creases the demand for labor, makes it
easier to obtain profitable employment,

THE COLONEL DOES NOI
ACKNOWLEDGE DEFEAT.
WILL CONTEST OWENS’ ELECTION.
Claims That Fraud Was Committed l>>
Ills Successful liival — Desha and
Other Friends of the Congressman
Sent Out to Secure Evidence of
Crooknedncis — Counter
Charges by Owens.
Lexington, Ky., Sept. IS.—Breckin
ridge will contest the result of Satur
day's primaries in which he was de
feated by W. C. Owens and has already
sent letters to the committeemen in
eight counties notifying them of his
purpose. His ground will he fraud in
Scott county. The Breckinridge men
have a majority of four in the district
committee, which declares officially
who is the nominee in the primary
returns. It is claimed by Breckin
ridge men that enough illegal votes
were cast Saturday to overcome the
small plurality of Owens. The com
mittee will meet Saturday of this
week at Frankfort to canvass the
votes.
Colonel Barney Tracy, president of
the Owens club, claims that he is in
no way afraid that Owens will lose
the race.
The Breckinridge people say that
Owens' lead is only 159, and that the
committee will give to Breckinridge
the nomination sure. Stress is laid
upon the fact that Owens’ county
(Scott) which gave him 1,200 plurali
ty, showed an increase'of Oil over tne
Democratic vote in 1892, and Franklin
county, which Owens carried by 521,
showed an increase of 091—almost 33%
per cent in each county. The oth
er six counties show from 5 to 20
per cent increase. Desha Breckinridge,
J. C. Rodgers and J. G. Bullock have
gone to Scott count}' to get affidavits
and to investigate the report that two
precinct polls were kept open an hour
longer than the law allows, and tiiis
will be one of the grounds of contest.
Some of the Breckinridge men
claim to have discovered numerous
clerical errors in their favor, reduc
ing Owen’s plurality to less than
eighty. In one precinct at Owen’s
W. C. OWENS, THE MAN WIIO TURNED
DOWN BRECKINRIDGE.
home they claim there were over
eighty fraudulent votes cast, or a
miscount to that extent. Desha Breck
inridge is at Georgetown, looking
after that precinct and he telegraphs
there are other frauds that will more
than overcome even the estimated
claims of the Owens men.
The impression is gaining grou nc!
here that the committee, which reg
istered Breckinridge’s will in all
matters preceding the primary, will
decide in his favor next Saturday.
In such event the minority of the
committee announce they will report
Owens as the nominee and both can
didates will fight to a finish in Novem
ber. The Republicans will be gov
erned largely by the result of the
outcome of the contest before the
Democratic district committee. The
Republicans polled 9,443 votes for
eongressman at the last election,
which is considerably more than
either Owens or Breckinridge polled
last Saturday.
In all the churches yesterday morn
ing the defeat of Breckinridge was
referred to in prayer or in sermon as
a matter for national thanksgiving.
The exact figures by which Breckin
ridge was defeated cannot be known
until the county committees canvass
the vote of their respective counties
to-day. At present all estimates are
based upon a mixture of official, semi
official, newspaper and telephonic re
turns and run from 950 to 550 in favor
of Owens.
The Breckinridge members of the
district committee came here yester
day with several county chairmen,
and the Owens men fear manipula
tion. They say that in Owen county
and in precincts of Woodford ami
Henry the figures hitherto returned
as official may be changed so as to in
crease Breckinridge's showing.
Tlie greatest surprise was the result
in Owen county. Settle’s home, where
Breckinridge ran nearly even with
Settle and Owens’ vote was ridicu
lously small. Charges are openly
made that Settle threw his home to
Breckinridge with the understanding
that he would be the latter’s political
legatee two years hence.

WANT JONES TO RESIGN.
Nevada Republicans Addre** a Sharp
Letter to the 1’opuliHt Convert.
CARSON, Nev., Sept. 18.—Senator
John P. Jones of Nevada lias been re
quested by the Republican state cen
tral committee to resign his seat in
the United States senate to which he
was elected by Republicans. This re
quest is made in a long letter, which
was drafted by Chairman Trennor
Coffin, and approved by the state cen
tral Committee at a meeting held in
this city. It exhaustively reviews
Senator Jones’ letter of August 20. to
the former chairman of the committee,
Enoch Strother, in which Jones an
nounced he had left the Republican
party to join the Populists, and se
verely criticises his course of action.
The main points of the letter are as
follows:
“You say you have not changed
your principles. Well and good. Then
it follows you have merely changed
your name and instead of calling
yourself a Republican, you will here
after term yourself a Populist. Do
the shining examples of Populist in
fluence (conspicuous among others,
that of your own colleague) with
which you are daily and hourly con
fronted in the senate justify the be
lief that such a change will add to
your prestige and power as a member
of that body? Do not the cases of
Sumner and Schurz,and Trumbull and
many others furnish the most painful
reminders that the day upon which a
brilliant and distinguished party
leader breaks away from the organ
ization in which he has won all his
fame marks the beginning of his po
litical decline? Can you reasonably
expect a different result? 15ut by
what mental process you arrive at the
conclusion the great ‘principle’ in
volved requires you to part company
with the Republican party of Nevada,
your letter entirely fails to disclose.
“You concede we are true to the
cause of silver. Then why do you
abandon us? If we are true to silver,
why does not devotion to that
‘principle’ of which you write so
eloquently require you to remain true
to us? Not only have we been true
to the cause of silver, but we have
been true to every other great princi
ple that you hold dear; and more than
all, we have been fidelity itself to
you. Then we ask again, why have
you abandoned us? The silver party
does not accept your name, while the
Populist party does not accept your
creed, so that upon every recognized
political principle you are literally
left without a party in the state of
Nevada. The publication of your let
ter has rot caused even a waver in
the ranks and no defection of any
leader, however great and distin
guished, will cause them to swerve a
hair's bieadth from what they believe
to be their duty.
“In conclusion, we desire to re
mind you that you were elected to
the senate as a Republican by the
Republican party. In the strictest
sense of the office it is a political one,
and the Republican party is entitled
to representation for the full term of
six years from March 4, 1891. As you
now announce you can no longer act
with the party that elected you,every
consideration of propriety and delica
cy requires you to resign. In the
name of the Republican party of Ne
vada, we respectfully request you to
do so. ”
NEW YORK REPUBLICANS.
Four Opponents to Morton at Work—
Thirteen Men After Second Place.
Saratoga, N. Y., Sept. IS.—Where
la: t night there were but two Re
publican candidates for the nomina
tion for governor and four for lieu
tenant governor, there were this
morning five for governor, thirteen
for lieutenant governor and four for
judge of the court of appeals. For
governor the candidates are ex-Vice
President Morton, Fassett, Woodford,
Butterfield and Russell.
The Morton adherents still claim
that their candidate will be nomi
nated on the first ballot but the bit
ter fight for lieutenant governorship,
it is thought by many, may result in
a free-for-all fight for governor and
the Fassett people this morning ac
cordingly claimed that the contest
would greatly aid them.
Popu]ist3 May Indorse Sapp.
Topeka, Kan., Sept. 18.—There is a
movement among the Populists of the
Third district to indorse F. W. Sapp,
the Democratic candidate for con
gress. In exchange for this indorse
ment Populists would expect to get
Democratic support in six or eight
legislative districts in that section.
The Democrats hold the balance of
power in these districts and have not
yet made nominations.
An Actor’s Ex-Father-in-Law Mad.
Sacramento, Cal., Sept. 18.—W. H.
Thompson, an actor in the Frohrnan
company, was attacked in the hav of
the Golden Eagle hotel by John
Greer, the father of Thompson’s
divorced wife. Greer drew a pistol
bat was prevented from using it. In
explanation of his attack, Greer said
that Thompson had mistreated his
wife, failed to provide for her and
then borrowed money from her pa
rents which he failed to repay.
Cherokee Kan., 3Iiners Strike.
Cherokee, Ivan., Sept. IS. —The
miners at the .1. If. Durkee coal com
pany's No. 4 shaft struck this morning
for sixty cents per ton for coal and
pay every two weeks. The men are
getting fifty-four cents and claim
that the company agreed to pay them
sixty cents from*Sept 1, but failed to
do so. A committee was appointed
to lay the matter before Superinten
dent Umble at Weir City.
General Miles to Go East.
Chicago, Sept. 18.—It was definitely
announced to-day that General Nelson
A Miles will be transferred to Gover
nor's island upon the retirement of
General Howard, November 8. It is
thought that General Huger will suc
ceed Miles as major general in the
command of the department of Mis
souri.
Many Democrats of the Ninth con
gressional district of Iowa are op
posed to the indorsement by their
party of General Weaver and want to
put up a candidate against him.

Records Go RHinuiering.
TF.r.itF. Haute, 1 n d., Sept. 17.—
World’s records went glimmering over
ti e Terre Haute track yesterday which
now holds all but two—the fastest
three heat pace and the fastest 2
year-old pacing race records. There
is hung up the fastest mile ever gone
by a horse in harness, Hubert J.,
2:01%, the miles of Nancy Hanks and
Alix, eacii in 2:01; tiie world’s record
for 4-year-old trotters, made by Fan
tasy in 2:0G; the fastest six heat race
ever gone by a 3-year-old; Expres
sive’s great race three weeks ago, the
fastest 2-year-old trotting record,
Oakland Baron's mile in 2:1G; Whirli
gig’s 3-year-old pacing record of 2:10;
the stallion pacing record of 2:03% by
John R. Gentry and the stallion
record of 2:01 by Joe I’atchen; the
marvelous mile by the 2-vear-old
pacer done by Carbonale in 2:00 and
bis previous record of 2:10 tied bv Di
rectly. That is why the town is wild
with enthusiasm.
Geers was up behind Robert J. and
at the second trial the word was
given. The clip was so fast that the
pacemaker fell behind, tiie first quar
ter being done in 30%' seconds. Up
the liili lie went at even a faster gait
and was at the half in 1:00%. Down
the third-quarter the unbeaten geld
ing came like a whirlwind; 29% sec
onds marked his lime for that quarter
and he was at the three-quarter pole
in 1:30%. Geers, with rein and voice,
gently reefed the gelding, who came
true and strong, never for a moment
wavering under the terrific trial, and
a moment later Geers landed Robert
J. under the wire in 2:01%.
Scarcely less marvelous was the
great performance of the 2-year-old
pacer Carbonate. A half hour before
liis only rival, Directly, had gone to
lower tiie mark made by Carbonate
on Wednesday. But the fast son of
Direct was unequal to the task and
could do no better than tie it. Then
came Carbonate, the beautiful gray
son of Superior. Jack Curry held the
reins over the youngster. Ed. Geers,
with Ferdinand, was the pacemaker.
The colt went away true and strong.
He reeled off the first quarter in :33,%
Up hill he went to the half at a 2:08
clip, doing the half in 1:0334. Still
faster was that speedy third quarter
and at a 2:06 gait he was at the third
quarter at 1:35. His tender
mouth caused him to falter for
a moment, when Curry took the
reins to reef him. It was but for a
moment and again he vva away and
landed the heat in 2:09 flat, lowering
the world’s record for 2-year-olds.
Again the crowd went wild and
cheered both Carbonate, his owner.
Major Dubois of Denver, and his
driver, Jack Curry, till it was tired
out.
There was great disappointment
over the Alix performance. With so
perfect a day and a track it was
thought the mare could make a new
world's record for trotters. But she
had tied the Nancy Hanks record on
Wednesday, and it was too much
to make a second effort the
same week. Besides she seemed nerv
ous. She did not get away strong, it
taking 31% seconds to do the first
quarter. When the half was reached
in 1:02% the crowd dropped back re
signedly. The down hill to the third
quarter was in the same time as in
tiie second. Then hope was aban
doned by the silent crowd. On she
came at a still slower rate, doing the
mile in 2:0434
G. A. R. SHORT ACE.
ladies* 1'ast National Treasurer Ac
cused of Misappropriating; Funds.
Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. IT.—By an
official announcement, .Mrs. Anna E.
Grubb of Camden, X. J., past na
tional treasurer of the ladies of the
G. A. R., is charged with misappro
priating the funds of the organiza
tion. This statement in the ladies’
meeting created a sensation un
equalled in the history of the order \
since its beginning. The proceedings
of the convention were secret.
One of the ladies, who is in high
standing, makes the statement that
Mrs. Grubb has defaulted to the i
amount of S500 and suit has been
brought against her bondsmen to
recover. Mrs. Grubb she says,
was re-elected to the oSiee
several times and had the confidence
of the ladies to such an extent that
the auditors ;n going over her books
considered it necessary only to make
a cursory examination. How long
the shortage lias existed is not stated,
but at the Washington encampment
the books were thought to be correct
and she was re-elected. At Indian
apolis in 1893 when the new treas
urer was elected. Mrs. Grubbs failed
to turn over some of the books an;l
investigation then discovered the
discrepancy.

Washington, Sept. 17.—The register
of the interior department, complete
to .July 1, shows that the total num
ber of employes then was 14,013. Of
these 4,042 were in the department
proper at Washington, 719 outside the
department proper, but in Washing
ton. and 9,282 outside the department
proper and not at Washington. Of
the latter class there were 730 in the
land service, 3,670 in the Indian ser
vice, 4.762 in the pension service and
108 miscellaneous. Of the total num
ber 452 were appointed by the presi
dent, 4,367 by the secretary and 9,224
by subordinates.
UNCLE SAM’S FINANCES.
Internal Ilcvenu'j Receipts Very Small
ami Customs Returns Only MoJerate.
Washington, Sept. 17.—The reve
nues of the government have fallen
almost 813,000,000 during the first
fourteen days of this month as com
pared with the last half of August.
The receipts from customs for the
first fourteen days of this month
amounted to $0,227,000 (in round num
bers) against 80,730,000 for the last
half of August, whijif the receipts
from internal revenue were but
32,203,000, compared with $20,634,000
for tlie latter half of August. The
loss is due to the enormous sums paid
on whisky withdrawn for consumption
just before the new tariff act increas
ing the tax from ninety cents
to $1.10 per gallon went into effect.
The receipts from internal revenue
for the first fourteen days of the
month dwindled to $2,927,000—about
$450,000 below the normal and were
not counterbalanced by an increase
in the receipts from customs due to
heavy importations under the reduc
ed rates immediately following the
enactment of the new law, the cusfoin
receipts increasing only about $3,000,
000. The receipts from internal rev
enue are now confined almost en
tirely to the tax paid on beer, cigars,
cigarettes and tobacco, and average
about $350,000 per day, while for July
and August, when so much whisky
was being withdrawn, they averaged
over $1,000,000 daily.
It is not expected the receipts from
the tax on alcoholic spirit; will reach
normal again before January 1, 1895.
This will have the effect, it is be
lieved, of keeping the receipls of the
treasury down to about two-thirds of
the normal, or in other words to
about $22,000,000 per month until Jan
uary 1. This estimate leaves out of
account any large increase in the im
portations arising from the operations
of the new tariff law. The expendi
tures have averaged about$24,090,000,
but without the sugar bounty, which
is now a thing of the past, they will
be reduced to about $31,000,000. For
tiie next four months it is estimated
that the receipts will be about $8S,
009,000 and the expenditures about
$124,000,000.
BUSINESS SITUATION.
Not Many Changes Noted Under Three
Weeks of the New Tariff Kill.
New York, Sept. IT.—K. O. Dun's
Weekly Review of Trade says: JSusi
ness lias met no setback this week
and continues larger than earlier in
August and larger than a year ago
directly after the panic. The country
has now passed nearly three weeks
under the tariff and all admit that
changes have been of less importance
as yet than was expected. If in some
brandies business has materially in
creased, it has gained a little or
has fallen off in others. Loss in
some directions is explained by
crop reports, for the most favorable
estimate of experts puts the loss of
corn at about 400,000,000 bushels,
whereas the government report is by
some interpreted as meaning a loss of
3,000,000,000 bushels. The opinion of
the trade does not favor the official
estimate, and the price lias not risen
at all during the week, though re
ceipts have been very small. Exports
have practically ceased, and all real
ize the shrinkage of 400,000,000
bushels is serious if it proves to be no
greater, since it must affect the prices
of meats for a year or more. Pork is
unchanged, but lard has risen 30 cents
per 100 pounds.
Nor are official reports encouraging
as to wheat. Western receipts in two
weeks have been 11,184,687 bushels,
against 10,074,701 last year, and At
lantic exports only 3,074,700, against
5,100,503 last year, and the price is
one-half cent lower. Considerable
injury is officially reported to cotton,
but few expect less than 8,500,000
bales, which is more than enough,
and the price is one-sixteenth lower.
PLUNGED ON WHEAT.
An Unknown California Magnate Stands
to Dose a Full Million Dollars.
San Fuaxcisco, Sept, 17.—Somebody
stands to lose a million dollars on
wheat, and San Francisco grain men
are wondering who it is. For months
L. F. McGlaughlin bought wheat for
some unknown speculator until he had
accumulated between 175,000 and 200,
000 tons for which lie paid an average
price of $1.20 per cental. At present
prices he cannot realize within thirty
live cents of as much as he paid
per cental for this immense quantity
of wheat. It is said by grain dealers
here that ex-Senator James G. Fair is
t'ne only man on the coast who has
enough ready money to back Mc
Glaughlin in such a big deal and it
now looks as if lie had made an error
in his calculations that will involve
the loss of $1,000,000. When McGlaugh
lin began to buy last winter wheat
was never before so low. Under the
stimulus of big purchases the price
went up but it soon fell and wheat is
now lower than ever. It is calculated
that there are at present between SO"),
000 and 900.000 ton-, of wheat in the
state that a market must be found for.
All this wheat must be shipped out
of the country and ship owners are
holding hack for high charters.
