Senator Hill said he proposed to teA

reported by the committee state that , P
according to testimony before the Ben- cevi
ate , Kellogg was not chosen bytho vicc
legislature and that Spofford was. If ccai :
the first statement is correct , the second aicc
end must follow , for it is conceded ccT
that the lexwla'ure was elected in ccol
187G. The committee's report gives olw

was the revolution ? Simply the teAt

ever hear of a government overthrown

proof of the hghot ? description that

BIO BIOTS FEARED IN ENGLAND.
Special dispatch to The Bee.
LONDON , May 12 1 a. m. Affairs
in the Lancashire cotton districts have
assumed a very gloomy and threaten
ing aspect. A meeting between em
ployes and delegates of workers in
twenty-fire cotton-making towns , was
held yesterday in Manchester. The
men presented the case strongly , and
urged it with no little eloquence.
They gave figures to show that at their
present rate of wages , and with all
possible economy , they were barely
able to ieep body and soul together ,
and were unable to lay aside anything.
Employers , on the other hand , ex
hibited figures to show- that they were
now carrying on their business on a
very narrow margin , and that the five
per'cent. additional wages demanded
by ; the men would absorb more than
the profits that they were making ,
Discussion was protracted and warm ,
the men insisting that the figures
af the employers were misleading and
Fallacious. The masters finally told
the men that they would not grant
ihe advance demanded , end also in
formed them that if the weavers did
lot withdraw their notices to strike ,
hey would lock them out. The news
pread rapidly , and causes much ex-
itemenK Tlja situation b serious ,
ind. 13 regarded with much apprehon-
ion. Serious disturbances are feared
md it is thought likely that the riots
if last year will ba repeated at Pros-
on. A hundred additional police-
nen are ordered , and the military
lave been ordered to hold.themselves
n readiness for any emergency.
BOUGHT OFF BY PEERAGE.
Right Hon. Robt. Lowe , liberal
nember of parliament for London
University , has been created a peer ,
nth : the title of Viscount Sherbrook. l
t is understood that Mr. Gladstone Ia
ras somewhat puzzled as to what dis- IC
tosition to make of Mr. Lowe. Ho C
pit that it would not do to offer him o
cabinet position , as his record as r'
hancollor of the exchequer under o
Jr. Gladstone's former administra- .
ion , from December , 1868 , to Auga ,
ist , 1873 , when he resigned was Bj
tot rfuch as to commend him as att'able ti
nan for official responsibility under fi
he now government ; st 11 it was neef °
ssary to recognize , in some way , his h
ervicej to the liberal party , which '
tad b een heartily rendered and to no
mall degree effectual during the rer'
ent campaign. Thus , it came about E
hat Air. Gladstone recommended his a
lovation to a Beat in the house of
ords. "
THE NEW PEER.
Mr. Lowe is now G9 years of age , u
laving been born at Bingham , in a
811. Ho was educated at WinchesV
er , and at University college , of Oxb
ord , where he graduated in 1833. , E
Je began practice at the bar in 1842 , | w
nd immediately afterwards he went tl
Australia , where he spent about j a
line yean , attaining legislative honors
here. After his return to England
filled various official positions-in
onnection with the boards of trade
nd education. He entered parlia- :
lent for Kidderminster , in 1852 , and
as since represented Calne and Lon-
on University. Mr. Lowe was one "
the most strenuous opponents of
heTeform bill , and an edition of his
peechei on the subject appeared in
8C7. In the tame year ho was
reatfd an honorary L.L.D. of Edin-
urgh , and honorary D.C.L. of Ox-
jrd in 1870. His elevation to the
aerage necessitates a new election

NEW YOBE , May 12-1 a. m. The

illed with republican magnates , wire

dels still inoro importance.
SEEING THE LIONS.
The visitors attract a large share of tog ;

The secretary enjoyed this sngges-

the question with : "Well , Mr.
