Mupplivs Needed for the Dentil sin—Trying to

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

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. The four

MORE SUFFERERS.
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

at a distance instead of here in Chicago
has been a disadvantage that has been felt.
I have none hut chivalrous feelings to

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

the fifth district. The disaffection against

Washington, October 19.—Senator
Henry W. Blair, of New Hampshire, says
that he had been making speeches in the
west, hut bad beeu called home to attend
the funeral of his colleague, Austin F.
Pike. “Mr. Pike’s death,” he added,
“eame without any warning. He was out
on his farm with' a friend, and had just
raised his hand to point out his boundary
line, when lie was struck down. 1 do not
know hut wbat it is better, or just ns well,
for one to die quickly after having passed
through life’s stormy passage. It saves
one’s friends a great deal of suffering and

will appoint temporarily to Mr. Pike’s
seat. Our legislature does not convene
until next summer. There is an abundance
of material in the Granite state for good
senators.”
“On my western trip I noticed that the
enthusiasm for Blaine had not abated, hut
was increasing, it seems to mo that he is
the strongest man in the republican party.

Little Rock, Ark., October 17.—The
colored newspaper editors of this state will
meet in annual convention in this city to
morrow, when permanent organization is
to be perfected.
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.
There are about thirty newspapers issued
in the state which are owned and edited by
| colored men, and all of them relloct credit
on their promoters. “Col.” Jar. ) edits the
1 leading weekly, the Arkansas Mansion, of
Little Rock, and he is to be master of eore-
moniev at tho meeting to-morrow. 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.
