NEW York, Sept 8.—Judge Thurman
awoke much refreshed at 10 o’clock this
morning, having slept continuously from
midnight. His stomach trouble has all dis
appeared and his good healthy color and
live interest In all that Is going on gives
evidence of the condition of his health.
His “choice Havanas” give him much
comfort. The morning opened rainy and
disagreeable, and some fears were ex
pressed as to the effect of the weather on
nis rheumatism. HA expressed himself as
ready for Newark this evening. Among
his few visitors last evening was J. W.

Judge Thurman is a wonderful man for
getting facts and general information
from his callers, and matters gathered In
that way seem never to be forgotten.

Newark, Hept. 8.—On regaining the
open air, Judge Thurman freshened up,
and on the cars spent the time by Bmoking
andlchaiting with no appearance of weak
ness. The neat in the rink was most in
tense.
Judge Thurman, nevertheless, made his
address to a tremendous audience. He
dwelt for a time on general subjects and
party politics. He then began on the
tariff question and detlned the different
party ideas on the subject, and discussed
especially the Mills bill. The heat was so
a bloody war, in which the four tribes in
tend to take part, seems imminent. Yes
terday afteruoin General Enger received
a telegram announcing that a war party
of Sioux Indians had left Popular river,
Montana Agency, to raid on the re^men
of the Crow Agency. He at once issued an
order to troop 15, 1st Cavalry, under com
mand of Lieutenant Brown, to move from
Fort Custer to Belle Mountain station,
Montana, for the purpose of watching the
crossings on tbe Yellow Stone, between
CusterJStation and Huntley, and coveri
the point especially where the party
Sioux Indians, on Yellow Stone, were re
cently killed by the Indian scouts.
The full strength of troop is embraced
in detail for this duty, and Lieutenant
Brown will take one hundred rounds of
carbine and twenty-four rounds of pistol
ammunition for each man. The troop
rived on a special train on the Florida
Railway and Navigation Company’s rail
road to-night from New Orleans! They
were transported free of charge by the
lines along the route. Liberal contribu
tions are coming in from all parts of the
country. Several physicians have arrived
from other places. Only men experienced
in the treatment of yellow fever are
needed. No unaclimated persons will,
therefore, be allowed to come into the
city. The prompt action of the President
in insisting on reform at Camp Perry, and
bis interest in Jacksonville and Florida,
are much appreciated here.
A special committee was appointed by strained by any po
he Citizens’ Association this morning to hibitory laws of Io 1
liquors daily in violation ot law.
Seizer's case was conducted by
ab.e counsel from the city of Carroll
and from Chicago. For the defease it
was admitted Sslzer was selling beer and
liquors, but in the original packages in
wnich such goods were received from an
other State; that his beer was all pur
chased in Wisconsin and his liquor in
Illinois; that under the Constitution of the
United States he had a right to import and
also to sell the imported liquors in the
package in which it was received, and
generally denying that he was governed
in his transactions or in any manner re
lics regulations, or pro-
owa, and, in conclusion,
not such as would recoil upon our owa
heads. He believed that he could demon
strate that the first section of the bill
would enure to the benefit of the Dominion
of Canada and the permanent and lasting
injury of the commerce of this country,
and of American labor. For this reason
he would vote against the bill, although
he was heartily in favor of the second sec-
5lr. McAdoo, of New Jersey, answering
the London Standard’s boast, said that
England’s modern ironclads would be as
impotent In our harbors as washtubs armed
with fire-crackers. He warned Mr. Salis
bury that the first British guu fired against
New York or Boston would assure the de
struction of the British empire.

The Storm In Mexico.
City of Mexico, via. Galveston, Sept.
—Vera Cruz dispatches state that
a cyclone struck there three days ago.
The wind was from the North and so it
continued until this morning when it
veered around to the Southeast. It was
blowing big gums, and rain accompanying
came down in torrents. Three large
vessels were driven ashore and wrecked
last night and several small crafts
were also lost; indeed, everything
within the influence of the storm was
damaged considerably. All steamers are
detained, and work on all wharves is sus
pended. The large freight bark Agricola
nas been wrecked just off the shore. The
crew are still on board and in a perilous
situation. Assistance cannot be sent them.
There is great excitement here in this city.
The weather following the cyclone is very
cold.
Later advices from Vera Cruz state that
the storm is increasing. A Mexican bark
has collided with the Spanish steamer
City of Cadiz. Both vessels are badly dam
aged. The crew of the wrecked French
bark, Agricola, have been saved. An
American steamer, in port, is in danger.

occupy the attention of the audience until
he was able to resume.
After this incident he gave his attention
to tbe subject of tho surplus and its reduc
tion.
There are but three ways, he said, in
which tfiis surplus can he reduced.
One is by extravagant expenditures of the
Government land—no man will say they
should do that; another is by the reduc
tion of the internal revenue—free whisky
and tobacco against free produce; tbe
third is by the reduction of tbe tariff on
Imported articles, and that is the doctrine
which the Democratic party advocate.
I hone you will advocate it, too. I hope
you will advocate that system which takes
from every man the taxation on every
thing he wears, ou everything that his
wife wears, on everything that his chii- 1
<lren wears, on every implement of trade.
Gentlemen, I am unable to proceed, and
i must thank you and give way to others.

Paragraphs anil Pithy Pickings From the
Political Pot.
Atlanta, Sept. 8.—The Republicans of
this Senatorial district went turough the
amusing little farce yesterday afternoon
of putting out a candidate against Frank
Uioe. The meeting was run by a few well
known local politicians of the colored per
suasion, and they settled upon Francis
Van Pelt to make the race, van Pelt is a
white man, a carpenter, an ex-Federal
soldier, chaplain of the Grand Army post
here, and will probably fill in the gap
about as well as any one who would have
accepted the uncertain honor. He will
poll a few white and nogro votes in Ful
ton, hut elsewhere in the district the vote
will be very scattering. A Cobb county
gentleman said to-day the negroes in tnat
county would not support Vau Pelt. But,
as the Republicans have no dream of his
election, it doesn’t matter whether they
vote for him or not. The sentiment of
the so-called convention was decidedly
hostile to the action of the central com
mittee at the recent gathering in Macon in
refusing to put out a full ticket.
Mr. Howell’* Platform.
Hon. Clark Howell, Jr., a candidate for
the legislature from Fulton, and a mem
ber of the last House, is out in a circular
letter to tbe voters of the county, an
nouncing that one of the controlling rea
sons for his desire to return to the Legis
lature is to secure its passage of a bill
granting to the Marietta and North Geor
gia railroad the right of extending its line
from Marietta to Atlanta. This letter con
tains a statement made by Hon. Patrick
Walsh, of Augusta, that the Chronicle
would support the measure when it comes
up again. This measure was before the
last House and was the occa
sion of a bitter fight, which ended

his intention to vote against the bill. Mr.
Wilson, of Minnesota, supported the bill.
He analyzed the act of 18S7 to
support his assertion that every mischief
and every injury which it was charged
would result to the people of the North
west from the enactment of the pending
bill, would have resulted to them by the
enforcement of the act of 1S87.
Mr. Lind, of Minnesota, ranged himself
with Mr. White, of New York, in declar
ing his opposition to tne bill. He said
that if the bill became a law, the President
could, by a single stroke of the pen, re
duce the value of sixty million bushels of
Minnesota aud Dakota wheat seven cents
a bushel. He could enhance the exactions
of the Northwestern railroad at least
twenty-five per cent. He could rob
Duluth of half her shipping. He
could ruin the trade of the twin
cities, the pride of Minnesota and of the
Northwest. He could cripple enterprising
men of the Northwest, but it was not on
account of selfish reasons that he would
vote against the bill. He would vote
against it because he believed that it was
and advocated the passage of the hill, as
necessary to the preservation of American
honor.
After speeches by Messrs Farquahar,
of New York, Seney, of Ohio, Hemlerson,
of Iowa, Caruth, of Kentuky aud Cum
mings, of New York, the debate closed,
and Mr. White, of New York, moved to

comments of the Italian press on the E n-

Bismarck has telegraphed to the Popo

addition of a half million men to the Gor

St. Paul, Sept. 8.—A Duluth special to
the Pioneer Press says the Secretary of the
Board of Trade has received to day the
following telegram from Chairman Austin,
of the State Board of Railroad and Ware
house Commissioners, in reply to an in
quiry whether wheat grades were to be
changed. No changes have yet been made
in tbe grades. Notice of a modification
will be given as soon as made. This was
taken by the members of the Board of
Trade as an indication that the rumored
changes were settled upon, and no little
consternation ensued. A general meeting
of the Board was held on the subject and a
communication with both local and State
boards of North Carolina, and have just
received information that Hendersonville
can take 500, and Saluda and Hickory and
other points smaller numbers. It is impos
sible to state accurately how many can go
to Hendersonville or other points around
there, but think if two days notice was
given that special train for refugees would
leave here for Hendersonville at least 200
will go. Have just received your tele
gram of this morning that a special train
will be provided for Hendersonville. Please
allow two days notice. Hope you can
make arrangements with the Tennessee
Board of Health, as many want to go in
that direction, and am pleased to hear of
the improvements to be made at Camp
Perry and that you will make your head
quarters there. We desire to work in har

The gentleman from Illinois conceded
that it had been abrogated by the action
of the Canadian Government,and whether
it died in the night or was killed in the
diy time by Canadian violence it was
scarcely worthy of discussion. The next
question was whether any treaty stipula
tions stood in the way of the passage
of legislation of this character.
I On this subject all was agreed now as to
the necessity of conferring additional
powers on the President. The gentleman
on the other side professed to be of one
mind, and yet it was conceded that after
the passage of the act of 1887 the Presi
dent was justified in withholding the exer
cise of the powers conferred upon him un
til the conclusion of the negotiations which
had oeen entered into by the United States
and Great Britain. Mr. Hill remarked
that it was not conceded. Mr. Cockran
thought that the gentleman’s language
was clearer than he believed, and the
views the gentleman entertained struggled
to his lips and found its expression in spite
of his diplomatic reserve. [Laughter.]
There was at least no open criticism of
the action of the President in suspending
the exercise of his powers until the conclu
sion of the negotiation. Though the gen
tleman from Illinois might not have bst.n.
He conceded the propriety of that action;
he did not believe that there would be
