DRAW THE LINE.
New Orleans Women Object to Ne
gro Delegates.

New Orleans, March 25.-The
New Orleans Council of Women will
not officially entertain the National
Council of Women at the convention
which meets tomorrow, on account
of the race question.
The national council accepted an
invitation to meet in New Orleans
OF the invitation of the local coun-
Gil. There are several negro women
as delegates, but a sort Of promise
was obtained from them that they
would not attend the New Orleans
convention. Mrs. May Wright Sew
ali, the president, announced to-day
that if any negro delegates presented
themselves they would have to be
given seats in the convention and
participate in all entertainments. The
New Orleans council drew out and
announced that it would take no
part in the movement. The national
council then determined to give a
reception Of its own tomorrow night
which is open to all, white or col.
ored.

POINTS TO

Candidate.

Chicago, March Ex-senator Tel
Ter and Mrs. Teller arrived in Chi
cago last night on their way to their
home in Colorado.
~ am just as disguised with my
Republican friends as ever" said
the Senator. XII guess we will have
them up q STUN in the next presi-
dental race, however, for they will
at least have to discuss some Of their
pet measures, which will hurt them
nightly. They certainly will have
to discuss the tariff.
'sIn my opinion, Judge Parker, Of
New York, is the logical candidate
of the Democratic par y. Bryan does
not want the nomination. Cleveland
could not get it if he wanted
it. Hill is not acceptable. Olney is
not apt to be the nominee for the
same reason, and German will not
be the candidate."

SELF GOVERNMENT IN SIGHT
TIL IRISH LAND BILL is
WELL RECEIVED.
Friends of Erin Realize That a Vast
Step is Taken Toward the
Dawn of That Day For
Which They Have
So Long Been
Hoping.

London, March 26.-Mr. Wynd-
ham has no cause to be dissatisfied
with the reception given to the Irish
land bill up to the present time.
A days reflection has not modified
the first favorable opinions express
ed. Perhaps the strongest indiea-
tons Of any yet announced have
come from the Ulster landlords, the
majority of whom are said to be I'M
likely to sell their estates. T. w.
Russell, member for one OF the III
ster divisions, declares that this diff
fculty arising from the absence of a
compulsory clause in the bill will re-
suit in a continuance of the agitation
il Ulster by tho tenants who are
thus deprived of availing themselves
of the new measure.
William O'Brien has issued a
manifesto criticising many feature of
the bill, but strongly d~eprecating
anything like a hasty condemnation
by the Nationalist convention. Gen
orally speaking the Nationalist
heartily welcome the bill, not be-
cause they regard it as perfect but
because it gives ministerial sanction
TO the principle Of State aid in the
shape of the bonus provided for IN
der the bill, and because it is held to
contain the germ of a future measure
of self-government for Ireland.
Among the provisions of the bill
which Nh. Wyndham had not time
to explain yesterday is a very inn
portant one, sweeping away all ar
rears Of rent, except for the year pre-
ceding the passage of the act. Sew
eral other extremely good features
OF the measure will also come to
light when the text is disturbed.
