Senator Mii.lku, of New York, thinks
the Democrats cannot talk the tax retluction
bill to death in the next session as they
iliil in tliu lust. The Senator doesn't know
the endurance of the Democratic jaw.
Ir in painful to hear some ol Senator
Davis1 party friends doubting the sincerity
ofliia letter of declination. This uncharitable
way of looking ut it gives the heir expectant
of Kanawha very little chance.
UomokConicu.no, lawyer, of 1)2 Uroadway,
is the way the New York Tn'tune
S|?t'aks of the once magnificent. And by the
way, he claims to have predicted the reHilt
which ho did so much to briug about.
Tub Democratic organs can't llud strains
loud and gay enough for them. They take
no thought of the morrow's dread reckoning;
but it is coming, and then?
What 1"U?1 uinl dlnnal Jllvrirf

Kmi.itoAD capital is beginning tosee that
there is business in "Wheeling worth looking
after. This is a good time for the city
to let all the world know that we shall welcome
every new comer without feuror
favor.
Tin:late Kopublican bostea of New York
live in the counties of Albany, Chemung,
Krie, Kings, Monroe, New York, lteusai'laer
and Ulster. These counties gave
Cleveland 143,135 out of his bewildering
majority of 19(1,000. Bosses do amount to
something after all.
Simon Camkuon is quoted as advising his
young hopeful to resign his seat in the
.Senate "and let the party go to" a very bad
I>!?ce. wiring toe election Uiobou made
u similarly profane threat to the manufacturer.*
of Pennsylvania, but he stands upon
the order of his going. As we read the returns
the Republican party has expressed a
willingness to try to get ulong without the
Cameron kind of politicians in command.
Tiik Cincinnati En<juircr'* blood-curdling
Htory about a plot to revolutionize the
llou&e by rushing Representative Kenna
forward to usurp the Speakers authority by
brute force, comes a little late. It ought to
have been sprung on some dull day in the
silly season. We are willing to ndmit ihut
the Democratic caucus is. not always wise,
hut it is not exclusively made up of idiots.
Am! there is Mr. Kenna?he does not
always do the right thing at the right time,
but he would hardly consent to prance
around as the ass of the caucus. In spite
of these and other weak places in the
fabric it is a very good story?to tell to the
marines.
( n.nkkai. Walk Kit projected the census
on a scale of magnificence with respect to
.scope ami details. He aimed at a census
which should cover thoroughly matters of
interest never before touched upon in a
United States census. The scheme, if it
had been carried to completion in reasonable
time, would have been none too vast;
am! possibly General Walker could have
carried it out successfully, but lie left the
service, and now there seems tobenhopele^H
tangle. It tuny still bo possible to
carry out the original plan, but hardly iu
time to be of great use. Conditious change
rapidly in this country; this year's statistics
push last year's aside; aud while It is
of interest to know the state of the country
five years back, the fresher the intelligence
the greater its value. Jiy this time
the work of the Census lUtreau ought to
have been completed and the last of its
publications before'the public. Nobody
uceinflio havii anv delimit* id en when it
w:li wind up. *
Haimioad advices from lJaltiiuorc promise
the long-delayed move of {ho Baltimore
A ',Ohio Railroad Company which if to
eompleto the Hemptieid extension anil
give Wheeling a shorter line to Baltimore
ami Washington. The same step in advance
will give us a competing line to
Pittsburgh, and place us directly on a
great trunk line. The details of the plan
are highly interesting, but the point of
most importance to Wheeling is that after
many years of disappointment and serious
inconvenience a hope seems about to be
fulfilled. All doubt will be laid at rest
when the lirnt through train over the
llemplield extension comes steaming in.
Till then we can ntlbrd to wish the now
enterprise well, without pinning our faith
to it. It is but fair, however, to Bay that
8?hc programme seemgfo have the stamp of
sincerity upon the face of it, and is quite
in accord with the lliiltlmopn it Ohio'*
I necessities. It must reach out, eip brace
more territory and improve jts through

Washington, November 20. ? .Some
pointed and interesting practical suggestions
in relation to ,the late election were
recently brought out in a discussion in the
ofiice of Gen. Green 11. Kaum, Commissioner
of Internal Revenue. There were a
number of gentlemen present, including
several newspaper correspondents. The
interchange of views was free and unrestrained,
it being understood that what
was said was not fo:r publication, a restriction
which has since been removed. .
General Itanm contended that the result
of the elections could not be attributed to
a revolution in political opinions; that the
Democratic party liad done nothing and
promised nothing which could have so
powerfully influenced the people. He insisted
that the principles of the Republican
party, and its legislation upon all questions
invftlvillff !?? mill
estsof the-country, will mill be indorsed
by a large majority of the electors, and
tlmt in transacting the public business, in
administering the finances, and in collecting
and disbursing the revenues, the Ku1
publican party had met the highest expectations
of the people. The sticces* of the
Democratic party was not on account of
any merit of its own, but was the result of
the discords and di visions of its opponents.
It was clear there was, within the Republican
party itself, an element, variously
called in different States, which had the
power, whenever it choose to exercise it,
of turning those .States over to the Democracy.
Inanswertoa question whether he did

Committee in levying "voluntary contributions
upon government employes had exercised
an injurious effect, Gen. Katun replied
that he believed it had. There was n
strong feeling among Republicans tlmt a
self-appointed Congressional Campaign
Committee was, at best, an exercise of delegated
powers?was, in fact, a return to the
lirat and worat cpouh 'in our political
history, that of Congressional aud legislative
caucus dictation, and that the management
of a Republican campaign ought to
be conllded to the committee selected by
the Republican party in its national convention.

It is stated at tbe Chinese Legation that
there is no foundation for the statement
that the Chinese Minister and suite will be
withdrawn from the United States on account
of recent legislation restricting
Chinese immigration.*
Secretary 'Chandler in conversation yesterday
morning said lie .had practically :
determined not to act upon the new naval
regulations until alter uieir revision by the
new board, which he expected soon to appoint.
Charges have been made, that the
regulations discriminate in favor of certain
olticers.
Secretary Chandler has received a dis- !
patch stating that U. S. steamer Nipsic, on
which it was honed to bring tho remains
of John Howard Tayne from Tunis, had 1
left Palermo, Italy, for Lisbon. The vessel,
therefore, cannot -convey tho reinuius. It
is not known wlmt action Mr. Corcoran, 1
who desires to bring tho remains to this
qity, will do.

Nkw Youk, November i!0.?Tho trial suit
of Wilkinson against llenry Ward Beecher
(or dumages for breach of contract for fail*
lug to complete the Life of Chi 1st, was
tesumed this morning. Mr. Ueecher culled
to the stand: He did not remember having
in 1870 received, read or signed the paper
aliown him, nor did ho recollect having
read a modilled copy of it. He did not be*
lieve any demand for the copy was niudo
Binco 1870. lie knew they wanted
tlio copy and they knew they
couldn't get it. Ho understood the copy
was to bo furnished them, but there was
no limitation of time.
Ho had had repeated conversations with
Ford & Co.. as to tho expediency of issuing
a book in 1S74. When Plymouth Church
was invaded and persecuted by various
councils (referring to tho Congregational
Council) tho gentlemen of tho firm were
entirely in accordance with me us to the
impossibility of putting out a second vol*
uiuo of the "Life of Christ." The counsel
for the plaintiff then declared his case
closed, and Mr. Sherman renewed his motion
to dismiss tbe Cast* iinnn th? wrAinids
alreaily published.
.JmJge-Barrett granted the motion to dismiss.
In moving for an extra allowance of
$1,500to tho defence, Mr. Shearman said
the real facta of tho case were that -when
the work was suspended the 11 rm had aoino
10,000 copies on hand, anil there was no
evidence to show these cost them one cent.
Instead of losing money the llrm had jnade
a clear gain of $1,700. Judge Barrett made
an order allowing Mr. lieecher $330 extra
allowance.

NEAT STRATEGY1.
Some time since a paragraph appeared in
tlio public prints" to the offect that the
Pittsburgh Southern railroad had been
purchased by the Baltimore it Ohio, but as
to just wliat was meant by this transaction
there appeared to he a limit of knowledge.
The Pennsylvania doubtless appreciated
something of its importance, and VanderUill.

the anxiety of the Pittsburgh Southern to
gain his consent to crossing his lines to the
coke regions, though hud he the slightest
suspicion that this crossing meant the
letting in to Pittsburgh of the B. & 0. by a
new line, it ia quite possible that he would
have vigorously resisted. So, too. the Pennsylvania,
us to the exigency that might
?ri?e relative to passing over its tracks,
while tlui property holder who obligingly
parted with fifteen miles right of way on
reasonable terms would very likely had
higher "bidders from rival lines had
it been suspected that the U. ifc.O,
was the moving spirit in all these interesting
details. The fact of the matter is, the
Baltimore & Ohio was the undisputed
owner of the Pittsburgh Southern liaiiroad
nearly live weeks prior to any outside
knowledge of the purchase, und all the
prelinihrnries to making the availability of
the new line certain were accomplished
before VanderbiU, the Pennsylvania or
any one else but the inside few knew anything
of the transfer of the property.

rENKTllATING THE KNKMY'h CAMP.
While thus penetrating so generally into
the Pennsylvania's territory west aud
northwest, the operations of the B. <k 0.
looking to securing a fair share of tho Pittsburgh
business south and southwest, are
upon a nolcss comprehensive and extended
basis. Over this territory, as tho other,
tho Pennsylvania I1113 ever held a practical
inonojyoly. Nothing has ever appeared
relative to the plans perfected by tho
, 11. it 0. management for tho extension of
its Columbus line from that point to New
vicnnn, on tue Marietta & Cincinnati, and
tho knowledge of it, only now to see the
light, i? auother evidence that tho & 0.
, waits until it is good and ready before
making its intention public. Tho new
link will bo built nt once, as the money
lias been raised, the survey decided upon,
and everything ready to commence work.
It will not bo a difllcult line to build, and
will bo live miles shorter from Columbus
, to Cincinnati than tho Pau-llandle rond.
But this is by no means all, for in connection
with the Pittsburgh Southern it will ho
the short lino from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati,
St. Louis and all points south and
southwest.
A GRAND I.1SU WEST.
TJje intimate relations existing between
the Ohio & Mississippi and tho Baltimoro
it Ohio insure satisfactory' co-operation between
Cincinnati and St, Louis, and as the
Marietta & Cincinnati will pass into tho
hands of tho Baltimore &. Ohio next
month, there will bo no diflleulty so far as
Cincinnati is concerned. It will make a
grand lino westward from Pittsburgh,
comparing in overv way with tho Pennsylvania,
linen. Pittsburgh and Wheeling as
well, must profit to u great extent by the
Baltimore iV Ohio's now lines, tho one us
to the transportation of manufactured
products, and the other as to material.

St. Louis, November 20.-?In on inter- :
view published, this afternoon by the I'ost- !
Dispatch Kthni A. Hitchcock, President of
the St. Louis 0/e & Steel Company inti- ,
mates that the Vulcan Steel Works of that J
company here will probably close down on ,
December 1st and remain dosed all next
year. i
Mr. Hitchcock gave tho following infor- '
mation respecting the steel rail interests of 1
the country. Jfe said the price of steel \
rails had fallen otr 25 per cent. It was
$(H) per ton, it is now $45. "When rails J
were worth $60, pig iron was sold from '
$25 50 to $2(1 per too. The iron men uow I
want $24. 1 have offered these men $20 >
per ton, but they will not take it. It is j
altogether idle to talk about keeping the (
Vulcan establishment at worJ: unless i
we get pig iron at $20 per ..ton. ,
N'ow the demand, as close as 1 can get at |
it, upon the next year, will be about one ,
million tons. Call it 50 per ceut of the |
steel mill capacity and that shows that it |
would be impossible for all the mills to t
work full time nmler the most favorable ,
circumstances. 15ut as far as consumption |
is concerned it is very difficult to figure. I (
do not believe the railroads know what
they will want until after their annual
balance sheet. At best there will be little
building. There will be no trunk 1
Hues built into Texas or Mexico.
We will have to depend
on tho reconstruction and repair ?
of the roads alreadv built. There will bo ,
ukjuu ucui ui tins uone, out not enough to
take more than 50 per cent of the present 1
capacity of the steel mills. I don't believe 1
Congress will make any material change c
in the tariff. The duty on meUils may be (
lowered, that is expected I believe, but t
the condition of iron cuts a very .
little figure due way or the fi
other. If by the 1st of December x
at which time our present contracts will ho j
worked out, we can't procure labor and u
material at rates which will enable us to t
meet a reduction in the price of steel rails t
we shall close our works. .If we do close rj
8,000 men will be thrown out of employ- r
ment and a pay roll of ?150,000 per month j
will be stopped. For our men's Fake we i
would gladly continue work, but we cannot c
run our mills itt a positive financial less. ;
Chicago, November 20.?A break in the
price of steel rails, caused chiefly by the
Bessemer Company, of Scranton, which
has quoted them atS-12 per ton, has brought
matters to a focus, anil the Joliet Iron and c
Steel Company is reported to have deter- a
mined to close down their works on or
before December J.
The ostensible reason given by the Joliet
managers is that a majority of Congress are <
hostile to the existing tariff on steel rails
and a seeming concurrence of public sentimentthatthecustom
duties must be reduc- ?
ed.ln the long struggle from 1873 to 1879 the ,
company kept running at a loss, mainly to
keep distress from overtaking their employes,
until the/ failed. Tin's time they
propose to take in sail early enough to ob*
viate the loss of anything beyond interest
in capital. The result will be the enforced
idleness of several thousand employes at
the bci?innimr of wintpp. ' '
Pittbhvuuu, November 20.?A gentle- .
man of tbia city, prominently con- 1
nected with the iron and steel interests, t
being asked about the reduction on steel ii
rails, said: "It is true that the price of ;j
steel rails bus gone c}own to S-4S?not $4*2, /
us you say. This price is not that naked ;
by one mill, but the Jk'ures for-every mill *
cast of Pittsburgh. The Cambria people ,,
claim to ho standing for better figures, but c
that is simply because they have euough on j
hand for many months, and can run. The
Kdyar Thompson peoplo, at least, are in
good condition, and probably some of the
others. The fact is, however, that even i\t j
the smallest eatiinato put upon tho hesse- v
taer men they eaa rwifce their steel rails ^
at $ 12, and wake money on them. ^
' 'J am inclined to think in this respect it j
is much <lillereut in the far West The
mills thero have not the advantage respect* <\
