Mr. bheehan called on the Chairman just after the latter had had his breakfast at the Fifth Arenue Hotel. He hail a half hour's talk till the Senator. Treasurer St. John called about the same tlmo and talked about the low eb'j In the Bryan campaign treasury. When these statemcn had seen the Chair man and had raid that the had nothing to nay to the reportors about tho result of their -visit. Senator Jones received the reporters and told of Ills mission In New York. "I desired," said he, "tn meet some of the party leaders, because tho New York Stale Con vention ts tn be Held, next week, and 1 wished to talk with them about the character of the cam paign which Is to be conducted here after that Convention. The management of the cam paign, of course, will be entirely In tho hands of the Stato Committee, and any thing the National Committee does will be dune in an advisory rapacity. We are Interested In knowing who will manage the campaign and In having an active campaign conducted. That Is all I have written to several gentlemen and communicated with others by wire, asking them tn meet me here to-day. I hare not heard from ome of them. 1 sent a telegram to Sen ator Hill and have had no reply. lVrhaps he did not receive my communication." Toward evening, when Senator Junes's list of caller was still destitute of the name of party leaders, be said that he had been Informed that his telegram had not reached Senator Hill. When asked If ne had sent another request tn Senator Hill, or if the latter bad communicated with him In any way, he replied that neither of tbete things had occurred. He said he believed that Senator Hill would be for Bryan and the platform, and Senator Faulkner echoed this. The Impending resignation of William F. Sheehan aa National Committeeman, which Tni Set mentioned the other day. was talked abo'jt, and Senstor Jones was asked what the I National Committee will do about It. "If It la the purpose of Mr. Sueeban not to support the ticket I should suppose he would resign from the committee," said Mr. Jones. , As to nt succeaor. there Is some question as tn the right of the National Committer, to All the vacancy. I am sure, though, that there would be nn objection to any one who might ba recommended by the State Convention at Buf falo or b the State Committee." There will be no branch headquarters nf the atlocil Committee in this city, according to Senator Jones, who said that the State Com mittee woald bo quite capable of conducting the campaign In this Mate.

When he was asked to account for the heavy irrreaae In the Itepubllcan vote In that State he hemmed anit hawed a bit and then said tht Hindi tied uni sua! interest In the campaign. After generalizing nn the situation In the West. ttte Senator was pinned down to details and a'k'il as to the possibility of Bryan tarrying IlKnoi-. "lam not absolutely sure of carrying Illi nois" he said, "hut In the South nnd West the Pop 1 st, are going to v nte wil h us." The cnntnr refused to talk about the antics d the second tail to the Bryan kite Tom Wat son further than to say tnat ho did not be lieve Watson's speeches would injure Brian's chances.

Mr. Sheehan says he told the Chairman that, and als consulted with him regarding the Ilrran meeting at Tammany Halt to be held on reMt. '.'. at which he declared there will he 100.000 persons. A formerTammnny Hall leader who heard this prediction last evening said: " Bryan will be lucky If he gets 100.000 votes In New York Uty.and Just what that means will he understood when It la remembered that Harrison got within a few votes of 100,000 here In IW. " Kx-")herIIT Jimmy O'Brien, who called nn ' halrman Jones again last night to keep him mipany while Senator Faulkner was out look ing up party leaders In the hedges and high ways, was Inclined to talk slightingly of Tam many's management (if the Bryan meeting.

James Foley, a carpenter, 8fi years old, of 105 Third avenuo had an Interesting story to tell Magistrate Cornell, In Jefferson Market Court, yesterday, when he was arraigned by Police man Frank of tho West Thirtieth street station on a charge of Intoxication. Frank said that ho found Foley asleep on a stoop In frontof 112 West Eighteenth street at 7 I. M. Thursday. Foley seemed to be stupefied, and ho took him to the station In a patrol wagon, Foley, who described himself as n carpen ter, said that ho read In the newspapers that there was a strike In the Slegel-Cooper Company store at Sixth avenuo nnd Eighteenth street, and, as he knew that tho store would need workmen, he took his two boxes of tools, and went to the placo at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon to apply for a Job. He was mtt half a block away by some pickets of tho strikers and they Induced him to go to a saloon In Eighteenth street, near Seventh avenue. There they asked him to take a drink and ha took a glass of beer. The men then begged him not to go to work, and he told them that ho needed the monev badly. Several of his family were sick. He added that he had been out of work for some time past and that this opportu nity seemed to be a Uodsond. When tho men saw that they could not per suade him not to apply for work they asked him tn Uko another drink. Within two min utes after taking a second glass of beer he be gan to feel dizzy and ho remembered nothing more. He declared that the strikers must have drugged htm and then carried hliu out of the saloon to the street. He said that they had taken his two boxes of tools, which he valued at fiS. Policeman Frank said that he believed that the man had been drugged, as ho vvnn moro stncltlod than Intoxicated when arrested. Magistrate Cornell was much impressed by Foley's story, and said that It was a rase to be Investigated. He asked K ley tf he could Iden tify the men who had enticed him to the saloon, and Foley said that ho thought ho would know them again. Magistrate Cornell accordingly discharged Foley, and told Policeman Frank, whose beat Is In frontof the Slegel-Cooper store, to Investigate the carpenter's story, and If he could find tho alleged culprits to arrest them and bring them to court. nr.xcuEu tub whole enrrr.

Int., Kan., Sept. 11, Just as the plains of Kansas were beginning to resound with the Im petuous flow of Thomas E. Watson's throbbing eloquence this afternoon, a gentle'downpourot rain set In. It gradually Increased In volume until tho flow of water exceeded the flow of ora tory, nnd Mr. Watson was prevented from com pleting his work of hurling firebrands among friends and foes. This was Populist day at the Allen County Agricultural Exhibition, and a thousand or more Populists had gathered to hear the heated Southerner talk of their grievances. Mr. Watson began bis address by a review of con ditions before 187.T. He worked his way gradu ally up to the present, and Justified the present existence of tha People's party by the state ment that the Republlcaut had betrayed the people tn tho crime of '73, and tho Democrats had betrayed them by the crime of '03. Both parties had assisted In killing the Green, back party by asking It to trust Itself to the Democrats In the South and the Republicans In the West, He appealed to the people to leave both parties, and asked It Kansas waa yet true to the doctrine she taught to the Sonth. Cries of "Vest" greeted this question, and then Mr. Watson told his auditors that they were tn duty bound to vote for him In preference to Mr. Sewall. He said: " I am the only representative the People's party now has on the national ttcket. If lam removed Bryan will lose Texas, Tennessee, and Kentucky at least. To take me oft the ticket splits the silver party and electa McKInlcy. ICrlesof " That's right-" " Mr. Sewall Is not a true stiver man. He has not had the disease long enough. He supported a Democrat goldhug named Wlnslow for Gov ernor," Watson called Sewall a bondholder, a rail road Ling, a millionaire, a supporter ot McKln ley's tariff Idea, and a President of the Mer chants' Marine Association of Philadelphia, which asks for higher protection. Mr. Watson said also that Chairman Jones received a letter from Sewall at the time of the Populist Conven tion Intimating that he would step down and out whenever It was to Bryan's best Interest. The fact that the letter was published recently would Indicate that the time had come. "Senator June, wants Sewall to come oh the ticket. If he doesn't, let him deny It. brnn wants Sewall to come off, buWro can't say an thlng. What do you wantT Do you want to vote for Watson ? You can't do it In Kansas unless you put up a Bryan and Waton ticket, lull say 1 can have your votes If I beat Sewall In the rest of the country; here Is Watson, your friend; here is Sewall. your enemy. Ytivt can't help both. You stay in the loft whllo the tight between Nancy and the bear goes on and then when the tight is over, whichever way 11 goes, jou comedown and brag about how 'we killed the bear.' I don't go n cent on that fusion agreement of yours, because there Is no court to enforce It, I know these Democrats; they In tend the Kansas vole shall go to Sewall. no matter how the fight results outside. If you doubt this, ask them to take down their elec toral ticket and put uo ours. They won't do It, I will stand by that contract on one condition only, and that Is tnat you put on a Brian and Yv alon ticket. If yuu arc a Poputttt. be a horo of the faith, not a corrupted reneitade whn laid down his principles and defeated the purpose of his party. ' Mr. Watson said In conclusion: " All I ran do Is to appeal to the people to say whether I am to be placed under the heels of 4b Eaalern plutocrats," The ratfi'had btwn Increasing all through Mr. Watson's speech and so he cut II short. Then there was n general rush for shelter. ToPr.xA.Kan..Sept. 11.

Watson will go to Nuhrasica to-morrow night and will speak at Lincoln on Monday, and make two or three speeches at other points in that State during the week.

Tho cnlirirr-Jour-tidl this mornlnc has a half-column editorial article on Bryan and the Chicago Associated Press. It tar,; "It was evident during the whole of Mr. Itry an's speaking tonr that the Associated Press agent who accompanied him and wrote the de scriptive Introductions which preceded tho re ports of tho speeches waa the owner of an opu lent Imagination. He very rarely condescended to estimate a crowd at less than k'0,000. In many Instances ha reported the crowds at fig ures much larger than th entire population of the regions In which tho speeches were made. In several Instances the crowds were placed at 0,000 In halls whose capacity Is known to be not over 5,000, Indeed, theso reports through nut the whole tour r. ero so ridiculously extrava gant that It was a common observation that the Associated Press seemed to bo a thorough Bryan partisan, "It now turns out that the man authorized by the Associated Press to mako theso reports waa Mr. Bryan's own private secretary. This being understood. It Is entirely unnecessary to. say anything more on the subject. " But, as we depend upou the Associated Press for a part of the news, we are desirous that It should furnish us only trustworthy news.

London, Sept. 11. Even European diplomacy now recognizes the fact that the Immediate set tlement nf the Turkish question Is Imperative and Inov liable. It atltl It true that only In Oreat Britain has the pressure of public opinion upon the Government become Irresistible, but popular sentiment In Franro nnd Germany Is beginning to pronounce the doom of "the great assassin," as Gladstone to-day descrllies him, It Is persistently reported that the Powen have decided tn dethrone Abdul Hamld by force and to Install another Sultan In ths Ylldlx Kiosk. It Is doubtful It this action really has been agreed upon. It Is probable, on the other hand, that the report that no agreement has been rrAohnd may ho accepted ns true. How ever that may be, tha Powers all admit thn necessity ot adopting radical measures which will Involve the stripping of the present Sultan of hit power for mischief. This Is a distinct advance from the position taken by Hussla and tne. other Powers In the crisis of last No vember. It means practically their consent to the reopening ol the Eastern question nnd tho grappling with the enormous perils of that situation. New indications appear almost hourly tend ing to show England's determination to face nnd. If necessary, to fore the crisis. Public opinion Is being prepared carefully tor this ao tlon by the Ixindon Uovcrnmeut organs. Tbut the Stamford, In a strong leader to-day, says: "Is there no way by which this scandal to civilization In the dominions of the Sultan can be stopped without a European war T Surely If the arts of diplomacy are exhausted, as between the Powers and the present Sultan, another oo cupant might be. found for the somewhat peril out throne he hat disgraced. The role of Abdul Hamld Is not Indispensable to the preservation of tho Ottoman empire. It Is Inconceivable that be should be suffered to render nugatory the efforts of the Powers to dltcbargo their obliga tions toward the Christian races within his dominions. With all their resources, moral and material. It ought to be possible for the Powers to bring tho Sultan's era of Govern ment by massacre and outrage to an abrupt close, either with hltn or without him." Tho Standard further pleads for non-partisan public demonstrations In favor of Iurd Salis bury's adopting a strong policy, and protests against letting the agitation take on tha form of partisan criticism, which It threatens to do. There are other signs of a crisis nt baud. Even yesterdav's unexpected Increase of the bank rate and the fall of consols receive ft political Interpretation, nnd tho order of the Admiralty to-day for tho Immediate commissioning of six new commerce destroyers has a similar sig nificance. It Is by no means clear how the Sultan's depo sition would be accomplished, even if decided on. Nothing less than the forcing nf the Dar danelles b) the combined fleets and the lnndlng of a largo forco at Constantinople would be llkolv to bo effci live That would Involve heavy lighting and many complications, unless. In deed, the Turkish power of resistance suould collapse unexpectedly, as did the Chinese two years ago. It Is suggested that the moment has now arrived for the young Turkey party to act, Tho powers might give them tacit encourage ment to put a now Sultan on the throne by promising immediate recognition and moral support. The opinion Is gaining ground In Europe that Abdul Hamld Is one of the most cunning of madmen, and this strengthens the conviction I that it Is necessary to bo rid of him. The latest I news from Constantinople Is that popular ap prehension Is Increasing. All Europe believes that a series of dramatic events Is Impending.
