Bill Wasliburn poes Not Show Himself Although Advertised as a Drawing Card. But Gil's Man Friday, Eustis, Was j There in All His Forensic Glory, ami Elucidated. . : •; v ~ ■" ' The Thundering of Lord Gordon Awoke tho Night Airs and Made Timid Ladies Tremble. The Young 3lan from Chicago— Frankie Davis — Ilia Supplications. Fora long time it has been announced and heralded that the Republicans of sunny south side were to have a grand rally in Shaf fcr' hall last night. The thing occurred, proverbially buncomb speeches,' brass bands and all. But the great Bill Wash burn failed to show his colors although he was down on the menu. Bill is no respector of persons nor things now that he is, like Dr. Aincs,out of politics, and he can snap his finger ar the j Republican elements and laugh the cnuty ' office seekers to scorn. His nest is feathered and what docs he care for his disciples. W. Eustis was the first speaker. His cu phoaious voice, as a matter of course stirred some of the patriotic souls of his auditors until their effewescence could scarcely con tain themselves, while others thought it was a regular oldfashioned camp meeting and could scarcely refrain from crying out at the most patriotic points, "Amcr.." At this exciting junction Dr. Drew felt constrained to announce that the precincts of the bloody Sixth ward had been changed and that everybody should see that he was en rolled .at the proper place. Thundering Cordon was then introduced by this same Dr. Drew, he who owes great party fealty, as it were, and who evidently wauls to pay the debt. The entire Sixth ward began to tremble. Even the harvester works, that great Republican institution \ which compels each and every workingman | employed therein to go to the polls -and vote the straight Republican ticket, with the peril of a peremptory dismissal, if the mandate was not most stiictly followed j in the nomination, trembled until it was j feared it would be razed to the ground and, figuratively speaking, not one brick would be left standing upon another. It was that voice, those thundering toue3 which occa sioned it. The denizens of this mundane sphere within "miles and mites around" rushed to the streets with the supposition that another earthquake had stirred the Democrats and threatened to open a deep cavern and engulf them in the very bowels i of the earth. Gordon thundered in the in terests of, and advocated the infamous high tariff outrage. He had not advanced far in his argument (that is what he called it), ' when he grasped his throat as does McCul- ! lough, when he delights his au dience with his powerful ren dition of the tragic role of Virginias and he cried out in a voice that rang in the ears of the great . unwashed, for minutes, perhaps more, "confound that frog." It j must have been a joke, At last the people gathered by the noise aud bustle thought so for they laughed, and thundering Gordon took a drink. The Globe asked of an ac commodating gentleman what the liquid was. (that is, what was its character its na ture), which the gentleman lifted to his clean cut and classical lips and gulped down with a relish. The gentleman said: "That is not pale sherry; it is nothing but water which has been pumped through the pipes from that crib in the river, that crib which the ! Journal says is perfectly horrible: absolutely tilled with filth and excrescence." Oh! how | Gordon shouted about the system of land grants to railways. His sophistry had little . effect happily. He said the land grant system was the child of the Democracy. Now, the declaration elicited DO enthusiasm whatever. His auditors must have known better. They failed to applaud, at all events. They were as dumb as an oyster. Thundering Gordon then branched out upon the railway bond robbery of Minnesota, and had the supreme cheek to lay the inauguration of that at the door of the Democracy. In fact, as he pro ceeded in his harangue it would seem that not a single enactment which now stands upon the statutes had ever been conceived or advocated by the Republicans. Yet he said he would undertake to say the Republi can party had kept its every pledge, even its pledges, it is presumed, to the monopolies and corporations which have sapped the fundamental principles of this government, I He yelled "The Republican party nave turned the rascals out," but why the rascal Jingo Jim is still the standard bearer tie did not try to explain. Gordon's tongue is very like that of the proverbial old woman, of Whom it has been said "it hangs in the middle and wags at both ends,' 1 and his effusion was an avalanch of words. He paid ' homage in course of his speech to the won- | derfnl administration of Arthur, and alleged in words emphatic that tthere never was before such an immaculate administration. It was ab solute perfection. Then he spoke of Cleve land and — oh! what a chestnut — that Cleve land had been Halpin to increase the popu lation, that he had obeyed the scriptural injunction, "increase and multiply," and the great unwashed shouted and snickered as though the joke was new. EL A. Davis, Chicago, followed in a si^read eagle effort. His cry was, this great Ameri can country, etc. His finger be shook very like Jack Bunsby in his thrilling narratives. He compared, yes be is quite a philosopher and speaks metaphorically, he compared this great American government to a cow, and j said Great Britain was milking our govern ' ment, Johnny Bull might have had much to do with the cow. but tie is a bad milker and every time he has pressed his fingers to the teats the cow has kicked the pail over and blinded Johny Bull's eyes. Davis' eloquence was to warm and waxing j that he got into deep waters. Then how he displayed his amphibious abilities. ll*- can not be" drowned. There is an old saying that a man born be to hung cannot >c drowned, Davis yelled with sonorous ton (he is not consumptive) some thing about its being impossible to choke a flea with a brick bat, whatever that meant. He had never known or seen the \ Democratic party, yet in the next breath be set himself up as an — Jones, per haps Grays — and said he knew all about the Democracy, "They are trying to ride two horses," he 6ald, "and by and by they will find they have no place to sit down." This exclama ! tion must have been excruciatingly funny ! for these young Republicans set up a spas ; modic laugh, not "larf," but a genuine old 1 fashioned laugh. A few hearers began to ; fee! tired and vamoosed the ranch. The speaker was not at all disconcerted and branched off upon the free trade affair, and Giltiilan looked as cold as ever, no matter I how Sly you keep it, that statesman, like ml derman from the Fourth - ward, pulled •up bis gnat coat about Us ! generous ears, and his handsome face looked pinched and cold Frank Davis, the can i didate for county attorney. is a hot blooded ! young American, but despite his manly efforts to overcome the frigid agency, he j shivered and shook, and right here this I orator from Chicago, with eye glasses and liich collar, began to talk about freezing. : Who was freezing! Manifestly every ! soul on that little stage. built not by Jack, but by that enterprising Ger . man, Al. c-chatler. Eustis backed up to the i left extreme of the stage. He is extremely ' careful of his physical comfort, and he cot as ' far as possib[e from Gil, and, as there were ! no wings on the little stage, be backed up plump against the stage door and backed to : and fro in his frantic endeavor to keep off the chills.

CAPS, SIEKRI3IA.VS RECORD. * II Opposed the Ilfdnrtion of the Laboring Hen Kmployrd in the Lumbering Busi ness—A Communication from One of the Laborers. The following truthful communication ap peared in last night's Journal, and should be reaa by every laboring man in the district: A good many working men of this city will remember with gratitude a good turn that Capt. Merriman did them last spring. I think it was in April or May, before the captain had any idea of running for con gress, that a meeting of lumbermen was called to consider the low price of lumber, depression of the lumber trade, etc. At this meeting it was proposed to reduce the wages of all men employed in the mills, yards, on the drives, etc., twenty-five cents a day. It j was argued that such reduction was neces sary in order to leave any margin of profit in the business. Capt. Merriman, who was present, vigorously OPPOSED THE PROPOSITION. lie said the wages which the ; workmen were receiving was as little as they could live on, and that for his part he would rather run his business at a loss than to make a profit at the cost and comfort of the families of the workingmen. Cant. Mcrriman's opposition defeated the proposition, and it was lost. The reduction proposed would have re sulted in a net saving of $37.50 per day to Merriman, Barrows ft Co., but Capt. Merri man would not consent, even for his own profit, to cut dowii the wages of the honest, hard working laborer. The workingmen will remember this act of Capt. Mcrnman with gratitude, and it will tell in his favor at the polls. fp , One op Them. ASPHYXIATED BY SHORTS. Buried in a Bin of Short* in the Palisade flouring Mill* Yesterday. ■ Yesterday John Johnson, a young man who lived with his parents at the corner of Washington and Twentieth avenue south, was smothered in a bin of shorts at the Pal isade flouring mill at the falls. Johnson was employed in a hopper, a hazardous occupa tion, when he was carried down into the bin. His cries for help were heard by his com rades, who made immediate attempts to rescue him. The hopper was torn open and ten minutes later the lifeless body of the young man was extricated and taken to Warner & Co. 'a morgue. The foreman of the mill states that Johnson had been fre quently advised of the danger of his position. His comrades speak of the deceased in the highest terms. THK COURTS. District Court. NEW CASKS.

I Special Telegram to the Globe. 1 Cnic.*GO, Oct. 24. — Flat, weary stale and unprotitableis the phrase which best describes the condition of the Chicago markets lately. Day after day the same dull grind goes on — lirst up a. little then down a little, then up and down until outsiders have become so dis : gttsted that they wont operate at all, and even theindu6trious scalping fraternity have hard york to :cake their little profits, on quick tarns. The .worst part of the whole I business is that there is no outlook for any j decisive change In the near future, unless a ; | well backed clique begins to manipulate the j ; market. The commission brokers who make 1 a point of advising their customers sing the i same song they have been singing for weeks I past, aud that song is in a minor key. "It looks as if prices were low enough, j buy on the breaks and sell on the bulges for : a quick turn." "See nothing to warrant a higher range of price 3." •'Can expect no improvement until there | is a better export movement." "Prices will not advance much until there ; is a marked falling off in the receipts." These and a score of similar phrases, are ' daily given out in the way of advice, varied, occasionally, by a reference to manipulation and n warning that in case that a deal is manipulated it is unsafe to be on the wrong side. In a word the market is in a waiting condition, and until some new factor is in troduced there will probably be a continuance of the same limited see-saw, and the same dullness. - The morning session to-day was void of interest, trading was light and prices were lower, with the exception of corn, which was a shade higher. In the af ternoon there was more life, the markets being fairly active and higher, wheat advanc ng %c on reports of increased export de mand in New York, and other articles fol lowing in a greater or less degree. The closing quotations on the afternoon board were, November wheat, '_;c higher than yesterday's close at. 74% c; November corn, l}£c higher at43j£e; May oats, %c higher at 29% c; year pork unchanged at •?11.72K; November lard, 5c higher at $7.02^. The wheat market continues heavy and slow. The opening was dull and the fluc tuations during the morning session were confined to %c. _..- . ■ ' Old Hutch sold, it is. believed, puts last night on net less than 100,000 bushels of wheat. He sold two privileges which alone aggregated 800,000 bushels. It is said that he i* selling them every night on December and when a paying figure is touched takes the grain. This fact helped to sustain the market, as many would feel inclined to buy against their puts if they got a good chance to do so. Aside from this by play, however, the mirket was essentially weak. Liverpool was "dull" and Mark Lane "quiet." Weather in^ England fine and cooler. Our receipts were a little larger in winter and about 100 cars less of spring. At Milwaukee receipts were larger and at Toledo less. New York early was steady on wheat, and St. Louis } 4 c lower. In the afternoon the situation was a little better, word being received from New York that twenty boat loads were taken for export. This stimulated trade and also advanced prices. November opened at 74?.je, was very dull during the moring session at 7-H«t74 a and closed at 74c. In the afternoon it closed at 74 : 4 c. December opened at 76c, about the figure of yesterday's close, sold at 75% c and closed steady at ~~r;{v in the morning, and at 78J in the afternoon January closed at 77 ] " against 76'(c yesterday. No. 2 spring sold at 4 '"?:)'•. c closed at 73#c cash. No. 3 was unchanged and closed at 62@G2J^c, No. 2 red winter was \<a l){ clower and closed at 74j^c and No. 3 closed at Gsc. Corn ruled quite dull at the morning ses- sion, and although the inside prices of yes terday were not reached the feeling was weak and unsettled. This afternoon, how ever, the market was very strong. The clique which controlled the cash corn in store here, made deliveries of about 500,000 bushels to-day. .on October sales. This seemed to relieve the market and dealers who regard current values as safe are more willing to operate, when stock is loose on the market and available for * general- shipment. A good export demand for corn was reported from New York with quite a large lot taken, but ocean freight room was scarce. Liverpool reported the corn market there as depressed | and }, penny lower, which fact does not ex actly tally with brisk. export demand. Still, at present price?, there is said to be a good margin of profit' for shipment of the cash stuff, and undoubtedly shippers arc taking advantage of the existing situation. The dread of what the clique may see fit to do binders active trading to a greater or less de gree. This cool weather is doing wonder 3 for the new crop,- and after the Ist of No vember doubtless the market will come down Of go up to a more settled basis. It was re ported from New York that cash corn to ar- | rive from Chicago was being offered there at | the present price of the November option, i which would indicate that the sellers of the , same thought the market was sure to- go ' lower. Private dispatches received from the com ' producing section of Kansas and Nebraska, j say that there are large quantities of new i corn now ready for shipment. The price J paid i* only 20c and the farmers are disposed to hold their products for better prices. Oc tober, opened at 43c, sold at 42*£ c and closed at the morning session at 42;'-<e, but in the ! afternoon went up to a close of 4.'i>,'c No \ vember opened at 43c.sold at 43} Jc then down to 42c aud closed one o'clock at 4"2;j£c, but j : impmve-1 in the ■ afternoon to 43% c.

The receipts, of cattle show a marked falling off as", compared with" last week, there being only 50 to 55 cars of westerns and no Tcxans among the fresh re ceipts.. . The light receipts had a stimulating effect on the market and the slight decline noted yesterday may be said to have beea checked, yet prices underwent little, or no change oue way or another. Range cattle were in light supply and there is a possible chance that they may sell n shade stronger. Tcxans are scarce and there is also a chance that the turn may be in favor of the sellers. The quality of the Montanas on sale was very good, the best making $4.50@5.50. Several droves of "Wyoming made around about |S@S.IS. The quality of the Texans was rather poor, and in some instances they were quoted easier. The Western Texan s are belling at about ?3.50@4.10 and Texans proper at $3.1 0(e?3.fi0. Some fancy droves would sell for ?3.50@4. With the fresh receipts of hogs, about 3*500, the number left over, there must have been 30,000 to 35,000 on sale, a much greater number than could be disposed of. Hence values were generally reported s@loc lower, with a much better quality. Common to fair packers sold around about |4.75@4.90, and the best packers at $1.95(25.10, with choice heavy at 10@5.20, and fancy as sorted heavy and Philadelphias at $5.25@ 5.35. Light sorts remain dull and neglected. One or two of the leading New York shippers | arc getting their supplies at Buffalo this j week, they claiming they can do better there ) than in Chicago at present. CHICAGO FINANCIAL [Special Teleeram to the Globe. | Chicago, Oct. 24. — The general market is steady and quiet. There is a moderate de mand for G@7 per cent, and 8 per cent, is sometimes obtained.

Wall & Bijjf.low. : NEW YORK. | Special Telegram to the Globe. | New York, Oct. 24. — The trading to-day in the stock market is substantially con firmed to Grangers, the Vauderbilts, West ern Union, and Union Pacific, with a small contingent in Lackawanna. The bears who sold pretty freely on yester day and were somewhat exercised by the rally at the close • appeared as buyers this morning, aud their purchasers carried a sharp advance as soon as business opened. After their wants were supplied prices re ceded, and the market lost all its vim. This was particularly noticeable in the closing hour. Lake Shore distinguished itself early by an advance to above 67. This brought out plenty of stock. The Grangers picked up early, and Northwestern was quite firm throughout' the entire session. Vanderbilt brokers are bullish on Lake Shore and predict a rise of 10 points within next week. They point out the fact that while Lake Shore and New York Central have declined together there is not the same reason for the depreciation of Lake Shore stock as that of New York Cen tral, inasmuch as the West Shore's cut rates do not affect Lake Shore business. ' The fact that the Lake Shore bondholders at their meeting indorsed the action of the receiver in cutting rates i* a set back for the bull side, and that there will be a further re durtion of rates right away is generally be lieved. The Grand Trunk has notified the West Shore that relations will be resumed as' soon as their affairs with other com panies are settled. This means simply that the present lull in the rate war is a tempo rary affair. Woorishaffer says that the country is on the verge of serious financial troubles which will necessitate lower wages for labor and brine about strikes and other labor disturb ances. Henry Clews 'says that he thinks the mar ket has struck the bottom and he advises purchases particularly of Northwestern when- ever prices fall off. Shipments of gold from Europe are becoming quite large of lute, -00,000 pounds baring been forwarded from London this morning. Morgan, Smith, Gould and White have formed a pool to bull stocks. The Pott's financial article says: "It is believed that the Pennsylvania will soon adopt the heroic remedy of cutting westward passenger rates to a price that will insure so large a loss that any road financially weak will be obliged to succumb. ' The street was free of rumors, and there was but little excitement at any time. There seemed to be no particular pressure of stock.-. and at the finish the market m steady and nearly all stocks showed a slight improve* men t for the day.

The Republicans are greatly discouraged at their small success in Ohio. Their re duced majority disheartens them. . They confidently expected to carry the state by 23,000 to 30,000 majority. • The managers add distributers of money confidently ex pected to surprise and enthuse tbeir own party, and dumbfound and depress the Dem ocrats, by a mountainous majority. A Washington dispatch says: Col. Dudley, who bad charge of the mo- i netary matte. s for the Republicans in the state, said to a correspondent: 'I don't like the way they cut down our boom ; It .tikes some of.the wind out of it and decreas- ' es the aid it would have given as in other doubtful states. I could not see when I left | Ohio on the night following the election, how Iwe could possibly get less than 11.000." ••Now the Republicans will have to light for ; New York and Indiana, won't they!" i 'Yes, to be frank about it we bare a very hard I fight before us."

He was standing on the street at noon to-day. looking blue. Said be : "lam very much disap pointed that we did not do better in Ohio. • I looked for 20,000 majority. But it is a big thing to reverse 12,000 Democratic majority. ' That is my conclusion. If we had . gotten I 20,000 majority in Ohio we coord easily have j carried Indiana.

Report of the National Convention Held at Indianapolis Yes terday. 9 Indian ai'oi.is, Oct. 24. — The national con* vention of soldiers and sailors assembled here thid afternoon, in response to a call issued l<y Gen. F. W. Haskell and Gen. Merrill. Delegates were present representing about 1,100 organizations. The object of the con vention is to take action looking to securing pensions for all soldiers and sailors of the lute war. Gen. J. K. Curnahan •was elected chairman and John O'Harresty secretary. The states were called showing delegates present from New York, Massachusetts, Ver mont, Maine, Pennsylvania, Ohioj Michigan, lowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas, Mis souri, Kentucky, . Indiana, Maryland and . the District of Columbia. Ohio, Indiana and Illinois were largely rep resented. It was ordered that all resolutions be referred to the committee on resolutions without reading. The call for the conven tion was then read and a committee on resolutions appointed. The committee was made to consist of one member from each state, with S. 8. Burdette, of the District of Columbia, us chairman. The committee j retired to prepare its report, and the inter vening time was occupied in listening to reminiscences, recitations, etc. When the committee returned the following resolutions were read : . We, ex-soldiers and sailors of th« Union army and navy in the war of the rebellion of 1861—1865, now iv mass convention assem bled do now present to our comrades and our representatives in congress our views and our desires on the question of pensions. . Believing that our comrades who arc now suffering from disease or wounds are entitled to the kindest consideration at the hands of congress, therefore be it Jtmotved, That we ask the following amend ments to the present pension laws: First, that every person who has served in the military or naval service of the United States for the period of three months during the war of tl<p rebellion and has an honorable discharge therefrom, and who is or shall be come disabled, and shall also be depend ent upon his own labor for support, shall be placed upon the list of pensioners of the j United States, and be entitled to receive a y I pension during the continuance of such dis i ability at a rate proportionate to the degree thereof. Second, that all widows or minor children of soldiers' and sailors, who as such are now receiving under the existing laws the sum of 18 per month, be entitled to and receive the sum of $19 per month, and all such widows or minor children who shall hereafter bs found to be entitled to the rate of $S per month under the existing laws, shall be en titled to and receive the rate of £10 in lieu of said rate of $8. Third, that if any invalid pensioners have died, or shall hereafter die, leaving a widow or minor child under eight years of age, both of such widows or minor children shall be entitled in the order of succession named to the original pension in their own name, without being required to prove that the death of such pensioner was due to his mili tary or naval service in the United States. Fourth. That pensions granted widows on account of minor children shall be continued without limit as to age, wherever it shall appear that such minors are of unsound mind or physique and helpless so as to ren der them incapable of earning subsistence. Fifth. That in considering the claims of dependent parents. the fact and cause of death and the fact that the soldier left no widow or minor children having been shown, it shall be necessary only to show that such dependent parent is without other present means of comfortable support than his or her own manual labor. Sixth. That in all applications where it appears that the applicant was regularly en listed and mustered into the service, that act shall be prim a facia evidence of the soundness of the time of his enlistment, but such pre sumption shall be subject to rebuttal by the record or other competent evidence. Believing that the foregoing em braces only just and equitable demands of the veterans of the late war, and as all legislation to ibis end must depend upon the active co-opera tion of the legislatures and the officials of the country, we earnestly urge upon the soldiers and sailors of the war against the rebellion to jive their support at the polls to only such candidates as arc, and ever has been in fa vor of such just legislation in the interest of the men who stood in defense of the country in its hour of need. The resolutions were unimously adopted and Mr. Burdette, chairman of the commit tee, instructed to bring the matter to the at tention of congress. Adjourned. The Missionary Convention.
