The purchase of Cuba by the United States is again being agitated, The dis- patches from Washington inform us that a part of Minister Foster's mission here is to aid in the negotiations to be taken by our government and that of Spain for publican majority. So far as congros- sional districts are concorned, only two of those not now in the hands of the democrata stand in any considerable dan- gor.

The Episcopal council of Nebraska does not seem to be very unanimous in its choice for bishcp. The favorite, so far, is Dr. Worthington, of Detroit, who is only two votes ahead of the other can- didatee. The dark horse will probably come in ahead on the homestretch. It is stated on very reliable authority that Samuel .J. Tilden is one of the most extensive amateur breedeas of fancy barn- ard fowl. He has all varieties of tur oys, chickene, geese, ducks, etc.—Alba- ny ZTimes. ‘We hopo not. Mr. Tilden is game, but he is not in the chicken business, Mr. Hayes is running on the platform of the American hen, and he played Mr, Tilden fowl once. Mr. Tilden may resume busi- ness at the old stand. Mr. Hayes never will.—Kansas City Zimes, The old stand is in *‘Cipher Alley,” but Mr. Tilden is a good deal more likely to climb the golden stair than he is to sit in the presidential ch GENERAL Bristow's reply to Wayne MacVeagh's bitter but uncalled for letter is manly, dignified and complete. It leaves Mr. MacVeagh in a position but little better than that in which Mr. Edmunds left William Walter Phelps. He refused to enter into all the minute and potty equabbles with which his correspondent had sought to engage him and put the whole question of the presidency on broad national grounds. In doing this he has acted like a statesman anda patriot. There is no reason whatever why the question of se- lecting a president should be dragged in the dirt of personal jealousies and quar- rels. 1t is a matter of too grave impor- tance for that. Ar last the railroad commission of Towa is in a}fair way]to bo something more than & well-paid and well-dressed- figure-head. It has begun a suit at Ma- son City in the name of the State of Towa to compel the central of Iowarail. roads to run its trains into Northwood. The commission ordered the railroad to do this several months ago. It persisted in its refusal and the suit was brought under the provisions of the act passed by the last legislature. This is nota very important improvement, because the commission is still powerless to pre- vent extortion or robbery or discrimina- tion. But it is still something that the railroads cannot laugh at every order of the commission. The result of the trial will be waited for with great interest.

THE SUBLIME AND RIDICULOUS, Tarning From a Lawyer to the Marie Garrison Case Now York Times, “Somabody says ‘the leaves of memory seem to make a mournful rustling in the dark,’ " observed ex-Senator Roscoe Conkling dreamly, yesterday afternoon. “These memoranda,” pointing to the papers connected with the Marie-Garri- #on case, ‘‘may be said to be just the same thing.” "It was evident that Mr. Conkling was in a philosophical mood. His client, Mr. Robert L. Cutting, was also apparently far away from the suit in question. His spirit was undoubtadly in Wall street. Nothing but his corporeal entity, which was, however, sufficiently extensive, was brought into the little fourth story room at No. 160 Broadway, before Referee Dwight. *Mr. Cutting,” said lawyer Day, re- calling that portly gentleman from the window where he was straining his neck to catch & glimpse at Wall street, “‘give us details of the expenditures and dis- bursementsmade or paid out by you as treasurer or financial agent of the com- mittee of stockholders of the Miesouri Pacific railvoad,” As usual, objections were interposed to this query, **We don’t want to know.” explained Mr. Choate, “‘abouc their lunches, their drinks, their petty de- baucheries, what they do by day and what they do by night; but we are anx- ious to get at what they did inconsistent with their claim. We wouldn't like the (uestion to be to broad,” he added amea- bl “The learned counsel,” observed Mr. Cookling, with his most seraphic ox- pression, *‘must be still reeling among the fumes and reveries of the Union Club, and_his recent exploits in_that re- gion, Still it is very kind of him to support me in my objection. 1 tender him my grateful acknowledgments.” Mr. Chonte, however, subsequently characterized Mr. Cutting’s remarks as inconsistent, and brought a storm down on his head. “T don't know any excuse,” said Mr. Conkling, *for a remark from Mr. Choate that reflects upon such a gentlo- man as Mr. Cutting, It will perhaps be Blaine. But the most interesting gossip we have had this past week about figures comes from Pennsylyania. If it is true, no wonder the friends of Blaine are a lii- tle nervous, Congressman Barr, of Har- risburg, asserts ‘‘that tho vote of the Pennsylvania delegation at Chicago will be a surprise party to Mr. Blaine's light- ning calculations,” The subtle Col. Matt Quay and the handsome and plausible Magee sowed seed last winter, and they did so after a number of interviews with the administration that lasted tillthe cock crew. So it happened when the conven tion met Blaine's friends got the resolu- tions, but Quay and Magee took the del- gates, something that has happened be- fore in Pennsylvania to the sorrow of Mr. Blaine's friends. It is now clamed by those who aro keeping tally of the can- vass for Arthur's nomination that forty- three of the delegation will vote for Ar- thur and seventeen for Blaine, The ad- ministration tally-sheet men also assert that after Connecticut gives its com- plimentary vote to Hawley a majority of its delegation will go to Arthur, This seems probable, because the two mug- wumps of the Connecticut republicans, Hawley and Postmaster Sperry, of New Haven, are as warm supporters of Arthur as there are in the country. Such are examples of the way in which the friends of Mr. Arthur are setting down their figures, and if they are cor- rect Gov. Foster is probably right when he says that the convention may be the shortest one on record. To be sure, Mr, Foster also predicts that it may be the longest, but he says that if either of t. two leading candidates gets over : votes on the first ballot he will be nomi- natéd without much cersniony on the second, and Mr, Foster's condition is Arthur should about stand eack other off, then there may come a long contest, be- cauge all the politiciana say it has been tions or subplots, and the new rules by which the convention will be guided will make stampeding toany candidate almost impossible, much less disposition on the part of Blaine’s friends here to toss their hats up than thero was a week ago, and there is necessary to say that I utterly deny the statement of the counsel, and I denounce what he said as without warrant and with- out excuse,” “Am I to be called to_account for it outside this room!” aeked Mr. Choate, “I don’t know what your habits are in that respect,” retorted the ex-Senator. “‘Well,"” said Mr, Choate, in a concilia- tory tone, “I will pacify Mr. Conkling and say ‘apparently’ inconsistent. “‘Gentlemen,” said the Referee, ‘I am going to be very peremtory with you. The time for vacmtion arrives, and here we are.” ““You must want « yacation,” said Mr. Conkling, “‘it would be monstrous in us to prevent your taking it.” “‘Neverthelcss,” said Referece Dwight resignedly, I have given up my idea of gUing to Burope. Marie versus Garrison has put a stop to that”. 1 do think,'” said Mr. Conklmyg, ‘‘that this cass is entirely unprecedented-it is a mere indafinite outstretching of stepping stones inte' faturity.” “T’ll vacate the order of referenes if you will,” remarked Mr. Choate philan- thropically.
