WasniNaron, March 11.—The vote on the bonded extension bill helps to widen the breach between the Carlisle and Randall wings of the party. The Car- lisle people are a good deal disgruntled that Randall should have beaten them in their pet scheme, and Randall and his followers are quite comfortable over the fact that they did beat them. The wool people are chuckling over the defeat of the whisky bill. Of course they did not openly oppose it, but they recognized the fact that the whisky people did not rally to the support of the wool bill. *The fact is,” saild one of the wool men to our correspondent, ‘‘we who are in {avor of the restoration of the wool tariff are not going to worry ourselyes and rush to the support of the whisky bill, These people oppose our measure and talk about special legislation, and yet they want legislation which 1s more de- cidedly special in its nature than our bill. Tt looks very bad for this demo- cratic house to be running around pro- tecting whisky when they refuse to pro- tect a million wool growers.” THE SOUTH FOR ARTHUR, Special Dispatch to The Ber. WaisniNGroN, March 11.—The pro- nounced sentiment in the Louisiana re- publican convention in favor of the re- nomination of President Arthur will probably be re-echoed by the republicans of nearly every state in the south. A prominent and wealthy Kentucky repub- lican bere recently said in conversation with your correspondent that he had no doubt of the election of a strong Arthur delegation in Kenwucky. Inquuics among southern republicans living here show this sentiment will be very strong in all the southern states, with perhaps one or two exceptions. North Carolina will probably be for Sherman, as it was four years ago. A JIOG GAME THAT TWO CAN PLAY Special Dispatch to Tir B, ‘WasHiNG1oN, March 11.—Davis, of Illinois, made an argument before the house commerce committee to-day in fa- vor of retaliatory logislation for the treat- ment of the hog abroad. Heargued that recent official statements show that our meats exported are entirely healthful, and that their exclusion is _from political or commercial motives, and not those of safety for the people, asis claimed. The sub-committee is understood to be favor- able to Davis’ proposition, but whether the full committee is so0 is uncertain. The matter is to be considered by the full committee on Friday. THE MEXICAN TREATY RATIFIED, Regular Pross Dispatches, WasHiNgToN, March 11.—After four hours consideration in secret session to- day, the senate ratified the Mexican treaty, 43 to 20. FORTY-EIGHTH CONGRESS, BENATE, ‘W ASHINGTON, March 11.—Mr. Allison (rep., Towa) presented a memorial and joint resolution of the legislature of Towa urging the national government to avail itself of the power granted by the consti- tution to regulate the commerce of states, and praying congress to pass lawa in pur- suance of that power for the regulation of railroad fares and freights at such fig- ures as will allow a reasonable return, and no more, on the amount actually expended in the construction of roads. “The committee on Indian affairs re- ported favorably the bill to ratify the agreement with the Shoshones, Bannocks and other Indians for the salecf portions of their lands. Calendared. Mr. Morgan (dem,, Mo.), from the committee on public lands, presented a report from that committee in support of the bill reported by that committee yes- terday, to provide for the settlement of the rights of states, persons or corpora- tions interested in land grants which may hereafter be fofeited. . l}}dll were introduced and referred as ollo: By Mr. Miller (rep., N.

On motion of Mr. Townshenl (dem , AT, Il ) the house went into committee of thsl whole on the post oftice appropriation bill. A BOCUS ARCHBISHOP. His Daring Imposition Upon Archbishop Gibbons, of Baltimore, Mr. Bingham (rep., Pa.,) opposed the bill, saying the recent reduction of post- age must not be made an excuse for a limited appropriation. It was the pur- Kone of the democrats to claim that they ad cut down the expenses of the post office department. f: they did so it would be without regard to the demands of the service. Mr. Holman (dem., Ind.) defended the bill, and denied that it in uny way tend- od to cripple the service. On the con- trary, it was oaloulated to cause increased efficiency. Mr. E;chmhund deprecated bringing politics into the consideration of a bill of this character. He compared the bill with the bill of this fiscal year, to show that the republican party of the last house had made a poor pratense of econ- omy in order to throw the necessity of passing a deficiency appropriaticn upon the present congress. Townshend then proceeded to arraign the republican party for past offenses in the administration of government for the last 156 years, No American citizen could read the recordof that party without a face crimsoning with shame for his country. Many of the founders of that party were pure and no- ble men, but where were they! Gone. ‘When the republican party was convert- ed into a spoils-hunting band, they left it and joined the ouly political party whicii had patriotic ideas. Townshendcontinued in this strain, referring to corrupt rings, plundering treasury star route investiga- tions, ete. The speech was received with applause by the democrats and laughter and applause by the republi- Being a Guest at His House and Saying Mass Each Morning, Cincinnati and Rochester Catho- lics Also Victimized by Him, Exposed at the Latter Place, He Decamps with the Collection, His Deficiency in Latin Shows Him Not to be n Peiest at All, A PRETENDER IN PURPLE, HE VICTIMIZES THE VICARS, Special Dispatch to THE Brg, Bavrmore, March 11,—A bogus arch. bishop has been imposing on the clergy of the cathedral here, and information has been roceived that he has fled from Rochester with several hundred dollars. The man called upon Archbishop Giib- bons, of this city, last fall, and pre- sented CREDENTIALS FROM CARDINAL M'CLOSKEY, of New York, introducing himself as archbishop of a diocese in Chaldea. He gave his name as DBarjona. For a week he was a guest at Archbishop Gibbons’ residence, and said mass every morning at the cathedral. From this city he pro- ceeded to Cincinnati, thence to Roches- ter. Here he began collecting funds for St. Joseph's Redemptorist church. Bar- jona always o.cupied a place in thoe sanct- vary cans. Mr. Belford (rep., Col.) thought the gentleman who attempted to lecture the republican party should remember his own party had not the courage to con- sider either the wool tarifl’ or the whisky bill. The bill having been read by sections, Mr. Horr (rep., Mich.) moved to increase to 12,250,000 the compensation of post- masters. Pending action, the committee rose. Mr. Payson (rep., IIL.), from the com- mittee on public lands, reported back the resolution calling on the secretary ot the interior for information touching lands patented to the Burlingtor & Mgiuouri River railroad. Adopted. Adjourned. MORRISON’S MISCRIEF, HIS BILL TO DIVIDE THE DEMOCRACY. ‘WasHiNGToN, March 11.—The major- ity and minority reports of the ways and means committee on the Morrison tariff’ bill were submitted to the house tc-day. The division in the committee was upon strict party lines. Morrison was asked when he proposed to call the bill up for action. e said did not know. The other members of the committee express- ed the opinion that it would come up next week. THE MAJORIRY REPORT, After. referring to the clause in the president’s message which speaks of the work of the taritf commission, and quo- ting from the report of that commission to congress, in which it estimates the average at between 20 and 25 per cent, and to the statement of the chairman of the senate on finance in presenting the bill that would reduce the revenue $45,- 000,000, it gos on to say that these pre- dictions have not been verified by the operations of the law, so that the ques- tion still presses, What legislation is neceszary to relieve the people from UNNECESSARY BURDENS, The committee find that for the first six months, during which the new law embodying the ideas of the tariff commis- sion was in force, the duties paid wera nearly 41 per cent of the value of tho goods imported; that for the correspond- ing period of the year 1882, under the old law, the duty paid was somewhat less than 42} per cent of the value of the goods imported; thatthe exact average of the reducticn made by the new law in comparison with the old law, was only one and seventy four hundredths per cent, The report continues: This exhi- bit of a reduction in rates, made March 3, 1883, amounting to 1.74 per cent of the duty, is subject to an important modification resulting from changes in value and other conditions, some of which will increase and others reduce the comparative ad valorem rates. THE NOMINAL REDUCTION made by the proposed bill is twenty per cent, or one-fifth the present rates. With the Morrill tariff limitations in the bill, and the liquor and silk schedules omitted, as they are, the reduction on a basisof fast year’s imports will not exceed fifteen and seventy-four hundredths per cent on the whole importation of duti- able goods, The report then speaks of wood, lumber, coal, and salt being put on the free list as articles of universal use and of necessity to all people, and continues: THE DECKEASE IN THE REVENUE as shown by the receipts under the new law, other than that resulting from the nominal reduction of 1.74 per cent, re- sults from the falling off to the value of nearly $256,000,000 of 1mports in the first half year under the now law, compared with the first half of the previvus year under the old law,” o — The Crouch Murder Trial, JacksoN, Mich.,, March 11,—In the Crouch murder examination to-day the entire forenoon was spent in endeavoring to wring from George Balles, the colored boy who slept in the house at the time of the tragedy and gave the alarm in the morning, a difference with his former statements, but without success. Every move, action and word he described re- peatedly alike, Although the attorneys on both sides endeavored to cross him to show he knows more than he told, they were without success, He refused to get into the trunk he said he laid in v night and stayed there five hours, be- cause ho gaid he didn't think it would benefit anybody. He did not have to, but he had no doubt that if necessary he could crouch up in there and stay just as long as he did that night. He thought the reason it did not make him stiff and wore was because of the excitement. The court room is crowded every day. There are a dozen more witnesses yet to be sworn by the prosecution. AT HIGH MASS. His demeanor during the service made several members of the congregation sus- picious, and after the mass they com- municated their suspicions to the rector. The self-styled archbishop was ques- tioned, and was unable to give the abso- lution of the church IN TIE LATIN LANGUAGE, in which he said he was proficient. A few moments later he disappeared from the pastorato with $210 raised at the col- lection, leaving his baggage behind him. Two of the prieats followed and captured him at the railroad depot, where he re- funded the amount of the morning col- lections. He was then allowed to go free. The priests of St.- Joseph’s, Rochester, say he was not a priest at all. e ——— KEIFER AND BOYNTON. WHAT SECRETARY FOLGER KNOWS, Wasmivgros, March 1L —Secrotary Folger appeared before the Koeifer-Boyn- ton committee this morning, bearing sev- eral papers on file in his department, touching on the character of Charles . Garfiold and W. B. Moore, who are ex- pected to be called as witnesses. As the papers were original ones and as the present was the proper time to submit them as evidence, it was agreed if Gen. Boynton should desire to obtain them, copies could be procured from the de- artment hereafter, U. H. Painter, Journalist, was the first witness examin- ed. His testimony related to the meet- ing of correspondents at which resolu- tions of censure of Speaker Keifer were adopted. KEIFER BEING CALLED, contradicted the statement made by Boynton that on March 1, 1882, he had a conversation with Keifer in regard to the appointment of Jorgensen as receiver of the land oftice at Walla Walla to succeed Reed, of Ohio. The witness’ attention being called to the testimony bearing up- on the interview in Boynton’s office on the night of March 1, at which the tariff bill was discussed, he said he had a con- versation upoa the tariff bill with Boyn- ton hefore February 27, At that time the tariff bill was on the speaker’s table, He pointed out the rule which would re- quire him, if a point of order were made, to decide that the bill must go to the committee of the whole, which would de- feat it. Their conversation could not have taken place later than the 27th, be- cause on that day a resolution was adopted in the house making it in order at any time to TAKE THE TARIFF BILL from the speaker's table and declare a disagreement in the senate amendments. The examination was suspended to allow Speaker Carlisle to take the stand. He knew no rule which could provent a con- ference report from being considered by the house upon its reception. Repre- sentative Reed gave similar ovidence. On cross-examination, Reed said he was aware Blaine was at the capital on the Saturday before the passago of the tariff bill, but did not know he went to see the speaker for the purpose of overcom- i&g the koppunition Pme biil to which e speaker was sup to be a party. Boynton inquired “whether if ucB:.(u{r ence committee made material changes in the bill and a point of order was raised that on that account the bill must go to the comuwittee of the whole and the speaker had declared the point well taken and the house had sustained him, the bill could have been defeated. Reed—Olviously, it could. KEIFER AND THE FRESS, Keifer was further examined and de- nied the sworn statement made by Bar- rett, of The Boston Advertiser, that he, Keifer, had said: *I don't care a d—n for the press.” He had used no expres- sion in condemnation of the press and had no reason for doing i.. OTHER WITNESSES, C. A. Bowersex, of Ohio, was called, and testified to the general good reputa- tion of Charles 8 Gartield. Being cross- examined, witness said ho heard Garfield was indicted in Indiana but did not know the cause of his arrest, Martiv Perky, Philetus Smith, D C, Baxter, M M. Bouthew, D R. Willet and G. W. Hopins, of Ohio, gave similar evidence. They were all asked by Boynton in ref erence to the arrest of Garfield in Obio on the charge of counterfeiting, but the ——e Southern Immigration.

Thero was a slight improvement over yesterday in the atocker trade, yet the domand is slow and uncertain, while pricesare 26@H0c low~ or; 1,360@1,600 th export grades sold at $06 60@6.70; good to choico shipping, 1,20021,350 1bs, $5.90@6.40; common to medium, 1,000@1,200 Ibs, §5.25@5.80, CERBALS BETTER, The markets were all lower at the opening, but only for a time, after which followed a substantial rise and in cereals prices remained very close to the highest point of the day throughout the re. mainder of the day, and this in apite of the heavy offorings. The tablo prepared by the secretary of the Chicago board of trade, showing the visible supply of grain March 8, as compared with the week’s previous, showed a decrease of 560,000 bushels in wheat and an increase of 943, 000 bushels of corn. THE MARKET FOR WHEAT was active throughout the entire session v and quite strong at the close The mar- ket opened j@jc lower, influenced by the fine local weather, in addition to which the weakneas late yestarday brought out considerable *‘long” wheat. The ‘‘shorts,” however, covered freely, the demand was active, and prices were advanced 13 above tho inside figures and ruled strong. The market finally closed jc higher than the closing yesterday. The improved feeling in this market, as well as in other cereals, was in part due to the govern- ment showing that 67 per cent of the presont crop had gone into consumption, Dispatches from the principal points in Kansas reported cold weather and dam- ages. CORN ACTIVE, Trading was active in corn; pricas were lower early, but - advanced materially later. The weakness in wheat at the opening aifected corn and the market opened | to } cent lower, but an active demand sprang up, with tho *‘shorts” covering freely, and this advanced prices 1 to 1} cents, finally closing with prices 4 cent higher than yesterday.
