Senater Beck on the Sinews of War— Who ‘will be Chairm: f the Na- tional mittee—Ex-Senator Wal- Ince Likely to Succeed Mr, Barnum. ‘The democrats are delighted at the showing of bankers for Cleveland, as they argue trom this that money for campaign purposes will be more plenti- ful than in the past. They affect to believe, too, that Secretary Folger will not ald the Blaine ticket materially. Senator Beck said: “Folger won't open the Treasury for Blaine. It was Blalne who ad- vised republicans to bolt Folger when he ran for governor ot New York, and now the Secretary 1s glad of a chance to give Blaine a dose of the same medicine. Besides, Folger, no doubt, wants Bl:ine tosee What a b—lofarunher this man Cleveland 4s before the people.” ‘The Impres ion seems to be that ex-Senator Wal- lace will be elected chairman of the national demo- cratic committee. On every hand opposition tothe Te-election of Mr. Barnum is expressed. He 15 not Popular with the party, and there is great dissatis- ction at his past management. In 1860 It was Well un that Gen. Hancock wanted ex- Senator Wallace for chalrmian, ul he Was per. ‘suaded to propitiate the Tilden men by asking them to select a man for the place. Barnum then got it, and it was openly charged that he arranged the ‘Tilden dodge to put himself in again. It was rep- Tesented to Hancock that Tilden would feel com- plimented at having his management continued. Itis thought that Gov. Cleveland prefers Man- ning, of New York, but the understanding 1s that he (Manning) does’ not want the position. He has promised to devote his time to the canvass and to aid the committee to the full extent of his ability, Dut does not want to be the responsiblehead. From food authority it islearned that Mr, Randall for- ‘the use of his name. He will not stand in Mr. Wallace's way. At Chicago Mr. Randall was ably. and loyally supported by Wallace, and It fs said the former will now do all he can to have the latter made chairman of the committee. For many years the Wallace and Randall factions of the democracy in Pennsylvania antagonized each other at every convention, but the hatchet has been buried and the best of feeling now prevails between them. It Was hinted that Wallace, prompted by old rival- Ties and animosities, would “knife” Randall at Chicago, but he proved to be the most determined champion of the ex-speaker. Mr. Randall's friends now say that he would be ungrateful to permit the use of his name for a position that Wallace wants, and thal the latter has the ex-speaker's assurance Of his most cordial support. What Prominent Democrats Say. REPRESENTATIVE FORAN WAS A THURMAN MAN, BUT SAYS CLEVELAND WILL WIN. Representative Foran, of Ohio, dropped tnto the Gemocratic headquarters to-day. He says that Cleveland 1s not the man he wanted nominated, but that he will win, He says the ticket is strong, and will increase in strength every day. Randall was the man Mr. Foran wanted. He says that ‘Thurman 1s a great man, but was not great enough to keep out of Iitte local squabbles, and to that owes his failure to ‘unwise in his open opposition to Payne and Hoadiy. BLAINE CAN'T CARRY NORTH CAROLINA. “There is no foundation for the claim that Blaine can carry North Carolina,” sald a delegate trom thatstate to THe Stan man this morning. “The democrats have the state by ten thousand major- ity. ‘Tariff? Well, they won't fight about that. ‘The state ts for mila protection, but they are satis- fled with the platform adopted at Chicago.” The Democratic Ratification. ‘The date of the democratic ratification meeting in Washington has not vet been decided, but the expectation fs that it'wiil be held some night next week. The arrangements are depending largely upon the return of Mr. Dickson, chairman of the central committee, though meantime the subordl- nate organizations are making preparations. ‘The Ross-Tinney Homicide.

Judge Hagner granted te writand made it returnable at 11 o'clock to- day. This morning Mr. Prott was produced in the Cireult Court by Geg. Crocker, the warden of the Jail. Messrs. Cook € Cole and W. F. Mattingly ap- peared for the piaintitYs, who had ‘obtained judg- | Ment, and flied the affidavits as the basis of the caplas. The case excited considerable interest aud there were prevent a number of business men and members of the Dar. ‘Mr. Hine said that they questioned the right for the marshal to commit on such a writ, and that the writ was linproperly issued; that there was no right to arrest the petltioner. Judge Haguer said that Congress had provided for the issue of a writ of habeas corpus in Uvese cases, und r which the pliintiffs must show cause why the defendant be not discharged. ‘There was but owe thing for them to do, and that Was to give Rotice to the other side to show cause why Provt should not be discharged. » Mr. Claughton said that the petitioner took the broad “ground independent of the imprison ment, and upon such notice efther party may de- mand a trial by jury, and thereupon the court or Judge shall direct din issue or issues to be framed Upon the aifidavit go tiled, and shail cause a Jury to be impuneled and sworn to Uy such Issue or issues, and if the finding of the fury shall be for the plain ‘Uff, the defendant shall be thereupon remanded to prison. ar Claughton said that they made the road proposition that AN OUTRAGE HAD BREN COMMITTED, and that, independent of the statute, the prisoner should be discharged.

In this case the petition for the writ of habeus cor- Pus did not cite the act. ‘This had been the prac- Uce, and he should follow it. ‘Mr. Claughton sald the court had decided on the statute, but they did not ask anything und-r the statute} they had demurred to the return. ‘The court Said they must proceed under the terms of the statute, Mr. Claughton asked if the court would make an+ order refusing to discharge the petitioner, that they migitt apes ‘he court said that the next. move should be for petitioner to serve notice on defendants to show cause Why he should not be discharged.

UNEXPECTED DELAY IN GETTING THE ROOF STONES FOR THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT—WILL IT BE COMPLETED THIS FALL? ‘The Washington monument to-day reached a height of 482 feet. Only 18 feet are to be added before the completion of the shaft proper, and then the work of building the pyramidal roof will be In order. The stone for the shaft proper is all cut and ready to be lal in place, and sixty of the root stones have been delivered in good shape; but grave fears are entertained that the delivery of the Fest of the stones, about 190 in number, will be delayed so long that the completion of the monu- ment will not be accomplished at the time expected. Mr. Hugh Sisson, of Baltimore, the contractor for furnishing the stones, had agreed to begin deliver- ing those still wanting by the first of August at the latest. ‘They were to be sawed on two sides, so that with but comparatively little work the con- | struction of the roof could progress rapidly. Col. Casey, however, has Just received word from the conthietor that it will be impossible to begin delty- ering for a month yet. In view of that unexpected delay and the incidental obstacles caused by bad eather, &., the prospects are not very promis- ry ‘apt. Davis, Col. Casey's assistant, has gone to Baltimore to 'see what can be done. He will visit, Mr. Sisson’s quarries, and look the field over, and if1€ ts impossible to secure the material In the condi- Uon agreed upon, he will endeavor to have tt sipped rough hewn. When once on thexround Col. Casey will make every effort to carry out his part of the program and have the structure compieted this fall. By placing an extra force of men at. work and by working atnisht with the ald of electric lamps, the stones will be cut by hand and the work pushed so that everything can be under cover by the Ume snow flea In that event the Washington monument will be practically completed this year and will be @ pronounced Success. ‘There 1s no doubt as to the security of the foundation, about which there was 80 much talk a few years azo. As the construction of the shaft progressed the most minute and careful sclentine watch of its stability was kept with the most satisfactory results. When it Is remembered that the total welght which was to be added to the old portion of the monu- ment was 21,000 tons, and that but 450 tons of that amount remiin toe added, there can not be the slightest doubt of 1ts stability.
