The Uulted Stat.s AJviod toWithdiaw From All MegOtlstloDI, WAKinsiiTiis, Mareli Iii If President Harrison has a friend in a newspaper in this country it is the Washington 1VM which bus yet never undertaken the rather ilillicult task of denying the ex istence ul the correspondence that has Missed between the United Sta'es and Kussia. The Post this tnorninr says editorially: "The Post has alieady urged '.he right ol Kussia to he considered in this matter in a much more explicit manner. The propriety of our entering into sm h alli ances, commercial or otherwise, as muy strengthen the nation and promote its welfare, and the propriety of a compact bet ween Kussia and the United States, with reference to their mutual interests and N.issession in Behring sea, is too obvious to call for argument. We have insisted from tlie fust that it was a mis take to consider the idea of arbitrating with England as to a right which we ac quired from Kussia, and in which Eng land had no sort of standing. It was an exhibition of characteristic British im pudence to make such a proposition and of characteristic American thoughtless ness to entertain it for a fraction of a second. In doing so we consented to the impeachment of our own title, to a slur upon the integrity of the transac tion to which this title was conveyed to us, and to the admission of England's right to enter a claim in the premises. It was a miserable blunder from begin ning to end. It is not too late, how evor to withdraw from this sinister en tanglement. Thanks to Lorn Salisbury's latest performance in the field of his peculiar diplomacy, and to the interlude of plain, straightforward American assertion, with which Mr. Har rison has favored ua, there seems to be a jierfectly legitimate opportunity for us. No one can complain if we take advan tage of this opportunity to retire from the whole wretched complication and stand once more upon our rights and our recovered manhood . " Reid Returning Home. Tahis, March 25. Hon. Whitelaw Reid and Mrs. Reid started this evening for Havre, many prominent people gathering tit the station to hid them farewell. As the train drew out the crowd burst into a storm of cheers. Auti-Silver Democrats Ee'oioe, RociiKSTKK, Js. Y., March 25. There was great rejoicing among Cleve land democrats hore today upon the an nouncement of the defeat of the Bland bill and they showed their joy by tiring a Btilute of 100 guns.

Hilt Acquit Chicago, March 2(5 Alderman Bowles and MieliaeWin were indicated bxlav by the grand jury, making nine city fathers in all who must acijuit them selves before the jmlgu and jury or don strid clothes. The seeitk charge against Bowles is that he attempted to mulct real eUte owners to the extent of $10,000 for pulling through a street-car ordinance on Milwaukee avenue; that of Michaelson that he tried to bleed coal merchant who wanted permission of the city council to lay a switching track. Death af Walt Whitman. Philadklahia, March 2d. Walt Whit man died this evening. He passed away calmly and peace fully, like a child asleep. He had been weaker thin usual for some day past; had a sinking spell last night, but re covered somewhat. Again at 4 :30 this afternoon he began to sink. Dr. Alex. McAllister reached the dying man's bed side shortly afterward. The doctor found the poet in a dying condition. He asked the patient if he suffered pain, and he whispered the answer, "no." Three minutes before death, he said lo bis at tendant, "Weary, shift." They were the last word uttered by Mr. Vhitman. His breath caine fainter and fainter and at exactly at 0:43 p. m. be passed away. The Termi ef Compromise, Winsipku, March 25.

The finding of the com- J tween the United States and Great mittee which is a compromise, has been ! Britan by the discussions in the execu- accepted by both the company and the men. M'Kinlcy Defeated for Chairman. Coi-CMiics., March 26. The defeat of Governor M'Kinley in the election for tern pot ary chairman of the state conven tion last night was the most audacious and vindictive act of the long-continued Foraker Sherman light. The foraker men evidently deliberately planned to humiliate the governor for the part he took in the senatorial fight, and, it is said, pledged themselves to support him in ordei to induce him to be a candidate for the chairmanship. Bund by Their Principles. Dks Moinks, la., March 28. This evening the republican members of the legislature listened to speeches and reso lutions from anti-prohibition republicans from different cities, and alter a secret caucus they appointed a conunittee to reply. This reply is to be in line with the action already taken in the house, saying they cannot go back on the pledge given by tlie party last year to allow prohibition to remain a law of the state. A Full-Judged Judge. Portland, March 28. This, citv is to have a full-fledged judge of the United States circuit court next Wednesday : morning at 10 o'clock, as Hon. William ' B. Gilbert, who was recently appointed, (ins received his commission, and on that date and hour will take the oath of office, and enter at once upon the re sponsible judicial duties of the position. Proposition Acoepted, Astoria, Maich 2fl. The Pacific Can ning Co. of San Francisco have accepted the proposition of the Astoria chamber of commerce to pay taxes for five years on the plant and capital for the furnish ing of all cans used on the Columbia river. The company will immediately put up a building, and it is expected to have the plant working by June. Reciprocity Declined. LoNnoN, March 25.

Democrats Develop I'liexpt cled WeakneNH In 'I heir liankH. AS ASALYSWOP THK HOUSE VOIE. Seveiity-uliie Democrats and Six Re publican oppose the Iiliuid Kill General New. SrAniNiiTON, I). C. March 2o The silver advocated are sadly demoralized hv the weakness of their caune betrayed by last evening' proceedings of the house. They had all along been confi dent of a majority of thirty or forty. Bland will at one appeal to the com mittee on rule to set apart a day and hour for further consideration of the silver bill, thus cutting off all intervening motion and' forcing a vote. The anti-silver ople will also appeal to the committee on rule for permission to offer motions, first, to substitute an in ternational congress ; second to recom mit; third, to postpone till Decerubir nert; fourth, that a vote oe taken first on the inteinaiional monetary conres. Opponmenlsof the bill claim that tbU would be simply protecting the rights of the minority In view of the extreme closeness of the vote, as disclosed lat night, an analysis of tlie tie vote on the tet motion of Burrows lo lay the Bland hill on the table is interesting. Of the 148 votes in favor of the motion, eighty-two were cast by democrats, and sixty-six by re publicans. The negative vole shows eleven republican and tho other 137 were either democrat or alliance men The unexpectedly large showing ot democratic votea against the Bilver bill caur.e from the following state: New York Ill Illinois 3 Pennsylvania in ; I oimectlcut. 6 Wisi-onsin . Michigan 3 New Hampshire. . . 2 Rhode Island 2 Umisiana ..... ... 2 Minnesota 2 Massachusetts.. Iowa New Jersey Onio Maryland The states casting a single vote were South Carolina (Brawley,) Delaware (Causey), West , Virginia (Wilson), Missouri (Kobb) and California (Geary). Of the eleven republican vote Vincent A.Taylor, of Ohio, was the only one east ot the Mississippi river. Kanfas contributed two in Broderick and rims ton, South Dakota two more in Tickly and Jolly, while the other six vote came from many different states Col- orado (Townsend), Wyoming (Clirk), Nevada (Bartine) California (Bowers), j Idaho (Sweet) and Oregon (Heimann). Washington, Man h 20. The uiiuda ! of a majority of senators have lieen con- siderahly cleared of misapprehension as i live sessions the past week. It would have been well, according to one of the most broad-minded senators, il the pub- lie had been truthfully informed upon those points, for popular ignorance pre vails in England as well as the United states. it is learned now that as far back as last June the president suggested that the question of liability of each govern ment for damages inflicted upon citizen or property be left to the decision of the arbitrators. The British government declined to commit itself to the doctrine that it is responsible for the acts of its subjects which in the language of Salis bury, " involves the propositions that her majesty's governorment is liable to make good the losses resulting from the wrong action of persons sailing outside their jnrisdicton under the British flag." The president finally consented to a modification which included in the treaty permitting the two governments to submit to arbitration facts bearing upon claims for damages and leaving to it the determining of the juestion of liability. The question in this condition when the treaty was signed, and not since, has been touched upon in the cor respondence. Salisbury's ostensible reason for the non-renewal of the modus vivendi is that the representations of the commissioners sent to Alaska are that there is no necessity for a re newal. There is believed by a number oi senators to be a disposition by Salis bury to use his present position to gain concessions from the United States upon qther points of the controversy, such as unsettled claims for damage, to favorably impress Canada with an ap parent disposition to heed her demand," and avail himself of the present oppor tunity to retaliate upon this government for illegal infraction of the spirit of last year's modus in permitting the North American Commercial company to kill more than seventy-five hundred seals. It is believed that these reasons will so far influence Salisbury as to prevent a renewal of the modus on the same terms as last year, But not to determine him in an effort of force to protect seal ers for actions he has declined to assume the responsibility of.
