Although the American battleship fleet Is anchored off this city today In plain sight of shore, the crews are held in a state of quarantine, unable to leave the ships. Leaves were granted to officers, but under very close restrictions. This octjpn is necessitated on account of the cholera plague. The men are chafing under the dis crimination made against them, and are arguing that they are as able to guard against infection as the officers. Admiral Sperry and Governor Gen eral Smith held a conference this morning at which the matter was dis cussed, and in view of the prevailing conditions, it was thought best to keep the men aboard the ships. There are several cases of cholera daily, but the average has fallen quite below the figures of a week ago. The craft in Manila harbor is gaily decorated. Some of the ships reached Manila with only a few tons of" coal on board, and the colleries went along side of them to replenish the store as soon as they arrived. The court-martial of Lieut. T.

REPUBLICAN ESTABLISHED SEPT. 5, 1878. 1 Bryan Did Country a Great Service by Being Twice Defeated, Says Hughes St. Paul, Oct. 6.—"Mr. Bryan did the country a great service by being twice defeated. Had he been elected twelve years ago he would not be a candidate now, but would have gone down in the disaster of his own fallacies." In a speech here last night, Gov. Charles E. Hughes of New York thus summed up why he was working for the defeat of the democratic candidate for president. Mr. Bryan's proposed remedies for the correction of national evils, said Governor Hughes, were "Impossible, panaceas and curealls." The governor, after speaking at four teen towns on the tour, which in the next five days is to take him through the middle west states, appeared to be almost free of the throat trouble which threatened his voice. Large crowds, composed in some instances- mostly of farmers, greeted him at LaCrosse, Wis., and in Minnesota at Winona, St. Charles, Dodge Center, Mankato and other stops. Governor Hughes said he once came near not being governor of New York, Grand Forks, N. D., Oct. The elec tion contest case which was decided by Judge Templeton a few days ago, being the case of Nels Elvick of LaRo ta, against Harry Groves, contesting the nomination at the primary election to the office of county treasurer of Nelson county has been appealed by the plaintiff to the supreme court. When the returns were completed the election resulted In favor of Groves by one vote, the canvassing board also found a victory for Groves by one vote, but In so doing there was a number of ballots thrown out. The matter was argued before Judge Templeton and the ballots from one complete township in Nelson county which gave Elvick a majority and possibly the victory, were not counted, because the judge of election failed to sign the ballots. When the decision was rendered by Judge Templeton a few weeks ago, Groves was given the majority by something over thirty votes and this decision which gi*es him the nomina tion to the office of county treasurer of Nelson county has been appealed from hy Elvick through his attorney Fred Kelly of Lakota.

Governor Hughes said in part: "If you examine Mr. Bryan's rem edy for the correction of trust evils, you will find not only that it is not practicable, but that it is chimerical, undemonstrable and weaker under an alysis. Mr. Bryan proposes for one thing, that the corporations shall be restricted to manufacture of only 50 per cent of demand of any particular article. What would become of in ventions under this system? It would cripple the patent laws, it would re strict inventive genius.
