NINTH YEAR. ISSUED BY THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS COMPANY. PUBLISHED QUARTERLY AT CHICAGO, ILL.. BY THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS CO. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $1.00 PER YEAR. NO. I. VOL. IX. JANUARY, 1893. ENTERED AT THE CHICAGO POSTOFFICE AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER. PREFACE. The year 1892 marks an epoch in the political history of the United States, the elections of the year showing a wider and more radical change in the political sentiment of this country than any preceding one. The election tables of the Almanac for 1893, covering more than 100 pages, give the vote in every county (state and territorial), showing exactly where the change of political opinion has been most pronounced. The table of exports and imports by articles for two years enables one to see at a glance the effect of the new tariff legislation on our trade and commerce. A brief history is given of all the presidential nominating conventions and caucuses since Washington. Details of the settlement of our difficulties with Chile and Italy, the progress of the Bering sea dispute and our retaliation on Canada are full of interest. Short sketches of men who became prominent last year and the letters of acceptance from the four presidential candidates are new features in this issue. The World's-Fair matter has been compiled with careful discrimi- nation and will be found of general interest and value. A large assortment of census and other statistics bearing on Indian schools, silver, gold, pen- sions, education, churches, government receipts and expenditures, the liquor traffic, banks, the currency and a great variety of other subjects of value to every intelligent citizen, are to be found in the present volume. THE DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 1893 is replete with new and fresh material. Its aim is to be fair, accurate and strictly non-partisan and no pains or expense have been spared to maintain the high reputation it has already made for completeness and trustworthiness.

NATIONAL NOMINAl Synopsis of all presidential nomic It is not necessary to go very lar back In our history to find the origin of our nominating conventions. The constitution of the United States provided only for the election of the president and vice-president, and the idea was that electors should be chosen by the people of the states, who would not only name the candidate but elect him to his high office. In the choice of our first president this idea was for the first and only time carried out, and without being nominated Washington was chosen president by the first electoral college of tha country. The number of elect- oral votes cast in 1789 was 69, all of which were cast for Washington. John Adams ING CONVENTIONS. ating conventiono from 1789 to 1893. received the next highest number, 34, and was declared vice-president. During the next four years the number of electoral votes in- creased very largely, being 132 at the second presidential election. All of these were cast for Washington, while John Adams received 77 votes for the vice-presidency. The retire- ment of Washington in 17911-7 opened the doors for a host of presidential candidates, there being no other man whom the people could unite on with so much unanimity. Upon open- ing the returns for the election of Washing- ton's successor for the term beginning March 4, 1797, there were found to be no less than thir- teen distinguished names among those voted 40 CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 1893. for for the presidential office. These were John Adams, Jefferson, Thomas Pinckney, Burr, Samuel Adama, Ellsworth, Jay, Clinton, Johnstoue, Iredell, Henry, C. C. Pinckney and Washington. At this election the number of electoral votes had increased to 139, of which John Adams received 71 and Thomas Jefferson the next highest number, 68. 1800. The era of "republican simplicity" was now passing away. The gratitude that impelled the unanimous election of Washington was felt in regard to no other man, and the ac- knowledged leadership which put forward Adams and Jefferson as the two candidates In the third general election was no longer rec- ognized. Hence the date 1800 became an era in our political history, as It was the time of the institution of the nominating caucus. This congressional caucus, which enjoys the honor of being the first, was held In Phila- delphia during the year, and after a good deal of discussion resulted in the nomination of Jefferson for president and Burr for vice- president. The presidential contest this year was between these two on one side and Adams and Pinckney on the other. The electoral vote was 138, and stood 73 each for Jefferson and Burr, 65 for Adams, 64 for Ptnckney, and 1 f or John Jay No choice was made and the elec- tion went to the house of representatives, which, after balloting thirty-six times, during six days, resulted in the election of Jefferson and Burr. In 1804 the contest lay between Jefferson and Pinckney for president and Clinton and King, both of New York, for vice- president. Though there must have been a caucus nomination there is no record of such an event. The electoral vote was 176, of which Jefferson and King received 162 and Pinckney and Clinton 14. 1808. Toward the close of Jefferson's administra- tion the legislature of Virginia fell into dis- cord in regard to the respective claims of Madison and Monrpe for the next presidential term and a republican congressional caucus was held in Washington in January, 1808, to decide which should be nominated. There were 136 republican members of congress, of whom 94 attended the caucus and agreed to nominate Madison. No record exists of the manner in which the opposition made their nominations, but the opposing candidate was Pinckney. The electoral vote was 175, of which Madison received 122, Pinckney 47, and linton 6. The latter for vice-president re- ceived 113 ballots, the scattering votes being divided among a number of rival aspirants. 1812. In May, 1812, a congressional caucus nomi- nated Madison for a second term. This year however, memorable for the first feeble atr tempt at a nominating convention. The op- position had been growing in strength and called a convention to meet in New York in September, 1812. Eleven states were repre- sented at this first convention, and DeWitt linton of New York was placed in nomina- tion, a movement which received the warm- st support from the legislature of that state. The records do not show that any candidate for vice-president was nominated at this con- vention. The election resulted in the choice of Madison. The electoral vote numbered 217, of which Madison, for president, received 128 and Clinton 89, while for vice-president Gerry received 131 and Ingersoll 86. Madison en- tered upon his second term March 4, 1813, but there is no record of his having taken the oath of office. 1816. In 1816, just before the close of Madison's second term, the republican congressional caucus again met and nominated James Mon- roe for president. There were 119 votes in the caucus, of which Monroe received 65 and Crawford of Georgia 54. The opposition fed- eralists were considerably disorganized at this time, since no record exists of any nomina- tion, though their ticket was represented by Rufus King of New York. It hardly seems possible for a convention to have been held of which no records remain, and the more rea- sonable supposition is that King presented himself as a candidate at the request of his friends. His efforts were in vain, for he was badly beaten. The number of electoral votes cast at the election was 217, of which Monroe received 183 and King 34. The contest for vice- president was more lively, as five candidates contested the election. Harper received 4 votes, Ross 5, Marshall 4, Howard 22 and Tompkins 183. 1820. In 1820 the federalists were so much scat- tered and so unable to rally their forces that in effect no opposition was made to the nomi- nation or election of Monroe to his second term. The electoral vote numbered 235, of which Monroe received 231 and John Quincy Adams received 1. As before, five men en- tered the lists for the vice-presidency. Harper and Rush each received 1 vote, Rodney 4, Stockton 8, and Tompkins 218. 1824. In 1824 the caucus feature began to be very displeasing to the republicans in general and great numbers of them gave previous notice that they would not be governed by the dic- tates of the caucus. There were at this time 216 members of congress who were counted as republicans, yet the caucus which nominated Crawford was composed of only sixty-six members, and in consequence of the slim at- tendance and the non-concurrence of the party the nomination of Crawford was very gener- ally repudiated by the republicans. Three other candidates were brought into the field by legislative and popular nominations An- drew Jackson, John Q. Adams and Henry Clay while six nominations for the vice-presi- dency were made. The number of electoral votes in the contest of 1824 was 261, of which Jackson received 99, Adams 84, Crawford 41, and Clay 37. For vice-president Calhoun re- ceived 182 votes, Sandford 3'J, Macon 24, Jack- son 81, Clay 9, and Van Buren 2. No election having been made, the contest went to the house of representatives and Adams was elected by the vote of thirteen states. This "scrub race," as it was called, put an end to the caucus system. 1828. As soon as the contest of 1824 was decided the legislature of Tennessee announced Jack- son as a candidate for the next term. He was opposed by Adams, but no record exists as to the manner of the latter's nomination. Cal- houn, Rush and Smith were candidates for the vice-presidency, but how they were desig- nated as such is not known. The contest was a spirited one, and resulted in Jackson's elec- tion by a large majority. There were 261 elect- oral votes, or which Jackson received 178 and Adams 83. For vice-president Calhoun re- ceived 171, Rush 83, and Smith 7. 1832. We now come to what may properly be re- garded as the convention period of American politics, which has continued down to the NATIONAL NOMINATING CONVENTIONS. present time. The first regular national nominating convention of which any record can be found met in Philadelphia in Septem- ber, 1830. It was called the United States anti-masonic convention, and was composed of ninety-six delegates, \vho represented New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Ohio, Maryland, and Michigan terri- tory. Francis Granger of New York was president, but no business was transacted except to issue a call for another convention of persons opposed to secret societies, to be held at Baltimore. In compliance with this call the national anti-masonic convention assembled at Baltimore Sept. 26, 1831. There were 112 delegates present, every state being represented, but only New York, Massachu- setts and Pennsylvania had the full number of delegates allowed. This movement had its origin in the excitement caused by the alleged killing of Morgan for disclosing the secrets of freemasonry. John C. Spencer of New York was chosen president. The convention nomi- nated William Wirt of Maryland for presi- dent, and Amos Bllmaker of Pennsylvania for vice-president. In May, 1832, the first national democratic convention was held in Baltimore. The party was entirely satisfied with Jackson, and there could be no organized opposition to his re- nomination, and so it was unanimously con- firmed by the convention. The real purpose of the convention was the nomination of a vice-presidential candidate, the party having fallen out with Calhoun. At this convention Gen. Robert Lucas of Ohio presided, and the regular proceedings began with the adoption of the famous two-thirds rule, which has been affirmed in every national democratic conven tion from that day to this. Delegates to the number of 313 were present. Martin Van Buren was nominated for vice-president, re- ceiving 203 votes. The republicans recognized the fact that conventions were to be the popular means for nomination of candidates, and accordingly met in convention at Baltimore Dec. 12, 1831. James Barbour was chosen president. There were 157 delegates present, representing seventeen states and the District of Columbia. No formal declaration of principles was made, but an address was published dealing with the shortcomings of Gen. Jackson, in which he and his administration were severely criti- cised. The unanimous vote of the convention was cast for Henry Clay as the candidate for the presidency, and for John Sergeant for vice-president. The address of the conven- tion recommended another convention of "young men of the republican party," and in pursuance thereof a convention was held May 11, 1832, in Washington. William C. Johnson was chairman, but as the nominations of the party had been made the preceding autumn nothing was left for the convention to do ex- cept to pass resolutions, which it did, in favor of industrial protection and internal improve- ments, and against the rotation in office prin- ciple lately promulgated by Jackson. In the contest of 1832 there were twenty other candidates who ran without having regular party nominations. In the election the electoral votes numbered 288; for presi- dent Wirt received 7, Floyd 11, Henry Clay 49, and Jackson 219. For vice-president Ellmaker received 7 votes. Lee 11, Wilkins 30, Sergeant 49, and Van Buren 189. 1836. The years 1835 and 1836 saw the convention system fairly under way. There were two nominating conventions held. The demo- cratic national convention assembled in Baltimore in May, with representatives from twenty-one states. Andrew Stevenson pre- sided and for the first time there was a long list of honorary vice-presidents. Only one ballot for the presidential nomination was taken, which resulted in the unanimous choice of Martin Van Buren. The ballot for vice- president resulted in 87 votes for Rives and 178 for R. M. Johnson. No platform was adopted by the convention. A whig state convention held in Harrisburg, Pa., in the latter part of 1835, by acclamaticn nominated William Henry Harrison and Francis Granger for the national ticket, and a democratic anti-masonic convention held soon after in the same city ratified the nom- ination of Harrison, but substituted John Tyler in place of Granger for the vice-presi- dency. A number of other nominations were made by state legislatures and other bodies, whose records have been lost. There were in all five candidates for president and in the election Mangum received 11 votes, Webster 14, White 26, Harrison 73, and Van Buren 176. For vice-president there were four candidates. Smith received 23 votes, Taylor 47, Granger 77, and Johnson 147. 1840. The years 1839 and 1840 saw three conven- tions, the first of which was also the first abolition convention ever held in the United States. Its session began at Warsaw, N. Y., Nov. 13, 1839, and lasted several days. Distinct abolition principles were announced in its platform and James G. Birney was nominated for president, Francis J. LeMoyne for vice- president. Although these candidates de- clined the nominations, they received 7,609 votes in the northern states. The whig national conven tion met at Harris- burg, Pa., Dec. 4, 1839. Twenty-one states were represented by 254 delegates, and James Barbour presided. Balloting was carried on in the committee of the whole for several days, but no result was reached until the Scott delegates went over to Harrison. The first ballot in the convention resulted in 16 votes for Winfield Scott, 90 for Henry Clay, and 148 for William Henry Harrison. There was no contest over the vice-presidency, John Tyler being the unanimous choice of the conven- tion. The national democratic convention assem- bled at Baltimore June 5, 1840. Delegates from twenty-one states were present and William Carroll presided. Van Buren was unani- mously nominated for president, but when the question of vice-president arose the dissen- sion was so serious that no choice was made, but the designation of a candidate was left to the people. In this election the number of electoral votes was 294, of which Van Buren received 60 and Harrison 234. There were four candidates for vice-president. Polk received 1 vote, Tazewell 11, Johnson 48, and Tyler 234. 1844. The canvass of 1844 was preceded by three national conventions. The liberal party na- tional convention began at Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 30, 1843. It was virtually the abolition party under a new name and adopted an ex- tended declaration of belief embodying the i principles of abolitionism afterward openly expressed by the republican party. Leicester King presided, and the nominees were James G. Birney for president and Thomas Morris for vice-president. The whig national convention assembled in Baltimore May 1, 1844, and was composed of delegates from every state in the union. Am- | brose Spencer was president and Henry Clay was nominated for president without a dis- 1 senting voice. The choice of a vice-president i'2 CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR was more difficult and three ballots were taken before a choice was made. On the last jallot Frelinghuysen received 155 votes, Davis I. and Fillmore 40. The democratic national convention met in Baltimore May 27, 1844. The two-thirds rule was responsible for the convention being a hot one. Nine ballots were taken, there De- ng f onr candidates on the first. Of the votes cast Van Buren received 146, Cass 93, Johnson 29, and Buchanan 4. There was not much change in the balloting until the eighth, when Van Buren received 104. Cass 114, Buchanan 2, Calhoun 2, and Polk 44. This was the first ballot in which Folk's name was mentioned. On the ninth ballot Polk received 233 votes, Van Buren 2, and Cass 29. Silas Wright was nominated for vice-president, but he declined and George M. Dallas was substituted. The result was the election of Polk, he receiving 170 electoral votes and Clay 105. 1848. Three conventions preceded the contest of this year. The democratic convention was beld in Baltimore May 27, 1848. There was considerable trouble at the outset with the credentials of the delegates who claimed recognition. New York sent two delegations. 3ne commonly known as ''barnburners" and the other as "hunkers." The convention sought to please all by admitting both, but neither delegation was satisfied unless the others were excluded, and accordingly both withdrew. Andrew Stevenson presided. Four ballots were taken, the candidates being Cass, Woodbury, Buchanan, Calhoun, Dallas, | Worth and Butler. Cass began with 125 votes on the first ballot and ran up to 179 on the ! fourth, and was nominated. Three ballots ere taken for vice-president, on the first of which William O. Butler received 114 and Jefferson Davis 1, the remainder being scat- tered among several candidates. Butler gained on the second and was nominated on the third ballot. The "barnburners," who bolted the convention, were so incensed at the nomination of Cass and Butler that they called a convention at Utica.N. Y., June 22. Samuel Young presided, and Van Buren was made the nominee for president and Henry Dodge for vice-president. The whig national convention met in Phila- delphia June 7, 1848. John M. Morehead pre- sided. The candidates were Taylor, Clay, Scott, Webster, Clayton and McLean, and four ballots were taken. The number of votes was 270, and on the last ballot Taylor, who had started with 111, received 171, and was declared the nominee. Fillmore was nomi- nated on the second ballot for vice-president. Aug. 9, 1848, a free-soil convention assem- bled at Buffalo, having representatives from eighteen states. Charles Francis Adams pre- sided, and Van Buren and Adams were made the nominees of the convention. In a long platform the convention protested vigorously against the action of the whig and democratic conventions and demanded the freedom of the slaves in the style used later by the aboli- tionists.

William R. King was nominated on the second ballot for vice-president. The whigs met at Baltimore June 16 and an uproarious session of six days followed. There were no sudden or startling changes, as in the Van Buren and Adams received no votes at democratic convention, but the gain of the the fall election. The electoral vote in 1848 I successful candidate was slow and gradual was 290, of which Taylor secured 163, and Cass 127. 1852. The campaign of 1852 was a spirited one and opened in a spirited way. The democratic convention met in Baltimore June 1 and was presided over by John W. Davis of Indiana. There were ten candidates, and forty-nine ballots were taken before a candidate was nominated. Trie ballot sheet is called one of The candidates were Scott. Webster and Fill more and the number necessary to a choice was 147, Scott began with 131 votes and in creased his number slowly until the fifty third ballot, when he had 159.

John P. Hale and George W. Julian were nominated for president and vice-president respectively but at the subsequent election received no electoral votes. The number of electoral votes was 296 and of these Pierce and King received 254, while Scott and Graham received only 42. In this contest Pierce and King carried all the states except Tennessee, Kentucky, Massachusetts and Vermont. 1856. Four conventions were held in 1856, The first in order was that of the American na- tional council which met in Philadelphia Feb. 19 and was presided over by E. B. Bartlett. Three days were spent In adopting a platform, which was mainly a "know-nothing," anti- administration declaration. A president was nominated on the first ballot, which stood: Fillmore 179, Law 24, Raynor 14, McLean 13, Davis 10, and Houston 10. Andrew J. Donelson was nominated for vice-president on the first ballot. The democrats met at Cincinnati June 2, John E. Ward presiding. Pro-slavery and state-rights resolutions of the strongest character were adopted and seventeen ballots were taken before a nomination was made. The candidates were Buchanan, Pierce, Cass and Douglas. Buchanan began with 135 votes and gained steadily to 296, a unanimous nomination. Pierce began with 122 and fell off gradually until the last ballot. Douglas began with 33 votes, rose to 121, and on the last ballot had 3^ votes. The highest vote received by Cass was 7. Ten candidates sought the vice-presidential nomination, but on the second ballot all withdrew except Breckenridge, who was unanimously nom- inated. The first republican national convention assembled in Philadelphia June 17, Henry S. Lane of Indiana being chosen presiding officer. The platform was decidedly anti- slavery. An informal ballot for president was taken to test the preferences of the delegates, and showed 359 votes for John C. Fremont, against 1% for McLean. The nomination of Fremont was at once declared unanimous. An informal ballot for vice-president was taken, which resulted as follows: Henry C. Carey received 3 votes, S. C. Pomeroy 8, John A. King 9, Henry Wilson 9, A. C. M. Pennington 1, N. P. Banks 46, W. F. Johnston 2, J. R. Giddings 2, Jacob Collamer 15, Cassius M. Slay 4, Charles Sumner 35, Thomas Ford 7. avid Wilmot 43, Abraham Lincoln 110, and William L. Dayton 259. The latter was unani- mously nominated, but this informal ballot will always be memorable as showing the popularity of Mr. Lincoln at this early day. The whigs met at Baltimore Sept. 17, Edward Bates presiding. The platform dep- recated the reign of strong partisan feeling and advocated peace and quiet. Fillmore and Donelson were unanimously nominated, but in the subsequent election carried only Maryland. Of the 296 electoral votes Buchanan and Breckenridge received 174, Fremont and Day- ton 114, and Fillmore and Donelson 8. 1860. The year 1860 marks a new era in American politics and the conventions of this year show the great upheaval that had taken place In the minds of the people. An account of the conventions of this year is given more in detail for this reason. The national demo- cratic convention met at Charleston April 23. Every state in the union was represented by full delegations, but the party dissensions in Illinois and New York caused the sending of two delegations from each of these states, ^rancis B. Flournoy was chosen temporary chairman. The exclusion of the "Wood 5 ' delegation from New York and the admission of the Douglas delegation from Illinois In- flamed the southern members of the conven- tion at the very start and much angry debate followed. Caleb Cushing was chosen perma- nent chairman and a platform committee was selected, it being insisted that a platform was necessary before a candidate was nomi- nated. The platform committee wrangled four days and were unable to agree and ac- cordingly four platforms were submitted to the convention from which to select one. The platform presented by the majority of the committee declared "that congress had no power to abolish slavery in the territories; that the territorial legislature had no power to abolish slavery in the territories, nor to prohibit the introduction of slavery therein, nor any power to destroy or impair the right of property in slaves by any legislation what- ever;" and "that it is the duty of the federal government to protect the right of persons and property on the high seas, in the terri- tories or whereve/ else its jurisdiction ex- tends." These ultra pro-slavery declarations were dissented from by others of the com- mittee who, headed by Henry B. Payne, brought in a minority report, reaffirming the Cincinnati platform of 1856, which advocated the non-interference of congress with slavery in the territories and declared that slavery was a question of property as such should be decided by the Supreme court and pledged the democracy to abide by the decision of that court. '1 his minority report was signed by members of the committee from Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, Illi- nois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, New York and Pennsylvania. A third report was presented by Gen. B. F. Butler, which in- dorsed the Cincinnati platform with some trivial alterations. A fourth report was pre- sented by J. A. Bayard, which also affirmed the Cincinnati platform with the proviso that all citizens had equal rights in the territories. These reports were all sent back to the com- mittee and on the next day Mr. Avery brought in a modified platform from the majority. This asserted the rights of the slave-holders in the territories and when a sufficient number of inhabitants were in any territory the same should be admitted as a state without taking the slavery question into consideration at all. The minority re- port was brought in by Mr. Samuels of Iowa and embodied the same measures that were urged by the three minority reports pre- viously submitted. The majority report was adopted by the convention by a vote of 165 to 138. This action of the convention was bit- terly resented by the southern delegates and the delegation of Alabama offered a protest to the proceedings and afterward withdrew from the convention. The delegations from Florida, Mississippi and Texas followed the lead of Alabama. Parts of the delegations from Louisiana, South Carolina, Arkansas, Delaware and North Carolina also withdrew. After the withdrawal of these delegates the convention proceeded to ballot for president. The full convention contained 303 members, but a large number had withdrawn, so that a two-thirds vote of 202 members would be diffi- cult for any one candidate to secure. The two-thirds rule prevailed and the result was that no nomination was made at Charleston. Fifty-seven ballots were taken, however, the candidates being Douglas, Guthrie, Hunter. CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR Dickinson, Andrew Johnson, Lane, Jefferson Davis, Toucy and Pierce. The candidate who bad the highest vote was Douglas, who re- ceived 152& The convention adjourned to meet at Baltimore on the 18th of June. At the appointed time full representations were pres- ent from all those states which had not with- drawn from the Charleston convention, and the delegations that ha-d left that convention were excluded from this. Enraged at this ex- clusion of the seceding delegates the delega- tions from Virginia, North Carolina, Tennes- see, California and Delaware, together with portions of the delegations from Maryland, Kentucky, Massachusetts and Missouri, re- tired from the convention. Mr. Cushing, the chairman, also retired and Gen. Todd of Ohio was chosen in his place. Balloting for president began, Douglas, Breckenridge and Guthrie being placed in nomination. Two ballots were taken. On the first Breckenridge received 5 Guthrie 10 and Douglas 173^. On the second Guthrie received 5^, Breckenridge 7^i and Douglas 181^. After the second bal- lot Douglas was unanimously nominated. Fitzpatrick was nominated for vice-president, but declined, and Herschel V. Johnson of Georgia was substituted. The seceders from the Baltimore conven- tion met in that city June 28. In all, twenty- one states were fully or in part represented, but there were no delegates from Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Carolina or Wisconsin. Caleb Cushing presided. The two-thirds rule was adopted and the delegates who had been refused ad- mission to the regular convention were urged to unite with this body. The Avery platform, upon which the Charleston convention had split, was unanimously adopted. One ballot was taken for president, John C. Breckenridge receiving 105 votes, being the whole number of delegates present. Joseph Lane of Oregon was nominated on the first ballot for vice- president. The band of seceders from the Charleston convention met at Richmond June 11 and organized by choosing John Erwin as chair- man. Delegates were present from Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, Tennessee and Virginia. This convention did nothing more than ratify the nominations of Brecken- ridge and Lane made by the Baltimore seceders. A constitutional union convention was held at Baltimore May 9. It promulgated strictly union and constitutional principles. The candidates for president were John Bell, Sam Houston, John M. Butts, John McLean, J. J. Crittenden, Edward Everett, W. L. Goggin, W. A. Graham, W. L. Sharkey and W. C. Rives. Bell and Everett were unanimously nominated. The republican national convention met in Chicago May 1(>. It was called to order by David Wilmot and was composed of delegates from all the free states, together with repre- s -ntatives from Delaware, Maryland, Vir- ginia, Kentucky, Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri. George Ashmun of Massachusetts was chosen permanent chairman. The ma- jority rule in nominating candidates was adopted. The platform adopted boldly de- clared the condition to which the country had been reduced was due to the continued years of democratic rule and promulgated repub- lican doctrines in regard to slavery in the territories. The eighth plank in the platform was specially directed against slavery and declared it to be a shameless institution and that it should not be spread in the territories of the United States. The candidates for president were many, including Seward, Lincoln, Wade, Cameron, Bates, McLean, Reade, Chase. Dayton, Sumner, Fremont, Callamer, and C. M. Clay. The result of the balloting was as follows: 1. 2. 3. Seward 1731^ igii^ 180 Lincoln 102 181 231^ Wade | Cameron 5QU Bates y* 35 2 McLean 12 g 5 Reade. 1 Chase 49 42U 24 !*> Dayton 14 10 1 Sumner Fremont . 1 Callamer.. 10 Clay 2 1 After the third ballot Lincoln lacked only 2^ votes of a nomination. A change of 4 votes in Ohio from Chase to Lincoln made his nomination assured. Changes rapidly fol- lowed until the nomination was made unani- mous. The balloting for vice-president was: Clay Banks Reeder Hickman Hamlin Read Davis, Dayton Houston " SS 194 1 The whole number of electoral votes was 315, of which Lincoln and Hamlin received 180, Breckenridge and Lane 72, Bell and Everett 39, and Douglas and Johnson 12. 1864. The war was in progress in 1864 and the nominating conventions were few and devoid of any interest except such as arose from the question of preservation of the union. The republicans met in Baltimore June 7, William Dennison of Ohio presiding. There was a very full representation of delegates, many being admitted from the states actually in rebellion. The convention was unanimously in favor of Lincoln's re- nomination and on the first ballot he received 497 votes, being the entire vote of the conven- tion except 22 votes from Missouri, which were given toGen.Grant. The vice-presidential candidates were Hamlin, L. H. Rosseau, D. S. Dickinson and Andrew Johnson. As the first ballot was taken every one perceived the great numerical strength of Johnson and he was nominated on the first ballot. The democrats met in Chicago Aug. 19. Horatio Seymour was the permanent presi- dent. The attendance of delegates was by no means full and little interest was manifested in the convention either by the people or the delegates. George B. McClellan was nomin- ated for president on the first ballot, receiv- ing 202}^ votes, while Seymour received 23^. The candidates for vice-president were Pen- dleton, Guthrie, D. W. Voorhees, G. W. Cass, August Dodge, J. D. Catron. Powell and Phelps. Before the second ballot all had withdra wn, leaving Mr. Pendleton a clear field, and he was nominated. The number of elect- NATIONAL NOMINATING CONVENTIONS. oral votes was 331 and of these Lincoln and Johnson received 212 and McClellan and Pen- dleton 21. 1868. The republicans led off in the conventions of the year, meeting at Chicago May 20, with Gen. Hawley as presiding officer. There was only one sentiment in the party regarding a presidential candidate and Gen. Grant received every vote in the convention on the first ballot. For the vice-presidency there was more difference of opinion. Colfax, Wade, Hamlin, Fenton, Wilson, Curtin, Kelly, Har- lan, Pomeroy, Speid, and Cresswell all sought the nomination. Five ballots were taken and Colfax was unanimously nominated on the fifth. The democrats met in the city of New York on July 4. Horatio Seymour presided. There were a large number of aspirants for the presidential nomination, including Hancock, Hendricks, Seymour, English, Doolittle, John- son, Chase, McClellan, Field, Hoffman, Blair and Pendleton. Twenty-two ballots were taken and Seymour was nominated while seated in the chair guiding the deliberations of the convention. Frank P. Blair was nom- inated on the first ballot for vice-president. The number of electoral votes was 294, of hich Grant and Colfax received 214 and Sey- mour and Blair 80. 1872. The first convention of the year was that of e national prohibition party. This party had been organized at a meeting called for that purpose at Chicago Sept. 1, 1869. The name first adopted was the anti-dramshop party, but before the meeting adjourned the name was changed. The party convention met at Columbus, O.. Feb. 22, 1872. The Rev. John Russell called the convention to order; the Hon. Henry Fish was chosen temporary and the Hon. S. P. Chase permanent chair- man. The platform declared for prohibition in the sale of intoxicating liquors and for suffrage without regard to "color, race, for- mer social condition, sex or nationality." The subject of nominations was referred to a committee of thirteen, who reported the name of James Black of Pennsylvania for president and that of the Rev. John Russell of Michigan for vice-president. The chief interest, however, In the cam- paign of 1882 centered in the liberal repub- lican movement. This movement originated n Missouri in 1870, its chief instigators being ^arl Schurz and B. Gratz Brown. It consisted of moderate democrats and disgruntled re- publicans, who united in a state campaign in support of the "libera. ticket." A mass state convention was called by the republican wing of the party to meet at Jefferson City Jan 24 1872, and at this meeting nearly every county n the state was represented It closed its proceedings by issuing a call for a national convention at Cincinnati on the first Monday n May "to take such action as their convic- tions of duty and of public exigencies may require." Jan. 9 the democratic state central committee of Missouri issued an address "avoring the making of no nominations in 872 and the support of the candidate of ;he disaffected republicans. On May 1 a large convention of liberal republicans as- sembled in Cincinnati and organized by mak- ng Carl Schurz of Missouri the permanent !hairman. A platform was adopted which was believed to be broad enough to accom- modate democrats as well as republicans. Without the formal naming of candidates the balloting for president began. Six ballots were taken, with the following result: BALLOTS. 306 IV.I 14881 15f>44 141 91 19 1()0 92fc 95 62 Before the sixth ballot was announced Min- nesota changed 9 votes from Trumbull to Greeley. Pennsylvania changed her vote to 50 for Greeley and 6 for Davis. Indiana changed her 27 19 Adams. Other changes followed and the chairman announced the result as 482 for Greeley and 187 for Adams. For vice-president B. Gratz Brown was nominated on the second ballot, receiving 495 against 175 for G. W. Julian, 75 for S. C. Walker, 3 for T. W. Tiptpn, and 8 for John M. Palmer. Many of the liberal republicans were dissatisfied with the nomina- tion of Greeley, and a meeting was held in New York May 30, composed of such persons. In compliance with the views of this meeting a conference was subsequently held on June 20 of persons invited. The invitation to this conference was signed by Carl Schurz, Jacob D. Cox, William Cullen Bryant, Oswald Otten- dorfer. David A. Wells, and Jacob Brinkerhoff. A series of resolutions was adopted, and William S. Groesbeck of Ohio was nominated for president and F. L. Olmsted of New York for viee-president. During the ex- citement of this canvass this ticket was lost sight of and at the ensuing election received no votes. The republicans assembled in Philadelphia June 5. Morton McMichael was made the tem- porary and Thomas Settle the permanent chairman. The demand of the party was unanimously for Gen. Grant for a second term and he was renominated by acclamation. For the vice-presidency Henry Wilson received 364^ votes to 312J6 for Schuyler Colfax and Mr. Wilson was nominated. The democrats met at Baltimore July 9 and were presided over by James R Doolittle. Resolutions were adopted that were in harmony with the Cincinnati platform of the liberal republicans. There were 7:32 delegates in the convention, and the vote, in the nom- inating of a candidate for the presidency, stood as follows: Horace Greeley 686, James A Bayard 15, Jeremiah Black 21, William S. Groesbeck 2, blank 8. Mr. Greeley received more than two-thirds and was declared the nominee. B. Gratz Brown received 713 votes for vice-president. Some democrats who were opposed to the nomination of Greeley met in Louisville Sept. 3 to nominate a so-called "straight-out" dem- ocratic ticket The convention was called to order by Blanton Duncan, and James Lyons was made the permanent chairman. The platform declared that "we proclaim to the world that principle is to be preferred to power; that the democratic party is held together by the cohesion of time-honored principles, which they will never surrender 46 CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 18U3. in exchange for all the offices which presi- dents can confer.

Mr. O'Conor persistently refused to be a candi- date, and Mr. Adams consented only on the condition that Mr. O'Conor withdraw his declination. This was not done, and a small number of votes was given for the ticket in the country. There were 349 votes in the electoral college, of which Grant and Wilson received 286, Thomas A. Hendricks 42, B. Gratz Brown 18, Charles J. Jenkins 2, and David Davis 1. Mr. Greeley died after the election and the dem- ocrats scattered their votes. 1876. Four tickets were in the field in the cam- paign of 1876. The national prohibition re- form party assembled at Cleveland May 17. Over 100 delegates were present, representing the states of Connecticut, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Massachu- setts, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsyl- vania, and Wisconsin. The Rev. H. A. Thompson was permanent chairman. The Hon. Green Clay Smith of Kentucky was nominated for president and the Hon. G. T. Stewart of Ohio was nominated for vice-presi- dent At the ensuing election no electoral votes were cast for the nominees. A convention of independents, commonly called the national greenback convention, as- sembled at Indianapolis May 17. Nineteen states were represented by 239 delegates. The platform demanded "the immediate and un- conditional repeal of the specie resumption act of Jan. 14, 1875, and the rescue of our in- dustries from the ruin and disaster resulting from its enforcement." Peter Cooper of New York was nominated for president and New- ton Booth of California for vice-president. Mr. Booth subsequently declined, and Samuel F. Gary of Ohio was substituted in his place. No electoral votes were given the candidates. The republicans met in Cincinnati June 14, and organized their convention by electing Edward McPherson chairman. There were a number of candidates for the presidential nomination, and seven ballots were taken, with the following result: BALLOTS. 4 S..., 293 351 113995811 111 121 126 84 71 114 82 69 111 21 !:> fis ^4 71 s:i ,:'.) 8150 William A. Wheeler was then nominated for vice-president. The democratic national convention met in St. Louis June 28 and was organized by the choice of John A. McClernand as chairman. The platform was called the reform platform because it proposed to reform all the alleged abuses which had grown up under the re- publican rule. One of the planks denounced "the present tariff levied upon nearly 4,000 articles as a masterpiece of injustice, inequal- ity, and false pretense. It yields a dwindling, not a yearly rising revenue. It has impover- ished many industries to subsidize a few. It prohibits imports that might purchase the products of American labor. It has degraded American commerce from the first to an in- ferior rank on the high seas. It has cut down the sales of American manufacture at home and abroad and depleted the returns of American agriculture an industry followed by half our people. * * * It pro- motes fraud, fosters smuggling, enriches dis- honest officials and bankrupts honest mer- chants. We demand that all custom-house tax- ation shall be for revenue only." There were 738 delegates. The vote for presidential candi- date stood: First ballot. Samuel J. Tilden 404J^, William Allen 54, A. G. Thurman 3, Thomas A. Hendricks 140K T, F. Bavard 33, Joel Parker 18, W. S. Hancock 75, M. 'Broad- head 16. The second ballot stood: Tilden 5X5, A len 54, Thurman 2, Hendricks 85, Bayard 4, Hancock 58; necessary for a choice 492. Mr. Hendricks was nominated for vice-president. There being a dispute over the electoral votes of Florida, Louisiana, Oregon and South Carolina, they were referred by congress to an electoral commission composed of eight republicans and seven democrats, which by a strict party vote awarded 185 electoral votes to Hayes and Wheeler and 184 to Tilden and Hendricks. 1880. Gen. Grant returned to the United States from a trip around the world late in 1879. He had everywhere been received with a dis- tinguished consideration that was gratifying to the pride of the American people. His re- turn under these circumstances caused his name to be connected with the republican nomination for the presidency for a third term. No sooner was this done than a strong opposition to his nomination appeared in the republican party. So strong was this senti- ment that a republican anti-third term con- vention was held in St. Louis on May 6, presided over by J. B. Henderson, at which strong resolutions were adopted oppos- ing the nomination of Gen. Grant. In many states, notably New York, the sentiment in favor of Grant was equally prominent. The national convention met in Chicago June 2 and a six days' session followed. George F. Hoar was both temporary and per- manent president of the convention. A long controversy ensued over the power of state conventions to name delegates from the con- gressional districts and bind their action by instructions. Several days were spent in de- bating this question, and it was finally decided that state conventions had not the power to bind district delegates by instructions. This decision resulted in the loss of many votes for Gen. Grant. The platform did not differ greatly from previous party utterances. The fifth plank, however, contained this sentence: "We affirm the belief, avowed In 1876, that the duties levied for purposes of revenue should so discriminate as to favor American labor." This was all that was said regarding a tariff. The first ballot for president was taken on the 7th, the fifth day of the convention, and be- fore a nomination was made 36 ballots were necessary. The vote in detail was as follows: NATIONAL NOMINATING CONVENTIONS. 47 BALLOT.

Chester A. Arthur was nominated on the first ballot for vice-president. The greenback or national greenback-labor party took an active part in the canvass, its convention being held at Chicago on the 9th of June. The first ballot for a presidential candidate was informal and resulted as fol- lows: James B. Weaver 224}^, Herrick B. Wright 12o^, Stephen B. Dillage 119, B. F. But- ler 95, Solon Chase 39, E. P. Ahls 41, and Alex- ander Campbell 21. By a change of votes be- fore a result was announced Gen. Weaver was unanimously nominated. Gen. James B. Chambers was nominated for vice-president. The prohibitionists met at Cleveland June 17. The number of delegates present was 142. The Rev. A. A. Miner was chosen permanent chairman. Neal Dow of Maine and A. H. Thompson of Ohio were nominated for presi- dent and vice-president by a rising vote. The democratic convention was held at Cin- cinnati June 22. It was expected that Mr. Til- den would be the nominee, but two days prior to the meeting of the convention he pub- lished a letter withdrawing his name. Gen. Stevenson was chosen permanent chairman. The platform declared for "no sumptuary laws, separation of church and state, common schools fostered and protected, home rule, honest money, consistency of gold and silver and paper convertible into coin on demand, the strict maintenance of the public faith, state and national, and a tariff for revenue only."

Henderson was chosen permanent chairman. The platform was reported by William McKinley, Jr., of Ohio, and contained the first declaration in favor of a protective tariff ever made by the party. It was as follows: "It is the first duty of a good government to protect the rights and promote the inter- ests of its own people. The largest diversity of industry is most productive of general prosperity and of the comfort and independ- ence of the people. We therefore demand that the Imposition of duties on foreign im- ports shall be made, not for revenue only, but that in raising the requisite revenues for the government such duties shall be so levied as to afford security to our diversified industries and protection to the rights and wages of the laborer, to the end that active and intelligent labor, as well as capital, may have its just re- ward and the laboring man his full share In the national prosperity." The balloting for a presidential candidate followed the adoption of the platform and resulted as follows: James G. Elaine Chester A Arthur G.F.Edmunds , John A. Logan.... John Sherman J. R. Hawley Robert T. Lincoln. W. T. Sherman 541 Gen. Logan was npmlnated for vice-presi- dent without opposition. The democrats met in Chicago July 8, Will- iam F.

The platform stated : "Wo therefore denounce the abuses of the existing tariff, and, subject to the pendlnylimitations, wedemand that federal taxation shall be exclusively for public purposes and shall not exceed the needs of the government economically admin- istered." The platform was very long. Gen. Butler submitted a minority report, which was a formal and explicit declaration in favor of a protective tariff, but the report was rejected by a vote of 97V* yeas to 714^ nays. Two ballots were taken for presidential nomi- nee, which stood as follows: 48 CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR Grover Cleveland T. F. Bayard Joseph McDonald S.J.Randall A. G. Thurman J. G. Carlisle George Hoadly T. A. Hendricks S. J. Tilden R. P. Flower Mr. Hendricks was nominated for vice- president. The prohibition convention assembled at Pittsburg July 23, there being 410 accredited delegates present from thirty-one states and territories. Samuel Dickie of Michigan was chosen permanent cha'rman. John P. St. John of Kansas was nominated for president and William Daniel of Maryland for vice- president. The platform demanded prohibi- tion in the manufacture and sale of intoxi- cants, the ballot for women, and arraigned both the old parties for the ills that beset the people. A national convention of the anti-monopoly party met in Chicago May 14 and nominated Benjamin F. Butler for president. The national greenback-labor party met at Indian- apolis May 27, and was presided over by Gen. J. B. Weaver. Gen. Butler was asked if he would accept the presidential nomination from the party, and, responding in the affirma- tive, he was nominated on the first ballot. Absalom M. West was selected for the vice- presidency. The platform favored substitut- ing greenbacks for national bank notes, the destruction of "land, railroad, money and other gigantic corporate monopolies," and favored raising the revenues by duties on luxuries. The electoral college had 401 votes, of which Cleveland and Hendricks received 219, and Blaine and Logan 182. 1888. The democratic convention met in St. Louis June 5. and organized with Patrick A. Collins for permanent chairman. For some time be- fore the meeting the renomination of Mr. Cleveland was conceded, and the only inter- est centered in the vice-presidency. For the second office only two names were before the convention Isaac P. Gray of Indiana and Allen G. Thurman of Ohio. Mr. Thurman was nominated on the first ballot, receiving 690 votes to 105 for Mr. Gray and 25 for John C. Black of Illinois. The republicans met at Chicago June 19. In the early part of the year it seemed prob- able that Mr. Blaine would be the nominee of the convention, but on the 12th of February, in a letter addressed by him to B. F. Jones, dated in Florence, he said that as personal reasons would prevent him from entering the contest his name "would not be presented to the convention." No serious efforts had been made in behalf of any candidate except John Sherman, whose nomination had been urged by the Ohio state convention in July, 1887. After the letter of Mr. Blaine other state con- ventions recommended the nomination of "favorite sons." May SO Mr. Blaine wrote another letter in which he said that he could not accept the nomination without showing bad faith toward those candidates who, relying oniliis former letter, were already in the field, and therefore he could not accept at all. The convention organized by choosing John M. Thurston temporary and M. Estee for permanent chairman. The platform was presented on the third day. On the tariff the platform said: "We are uncompromisingly in favor of the American system of protection: we protest against its destruction as proposed by the president and his party. They serve the interests of Europe; we will support the interests of America. We accept the issue and confidently appeal to the people for their judgment. The protective system must be maintained." Eight ballots were taken in nominating a presidential candidate, as follows: Alger Depew Gresham Hawley Phelps Sherman Lincoln Allison Fitler Harrison Ingalls Rusk Blaine McKinley Foraker Douglas 1. 2. 8411 329 249 244 235 2& 244 230 118 108 113 3.14. 12 -1 !: 143137 120 100 94 -210 212 231 279 544 The vice-presidency went to Levl P.

Fisk was nominated for president and John A. Brooks for vice-president. Consider- able discussion arose over the platform, espe- cially upon the subject of woman suffrage, which was decided in favor of unlimited suf- frage. The united labor party held its conven- tion May 15 at Cincinnati, 274 delegates being present. This party was formed Feb. 22, 1887, at a convention held in the same city, to which delegates had been invited from the labor and farmer organizations, including knights of labor, wheelers, the corn-growers, the homesteadry, farmers' alliances, green- backers and grangers. The convention nomi- nated A. J. Streeter of Illinois for president and C. E. Cunningham of Arkansas for vice- president. The platform, after reciting the hardships of farmers and laborers, declared against land monopoly, for government own- ership of railroads, postal savings banks, free coinage of silver, arbitration in strike dis- putes, a service pension bill, a graduated income tax, popular election of senators, ex- clusion of the Chinese and female suffrage. The union labor convention was held in Cincinnati May 16. The party was made up from the greenbackers, farmers' organizations and other labor reformers. The convention consisted of ninety delegates, representing nine states. Robert H. Cowdrey of Illinois was nominated for president and W. H. T. Wakefleld of Kansas for vice-president. The platform demanded public ownership of land, taxing of land according to value instead of area, government ownership of railroads and telegraphs, reduction in hours of labor, sim- plification of court proceedings, and de- nounced both the old parties as "hopelessly and shamelessly corrupt." The national convention of the American party was held at Washington Aug. 14, 126 delegates being present, more than half of whom were from New York. The opposition to the dictation of New York led to the with- drawal of twenty-five delegates from other states. James L. Curtis of New York was nominated for president and James R.

SALES OF MALT LIQUORS. 51 SALES OF MALT LIQUORS FOR 1892. The Brewers' Journal for July publishes the following statistics, compiled from the books of the commissioner of internal revenue, of the sales of malt liquors in the various states and territories and in the leading cities of the country for the year 189:.', as compared with the six years preceding. The sales in Kansas still continue to decrease. Maine and Ver- mont still have no sales to be recorded. For the first time we are able to obtain figures of the decrease in the Dakotas under the prohibitory law nearly 75 per cent, with a slight reaction In 1892. Iowa, in response to the ferocious attack that has been made upon her prohibitory law, shows an increase.

Our difficulty with Italy, growing out of the massacre of eleven Italians in the jail at New Orleans on the 15th of March, 1891, was dis- cussed in the Daily News Almanac of 1892 (page 35), the record closing with the trans- mission to the secretary of state of the report of the grand jury of New Orleans, which fully investigated the matter. This was on the 19th of May, 1891. Early in 1892 a marked Improvement took place In the attitude of Italy toward the United States, although our government did nothing more than maintain the respectful dignity It had assumed from the first. No notice was taken of the affront offered by Italy to the United States by the recall of Baron Fava.the Italian minister at Washington. Mr. Porter, our minister to Rome, came home on a leave of absence In the summer, but it was distinctly given out that such absence from Italy was not a retaliation for the recall of Baron Fava. The United States left freely open the way of mending the breach between the two countries when Italy should move in that direction. The first step taken by Italy was in October, 1891, when she voluntarily opened her markets to American pork, which had for a long time been excluded from the country. This was followed by a very pleas- ant reference to Italy by President Harrison in his message to congress in December 1891, which, being noted by the Italian premier, Rudini, on the 10th of December, brought out from him in the chamber of deputies a state- ment of confidence that the questions at issue between Italy and the United States would soon be amicably settled. The feeling between the two countries con- tinued to grow more friendly during the year, which resulted in a correspondence between the two governments that has resulted in a complete restoration of the amicable rela- tions that preceded the cause of the trouble. The government of the United States volun- tarily took the initiative in closing the breach, and without committing itself to the recogni- tion of any claim for indemnity, but simply as an act of justice and from motives of comity, placed in the hands of the Marquis Imperial!, the Italian charge d'affaires at Washington, the sum of 125.000 francs, or $25,000, for distribution among the heirs of the three Italians who were killed at New Orleans and were found to be subjects of the Italian CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 1893. government. It is understood the money was taken from the annual appropriation of $80,000 to enable the president to provide for unforeseen emergencies in the diplomatic and consular service, so that it was unnec- essary to call upon congress for a specific ap- propriation. By this action on the part of the United States government the disagreeable complications in the relations of the two gov- ernments were removed and the diplomatic relations between them restored to the ami- cable status existing before the New Orleans tragedy. Minister Porter returned to Rome and a minister from Italy took up his post at Washington. The full text of the corre- spondence on the subject is given below in the following letters: ELAINE'S LETTER. Department of State,. Washington, D. C., April 12, 1892. Sir: I congratulate you that the difficulties existing between the United States and Italy, growing out of the lament- able massacre at New Orleans in March of last year, are about to be terminated. The president, feeling that for such an injury there should be ample indemnity, instructs me to tender you 126,000 francs. The Italian vernment will distribute this sum among e families of the victims. While the injury was not inflicted directly by the United States, the president neverthe- less feels that it is the solemn duty as well as the great pleasure of the national govern- ment to pay a satisfactory indemnity. More- over, the president's instructions carry with them the hope that the transaction of to-day may efface all memory of the unhappy trag- edy; that the old and friendly relations of the United States and Italy maybe restored, and that nothing untoward may ever again occur to disturb their harmonious friendship. I avail myself of this occasion to assure you that your prolonged service at this capital as charge d'affaires has been marked by every quality that renders you grateful and accept- able to the government of the United States, and to renew to you the assurance of my high consideration. JAMES G. ELAINE. To Marquis Imperial!, charge d'affaires of Italy. ITALY'S ANSWER. Washington, D. C., April 12, 1832. His Ex- cellency James G. Elaine, Secretarv of State- Mr. Secretary of State: You were pleased to inform me, by your note of to-day, that the federal government had decided to pay to Italy, by way of indemnity, the sum of ~~ go th francs, to be distributed by the Italian government among the families of the royal subjects who were victims of the massacre which took place March 15, Ib91, in the city of New Orleans. Your excellency also expressed the hope that the decision reached by the president would put an end to the unfortu- nate incident to which the deplorable occur- rence gave rise, and that the friendly rela- tions between the two countries would be firmly established. After having taken note with much pleasure of the language used by the president in his message of December last, and after having fully appreciated the words of regret and cen- sure uttered with so much authority by the chief magistrate of the republic, and likewise the recommendations to congress that were suggested to his lofty wisdom by the unhappy incident, the government of his majesty is now glad to learn that the United States ac- knowledges that it is its solemn duty and at the same time a great pleasure to pay an indemnity to Italy. The king's government does not hesitate to accept the indemnity without prejudice to the judicial steps which it may be proper for the parties to take, and considering the redress obtained sufficient, it sees no reason why the relations between the two governments, which relations should faithfully reflect the sentiments of reciprocal esteem and sym- pathy that animate the two nations, should not again become intimate, cordial and friendly, as they have traditionally been in the past, and as it is to be hoped they will ever be in the future. In bringing the foregoing to your knowl- edge, in virtue of the authorization given me by his excellency, the Marquis di Kudini, president of the council, minister of foreign affairs, in the name of the government of his majesty, the king of Italy, my august sover- eign, I have the honor to declare to your excellency that the diplomatic relations be- tween Italy and the United States are from this moment fully re-established. I hasten, moreover, in obedience to instructions re- ceived, to inform you that, pending the minis- ter's return to this capital, I have taken charge of the royal legation in the capacity of charge d'affaires. Be pleased to accept, etc., IMPERIALI. Both the United States minister, the Hon. A. G. Porter, and the Italian minister, Baron Fava, have returned to their respective posts. The former arrived in Rome May 31, 1892, and the latter in Washington May 15, 1892. MEN OF THE YEAR 189*. Brief sketches of men prominent in 1892. BENJAMIN HARRISON. REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR THE PRESI- DENCY. Benjamin Harrison, twenty-third president of the United States, was born in North Bend, O., Aug. 20, 1833. He is the grandson of Will- iam Henry Harrison, ninth president of the United States. He attended school near Cin- cinnati, and was graduated at Miami univer- sity. He studied law and was admitted to the bar, after which he was appointed crier in the federal court at Cincinnati, which brought him $2 a day during term time. In 1854 he removed to Indianapolis, Ind., in which city he has since resided. He continued the practice of his profession, and in 18t)0 was elected reporter of the Supreme court. Upon the breaking out of the war he recruited the 70th Indiana regiment and became its colonel. He served with distinction for two years, when the war department detailed him for special service in Indiana. In five weeks be com- pleted the work and was given the command of a brigade and transferred to Nashville. After Sherman reached Savannah Gen. Harri- son was ordered to join him, which he did at Goldsboro, N. C., where he remained until the close of the war. He was mustered out of the service in June, 1865, with the rank of brigadier-general. Returning to civil life, Gen. Harrison became a member of the law firm of Porter, Harrison & Fishback. In 18W> he was candidate for governor on the repub- lican side, but was defeated. He was appointed on the Mississippi river commission in 1879. Mr. Harrison was elected United States sena- tor for Indiana in 1880 as the successor of Joseph E. McDonald, and took his seat on March 4, 1881. His term of service expired MEN OF THE YEAR. 61 March 3, 1887. In the republican national convention in June. 1888, there were fourteen candidates voted for on the first ballot, Gen. Harrison receiving 83 votes. On the eighth ballot Gen. Harrison received 544 votes and became the nominee of his party. At the November election following he received the electoral vote of every northern state except Connecticut and New Jersey, 233, defeating Mr. Cleveland, who received lt!3. He was inaug- urated president March 4, 1889. At the re- publican national convention at Minneapolis in 1892 Gen. Harrison was renominated by his WHITELAW REID. REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOB THE VICE-PRESI- DENCY. Whltelaw Reid was born in Xenia, O., in October, 1837. His parents gave him a good education. At 15 he entered the Miami uni- versity at Oxford, Butler county. O., where he was graduated in 185(5. He began the active duties of life as principal of the graded schools in South Charleston, Clark county, in the same state, but did not continue in this occu- pation long. In 1857 he bought the Xenia News, and did such good work on that journal as to give it a reputation wide as the state. This led to his engagement by the Times and Gazette of Cincinnati and the Herald of Cleveland as their Columbus correspondent. The war gave him an opportunity of distin- guishing himself as a correspondent at the front. He served the Cincinnati Gazette in this capacity and in 1862 became a stockholder of that journal, the publication of which he assisted in subsequently in the capacity of as- sociate editor. His connection with the New York Tribune began with his being the editor in charge of its Washington bureau. He ventured upon the publication of a volume in the year 1805. It was entitled "After the War - A Southern Tour," and recorded observa- tions made in company with Chief Justice Chase on an extensive range of travel. Reid published another book in 1868, "Ohio in the War," a work of considerable length and value. He became permanently an editor on the staff of the Tribune in 1870, and when Horace Greeley was a candidate for the pres- idency assumed the position of managing editor. Mr. Reid is a wealthy man. He mar- ried the daughter of D. O. Mills, many times a millionaire, and lives in fine style in an aris- tocratic up-town district in New York. Presi- dent Harrison appointed Mr. Reid minister to France, and he has proved a successful and exceedingly popular diplomate. In the spring of 1892 Mr. Reid returned from France, having resigned his position in Paris. GROVER CLEVELAND. PRESIDENT-ELECT OP THE UNITED STATES. Grover Cleveland, twenty-second president of the United States, was born at Caldwell, N. J., March 18, 1837. His educational oppor- tunities were at that time limited, and when 14 years old he removed with his parents to Fayetteville, N. Y., where he began his career as clerk in a store. Then came an opportu- nity for Grover to attend a local academy, and it was here he received training that later in life led him to adopt the legal profes- sion. Drifting westward, he became a student in a law office at Buffalo, N. Y., and in May, 1859, he was admitted to the bar. His industry and evident ability led to his appointment as assistant district attorney when only 25 years of age. He made such a record while in that office that his name became a synonvm for industry and honesty. Then followed in se- quence of official terms of office his election to the posts of sheriff of Erie county in 1870, mayor of Buffalo in 1881, governor of New York in 1882, president of the United States in 1884. His first Waterloo came in 1888, when, nom inated for a second term at the white house by the St. Louis convention, he was defeated by President Harrison by sixty-five electoral votes. During the earlier part of his admin- istration Mr. Cleveland was wedded to Miss Frances Folsom of Buffalo, N. Y. The story of how the ex-president wooed and won his bride is somewhat romantic. She was the daughter of Cleveland's former law partner. It is said that Miss Folsom became engaged to Mr. Cleveland about the time he began his term as president. He had always held her in fond regard since the -,ime he trotted her on his knee when she was a little girl. He treasured her picture all through the days of his bachelorhood. Frances Folsom Cleveland added vastly to the luster of Grover Cleve- land's administration, endearing herself almost to the extent of being idolized by a large part of the American people. In Octo- ber, 1891, a daughter was born to Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland. A. E. STEVENSON. THE VICE-PRESIDENT-ELECT OP THE UNITED STATES. Mr. Stevenson was born in Christian county, Ky., Oct 28, 1835, but belongs to an old North Carolina family. His father was of Scotch- Irish parentage, and during his residence in Kentucky was a planter. In 1853 the family removed to Bloomington, this state, and there Mr. Stevenson commenced the study of law in the office of R. E. Williams. He was ad- mitted to the bar in 1S58, and soon after went to Metamora, Woodford county. He settled in that place for ten years. From 1861 to 1863 Mr. Stevenson was a master in chancery, and from 1864 to 1868 was state's attorney. In 1868 he returned to Bloomington and formed a law partnership with the Hon. James S. Ewing. He was presidential elector in 1864, and ten years later was nominated for congress from the Bloomington district, at that time con- sidered reliably republican by 3,000 majority. To the surprise of the republicans this majority was decreased 1,285. Again in 1876 Mr. Stevenson received a second nomination, and while the party lines were more tightly drawn in the presidential election he was def3ated by only 250 plurality. Two years later he carried every county- in the district. His own county, that had given Hayes and Garfleld 2,000 majority, gave him a majority. In 1880 at another presidential election Mr. Stevenson was defeated by only 200 votes. In 1882, when the state had been redistricted by the republican legislature and not a doubtful county was supposed to be left in the Bloom- ington district, Mr. Stevenson, who had ac- cepted a renomination, was defeated by only 350 votes. At the following election the old opponent of Mr. Stevenson was elected by 2,700 majority. He was a delegate to the democratic national convention of 1884, and after the election of Grover Cleveland was appointed first assistant postmaster-general. Later he resumed the practice of law in Bloomington. Mr. Stevenson was a delegate to the present convention and chairman of the Illinois delegation. In 1866 Mr. Stevenson was married to Miss Letitia Green, daughter of Dr. Louis Green, president of Center college, Danville, Ky., and an eminent Presbyterian minister. GEN. JAMES B. WEAVER. THE PEOPLE'S PARTY NOMINEE FOR THB PRESIDENCY. James B. Weaver was born in Dayton, O., June 12, 1833. was graduated at the law school CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 1893. of the Ohio university at Cincinnati in 1854. enlisted as a private at the beginning of the war and advanced in rank with a rapidity equaled in very few cases. He was elected first lieutenant of company G of the 2d Iowa infantry, attained the rank of major Oct. 3, 1868, and as both his colonel and lieutenant were killed at the battle of Corinth he was made colonel. Finally he was brevetted briga- dier-general "for gallantry on the field, to date from March 13, 1863." In 1866 he was elected district attorney of the 2d judicial district of Iowa, and in 1867 was appointed assessor of internal revenue for the 5th district of the state, an office he held for six years. He then edited the Iowa Trib- une of Des Moines and was elected as an independent republican to the XLVIth con- gress. Men of his way of thinking, however, were even then organizing a new party, and in 1880 he became the greenbackers' candidate for president. Excluding doubtful and fusion tickets, he received 307,740 votes. He then re- sumed private life and professional duties for a time, but In 1884-6 was re-elected to con- gress. No man in th? Lth congress was better in- formed on parliamentary rules, as he conclu- sively proved by holding the house In a dead- lock for several days on a question regarding the Oklahoma reservation. Even then he was regarded as a sort of stormy petrel in politics, not a straight-out democrat, and cer- tainly not a republican. In his first campaign he scarcely had the backing of any party, and his nomination was, In the politician's phrase, "decidedly irregular," yet he made a cross- roads canvass among the farmers and defeated one of the brainiest republicans in the state. In 184 the republican candidate, Capt. Frank T. Campbell, was a national banker; so the old greenbackers rallied to Gen. Weaver, and in 1886 something else handi- capped the republicans. Seeing him thus vic- torious in a confessedly republican district. the country began to look on Gen. Weaver as a mascot, but in 1888 the republicans suc- ceeded in uniting on a strong man and re- manded the general to private life and peo- ple's party politics. GEN. JAMES FIELD. THE PEOPLE'S PARTT NOMINEE FOB VICE- PRESIDENT. Gen. James Field, the vice-presidential nominee of the people's party, was born in ulpepper county, Virginia, in 1826, and spent his boyhood there. He was educated a lawyer. and became a democrat of "the old-fashioned kind," as he puts It. In 1859 he was appointed ommonwealth attorney for Culpepper ounty. At the opening of the war, in April of 1861, he resigned his position and volun- teered with the Culpepper minute-men. That company became noted for having a rattle- snake for its emblem and "Don't Tread on Me" for its motto. The company marched to Harper's Ferry and assisted in the capture of the federal arsenal. Gen. Field was promoted from the ranks to major in the Virginia forces and subsequently was assigned to a position on the staff of Gen. A. P. HiU. He was in the service from April 7, 1861, to the surrender at Appomattox, and won distinction for his gallantry. He was wounded at the first battle of Cold Harbor in 862 and again at Slaughter's Mountain (an ngagement known in the north as the battle of Cedar Creek) on Aug. 9. 1862. As a result of the latter he lost his right leg below the knee, and now uses an artificial limb and a crutch. He was out of active service until May, 1863. when he rejoined the army at Fredericksburg. He was with the army in the Gettysburg cam- paign, returned with it to Virginia, and was continuously in service till the close of the war. After Lee's surrender Gen. Field resumed the practice of law. In 1877 he was appointed by the governor of Virginia to fill an unex- pired term as attorney-general of the state, and in November of that year he was elected to congress for a full term of four years beginning January 1, 1878. Since 1882 he has been a practicing lawyer and a farmer, resid ing on a considerable estate in Albemarle county. Though never a member of an alliance, a grange or any other industrial organization. Gen. Field has since 1885 proclaimed from the stump throughout Virginia that redress for the grievances of the people could only be had through a reform organization. He held that the influence of the party caucus had grown superior to the will of the constituents of the party and, therefore, unwise legislation could neither be repealed nor prevented; therefore, a new party was a necessity. Gen. Field is a baptist, and has for some time been at the head of the state organization of that church in Virginia. GEN. JOHN BIDWELL. PROHIBITION CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESI- DENCY. John Bidwell was born in Chautauqua county, New Fork, Aug. 5, 1819. In 1829 his parents removed to Erie county. Pa., and in 1831 again removed to Ashtabula county, Ohio, where he was educated at Kingsville academy. During the winter of 1838-9 he taught school in Darke county, and subse- quently for two years in Missouri. In 1841 he emigrated to California, being one of the first to make the journey overland, which, at that time, occupied six months. On the Pacific coast he had charge of Bodega and Fort Russ, and also of Gen Sutler's Feather river pos- sessions. He served in the Mexican war until its close, rising from second lieutenant to major. He was among the first to discover gold on Feather river in 1848. In 1849 he was a member of the state constitutional conven- tion and during the same year became a member of the senate of the new state. He was one of a committee appointed to convey a block of gold-bearing quartz from California to Washington in 1850. In 1860 he was a dele- gate to the famous democratic national con- vention at Charleston. Since then he has been brigadier-general of the state militia. In 1864 he was elected to congress and served from Dec. 4, 1865, to March 3, 18CT. He was a delegate to the national convention of his party in 1866. In 1875 he was candidate for governor of California, but was defeated. J. B. CRANFILL. PROHIBITION NOMINEE FOR THE VICE- PRESIDENCY. Mr. Cranflll was born in Parker county, Texas, in 1857. He was raised on a farm, but studied medicine and became a physician. He started the Gatesville Advance, which he published until 1886. In August of that year he called the first prohibition party conven- tion ever held in Texas. In December, 1886, Dr. Cranflll moved to Waco. Soon thereafter the great campaign for constitutional prohibition began in Texas, and Dr. Cranflll took a position at once as the leading journalist on that side of the issue and his paper was regarded as the principal exponent or the amendment in Texas. The amendment having failed. Dr. Cranfill sold his paper in 1888 and began work as financial secretary of Baylor university at Waco. In MEN OF THE YEAR. October, 1889, he was elected to the superin- tendency of baptist mission work In Texas, and this placed him at the head and front of this great denomination in his native state. Under his administration the mission work of the state was doubled, and he has the distinc- tion of having been the leader of the largest state mission work ever done tn the history of the United States. In January. 1890, Dr. Cranflll was ordained as a baptist preacher by the First Baptist church at Waco. In March, 1892, he resigned his position as super- intendent of missions to take charge with the Rev. M. V. Smith. D. D., of the Texas Baptist Standard, which is the leading baptist news- paper in Texas. This position he at present fills. GEORGE SHIRAS, JR. JUSTICE OF THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT. George Shiras, jr., Is 60 years old. He was born in Pittsburg, Pa., In 1832. descends from a well-known pioneer family and is a cousin of ex-Secretary Blaine. His father was a brewer and owned a brewery at the Point. It is a landmark and still stands. In 1840 the elder Shiras retired from business, having amassed a comfortable fortune. He turned his attention to the education of his children. Early in life the future Supreme court justice showed that he was possessed of an unusual order of Intellect. His mother was a daughter of Dr. Francis E. Herron, the first pastor of the First Presbyterian church . Mr. Shiras is a graduate of Yale, of the class of 1853, taking the Greek prize. He was a classmate of Chauncey M. Depew and Presi- dent White of Cornell. He returned to Pitts- burg and began to read law with Judge Hopewell Hepburn of the District court. Judge Hepburn was considered one of the legal lights of his time. After becoming a member of the bar young Shiras went into partnership with Judge Hepburn for a few years. About 1860 Mr. Shiras, who had acquired considerable prestige as a lawyer by that time, started out for himself. His career since has been an almost unbroken series of legal triumphs. He has figured in dozens of cases that have been recorded as precedents. His practice has been along many lines, and he has frequently argued in the court to which he has been called. Mr. Shiras has been engaged in much im- portant litigation. In the case of Hartupee vs. the City of Pittsburg Mr. Shiras repre- sented the city. A late case in which Mr. yhiras was engaged was that of the Junction railroad, in which the Supreme court affirmed that railroad's right to c: oss the tracks of the Allegheny Valley railroad at 43d street. Mr. Shiras acted as counsel for the Monongahela Navigation company in its case against the government which asked for the condemna- tion of lock No. 7. In the riot case of 1877 of Gibson against Allegheny county for indem- nity on goods destroyed during the riot Mr. Shiras was one of the counsel for the county. Mr. Shiras is the forty-sixth citizen ap- pointed to the associate justiceship of the Supreme court of the United States since its organization in 1789. In that time there have been eight chief justices. The first appoint- ment to the bench from Pennsylvania was James Wilson, the second Henry Baldwin of Pittsburg, the third Robert Cooper Grier, the fourth W. Strong, and Mr. Shiras is the fifth from Pennsylvania. ANDREW D. WHITE. UNITED STATES MINISTER TO ST. PETERS- BURG, RUSSIA. Andrew Dlckson White, sclwlar, educator, philanthropist, publicist and diplomatist, is a native of New York state, having been born in Homer, Cortland county, Nov. 7. 1832. When 7 years of age he removed with his family to Syracuse, where his boyhood and youth were passed. His father was an enter- prising business man, a banker and railroad operator. In 1849 young Andrew entered Hobart college at Geneva, remained one year and then entered the class of 1853 at Yale, which numbered among its members Edmund Clarence Stedman, George W. Smalley and Isaac H. Bromley. Upon the completion of his college course he went abroad to study, remaining nearly three years in the College of France and the University of Berlin. He was for several months an attache of the United States legation at St. Petersburg during the period embracing the most stirring events of the Crimean war. He returned to America in 1856, and the following year became professor of history and English literature in the Uni- versity of Michigan. In 1861 he resigned the professorship and went abroad for health and study, remaining two years. In 1863 Mr. White was elected a state senator from the district comprising the counties of Onondaga and Cortland, N. Y. In 1865 he was re-elected. It was while in the senate in 1864 that he met Ezra Cornell. The latter was wealthy and determined to found a college "where any man could be educated in any study" at Ithaca, N. Y. Mr. White aided him in obtaining a state charter for the college and then a United States land grant of 990,000 acres for its endowment. Mr. White was elected the first president of the university, and sketched the plans upon which it was founded. He gave all his strength, mental and physical, to the school for many years. After twenty years of service as president of Cornell, Mr. White resigned in 1885. He is still identified, however, with the university as a trustee. During the last fifteen years of his term as president of the college he found time in which to serve his country in diplo- matic labors. In 1871 he was one of the United States commissioners to Santo Domingo. The same year he was also chairman of the republican state convention. In 1879 he was appointed minister to Germany by President Grant. He was held in esteem by the German government at Berlin and was a man of influ- ence. He was a delegate-at-large to the national republican conventions of 1872, 1876 and 1884. Last September he was prominently mentioned for governor before the New York convention which nominated J. Sloat Fassett. GEN. EUGENE A. CARR. THE NE\V% BRIGADIER-GENERAL OF THE ARMY. Gen. Carr was born March 20, 1830, in Erie county, New York. He was appointed as a cadet at the military academy in September, 1846. He- was commissioned in the regular service as second lieutenant June 30,1851; as first lieutenant of cavalry March 3. 1S55; as captain 4th cavalry June 11, 1858; as major 5th cavalry July 17. 1862; as lieutenant-colonel 4th cavalry Jan. 7, 1873, and as colonel 6th cavalry April 29, 1879. During the war Gen. Carr re- ceived the following brevets in the regular service: That of lieutenant-colonel Aug. 10, 1861, for gallant and meritorious service in the battle of Wilson Creek, Mo.; that of colonel May 18, 1863, for gallant and meritorious serv- ice in the action of the Black River Bridge, Miss.; that of brigadier-general March 13, 1865, for gallant and meritorious service in the capture of Little Rock, Ark., and that of major-general March 13, 1865, for gallant and meritorious service during the war. The CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 18i>3. record of Gen. Carr has been a long, faithful and active one, and from its beginning, with two expeditions to the Rocky mountains in 1852-8, through several Indian engagements in 1800, down to and including the war of the rebellion, his services as an officer of the army have been of the highest order. During the war of the rebellion Gen. Carr partici- pated in many of the battles of the union army, and displayed daring, coolness and judgment which won for him the praise of his senior officers and the gratitude of the people of the north. Since the war Gen. Carr has led several suc- cessful expeditions against the Indians in the southwest and northwest, For these opera- tions he received joint resolutions of thanks from the legislatures of Nebraska and Colo- rado. He served in the regular army in Ari- zona several years and in the northwest un- der Gen. Merntt in 1876. During the railway riot in Chicago in 1877 he commanded a cav- alry battalion. In the fall of 1879 he was pro- moted to the colonelcy of the 6th cavalry, then stationed in New Mexico. The 6th cav- alry is now stationed at Fort Niobrara. Up to date Gen. Carr has held twenty-nine commands ranking higher than his command at the time. He was four times wounded and participated in thirty-eight battles, of which sixteen were with Indians and fourteen since the close of the rebellion. When the Sioux outbreak of February, 1891, occurred Gen. Carr and his regiment were stationed at San Francisco, but such was his record as an Indian fighter that as soon as the outbreak assumed importance he was ordered to the scene with his men, and to him was largely due the favorable termination of the outbreak. AUGUSTUS G. WEISSERT. COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OP THE GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC. Augustus Gordon Weissert was born at Can- ton, O., Aug. 17, 1844. He attended the schools at Racine, Wis., the state of his adoption. Graduating from the Racine high school he entered the University of Michigan. He was distinguished in his studies and bore off the degree of LL. D. He was admitted to prac- tice in Wisconsin, and was winning fame at the Milwaukee bar when the war broke out. As soon as the tocsin sounded he enlisted in the 8th Wisconsin infantry, the " Live-Eagle " regiment of history, and shared its fortunes till the battle of Nashville. There he was grievously wounded, receiving a bullet just over the knee, which he still carries. Conva- lescing sufficiently to rejoin his regiment, he did so on crutches. After four years' gallant service he was brevetted captain from the date of the battle of Lake Chicol, Ark., June 6, 1864, for meritorious service in that fight and at the battle of Nashville on Dec. 15 following, and for extraordinary bravery throughout the Red river expedition. He refused the tender of a West Point cadetship by reason of his wound. He joined the Grand Army of the Re- public at Madison, Wis., in 1866, and has filled creditably every position from comrade and officer of the day up to department com- mander. He has since been called upon to ad- minister the office of commander-in-chief . He was chairman of the executive council of the citizens' committee that made the twenty- third national encampment at Milwaukee a success. At the Detroit encampment he re- ceived the second highest number of votes for the office to which he has been elected. In the capacity of senior vice-commander he visited all the departments of the east in company with Commander-in-Chief R. A. Palmer. Just now he is a member of E. B. Wolcott post of Milwaukee. ABRAHAM J. SEAT. GOVERNOR OF OKLAHOMA TERRITORY. The appointment of Judge Abraham Jeffer- son Seay as governor of Oklahoma territory gives general satisfaction, and he has been congratulated heartily by men of all parties, who have long admired him for his energy and probity of character. Gov. Seay was born in Amherst county, Virginia, Nov. 28, 1832. When he was 3 years old his parents moved to Osage county, Missouri. His early education was very limited, and when he reached the age of 21 he could scarcely more than read and write. He started out with a determination to win, however, and surely he has succeeded. Working by the day he earned sufficient money to pay nis way through the Steeleville (Mo.) academy, and then studied law in the same town, paying his way by his own exertions. He was admitted to the bar three days before the firing on Fort Sumter, and, though most of his people sided with the confederacy, he soon enlisted in the union army and marched away for four years of hard work and fighting. He entered as a pri- vate, but in August, 1864, he was mustered out a colonel of the 32d infantry, Missouri volun- teers. He then began the practice of law at Steeleville, and in the course of time was county attorney, circuit attorney and circuit judge, sitting on the bench in the latter capacity twelve years. All the time he was an active republican, on the stump in every cam- paign, and twice ran for congress against Richard Bland, the great silver champion. In May, 1890, he was appointed associate justice of the Supreme court of Oklahoma, and until appointed governor filled that position with honor to himself and satisfaction to the peo- ple of the territory. BISHOP W. PERKINS. UNITED STATES SENATOR FROM KANSAS. Bishop W. Perkins was born at Rochester, O., Oct. 18, 1832. He was educated in the public schools and at Knox college, Galesburg, 111. After leaving college he went to Colorado, and on his return in 1862 enlisted in company D, 83d Illinois volunteer infantry. He served as sergeant and lieutenant, and in December, 1863, was appointed adjutant of the 16th Colo- rado infantry. Later he was assigned to duty as captain of company C of the same regi- ment. He served as judge-advocate on the staff of Gen. Gillem, and also in the same position on the staff of Gen. Steadman; was mustered out at Nashville in May, 1866; re- turned to Illinois, and resumed the study of law, reading with O. C. Gray at Ottawa. After being admitted to the bar in 1867 he located at Pierceton, Ind., wheie he remained until he went to Oswego, Kas., in April, 1869. The same year he was appointed county attorney and the following year probate judge, which office he held till Feb. 1, 1873, when he was elected judge of the llth judicial district. He was re-elected in 1874 and 1878. and in November, 1882, was elected a member of congress. He was appointed United States senator Jan. 1, 1892, to succeed Preston B. Plumb, deceased. Mr. Perkins is a republican, sincere in his convictions and aggressive in his expressions. He was a delegate to the Chicago convention i n 1880. He was elected member of congress from the 3d district, and was re-elected for three successive terms, but met defeat a year ago at the hands of the Farmers' alliance. He was editor and proprietor of the Oswego Register from 1871 until appointed district judge in 1873. THE BERING SEA DISPUTE. THE BERING SEA DISPUTE. Our account of the differences in connec- tion with the seal fisheries between the United States and Great Britain in the Daily News Almanac for 1892 (page 44) closed with the agreement between the two countries for the appointment of a joint high commis- sion which should settle finally the matter in dispute. Considerable delay took place in the sign- ing of the treaty for a joint commission, and it was not until Feb. 29, 1892, that it was for- mally signed, but it was not ratified by the United States senate until a month later. The number of arbitrators was increased from five to seven. The joint commission spent several months in Bering sea gathering all the infor- mation possible to bear on the proposed arbi- tration. It was expected that the four com- missioners would be able to f ormul ate a joint report that would be accepted by the board of arbitration as an ultimate criterion of all points raised regarding the seal industry. The report of the commission was not satis- factory, and no agreement between the two countries was arrived at. It was shown, how- ever, that since Alaska came into the posses- sion of the United States the number of seals had gradually diminished, and this decrease was shown to be due to the destruction of the animals by sealers. There was a disagree- ment as to the source of this destruction, the United States commissioners charging it to the deep-sea killing carried on by Canadian sealers, while the British representatives at- tributed it to the killing of seals permitted under contract by the United States treasury. A new difficulty now arose, for it was ap- parent that whatever might be the result reached by the commissioners or arbitrators it could not be reached in time to be operative during the sealing season which was ap- proaching. Steps were at once taken by the United States to secure a continuance or the modus vivendi, which would expire on the 1st of May, 1892. To protect our own rights the president issued on the 19th of February. 1892. a proclamation warning all persons of their liability to arrest and punishment if they should be found sealing in Bering sea in viola- tion of the laws of the United States. The British government opposed the re- newal of the modus vivendi as requested by the United States. Lord Salisbury based his refusal upon the rep9rt of the British com- missioners that sealing in the open sea would not endanger the destruction of the species, and he objected to another year's suspension of the industry which was impor- tant to Canada. Lord Salisbury, however, proposed that sealing should be prohibited within thirty miles of the Pribilof islands and that the catch by Americans in those islands should be limited to 30 000 seals. On the 29th of February, 1893, a treaty was signed in Wash- ington by Mr. Elaine on the part of the United States and Sir Julian Pauncefote on the part of Great Britain, by which the whole contro- versy was relegated to an international arbi- tration commission to be composed of seven members. On the 8th of March the treaty was sent to the senate for ratification, but the president and his cabinet decided to main- tain its demand for a renewal of the modus vivendi. The points to be submitted to arbi- tration were set out in the sixth article of the treaty as follows: 1. What exclusive jurisdiction in the sea known as the Bering sea. and what exclusive rights in the seal fisheries therein did Russia assert and exercise prior and up to the time of the cession of Alaska to the United States? 2. How far were these claims of jurisdiction as to the seal fisheries recognized and con- ceded by Great Britain? 3. Was the body of water now known as Bering sea included in the phrase "Pacific ocean" as used in the treaty of 1825 between Great Britain and Russia, and what rights, if any, in Bering sea were held and exclusively exercised by Russia after said treaty? 4. Did not all the rights of Russia as to juris- diction and as to the seal fisheries in Bering sea east of the water boundary, in the treaty between the United States and Russia of the 30th of March, 18CT, j>ass unimpaired to the United States under that treaty? 5. Has the United States any right, and if so what right, of protection of property in the fur seals frequenting the islands of the United States in Bering sea when such seals are found outside the ordinary three-mile limit? These points were to be decided by seven arbitrators, two to be named by the president, two by the queen, one by the presi- dent of the French republic and one each by the king of Italy and the king of Sweden and were to meet in Paris. The treaty did not touch the question of damages for illegal sealing on the one hand or for illegal seizure of vessels on the other. This, however, was settled by an agreement between Mr. Blaine and Lord Salisbury under which the claims for damages followed the award of the commission. No answer had been returned to our demand for a renewal of the modus vivendi of March 8 and on the Kith Lord Salisbury's attention was again called to the subject. On the 19th of March Lord Salisbury replied, declining to renew the modus vivendi for various reasons. The president on the 22d of March replied very vigorously to Lord Salisbury and declared that the United States should insist upon the right to prevent deep-sea sealing as a matter of "honor and self-respect." He further said : "If her majesty's government proceeds during the sealing season upon the basis of its con- tention as to the rights of the Canadian seal- ers no choice is left this government but to proceed upon the basis of its confident con- tention that pelagic sealing in Bering sea is an infraction of its jurisdiction and property rights." For a time it looked as if the differ- ences between the United States and Great Britain would become serious and it was not until Lord Salisbury's reply to the president's note of the 22d, which was received on the 26th, that matters assumed a more pacific ap- pearance. In this note Lord Salisbury ex- pressed a willingness to agree to a renewal of the modus vivendi on the condition that the nation which was defeated in the arbitration should pay to the other such damages as might be assessed by the commission as a result of a suspension of sealing. The ques- tion of damages was settled to the satisfac- tion of both governments and on the 18th of April Secretary Blaine and Sir Julian Paunce- fote concluded a new modus vivendi provid- ing for a close season, as did that of 1891, but including the agreements as to damages, and it was sent to the senate April 19, 1892. Briefly stated, these articles prohibit the British and Americans from seal-killing in Bering sea and islands, save 7.000 seals to be taken on the islands for the subsistence of the natives during the arbitration, provide for the seizure of offending vessels and per- mit the residence of British agents on the islands during the season. Articles 3 and f> read as follows: "Article 3. If the result of the arbitration be to affirm the right of British sealers to take seals in Bering sea within the bounds CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR claimed by the United States under its pur- chase from Russia, then compensation shall be made by the United States to Great Britain for th'j use of her subjects for abstaining from the exercise of that right during the pendency of the arbitration upon the basis of uch a regulated and limited catch or catches as in the opinion of the arbitrators might have been taken without an undue diminu- tion of the seal herds, and on the other hand, f the result of the arbitration shall be to deny the right of British sealers to take seals within the said waters, then compensation shall be made by Great Britain to the United States (for itself, its c!tizens and lessees) for this agreement, to limit the island catch to 7,500 seals upon the basis of the difference between their number and such larger catch as in the opinion of the arbitrators might have been taken without an undue diminu- tion of the seal herd. The amount awarded, f any, in either case shall be such as, under all the circumstances, is just and equitable and shall be promptly paid. "Article 6. This convention may be re- nounced by either of the high contracting parties at any time after the 31st day of October, 1893, on giving to the parties two months' notice of its termination and at the expiration of this notice the convention shall cease to be in force." The seventh and last article simply provides for the exchange of ratifications as early as possible. The ratification of the treaty of arbitration and the modus Vivendi were exchanged in London May 7. Of the seven arbitrators mentioned in the treaty six have already been chosen. The United States arbitrators are Justice John M. Harlan of the United States Supreme court and Senator John T. Morgan of Alabama. The British arbitrators are Lord Hannen and Sir John S. D. Thompson, Canadian minister ofjustlce. The counsel of the United States consists of Edward J. Phelps of Vermont, ex-minister to Great Britain, and Judge Henry W. Blodgett of Chicago. The British government will be represented by Mr. C. Robinson of Toronto, Canada, and Sir W. H. Cross, member of the British parliament. France selected as arbi- trator Senator Baron de Courcelles and Italy Marquis Visconti Venosta. THE DIFFICULTY WITH CHILE. A very grave trouble, that at one time .hreatened war between the United States and Chile, was settled during the last year with great credit to our own government. During the Chilean rebellion the insurgents conceived a great dislike of the United states for the supposed complicity of Mr. Egan, the United States minister at Valparaiso, with Balmaceda, the president of Chile. The defeat of the president and his subsequent suicide intensified the dislike of the successful .nsurgents against the United States. The United States man-of-war Baltimore was dis- patched to Valparaiso to protect American interests in that country. The Baltimore was therefore in the harbor at Valparaiso by virtue of that general Invitation which nations are held to extend to the war vessels of other powers with which they have friendly relations. The vessel reached the harbor of Valparaiso Sept. 14, 1891, and the city officials extended the hospitalities of the city to its officers and crew, as is customary. The inci- dents that led to the difficulty are given in detail in the message of the president to con- gress Jan. 26, 1892, as follows: "On the 16th of October last Capt. Schley, commanding the United States steamship Baltimore, gave shore leave to 117 petty officers and sailors of his ship. These men left the ship about 1:30 p. m. No incident of violence occurred; none of our men was arrested; no complaint was lodged against them; nor did any collision or outbreak occur until about 6 o'clock p. m. Capt. Schley states that he was himself on shore and about the streets of the city until 5:30 p. m.; that he met very many of his men who were on leave; that they were sober and were conducting themselves with propriety, saluting Chilean and other officers as they met them. Other officers of the ship and Capt. Jenkins of the merchant ship Keweenaw corroborate Capt. Schley as to the general sobriety and good behavior of our men. The sisters of charity at the hospital to which our wounded men were taken, when inquired of, stated that they were sober when received. If the situa- tion had been otherwise we must believe that the Chilean police authorities would have made arrests. "About 6 p. m. the assault began, and it Is remarkable that the investigation by the judge of crimes, though so protracted, does not enable him to give any more satisfactory account of its origin than is found in the statement that it began between drunken sailors. Repeatedly in the correspondence it is asserted that it was impossible to learn the precise cause of the riot. The minister of for- eign affairs, Matta, in his telegram to Mr. Montt, under date Dec. 31, states that the quarrel began between two sailors in a tavern and was continued in the street, persons who were passing joining in it. The testimony of Talbot, an apprentice who was with Riggin, is that the outbreak in which they were involved began by a Chilean sailor spitting in the face of Talbot, which was resented by a knock- down. It appears that Riggin and Talbot were at the time unaccompanied by any oth- ers of their shipmates. "These two men were immediately beset by a crowd of Chilean citizens and sailors, through which they broke their way to a street car and entered It for safety. They were pursued, driven from the car, and Riggin was so seri- ously beaten that he fell in the street ap- parently dead. "There is nothing in the report of the Chilean investigation made to us that seriously im- peaches this testimony. It appears from Chil- ean sources that almost instantly, with a sud- denness that strongly implies premeditation and preparation, a mob, stated by the police authorities at one time to number 2,000 and at another 1,000, was engaged in the assault upon our sailors, who are represented as resisting 'with stones, clubs, and bright arms.' The report of the intendente of Oct. 30 states that the fight began at 6 p. m. in three streets, which are named, that information was re- ceived at the intendencia at 6:15, and that the police arrived on the scene at 6:30, a full half hour after the assault began. At that time, he says, a mob of 2.000 men had collected and that for several squares there was the appear- ance of ' a real battlefield.' "The scene at this point is very graphically set before us by the Chilean testimony. The American sailors, who, after so long an ex- amination, have not been found guilty of any breach of the peace so far as the Chilean authorities are able to discover, unarmed and defenseless, are fleeing for their lives, pursued by overwhelming numbers and fighting only THE DIFFICULTY WITH CHILE. to aid their own escape from death or to succor some mate whose life is in greater peril. Eighteen of them are brutally stabbed and beaten, while one Chilean seems, from the report, to have suffered some injury; but how serious or with what character of weapon, or whether by a missile thrown by our men or by some of his fellow-rioters, is unascer- tained." In the Chilean investigation that followed that government made the most strenuous efforts to show that the difficulty was brought on by the sailors, but the great preponderance of evidence shows that the assault was com- mitted by an excited mob of Chileans actuated solely and only by a hatred of the uniforms the men wore and of the flag under which they served. The judicial inquiry in Chile terminated Jan. 8, 1892, having been instituted Oct. 17, 1891. It was presided over by Judge Henry Foster of the Criminal court of Valparaiso. This court reported: "1. That the incident origi- nated in a brawl between intoxicated sailors of both nations. The riot grew in proportions on account of the special ward in which it occurred, full of houses of bad reputation and sailors. 2. The policemen from the first moment did all they were expected to do to suppress the riot. The correct course of the police has been acknowledged by every one of the witnesses and of the American sailors, except two. 3. Only one isolated shot was fired. It was from a revolver. The police are armed with carbines." There is a wide difference between the find- ings of the Chilean court and the result of the inquiry by the officers of the Baltimore. The report or the medical officer of the vessel states that Riggin was killed by a rifle ball, and there was abundant evidence to prove that the attack was premeditated and that the sailors were assaulted in six different places at about the same time. Capt. Schley states that in an interview with Judge Foster soon after the riot the latter said that the riot was caused by the hatred that the lower class of Chileans had for Americans because of the belief that the Americans had aided or sympathized with Balmaceda through the Chilean struggle. Chile made no offer to apologize for the un- justifiable affront to the dignity of the United states, but after three months of delay made the claim that the chain of legal formalities was not yet complete, but that other links still remained in the shape of a trial before the judge of crimes on the indictments of some men who had been arrested for the riot. President Harrison therefore decided that the time had come when further delay in a reparation on the part of Chile could not be permitted. Such was the condition when con- gress convened. The publication in Chile of that part of his message to congress that bore on this matter aroused considerable resent- ment in Chile, and on Dec. 1 1, 1891, the then min- ister of foreign affairs. Senor Manuel Matta, not only stated that the American minister and consul at Valparaiso had concealed testi- mony which might have cleared up the matter, but he also addressed a circular to the Chilean legations in the United States and Europe accusing the American minister and the American naval officers of making reports to Washington that were deliberately false and of engaging in intrigues for creating trouble between the two countries. THE MATTA CIRCULAR. The premier's circular was as follows : "Having read the portion of the report of the secretary of the navy and of the message of the president of the United States I think proper to inform you that the statements on which both report and message are based are erroneous or deliberately incorrect. With re- spect to the persons to whom an asylum has been granted, they have never been threat- ened with cruel treatment, nor has it been sought to remove them from the legation, nor has their surrender been asked for. Never has the house or the person of the plenipoten- tiary, notwithstanding indiscretions and de- liberate provocations, been subjected to any offense, as is proved by the eleven notes of September, October and'November. "With respect to the seamen of the Balti- more there is, moreover, no exactness or sin- cerity in what is said at Washington. The occurrence took place in a bad neighborhood of the city, the maintop of Valparaiso, add among people who are not models of distire- tion and temperance. When the police and other forces interfered and calmed the tumult there were already several hundred people there and it was ten squares or more from the place where it had begun. "Mr. Egan sent, on the 26th of October, a note that was aggressive in purpose and viru- lent in language, as is seen by the copy and the note written in reply on the 27th. "On the 18th the preliminary examination had already been commenced; it had been de- layed owingto the non-appearance of the offi- cers of the Baltimore and owing to undue pre- tensions and refusals of Mr. Egan himself. No provocation has ever been accefted or in- itiated by this department. Its attitude, while it has ever been one of firmness and prudence, has never been one of aggressiveness, nor will it ever be one of humiliation, whatever may be or has been said at Washington by those who are interested in justifying their conduct or who are blinded by erroneous views. "The telegrams, notes and letters which have been sent to yott contain the truth, the whole truth, in connection with what has taken place in these matters, in which ill-W!ll and the consequent words and pretensions have not emanated from this department. Mr. Tracy and Jlr. Harftson have beeti led into error in respect to our people and goTern- ment; the instructions (recommending) impar- tiality and friendship have not been complied with, either now or before. If no -official complaint has baen made against the minister and the naval officers it is because the facts, public and notorious both in Chile and the United States, could not, although they were well proved, be urged by our confidential agents. Proof of tbis is furnished by the de- mands of Balmaceda and the concessions made in June and July, the whole Itata case, the San Francisco at Quintero and the cabfe companies. The statement that the North American seamen were attacked in various localities at the same time is deliberately in- correct. "As the preliminary examination is not yet concluded it is not yet known who and how many the guilty parties are. You no doubt have the note of Nov.!), written in reply to Min- ister Egan, in which 1 request him to furnish testimony which he would not give, although he had said that he had evidence showing who the murderer was and who the other guilty parties of the 16th of October were. That and all other notes will be published here. You will publish a translation of them in the United States. Deny In the meantime every- thing that does not agree with these state- ments, being assured of their exactness, as we are of the right, the dignity, and the final suc- cess of Chile, notwithstanding the intrigues which proceed from so low (a source) and the threats which come from so hiurg Transit company, which had built ele- vators and followed the modern methods in he grain trade at Ogdensburg. a town farther lown on the St. Lawrence river, entered the leld as a competitor in the Montreal grain ,rade. From the first shippers took most dndly to Ogdensburg as the place of transfer, t enabled them to have their boats unloaded juickly, and the grain -was held in elevators until the ocean steamer which was to take it Tom Montreal was about ready to receive it. Lake vessels made the run of sixty miles Irom Kingston to Ogdenshurg without extra charge owing to the rapidity with which they could be unloaded at the latter point. St. Lawrence river barges, which were compelled to pass Ogdensburg on their way to Kingston, saved a tow of 120 miles by stopping at Ogdensburg and taking their grain from there. The charges by the new route were made the same as from Kingston. During 1890 450,414 bushels of corn and 25,000 bushels of oats were sent abroad over the St. Lawrence river route which was transferred at Ogdensburg. The Canadian government at the beginning of the trade by Ogdensburg allowed that city the same ad- vantages as it had been giving Kingston. On the grain which was bound for export by the way of Montreal a rebate of 18 cents of the 29 cents per ton canal tolls levied at the Welland canal was allowed and a "let-pass" was issued permitting the grain to go through all the lower Canadian canals to Montreal without further toll. The initial season of the Ogdensburg route indicated plainly that Kingston would soon lose her grain trade. At this juncture the Canadian elections came on. Sir John Mac- donald's home borough was Kingston. He pledged his constituents, if they gave him their votes, so to manipulate canal tolls that Kingston would no longer fear the deadly competition of the American port of Ogdens- burg. He kept his promise, and an order in council was issued in the spring of 1891 that canal tolls would no longer be rebated on the grain trans-shipped from lake vessels to river barges unless at a Canadian port. This mani- fest discrimination against Americans in the use of Canadian canals on the same terms as all other nations has never been explained. It was a high-handed act taken by the Domin- ion cabinet because it was thought that the American city of Ogdensburg could not help herself. Kingston did not make a move to in- troduce modern methods in the handling of her grain trade. She relied solely upon the puissance of Sir John Macdonald, whom she had returned to parliament and to power. The Ogdensburg people did not give up the struggle. Shippers were anxious to send their grain by that route, and with the belief that the American government would come to their aid they kept on in the Montreal grain trade during the spring of 1891. The full Wel- land canal tolls were paid by the Ogdensburg people and the St. Lawrence river canal tolls were also paid on this grain. It was hoped that the American government would make a stand against the discrimination and that the tolls would be finally rebated. When Septem- ber came and not a move had been made, the Ogdensburg people gave up the contest. Up to that time in 1891 they had handled from Chicago 321,495 bushels of corn and 206.418 bushels of wheat. This business had been done at a heavy loss. It was nearly six months after Ogdensburg had retired from the Montreal grain trade that President Harrison finally saw the dis- crimination of which the Canadians were guilty. Then came his message to congress advising retaliation on Canadian commerce passing through the American canal at Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., and Senator Davis' bill put- ting retaliatory measures into effect. The retaliation was a body blow to the Can- adians. If they insist upon continuing the or- der in council which has driven Ogdensburg from the grain trade, the losses of the Cana- dian marine will be beyond computation. The great bulk of the wheat raised in Manitor>a find* its way to Lake Superior ports and is from there shipped by wat^r to the lower lakes. A heavy toll at Sault Ste. Marie will drive all this grain to American ports and it ill then be shipped in American vessels in bond throu-rh t!ie United Stnt s. Tho Cana- 70 CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 1893. Jian Pacific operates a line of passenger steamers between Owen sound and Georgian Day and Port Arthur, its port on Lake Supe- rior. The Grand Trunk has lines of steamers mnning from Surma to Lake Superior. Nine- -enthsof all the business done by Canadian ressels either originates on Lake Superior or s freight sent to Lake Superior ports. Every one of the craft engaged in the traffic must pass through the American canal at Sault Ste. Marie. A prohibitory toll, such as the presi- dent is empowered to levy, will drive the Can- adian vessels out of business altogether. Even a moderate toll, with the keen competi- tion now existing in the carrying trade, will give traffic to American vessels. IMPORTANT LEGISLATION. While a large number of bills were intro- luced into the ffrst session of the Llld con- jress that convened in December, 1891, few of much importance were passed. This vas, in part, owing to the fact that while the louse of representatives was strongly demo- cratic the senate was republican and each jrevented the other from passing measures of i radical nature. The following were the nost notable measures passed: TO ENCOURAGE AMERICAN SHIPPING. This bill authorized and directed the secre- ary of the treasury to grant registers, as ves- iels of the United States, to such foreign-built teamships now engaged in freight and pas- lenger business and sailing in an established ine from a port in the United States, as are >f a tonnage of not less than 8,000 tons and capable of a speed of not less than twenty mots per hour, according to the existing nethod of government test for speed, of vhich not less than 90 per centum of the hares of the capital of the foreign corpora- ion or association owning the same was >wned Jan. 1, 1890, and has continued to be >wned until the passage of this act by citizens if the United States, including as such citi- ens corporations created under the laws of my of the states thereof, upon the American iwners of such majority interest obtaining a ull and complete transfer and title to such teamships from the foreign corporations wning the same : Provided, That such Amer- can owners shall, subsequent to the date of ,his law, have built, or have contracted to juild, in American shipyards, steamships of in aggregate tonnage of not less in amount ban that of the steamships so admitted to egistry. Each steamship so built or con- racted for to be of a tonnage of not less than ,000 tons. Sec. 2. That the secretary of the treasury, n being satisfied that such steamships so ac- quired by American citizens, or by such corpor- tion or corporations as above set forth, are uch as come within the provisions of this act, and that the American owners of such steamships, for which an American registry s to be granted under the provisions hereof, have built or contracted to build in American shipyards steamships of an aggregate tonnage as set forth in the first section hereof, shall di- rect the bills of sale or transfer of the foreign- auilt steamships so acquired to be recorded in the office of the collector of customs of the proper collection district, and cause such steamships to be registered as vessels of the United States by said collector. After which each of such vessels shall be entitled to all the fights and privileges of a vessel of the United States, except that it shall not be employed in the coastwise trade of the United States. Sec. 3. That no further or other inspection shall be required for the said steamship or steamships than is now required for for- eign steamships carrying passengers under the existing laws of the United States, and that a special certificate of inspection may be issued for each steamship registered under this act; and that before issuing the registry to any such steamship as a vessel of the United States the collector of customs of the proper collection district shall cause such steamships to be measured and described in accordance with the laws of the United States, which measurement and description shall be recited in the certificate of registry to be is- sued under this act. Sec. 4. That any steamships so registered under the provisions of this act may be taken and used by the United States as cruisers or transports upon payment to the owners of the fair actual value of the same at the time of the taking, and if there shall be a disagreement as to the fair actual value at the time of taking be- tween the United States and the owners, then the same shall be determined by two impartial appraisers, one to be appointed by each of the said parties, who, in case of disagreement, shall select a third, the award of any two of the three so chosen to be final and conclusive.

[Approved May 5, 1892.] CANADIAN RETALIATION. This act provides that, with a view of secur- ing reciprocal advantages for the citizens, ports and vessels of the United States, on and after the 1st day of August, 1892, whenever and so often as the president shall be satisfied that the passage through any canal or lock con- nected with the navigation of the St. Law- rence river, the great lakes or the waterways connecting the same, of any vessels of the United States or of cargoes or passengers in transit to any port of the United States, is pro- hibited or is made difficult or burdensome by the imposition of tolls or otherwise which, in view of the free passage through the St. Mary's Falls canal, now permitted to vessels of all nations, he shall deem to be reciprocally un- just and unreasonable, he shall have the power, and it shall be his duty, to suspend, by proclamation to that effect, for such time and to such extent (including absolute prohibition) as he shall deem just, the right of free passage through the St. Mary's Falls canal, so far as it relates to vessels owned by the subjects of the government so discriminating against the citizens, ports or vessels of the United States or to any cargoes, portions of cargoes or passen- gers in transit to the ports of the government making such discrimination, whether carried in vessels of the United States or of othor nations.

THE PRICE OF SILVER IN PENCE AND FRACTIONS. [From Gold and Silver, by John S. Hanson.] The price of silver is made in London and is quoted for an ounce of silver, English stand- ard, which is .925 fine and contains 444 grains of pure silver. The American standard ounce is .900 fine and contains 432 grains of pure silver. The "fine" ounce is, of course, 1000 fine and contains 48U grains of pure silver. The American silver dollar is 412}^ grains standard, or 371J4 grains pure, and the dollar of fractional silver 385.8 grains standard, or 347.22 grains pure. To make the bullion value of a silver dollar equal to the par value, silver would have to be quoted at 59 pence per ounce, English standard, making the fine ounce worth $1.2929+, and the American standard ounce worth $1.164+. The following table shows the value of the three different standard ounces and of the silver dollar and a dollar of subsidiary silver coin at different prices ranging from 30 to 60 pence in London, and also at one penny and fractions thereof: PENCE. English oz., 444 Grains. American oz., 432 Grains. Fine oz.,480 Grains. Silver Dol- lar, 371% Grains.

As, for instance, if silver were quoted in London at 40 7-16 pence, the value of a silver dollar and of a dollar of fractional silver would be as follows: Silver Dollar. Dollar of Subsidiary Silver. 40 pence 67. 8195 cents. 63.4297 cents. 7-16 pence 7418 cents. .6938 cents. 40 7-16 pence. 68.5613 cents. 64. 1235 cents. The bullion value of a silver dollar, with silver quoted in London at 40 7-16 pence per ounce, is 68.56 cents and of one dollar of fractional silver 64.12 cents. 74 CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 1893.

A bull is one who operates to raise the value of stocks, that he may buy for a rise. A bear is one who sells stocks for future de- livery, which he does not own at time of sale. A corner is when the bears cannot buy or borrow the stock to deliver in fulfillment of their contracts. Overloaded is when the bulls cannot take and pay for the stock they have purchased. A out and call is when a person gives so much per cent for the option of buying or selling so much stock on a certain fixed day, at a price fixed the day the option is given. Short is when a person or party sells stocks when they have none and expect to buy or borrow in time to deliver. Long is when a person or party has a plenti- ful supply of stocks. A pool or ring is a combination formed to control the price of stocks. A broker is said to carry stocks for his cus- tomer when he has bought and is holding it for his account. A wash is a pretended sale by special agree- ment between buyer and seller for the pur- pose of getting a quotation reported. CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC FOR 1893. COINS OF THE UNITED STATES. GOLD.

The quartermaster-general of the army has ssued the following bulletin regarding the history of the American flag: The American congress, in session at Phila- delphia, established by its resolution of June 14,1777, a national flag for the United States of America. The resolution was as follows: "Resolved, That the flag of the thirteen united states be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen tars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation." Although nearly a year previous, July 4, 776, these thirteen united states had been de- jlared independent, this resolution is the first egislative action recorded relating to a nation- al flag for the new sovereignty. The use of thirteen stripes was not a new feature, as they had been introduced (in alter- nate white and blue) on the upper left-hand corner of a standard presented to the Phila- delphia Light Horse by its captain in the early part of 1775, and moreover the union flag of the ihirteen united colonies raised at Washing- ;on's headquarters, at Cambridge, Jan. 2, 1776, iad the thirteen stripes just as they are this day; but it also had the crosses of St. George and St. Andrew on a blue ground in the cor- ner. There is no satisfactory evidence, how- ever, that any flag bearing the union of the stars had been in public use before the reso- ution of June, 1777. It is not known to whom the credit of designing the stars and stripes is due. It is claimed that a Mrs. John Ross, an uphol- sterer, who resided on Arch street, Philadel- phia, was the maker of the first flag combining the stars and stripes. Her descendants assert that a committee of congress, accompanied by General Washington, who was in Philadelphia n June, 1776, called upon Mrs. Ross and en- gaged her to make the flag from a rough draw- ing which, at her suggestion, was redrawn by General Washington, with pencil, in her back parlor, and the flag thus designed was adopted by congress. Although the resolution estab- lishing the flag was not officially promul- gated by the secretary of congress until Sept. 3, 1777, it seems well authenticated that tne stars and stripes were carried at the battle of the Brandy wine, Sept. 11. 1777, and thencefor- ward during all the battles of the revolution. Soon after its adoption the new flag was hoisted on the naval vessels of the United States. The ship Ranger, bearing the stars and stripes and commanded by Captain Paul Jones, arrived at a French port about Dec. 1, 1777, and her flag received on Feb. 14, 1778, the first salute ever paid to the American flag by foreign naval vessels. The flag remained un- changed for about eighteen years after its adoption. By this time two more states (Ver- mont and Kentucky) had been admitted to the union, and on Jan. 13,1794,congress enacted that from and after the 1st day of May, 1795, the flag of the United States be fifteen stripes, al- ternate red and white; that the union be fif- teen stars, white in a blue field. This flag was the national banner from 1795 to 1818, during which period occurred the war of 18l2.with Great Britain. By ISl^flve addition al states (Tennessee, Ohio, Louisiana, Indi ana and Mississippi) had been admitted to the union, and therefore a further change in the flag seemed to be required. After consid- erable discussion in congress on the subject, the act of April 4, 1818 was passed, which pro- vided: "1. That from and after the 4th day of July next the flag of the United States be thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate red and white; that the union have twenty stars, white in a blue field. 2. That on the admission of every new state into the union one star be added to the union of the flag and that such addition shall take effect on the 4th of July next succeeding such admission." The return to the thirteen stripes of the 1777 flag was due in a measure to a reverence for the standard of the revolution, but it was also due to the fact that a further increase of the number of stripes would have made the width of the flag out of proportion to its length un- ess the stripes were narrowed, and this would mve impaired their distinctness when seen from a distance. A newspaper of the time said: "By this regulation the thirteen stripes will represent the number of states whose valor and resources originally effected American in- dependence, and the additional stars will mark the increase of the state since the pres- ent constitution." No act has since been passed by congress altering this feature ef the flag, and it is the same as originally adopted, except as to the number of stars in its union. In the war with Mexico the national flag bore twenty nine stars in the union; during the late civi war thirty-five, and since July 4, 1891, forty four stars. In none of the acts of congress re- lating to the flag has the manner of arranging the stars been prescribed, and in consequence there has been a lack of uniformity In the matter, and flags in use by the public gener ally may be seen with the stars arranged in vari ousways. The early custom was to insert the stars in parallel rows across the blue field, and this custom has, it is believed, been observed in the navy at least since 1818, at which time the president ordered the stars to be arranged in such manner on the national flag used in the navy. In the army, too, it is believed, the stars have always been arranged in horizon ta rows across the blue field, but not always ii vertical rows; the effect however being about the same as in the naval flag. Hereafter there will be no difference in the arrangement between the army and navy, as an agree ment nas been arrived at between the war and navy department on the subject. Since July 4, 1891, the arrangement of stars in the flag of the army and ensigns in the navy is as fol- lows: The national flags hoisted at camps or forts are made of bunting of American manuf act ure. They are of the following three sizes The storm and recruiting flag, 8 feet in length by 4 feet 2 inches in width; the post flag measuring 20 feet in length by 10 feet in width the garrison, measuring 36 feet in length by 20 feet in width (this flag is hoisted only on holidays and great occasions). The union is one-third of the length of the flag and extends to the lower edge of the fourth red stripe from the top. The national colors carried bj regiments of infantry and artillery and the battalion of engineers, on parade or in battle are made of silk and are 6 feet 6 inches lonp and 6 feet wide and mounted on staffs. The field of the colors is 31 inches in length anc extends to the lower edge of the fourth red stripe from the top. THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT. National (Kobernmettt. EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
