New York. Sept. 28.—Cluirman Ed¬
ward Murphy, jr,, of the democratic
-’.ate committee, called at the national
committee headquarters to-day, and had
a consultation with Col. Brice, to make
-.me that the state and national commit¬
tees should not interfere with each other
hi any way. Mr, Murphy was chairman
of the state committee last year, when
the democrats earned the state, though
a labor ticket polled 70,000 votes. This
year the democratic labor men have re¬
turned to their party, and will support
Cleveland, while the republican labor
date men of are their running a presidential candi¬
own. Chairman Murphy
expects a democratic plurality in the
state for Cleveland and Hill of 20.000 to
25.000.
The registration returns from Brook¬
lyn's first hay have come in. The in¬
crease over 1884 was 7,000. At this rate
the increase for the four days will be
25.000. The largest increase was in the
The Eighteenth ward, which is democratic,
gain there was-over 1,000. Brooklyn
is strongly democratic, and if the pro¬
portion of new voters is the same as of
old, Cleveland will be the gainer from
3,000 te 7,000 votes. As much of the in¬
crease is in republican wards, it is not
fair, perhaps, to take the higher figures
and assume a proportionate increase of
over 4,000. New York city’s registration
has not yet begun, but it will be the
heaviest known, especially if there is a
three-cornered local fight.
The Cleveland and Thurman dry goods
club ha3 over 4,000 signatures. Unlike
the republicans, every man who signs
now signs the name of his firm, so there
can be no doubt about the genuineness
of the signatures.
A well known business man who is a
member of the Cleveland and Thurman
wholesale dry goods club offers to make
these wagers: One thousand dollars to
$5,000 that Cleveland will have 237 elec¬
toral votes, or more; $500 to $2,500 that
Cleveland will carry Illinois; $500 to
$1,500 that Cleveland will carry Califor¬
nia, and $5,000 even on the general elec¬
tion. He is willing to wager smaller
amounts in sums not less than $50 at the
same odds. The gentleman's name can
be obtained from the secretary of the
Cleveland and Thurman wholesale dry
goods club at 343 Broadway.
The most interesting bit of news out¬
side minds, oj the really money question, important, and in many the
more was to
effect that ex-Senator William H. Bar-
num was on deck, and would begin to¬
morrow steady work at headquarters.
In his own language, he is enlisted for
the campaign until Cleveland is elected,
a result that Connecticut, full exent of he her promises, weight
will aid to the
in the electoral college. As chairman of
the national committee Mr. Barnum
raally ranks Col. Brice, who is chairman
of the campaign committee. But he was
