The train consisted of engine No. Ö'JJ, Engineer Jarues Coulter, and the drawing-room car Pavonia, Conductor Nelson Bransoti. At the Union Depot at Albany, before the train left, several hundred persons assembled to witness Governor Cleveland's departure. The Governor was driven down from the Executive Mansion in a closed carriage, aad talked through the main entrance cl the depot arm in arm with General Austin Lathrop, of his staff. The Governor's appearance was the signal for hearty cheerio?. The wive? of Messrs. Coming and Banks accompanied them to the depot and presented the Governor with a huge bouquet of beautiful flowers. At precisely 1:20 p. m. Conductor Branson gave the signal,the engineer gently opened the throttle and the train steamed out of the depot; the ladies waving handkerchiefs and the men shouting and locom tive whistles tooting. Governor Cleveland stood on the rear of the platform and waved his adieus to the throng. The weather which had been threatening all mornine cleared oil and all omens pointed to a prosperous and successful journey. At West Albany, where re located at the great car shops of the New York Central Railway, hundreds of workingmen, fresh from forge and bench, waved a greeting to the train as it whistled by; the rcen shouting and waving their grimy aprons, and gyrating their arms with their hands, still holding the tools and implements of peace. The train had a clear right cf way over everything, and ran to Syracuse on time. The train stopped at the Palatine bridge and at Uticafor water. At the latter point, being fifteen minutes ahead of time, the Governor appeared at the rear platform of the train at both places, and was enthusiastically cheered by thousands. The train bearing Governor Cleveland and party left L't.ca nearly ten minutes ahead of time; speed averaped fifty miles an hour, and several miles were made at the rate of fifty seconds per mile. The greeting of the assembled crowd at Utica was particularly 'cordial, and ihough Governor Cleveland made his appearanca and bawed bia acknowledgments, he made no remarks. He was in excellent health and spirits'and chafed animatedly with his friends as the train sped through the fertile valley of the beautiful Mohawk. The train was due in Syracuse at 4:35, but pulled into the city still ilfte en minutes ahead of time. Immense concourse ware at the depot; mien, women and children jostling each oiher in their attempts to gt a elimpse of the Governor. Hundreds of school boys, books and slates in hand, ran for blocks up the track in the wake of the train. At the Syracuse Iron Works, as the train parsed at low speed throngh the city limits, workmen came out and waved enthusiastic greetings. The depot in the vicinity of the train was packed, as were tne streets leading to it. In answer to repeated calls. Governor Cleveland appeared on the rear platform, and cheers after cheers greeted him. The Governor lifted his hat and bowed hia acknowledgments. The enthusiasm continued unabated while the train remained in the depot, which was just long enough to make a change of locomotives. No. 614, Engineer E W. Marnott, being substituted for or at Syracuse; also, a substitution of conductors was made, Charles Tibbetta takios charge. Among those who boarded the train at Syracuse and shook hands with the Governor, was Hon. Milton H. Northrup, of the Syracue Courier. The follow in sr telegram was handed to the Governor: To Governor Cleveland, on the rpecial frain. Central Depot, fsyracu: Your time to Utica was immense. You are making bigger time towards Washington. Burn tnis." (Signed) Prentiss Biiley. A special train consisting cf twenty-four cars, with the Syracuse Phalanx and Escort, two Uading Democratic campaign organizations, each 100 strong, together with about 4.00 citizens, left Syracuse at 1:30 for Buffalo. Governor Cleveland's special train steamed out of the depot just on time. The Governor was standing on the platform and acknowledged their greetings as long as He remained in sight of the people. Kochest was reached at 6 p. m. At the depot, in spite of the fact that a drizzling rain was falling, several hundred persons were congregated. Governor Cleveland appeared on the rear platform and was cl eared to the echo. It was learned that a few hoara previous a special train of twenty-two cars, carrying numerous representatives of the Democratic campaign organizations and several hundred citizens, had leit .Rochester for Buffalo to participate in the grand demonstration in the Governor's hanor. The weather continued very disagreeable, the rain falling in a determined drizzle. Notwithstanding this, three car-loads of representative citizens of Buffalo boarded the 4:30 train for Batavia to meet the train which was bringing the Governor and his party to Euffalo. The party included Charles A. Sweet, Fred D. Locke, O. G. fcteeie, Jr., John Powers Fillmore, Augustus A. Scheu, George W. Hayweod. Henry T. Altman, J. W. Tillinghaat, Key. John H. Eiebold, Joseph Jackson, Hon, D. F. Day, George W. Dorman, Hon. Jonathan Sco rille, Henry Ware ßprague. Edward II. Butler. Jacob 8cheu, Charles G. Cortis, Dr. . Stork, Hon. Solomon Scheu, Delaran

O. .Richmond, and others. There were also a large number of Independent Republicans, who are usually unknown in politics: business men, bankers, live stock dealers and merchants, representing the business community of Buffalo. There was a feeling of great determination among the representative men that is seldom seen. The reception given to the Governor was warm and cordial, and all vied in their efforts to welcome him on his way home.The Governor was in excellent spirits. The arrival of the train was received with cheers, the different organizations crowding around the car and shouting for Cleveland. As he appeared on the platform, bat in hand, such a cheer as Batavia never heard before went up, the Governor amil ing, and simply contenting himself with bowing his thanks. Men without öistinc tion of party crowded to the platform to shake bis hand. The train stopped but for a few minutes. The special train which had brought tbe Buffalo delegation was attached, and the train sped on its way. En route the Governer went through the train, chatting pleasantly with hia friends and neighbors and receiving their many congratulations. Governor Cleveland's train arrived in East Buffalo at 8:15 p. m., five minutes ahead of time. The first loud-voiced welcome was continuous, and the combined shrieks of the locomotives and whistles created a din teat was heard for miles aronnd. The train steamed slowly into the depot, which was reached at The drizzling rain, which set in early in the morning and continued with but brief intermissions throughout the whole day. was still falling, but it seemed to have no terrors for the multitude, who thronged the streets leading to the depot, and the depot itself until "they were absolutely impassable. Tumultous cheering greeted the Governor's car as it came to a stop in the depot yard, and the din was kept up without intermission, and everywhere necks were craned to catch a glimpe of the distinguished citizen who had been elevated to the Governorship of the great State, and was nominated for the highest office in the gift of the American people. The Governor's appearance on the platform of the car was the signal for renewed cheering. The Governor and his party walked to the Exchange street entrance to the depot, where stood a handsomely decorated coach, to which were attached eight white horses, driven by a liveried coachman, Washington Whiting. The Governor, accompanied by the Mayor, Jonathan Scoville, Daniel N. Lockwood, who nominated Mr. Cleveland at the Chicago Convention, and WinGeld Bobbins, of Buffalo, stepped into the vehicle, which at ence joined tbe grand procession at Michigan street. His progress was one co5Tisrors ovation !crg the principal streets, which were jammed, sidewalk and street, by a cosmopolitan crowd of men and women, who stood, many of them, without protection from the falling rain, waiting patiently for the procession to pass. There was but little jostling and no disturbance, both Democrats, Republicans and men of every shade of political belief vied with each other in honoring their distinguished fellow citizen. The Republicans cheered as loudly as the Democrats, seeming to forget their political differences in the grand enthusiasm of the hour. The streets throughout the line of march, notwithstanding the rain continued to fall in a determined drizzle, and the air was as chilly and unco 'ortable as in a bleak November night, Ttere paeked with people. Stores and houses were illuminated as never before in Buffalo. Chinese lanterns in profuse abundance hung from windows of roofs, while immense garlands of the same were swung'across the streets, intertwining in elaborate net work. On Main street the sight was truly an inspiriting one. The many Cleveland and Hendricks banners were fantastically hung with lanterns and transparencies, while red and other bright colored lights gave to the hazy atmosphere a bright and glowing light. Roman candles were profusely burned; rockets lit up the scene, and the people cheered themselves hoarse. At the Genese Houe, in bold letters, a huge transparency was inscribed: "Our citizen, Governor and President, Buffalo greets thee." The sight was a very grand one; from Exchange street to High street, a distance of over three miles, the streets were decorated with lanterns. The German Insurance Building, the stores of Barnes, BanCroft & Ca, Flint & Kent, the Third Nationa' Bank, the White buildings, the American block, S. Cettinger & Co., the Genese House and others were one mass of elaborate decorations. Down Genese street for nearly a mile. West Genese to the Niagara Square, a mile in length, Batavia street for over a mile, and many intermediate streets leading from Maine, Genese, Niagara and Batavia were one blaze of light. Some little delay was caused in movine, and at 0:30, in the face of the rain, the procession begain its march. Tolly 10,003 meu, irrespective of bands of music, took pare The appearance of Governor Cleveland, with an honorary guard composed of sixteen members of the Cleveland Phalanx, was the signal for cheers loud and long, the Governor standing with feared head, bowing hiä acknowledgment of the hearty and spontaneous reception accorded him. When he arrived at the Genese House, hia carriage halted for a moment, and then proceeded in a line of march, as follows: Lp Main to Goodell street, to Hickory, to Broadway, to Bank, to Genese House, a distance of four miles. The procession was ful'j- eight miles long. Among the many transparencies were the following: 'Public .office is a public trust." "We owe much to the German element among the people." Let us look at the Books." "This is the Reverend Doctor" (with a representation in brackets of a large black ball ). "A Change Demanded tor Honest Labor." "We Are Bound to Conquer." "No Maine Law for Us." "We Don't Have to Cast an Anchor to Windward." "Protect American Labor by Voting for Cleveland." "Destiny on the side of right" "Republicans promise high tariff and low bread." "Kepoblican results no work, no bread." "Three hundred thousand workmen unemployed." "Burn these letters " Blatne to Fisher.'' "He has earned hia honors and wears them well." "The issue, honesty versus dishonesty." "More economy, less taxation." "Honest government against. Mulliganized statesmanship." "The best Governor will make the btt President." "Ten thousand Germans demand a change." "The Star-route ring must be broken." ''The Germans are solid for Cleveland." It was ten minutes past 11 when the Governor's carriage arrived again opposite tbe Genese House, and still the columns passed without any apparent indication that the end was near. The Governor and party alighted and entered the hotel, and it waa nearly three-quarters of an hour before the last organization passed. The column waa two hours and ten minutes in passing the Genese House, and it la

estimated there were fully 15,000 in line. In the square opposite the Genese House many thousands had congregated, and the appearance of the Governor on the platform was the signal for wild and tumultuous cheering that fairly made the buiIdiDrs tremble. The Governor stood with uncovered head, while Hon. Henry Martin, seventy-six years of age, president Of the Manufacturers' and Traders' Bank, and the oldest banker in the city, as well as the oldest eirailread conductor in the country, welcomed him to the city. Mr. Martin said: Governor Cleveland, in ehalf of this thronging multitude ol your old friends aud neighbors I welcome you heme to nicht. You came to our city a toy, you learned your profession here and ct more ihiu twenty years hare gone in and out before ot, respected, trusted and honored by all. In the course of time the public weai demanded you. and regardless of party affiliations we elected you Ma vor. 'the sinKlene of purpose, the ruxKed Honesty, the faithful discharge of duty, the unpretentious yet ever watchful care of the public inteietts which marked your administration of our civic kCaiii, led the people of this proud State, ny an overwhelming and unexampled majority to select you as their Chief Magistrate. You catered upon this great oftice; while you have neld it you h.ve Had tbe public eye turned firmly, at timet, on you as a probable candidate for the Presidency aud at a period when reform was demanded. You have steadily pursued your way, deciding every question which has arisen out of tbe manifold affairs or needs of this great Commonwealth, or which has Leen urced to the front by cunning opponents, with that tame integrity of purpose and the thoughtful care which narked your career here. At home, again and again has tbe fidelity to duty produced Us result, and we welcome you to-n lht aa the Presidential candidate of a great party and of thousand upou thousands who recognize tbe demands of the public service u superior to party ties, and we, your old friends and neighbors, air. bearing toward you the full measure of high personal esteem, rejoice to know that in this Itter campaign, not one reputable man has yet been able to point out one solitary official act of your administration and pronounce it subject to just criticism. That not one reputable man has been heard to say that iu any o:.e single ofiicial act you have raids tbe Interests of party or of self superior to the public good, or for one Instant forgotten that your oiiice was a sacred and solemn trust, to be administered for the best interest of tbe whole people. We believe, sir, that the calm good of tbe nation Is with you to-night, that the rectitude and earnestness of purpose, and fidelity to duly, and firmness in the discharge of duty, are at tbis day and time re cognized as essential in tbe Chief Executive of the Republic, and that surely and resistlesaly the result of public sentiment is doing its powerful work which ibilliend In your triumphal election. We congratulate you, sir, from our hearts upou the success which .hns marked your past career, and upon tbe assurance of coming victory, and welcome you to the city where its chief ptlde to -nigbt is In the fact that it Is the home of Governor Cleveland. Governor Cleveland stepped to the front of the platform, when there was another outburst that lasted fully five minutes, and it was only with the greatest difficulty that the throDg could be quieted, then Governor Cleveland.in a clear, strong voice that could be distinctly heard, epoke as follows: "Fellow citizens. I can hardly tell the people of Euflalo bow I rejoice to-night, and how grateful I am for this demonstration of the confidence and esteem of my friends and fellow citizens. I have resided among you and in this city, where all my success in private life has been achieved, for nearly thirty years. To night, 1 come to you after the longest absence tbat has occurred in all that time: and yet. within the few weeks tbat hare passed since 1 kw you last, an event has happened of supreme importance to me, and that places me within the nation's gaze. The honor it has brought to me 1 asa my fellow townsmen to stiare, while I acknowledge with grzieful heart all that they in tbe past have done for me. Applause.) But two short years ago you itocd steadily ty my side in every effort of mine as tbe Chief Executive of our city to advance Us, interests and welfare, whatever I was able to accomplish of value to tbis community was largely due toyourstrong and Intelligent support; nor can I ever forget tbe generous indorsement you gave my candidacy for the high oiiice which I hold in tbe State, and 1 assure you that in its administration I have received no greater encouragement than the approval of my friends at home. What I have teen and neard to-night has touched me deeply. It tells tnat my neghbors are still my friends and assures me tbat I have not been altogether unsuccessful In my efforts to deserve their cofidence and attachment. In years to come I shall deem myself cot far wrong it I still retaia their good opinion, and, if surrounding cares and perplexities bring but aaiiety and vexation, I shall find solace and comfort in the memory of the days fpent here, aud in recalling the kindness of my butlalo friends. But other friends are here to-night, and to all who tender me their kindly welcome I extend a heartfelt greeting as citizen, with me of the greatest commonwealth in the sisterhood of the States, and one Immensely interested in the general weal. Because I love my State and hor people. I cannot refrain from reminding ybu tbat she should be In the van of every movement that promises a safer aud bettar administration of tre general Government: so closely related to her prosperity and greataes. Applause 1 And let me leave you with the thought tbat your safety lies In impressing upon tbe endeavors oi those entrusted with the guardianship of your rights and interests a pure, patriotic and exacting popular sentiment, the character of the Government can hardly rise higher than the source from which it springs, and the integrity and faithfulness of public servants is not apt to be greater than the people demand. I great cheering. J The Governor having finished bis address the grand procession passed in review before him and his guests, to Niagara Square, where they dispersed. As column after column passed cheers loud and long were given. After the procession had passed an informal reception was tendered tbe Governor. Many ladies and representative men of the city tendering their congratulations. A visit to the apartments assigned to Governor Cleveland at the Genesee House, facing the street and balcony where he addressed the people, showed that his temporal comforts had hot been forgotten; the elegant apartments and been tastefully arranged. There wasa profusion of llowers; "between the large windows facing the street was a large horseshoe, depending from ti.e wall, and gas rixtnres, tmiiax and choice rosebuds lent their beauty and fragrance. Bich bouquet? were scattered about and upon the mantles of the suite of rooms beautiful buds and choice cut flowers were liberally arrayed; the fireplaces were banked with potted plants and cut flowers. The Governor will pass a quiet ddy to-morrow, among his friends and acquaintances. He leaves to-morrow night at 11:30, arriving in Albany at 8:40 on Saturday. It was long aftsr midnight when tbe BufTaloina retired.

HENDRICKS AT LOUISVILLE. Be Is Met at the Depot by a Large Delegation In Spite of the Pouring Bain He Is Welcomed by 20,000 People at the Exposition. Louisville, Sept 30. Though it has been raining all day, extensive preparations were made for the reception cf Hon. Thcs. A. Hendricks, who comes as the guest of the Southern Exposition. The city is full of visitors from neighboring States, and ia handsomely decorated for the occasion. Mr. Hendricks arrived in the afternoon from Indianapolis, and was met by the Exposition committee, consisting of Mayor Chas. C. Jacobs, Mr. P. Booker Reed, Hon. E. F. Madden and Dr. J. B. Wathen, Colonel Bennett H. Young, Colonel Robert M. Kelly and Messrs. Bloom, Robinson, Crippenstable and Bontrager. A large crowd was gathered at the depot and beard Mr. Bloom's address of welcome. Mr. Hendricks only replied by thanking them for their kind reception, and was driven to the Lou'aville Hotel, followed by a large concourse of enthusiastic people. In tbe afternoon a reception was held at the hotel where Mr. Hendricks met bia many friends and admirers in this J täte, Mr. Hendricks waa accompanied by

Mr. Shovean, of Indianapolis. He is looking remarkably well and fresh. In the evening Governor Hendricks was escorted to the Exposition building, where, in spite of the fact that it was raining in torrents, he was enthusiastically received by 20,000 people.who gave him a Kentucky welcome. As he entered the building Gilmore's bsnd played "Hail to the Chief," changi ng later to familiar National airs. The diatinguised visitor was happily introd uced by Colonel Bennett H. Young, President of the Exposition. Mr. Hendricks then made a timely and appropriate address for tbe occasion. He was simply a visitor and guest at the exposition and politics were not mentioned in his short speech. He safd he was happy to meet in the exposition citizens not only of Kentucky, but of Indiaua and other States, and he regarded it as an interesting circumstance that the citizens of these States could meet and enjoy such a great exposition. He spoke of the richness of the Kentucky sail and of the blue-grass country and the production of such fine stock. He referred to the relation cf Indiana and Kentucky, savin? that only a river divided thern. Mr. Hendricks dwelt on. expositions as educators, and compared many of the implements of former days to the improved ones of to day. The speaker then complimented in the highest terms the magnificent display of tbe exposition. Mr. Hendricks was most happy in his manner, and was continually interrupted by applause. At the conclusion of his speech he was shown through tbe building, and held an informal reception in the main aisle, where he had to shake hands with everyone in the building. He left the building amid tremendous cheering and returned to his hotel. He will remain in the city until Wednesday, and visit the exposition again. Mr. Hendricks will address a political meeting at New Albany, Ind., Wednesday night. SIX MILES OF DEMOCRATS.

Great Demonstration at. Toledo to See ltlaine and Show Him Some Western Democrats. Fort Wayse, ( Sept. CO. An excursion train of fifteen cars left here at 3 p. m. yesterday on the Wabash Railroad for Toledo. Of these, six coaches were filled with Democrats and two coaches with Republicans from this place, and before reaching Toledo the train was Mlled to overflowing, all going to augment the forces of their respective parties at the grand turnout in that city. On arriving at Toledo after dark tbe Democrats at once formed and joined in an immense procession, estimated to have been from four to six miles long, and marched continuously until 10 o clock. Tbe Republican procession made a similar demonstration, but not larger in numbers and not so imposing as the Democratic cav alcade. There were 500 mounted Democrats, and the sidewalks and streets along Ithe line ot march were thronged with people and vehicles containing spectators. The crowd was of enormous proportions, all Northweetern Ohio and Northeastern Indiana having turned out on this occasion. As the JefTersoniaa Club of Fort "Wayne (than which there was no finer appearing body of men in the ci ty yesterday) passed by tbe corner where Blaine was, a hearty and almost deafen ng three cheera were given for Clevelany and HendricEs, which were not encouraging to the Plumed Knight The Republican procession was passing the same place at the same time, but we saw no great enthusiasm evinced in their ranks for their tattooed candidate, whose presence on this occasion did not enthuse his adherents to any remaarkable degree. About 10 o'clock the processions disbanded, and at 11 and 12 o'clock the excursion trains left Toledo, freighted with the humanity who had helped make "a big day" in that city. Our train, containing the Fort Wayne excursionists, also had many delegations ' of Republicans, mostly boys and quit young men, from way points between Toledo and Fort Wayne, and these young Republicans were the only drunken, rowdy set of fellows we saw anything of on this occasion. It is an indisputable and undeniable fact that there was not one drunken nor boisterous Democrat aboard our train and fully half the number on the cars were Democrats. "Weary from the long tramp, travel-worn and hungry (for we'did not stop marching for supper), all were glad to reach their homes this mornirg, bnt glad also to have been at the monster gathering. Chameees. OKAY AT r KAN KLIN. He Makes a Logical and Cenvincing Speech Be is Well Seconded by Jason Drown. Special to the Sentinel. FaArxLis, Ind., Oct 1. Governor Isaac P. Gray aud Senator Jason 3. Brown spoke to not less than 5,000 persons in the Courthouse yard to-day. Governor Gray was in the best of trim, and many were the happy bits made by him against the men one who swears that he was married twice to the same woman, and the other who stands convicted of having removed the Widow Dancan from a one-horse Postoffice because she refused to contribute to the Dorsey soap fund. Governor Gray spoke from tbe same platform that Candidate Calkins did when here, two weeks since. It is no exaggeration to say that the audience addressed by Gray wäs ten times as large as that which listened to Calkins ; and then the speeches there is no comparison! Gray is as high above Calkins in logic and oratory as Jupiter is gbove a duck puddle. If the Republicans want to save Calkins from total anihilation and humiliation they should have him get sick before the time to meet Gray in joint discussion. There was never a sicker set of men than the Kepubli cans of Franklin this evening. From the moment they saw Gray they knew that Calkins could not cope with him in the coming joint discussion. This, added to the utter failure of the Calkins meetinz, together with tbe local bickerings and jealousies among the local bosses, leaves them without hope. The speech ot Senator Brown was of the highest order. He spoke for one hour after the conclusion of Governor Gray, and held the vast audience spell bound by bis logic and eloquence.

MR. DUDLEY ! Hear What A. r. Cunningham Sajs of Your Openlj'Expmsed Contempt for His Race.

"I Have No Use for the Irisri ! I Hope Not !" The Character of the Witness Ia Impregnable to Your Assault. If Von Shonld Adopt tb Miserabi Alternative of Stultifying Yourself, It Is Still lluttressed by the Recommendation of Distinguished Members of the United States Senate. Special ELspatch to the Enquirer. here's the fkoof. WAsmsGTON', D. C, Oct 1. On the 27th of September I sent a dispatch to the Enquirer, which waa printed on the 2Sth. char pint; that Commissioner of Pensions W. W. Dudley had used these words: "I have no use for the Irish. I hope not, I hope not!" In making this charge I said that if it should be desired, I would supplement it with an affidavit. Since I have read in two Cincinnati papers a denial alleged to have been made on the authority of Commissioner Dudley in dispatches from Col ambus. Further, in a Cincinnati dispatch to a Philadelphia newspaper printed to-day I tee an announcement that Commissioner. Dudley wrote a letter which was read in the National C onvention of Irish-Americans, held at Cincinnati yesterday, in hich he denied the us a of the words attributed to him. The best way to fortify the original statement is to sup piement the promised affidavit Hers it is: City of Washington, District of Columbia, ss.: Personally appeared before me this day, a Notary Public in and for the City of Washington, District cf Columbia, A. P. Cunningham, known to me as such, who, upon being duly sworn, deposes and says. That he is now employed as a clerk in the Pension Bureau of tbe Interior Department, and was so employed on the 17th day of March last, A. D. 184, under the direction of W. W. Dudley, the Commissioner of Pensions; on the -17th day of March last aforesaid the deponent aforesaid, A. P. Cunningham, called upon W. W. Dadley, the Commissioner of Pensions aforesaid, at or stout 0:30 o'clock a, m.; there was a gentleman at the time engaged in convereation with him; after this was finished deponent walked ever to Dudley's desk and said, Good morning, Mr. Commissioner." He nodded his head, when the following conversation took place: "Mr. Commissioner, this ia the 17th day of March, and the Irish brigade did their duty." He looked np at me and said: "I have no use for the Irish. I hope not, I hope not" Deponent then left, and met the Assistant Secretary ot the Interior near the Department He told deponent to go ahead and take the day's leave. Shortly thereafter a general order was issued from the Interior Department giving all Irishmen a day's leave of absence. Deponent farther swears that he makes this declaration of his own free will in the interest of his race and countrymen, without influence or solicitation from any quarter whatsoever. Deponent further says the said W. W. Dudley aforesaid did not refuse him a leave of absence, bat deponent did not wait any longer when Dudley told him he had no use for the Irish. A. P. CcxjfsGnAM. Sworn to and subscribed to before me this 1st day of October, JSS4. N. Calla v. Notary Pabllc. The question now arises, who is A. P. Cunningham? Colonel Dudley, thus put in a hole, may endeavor to break the force of the accusation by attempting to assail his character. Mr. Cunningham is an active Republican. He was appointed to his place in the Pension Office which he now holds upon recommendations which include prominent public men in all sections of the country. Here is an indorsement by one well known: "Unitid States Senate. Washington. "To Gexekal Fbaxcis A. Walker, Superintendent of Census Sir: I respectfully request that Mr. A. P. Cunningham may be continued in employment in the Census Bureau. Very respectfully yours. "John A. Logan, "United States Senate." Mr. Cunningham was also recommended by the late Mr. D. P. llolloway, of Indiana, upon whose letter there is this indorsement: lam not personally acquainted with Mr. Cunningham, but can cheerfully and do gladly indorse what Hon. D. P. Halloway says concerning him. I am one of those who like to see the workers for the Republican party rewarded when worthy, and I hope Mr. Cunningham may receive the place he asks. Very respectfully, W. W. Dudley, Commissioner of Pensions. Here are leiters whose signatures will not fail to attract attention: United States Senats Chamfer, Washimgton, D. C, January 28, 1SS2, J Honorable Secretary of the Navy, Washington, D. C. : Dear Sir We would most respectfully request the appointment of A. P. Cunningham as foreman of laborers in the construction department of the Washington Navy Yard. Yery respectfully, Alvix Sacxdem. I am sure Mr. Saunders would not recomarnend Mr. Cunningham unless he was tit and worthy. I therefore unite in his request. B. Harrison, PHiLETrs Sawyer, David Davis. I know Mr. Cunningham. He is a good man. Jons A. Logan. Executive Department, Indianat-olis, Ind., October 11, IkSl. To A. P. Cunningham, Esq., 121 B street, N. E.: Dear Sir Your letter of the 4th inst has been received. Inclosed is a letter of introduction to Senator Harrison. Yours very truly. A. G. Porter. Executive Department, ) IxiiAXAroLis, Ind., Oct. 13, 1SS3. J General Benjamin Harrison, United States Senate: Dear Sir This line will introduce to you Mr. A. P. Canningharu, a zealous Republican, whose acquaintance I made when he was in Washington; and any kindneasshown to him by you I will greatly appreciate. Yours very truly, A. G. Porter. These indorsements are sufficient to vouch for the character of the deponent aforesaid. Mr. Cunningham, in making this declaration, does it because be knows Colonel W. W. Dudley to be a foe to the Irish race. He says he has respect for an open enemy, but utter contempt for a concealed foe. For this reason he desires Colonel Dudley to be thus smoked out, and yet the Republican leaders have sent Colonel Dudley into the State of Ohio to manage the campaign, upon assurances given by him that he could deliver the Irish vote.
