TAPPING THE UIKES.
A terrible wind and rain storm visited
Frankfort, Marshall county, Kansas, Friday
evening, which lasted two hours, and did a
great deal of damage. At Irvin, sixteen
houses were blown down, eight persons were
killed, twenty-five were wounded, and seve
ral are missing. A span of the railroad
bridge crossing Blue river was also blown
down.
The Lieutentant General of the Canadian
militia has conveyed the highest compli
iuents of the Governor General to the troops
which lately visited Montreal to celebrate
the Queen’s birthday, and he alluded to the
participation of the Thirteenth Brooklyn
(N. Y.) Regiment on that occasion as one of
the most striking events of the day.
A watchman at the Morey livery estab
lishment, Montreal, was knocked senseless
by certain ruffians in that city on Saturday
night, and a desperate but unsuccessful at
tempt was made to fire the building. The
watchman has since died of his injuries. It
is thought that cab drivers of the city, who
were Inimical to Morey, committed the
act.
Kellogg's request to be accorded the same
privileges in the Spofforu Kellogg Senatorial
contest as have been granted Judge Spof-
ford has been complied with, and he has
been furnished a sergeant-at arms and blank
subpmnas for summoning eight witnesses in
New Orleans.
Bismarck has invited Hamburg and
Bremen to surrender their privileges as free
ports and associate themselves with the Im
perial fiscal system, in such terms as to give
them to understand if they do not comply
they will be forced to accede to his wishes.
Reports of yellow fever in Vicksburg are
emphatically denied.
Judge Bradley has decided the Florida
railroad cases against the railroad com
panies and in favor of the Dutch bond
holders. The verdict against the Florida
Central is for one hundred and ninety-seven
thousand dollars, with interest for about
nine years, and that against the Jackson-
sonville, Pensacola and Mobile Railroad is
for about two million seven hundred and
fifty thousand dollars, with like interest.
Appeals will be taken. Decrees ordering
the sale of the roads are in course of pre
paration.
A majority of the Supreme Court at
Jackson, Tenn., Saturday morning decided
that the previous charter of the city of
Memphis has been validly repealed by the
late Legislature, and that the same people
and same terrritory has been constitu
tionally reincorporated under a general law
providing for the reorganization of mu
nicipal corporations. A minority of the
court held that the repealing act was valid,
but the law creating a taxing district is un
constitutional and void.
The trial of Miss Duer, charged with kill
ing Miss Hearn, was continued at Snow Hill
Saturday. Testimony regarding the con
dition of Miss Hearn’s mind when she made
her dying declaration was elicited. The
Judge declined, however, to decide upon
the admissibility of dying declarations until
he heard the arguments of counsel on that
point. The trial will proceed to-day.
The two advisory committees of the
House and Senate Democratic caucuses held
a joint meeting Saturday and reached an
unanimous agreement as to the course of
the Democratic party in regard to the ap
propriation bills. This agreement is to the
effect that the bills shall be passed on the
same basis as during the fiscal year just
past, but with the insertion of clauses that
no money shall be expended for defraying
the expenses of the army as a police force
to keep the peace at the polls, that no
provision 6hall be made for the pay of
Federal supervisors of elections and deputy
marshal at the polls, and that no officer
shall be appointed or obligation incurred
for any object for which a specific appro
priation shall not have been made by Con
gress. It is thought that this plan of action
will be presented to the Democratic joint
caucus to-day and that it will be adopted.
.In the Louisiana Constitutional Conven
tion Saturday, majority and minority reports
in regard to payment of the State.debt were
presented. The minority report recom
mends paying the legal and repudiating the
Illegal portion ot the debt, and for the issu
ing of new refunding bonds at 4 per cent,
interest. The minority favor paying the
whole debt in loto.
It is announced that the late Portuguese
Ministry, before its retirement, concluded a
treaty with Great Britain favoring the sup
pression of the slave trade, and the devel
opment of the commerce and civilization of
Africa.
King Alfonso opened the Spanish Cortes
in person yesterday. His speech 6hows the
condition of the country to be satisfactory.
Efforts will be made to do away with the
effect of the ten years war in Cuba, and to
place that colony in the position of a pro
vince of 8pain, and will hasten the day for
the complete abolition of slavery.
William Porter alias Morris, and John
Irving alias Joseph Condit, two notorious
burglars, escaped from the Raymond street
jail, Brooklyn, yesterday. A reward of two
thousand five hundred dollars has been
offered for their recanture.
The Iowa Greenback Convention was
held on Wednesday. One-third of the
State was unrepresented. Daniel Camp
beli was nominated for Governor. But
a few votes were cast for the Democratic
nominee for Governor. The platform
adopted denounces resumption, declares
that the government alone must issue
money in amounts to be constitutionally
fixed on a per capita basis, and that sil
ver dollars be coined without limit, en
dorses the arrearages of pension bill, and
declares that the violence of partisan
spirit In Congress should be condemned
as tending to revive tLe dead issues of
the past, while conspiring against and
refusing to provide measures of relief
for the present. It further declares in
favor of an honest, unintimidated ballot
and a fair count, and that the salaries of
officials be reduced from 25 to 50 per
cent, from llayes down. Quite a num
ber of delegates withdrew from the con
vention at various stages of its progress.
The Silk Industry.—About seventy,
five silk manufacturers, silk importers,
and others of the Silk Association of
America partook of a banquet in New
York on Tuesday evening. Several
speakers urged the establishment of
schools for the education of American
weavers in such a manner that they can
compete in artistic work with those of
older nations, and one of them referred
■with emphasis to the proposed commer
cial treaty with France as menacing the
domestic silk trade very seriously.
The Demoerotic Ultimatum.
We present this morning in our Wash
ington dispatches the future action to be
recommended to the majority in Con
gress in reference to the vetoed appropria
tion bills, and which there is little douLt
will be decided on by the Democratic
joint caucus as the proper course to be
finally pursued. It is, in brief, that as
regards the support of the army, sup
plies will be voted on the same basis
as during the past fiscal year, with
this condition . that no portion
of the money appropriated shall
l>e used >n any way to defray the ex
pen9es of troops for police purposes at
the polls. As regards the support of
the legislative, executive and judiciary
departments, supplies will also be voted
on the same basis as at present, except
that no provision will be made for the
pay of election supervisors, and also with
the express proviso that no officer shall be
appointed, or obligation incurred, for any
object for which no specific appropria
tion shall he made. The jurors’ test
oath will be repealed in a separate bilL
In relation to the army appropriation
there can be no doubt that Congress has
the absolute right to place the limit pro
posed to the expenditure of the public
money which will be voted for the army
support. The Constitution plainly says
that Congress shall have power to provide
and maintain an army, and to make
rules for the government and regulation
of the land and naval forces. In carry
ing out this authority, no one can for
moment say that Congress has not abso
lute right to cut off such expenses as
regards not necessary for the mainten
mce of the army, and, therefore, since
it does not regard using the army as
police force at the polls as necessary,
has the undisputed right to say that no
expense of such character shall be per
mittecL
The power of Congress to place the
restrictions mentioned in the legislative,
executive and judicial bill, is also equally
clear. Indeed, as our dispatches state,
the clause prohibiting the appointment
of any officer to perform duties for
which no compensation is made by the
appropriation bills, is in exact accord
ance with a law at this time on the
statute books, aud the additional prohibi
tion that no obligation shall be incurred
jfor any object for which no specific ap
propriation shall l>e made, is clearly
based upon the same principles as those
upon which the law aforesaid is founded.
This proposed action of the Demo
cracy, therefore, will have the effect of
preventing the use of troops at the polls,
or the appointment of Federal super
|visors of elections, unless indeed the
army and the overseers are both willing
to work without pay or allowance.
While these latter gentry,especially, may
be willing to volunteer their services in
hopes that, in case of Radical success,
they may be rewarded by place and
position in the same way that the cor
rupt Radical returning boards of the
South have been rewarded by Hayes,
still these provisions in the appropria
|tion bills will tend to decidedly
cool their ardor, particularly if, during
the coming fall elections, the people
shall speak out unmistakably in opposi
tion to militaiy despotism, and in favor
of political liberty^
From various ueterances lately pub
lished in special correspondence from
Washington to the New Orleans Demo
crat and other papers, a defection in
the Democratic ranks over the appro
priation bills seemed at one time to be
imminent, and—under the circumstances,
harmony in the ranks next to the main
tenance of Democratic principles, be
ing the main thing to be consid
ered—the passage of the appropriation
bills as herein restricted may be the
best plan for the Democracy to adopt.
| We cannot see upon what grounds Mr.
Hayes can again possibly veto the ap
priation bills as above outlined. If he
does veto them, however, there will be
but one course left for Congress, and
that will be to adjourn without making
any further effort to prevent Hayes
from starving the govern ment to death.
A Needless Resort to Arms.
We are informed that Mr. E. C. Wade,
Collector of Internal Revenue for this
district, made requisition for and re
ceived on Saturday, from the Secretary
of War, a supply of guns and ammuni
tion. These munitions of war, we are
told, are to be used by Collector Wade
in arming bis force of officers $nd em
ployes, now being organized, to operate
against illicit distillers of spirtuous
liquors and other violators of the inter
nal revenue laws in Georgia, who he rep-
sents as being “banded together and in
armed resistance and defiance of the laws
of the United States.”
While all good citizens must approve
the strict enforcement of the laws and
uphold the officers in the faithful dis
charge of their duty to the goyernnjent,
all must regret this action op the part of
•he Collector of Internal Revenue a£
wholly unnecessary. There is, as far as
we are informed, no evidence that any
such armed combinations exist, or that
any formidable resistance has been
offered to the Collectors of revenue in
Georgia. That there are occasional
violations and evasions of the re
venue laws in this State, as else
where, will not be denied, but
no such resistance or defiance
of the civil authorities is offered as
would justify an appeal to the govern
ment for “arms and ammunition” or for
the organization and parade of armed
men in time of peace. In case resistance
should be offered to civil process in the
enforcement of the law, the civil arm of
the government would find ready sup
port by our law abiding ^citizens, while
the menace of “armed men” is calculated
to bring the laws into odium and to excite
turbulence rather than conserve the
peace.
It will be time enough to collect reve
nue at the point of the bayonet when
civil process fails, and the republic is
changed to a military despotism.
The name of the New York war Demo
crat to whom Secretary Sherman wrote a
letter of recent date, indicating that he
was an aspirant for Presidential honors,
is John B. Haskin, of Fordham, West
chester county, N. Y. Mr. Haskins was
a member of the Thirty-fifth or Thirty-
sixth Congress. Mr. Haskin has been
written to by friends in Washington to
print the letter in full, as there is a good
deal of curiosity to know what was em
braced between the asterisks.
Civil Service Reform.—The House
Committee oo Civil Service Reform has
agreed to report fayorably a bill prohibit
ing government employee from making
contributions for election purposes.

The United States Consul at Morocco
furnishes the Department of State with
late information concerning the ravages
of typhus fever in the Empire of
Morocco. The deaths in the city have
numbered three hundred a day, many of
the victims being Europeans, who suffer
alike with the natives. Fanzine has
added to the horrors of the epidemic. To
mitigate its ravages a famine fund has
been raised by the Ministers of France,
England and Spain, to which the Ameri
can Consul at Tangiers has contributed
one thousand pounds of bread. The epi
demic still prevails and great distress
exists.
An
Plat-
Ingenious and Dishonest
form.
The Ohio Republican platform, says
the Baltimore San, like the nominations
made in connection with it, is ingenious.
In the nominations Mr. Foster represents
the liberal and conservative wing of his
party, while Gen. Hickenlooper was
United States Marshal under Grant
The platform pledges the Republican
party of the State to the maintenance of
free suffrage and the supremacy of the
National Government in all matters
placed by the Constitution under its con
trol. It appeals to the people through
the ballot box to arrest “the mad career"
of the Democratic party in plotting to
regain through legislation “the cause
which they lost in the field. ” It accuses
that party of haring committed itself to
an attempt to break up the government
by refusing appropriations “unless the
Executive shall give his official signa
ture to measures which he conscien
tiously disapproves—measures plainly
intended to allow free course to fraud
and violence and corruption in the na
tional elections, and to impair the
constitutional supremacy of the
nation." It also accuses the ' Demo
cratic conspirators" of prolonging the
present extra session “beyond all possi
ble excuse,” “with the avowed determi
nation to repeal all war legislation." It
further pledges the earnest and undivided
support of the party to the President in
his opposition to the designs of the
majority in Congress. This covers all
of the platform which touched the sub
stance of the present controversy in Con
gress, and it will be seen at once that
while it is highly accusative, and prompt
to announce Democratic measures, it
avoids saying a single word in defense
of the Republican measures which the
Democrats are seeking to have repealed.
It avoids anything which may be con
strued into a positive defense of bayonets
at the polls, or of the super
visor and United States marshal
sections of the election laws. It
does not assert that these
sections are rightly upon the _ statute
books, or that they should be retained
there. It scrupulously evades anything
which would seem to commit the Repub
lican party in Ohio to making its cam
paign next fall upon defensive ground.
It does not want the obnoxious sections
repealed, but while it hopes that the
President will continue to prevent their
repeal, it carefully avoids saying so ex
plicitly and directly. The Republican
party in Ohio, looking forward to the
next Presidency, is not willing to make
its campaign issue in the defense of the
use of troops at the polls and in defense
of the present election laws, and it re
sorts to these evasions at the very mo
ment when the President and the Repub
lican representatives in Congress are
strenuously resisting the repeal of the
statutes by which such things are author
ized. The situation is anomalous, but
suggestive.
BY TELEGRAPH.
Condition of Liberia.
The Depart ment of State is indebted to
the Navy Department for very interesting
reports of the condition of Liberia. The
flagship Ticonderoga is now cruising ou
the coast of Africa. Commodore Shufeldt
has assigned to Paymaster Thompson the
duty of preparing the commercial re
ports. “Liberia,” says Mr. Thompson,
occupies the natural gateway to the
rich lands of the interior. The Liberians
are naturally proud of tbe richness of
the country. The bids are full of miner
als and metals. Coffee grows naturally
and requires very little care and culliva
tion. It finds a ready market at good
prices. But important as these consider
ations are, the great opportunity of
Liberia lies in her geographical position
the key to the immense commerce of
the interior.” Among the ports of entry
already established on the coast are Mon
rovia, Robertsport, Marsliyll, Buchanan,
Edma, Greenville and Harper. The
trade with the aborigines is conducted
by the Liberian merchants at various
points on the coast and up thq river, and
to a great extent is simply a system of
barter. Not only all kinds of fruits,
grain, etc., that belong to a tropical
country thrive in Liberia, but many of
the plants and vegetables of the temper
ate zone. Physicians, teachers and
clergymen receive fair salaries. The
professors and teachers in the college are
paid by mission societies in the United
States. The Liberian Government pays
the salary of the principal of the pre
paratory department.
Paymaster Thompson’s glowing ac
count of the attractions of Liberia is not
corroborated by those emigrant!* whq,
after making the experiment of a settle
ment in that country, have returned in
disgust to their old homes in the South.
While they do not deny that coffee and
all kinds of fruits grow there, they repre
sent the climate as exceedingly unhealthy
living expensive, and the opportunities
for making a comfortable support ex
tremely discouraging.
THE FLORIDA RULROAD CASES.
DECrSION RENDERED ON SATI R-
DAY BY JU DGE BRADLEY.
General Littlefield'* Habeas Corpus
Case.
Special Telegram to the Morning News.
Jacksonville, Fla., May 31.—Judge
Bradley to-day decided the railroad cases in
favor ot the Pensacola and Gulf bondhold
ers and the Dutch bondholders. A decree
for the sale of tbe two roads was made, the
judgment against the Jacksonville, Pensa
cola and Mobile Railroad being over three
million dollars, and against the Florida
Central over three hundred thousand. The
bill of the Western North Carolina Railroad
was dismissed with costs. Appeals will be
taken. The memorandum plan is triumph
ant.
The habeas corpus case of Littlefield has
not yet been decided.
Bu the Associated Pres*.
Jacksonville, May 31.-—The decision of
Judge Bradley in the cases of the Western
North Carolina Railroad Company against
the Florida Central and Jacksonville, Pen
sacola and Mobile Rdlroad Companies and
others, and the case of J. Fred Shutte and
others against the Florida Central and Jack
sonville, Pensacola and Mobile Railroad
Companies and others, which were tried
together, has just been delivered.
The Judge holds that the lien of
the so-called Dutch bondholders is a prior
lien to that of the North Carolina Com
pany, whose funds were fraudulently in
vested in the Florida roads, and dismisses
the North Carolina Company’s bills. He
grants the lien in favor of the Dutch bond
holders and against the Florida Central for
$197,000 and interest for about nine years
against the Jacksonville, Pensacola and
Mobile Railroad for about $2,750,000, with
like interest. From this decision the North
Carolina Company and the Florida Central
and Jacksonville, Pensacola and Mobile
Companies of Florida have prayed appeals.
Decrees ordering the sale of the roads are in
preparation. The rights of J. Gibbs to the
road from Quincy to the Chattahoochee,
twenty-five miles, are reserved for further
investigation.
THE DEMOCRATIC ULTIMATUM
Rumors that Hayes Will Veto It Also
Special Telegram to the Momino News.
Washington, June 1.—It seems almost
useless for the Democrats to make any
efforts to frame a bill which, while pro
viding for the support of the government,
will prevent the Radicals from using the
army for election purposes and surrounding
the polls with partisan supervisors and
deputy marshals. The bill to be reported
by the sub-committee of the caucus to the
general committee to-morrow, extends the
existing appropriations for twelve months,
but specially provides that no troops shall
be used at the polls and no part of tbe
money appropriated shall be available for
transporting troops for such purpi^ges, and
no appropriations whatever will be made
for deputy marshals.
It is intimated to night, on good authority,
that the proposed bill has been discussed by
Hayes and his advisers, and a veto will be
forthcoming under the specious plea that
the measure circumscribes the power of the
Executive to use the army to put down riots
of any character whatever, and stops the
use of deputy marshals.

John Sherman at Hig Tricks.
There was, remarks the Bridgeport
Farmer, a remarkable coincidence in
date between Secretary Sherman’s order
restricting further sales of the refunding
certificates, and the Syndicate’s advance
of the price of the four per cents. The
identity of the date may have been
merely a coincidence, but it looks very
like a preconcerted arrangement. Ocr
tainly, Secretary Sherman, had he de
sired, could not have devised a better
method of aiding the Syndicate to
squeeze” the large “short” interest in
four per cents than his order stopping
further sales of the refunding certificates
New York. His statement that he
was moved by a desire to put the certifi
cates into thq hands of small investors
jnstcad of speculators, is absunj. Had
such been his policy, he would not have
stayed his hand untii his supply of certi
ficates was nearly exhausted, ije has,
from the very outset of the refunding
operations, played steadily into the
hands of a certain Wall street clique,
and in their interest and to their great
profit has turned the four per cents into
speculative instead of a popular loan.
He doubtless expects, aud wi}l receive,
payment therefor in the contest for the
Republican Presidential nomination, and
the campaign, if he secures that
nomination.
The report accompanying the House
bill on the electoral count says that
“recent events have made it clear that
neither the rulings of returning boards
nor the decisions of judicial tribunals
can be safely made conclusive as to the
electoral votes of States; but the con
current action of the two Houses of
Congress upon such a question, if not
absolutely right, will always represent
the prevailing public opinion, and will
therefore give general satisfaction.”
The centralization theories and ten
dencies of the Republican party, says the
Washington Post, point straight to the
practical abrogation of State govern
ments. The progress already made in
that direction has aroused stout opposi
tion, not so much in the South as in the
North. Even staunch Republicans in
the smaller States are loud and emphatic
in their denunciation of anything that
seems like aggression on the reserved
rights of the States.

An Experiment in Indian Civiliza
tion.
An experiment is now in progress at
the Hampton Normal and Agricultural
Institute in Virginia which may have an
important bearing on the future of the
Indians in the United States. The de
sign of the institute was to educate
colored youth of both sexes by practical
methods to become teachers. For ten
years this work has been going on, and
there are now more than two hundred
colored teachers in the South who gradu
ated from this school. In April of last
year a new departure was made in the
institute. Seventeen Kiowa Indians
were then placed under General Arm
strong’s management by private
benevolence, and since then the United
States Government has added forty In
dian boys and young men and nine Indian
girls. Each Indian rooms with a colored
student, and the harmony between the
races is seemingly perfect. The Indians
are especially instructed in the use of
tools, and will this summer be camped
out on the farm of several hundred acres
belonging to the Institute, to teach them
the practical care of stock. They are
found to be quick to learn in the classes,
and conform themselves readily to
the rules of the school. Those brought
from the West in November last asked
to have their hair cut short within
three days after entering the Institute.
It is proposed that they shall remain
through a course of three years, and
shall then be returned to their tribes. It
is believed that an important civilized
influer.ee will be exerted by them upon
their untrained brethren. By educating
an equal number of Indian girls, it is
thought the result will be frequent mar
riages between the graduates and the
establishment of civilized homes in the
midst of barbarous tribes. As it costs
the government several thousand dollars
to kill an Indian, such an experiment as
this is in the interest of economy as well
as of humanity.
