EIGHTEENTH YEAR. TIIS EYES TURNED T0 ALBANY, Grover Grooming Whitney for the New York Governorship. THE FOURTH IN THE DISTRICT. Congressman Morrow Says the Coast 18 Sausfled With Harrison's Record on Chinese Legisia- tion — Capital Notes. Hill Has an Opponent. WasHINGTON Buneau Tie Osana Bre, 513 FOURTRENTH STREET, WasniNGros, D, C., July 8. There are reports here of a strong movs ment to make Sccretary Whitney the demo- cratic candidate for governor of New York, in order to strengthen the presidential ticket in that state. It is conceded that Senator ‘Warner Miller will be the republican cand date, and that the campaign will be fiercer than it ever has been. Governor Hill is not believed by the administration to be as strong before the people of New York as Secretary Whitney would be. It is stated that Mr. Whitney would be very glad to make the race, #nd that his announcement soveral days ago that he would retire from the cabinet was made at a time when he thought his nomination for the governorship was probable, and he intended it to pave the way for his retirement from the cabinet and his entry into the politics of his own state in & more positive manner than he has been en- gaging in it during the past three years. Friends of the president say that if it were not, for the fact that Governor Hill is considered very strong with the saloon and whisky clements in New York, the administration would pit Whitney againsg him for the nomination and conduct the campuign independent of the Hill hosts. Y CELEBRATING THE DAY, Neither house of congress will be in sess- sion to-morrow. The Fourth of July is a legal holday im the District of Columbia. The departments will also be closed, and there will be a day of rest if not of jollifica- tion. A large number of the legislature have gone to the reunion at Gottysburg, Pa., while many others have accepted invitations to deliver orations at various points the country. Many excursions down the Pa- tomacand over the railroads wili be run, and it is probable that the element which gives Washington life will be out of the District of Columbia on the Fourth. About twenty members of congress went to New York this afternoon for the purpose of attending the centennial celebration by the Tammany soclety of the declaration of indepedence. AL HARRISON'S CINNESE RECORD 0, K. 1y's New York Tribune has u lengthy interview with Kepresentive Morrow of Cal- ifornia on Gener son’s Clinese re ord. As stated in dispatches some time ago, Mr. Morrow, in the carly part of this spring, when General Harrison was first spoken of for the presidential nomination, at the request of his friends in California, Jooked up the Indianian’s record on the Chit nese question. Mr. Morrow, since the no nation of General Harrison, has again gone over the congressional records and journals of the senate committes on foreign relations, and in this interview he gives in detail evory action of General Harrison on the Chinese question, both while the various mcasures that were proposed when he was in the se ate committee, and while they were before the senate for con- sideration. The record proves to be one which prompts the Tribune in an- nouncing that it gives him more strength be fore the country than if he never had any- thing to do with the subject ut ull, becauss it shows that he 18 a caveful thinker, a sound reasoner und is an ardent und consistent friend of the American luborer and is op- posed to the importation of Chinese lubor. "Phie Tribune regards General Harrison's at- titude towards Chinese immigration us strong as that of any other prominent man in the republican party, not excepting Mr. Blame, Mr. Morrow says Cencral Harri- son favored additional legislation, and in a conversation he had with him in 1556, while they were on the way to attend a dinner givén by the Clover club of Philadelplia, General Harrison told n, (Mr, Morrow,) that he was not only in favor of further legislation in restraint of Chinese immigration, but that he was in fa- vor of a new treaty that would for absolute exclusion.

Mr. Morrow cites the Congress. jonul record a number of times to prove his statements. The rd, he says, shows General Harrison to be in favor of ‘a_clean cut ubrogation of the existing treaty with its anoying limitations and excluding the China men absolutely, which is preeisely the posi tion oceupied by the scnators and represcnta- tives from the Pacific coust. Mr. Morrow says that us president, General Harrison would enforce the treaty and whatever log. islation congress might cuact to restrict Chi- nese emigration, BELVA A CANDIDATE FOR HEVENUE. Mrs. Belva A, Lockwood, candidate of the equal suffrage party for the presidency proposes to take the field in person about ti middle of the present month and make canvass of every state. Unlike the other cundidates, she will expeet an adinission fee from those who desire to Lear her specch, for she is after money us well ' as glory, il will - make this — campaign vy her aus she did the last. Helva suys that she is more confident of election this time than she was in 1584, and prowmises to_give both Clevelund and Harrison positions in hor cabinet, Sk says that she has no particular objection to either the republican or the democratic ean didute, because both 00d wives and arc influenced by them, but she thinks that the time has come whon a woman can be trustod to steer the ship of state.

Mr. Bayne of Pennsylvania, in supporting the motion, expressed himsclf as opposed to a reduction of the tariff, and as in favor of the ropeal of the tobaceo tax and the tax on alcohol used 1 the arts. This, -he thought, would reduce the surplus as far us it should be reduced if the government intended to do justica to the widows and children of the soldicrs of the war. He said the two tickets before the country to-day represented two ideas—the republican ticket that American markets aré for Americans, and the other that the American market should be open to the world, Mr. Bcott of Pennsylyania chaczed tho ro- publican party with havinz deserted its platform of 1834 for a revision of tariff, and with going before the country in 1358 asking the people for their suffrage on a principle wieh it had never before advocated.

These girls had a habit of spending the first two-thirds of every night in hammocks with their hest young men comfortably ensconsced by their side, and thoir insane sereeching and insane small talk kept the weary St. Paul from sleeping the sleep that wouid otherwise have been his portion. No wonder he com- plalued of such a thorn in the flesh. Poor man, he had uncomplainingly met and over- come the world, the flesh and the devil, but the nightly turmoil of that trio of Beatrice girls and their best fellows was too much for him. At the New York Chautauqua, we are told, they have a rule that all lights must be extinguished and all noises must cease after 10 o'clock at night. They have also vigilant policemen to see that this rule is obeyed by the tent-dwellers, This is the kind of a rule and the kind of policemen we need at our as- sembly.

Dr. Hurlbat, secretary of the C. L. C., arrived yesterday morning, At 5 o'cloc all members of the . L. S. C. met at the hall in the grove to hear him_talk upon th subjects of interest to the circle, He was given u hearty greeting, and expressed him- self us greatly pleased’ with the signs of growth and prosperity visible in every de. purtment of the Nebraska assembly. He then gave a brief history of the Chi organization of this country, It 1575, and had about turee hundred members.

L. S.C.is ar: ruyed. It believes that both the rich and the poor should be cultured. The rich need culture that they may know how to use the money they have accumulated, and how to get the best out of life. The poor need cul ture because it will lift. them up, will make them better and happier aud make their world larger and brighter, One who loves good books need never be ionely or without something of worth to think about, no_ mat ter how humble and retired his lot in life wuy ve. The books that a person reads will lly show what kiud of a person he is, Dr. Hurlbut then pictured the daily rounds of some of the luboriug classes, especial furiners’ wives, The average’ womun wi does her own housework may look through all the duys of forty y of her life and every Monday of dn- e was a wushday. The drudging monotony in the lives that many working people” live is enough to drive them erazy. Good books will prove the best antidots in the world for such toilsome monotony. The second principle on which the C. T. C. is founded is that everybody can have alture. In this country, and especially in the west, education is 80 cheap and ovpor- tunities are so many, almost every young man can go to colleze; und those who cannot 80 to collezc can joiu' the C. L. § C., which will furnish wany advantages. Very few realize the an.ount that can be done by the devotion of un Iour a day 10 the purpose of culture The third principle cof the C. L. 8.

He was pleased to say that this was the largest class that has yet graduated at any western assembly. Mrs. Mary Seathrope, of Michigan, lec- tured in_the pavidon at 8 o'clock Inst éven- ing, Befo e the lecture began President I, 1. Foss made a statencnt of the financial standing of the assembly. He also said that the growth of the assembly seemed to the masagement to demand additional build ings. The attendance has almost doubled that of last year, and the moncy that has thus far come in is nearly twice as much us came in_during the same time last year. The trustees would like to erect during the ming year a_hotel costing £10 000, and a 000 pavilion like the one at the New York Chautauqua. It is thought best to procur the money for those buildings by a_furthe sale of stock. Somn of the stockholders are not willing that stock continue to_be sold at par, but the majority are willing that for the present the prico remam 10 per share. Stock can be bought at any time by applying to the president, secretary or superintendent of grounds.

The main reason was found in the fact that other means have been proven wholly inadequate to meet, the demands of the case. Mrs. Lathrop then gave a bricf review of the agencies that have thus far been employed. The church has long been more or less active in the temperance mov ment, but has accomplished comparatively little because of divisions about petty sect and denominational questions, The Wash- ingtonian movement and the crusades bath did a good work, but both have had their da Other means have been tried, but ali have fallen short of ultimate triumph. Mrs. Lathrop muintained that the temperance question has not suffered any loss by coming into the realm of political discussis In conclusion Mrs. Lathrop said: aloon is entrenched like Gibraltar in the wrong attitude of the government, but I be- licve the child is born that will see the closed door of the lastsaloon inour country.” Mrs. Lathrop has be called the most logical of all peakers on the temperance question. She certainly is both eloquent nd able. Her large lience showed great appreciation of her lecture, To judge by the frequent applause the audience was largely de up of prohibitionists. Plie 6:80 praver meeting this morning was v Colonel Cowden and the subject for con- ation was the results of faithful chris- tian work.

The various classes held their usual fore- noon scesions, but, most of the class exercises were ommitted this aftereoon becanse of the wyers' programme. At 10 o'clock tho dies of the W. C.

The bishops began to arrive half past 10, and cannot be accused of coming in state, There werc only three or four carringes, the majority favor- ing hansom cabs, while a large number walked across Westminister bridge, Bishop Potter coming in what is slangily called here a “growler,” withno signs of public ex citement. The third Lambeth conferenc was opened, and nearly all the bishops who have accepted invitations were present. They robed, in the guard room. The junior colonial prelates walked first in the procession. The tall and commanding form of the archbishop of York towered above his brethren, but it is noteworthy how many more intellectual prelates—Durham, Gloucester, Bristol, Ripon —were small of stature, and the plelate not tall. The American bishops walked by the side of the home prelates and in the rest of the procession, preceded by Sir John Deane, the ar general, Sir John tCopy [ about Hassard the principal ____registerer General and Sir John Hanham, the appaticor general, came the Archibishop of Canterbury, having on his sides the Archbishop of York and the Bishop of London, ana followed by the Dean of Windsor and his other chap- lains. ‘Che scenc in the chapel was uniqu there being nearly one hundved and fifty bishops present from all parts of the world, excreising their functions when at home under a variety of most dissimilar circum- stances, The *Veni Creator” was the introit and the Archbishop of Canterbury was, of course the celebrant. After service the archbishop entertained his Episiscopal brethern at lunch- con and the first session commenced at half past 2 with nothung occurring to-day of mo- ment.

I0WA'S POPULAR PROBLEM, The Railroad Question the One @ Greatest Concern. A BITTER CONTEST TO RESULT{ The University Investigation So Fag Proves the Scandalous Charges to be Without Foundatios A Smallpox Scare. A Long Struggle Begun Drs Morxes, Ta., July 8.—(Special to Tay Brr.]—The railrond problem in Towa is jus{ now the one of popular interest and to many people the one of greatest concorn, Tha railroad commissioners have been enjoined by the courts from putting into effect theie new schedule of rates. 1hey are thereforq waiting for the first opportunity to asser{ their rights in court, and see what can bq done to enable them to carry on the fight they have begun. The railroad officials on the other hand are claiming at least a teme porary victory, and they hopea permanent one. They expect to fight the tariff through all the stages of litigation to the supremq court of the United States. They argue that before a final settlemont is reached a changa |, in either public sentiment or in the composi- tion of the board of commissioners will hava taken place that will be so favorable to thent that they can nceept tho situntion then with satisfa tion. The commissioncrs themselves are pliced 1 a peeuliar position. On theond hand the railvoud officiuls are insisting that they have been arbitrary and unreasonably severe even to the extent of practical confiscation of their props erty. On the otlier hand some shippers are complaining that the commissioncrs have raised rates 0o high and are ruining theig business instead of improving it. 1t is true that in_some classes of freight such as coal shipped for short distances, the tariff has boen ruised considerably. From less than cents under the old tarifY it is now raised to nearly S0 cents on short aistances, Of course, it1s much lower for long distanc the commissioners believing that in this w about the right average would be renche But mine operators who ship for short dise tances are complaining bitterly and demands ing a reduction. It seems to be understood that all of the railroads of the state, both those incorporated under lowa laws and those inc od in other states but doin, business here, will unite to resist the_scheds ule. There is a prospect of a long and bitter controversy in the courts before a_result s reached, The first hearing will be beforg Judge Brewer at Leavenworth next Fridays THE UNIVERSITY INVESTIGATION. The investigation at_the state university at lowa City still drags its slow longth along aud with 1o apparent benefit to the publia. A great many old women's stories have been cd and found as_foundationless as he personal enmity of the deposed Prof. Heiurichs to his lute associates, par- ticularly Dr. Peck, seem to be at the bottom of about all the charges that are now being investiyated. When two doctors full out it is very cusy for one to stirup o great deal of scandal about the other, even without any foundation for it. So sensational churges are being continually made and disproved in this investigation, at un expenseto the puvlic of about 200, 1t is to be hope that if the inves: tigation has no other effect it will at least result in retiring to unenviable obsourity tha men who have been rosponsible for all of the slander and scandal that have been rained about the university and its honored and faithful onicials. TILE SVALLPOX AT ST, LOUIS, The state board of health is in a very exs cited state of mind. The reason for its ins dignation is the neglect of the Missouri authorities to make public the fact thab X was raging in St. Louis during the jocratic_national convention in malig- ant and dangerous form. 1t secm that an agreement has for some time existed between bourds of health of the Gitferent states whenever cases of contugious diseases became known in one state they should be promptly reported to the other boards. Most of the states have kept the agreement, but the Missouri author.ties failed to_do their, duty, and 1t is known now that smallpox has been prevalent in St. Louis for several woeks, * A the inference is drawn that the authoris ties suppressed the news n order that people should not be frightencd into staying away from $t.
