America. They w?re possessed of
considerable money and their leader
was a man of ninety-five, who had
recently been married to a girl of
sixteen.
Mrs. Mackay, it is said, gives away
$50,000 in charity every year. Her
benevolence recently led to a pathet

daughier was about to be married,
for any "old diamonds or rubies”
she could spare.

be a bread riot unless tne bakers re
duce the price of their loaves. Bread
is as high now as when wheat was
$l5O pur bushel. The bakers de
ciare that they are not getting rich;
that flour is almost as high as at any
time.
Dakota expects her wheat crop will
amount to at least 20.0C1.000 bushels
this year, and Colorado shows an in
crease of 5 per cent over any previous
year, making a yield of 2,100,000
bushels. Os this 600,000 will be ex

I ARRESTING A GOVERNOR.
&IAUBHAL tracey’s call upon the gov •
ERKOB OY TEXAS.
I Galveston August 27. -The News’
Austin special says, United States
Marshall Tracy arrived there on
Tuesday, entered the Governor’s of
fice in the afternoon, bent on arrest
lug Governor Ireland under the war
rant issued lu the Francois miscege
nation case. Tracy introduced the
subject by saying:
“Governor, I auppose you know
what I am here for.”
The Governor made a suitable re
ply. Tracy said he regretted the ne
cessity that he should have to per
form such an official duty as to ar
rest the Governor of Texas, and pre
sented his warrant. Governor Ire
land, at this juncture, relieved Col
onel Tracy by saying he would al
ways cheerfully submit to a process
legal on its face, aud would answer
at the court as required, but he
considered that the marshal of the
eastern district ol Texas had no au
thority to serve the process here out
side his district; that the proceed
ings at Galveston were without a
shadow of fact upon which to base a
case. This being so, while he made
no resistance to the writ, and would
answer as any citizen should, he
would hold Tracy and others who
bad interested themselves in the
matter responsible for their conduct.
Traoev referred the governor to the
United States statutes on thesubjset,
which the governor declared he had
already examined, and he so explain
ed their tenor that Tracey, without
miking the arrest, left the executive
office to consult United States District
Attorney Evans, taking the warrant
with him,
la a coupie of hours Tracey return
ed and informed the governor that he
would not execute the writ, stating
that he. had consulted with Judge
Evans, who verbally condemned the
proceedings in strong language. In
answer to a written question bearing
on the case submitted to Evans by
Tracey, the former furnished Tracey
a written opinion de olaring that Tra
cey, as Unit’d Sta’es marshal of the
eastern district of Texas, had no au
thori’y to arrest a citizen resident
and found in the western district,
under a writ issued by the United
States commissioner for the eastern
district.except in special cases. Judge
Evans declares that ihe charge of
viola ion of section 5510 revised stat
utes of the United States is not a
special case. Tracey informed the
governor that he would return to
Galveston. Meanwhile the governor
awaits the next move in this celebrat
ed case. It is understood that Judge
Evans advises that proceedings by
Francois be dismissed.

HE BELIEVES HIM TO BE AN ANGEL OF
LIGHT WHEN COMPARED TO ELAINE.
New York, August 27.—General
Horatio O. King, who went to Buffa
lo to investigate tne Maria Halpin
scandal, called at the national demo
cratic headquarters with an addition
al statement yesterday. The gener
al had bad another interview with
Mr. Beecher, who he represented as
saying:
“I have waited for the confirmation
of the stories about Governor Cleve
land, detailing what be did when he
was a good deal younger than be is
to-day, and all the gross exaggera
tions that have been made by his
enemies since, and the statement of
gentlemen with whom I am acquain
ted, and whose character a well
know, satisfies my mind that the
governor has been subjected to gross
and outrageous misrepresentation.
While I forebore and waited until I
had adequate light. I am satisfied
now that Cleveland is the proner
man for president. In view of Mr.
Blaine’s public and political conduct,
Cleveland is an angel of light. How
any man can vote for Blaine because
of a conscientious scruple that pre
vents him from voting for Cleveland
ou the ground of morality passes my
conception. I regard Blaine as one
of the most corrupt men in pecuni
ary affairs we have ever had in our
government. What part I shall take
in the advocacy of Mr. Cleveland I
can tell better after my return to the
citv.”
Further, General King says that
Mr. Beecher hopes to see Cleveland
elected by so big a majority as “to
terrorize any man like B aine from
being so tooihardv as to run for
president for the next fifty years.”

Blaine’s Man Beaten.
Leading friends of Mr. Blaine ap
peared in the Connecticut republican
convention and urged the nomina
tion of ex-Oongressman Lounsberry.
a millionaire, for governor, on the
ground that he would be a "liberal
contributor” to the state and nation
al campaign fund in event ot his
nomination. But he was defeated
for the nomination by Hon. Henry
B. Harrison, whose friends claimed
that with his name at the head of the
ticket there “would be no use of pin
ning a pocket-book to it.” The
friends of the pocket-book aspirant
are very sore over his defeat, and
propnesy that the successful aspirant
will fail to enthuse the party.

A BOLTING CONVENTION.
THE ANCIENT ORDER OE HIBERNIANS DE
NOUNCE THE NEW YORK CLIQUE.
New York, August 27.—The follow
ing is giv -n out bv the officials of the
Ancient Order of Hibernians as a cor
rect statement of the dispute among
the members ot that order:
The statement recently published
about the great benevolent organiza
tion, having branches in every por
tion of the country, and known as
the Ancient Order of Hibernians, was,
it now apoears, founded on misrep
resentation. The opposition to the
national organization, effected at the
regular biennial convention at Cleve
land, proves to be so insignifioant as
to be of no account, and is confined
almost exclusively to some branches
in thisjeity. They eay it has been
claimed bv these New Yorkers for
many years that the national officers
should he residents of this city, with
their offices of administration here,
but the membership of New York
state, and of the entire country, has
not acknowledged this claim, and
the convenience of the entire ‘organi
zation has been promoted by locating
the offices and electing national offi
cers according to the will of the ma
jority, without the narrow limitations
of localities. The New York city
men, in order to enforce their preten
sions, held what they described as a
national convention for the purpose
of disciplining the entire membership
of which they constituteaTooly street
proportion. A private national con
vention, it transpires was held in a
dingy little room connected with a
saloon. In all solemnity the con
vention expelled the officers after the
national convention in Cleveland, in
cluding the national delegate, Hon.
Henry F. Sherman, of Chicago, with
the national secretary and the
treasurer. The Brooklyn county
board of the order fhas held the
largest meeting since its organiza
tion, thirty-nine divisions being
represented, and repudiates the ac
tion of the New York clique, indors
ing Sherman and his brother officials.
Eighteen divisions of the New York
county nave also had a meeting, and
adopted similar resolutions. The
State officers of New York, Massa
chusetts, Georgia, Missouri.Oonnecti
cut, Michigan. Illinois, Wisconsin
find other states, repudiate the New
York clique,and standby the regular
action of the order. The pretending
delegate from Illinois at the clique
convention was James E. Dunn, who
it is of record in the Chicago division,
was expelled from the order before
the clique follv was undertaken. All
the national officers, all the national
directory, and the predecessor of
Sherman at the head ot the order,
support him, and the regular official
staff elected at Cleveland.
ST. JOHN GAINS STRENGTH.
THE AMEBICAK PARTY WITHDRAWS IM
HIS FAVOR.
Washington, August 27,—-Edwin D.
Bailey, secretary of the national com
mittee of the American party. (anti
secret), says to-night that ex-Senator
8. 0. Pomeroy, who was nominated
for president at the convention held
in Chicago June 20th and 21st, will
withdraw in favor of St. John. When
the convention was in session St.
John’s name was prominently men
tioned by the leaders of the party in
connection with the presidency. It
was thought, however, that his nom
ination at that time would prevent
his securing the nomination of the
prohibition party at Pittsburg, and
without that nomination the Ameri
can party did not desire his name at
the head of the ticket. A resolution
was passed by the convention giving
the national committee authority to
supply any vacancy that might
occur. Next to St. John, Sena
tor Pomeroy was said to be the
choice of the convention. A confer
ence was held with the latter, and at
his own suggestion, Mr. Bailey says,
it was agreed he should be nominat
ed with the understanding that if St.
John was nominated at Pittsburg he
would withdraw in his favor. Pome
roy was present at the prohibition
convention, and to a number of prom
inent persons, after the nomination
of St. John, signified his intention of
withdrawing in pursuance with bis
agreement at Chicago. The national
committee of the American party
will meet either in Chicago or in this
city early in September, when their
presidential candidate will recom
mend that the vote of the party be
given to St. John. Bailey says there
is no doubt that the action of Pome
roy will be acquiesced iu by the with
drawal in favor of St. John. It is es
timated this will give him 40,000 votes
through the influence of the Ameri
can party.
The Illinois Fusion.
Bloomington, 111., August 27.—At
10 o’clock this morning the anti-mo
nopoly state convention met, and at
once adjourned to meet at noon with
the greenback convention convened
under the McGeighan call. The
bodies will unite and the leaders pro
pose to adopt the name of the peo
ple’s party. The policy outlined is
to nominate a full state ticket ana re
fer the question cf fusion on an elec
toral vote to the state central com
mittee with instructions to make the
best bargain possible for the electoral
votes for Butler with either of the old
parties. John O. Oberly, chairman
of the state democratic central com
mittee, is here, laboring for the fus
ion on the basis of dividing the elec
toral vote between Cleveland and
Butler, the greenbackers to support
the democratic state ticket. A dem
ocratic and greenback electoral fus
ion in some shape will be the prob
able outcome of to-day’s proceedings,
with a separate greenback state ticket
in the field.
