined to local operators exclusively. All

New York, March 10.-(Special. )-Another
sharp advance in Liverpool this morning
caused higher opening here, May opening
on the call at 7.5S, but there was more cot
ton offering at the advance than anybody
wanted, and the market gradually gave way
until May had sold at 7.4S Then the prices
began to harden, and May rallied to 7.52. A
little before the close there was a rush to
cover shorts like that of yesterday, and
May advanced to 7.59, closing firm at 1850
7.59. Not for a long time have the bulls
felt so encouraged as this afternoon. There
was much buying for rise as well as to
cover shorts and some traders now talk of
s cents for May. But the southern enthus-
iasm, which is the backbone of every sue
cessful bull movement is now conspicuous
ly lacking and there are more southern
orders to sell than to buy. Prices may go
somewhat higher, but We have strong faith
that the improvement will not last

SUMS Cotton Review.

New York. March 1o.-The Suns cotton
review says: Cotton advanced to points,
reacted and declined, but rallied and ad-
vanced, closing steady. with prices to z
points higher on this crop and / to on
the next. The sales were 259000 bales.
Today's features: Prices at one time got
a setack here and abroad from the sharp
talk at the expense of the Spanish minister
in the United States today. but speeches of
a more pacific character were also deliver
ed, and what was more to the point, the re-
ceipts at the interior towns were SO small
the spot demand so large and the covering
of shorts so liberal that the price was
bought freely: so did the south. There is a
large short interest In Liverpool, and there
Is q favorable interest on that side for New
York.
