A Mortem Delegation.
xn : , N. Y. , Oct. IS. There was
nn immense demonstration nt Khlnobock
to-night , tlio occasion being a visit of the var
ious republican clubs to Mr. Livl P. Morton.
Fully 5,000 people were present. On arriving
at Mr , Morton's rcsiilenee thu clubs massed
on the lawn on tlio north Hide of thu house.
Gcorgo Essclstem , of Uhinobeck , us chair
man , welcomed the clubs and presented them
to Mr. Morton , who spoke as follows :
"Mr , Esselsteln , friends and neighbors of
Dutehess and Ulster counties : Illuminated
demonstrations of this magnitude are of rare
occurrence in quiet country towns , and the
mirpriso of the people ot Khlnobeck can , I
think , only be compared to that of the red
men of the forest when thu pilgrim fathers
landed on Plymouth Hock , or when Uobcrt
Fulton's boat made its llr < t trip up thu Hud
son river , However , I liuvo great pleasure
in greeting you with cordial welcome and
beg to assure you of my gratesful apprecia
tion of thu honor conferred upon me by your
visit this evening , lleyond welcoming you
hero In thu best terms at my
command , I do not sec that
thcro is much to bo said. You nru republi
cans , and no arguments arc therefore needed
cither to convert you to those principles or
to strengthen wavering faith in them. And
It no happens that within the party there are
no ( mentions upon which the republicans dif
fer There is nothing In our platform which
calls for guarded explanations or diplomatic
CXCUHCK , and thcro uru neither cliques
nor factions. If , therefore , wo have
no politics to talk about this evenIng -
Ing wu can at least speak of ourselves and
expatiate upon thu harmony xvhich pervades
the republican party , and the element of
strength which such unity of sentiment and
purpose so clearly betokens.
From the nominations made by the
Duchess county convention last Saturday ,
and those made at the stuto convention at
Saratoga , there is no dissension , and thu
platform adopted by our state convention is
Kiipportcd In its entirety by nil republicans.
You probably know that republicans
of every other county ln the state
uro working in as complete harmony
us In this. There are among you many who
upent the ( lower of your years in the battle
for freedom , and you can practically estimate
the value of close masses when entering a
tonlllct. Your experience will teach you
tlint organizations such as thu largo numbei
present to-niglit nro effective ! and
powerful agencies in political cam
paigns , lint , my friends , Industrial
nnd | H > rsonal work is equally important.
Only a few days remain for effective work
before the verdict must bo given , which
xvlll , In my judgment , have n far-reaching ef
fect on the future prosperity of the country.
The absorbing question at this time is whether
that verdict will favor a continuance of those
principles of protection for which the repub
lican party has always contended , and which
have placed this country nt the head of in
dustrial imtioiiB. With such complete har
mony in your ranks , such unison in senti
ment , wo may await the verdict with confi
dent assurance.
Tliurinan In Indiana.
PKIIU , Ind. , Oct. IS. Judge Thurman nnel
party arriveel hero this afternoon to attend
the barbecue. Crowds have ) been coming
Into the city from early morning , and all the
streets were filled with people. Owing to
the wet weather , it Is doubtful whether
Judge Thurman will speak at any length.
Upon Ills arrival ho was taken to the opera
house , which was crowded with an enthu
siastic audience.
The little opera house In which Judge
Thurman sp eke has seats for COO or 700. nnd
double that number crowded into it until the
balcony became dangerously overcrowded.
On thet streets an immense throng watched a
| [ brief "float" procession that carried party
I' mottops to the delight of the spectators. It
| j Is estimated that fully 15,000 pcoplu were in
town during the day.
Judge Thin-man began his speech by com
plimenting the crowd on its size , and sayin ; ;
that it was a healthy indication of how In
diana would go In Novumbcr. If tlio In
diana democrats did their duty Grover
Cleveland would bo the next president of tlio
United States. Ho then proceeded to ells-
cuss the tariff and the question of thu sur
plus , following thu line of argument pursued
last night at Fort Wayne. His audience
gave the closest attention , frequently Inter
rupting with applause , and showing interest
nnel keen appreciation of the points through-
cut the speech.
Continuing , ho charged the republican
ipcakor.s with making bold and audacious
attempts to deceive the people in
llieir high protective tariff speeches ,
Ho cited as ono instance the claim made by
them that this tariff tax is not paid by thu
American consumer , hut by the foreign Im
porter j that ho pays it for the privileges of
bringing his goods here. Ho wanted to know
If this wns the ease why all other taxes were
not abolished. Why not collect nil taxes ,
Btato and county nnd for gove-rnme'iital ' pur
poses , from these foreigners ? ho asked. Wli.v
not say to the people of Kurope , you shall
mpportour government ; you shall , in the
guise of tariff duties , furnish ail the moan ?
tlmt nro necessary to support the American
government. How long would it uo , he
iiskeel , be'foro they would say , Well , what i ;
FUUCO for the goose is sauce foi
the guilder. They wouhl say ti
you farmers , who send off your wheat U
Kurope , nnd your pork and beans nnd the
like , "You send nil these things to our coun
try to be sold ; you shall pay such duty , sucl
tariff ns will support our government , urn
then wo will see who will come out bust it
in the long run , "
How would you like thntl asked the
ipcnkcr. How would you like to support the
Immense standing armies of European coun
tries ! Ho predicted that the American
farmer would not stand it one day.
Immediately nt thu conclusion of his speech ,
which lasteel thirty-llvo minutes , Judge
Thurman was driven to the depot und rcstei
quietly in his private cur. A largo crowe
was on hand to see him there , and he cami
put three times to chut with them. Judgi
Thurman nnd Governor Grny talked forsomi
time with the crowd , the repartee bolni
fresh nnd breezy and greatly delighting tin
people. The train pulled out nt 33o ; o'clocl
for Indianapolis.
lNnu.NAroi.i9 , Oct. 18. Judge Thurmai
nnd party arrived hero n few miuutcs bofon
I ) o'clock , the train biting two nnel n hnl
hours behind time. It wns heavily loaded

response to the greetings of the people nloni

nt the Grand hotel until Saturday morning
when ho will go to Hru < ll to closu his Indian

CHICAGO , Ot , IS. [ Special Tel cr < un t
TUB BEE. ] General Algcrof Michigan , wh
has been with the tllulne party In InitUui
paid to your correspondent lutt night : '
believe the republicans are goingto carr
every Uato In tha north. In the light e
what w-o at preicnt icoow , I do not see hot
the democrats can carry any one ot tha iloubl
ful stales. Such enthusiasm ai we raw 1
Indians was perfectly fmtailag , 1 think
'aw at leas I d nllilen y oplO wUUo'I w&i {
the state , everybody wearing badges , every
body hurrahing , nnd everybody , it seemed ,
going to vote for Harrison. Kvcry little
town through which we passed turned out
its whole population. Business seemed to bo
suspende'd. 1 don't believe the farmers will
husk thuir corn until after the election. I
have been surprised to tlnd how many sol
diers there voted for Cleveland. I think
r > 0OtX ) at least did so. The old soldiers to n
man this year are going to vote the republi
can ticket and they may well do so. They
make the cause of every man whose pension
was vetoed their own. The old soldiers will
bo one of tliu principal sources of gain
to the republicans In Indiana. Thu
talk of Michigan being doubtful is all
nonsense. Hvery place you go democrats
aru pointed out who are going to vote thu re
publican ticket. In n procession nt Flint the
otl.cr day , there were twelve prohibitionists
and four democrats who are going to vote
the republican ticket. I have Inquired very
carefully ns to the prohibition vote and I am
very well satislled that it will bo less than it
was in IMS ) . All the congressional districts ,
in the present outlook , will return republican
members. "
At 'i'lppcoaiuic.
L\PAYITTK , Ind. , Oct. IS. The second day
of the republican demonstration at IheTippo-
canoe battle ground can hardly be called a
success. From early morning rain fell stead ,
ily , and by 11 : ! 10a. m. , when the speaking nt
the tabernacle began , the crowd had dwin
dled to less than M.OOO. Ira J.Chase , candidate
for lieutenant governor of Indiana , Colonel
Law of Atlanta , Ca. ! , and others entertained
the crowd until Hon. Uobcrt T. Lincoln of
Chicago was announced. Shortly after 1
o'clock Mr. Lincoln was introduced as
thu "eldest son of our martyred president ,
Abraham Lincoln , " and was greeted with
generous applause. He spoke one hour , con
fining his remarks mainly to a discussion of
the tariff. While he was speaking the llrlng
of cannon announced the arrival of Governor
Foraker , who took a seat on the platform
until the conclusion of Lincoln's speech.
e uito an ovation was tendered thu gover
nor when he arose. He devoted himself nl-
mo.st entirely to an attack on Mr. Thurman'H
position on the tariff question. Ho was fre
quently applauded. At H o'clock the speak
ing and celebration ended together.
Hewitt and Cleveland.
Nr.w YOUK , Oct. 18. Mayor Hewitt ,
speaking about his feeling toward President
Cleveland , said to-etay : "There is no cool
ness between President Cleveland and my
self or Mr. Cooper. 1 see no reason why 1

Henry Crawford.
CuiCAeio , Oct. IS. Henry Crawford , who
is now the solicitor for Humphrey &Lindlcy ,
the trustees of the Wabash mortgage of
1879 , has tiled with Judge Grcsham a brief
containing n sensational allegation , attacking
the validity of several million dollars of
hitherto supposed Indebtedness of the Wa
bash system. This afternoon Judge Grcsham
readied n decision on the motion which has
been argued before him for thu past two
days to consolidate all the foreclosure
suits in the Wabash litigation. He
held that thu divisional mortgnges
should nil bo consolidated with Urn ICnox
and Jcssup mortgage pending at Spring-Held ,
111. Ho said , however , that ho would not
enter the order until after the hearing of n
similar motion at Nashville , Tonn. , by Judge
Jackson on Monday next. The court allowed
a motion for the payment of ono six-month
coupon on nil the llrst mortgages and f undue ]
debt bonds , amounting to ffiOO.OJO. The mo
tion to have Receiver McNulta keep separate
accounts for each division of the Wabash is
expected to occupy Judge Greshain's atteu
tion to-morrow.

There will not bo much done before the
session closes , ami most of the men in either
house will get away before Saturday. A lot
of them left for their homes to-night. Wash
ington Is extremely quiet now. Everybody
is glad that the session is almost ended. It
Will on Saturday bo nineteen days longer
than the longe-st session on record. Unless
the president senels the promised "bomb
shell" to congress between li ! and 1 o'clock on
Saturday , the end of the session will bo un
eventful and witnessed by less than three
dozen statesmen. There nru men in thu city
to-niglit who say the president may , when
ho is waited upon by the comniitttce from
both houses to notify him that congress is
ready to adjourn and asks if ho has any
further coniuunilcatiou to make to it ,
reply that ho has nnd that ho
may send in n message rapping
the republicans over the he'uel for not taking
action on the tariff , or for the attitude of the
republicans on thu Canadian question. Ho
could have a message read in both houses at
the very last moment , and cut out any reply.
The republican party is on thu qul vivo for
any sensational move the president mny
make and they will checkmate It if possible.
They realize that they are dealing with a
Hunuutlonnl president.

Coni'reas will adjourn at 1 o'clock day after
o-morrow. The senate becoming weary and
isgustcd with the endeavors of tlio house to
eep up the farce of a session passed an ad-
ournment resolution and within a half hour
McMillan , u elemoeratie ! member of the com-
liltee on ways and means , c.illed up the pro-
ositlon in the house , and at thu end of three
lours of debate it was by that body adopted.
The democrats In botli houses at the last
lomcnt showed an almost indecent eager-
: icss to get away. They did this notwith-
tandlng the fact that they have been pru-
ending to want to stay here. In both houses
ho republicans advocated a recess till Novem-
: > cr Iti or 19 , which would give two or three
.vceks moro time before congress , under thu
constitution , reconvenes , Monday , Dcccm-
wr a , but the democrats solidly demanded an
adjournment.
As anticipated , the democrats in the house
attempted , under the stress of ciruum-
itunces , to attack tlio republican substitute
'or the Mills tariff bill and the republican
endeavor to reform the tariff , by producing
nn alleged analysis of thu senate tariff bill
uid making a misstatemcnt in reference to
ho work of the senate committee on finance ,
but it proved n boomerang. Mr. Millan was
compelled to admit , before ho sat down , that
the republican proposition to increase the
ilutlc.s on the luxuries and put on the list
or greatly reduce the duties on
the necessaries of life which cannot
bo produced In this country in sufficient
quantities , was the only true and equitable
way to reduce the income. Then the repub
licans proved beyond question thattho demo
cratic members of the committco on ways
and means as stated the other day by
Mr. Blainc , in Indiana , had changed the
sugar schedule so as to conform to the wishes
and demands of Havcmeyer , the monopolist
who Is ut the head of the sugar trust.
Mr. Harry B. Mulford , of Omaha , son of
John C. Mulford , of Willard's hotel , was
married In this city nt 0:30 : last evening to
Miss Anna Belle , daughter of Mrs. Beatrice
Hill Pope , formerly of Georgia but now of
Washington. The wedding was nt St. Paul's
church nnd only the Immediate family nnd
friends were invited. Mr. and Mrs. Mulforel
left on tho7-40 : train for their homo , intend
ing to stop off at Chicago for two days , after
which they will proceed direct to Omaha ,
where Mr. Mulford will resume his duties nt
the Union Stock Yard bank.
There is u good deal of squirming to-night
on the part of thu democrats in congress
over Senator Teller's resolution to investi
gate the purchase of English made blankets
by the war department. They are afraid the
proof of correction between this administra
tion and British contractors will be produced
before the election.
