CHICAGO, October 6, 1 p. m.—Wheat has been By Cc firming all this morning and looked as though it would turn 74c very easily, but was stopped at that by sellii.g against calls and the selling by a leading bear, which checked the advance and ave the market some weakness towards the close. Aside from this the feeling was growing stronger allthe while and backed by encouraging ad- vices from New York telling of large buyin on foreign account, we were getting in goo Shape foranadvance. Still, the market has made some gain and holds it fairly well, con- sidering the ease with which the crowd are scared by the least thing. Corn showed some strength in sympathy with wheat, but it was a slow and unsatisfac- tory market all through. Freights are 442c on corn, and 4%c on wheat to Buffalo.

FORENOON SESSION, CLOSING 1P. mM. The amount of wheat and flour on passage for the United Kingdom has decreased 800,000 bu., owing to the heavy imports of last week, but wheat to the Continent shows no change; corn on passage to Europe decreased 255,000 bu.——250,000 bu. of that bad Milwaukee wheat wus posted to-aday.——There have recently been auestions as to the correctness of the statistics in relation to the European grain trade sent tothis country by Beerbohm, and the Board of Trade at Chicago decided some weeks ago to obtain its information through other sources. For a considerable time have been noticed very important dis- crepancies between the stocks of wheat and flour at London anda Liverpool as sent by Beerbohm viacabile, andthe Official returns which afterwards come by mail. As many operators base their transactions on statistics, itis very important that they be correct. It seems that the dissatisfaction is not alone con.- fined to this side of the Atiantic, for we find that a correspondent of the Manchester Guardian states that ‘‘one must be capable of ‘swallowing a camel’ before he can piace faith either in Beerbohm’s or Dornbusch’s figures, ’’ Take last week for instance: Wheat and flour to aize Afloat. M to United Kingdom. United Kinedom. , usb 2Bushels eerbohm oS0 Ooo ’ , Dornbusch .......... 15, 2,436, Furthermore, I find that Beerbohm has lately been telegraphing each Wednesday his esti- mates of quantities afloat, but between his telegraphed and next day’s published figures there is a great discrepancy.

There will consequently be no 8t.

This shows a difference of 6,535, bu wheat in favor of this year. Wheat opened 4%@%oc lower, but after- wards recovered. The 800,000 bu decrease in the amount on passage was usedasa pretext for inflating values, but English cables) were dull, though continental markets were reported steady and the move- ment to market continued liberal. It was more @ recovery from the late depression and decline that enabled the bulls to work the market up than any legitimate influences. At any rate the top rutes were not sustained and the close was the same as _ yesterday.

Senator John Sherman has a great deal to say about the depressed condition of the busi- néss ofthe country. The Senator overlooks one branch of business that has been entirely broken up within the past two years, and that is the business of waving the bloody shirt and alarming the country in the interest of politi- cians. The gentiemen who used to live by this sort of thing are all bankrupt. Where Women Suffer Painfully, From the Lowell Citizen. “Wee that your wife I heard talking just now?’’ he i guess not.

BOR LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE. A Body to Be Organized on the Plan of the Federal Congress—To- Day’s Proceedings of the Richmond Convention — Fight Over the Admission of the Brooklyn Delegates—Excitement Over a Test of the Color Line, RICHMOND, Va., October 6.—At the specia! session ofthe General Assemb! yr, Knights a Labor, held at Cleveland, Beaumont McCarthy and Campbell were appointed a committee to watch legislation in Washington. Ralph Beaumont, the chairman has prepared a report supplemental 00 one printed and distributed among the Knights, in which he Says: ‘*Your com. mittee realize the day is near at hand when we may safely rely upon the members o our order, in sufficient eambers to ne oe great and useful power as a body at the polls, to sustain such candidates ag may be relied upon to favor our interests.

Frank Farrell, the colored delegate New York, sat with the New York delegation at the theater last night to see ‘*Hamiet,’”’ This created excitement in Richmond. TO- DAY’S PROCEEDINGS. Although Mr. Powderly and the members o the Executive Board of the Knights of Labor | were up until ry late hour last night, completing necessary work in connection with the propositions which they intend submitting tu the convention, they were allup early this morning, and a majority of them ontheir wayto Armory Hall before 9 o’ciock, the hour fixed for the beginning of the session. Although it was the third day of the conven. tion, its members were not yet ready to begin the actual work they had cometo do. Thers still remained to be settied the question o! seating eight or ten delegates, whose cases the Committee on Credentiais had referred to the convention. Mr. Powderly and all the leading members refused to say whether these eight or ten nen are delegates trom Brooklyn- Montauk Protective Association or not, but it is generally understood they are. The strong feelinz excited by the efforts of the Brooklyn men to obtain recognition made the Committee on Credentials hesitate, it is believed, to assume the responsibility of — the matter and threw the burden upon the convention itself. They were further prompted to such action, it {3 said, by the assertions made by some that the committee was prejudiced against the Brooklyn men. Throughout the city to-day the principal topic of discussion was the admission, last night, o/ colored Delegate Farreell to a seat in tix orchestra circle in the Academy of Music, a section of the auditorium | mond, hitherto sacredly from the intrusion of per. sons of his race. The general feeling among Virginians here is one of bitter resentment and they regard the delegates from District 49 with anything but friendly feeling. It is said that a majority of the local Knights are much provoked at the action of their visiting brothers, and it was reported that a few Knights living here declared their intention of abandoning the orderand joining the Law and Order League organized here in sworn oppvusition to the Knights. At noon a recess wastaken until 2 0’clock. Mr. Powderly announced to the representg. tives of the press that he had nothing to com. municate totnem. Same secret business had been transacted, but, of course, he ecvould not say anything as to its nature. The morning session was mainly devoted, he said, to con. sideration of the reports of the Committee oa Credentials, which has not been finally acted upon. The dQelegates ar unusually reticent and such statements uw can be elicited by inquiry are contradictory, It seems safe, however, to say that whatever action has been taken by the Credential Com. mittee inthe case of District 49 and the Brooklyn delegates,ia unfavorable to the latter The feeling of a majority of the delegates, out- side of New York, isin iavor of Brooklyn. It now seems possible that a third day’s session may end with the convention stili unorgan- ized. from Henry George’s Platform. From an Interview. My nomination is in reality a Democratic nomination—more Democratic than any that has been made foralongtime.

Absolute possession, however, is necessary forthe improvement of land, and I would leave to individuals the same secure posses- sion that they have now under the present sys- tem, merely taking for the use of the com- munity that value of land which arisés from the growth of society, and notfromthe exer- tion of the individual. ‘‘lam an absolute free-trader.

From the Boston Gazette. This incident may not be known generally 0 our readers, and we venture to reprint it. When the unabridged edition of Webster's Dictionary first appeared (without a definitioa of the word unabridged), the great scholar, Caleb Cushing, wrote a criticism on the stu- pendous work, saying that for its size it had as few errors as could be expected. This puz zied the editors, who asked an explanation of Mr. Cushing’s information gn the subject ol those errors. In reply Mr. Cushing marke/ 5,000 mistakes In the volame which bad presented to him and sent it back. Have You Noted? From the Des Moines Leader.

He Accepts the Nomination for the New ; York Mayoralty. | NEw YORK, October 6.—Cooper Union was crowded last night with workingmen when Heary George accepted the Labor nomination | for Mayor. Thousands were unable to gain admission and large overflow meetings were held in adjoining streets addressed by several speakers. When Mr. George entered the hall the entire audience rose, wild with enthusiasm. When order _was_ restored the chairman of the meeting, John MacMakin, formally tendered Mr. George the nomination for Mayor. Mr. George, after the enthusiastic cheering subsided, said the step he was about to take was not one to be lightly entered upon. When the nomination was first mentioned he regarded itas something not to be thought of. He did not care to be Mayor of New York. His political ambition was ended because he saw politicians cringe and crawl. He would not shame bis manhood by seeking office for office sake. Another carger had opened to him, to pioneer, advance a move- ment, to make a roadthat would afterward be trod by millions...

After exhaust- ing the fund in hand for payment of fifty per cent dividend, the receiver has a balance of assets of $674,875.00 to realize, and the payment of the second dividend of fifty per cent aggregating $474,850.00 would stiilleave a wide margin to defray the ex- penses of the receivership, court§ costs, etc. The following is the remaining List of time savings deposits bearing interest to the date of the closing of the bank, July 14, showing the principal depositors under that head: SAVINGS DEPOSITS.

EVANSVILLE, October 6.—About three months ago the City Council, after a long controversy with the Cumberland Telephone Company, or- dered the poles and wires in the streets and alleys cut and removed for failure of the com- pany to obey the State law limiting charges for telephones to $% per month and because the city ordinances were not strictly observed. Some poles were taken down and wires cut, whereupon instruments were taken out by the company and sent away andthe telephone business was suspended here, The company brought charges of mali- cious trespass against certain Councilmen and city officials and had them arrested. When the Grand-jury was sworn in a week ago Judge Parrett charged them _ to the effect that public officials doing such acts without malice cannot be held criminally libel. The Grand-jury yester- day ignored the charges. Now the councilmen say they will sue the company for false impris- onment. Judge Parrett was the judge who de- cidea thatthe telephone company was a com- mon carrier and subject to the State law, and the Supreme Court afltirmed the decision.

Spaldiug telegraphed yesterday pro- posing that the serics open on October 14 st Chicago, in which city three games be piayed—l4th, 15th and 1éth—and three more pe played at St. Louis on the following week. Ton der Alle objected to these dates because of their confliction with two of his dates with the Maroons and proposed that the opening played at Chicago on October 18, 19 and 20, and the other three at St. Louis on the gist, 22d and 23d. These propositions it will be seen are made on a basis of seven games in- stead of five as at first proposed, andin fact are better, as the larger tue number of gaiwes the more «atisfactory the result. In speaking of his contract with the Maroon ement Mr. Von der Alle said to-day that ne considered the series with the Chicagos more of a desideratum, and that, moreover, the contract Was not binding.

Bendigo, a Good One, It is the custom to make light ofthe preten- sions of a horse after his fifth year, but the case of Bendigo is a peculiar one, saysan Eng- lish turfman. Old horses have ceased to bear the palm with 8-year-olds because they are usually hammered to death at 2 and 8 years old. endigo is the most notable exception in the annals of modern British racing. He is ‘‘Irish-born,’’ and did not start at 2 years old. Then he fell into the hands of a very conserva- tive owner in Mr. Barolay. Heis one of the few who appreciate a great race-horse. He never runs the horse above two or three races during the season. Aithougha6-year-old, Ben- digo is as fresh in speed and stamina as a 8 year-old; more so than most 8-year-olds at this season. The ease with which he played with his ftleld in the Eclipse stakes at Sandown, in July, a fleld composed of such good ones as St. Gatien, Miss Jummy, etc.,beating them to & standstill, demonstrated this. Ormonde may be a great colt, as is claimed, but he will need to be ‘‘the horse of the century,’’ as his admirers cluim, to defeat Bendigo at the weights. Should he succeed in doing 80, the Duke of Westminster can retire him to the stud, where Touchstone, Doncaster and Bend Ur baveall reigned in their Ser. with the sat- isfaction of having the most highly tried horse in the world. The Haif-Mile Championship. A dispatch was received from L. E. Good- win of Chicago, yesterday, requesting that the race forthe half-mile championship be post- poned until October 17, 80 as to allow him an opportunity to take part. Murphy, Barstow and Lingo were at once consulted and con- sented to a postponement. In a leer received from Goodwin this morning confirming his dispatch he says: ‘‘To expect me to go into an event of such impor- tance without being fully prepared,Jwould be estimating my abillties too high and not tcaking into consideration the progress you St. Louis men have been making. The Chicago people have the utmost confidence in my abilities, and ifI cannot win I want to at least make a creditable record. I shali{probably be down a few days before the race so as to get well rested up, and get accustomed to the track.’’ Daly and the Marine. The coming six-round glove contest between George La Bianche, the Marine, and Dan Daly isthe topic of discussion in local pugilistic circies. Thecontest is booked to occur at the Union Park on the night of Thursday, October 14, next week. La Bianche will arrive in the city duay after to-morrow and will make prepa- rations here. Daly is training as he never trained before. He is under the skilled care of Bob Farreii, the ex-champion, who says he will have his manin prime condition to-morrow week. Daly is looking splendidly. His complexion is as clear as wax, hig flesh is bard and firm, and Farrell says he will be- gin work on his stomach to-morrow. ‘‘Alil depends on the condition he is in when he steps into the rinyg,’’ said Bob to-day toa PosT-DIsPATCH reporter. ‘‘Weare going into this thing to win, and the fight will be one of the best on record. In the first place La Blanche ean’t afford to sacrifice his reputation and he will do his utmost to get most points. As for Daly, it wiil be the biggest card of his life if ne can count on the Marine a majority of times so as to be deciared winner.’’ The referee of the contest wiil probably be chosen froin the audiehce on the night of the occurrence. Bicycle Budget. The Boston Bicycle Club’s 100-mile road race Saturday wasafailure. Nine men started as follows: Amateurs—S. P. Hollingsworth, P. J. Berlow, H. H. Porter, W. 8. Doane,G. S&S. Locke. Promateurs—W. A. Rhodes, W. H. Hiuntiey, A. A. McCurdy. The route was so complicated thateight of the men got lost or gave up before they had gone more than half the way. The only one to finish was W. S. Doane of Dorchester, who kept pegging away and lnished in 7 hours 14 minates, which ia exceedingly good time. Ives and Rhodes wiil ride for records at Hampden Park Friday and Saturday. George B. Thayer ieft for his Connecticut home this morning. He takes the train to Louisville and from there begins to wheel East again. A race to decide which is the faster is being arranged between Rowe and Hendee. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

Jus- tice Cullen of the Supreme Court, special.term. yesterday granted anorderof arrestjfor Ochs, Miss Beyer claims that she was acting as Ochs’ housekeeper in September, 1885, and that he proposed marriage. She refused the offer, and Ochs made himself so obnoxious a suitor that she left hisemploy and wentto work in the house of Geo. Bowden, No. % Hewes street, Brookiyn. S00n alter she went to Mr. Sowden’s the plaintiff claims that Ochs began to write loving letters to her, and insisted that she should become his wife. The following letter is introduced into the complaint as a éample: Dear Wirre—if you wiil come here and marry mel wiil settle my entire fortune upon you. I have been sick at heart since you have been away and I need your cheering face that once made me happy. There is some washing here which I will give you if you will come up and get it and give me an oppor- tunity to seg you once more and teli you how much I love you. All the neighbors have missed you since you have gone away, but none of them much more than I. I wouid very much like to see youagain. If you will only come back and marry me ali will be forgiven. Your loved one, HENRY OCHS. CHARGED WITH THEFT. The compiainant further alleges that on Sep- temnber 26 last, when she was at church, Ochs went to Mr. Sowden’s house and charged her With stealing bis diamonds. On ber way home from church she was overtaken by Ochs, who grabbed her by the arm, and repeated his re- eats for herto marry him. She brokeaway om him, and asked a young man to help her, but Ochs drew aroll of bilis from his pocket and gave the oung tan an amount of money whic convinced him tbat he did not want the case. A few a detective came along woman On & charge of stealing diamonds. Miss Beyer alieges that on the way to the sta- tion the detéctive told her a warrant had been issued ho justice on complaint of Ochs, and made other admissiens which led her to be- lieve that she wasthe victim ofa . She was putin a cell whieh, she says, was alive with vermin, and compelled to remain there all night. After she was locked up she alleges, Ochs came to her and said that if she w marry him she would be released. She was arraigned before Justice Kenna and discharged, Ochs not appearing against her. Miss Beyer claimed that several parties had been to see her since her discharge with aview to having the affair hushed ap, but she would not listen to them. Judge Cullen fixed the bail at $1,000 whieh Ochs will no doubt furnish at once when order of arrest is presented tohim. He had not been arrested at hour last night. Im portant to Merchanis.

EFFORTS TO STAMP OUT THE PLAGUE AT | CHICAGO. 7 Action of Various State Authorities Receiving Cattle From the Infected District—Btate- ‘i ment of Veterinarians and Cattle Inspect- ors—Inspecting Dressed Beef. NEw YorK, October 6.—The Times this morning says, editorially; ‘‘If Chicago were not the greatest American market for cattle and beef and hog products, the remarkable stupidity which the Illinois Live Stock Com- missioners have shown in the treatment of contagious disease in the distillery stables might hot cause surprise or excite indignation beyond the boundaries -of the city, The inhabitants of Chicago, to whom the carcasses of the slop-fed cows are to be sold, and to whom milk from infected and diseased cows has been sold for the last two weeks, might somewhat loudly complain; but people elsewhere would te moved only by sympathy. The treatment of diseased cattle in Chicago is ,however,some- thing in which the whole country takes a deep interest because hundreds of thousands of people living far from Illinois receive their supplies of beef from that city. Notonly does the matter closely concern all consumers of Ohicago beef, but it also is of great importance from a commercial point of view, for anything that has a rye 9 effect upon the beef trade is a blow to one of the country’s greatest industries. The live stock commis- sioners of Illinois and the dealers in beef in Chicago should know that for these reasons the daily reports which show a wretched fall- ure to work for the suppression of the disease are read with indignation outside of their oity. It may be that a caretul inspection of infected cows siaughtered by their owners will pre- vent the marketing of bad meat. but does the course taken by the commis- sioners and the health officer indicate that the inspection will be thorough? Thereis another aspect of this matter which deserves the attention of the stock yard men, the butch- ersandthepackers. Can they affordto have any of this slop-fed and infected beef sold in the public market of Chicago? Plainly, they can not. They could better afford to buy and destroy fifty such herds. But if they realiy cared for the reputation of this trade or could see that it would be injured by such sales,they would have taken measures fortheir protcc- tion long ago.’’ The Situation in Chicago. CHIcaGo, October 6.—The fact that over 250 head of cattle which have been stabled atthe Empire Distillery were spirited away Monday created considerable excitement among Chi- cago stockmen yesterday, and there was a men deal of speculation as to the probabie isposition madeof them. The cattle were not under quarantine, and it ie claimed that the Live Stock Board had granted the owner permission to siaughter them and lace them on the market at his own risk. Mr. Rice, the owner of the animals, positively refused to be interviewed on the subjectand the members of the board were likewise unwilling to throw any light upon the question. Itis reported that certain commis- sion merchants at the stock yards took the cattle, but whether this is the case or whether they have been driven away to pasture is not ‘known. Although Mr. Rice has denied that the Gisease had madcits appearance among his herd, ong ofthe sheds was placed underquaran.- tine last week becxuse of two suspicious cases which were found init. It wasin this stalithat the steer died yesterday, andthe fact that it was placed inthe furnace and burned before the state Veterinarian couid arrive on tiie ground to make a post-mortem examination {is looked upon as evidence thatthe fatal dis- ease exists at the Empire distillery. AT THE OTHER DISTILLERIES the situation remains about the same as here- tofore. There were three deaths at the Phewyix and one at the Chicago, with several additions tothe sick-list atthe former place. The veterinarians have been examining the herds on the outskirts of the city, and dis- covered acase of pleuro-pneumonia among a herd of milch cows that has been grazing out near Garficid Park. The diseased animal was traced toastableon Lake street and an effort will be made to quarantine the drove. Considerable anxiety is manifested in other States over the action of the veterinary board here. A party of officers consisting of Gen. N. Kelly, Jono W. Hamilton, J. G. White and A. A. Holcomb, the State Veteriaarian, ar- rived here from Kansas last nicht to investi- gate the sicustion here. They held a eonsulta- tion with the board last night and will make a tour of inspection to-day in order to deter- mine what action their State should take in regard to qaarantine. It is aso asserted that similar delegations haye arrived from Nebraska and New York. The Assistant Veterinarians re- turned last nightfrom Blackberry. They in- spected 217 head of cattle, but found no signs of pleuro-pneumonia. About seventy-five cattle-owners, distilicry men and commission men from the stock yards helda meeting last night to discuss the situation. It was decided to have a committee appointed to secure lawyers to look alter the interests of the own- ers of the cattie in quarantine.

Hill Believes It Will Be the Issue in the Presidential Campaign. New York, October 6.—The WORLD this morning prints a long Interview with Gov, Hiil. During the interview Gov. Hill discussed generally the National Administration without entering into personalities. He felt that no one man was necessary to the success of any party. The party wasthe best guarantee for the carrying out of its principles. The great masses of the party after the election did not desire office; all they had sought to secure was a change of adininistration in the interests of good government, The Governor was asked what he thought would be the prin- cipal lssue in the coming presidential cam- paign. Ile replied; ‘‘Ithink that the question of good government will be the issue. It will be simply the question of whether the Demo- cratic party, having redeemed its pledges for good government, shall be maintuined in ower. 6, ‘Then you do not think the tariff will be the ipaue?’’ ‘‘No,I donot. The tariff question is a com- licated one. I am more in sympathy with he expression of the Ohio State platform of 1883 upon the subject than I am with the plank in the Chicago platform of 1884,’’ In speaking of the opposition of the ‘‘mug- wumps,’’ to him, he said; ‘‘Perhaps some of this antagonism to me grew out of the situa- tion following the inauguration of President Cleveland. THE MASS OF THE PARTY, as I said before, did not desire office, but I do not think that the veterans of the party relished the new recruits coming to the front and loudly prociaiming their services in their anxicty to act us a selt- constituted advisory board to the President, It would be unnatural to expect veteran Democrats, whether they wanted office or not, to witness independents constantly shouting in the ear of the administrative power: ‘You inust not advise with or favor this or that Democrat,’ and the result was a certain amount of Irritation.’’ The Governor said, in speaking of the changes which were taking place in the Fed- eral offices of the country, that he believed that by the time the President's term had come to a close, the Democrats would be found in a majority ofthe offices. It was well to be conservative atthe start. The Demo- cratic party came into power new to publie administration, and it was without doubt awise way to go more deliberately at first, He spoke pleasantly of the President and his associates. While he confined his discussion on national affairs more to general matters than to personalities, ne there was nothin in his manner or line of conversation to indl- cate any butthe pleasantest feelings toward the President. If Gov. Hillhas anything to say upon the subject it will be doubtless expressed in 1888, and not atthe present time. The Governor possibly may make one or two speectes this year inthe campaign. He has been invited to go to Pennsylvania to aid in Gov. Black’s canvass, and make a speech at Philadeipbia a few days preceding the election. He has aleo been invited to take part in the Ohlo cam- ae oy Hie will not be able to accept this atter invitation. Gov. Hill leaves here to re- view the militia in New York to-day.

A STORY OF TWO MARRIAGES, The Strange Case of James Speer and Mrs. Emeline Blackmeyer, His Wife. By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcna. New York, October 6.—For several weeks a case has been under examination in the office of Horatio C. King of Brooklyn, which sug- gests the romance of Enoch Arden, though with a prosaic binding. On Monday Judge Pratt of the Supreme Court in Kings County by granting a decree of absolute divorce to James Speer from bis wife, Eweline B. Black- meyer, wrongtully so called, succeeded, for a time at ieast, in extricating the three dramatis pees from the terrible tan- le into which fate hadthrownthem. Twenty- ve years ago, when Emeline Speer was a rosy-cheeke girl. James Speer used to carry her books home from school and eat ice cream off the same dish. It ended in a marriage which was ieisurely regretted. In abuut two years the young people,inthe words of the novelists, ‘‘drifted apart,’’ Speer going forth from his quiet bome, in Kosyn, L. I., to battle with the hard world in the capacity of com- mercial traveler, and Emeline to work in a large Brooklyn store, and, after five years, in the comfortable belief that Speer was dead, marrving aman by the name of Blackmeyer. The life of the Biackmeyer family was about as smooth as most people's until one day last winter, when Biackmeyer and his wife met Speer on Fuaiton street ‘‘face to face.’’ Emeline said: ‘‘Good gracious, Jim, is that you?’’ and ‘‘Jim’’ went straight off to Lawyer .endall, and began the divorce proceedings which have ended successfully. At first Black- meyer considered himself aggrieved by his wife’s want of confidence, but he was soon pacified and exceedingly happy when Speer refused to prosecute his wife for bigamy.

By Telegraph to the Poet-DisraTcn New York, October 6.—The WORLD to-day says: ‘‘The flamboyant and bounding Bel- ford, who falied to get a Congressional re- nomination from his Republican constituents in Colorado, has organized an insurrection and is now treating for terms with the Demo- cratic leaders. It is dificultto tell how many of the grand old party J. B. could drag into the enemy’s camp, but if he displays as much tact as he used to on the floor of Congress, the Democrats had better keep him back with the baggage train.’’ THE &0UN. The Sun says: ‘‘Throughoutthe length and breadth of this free country young women who cowhide young gentiemen pear to find fame in their fury and bonorin their whips. But we may as well tell the giris in all frankness thatthey should not jadge by outward ap- pearances. In reafMty there is nota particie of sincerity in the applause that is won in this violent manner. Whena young man has had the honor ofathrashing from abeautiful young woman he gains a certain distinction as a masber, which he pays for by being laughed at. But the lady is laughed at too. It Is a big joke all around, with 4 square show for gossips. Tne successful use ofthe whip is something that is beyond the reach ofthe girls. To attempt it is dan- gerous, first, because itisan unwomanly and rowdy-lixe act, and secondly because the iris who try it, asarule, are not good ges. No doubt Miss Decker of Tottenviiie, 5.I1., who whipped the stenographer re- cently, forms a beautifal exception to the rule. The cowhide makes plenty of fun sometimes; occasionally it brings on a heap of trouble, but there are two things it can never do. It cannot better a good reputation and it cannot restore a lost one.’’ THE TIMES. The Times says: ‘‘There is something queer in the persistency with which Gen. iles is criticised from headquarters tor bis direction of the Apache campaign, and particalariy ite final stage, the surrender of Geronimo, It has been repeatedly asserted that Miles’ prede- cessor, Gen. Crook, could have procured the surrender of Geronimo iong ago, provided he had granted the terms giyen by Gen. Miles, but that his instructions, which were like Miles’, forbade him to make such terms. The statement, however, presupposes that Gen. Miles guaranteed to Geronimo hie iife, and that in so doing he violated his orders. The exact facts as to the terms granted to the Chiricahua Chief can probably only be learned from the General’s official report which at this writing has not been inade public.’’ THE TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: ‘‘Mr. Powderly has pre- ed a shrewd address for the Knights of Pabor.

RicumMonD, Va., October 5.—Grand Master Workman Powderly’s annual address will be presented to the convention to-day, and isas follows: Zo the Members of the General Assembly: The most eventful and trying year of our ex- ce as an order has ended, and we assem- le for the purpose of reviewing what has been one, corrécting those things that are wrong, land of legislating for the future. ; is required by law that the General Master kman shall make out and submit a report ft his official acts during the year. To report tall of my officia! acts performed during the ast year would take more of your time than at all necessary; and to roperly place ‘them before youl would require at least four eeks’ time in which to prepare them for resentation. » Lhave all ot my correspondence and letter ks within reach, and can, on short notice, fer to them in matters of detail. When tho w which requires of the General Master orkman to make out a report was passed hat officer was nota member of the Genera ecutive Board. Now that he is a mem- rof that body, the report of the Board ust naturally constitute a report of the portant part of the duties of the General ter Workman, for my time during the ear was mainly occupied with General Ex- utive Board business. I refer you to the geports of the General Executive Board and other officers and agents of the General As- gembly, and will &ddress you briefly upon ‘some few matters of importance, and make wuch suggestions as I consider necessary. If we are guided by the experience of the past, and act accordingly, we can place the order upon a footing sv safe and sure that no, assaults from its enemies can injureit. If we are not guided by that experience, if we fail to read aright ths signs of the times, and we glose tnis General Assembly without having im- proved on the past, we will fail to properly represent those who sent us here, he rapid increase in organization since the Hamilton session of the General Assembly was most marvelous. An examination of there- orte of the General Secretary-Treasurer for he year ending July 1, 1886, will show that in one year 4,068 assemblies have been organized. The new members so suddenly brought to- ether could not be properly assimilated. Fhousands have been attracted to the order through mere curiosity; others Lave come tor purely seifish motives; while the great bulk of our new recruits have joined us for the good that they could do. Quite afew have entered our order for the ——. of redressing existing wrongs, and, efore waiting to learn anything concerning the duty of the Knight to the order, have lunged into rash and ill-considered strikes. he troubles coming trom this direction’ be- gan whilethe last General Assembly was in session. The car drivers of St. Louis were organized under promise from the organizer thatthey would receive aid, unstinted, in case of astrike. Even beforethe receipt of their charter they wereon strike. Their proceed- ings were characterized by such utter disre- gard for our laws and teachings, that the paid and known agents of their employers, the de- tectives, had no difficulty in securing the pas- sage of motions of a violent character. lt is an established fact that men who were employed by detective agencies stood up on the floor of that Assembly, made inflammatory speeches urging the men to deeds of vivlence, and urged that the property of the street-car com- panies be destroyed. It was oniy the good gense of the men that prevented such outrages from being perpetrated, although these agents of a nefarious spy system induced some des- perate me. to blow up the cars upon the streets. For these outrages the order was in mo way responsibie. The st. Louis car troubles were but the beginning otf the tidul wave of strikes and boycotts which swept over the country, and which strained the strength and Fesources of your general officers almost be- yond their powers of endurance. THE SOUTHWEST STRIKE begap when the time and attention of the gen- eral officers were taken up with other matters of vital importance. No notice of the con- templated action was given to us, and we knew nothing whatever concerning it or the causes leading to it until it bad been in pro- gress several days. It has been asserted that I condemned the men while they were on stiike. No such state- ment ever escaned my iips. The only state- ment of mine that could be made to appear in the light of a condemnation was that contained in my secret circular of the 138th of March,a copy of which is herewith submitted. It did not approve ofthat strike. I could not do so, since confidence enough was not reposed in the General Executive Board to give them a chance to examine into the grievances which the members of D. A. 101 complained of, It was only when the threat was made to stop every wheelin the United States and engage the whole order in the difficulty that I raised my voiceindenial. I did that in de- fense of the order and the country. Iam ulte willing to assume ali the responsi- lities attached to the act, and would do the same thing again under similar circum- stances. That the men of the Southwest suffered wrongs is true; they were many and grievous; and it is my firm belief that the railway companies, with a full knowledge of what these grievances were, precipitated the fight themselves at atime when it would appear to the world that the strike was foran insig- mificant cause. I can do no better than to submit the reports of Brothers Litchman and McGuire. These § two inem bers were by me, personally dGetalied to go with the Congressional Com- mittee, and with that committee examine into the strike and its causes, so thatan early re rt might be made t. the order by its own presentatives. I{the position which I took during that strike was wrong, then the entire order sustained me i): it, for when 1 issued the appeal for aid to supportthose whom the com- panies refused to treat with, I was most gen- erously sustained, as a reference to the report of the Genera! Secretary-Treasurer will show. The documents and correspondence relating to that strike are at your disposal. THD ERIGHT-HOUR STRIKE, which took place May 1, was not successful except in cases where employers and em- ployes were er in bharmony, or where em- ployers were wiliing to adopt the plan. In many cases the old system of working long hourshas been revived. The Federation of Trades recommended the Ist of May, but adopted or suggested no definite lee by which the short-hour system could be inang- urated. I cautioned our members against rushing into this movement. I had the right to do it, and am firm inthe belief that, had I mot done so, great loss would have been en- sey upon vust nuinbers of our assemblies. hatIsaid in my secret circular of March 13 has been severely criticised, and I have been accused of opposing the eight-hour move- ment. No statement ever wus further from the truth. Il opposed the strike on May 1 because I knew that _meither workmen nor employers’ were ready for it, because the education which m always precede intelligent action had not been given to those most in need of it, be- pause no definite, business-like plan for the inauguration of the eight-hour movement had been mapped out. In fact, no preparations been made to put the pian, if it can be eda plan, into execution. These aro the ns why I opposed the movement on May for these same reasons do I still op- ' t. - A reduction of the hours of labor is a neces- pity, and sooner or later must be bad, but we ust not forget that in many places the ten- plan has not been adopted yet. It may do very well for an organization which looks after the interests of but one craft or calling to ect those who stund most in need of heip, but a Knight of Labor must never close his eyes to the wants of the humblest of bis fellow-creatures. The very discussion of the sudden introduc- tion of the eight-hour plan injured business, go much so that in many places men were re- duced to half-time or thrown out of employ- altogether. Millions of dollars’ worth of wor yee left gacene: pedense of _ “pet tainty in regard g contracts or in mak- nts to perform work.

Oneshe was the only god of carnival.

LINE OF MARCH. As the revelation of beauty swept out of the north on Eighteenth to Washington avenue; east On Washington avenue to Filth; north on Fifth to Franklin avenue; east on Franklin avenue to Fourth; south on Fourth to Myrtle; west on Myrtle to Fifth; north on Fifth to Washington avenue; east on Washington ave- nue to Third; south on Third to Chestnut, en- tering the Merchants’ Exchange by the Cheat- nut street entrance. THE FLOATS were all of such a high order of excellence that no prolongued applasse was lavished. on any particular one. ust as the crowd would prepare to lustily cheer one float the light of the succeeding one would come into view; at once a hush of expectancy would fall and the glory of one was thus lostin the glory of the her. “i was fitting that such excellence should characterize each representation, for even the most perfect work of finite hands would have failed to properly treat the grand subject of the night’s pageant—America. So many torch-bearers accompanied the procession that each theme was shown up in every detail. FIRST FLOAT. The introductory fioat was entitled ‘‘Amer- ica,’’ and in its gorgeous beauty prepared the beholders for the wonders to come. On the top of a bank of clouds so richly hued as to look like the cradle of rainbows, sat the God- dess of Progress, her triumphal car being bathed in the tinted fleece that made up at once her canopy and her resting place. A group of red men in the foreground repre- sented the infancy of the country and in their nude dress and primitive surroundings con- trasted forcibly with the symbols of civiliza- tion just a few feetabove their heads. Tho Indian chief was arrayed in a gown of sea foam satin, profusely trimmed in gold, fash- ioned in the designs peculiar to the gur- ments of. the sun-worshipers; over this was worn along cioak of crimson satin, also elaborately trimmed and edged with gold. The head-dress was that worn by Indians of the highest rank,and consisted of a gold head- band elaborately beaded and set with feathers of various hues. Armlets and bracelets of goM, together with long chains of gold coins, and the pipe of peace,completed this costume. America was arrayed in a gorgeous dress of red and white striped satin, over which was worn the starry banner to form the drapery for the skirt. The bodice, of cloth of gold, was elaborately set with rubies. The long flowing sleeves, made of “rich lace, were canght at the shoulder and held in place by chains set with sapphires and diamonds, From her shoulders fowedalong red satin cloak lined with biue and white striped satin and edged with gold stars set with diamonds. SECOND FLOAT. ' Then an old Norsemen’s galley came float- ing along, the rude oars ofthe eleventh cen- tury peeping through the sides of the strange ship, with a prow showing the head of a hid- eous fmonster. Clumsy and awkward in construction, the old time vessel was manned by big heavy~-set Norse- men asawkward as the ship itself and made to look still more ponderous and un- wieldy by the heavy armor that covered their brawny forms. The commander, o’ertopping all the rest, sat above his rude crew and di- rected their searching eyes to the distant land that was ust showing above the blue edge o the ocean. The Norsemen were clad in suits oi mail, partially concealed by coats of silk plush. Thecaptain wore a rich mauve-colored silk plush sileeveiess coat, elaborately embroi- dered in silver and edged with gold lace. The ‘‘look-out,’’ or horn-bearer, appeared tna rich red silk plush. coat pory’ embroidered with silver; sleeves of red and blue satin. THIRD FLOAT. When the Spanish standard was unfurled on the third float everybody Enew that it was connected with the familiar date of 1492, and that the distinguished looking man witha cavalier’s suit and the lofty gaze was Christopher Columbus, and _ that the men by his side were the couragous explorers whose faith in their leader had givenanew continent to the world. A Catholic haga with the cross of Spain an in his robes was standing near to consecrate the ground, while in the background the little Santa Maria was chafing uneasily at anchor. Columbus was attired in a blue silk velvet Spanish jacket, puffed with cardinal satin, the puffing lined and edged with white satin, trunks of cardinal satin, knee-breeches of biue silk velvet, long blue silk stockings. The velvet of the suit was richly embroidered with gold. The head-gear a hl a aa (el ed had as , A P 2" ee : —% . “. 4 : . Ck, ty : .

On these streets the Dian of illumination was different from that followed on either Fourth or Broadway. The reeeneceses Y a ORTICELLI SPOOL SILK: continuous line of arches along the curb was replaced by the nineteen- burner trees at regu- lar intervals. The magnificent arches span- ning the street were used, however. While both streets were radiantly and weirdly gorgeous in their effect, Olive, perhaps, sur- pone’ the avenue, because the lighting of the Exposition block added much to its appear- ance when viewed from the east. Franklin avenue was illuminated on the same plan as Washington avenue and Olive street, and was nearly as brilliant in appear- ance. Taken altogetherthe illumination was the grandest ever seen in this city or country and probably the finest ever seen in the world. An Unfortunate Accident. There were very few accidents during the passage of the pageant last night. On Pine street near Eighteenth street, float No. 9 was almost upset by getting too near the sidewalk and being caught in the branches of a tree. While the pageant was passing down Washs ington avenue and gee rs street atier of seats in the yard of Custodian Deanof the Washington University facing Eighteenth street fell with a crash, the two hun- dred men, women and children seated on it falling in a _ heap. Fifty feet of the fence in front was thrown down and for some time the greatest excitement prevailed. Officers forced the crowd back and SEWINGS AND BUTTON HOLE TWIST.

Columbus himself wore over his armor a cloak of royal purple velvet, from his cap de- pending purple plumes. The whole scene, costumes, attendants and accessories showed the brilliancy of the Spanish court in the fifteenth century. : FIFTH FLOAT. When the fifth float roiled by, there was the famous Ponce de Leon, the Spanish warrior, who sought to find the fountain of youth. Being then on the shores of Fiorida he and his band stood half concealed in tropicai plants, from among which stole outa purling brook, which the bold explorer was drinking. The means of travel of those times was shown by the two donkeys standing meekly by, waiting for the burdens they were to bear in through the untrodden forests. As De Leon stood in the glare of the red light he realized one’s conception of a reckless cavalier who did not stint himself when it came to orone stockings, Spanish cap and ostrich plumes and Elizabethan frill. a ¥ " the Montezuma caine past on the sixth float on which Cortez dressed in full armor,, be- neath a royal purple tunic relieved by a car- tunnelling with pick and shovel into a bank where glittering veins suggested the ric promise of the shaft. NINETEENTH FLOAT. King Cotton presided over the nineteenth float. In the forward part a glossy plantation darky belabored a mule attached toa cotton cart atthe rear of which a gang of negroes and agricultural wealth of Missouri. At the summit of a mountain rich in all the minerals the presiding mistress sat enthroned. She was attired in a magnificent light blue satin dress, heavily embroidered gold and chenille; a Grecian cloak of the same shade of satin was richly embroidered in gold ¢riflins. The head-dress was a gorgeous peacock with tail feathers spread. The armliets and brace- lets were of gold, linked together with chains. She was accompanied by a retinue of embie- matical figures representing wheat, corn, oats and tobacco, each attired in typical costume. Just infront of Missouri’s throne a horn of plenty discharged its ample contents upon a grassy field. On either side was the coat-of arms of the State and the motto, ‘‘United we stand; divided we fall.’’ THE V. P. HIMSELF, Then the crowd swept out into the street to catch a glimpse of the great patron of ail these scenes of beauty—the Veiled Prophet himself. But the Light . and as they came down time was not due to rudeness, but to a desire Prophet was orama. Through a enjoying the gorgeous Pp eyes blazed out events.

In case of trouble a guards- rode in Mrs. Bonnin, and she was about to leave for Portiand and would like to take a servant girl and chambermaid with her there, as she was going to commence housekeeping. Olara said it was rather far, and she did not care to leave the city, but Mrs. Bonnin soon gained her con- fidence by smooth talk, and gave her to un- derstand that should she be displeased with the situation after a month’s engagement she would give her $100 and pay her passage back to Montreal. They came to no definite setile- ment atthattime. The woman brought Clura to a house, the name of which or where situ- ated she does not remember. Here they par- took of refreshments and the couple separat- ed, Clara agreeing to meet Mrs. Bonnin in two hours later. ANOTHER VICTIM. Clara, before parting, stated to: her com- panion that she was acquainted with a young ri who would probably wish to accompany er to Portland, and Mrs. Bonpvin requested her to bring her friend with her. About 8 o’clock Clara Ritcher and her friend Philo- mene Girard met Mrs. Bonnin at the same hotel. Clara was still rather reluctant to go to Portiand, but Mrs. Bonnin informed her that she had girlsin heremploy who made over $300 in one month, and they could have the same opportunities. She, moreover, agreed to pay both girls $250 per week inciuding a and guaranteed to always keep them splendidly dressed. The is decided to o. «(to Portiand and immediately proceeded home to arrange their baggage. They were accompanied by Mrs. Bonnin, and everything being in readi- ness they were driven to the Bonaventure Sta- tion to take the 10:15 Portland train. On their he station Mrs. Bonnin requested the girls to say nothing concerning their engage- ments or tell with whomthey were going to Portiand. Arriving at the station, Special Constable Bureault, formerly of the city police, but at es in the employ of the Grand Trunk way, noticed Miss Girard, with whom he Was acquainted slightly, and he also noticed that the woman was acting manrer. He had frequently seen her before and suspected that her presence in Mon was not for honorable oses. He accordingly telephoned to the Bentral Police Station for Detective La Pointe, and that officer lost no time in reaching the station. He found Mrs. Bonnin seated in the liman car with her two birds, and she was instantly marched off to the station. She refused to give any information whatever, but gers sev addresses, among them one in and.

Serious Injury to Five Persons, LEWISTON, Me., October 6.—A most shocking accident occurred here last night at the resi- dence of the Rev.

Suddenly the gas exploded. All were in the room at the time and were hurled against the furniture, and two of them through a door. The room was de- ewored, the plastering being torn from the and ceilings, and windows and plants were thrown twenty feet.from the house. The atove was overturned,the furniture demolished and the doors shattered. . The doctor received bruises around the head andface. One the girls had her hearing destroyed, another a poe eeoxen and the two remaining had arms . Medical aid came at once.
