Views of Crn. II. V. ISoynton as to the Canses of Republican Defeat The Sate Senate. fciwciAl to tlie Iiitlianaxfotlii Journ&i A Washington. Nov. 11. GeiJl. V. Boynton. the well-known Washington correspondent, has just returned from a twomonths' political tour of Ohio. He is an intimate personal friend of editor Mnrat Halstead, and doubtless reflects also tbfct gentleman's views as to the causes which led to Republican defeat in the Buckeye State. General Roynton gay a he heard no mention of President Harrison's administration in connection with expressions from dissatisfied Republicans, aud that there were no national issues at stake. The General says, further: 4Tho saloon element did the work 'the saloon crowd and their partners, . the Prohibitionists I class both of them together because they work as one; everything the Prohibitionists do is of material advantage to the liquor men. and them only. Some of the labor against the party was done by Republicans who disliked Foraker, aud they were quite numerous. They have hated him ever since the Chicago con-wntini-thftv ivtra riimleased at some of his appointments and hurt by some of his j removals, a great many were opposeu to Foraker's caudidacy for a third term. "No; the Tanner business was of little or no consequence. I met a great many soldiers in Ohio, and was with a party of them all the time 1 was away, but Tanner's name was only mentioned once in my hearing, and then by a mutual friend, who wanted to know bow the ex-Coinniissioner was. Kverybody seemed to have a good word for Commissioner Kauni; those who spoke of his appointment said it was the best that could possibly have been made. "The situation in Ohio is rather peculiar just now. When I left the State it was understood that we had elected all the State ticket, with tho excention of the Governor. This, if true, will give the Senate a liepublicau presiding oflicer in the person of the Lieutenant-governor. Tho Democratic majority in that body will be only one. so you can readily see tUo repressive influence which a Republican presiding officer can exercise legislation." over proposed Democratic SPECIAL RAILWAY TICKETS. Supreme Court Decides Their Terms 31 ust He Compiled with to Slake Them Valid. Washington, Nov. 11. Among tho decisions rendered by the Supreme Court of the United States to-day was the following: In 1SS3 Patrick C. Boylan purchased a round-trip tricket from Chicago to Hot Springs, Ark., the ticket not to be good on the return trip unless stamped by the ticket agent at Hot Springs. Boylan signed his name to the ticket and accepted tho condition. He did not, on leaving Hot Sprints, present the ticket to be stamped, but showed it to the baggageman, who checked his trunk, and to the gateman, who permitted hiiu to enter the train, neither making any objection to tho ticket not being 6tamp?d. The conductor of the train, however, was more strict, and ejected Boylan from the train because his ticket was not stamped and he refused to pay his fare. Boylan brought suit in Illinois against the Hot Springs Railroad Company for damages for being expelled from the train, alleging that it was a breach of contract, tho company having agreed to transport him between the places named. The court ruled against him, and the case comes here for review. The Supreme Court, in an opinion by Judice Gray, affirms the decision of the lower court. It holds that the only contract between the parties was an express one, signed by Boylan himself, as well as by the ticket agent at Chicago. Boylan. having assented to the contract by accepting and signing it, was bound by the conditions expressed in it, whether ho did or did not read them or know what they were. The case is held to be the same as that of Mosher vs. the Iron Mountain Railroad Company. The action of the baggage-master and the gateman, it is held, does not change the status of the case.

Bank Officers Sentences Affirmed. Washington, Nov. 11. The Supremo Court of the United States, to-day, rendered an opinion affirming tho judgment of the Supreme Court of Noith Carolina in the case of Cross and White, tho president and cashier, respectively, of tho State National Bank, of Raleigh, N. C. The crime with which they were charged and convicted in the State court was forgery of a promissory note, and making of a false entry in the books of the. bank for the purpose of deceivingthe national bank examiner as to the financial condition of the bank. It was contended in behalf of Cross and White that their offense was cognizable, in the federal, and not in the fctato courts. The Supremo Court, to-day, decided against the convicted bank officers, and they will suffer the penalty fixed by the Wate County Court Cross seven years, and White live years hard work on the public roads of the county.

The official returns from sixty counties, received at the Secretary of State's ottice, and the other twenty-eight, on telegrams from the ofticals of tho counties, indicate that the plurality of Latnpson, Kepablican for Lieutenant-governor, will be 131. These figures will not vary much from the final result The Kepublicans elect all the State ticket except Governor. Official Vote in Iowa. Des Moines, la., Nov. 11. The official voto for State officers was canvassed in every county to-day. At 11 o'clock to-night tho State Register had received the full returns from eighty-Bix of the ninety-nine counties of the State. They show that Boies, Democrat, for Governor, is elected by a plurality estimated at 6,000. The lowest vote on the Kepublicau ticket outside of Governor was for Lieutenant-governor, and the returns on the eighty-si x counties give Poyner, Republican, 150.0U1; Bestow, Democrat, 152,543. A probable estimate of the thirteen remaining counties, basing the estimate on the vote lor Hutchison, who runs behind Toyner. gives Poyner tne election by about 500 plurality. The rest of the Republican ticket is therefore also elected by pluralities from one to three thousand. Obituary CniCAGO, Nov. 11.

Purgatives and emetics wero administered freely, and in due time the sick people were resting easily. After the danger point had been passed the doctor began a systematic investigation as to the origin of the trouble, and arrived at the conclusion that it was brought about by eating cabbage that had been sprinkled with Paris green, from the fact that the cabbage had been served at dinner, and those that had eaten sparingly of it were but slightly effected, while Mr. Cassel and the children, who had eaten a considerable quantity, suffered the most.

UPRISING IN EAST AFRICA
Action of Germans Cause yie Natives to Rebel Against All Foreigners. Massacre of Dr. Peters Confirmed Mexican Governor Killed and His American Wife Wounded Scandal in England. P.AST AFRICA TROUBLE. German Method Are Causing the Natives to Rise Against All Foreigner. Loxdox, Nov. 11. Since the news ar rived of the homeward march of Stanley with Erain Pacha and his party, and of the reported disaster of Dr. Peters's relief expedition, the British East African Com pany has been rapidly picking ufc all the best available men to send out to protect its territories from raids by the rebellious natives. Captain Lugard, whose name is well known in connection with the Lake Nyassa troubles, and Mr. George S. Mac kenzie and 150 men, left Mombasa this week. Judging from the activity displayed in securing fighting men, the British East African Company must anticipate having to do some heavy work in order to hold its territory against the incursions of the Arabs. The latest news from that region indicates that all the native elements are up in arms,- and are for the moment brethren in a common cause -to drive out tho now detested foreigners. This serious uprising on the part of tho natives is attributed to Captain W issmann's attempt to increase the spherefl. of German influence by exterminating the people. Denhart telegraphs from Zanzibar that he gives no credence to the report of the death of Dr. Peters. He eays that at tho beginning of October, Lieutenant Borchert's dhow, with Lieutenant Rust's col umn on board, was wrecked near Kipini. All tho provisions were lost. At the end of October Borchert and his party, being newiy equiped, proceeded ou their journey. GENERAL, FOREIGN NEWS. Mexican Governor Stabbed to Death by a Lunatic Ills American Wife Injured.
