WASHINGTON , July C. Commissioner
Sparks , of tha general land oliicc ; ia reported
to bo vvor'niog out the details of o land order
which will , if promulgated , create n sensation
among tha land grant railroad officials. It
la nothing lees than an overthrow of the in
demnity land system by the operation of
which it la charged that settlers have been
largely injured and railroads correspondingly
bsnefitted. Tha nature of previous bureau
ruling ? , which tha commissioner proposes tu
modify or rescind , can bo illustrated in the
case of the Atchlaon , Topeka & Santafee lall-
road , which last year wai compelled upon
the appeal of the state of Kan
sas to surrender ever S,000,000 , acrca
of land that had been set aiide for it ns an
indemnity of shortage in the lands granted to
that road. It ia cbaigod , for instance , that
the lands are unjustly withhold from settle
meet by allowing roada to file maps Mid then
to eeelc other and moro favorable routes. The
land over which the later maps are received
may have have a large number ef settler. *
therein. Many of those are threatened with
ouatrvon onn technicalit ° ° nothcr. and the
roads claim Indemnity tor all looses by the
acceptance of EettlemenU. Jt is now proposed
to rnako general In their application tha mien
laid down in the Knnaaa case referred to.
It ia understood that the Northern Pacific ia
especially aimed at ia the expected order.
This rcuto in Washington territory has sev
eral times been cuancod and modi lied , and a
largo number of settlers are interested in
roaia'.ing the corporation's claim to Indemnity.
The commissioner of the land oflice haa put
lila foot down on two moro things. Ho has
refused to give clerks passes to work in the
offices at night. Ho saya "They nro making
a good thing out of It , and a great deal of the
in formation given to attorney a and outsider a
ia perhaps such that tlio department should
receive pay for. They ehall not nny more de
vote their bat energies to making private
profit out ol the record * of thn office and half
perform the duties for which they are employed
'by ' the government. "
The administration is receiving moro credit
than it ia entitled to in the matter of the
Maxwell land grant. A land proclamation
haa been made by the land office to the effect
that this gigantic fraud has been discovered
by this administration ; and that proceedings
bavo been instituted to recover about
2,000,000 acres of which an Englith syndicate
lisa secured possession , and and to restore it
to the public domain. The fact ia that the
Maxwell land grant steal waa not discovered
by this administration , but by thelaat ad
ministration , and the legal proceeding which
are now pending were commenced by republi
cans , and Mr. Bentley , ex-commissioner of
ptnstons , has been for montba engaged in the
collection of evidence and in pri'paring to
prosecute thu guilty persons. The adminis
tration finds it necessary to retain Bentley to
prosecuta thia case on account of hia special
knowledge , The credit , therefore , of the pro
ceeding against the Maxwell land grant is
not due to Commissioner Sparks or to the
Cleveland administration ,
Ohio politicians say there is no doubt thaj
John Sherman is a candidate for the presi
dency as well na tor re-election to the senate
nnd his notion la that the one candidacy will
aid the other but thftt ho will need tc win the
aenatorship to realize hla expectations concerning
corning iho presidency ) that falling in cne he
will fall In bath. Foraker for governor ia
stronger than Sherman for senator. Ths
-fight will ba for the legislature. . The repub
lican managers declare that the signs are
favorable for them for a number of reasons
that the party is not distracted by aide issue ?
nnd that it is going Into tha fight with confi
dence on general principles.
Democrats who claim to know what has
been going on In the cabinet eay that thi
president sharply called the moro aggressivi
spoilsmen of the old school to order in th
cabinet tha other day , and aked thorn wha
foundation there waa for the numerous reports
ports , made apparently upon authority , tha
there waa to ba n clean eweep in the depart
. inenta on July I. The president ia reportei
to have been vigoroui , emphatic and blunt in
hU declarations , and to have notified th
cabinet that ho did not propnsn to luvo then
uhapa a policy for him ; that ha had outline
hla policy _ in repeated publication
and did not intend to change it , and that h
did not euro to have them embarrass hi
administration by attempting to Inaugural
u policy of their own , lie had tested that h
should choojo his own methods for the re
moval of olhco holders , and did not intend to
niter them. This story camea from a senator
who claims to have- heard it from a cabinet
dllicer. Whether it ia true or not it ia certain
that the porgrninmo which has been formed
in some of the departments for a clean sweep
was not carried out ,
Samuel J. Tildon and his friends are very
indignant over the appointmentment of ex-
Governor Noyea to bo government director of
the Union Pacific railroad , nn account of his
connection with the doctoral count in Florida
during the Hayea-Tilden contest of 1870 ,
Thia feeling la not confined to Tilden and hia
friends , but ia very generally shared by
democrats whoeo attention baa been
directui to tha matter. The re
port of the investigating committee
has been resaumctcd and that portion of the
report and the accompanying testimony which
rolatea to Gan , Woyea' participation in the
canvaas ot the electoral votes of Florida while
nerving as n visiting statesman has been laid
before the president. Some of the mere
promlnont democrats confidently assert that
' the uppoinlinent of ( ltd. Noyes will bo
t" revoked

KN. MO'COOK CAU.3 LAMAU'a ATTENTION TO
ItAKCHJtKN IN OKLAHOMA.
WASHINGTON , July f , Secretary Lamar
as received n letter from Gen , McCook , ex-
overnorof Colorado , relative to the power of
ho government to prevent the illegal occupa-
Ion of lands in the Indian Territory. Tha
vrltor asserts that the law declares that the
ecretary of the interior has full control of all
ndlan affairs under the laws , subject to di-
octlon by the president ; that certain con-
racts may be made by individuals with In-
iana relative to services in procuring the pay-
neat8 of clalrno , but thnt no authority exists
or making contracts of any other nature , and
f made they are null nnd void ) that no pur-
ha o , grant , lease or other conveyance of
auda or of any title or claim thereto
roai any Indian nation or
ribo of Indiana slnll bo cf any
altdity of law or equality unless the fame
hall bj made by treaty or convention ontotod
nto iniistunt to the constitution ; that only
he United Stole , ) can make anv contract with
my Inairm nation or trlbo affecting lands ,
vhstharby purcba'e , lease or othertsiDO , and
hat the United States can do DO only by
onnal agreorconr , and that the ptosidcnt may
imploy the military to rpmove trespassers
rom the Indian lands. Gen. McCJok eub-
itantiates the above points by citations fiom
, ho revised statutes , and declares that the
Jmtod States can mnko agreement1 ? re
ipocting Indian lands only with the Indians
beinselves nnd not whh third paitles , and
nly with the Indiana by agreement ratified
> y congress. Notwittatnndicg the positive
iroblbitlcms of the law against leasing or con-
Teynuco of lands by Indian tribes , Bubstan-
ially nil tha landH in the Indian teiritory Bit
upait for exclusive Indian occupation , Gen.
McCook enyp , are in the piiseseion cf white
nen under leases from the Indians , who had
no power to lease , and with the tacit icsog-
nition of the interior department , which ho
jelievcshad no power to recognize or assent
o any such lease or possoation. The lollow-
ng is given as a partial list of the
jartiea in occupation of tuch lands in
ho Cheyenne nnd Arapahoe reservations
n the Indian Territory and the amount of
_ and controlled by thorn nnd embraced In
, heir designated coundaries :
tIAJll'TON II. 1JEJIMAN , of Washington , D.
C. , formerly o member of the Kansas ttato
seriate , 65,000 acres.
KnwAUD I'KSTON , of Loavenworth , and
C. MALJ-ELI.Y , of Caldwell , Kansas ,

LEWIS L. Bliiccs , of Muscaton , Kansas ,
318,720 acres.
JESSK S. MoimisoN , of Darlington , Indiana ,
138,210 acres.
AN UNKNOWN LES3EK , dated October 35 ,
1883 , 714KO ( acres.
Total to the ubove parlies , 3,822 B20 acres.
Brigga , a member of the Kinsas state
senate from 1881 to 1883 , and E. M. Hewins
and others ia trust for the Cherokee atrip
ive stock association , a Kansas corporation ,
eased for five years from October 1st , 1883 ,
i.COO.OOO acres , being all the unoccupied lands
conveyed to the Pavynoes , Poncas , Ncz
L'erces , Otoen , Missooiis , Oaages , nnd Kansas -
sas Indians , The rental ia onu and two-
.hirda cents per aero. If the Indiana had
power to make leases and if the interior de-
mtinont had power to assent to.them what can
3e said of such conduct in the execution of a
mbllo trust eupposed to bo created f orthe _ pur
pose of protecting Indian rights and interests
is the acquiescence in a lease of lands for a
, erm of years at a rental which is nothing
more than nominal ? la that the way the gov
ernment of the United States should care for
ita wards ? If such leases wore legal , if au
thority existed to make them , they would still
bo obtaining from the Indian ward , with the
assent of their guardian , valuable property
righto and privileges for a pittance. If tlid
legality of the leases were doubtful they
should not bo permitted. Continuing hia ar
gument , declaring the illegality of the leases ,
Gen. McOook writes :
"Both under common law and the enact
ments of congress all parties other than In
diana occupying tbeso lands are trespassers.
The intention of the law , setting apart this
domain , was that it should bo enjoyed by the
Indians for the purpose of making thsni civil
ized homes , encouraging them in the habita of
industry and elevating and improving their
condition. The actual facta now are that in
stead of the Indiana possessing and enjoying
the beneQti designed for them thiir country
la over run with speculators and adventureta
of every degree , who have de-
spslled them of their property nnd
practically stquestrated their birth
right ? , destroying their opportunities of
self support and leaving them nothing for the
future while keeping them dependent , These
men vvho for the last three , years have enjoyed
covert protection and coldly insisted U.on |
official recognition of their cla'ms are in many
instances foreigners who owe no allegiance to
thla government , and In all cases evade every
duty and obligation which the laws impose
pen American cltirena ,
1 This part of Indian country to which I
ave called your attention is a country where
o C3 reigns and rapine dwells ; where un-
crupulous men ask the support of the govern
ment nnd army of the United States
o protect them in violating the law and
voiding any responsibility for their nets ,
'heso men are apparently the representatives
f great official and financial influoncp nnd
eem to have behind them an autocratic element -
ment mysterious aa It is powerful , which ban-
shea from the face of the land , they now
lold every American citizen who la not with
hernias trespassers. Their representations
o your department are not the prayers of the
veak appealing for protection but the de-
imnds of the strong who from a rips exper-
ence evidently believe that the future and the
last will be the same. "

rose this morning the national Hag hung at half-
mast on the city halll , county court house ,
Desert ! News oflice , Mormon tabernacle , office
of . John Taylor , residences of Mormon ; ,
church offices , and the Salt Lake theatre ,
The flag at the last named building was put
up at full mast na ns soon as Manager Itossi-
ter saw it , but thoto on the other buildings
hung limp against their masts. No one could
bo Jound to explain It. About noon United
States Marshal Ireland , 0. L. Uainca , Maj.
Wllkes , Capt. Kvana , the two last o.x-confod-
ates , went to the city hall and demanded that
the flag ba raised to full mast. Meeting with a
denial Evans started to raiao it hnn eU. The
door was ehut and locked by the ponce , who ,
with pistols and club' , made n rush for Evans ,
but quiet was restored by the United StutOH
m.irsbal , The city cfficiala said the 1th of
July was a day of mourning to them nnd
"this people , " whoso best men were in the
penitentiary by acts of officials subversive of
n" principles of law and liberty. They inti
mated that any man vvho undertook to dis
turb the ila at half-mast would bo shot. A
committee of cltizsns then wont into the
street wbero a crowd had cathcred , some of
whom wanted to raise the Hag at all hazards ,
but were warned by the police not to attempt
it on the pain of being "dropped. " In a pri
vate consultation with Unitud States Marshal
Ireland , the city marshal consented to
cither raise the flag at f ull mast or take it
down within thirty minutes. The cith
marshal then consulted with Mayor
Sharp , who was attending a Mormon priest
hood meeting , and within thirty minutes the
fl.ig was run down amid the jeers of the city
officials. A grand army of tbo republic post ,
celebrating near the city , were informe'l of
the difficulty and came in after the passing of
resolutions to run the flags in their proper
places. They met a crowd of angry citizens ,
and the crowd wanted to go and by force put
the flags whore they belonged , but the coun
sel of Gov. Murray prevailed. Finally a
committee of five was sent to Bee the mayor ,
and n few miuutoa later the flag at the city
hall was eent up to masthead. The citizens'
committee mads the same demand on Sheriff
Graesbeck , and he hoisted the flag at the
county court house from half to full mast
without demurring. The others were not
touched and still remain at half mast.-
NEW YOKK , July Tammany celebrated

gret that the pressure of official duties and
engagements prevent the acceptance of this

"Of the purposes sought to bo accomplished

trate , recantly referred to fn your note of
invitation , I am seriously mindful. Is order
that the hopes of the people may be fully

should yield a cordial support to all efforts on
the part of the admmiatration to restore a
pure , free and honest government. The
Btatement contained In your note that the
administration should so discharge all its
functions as to merit not only the approbation
of the people bnt at thn same time to insure a
harmonious party united in JelferBonian

my conception of the true purposes
and the mission of my party
convinces me that if the present administra

NEW YORK , July 6. Oen. Grant's city
rcaidcnco nnd hia cottage at Long Branch
hav o both been offered for sale though there-
seeing to bo no disposition to sacrifice them )
the prices demanded being up to their valuo.
The understanding 19 that the general , know
ing that half bis present income that arising
from his place on the army retired list will
stop at his death leaving as a certainty to hla
widow the product of the endowment fund
only , he is anxious to unload the real estate
by converting it into n eafo jloldlng invcst-
tnent. In this matter his counsellor ia
ox-Senator ChnfTee , whose advice aa .to the
Word business had it been promptly followed
would have paved n oit of tbo money lott
thoroln , The plan of Mrs. Grant Is to retire
into tome quiet homo niter the death of
her husband , while the other members
of the family will Realtor.
The reliance of Grant on the profits of his
book for hia widow's ' benefit bus frequently
been published. Another tource of income
has been developed , and in this , as in the his
tory , Murk Tw in is a business partner. The
bust made by the tculptor Gethaidt siuce
Grant's ' lllnfss , and so lavishly praised by
Charles Dudley Warner , the Hartford friend
and sometime literary co-laborer of Twain , is
being duplicated in bronze and terra cotta in
reducad sizfs , and salesmen will soon ba sent
throughout the land with it. This canvassing
will be done during the cummer before the
book agents go out to any great extent.
Grant did not at first like to have his bust
put out in that manner , but the counsel of his
wife prevailed. She la n woman of far grea'er
force nud potency in her family than i' , gener
ally known. Tin bust venture is bur own
slTiiir In connection with Twain.
There are rumors direct from Mount Mc-
Groflor of a slight abrnalon between Mrs.
Grant and the owners of that resort. The
offer of Dceommodation vvns on the basis of
plod gratuity , ISinkerJDrexel , n heavy share
holder , gave up his private cottage aud the
jiieala and service nro from the hotel. The
nim was to advertise Mount McGregor , which
is a beautiful but heretofore little known re
sort , Placards nnd hand bills have been
widely distributed in Saratoga and elsewhere ,
renouncing excursions over the company's
railroad to the top of the mountain , and con
taining the namu of Grant to catch the eye.
Mrs. Grant is gieatly annoyed by the staring
of visitors. The general long ago became used
to such impertinence and sits daily on
the verandah stoically enduring it in per
feet silence , But his wife frequently
seeks to have them driven off , as do the other
ladies of the household , but the management
naturally do not wish to shut out the
sight for which the tourists come , and they
decline to do more than to prevent actual in
trusion up m the immediate premises. All
the Grants ovcept Buck , who is farming in
Now Jersey , are daily grouped on the veran
dah , nnd fight-seers can approach close
enough to bo a decided nuisance to them.
They have been photographed re
peatedly by amateurs and professionals ,
using instantaneous apparatus. The hero
himself sits most of the time staring into
vacancy , oblivious ( > ? his surroundings ; but
now and then a mowjient among the specta
tors rouses him , auction lie will often lift hi ]
hat in acknowladguiunt of a salutation. The
sentinel who haj been mentioned aa on guard
against intruders is of little use , He is a
comical old crank. It is eo easy to got past
him that patent mec7iian'n3a nnd pefldlara
bava gained access to the house.
A burial place for Grant has not been se
lected. A discussion of topic Is distasteful
to the family and ( ho General himself 1ms
said nothing about it. There is a beautiful
cemetery called Oakwood in Troy about thir
ty miles from Mount McGregor , and a
the trustees have- resolved to offer a
pl t close by the one in which
lie the remains of Gen. Wool , a veteran cam-
mander In the war with Mexico , and under
whom Grant served as lieutenant , Wool's
monument is notable ai the largest single stone
ever quarried in America and the site over

KANSAS OROl'3 KBDUCED TO A NOMINAL QUAN
TUT ,
PAOLA , Kas , July 5. Another heavy rain
storm visited thU vicinity last night , continu
ing all through to-day. It seems general
throughout eastern ICanaas and Western Mis
souri , and this Is the sixth day of almost con
tinuous cold tains. The work of gathering
the wheat crop is brought toacamplete stand
still. Wheat in the stac IB has been ruined ,
and the estimates place the loss in Kansas
alone at l.OCO.COO . bushels besides the damage
to grain yet in thofields. Corn will prob
ably sustain little injury , but it backward
twenty days aa compared with
thu latest season for twenty ye are.
The state boards last estimate of 10,000,000
bushels of wheat was based on alleged im
provement in south-eastern Kansas which
was expected to offset the disasters in the
great wheat belt of the center. This estimate
took no account of the weok'n storm and
Immense damage to stacked wheat. In the
more favorable locality further west there is
no wheat to ba injured by the storms or any
thing else ,
Feara are now entertained that potatoes
will rot in the ground. Minor crops will
suffer in like ratio , It Is not drouth , but too
much rain and the cold that injure Kansas
this year.
The eetlmate of the wheat yield in Kansas
by Secretary 81ms , of the Bate board of agri
culture , sent from Topeka Friday , was
10,200,000 , bushels Instead of 12,000,000 as
published in all the papers , The mistake
occurred in transmission.

Maxoy Cobb arrived hero on Monday from
New York In a special car , nccompnnlod by
his driver ncd trainer , Phallus naa put in
condition at the Cleveland driving park by
IMwin Hither , who linn driven him over dnco
hia initial race nnd who la also the driver of
Jiiy-Kye-Seo. Phftllas vvaa not forward for
the time of year , but owing to the lateness of
the season ho has not , until quite recently
bee Riven hard work He was exercised and
speeded < a mile inMO nearly two weeks aero
and in the mcantimo has shown some swift
quarters. Maxey Cobb h&a boon taking his
work at the Fleetwood course in New York.
Ho was reported to bo in excellent condition ,
It was currently reported that ho had shown
a speed ] considerably better than the record
given , to the public ,
Phallas is a dark brown stallion by Dictator ,
out or ] 5atsy Trotwood , by Olark Chief , son of
Mambrino Chief. lie is eljjht years old , IDf
hands high , and strong but uoiuly built. 11 u
was brsd in Lexington , Ky. , by Col. llichard
West , and sold when two years of ago to J. I.
Case , the present owner. The sum paid for
him did not exceed SoOO. It was not until
sometlmo subsequent that ho gave evidence of
attaining : great speed. His first education
was civ-en at agricultural fair races in Illinois ,
and his first noted r.ico , and ono In which he
did Eome excellent trotting , was at the
Cleveland driving park In 1SS3 , lie wai
brought to the park early in tbo season and
kfyed up forhisdeuuton July 5 , going against
Hotspur GirlNettie ; R , , May .Bird , Index
and Mambrino Clay , winning the lust three
beats of a five mile race in L':23J : , 2:23i : and
2l8i. : His mile in 2:184 : : was up to
thn time the best ever made in an Initial
raci . Soon after this race ho was taken o'
Ifleetwood park , in Now York , and there hemet
mel Majolica. Both horses were then jest
beginning to attract attention , nnd when the
arrangements were perfected to have the now
candidates for tuif honors meet on Heotwood
course the opinion prevailed that Phallas
would bo an easy winner. Heavy odds in fa
vor of Phallas marked the betting , but Ma
jolica was in boa condition and gave the
country a surprise by leading m the race , with
best mile in 2:17 : : } . Later , in Chicago , the
two lior&es met again. Tha race occurred In
that city Jjily 19 for a best three out of five.
Th betting was extravagantly In favor of Ma
jolica. But this meeting had another surprise
in i

between these two famous horses , After his
victory over Majolica , Pballas was brought to
the Cleveland park and trotted with
Duquesno aud Index , taking the last throe
railed : in 2.1JJ , 2.214 and 2.17i ; At that time
the record of 2.15J had never been beaten ,
except < by Smuggler , who hid a record of 2 16.
I3 rly in the season of 1884 he ivas again
brought to the Cleveland park to ba tutored
for the course , and his first race of that season
vva with Clemmle G. and three others in
Chicago. Phallas bore away the honors of
the occasion with a time of 2.13 for the
fourth heat. The remainder of the season he
spent on an exhibition tour , but did not lowar
his record ,
Maxey ] Cobb is a handsomely built bay with
white ; hind ankles , l-'ow horses on the tuif
have such symmetry of form as the etalllon
champion. : Ho ia sixteen hands In height.
Ho ( was tired by Happy Malium and his dam
wai Fanny Jennings , by Prince Nebo. He
wnwo foaled in Philadelphia , but when quite
young was sold for a small sum and shipped
to Nebraska , where he was given his first
schooling for the turf , Later he did some
rural racing on the tracks of that utato , but
showed no notable speed until the spring of
1883 , when he wai brought to the Cleveland
park nnd underwent preparations for the
campaign. The first race In which ho figured
came otf at the Cleveland pork , July 1. A a
field of eleven horses were competing.
George V , led In the first boat in
2.21i , but WUB left in the lecond ,
third and fourth by Maxey Cobb , with a time
of 2:20J : , 2:23 : and 2:2l , Ho then did the cir
cuit : to the closing half of the season with un
certain success , scoring about nn equal num
ber of victories and defeats. Last season he
was "edged up" in excellent shape and trctted
a few races with unbroken success , Late In
the fall he was driven ngulnet time and in the
laUor part of September trotted a mile at
Providence In the2:13i : , which Is the fastest
mlle over made by a stallion. Ho was given
Ills early training by Edward Pyle , after
which J. W , Paige , the first driver of Kama ,
traveled him in Nebraska until his present
owner , Isadore Cohnfeld , of Now York , pur
chased him In 1881 , and "Honest John Mur

CHICAGO , July D. To-day at tha regular
Sutdny meeting of socialist on tha lake front
the burden of each spoakor'a elorjucnco was
the itrlko. The crowd waa unusually large ,
and the utterances unueually aanqulnnry.
The second on the list of oraters waa John

others who hated law and order to
rise up burn and kill. ' , How iraoy of you
have guna aud pistole ? " ho demanded fiercely.
"I have and I , " vvero answered from all
J jiolnta | of the crowd. "Then get them ready , "
ho resumed , with an effort toward deadly nig-
nllicance. "In a few day ? , perhaps tomorrow
row , wo may want to two thorn. " The
speaker pointed out ainid great applause how
himself and hoarera oould march
down the tionlovardfl and highways of the
purse proud and aristocratic , and swoop
them ; from the face of tha earth. Ho con
cluded by naming prominent citizoas nnd cap-
itnlltta as enemies of mankind , nnd with otlur
speakers of the occasion , condemned the
strikers on account cf their leniency with
tliplT oppressors.
The strikers had learned from the morning
papers of the company's refusal to arbitrate
and teemed generally , an they discussed the
matter dining the day. to anticipate n
struggle ; in the future to which that of .Friday
would : bo Insignl Scant , There was no talk of
backing down , and aa yet no boiat-
emus throats Indulged in. Few had
any doubt that the company , aided
bvl the police , would put tlio cara on the track
Monday inoinmg , nnd to decide \vliatccurso _
to pursue n meeting' vvns called for to-niRht.
Tlio mayor in n proclamation issued to

closes with an earnest appeal to citizens to
aidA in preserving the good name of Chicago.
About two hundred police have been de
tailed to look out for the company's righta in
the morning aud it is understood the first car
starts from the barna at U o'clock. Latent
reports from the meeting- strikers now in
progress are to the effect that they have sim
ply reaffirmed the action of Saturday night
namely their willingneea to arbitrate.

A correspondent hns just returned from a
four days' stay in Murica , which h i boon for
the last two weeks the most terribly cholera-
stricken city of Spain. Murlct city , according -
ing to the last census , h s a population of
nearly ' 10.0CO , nnd the biiburbs ( VJ.OOO more.
Thiity thousand porponi have fled from the

stricken sick nnd dead nro carried through the
str.-pts is ono of thu commonest eights.
Deaths : have bscome BO frequent that the toll-
intr of the church bolls , usual them on such
events , has been forbidden. The cholera
has attackud 3.211 poaaons in twenty-four
days and of theao 3,1500 bodies have been.
already buried. Of the full nomral population
tloi ol nearly 100,000 , people , ono pewon in
thirty has already had the cholera , and ono
person in each soventy-livn of the population
baa been buried within three weeks. Under
the most favorable conditions 1,000 moro
doitlm are expected by physicians before
fall .
fall.Startling
Startling i incidents abound in such a city. A
vile smell came fiom ono of the many closed
houses. By order of the authorities the doors
were forced , nud then the rotting bodies of ita
inhabitants were found. They had apparently
died of malignant cholera after closing the
house , and so suddenly thftt they had been
unable to summon aid. It is thought the
cholera will extend throughout a greater portion
tioi of Spain. It may last until late in the
fall , and it Is not improbable that cholera caeca
may occur next year.
Tha diseasa eeema to follow the course of
the river. It spreads always below the place
firs infected. Thus the head waters of the
T i are being now infected. The cholera
may be expected to pasa all quarantines and
cuter Portugal. Cholera Bpreuds rapidly with
great violence along the course of a river.
By land its spread ia more uncertain and
slow , depending largely upon personal con
tact between the inhabitants of neighboring
towns. A man of average health , not given to
excesses , using only boilud water for even eucb.
purposes as crushing the teeth , who eats no
gieen uncooked food need not fear cholera m
the least. Anything which reduces vitality
even temporarily may at once load to cholera ,
Women have more to fear from cholera than
men do , but with proper precautions there is
little danger , Extreme fear of the disease
often leads to an attack of cholera ,
Dr , ITorran's inoculation will neb play an im
portant part in this epidemic however great
its part may ba In the next one. Cholera
germs live for n uncertain period. They are
known to live for mouths and yet retain suf
ficient vitality to cause cholera in persons ex
posed to them. Great care roeardinc' Infected
letters and clothing ia therefore neoaneary.
Valencia oranges aud Malaga raisina of this
year's crop may carry cliolora germ to con
sumers , even in distant countries. They are
therefore among the things not to oat.

LONDON. July ! . The rf suits of the pre
liminary election which took plate during the
past week to fill the vacancies caused by tbo
change in the ministry , have rather alarmed
tha liberals. They were beginning to feel
sure of the easy victory In the coming general
election , but have no moro than held their
own in the special pollings , and have not in
creased their majorities in such hotly contest-
rd boroughs as WakoOeld and Woodstock.
Liberal election agents In many precincts
have sent in discouraging reports about tho.
outlook. They say the agricultural votes are
falling away from the liberal Interest nnd that
laborers appear indifferent about taking
advantage of the England Franchise ,
these ngents further declare that in the most ,
rural regions cf Kngland both agricultural
laborers and workinginon this ye.'ir rtipeclally
are under tbo influence or control of local ,
tqulroa and parsons. This Is accounted for
by the fact that tlmea have for a long period
past been unusually hard and that these clasi
of voters are under more ordinary obligations
to their employers nnd patrons , the iqnlres ,
parsons , farmers and local officials , nearly all
of whom are conservatives , and with bright
party prospects before them are exsrting all
their iniluenca to retain coutrol of British ,
political alfairs ,
