NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-The Aew York
World this morning publishes the fol
lowing story:
David A. Dishler, of ULica, a gambler
and political thug, for whose apprehen
sion a reward of $2,500 has been of.
fered by Governor Flower, has been
acting as the accredited agent of the
Republican parts in shipping negroes
from Tennessee into West Virginia,
Virginia and New Jersey, to vote the
Republican ticket. Dishler's employer
is Chairman Charles W. Hackett, of
"blocks-of-one" and "confidential circu
lar fame." Dishler and Hackett have
been pals in Utica . politics for years,
When Dishler concocted and carried tc
a successful issue the daring scheme tc
literate "Tom" O'Brien, the prln.-e ol
bunco men, who was convicted of bunco.
Ing Farmer Post out of $10,000 last
April, the chairman oi the llepublican
campaign committee was separated from
him for a time. Dishler was indicted
in Albany County and Oneida County
and he has been a fugitive from justice
eversince. That they got together aftei
a very short while is shown by a lettei
which the World has photographed an
reproduces in fac simile to-day. Thii
letter was sent to Jos Frick, a saloor
keeper in Utica, who has been an asso

TARIFF REFORM IS ASSURED.

Denoorats on Tariff Questions.
NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-Indications
point to the balance of power in the
United States Senate being in the hands
of the Populist's or Farmers' Alliance
men. The Democrats appear to have
gained control of the State Legislature
on joint ballot in four States whi6h are
now represented by Republicans in the
upper house, and the Populist's claim
to be able to elect three new Senators.
This will change the standing of the
different parties in the Senate from 47
Itepublicans, 36 Democrats and 2 Far
mers' Alliance, to 43 Democrat, 40 Re
publIcans and 5 Farmers' Alliance.
Complete returns on the vote for mem
bers of the Legislature of several of
the Northwestern States are not to be
had, but the Farmers' Alliance appear
to have sufficient number of these
States to give them the balance of
power.
At midnight, report from yesterday's
Congressional elections, were still far
from complete. Statements of the po
litical divisions of the membership of
the Senate and House of Repres(nta
tives in the Fifty-third Congress neces
sarily contain elements of uncertainty
that cannot be avoided, but the reports
that have been received do not make
anj material changes in the tables here
tofore sent out by the 'nited 1'ress.
The Democrat claim that they have
carried the Wyoming Legislature. and
theretore will zecure a successor to
Senator Wtrren, whose term expires
larch 4 h t.ext. This would give them
12 Senators, and Almost certaluly give
to the 'Ihird party Senators the control
of that body. Enthusiastic Democrats,
however, clain that their part y will se
cure enough Senators from otber West
ern States to give them control of the
upper branch ot Congress after March
4. But i substantial basis for that
claim cannot be seen in the rerorts so
far received.
A number of changes in the compo
sition of State delegations in the next
louse of llepresentatives as heretofore
given have been made necessary by re
ports received tonight. The net re
- sults, however, do not vary materially
r from the figures given last night and
today. In th, Sixteenth New York
district, -rancia Mervin (Itep.), seems
to have defeat,d Henry M. Bacon,

silently shook hands with his callers
and then sinking into.a chair said:
"This is awful!', Turning to Collec

0ollector Cooper said that lie still had
hopes of Indiana. Quay made no re
ply, but listened silently as Collector
Cooper told him the situation of af
fairs.
To the question, "To what do you
attribute the lRepublican dlefeat?"
Senator Quay tersely replied, "Lack of
Vot.es."
"Well, then, wvhy do you think voters
were lacking y"
"You will have to ask the voter that
(juestion," replied Senator Quay.
"hlave you nothing to say. Senator,

"Nothing," saiid Quay, and lhe turned

WASiIINUTON, Nov. 9.--Secretary of e
State Foster attributes the Republican ii
defeat to the tariff issue. The party, '
he says, challenged the judgment of P
the countr y on the McKinley bill andl b
the verdict must be acceptedi as the fl
will of the people that a different poll- c
cy must be adopted. Other questions n
entered somewhat into the contest, but a
to no such extent as to materially af- ti
foot the result. Nor would it have ci
been different if any other candidates b
bad been selected or had other leadere a
managed the campaign. No Adminis- a
tration ever went before the country "
with a cleaner record. It is the policy, I
not the personal, of the Administra-' y
tion that has been condemned. In this n
view of the matter the Secretary was ti
gatified to hear that Cleveland was '
flkely to be sustained by a party major-. b
ity in both branches of Congress, so it
that the new pollcy may have a full

The ImMigrat ion Problem.
3ral Some very shrewJ suggistions in re
-or- gard to a question on which the whole
country it at present. intent may ie
o found In the following extrAct from an
g of article on immigration in the Chautau
not quan. As intimated by the writer, our
of boasted respectability of labor is at
1 , stake, and the longer the tide of unre
IND stricted immigration is allowed to flow
,cet in upon us the more insecure will be
come the foundations of our free Amer
t is ican institutions: "Granting that i
t migration as now conducted Is not ad
re- vantageous to our side, the question
may be asked: Does this country per
ud. form the Samaritan act in receiving it?
Suppose we drain off every festered
sIe spi-t of overpopulation in Europe for
tnt. one generation, conditions remaining
ese the same there, as they have for cen
turics, would not a single generation
uld fill u the vacanciel, and wretchednesi
to survIve as triumphant as ever? So
I of long as we perform our present office
will the demand for a different stake of
in- affairs be likely to be made of those
Lt European powers, partially responsible
for popular misery ? It wouk seem a
(18'-surer benevolence for this country to
lY, attempt to help others by the power of
,he example. Among our bUsted tenets
are those asserting the tespectability
im- of labor and the governing right of the
ate common people. Ilow long can we
or- maintain such claims if c, ntinually imi
Ie, porting elements fatal to them ? It is
ay alicat a question whether we dare
m,t further endanger our institutions by
lofty indiffereice regarding the mein
bers of our national household. Our
government among all is unique. It is
' to be fervently hop9:I that whettier we
i a reatrict the immigration of classes now
4c admitted or confine ourselves to per
fecting the execution of existing re
Ide strictions, we shall act in such a way
-as to maintain our proud place as an
tly example of free government by intelli
