Teri CHANCES OF THE COMME.ROIAL TREATIES—TrARIFF REV ISION--MR. RAND-.4.1,L/S Ton a. WASTIMOTON, December 19th, 1884. The question of interest in Washink- ton now is the Spanish treaty submitted by Minister Fostir. As has already been generally published, the terms of this treaty are such that its confirmation would reduce the tariff on tobacco 50 per cent., and on sugar in a similarly radical manner. While the Senate has not yet reached a discussion of the treaty, its merits have been pretty thor- ough ly debated by the Senators and members individually, and it is evident that it will encounter very strong oppo- - sitiom The President, the Secretary of State, and Minister Foster have present- ed their argument in its favor, but the business interests involved have replied - with vigor.. The House also is inclined to treat the metter coldly. The Demo- crats, as a party, are not disposed to let • Repuliliean administration deal thus peremptorily with tariff revision, and a very strong element of the Republicans object very decidedly to any such reci- procity. These are all strong protec- tionists, and it is generally understood that Mt. Blaine is inspiring the oppesi- -tion on that score. Besides all this, there is a spirit of angry resentment on the part of many members 'f the House of Representatives at what they term an infringement of their prerogatives, claim- ing that the Executive is practically usurping the functions of the Legislative pkwer. So, altogether, according to present indications, the prospects of the treaty, or for that matter of any of the, treaties, are not particularly bright. I understand that Messrs. Morrison, Mills, Blount, and the Speaker have de- cided that there shall be no tariff bill reported from the ways and Means com- mittee this session. Mr. Morrison wants to teat the sentiments of the new mem- bers elected to the next House before urging the question again. He hopes then to ,passa lull of his own creation instead of pressing Mr. Hewitt's mea- sure, It is said that the revenue reform- ers will have anquestionable control of the new House, and it is asserted by Morrison's friends that the Republicans .of Missouri and other States anti -protection sentiment is stro pledged themselves to support a reduce duties., The announcement is made that Mr. Rand ell will soon start on a trip to the West and South. He will go as far south as Birminghaaa, Alabama, and will visitslaniong other cities Atlanta, Nash- ville and Louisville. His wife will ac- company him, and he is -booked for a number of speeches. There is no special occasion or event at any of the cities to take Mr. Randall there. It is given out that he merely takes advantage of the recess to meet his Southern friends who hare repeatedly invited him to do so, bufsit may be that the astute Samuel is laying his wires for Some Southern dele- gations in the convention in 1888, or getting nearer the present time for votes I avenues and squarest for the speakership of the next Coogress. The statue of Dupont, which is now in place, will be unveiled with appro- priate ceremonies on the 20th inst. Senator Bayard will be the orater of the occasion. The statue is considered a very: creditable work. It bears a very strik- ing likeness t� the officer commemorat- ed, and makes a. notable addition to the is of heroic size, m bronze, and the sub- they appear to have bred rani ject is represented standing upon the the Eaglish sportsman is pr deck of his vessel, with his head uncav- new pleasure in hunting th • ered:and raised, as if crazing at a vessel coyote. in the distance.

Th.e sculptor was Mr. Leant Makea, it is repoeted, became s Thompson, of Philadelphia, and the ed at her police for permitting ( cost of the statute was $13,000, and of the pedestal and preparations $6,800. The President cannot make it con- venient to go to New Orleans and de- clare the geand. exposition open, so he - decided to perform the ceremony by telegraph. instruments will be placed in the east room of the White House, and at the proper hour an executive order to let or go" be promul- gated, Mr. Arthur has again taken up his abode at the White House. He has not occupied his cottage at the Soldiers' Home since his new York 'friends came on, to Washingtoneto consult him with reference to the senatorship. It seems that the absurd story going around about Dorsey having given $100 - to Bob Ingersoll _as his fee in the Star Route trial was made out of whole cloth. I asked an intimate friend of Dorsey about the matter, and he told me that there was not a word of truth in:it. The fact is that Dorsey never paid Ingersoll a cent for the work he did for him. Colonel Ingersoll by the way, has returned to Washington with affresh stock of highly in talk. He has delivered about fifty lectures daring the past two months, and his net profit from these talks is considerably over $25,000. ere the g, have bill to ations,and wish to underetand p incipl that will help them to put to b omel t apers t oPomi- . i ons ha s foun pants ontent ing th roduce use the money which may , them, —A story is going a.boUt the the effect that we are indjMited. peii for the canned.fruit industr said that soon after the excavat commenced a party of America some jars of preserved figs th of a lava -covered house.
