THE PERNICIOUS PARTISANS Tiie President Is Very Angry Indeed, and Is Anxiously Hunting an Offender. Harrowing Rumor that Collector Knbn Will Be Among the First to Soffer—Reception at the White Honse —Capital Notes PERNICIOUS PARTISANS. More Ponapou® Announcements ms to What the President Intends Doing. Washington Special. There is a great deal of ‘‘thundering in the index” on the part of the tbick-and-thin supporters of the administration as to what the President proposes to do in the matter of the violation of the civil-service order of July relating to the non-participation of federal officials in politics. This is a specimen of one of the pfonunciamentoes: “The President’s back is up. He is indignant at the violations of his civil-service order of July, and proposes to make some striking examples which will be a warning to minor officials. I think those who wUI be selected for the sacrifice at first will be Delaney, United States district attorney in Wisconsin, the collector of internal revenue at Indianapolis, and the postmaster at New Orleans.” This is the language of one of the Civil-service Commissioners, who is to be presumed to know what he is talking about. The President himself said within a day or two, to a friend who is actio politics, substantially what this Civil-serv-ice Commissioner has stated, but intimated that he woald not act until he had some positive proof before him. He can't act on more rumor. That is the rub. It is just possible he may choose to wait too long for proof—until after election, lor instance. There is abundant proof already •t band in many striking instances, if the President is anxious to redeem bis promises. And he seed not look far for victims to appense his righteons indignation. In the Indiana case he has already been furnished at different times by the local civil-service association with evidence that shows that the federal officials in Indiana, as Commissioner Edgerton himself states, have been noted for their open and intense hostility to civil-service reform. The report of the latest investigation which has been made, however, by this association has not yet been presented to the President. It is understood to be in the hands of the Central Civil-service Association of Indiana, and it is expected will be soon forwarded to the White Rouse. Meanwhile, those who hold near relations to the President say that he will welcome positive proof from any quarter, and that all local civil-service associations may bo sure that any charges which they may present which are well sustairad against any federal officer will receive consideration. —..JTbe President within a short time was infOrmedTftat Roßerrljbwry. the Democratic candidate for Congress in one of the Indiana districts, the sitting member, has been making a liberal nse of the minor postmasters to aid him in securing his re-election. In the Wisconsin case the facts are open and notorious. The shameless bargain between Bragg and Delaney has become a matter of public notoriety, the letter setting forth the details of the traffic in patronage having been published. As to the New Orleans postoffice, the charges against the postmaster seem to have been simple enough. His friends have been here, have interviewed the President, and left yesterday. One of them said that the President was satisfied that the letter written by the postmaster was intended simply to conciliate the mugwumps, and that he was convinced the postmaster had no intention of actively participating in politics. This statement, however, is entirely ex parte, and must be taken with reservation. It cannot be ascertained that any official complaint as to the active participation in politics of Troup, in Connecticut, has yet been filed at the White House. This is also true of the postmaster at Chicago, whose superintendent of mails is charged with being an offensive partisan of the extremest sort

AT THE WHITE HOUSE. Incidents at the President’s Reception—A Visitor from the Pope’s Household. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, Oct. 8. —Two hundred persons shook hands with the President this afternoon, among the number being an excursion party from the Keystone State—survivors of the One-hundred-and-thirty-niuth Pennsylvania Volunteers, many of them being accompanied by ladies. A little boy wearing a sword was con apicuous in the group that suirounded the President, and the little fellow created quite a flutter hy the reply he made to a remark from the chief magistrate. “Are you a soldier, my little laanl” asked the President. “No, sir; but my father was,” replied the boy proudly. The President had a pleasant word for all his callers, to-day, and was particularly courteous to A young bridal couple, the wife in lavender satin and a becoming bonnet, while tho groom still retained his white necktie, black suit and patentleather pumps. As the young man passed, he whispered to the President, “We are both Benedicts now,” and a warm pressure of the baud was the answer. Among the President’s visitors to-day was Monsignor Mori, a member of the papal household in Rome, who is visiting this country. Monsignor Mori came with the bearer of the zuocaretta and beretta for Cardinal Gibbons, and has been as far west as San Francisco. He arrived in Washington this morning, from Baltimore, and came to the executive mansion to pay liis respects to the President. MR. CHASE’S REMAINS.

That our religious press and the secular press generally are requested to call attention to this subject _ -rVIINOR MATTERS. A Land Decision Involving Property Worth Several Millions of Dollars. Washington, Oct. B.—An important landoffice decision has beet* made by Commissioner Sparks, involving the title to certain valuable lands in the vicinity of New Orleans, covered in part by the town of Carrollton, and upon other parts by buildings and improvements of great value, including the race course, the Metairie Cemetery and the shell road and railroad from New Orleans to Lake Ponchartrain. This property has been claimed and possessed, since the middle of the last century, under a French grant which has been surveyed and segregated from the public domain. The adverse claimants asserted title by virtue of certain swamp and other selections under grants to the State of Louisiana. Commissioner Sparks holds that the French grant is a complete title, protected by the treaty of 1803, and not needing legislative or other confirmation by the United States, and the lands being private property at date of the State grants, did not pass under these grants. The amount involved in this decision reaches several million dollars. Secretary Whitney Will Not Interfere. Washington, Oct B.—An afternoon paper says: “A telegram was received at the Navy Department from Secretary Whitney, in response to the appeals of the Knights of Labor and other organizations, and from individuals, asking his interference to secure the reinstatement of discharged employes of the Washington navy-yard. He authorizes, the reply to all such appeals that he will not himself interfere, and will not permit other officials of the Navy Department to interfere or exercise any influence in this matter. The responsibility for the removals, retentions and appointments at the navy-yard must be left entirely to the officers of the yard, who are directly responsible for the work. The foremen of the bureaus which are concerned must not be interfered with inftheir action in this matter, and will be held accountable for removals and appointments.” An Oleomargarine Question. Washington, Oct. B.—The acting Secretary of the Treasury has asked the Attorney-general for an opinion as to whether the oleomargarine law imposes a tax on the different ingredients used in the manufacture of olemargarine, and also a tax on the article when finished and placed on the market, or whether the law contemplates a tax only upon the finished article. The question has been raised by the opponents of the measure, ar.d its determinat'on will make a considerable difference, one way or the other, to persons dealing in olemargarine. Commissioner Miller has received proofs of the new oleomargarine stamps, and said to-day that the stamps will be ready for shipment to the collectors about the 15th inst. General and Personal. Washington, Oct B.—John M. Corse has been appointed postmaster at Boston, Mass.

CATTLE AND HOGS. A Summary of the Prospect as Shown by Re- <. ports from Six Handled Points. Chicago. Oct. B.—Mallory & Son, a live-stock commission firm of the Union stockyards, furnisfc the following reports on the present outlook for the crop of cattle and hogs for the season of 188(f87. This report is the summary of over six hundred reports received by them from Illinois, lowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio and Michigan. The information comes from active live-stock shippers who are continually riding through the country and who have opportunities to judge accurately. The reports are based on the crops of 1885 6, and 100 per cent represents a full average crop so compared. Cattle reports include only Illinois, lowa and Missouri, as not enough cattle are fed in the other States mentioned to be of material benefit. Illinois —One hundred and twenty-five points in all parts of the Stale were heard from. Out of this number, sixty one places report a full crop of cattle, or more than a full crop compared with 1885-6; while sixty-four points fell short of a full crop, and some other points report 50 per cent, and less of a full crop. Thirtv-ono places report a full crop of hoes, or more; while ninety-four places report less than a full crop, and forty-three places report 50 per cent, and less. Seventy-one places report hogs as healthy, no diseases at all, and fifty four places hogs dying with cholera, at many places the percentage of deaths being very large. The quality of hogs is not as eood as the crop of 1885-6. lowa—One hundred and forty-one places were heard from, embracing every county in the State. Thirty-nine report an average crop of cattle with 1885-6 or above; ten places less than a full crop, and some places 50 percent, and less. Two points report double the number being fed, but those points are where large lots are being fed that have heretofore gone to market as feeders. Fifty places report a full crop or over of hogs, and of ydaces below a full crop no reports are below 50 per cent. Ninety-six points report hogs as healthy, and forty-five points as dving with cholera. Quality not as good as 1885-6. Missouri —Forty-six places were heard from in northern Missouri, five of which report as many cattle as in 1885-6. At no point is there any more reported than last year. Forty-one places report less than last year, and twenty-nine points less than the year previous. Seven places report as many hogs as in 1885-6; thirty-nine places a shortage from last year, and others 50 percent, and less. At thirty-four points hogs are reported healthy, and twelve places as dying with cholera. Quality not as good as 1885-6. Northwestern Ohio, southern Michigan and Northern Indiana—Of seventy-five places heard from, a large per cent, report above an average crop of both hogs aud corn, with last year; fortytwo places report healthy hoes, and thirty-three say hogs are dying with cholera, which is very bad in some sections. The quality of hogs is fully as good as last year, and the quality of corn better. Wisconsin—Of forty-six points beard from, fifteen report a full crop of hogs and thirty-one less than a full crop, aod no disease at all in the State. Quality about the same. A Treasurer 820,000 Short. Pittsfield, Mass., Oct. B.—Considerable excitement was occasioned here to night by a report that ex-Town Treasurer Joseph Carter bad been arrested for embezzlement of the town funds. The amount of the deficiency is said to be SBO,OOO. The selectmen were in session all day to-day, and the arrest took the form of a summon# by Sheriff Nash demanding Carter’s presence before Judge Tucker this evening. The hearing was private. Carter is seventy years cld, a carpet dealer, and has always been regarded aa a most estimable man. Ho was town treasurer for tweuty years. He was an easygoing, kind-hearted man, and bis methods of book keeping were very careless. He declined to serve when re-elected, in 1883, because the selectmen had discovered that he was $3,000 short Carter has transferred all hia property within the last two months. Strains and external injuries are the chief eaases of weak ankles and joints. By the free uae of Salvatioa Oil a oure will be effected in a short time.

ARGUMENTS OF ANARCHISTS The Condemned Men Occupy the Entire Day in Long and Wordy Protests. An Unexpectedly Temperate Address by Fislden—Parsons Sayg the Execution of the Anarchists Will Be Judicial Murder. Chicago, Oct B. —The crowds which besieged the Criminal Court room, this morning, for admittance to Judge Gary’s court were larger and earlier than at any time during the Anarchists’ trial, the speeches which the condemned men are making in their own behalf, and the fact that the date for their execution is to be given today, being responsible for this. Only a small portion of those who sought admission were successful, the entrances being carefully guarded by deputies and police officers, and the Judge permitting no one in the room who could not be accommodated with a seat Many women, fashionably dressed, were among the lookers-on. Several of the lady admirers of August Spies were present Os the friends of relatives of the prisoners in court were Mrs. Parsons and her two children, Mrs. Neebe and her little boy, Miss Spies and Mrs. Captain Black. Captain Schaak and a large number of police in full, uniform, and detectives in civilian dress, were in and about the court-room. Judge Gary’s wife and daughter, and a number of special lady friends were given seats inside the rail, among attorneys aud reporters. When court was opened Goorge Engel, one of the defendants, at once began a 6peecn in answer to the Judge’s inquiry as to why sentence should not be passed upon him. Engel recounted his experiences in Germany, where he was born, and recounted hardships and tyrannies the people were forced to submit to there. He came to this country, sought work in Philadelphia and Chicago, and found the same state of affairs existing. The capitalists became ricn by oppressions of the working classes. Engle then made a study of the question; he read Henry George’s books and became a Socialist. Engel concluded with a tirade against the capitalists. It was II o’clock when he ceased speaking. Three minutes were spent by counsel and spectators in whispered discussions, and then Sam Fielden rose and prefaced what he had to say by reciting a poem from the German of Ferdinand Freiligath, entitled “Revolution.” The first stanza was as follows: Anti tlio’ ye caught your noble prey Within your hangman’s sordid thrall, And tho’ your captive was led forth Beneath your city’s rampart wall. And tho’ the grass lies o’er her green, Where, at the morning’s early red, The peasant girl brings funeral wreaths. I tell you still —she is not dead. Fiolden’s speech, however, was quit© commonplace. He related his connection with the Anarchists, the same as related on the witnessstand. He said he had not intended to go to the Haymarket meetine, but went there owing to seeing a little advertisement, and Dy seeing the advertisement he had come to his death. He declared that the newspapers had either misunderstood or misrepresented him, and were the .cause of his going to the scaffold. He had uot advised the sacking of the stores. He was severe on the jury, and said some of them were dependent on capitalists. Before Fielden concluded, the court adjourned to 2 P. M.

Fielden’s speech was a much more temperate harangue than any of the othpre that nrfrteded it, and impressed the audience favonfoly. It was the general comment that had Fielden spoken this speech before the jury, instead of letting the lawyers talk for him, it might have influenced their verdict in his favor. It was 3:30 o’clock when Fielden finished speaking. Parsons, armed with a huge bundle of manuscript, rose and said that as it would be impossible for him to conclude, he wanted the court to adjourn until to-morrow morning. Judge Gary concluded, however, that Parsons might go on. This trial, he said, had been immersed in passion, and even now. standing in the shaoow of the gallows, with the hangman waiting with his noose, the capitalistic press was clamoring after his blood and the blood of his comrades. He had espoused the interest of the wag© worker, and he stood her© as one of the people —a workine man. He believed that representatives of that, organization of millionaires, the Citizens’ Association, had demanded of his Honor that he aud his fellow defendants should be put out of the way bv an ignominious death. But where was the justice of this railroading of human beings to the gallows with the speed of an express train? Condemnation did not mean that the condemned were always guilty, and historv showed we might also have unjust judeea—Lord Jeffries and their like. Parsons hdd that the execution of the sentence to be imposed on him was nothing but judicial murder. It was a trial by a mob. His Honor must know this, he said, and it was for him to look at the matter from the stand point of reason and common sense. Parsons spoke until 4:30, when the court adjourned, at his request. Sympathy for the Condemned. Milwaukee, Oct. 8. —At a largely attended meetiug, to-night, Robert Schilling, State organizer of the Knights of Labor, denounced the proposed execution of the Chicago Anarchists as an outrage as infamous as the hanging of John Brown. He said he did not believe in Anarchism, but sympathized with Socialists. Tho sentiment met with uproarious applause from those present, many of whom were Knights of Labor. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES. On Thursday night, at Eau Claire, Mich., Michael Hadley and Douglass Taylor had a quarrel, resulting in Hadley kiliing Taylor with a carpenter’s awl. The murderer escaped. Natural gas was struck at Fairmont, W. Va., yesterday. It is said by experienced gas tnen to be the largest we.l in the country. The noise from rush of the gas can bo heard from six to ten miles. Daniel Driscoll, who was convicted of the murder of his mistress, Beezy Garrity, in a Hesterstreet, New York, brothel, on June 26, last, was yesterday sentenced to be hanged on the 3d of next December. He took his sentence very coolly. Ex-Sheriff Chase, of Concordia Parish. Louisiana, has disappeared, pending an investigation of his emcezzlement case. His friends sav he is in Canada. His official bondsmen prevented his arrest some time ago, as they thought be would remaiu and atone for his crime. Miss Kate Taylor, aged twenty-four, was blown to pieces by an explosion of fulminate of mercury, at the Winchester arms factory, New Haven, Conn., yesterday afternoon. The young lady was an inspector of explosives. The exact cause of the explosion is not known. Christian Anderson, a Swede, thirty-nine years of age. living with Conrad Nelson, aged forty, at 378 We6t Erie street, Chicago, was caueht by the latter in a room with Mrs. Nelson at 1:30 o'clock yesterday morning and shot in the stomach. He was taken to the county hospital, where he died. Nelson was arrested and locked up. American Public-Health Association. Toronto. Ont., Oct. B.—-The American Publichealth Association concluded its business this forenoon. A resolution was adopted that it is tb© opinion of the association that an examination as to protection by vaccination of ail passengers arriving from Europe, including cabin possengers, be exacted at all ports and in all cases, even if no cases of smallpox have occurred on the voyage. A resolution was also adopted that all rags regarded as auspicious and capable of having infection be disinfected before being allowed to enter the country, and thft in the

present state of knowledge as to the possibility of thorough disinfection it might be sufficient to disinfect the exterior of the bales at the qnarantine stations and to complete the disinfection at the manufactories. After Dr. Steinberg, of Baltimore, had been elected president of the association, the meetine adjourned sine die, to meet next year in Memphis, Tenn. OUTDOOR SPORTS. Vxacues Played Yesterday by League and American Association Ball Clubs. Washington, Oct. B.—After the Kansas City club bad scored three runs in the eighth inning to-day, the umpire called the game on account of darkness, and the score reverted to even innings, which was a tie —each side having made two runs.

He gave four bases on balls, and when He did get the ball over the plate it was hit hard by the Wolverines. His three wild pitches also helped the runners around the bases. Baldwin pitched a 6teady game, and held the Philadelphians down to four scattered hits. The field work of both teams was excellent. The clubs will play two games to-morrow.

Radbourne puzzled the visitors, while McCormick was batted freely, ever* Boston player but Wise making at least one hit Boston's battery made but one error, and only two are charged to the Chicairos.

Macullar’s work at short and a jumping catch by Reilly of a wildly thrown ball were the features. Stephens, a local amateur, pitched for the Cincinnatis, and, barring wildness, did fairly well. Davis became sick in the fifth inuing and Muldoon played in his dace afterwards. Darkness stopped the play at the end of the eighth inning. Attendance, 350.

St. Louis, Oct. 8.--But for miserable fielding errors, the Browns would have won to-day’s game with ease. Kemmler’s catching was very rank, in fact, the entire team played in a listless and careless manner. Caruthers pitched in excellent style until the sixth inning, when he became disgusted with the support he was receiving and merely tossed the ball over the plate.

TREASURER. School Commissioner Frenzel Refuses to Pay Tuition-Fund Warrants Out of Oth jr Funds. There was a special meeting of the School Board last night Chairman Conner stated the call of the meeting was made upon the report of the finance committee that Treasurer Frenzel would decline to pay outstanding warrants that have been drawn, because a part of the fund required to pay the warrants is not tuition fund. As there would be a call tor the payment of these warrauts to-day the board was called upon to act somewhat hastily. Mr. Frenzel stated that he would not pay the warrants drawn on the tnition fund, which was exhausted, out of the library fund, as such a proceeding was unlawful. Mr. Greenstreet: “We now have in the treasury about $14,000. This includes the library fund, $2,758.50; balance special fund, $11,241.50. The custom for the past twelve years has been to borrow from one fund for use in another, the object being to use the money in the treasury instead of borrowing outside. If we proceed on this theory the funds now on hand are ample to meet tho warrants issued by the board. Mr. Frenzel uow declines, after years of precedent, to allow the board the use of the library fund in his bands for other than library purposes, and for the purpose of determining the wishes of the board, we ask instructions whether we shall allow money to lie idle in the treasury while we borrow other money to use instead, or order that the library fund shall be loaned to the board for other purposes until such time as the fund is needed for library purposes, as has been the custom of the board and never objected to by its treasurers. This brought about a long discussion, in which it appeared that Mr. Frenzel's position was anew one, and it was charged to be brought about by his antagonism to the finance committee. Mr. Frenzel said he had just discovered the use of the moneys of ono fund to pay warrants drawn against another was not legal, and would injure his bond. It seems, however, that Mr. Frenzel did know a year or more ago exactly what he pretended to have just discovered, and this was clearly intimated by one or two of his colleagues. It -was further suggested that he had better resign, and allow the board to choose a less troublesome successor. Dr. Jameson said the question to settle was whether Mr. Frenzel was a creature of the board or not. He wanted to know whether he made his bond to the School Board or the State officers. Mr. Conner held that the treasurer of the board is a clerical officer, and his bond is made to the board*and not to the State of Indiana. Th's board is the custodian of the fund, and the treasurer is simply an agent delegated by the board for the management of the funds, and is under orders of the board for the disposition of the funds. Mr. Connor offered the following resolution: Resolved, That the treasurer of this board be directed to pay the warrants of the School Board out of the several funds in his hands. After long discussion the motion carried. Yeas—Baker, Conner, Dean, Greenstreet, Williams, Von nogut and Jameson. Nays—Bioghara and Frenzel. The board then adjourned. In the meantime it will be seen what Mr. Frenzel will do About it

A Young Man’s Dishonest Scheme. A smooth-faced young man by the name of Bechtel, from Lebanon, son of an undertaker there by that name, called at Kregelo’s undertaking establishment, yesterday', and presented a telegram from his father, addressed to Kregelo, authorizing him to pay the son $lO. Mr. Kregelo is well acquainted with the senior Bechtel. He thought the telegram was a forgery, and so informed the young man, who speedily left the establishment. It was afterwards learned that, the day before, he had secured $lO from Mr. Hazzard, of the coffin works, by the same scheme. Mr. Hazzard and Mr. Bechtel are quite intimate friends, and young Bechtel secured the money by claiming that his mother was in the city and had sent him to borrow $lO for a short time. “Give us a rest” cried a blootblack from the gallery of our opera-house, to a party in the au dience who had been coughing during the greater part of the performance. “Use Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup,” shouted another urchin.—Ex. The First Sign Os failing health, whether in the form of Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a sense of General Weariness and Loss of Appetite, should suggest the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. This preparation is most effective for giving tone and strength to the enfeebled system, promoting the digestion and assimilation of food, restoring the nervous forces to their normal condition, and for purifying, enriching, and vitalizing the Jfiood. Failing Health. Ten years ago my health began to fail. I was troubled witn a distressing Cough, Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervousness, I tried various remedies prescribed by different physicians, but became so weak that I could not go up stajjs without stopping to rest. My friends recoinmendea me to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, which I did, and 1 am now as healthy and strong as ever.—Mrs. E. L. Williams, Alexandria, Minn. I have used Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, in my family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly eradicate this terrible disease. I have also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an alterative, and must say that I honestly believe it to be the best blood medicine ever compounded.—W. F. Fowler, M. D., D, P. S., Greenville, Term, Dyspepsia Cured. It would be impossible for me to describe what I suffered from Indigestion and Headache up to the time I began taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I-was tinder the care of various physicians, and tried a great many kinds of medicines, but never obtained more than temporary re-* lief. After talcing Ayer’s Sarsaparilla for a short time, my headache disapS eared, and my stomach performed its uties more perfectly. To-day my health is completely restored. Mary Harley, Springfield, Mass. I have been greatly benefited by the prompt use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. It tones and invigorates the system, regulates the action of the digestive and assimilative organs, and vitalizes the blood. It is, without, doubt, the most reliable blood purifier yet discovered H.
