Nr.w Ai.iiAN'i , N. Y. , Oct. 15. Inelcmcnt
weather interfered somewhat with the dem
onstration hero to day ever the arrival of
lion James t ! . Hlaine , General A. P. Hovoy ,
Corporal Tanner , General Adam K. King
and A. Suendun. Toward noon the rain
abated and thousands of visitors from Lotnn-
ville , Ify , Jetrersonvlllc , Charleston , Madi
son , Corydon and other neighboring points
tramped about the muddy streets , At 0
o'clock Mlamo and General Hovoy hold a
public reception at the Windsor hotel , around
whlih Bcvcral thousand people clamored.
After shaking hands for nn hour , Hlaino
thanked the assemblage for the cordial wel
come extended General Hovoy and himself ,
and returned to ox-Congressman Culbcrson's
residence , where hu received many callers
luring thu day. Notwithstanding thu un-
favoruhlo conditions , the street parade In the
afternoon was declared by thu citi/ens to bo
the lamest and most Imposing demonstration
in the history of the city. Hlaine reviewed
the parade from the balconynf Mr. Culbur-
MII'H residence. General Hovoy and Cor
poral Tannuf reviewed thorn coming down
town. Thu procession was forty minutes
passing. Several thousand march
ers were In lino. A mass meeting
was held at which it is estimated from ten to
twelve thousand people weio present. Hlaino
arrived at 11:30 : and was given an ovation.
He was in good voicu and .spoke substan
tially as follows :
Mr Chairman'-Last Wednesday , nt
Goshen , 1ml. , I stated that Mr. Havumcycr ,
picsident of the sugar trust , hail appeared
before the ways and means committee when
the tin-Hi bill was up , mid , according to Sen
ator Allison , had seemed arrangements t > y
which KsUOO.OOO were put into the pockets of
that trust. Mr. Mills , chairman of the wnyn
and means committee , in a special card
printcil this morning in thuLouisvillQ papers ,
dunlcs that Ilavumeycr ever appeared before
the committee , or that any such arrange
ment an 1 have spoken of was made for his ben
efit. 1 do not know what Mr. Mills means
by this denial , unless it is that Huvcineycr
never appealed before the full committee
when in tegular session. If ho means that
he did not appear before members of thu
committee in the committee room , then lie is
contradicted , not by myself but by. the Con-
gicssionnl Record.
On page l'iM > 'l of the Congressional Record
for the current session , issued on July 10 , a
debate is reported in which Mr. Hrecken-
ridge of Arkansas , a member of the ways
und means committee , admitted that ho had
invited llavemeyur and his attorney to the
room of the committee on ways and means
on the 13th of April to talk over the sugar
tariffs , and Mr. llreckenridgo of Kentucky ,
another member of thu ways and means com
mittee , admitted having met Havcmeyer and
his attorney at another time. All that I
stated is substantiated by what I now quote ,
and in consequence the sugar standard was
changed. No. in , originally reported and
printed in the tariff bill , was changed to No.
1C. ns reported by the ways and means committee -
mittee , and passed the house , and it was in
this change that Senator Allison finds . * ( ) , -
( XHI.ObO which the committee put into the
pockets of the trust.
1 may take Mr. Mills'denials , If he chooses ,
that Havcmoycr never appeared before
him , but here were two members
of the ways and means commit
tee who openly acknowledged that they
had heard not only Havcmeyer but his at
torney , and tlm attorney was skilled in every
feature of the sugar tariff , and not only
know what points were advantageous to the
government but also Know still better what
points were advantageous to the trust. Thu
latter points seem to have been adopted by
the ways and means committee , though per
haps Mr. Mills know it , [ Laughter und
cheers. ]
I find also In the paper to-day a report of a
democratic meeting In New York before
which FairchUd , the secretary of tno treas
ury , appeared to defend his policy of loaning
: ? 00ooo , ( > 00 of the people's money to curtain
pet banks without interest. His defense
consists chlclly in proving that 1 overstated
the amount those banks could make out of
the tran.iaction. Hu says that 1 calculated
Interest on the whole tKM)0tKK ( ) ( ) ) , whereas
the banks are compelled to keep U5 per cent
of it in their vaults. Poor banks I What
hardships they have to endure I [ Laughter
and aivilauso ] 1 think that Fain iiild's
answer is positively amusing , and It recalls
to mo thu soliloquy of the man who
drew a 11,000 prize In a lottery a
few years ago , when the habil
was to deduct 15 per cent bcforu paying
fho amount. ' How lucky It was , " says he ,
"that 1 did not draw fJO.OOO. It would have
ruined mo to pay the premium. " ( Laughter
and Cheers ] , FairchUd docs not frankly urn !
manfully confront the issue. Hu docs not
state to the people how the banks eouh :
afford to buy government bonds when the
government itself could not alTord it. If II
was an advantageous proceeding for thosu
banks to invest $00,000,100 in government
bonds , why was it not still more advanta
geousfortho governmenttodoitl [ Checrs.l
1 press this question upon Mr. Falrcluld , foi
ho has not answered why , if the banks coiih
make S to " } < t per cent on the puichaso o
United States 4s , the treasury department
could not maku as much [ cheers ] , when bi
doing what the banks do hu could have
wiped out JCO.OOJ.HOO of the pudlic debt
[ Cheers. ] 1 press this question because it is
a pertinent question.
General Harrison mndo n well grotuidrt
accusation and used a happy phase when ho
accused the national administration of nurs
ing the sui plus. If Kan clulil had investci
the JtlO.OW.tHK ) In United States boiuls it
would not have appeared in thu surplus , but
1 f he loaned it to pet banks it still appears a :
n part of the frightful surplus , to gut rid of
which the people must destroy the protec
live tariff , i'hero is n very suggestive pom
bearing on that to which I bug Fairchild's
attention , Between March 4 , lis5 and Juno
? 0 , IbSU , ono year and four months from
Cleveland's inauguration , the surplus in the
treasury Increased jy5,000,000 , and the pub
lie debt was only reduced { 50,000,000. , O
this 150,000,000 , fU.500,000 was compulsory
purchase for the sinking fund. A lurthc
U lact is revealed that there was nt that very
iloto ? 50,000,000 of 8 per cent bonds tha
could have been called in at par , und they
were left in the hands of private holders
drawing interest , and in order that the bug
bear of thu surplus might bo raised , and , a
General Harrison says , "carefully nursed.1
( Cheers , )
Mr , Hlaino sain that when the dcmocrath
party cnmo Into purer four years URO it hai
found no surplus nt till , though during th
campaign of ISS-l democratic speakers ha
placed the alleged surplus at $400,000,000
The policy of President Cleveland's adminis
tratlon was to accumulate a surplus which
could have been avoided by paying off bond
as they became due. Mr. Hmlua then said
I believe , Mr. Chairman , that there never
v/as nn administration of the treasury depart
inent that showed so little practical com pro
henslon of the condition of the country ; one
that has been so filled and permeated with
that offensive conceit which always marks
the theoretical free trader. ( Great cheer
ing. ] I said before , and I repeat It now ,
that if a republican secretary of the treas
ury had loaned $00,000,000 to pet banks all
over the country , without Interest , the dem
ocratic party , if they controlled the house of
representatives , would have moved
to impeach him , and I beliovu it.
[ Cries of "That's so. " ] I do not say that
the republicans would so treat Secretary
FairchUd had they control of the house , because -
cause the republicans nro not fond of violent
methods , but are accustomed .to proceeding
with caution and moderation in public affairs.
I'liey dou't wi u to impeach him before tbo
senate , but they Impeach him before the
high court of the people for having done that
which was plainly against the public inter
est , and for having failed to respond to the
precedent set by former secretaries of the
treasury in faithfully and constantly apply
ing the surplus to a reduction of the public
debt. ( Cheers , )
Mr. Blame concluded with some references
to the tariff and Its relation to the Industrial
Interests In the vicinity of New Albany. In

SHIII.IIVVII.I.I : , Ind. , Oct. 15.- The train
carrying Judgu Thurmaii and party left Cin
cinnati at s-"o this morning for the demo
cratic barbecue in this city. The train
was occupied by 200 members of the Duck-
voith club , 150 members of the Thurman
club of Cincinnati , and fifty members nf the
riiurmun club of Columbus , besides largo
numbers of others. As the train pulled
slowly through thu yards it was greeted by
hu cheers of railroad men and the tooting
of whistles. Outslduof the city the people
sent up a cheer as thu train sped by. At
Grecnsburg several hundred people were In
waiting , calling for Judge Thurman , whoso
ippearanco on the platform was greeted with
cheers. He spoke a few words to themalter
vhlch thu train continued on its way.
Other cities en route gieeted the train
vith enthusiasm , and at Shelbyvillo the
crowd was immense. Tnurman was driven
up town to the residence of John Heggs ,
wheru ho reviewed the parade , which was
over a mile long.
After dining , Judge Thurman was driven
n a carnage drawn by gaily decorated gray
.torses through the crowded streets to the
still moro crowded fair grounds. Fully
10,000 people wore present and had gathered
around the the three stands from which
imminent speakers held forth , among them
icing Senator Voorhoes , General HlackUov-
crnor Gray and others , Judge Thurman was
received with much enthusiasm and spoke
about as follows :
I am thrice happy to sco all around mo
signs of victory in this state ( great cnthtisi-
ism and cries of 'You bot'l ' , and victory
'n Indiana means tuc election of Grover
Jlevuland to the presidency of the
United States. [ Applause. ] Now ,
ny friends , [ hero Thurmun produced
ils bandana , which was the signal for an
other burst of applause ] , fourycarsngo I had
.hu honor to speak to u number of meetings
n the statu of Indiana. I was advocating
the election of Graver Cleveland to bo presi
dent of thu United States. Our opponents
weru actively engaged In the same contoat ,
and wherever I wont I heard their gloomy
iredictions of what would befall the country
should Cleveland be elected president. [ A
voice "Wo still live"
: ] Everywhere they
[ iredleted ruin to the business of the country.
Everywhere they told us that the mills and
factories and furnaces of the United States
would shut down because they could not Ilvo
under the administration of Grovcr Cleve
land. Everywhere they talked about the
payment of the public debt , pensioning the
rebel soldier , and the Lord knows whatothcr
evils their vivid imaginations did not portray
to the people to prevent them from voting for
Cleveland for president of the United States.
The people did not believe their sad pre
dictions , and thuy elected that man to
the presidency ; and now ho lias been presi
dent for a littlu over thrco years and a
tialf and what do wo now hear ! Why , from
Lhcso very same republican orators wo hear
it declared that the United States never was
is prosperous as they ore this day. [ Ap
plause ] , All their prophecies of ruin to the
business of the country ; all their prophecies
in regard to the payment of the public debt :
all tholr predictions of pensioning rebel
soldiers ; all their Haunting of the bloody
shirt , has gone for nothing , and is only
remembered to bo ridiculed. [ Applause. ]
My trlends , there never was u president
who took his seat under more trying circum
stances than Cleveland did. The democratic
party had been out of power for nearly a
luartcr of a century. Of course there were
democrats who thought that when wo got a
democratic administration every democrat in
the laud ought to have a good oRice. Of
course there were others who wanted no
office. , but had their own peculiar notions as
to how the government should be conducted ,
and to meet and satisfy the wishes of the
people , those who elected him president of
the United States , that man Cleveland liad
the hardest task that ever was
encountered by a president. And
how baa he performed that
tnskl The people's answer to that question
Is found In the fact that after three years
and a half of his administration the demo
cratic convention at St. Louis renommased
him by a unanimous vote. Let mo say once
moro that no dishonest man , no second rate
man , and nobody but a great man , nobody
but an upright , industrious , courageous man ,
ever yet was honored in this way , and there
fore the answer to what is said against
Cleveland is : "Behold , the American people
have spoken in his favor. " [ Applauso. ]
My friends , if 1 had time to do It I would
like to say a few words upon a subject that
interests you so much , and which is talked
of so much this year the question of the
tariff. What Is the tariff ! It is nothing In
the wldo world but a tax. It is a tax levied
upon you people , and when It Is levied for no
other purpose than that of furnishing the
government of a country with sufficient
means to carry the government on no man of
any party makes any objection to It. But
when It is used , not for the purpose of rais
ing In that way the necessary revenue
for the government , but for raising millions
and tens of millions , nay hundreds of
millions of dollars or moro of revenue for
which thu government has no legitimate use ,
then , my friends , the government puts Its
hands into your pockets and robs you of
your daily earnings. [ Applause. ] I say it
U u tax , and it is a tax paid in n most un
equal degree by the poor man of the land.
How Is this tax paid I Docs the tax gatherer
of the United States come around and de
mand U of you on your farm and in your
workshop ! No , that Is not the way. It Is
this way : Upon every article of foreign
manufacture that is brought into your
count ! v for sale this tax Is levied. It is col
lected in the custom houses of the United
States , it is first paid by the man who
brings the goods hcic ; and then , of course ,
ho puts that tax upon the price which ho
paid for the goods and soils it for that
increased price when ho disposes of it to the
merchants. Then when the merchant sells
it to you hcic In this goodly city of Shelby-
ville ho keeps on that tax in the prlco that
ho charges you for it. Otherwise ho could
not carry on his business twenty-four hours.
Mr. Thurman adverted to the treasury
surplus , and said that it was just so much
money taken out of circulation ; that Is , just
so much money which the people might use
in their many business transactions und Ir
supplying their daily wants , and so would
usu it were it not locked up idle in the vaults
of thu treasury. My friends , continued he ,
our opponents say that this tariff is for tin
benefit of the laboring man , ns If it could
possibly bo fof the benefit of the laboring
man to tax him on all ho wears , on all hi *
wife and chlldicn wear , on all the tools am
implements of his trade , and when ho dies
cut ry him In a taxed coffin to his grave. No ,
that is simply an absurdity. The Idea that o
nation can bo made rich by heavily taxln ;
its people far beyond what the necessities o
the government require ; the idea that a
man can bo bettered by taxing him
on all the necessaries of life is
nothing short of an absurdity. [ Applause. ]
Hut thu republicans state that the democrat !
propose to break down all the manufacturers
in the country. My friends , they will do no
such thing. They mean to give the manu
facturcrs a fair chance for on honest living
and when they do that they do all that an
honest man can ask. They talk about our
oppressing or being the enemies of the labor
ing man. Why , in the name of all that U true
of what manner of men Is the democrat ! '
party composed ! I have belonged to it OVOL
since I was knee high to a duck , as we boys
lived to say. [ Applause and laughter. ] I havt
watched it , been of it , and seen It undo :
many aud many un administration , and al
ways I have seen that ninety-nine hundredth :
of the men who belonged to the democratic
party ore laboring men. [ Applause and cries
of "That's right. A volc . "Not for a dollar
a day , either. " "Not if they c iu gel more.
Applause. )

Trouble In Chicago.
CHICAGO , Oct. 15. [ Special Telegram to
Tut : HEC.I For the first time In many days
streetcars were running as usual In all parts
of the city to day. It appears , however , that
ho troubles on the North side arc not quito
icttlcd. There Is much dissatisfaction
among the strikers over the terms of agree-
nent made yesterday with the wily Mr.
Yorkcs , and the result Is that there nro
nany hints of another tie-up. A great
nnny of the men arc intense radicals and go
on the wholc-thlng-or-nonc plan and arc find-
ng many listeners to their arguments for
another strike. A reporter made trips on
all the lines running on the North side this
nonnng and questioned the old men , Not
me of them was satisfied with the terms of
.he settlement.
"We cannot work with the new men , "
said ono of the hot heads , "and as long as
ihey are at work wo will not be satisfied. "
It would'seom that the above hint about
another strike is not idle talk or the expres
sion of a few radicals , for another conductor
said that at a meeting to bo hold to-morrow n
determined effort would be made to again tic
jp the whole North sldo systom. George
liammel Is one of the few conservatives of
thu old employes who counsels moderation.
"I think there is a misunderstanding
among thu men , " ho said to a reporter , "re
garding the terms of settlement. If the men
will wait u few days and not bo hasty every
thing will come out.all right. "
"While the men have not obtained all they
struck for originally , 1 consider that in the
settlement they have achieved a victory , "
said George A. Schilling this morning.
Mr. Schilling returned from his eastern
trip yesterday morning , aeoompanlod by two
delegates from district assembly 22 * ' * , which
controls the surface lines of New York and
Brooklyn. "I think it was a sig
nal victory , " ho continued. "It is
one of the greatest in labor circles within the
past twelve months. The men seem to bo
satisfied , and that should bo sufficient for all
of us. "
"What will the union do regarding the new
men ! Will they bo accepted as members ,
should they proffer their names , or will the
union buy them off and send them to their
liomcsi"
"That , of course , I cannot * ay , " was the
reply. "It remains with the old employes.
Those arc problems that usually solve them
selves , however. "
At about 0liO : o'clock this morning one of
the new men , a young fellow whoso name
could not be learned , was passing along in
the rear of the barns. Suddenly four of the
old employes jumped upon him and began
beating him. Ho was kicked in the back
and stomach and struck in the face , and
pretty roughly handled. Finally he suc
ceeded in drawing his revolver. His assail
ants fled and ho pursued them. He fired four
shots at them , ono of which struck ono
of the pursued men In the foot. The man
who was shot was afterwards arrested and
recognized as a driver named Uurloy. The
police arc after the others. Hurley's wound ,
while painful , Is not dangerous ,
There was a serious riot on the North side
early this morning. The old employes were
at the Racine and Clybourn avenue barns this
morning , bright and early , with their uni
forms on , and , as they understood , to take
their cars out ns usual or clsq get some in
formation as to where they were to go to
work. They knew that some of the men
were to bo dischargci' ' , and that some of the
men were to be retained on the road , but as
to how many , or who they were they did not
know. Superintendent Shrcdoy was als on
hand , but took no pains to enlighten the old
employes.us to what would bq expected of
them. The first car left the barn at 6:04 :
o'clock in charge of two new men. The old
employes stood about In the drizzling
rain and saw seven cars leave
the barn , all in charge of now men. The old
men were being ignored entirely and they
loon began to express their dissatisfaction.
They applied at the barn door , but were In
formed that their places were to bo Ailed by
now niea. Ono hundred and five of the old
force applied for work. In the Interior the
new employes were massed and ready to go
on the trip. The refusal incensed the
strikers , who anticipated that thu trouble
had all boon adjusted. They grew ugly and
turned away , muttering and Bulky. Along
the curbing of the streets in the vicinity
they stood waiting for the cars to move.
When the third car reached the corner of
Osgood street a sortie was made upon it.
Knragcd men climbed upon the platforms.
A huge bowlder struck the driver in the
tido. Four men grappled with , biui , but ho
concluded that safety necessitated a
speedy departure , and ran. The con
ductor was attacked by eight men , and ,
seeing that he was completely surrounded by
the mob , ho entered and sat down. He was
instantly picked up and pitched headlong
into the street. The stoppage of the first car
brought the remaining three of the set of six
to a stand still , and the assailants proceeded
to handle thu men furiously. Rocks con
tested possession of the foggy atmosphere
with the drizzling rain , and everybody
seemed to bo yelling and swearing , The scene
was of the wildest description. ' Men with
blood streaming from their faces were seen
scattering from the cars , chased by the mob ,
which had at this time boon worked up to
the most intense passion. It lasted but a few
minutes , and when the cars were abandoned
the crowd fell back , leaving them standing
on the track. The employes ran back into
the barn , and when the call for the
police , which had been sent in
to the Halsted street station , was responded
to , there wcru little evidences of the riots
perceptible. Flvo men , however , four of
whom were from Philadelphia , were nursing
bruised heads in the dormitory of the barn ,
some of them suffering from ugly contusions
caused by bricks and clubs.
It was not long , however , before the run
ning of the cars was resumed , and soon
twenty were making the trips. Louis Hen-
dricks , ono of the rioters , was arrested und
taken to the Halsted street station. Ho
jumped on the platform of the last car and
threatened thu conductor with a revolver.
Thu cars were at once placed under the pro
tection of two officers , ono each on the front
and rcur platforms.
Last night the result of the conference be
tween Mr. Ycrkes and his men was pretty
generally known , and the fact that all the
new men would be put on thu Gurfield ave
nue line spread like wild fire. The Indigna
tion of the citi/cns knew no bounds , and all
those who live along the route of that line
who were in sympathy with the old men ut
once began making preparations for making
it as uncomfortable for the now men as pos
sible. As a result of their work Garficld
avenue and Center street this morning pre
sented a sight that delighted the hearts of
the ex-striker : ) and their sympathizers.
These two thoroughfares were blockaded as
they were never before with old wagons ,
stones , planks , and the heaped up ashes of
hugo Jolilication bonfires built last night.
These obstructions extend for blocks.
Later in the day a number of the old em
ploye : ) congregated at a saloon opposite the
car barns and drew up a request for a special
meeting to bo held at midnight to-night.
This was the result of their treatment this
morning. Thirty-six names were signed to
tne request and it was forwarded to Master
Workman Christie. They would not ordi
narily have sent this request , but they had
received no information from Mr. Threedy
as to where they were to go to work and they
had grown disconsolate. When Ycrkes
heard of the troubles he issued the following
proclamation :
To the Old Employes of the North Chicago -
cage Street Railroad Company , City
Sirt : From what transpired this morn-
lug it Appears you have not bccu
nformed by your committee of the
arrangements yesterday In regard to your
coming back into the employ of the company ,
It was this , that there1 were to bo certain

you are to work from the others , The barns
jlvon to the new men nro the Kroger street
Darn and part of the limits barn. The old
men who have been In the former barn , and
also those whoso places have been filled at
: he limits , should bo divided around at
: he others , and the men there should bo will
ing to divide up the work with them , if they
want to treat these men fairly and carry out
the spirit of the agreement. Tiierc is an
effort being made to drive the now men
from their places , and a number have been
assaulted this morning. I can only say to
you that for every man who IB driven away a

for n Settlement of the Strike.
CHICAGO , Oct. 15 , The statement is pub-
Ishcd hero that sometime ago the grievance
committee of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers hold a secret meeting , nt which
ciieral Manager Stone , of the Chicago ,
Lttirllngton & Quincy railroad , was present ,
and that it was by his request that the meet-
, ng was heldas ho expressed a desire of con-
ferrlnc with the men. Mr. Stone Is said to
inve conceded all points asked by the men
except the classification system. Ho also
agreed to take back five hundred out of the
seventeen hundred that went out. The men
were fighting for the classification system
and therefore no settlement was arrived at.
A second conference jvas held , at which
Stone promised to pay tic men the standard
wages as paid on othew roads , and to take
back all the men who stj-uelt , but is still firm
is to civing In to the clarification system.
; Ie promised to think the matter over , but
nothing has been heard front it yet.
This , it is said was , tno state of affairs
ivhcn the Chicago delegates to the brother-
tiood convention to bo held in Richmond ,
Va. , left for that city last night. It is as
sumed that their position will have weight
with the convention on the question of con
tinuing the strike or declaring it off. At the
offices of the eompany this morning it was
denied that Manager Stone had attended any
meeting of the brotherhood.

WASHINGTON , U. C. , Oct. 15. )
"The president Is nil infamous llbelcr when
ho goes down Into this poor woman's private
character to incut a political issue , " ex-
cluimetl Senator Hlalr , In the senate this.
afternoon , while discussing the veto of the
pension bill of Mary Ann Dougherty. These
words , spoken with unusual vigor and In
high tones , created a trillc of a sensation ,
and the ears of everybody within the sound
of his voice were pricked to catch the
sentence which followed. It was ; "There
lias been n degree of connivance against
this poor woman by the mercenaries of this
administration which would put to shame the
very denizens of the pit itself. "
There have been very bitter denunciations
of the administration and the president
during to the present session of congress , but
.hcso were more attractive than any that
mve been uttered. After a few moments of
nird breathing and mufllcd applause In
the galleries there was a stillness which was
almost painful in the senate chamber. Sen
ator Blair was very determined and elo
quent.Ho continued to declare that for the
mrposo of milking n political point the
agents of the administrationbent on backing
up the president's veto , had terrorized the
employes of the government wherein the
Iriends of Mrs. Dougherty have attempted
.0 procure evidence that she was really cm-
) loyed ID the arsenal here during the war at
Die time the explosion occured which did
icr severe injury. The senator said that
not only had Mrs. Dougherty been denounced
by the president , as a vile character , but
.hat her friends who had testified In her be-
ialf had been traducedvilliflcd and denouncd
He said that every charge against her
tiad docn disproved , but that if they were
true It offered the president no excuse for
maligning her private character simply to
irove that she was not an employe at the
irecnal at the time of the explosion and that
she was not injured by the accident.

state : "Hcpublican speakers arc ever.vwhi'ru
greeted by large audiences , fully one-third
ueing democrats who like to hear the tariff
and the administration discussed in all their
phases. The democrats there listen pa
tently to republican reasoning. Now , for
Lhe first time in my knowledge , I think wo
: iave a not only a good show of electing the

WINNERS IN THE .fllMV SHOOT.
The adjutant general has just published
Lbe names of _ the winners of prizes by mcm-
Bers of the army'rifle"teams aftnc competi
tion held at Fort Niagara , Now York , last
September. The seven victorious prizemen
uavc in consequence of their achievements
been transferred to the class of "distin
guished marksmen. " Twelve men entered
the contest and they represented the artillery ,
cavalry , infantry and engineer corps
branches of the service. Six of the prizes
were captured by cavalrymen and the sev
enth by an infantryman. The first prizeman
was a sergeant , the second a corporal , the
third a private , the fourth a first lieutenant ,
the fifth a sergeant , the sixth a second
lieutenant and the seventh ( skirmish prize )
a corporal. The result shows that the non
commissioned officers took the majority of
the prizes. The prizemen were from sta
tions in the west and their marksmanship
shows that they can handle the ritlo with
great efficiency. The orders contain five
tables , which give the records made in the
annual competition. The Division of the
Pacific leads the scores , the total being 871.
The Division of the Atlantic follows with
SIM points and the Division of the Wisconsin
with 630. Of the twcnty-ono marksmen
transferred to the "distinguished class" for
18S8 , eighteen are non-commissioned officers
and three lire commissioned officers. The
prizes given were gold and silver medals
and they are very handsome trophies.
Among the winners were First Lieutenant
M.V. . Day , of the Ninth cavalry , who se
cured the fourth prize , a silver medal.
In 1684 Lieutenant Day won a gold modal.
HiH score at Fort Niagara was 329 , while his
score four years before was 470.

Yoik Herald C.ible Speci.il to Tin : Hic.J :
Sir Morell Mackenzie expects , I am told , to
nakc ATiO.COOby his book to-day Issued. If
so hu will bo dlsippolntcd. The booksellers'
orders are heavy , but when the public useer-
ain th.it the greater part of the work con
sists of a medical cor.trovui-sy , very technical
n its nature , they will not be eager to buy
t. On Fnd.iy evening the most Interesting
lortions could bo bought for a penny or two ,
.hanks to the enterprise of the Herald. Some
of the London papers borrowed those ex
tracts on Saturday morning. Howtho Herald
managed to obtain them in advance of all the
, vorld must perhaps remain one of the tnys-
.eries of its Journalism.
Maekcn/io's publishers almost had n fit
when they found what the Herald newsboys
were belling. They had disposed of what
hey called "the exclusive rights" for largo
sums and put out their placards in ovcry
own in Kngland only to find that in these
lays an attempt to create n monopoly in the
shape of "exclusive rights" Is pretty sure to
jrcak down If an enterprising paper is
iround. The only safe course is to deal with
.he public openly und above board all along
the line.
Having already seen thu substance of the
jook in the Herald , what do the people SUV
ibout it ! So far as 1 can form a Judgment ,
they say that it would have been quito as
well if Sir Moroll Mackenzie had let the
whole thing alone. The attacks of the Gor-
nan doctors were doing him no harm. Hvery-
jody knows how physicians love ono nn-
othur. Mackenzie needed no vindication , and
f ho had not punllshed ono ho would have
est nothing in public esteem.
What good purpose can bo served by nil
.hese painful details about the caiiula and
the traehoca mid Hergmaiin's abortive
struggle with the tube I When are they
going to let the Ill-fated emperor rest in his
; ravu iu puuco ! Hismarck is doing his bust
to desecrate that grave. The emperor's own
son either looks on with approval or actively
iBsists. The doctors are getting up a vulgar
irnwl , much resembling a free light , around
, t. Hcrgmann and Hramann will fire
oft a volley in reply to Mackenzie. There
are pretty sure to bo law suits and clouds ,
and the darkness which fell so heavily upon
.he crnpcror in the last year of his life will
still pursue his memory. What had lie done
, o deserve such a futei Sampson , Lowe &
Co. are to day privately threatening ven
geance on all the newspapers which they
iccuso of infringing their copyright. If they
lad known what was coining they might
iiavo procured an injunction against the Porig
edition of the Herald , but they are powerless
now. The secret had to come out. The pub-
lie had been looking for a highly dramatic
account of thu Into emperor's ' sayings and
doings during the months Mackenzie at
tended him. They now see that what is
offered them is merely a professional record
of a case such as the medical Journals pub-
ish every week. It is not the fault of the
icw.spapcrs which anticipated the formal
mblication of the book if there has been a
'rsat cry and little wool.

those on the way from China and to those
still in China. It is estimated that this de
cision will affect ; 13,000 Chinamen. There are
