Delegates Arriving;, in Cleve land on Every Train! CITY PROFUSELY DECORATED v Silver Meetings iu Kansas-President Declines Honor-Oregon Improvement Election. Cleveland, June 18. Every Incoming trahi today brought Bcoroi of delegaften and visitors to alftend the National Re puWlcan Leafrue Convention which begina tomorrow morning. The business portion of the city to profusely decorated with Hags and bunting.. Mualo Hall, where the convention wdU bo held, bas been most artistically decorated. The lmmenae ar cade building in wfotch the banquet wJl take place Thursday evening bas been transformed into a.,veriitable bower of beauty. The decoraltlons have cost many thousands of dollars and it is stalled that they are the finest ever produced at any league convention. The two principal t'oplcs. under discus sion around the hotel corridors were league politics and tlie silver question. Nearly all of the Eastern delegates who have thus far .arrived seem to favof General McAlpin for the presidency of the league. General McAlpin, of New York, seemlo ttt Wave the stronger sup port 'today and his fnlendd claim that he has a "cinch" on the place. Other can. dlJaites for the position are Hon. H. C. Evans, of Tennessee; Hon. S. B. Elklns, of West Virginia, and CW1. Isaac Trum bo, of Idaho. Among the visiting: statesmen who at tracted the most attention, during the day were Governor Brown, of Rhode Island, Governor Netoon aind ex-Governor Mer rlam, of MLnnesata; ex-Governor Moody, of Oragonr and the officers of the State leagues, but the influx of delegates to night is so large that the favorites are less conspicuous. Senators Carter and Dubois, however, are more eagerly sought after, as they are recognized as the leaa crs of the silver movement, and all Western delegates want to meet them. Silver enthusiasts are generally dlsap. pointed tonight over the attitude of the Mountaineers, and the collared brelthren of the South. DeCegaites say that tn delegates from the southern . states are d vlding on the silver question, end, that they want nothing done at this conven tion on that quttttion, and that if tha Issue is farced they will vote with the Eastern and ether delegates against fre silver, so as to have an issue a.;j.ilnst th Democrats that wtil br;ak the old line of race prejudice. The Southern dele gajtea are far a pol.cy of expediency, and Bjy thait tlhe old Whig element of the South is for sound money as welt as for protection, and that the So.ld Soulh cm be broken by the Republicans declaring In favor of both principles. Tlio Amer.can Protective Tariff League has elaborate headquarters in charge or General Secretary Wilbur Wakeman, of New York, and the state secretaries. This organization has overturned the auxiliary leagues, and has over 3,000 oftl oera and correspor.Uenits and over 6,000 newspapers are using Its bur.au matter. It Is evidently forming an alliance here with the antl-sil vert tes of the South, whatever may be Its policy on a further combine for 1806. THE PRESIDENT DECLINES. Washington, June 18. WlUberforce T.TM vensity, the oldest - instltu'ilon in th oountry for the education ot negroes, a few days ago conferred the degree ot LL. D. upon President Cleveland. The president has sent an autograph fetter to President Mitchell, of WMberforce, do. cllnin the honor. ' . The Wilberforce University Is conduct ed under the ausrices of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, end was founded by Bishop D. A. Payne. The presidait has recently shown the Insti tution flavors, and it was in return tot these favors, and in recognition of his worth, that the uhtverstty deutred to con fer upon him the honorary degree. Presi dent Cleveland recently made a cokred man a lieutenant In the army, and de tailed him as special instructor in mili tary tidtios at the university. Then, too, when a postmaster was to be appointed at Wilberforce, Ohio, where the Institu tion is located, the president selected a colored man endorsed' by the faculty of Wilberforce. The president in foils letter Is Bid ti nave expressed 11 high appreciation of the lnstltucKan, but not being a college graduato and having declined a similar honor from one of America's great uni versitltis, he regarded H as but consistent to adhere to that course. DEPEW AT COMMENCEMENT. Nashville, June IS. The event of tlis VanderM It commencement was the ad dress of Chauncey M. Depew. He said in parti "The nearest approach to a complete realization of Ideal pleasure comes with commencement day of a college man. To arumml coming back from the cares and duties of their distant homes, It recttlrs the best days of their lives. For a grad uate H te the supreme moment of his ex istence. Patriotism In a. republic has Ms best support and strongest hops Cn the colleges, wherever else liberty has been crushed by the powers of tyrrany, super stition and blsWtry,' they have never been able to exiMngu.s)i tts light in the halls of karning. The finest example of the pa. trfotlo power of higher education is tne German empire ot today, which Is the outgrowth of the founding of tha Unlver. eity of Berlin." Continuing, he sola: "Man can serve his country more effect ively In preaching and promoting the buiiding of good roads than in spend ng his time in spouting silver fallacies. B not deceived by the glitter of wealth ae the sole measure of success in life. Ths moment tbat In your clttwen vocation jou re suns of ant income beyond the re qu.remeoui of mode Uving, you are s success. .All the rest is accumulative." BOLLIN A DEFAULTER. , Omaha, June 18. City Treasurer Henry Bollln to a defaulter. Experts) are cheefc. lng his books. The facts of the shortags became known thto morning and Bollln at once disappeared, leaving a note to his family saying that the hour had come for him to die. His bonrfomen, who are llU to the amount ,f 1 .:,.-), Ise police to looking for the man. Tonight he wua located in a suburban roadhouse, drunk. He was heavily armed and when the officers appeared he attempted to draw a revolver with which tie declared he intended to end has life. He aurren dared without a struggle. He la now In his bondsmen's hands. They assert they 7AM give him a chance ami wilt settle his shortage In full. Bollln baa been drinking haavily of fate and bas also Vast money In stack spec ulations. Tonight Comptroller Olsen, af ter a hurried checking of Bollin's oc counts, reported a (Shortage of $16,388 out side of tha amount eald to be lacking In the account at the Midland State Bank. The deposit blanks indicated that Bollln had $19,000 deposited there, while the adtual deposit was only $10,000. THE VENEZUELAN QUESTION. Washington, June 18. Sir Edward Gray's statement In parllamenlt yester day that Ambassador Bayard hod been informed that Great Brttaln would con sent to the arbitration of the Venezuelan question under certain conditions - cre ates some surprise among officials here, as Sir Edward's Btaitement is calculated to Shlw that Great Britain has accepted the suggestion of ithe United States, whereas it haa been declined. The de sire of Venezuela to to airbltnaite the en tire boundary question ,and the request of Mr. Bayard to behalf of the United States was in this direction. But the an swer of Great Britain was that no arbi tration was admiasable as regards certain territory which Great Britain asserts la indefensibly here, though she offered to arbitrate concerning certain territory to which apparently Great Britain regarded her title as leas dear. The practical er ect of this was to reject the only proposi tion the United tSates had presented. - SILVER MEETING. ToDtka. Kan..

There were no sex speeches ' during the afternoon meeting, but a number of delegates voted their wilWngness to abandon prospective par. ties for any party which should mak the strongest stand for the free and un limited coinage of silver. Congressman Sibley, of Pennsylvania, spoke br.efly. He saidt "John Sherman and Grove Cleveland are going to mardh tso the polls aind vote together in 1896." MORE EVIDENCE PRODUCED.

B.- sldes the testimony given before the hull and boiler inspectors, A. D. McLelian has received a letter from his brotiur, who has a ranch in Mexi co near the scene of the wreck. Ten of the wreck ed passengers are being cared for by him, and their story of the wreck cor roborates ail that has been sa d agialr.at the management of the ship. McLelian writes that from the story told by the survivors at his place, tlhe wreck was all due to Capt. Taylor.

A Prominent Chicago Operator Presents His Views. CASH DISCOUNT CONTROVERSY Why Jobbing; Houses Believe the Canneryuien Should Never Have Foug-ht Their Propositions. The foil owing ccimmunlcaitlon from A. C. Buttolph, director of tlhe Whiolesale Grocers' Association and a member of the well-known house of W. M. Hoyt Co., Chicago, was received at this office yes terday, The editor of the Astoivan Is gtad to give space for lbs publication, feeling itihat no to?tter presentment of the Jobbers' side of the question at issue could have been maxle. The Commercial Astorian will have some remarks to make concerning this communication in Its next issue. Meanwhile Mr. Buutolph Is assured that these columns are open to him at any time, freely and willingly, for the discuBsLoni of this or any other matter of lntrest to the trade: "We are in receipt of a copy of the Commercial Asitiorian bearing date of May ll'tlh, in wh-ch, you refer to the Wholesale Grocers Of Chicago, relative to the question of a cash discount on canned salmon. In our Judgmemlt, the article does mat state the case fairly, and for this reason, we appeal for a small space In your paper, tso the Jabberu' side of the controversy may be heard. The wholesale trade throughout the United States have felt for a long time that salmon should be classed' In buying with California canned fruits, so far as a cosh discount is concerned. The Job bers of Chicago took the matter up more than a year ago and entered Into corres pondence with the various wholesale gro cers' associations through'tout the states, to get an expression on the question. The replies received practically indicated a unanimous Indorsement of tlhe prop osition. By the time these replies were received, a number of the packers had made the price for the opening season of 1894, on the usual cash basis. It was de cided In view of this not to requ.st the discount on the opening prices, as ft would not -be fair to the can mere, as ohey had tvot been requested to base the opening pries subject to the discount. -irr1 January of this" year the agitation was renewed and the dinners were requeUd before the opening of the season to adjuot their prices to admit of the de sired discount. The trade did not re quest the canners to sell their goods on j me or at epeclfied prices, but wanted hem to change their method from cash litouaflone to discount quotat'o s. The earners depend upon the Jobbers to dis- rr.bute their product, and we are ur prised thoit any objection could be made to a r quest that wouid benefit us, with rit any expe Be to them. It Is ti e cus ' m of Jobber to seCl. at I kirda of earned ?h!3, Including salmon, to the retail doalera on thrty and tlxty da: tlmo, with a each discount, and -It is (old on i vry close margin of profit. A casn dlrooun-t would we believe benefit th. i blei- at leawt to the extent of the dis count, as It would not be taken Into ae on I in flouring the cost of the goods. At a largely attended meeting of tha 'a: ona'. Wholesale Grocers' association, 'leld in Chlcajro April 1, a rovlutlon was unainimoufcCy adupted, requesting salmon ..-a-nnera to concede the discount, and the s c -ciary was tnstruotied to malt a copy of the resolutions to every Jobber In the United States (044) and up to April 2D, 950 replies were received, Indorsing the action of 'the convention. We beeve It would have bejn In the best Interests ot every salmon canner on Ithe coast to have declared themselves in favor of the Job bera' request and arranged opening prices accordingly. Happily a Cargo number, however, are offering the discount from the opening cash price, amongst them are Uhe follower.!?: Hanthorn, 'Warren, Booth, McGowan, M'egler, Elmore, San born & Co., Cook, Gorman Commission Co., and others. The few who are kick ing against ilhe pricks are standing In their own light and must suffer the con. sequences. Thrre should be no conten tion bcoween the packers and Jobbers, and an amicable adjustment of this question Is needed to protect the Interests of all ooncerned." A PIONEER SUICIDES.

Chicago Tribune. .Tha Louisville Courier-Journal has come to the crossing of the roads' and Col, Woi'JUrson, Its editor, Is (Handing at the bl-lateral guide . post f rantically shrinking to tfhs derrtooralts Ot Kentucky not to take the Cheap John morey road, led by Blackburn and Hardin, but the four.d money road, led by Cleveland and Oaollsle. In a double4caded four-column editorial, It very length arguing the fcsperaltion of his fears, he notifies the democrats that they cant be successful If 'they stand by round money, or "an.agon izing the position of (the national demo cratic administration. Intrenched in the pledge on which it wu elected, and mak ing tlie dangerous experiment of swap ping horieS to the middle of the stream, they can go Into tihe campaign hopelessly divided, ..wMt the certainty that from 2,000 to 40,009 democrats, who - have hitherto voted the democraltlc 'ticket, will vote the republican ticket." Col. Wa tier son, after stating the prob lem which oonfrqnit the democrats of Highest of all in Leavening Joyer. Latest U. S. Gov't Report ivfell l V S ft -u, ! I" j'-- fa his state, warns them that as things now stand one-hoSf of them are hewdng straight for the republican camp and tha other haCf for the populist camp, In which, are arrayed "aft ths elements of dis affection, democratic and republican, from WaKe to Altgeld, from Debs to Sibley, from Budd to Coxey forming a veiltabie alliance beJtweem the tramp and the mLllionalre-Jwith bujcSi leaders as WolcoUt and Cameron, wealthy, brilliant, highly educated, and ambitious meni" The hardeBl tlhlnsrs Col. Watterson cam find it in his heiart o say about the re publicans are that "worse thlnss nave happened and worse things may happen, than the gain of Kentucky by the re publicans," and that "the republican party is the child of se-nlttmr.t and pas sion." Yes, worse things have happened. It is worse when Kentucky democrats ars wandering off into populism Just as they wandered off into rebellion and it became necessary to send & lurge number of con servative men from Illinois, Indiana and Ohio down there to correct ithieir mlitokes and show them Uhe error of their ways, for the nor Ui had euch an affection for Kentucky it. could not bear the Idea tit panting with, her. The republican party's most conspicuous eentiment was love of the Union, Its passions were occasioned by the attempt to destroy it. And now a Word to Col. Wattsrson himself. In hts own language: "The course of nattonal development is upon ithe ascending, not the descending scale, and no fast-and-loOBe, cateh-ae-you-can, go-as-you-pleajse, slobbery, Jobbery caKctnv half sport and half tramp wltn Cameron in 'the lead and Vest ito bring up the reair with Morgan to furnish the learning and Jones to All the basket . and Colorado to polijt the moral and Souuh Carolina to adorn the talk cam ever swallow dettnocrats enough to carry the day and lower the flag:!

But, If some of our local statesmen do not have a care, they will be completely iiotrt In the double shuffle going on before their very eyes," The Tribune appeals to Col. Watterson himself not to be lost In the double shuffle. It -recognizes him as a sound1, patriotic man, nearly always right on every question. Upon this occasion h should go wl'tla Ithe republicans, the old friends of Henry Clay. He can treat the tariff as an aibotractlon ito be settled some time hence. Let him Join the 40,000 heading for the republican camp and got Into a respectable pollticail church witn a sound faith. The republicans of Ken. ucky need Juct such a sound money or gam as the C.-J. and If he wli'l come In they will undoutAediiy gi ve him tihe best rocking-chair in the house and make him feel at home at once.' And if onca he gets there he will may there, the sur roundings will be so congenial. .. "PERSON AJj PARAGRAPHS.
