WASHINGTON NEWS.
Secretary Tracy's Plan for Reforms in
Mavj- Yards-Secretary Proctor's Bu
rnored Resignation. c
By Telegraph to the MormnK Star.
Washington, April 9. Secretary
Tracy's new plan for reform of the pub
lic service in the navy yards as outlined
in his Boston speech will probably be
put into effect soon.
Assistant Secretary Soley is now at
w rk preparing a set of rules and regu
lations that will ftunish the machinery
ior the system and these are expected
to be ready for promulgation shortly.
The force of the navy yards is largely a
shifting one. and it is not to be expected
that there will be any wholesale dis
charges at present. It must be borne in
mind that the element of politics is to
be absolutely eliminated from the em
ployment of labor. There will not be
the least inquiry into the political faith
fo applicants.
Washington. April 9. It is learned
on good authority that Secretary Proc
tor has no intention of resigning his
offiic immediately. His return from the
West was caused by a personal reason,
in addition to his desire to see the
President before the latter starts on his
Western and Southern tour. He will
resume the discharge of his duties when
he returns to Washington. But if Gov
ernor Page, during the adjournment of
the Vermont Legislature, which does
not reassemble until a year from next
autumn, should conclude to appoint
Proctor to the United States Senate, to
hi! the vacancy to be caused by Senator
Edmund's retirement, it is stated by the
same authority that the Secretary will
accept the appointment. This action is
not likely to be taken until next fall,
and in the meantime Secretary Proctor
will continue to be a member of Presi
dent Harrison's Cabinet.
IMMIGRATION LAWS.
Alleged Violation by a Steamship Com
pany that Brings Most of the Italians
tathis Country.
By Telegraph to the Morain2 Star.
New York, April 9. The agents of
the Fabre Line of steamships that bring
most ofthe Italian immigrants to this
port, ha-e involved themselves in seri
ous complications with the United
States authorities, because of their viola
tion of the immigration laws.
Superintendent of Immigration, Col.
Weber, several days ago ordered that
twenty-four Italians who arrived on the
steamer Burgundia should be taken
back to Italy, as they were deemed to
have come here in violation of the laws.
The steamship agents protested against
this action, and yesterday Col. Weber
sent an inspector to the steamer to see
if the barred immigrants were on board,
as the vessel was to sail at 4 o'clock this
morning. The inspector found only three
of the immigrants there, but he was told
by the officers of the steamer that the
others were lounging around somewhere
and would turn up in time for the
steamer's sailing. The inspector re
mained aboard until the Burgundia
sailed, and then reported to Col. Weber
that the missing twenty-one immigrants
had not turned up, and that their
whereabonts was unknown. Col. Weber
will report the matter to the Secretary
of the Treasury.
FLORIDA SENATORSH I P.
Dunn Out of the Eace Call's Chances.
Dy Telegraph to the Morninj Star.
Tallahassk. April 9. As predicted
last night, Dunn is out of the race for
the United States Senatorship.
The Floridzan, this morning, publish
es a long communication from State
Senator Roger, who is also President of
.the State Alliance, in which he says he
cannot support either candidate Dunn
-or Call. In its editorial column the
Floridian advocates the election of a
. straightout Alliance man as United
States Senator. Dunn is owner of the
Florzdicui, having advanced money ne
cessary to change it from a weekly to a
daily newspaper.
This arrays "the field" against Call
and the candidate of the opposition is
thus far an unknown quantity. It will
be impossible to concentrate the Alli
ance members upon any one candidate,
although they have a majority of the
Legislature.
A Democratic joint caucus will pro
bably be called before Saturday night,
and Call's friends profess to be able to
carry it for their man.

Glasgow, April 9. The Anchor
Line Steamship Circassia. Capt. Hard
wick. which vessel left New York March
18th, reached Greenock yesterday with
fever on board, and is detained at quar
antine at Greenock. Further particu

others of the Circassia's crew are now
suffering from the same malady. The
nature of the fever is not stated.
Simla, April 9. Advices have been
received here of another fight near
Manipur. A heavy force of Manipuris
attacked Lieut. Grant's command at
Fort Thabat and were well whipped in
the fight, which lasted three hours.
The usurping rajah and two of his
prominent chiefs were among the kill
ed. The Manipuris loss was very heavy.
Captain Presgrave has arrived at Fort
Thabat, with much needed reinforce
ments. This, combined with Lieut.
Grant's victory, has so disheartened the
Manipuris that they now announce that
they are ready and willing to recognize
the authority of British officials direct
ly the British troops re-enter Manipur.
Additional British troops are on the
way to Manipur.

THE MOREWOOD RIOT.
Coroner's Inquest on the Slain Deputies
Arrested on the Charge of Murder.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Mount Pleasant, Pa., April 4.
Interest is centered to-day in the coron
er's inquesT, which reopened at noon.
So far nothing important has been
elicited. Strikers seem to have renewed
hope. The leaders have been at work
among them for the past few days and
the effect is noticeable. The men are
holding off until to-morrow's meeting,
which is called by Master Workman
Wise. It is evident the same concession
is to be made by the strikers, but just
what it is cannot be ascertained.
- Peter Wise, Master Workman of the
Knights of Labor, and Vice President
Penn, of the United Mine Workers, left
for the East this morning. Wise will
stop at Philadelphia, where he will ap
pear before the General Executive
Board of the Knights of Labor and try
to induce Powderly to come here.
Penn will visited the headquarters of
the American Federation of Labor in
New York. In speaking of to-morrow's
convention, Peter Wise said: "We want
peace. If the men can make terms with
optrators, officers and leaders are will
ing to step aside. Operators have said
that they are willing to meet the men,
and we will give them an opportunity to
do so."
Mount Pleasant, Pa., April 9.
This afternoon Capt. Lear and thirteen
deputies were arrested on charges of
murder. They were taken to Scottdale
on the 2.40 train, where they will give
bail for a hearing later.
ATTEMTED LYNCHING.
The County Jail at Kansas City, Mo., At
tacked by a Mob.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Kansas Cit , Mo., April 9. A crowd
of 500 men last night attacked the
county jail with the intention of lynch
ing William McKoy, who brutally mur
dered his mistress, Nellie McTruaer, last
Sunday night by beating her to a jelly
with stones. A previous attempt to lynch
McKoy was made last Monday, at the
time of his preliminary trial, but the
prison was so well guarded that the at
tempt was abandoned. The sheriff con
cluded that the excitement among the
negro population had subsided suf
ficiently to warrant the witndrawal
of the extra guards, and when the attack
last night was made it was wholly unex
pected. Negroes gathered quietly about
the building, and at 12.45 twenty of their
number, masked and otherwise dis
guised, broke in the outer door and im
mediately proceeded to that part of the
building which was partitioned off for
the jail. This is separated from the rest
of the building by a stout iron door. Only
one guard was on duty. He drew his
revolver and threatened to shoot the
first man who approached the door. The
committee of twenty, after some parley
ing, withdrew and joined their comrades
outside. After a further parley the en
tire mob dispersed. The guard has been
doubled in anticipation of another at
tack. ELECTRIC SPARKS.

hours is ,.206, against 176 for the

deaths where the contributing cause was
the grip.

CHICAGO ELECTION.
The Official Canvass Necessary to Decide
the Result.
l!v Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Chicago, April 9. Official canvass
of the votes in the late election began
this afternoon and it is expected that
the work wilf not be completed inside of
a week.
Both Republicans and Democrats continue-to
claim the election of their re
spective candidates for Mayor, and un
til the official canvass is finished it will
be impossible to declare positively which
is correct. Two alleged errors in the
returns made Tuesday night were dis
covered to-day. In the Twenty-seventh
Ward the Republicans claim that Wash
burn was not credited with fifty votes
which were cast for him, and in the
Twentv-hfth Ward the Democrats claim
that the number of votes a edited "to
Cregier was 100 short.

CHICAGO REVIEW.
Fluctuations in Prices of Grain and
Provisions.
1jv" I'cleKraj-h to the Morning Siar
Chicago, April 9. The foreign mar
kets were still firm, and again sent many
orders to this country for liberal quan
tities of both wheat and flour, but it
needed sensational doings to sustain
yesterday's prices here, and only con
tinuation of the former condition of
things was advised, and holders here
who have accepted bids made by shorts
yesterday for large lines of their hold
ings were not averse to the reaction.
Wheat for May opened at $1.05 ard
closed at $1.04is bid, July from $1.04J4
at the start sold off to SL02 3-0. and
closed at the bottom of the day's range.
The corn market was firm at the
start, influenced by wet weather and the
strength in wheat. There was a gradual
decline, in sympathy with wheat, until
018 was reached, from which there was
a sudden upturn to 67?4C. A subsequent
reaction, still following the lead of
wheat, left the market weak and near
its lowest point.
Fluctuations in oats were numerous
but not large, and a fair amount of busi
ness was transacted within a range
of c.
Provisions were heavy and for the
most part dull. The opening was under
yesterday's closing figures, and the clos
ing prices were at the lowest point of
the day.
COTTON.
The New York Futures Market Yesterday.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
New York, April 9. The Sun's cot
ton circular says:
Futures opened a little unsettled,
afterward improved, then lost most of
the improvement, closing steady at only
a partial advance on the final prices of
yesterday. Liverpool reported a small
advance, which it quickly lost. Man
chester was dull and weak. Southern
reports were generally favorable to crop
prospects, it having become quite warm
in some sections. Notwithstanding
these adverse influences the demand to
cover contracts, in conjunction with a
smaller intciior movement, caused t?
slight advance, but in the last hour the
demand fell off and the market turned
weaker, Soot cotton was dull, but the
high grades were advanced MiN$c.
