Cleveland IN 1HE intense excitement that now provails around the national capital the fact has almost been overlooked that there is a vacancy to be filled on the United States supreme bench. GORMAN and Gibson, Hiscock and Hill, Perkins and Peffer, Coke and Chilton are the alliterative pairsin the United States senate from Maryland, New York, Kansas and Texas respec- tively. ONE of the adjuncts of reciprocity with the central and South American re- publics is to be the pan-American silver dollar. Its size is not vet determined, buu it will probably have to be as large s the American pancake.

SINCE Roger Q. Mills was defeated for speaker, Colonel Jones of the St. Louis Republic has been rampantly and uproariously mud. He has seen nothing to admire anywhere and it is conse- quently no surprise to find him snorting over the president’s message just as if it were a personal affront to himself. MILWAUKEE only spent $5,000 in her offort to get the democratic national convention, Milwaukee is certainly to be congratulated. She got off very cheap in viaw of the attractions at Washington and the heavy draught on Milwaukee'’s favorite beverage by the thirsty members of the national com- mittee, I't WOULD be something like retribu- tive justice if the negroes should carry Louisiane in the coming election. There is a possibility of such a result, too, with the lottery question dividing both re- publicans and democrats. If the negro throw their strength against the lottery they will come very near annulling the new constitution formed and enacted ospecially for their disenfranchisement, Hian license has struck Mississippi and threatens to vacate two-thirds of the saloons in that state. The new law just enacted fixes the license for small towns in the country districts at $700 and the minimum in towns of over 2,000 inhabitants is $1,500. The law is very stringent in all its details, but the most novel attuchment to the Mississippi high license law is a provision that no #aloonkeepar shall be pe:mitted to sit on a jury,and being a liquor dealer is justifiable cause for challenge. — THE naxt annual meeting of the American Beet Sugar Producers asso- oiation will be held in Omaha, January 25, 1893, This organization was formed in San Franeisco on Mondav last and is composed of the representatives of all the beet sugar manufacturing companies in the United States. When the con- vention meets in Omaha next year there should be a large increase of member- ship caused by the establishment of numerous new factories. In this con- nection it may be well once more to re- wind the indiffevent people hereabouts . that Omaba is the geographical center of what will be the greatest sugar beet growing region in the world within twenty-five years. Whether she shall also be the comwercial center of the beet sugar industry depends upon the anterprise of her people. THE QUESTION OF ARBITRATION. Can the United States government, with a due regard for its honor and dig- nity, ngree to submit to arbitration any one of its demands on Chili? These de- mands are for the withdrawal of the offensive letter foreign affairs, Senor.Matt an apology for the outrage on American seamen wearing the uniform of the navy, and indemnity. Two things are primarily to ba considered. One i8 that our gov- ernment is committed to the principle of arbitration between the nations of this hemisphere. It was the United States that proposed in the pan-Awmeri- can conference to estabiish this prinei- ple between the countries there repre- sented. This wouid seom to impose a moral obligation upon this country to accept arbitration in any case that would novinvolve a compromise of na- tional honor and dignity. The other thing is that Chili declined, through its representatives in the pan-American conference, to accept arbitration as un- conditional and obligatory, the Chilian delegates formally declaring that they were *‘unwilling to entertain the illu- fon that any conflict which may directly affect the dignity and honor of a nation shall ever be submitted to tbe deeision of u third party. This, while not excluding Chili from the privilege of proposing arbitration, would seem to deprive her of all claim to a favorable consideration on the part of the United States of such a proposal Of course, the question of the with- drawal of the Matta letter and the de- mand for an apology cannot be sub- mittod to arbiteation. No third party could be permitted to decide whether or not this government was insulted by the communication of the Chilian ex-min- ister of foreign affairs and whether or not this government is entitled to an apology for the outrage upon its citi- zens. These are matters which it is the absolute privilege of the injured govern- ment to determine for itself. Is the matter of the attack on the sailors of the Bultimore at Valparaiso a proper sub- ject for arbitration? They wore the uni- form of the United States navy, and in the opinion of the peesident they were assaulted, not for anything they had done, but “*for what the United States government had done, or was charged with having done, by its civil oflicers and navel commanders,” In was there- fove in effect an attack on the govern- ment. Is it not obvious, from this point of view, that the dignity and honor of the government are involved in this af- fair, and that consequently, according to the Chilian view of two years ago, it is not a matter to be submitted to the docision of a third party. The United States could perhaps afford to be mag- nanimous, for the sake of a wholesome example, and allow it to take that course, but manifestly Chili bas no right or claim to expect such consider- ation. There is really butone question in connection with this complication for which arbitration may proveriy be urged, and that is the question of in- demnity., A third party may be neces- sary to a fair and just determination of the pecuniary damage, but the govern- ment of the United States could not without self-humiliation t would lower it in the respect of the world sub- mit to arbitration a question in which injury toits dignity or honor is involved. ENGLISH INFLUENCE RESPONSIBLE If not clearly appavent now it will doubtless be ascertained later oh that English influenco is very largely- re- sponsible for the pevverse course of the Chilian government regarding the de- mands of the United States, That in- fluence is very strong in the southern republic. English capital is very largely interested in the nitrate beds which Chili became possesed of through her war with Peru, and from which the government derives a considerable part of its revenues. Inother departments of Chilian commerte, also, English capi- tal has been extensiveiy invested, and indeed this foreign capital probably plays the largest part in the financial and business affairs of the republic. The representatives of English bankers, manufacturers and morchnnts are ther fore enabled to exerta great influence, not only with those in trade, through whom they can reach the people, but as well with members of the government. No other alien elemant in Chili is as in- fluentiai as the English. There is strong reason to believe that this element has held out the promise to the Chilians that in the event of a war with the Unitcd States Chili could de- pend upon the assistance of England. The misstatements of the case of the United States by the Valparaiso corre- spondent of the London Zimes, the misrepresentations regarding the con- duct of tho American minister from the same source, and the persistent effort to put the Chilian gov- erument in the most favorable light be- fore the publicof England furnished conciusive evidence of how the sympa- thy of the English element in Chili stood. Its motive was wholly mervcenary. It did not desive war. It believed that the United States government would not go to war to enforce its demands, and that at the last moment would accept an arbitration of thedifficulty. What this elewent wanted was to oreate such a fecling of popular hostility toward the United States that no Chilian government would venture to consider any proposal for closer commeor- cial relations between the two govera- ments, and thus English capital could continue to enjoy, undisturbed by Amer- ican competition, the profitable advan- tages it has secured in Chili. Haviog worked up this sentiment of hostility, this very English influence may now be active to secure a settlement by arbitra- tion, of course with England, as a *‘neu- tral nation,” in view as arbitrator. Itis quite possible, however, thatthere may be a reaction in the public mind of Chili when it shall have taken a calm and sober view of the present circum- stances, If an adjustment shou'd be reached without war time will cool the passions and allay the irritation caused by the disturbance of friendly relations, and when this takes place the Chiliun peonle may not only learn to respect the United States more than ever bhefore, but may see the value and importance of establishing closer relations with this | country. of the ex-minister of | | commuting the comparatively fnsignifi- RECENT correspondence batweon the State and Treasury departments hns‘ brought out the fact that a large nura- | ber of assisted immigrants have been coming to the United States from Great Britain. It appears that the British government has been in the habit of cant pensions paid to veterans of the British army, providing they would agree to emigrate and sign n contract not to again apply for relief in the Brit- ish empire. These men have been in the habit of coming to the United States, and many of them have become a public charge. The acting secrotary of the treasy in a letter to the secretary of stalo, says that it appears to be the es- tablished practice of the British War office, pacticularly in case of invalids and disabled pensioners, to commuto their pensions and them a lump sum, on the condition that they shall thereaftor reside in some other country, usually the United States, and that the lump sum is not p: in Great Britain, but is forwarded to the British consul at New York or other port of arrival, to be puid to the party on landing, and when it is presumably certaiu that he will no longer bo o burden upon the revenues of Great Britain, Two cases of this kind recently came to the knowledge of the immicration officiale, and it is the in- tention of the Treasury department to deal summarily with all such immi- grants hereafter, and treat them as ns- sisted immigrants within the provisions of our statutes. SENATOR WASHBURN of Minnesota struck a hornets’ nest when he intro- duced the anti-option bill. There is a ceneral uprising all along the line from Minneapolis to Duluth, anl remon- strances are pouring in upon the senator from all quarters. One of the most vigorous prote comes from a leading grain dealer in Minneapolis, who makes the following assertion: Without an open market in which grain can be sold freely and in unrestricted quantitios it is my belief that the handling of grain from the producer would be so im puaired and interfered with and the risk so great that the parties dealing directly with the producer in self-protection would be com- pelied to make so wide a margin of differenco between the present prices at terminal mar- kets aud the price paid in the country that the producer would suffer, as against the preseut system of doing business, to an ex- tent of not less than 5 cents per bushel on the crop of wheat grown. I say this from our own experience in the business and from our kvowledge of what we personally would be compelled to do if we could not daily sell for some future time the grain purchased in tho country, which we are absolutely unable to move forward from the lack of transpor:ation facilities this season. Lo illustrate: We buy today in the country 70,000 bushels of wheat; we only get cars to move 20,000 bushels, leav- ing 50,000 bushels romaining on our hands unsold and uuprotected, subject to a decline in values, or we must sell 1t for such a future time as will enable us to get it into markot for delivery. Now, it would be au Injury and legitimato business would suffer iu case of an abolition of an open market for the salo of grain for future delivery to an extent so great that the injury that may possibly arise from unlimited speculation would be insig- nificant incomparison. SE or CHANDLER'S bill .requiring the owners of steamships to provide on- larged space for emigrants and sur- round them with greater comforts than are now accorded to steerage passengers will commend itself to all who are famil- 1ar with the horrors of steerage pnssage. Some of the transatlantic steamship lines provide commodious quarters for steerage passengers, but the majority of them simply cndeavor to stow a 1,000 to 2,000 human beings in space that scarcely affords breathing room for half that number. One of the most commendable provisions of tho senator’s bill is the vequiremoot thut every steamship or vesse! that carries passen- gers shall have adequate provisions fov affording light and air to the passen- gev decks and to each of fthe cabins, compartments and spaces oceupied by such pussengers, and with adequato meuns, appliunces, machinery and power for ventilating the said cabins and compartments with their berths, 1y curious feature of congros- sio comment upon the president’s Chilinn message is the fact that in nearly every case the southern demo- ceats approve its sentiment and com- mend statesmanship, while Jerry Simpson and a number of northern demoerats like William A, Springer treat it indecorously and show their partisan animus in discussing its feut- ures.

Charge That an Embezzler Supposed to e Dead Still Lives, New Brusswick, N, J., Jan. 26.--A meet- mgof stockhbolders of the Jamesburg buuk, whose cashier, T.

A local physician had been called in when Hill was stricken with the grip, and 6o one was admitted to the sick chamber. When Hill's doath was announced, but little time elapsed before the body was i0id in the grave. Tha rumor that Hill is still alive has been intensified by the report that he has been within _the past few days on Fourteenth streot, New York, in company with a woman whose name has been closely connected with his defaication. As Hill's life was insured for £20,000 a feww days before he was said to have died, the company's agent. in this city was proparing 1o pay the claim. Now he has announced that this will not be done until satisfactory proof of death is given The result of the allegations is that it has been decided to open the grave and ascertain whether it contain’s Hill's bodv or a dummy. It is expected that this wiil be done today. The local lodee of the Royal Arcanum is doubly interested in this, as they allege that Hill committed sulcide. If the cofin reaily holds Hill's bodv, they may demand an in- vestigation to be made to ascortain if he killed himself. Bank Examiner Stone concluded bhis in- vestigation into Hill's acts yesterday.

A San I'rancisco dispatch received hero in the supreme court of this city to obtain her share of an estateleft by the late William J. Florence, who died last November. The estate is reputed to be worth between #250,000 and £300,000, all of which he left to his wife. The late Mrs. Hall reared Miss Hall with her owan three girls and one boy. She told Miss Florenco several years ago that she was not her mother, but that her father was W. J. Florence, the uctor. Miss Hall was born in this city twenty-three years ago. W. J. Florence was here about that time. Mrs. Hall tola hor foster cnild that she would uot say then who her muther was, but as- sured her that Florence was her father, and even went so far as to show checks whicn sho claumed the actor had sent her for the sup- port of Florence. Mrs. Hall, during the lat- ter years of her lifo, kept a lodeing biouse on Post street, between Kearney and Grant her daughter and went to school. She as- sisted Mrs. Hall in conducting the lodsing house and left San Fraucisco about threo years ago and opened a loaging house in Butte, Mont. She subsequently went to Chi cago, where she has resided ever sinco. Owing to the fact that sne has several rola- tives in this city whom she does not wish to interfere in the prosecution of her suit, her commg hero was kept secret.
