Washington, Sept. 2,18115. Perhaps those who pooh-pooh the idea that Mr. Cleveland is seriously working for a renoiniuation fora third term for himself are right, hut so far as indications can tie trusted they are wrong. The following summary of the situation is made by a democratic ExCongressman—Conn, of Indiana: “The administration was never before so much in politics. Democratic dissension in Kentucky, Maryland and Ohio has aroused the turgid partisanship of President Cleveland and instead of breaking out in choleric platitudes he is using the machinery of the administration to bring sweet peace to warring democratic factions, in the interests of his third term. Gorman, with his sugartrust record; Brice, the champion of senatorial corporate rings, and Blackburn. tlie free silver idol, have sutldenly become endowed with angelic qualities ami, because they are supposed to control the party majority in their respective states, they are being held to the President’s heart to I e warmed into <'leveland democratic life. To Secretary Carlisle is entrusted to conversion of Kentucky Bourhonism. His voice will soon he mingled in unison with that of Free Silver Joe iu behalf of party harmony, whether it comes from a 10 to 1 calamity organ or a gold mounted corporation concert grand, just so it is equipped with a Cleveland subbass attachment. Jf the democratic deed of trust which Senator Brice carries in Ids inside pocket can also lie franked with the Cleveland cuckoo crest, Ohio will he as safe for a third term as if counted among the heavenly host. But in Maryland the situation is somewhat different. Senator Gorman’s pull is only a three linger hold, and it is doubtful if even President Cleveland’s magnetic influence will mesmerize enough democrats to elect the ring ticket. To complete the circuit and turn a third term into the next national convention it will also be necessary to capture New York, Indiana and another important state or two. New York has its democratic troubles, for which Senator Hill holds the panacea, and the next effort of President Cleveland will probably he to secure control of the Senator’s medicine box. Indiana is considerably wVought up over the silver (piestion and it vvill he necessary to proselyte Senator Voothees in order to vote that delegation. This was done once before and perhaps the same charm can he worked again. In any event an extraordinary effort is being made to wheel the democracy into line for Cleveland, a third term and a continuation of the national fishing club at Buzzard’s Bay.” The publication of Secretary Lamont’s very generous offer to advance $50,000 from his own pocket to be used in paying soldier’s salaries, Congress having failed to appropriate enough for that purpose, while it could not he legally accepted, served to draw attention to the difference between Dan Lament’s financial circumstances when lie made his debut in Washington as Mr. Cleveland's Private Secretary and at this time. Then he was so poor that Mr. Cleveland paid him $1,000 a year in addition to the salary of Private Secretary, in order that he might he able to keep up with his family a lespectable social appearance. Now lie talks of advaeing $50,000 as nonchalantly as he would then have asked a friend to take a beer with him. Dan isn’t the only one of tne crowd who has got rich. Mr. Cleveland has become a multi-millionaire and a number of others, then poor, are now wealthy. Nobody seems able to sav just how or when the idea began to take root but it is certainly very prevalent among republicans in Washington, that General Harrison will in the near future let it be thorougly understood that he does not desire his name to go before the National Convention as a candidate for the presidential nomination. It has come to my knowledge the democratic managers in Kentucky and Maryland in ttieir desperation are preparing to revive the dodge they have worked so successfully in all the southern states for many years—to arouse race prejudice. Hon. Lloyd Lowndes, the republican candidate for Governor of Maryland was a guest at its last meeting of the Union Republican Club of this city. He made a speech that made an excellent impression upon those who heard it. No bluster or brag, just a quiet, gentlemanly expression of confidence in his election. He said if the election were to be heid this week the state would, he believed, go republican by more than 15.000 majority.

THE E. E- GRAY TRIAL. A Highly MPttftatlomtl Cjim' »h the \ 1*011 Trial in 4 irruit 4'ourt. One of the most sensational and most bitter'y contested criminal cases in the Putnam circuit court is the one now on in which F E Gray, of Portland Mills, is being tried for the serious efiarge of arson. The ease was opened immediately after dinner Monday and in the selection of a jury the fur began to tty at once. Over two hours were consumed finding twelve men who had no opinion on the case, and the peremptory challenges flew around rather lively, a total of seventeen being used. The jury is us follows: J. W. Risler, J. <’. Herod, John Detrick, jr., Isaac S. Peck. B. F. Dean, A. F. Flint, Win. J. King, James Paxton, Welker McElrov, Benjamin Jones, George Larkin, Wm. Seller; Messrs. Risler, Dean, Peek and Larkin being of the regular panel. Messrs. Colliver, Hays, Lewis & Corwin represent the state and Messrs. Case, Watson and James for the defense. The opening statement of the state was made by Mr. Colliver, who said they would endeavor to show that Mr. Gray was the owner of a stock of drugs which he had in a store room in Portland Mills which he insured in March for $600 and which on the night of April 60 was destroyed by fire, which Gray had arranged for before leaving his store by lighting a candle anti placing it in the back room of the store and letting it ignite with combustibles; that several witnesses would testify to seeing the flickering light in the store after Gray and James Scott had left there and come to Greencastle, where they were on the day of the city election on May 1, and that Gray next morning asked the first man who came from that country if his store had burned, etc., etc. The defense reserved their opening statement until the state’s evidence was over. When the witnesses stood up to be sworn everybody nearly in the house arose and it seemed as if the entire neighborhood was in the muddle, which from the present aspect is a mud die sure enough. There is consid erable hard feeling in the case and every inch is being stubbornly fought. Much impeachment anil character evidence will be introduced this afternoon and tomorrow. It developed in the state’s evidence that Gray had received $4:18.72 from the Indiana Under writers’ Insurance company, that being three-fourths of the actual loss claimed.
