Cincinnati, Ohio, September 11. —Untied Stales Senator Plumb, of Kansas, bas come to Ohio to take part in the campaign, and regis tered at the Gibson bouse, in this city. In an interview be said: “There is much depending on the result of the October election in Ohio. I fear that there is too much confidence. Old-time repub licans say that the state bas always been republican in presidential yeats, and can never bo otherwise. Contenting themselves with this feeling they do not organize. Many of these republicans are like Indians, they like to bold a council and do a 'heap talkeo,’ but forget to organize. 1 am not confident about this state, but I am not alarm- •a." “But the news from Maine is cheering.’’ “Vos, but I am afraid that it will do barm by creating more confi dence; it may encourage, but it may encourage the wrong way. Yes, the Maine majority was fully up to expectations; republicans figured on about 10,000.’’ “How is the situation in your own state?" “Oh, we had some little prohibi- lion trouble there once, but it was within the republican parly. We are all right now and will give Blaine 50,000 majority." “How about Iowa?” “She will not do ns well as in 1880, because of the local prohibi tion troubles.” “And Wisconsin?” “Both Wisconsin and Michigan are doubtful stales tills time. I am afraid ol the result in each.” “Can their loss lie overcome by the gain of any southern states?” “No; I have.no faith in carrying West Virginia. Senator Kcnna thinks the democrats wilt carry it by 18,000. I think about 5,000— perhaps more.” “Then the republican hope is in Now York and Ohio?" “That’s about It.” Foo Chow, the scene of the recent great bombardment, has been described as tbo Boston of China. It has 800,000 inhabitants, with half as many more in its suburbs. It is a famous scat of learning. Over 3,000 literary graduates live there, together with 7,000 literary students. The city is as famous for mendicants as scholars, it is the paradise of tbo professional beggars. The king of these is worth $10,000—a vory comfortabio fortuno in China. Tbo people aro inveterate gamblers anil opium smokers. No less than 500 gambling dens and nearly as many opium “joints" flourish there, A passenger in nn Arizona rail road train was arrested by a Sheriff for a minor oflcnse a short time ago. Seoing a Judge playing poker in the smoking car with a brace of Colonels, the Sheriff pre vailed upon him to stop the game for a few minutes and try the pris- oner. Tho Judge did so, lined the prisoner $40, aud before an hour had passed away had cleaned out every Colonel on tho train. Then lie played a little game with the late prisoner, who promptly won all the Judge's pile and set tip the drinks for the crowd.
