Mupplivs Needed for the Dentil sin—Trying to Mtipply Their WnntN-Bodies Believed to lie Burled In the Mud. Galveston, October 19.—There is hard- % a living animal in the beautiful Arcadi an settlement of Johnson’s bayou. A week ago there were a thousand prospering and happy people in this settlement. To day it is a community of beggars. Some fami lies have been swept off entirely. There are innocent children without parents, rel atives or guardians. There is nothing in the settlement except what has been do nated by the charitable, except sunshine and standing room. The homes that have not been wrecked by the siorra have been desolated by the storm. It would be diffi cult to find a family not in mourning. The local relief committee that visited Sabine Pass and wentas far as the entrance to Johnson’s bayou has brought back a •omplete list of the names of colored per sons drowned at Sabine. Of the colored drowned thirty bodies are still missing,while all but fifteen whites have beeu recovered and interred. it is thought that some of these missing bodies are stuck In the mud, which is several feet in depth at the bottom of Sabine bay and the river fronting the spot where the town formerly stood. MEASURES FOR RELIEF •f the distressed are being actively pushed at Houston, Galveston and other cities. The Galveston committee, who returned last night, have issued a second appeal to thecitizens, and new subscription lists will be circulated to-morrow. Members of the local committee say the calamity grows with each hour. All tidings from the de vastated region make the disaster , far greater and more distressing than was at first thought possible. Mr. Tasker, of the committee, was one of a thousand or more who FLED FOR THEIR LIVES the night of Galveston’s great lire. He also recently visited the drouth stricken dis tricts of northwest Texas but, declares somewhat later under support . Louisville and Nashville has been siesilv and strong ' throughout the day.

Mie IV tin Is lliiir or ••Literary Life" ami Mure Sub ary—Publisher Elder Threatens to Krinyr the President, Miss Hose's Private Letters noil all the Family Into Court. * Chicago, October 19.—It is salcLpositive- ly that Miss Rose Elizabeth Cleveland, the president’s sister, has left the editorial chair of Literary Life, and that law suits for damages for violation of contract are to follow. Elder, the publisher, Is reported to have threatened, in the event of Miss Cleveland bringing suit, to make public all of her private correspondence and sum mon to the witness stand in defense Presi dent Cleveland and all the members of the Cleveland family. The trouble, it appears, was caused by Miss Cleveland’s demand for a larger share of the financial profits of the Literary Life, which have risen from next to noth ing to a very handsome figure. Elder proposes to visit Miss Cleveland at Hol land Patent and get her to moderate her demands. To-day he spoke very pleasant ly about her in an interview with the World correspondent, and declined to say that Miss Cleveland had yet left the maga zine, but. intimated that it was among the probabilities. He explained by saying; “The contract with Miss Cleveland ex pired virtually in October. It was for five years, but it was so drawn that either party was at liberty to suggest modifications of it at the end ot four months.

A special from Orange, Texas, says: The steamer Lamar returned here last evening from Sabine Pass with sixty additional sufferers, one-half of whom will go to Beaumont as soon as transportation can be obtained. The balance will remain here in care of local relief committees. Ten additional' bodies had beqn found and buried up to the time the Lamar left Sabine Pass at noon yesterdav. The relief committees of Orange have exhausted all their supplies and funds, and sufferers are constantly coming in. The relief commit tees have 330 now in their charge and 150 more were expected last night from John son’s Bayou, the Emily P. having gone for them yesterday morning. Unless more relief comes immediately great distress will prevail. Many of the suft'erers are sick and require the greatest attention. The citizens of Orange are doing all in their power to alleviate their suffering, but the demands are greater than they can bear. The relief committees were notified yesterday that $1000 had been do nated by Houston, which is all the aid that has been received outside of our town. Parties returning from the coast report that much thieving is going on. Scarcely a trunk, valise or package can be found that has not been broken open and rifled of its contents. Business has been at a stand still since the great storm. ’ CHARLESTON STEADY. regularly the first of every month. She has received a good deal of money during the four months, about $1100 in all. Her connec tion with the publication baa; benefited it more than I expected. She has brought it out of obscurity. I admit that. Her being at a distance instead of here in Chicago has been a disadvantage that has been felt. I have none hut chivalrous feelings to wards her. I feel, however, that she has done the magazine about all the good she can do it, nnri that from a business stand point it would not be wise to accede to the new terms she proposes. I am willing to continue the contract on the old terms and shall start east next Wednesday to see her about the matter.” “You feel that her services are not worth to tho magazine that which she now asks ?” “I wouldn’t like to put it that way. I don’t think her motives were mercenary. She is a remarkable woman, and has high and firm ideas. If men were all as she would have them they would be little short of angels. Though her ideas are of a positive character there has never been any fric tion in our correspondence in relation to the interests of the publication. I don't think there will be. Miss Cleveland his been in poor health and really unable to attend to the demands made upon her. Her mail increased to forty or fifty- letters a day, and her attention was required to a much greater extent than either of us expected. Then her home at the Weeds was burned, and that affected her in a depressing way. I understand that she intends to go to Washington and take charge of the President’s country | residence.

The president forced Mr. Shelley to revoke these appointments. This letter of his ailed forth wordy of burning praise from Indianapolis News Rep.) Chairman Henderson talked over the pnliticnl situation in this state with a News reporter this morning, giving such facts as he thought best to make public, and his own views from the information which had beeen obtained by himself and tho committee. Without indulging in sweep ing declarations and predictions, he gave some information which has; more than a passing interest. In answer to an inquiry | regarding a possible poll of the state, he . said: ’ “We have about completed what might be called a preliminary poll. hut. it is some what different from those of former years. We sent to euelicounty, blanks to be tilled out by the respective chairmen, giving in a general way the results of their local polls, and, in ease they were not ail com pleted, estimates as lo the probable results of the voting. Nearly nil ol these have been returned, hut the only figuring that has been done was on these returns from the first forty counties that came in. There may be room for a slight doubt as to their accuracy,'from the fact that in a number of counties the polls show a less number of voters than in .1881, which does not seem probable. Of course, Ibis being an off year, a comparatively light vote may be'expected on both sides, but a poll would not show this. Compared with the relative strength of tho two par ties two years ago, the polls give us gains, the average in the forty counties, if it holds good throughout tho state, indicat ing that we will have a plurality of be tween 11,000 and 12,000. A significant fact is that they show a decrease in the green back vote and a very marked increase in the prohibition vote, which, from present indications, will amount to 9000 or 10,000, almost three times as much us in 133-1. I am inclined to think that much of this ac cession will come from the greenbaekers, who have not kept up their organization, while the prohibitionists are already or ganized, with local tickets and all that, I believe, in about forty-five counties. The only anxiety I have had was early in tho campaign, when I feared a little ’that wo would not be able to get all our vote out, but the reports that I have since received indicate that we will. In fact, in the last week or so the interest in the campaign has in creased very decidedly. The issues are pretty well understood. The gerrymander won’t make a vote, not a single vote, for the republicans. 1 am confident of that. The old cry, ‘You’re another,’ can be used most effectively against them when they howl Injustice and disfranchisement, be cause of their gerrymanders when they were in power. They may be able to make something of an impression on the public mind by this state” treasury and insane hospital business, but I don’t believe it will amount to much. This alleged dis satisfaction among democrats regarding the administration is greatly overesti mated; tlie state ticket will not lie affected by it. The only disaffection that exists is local, that is against certain qongressmen, on account of the distribution of the pat ronage. Sotno of them may lose a few vote3 by it, but they will be traded off for candidates on the state ticket.” “How about the congressional outlook?” asked the reporter. “It is much better than it was a few weeks ago,” said Mr. Henderson. “The republicans will carry the sixth and ninth districts and probably the tenth, al though our people up there think they will beat Mr. Owen. I am confident that McCullough will he elected in the llr.il, although a very strong and bitter light is being made against him. O’Neil, of course, will be elected in the second. In the third matters ore considerably complicated. Since the withdrawal of Mr. Stoekslager Sir. Howard is regarded as the regular nominee, and will receive the support of the democracy. Marsh, you know, is r..li ning as an independent candidate, and will probably receive the indorsement of the republicans. I don’t think they can elect him, for he is not in good standing with his party, having been a bolter before now and this has hurt. him. Holman will he re turned from the fourth and Matson from the fifth district. The disaffection against _ the latter has practically fizzled out. Pus- j sihly a hundred democrats in the district I will vote against him for personal reasons, ! but he will get the votes of twice ! that many republicans whom he lias I favored hi one way and another, particu- ! larly in the matter of pensions. Bynum I is sure to be elected in this district, and i ) think there is no doubt about Lamb in the | eighth, as the party majority is large and j the only democratic disaffection against him is confined to a few men in Vigo and ! Clay counties. He is working night and | day and making a good canvass.

Too muen credit cannot he spread upon those of the colored race of tho south who since “freedom” have exerted themselves for the enlightened of themselves and those whom they would teach, and here in Arkansas people everywhere give the “brother quill-drivers in dark ’ respectful consideration, and all possible help is willingly extended their publications.

The : Mansion was started and managed for sev- i era! years by one of the more enlightened colored men in the south,named Simpkins, and he was unanimously elected as an hon orary member of tho white Press Associa- i tion, and was held in high distinction by the members thereof. He met with them in their annual conclaves in difioront cities of the state, and participated in their free I excursions, going a few years ago to Wash ington, where he was introduced to the president and members of his cabinet as 1 the iiqgi'O editor of the Arkansas Press As- I soeiation. But human nature is weak, and so Simp kins discovered, for one Sunday morning, when the people were all away to church, he got mixed up with his landlady’s four teen-year-old daughter In someway that created talk enough to disgust him with ; the town, and he departed. Since then nothing lias boon heard of the “honorary” colored brother editor. But the Mansion was not born to die, and to-day is the most influential paper in the state, with those ! whose interests it entere to. The meeting will last two days. LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONING.
