Senator Logan has been offered $40,000 for the Stone mansion, which he purchased three months ago for $20,000 upon very easy terms, After consulting with a real estate agent, he decided not to accept the offer, ns the agent as- sured him the property would be worth at least $60,000 by the end of his Senatorial term. PAYMENT DEMANDED FOR RETURNED CHI- NAMEN,—The customs officers along the Cana- dian borders have notified the Secretary of the Treasury Department that the dominion authorities demand the payment of a tax of $50 per head for Chinese returned to Canada, having illegally entered the United States over the borders, Gone To SEE THE INDIANS.—Commissioner Atkins, of the Indian bureau, left yesterday on @ tour of inspection through the Indian reser- vations, He went with the Holman inyestizat- ingcommittee, which Is going first to the Indian territory. From the territory Mr. Atkins will go to San Carlos and investigate the condition of affairs there and the troubles that led to the Geronimo outbreak. OxE THOUSAND PosTMasTERs.—When the Senate meets there will be a list of between five and six hundred postmasters appointed during the recess submitted for confirmation. In addi- Uonit is estimated that during the ‘session of Congress the terms of at least 600 postmasters will expire so that the nominations of over one thousand postmasters will come before the Senate during the next session. 2.335 presidential postmasters In this country, andat the rate that has been observed during the past six months, all the presidential postmas- ters will be changed in two years. ConvicreD oF ALLEGED LAND FRaups.— ‘The commissioner of the land office has been informed that the operations of R. C, Bloom- field, an Englishman, manager of the Arkansas Land and Cattle company, recently convicted at Denver of procuring fraudulent entries uy public lands, were of the most andacious char- acter, All ofthe cowboys in h forced to make entries in his behalf, and then he set up “paper men,” or, in other words, made entrics in the names of persons who had no existence. His conviction, it is believed, will have a wholesome effect on others who have been guilty of like practices, THE ALABAMA CLAIMS CouRT.—The em- ployesof the Court of Alabama Claims, whose salaries were cut off by the decision of Con- troller Durham, have agreed to continue their services for the court and trust to Congress to pay, them. |The attorneys for the claimants ave agreed to pay Mr. Jeremiah M.

A Sraz reporter to-day met Hon. Milton Say- ler, formerly a member of Congress from Ohio, and now resident of New York city. Mr. Sayler, though practising law in New York, still maintains his law office and voting rights in Cincinnati, and takes an active interest in the politics of that state. TH STAR reporter asked him: “What do you hear of the political chances in Ohio?” “I have seen and conversed,” replied Mr. Sayler, “with quite a number of my old demo- cratic friends of Ohio recently. All of them ex- pres themselves as very hopeful of success. It js evident that the democratic prospects have improved of late, and from what I hear I be- lieve we will carry the state.” “Do you believe that the democrats will carry the legislature, too?”’ inquired the reporter. “Well,” responded Mr. Sayler, somewhat hes- itatii ney, “Cam not 80 hopeful of that. The republicans will trade off their state ticket to Save the legislature, as the loss of that bod: would retire John Sherman. I am very mucl in hopes that we will carry the legislature, too; but, as I say, that 1s more doubtful than the state ticket. "The re-election of Gov, Hoadly and the success of our state ticket now seem to be almost assured. I hope to see the legislature £ the same way, and that, if they get the legis- lature, our people will elect the right man tothe United States senate.” ‘Mr. Sayler did not seem Inclined to indicate whom he regarded as the “right man,” preter- ring, perhaps, not. to ‘commit, himself to any one of the numerous prominent democrats who will aspire to the Senate in the event of a dem- ocratic majority in the lesislature, ——____.¢¢—____ THE WORK BEFORE THE HOUSE. Plans Talked of for Expediting Bu ness—Proposed Division of Labor Approp’ m Bills—Members who Spend More Time im Pleasure than Work. The matter of the reorganization of the House of Representativesis being much talked of just now. The conviction that unnecessary delay in legislation must be prevented is finding ex- pression in various plans for advancing busi- ness this coming session, so as not to have a repetition of the last. Most of the pians have in view the curtailment of the powers of the appropriations committee. The proposition to divide the appropriations bills among the varl- ous committees interested in them is not likely tobe adopted. Besides, the tend@cy towards extravagance such a plan would be likely to have, it is belleved that it would tend still fur- ther to retard business, Many of Mr. Carlisle's supporters would like to sec Mr. Randall de- graded from his position at the head of the ap- propriations committee. It is urged that as the reconstruction of the American navy 1s to be one of the most important works of this admin- istration. the naval affairs committee, ot whitch Mr. Cox was the head, will bé one of the most important this session, and that Mr. Randall’s friends would have no cause to complain if he were put at the head of that committee. To make the position still more comfortable for him, they would be willing to give him the naval appropriation bill also, soas to place the whole thing in his hands, - Thereis desire on the part of some to get Mr. Holman, the great objector, off the appropriations com- mittee, too. The place selected for him is the chairmanship of the Indian aftutrs committee. This was last session one of the most insignifi- cant of all the committees of the House. It is said, however, that during the coming winter the Indian problem will demand the serious attention of Congress, and that Mr. Holman, having traveled all through the reservations at the head of the Indian investigating commit- tee, and being possessed of a wonderful amount of Information on the subject, should be assigned the task of solving the question. It is P.oposed, too, to give him the Indian Appropriation bill in connection with the com- tition Another plan is to allow the sppropri- ations committee to remain as it was at the ¢lose of the last session, as near as may be, with Mr. Randall at its head, but to change the rules of the House so as to provide that the appropria- tion bills be re; within certain stated in- tervals, one bill, for instanoe, to be re} within two weeks after the meeting of Congress, the rest to follow with a certain regularity, so that the last bill will be aisposed of at least ten days before adjournment. This plan, it is thought, meets with the most favor, ‘and is the one that would be most approved of by Mr. Car- isle. Some of the working and thinking mem- bers believe that much more could be accom- plished if the majority of the members would be willing to give to their pub- le duties at feast ‘as much time as they devote to vacation. The vacation period is always much longer than the session, and there are very few members who devote any of this time to public business, Most of them off in pursuit of pleasure, and many withhold their address from the House postmaster, s0 as not to be bothered with their correspondence. ‘The majority of the members have spent this summer at Yellow Stone Park, Long Branch, Coney Island, Virginia Beach and in the moun: tains about White Sulphur Syritee Only one or two have gone to Europe. ‘There were a very few, among whom were Randall, Lowrey and Maison, who remained for any length of time at the capital to attend to public business, Mr. Matson alone was conspicuous for industry, having devoted nearly the entire summer to trying to get the work of the pensions commit- tee well up for next sessio1 ee Importunate Pennsylvanians. THE KEYSTONE STATE DELEGATION AGAIN ON HAND, The Pennsylvania delegation is again on hand toimportune the President about their local offices. They are getting very impatient on account of the delay in turning the republi- cans out. They want the district attorney, the marshal and the pension agent for the western district put out at once.

WHY DISTRICT DEMOCRATS WILL NoT SEND MONEY TO VIRGINIA. The District democrats are not at all pleased with the way the President has kept republi- cans in the District offices. They contributed more money to the presidential campaign fund than any two of the southern states, and ex- pected that when Cleveland was elected they would at once be given control of District af fairs. Since things have turned out as the: have they are notatall satisfied.

What Col. Lamont Says of the Alleged Letter of the President to a Buffalo Friend. Col. Lamont, upon being asked to-day about the alleged letter of the President to a friend in Baffaio endorsing the democratic state ticket of New York, replied tnat if any such letter was extant it wasa forgery. He said the Presi- dent had not written any such letter, and such an expression of his views would be unneces- sary; that in the mindsof sensible people it would not be necessary for a democratic Presi- dent to write a letter endorsing the demo- cratic ticket of his own state. ‘The only utterance the President hns made on the subject was an answer which he dictated to Col. Lamont, his private secretary, to be made to an inquiry sent him by a correspond- vg! was as follows: “The President is a democrat, and itis strange that any person should question his position. He earnestly desires the success of his party In the pending elections in New York, as else- where, and any assertion to the contrary is ul- terly and maliciously false. eS tes: THE SCHOOL TEACHERS’ PAY. The First Division Teachers Doubtfal Whether to Submit or Not to the Trustees’ Plan. A meeting of the teachers of the first division of public schools was held last evening, and their action in regard to the deficiency in the appropriation for salaries, and the plan of a horizontal reduction as proposed by the board ofschool trustees was thoroughly discussed. Ata former meeting, it had been practically decided t@ recommend that if the reduction of three per cent went into effect that one month should be dropped from the school year, but this has been found impossible. The meeting last evening considered two propositions, the first being plan to leave the matter of signing the pay roll to the individual discretion of each teacher, but to make a record of a protest aguinst their sys- tem of reduction. The second proposition to refse to sign the pay-roll at all and to en- deavor to make arrangements to have money sufficient for the immediate wants of the teach- ers loaned until Congress met and remedied the difficulty. Both of these propositions were very earnestly discussed by the large representation Ol the teachers present, and a committee was appointed to consider the matter and report to @ necting which will be held this even It fs thought that the teachers will finally to make a protest against this arrange and place themselves on the record, and then accept the reduced pay. The dissatisfaction with this method of providing for the deficiency exists not alone in the first division, but is said to be well developed in the second and fourth. The action of the teachers of the first division is therefore awaited with great Interest by all the public school teachers of the District. “The ground taken by the teachers is not against the reduction itself, but against the injustice, as It is claimed, of the board of trustees in caus: ing the low-alaried teachers to sutler a reduction because the increase in the salaries of some of the best paid teach- ers has made the average too high. For instance they say that the salary of the princi- pal of the High school was increased, and also that of several of his assistants and the teacher of music. A new assistant to the principal of the Normal school was provided, and several other changes made, all bused upon an average salary expenditure of $080. But. this average was cut down by the Commissioners to $070, and Congress refused to make auy change. (It is claimed that if reductions were made in the higher salaries that the average vould be brought down tothe amount specified in the law. To-morrow is pay day and the supervis- ing principal, Mr, Crain, said this morning that hedid not know whether the teachers would sign the pay-rolls or not. That will probably be determined at the meeting this evening. WHAT AUDITOR TICHENOR Says, The district auditor, speaking this morning of the shortage in the appropriation for annual sal- aries of school teachers, sald thatit is an un- doubted fact that sueh deficiency will be found at the close of the year,-at the rate of salaries fixed by the committee on teachers in their schedule, “Had the schedule of teachers’ pay been made up before the appropriation was made?” asked the Stan, “Certainly it had,” sald the wuditor, “but the amount appropriated by Congress was not suf- ficient to meet it. There was.a mistake some- where,” he continued, “either the amount asked for was noLappropriated, or there was not prudent management on the part of the teus- tees in the appointment of teachers, makin, their number conform to the sum appropriated. ‘The sum appropriated for teachers’ pay for thé entire year was $390,000. “How is it proposed to remedy the dim- cnity?” asked the reporter. “By making a deduction,” said the auditor, “on all the teachers’ saluries of 3 per cent., yhhich will be w proportionate equal amount, This seems to be the most practical way out of the difficulty, ‘This will have to be done and a deficiency asked for of about $10,000, the amount or near the amount of deficiency. ‘Con- gress seems to have cut down the amount asked for. Itis no fault of the Commission- ers. “Will there not be good ground for claims against the District by the school teachers hereafter?” “There may be,” said the auditor; “I cannot ut they will be in small amounts, if THE ALLEGED ATTEMPTS TO BURN THE LE DROIT BUILDING.

A Murderer After Two Years Secks Re- lief from His Conscience by Confess- ing His Horrible Crime. CurcaGo, October 6.—The strange and wild story of John M. Wilson, who staggered into the 12th-street station on Saturday night last, pro- pane himself a murderer, is true. The fol- lowing dispatch received last night from Phila- delphia confirms his tale: “Hold Wilson, “Hets ranted for murder of Anthony Daly, who dis- appeared mysteriously about the middle of ‘ebruary, 1884, from his farm in Montgomery county, near Ivy Hill cemetery, Will send on for him.” In his drunken taik Wilson told of the horrible manner in which he killed Antho- ny Daly, a farmer of Ivy Hill, Pa., in February, 1884, “How, after he had worked for him, he asked for money, and on being refused visited a neighboring village and got crazy drunk. Re- turning, he steaithily entered the slecping room of Daly, and picking up a meat cleaver, brained the sleeping victim. The details following are almost too horrible to relate. The mur derer deliberately hacked the body to sewed the severed members in a bag and dumped them into the Wissahickon river, When sufficiently sobered to realize the terri. ble deed he had committed he fled the country, arriving in Chicago after almost two years’ want derings. Wilson was seen in his cell at the po- lice station last night. He is a smallman, about 7 years old, a native of Nova where his patents and relatives reside, ‘Since huis arrival in this city he has worked for a milkman on Wentworth avenue, He says that he has been nearly trantic ever since he committed the deed, and has vainly tried to drown his remorse with liquor, About two weeks since he met a. child greatly resembling thatof the man he had murdered. ‘Since then he has known no peace of mind, and Saturday night got ‘drunk and a boy, e hin to ice station where he made his confession. a Wheeling’s Scusation.
