THE WRANGLE AT WHEELING Two Accounts of the Diffioulty Between Governors Foraker and Wilson, SOUND REPUBLICAN DOCTRINE. ~ Ohio's Governor Tells How He Praached It to the Rebel Soldicrs of Virginia—The Citizens Make an Apology. A War of Wordes. Preranuvra, Angust 28.—(Special Telegram to the B |—I'he chief topic of conversation among the Pittsburg grand army veterans ‘who attended the parade at Wheeling, Fri- day, Is over the words between the repub- lioan governor, Foraker of Ohio, and the democratic governor, Wilson, at the serenade &lven them and Governor Beaver, of Penn- sylvania. General A. L. Pearson, who is a democrat, says that at his request Wilson 8poke after the other governors and adds: *‘His manner was quite as objectionable as his langunge. He pitched his voice and chopped off his sentences in a very bitter manner, Pointing down to the right, he sald, ‘Look up this street; there are banners and flags and stroamers; look down that street and you will see flags, banners and streamers from houses of republicans and democrats, and a great many democrats, 1 tell you, and make no mistake, the blue and the irey are here together. ‘The grey was en- titled as much credit as the blues” At this point, young Lambert, a son of the late Comptroller Lambert, of Pittsburg, said: ‘But were they not traitors?’ Governor Wilson stopped and senm!nfdy ithering bitterness by the pausesaid: “That s an impertinent remark to make twenty years after the war has been ended.’ Captain A. B. Hay took exception to Governor Wil- son’s speech and Governor Foraker was brought back. Ile scored Wilson and ended by saying that such talk from that quarter made him tired. “Wilson then shouted: “We will make you more tired.’ " Captain Hay to-day said that Governor Foraker explained his position upon the rebel flag business as follo#s: It the southorners are loyal, what do they ‘want with the flags? Most ‘of us think that the morth should have the flags, 1f the south is disloyal, that is all the more reason for our rotention of the flags. Let the south come and take the flaxs If they wantthem, [Cheers and hisses.] The north conquered the south with bayonets once; the north is now con- quering the south with capital and enter- T “How about the time when Charleston was rocked in the throes of earthquake?”’ inquiced & southern sympathizer. Dr. Seip, another member of the Union Veteran lufilon. says that the citizens of ‘Wheeling offered every apology for Wilson’s remarks, uylnui it was only “Windy Wil- son”’ opening hls mouth and putting his foot in it again, Governor Foraker's Version. Corumnus, 0., August 28.—[Special Tele- gram tv the BiE.|—Governor Foraker was asked this evening about the trouble between Governor Wilson and himself in Wheeling, ‘W. Va,, at the soldlers’ reunion. He denied that the soldiers retused to walk uuder a pic- ture of President Cleveland hung on the ban- mers across the street. The picture, he said, hung to one side a little, but the soldiers paid no attention to it. As to the political feeling between himself and Governor Wilson, Governor Foraker sald, *“There was a great reunion of soldlers there and a tremendous outpouring of the people. In theevening, while sitting at our hotel talking to Governor Beaver, of Penn- sylvania, and i ech, and he saidy among other things, that those who wore the grey were as brave as those who wore the blue. gome one In the street said, ‘Yes, but they were rebels, weren'tthey?” Governor Wilson answered they wore brouzlit up to believe that under the ect,:,lmmutmn a state had the right to se- *‘We shot thot idea to death on the battle field,” Isaid. “After Wilson got through they called on me.

Ianswered that when called on, and 1 bet I talked more republicanism to those fellows down there than they had ever heard before. There was a good deal of feel- ing and loud noise, but no badzes were pulled off, nor was there any fighting.” s NEEDS OVERHAULING. How The Fish Commission Has De- franded Uncle Sam, WABHINGTON, August 23, —[Speclal Tele- gram to the BEer.]—It is expected that there ‘will shortly be a complete overhauling of the mceounts of the fish commission. As a rule selentific bureaus of the government are dis- posed to squander the public money lavishly and the fish commission has been no excep- tiou to the rule. For years there have been Krave charges made against the methods em- ployed by the deputy commissioner, Major Ferguson. This gentleman is an old-time | democrat and an ex-officer of the contederate army. He has had practical control of the finances of the bureau. He owned a low y_Island in the vicinity of Havre de Gi Maryland, and because it was an ex- cellent location for a fish hatchery he “loaned” it to the government. Since the “loan” went into effect he has succeeded in ing it hilled In two feet above low water- Kk at the expense of the United States and @8 1t Is In the midst of the celebrated Chesa- s e duulnzgrnunds he and his friends ive fine sport in the shooting season. ‘helr lnlootm A bgex. mnl:glnfin ng 'll:{:c expense, is said to be one ot the finest in the ntry.

What Could Have Induced Lockwood to Accept thoe Trivial Position? WasniNaToN, August 28, —[Special to the Beg.]—Politicians from western New York have been guessing for months over a con- undrum which they are still unable to solve. That riddle is: What could have induced Dan Lockwood to accept the comparatively trivial position of United States district at- torney for the northern districtof New York? Lockwood wanted a place in the diplomatio corps. He did not care for one of the first class missions, but he thought that he could 1ill the place as minister to Spain as well as anyone else. He did not get the place and as a consequence he never called upon the president after the week of the inanguration. 1t was a long time before he was recognized atall, and when the president finally did make up his mind to recognize the man who had nominated him tor every political of- fice to which he had becn elected, he selected one of the most.insizniticant in the list. A gentleman from Buffalo who s generally well posted on the inside history of political events in the western end of the empire state solves the conundrum in this way: Lock- wood is a staunch party man, He felt rather disappointed over the manner in which the president ignored hiwm, bat he was not the ind of man to allow his personal feelings to Influence his loyalty to his party. When It became evident that the president was fishing for a renomination Lockwood could s06 that he would be expected by those wlio knew him to mount the rostrum and to again present the name of the man of destiny for the votes of the delegates in the next democratic uational' ~eonvention. As a private citizen he could not very well refuse to dothis when called upon. But the pi dent had issued positive orders to the federal office-holders that they must not mix up in politles. Here was the chance. le was offered the position of United States district attorney and accepted the That re- moves him from the political field. To make the removal more emohatic he resigned his place as member of the New York democratic state committee. After that he was asked if he would perform the nominating cereniony for Clevoland in 1838. He rcrllml that under the orders of the chief magistrate no federal oftice-holder would be allowed to take any lmll in politics. For that reason .it would be wpossible for him to do any more nomi- nating during his service to ihe nation, 1f Cleveland is renominated therefore, he will have to get some one else to present his name, Ordinarily this might not make any difference, 8o long as his name is_presented by some one. But another New York poli- tician is authority for the statement that in the present instance it will maken zreat deal of difference. Soon after the adjournment of congreas the president appointed the Hon. “Dick” Schooley, of Rochestor, to a small consulate in Canada. When Schooley came on to Washington to receive his instructions he was asked how the differences botween Lockwood and the president were patched up. Hereplied: *“Well, you see, the presi- dent is a fatalist and believer in foreordina- tion (sic). Hethinks that in order to be successful next year he must be nominated by the man who has nominated him for all the offices trom sheriff to president. So he sent for Lockwood, (who did not come, by the way), and his brother-in-law, Tom Brown, of Rochester, and a truce was ar- ranged. Lockwood was to be the district at- torney for the northern district of New York and Brown was to name the collector of cus- toms for the Rochester district. Lockwood nccopwd and the president’s ‘kismet’ was all right again.” 1f the Honorable Dick’s ideas are sound Grover Cleveland is doomed, no matter who nominates him be will expect to be elected. An Economical Move, WASHINGTON, August 25.—[Special to the Bee. j—Within ashort time the United States has adopted a system for the transmission of documents to our consuls which has resulted in the saving of a great many hundreds of dollars In the course of the year. Formerly it was the custom to send books and publica- tions intended for the various consulates in Europe, Asia and Africa to the United States distributing agent in London. He would make up the packages for the different con- suls, and would mail them in London, pay- ing the English postage rates on each bundle, ‘This caused the bills ot thedistributing agent to be materially increased. It was discovered 1n the department that United States postage stamps could be printed at very small cost, and as these stamps would carry packages anywhere in the world if thoy were aftixed in America and sent through the American post- oftice, it was determined to adopt a new sys- tem. Now instead of paying intothe British exchecquer several thousand of dollars each year in postaze upon public documents, the aepartment orders an additional supply of postage stamps, and every book intended for American consuls in towns on the European continent is sent directly by mail from Wash- ington instead of through the distributing oftice in London. . Trade Dollars. WASHINGTON, August 28,—[Speelal to the BEE.|—Although the flow of trade dollars to- ward the treasuryof the United States has practically ceaseq, it Is believed that there are still a great many of these coins in the hands of the people which will probably never he redeamed. Up to the present time there have been about 7,500,000 *‘trades’ ex- changed tor standard dotlars. This sum ex- ceeds by only a few thousands the figures which were estimated to represent the num- ber held in the country. The date for the final redemption of the coins wns fixed by congress, and the time cannot be extended except by congressional action, This wul, n all probability, not be given, and holders of the debased coins who fail to return them to the treasury berfore next Saturday will havo to sell them for old silver. It 'is be- lieved that the greater number of those which will not come in by next Saturday are held by people who hoard their savings in old stockings and other outof the way places, and that these people will not be heard from because of their ignoranceo f the law. No one can judge with any certainty of the number 80 held, but zood guessers figure that there will be several hundred thousand unre- deemed “‘trades” after September 3, Baird's Successor. WASHINGTON, August 28.—|Special to the BeEe.|—Scientific circles are greatly stirred up over the problem, *‘Who will succeed Prof. Balrd as commissioner of fish and fish- eries?” The law is such that the field of eli- gible candidates is exeeedingly circum- scribed. It is thought that the only man who can fill all the requirements of the law is Major Ferguson, and if he 1s appointed he would have to serve without any compensa- tion whatever. He is at present the deputy commissioner and his salary is paid out of the general appropriation.” This could not be done if he were promoted. In consequence it 1s thought that the vacancy may not be filled until congress amends the law. B TROUBLE IN KEY WEST. Probability That Havana Will Declared in a State of Siege, NEW ORLEANS, August 28.—A speclal to the Picayune from Key West, Fla., says: Ad- vices recelved here last night state that the greatest excitement prevails in tavana, oc- casioned by the recent acts of Captain Gen- eral Marine in taking possession of the custom house and placing the of- ficlals under arrest. The city is in charge of regular troops and the situation becomes daily wmore desperate, recalling events In 1571, A reign or terror prevails and it i8 expected that Havana will ba de- clared In a state of slege, Already several conflicts have oecurred between troops and civilians, resulting in the killing of some and the wounding or others. Cap- taln General Marine has issued a proclama- tion calliug on the rioters to maintain order. Otherwise severe measures will be adopted to uphold the law. The volunteers, who are opposed to Marin, and are encouraged therein by political bodies desirous of his re- moval have joined the rioters, Several meet- ings have been held in the park, where cheers of “viva Salamanca” were given, and cries o f “down with Marin,” *“The city is placarded with a call for a gen- eral mass meeting at. the park to- picht and roguesting all to bring arms. The all is believed to have emanated trom ine voluutéers, and serious trouble is expected.

Those acquainted with Gen- eral Marin state that he will ecarry out his poliey of purifying the public service regard- less of consequences, and a feeling of un- easiness permeates every branch thereof. - AGAIN URITIVAL Fears That the Utes Will be Joined By the Uncompahgres. DuxveR, Colo., August 25, —[Special Tele- gram to the Ber. ] —As far as can be learned, the Ute war is unchanged. A courier ar- rived from Meeker yesterday, bringing the information that 600 Utes were camped on the Rangley battle grounds and were being held back by two companies of colored troops from Fort Duchesne. (General Rear- don has obtained information that there were four tribes of Utes in the battle. They are White river, Uintab, true Utes and Uncom- pahgres. There are 1,800 bucks on the reser- vation. Some of the Indians in the battle were Uncompabhgre policemen, and if any of them were killed trouble will result, as the Uncompahgres are a wild, excita- ble tribe and would readily show fight. Estes, the ehief of the Uncompahgre reservation is expected to turn out as soon as Information of the tight reached thera and as the two places are only thirty miles apart it has already been carried. The situation 18 really critical and the requests of officers in the field and General Reardon, for troops are justitied as the Indians are nearer rein- forcements by a hundred miles than the state troops are, If further trouble can be avoided until Governor Adams and General Crook arrive to-morrow they may possibly get the Indians to consent o go back to Ulintah without further war. Some think if Colorow does go back to Uintah he will re- main only until the soldiers return to their post and the militia men to their homes when he will descena upon the unprotected settlers and avenge death of his eizht bucks. Lieu- tenant Folsom who was fatally wounded Thursday died at 11 o'clock Friday morning, His body will be taken to Aspen for burial , e e, RKREPUBLICAN CLUB CONVENTION. The Project For It Taking Definite Shape in New York. New Yonk, August 28.—[Special Tele- gram to the Beg.|—The suggestions for a big national convention of republican clubs has crystalized into definite plans. It has been decided that such a gathering shall be had shortly after the election for the purpose of discussing the plans and the platform of next year's campaign, The convention will be held here, probably in the Academy of Music. ln a talk with Heiry Gloason, secre- tary of the special committee on the subject appointed by the New York Republican club, the fact was developed that already there are assurances of an attendance of from 5,000 to 10,000 delegates, representing over 200 clubs. An iwmportant fact in connection with the movement, and one which has greatly en- couraged its promotors, Is that since the sub- }ect has been azitated, between thirty and orty new republican clubs have been or- ganized, all of which write in enthusiastic terws of the idea and promise representation.
