tween J. H. McLaughlin, of Detroit, and H. M.
Dnfnr, of Massachusetts, for §500 a side and the
championship of the world, was won to-niclit by
Bufur, who gained two successive falls. The

the auspices of the Union Athletic association,
and was a novel feature. The contest took
place in the open air on the Union, base ball
grounds, which were lighted with electricity.
About 1,500 persons were present. The result
wa* not satisfactory to ttu- spectators, and the
justice of the referee's decision in giving the
second bout to Dufur on his claim that McLangh
lin had broke his hold was questioned by many.
McLaughlin protected he had- not broken his
bold in the fall, but thu decision of the referee
was maintained. McLanghlln left the ting iv

Dufur or any other niiin, now, to-morrow or any

THE COLORADO RAILWAYS.
The New Rate 3to Go Into Effect
AujfUdt 1, and All Roads to
Co-operate.
[■Special Telegram to the Globe.]
July 30. — It was announced
yesterday upon reliable authority that all the
roads between Chicago and St. Louis and the
Missouri river, had agreed to co-operate with
the Colorado lines in the uew compact, and
that rates wou'.d be advanced Aug. 1. A
morning paper insisted both Tuesday and
yesterday mornings that the Chicago and St.
Louis lines were firmly -arrayed against the
advance, and that the new rates could not
be put in effect at the time specified. To
6tttle the matter once and far all the Globe
correspondent called yesterday upon General
Manager Chappell, of the Chicago & Alton.
'"About the time of the Denver meeting,"
said he, "I received a telegram from a gen
eral manager of a Chicago and Missouri river
line, stating that all competing lines had
given him assurances that they would agree
to an advance in Colorado rates Aug. 1 and
asked me what th* Alton would to. I re
plied that the Alton would consent to an ad
vance upon the assurance of co-operation on
the part of all other lines interested. The
Colorado lines then subscribed to the agree
ment. That is the situation as I under-
Btiiud it. The new rates will undoubt
edly lie. put into, effect Aug. 1 and
August 5 a general meeting of all lines will
be held for the purpose of taking action for
the permanent maintenance of the Colorado
rates."
♦'Does this include the tripartite lines?"
"I so understand it. I have been assured
that all lines have agreed to the advance Aug.
1."
"On both east and west bound business?"
"I; will Include traffic both ways between
Chicago and St. Louis and Colorado points."
This unequivocal statement ought to settle
any doubt as to the present attitude of the
lines east of the Missouri river.
ENTHUSIASTIC DEMOCRATS.
Chickering Hall Filled to the Doors by
the County Democracy.
New York, July 30.— Chickering hall was
filled to the doors to-night at a ratification
meeting held by the county Democracy.
The audience' was a representative one.
Frederick B. Courdert, chairman of the
meeting, in the opening speech, said:
I believe in speaking the truth even in a
political ''campaign. I had hoped to say,
that we, of the county Democracy, and our
friends would to-night have the privilege of
Bring the first gun in the campaign, but I
cannot say that now, for the first gun was
Bred at Albany yesterday. [Applause].
What claim has tin- Republican party to re
main longer in power? Is it as a reward for
past services ! ask you in all eerious
ness if you don't think it
has been rewarded enough already. The Re
publicans claim the honor of accomplishing
everything that has been accomplished In
this country for twenty-five years. The peo
ple should not be deceived by such talk.
Got. Tbos. M. Waller, of Connecticut,
was the next speaker. Among other things
he said the way people talk about your irov
ernor where he is known falsifies that ancient
saying, "a man is not without honor save in
his own country." He is a man who can
not be cajoled, brow beaten or blackmailed.
[Applause.] The platform adopted by the
convention at Chicago is consistent with the
record of our party in the past. It stands
abreast of the time in all that concerns the
dignity of the nation. It declares that It is
the true policy of the government is not to
taken (rom the pockets of the people by the
taxation of one solitary dollar more than is
necessarj to pay its expenses. The Republican
part] has no hopes of winning this contest
with their own votes. They expect to get
some of our votes; perhaps they will. If you
fall In New York what will be the result? Cor
ruption will thrive four years longer. But if
you win, what win be the result? Star
routers, naval contractors and the Mulligan
guards will not be the plumed knights qf
four years hence. [Applause.]
(Jen. Charles E. Howard, of Mississippi,
was the next speaker. ■ He said the people of
the south were loyal to the country. They
were still poor, but they would still bear their
burdens of the government cheerfully. He
also spoke of the necessity of reducing the. j
tariff.
Col, John It. Fellows was the last speaker.
Resolutions endorsing the platform of the
Chicago contention and credentials were
enthusiastically adopted.
NAYOR LOW'S POSITION.
The .Means Employed by the Republi
cans to Whip Him in for Blaise.
New York, July 30. — bolters against
Blaino In the Young Republican club have
been served with a notice from lending Re
publican* in Brooklyn that if the force and
influence of that body is carried for Cleve
land the carefully nnrsed programme to put
Mayor Low forward as the Republican guber
natorial candidate next fall may as well be
abandoned. The negative policy of the
mayor in rapid to national politics Is the
(MM of much dissatisfaction. Last fall,
when be appeared before the Republican
convention to accept the nomination, he
•aid with much emphasis that in national
affairs he was a Republican. The loaders
who say that this was the main prompting
of their endorsement of his candidacy, in
*i»t that he is bound in honor to vindicate
the position he then took. As it is. they
»ver he retirvs behind his non-par
tisan policy and decline? to re
real his own preferences although his
relatives and his Immediate circle of friends
are vociferous in benalf of Cleveland. The
mayor might, it is asserted, if he were loyal
to Blame. swing the youn? Republicans into
line: but instead Of holding his friends firm
he is letting: the prestige go to the Democrat
ic candidate in the spot of all others in New
York state where the undivided Republican
•strength M needed. The Democrat* are
much interested in the attempt of the Re
publican leaders to whip the mayor into line.

WESTERN RAILWAYS.
Sonic of the Vital Questions to Come
Before the Meeting of
Aiifiriist 5.
Cuicaoo, July 30. — The meeting of wopteru
! lines, called for August 5, promises to be of
1 vital importance to the western railroad
] world. There will b_> represented the Bur
j lington, Rock Islam!, St. Paul, Alton, Wab
ash, Northwestern, Santa Fo, Uniou Pacific,
Si. Louis, San Francisco uud Missouri Pa
cific. Before the conference must come all
of the important problems which
have to be settled before permanent
peace will have been secured, and some
radical changes Iv the present western rail
way economy are confidently exnected. One
of the most important will be an organiza
tion to take tho place of the late Colorado
Traffic association. It is generally conceded
i that the tripartite lines were guilty of almost
I a fatal blonder when they dissolved that as
j sociation. Thp attempt of the Western Trunk
Line association to control Colorado
bnsincs without the co-operation of the
I other linos wns predestined to failure*
and very disastrous failure has been the re
sult. All are auxious now to return to first
principles as far as this traffic is concerned,
aud there is little doubt that the Colorado
Traffic Association will be revived
Another matter which will come before the
meeting is the discussion of the western and
northwestern cattle business, and this prom
ises to be a knotty problem to solve.
Demoralization iv cattle rates
has already began, and the
situation has become so complex that very
skillful engineering will be necessary to
avoid disastrious breakers. It is not impos
sible that tbe dissolution of the West.m
Trunk Line association and the reestablisli
meut of the lowa pool may be the only way
out of the difficulty. The former 13 any
thing but a happy family, and threats occur
ing almost daily which add to the strained
relations existing between the telegraph
lines. .Jiit-re are very strong indications
that the Uuion Pacific is gradually tending
toward a. withdrawal from the association,
and the other members, almost without ex
ception, would apparently be only too happy
to free themselves from an organization
which is universally conceded to have been
practically a failure.
Two circumstances which transpired yes
terday indicated pretty clearly that the best
of feeling does not prevail within
the sacred precincts of the tripar
tite fold. The managers of one
of the Union Pacific's eastern allies received
a dispatch yesterday from the manager of
the Northern Pacific asking if a cut rate in
cattle is quoted by General Freight Agent
Shelby, of the Union Pacific. This was au
thorized and done with tlie knowledge of the
Western Trunk Line association. This was
the first intimation that the Union Pacific
had made a cut iv cattle rates, and Mr.
Shelby was promptly favored by telegraph
with a somewhat spirited com
munication. The manager of tbe
CJnion Pacific tripartite ally asked
Mr. Shelby what be meant by announcing a
cut rate to his competition (the Northern
Pacific; before bis tripartite connections
were apprized of tbe fact. At the latest ad
rtces Mr. Shelby had seen fit to ignore the
telegraphic inquiry. Another little circum
stance, which carries with it a good deal of
significance, is the discovery yesterday that
the Union Pacific has been turning over
to tbe Burlington consignments of
cattle, which the tripartite agreement says
should be given to the members of the asso
ciation. Ah the question whether the Bur
lington should nveive a share of the Northern
Pacific business at Omaha is the point upon
which the Burlington tripartite controversy
chiefly hinges, this action of the Northern
Pacific becomes of crave importance. A
highly interesting confab over this matter is
therefore pr. mi is.-d. Other interesting
topics will come before the meeting, and the
result is awaited with much interest.
A COWARDLY ASSAULT.

I Special Telegram to tho Globe.]
La Cbosm, July — An attempt was made to

Pa hue nan cue, W. Va., July — The Kepub
lican convention here to-day was the largest and
most enthusiastic ever assembled in the Hate.
George K. Evans, of Martinsbnrg, was perma
nent chairman. The platform ;■ arraigns '■ the
Democratic party for having, unfilled all its
pledges of economy and reform, for having
squandered the people's money in extravagant
and unnecessary legislation, for having Imposed
unjiiHt and erroneous taxes upon the people, and
referring to their collection by gross perversion
of the sUte constitution, for having through its
executive denied and abrogated the state statutes,
for having through its judiciary
revived the tyranny of medival
history, . for having subjected to
doable taxation of the property of a large major
ity of the people of the state, for having imposed
heavy burdens upon the people through frequent
and excessive reassessments of the realty of the
state. The platform favors the passage by the
legislature of laws inviting capital... to come in

state, also condc.mns the supreme court of ap

Toledo, 0., July 30. — The county Democratic
central committee me t here this afternoon to
iii;ree on a call for the selection of delegates to
the congressional convention. Mr. Ilurd's
friends insisted on a county convention composed
of delegates chosen under the Baker election
law, snid convention to select delegates to thu
congressional convention expecting to control
the- said convention and obtain a solid Hurd del
egatlon. Five of the fourteen members wanted
delegates to the congressional convention appor
tioned to wards and townships, they
to select delegates to the congressional
| convention direct, without the intervention
of a county convention. The five nnti-Hurd
members of the committee wer,c voted down,
whereupon they withdrew, and each faction has
issued a call — the nine committee calling a con
vention under the Baker lnw to select a seventh
delegate, and the five members issuing another
call apportioning the seventh delegate among tho
wards and townships, to be by them chosen to
the congressional convention in the uauul way.
This insures two nets of delegates from this
County, and will, it is claimed, defeat Mr. Hurd.

Tlif Urettt Tn<Hrtmi-nt of lit „ inc.
| From Jobs Swintou's Paper. J
There is not a single act in Blaise's poli
tical record, nor a solitary word in his thirty
years of speechifying, that can be quoted as
a reason why the workingmen of tbis coun
try should put in his hands the tremendous
power of the office of President.
For a lifetime his name has been on the
public pay-rolls; he has been powerful with
his party, a dictator of its policy, and a
leader in Congress. Within that time he
has seen the erowth of monoply and capital
ism to continental proportions; he has seen
these stalwart giants seizing the country's
resources, the elements of wealth and wel
fare, the land, capital and labor, gaining
control of all tbe agencies and forces of so
ciety and Government, and using for
for tbeir own ends the machinery of parties,
politics, legislation and law. He bag seen
the despoilcrs of our country towering till
they overshadow the land, co that all men
feel their blight. He has been familiar with
their operations in Congress, and he his
known their workings from the inside. Ik
has seen the rise of a repulsive magg of mil
lionairism, and alongside of it a repulsive
mass of serfium ; he has seen wage-competi
tion drawing Hi rivets closer, fastening them
around hundreds of thousands of women and
children, and bringing the industrial system
under a strife more degrading than chronic
war.
Instead of looking into these world-shak
ing questions, and trying to meet them—ln
stead of using his *. influence ,' as a politician
and party leader in invoking the powers that
Congress possesses under ; the ] Constitution I
to take means of averting the dangers that
have grown up through I ignoring »' them—he
has but profited by the ravages of the plagues
he has helped to propagate. .*:"
Statesmanship: Is this what you call
state-tmanfthip? Why, man, it is a thousand
miles below; that demagoguery which has
been one ef the great forces in the world's
progress. • . ;
vi He has had great opportunities of thus
serving and saving the country amid the i
perils that have overtaken it during bis long ■
political career. He has • had the .; power, j
again and again, of thwarting tbe schemes
of the people's enemies while they were rais- :
ing the buttresses that now 5 protect ' them.
But he has never lifted* hand on that side,
and never uttered a word of '* warning to the
country. He has from f first; to last stood as
the shifty upholder of * the money-power, the
bank sharks," the land-grabbers, the railroad
wreckers, and all the bandits of monopoly. ;
This is the great indictment of Jim Blame:
: l -} Far worse tfcan t all y his r other;- tattooing Is
this; worse than his wail street gambling;
. worse than his Mulligan letters ; worse than
his - land j and stock f bribery i. by 5 railroads;
worse than his underhanded operations as a.
oal of Jay, Gould; t worse than i defense r of
the Tribune rat-system ; worse than all the
paltry scheming "for sellish aggrandizemeut
of Jobber Blame
He has been false to his opportunities,
false to the great principles of American life,
false to the people on wbose pay-roll hia
name has so long stood.
No workingman, no farmer, no honest eit
izeu desiring the welfare of his country,
should vote for a politician who, when the
greatest questions were at issue, performed
the part of a mercenary in the enemy's
rauks.
Butter that such men should throw their
vote to the dogs than that they should use it
to put in hig hands thft tremendous power
of the ofllce of President.

The Now York Star having tola of a loco
motive engineer's falling asleep anrt having
a long dream while going twenty-live rods in
four seconds, another writer says that while
the name of Gortschakofli, tbe Russian Min
ister, was being telegraphed he fell asleep be
tween the first and last syllable, and dreamed
that he went to his mother's home in the In
dian Territory; went hunting with some In
dian friemls; had a great deal of sport, and
went through an experience it would take
days to perform, and finally, after returning
from the. hunt, during the division of their
game, he woke up in time to hear the linal
syllable of Gortschakoff's name, and succeed
ed iv making a complete "copy" of the mes
sage. The hut man always has the best
chance, and he declared that he fell asleep
during a flash of lightning and dreamed that
ho went to Europe for a year, traveled all over
England and the continent, visiting Norway
In the summer, Egypt in the winter, saw the
carnival at Rome, climbed Mont Blanc, spent
three months in Paris, gome out regularly
every day, courted and married a young
woman, whose father met them at the wharf
and hit his son-in-law betweeu the eyes, which
made him see a bright light that proved to be
the last end of the lightning stroke whose be
ginning he saw when he dropped to sleep.
These fellows can, he would say, dream faster
than a horse can trot.

lie had the unmistakeable air of a busi

press office, and edged his way through the
crowd, to the receiving clerk.
"Well, what do you want?" dem anded the
deck, hurriedly.
"I — I," gasped the new comer, "I want to
express something, and would like for you
to suggest some way to fix it up."
"What is it?"
"I want to express an Idea," smiled the
witty fellow, "and would take It as a favor
if you'd suggest some style of a package to
put it in."
"Go out into the street," seriously spoke
the clerk, "and the first man you meet put
that idea into his head. Do it quick, too, for
it will die of loneliness in that empty skull
of yours."

No, sir; I have but two brothers, and their
