Port Arthur Invested Completely. CHINESE MUST SURRENDER. .No Preparations for a Long Resistance. CONSTERNATION AT TIENTSIN. Chinese Officials Do Not Deny the Serious Character of the Kiuren Disaster. London-, Oct. 30.— A disna'cb to the Times from Shanghai states that it is re ported there that the Japanese have com pletely surrounded Port Arthur and the Chinese forces defending that place can not bold nut long. The Times will to-morrow publish a dis patch from Yokohama saying that a third Japanese army numbering 20,000 men is assembled at Hiroshima. The Times publishes a Bong-Kong dis patch stating that William Hill, an Ameri can, has been arrested and fined SIOO for sketching the defenses of Hong-Kong. Tientsin, Oct. 30. — The news of the Chinese defeat north of the Yalu River has caused consternation here. The Chinese officials do not attempt to deny the serious nature of the disaster. The next fighting is expected at Tort Arthur. The forces at Kiuren were commanded by Generals Song and Lin. The Chinese occupy a very strong position at Hong Wang, the castle being guarded •by 20,000 men. Troops are being massed at Kin Chow, with a view to the defense of Port Arthur. DENBY AT PEKING.

Ten Carloads for Japan Held in Tacoma. TACOM \, Wash., Oct. 29.— Ten carloads of refined lead, aggregating 447,769 pounds, arrived here Saturday over the Northern Pacific for shipment to Yokohama by the steamer Tacoma, sailing to-morrow. It is in pigs of 250 pounds each, cocies from j the Balbach Smelting and Refining Com- j pany of Newark, N. J., and is consigned ! •to the city of Yokohama. To-day the waybills were placed in Dep uty Collector Dorset's hands *nd he, fear ing the lead may be contraband of war, has wired to Collector Saunders for in structions. Nothing preventing, the lead is to be loaded on the steamer to-morrow. New water works are being constructed at Yokohama and the Deputy Collector thinks the lead may be intended for use iD manufacturing lead water pipes. Charles Page of the firm of Page & Eels, which was prominently concerned in the celebrated lta; a case, said last night that the reported action of the cust>ms authori ties was altogether unjustifiable. "Why," said lie, "ihis question was finally disposed of in the ltata case, tbe facts of which are still fresh in th? minds of the public. A* a matter of fact, any one can buy anything for war purposes or not in the United States, and cannot be prevented from shipping bis purchase by any talk that it is 'contraband of war.' '"During the Franco-Prussian war a Senate committee, comprising Senator Carpent-r and other leading lawyers of the couutry, decided that if he so desired the Emneror of Germany could come over to the United States and personally pur chase and ship any munitions o f war he required. Moreover, the French Govern ment did actually at that time buy up all the old muskets and other arms available here after the Civil War. No such limit as is indicated in the dispatch can be jus t.fiably placed upon enterprise." APPELLATE JURISDICTION. Appeals May Be Taken From the Court of Land Claims. Washington. Oct. 29.— 1n the Supreme Court to-day Chief .Justice Fuller handed down a decision in the case of the Uuited States vs. Earl B. Coe iovolving Mile to the Algodens laud grant of Ariz ma upon a motion to dismiss on tbe ground tbat Con gress bad no power (a confer upon the Su preme Court jurisdiction to entertain an appeal from a decree of the court of pri vate land claims, by which this case was originally tried, because the latter i* not vested with political power iv virtue of any provision of the constitution. The motion to dismiss was denied and the de cision becomes of importance as it affects all tbe decisions of the private land claims court. Tbe decision concludes as follows: "As wherever the United States exercises the power of government, whether under spe cific grant or through the dominion and sovereignty of plenary authority, as over the Territories, that power includes the ul timate execntive, legislative and judicial ' powtr, if follows that the judisdication of all inferior courts established may, in ac cordance with the constitution, be sub jected to the appellate jurisdiction of tbe supreme judicial tribunal of the Govern ment. There has never been any ques tion in regard to this as applied to Territor ial courts, aud no reason can be perceived for applying a different rule to the adjudi cations of the court of private land claims over j roper ty In the Territories." HUDSON BAY RAILROAD. Capital Has Been Secured to Build the Line.

GRESHAM PROTESTS. And Germany Will Probably Pay Little Heed to Him. Washington, Oct. _.».— Secretary Gres ham has made a very strong representa 'ion to the German Government as to the injustice to the United States of the order prohibiting the importation of American cattle and fresh meat Into Ger many. He has protested that the action was taken without sufficient evidence of the existence of disease among the cattle exported from the United States or its contagions character or harmful effects. There is some reason to hope, it is said, at the State Department, that the United States Government trill be able to secure a suspension of the order, for a time at leas', to afford an opportunity for further investigation, and one reason for this be lief is founded on the change in the Ger man chancellorship. One of the secretaries of the German Embassy when asked to-day about Ger man exclusion of American meats and the protests against that action by Secretary Gresham cited the recent interview with a Chicaco meat-packer to the effect that we were sending very little meat or cattle into Germany anyhow, as evidence that the importance of the action of the German Government had been much exaggerated. He knew nothing, he said, of the protest of Secretary Grosham against Germany's action. "There is no probability," continued the Secretary, "that the new Chancellor will inaugurate any change in policy toward the importation of American cattle. With us all questions of policy originate with the Emperor and are not subject to changes in tbe personnel of the Govern ment." ENO TO STAND TRIAL. Decision of Great Interest to Bankers. State Courts Can Take Cognizance of Offenses Under the National Banking Law. Washington, Oct. 20. — The United States Supreme Court to-day reversed the decision of the Circuit Court in the case of John C. Eoo, formerly president of the Second National Bank of New York, con victed of forgery in a New York State court ten years ago. En* raised the point that be could be tried only in the Federal courts. This view of the Jaw was upheld by the Circuit Court, but isop.et by to day's decision remanding tbe case to the State courts. ■■.. \f-. //; .'"':,^ The ground on which Eno resisted State court jurisdiction was tbat the offense being under the banking laws of the United States it was within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal court. The case has been watched with interest by bank officers and others. Justice Harlan rendered the decision of the court, while Justices Field and Sbiras dissented in one opinion, denying the jurisdiction of tbe State courts. New York. Oct. 29. —John C. Eno re turned to New York City an February 20, 1893, after an absence of nine years in Canada, went to the office of Edward Mitchell, United Stat-s strict Attorney, aod surrendered himself on tbe indictment found against him by tbe United States Grand Jury on June 17, 1884. lit* was taken before Judge Wallace in the Circuit Court and admitted to ball in $20,000. On the following day he appeared in General Sessions and pleaded not guilty to six indictments against him found by the Grand Jury of the county. He gave bail in 510,000 on one indictment, but bis coun sel. Colonel Bliss, argued that the other five did not come within the jurisdiction of tbe State courts. Judge Cowing took the opposite view, and a writ of habeas corpus wan granted by Judge Wallace. Oi March 27 Judge Wallace ordered the release of Eno on the five indictments, de claring that the case came properly under the Federal jurisdiction as related to the national banking act. On May 16 the in dictment against Eno by the United States Grand Jury was dismissed by Judge Bene dict in tbe United States Circuit Court, criminal bench, on the ground that it was defective in that it was not sufficiently specific. Later in tbe year Eno was re arrested and beld In £30,000 ball on the same charges. Tbe decision of the Supreme Court, therefore, revives the. five indictments found by the General Sessions Grand Jury, aud be Is now to be tried on the sixth as well as on a cbarge by tbe United States District Attorney. SOP TO CAPRIVI. Emperor William Gives Him the Order of the Black Eagle. Berlin, Oct. 29— The Keichsanzeiger officially announces the Emperor has con ferred upon General yon Caprivi the order of the Black Eagle, set with brilliants, and upon Count Botho Eulenburg the cross and star of the Grand Commander of the Hohenzollern Order. The correspondent of the Associated Press learns from Vsrzin that upon re ceipt of the news of the Ministerial crisis, Prince Birmarck said : "I knew ibis to be an inevitable result. "Count Eulenburg was right integard to anti-socialist measures, and General yon Capri*] disagreed with him, and either one or both had to resign.

The Officers Have Got on the Track of Them at Last. Fort Smith, Ark.. Oct. 29.— United States Marshal Crump to-day received a telegram from Indian Agent Wisdom at Muskogee, I. T., in which the agent says be has received information tbat Bill Cook's gang, numbering twenty-one men. are near Talla«ha Mission, nine miles northeast of Muskogee. Washington, Oct. 29.— 1t has been de termined that no troops can be used to suppress the lawless bands in Indian Ter ritory unless called upon by the courts to assist Unred States Marshals. . Fort Gibson, Oct. 29.— Deputy Marshal Bouden and posse have come in with two prisoners, supposed to belong to the Cook gang. One of them gives bis name as Jim Price and is identified as the man who jumped his bond at Paris. Tex., eight months ago. He was under bond for steal ing horses and disappeared a few days before bis trial. CHEAP BREAD. Good for the City Poor, but Bad for the Farmer. '* New York, Ocr. 29.— The unprecedented slump in the price of wheat may bring woe to the farmer and speculator, but the situation is not as gloomy for the con sumers of bread, because' cheaper wheat Is to be followed, by cheaper bread. The New York bakers, following the; com mendable lead of their fellow-tradesmen of Washington, have decided to red'tc* the price of thread to conform to the relative price of : wheat. Ever since wheat began to tumble to the lowest price record in the history of the 'trad-, :.'a reduction in the { domestic tariff -of bread has beeu looked for, but it was not until last week,. when the bakers of Washington knocked off a cent from the price of ordinary bread, that the bread-makers In New York and other cities begun to ' consider the matter seriously. The reduction in Washington has caused the New York bakers to make a similar concession, tor although they will maintain the former prices the weight of the loaves is to be increased to double the present weight. In Washington a5 cent loaf of bread is now sold for 4 cents. In New York the 5-cent rate will be re tained, but the round loaf sold for that price will give place to a two-pound loaf sold at the same rate. SETTLE OUT OF COURT. There Will Be No Divorce in the Vanderbilt Family. Chicago, Oct. 28.— The Post's New York special says: There Is to be no divorce in the Vanderbilt family after all. It is announced to-day that the differences be tween William K. aod his wife will not be tired for the benefit of the world at large and New York society in particular, as indicated two months ago. At that time the exclusive sets of Lotnlon, Paris and New York were intensely agitated over the prospects of the most sensational sort ot a legal bat in which Mrs. William K. Vnderbilt, it' was expected, would reveal to the rublic gaze no end of indiscretions and violations of the marriage vow on the port of her husband, who is worth 5.85,000. --000 and who poses as the social representa tive of his family. The announcement that Mr?. William would take her griev ances to the court with a view to securing a good big slice of Hr. William's $85,000, --000 and the custody of their children created, as may be imagined, a bona-fide sensation, though such a step was not unexpected by the initiated of the exclu sive "150," who are supposed to represent the creme de la creme of the American aristocracy. DREAD A STRANGLER. Denver Women in Fear for Their Lives. Two of Them Have Been Murdered and Five Men Are Under Arrest. . Denver. Oct. 29— The Inmates of a house on Market street are in a state bor dering on panic in consequence of tbe be lief that they are in danger at the bands of a supposed sirangler. On September 3 Lena Tat per was found choked to death in bed, and the murder still remains a mystery, although Richard Demady, with whom she lived, was arrested and is now under bonds awaiting action Id bis case. Yesterday Marie Contassert was found dead in bed, and her appearance Indicated that she, too, bad been choked to death. Richard Demady. Charley Schoten and John Callahan have been arrested. Demady recently made overtures to Marie, which sbe refused. She had lived witb Schoten until a week ago. Callahan claimed last week to have been robbed of £170 in Marie's bouse, and he was seen in the neighborhood on Saturday night. Antonio Santopietro, messenger of the Police Department, and Emil Taymens were also arrested on suspicion. Both were in the house, according to their state ments, when the murder was committed, yet they heard no disturbance. Taymens was employed by the woman as cook, and is said to have been very jealous on ac count of the preference shown by her for I Santopietro. Santopietro had been dis ; missed from" th. police force. The mur dered woman is believed to have had con siderable money, and as : only 75 cent, was found in the house after the murder one theory Is that ' robbery was the motive of the crime.

CARLISLE CALLED OFF. Hill Need Expect Nothing From Washington. POLICY OF AGGRESSIVE SILENCE.' The Course of the Administration in New York Politics Sufficiently Indicated Now. Washington, Oct. 29.— 1t is now stated as an absolute certainty that Secretary Carlisle was stopped from delivering a political address in New York by the per sonal request of the President. While tbe Secretary's change of purpose has been supposed to have been due more to politi cal influence than to the pressure of offi cial business, it has not until to-day been said with absolute nositiveness that heiwas commanded not to speak. The official an nouncement made this afternoon by Sec retary Carlisle that be will make no political addresses during the pending campaign either In New York or in bis own State of Kentucky caused much comment. Whatever may have been the motives Inducing Mr. Cleveland to with hold even his moral support from Senator Hill in bis great struggle, this eleventh hour final decision to not only maintain silence himself but to impose a gag upon his chief subordinates bas created a small mutiny in the Treasury Department It had been hoped by employes from New York Slate that Secretary Carlisle would make a speech ln behalf of Senator Hill, which could be so smoothed over as to have a compensating effect for Mr. Cleveland's remissness. This hops has now been dissipated, and employes interested in Mr. Hill are mani festing symptoms of disgruntlement Tbey comfort themselves with the belief that Secretary Carl Is blameless in the mat ter, as he would of his own option Lave taken the platform ; but they severely and caustically censure the President, not only for his failure to aid Hill because of j_er sonal rivalry aud dislike, but for interfer ing to prevent the extending of solace and comfort by those upon whom tbe Senator has relied for help. New York, Oct. 29.— Notwithstanding the quiet appearance of the different political beadqurters to-day, a great deal ot active political work was in progress both here and outside, and there is no doubt that the leaders of all the organiza tions are fully alive to the- fact that ouly a week remain- before the day. of election. ' All express "the' utmost confidence; of success. So fur as the city is concerned the Tammany jnen place great reliance on their thorough organization, and even their opponents admit that the full Tammany vote will be polled. The adherents of the committee of seventy ticket base their firm belief in winning upon the conviction that there will lie, regardless of ordinary political methods, an uprising of people such as overthrew the Tammany ticket in 1871. Much of the quiet work done to-day was directed toward detecting fronds in registration and toward arranging to get to the polls without fail all who are duly registered. H&Vtit Men who seldom take an active part in politics are laboring to make converts of personal friends, and there has seldom been a campaign in which there was more private tolliical discussion. Perhaps ibe most important incident of tbe day was the attempt of an evening newspaper to implicate Colonel Strong In an old matter involving leanings toward the A. P. a. and tils prompt denial of any intentional participation in it. Tbere were many Democratic ioli:icians at the State headquarters, especially from the Hudson Klver counties acd the sea board. " ■; ■.:..;; i _:*Vy Among the speakers from other States whose services have been secured for the closing efforts of the Hill Democrats in New York are Chauncey F. Black, lately Democratic Lieutenant-Governor of Penn sylvania, and James Carr, clerk of the House of Representatives. The speaking campaign is to be continued up to Satur day night all over tbe State, and the num ber of meetings held in small places up to that day will be beyond precedent in any State campaign of similar duration. .£K,': .. It was announced at State Democratic headquarters that John M. Sheebnn, presi dent of the Sbeehan Club of the Twenti eth Assembly District, bas sent iv bis resignation from Tammany Hall to-day, aud that he and the members of his club, 118 in all. had joined the State Demo cratic organization of the district, which P. YV. Creroey Is chairman. It was also announced that Austin J. Keiliy of the same Assembly district bad resigned from Tammany Hall, and with two other voter* bad joined the State Democratic organiza tion. _-;=•■■ ■/.•Yy.rr"; Tbe attention of Mr. Jerome, campaign manager at the headquarters of the Com mittee of Seventy, was directed this fore noon to a report emanating from the Grant headquarters to the effect that the committee bad violated tbe statute of '1892 by sending . out circulars appealing for funds to the city and judicial i .Beers. His only comment was: "The members of the Committee of Seveuty are able to take care of themselves as far as any violation of the election law is concerned. They are not at all disturbed by such reports as this." At a meeting of the Real Estate Ex change Honest Government Club tbis evening resolutions were passed and Tam many Hall was vigorously assailed. A letter from Levi P. Morton was read, in which the Republican nominee for Gover nor declared himself in full sympathy with the aims and purposes of tbe club. .'Comparatively little betting on the re sult of the election is being done, except* on the Stock Exchange. There are' odds of 10 to 8 given 'that Morton's plurality for Governor will exceed **• 25. 000, F.T. Adams placing £2000 against $1600 of T. H. Meter's money. An offer was made one of the Wormsers to put up $1000 to $400 on the plain proposition of Morton's election, but there was no taker. A few. bets have been placed on the mayoralty issue at £100 to £80 In favor of Strong. As a rule, though. Republican money Is held for bets on better terms.^'^y'l^i^^lliS^ Syracuse, N.

Carl Schurz Twists the Tail of the y:: Tammany Tiger. New York, Oct. 29.— Cooper Union was crowded to-night with the Reform Demo crats to express their determination to support Everett T. Wheeler, their nominee for Governor. The audience was enthusi astic. Ex-Secretary Falrchild, who pre sided, made a speech preliminary to his introduction of Mr. Wheeler. The latter said it was needless for him to say more than to thank his friends for tbe evening's demonstration ana to ask them to stand shoulder to shoulder for the triumph of the cause of the Democratic principles on election day. Wheeler H. Peckham made a humorous speech scoring Grant, but Hon. Carl Schurz was the speaker of the evening, and his address was listened to with close at tention and freely punctuated witb ap plause. Mr. Schurz began by telling his hearers he was there as a private citizen, not en gaged in active politics, to tell them why he thought David B. Hill should not be elected Governor of the State of New York and Everett Wheeler deserved sup port. He went on: ':..--\' There is In this municipality a great struggle going on which is to decide whether the city or New York shall be owned by the inhabitants thereof or by Tammany Hall. It has long been popularly believed that Tammany Hall Is a nest of rapacious freebooters. Kecent disclos ures or corruption, blackmail, robbery, of vice and crime planted aud protected for revenue, of terrorizing, of cruel oppression practiced upon the poor, the weak and the helpless, have gone far beyond popular expectation. The good citizens of New York concluded at last that It was time to make an end of i his. Tammany chiefs became alarmed. They saw a day or judgment coming. Their head chief (Croker) took to his beeis. He gathered un the princely fortune he had saved from his reve nues as King or New York aud retired as a Tammany 'sage,' completely conscious of having secured bis harvest in season. Bat the other Tammany chiefs weie not so comfort ably settled. They had to brave the coming storm. They felt themselves put to their wits' end aud tried various devices. They sang the song of harmony as sweetly as any . suck ing dove. They would forswear all selfish designs. They would nominate a" high-toned citizen for Mayor. They would even indorse a ticket nominated by reform Democrats. They would do anything to make people forget the tiger's teeth and claws until after election. But all in vain. Id their extremity they remembered that in their kind of policy tbe shorter way from one point to another Is a crooked line. The salva tion they could not expect to win directly in New York they might secure by a flank march via Albany. They bethought themselves of tbeir life-long friend, tbelr trusty confederate, David B. Dill.' .If they could only make him Gov-rnor again tbey need not trouble them selves about a defeat In a Mayoralty election. But would friend Hill be willing to accept i he nomination for the Governorship? Hardly. Comfortably ensconsed for several years in the Senate, be would not like to take unnecessary risks. If asked beforehand be would refuse. Tammany therefore resolved to nominate bim without ask ing, and the game succeeded. It is .universally known' and not contradicted that the stampede in the Democratic State con vention which thrust the nomination on Hill, was planned and managed by Tammany, and tbat Hill bad been nominated and virtually accepted, and fouud himself harnesed to the Tammauy cart ere he bad lime to rub his eyes. That this sly fox would be caught by surprise may seem ludicrous, but it is more than a joke. It Is the revenge of rate; it is the sin or the evil-doer coming home to roost; it is the devil claiming bis own. So oft-n baa Hill rlddeu Into places of power on the back of Tammany and the State machinery that Tam many and its allies have a right to jump on his back and say, "Now, we will ride you for our salvation; we have done your work now you do ours." All th's Is perfectly lit and proper. Hill and Tammany are bound together by natural ties They are one flesh and. one blood; their principles are the same, their methods are the same, their aims the same, and they know, as Ben Franklin said, that they will have to bang together or they will hang separately, as Tammany has always fought Hill's battle, so now Hill fights the battle of Tammany, it means. In one word, that every vote for Hill is a vote for Tammany Hall, and all tbat it Im plies. In the first place it is said that David B. Hill has shown himself to be an able man. Yes, and how ably, after he bad once risen to political prominence, did be manage to attach to himself the mercenary elements of bis party and frame out of them tbe worst political machine tbis State has ever seen ? How ably he used the machine to undermine Mr. Cleveland In the Democratic organization of this Stale. How ably he strove to belittle tne tariff Issue until that Issue was generally accepted. How ably be contrived whi-n Mr. Cleveland, in 1888, was for ihe sec ond time a candidate for the Presidency, to get for himself tv this State as a candidate for Governor a plurality of many thousand, while Mr. Cleveland was sacrificed. How ably be took $15,000 out of a public contract, and therefore out of tbe people's pocket, and used it in his campaign. How ably be Instigated tbe crime of abstracting au election return, falsify ing an election and stealing (be Senate. How ably he championed the crime, advocated the elevation of a criminal to the highest tri bunal of the State as au act of simple justice and set down our foremost lawyers wbo bad some respect for the honor of the judiciary as a brainless set of camby-pambys. How able when he led his party alter having insulted tbe people of me State with such a nomination Into humiliation and defeat by more tban a hundred thousand votes. How able when he got up his famous snap convention, thus stealing for himself the Demo cratic delegation of tbe State and falsifying tbe public sentiment of Its people. How ably he managed Mr. Cleveland's second election In 1892. to make the Cleveland vote fall behind the ordinary party streugtn In almost ail tne counties In which Hilt's personal influuence was especially strong. How ably he labored as a member of the Sen ate to baffle the Democratic administration on every public measure iv which it took a special Interest. How ably be fougnt day In and day out to keep the McKinley tariff law. on the st.itute-book as (he law of the land under the pretext rof demanding an amendment to the Wilson tariff law which be knew could not be adopted. There Is no abler general In the Democratic ranks. Tbere is no abler traitor to Democratic. principles and policy; no abler de moralizer of Democratic virtue; no abler enemy of the Democratic administration. There are few rogues lv holiness whom David B. Hill canuot beat at their trade. There seems to be lots of credulous citizens over whose eyes .: he is still able to pull the wool. ~ 1 leave lt to you to think out what will become of the country and your party If such ability ls to rule their movements. Continuing his criticisms Mr. Schurz asked his hearers t. look the situation squarely in the face. .i^^^SH There Is an anti-Democratic sentiment sweeping over the land. We all know li. Dem cratlc defeats crowd one another. What is the trouble ? No doubt the bard times bave some thing to do wltn It." But. In spite of the bard times the Democracy would have a good fight ing chance did It stand before the country with a character commanding respect : and confi dence. Why does tt not?

Even thousands of Re publicans would vote against It. What, then, Is the trouble? it is corrupt and treacherous leadership. It is your Tammany, your Hills, your Gormaus, your Murphys, your Brlces. your Smiths, that have disgusted decent men and made them doubtful whether the Demo cratic party is capable of conducting the Gov ernment honestly and for the general good. That is the trouble. We are told that Mr. Cleveland may support Hill. I trust not. I should urea deplore It If President Cleveland was weak enough to consider it his duty and for the welfare of his party to support every tainted character regu larly nominated. But it would not alter the situation. And now I ask you to open your eyes aud look as sensible, self-respecting, patri otic men at the miserable plight of your party. What a farcical spectacle this ls, this so-called heroic campaign ; Hill himself the great mogul of the machine with the brand of fate already upon bis forehead, rushing from place to place praising the tariff he voted against, fawning upon Cleveland, whom lie ins been stabbing In the back. Concluding, Mr. Schurz said he turned to the reform organization of the Democratic party with a feeling of relief and hope. Your acts have been as great as your words. Your platform Is a model Democratic plat form—lndeed, the model platform of the day and your standard-bearer, Everett P. Wheeler, Is by his principles and bis puhlic and private virtues the model candidate. It is objected that this will not be ihe regular organization of the State. The answer ls that the true Democ racy must uot rest until it becomes the regular Democracy. It Is objected, also, that this Involves Democratic defeat. The answer is that great reforms are never accomplished by those whom the thought of defeat can frighten from their post. The worst defeat of Democratic, principles, Democratic morals and Democratic pros pects would be David B. Hill's election. And here is the genial duty true Democrats of New York have to perform. Every vote for Hill is a vote for corruption and machine politics and for the demoralization and decay of the Demo cratic party. Every vote for Everett i*.

V., Oct. 29.— A mass-meet ing, the proportion of which bas never been paralleled in Albany, was the result to-night of the fusion of the two branches of the Democracy to tender a erecting to Senator Hill, who is now a resident of this city. At least 4000 people thronged the great hall, and as many more, who were on the outside and unablo to gain admis sion, listened to the speakers. A noticeable feature of the affair was the presence on the stige as a co-speaker with Senator Hill, of Congressman Charles Tracy, who is looked upon as a personal representative of President Cleveland About 1500 men took part in the escort nf Senator Hill to the hall, among whom was a body of G. A. If. veterans and two labor organizations. In the boxes at the hail were, such Cleveland adherents as Jud.e Hicknk, Collector of the For*, John Mas -prionranQ-MJ-netal Farm* worth, j The Democratic phalanx that escorted Cleve land to Washington, when he was inaugu rated was applauded to the echo when they entered the hall. Amos 3. Parker took the gavel and pre sided over the meeting. When Senator Dill was introduced he was received wi:h a storm of applause. He said in part: Two years ago In this hall I had the pleas ure of speaking for Hie national ticket of Cleveland and Stevenson, and now again I ad dress the united D mocracy in Albany County a Democracy united for victory. I call your attentiou to the fact that the campaign it 1892 was one that was won on Its merits and I am convinced that we can wiu all oiir campaigns in the same way. When I started the campaign this time I determined that it should be as clean as that one, aud I have no time to notice every dog that barks at mv heels, despite the fact that the orators of any other party are violent and vicious in their at tacks. Icm stand or I can fall ou the prin ciples and the platform of my party and not deal lv personalities. [Apnlause.l He paid his respects to the constitutional convention in about the same strain as at other places and denounced the apportion ment proposed as .a purely partisan one, saying that it was expected to pass it be cause of the peculiar exciting conditions. lam here to say that they have reckoned without their host, and this very appointment scheme has united our party in the St te as nothing else could unite It. Sneaking of the short visit of Mr. Mc- Kinley to Albany, and his advocacy of his own bill, he continued: '/-' "*■'■. Tbls question was passed upon by the peo ple iv 1892 iv one of the greatest educational campaigus ever known. The decision expressed then by the people was based upon intelligence and good judgment. We have nothing to tear from a redlscusslon of the tariff question. 1 do not believe the peo ple Intend to change our can they be led to change their decision of 1892. All lean say of Mr. McKinley is tbat be has run mad on the high protective tariff question, and be and other Republican party leaders seem to have lost tbelr teason. You would think from reading bis speeches tbat high tariff taxation was a blesslug; that the tariff was not a' tax,- and that the foreigners pay tbe tariff tax. I will not Insult your In telligence in discussing these; jf questions. Your verdict in 1892 shows that you have thought these questions out for yourself. Mr. McKluley arraigns the Democratic party for the crime of reducing taxation through a re pression of the laiitf. We are ready to be in dicted and convicted ou this arraignment and will confidently abide the declslou of the peo ple, and to my mind nothing but tbe repetition of the magnificent vote of 1892 in ibis State awaits us as the result of such convictions. If we do not succeed tbls fall we will ln the end just so sure as tbe sun shines.
