Dahlman , chairman of the demo cratic branch of the fusion party , tills after noon said that a protest would bo filed against the use ; of the title "national demo crat" on the ticket.

On the other hand he holds that the silver republicans have a right to use their title on the ticket for the reason that they claim to be a newly organ- l/cid r irty.

HOLDS CITY COXTHOI.S STHI3ETS. flush with the IMillnian Company Seeiiix l.lki-ly. CHICAGO , Oct. 1. The city of Chicago will probably take possession of the streets 1& the town of Pullman. Corporation Counsel Thornton has decided that the public has the same right In , on and under these streets that It has with the other public thorough fares In the city. This decision Is expected to give Chicago possession of between t6n and fifteen miles of Improved streets In Pullman. The opinion has Just been sent to Com missioner of Public Works McGaniN It Is positive , definite and brief. It holds that an actual platting or written dedication to the public Is not necessary to make the streets public property , for the reason that the Pullman company has treated them as public thoroughfares for many years , and public accommodation and private rights would bo materially affected by a denial or Interruption of the continued enjoyment of these privileges. A legal fight with the Pullman Palace Car company and the Pullman Land association , both of which are Interested , may ensue. The company officials claim the solo Jurisdic tion over the streets , and up to the present have not had their rights disputed seriously. Commissioner McGann a few weeks ago took up the question of authority and It was ott his request that the opinion was given. Jurisdiction over the streets In cludes the right of the city to grant privileges for gas , electric light , street rail ways , etc. , along and under them. On these points the clash between the city and the Pullman authorities will come when an at tempt Is made to assume the rights de clared to belong to the city.

Yesterday forty- one of them were allowed to pass through the custom house and an additional 100 went Into quarantine on Wednesday nlg'jt from the steamer Doric and are expected to be released today. These laborers have nearly all come tn.on collficates Issued in Macao , a dependency of Portugal , and which , under an opinion of the attorney gen eral of the United States , delivered May 20 , 1890 , must bo recognized as prlma fucle evidence of the right of their bearers to land. The opinion was In effect that the Ilrltish registrar general at Hong Kong , the commissioner of customs at Canton , and the officer of any foreign country possessing de pendencies In China should bo recognized as competent to sign such documents.

Oct. I'Afho first meet- InR of the cabinet since tud return of the president from Massachusetts , was held today and was attended by every inembor except Secretary Gage , who Is not In Washington. Porclgci affairs occupied the greater portion of the time , though the prosecution of the government's case against the Union Pa- clflo also came In for a good deal of consid eration. Indeed It Is said the only action of the cabinet today was In the direction of closing up this Issue and It can bo stated that the- details of the plans of the govern ment have been arranged at last. Thn Spanish cabinet crisis attracted great attention and was discussed at some length. Vor some reason Minister Woodford has still left hla government unofllclalty advised of the recent happenings In Madrid and nothing has been heard from him since his Interview with the dulio of Tctunn. There seems to bo a general belief among the members of the cabinet that the Madrid crisis , If not making for our good , cannot bo expected to Injure our relations with Spain. This belief Is based upon the Idea that If n. conservative succeeds to the Az- carratja ministry the worst that can happen will be a continuation of the present line of policy , for Spuln > Is too near an end of her financial resources to put tprth more strenu ous elforts to subdue the Cubans. On the other hand It Is believed that a liberal min istry will almost certainly offer good oppor tunity for bringing the present war to an end. * The conditions In Hawaii , as revealed by Admiral lleardslce , were talked of , and with evident satisfaction the catilnet received the admiral's ctatcincnt , that In all his stay In Hawaiian waters his relations with the Japa nese officials on shore and on the crulner Nanalwa were of the most pleasant nature. In no case had tho-e been the slightest exhi bition of a purpose on the part of the Japa nese commander to attempt a coup , and there wcro constant exchanges between the olll- cers of the Nanalwa and the United States war ships.
