THE POLITICAL FIELD.
Cleveland** Chance*.
New York, October B.—[Special.j—The
feeling among democrats here is mrnnger to
day than it has 1 ru since the campaign, that
Cleveland vill carry Now lurk stale. It is a
reaction that has alarnie! the republicans.
The deitn crate have made a canvass of the
time and the r< pons front the various counties
are reassuring.
Three v. ' s ago the outlook was not the
brightest. Every day some prominent poli
tician returns from a trip in tlm interior of the
stall : and makes a favorable report. Not
politicians nluno, but farmers and business
men deciare that Cleveland will poll a much
larger tote than he did in 1884.

THE. HUSH VOTE.
Cleveland will get the Irish vote that went
to Mr. 11l inc in 1884. I had a conversation

j’.rooklyn. Ho i.i a member of several big
Irish clulis and voted for Blaine in 1881. “The

by Mr. Bia: ' N attitude. Ho would support

when be u.i berause ho thinks his party big

Mr. Gorman Hpenks.
NV Asnr- c roN, October 10.—[Special.]—
In is tipen h at Sykesville, Maryland, yester
day, Senator Gorman said : "I an awaro that
the i neiny bus eir dated reports that, there is
doubt of the result, because of some local ditll
cultlos in New York, but I want to say to you
that these have existed in every presidential
election since the w ar. While I have not had
tho opportunity of going into tho details of
this campaign as I did in 1884, I have been on
the ground mid looked tho field over, and I
say today, and 1 slake my political reputation
upon tho statement, that tho parly is twenty
five per cent better off today in Now York
than it was this time four years ago.”
Mr. Gorman returned hero this morning,
and upon being asked on what grounds ho
based his ns-ertion, M>*d :
“In 1884. John Kelly and bls great Tammany
organization were hostile to Mr. Clevolainf,
and m onied «o until just before tho election,
Senator G indy not only did not work (or Mr.
Cleveland, but lie wont over to the enotoy,and
Mr. Bourke ( >okr hi did not innko a speech In
behalf of the democratic candidate. Tholr ac
tion lost us nt least 35,000 votes among the
Irish. Kven under these conditions the presi
dential ticket had 45,000 majority in Now
York City. Tho condition of affairs today is
different. Tammany is for Cleveland to a
man, although tberc may boa disagreement an
to the mayoralty, The county democracy is
for the president earnestly and faithfully.
There will be no cutting the presidential
ticket by either of these organizations
and Mr. Cockran is as energetic in
the campaign today as was John It. Follows
nt 1881. tin the 18th day of October in 1884,
the buslm s men’s parade consisted of 16,000
men, enrolled in companies of 100 each. Had
tho We dher been Imo lint Saturday, 2.5,000
mon actu i .ly engaged in business, and whoso
names were known nt headquarters, would
have pari icipatod in the demonstration which
was l>. biv. e preceded tho speeches of Secretary
J air child and Kcpresimtativo Wilson.”
"" i i( d i you estimate the democratic ma
jorltv in Xra York city?”
"There will bo at least 350,000 or 260,000
votes ca t in New York city at the next elec
tion. 1 p'c l.ct that the democrats will cast
25.1«i0 more votes than they did four years
ago.”

“There aie tour or live sen..tors on each side,”

Senate is that a number of the members arc
holding back, not caring to speak until tho

them have already delivered spec, lies on tho
general tariff question and probably by tiro
middle of next Week all those desiring yet to
speak on the general question w >ll have been

"Do you then propose to commence the con
sideration of the bill by sections,” I asked.
“Well,'’ 1.0 replied, "that depends some

Democrats In Council.
New York, October 10.—'Special.]—Many
| prominent democrats from different -tats s are
in the city to attend a meeting of the demo
■ e.atic national exe< utivo committee tomorrow.
They are either n ’ mb. rs < f the < unniiit e or
belong to the advr-ory board. O. I*. ISheeriii, of
Indiana; O. M. Barnes, of Michigan . J Im B.
Barbour, of Virginia; John I. Mile!.ell, es
Wisconsin; J. J. Kieharuson, of lowa, and
Chairman Barnum, representing Count• th tit,
wi re some of the more prominent. It is un
der: tood that the meeting tomorrow will thor
oughly
ntsorss THE OUTLOOK.
and decide w hero tho hard work will have to
be done between now and the election. Mr.
Shoorin is c.oniideut that India' a will give
Cleveland a handsome majority. Mr. Barnum
declared that Connecticut, with tho aid of
active work, could be carried for the national
demociatic ticket.
Tho result til the charter elections in some of
tbo tow’ns in New Jersey yesterday has given
the democrats great confidence in their ability
to carry that slate by at least lO.fXXI majority.
Newark, which usually gives a republican
majority, rolled up a democratic majority of
1,000. For some time past the republicans
have boon claiming that they wore going to
carry Now Jersey. Now it is thought tho
claim was made merely to bleed the republi
can naUonal committee, and distribute the
boodle among state politicians.
CHAIRMAN QUAY’S MEKTINO.
Much has been said about Chairman Quay's
little seance: yesterday at tho Fifth avenue ho
tel with twenty-seven business men, who arc
supposed to have enough superfluous cash to
shell out liberally for the republican campaign.
It is said that Pennsylvania politicians told
them that they had to do two things or lose
New York: First, they had to help raise
money, and then they had to go to the polls
and see that the republicans had fair play in
this city. His meeting was a failure, and was
the cause of snubbipg two republican politi
cians, one of whom, cx-Sonator .Stephen W.
Dorsey, has more political sagacity in one
minute: than Quay lias in a week. Jay A.
Hubbell, of Michigan, ami Mr. Dorsey, asked
to bo admitted to the meeting and were re
fused. Quay doesn’t try to do much, but what
ho doos ho bungles it. without the least effort.
It may not be known, but Senator Quay and
tho republican national committee did not
want Mr. Blalno to go to Indiana. But the
magnetic statesmen would not listen to any
objections.
SICK OF BLAINE.
Now tho nows from the hoosier state is that
a number of republicans there are kicking like
mad steers against Mr. Blaine’s visit. They
have telegraphed to Senator Quay and asked
him if ho knew that Mr. Blaine telegraphed
once to Indiana to his lawyer, who was to try
tho plumed knight's libel case before a repub
lican judge, saying ho could not got justice
there. They further informed Matthew Quay
that the democrats intended to placard every
city with Mr. Blaine's slur on tho justice of
Indiana. Quay wishes Mr. Blaine had re
mained in Europe. Anna Dickinson is another
Jonah to the republican party that Mr. Quay
doos not take any stock in.
Judge T hurman Iteturns Horne.
Washington,October 11. -Judge Thurman,
accompanied by his son and B. 8. Cowen, of
the associated press, left Washington at ten
o'clock tonight for Lis borne at Columbus,
Ohio, in >1 special car attached to the Chicago
and Pittsburg express of tho Baltimore and
Ohio railroad.
New York's Republican Ticket.
New York, October 11.—Tho republicans
made the following nominations tonight:
Joel B. Erhardt for mayor, John W. Jacobus
for sheriff, Colonel Henry C. Perley for county
dork.
Cleveland all Right.
New Y’ork, October 12.—[Special.]—The
democrats have the republicans on the run.
A sure proof that the republicans are desper
ate i« the tricks,and in one instance,downright
fofgery, they are resorting to to change the
tide against them. There is a Harrison and
Morton dry goodsVlnbon Broadwaythat.lf com
plaints bo true, and there is little doubt about
it, which dally circulates cards bearing tbo
forged opinion, attributed to the Ixmdon Spec
tator, that “Grover Cleveland has done more
to advance the cause of fieo trade than any
prime minister of England h:n over done.”
The BpeCtatbr has pronounced it bogus,doclur
ipg that nd such utterance over appeared
in the paper. In tbo faco of this denial the
cards are distributed just the same. Instead
of a campaign of intellect, as Colonel Brice,
chairman of tho democratic national
executive committee, once termed it,
ns far as the ropublicanslare concerned, it has
degenerated into n campaign of lies. Quay,
the boss of Pennsylvania, is bringing nil of his
peculiar methods into action. His offer of
825,(XJ0, as a reward for the discovery of
frauds in registration, is considered buncombe
bj I'Min tlm republleaas.
Ono of their schemes is to colonize voters in
counties in this state adjoining Pennsylvania.
The democrats have checkmated their plans
at every turn. Senator Quay, tho taciturn
head of the republic in campaign, Is an un
happy man today. Two things disturb his
peace. The democratic papers discovered
that ho sought advice from Jay A. Hubbell
mid ex-Senntor Stephen W. Dorsey, tworo
publienhs Who ouce carried Indiana. It is al
leged with the free use of crisp two-dollar bills.
Mr. Ouay is afraid tho report might drive tho
silk stocking republicans away from tho re
publican fold, or at least make them more
apathetic than usual.
Another thing that upsets bls equanimity,
so it is currently reported, ii Levi I’. Morton’s
desire, which means demand, that the repub
licans national committee send money to
North Carolina to help carry that state for
Harrison, but more especially to elect state
officers it is alleged that Mr. Morton’s pain
ful desire to carry North Carolina results from
the fact that his banking linn owns many
millions of North Carolina bi nds, issued dur
ing carpetbag days for railroads that were
never built. Mr. ’Morton, so tho story goes,
bought these Ixmds for a song. If the state
goes republican, the chances aroliis bonds will
lie morn valuable. Mr. Quay thinks it very
bard that he should have to boodlei o
a dead sure democratic state to make worth
less bonds valuable.
Senator Gorman, of Maryland, is at demo
cratic headquarters now assisting to conduct
the campaign. He and tho president are good
friends now, and the latter has groat confi
dence in his political sagacity. Mr. Gorman
is directing tho campaign with unusual vigor.
THE CHARTER ELECTIONS.
The recent democratic victory in tho charter
clooticu in the city i t Newark, N. J., a largo
manufacturing place, is considered a largo
straw to indicate tho drift. Hitlu rto Newark
lias gone republican. The republicans, 1 learn
upon reliable authority, have given up Now
Jersey. They don’t intend to spend another
cent in the effort to carry it. They are in de
spair about Indiana. Major John C. New, of
Indianapolis, one of tho most solid and
bitter republicans, two months ago claimed
that Indiana would give Harrison 25,(XX). lie
made a trip through tlm state recently and
now languidly assorts that it will probably
filvc Harrison 10,1X4) majority. Other repub
cans who know the general's optimism, say
that bo puts the tigures only nt 10,(8X1. It
means that Indiana will give Cleveland at
least 5,000, bucauso lie always claims over 50
pur cent.

Hill, of Now York, addressed a great inci ting
of democrats here today. In tho course of his

My friends, it Is too late. The cry for tariff reform,
which has been spreading over this country, has
received such an impetus that it will again place

by misstatements. I notice that t/iu distinguished
gentleman from Maine, who is now in this state, is
telling the people that all your prosperity is due to
the high protective tariff. You would have no crop
but for the tariff, 1 suppose. [Laughter.] Your popu
lation would not have increased but for the tariff.
Your lands would not have been cleared, your
farms would not have been cultivated, except for

than claptrap, audit will not deceive the intelligent
people of this state.
Indianapolis, October 12.—Governor Hill
and party arrived tonight. He made brief
speecnes at Seymour and elsewhere on tbo
route. He said at Seymour:
Fellow-citizens: I thank you for this cordial
greeting. Four years ago our opponents predicted
that the country would be ruined by the advent of
the democratic party to power. They pre
dicted that wo would assume tho confederate
debts [laughter]; that we would repudiate the
national debt; that the colored people would be
restored to slavery; that the Industries of the coun
try would he paralyzed, and disaster or every kind
would overtake this land. Today we can say that
all those predictions of our adversaries have come
to nau/ht. Wo have now had three and a half
years of wise s alesmanship. In the administration
of public affairs in the last thirty or forty years
there has not been one equal to that given us
by Grover Cleveland, our president. [Enthusiastic
cheering.] The question which is now presented is
whether there shall be a change of administration.
I think that the business interests ot the country are
satisfied with the present administration. Tho
country is reasonably prosperous. Our industries
are flourishing. Our people, in the main, aro re
ceiving good wa-cs, and everywhere thcro Is con
tentment. No one, no matter how bitter partisan
he may be, doubts the sincerity of the president. He
may have made mistakes. I cannot recall
what they ’are. He has submitted to the
people suggestions in regard to the tariff. What ho
proposes is the best interest of this land. 'T’he dem
ocratic party proposes to relievo tho people from
the burden of unnecessary taxation. That, my
Irlendsjis the issue of the hour. We believe that
under the present system, rather under the high
tariff, we are raising an unnecessary amount of
revenue In this country. Wo believe that the place
for the surplus taxes is in tho pockets of the people,
and not in the federal treasury. We believe reduc
tion should be made, and we believe it can bo
accomplished! without injuring any industry, and
without injuring the wages of a single laboring
man. We want tho system so adjusted that tho
people may have the benefits of moderate taxation.
1 am satisfied that the people of Indiana appreciate
tho importance of this campaign, and that you ] r >■
peso to do your duty. It Is Impossible in this
weather to s]>eak at any length. I thank you for
tho compliment which you pay me and the friends
who accompany me by coming out to bear what
little we have to say on this inclement afternoon.

The Campaign Eund.
Washington, October 9.—[Special.]—Rep
resentative Win. L. ’ Scott, of Pennsylvania,
said today, in regard to the contributions to
the democratic campaign fund: “There has
been much misrepresentation as to tho condi
tion ot tlio part; finances. It has been pub
llsltcd everywhere that wo have had nearly a
half million dollars. Tho fact is, we have not
had half of it. The only money wo have re
ceived of any amount in tho way of subscrip
tions was the contributions of the president,
the members of the cabinet, myself and
a few wealthy democrats. We have not re
ceived from Washington, all told, over tivo
thousaiid dollars, nor have the federal office
holderslin other localities been any more lib
eral. Then how do you expect to keep the
machinery going and succeed on the issues
You must remembar that Now Y'ork, New
Jersey and Connecticut are democratic states,
and we expect to increase the majorities in
each of those states.”
All of tho appropriation bills havo now been
disposed of in conference, ami although Mr.
Dougherty called “no quorum” on the last of
them, the deficiency bill, today, it will un
doubtedly become a inw before the ene of tiro
week. The statement printed some time ago,
in these dispatches, as to the largo aggregate
of the appropriations, flnds full verification in
the result. At that time there was a very gen
eral impression that tho surplus was being
disposed of too rapidly, but notwithstanding
every effort that bus been made since then to
cut down the appropriations, the aggregate
now amounts to $422,117,380.81. This sub
tracted from the estimated revenues for the
year, $440,000,000. leaves a surplus of $17,882,-
|>19.19. This includes all of the appropria
tions that have been disposed of, the defi
ciency upon which the conferees have agreed,
and $500,000 miscellaneous for the
suppression of epidemics, for fourth of
July claims, etc., which sum is added to a
compilation made by Mr. Barnes in his speech
of tbo 18th of last month. A tabic in this
statement shows that the agricultural appto
priation bill of this year carried $1,716,010;
army, 824,471,300; diplomatic ami consular,
$1,428,465; District of Columbia, $5,046,410.32;

be able to fix them up by the time the legisla

Representative Gallenger, who declined re
iiciuiuation lor tho house, in order to make
tho race against Chandler for tho senate.
Members from New Hampshire say that Gal
lenger is much tho more popular 'man ot the

much trouble. Tho defeat of Chandler will
undoubtedly be welcome news to Texas,
Louisiana and Mississippi.

THE BTARYEANn SENATOB GOES TO
KJEW YOEK,
Washington, October 11.—[Special.]—Sen
ator Gorman went to New York last night to
attend a meeting of the national campaign
committee. It is not probable that he will
again return to Washington until after the
election. There has been a very strong
pressure from democrats of late to persuade
him to give his undivided attention to the can
vass from now until it shall close, and
he will probably consent. _ Senator
Gorman is undoubtedly the shrewdest political
manager in the pajty, and democrats feel con
fident that he will repeat his successful work
of 1884. He will not succeed Mr. Brico as
Chairman of tho campaign committee, as the
republican papers are claiming, but will
only lend his efforts and advice to
the committee, which, however, will
be similar to his being at the helm.
Tbo option on the Post, which was recently
purchased by Mr. W. 11. Smith, of the Asso
ciated Press, and others, has been withdrawn,
and tho paper goes back into the hands of Mr.
Stilson Hutchens. It will probably continue
as an independent paper, and will lean to
democracy * rather than republicanism as of
late.
Major and Mrs. Barnes and Miss Addie left
for Augusta tonight. Miss Ella is with friends

THE QUESTION OF ADJOURNMENT.
There were only twenty-seven senators in
the city today. Two of them loft tonight and
by Monday there will be only about twenty
left. Despite tho pending tariff bill there is
an air of Hstlossness about the senate pro
ceedings. Tho sessions seems to drag, the
galleries are almost deserted a great portion of
the time. Now and then a group, usually
strangers in tho city, drop in, but few of them
remain long. The question asked by every
one is: “When will congress adjourn?” Tho
belief that adjournment will bo reached soon
is general.
The house was not in session today. Both
Mr. Kilgore and Mr. Taylor still declare that
no more business shall be transacted this ses
sion, and the house will do nothing more than
to enact the daily farce of meeting and adjourn
ing. Today General Clark, clerk of the house
of representatives, has been conferring, on be
half of the majority in the house, with Senator
Allison and other republicans of the senate
about adjournment. General Clark said tho
house would take the responsibility of origi
nating the resolutions, and members
of tho houso were in favor of
fixing the time for adjournment for
Saturday of next week or Monday of tho
week alter. Ho asked the senators which
they would prefer. Tho sentiment in the sen
ate was favorable to an adjonrnmont one week
from next Saturday. General Clark says tho
houso will probably pass the resolution to ad
journ Wednesday or Thursday, and that the
senate will concur. Tho only difficulty now in
the way is the possibility of some member of
the houso calling “no quorum” on the resolu
tion. Mr. Oates, of Alabama, says lie will de
mand a democratic cattcus on it, and It is feared
there will be a wrangle and failure to agree
on that.

Terrible Beenes in Santiago do Cuba During
a Visit of the Plague.
From tho New York Telegram.
“I had tho yellow fever in Santiago de Cuba
about a dozen years ago," says Fred Wesson, of
Lewiston, in the Journal, of that place. “I took It
on shipboard and was taken ashore into a cell-like
place where there were four stone walls, an iron
grated door, two cot beds and on one of which lay a
man dead from the fever. I had a black doctor who
cupped me on the back of the neck. See there?
That's the scar. In half an hour a bunch as big as
two fists gathered on my arm at the under side.
This was lanced and was full of ebony black pus. 1
lived, of course, but I don't know but It would have
been cheaper to die. I had a colored nurse who led
me fish and light food with nowand then a banana.
“I didn't have any medicine, and I was so weak
that II vires me to think of it today. It was a month
before I was strong. While I was in that place a
Cuban revolution was in progress. A man lay sick
near mo in the big hall where I was moved after
convalescence. I saw him murdered. It was the
most awful murder I ever saw. A man sprang from
his bed, ran over and buried his knife in this man’s
heart. Then he went back to his bed. It was awful.
I never will forget the scene in the low room with
tho whitewashed walls. The death gurgle sounded
in my ears for months. I believe they executed the
man aftevvard, but what of it! Polities was said to
be at the bottom of it. A woman carrying her child
in her arms, and In her frenzy at late political out
rages against onp of her family, crying out agains
tho revolutionists, was shot dead iu the streets with
her child before her."

Bound to Be a General*
From the Philadelphia Times.
General Custer always said, even while ho
was a lieutenant, that he would become a general
I efbre his death. His messmatas guyed him mercl
lesx'.y for his “conceit,” but he stuck toil neverthe
less. Qnj evening, eleven days after the battle of
Aldie, in which Custer had greatly distinguished
himself, ho returned to headquarters after a long
ride, and upon entering the large tent in which the
staff officers woto wont to gctli.r, ho was greeted
with “Hello, general," “How are you, general. "
“Gentlemen, General Custer,” etc., etc. Custer s
face grew scarlet, but he conquered his temper and
made his usual reply. This was not enough, how
ever. It seemed as if his tormentors were deter
mined to irritate him into ra explosion, and they
nearly succeeded, tor his eyes began to Hash and he
looked round as if seeking some one ou whom to
fix a quarrel. His old friend Yates came to his
relief.
“Look on the table, old fellow. They’re not
chaffing."
He pointed to the table as he spoke, and there lay
a large official envelope, on which was written:
Briuadieh-genkiial George a. Custer,
U. 8. Vols.
The reaction was Instantaneous, and the young
fellow was completely overcome. A moment later
and all his old comrades were gathered round him
in real earnest, congratulating and shaking hands
while Custer, too much overpowered to speak, could
only smile faintly, turn very pale cud then wink
furiously to keep back the gathering tears.
