REDISTRICTING IN WISCONSIN ILLEGAL Repeal of the Compulsory Educa- tional Law in Illinois. GENERAL POLITICAL GOSSIP. FIGHTING THE BIG BEEF PACKERS. A Trial of Great Interest Begins in Chi- cago. Curcaco, March 22.—Judge Tuley will today face an imposing array of legal talent. The Itigation will be the fight of the Stick- Ney packers against the New Jersey corpora- tion that owns 98 per cent of the ftock of the Union Stock Yards Com- Pany. Messrs. Armour, Swift and Morris are also among the defendants, and the case promises to be celebrated. for Mr. Armour is Feported to havo said that if necessary he would expend 5,000,000 in Utigation against the smalier packers. Among those who will appear for the de- fense in the up to 10 oclock this morhing are Jos, H. Choate of New York, Wm. H. Sew- ard, son of the great war secretary of Courtlandt Parker of New Jersey, ex- England Edward K’ Phelps. The local attorneys include W. C. Goudy, John N.

Mapzsox, Wis., March 22.—The supreme court declares the amemtly, renatorial and congres- sional apportionment made by the last legisia- ture to be uncoustitutional pes ohana WANT UNCONDITIONAL REPEAL, German Lutherans of Chicago Denounce the Compulsory School Law. Cucaco, March 22.—-The German Lutheran church has demanded the unconditional repeal of the compulsory school law. ‘The demand was made last night in a feom each =German Lutheran con- regation in Cook county and the country round about. Five hundred men crowded into hall in the big Immanuel Lutheran German Church, on Marshfield avenue near 12th street, and bitterly denounced the law. ‘They repre- sented 25,000 German Lutherans who lave votes in northern Mlinoia. The demand was to the effect that as the law had not been amended as had been promised and the proceedings of the Illinois legisinture have shown that it was impossivle to amend the law or to ont its objectionable fea- tures, therefore it was resolved that the uncon- ditional repeal of the law be demanded. It was decided to make its repeal the main cam- paign issue in the state election of 1892. eg FUNDS UNACCOUNTED FOR. Serious Charges Against the United Carpen- ters’ Council of Chicago. Curcaso, March 22.—There is a prospect of a lively time in the united carpenters’ council of Chicago, which may result in the total disor- ganization .of that central body. Hugh McRay ot Boston and William F. Abram of Detroit, members of the national executive board of the Brotherhood of Car- nters and Joiners of America, are in the city for the pushose of investigating alleged irregu- larities in the council aud. to order tho with. drawal of the brotherhood «delegates in case those charges are found to have any foundh- tion. ‘The charge against the council is failure to roperly account for the funds which have Peck collected from the various unions repre- sented therein. Some of the officers of the council intimate thet this investigation has been brougiit about for the express purposc of disorgunizing the body, and that there is possibility of its having been instigated by the Curpentersand Builders’ Associat The officers of the association, however, imlignautly deny any such action on their part snd claim that the troubie arose out of a mere factional fight among the carpenters themselves. Those who are at the head of the investiga tion assert that there are several thousand dollars unaccounted for by the council and un- } less 1 satisfactory xecounting can be made the delegates from the brotherhood unions will be ordered to withdraw. ego: DEEMING CEAsKS TO DENY. Admits That He o Not Swanston, as Ho med. Penre, West Avstzaitg March 22.—The identity of Deoming, the notorious wife mur- derer, has beon @nlly established. In spite of his persistence in saying that his name was Swanston, @ number of persons well nc- quainted with bim have positively iden- tified him as an individual whom they knew by the name of “Williams.” ‘The — prisoner, finding that it was useless to dis similato further, then — admitted _his identity. He stil denied, however, that he was guilty of the murder for which he was arrested and said that his wife was killed byalover. A.scarch of his belongings, how- ever, disclosed the most damaging proofs of his guilt. His trousers were found to be stained with biood and cement. Mexvovnse, March 22.—The coroner's in- quest on the body of Mrs. Deeming, the uu- fortunate womau who was murdered by her husband in order, it is alleged, that he might be reo to marry another women, was resumed today. ‘The jury inspected the house at Windsor that bad been occupied by the Deemiugs, aud the inquest was then adjourned until April 6 to await the arcival of Deeming, who is now in custody at Perth. ‘The authorities have been very careful to keep from the prisoner ail | nowiedge of the di of the bodies o: his supposed GSrst = and , four ae ee Bain near Liver, partic of which have Toon cabled here, ‘and much interest is manifested as to what Deeming's bebavior will be when he is in- ‘that = of this country and England bave conclusive evidence of the long series of crimes committed by him. —_——— £2.

His services “were called into requisi- tion not only in Civeinnati, but public men of natioyal reputation frequently called bim into their ser ‘and in the national campaign of 1576 he wus identified with the interests of the Jate Samuel J.

It is possible that the Delaware states- man is feeling the sontiment of western dem- ocrats with » view to entering the race for the Presidential nomination at Cl if be finds the conditions favorable. POSSIBLE CONFUSION OVER ELECTING REPUBLICAN DELEGATES, Judge King, cf Youngstown, chairman of the republican staté central committee, after wait- ing for the legiviature to pass the redistricting bill as long as possible, has called a meeting of the committee in this ‘city on the 26th of this month to fix time and place for the next ropub- liean state convention, where delegates at large leoted and also to call district conventions to select district delegates to Minneapolis. It is quite posible that confusion may follow in thie matter. ‘The Sherman and Foraker factions of the re- publican party bave not yet been able to agree upon a re-districting plan. In fact, they nre ax far from agreement now as when the differences first appeared. It is hardly possible that they will get together be- fore the meeting of the stato central eommit- tee. © state is not redistricted by that time, district conventions will be culled accord- ing tothe present districts. Should the re- dustricter paws subsequently and before the dis- tricts have called their conventions, there will certainly be confusion as to whether the old districts should be recognized or the new ones. ‘The democrats havo as yet taken no action looking to a state convention and probably will not until the Ixtest powible moment. State Chairman J. A. Norton is confident that the re- publicans will pass the redistricting bill ina few weoks. WHY ORN. WATSON WAS NOT APPOINTED, ‘The action of President Harrison in overlook- ing Ohio entirely in the appointment of a 60- Heitor general is exactly what was expected by well-posted politicians hero. Ex,Attorney Gen- eral Watson, who wan tho leading candidate for the solicitor generalsbip, would probably have secured it but for the tact that he was not only an avowed Sherman man, but apersonal enemy of ex-Goy. Foraker. the Foraker inflacnce was marshuled against him, and the President could not afford at this time to uasume the enmity of any part ofhis party in Ohio, ‘This was no doubt his reason for choosing a solicitor gen- eral outside of Ohio. POLITICAL NOTES. Congressman Outhwaite has given g¢heral satisfaction to not only his own party but to the people of this district by hie vote against fixing a date for considering the silver ques- tion. The leading Democratic organ, the Post of this city, is inclined to favor free xilver, but is not very decided about it. The rank and file of the party here is strongly opposed to mak- ing silver an issue at this thne and pretty strongly opposed to free silver coinage at any time. Gov. Campbell's statement in en interview at Chicago to the effect that he would not ac- cept the vice presidential nomination for the reason that it would be no honor to him, and that the Vice President is always buried in ob- livion, has been severely citicised by leading democrats here. They think the place on the national democratic ticket which was accepted by ex-Senator Allan G. ‘Thurman as an honor ought not to be refused by ex-Gov. Campbell. ‘The members of the Hill Ciub are somewhat disappointed in receiving @ letter trom the Scnutor's private secFetary respectiully dechin- ing an invitation extended to him iast week to come to this city and address the club. The Hill movement here does not seem to flourish very well and the Seuntor’s failure to respond is not likely to increase the enthusiasm. One does not hear much here in Olio about the Campbell boom, but the mention of the ex- governor's name in connection with the na- tional ticket hus stirred bis enemies im the party toaction and « small Brice Loom is the result. ‘Those familiar with Ohio politica do not need to be told that Gov. Campbell has a reat many bitter enemics in his own party. Fireso are bow Urging that. in case Ohio should be called upon for a candidate tor either piace on the national ticket it should be Brice and not Campbell . ‘They cite the fact that the governor is very unpopular in his own state and could not se- eure a solid delegation, and while in the guber- natorial chair bis ndmivistration was on of errors and blunders. They a4 a soldier, is absolutely without any objectionable features in his record and is udmitted to be'the shrewdest manager in his party, excepting only perhaps Senator Gorma: itis no doubt a fact that here in Ohio Mr. Brice ig much stronger man than ex-Gov. Carnpbell. ‘The Ohio democtacy is thoroughly in favor of tariff reform and cx-Gov. Campbell's course in Congress upon tariff matters is not exactly to the liking of the average Ohio demo- crat, although in the stute cant the tariff was not an issue, they have supported hira pretty well. ‘The visit of Sccrotary of State Ryan, ex- Attorney General Watson, State Executive Chairman William M. Hahn, Senator Phillips and J. P. Smith, editor of the Toledo Com- nercial, to Washington last weck has excited the Foraker men again, and it is likly to pro- long the conflict between the Sherman and Foraker fctions. ‘Theve gentlemen are all recognized us leaders of the Sherman factions and the most vindictive of the encmies of ex- Governor Foraker. They did not leave in a body, and an attempt was made tu conceal their movement, and this, now that the fuct of their visit iy discovered, causes all the more suspicion on the Foraker side. is A Hunting Clergyman Thrown, Loxpox, March 22.—Ike Rev. sir F.
