The republican senators expect to see the
president issue another political message be
fore the end of the campaign. The ono on
the fisheries treaty Is regarded but u fore
taste of what is to come. The next ono Is ex
pected to deal with the tariff- and to bo highly
sensational , intended to influence the voters
in other sections. The message on the
fisheries treaty was expected to affect the
foreign bom voters in Now York more espe
cially , while the message on the tariff will bo
directed spoullleally toward the doubtful
states In oveiy section. The president , up
to this time , has given no appreciable atten
tion to tin ce or four of the southern states ,
which the republicans regard ns extremely
doubtful ) and the next message may huvo a
little ginger in it for the southern section.
The president Is among those of his party
who believe that there Is n good lighting
chance for the democrats In Michigan , Iowa ,
and Minnesota. Ho regards the outlook in
Now York us very doubtful , but thinks his
libhcrles message will stiffen up the pros
pects there.
The work of the force of employes in the
pension ofllcc In the compilation of n pam
phlet to stiffen up the president's vetoes of
pension bills , is Intended to "copper" the
soldier vote , and counteract the influence be
ing exerted by the Grand Army of the Uo-
publlc , the Loyal Legion , the Sons of Veter
ans , and other societies now denouncing the
president's policy in relation to general and
private pensions. It will bo remembered
that about two months ago the president took
occasion , in vetoing a private pension bill , to
answer Senator Davis' observations on the
subject of pension vetoes , when the latter re
ported from the committee on pensions to the
senate a bill which was vetoed , and which
was recommended for adoption over the
president's disapproval. The chief executive
lias-shown , on a number of occasions , that
helms not only tlio disposition but a good
deal of the ability to strike back at congress ,
and to contend for the position he occupies.
The democrats In both houses have been inti
mating broadly for several days that the next
message of the president's will bo "a ripper , "
and that ho will answer every material charge
brought against him In his relation to legis
lation which ho has fought in congress , and
that it will contain many sensational ele
ments.
rii : > KHAI , MONEY IN NCIHIASKA AND IOWA BANKS
III view of the proposed investigation made
by Representative Mason , of Chicago , into
the charge that the administration has loaned
large sums of money to national bunks with
the understanding that they would make lib
eral contii'uutions to the campaign fund , it is
interesting to know where this money has
been placed. Altogether the direct loans to
banks amount to ? .V,07S,000. while there was
on deposit in national banks in addition to
this on the 1st of August $54,175,055. The
latter sum was deposited by ledcral officers
collectors of internal levcnuo , customs du
ties , etc. The two heads under which this
money is held by thn various national banks
are "public monies held by banks , " which
means deposited by federal ofilcers , and
"money held by United Stales depositories , "
which means that the money is loaned to the
banks by the government xipon the
security of United States bonds , and
it has no connection whatever with
the regular circulation of national
banks , which is based on deposits with the
United States treasurer. In Nebraska and
Iowa the government's money is held in
national banks ns follows : Citizens' National
Hank of Davenport , Iowa- deposits from
federal ofilcers , J40.0489 ( . ; loans from the
government , 50,000 ; First National Hank of
Omaha deposits from federal ofilcers. 1171-
587.23 ; loans from the government , $175,000 ;
Merchants' National Hank of Omaha deposits -
posits from federal ofilcers , J200.000 ; loans
from the government , $210,000 ; Nebraska
National bank , Ouialia deposits from federal
oftlcers , 5188,071.33 : loans from the govern
ment , (180,000 ; Omaha National bank ,
Omaha deposits from federal offlcers , $150-
0.19.04 ; loans from the government , $150,000 ;
United States National bank deposits from

ernment , $200,000.

A bill was introduced in the senate to-day
by Senator Fnrwell of Chicago which will beef
of especial interest to every inland port of

mit Impoitcrs to divide imports when they

a part of the goods in bond on the basis of
the original bill of lading and inventory
without the issuance of additional docu
ments , the duties to bo paid at the port of
destination and to permit the importer to re
ceive the goods which arc not shipped to any
inland port or to send them into a warehouse
for the usual detention.

HARRISON AT PDT-IN-BAY ,
A Memorable Dny For the Residents
of the Little Island.
THOUSANDSGREETTHE GENERAL
Whoso Knjoytncnt of tlic Occasion
Would Jlnvo Itccu Complete
Were It Not For the Autu-
Fiend.
Harrison' * Island Host * .
N'llAT , O. , August 31. This was a
memorable day for the 500 residents of Put
in-Hay Island. Early this morning the
islanders began to make preparations for the
reception and entertainment of their dls-
ttngulslicd puests , General Harrison and
his party. Hnuucrs were Hung to the brcc7C ,
Hags raised and houses and cottages decor
ated in honor of the expected guests. 13y 10
o'clock the residents of the neighboring
Island's began to arrive dressed In holiday
attire , and ns their little yachts sailed Into
the historic bay , they were welcomed by the
native residents anil others. The weather In
the forenoon was delightful. The brcezo
was cooling , yet not sufllcient to awaken the
white caps. The islanders anticipated a
crowd of several thousand from the neigh
boring cities , but none of the numerous
steamboats running from Cleveland , San-
dusky , Toledo and Detroit were loaded to
their full capacity. The first boats to arrive
from the mainland were the City of San-
dusky and U. F. Ferris from Saudusky ,
bringing several hundred passengers. At
noon the steamer M. R. Wnltc ,
from Toledo , landed some four hundred ex
cursionists. On the shore of the bay , look
ing southward , the islanders had planted a
small cannon , and as each boat rounded the
curve entering the famous bay it belched
forth Its greeting to the visitors. About 1
o'clock the magnificent steamer City of De
troit , Captain McLuchlnn. from Cleveland ,
arrived , followed by the Pearl , from the
same city. The last boat to enter the bay
was the Alaska , with 300 excursionists from
Detroit. The crowd , numbering perhaps
3,000 , dispersed itself through the grove and
awaited the arrival of the guest of the day.
Shortly after 3 o'clock a small steam yacht
was seen to enter the bay from the direction
of tlio Toledo club house , on Middle Hass
island. As she neared the landing the crowd
gathered along the shore and a cheer went
up as tlio yacht turned In , showing the stars
and stripes floating from her stern. It proved
to bo the steam yacht Ganges. Near the
prow of the boat sut General Harrison ,
wearing a soft derby hat and looking in ex
cellent health and spirits. Hesido
him were ex-Governor Charles Fos
ter , Judge Cummlngs of Toledo ,
and numerous other , friends. Mrs.
Harrison , Mrs. Judge Woods and daughter ,
the wife and daughter of Governor Foster ,
and n dozen others also accompanied the
general. They were met at thu pier by John
Grown , Jr. , son of the famous hero of Ossa-
wattomlc , and press representatives , and
were escorted through the crowd to n pavil
ion in an adjacent grove. The pavilion had
been tastefully decorated foe the qccasion.
In the center was a round table draped with
bunting , on which stood n beautiful floral
pyramid of oleanders , roses and daisies , from
the top of which lloatcd u miniature flag.
Arriving at the pavilion the ceremonies
were of an informal character. John Urown
arose and briefly announced that ex-Gover
nor Charles Foster would act as master ol
ceremonies , and Introduced that gentleman ,
who spoke as follows :
"Follow CitUens : General Harrison came
to Middle Has for the purpose of rest and
quiet. At the solicitation of a number of
people of this section of the country , a great
number I might say , ho has kindly consented
to give a reception hero to-day upon ono con
dition , that ho was not to make a speech
Now , fellow citizens , I have the very great
pleasure of presenting to you General Hcnja-
min Harrison , the republican candidate for
the presidency. " ( Applause ] .
As Governor Foster concluded his remarks
General Harrison arose midst a shout of wol
coma from the large audience , and , tossiiif
bis hat on the table , ho mounted the bean
seat surrounding the pavilion , and , looking
fresh and vigorous , yet with his usual palloi
of countenance , spoke as follows :
"My friends : I have found Governor Fester
tor to bo a very agreeable and thoughtfu
host , and 1 find him to-day to bo the most
ngrcablo master of ceremonies who has ever
attended ino at a public reception. I like his
announcement of the condition under whicl
I appear before you to-day. I never enjoy i
bamjuct when my name is on the programme
for a toast. I do not therefore intend to
speak to you about any of those question !
that are engaging your minds ns citizens o
this prosperous and mighty and happy nn
tion. Wo are hero to-day as Americans
proud of the flag tnat symbolizes this grca
union of states ; proud of the Btorj
that has been written by our futh
ers in council and in war ; in the
formation and defense and perpetuation o
our magnificent institution , Wo are hero in
the immediate neighborhood of ono of the
great historic events that was among the
most potential agencies in the settlement o
our title to a great noithwcst. If we hac
stood where wo stand to-day wo could hav
heard the guns of Perry's ( loot. If wo ha (
stood where wo stand to-day wo could have
welcomed him as ho came a victor into Put
in-Hay. These institutions of ours are in ou
own keeping now , and not only our fundu
mental institutions but the fume that ha
been won by those who have gone before ,
may therefore properly say to-day that n
pauipaigu like this demands the thoughtfu
consideration of every American voter. Wo
are prosperous. [ Cheers. ] The story o
our prosperity , of our development in wealth
of our achievements in finance as u natioi
since and during the war is almost as nota
bio and almost as admirable ns thu
of our achievements Inarms. Thonssouiblin
of our revenue Is more difficult than the m
ecinbllng of armies , and yet wo wcio ublo t
maintain those armies in the field and hav
been able since not only to bear up the grca
load of debt but to pay it off until that whicl
was once thought to bo a burden that wouh
crush our Industries has coino to be in ou
hands but as a ball that a boy tosses in plaj
IChcers ] , And wo are confronted to-day
with n question , not how we shall get th
money but how wo shall wisely stop some o
these avenues by which the wealth is pour
ing into our public treasury.
"It in an easier problem than that whicl
confronted the great war secretary in whos
name you so delight , how to raise revenue t
prosecute the war successfully. It will b
wisely solved , and I may not als
the fact that , notwithstanding this complain
of excessive revenue , theio uro some wh
. 8 i'L'8t tUat they i\TO DOV "VlQ ailequntol j
mCUou pupU'u" ir.d'iKuStlon against excessive
taxation because they cannot disclose to the
people when or how they uro paying the
taxes. [ Applause ] It U taken , they say , so
directly and so subtloy that these our plain
people don't know that they are paying
them at all. [ Applause ]
"Hut I must not cross this line of party
discussion. I have had a pleasant stay In
this most delightful neighborhood and I can
not let this public opportunity pass without
expressing for myself and for Mrs. Harrison
our grateful appreciation of the kind and
thoughtful hospitality which has been shown
us by the people of these islands. " [ Pro-
longucd applause ]
At the conclusion of the general's address
he took a position on the steps of the imvlllon
and Governor Foster announced that ull who
wished to meet General Harrison personally
could have the opportunity. The crowd
passed before the general , shaking his hand
vigorously. At the opposite end of
the steps utood Governor Foster ,
and many also stopped and shook
bis hand. General Harrison exhibited his
exuberance of gplrita by the cordiality of his
greeting. Among the tirst to tu'iic his hand
was lull , portly woman , who grabbed hla
and , nnd hanging on with o look of regret ,
aid : "General , 1 only wish I was n man BO
could vote for you. " The taciturn candl-
ate rc9 | > omlcd with a oniUe nnd a look of
'rntltude , and an extra .squeeze . of her big
generous hand. Toward the last of the line
nmo nn old lady bending under the weight
f fully seventy years , nnd who snrllly ue-
larcd to the general ns ho grasped her
vrltikled hand , that she had voted twice for
ils grandfather. As the crowd bewail to
hln out tlio autograph fiend made his np-
lenrancc and requested the general's slgna-
ure , Immediately every one nrcnind seemed
> ossesscd of the same desire , and cards were
hovcd at the general faster than he could
vritc. At this juncture warning whistles
caino from several steamboats to the gen-
nil's ' relief , and set the crowd clattering
tell mell for their respective boats , and by
o'clock the visitors had nearly all taken
their departure.
Thnrmnn'H Dales.
Coi.u.Miius , August 31. Judge Thurmnn
expected to make dates of his New York
ncetlngs for some time during the latter
urt of September , but ho has been prevailed
upon to yield to the deslio of the national
committee and will leave for Now York on
Septembers next Wednesday. On the even-
ng of the Cth ho will bo present at n demo
cratic meeting to bo held In Madison square.at
vhich ho will bo the principal speaker. This
iieeting will bo under the direction of the
national committee , and efforts ure making to
uivo an immense rally of democratic hosts ,
the gathering to surpass any of the political
fcmonstrations of the year. The party will
cave Ne\v York on the return trip September
7 , and arrive nt Columbus on the Saturday or
Sunday following , so that Thurmancan bo In
Columbus during the week of the national
encampment of the Grand Army. Already
Judge Thurman has received a largo number
of letters fiom old soldiers , notifying him
: hut they will call to pay their respects dur
ing the week , nnd this fact no doubt
has much to do with bis brief
stay in the cast nt this time. Judge
Thurman , not leaving here until Wednesday ,
will bo able to bo present ut the opening of
the centennial exposition on Tuesday next.
The intention is to arrange the trip in such a
way as to avoid the crowds as much as possi
ble , but the judge will hardly bo able to keep
from making several speeches along the
road. The details for the journey have not
jet been completed , the route not having
been decided upon , nor is it known who will
accompany the judge.
Chairman Charles L. Jcwctt , of the demo
cratic state executive committee of Indiana ,
called on Judge Thurman last night with a
view to securing some definite information
ns to the latter's proposed trip through In
diana , but there will bo nothing definite as to
the date decided upon until after the trip to
New York. A delegation from Indianapolis
will call ou Thurman at 2 p. m. to-morrow
and extend a formal invitation to him to
visit that city. _
Illalno Discusses the Trust.
DOVER , Me. , August 31. Hon. James G.
Blaine spoke at Foxcraft tills afternoon. In
opening ho proceeded at once to a consider
ation of trusts , charging that they flourished
to a greater oxtcntundcrthofrco trade policy
of England than under the protective policy
of the United States. Ho cited authorities
for his statement. Of American trustsho said
that there is not one among them nil that
derives its being , owes Its organization , or

comes under the patronngo of the national
government. Every one derives whutovef
sanction of law It possesses from state govern
ments generally ono state , but sometimes
several. The president , therefore , certainly
should have kuown-when bo arraigned trusts
in his message to congress that congress
could not dissolve them \fl\cn their charters
were from state legislatures or their organi
zation under state law. It had been
confessed by the democratic house
ways and means committee , by Chairman
Mills , and by every man that stood as nn ad
vocate of free trade , that'trusts ' bad no pos
sible legal connection with the tariff. Tlio
president's charge that trusts bad their
origin in the protective tariff has not a foot
of ground to stand upon , and was contra
dicted in every line of the free trade experi
ence the speaker had quoted from England.
Now , when all chaiivjo to investigate the al
leged bribery by which a certain United
States senator , connected with ono of the
largest trusts , was charged with obtaining
his scat is past and gone , democratic
papers can tnako a loud bowl about trusts.
There was no democratic opportunity to got
the true inwardness of trusts , but they
shrank from an investigation of bribery , nnd
both outside nnd insldo thu administration
they were determined to have no Investiga
tion. Trusts have no place In the national
campaign. They nro fatato issues , nnd the
republicans of Maine nt least can bo do-
pcndcd upon to look utter these in their own
state.

the Twenty-fifth senatorial district , compris
ing the counties of Hamilton and Clay , met
in Stockham yesterday. This being the first
convention under the new apportionment
there was considerable strife to see which
county should have the senator first ? " Clay
county had eleven dclcgatos instructed for
L. G. Hurd , of Harvard. Hamilton had ton
delegates. The latter took umbrage at Clay
county's asserting her right to the senator-
ship without consultation , and for a time it
looked as if Hamilton would refuse to partic
ipate in the convention. Clay county finally
met and organized the meeting. After var
ious attempts un agreement was reached to
the effect that ttio candidate should secure a
two-thirds vote of the convention to nomi
nate. Hamilton county then took part in the
proceedings , and on tlio twenty-seventh bal
lot L. G. Hurd , of Clay county , was nomi
nated. _
