plurality of 1SS8. rbich "was 85,000. Tne Republican Jlc ia up la this State. TLo Now York dtv registration shows that. lb reapportionment has rendered it lrapoMlble to make an analytical comparison or the registration this year district by district. This year New York city has thirty Assembly districts. In ItiSH. and last year, for that matter, there were but twenty-four. The election ulitricts are sot the same, and even a comparison made on the basis of tlio election districts would bo of no value. Hut the Twenty-ninth and Thirtieth Assembly districts comprise exactly the same territory as was comprised last presidential year In the old Twenty-fourth Assembly dUtricr.and the district furnishes an excellent guide to show that the increase in registration is all cue to DemocratlcVains. In 188 thft Democratic repstration in this territory was 1 JJIil. This year it Is 17,484, In a district that is overwhelmingly Democratic. The-Democratio vote comes largely from the districts that nro on the river sMes of the city, and in these districts thu increases have been large, but they are Democratic - THE OILKGONV JIUDDLE. ,

Democrats snd PopulUta Got Into a Pretty Tangle In Their Efforts to Fuse. Chicago, Oct. SI. Mr. II. W. Scott, of the Portland Orejonian, is here. In an in terview he said: There Is a snarl in the preparations for tho e!ectiou In Oregon thatli lueiy to brim; serious dltscorutlturo to the Democrats and Populists. An attempt has been made by these two parties to form a fusion ticket. Tha idea was to withdraw two Democratic electors and two Populist electors and unite on the same number of electors of the two partly, and thus, If possible, cut a popular majority for this f us'.on electoral ticket over the Republicans. The difficulty has arisen under the provisions of tho Australian ballot law in that Maty, which is somewhat peculiar. Under this law It Is provided that all nominations must be tiled with tho Secretary of fetate and with the clerks of the respective counties at least fifteen days before the election. Each rarty makes its ticket and tiles It as required by law, and provisions aro only wade for tilinir independent tickets upon tho petition of an adeqate number of voters. Now it happens that this atrempt at fusion has been made too late. It la much less than fifteen days to the election, and was leas than fifteen days when this effort to combine, began to take shape. Tho respective electoral tickets had already been Hied w ith the becretary of State aud with tho clerks of tho counties according to law. It is made the duty of tho clerk of each county to matte an oiftcial ballot for each party, reproducing exactly the ticket tiled with him. This work had already been done. Now, within the time remaining before election it Is Impossible to form any other ticket that can bo legally voted at the c-ieVtlon. Nor ia there any provision In the law for withdrawal by a candidate of his resignation from a ticket when once his reslznation has been tiled. Tho c onsequenco Is that the Democrats and 1'opulists are not able to net together ujon any lecat ticket, nor or they able to get back to tho original conditions. They can. in fact, neither go backward nor forward. The Democrats may vote tor their own electors, but cannot voto for tho 1'opuliat electors; and the Topulists may vote for their own electors, but they cannot voto for tho Democratic electors. There is, in short, no way to combine the tickets because tho time fixed by law. under which such combination could bo made, has passed. It is a 6erious question to tho Democratic and Populist parties of Oregon. It is a tangle that produce serious demoralization, and as yet no lawyer ha3 been able to find a way out of II. It looks as if tho election, excepton the part of tho Republicans, would virtually co by default. But it may not be of such consequence, tinco it Is regarded as scarcely probable that any combination can be mado that would defeat tho Republican electors. . Predictions of Minnesota!. 8t. Paul, Oct 31. The threo rarty committees in Minnesota havo about rounded up their work. The indications point to a voto of 290,D00 for the State, against ilGOOO in 1S83. About 10,000 of the increase will be In the cities of Minneapolis and Duluth, and the mining regions of St. Louis county. Tho Democrats havo tuado a pretty complete poll of tho 8tato outside Df the large cities, and the Republicans have polled here and there a c ounty. The Populists Lave made no poll whatever, owing to the lack Df funds, and content themselves with the general claim that Donnelly will secure 100,000 votes and be elected Governor. Asked as to the outlook. Chairman Jamison, of the Republican committee, said: "The old-time Republicans are coming back to us in these last days of the campaign, and we shall have safe pluralities on all our candidates. Knuto Nelson will bo elected Governor by fifteen thousand to twenty thousand plurality. Five of tho Harrison electors will win by twenty thousand and tho other four by from five thousand to b?n thousand. The Legislature wiil have a Republican plurality snthcientlv large to return Davis to tho benate, and we snail elect every ono of the Congressmen." Secretary Smaller, of tho Democratic committee, says: "The Democrats are going to do far better than they expected at the outset. They are going to help the Weaver men to elect four presidential electors: the Populists and Democrats are Koing to have a good majority ia tho Legislature; Daniel V. Lawler will bo tho next bovernor, and the congressional delegation will be made up of four Democrats, two Republicans and one Populist." Kansas Republicans Confident. TorEKA, Kan.. Oct 31. There has been a genual tightening of the lines by both political parties preparatory to tho desperate fight which will be mado election dj' If cither party has made any gains during the rast week it is said by those who claim to know that it is the Republicans. Tho campaign, from all appearinces, has been pressed vigorously, and tho leaders declare they will sweep everything. The tact is that neither the Populists nor thv Dcniolrats hava mad a poll of the fctato. The Republican have carefully canvassed every county klce, and in the estimates they say they havo riven every doubtful voto to tho opposition. There are thirty thousand, and it is safe to say that ten tons of literature have been sent to them. Republicans are confident that they will elect their legislative and State ticket, md thaf they will icet seven 6f the eight Congressmen. People's party leaders insist that they will carry their electoral, btato and legislative tickets, and that they will elect five out of eight Congressmen. They deny that there is any appreciable falling off in their voto. and that the Republicans who are figuring on that will be sadly disappointed. They c laim 45,000 majority for tho electoral ticket. 3.000 for the Kate, and a working majority in both branches of tho Legislature. Chairman Jones, of the Democratic couimittee, telegraphed the national coramitteo that the voto in Kansas is one that no one can certainly predict Tim figures, it Is believed, will Le olose, and whichever party Wins it will bo by a close margin. Th Texas Fight. Austin, Tox., Oct, 31.-Ono week from to-morrow and one of tho hottest gubernatorial fights ever known ia Texas will bo closed. IIow tho voto will go cannot bo accurately stated at present. Clark i3 strong in both Democrats and Republican ranks.

NuKent. the third-party candidate. Is stronger than either side considers, and may change the facing considerably. Meantime the factions aro moving heaven and earth for TOtcs. Republicans Will Carry Illinois. Chicago, Oct, 31.-John P. Tanner talks with tbe utmosf contidenco of tho result of tho election. He has just returned from his tour with Governor McKlnley, of Ohio, across tho tate of Illinois and declares his entire satisfaction with tho situation as ho found it. In giving his reasons Tor his faith in Republican success, he said: "We will come up to Cook county with lVj.cko mn jority. I have been observing-events and conditions closely the last threo months. I have met people from all sections of theStato and from nearly every county in tho fctate. and I have not failed to Inquire as to tho political situation iu their respective neighborhoods." Views of Indlanlnna. Terre Hacte, Ind.. Oct. 31. Six orators visited hero Sunday. They were CoL K. V. Thompson. Senator Voorhecs, John E. Lamb, Col. fmas Nelson and ex-Congressman Cannon, of Illinois. Of course, they differed as to the forthcoming fieht. Senator Voorhees stated that the Hate would give a big Cleveland majority, and that Rrookshiro would ret l.ooo plurality for Congress. Colonel Thompson did not acree with aim about it. and Colonel Nelson decided that the Republicans of Indiana would wlu ?ut on tbe coDrresloual ticket cud for the electors.

It has Just been discovered that only about half of tho, counties of Oklahoma Territory havo complied with tho terms of the Australian law in several particulars, and that elections in other counties, if held at all, will oe illegal. Tho expense attached to a full compliance with the law is very heavy, and. In some counties, would exceed the business of the entire year, l or this reason many of tho law's requirements havo beeu ignored. The Canton "Miracle" Church Closed. Caxtox. Miun.. OcL 31.

BOW IN THE TABERNACLE

Spnrccon's London Church the Scene of a Disgraceful Incident L?.st Night. An ImmerBfonit WLo Jnterrurted Dr. Tierson "Forcibly Ejrct'd Aft?r a Fisht Lather's ' Clutch at Wittenberg Kededicated. I3IMERS IONIST TUT OUT. Ono of Dr. Flerson's Enemies Causes o Scene in Spurgeon's Tabernacle.. Special to tho Indianapolis Journal. London, Oct. SI. The Kev. Dr. Pierson, ot Philadelphia, presided over a prayermeetlns at Sparceou Tabernacle this evening. This was Dr. Pierson'a first appearance in his pastoral capacity since his return from the States, and at hist there was every prospect that ho would be cordially received. Numerous church officials shook hands with him before tho services began, aud when be stepped forward to open the meeting many worshipers applauded him. There were slight symptoms of dissent from the rear of tho room, bnwever, to indicate that tho partisans, of James Spnrgeoh and Thomas Spurgeon had not left the meeting entirely in the hands of tbe Piersonitea. While Dr. rierson read the 13ible and prayed-all was quiet, bat no sooner was the hymn after tho Scriptural reading finished thau uti adherent of Thomas Spurgeon rose, and called out: "Dr. Pierson, liko many other members, I would like to know whether you are a believer in baptism by immersion!" Dr. Pierson hadnoopportunitr to answer, however, for an uproar followed im mediately. Twenty or thirty men hastened. to tne questioners seat amid cries of "Pat him out." "Leave the meeting," "You'r no Christian," etc. Several men who had Btartedjto eject too immersionist . ordered him out of the building. Ho answered that he had as good a right to remain thcro as any member, and ho was ready to defend it. Two men seized htm by thaarms and half a dozeu more pushed and pulled until they got him into the aisle. There . tho immersionist made a stand, braced himself and partially freed himself with o violent strugglo in which two members were thrown down ou their knees, and three seats wore upset. The Snnrgeonites shouted 'Shame," and one middlcaged woman caught an antagonist of the immersionist by tho nrm nnd acre a id ed at him, "Aro you a Christian? Do you know how deadfnl it is for Christians to behave like this!" During tbe last struggle the immersionist iost his wind, and he was unable to longer obey the exhortations of hie friends that he should stick to his rights. He was shoved down the .aisle, thrust out, and the door was closed b'ebind him. Many women were Bobbins hysterically when the struggle was onded, and some time passed before perfect quiet was restored. Dr. Piorson, who was flushed and narrous while the immersionist was being ejected, recovered his possession tr.rtly and began an address concerning his plan's for the next ten months, lie said tbat he meant to make hot work for the devil iu the Tabernacle this winter. LUTHER'S CHURCH REDEDICATED. Emperor "William and Numerous Protestant Princes Asuist In the Ceremonies. Wittenbrrg, Oct 31. The Lmperor assisted In rededicating the Luther Church to-day. A great pavilion had been built in front of tbe Schlosskirscbe doors, where tho Emperor was to receive the keys of tho edifice. This church was commenced in 1430, and finished in U'X In 17G0 it was seriously injured by bombardment, and it Buffered iu the same manner in 1613-14. It was first restored in 1814, and has now, owing to Emporer William's generosity, been again restored. On the north side were two doors, to which Luther ailixed his theses. These doors were burned iu 1700, but were replaced in 1S58 by metal doors ten feet in height, presented by Frederick William IV. They bear ihe original Latin text of Luther's theses. Above on a golden ground is a representation of Christ, with Luther and Melancbthan at his feet On tbe right and left above the doors are statues of the electors Frederick the Wise and John tho Constant. The bodies of these doctors are buried in the church. . Everywhere in tho town are evidences of the great reformer. Not far from the railway station, outside the Elster Thor, stands an oak that was planted in 183a This tree is said to mark the snot where Luther publicly burned the papal bun, on Dec. 10. 1520. This spot is said to have been selected for the purpose by Luther becauso here were buried the clothing of those wbo had died from tho plague. In tbe Collegeien strasse is the Augusteum, in tbo court of which stands Luther's bouse. The first lloor is litted up as a Luther Halle, aud contains many articles that belonged to Luther. In the vestibule are a number of paintings representing scenes in Luther's life. In tbe market-place stands a statue of Luther, under a Gothic canopy. Under a brazen slab in the Schloss Kirche lie the remains of Luther. Immense crowds of people from all parts of tbe country were in town to witness the ceremony of the dedication of the rcdedicated church. Emperor William, the Empress and many princes took part in the ceremonies. There were two processions and an allegorical pageant At a banquet, afterwards, his Majesty said: The thought of restoring the chlosklrscho, the scene of tho first net of the reformation, struck a chord iu. tbo bearts of my forefathers. Alter my granilfatuer had prepared the means, my lamented father took up the scheme u-ith all tho warmth of bis deep feeling. It was not Uod's wiil that my father should behold tho finished vroru, but a grater ul posterity will never forpet that his name is Inseparably connected wltn this memorial of the reformation. To us the church is not only a memorial, but a serious admonition ami au expression of divine blessixi c through the Prolestaut Church. The confession of our faith that we made to-day In tbe presence of God hinds us and tho whole of Christendom. Therein lies tho bone of peace, reaching beyond nil lines of division. In the matter of faith there is no compulsion. Free conviction ot tho heart and the decisive acknowledgment thereof is a blesnod fruit of the reformation. We l'rotestnuts make fend with nobody on account of belief, but we hold fast our faith in the gospel to death. The Emperor then proceeded to thank the German princes and Protestant sovereigns of Europe for taking rart in the festival. Ho concluded by raising tbo cup tbat Wittenberg had presented to Luther on the occasion of his wedding. "This cup." he said, "once " touched Luther's lips. It shall servo me to drink to the welfare of my illustrious guests. Long life to tho Trofcstant princes of Germany, and the governments of tho German free towns." After the banquet the Emperor and Empress, her Majesty swearing a red velvet cloak, proceeded to an improvised theater in the cavalry barracks, where they witnessed a performance of a Luther festspid, illustrating tbe principal events in the reformer's life. Afterwards tney drove to the railway station. I he route was brilliantly illuminated with electric licbts, and thousands of people lined tho road. Their Majesties were given a most tumultuous ovation. The whole celebration, from beginning to end, was very impressive.

IT Jce Choyripki Put George Godfrey ."to Sleep" in the Fifteenth Round. . The Boston Colored Han Was Too Old for the Agile Toung Californian and Was Cleverly Knocked Out Alter a Yicious FishL Special to the Indianapolis Journal. New York, Oct. 31. There was a big crowd in the Coney Island Athletic Club house to-night to witness the light he tween George (iodfrey, tbe colored man, of Boston, and Joe Choynski, the . ban Franciscan, who has fought Corhett and Joe Goddard, tho Australian. Godfrey had tho reputation of having been beaten only twice, scoring now about thirty-six years, while Choynski ia about twenty-rive. The betting on the big; mill was in favor of the younger man, who was held to bo a terrible hitter with his right; the odds were $109 to SSO. Choynski won in the lifteenth round. It was n lively crowd tbat waited for tho bout to begin, but everybody was goodnatured. Tho weights of the men were given out as ICS for Choynki and 170 for Godfrey. Godfrey did not show his ago. He looks more like a man of thirty, in weight ho seemed to be 180 or 185-pound man. Choynski was a boy in appearance as regards weight and size. In tbe lirst round both men held oil for awhile, and in one rally Choynski got in a good left on the colored man's check. In another Godfrey planted left and right on Cboynski's shoulder and ears and Choynski went to his knees. Godfrey was just about to nit the Californian when he was down, but the. referee stopped it. Godfrey touched his head with a left in the third round and Chovnski went bang against the i opes. Tben ChoynsKi got in a ripper on Godfrey's left eye and half closed it. God-, frey went ou leading, and Choynski held his guard open as though trying to draw the colored man on. Godfrey uaineonand hit Choynski twice on the breast with his left, but not hard. The fourth round was unimportant, Godfrey seeming to be of the opinion that be should be more cautious. Up to this time Choynski had not used bis right hand. Ho had shown cood shiftiness and elever ducking, and his friends said he was only waiting to land that. terrible rigbt of his. In the fifth round Choynski brought out applause by slapping Godfrey in tho face and mazing a loud noiso by the concussion, but the crack had no effect. In the sixth round Godfrey went in to do a little fighting, but Chovnski showed additional cleverness in ducking. Choynski now showed his right twice, but fell short both times. . . In tho seventh round Godfrey went in with a runh, but did no harm, as Choynski jumped away witn consummate easo. Twice when Godfrey ran at him the Californian held him oft nicely with left-hand punches on the neck. The spectators wero surprised up to this time at Choynski's cleverness, lie had always been known before as a man with hard-hitting, hand; here ' ho showed good judgment and quick feet as well as last arms. In the eighth round Choynski landed on the stomach, led again and fell short. Then Godfrey, by. a right hand swing, brought Choynski to his kneesv He stopped thero foV six seconds, when he chased Godfrey all over the ring, and forced him to the ropes. In the ninth round Chonyski landed threo lefts on Godfrey's stomach that told. Godfrey missed a . vicious ngbt-band upper-cut, and Choynski missed two left-hand swings for tbo head. Iiound 11 was marked chieily by misses. Both were wary and bright. Godfrey won a clean Knock-down in tho twelfth round by landing on Choynski's head, and another with a right on the Jireast bone. Meantime Choynski got in two lefts on Godfrey's face. Choynski looked for tbe thirteenth, but so did Godfrey, who swung both hands with ferocity. butChoynski was not there either tune. The Californian was a good docker beyond doubt. He also got in a good lefthander on George's left eye. Tho fourteenth round was uneventful. Godfrey went in likt a bull in tho fifteenth round. Br ring so he acted only as Choynski wanted hiti to do to "play the sucker." Choynski hai been waiting for tbo chance all the evening. The colored man was furious. Ho rushed in, slashing wildly. Choynski jumped away laughing. Then Godfrey plunged again. It was his last effort. Choynski met him with the right hand that had been in retirement co long, aud there was no more Godfrey. Tho list was planted fnll on tbe Boston man's left jaw, half way down between the chin and ear, and Godfrey went to sleep. He was clearly and cleverly knocked ou. , A Giant Knocked Out.
