A FOOLISH RUMOR.
Some Idiot hu Said that Conkling
Come out for Sherman.
had
Washington, May 2. The report that
Roscoe Conkling had declared in favor
of John Sherman for the presidency in
1888. is ridiculed bv those who are inti
mate with the former. Gorham, of Cal
ifornia, said : "There's nothing in it. It
is not Mr. Conkling's habit to say in ad
vance what he proposes doing. Conkling
is out of politics. He does not purpose
to be taken up like a piece of crockery
from the political table and set aside,
only to be replaced again when another
piece is needed. He is just as much a
republican as ever, but I don't think he
would lift his linger to help the party
back into power again, no matter who
its candidate in 1888 mav lie."

preclude any other supposition. I do not

more personal administration than Cleve
land's never existed in this country."

Administration.

state democratic convention assembled
here to-day, and soon after it was called

would pledge the Kentucky democracy to
policies to winch it is known to be antag
onixtic, such as silver coinage, civil serv
ice reform, etc. Afterward he withdrew
his motion to table the resolution, and it
was referred to a committee: but the
chairman afterward decided McKenzie's
motion out of order.
SERIOUS COMPLAINT.
Another Reason why the Interstate Com
merce Bill is a Fraud.
Washington, May 4. The state de
partment has received a letter which
has been transmitted to the interstate
commerce commission from the United
States commercial agent at London, Ont.
The letter declares that since the law
went into effect imports from the united
States have greatly fallen olf, and Eng
land is securing the trade thus lost, ow
ing to the inability of American shippers
to know what through rates are. The
Canadian roads cannot give rates over
their own and connecting American
lines, so shipjiers aro unwilling to let
goods go when it is not known what the
other end cost will be. The letter says
it will not soon be remedied. It will take
years to regain the lost prestige which
we have enjoyed.
