I London, Juno 21. A despatch from St.
Paul ds Loanda, dntod yesterday, says:
"Oovcrnl desorters from Stanley's oxpcdltlon
. bavo reached Camp Yambuga. Thoy say tliat
after traversing tlio Uppor Aruwiml. Stanloy
struck Into a rough, mountntnous countrr,
covered with donso forests. The natives, who
woro oxcltcd by reports spread by tho Arabs,
disputed the passago of tho expedition, and
there was continuous lighting. Btonloy was
severely wounded by an arrow, no was com
pollod soToral tlmos to coustruct camps In or

"Tho Soudanoso attached to tho forco had

"Gov. Janssen left tho Congo on tho 15th
Inst on his way to Europe to consult regarding
tho sending of assistance to Stanley."
This despatch tndtcatos that Stanloy had
traversed at least two-thirds of tuo four hun
dred miles lying betweon Yambuga and Albert
Kranxa before he had serious trouble with tho
natives. Ixuthe Sanga District, about 200 miles
on his way, the country Is comparatively Hat,

able Information about the tribes living some
Ways wostof Albert Nyanza: but boyond giv
ing the names of throe of thorn, he sont no
Xurthor particulars.
Tho despatch says that all tho Soudanese
soldiers attached to tho party had died or dis
appeared. Stanloy had with him only seven
teen Soudanoso, the rest having boon left be
hind at Yambuga. If It is true, as tho desert
ers estlmato. that the caravan had lost ono
thlrd of Its men. tho loss amounted to about
130 mon, as the caravan numbered about 400
porsons. Tho European assistants a tho cara
van, all of whom aro said to be ill, are Lieut
Stairs, Cant. Nolson, Dr. Parke, and Mr. M.
Jophson. It must bo remembered that dosort
ors are tempted to mako tho circumstances of
r the party they abandon as desperate as possi
ble, and Stanley's misfortunes may therefore bo
exaggerated. It was u deserter who left Liv
ingstone nearKraBsa and reported at tho coast
to explain his presence thero, that the white
tnan was dead.
Tho report that only eighty of tho 125 Zanzl

not vory trustworthy, as the forco left to garri

It Is gratifying to know that the large
steamer Stanloy left Stanloy Pool in May to
carry roenforcements and supplies to Major
Barttolot at Yambuga, and also that Tlppu Tib
has at length succeeded In raising a largo
force with which to carry out his agreement
With Stanloy and transport the 600 loads of
goods which Btonloy was compollod to leave

If Mr. Ward has only tho steamer En Avant
at his disposal for the transport of men and
provisions to Yambuga. he cannot tako very
1 much aid and comfort to Barttolot, as the
capacity of that little vossel Is only thirty men
and their loads.

throo bodlos hao boon found In tho lmmcdlnto

cedars bohind the houso. His knees touched
tho ground, and tho ropo which hod bcon fas
tened around his nock was slack. At first It
was thought that ho had committed sulcldo,
but subsequent Investigation Ecrved to throw
doubt on this theory. His family rolntlons had
always boon ploasant, nnd his wife could as
sign no reason for sulcldo.
Johnson was not at homo yostordny, tho barn
maid said. His wlfo was sick In bod, but sho
consontcd to tell what sho know about tho
murdored man.
" Ho camo to our plnco about noon on Sun

to stop hero for a few days. I do not know
whothor ho had a great doal of monoy. but on

acting very strangely, and retired to his room
early In tho ovening. Ho locked tho door after
him securely. About 5 o'oclock this morning
hrai awakened by tho hallooing of ono of tho
watchmen of tho big hotols. nnd on looking out

The barmaid at JohnBnn's told tho Coroner
that it was sho who put Baugh to bod. Ho was

then went to bed himself. It was thun 7 o'clock

It was rumored yestordny that a fight had
taken place on Wednesday night in Johnson's
Eavllion nnd that a puporuaneor who hail
een engaged to decorate tho walls of some of

Benjamin F. Downing la n Brooklyn lawyor
nnd a somo tlmo District Attornoy of QuoonB
county, who has a Shoppoll cottago on llock
away Boach, ono lot oast of Mr. King's Sanita
rium, Botwacn tho two mon thoro Is hard
feeling ovor tho enstorn boundary lino of Mr.
King's proporty. Mr. King says that somo ten
yenrs ago ho bought of William Harper and
O. V. W. Eldrot a strip of land facing tho ocean.
It runs 800 foot Inlnnd, and Mr. King declares
that ho paid for a width of 147 foot On this ho
built ascn-curo hoto). His story is that tho
mon of whom ha bought tho land had a dls
puto about tho oastorn boundary with somo
ono else, and that not until two years ago was
ho told how that dtsputo was settled. Mr. King
had a pickot fence running along his land on
tho east on a line ovor which thoro was no dts
puto. Ho clalmod to own forty-sovon feet
further oast. Whon Harpor and Eldrot told
him their dispute was at an end they built n
homlock fonco forty-sovon foot dtstnnt from
Mr. King's plckotB. Then they Bald to him:
"Wo will sottlo the question by making an
nvenun for tho publlo betweon tho two fences."
Mr. King says he objected to this beoauso
thoy proposed to mnka a public nvenuo out of
his land. Ho fought it In nn easy way until
Inst Monday. Then ho realized that tho land
was gottlni: more and more valuable evory
yon r. nnd ho datermlned to onforco what he
considers to bo his rights. So ho had men
build n fence nt tho north end of tho avonuo."
This connected his plckots with tho homlock
fonco, and shut up tho sandy lane that lod
down to tho beach. That night Mr. King was
In Phllndolphln. Somo tlmo after dark his
matron. MIbs Cbarlotto Carlton, heard ham
mering, nnd saw a party of llvo mon knocking
down tho now fence. Sho called William
J. Blyth and Henry Wilson, two of Mr. King's
men. nnd togother thoy went to tho new fenoo.
Thoy say that Mr. Downing and a frlond,
Thomnt Tlldon. and somo Italians were tear
ing down tho fonco. Thoy had two big dogs
held with leathor Btrnpi. nnd whon Blyth or
dered them to stop demolishing tho fence Tll
don said to him, lie declares, "If anybody in
terferes wo will lynch him." Tho King peoplo
say that Tlldon nnd Downing threatened thom
with tho dogs, nnd finally knooked the now
lonce all to plecoB. ,, , .. ,
Mr. King has nut the enso in tho hands of
his lawyor. Mr. Downing wasn't at homo yos
tordny, but his wlfo Bald that hor husband
owned the proporty nnd had tho deods for it
Mr. King, howovor. Insists that it is his, nnd
thnt ho won't havo any more of what ho calls

Chicago, Juno 21. Look out for tho un

Sherman and Ben Harrison wont In brnvoly,
and to-night they aro riding tho swell

thrown woll back, tholr slroko Is sttong
and free, and, although tho eoa 1b filled with
tho bobbing hoads of rival swlmmors, thoy load
all tho rost As thoy got further out from tho
shoro thoy got ahoad Blowly and with difficulty.
Something draws them downward, and thoy
appear to loso buoyancy. Thoy are In tho
Blaine undortow. Will they eafoly strugglo
with tho treacherous current or will all bo en
gulfed? Tho thousands of spootntors who lino tho
beach to-night to catch gllmpsos of tho strug
gle In the dark wators cannot predict how It
will all ond. Thoy boo only tho bobbing heads
far out at boo. They cannot boo tho current In
whoseisuctlon tho swlmmors aro boating their
wny, but ovorybodr knows It is thoro. Andrew
Carnoglo's lottorin to-day's Sun, which was tol
ographod horo. and which said in effect that
Mr. Blaine would accept a nomination It it was
forced upon him by the Convention, stimu
lated the waning enthusiasm of tho California
and othor 'lrrcconcilablo Blalno men. and thoy
havo all to-day renewed allegtanco to tholr
candidate's fortunos. Thoy did not present
hts name in to-day's Convention, but nothing
can now prevent tholr casting their votos for
him to-morrow.
Tho Harrison boom cot Its first hard wrench
to-day from thoso samo Californlans. Somo
body brought to light anothor old pro-Chincso
speoob said to havo beon mado by Harrison,
and a part of tho California dologatos, who
have beon promising to break to tho Indiana
candldato after two or throo ballots, notified
the Hooslors that thoy could not stand by
Harrison. This dafoctlon discouraged tho In
diana mon; but thoy rallied with great vigor
and their lines still present a good front
It all depends upon Blalno whothor
Harrison wins ornot Tho Convention Is two
thirds Blalno. Strong as Shorman is, tho
friends of Blalno can beat him with Harrison
or Allison, or with Foraker or McKinloy. Tho
doubtful Stato behind Harrison is tho ono
thing that makes his position strong. There
Is nothing else In his candidacy, but that Is a
powerful factor with thoso hard-hoadod poli
ticians, who are playing ovory point for success.
Shorman has surprised evorybody by tho
trongth he has shown Blnco the stunning blow
ho suffered last night in having Mnhono's dolo
gatos thrown out His samo was put before
tho Convention to-day by clovor speakers, and
he got tho greatest hurrah ho has evor had In a
National Convention. Casual but artful refer
ences to Blalno by f different orators ovokod
far loss enthusiasm. That is ono of thu
mystorlous things about tho Blalno un
dertow. Its strength is undenlablo. Vet
either the magnotlo name has lost its
potency, or tho development of Blalno as an
oloventh hour candldato, If such is to be tho
programme, Is ono of tho bost hlddon move
ments evor attempted in our politics. Thero
is no doubt that suoh a schomo Is on foot with
soma, but not all of Blaino's friends aro at tho
bottom of it An accldont may develop its
proportions early In the balloting, or It may bo
tho final stroke after tho Convention has bo
como wearied of itsolf, and is ready to glvo up
the struggle.
It Is a very quoor Convention indood, and tho
part that Now York plays In It will bo ono of
its queorost features. Tho Now Yorkors do
not know at this moment where thoy will go
to-morrow when Depow gets his complement
and retires. Neither Mlllor. Piatt nor Depow
apparently can deliver thom solidly any
where. Miller would go to Shorman to boat
Blaine; Piatt would go to Blalno to dofeat
Sherman: Depow would toko no part in de
feating the ono or the othor, and would sup
port either It bis voto would mako tho delega
tion a unit Shorman and Blalno aro sure of
somo Now York votos, and If Blalno is not sud
denly pushed strongly forward Harrison will
got the votes of most of tho mon who want
Blaine.

The Civil Service Law Does Nat Affect the

Aldany, Juno 21. Tho Court of Appeals
rendered a decision on Tuesday, affirming tho
doclslon of tho General Term in Now York last
winter, that tho Canal Doportmont of tho Stato

sorvlco law in tho raattor of appointments.
Tho opinion was wrltton by Chief Justloo

Tho casn under which this deolslon Is ren
dered is that of ono Thomas G. Kllloen, who
brought a suit against the Juy and Ilichmond
Commission to compel thom to grnnt him an

Works. It was argued lu tho Supremo Court
at tho General Term, In Now York city, by
Attnrney-Goneral O'llrlon for tho poople, and
by Everett P. Whoolor for Killoon.
Tho Gonornl Term and tho appollate court
both hold that sections 8 and 5 of tho Consti
tution, undor which tho Superintendent of
Publlo Works is crentodv was tho outcome of a
popular desire to mako that officer in chargo

Even tho Chicago newspapers utlllzo tho sltua-

comforts of tho press, an officious Uttlo man, '!
a Mr. Bayno of Pennsylvania, put through a . '
resolution to provont the correspondents gains; .',
among tho delegates to gather what can bo cot
In no other way. As a rulo. tho woos of news

but in this caso thoy aro half as numer

country waits upon tholr pons. Tholr
seats tako up as much spaco as tho

Tho Convention was called at 10 o'clock, and S
long boforo that hour tho pooplo flllod tho gal- ,'
lories. It was so hot In tho top gallory that tho
men took oH their coats and showod so many , '
shirts that thoy turned that gallory white.
Down in tho first balcony, ovor tho honds of tho I
Kansas delegates, sat Mrs. John A. Logan,
portly woman with whlto hair and In widow's
woods. She sat over tho picture of William A, ,
Soward. tho first of tho portraits that dock the
front of tho balcony. Bhe was not choorod or
recognized by the maj'ority.
There were somo auoer folks in tho gallorias.
One enormous man displayed a faco so in

llko a harvost moon. Bohind him stood a mart
with opera glassos boforo bis oyos and a flarlnrr
trumpet in ono ear. Thoro always is ono man i
at each Convention with a cry or yoll so po- - j
cullar as to rivet conoral attontlon. In St j
Louis tho most peculiar cry was that of a man
who barked llko a terrier. Horo thoro is a .
Southerner with a lugubrious, pathetic, pro-
longed yoll llko tbo wall of a lost soul. Ono
other notablo peculiarity of tho gallory display J
was tho preBonco of brilliant rod gowns in f
groat numbers among tho ladios. Chicago j
womon run to wholo suits of IntonBO rod. Any ?
ono who has scon tho traditional Mephisto on )
tho stage can Imagine how tho dear girls look;
as thoy blaze among the crowds In tbo streets.
In tho Convention hall thoy looked llko jots of
flamo.
Chairman Esteo was In his place early with ,
nautical looking B. F. Jones at ono sldo ot him
and Carson Lako at tho other. AuEstooand
Jones bit down and Lako stands up tho latter
is the most conspicuous man In tho Conven
tion. Harry Smith, tho old journal clork of
Congress, was again at tho Chairman's elbow,
but It had been decided by tho Convention last
night that not even bo could mako a good
Chairman of Estoe. Tto first Impression Esteo
made was excollent but ho got rattled and I
went to pieces In tho confusion over tho .'
slaughter of Muhono and John Sherman's
boom last night. Had not Warner Miller camo
to his rescuo goodnoss only knows how tho
Convention would have got bock on the traok.
Esteo played sharp witli tho Conventlon.thouga.

It was hotter than boiling mush. Tho Now I

of tho three men who looks llko Chaunonr
Depow was In tho dolegates' seats. He VfHJ j
moving around among tho others as though
bn was a real boss like Chauncoy, with twenty
votes in his coat tall. Ho Is Mr. Whitney of tho I
delegation. Tho real Chauncoy's absonco from
the Convention during the last three sessions !
was explained this morning. Ho not only I
thinks hlmtelf a candidate, but Is convinced ho
will win. Never In modern politics has any y
man in his position heard so much plain talk :
ot a discouraging nature as Mr, Depow, Intl- I
mate friends, heavy-weight politicians, rail- j
road officials, and oven Joe Mod 1 11. to say noth- I
lng of Editor Itosowutor of tho Omaha Bee, I
bavo told him that ho cannot be noralnatod, (
and that If ho was ho never oould be olected,
The general understanding on Monday and ,
Tuesday was that although Chauncoy's head i
had buzzod with tho blggost Presidential j
bco on record, he had been satisfied of ,
tho impotency of his aspiration1 and jtraa
going to oik nothing more than a graceful exit I
by means ot a complimentary vote. But this
is not so. Ho has taken a now hold, and Is
mora strongly than over conviucod that his
tracks are the ones that lead to tho Whlto ;
Hour. Uls boom has been moved Into tho big
ladios' parlor, the boadquarters of his State,
and he is enjoying himself haranguing delega
