Warhihoton, June 27. —Consul Meeker of Bradford, England, reports that the decrease in the cloth trade of that place with the United States as compared with lest year has been from #:t47,779 in February to #1,702,60# In .May The principal items affect ed were worsted coatings for men's wear, closely followed by stuffs com prising linings, dress goods, etc., while cotton goods are credited with a dee reuse of twenty-eight per cent. The machinery expot ts increased fifty-two per cent All of the mills in tlie American trade have consequently either been put on short time or have a lurge portion of their looms idle and numbers of workmen have been thrown out of employment, while a there has also been a falling off in the price of finished woods. To counteract the depression the fashionable world of England has been appealed to to use the products of the Bradford mills in place of the foods now imported in quantities from ranee and Ucrmany.

Another editorial under the caption, "Taubeneck's Address Untimely," in the same issue, says: "Chairman Taubeneck and a number of other gentlemen who are more or less prominent In Populist national poli tics, have issued an address in which they point out certain lines which Populists should work along. The principal feature of the address is an appeal for the nomination of Senator Teller for President. Tide action is extremely untimely, it la in reality the duty of the rank and file to attend to the matter of naming a Presiden tial candidate. It is very apparent from the sentimentgenerally expressed that the Populist party will nomin ate for President a man who believes in it* entire plat form.

Chicago, June Kx-Umted Slates Senator Lymuu Trumbull died at lit* home in l.hla city at 3 o'clock tbla morning after a long illneaa relieved by frequent ralliea during which It waa hoped Lie might recover. Kor the last week, however, Ills death in no greet time was a foregone eouoluaiou. Lyman Trumbull wan horn in Col cheater, Conn.. October rj, lsl3. He waa educated at llacoo academy, taught a village acliool when 1U for 910 a month ami "boarded ’round.” While thus employed he walked home every Saturday night, a distance of thirteen mile*, apent Sunday, and walked hack to Ills acliool Monday morning. At the age of 1<I year* he ahipped at New York on a nailing veaael for Charleston, H. C.; thence wrnt across the country to Greenville, Ga , where he taught In the academy for three years aud at the same time road law. With a license in his pocket to engage In practice he aturted for the Northwest, riding on horseback over the Cumberland mountain* and through the valley of the Tennessee, accepting the hospitality of a dis tinguished Cherokee chief en route; on through Vaudalla and Jacksonville, 111., where he procured a license to practice in that state; thence to Chi cago and eastward through Michigan to his old home. In the fall of the name year he returned West and set tled in Jtcllcville. 111., in IH.17. lu 1840 Mr. Trumbull was in the legislature, a colleague of O. li. Browning. Jyiige Thomas Drummond and Abraham Lincoln. In 1841 he was secretary of Litis Slate. In 1848 he was judge of the first Supremo court of the State, organized under the revised constitution. In 1854 lie was elected to Congress as an anti NchrusUu Democrat, but never took Ills seat. In February, I8.’i5, lie was e ected United States seuator by the legislature The contest for the sen atorship was between Ueneral Shields, candidate fur re-election and nom inee of the Democratic caucus, and Abraham Lincoln, candidate of the Whips. Five or six of the anti-Ne braska Democrats refused to support Shields because he had voted for the repeal of the Missouri Compromise and opeueil up free territory to slavery. After numerous ballots Lincoln withdrew and asked his fol lowers to vote for Trumbt II. By the vote of these and the half-dozen anti slavery Democrats he was elected, ills education and training had fixed his attitude of hostility to slavery, and his nature revolted at ita threat ened extension northward. Very naturally, therefore, lie yielded to hU convictions and honored himself by uniting with the elements of the op position In the organization of a new party on that absorbing issue. lie became a charter member of the Re publican party. In the Henate he warned the Southern leaders that any attempt to dismember the Union was madness. In 18*10 Senator Trumbull was brought forward by some Republicans as a candidate for President, tie had no desire to be so considered and when his friend, Abraham Lincoln, was nominated he worked hard for his election. Mr. Trumbull was re-elected to the Senate in 1881 and served through his second and third terms. He believed and maintained that the constitution, in Investing Congress with the power “to raise aud support armies,” and to “call forth the militia to execute the lawn of the United States, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions.” conferred ample authority to pass all laws uecessury for the preservation of the union For almost a year after the opening of the rebellion, slaves that came into the lines of the union army found neither freedom nor pro tection. Tire President hesitated long to turn this element of support against the enemy, lest his action might be construed as an unwarranted interference with slavery in the states. In December, 1881, Senator Trumbull gave notice in the Seuale of his intention to intro duce a bill for tire confiscation of the property of rebels, to give freedom to persons held in slavery. In March following a new article of war was euacted forbidding the return of slaves found within the Union lines, lie supported this measure and the confiscation bill, defended eniaiiripa tiou and the suspension of liabeas i corpus.

Juno 25.—During the early morning the members of the committee on resolutions of the Dem ocratic state convention were working on the phraseology of the proposed single resolution on silver with an At tachment for the unit rule. The state central committee was re organized with W. W. Durbin of Ken ton aa chairman and John A. Rule of Cincinnati as secretary, both original radical free silver men This com mittee, an well as tlie other commit tees, stood 2 to l for free silver. The temporary and the permanent chair men and all the ofllcersof the conven tion were radical silver men and the gold minority complained of their treatment. Temporary Chairman Taylor wits the Demo cratic candidate for secretary of State in 18W2, when I'resplent Cleveland got one electrialrvote from Ohio, lie baa been a radical silver leader in the Slate, while Oeneral A. ‘J.

For some moments he was hissed so that he could not proceed, hut lie finally moved that A. VV.

The people had made the issue and tiie ht. Louis conven tion had emphasized the issue by adopting a single gold standard. The lines were never so distinctly drawn. There was no longer any doubt about what would be done at Chicago on the issue. Ile urged all the advocates of the bimetallic standard of the father* and of the constitution to unite on one ticket as well as one issue. After the report of the committee ou credentials had been adopted with out opposition the following majority report on resolutions was presented: ‘‘Resolved, That we are unalterably opposed to the single gold staudard, and demand an immediate return to the constitutional money of gold and eilver by the restoration by this gov ernment, independent of other na tions, of the unrestricted coinage of both silver and gold into standard money at the ratio of 16 to l,and upon 4 1 . - .. » * 114.. ..I.tl.. prior to 1873; such silver coin to be a full legal tender, equally with gold coin, for all debts and dues, public and private.

The conven tion was called to order by Chairman Hinckley, who introduced Mayor John Boyd Thatcher of Albany aa tempor ary chairman In the course of his speech, on assuming the chair, he said: “Facing Chicago, we oonfess that the situation la not without peril. Clroumstanoes, some of which, per haps, might have been controlled —have created what we believe to be an erroneous financial faith, a faith which lias spread alarmingly in the West and Houth anil which has found adherents even in the East and North. It ia a faith which is not to be eradicated with the sword, but with the pen and tongue. With many it Is a panacea for commercial dis orders. Men hold these false views through a misconception of economic truths and through not understanding economic laws of the times and season of their application Not everything which Is signed aud sealed is valid. The stamp of tho government on a piece of silver can never make it worth more than the world ia wilting to give for It. If we are to accomplish our mission at Chicago we must go there to persuade erring brothers and not to quarrel with enemies.
