There tras an important arrival at the Grand Hotel early Satnrday evening, in the person of Simon P. Sheerin, usually ot Logansnort, but just now of New York. Ordinarily there is nothing . important about Mr. Sneenn arriving at the Grand IIoteL He does it o ten, and nsually there is no fass made about it Hut this time it was different. Mr. Sheerin, as secretary of the Democratio national committee, is a man f much importance just now. and he was a man of very particular importance on this occasion. The local leaders of the Democracy, from Tom Taggart and K. E. Cooper down to Sim Coy and John 11. Wilson, were on the lookout for him. They

SHEERIN DISTKII1UTES THE DOODLE.

had an intonation from New York, which xniy be guessed at by the following from a Hw York newspaper of Saturday morning: "Chairman Harrlty and his associate managers of the Democratic national headquarters spent a fever alt day yesterday getting S. P. Sheerin oft for Indianapolis with the 'boodle' deemed necessary to carry the State for Cleveland. Mr. Sheerin. who is the Indiana member of the national committee, carried with him a satchel rilled with buffdles of bank notes of assorted aizes. There were packages of Si's, of Si's, of ?Vs, of glQ's and of 2&b. A lriena of Mr. Sheerin's. who had a peep into his satchel, eaid that the Z2 and 5 bundles predominated. 'Sheerin told roe he said, 'that there was enough to make thingslmni in Indiana. There was 350.000 in that satchel if there was a cent.' Others in the confidence of Mr. Harrity said that Sheerin only carried the first instalment of the corruption fund for distribution- in Indiana, and that twico as mnch as the tignre named would be sent out. if necessary, to insure the State for Cleveland. '1 h large quantity of notes of small denomination taken by Mr. Sheerin is evidence that tho directors of Mr. Cleveland's campaign have undertaken the contract of a wholesale tmrcnase.of individual voters in tbat&tate. Sneerin and the Democratic cohorts of Indiana bavo been clamoring for this money for weeks, and have been representing to Mr. Whitney and Mr. llarritr that in no other way coaid the Stato be prevented irum casting its electoral votes for Harriin. It is to cover such extensive attempts at corrupting the franchise as this that the cry of poverty has been raised by the managers of the Cleveland canvass. Tho Democratio national committee has never been in need of money. The amount that the Democrats are able to dispatch for use in the West is a sure indication of what may be expected in this city, and tells why thuy have been yelling 'boodle' here so unceasingly." Sheerin and his "satchel," which, by the way. was of a very bealthy size, arrived on time early Satnrday evening. He took a carriage quietly at ibe depot ana drove to the Grand HoU'l, not to save time or strength for the distance is only two squares bnt to avoid publicity, tie found the faithful lying in wait for him about the lobby of the hotel. Among ihem were Wilson, Coy, Albert Sahm. Sterling IL Holt, Keilly. ot the Stato committee, Jadae A. C. Ay res and one or two others, in the crowd was E. E. Cooper, and a colored orator of the Cooper stripe, one Olmstead, of West Virginia, who had been sneaKing in the State. These gentle;men had not been given the "tip." but they have a remarkable knack of scenting this sort of thing from afar. Tho most noticeable thing about the crowd was theentire absence of Democrats from other points in the State. The "yaps," as the rural committeemen are called about Democratio headquarters, are not to get their ringers on a,ny of this "boodle," at least not of this first installment. It is to be salted right hero in Indianapolis. Taggart knows enongh about rural Democracy to know that it is apt to be loyal anyhow, and he knows enough about Indianapolis Democracy to know that it requires a whole lot of money to keep it in line. He believes the State depends entirelynpon the way Mnrion county goes, and no effort will be spared to keep every Democrat in line and capture overy floater that can be "inducod.V A sample of the exrennir scale upon which their campaign is being rna in this city was given the other day when Holt offered to 5 ay a bill of $'2 for a Democratic kicker, hey feel that they must have Marion county, not only to carry the Statu for Cleveland, bat to make the Turpie faction in the, next legislative caucus stronger than the Gray crowd. Coy's peculiar "tine work" with the election officers in this county will naturally absorb a large chunk of theV'boodle." Sheerin and his satchel were deposited in Taggart's private room.

It is probable that Cnopur's share will be doled out to bun in small doses by Taggart, and a strict accounting of every dollar called for. Taggart ha4 had deaiingi with Cooper beforr. Mr. Sheeriu's work of Saturday night kept him up nntil a late honr. and he slept rather ltr than muni yesterday morning. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon ha departed with an empty satchel to Louisville to collect the contribution sof the Whisky Trust to the Democratic campaign fund, which is to be delivered at that point to avoid the

suspicion a visit of Mr. Sheerin to Peoria would at once create. CIVIL-SKKVICK COMMISSIONER Hon. Charles Lyman Thinks Harrison De serres and Will Secure Ite-Electloru Hon. Charles Lyman, of Connecticut, a member of the Civil-service Commission, arrived yesterday afternoon from Chicago, where he witnessed the dedicatory ceremonies last Fiiday. To a Journal reporter, who saw him last evening at the Dcnison Hotel, Mr. Lyman stated that there was nothing of special interest attached to his visit to Indianapolis. It was one of the dnties of the Civil-service Commission, he said, to visit periodically the postolnces of the larger cities, and he was here for that purpose. Iieing asked as to the political situation in Connecticut, Mr. Lyman gave it as his opinion that that State would cast its electoral vote for General Harrison. In years past, ho said, the Republicans had' been weakened by dissensions among themselves. Although he had been absent from Connecticut for some time, the information ho bad from sources he deemed authentic was to the effect that the party was united. Connccticnt. moreover, is largely interested in manufacturing, nod the two great parties being sharply divided on the issno of protection led him to believe that the KeDublioane would receive important accessions from Democratio protectionists. Mr. Lyman was also of the opinion that 1 be safe, clean, conservative and eminently patriotio administration of President Harrison would attract considerable strength to the Republican ticket. SAMPLE STOKIKs' OF DESERTION.

Two Good Men Lied About and Two Nondescripts Given Notoriety. Not long since the Evansville Conrier, in a special from New Alnany, contained announcement that a Democratio meeting had been addressed by fonr former Republicans, at a club-room. A Journal reporter yesterday- met a gentleman from Evansville and in the course of the conversation this subject came up. "It is one ot the old tactics ot the Democrats," said he. "Those named as converts are George Hippie, Washington Atkins. Frank Norton aud J. W. Hall. As to Mr. Hall, who is a respected citizen, he denounces 'the statement that he has gone over to the Democratio party as alio, infamous and slanderous, because having no foundation whatever. Frank Norton, superintendent of the rolling-mill, is thoroughly indignant, and denounces the author of the publication as an infamous liar. He told me that no workingman who has an intelligent comprehension of the issues involved in this campaign will support the free-trader Cleveland and the free-trade Democratio party. Ho added that when his reason is dethroned, when he ceases to love his wife and children, when he wishes to see our factories closed and our workingmen idle, then his vote will be cast for free-trade Democracy." "And as to Hippie and Atkins!" -"These men are political nondescripts. It is a common saying here that this man Hippie was paid by the Democrats the large sum of $2 to make that speech before the Hendricks Club. To my knowledge the Republicans ore willing to pay him 10 to keep hici in the Democratio party, where his natural instincts lead him. Born and raised a Democrat, he was a hanger-on and pensioner of that party until lbbO, when he came over to the Republican party and became a pestiferous nuisance. Mr. Atkins joins the Democrats because he was not renominated by the Republicans for County Commissioner, and his failure to be appointed postmaster. The Republicans who turn Democrats in this campaign- are either soreheads, or the statements, as in the ease of Mr. Norton and Mr. Hall, are lies." UNIQUE DILL. . Folnted War the fianry County Republicana Have of Putting Things. The following is rather a taking and ingenious hand-bill which the Republicans are scattering to advertise a meeting at which the Hon Joe Murray, of Colorado, will speak at New Castle Wednesday night. ROUGH OX DEMOCRATS! WHAT IS! "Wild Cat," "Blue Tvq" and "Yaller Do" monuy. The ten per ceut. tax on Stato bank Issues Is toe chain which holds this menagerie In sr.fety. The Democrats are for letting these fiur.ucial wild beasts loose by repealing that tax. YOU ARC THE MAN WHO WILL SUFFER! Toor money hunts down tbe workingman and poor man first. Henry's Record. Mr. Bynnm's accusations against Hon. Charles L. Henry, because of the lattcr's vote for a bill containing the revised criminal code, prepared by Senator Turpie, failed of its purpose to divert public attention to Mr. Itynum's efforts to debase tbe national currency, which, if it bad succeeded, would have) made the waste-workers of the land its iirst victims. Speaking of Mr. Henry, who Mr. Uynum said is an enemy to "labor, good government and home Industrie!'," the Anderson Bulletin says: "It might be worth while to examine the grounds of such a charge, where Mr. Henry la not known, hat in Anderson h h&i a record on all tbese questions that is absolutely unimpeachable, a record so indisputable, that the Democrat has never attempted to impugn it. a record that commands the respect of his strongest political opponents."

The new club will meet to-night, at 7 o'clock sharp, at tbe rooms of tho Marion Club, on Ohio street, just wext of the library, to take part in the parade.

BOUBKE COCKRAJTS SPEECH

What the Democratic Orator Thought of Cleveland Before llo Was Nominated. Mcst RemarUMe Protest Ever Made to a Convention TLe Mugwump Stuffed" Denounced in Calm, Measured Terms. non. William Rourke Cockran, who speaks here to-night in the interests of Grover Cleveland, is one of Tammany's representatives in Congress. He ia a Democrat who has been honored as no other Democrat has been honored. No one who attended the last Democratic national convention at Chicago will ever forget the scene of which Mr. Cockran was the central figure. It was five minutes to 2 o'clock on tho morning of June 23. The convention had been practically in continuous session all tbe previous day and all night. The free-trade and wild-cat money platform had been adopted, nominating speeches made, and tbe delegates, weary and cross, were awaiting the call of the States for the ballot that was to decide the candidate of the party. It was then that Mr. Cookran arose from his seat in the midst of the New York delegation and made the most remarkable speech ever delivered before a national political gathering. It was remarkable because of the time of. its delivery, the attention given the orator when the delegates were excited and impatient, and the intense feeling and candor exhibited by ' the speaker. For over an hour Mr. Cockran protested, in all the forceful languargo that an eloquent orator can command, against tbe nomination of Grover Cleveland, denouncing the contemplated action of tho convention as an. outrage on the party, and one that would bring sure defeat at the polls in November. Not one man in the vast audience doubted tho sincerity of Mr. Cockran'a utterances; his words and manner indicated that he was speaking the truth. No man could have commanded a hoaring before a hostile, wornout body at that hour unless he spoke from the bottom of his heart. Mr. Cockran's speech was reported in short-hand for the Chicago Her- - aid,' the most ardent Democratio paper in the West, and tho extracts printed below are taken from its columns. Mr. Cleveland has not changed since its delivery; he is the same stufied mugwump prophetthat he was on June 23. How can Mr. Cockran reconcile his position on that day with his conduct now? He spoke the truth then; ho is now speaking what? The main portions of Mr. Cockran's speech follow: I have a request to make to the convention, and I am about to auk its Indulgence. It in now live minutes of 2. I am worn out, physically, and I think the convention is worn out. It will be a matter of great phyeirial hardship to me to address the conveutlon now. What I Lave to pay I think the extraordinary political condition of this campaign makes necessary. I Kay it iu all kmm1 faitU and in all ktiutiiean. and I ask the indulgence of this convention that we may take a recess until 10:30 o'clock. Cries of "'o."J PL A IX, FRIENDLY STATKMKNT. Mr. Cockran, seeing that the request to adjourn did not meet the wishes of tho convention, went forward to the platform, and, after stating that be had been requested by his delegation to make a plain, quiet, friendly statement of the political conditions iu Nqw York State, said: Wehavehad tbe action of our State foretold for us, our loyalty pledged for us by gentlemen who are about to ask you to reject our advice, and by some gentlemen who have not hesitated to taunt us. Gentlemen, we will be loyal, but our exte4 riencea in this bodr are apt to convince us that. mere may oe sucn a tning as too mucn-loyalty for one's personal comfort, it seems to me that tbe spirit in which this convention has apfroacned this subject is the profession of tho belef that New York Democrats will be loyal anyhow, and because they will be loyal they must be ' outraged by the party that depends upon their loyalty. We have come hero to this convention, and notwithstanding that fare to which we are about to be led, we state to you that If It be decided to cast aside the precedents of a century, to violate every notion of State rights, as these notions have been entertained, cherished and preacheU as articles of tho Democratio faith; if it be determined to thrust down our throats a no.mluation against which we protest; if it 4e determined by this convention that contumely shall be heaped by the party upon the hoads of loyal soldiers, soldiers must still be loyal, no matter what outrage be perpetrated against them by the party or cause which they serve. But, gentlemen, while tho members of this delegation lu this convention, while the members of the great organization which we represent, will be loyal to the action or this body, no mutter what its action may be, there is In the State of New York a vote which cannot be controlled by political machinery, and that is not always the mugwump vote, 'the distinguished gentleman from New Jersey, Governor LeonAbbctt. who proposed the name of Mr. Cleveland, end lotne of the gentlemen who seconded the nomination, eeined to have reached the conclusion that the business of the Democratic party is toofficer lt3 conventions, shapo Its policies and name It candidates in order to pleaso an element that despises our party, derides its history and professes superiority to it. Mr. Chairman, It Is eid there is an Independent element that will accept a certain candidacy and no other, that there is an element that will accept a certain candidacy becaimo it Is better than the Democratio party that tbe candidate Is superior to the party from which be springs, and co it will support the man while it w ill continue to deride and denounce the party. " But what we do protest against in New York is that our party shollbo surrendered into the control of those who despise it and dislike It, that one man may be exalted and the Democratio hosts degraded. Mr. Chairman, let me say to this convention in a spirit of entire candor, and in that frame spirit of friendly discussion in which I hone to continue and conclude, that it is not surprising to me that Mr. Cleveland should be popular in other States.' It is not tuiprlMiig to me. above all, that he snouid bo popular in Republican States. Great applause. You gentleman who live outside the btato of New York remember him only as the last Democratio president, and the only Democratio ex-President who ever administered the affairs ot this Nation within the memory of most of y ?u. All your associations with him were pleasant ones. All your memories of him are probably grateful ones. Ho was the only man who.io career brought you in touch with the great federal government which you .support by your taxes and which you would defend with your lives if it were In danger. Applause. For four years we have 'seen nothing of, him. For four years he had passed orf the stage, and. except an occasional letter written to some friend upon some public question, you have hal no evidences even of his existence, except those memories or which I have. poken. But with uh. in the state of New New York, gentlemen, let mo say to you in kindness, let ine say to you in no spirit of disparagement to Mr. Cleveland or to his history, to his reeord as an administrative otlicer. to hU patriotism a a man. to his virtue an a citizen; let me say. I repeat, that. In the State of New York, for four years the forces that have invoked bis name, tbe men who have assumed the namo or tho Cleveland Democracy are the men over whose prostrate bodies tho Democratio party has been compelled to march to victory. FOES OF THE PAKTV. , We have been told in tho campaign of 1SSS that the Democratio nomination for Governor was not np to the Clt velaud standard. The men who are now here from New York State supporting his candidacy headed a bolt czair.st ,the Democratio candidate for Governor. 1'he people were up to tho standard, bnt they were up to a Democratic standard by twenty thousand majority. Ever since be vacated his otllce he has lived in the Ftatoof New York, and ho has been too busy to attend to politic:. Throiu'houtall ttee four yearn thce men who have assuiiied to ipeak of the Cleveland Democrscy ns their especial property have been the foe ot every Democrat which he assumed to support. In 1SUO, in thorcity of New York, when we hud fa.vd a new electoral law. under which the argext power were vested in the county cleric ami fehertif. these name u:eu made. combination with the tiepnblU-ans by which they tuK the nomination for Mayor and gave the nomination Tor county clerk and fchc-ritf to the Kepubilcaus. and tried to elect the ticket by a campaign of slander, outrage and contumely leveled ngainut the regular Iemoc ratic organization. Thoy do- ' nouueed the Democratic party of the city of New Yorrc as the organized crime of th county; they declared that the men who made Democratio majorities were what they called semi-crimtnals and beyond the pale of civilized lite. We met them lu the localities where we are known; we appealed to the Judgment of our neighbors and of tbe voter who knew us, and w were vindicated by majorities ranging from throe thousand to sixty thousand, majorities cast for our party and forthe btate. - Now, gentlemen. hen you nro asked to make this iiotnin.itlou against our protect, it means an indorsement of the war that has been mnde against us and against tho Democratic party; it

means that we should debase ourselves before the men whom we have trampled in the dust. In the mrr.e of a triumphant, aggressive and milttaut Detnocrac)-; It means that the men who have carried trio banner to victory, by majorities reaching 43.000, are to be dishonored la a Democratio convention, and they are to have a brand of disapproval placed upon their action, because, .forsooth, their methods have Been objectionable to Kepuhllcans. Now I have said that I can understand the cause of all the popularity of Mr. Cleveland In tbe Republican Mates. The gentleman from Pennsylvania declared that Pennsylvania never made a threat in a Democratio convention, and I Was reminded that if she did it would be about as absurd as a baby threatening a giant with the instrument by which the teething process is facilitated. What could she threaten Democracy with? Voices: "Nothing." May I not call your attention here, gentlemen, to the peculiar character of the organization of our convention and the extraordinary power for evil which Is sometimes exercised by these Republican strongholds! I say it without the slightest reflection upon tbe gentlemen who sit In this convention. The criticism is addressed solev to the system. Here wo have this State, rabid In its Republicanism, exercising the enormous influence of sixty-four votes on the floor of this convention, more than twice as many as the imperial btate of Texas can cast In obedienee to the judgment of its delegates, and then, after they have started us upon a doubtful career on tbe lirst Tuesday In November next they will, with thirty-two electoral votes, thrust us into the ditch they have dug for us in this convention. And so are tho states Republican by overwhelming majorities who sent down delegates here instructed to Invade the Democratic stronghold of New York and beat down our barriers because they know our hands will never be raised against Democrats. When with that presumption upon our loyalty which gives them Impunity they ask the Democratic party to outrage its defenders and its soldiers that they, tho beneficiaries of its succesH, may dictate its policy, isn't it well for us to remember for a moment the cause that produced this singular appearance! It Is plain and easy to be ascertained. Mr. Cleveland is popular In Republican states because his Democracy is not offensive to Republicans. CLEVELAND "rorULAItlTY." If I might go behind the glowing periods of the gentleman from Pennsylvania, whose poetio fervor undoubtedly betrayed him into some extravagance of expression, if he will permit me even that degree of criticism, we will find an explanation for this extraordinary activity in the belief that this particular nomination may increase chances th senatoral districts of the State, chances of candidates for oounty clerk, chances perhaps for candidates for Congress in the few Democratic localities to be found in these Republican strongholds, and right here, gentlemen, is the kernel to our objection to Mr. Cleveland's availabillti. I believe that Mr. Cleveland is a very popular man, a most popular man. I have said that ho is a most popular man let me nay a mau of extraordinary popularity everyday in the year except one, and that is election day. A popularity which I might describe as tumultuous but not reducible to votes. It is a popularity based upon the fact that his opponents speak well of nlm, but will not vote for him. So it Is delusive, bo it is calculated to arouse enthusiasm four months before election and to produce disappointment for four years after election. My fellow-citizens, don't wo remember four years ago-in fct. Loulsi I will venture tossy there are now right in this body a few gentlemen whose memories are tinged with sadness as they retlect upon the enthusiasm and couhdence with which we laid wagers of three and four to one that Cleveland would be elected after the nomi .nation of 1883. lnthebtate of New York the Democratic party was seriously impoverished, and the Republican adherents, raised to a degree of wealth which they never enjoyed before, even from the operations of the robber taring We were misled by that fictitious popularity which comes from a name, and we in New York do not want to bo misled in that way again. Applause. The man whom we consider strong more than any other. In whose leadership we have faith, is he who bears upon his body the marks of the weapons of the Republican fold; the man who pleads for the cause in front of the army is the uiSii who Knows uo laggards lu the rear.

We have a homogeneous party now. for God's Miio luiive u 10 us. ii wo oe non accoraea me nomination wo aak for Xroin the 8tate of New York, give us any citizen In this United States who is a Democrat. Cheers and hisses.) Give us some man who will not raise np against us any act of hostile-force within tur own ranks. I beiievo it was tho distinguished military hero from Massachusetts. General Collins, who, declared there wa no Democrat in this Union who would vote against that ticket, but there sit behiud him two heroes whose deeds hate net escaped the attention of history, two heroes who have led the Union armies to victory, but who have never made faces at the vanquished foe. and they will tell you here, comrade who have - fought with them, heroes who sustained them and heroes who fell with them on the Held of battle they will tell you that the soldier vote of tho tate oi New York, of whom there aro at least twcnty-rlvo thousand Democratic, wilfnot support the nomination of Mr. Cleveland loud cries or-"Three cheers for General bleklea".! and I submit to you, gentlemen. Is it wise to antagonize that vote, to antagonize It without reason, to antagonize it blindly, defiantly, recklessly! What is the excuse that is given for 1U If I understand it. there are two excuses; one, that we can get this mugwump vote. Now. I warn this convention from tho experience of every Democrat who has carried the btate of New Y'orfc, and none has failed to do it in nine years except Mr. Cleveland, that you cannot et one mugwump vote without driving away a hundred Democratic votes. The Democratic party cannot fuse with the party that despises it, which derides its principles. The Republican party differs from us on all principles, it diCers from us on theories. We march against It in serried hosts; we tako from it everything it has in the way of political property. We leave not sticking to its hands one single ollice which we can take away from it. " " But while these Republicans go down before us wo respect them nud tuey respect us. We ask no quarter from them and we give them none, when the Iord delivers tho Philistines into our hands. But with the mugwump there can be neither treaty of peace nor Implied faith. He is not bound to surrender an ottice which he docs not want to enter the Democratic irty; he wants to own it. lie wants you to let him Into your fellowship in order that he may accomplish his purposes. DKXY1XO JUSTICE TO BCRCIIARD. I bavo heard it stated here, I think by the gentleman from Pennsylvania, that in 1634 the State of New York protested against the nomination of Mr. Cleveland, and foretold his imminent defeat. Tho gentleman from Pennsylvania is mistaken in his history. The Stato of New York votexl for Mr. Cleveland in 1881. The State of New York by an overwhelming majority presented hi name to thl convention. A minority of the delegation protested in the hearing of the nominating committee against tho Imminent evil of imperiling pretension- that looked as fair as any that dawned over the Democracy. Now, the prophecy was not carried out or realized, but why I Wo are told that Mr. Cleveland carried that Btate; We are told that ho was successful at the pollj, and does not the gentleman remember that that victory was due to penury rather than to this amazing popularity, which appears so great before the eye m tho springtime and so impalpable in the colder lights of November. Is not this denial of justice to Burchard enough to make his grave-clothes tit him uncannily in the gravel Is it not enough to make his bones turn in his groove! You say to me that Tammany Hall must be loyal to the Htate Democracy, and that David B. Hill mubt be loyal to the party; but. then, all the . faithful aro not comprised within the ranks of the militant organization that must bear the brunt of the combat. Wo will go back to our people If you end us back; we will take the commission which you place iu our bands; wo will submit to the indignity, to the outrage, and we will try to undo all we havo done for eight years. We will try to take these two irreconcilable elements, tho mugwump and the Democrat, and fuse them into a mighty force for victory in November; tut let mo warn you, gentlemen, that the . professions of nine years and the lessons of nine years caunot bo unlearned in three months. Thoe men who have been taught by us to believe that the mugwump was the natuaral foe of universal suUruge and of free Democratic institutions; that his hostility to Democracy was based on the fact that It was the party of the horny hand and the brow that sweated with toll if we go back aud tell thein now that these men are after nil the true exponents of Democratic faith, that tho Democratic convention has accepted a nomination from their hands and rejected the advice of the Democratio party, one of two results will follow, in my judgment: either thete people will doubt our sincerity and refu.e to support the ticket, or else they will concede our sincerity, but thdy will visit u w ith their contempt; and in both event- the ticket will bo menaced with disaster. Novr. it is a fact that It takes notmuca of an abstention from the polls totlnnage J)emocratic proiHcts. 'Ihe rfjtiigers to Democratic succecs from Democratic sources are seldom visible ou the surface. The dancers from mugwump illiillon are magnified ten thousand fold lu advance of the crucial test of the ballot box. I never knew a mugwump follower, all tbe mugwumps 1 ever knew wero leaders and officers. You on gauge the number of them by the number ot person you can place unon u platform, tho mugwump who is not placed upon tbe platform either goes nshlng or votes the oilier ticket. All I have to say to you, gentlemen, i this: When Democrats become cold to the party they don't ruh out and o interviewed. Democrats whose abstention from the poll will mean disaster give little manifestation of their displeasure. You never renllze the pvril uutilthoday after election. As iu lS we were betting large sums of money on whst eemed a sure thing; when the votes were couLted that silent distrust of tho ticket 1u Democratic districts was found to havo blunted all our hoje and injured nl! our prosioets. I nay to you, gentlemen, to-digHit. in all candor and all honor, that for the pmunalitr of Mrl Cleveland I have the profoundest respect and for himself I have even u warm friendship. I oppose him .iu this convention becaue he comes between my party and ihi light of success at the polls; I oppose hlai in thin convention teeaue hi candidacy imperils the success of u party which I low visited with bright and alluring prospects. I appeal to you to pau-e now before this conteipplnted action be consummated, I -e fore this invasion be made complete. Build, gentlemen, build your hones of ucces,not upon the shitting sauds of jolltical speculation and prophecy, not

upon divided, discordant and repellant forces, which it is Impossible to fuse together build It upi the solid rock of Democratic harmony. Democratic unity and Democratio enthusiasm. The people whom you have trusted wiU lead you to victory by majorities so decisive that the Republican prospects throughout the Nation will undergo the same blight which they have received in the Mate whose triumphant Democracy asks you now only for tho permission to assure you a Democratic victory in November. - MIS. BALDWIN'S LECTURE.

The Distincnished Missionary lias Returned to Defend the 31istreated Cbkese. New York. Oct, 23. Mrs. Baldwin, for twenty years a missionary in China, epoko in the Asbury Methodist Church to-day before a large congregation. Sho spoke in high terms of the Chinese, and of the kind treatment which ehe received at their hands during the score of years she dwelt in the empire. She regarded the Chinaman superior in many respects to other foreigners whom the United States government accords free entrance to this fand and citi zenship here. Certain individuals, apparently laboring men and foreigners, took umbrage at tho speaker's remarks and left the church after creatingsome disturbance The speaker said since she had been dclivenpg lectures in this country she had received threatening letters, and, not lonff ago, special policemen were detailed to guard her house to circumvent a scheme lor burning it down. This in Christian America, and in lirooklyn, the city of churches. ' She had never been in such danger in China. Tbe Chinese, she said, were good laborers, and could work longer and iu places where others could not. In the building of the Union I'acilic railroad aud in reclaiming overtiowed land in California they had been of inestimable benefit to the people of the United States, yet they had been beaten, and bruised, and killed, all because they worked, wbjle the Irish and others got drunk and would hot work as well. - " . It was when this reference to tbe Irish was made that the disturbance occurred. Continuing Mrs. Baldwin said that it made her sick to hear speeches made such as were made during the Columbian'colebration. in which America was spoken of as tho land ofthefree. Sho thought such was not the case. During the war on the Chinese nt Seattle, Cleveland and Uayard wero appealed to seven times to protect the Chinese. "Did be send the troops!'' she queried. "No; he merely eent troops to protect the United States mails." WAS THE BRITISH SPY. Irishmen at Philadelphia Eelieve the Notorious Hayes Is John Patrick Haynes. Philadelphia, Oct, 3. Irishmen of Philadelphia now believe that John Patrick Hay lies, who figured so conspicuously in the trial of Thomas Xeill, who was convicted on Friday in. London of poisoning women of low repnte, is John Patrick Hayes, formerly ot this city, who, it is said, became an English spy a few years ago and left this country last spring. At that time it was reported that he carried with him important information relative to the movements of certain secret Irish associations in this country-. Irish leadersdeclare as positively as if they had personal knowledge that liaynes is no other than Hayes, the spy. and that the spelling of his name was either a typographical error or had been done purposely bv himself in order to conceal his identity. Hayes's evidenoe last week, they say, ehowednbat he was an English spy; that he had been in America during 18'JO, and that he was employed by the government in making becret inquiries daring the Parnell trial, all facts which go to prove tbe identity-of the man. Hayes at one time figured conspicuously in secret Irish organizations. He was grand organizer of the Fenian Brotherhood and chiel superintendent of tbe distribution of dynamite in England, and, therefore, icnow all the workings of the organization. Some years ago Irish leaders were aroused by the fact that their greatest secrets were known in England and movements nipped in the bud. Hayes was suspected of betraying tbe secrets of the organizations, and was watched with suspicion by many Irish leaders, and finally barred out from the organizations altogether.

Attorney-general: Dear Sir You are hereby requested to take general charge and direction of the execution of the statutes of the United States touching the appointments of super visors of elections and 'special deputy marshals, and the performance of their duties, and their compensation, so far as these subjects are, by the. Constitution and laws, under the supervision and control of the executive branch of tho government. Yours truly, (jKoviiit Cleveland. Depabtment or Justice, ) Washington, D. C, Oct, 15, lSC. $ Sir In pursuance of a letter of the 5th inst. from the President, directing the attorney-general to take charge of the "appointment of special deputy marshals, the performance of their duties aud their compensation, together with the compensation of supervisors." at the congressional election next November, you attention is directed to the provisions of Titles "4 and 2j, Chapter 7, Title 70 of the Kevised btatntes.

You should make yourself familiar with the statutes referred to, and see that they are understood by your deputies, who should be discreet men impressed with the importance of an honest franchise. The manner of discharging these duties by yourself and your deputies is largely left to your discretion.
