The lirst i:un wis ntea oy Mr. lilaine when lie wrote" to" 'On'ttrHftii:Qiafejj-,-?ofi;-the. republican national committee, announcing that his name would not be presented to the republican nomination. The un was loaded with a dynamite shell, which, ex pioueii vtneu me letter was pub lished, and although it was a week ago, the reverberation may still be heurU and the echoes will be heard for months to come from a'd sec tionj. The first question asked was, what will be the result of -the letter? The answer depended en tireiy on whom you ask. It opposed to Blaine it would be emphatically insisted that the letter had com pletely removed Mr. Blaine from the field, but if you asked a Blaine man, he would promptly reply that the letter had insured the nomina tion of Blaine by acclamation, that his friends did not propose to allow him to have any say whatever in the matter. They were going right ahead to nominate)' and elect him president, as a small cempensation for his accidental defeat in 1884. So there you are. These two classes represent the opinions of all republicans. You can take your i choice. But it is only fair to say that the proportion ot opponents to Blaine compared with his sup porters is oniy about one to ten. One direct result of the Blaine letter is to show how much really iond presidential material the re publican party contains. There ue Allison, Shermau. Sheriduu, Uullom, Iugalis.

Tne house has instructed the committee on manufactures to report n Mr. Millikin's resolutions directing the secretary of the treasury to investigate the sugar trust in New York, on Frday next A lively tight is expected over this matter. Having passed the Senate, the Blair educational bill is now before the house. wher its fate is envel oped in much doubt. Saturday was given up by the senate committee on the District ot Columbia to a hearing ou the Piatt bill prohibiting the sale of intoxi cating liquors in this district. There was quite a large crowd present, mostly ladies, and the hearing ot the same old arguments on both sides ot the question had grown somewhat monotonous when the slender figure of Dr Mary Walker arose from a back seat, With a silk hat in baud she made her way through the crowd to the front ot the tab'e around which the com mittee sat, and asked for five minutes time. She started out by saying she was opposed to the bill. This created great surprise among the lady prohibitionists present, as many of them remembered that many years ago the doctor had asked congress to pass a law almost identical with this bill. She said her reason for opposing the bill was that such a law could not be enforced. She said congress might as well attempt to pass a bill for bidding women wearing hoops, bustles, corsets and trains, or to compel them to dress like Dr. Mary Walker. She concluded her remarfts by saying that tobacco was more injurious to the human race than alcohol. The ladies, who do not iiiluiate with Dr. M . y of lute did Ui't leiish lire episode. MM II LIKE 11 V I X i. '. S. Stcniuer t'liartereti f o Carry .llexicau Troops to Shu Benito. Guaymas, (Mex.) Feb. 20. Great excitement prevails here over the news that the Mexican Government has chartered the Alejandro for two trips to take troops from Mazatlan to fcan Benito, where Guatemalan insurgents are invading Mexican soil. The steamship Topeka is not expected to return on her usual Mexican coastwise trade, and this region has been left without coast steam ers for two months. For this reason prices of sugar, soap, lard and other national products which comes by steamers from Manzanillo have already raised. The supply must come, therefore, from the States. The sloops-of-war Demccrata, Mexico and Juarez, will also take troops from Acapulco and other ports. Tim im pret-sion here is that the Guatemalans will not be easily checked - For a good pair of spectacles go -OLOKA0 WOOL VROWCKS.

After a disposal of routine bus iness, the convention adopted a res olut'on, which was addressed to Cotorado's Senators and Represen tive3 at Washington and the Senate and House committees, asking then to use every uprij ht means to pre vent a further reduction of the wool tariff, and to restore the tariff rate on wool to the rate that existed prior to the reduction of March 3, 1883. T2IE i'KEIUEXTIAL PARTY. A Snfe Arrival. at Waslilncton After uu iEaJoyatole ltt-iiiLb.. . Washington, Feb. 26. A spec ial train, bearing President and Mrs. Cleveland, Secretary and Mrs. Wh'tney and Colonel and Mrs. 1. ..mo -it from their southern tour, reached Sixth Street station at 3 :30 this morning. The party had not retired, and were at once driven to their respective homes. They were all well, but fatigued by thfir five-days' journey. The baggage car was loaded down with floral offerings. The journey was a perfect success and evidently af forded as much pleasure to the people of the towns visited as to the visitors. MA OK HIS W.' COFFIS. A Millionaire's Preparation for Ueatb There is a millionaire in Connecti cut, who has now passed his three score and teu, who has made his own coffin and who has arranged all the details of his luueral. his name is Richardson and is said to be the rich est man in Connecticut, lie is a good business man aud has increased a fortune which his father left him. He is a crank on the subject of elm timber for coffins, and it is now forty years since he sent to England for elm sapling. While it was grow ing he told hia triends that he m nuded to be finally buried within it d that he hoped to have enough wood from it to furnish cothus for all his friends. A few ye-rs ago the tree, hen over thirty years old, was cut down and enough material got o t of it to make three cottins. lie packed one of these away in his gai ret for himself, burning his name in to the top and sidrs with iron. He said that an engraved plate would be to expensive, and his directions for his lujif rai provide? that th simplest ceremony should be used. Enough of the wood for another coffin he sent to Dr. Dix, he rector of Trin ity Church New York, aud the other planks he presented his only brother. Dr. Dix i said to have had a coffin made from the wood, but the hrother, though he has sent his thanks for the present, has not cared do to. Au Early s.i.i Y.iiMo Anecdote. The second toll-gate was about where Eighth Street is, ' and there was a marsh here, over which a lontr bidge was built. There wasa ijuic; sand at the margin of this marsh, one day wheu out driving with my father; my mother stopped to pi tc some flowers here. W nile doing so, she fouud her elf sinking in the quieksan-1. She called to my father and he rushing to her assistance found himelf unable to get her out without the help of some passer-by who labored for a while" to extricate them both from their periUus posi tion. When years afterwards this marsh was filled, it seemed to take immense amount of sand to fill nn the place For a long time no pere tib'eefiec;. was produced by this rming-m pro cess, but at last the work was com pleted and the l.iars'.i . as a t i ig of the past.

LARUE M.tlBKK OF LIVES LOST The Mills Tariff Bill-Change in the Home stead Laws Eecommended Under an Avalanche. The Herald's Special Dispatches.! South Vai.le.io, Feb.- 27. The steamer Julia was blown up this morning and burned to the water's edge. The vessel was plying be tween Vallejo J unction and South Vallejo. There were between fifty and sixty persons on board, at the Iiri6H:itl&)Hi): were- killed and five bodies have beerr recovered so far, they are those of Michael Bronnelly, Albert Madi son, Oliff Nelson, and two burned beyond recognition. The body of John Olives was recovered alive but died from injuries. It is be lieved that ten bodies still remain on the steamer. Captain Gedger and most of the crew escaped with . slight injuries. Among the miss ing are : Edward and James Rule, John Campton. Timothv Hurley, Jas. Williams, William "Connelly, John Hodgkins, Mack Carldolan, William Lamar, G. C. McDonaU and a colored porter named Clar!.. Later. It is believed that there were sixty-seven people on board, of whom only seventeen have been accounted for, and fears are now entertained that the calamity is much more seiious than at firsi thought, indicating that forty per sons were killed. The disaster was due to the explosion of one oc the petroleum yats and within a few minutes after the explosion the steamer sank in mud and water, which now covers her upper deck and all that can be seen of her is her flagstaff. The wharf caught fire and is still burning. The telegraph office was also de stroyed. The full scope of the dis aster cannot be known for several davs. THE TARIFF RILL. More BilU I pon the Same Subject Soon to Follow. Washington', Feb. 27. The Mills tariff bill has been complet ed practically and will be laid be fore the full committee on ways and means to-morrow. It is ex pected that the bill will be report ed to the house after the meeting to-morrow morning and oidered printed and recommitted to the committee. A final report to the house will likely be made within a week or ten days. . It is expected that the Randall and republican bills will appear shortly after. PIBtll LAXDS. The Committee Agree I pon a Report. ' Washington, Feb. 27. The sen ate committee on public lands has substantially though not formally agreed upon the public land bill, to repeal timber culture, preemption laws, amend homestead laws, etc. It is similar in memorial features to the senate bill of last session. The meeting of the committee will be held next Saturday, at which it is expected t.at a formal action, will be taken. ITALIAN VILLAGE BIRIEU. The Deadly Avalanche tints In Its Work. London, Eng., Feb. 27. The village of Vallorla in the north of Italy has been half buried by ava lanches. Many houses'- were wrecked and their occupants buried in the ruins. Troops have arrived from Bergamo to help in disinter ring the buried. Twenty-three corpses have been recovered and several persons extricated alive although more or less injured. THE PANAMA CAN AX. French Estimates or the Expenses of the. Cirrat Dlteh. New York, Feb. 26. The Post reprints an article from the Econo miste Francaise concern ing the Lessep's Panama Canal estimates, on the authority of Paul Lerov Beaulleu. He says the lowes't figure that would pay interest charges and expenses and allow per cent rn tne stock would be 21o,000,000 francs per year; that in 1886 that Suez Canal, ntwentpon years after it was opened, had total receipts of less than 60,000,000 francs, and, therefore it is ridicu lous to claim that the Panama' Canal could be reasonable expect ed to pay, or possible could pav 200,000,0000 francs. He estimates that the Pacific coast could furnish tonnage approximately of 2,500,000 and that the commerce of Asia and China would add 500,000 tons. He estimates the probable the lock canal between 30;000,000 and 35,000,000 francs. He thinks it'possible. howevpr. hv hsmin ductions m expenses that the lock 1 . i i canai couia ne completed for i,iuu,wu,us.M irancs and proposes as part of the scheme that America, England, Germany and France shall provide a collective guaranty of 3 per cent interest for the money yet to be borrowed.
