Wilson to be Postmaster-General, to succeeed Mr. Bissell, whose resigna- tion was tendered Wednesday. It bas been rumored for some time that Wilson (the author of the tariff bill) would be named to suc ceed Bissell, should that gentleman resign. But for the fact that the President intended making Mr. Wilson a mem- ber ofjhis official family, his friends say a tender of the Mexican mission would have been made to him. As far back as the early autumn, Mr. Bissell felt that his law practice required his personal attention, and at that time he notified the Presi- dent that sooner or later he would be compelled to retire to private life. In a statement made by Mr. Bis sell he says that he has found the work of the office agreeable, not withstanding its onerousness. He says that he leaves the department with regret, and adds that his official relations with the President and his Cabinet Ministers have been most cordial. He denies emphatically the reports of disagreements between the Presi- dent and his Cabinet, and asserts that no ministry could, in its official and personal relations, be more har- monious. Speaking of Mr. Bissell’s resigna- tion, President Cleveland said: “I shall release Mr. Bissell with the utmost regret. I have known for some time that it was inevitable, be- cause Mr. Bissell’s reasons for his action were of a personal nature and were inexorable. Still, this first break in the Cabinet, Which has been in the midst of many perplex- ing situations entirely harmonious, always actuated by a loyal devotion to the public interest and pervaded in a marked degree by the personal attachment which such connections cannot fail to create, causes us all real sorrow. Much gratification awaits Mr. Bissell in the apprecia- tion of his countrymen of his splen- did and valuable public service.” MISSOURI’S GAME LAW. The Special House Committee Agrees on Game Law Revision. The special house committee of fifteen of the legislature, appointed to revise and amend the game laws of the state, has finally agreed upon a substitute for all pending bills. This substitute will be given prece- dence and an effort made to secure its passage through both houses so that the “pot hunters” may be driv- en out of business and the wanton destruction of game ehecked. The substitute suggested by the special committee is as follows: “Section 1. Itis hereby declared unlawful to kill any deer in the state of Missouri under one year of age. It is further declared unlawful to kill any deer of any age between the first day of January and the first day of October in each year; and for the purpose of preventing the ex- tinction of the species, it is hereby declared unlawfui to kill any doe within five years after the passage of this act. It is further declared unlawful to kill any wild song bird or insectivorous bird at any season of the year, or to disturb, rob or de- stroy the nests of such birds, or take therefrom any egg or eggs. It is further declared unlawful to kill any wild turkey, pinnated grouse (commonly called a prairie chicken), or ruffed grouse (commonly called pheasant or partridge), or any quail (sometimes called Virginia partridge) between January 1 and November 1 of each year, or any woodcock, turtle dove, meadow lark or plover between January 1 and August 1 in each year. And it is further declared unlawful at any time or season to catch, take or injure by means of nets, traps, pens or pits or other device, any kind of game as herein described, within this state; and every person who shall kill any wild duck between the let day of April and the ist day of October, or who shall ensnare, trap or kill by means of any explo- siye, apy wild goose or duck, or whe shal) shoot or kill the same in the lor other explosives of any kind, shalt | | be guilty of a misdemeanor. | vided, that the provisions of this | | section shall not apply to any per- Pro- | son who shall ensnare, trap or net} |wild geese or ducks on his own) | premises for his own use.

The constables of the sev- leral townships in the counties of | lex officio game wardens, and are ing all violators of the preceding section, and shall receive for their sercices the same fees as are now al- lowed prosecuting witnesses in such cases, in addition to their regular fees ” Washington, D. C, Feb. 28— Much dissatisfaction is expressed by members of the Appropriations Committee of the House over the amendments which have been added to the sundry civil bill by the Senate. Particular dissatisfaction is mani- fested against the sugar bounty pro- visions. The House has already voted on the question in different ways, and always signified its oppo sition to the bounty. That it will do so again is not doubted by the Democrats, and there may be a seri- ous difference between the two Houses over the question. Another matter that troubles members of the House is the number of public buildings foc which appropriations have been added to the sundry civil bill. The Democrats of the com mittee wiil make a fiht against these additions, and the members whose items originally received the com- mittee’s sanctions are fearful that the buildings for their own districts may be endangered by the additions, and that complications will be brought about which will threaten the success of all the building pro visions. Inflammatory Negro Speeches. Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 26.—A sensa- tion has been created here by a negro mass meeting held last night at Big Bethel, the largest church in the city, which was advertised as a memorial meeting in honorfof Fred Douglass, but which was turned in- to an indignation meeting against the whites. As speaker followed speaker the addresses became more and more unbridled, until the affair broke out in spots with “Jim Crow” cars, “social equality” and ‘“‘calis for revenge’ as the texts for fiery out- bursts. Proctor, the pastor of the colored Congregation Church, was received with applause when he announced that he agreed with Douglass when he told the Southern people to be- ware or they would find “tirebrands under their houses and poison in their coffee.” R. M. Cheeks, pastor of the Big Bethel Church, was cheered when he told of how the North Carolina Legislature had put Douglass first, Washington second and Lee third. Carter, the pastor of the Friend- ship Baptist Church, declared that he would marry a white woman if he could, and said the negroes only en- vied Fred Douglass because he had succeeded where they had failed. He made the hit of the evening. Morris, a grandson-in-law of Fred Douglass,devoted most of bis eulogy on Douglass to the burning question of “Jim Crow” cars, and advised the negroes to carry their cases to Su- preme Court, and finally brought down the house by declaring that Fred Douglass ranked next to Jesus Christ. The Barbecue King ad. St. Joseph, Mo., 27.—Colonel Cal- yin James, better known as the near Easton early this morning. He had been ill for some time with pneumonia. He leaves a wife and several children. was famous all over North Missouri for the barbecues which he conduct- edeach year. He was a sterling Democrat and whether » campaign was on or not he gave a barbecue each fell, to which thousands came aod at which the principles of Dem- ocracy were discussed and reaffirm- ed.

C, Feb. 26.—The senate financial committee at its meeting to day ordered a favorable report on the amendment to the sundry civil appropriation bill to provide for the appointment of a committee of nine on behalf of the United States to attend an national conference on rehabilitation of silver in case one should be de- cided upon. There were sume verbal amendments, but the provision for the selection of three members from the senate and three frem the House wasretained, also the amend- ments made by the committee to strike out the provision in the orig- inal revolution specifying the coun- tries upou whose invitation the Pres- ident shall determine that this country shall be represented and simply provide that he shall act with | confidence if called. H There is also a change in the wording of the provission in regard | to the appointment of commissioners on behalf of the United States which | is made to read as follows: “The United States shall be rep- resented at such conference by nine | delegates tu be selected as follows: \ The president of the United States shall select three delegates, the Sen ate shall select three members of the Senate as delegates and the House of Representatives shall select three members as delegates. If at any ove time there shall be any vacancy such vacancy shall be filled by the President of the United States. interna. | Vetoed by Cleveland. | Washington, D C. Feb. 28.— | The President has sent to the House a message vetoing the bill to grant a pension to Eunice Putnam, the daughter of John Putnam who serv- edin the late war. “The report of the committee to whom this bill was referred,” says the President, “states | that no claim for pension on account of the soldier's death has ever been filed in the Pension bureau and it seems that upon this theory it was proposed to pension the daughter. Ido not suppose it was intended that a double pension should be al- lowed. In pvint of fact the widow has already been pensioned, and in such pension allowance has been made for the minor children. There is no suggestion that the widow had died or remarried. If this bill should become a law. two full pen- sions would be in force at the same time, one to the widow and another to the daughter, each predicated upon the services and death of the same soldier.

His trial will come off some time during the} present term of court. Even should | the charge of murder not be sus tained,of which there is little doubt, there are still sufficient robbery cases against him to send him over the road for a natural lifetime. Bill Cook, the leader, goes for forty-five years; Skeeter is already working} * out his thirty years’ sentence, while two of his companions are serving twenty years each, and now the} worst one of them all, Cherokee Bill, stands in the shadow of the gallows. His conviction seems to sit lightly upon him, and he evidently believes that some stroke of fortune will yet intervene aud save him. Oyer at the Federal Jail he plays his poker hand with as much sang froid as ever.

Loading all into a wagon they drove away, and tele- graphic inquiries haye failed to lo- catethem. Early this morning the same ora similar gang of thieves blew open the vault of the Interna- tion Bank at Kirkeville, but did not succeed in forcing the money chest.
