Paxton, one of the most prominent producers *,f naval store* in the State his tur l>ent ne farm covering about 7,000 acre claims that his business ha been greatly in jured by the o|**ration* of the railroad com mission law of Georgia, Upon being inter viewed by capt. Waller, of the Thomasville Enterprise. Mr. Paxton *aid: “The great trouble in the way is simply this: We cannot ship low grades of rosins at all, lie*-au.se the railroads, underexisting laws, cannot afford to do so at anything like livingrate*. The ef fect is that we can only operate virgin forest* one year, and then must abandon them. If inferior rosins could be handled the forest* could lx- worked with profit at least 15 year*. I hat has been the experience for generations Past in North < arolina and elsewhere. The lo— to the country by the rapid exhaustion of our pine forests can hardly be estimated. The loss which result* from our inability to con tinue the manufacture of liie inferior grade* of rosins is the lorn of a steady annual income to the country. If the pine tree* could be ui ilizetl year after year, and it were profitable to prote< t them from the ravage* of fire, they ‘ otild lie retailed every few year*. Once burned. however, they are worth !e-s for naval stores purpose* ever afterwards. The individual losses to distil lers. too, can hardly be estimated, as prices vary, -sometime* the profits would he greater, -om< times Is**, but the average receipt* from tin- source would always be considerable. At pre-ent the losse* mus't always be great, as every year the old boxes, now useless, might easily be made profitable. Being ready cut, there would lie nothing to do hut cultivate them. I attribute this to the railway com mission law as it stands at present, and to the action of the commission in their regulation of rates. The rates of the railways have fre lucnlly lieen too high for a profitable produc tion of naval store*: but formerly when this " * ■ shown, the companies would equalize matter-by allowing us rebates. Under the pre-ent laws, however, they cannot do this. The Itailwav Commission cannot force the railway companies to transport inferior ros ins at lower rate*, so as to make their produc tion profitable, without increasing the rates on higher grades, because the commission re quires the company to regulate their rates according to distance, and as the rates now from -hori distances from .Savannah amount to almost nothing, the companies must he al lowed enough on long hauls to make up their losses on short distances. The commission require this to prevent, as they say, unju-t discrimination against any point. If the rates were reduced to us, they would, on a basis of distance, run out to nothing before ■savannah was reached. The railway com mission law has worked and is working very di-astrously to the naval -tores interests of .South Georgia. If the pres ent condition of affairs continues the industry mii-t be wound up. lb-fore the coinnii-siou law existed we paid ID cents per barrel from Ocbioekonec to savannah. Now we payißl, cents, or a difference of It** cen’s per barrel. Tin* makes me pay on an annual average pro duct of about k.i w) barrels 11,'sina yt ar more than the railway company wanted me to pay w hen they hel control of their own business, and in those days the industry had not as sumed anything iike its present proportions, and naval stores brought better prices. I*er soually, I am in favor of going back to first principles and allowing the roads to matuge tbelr own affair*. I'he commission does not know anything at all about the nature and requirements of the naval stores industry. I don’t suppose they know the real difference between a barrel of pitch and a barrel ol rosin, or the process and cost of making either. Therefore itisimpo-- sible for them to properly regulate rates, ft w ill take but a few years under the existing Mate of affairs for the whole pine section of southern Georgia to be exhausted, the forests to !• worthless, and the manufactureof naval -tore* to le an obsolete business. Last year there was an immense overproduction of vir gin rosins because of the unprofitableness of turning out inferior grades. This not only caused 10-s to producers and low price*, but has also caused a rapid and useless exhaustion of our pine forest*.” FLORIDA. There are alsnit li‘> scholars in Gaines ville'* public school. It is estimated that Lake de Funiak will ship :iUO bales of cotton this season. The drought is cutting short the yield of su gar cane ami potatoes in Jackson county. The name of the po-t office heretofore known a* Gnielle. Fla., has been changed to Ro chelle.

A TALK WITH MRS. LOUliWOOl). Her Conversation ami Dignified Views oil Public Men. Mrs. Belva Lockwood said yesterday, says a Washington sjieeial of Sept. 30, that it was true she hail invited the other Presidential candidates to a conference at Wheeling, W. Va., on Oct. 10. She said it was for the purpose of coming to some un derstanding, so that scandal should be eliminated from the campaign and the contest fought out on principles. Bhe said she felt that she could take a position in the matter, because she is the only one of the Presidential candidates that terri ble stories were not circulated about. Mrs. Lockwood said she was more and more mixed up every day as to the rela tive strength of the parties, and could not tell just now who is truing to b* elected President, but that they all had hoi>es. She said there is only one thing certain about the entire campaign, and that was that the candidates ot the equal rights partv were the lest looking. “Now,” said she, handing a photograph, “there is a photo,raph of Mrs. Stowe,ol California, wbo has been nominated for Vice Presi dent on the ticket with xne. She is an un usually band some lady, and it is gener al!) admitted that the candidate for Presi dent is not bad looking.” •■i am still receiving letters,” she con tinued, “by the hundreds asking tor amo ral'hs. photographs and documents, and some of them are very interesting. Now here is one Iroiu a man in Chicago. He addresses me as Miss Lockwood, and says that he would like to vote for me, but that he is afraid that 1 am not old enough to be President. Why, l ant Just exactly ihe right age. I am not very old either, but I atn old enough to have taught Representative George A. post, of Pennsylvania, who makes a speech in Baltimore to-night, when he wa* a boy.

It is uot true, however, that ’Mr. Cleveland ever attended my school, as some of the papers have stated. 1 know all the other candidates well, but 1 have never even seen Mr. Cleveland. There is one thing that can be said also, and that ifi that I have received en couraging letter* from women and men from every Southern state, notwithstand- : n'" it is thought people down there are oa*rt \ -Bound and non-progressive. The only annonymoU* Liter I have received out of them all wa signed ‘Ameneus, and came from Baltimore.

HIS RECEPTION THE MOST EN THI SIATIC OF THE FALL. All the Principal Cities Between Albany and Buff alo Pay their Tribute to the Passing Candidate—Men of all Parties Participate in the Reception at his Home. Buffalo, Oct. 2.—Gov. Cleveland and party left Albany for Buffalo at 1:20 o’clock this afternoon on a special train, consist ing of an engine and one drawing-room ear. The party consisted of Erastus Corning. Mayor Banks of Albany, Hon. S. W. Rosendale, Gen. Austin Lathrop, Hon. John A. McCall, anil several news paper representatives. A crowd of sev eral hundred persons had assembled at the station to see him off and these gave hitn an enthusiastic God speed. Ladies waved their handkerchiefs, men shouted and locomotive whistles were tooted. Gov. Cleveland stood on the rear platform and waved his adieus to the throng. The w eather, which bad been threatening all the morning, cleared off. and all the omens pointed to a prosperous and successful journey. At West Albany, where located are the great carshops of the New York Central Railroad, hundreds of workmen, fresh from forge and bench, waved greetings to the train as it whisked by, some of the men shouting, waving their grimy aprons and swinging their rrms. with their hands still bolding tools. The speed of the train averaged fifty miles an hour, and several miles were made at the rate of City-five seconds to the mile. The greeting of the assembled crowd at Utica was particularly cordial, and though Gov. Cleveland made his appear ance and bowed his acknowledgments, he made no remarks. He was in excellent health and spirits. SYRACUSE GOES WILD. The train was due in Syracuse at 4:35 o’clock, but pulled into' the city fifteen minutes ahead of time. An immense con course was at the depot, men, women and childen jostling each other in their at tempt to get a glimpse of the Governor. Hundreds of school boys, books and slates in hand, ran for blocks' up the track in the wake of the train from the Syracuse iron works. As the train passed at a slow speed through the city limits, workmen came out and waved enthusiastic greet ings. The depot in the vicinity of the train was packed, as were the streets leading to it. In answer to repeated calls. Gov. Cleveland appeared on the rear platform. Cheer after cheer greeted him. Gov. Cleveland lifted his bat and bowed his acknowledgments. The enthusiasm continued unabated while the train remained in the depot, which was just long enough to make a change of en gines. At Syracuse also a substitution of conductors was made. The following tele gram was handed to the Governor: Goc. Clti'fltind, on special train Central Depot, Syracuse : t our tiuic to l tic* was immense. *o I oiilv caught a glimpse. Vou are maxing bigger time towarU* Washington. Burn this. E. I’kkntis Bailey. Bailey is editor of the Utica Observer. A special train consisting of twenty-four cars with the Syracuse Phalanx and es cort, two leading Democratic campaign organizations, each 100 strong, with about too citizens, left Syracuse at 11 a. m. lor Buffalo. OFF FOR ROCHESTER. Gov. Cleveland’s special train steamed out of the depot just on time. The Gover nor was standing on the platform and acknowledged the greeting as long as he remained in sight of the people. Ro chester was reached at G p. m. At the depot, in spite of the fact that a drizzling ram was falling, several hundred people congregated. Go\. Cleveland ap lieared on the rear platform and was cheered to the echo. It was learned that a few hours previous a special train of 27 cars, carrying numerous representa tives of Democratic campaign organiza tion*, and several hundred citizens had left Rochester for Buffalo to participate in the grand demonstration in the Gover nor's honor. The weather continued very disagreeable, rain falling in a determined Irizzle. Notwithstanding this, three car loads of the representative citizens of Buffalo boarded the train at 4:30 for Batavia to meet the train which was to bring Gov. Cleveland and bis party to Buffalo. AN OVATION AT BATAVIA. There were present a large immlier of Independent Republicans and others who are usually unknown in politics—business men, bankers, live stock dealers, merchants, representing the business community of Buffalo. There was a feel ing of great determination among the representative men that is seldom seen. Tlie reception given to tho Governor was a warmly cordial one. The Governor was in excellent spirits, and the arrival of the train at Batavia was received with cheers, the different organizations crowding around the ear and shout ing lor" Cleveland. As he appeared on th? platform, hat in hand, such cheers a* Batavia never before heard went up, the Governor smiling and simply content ing himself with bowing his thanks. Men without distinction of party crowded to the platform to shake his hand. The train stopped but a few minutes. The special train which had brought the Buffalo gation was attached, and the train sped on its way to Buffalo. Kn route the Gov ernor went tlirougU the train chatting pleasantly w ith friends and neighbors and receiving their many congratulations. THE ARRIVAL AT BUFFALO. The train iiearing the Governor and partv arrived in East Buffalo at 8:15 o’clock, 5 minutes ahead of time. The first loud voiced welcome was tho con tinous shrieks of locomotive whistles. The train steamed slowlv into the depot, which was reached at 8:35 o’clock. A drizzling rain which set in etrly in the morning and continued with but brief intermissions throughout the whole day was still falling, but seen-ed to have no terrors for the multitudt who thronged the streets leading to tbe dspot, and the depot itself, until they were tb solutelv impassable. Tumultuous ehei-. ing greeted the Governor’* car, and tht din was kept up without inter mission everywhere until after its arrival into tbe depot. The Governor’s appearance on the plat form of the car was a signal tor renewed cheering. Together with the party that had accompanied him, the Governor walked to the Exchange street entrance to the depot, where a handsomely deco rated coach, to which were attached eight white horses, driven by a liyeried coachman, was in waiting. The Governor, accompanied by Mayor J. Scoville, Hon. Daniel N. Lockwood, who nominated Cleveland at Chicago, and Winfield Robins, of Buffalo, stepped into the vehicle, which at once joined a grand pro cession on Michigan street. A CONTINUOUS OVATION, llis progress was one continued ova tion. Tne principal streets were jammed, sidewalk and street, with a cosmopolitan crowd. Men and women stood, many of them without protection from the rain, waiting for the procession to pass, There was little jostling and no disturbance. Democrats. Republicans, and men of ev ery shade of political belief vied with each other in honoring their distinguished fel low citizen. Republicans cheered as loudly as Democrats, seeming to forget their "political differences in the grand en thusiasm of the hour. The streets throughout the line of march were crowd ed with thousands. Stores and houses were illuminated as never before seen in Buffalo, Chinese lanterns in profuse abundance hung from windows, etc., in elaborate style. On Main street the sight was truly inspiring, as it was also on many others. Roman candles were profusely burned, sky rockets lit up the scene, while people cheered themselves hoarse. At the Gene see House, on the side of which in bold letters hung a huge transparency in scribed. “Our Citizen Governor and Presi dent-Buffalo Greets Thee,” tbe sight was a >*rand one. From Exchange street to HOta street, a distance of three miles, everv store was decorated with lanterns. The German insurance building, tbe stores of Barnes, Bancroft, etc., were one mass of elaborate decorations. Down Genesee street tor a mile was one blaze of light. Some little delay was caused in the moving, and at 9:30 o’clock, in the face of the rain, the procession started. The appearance of the Governor in his chariot with an honorary guard, composed of 16 members of the Cleveland Phalanx, was the signal for cheers, the Governor standing and, with bared head, bowing to the great multitude present. Arming at the Genesee House, his car riage halted for a moment, and then pro ceeded in the line of march. SOME OF THE TRANSPARENCIES. Among the many transparencies were: “A public otfice is a secret.” “We owe much to the German element among the people.” “This is the reverend doctor (with a representation in brackets of a large black ball) to go over the falls.” SAVANNAH, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1884. “W'e are bound to conquer.'* “No Maine law for us.” “W e don’t have to cast an anchor to windward.” “Protect American labor by voting for Cleveland.” “Destiny is on the side of right.” “Republican promises—high taritl' and low bread. Republican results—no work, no bread.” ”3.000 workmen unemployed.” ‘•Burn these letters.” It was lo minutes past 11 o’clock when the Governor’s carriage arrived again op posite the Gent see House, and still the columns passed without any apparent in dications that the end was near. The Governor and party alighted and entered the hotel, and it was nearly three-quar ters of an hour before the last organiza tion passed. The column was two hours and ten minutes in passing the Genesee House, and it is estimated that there were tuliv 15,000 persons in line. In the square opposite the Genesee House many thousands had congregated, and the appearance of the Governor on the platform was the signal for wild and tu multuous cheering that fairly made the buildings tremble. 1 lie Governor stood with thequncovered 70-years-of-age Presi dent of the Manufacturers’and Traders Bank, and the oldest banker in the city as well as the oldest < x-conduetor in the country, who welcomed him to the city. MR. MARTIN’S SPEECH. Mr. Martin said: Gov. Cleveland, in behaif of the thronging multi'ude of your old friend* ami neighbors, I welcome you home to-uight. Vou came to oar city a boy; you learned your profession tiere, and lor more Hum twenty years you have gone in and out before u* respected and trusted and honored b> nil.

Singleness of purpose, rigid honesty, a faithful discharge of duty, unpretentious, yet ever watchful and careful of the public iMerests which marked your administration’ of our local affairs, led the people of this proud State, by an unexcelled majority, to elect you as their Chief .Magistrate.

CLEVELAND’S RESPONSE. Gov. Cleveland responded as follows: Fellow-Citizens: I can hardiy tell the people of Buff alo how I rejoice to-night, and how grateful 1 am for this demons! rat ion of the confidence and esteem of my friends and fellow-citizens. 1 have reside'i many years among you and in this city, whcic ail my sne er ss in private life has been achieved, for nearly thirty years. To-night I come to you alter the longest ahs- nee that has oc curred in all lhat time, an I yet within the few weeks that have pas-ed since I saw you last, an event na* happened of supreme im portance to me and that plares me within the nation's gaze. The honor it las hr -oglu to me I ask my fellow-townsmen to share. I ac knowledge with grateful heart all that they in part have done for me. [Applause.] But two short vears ago you stood steadily by my side in every effort of mine, as chief execu tive of our city, to advance its interests and welfare. Whatever 1 was able to accomplish of value to this community was largely due to \our strong and intelligent support. Nor can I ever forget the generous indorsement yon gave my candidacy f r the high office which I now hold in the State, and I assure you that in its administration I have received no greater encouragement than the approval of my friends at home. LIFE’S PLEASANTEST EMOTIONS. What I have seen and heard to-night has touched me deeply. It tells me that my neigh bors are still my friends, and assures me th t I have not been altogether unsuccessful in my efforts to deserve their confidence and at tachment. In years to come I shall deem my self not far wrong if I still retain their good opinion, ami if surrounding cares and per plexities bring but anxiety aud vexa tion. 1 shall find solace ant comfort in the memory of days spent here and in recalling the kindness of ray Buffalo friends. But other friends arc here to night. and to all who tender their welcome I extend heartfelt greeting as citizens with me of the greatest commonwealth in the sisterhood of States, and one immensely in terested in the general weal. Because I love my State and her people. I can’t refrain from reminding y° u s,ie should lie in the van ol every movement which promises a safer and lietter administration, so closely related to her prosperity and greatness. [ Applause.] And let me leave you with the thought that your safety lies in impressing on the endeavor of those intrusted with the guardianship of your rights and interest, pure, perfect and exacting popular sentiment. Tlie character of government can hardly rise higher than tlie surface fr< m which it springs, and tlie in tegrity and faithfulness of public servants are not apt to be better ttian the people demand. [Great cheering.] THE 1’ ROCKSSION. The grand procession passed in review before him and his guests to Niagara square, where they dispersed. As column alter column passed,cheers loud and long were given. After the procession hail passed an informal reception was tendered the Governor at the Genesee House, and many ladies and representa tive men ol the city tendered their con gratulations.

Mrs. Local Also Keeps Them Company —Ciainnati's Enthusiasm. Cincinnati, Oct. s.— Gen. and Mrs. Logan arrivtd here to-day. Long before Mr. Blaine w;s accessible this morning, the hotel halls nd corridors were crowd ed by people atracted there by his pres ence and that of fen. Logan. As soon as Blaine's rooms we-e opened, callers be gan to pour in, and be pressure continued all tbe forenoon. Several delegations called to pay tLj r respects, one front the Irish-Amejcan Republican League, who PiT‘ Si oted resolutions and assurances of supDrtj one-represent ing the Republicans c Tennessee, one sent to urge Mr. Blaine visit the Louis ville Exposition, and one-epresentiugthe Jewish element. At 11 to o’clock Mr. Blaine was escorted to tb Chamber of Commerce where he was vey warmly re ceived. During the whole my admirers of Mr. Blaine kept his bea ( j Uartt , r g at the Burnett House extremelvrowded. During the day Mr. B!ai” e received delegations from Indiana, 11l. 10 is, Ken tucky, Louisiana, West Vir| n j a and Tennessee, who requested hit to visit their States. He consented to<r 0 to In diana, Illinois and West Virg*j a< and expressed regret that he could ot visit the other States named. In the ycning noth Blaine and Logan returned to toe Burnett House to review a great orc,l - procession which was pacing. Blaine’s appearance on the balconywas the signal lor an outburst of wild chars, which was several times renewed bef*re he was introduced. Ex-Congresaintn Butterwortn presented him as “the dis tinguished gentleman from Maine.’ 1 There was tremendous cheers, mixed with a lew faint hisses. BLAINE’S SPEECH. Mr. Blaine stood gazing on the scene till there was some approach to order, when he said- And no human voice could reach them be cause of the great crowd there. [Cheers.] J congratulate th? Republicans of Cincinnati on their numbers, upon their enthusiasm [cheers], upon their demonstration. [Cheers ] t thank them for their kindness, their cor diality and thc.r heartiness. As Blaine stepped back tbe crowd cheered and waved their hats and made all kinds of enthusiastic demonstrations. The Chairman then introduced Gen. Logan, who was received with great cheers. LOG AX’S SPEECH. Gen. Logan said that if the polls were open to-night and all present voted the Republican ticket Blaine and Logan would have a great majority. Then he went on to say a good word lor the Re publican State and Congressional tick ets. When he came to speak of the Republican candidate for the Presidency, he was proceeding to describe him when his voice was drowned by cries or “Blaine!” “Blaine!” “JamesG. Blaine!” After Gen. I.ogan finished Emorv Storrs and others made brief speeches before the head of the procession arrived. The pro cession began to pass the Burnett at 10 o'clock and moved at a swinging gait. The last company passed two hours later. It is estimated that 10,000 were in line. Blaine will go to Columbus to-morrow. BLAINE’S DATES. Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 2.—Blaine will go from West Virginia to Michigan, and will spend Oct. 14, 15, 10 aud 17 in that State. Oct. 18 and 19 will be devoted to rest and recuperation.

Alexandria, Va., Oct. 2.—The Demo cratic State Executive Committee ot Vir ginia issued an address to-day to the Democratic voters of that State*, setting forth the importance to the Common wealth of the results involved in the ap proaching national election, and urging earnest and thorough preparation for the stiuggle. The committee says: The position of Virginia in the Democratic column of the Union must lie retained, or the old state will reverse its past tradition, and imperil, t > a great degree, its present aud fu ture prospect* of moral, social ami material prosperity. Our very civilization ia at state. Not content with the platform aud principle* of the National Republican party, the man agement of that political organization in Vir ginia, through its chosen chief, has descended to the low plane of an attu k upon the Demo cratic party, in the allegation that the result of the la-t election was brought about by pre soneerted plans to intimidate colored voters by violence and bloodshed, as manifested by tlie unfortunate riot between the races at Danril e. This malignant charge is not only without foundation in fact and in truth, and umupp .rted hy any evidence which could inlluem e an impartial public sentiment, but is brought forward only to inllamc the passions and prejudice* of the colored people to induce them to throw tlieir vote* at the polls in inass against the Democratic party, ami to excite sectional animosities elsewhere. THE IDEAS OF CARPET-BAGGERS. It i* but a repetition of the policy pursued by carpet-bagger* of past years in which the negroes were sought to he used by concentra tion to dominate the majority element of the white population of the State. The whole thing in substance and effect means that a minority of the white people proiiosc to combine with tlie united negro vote to control the voice of Virginia and make it a Republican State. It means also, if success ful, supremacy hereafter in both State and Federal afi'airs, and the restoration to power of the party whose capacity for future mis chief will be only partially measured hy its past transactions and history. W'e appeal with confidence to the Democratic party of Virginia, which accomplished such glorious results in the last campaign, to look to their laurels, and to stand hy the cause. No ques tion of taiiff or of Federal policy must be pcrmittlil to divide our party at this time. More important and vital consequences to the people of Virginia and to the country are involved. There is every incentive to exer tion on the part of the Democratic party of Virginia, and its failure to respond at liiis crisis of our political fate would be the source of incalculable future loss, and of permanent State amt national injury. AEG WANT TO READ OF BLAINE. The Thinking Voters In tho Western Re serve Evidently on the Right Tuck. Washington, Oct. 2.—A very large mail was received at the Democratic headquarters this morning from ail parts of the country. The majority of the re quests for documents were for Mr. Post’s speeches concerning the Treasury ac counts and defalcations, the Mulligan letters and Curtin’s speeches upon the land question. The publication concern ing Blaine’s connection with tbe Kecking Valley coal mines is being extensively circulated in Ohio, and Neal Dow’s letter, which appeared this morning, in which the writer claims the result in Maine as a glorious victory for prohibition, and says that Blaine told him that ho refrained from voting ou that question at the urgent request of prominent Ohio Republicans on account oi tbe bigoted Germans, has all ready been telegraphed all through the ar.ti-Prouibition section of the State. The editor of the Rock Rapid Itenievo writes to Secretary Post that lowa can be carried for Cleveland if the proper effort is made. He says that they do not need money, but wantdocuments.

He Return* to Louisville and Svi the Charges of Crowkedness Will he Ex ploded. Louisville. K y., Oct. 2.—lt has been made known by an official that duplicated receipts for 3,(XX) barrels of whisky have been found during the inves tigation into the affairs of the Newoomb- Buchanan Company. The Trust Com pany has refused to make public the names of the victims. George Buchanan, who has lieen missing since the assign ment, is supposed to be in the city. The Evening Times says: “We have lieen au thorized to state, on the authority of George Buchanan himself, that irregu larities in the business of the Newcomb- Kuchanan company in the matter of duplicated warehouse receipts involve from 4.000 to 5,000 barrels of whiskey, on which from $40,000 to $50,000 was realized, and that the books of the company will account for every dollar of money thus raised and show that every cent of it was tised in the company's efforts to tide over the breakers in which the firm was involved. Two years ago, when the Buchanans got an extension from their creditors, their liabilities amounted to $1,650,000. In these t\v i years they have paid off'ssso,ooo of the principal and from $200,000 to $250,000 in interest. They have delivered to customer* about 100,000 barrels of whisky, and of the 70,000 barrels now in bond no complications exist, except as to 4,000 or 5,000 barrels. They lielieve that, bv careful administration, the assets will pay off every dollar of both corporate and individual debts, and that if the reasonable expectation of uneariy revival in the trade is lultilled there will lie a surplus over all liabilities. These statements are from Buchanan himself, and may be relied upon as authentic and true to the best of his knowledge.” BUSINESS COMPLICATIONS.

Nathan Emanuel, a broker of this city, was arrested this afternoon at tbe in stance of a firm at Cleveland, Ohio, and is now confined a; police headquarters. The cause ot his detention seems to be that Emanuel has sold about $1,500 worth of cotton bagging for the Cleve land firm and fails to produce the cash or its equivalent. The bagging, it is said, was shipped to Emanuel at Atlanta last year, and although frequently asked to render a bill of sale, he has failed to do so.

This is said to be the second transaction of this character that has gotten him into trou ble. PORTFOLIOS AND .JUDGKSHIPB. Curbstone Gossip* l’laylni* Shuttlecock With High Public Offices. Washington, Oct. 2.—The curbstone gossips are hard at work.

He is not in the city. lie is, however, expected to arrive here within a few days, by his old friend Secretary Gresham, to whom he promised a visit at this time long ago. His visit has no significance in connec tion with his successor. It was planned long before his resignation was tendered. It was announced to day by the gossips that the Presi dent would return to-morrow and that a Cabinet meeting would then be held to consider the present vacancy and pos sible future vacancies in the Cabinet. This story was all very well until it was discredited at the White House. The President had not sent tbe usual message under which the necessary preparations for his return would lie made, and the more important letters in his mail would as usual he forwarded to him, this even ing, at Secretary Frelinghuysen’s home in New Jersey. To-night it is said that the President will return on Saturday. Mean while, the gossips are drawing in the Mor ton rumor and putting out one to the ef fect lhat either Mr. Boutwell or Mr. Mc- Culloch will succeed Secretary Gresham. KHAXK CHANKR.AU DEAD.

He struggled desper ately and struck Mr. Brooks with his cane. Another scene followed in Induc ing him to reach his room. Miss Tracy followed him to the hotel, crying convul sively, but she succeeded In calming the actor and bringing him to realize that he would not ie in a condition to till engage ments for some time. Just what Mr. Mc- Cullough now intends to do could not be learned. AT ODDS OVER A MERIDIAN. The Belief General that no Agreement will be Reached by the International Conference. Washington, Oct. 2. —In the Prime Meridian Conference to-day, a resolution was adopted declaring It to bo the opin ion of the conference that a common prime meridian for all nations was de sirable. Prof. Rutherford, one of the United States delegates, offered a resolu tion proposing the meridian of Green wich tor adoption as the standard me ridian. This resolution met with consid erable opposition, particularly from the Frencli delegates. After a good deal of discussion, in the course of which the French delegates manifested some feeling and disposition to resist strenuously the adoption of Prof. Rutherford’s resolution, the conference adjourned to Monday, Oct. 6. The officers ot the United States Bureau ot Navigation express the opin ion that the conference will either adopt the meridian of Greenwich or come to no agreement whatever, as neither Great Britain nor the United States will consent to any other. Each of these governments, they say, has a large number of valuable charts which would he rendered partially useless if a change were made in the prime meridian, and the cost of altering them would be not less than £1,000,000 for Great Britain and $1,000,000 for the United States. Whether Congress would agreetosuch an expenditure for such a purpose is, they think, doubtful. One of the foreign dele gates expressed the opinion to-night that the conference would not be able to come to any agreement. The French delegates, be 6aid, manifested a determination not to consent to the recommendation of the meridian of Greenwich, and the repre sentativesof Great Britain and the United States would not, he thought, be satisfied with any meridian likely to meet the views of France.
