What MIR. Grant Thinks About r4

A correspondent Of the N. Y. Herald
has been interviewing Mr.. Grant, and we
clip the following from what he said about
the election prospects:
Correspondent-What do you think of
the result in Vermont. Mr. President?
The President-I think it's satisfactory.
Correspondent" Satisfactory" is not a
very enthusiastic word, SO that the Demo
Gratis may still take heart.
The President latter a pause)-If we
carry Ohio aud Indiana next month then
think the Democrats have not the ghost of
chance to carry the country 10 November.
Correspondent But how ii the Demo.
Gratis carry OHIO apd Inliana in October?
The Pre- ident-Then, ! take it, Tilden
is as good as elected. But I do not think
that their carrying Ohio is at all probable.
Correspondert-How if the Republicans
carry Ohio and the Democrats Indiana
what is the outlook then?
The President latter cogitating wh,le)
Then the chances are pretty even for
both parties.

From the Dtroa Sum-
The Democratic senatorial convention
yesterday made no mistakes-the result OF
i.s deliberatlon is harbinger of success.
w. II. Van Epps was nominated by accla
matlon for state senator and B. I'll. Trus-
dell, on the first ballot, for representative
candidates of whom not only the people
OF the district but of the whole state have
Just reason to be proud.
Mr.: Van Epps was born 10 Schenectady.
New York state, August 18th, 1912, and
consequently is "a years of age. In 1854
ne settled in this city and opened a dry
goods and general store, which he man
ages to the present day. In 1856 he be-
came member of the Illinois state board
OF agriculture, and in 1860 was elected its
president, and served in that capacity for
TOUR years. For number of years he was
president OF the Lee county agricultural
society, and the only person in that capac-
ity that ever managed the affairs of the as
ISOLATION successfully. He has ever been a
democrat 10 politics. and in 1868 received
the nomination of his party for lieutenant
governor.
, Mr.. Trusdell stands at the head of the
Lee county bar-a bar that has given the
district Its circuit judge. the state its at
t1nrney general, and Chicago some of it's
aoiest lawyers. Always a democrat, he
mas never been politician, and the posi-
tlon now rendered him must be compli-
mentary because it was unsought. He has
talent to qualify him for the United States
senate and it will not come amiss in
strengthening out some of the bungling
legislation OF this state. We believe this
: the hrst office for which he has ever
oeen a candidate. He enters now upon a |
new career. 1t promises to be brilliant
lnd useful-creditable alike to those who
Introduced and support him.

Rarlia,nent and Tarkish Atrocities.
BY Associated Press.
1 LONDON, Aug. 1L-Further correspon-
dence respecting the Bulgarian atrocities
was laid before parliament yesterday, in
cluding the report of Mr.. Barring, one Of the
Secretaries of the British Legation at Con-
stantinople, who was deputed to investigate
the alleged atrocities, and whose report
has already been published. Among the
most important papers submitted was des-
patch from Lord Derby to Sir Henry Elliot,
the British Ambassador at Constantlnople,
sent on the 9th inst, which says:
"It appears to Her Msjesty's government
that the capture of Saikchar may lead to the
occupation of considerable part of Servia
BY the Turks !; therefore, instruct you to
urge strongly on the Porte that it 10 abso-
lutely necessary its troops should be kept
under control; that the unarmed population
be spared, and that q repetition Of the out
RACES iu Bulgaria be avoided. You will
point out that renewal of such outrsges
would prove more disastrous to the Porte
than the loss of battle. The indignation
of Europe would be uncomfortable, and in
reference in a sense hostile to Turkey in
evitably follow"

A Plain Dismissal,
washington Correspondence

A sixteen hundred dollar clerk, named
Redway, went through the Land Office to-.
day levying the political assessments on the
clerks for the Presidential campaign. The
male employees are assessed at the rate OF
two per cent. on their salaries. Redway
carried with him two lists, and informed
the employees that he was expressly or
dered by Secretary Chandler to put upon one
list for dismissal all who refused to pay.
Some plead inability to pay on account of
their large families, and some few refused,
but were openly told they would be dis.
missed. The Commissioner of the Land
Office headed the list with a subscription of
$50. They are hurrying up these political
assessments, and want to get them collected
before the legislative bill becomes law,
because 1t contains section which makes
It penal offence for any person to solicit
an employee of the Government to pay an
assessment levied for political purposes.

W. B. Moore-the fellow who was en-
gagged by Babcock to assist Col. Whitley In
abductiDg Raymond H. Ferry-was dis
missed from the Customs Revenue Service
by order of Bluford Wilson, Solicitor of
the Treasury. Moore had been subpenaed
by Babcock's counsel as witness for the
defence. He was there for some time and
was not examined as q witness, because
Emory Storrs, Babcock's counsel, found .
more convenient way of proving what he
wanted Moore to swear to. On his return
to Washington, Moore presented bill
against the Government for his expenses
while in St. Louis as witness for Babcock.
Solicitor Wilson refused to pay the bill, on
the ground that Babcock must meet the ex-
penses of his trial and the Government
could not assist him. Shortly after this
Moore was discharged. A short time since
the President ordered Moore to bc reinsta tated,
with his pay TO date back to the time of his
dismissal. Under this order Mr.. Moore has
been restored, and has drawn his pay from
the time he left here to go to St. Louis and
also the expenses of his trip there. Thus by
an order OF the President a portion of the
expenses Of Babcock's trial, which should
have been paid by Babcoek himself, has
been paid by the Government.

Carl SchuPz Halted.
From the n. Y. Herald |


Franz Sigel for TildeH means very en-
phatically that Carl Schurz will not have It
all his own way in taking out the Germans
for Hayes and Wheeler. We are likely to
witness some curious changing of sides in
this canvass. While men likeCarl Schurz,
Ex-Governor Fenton, and John Cochrane
are going back to the Republican camp,
Men like Sigel are coming out. Schurz was
disappointed because the Democrats failed
to re-elect him, and goes back to the party
he left in disgust. Fenton, left the party
because the patronage was given to Conk-
ling, and goes back because he got no pa
trouage from the Democrats. General
Cochnane, alas! having grown ashamed to
look his band Of starving patriots in the
face, goes back for rations. Sigel says he
has been well treated by the republic ans,
but the country demands change, and the
men must change before the country.

ST.. PAUL, MINI, August 11.-A special
dispatch from Bismarck transmits the fol-
lowing from. Gen. Terry's camp at the
mouth Of the Rosebud, under date Of Aug
ust S: Col. Otis with six companies Of the
22l Infantry arrived on the I'd inst, and
Gen. Miles with six companies of the 5th
reached camp the next day. The right OF
these, two fIe battalions, was most cheer
ing to our men, who are jubilant, but lack
something of the elasticity which
characterized them In the early
days of the campaign. Our fel-
lows are in temper which will
render them dangerous antagonists,
they present roughened APPEARANCE. Be-
side the new arrivals, the entire command
is. being reftted and assembled, on the
south bank of the Yellowstone. The march
will commence on the 7th inst. General
Terry, in an order dated July 26th, ex-
presses his thanks to privates James Bell,
VIM. Evans and BENZ. Stewart, of Co. E,
7th infantry, for conveying dispatches 10
General Crook and returHing. These men
among others volunteered to 60 through

Retreat Of Col. Antilch,
By Associated Press.


LONDON, August 1l.-A dispatch from
Belgrade to the "Daily News" says: Col.
Antitch retreated from Yavor to Ivanitza
without fighting. No tidings have been re-
ceived of the brigade which pushed forward
to Sienitza. Ivanitza was the original base
of Gen. Zach's supplies. There is good
military road thence TO Karnovac, which is
at the disposal of the Turks If Ivanitza is
also abandoned.
The "Times" Belgrade dispatch says :
Col. Antitch retreated to Ivanitza, much
further retreat. Ivanitza is surrounded by
high hills, affording the Turks excellent
offensive positions. The fact is, the Servian
war is about to assume much less ambi-
tious character than when first undertaken,
and is about to resolve itself into guerrilla
affair,

From Cincinnati to Phfladeluhia b,
Water.

Robert Snider, of Hamilton, Ohio, and a
few of his friends have decided to come
from that place to the Centennial, travelling
all the distance from Cincinnati by water.
In order to carry out this design, tney have
had built small steam yacht, which has
been christined the Nelkatt. Her total
length over all is 81 feet; length of keel,
2114 feet; breadth of beam, feet IA in
ches; depth of hold,3 feet inches; her
screws; %. A trial of her speed has shown
that she can without difficulty m IKE eight
miles an hour. The route of the proposed
trip is "Through the Wellsnd Canal, and
down the st. Lawrence, and to the Richie
lieu, and up that stream to Lake Cham
plain, down that lake to Lake George, and
down the Narrows to the Champlain Canal
and reach the Hudson at Troy, down the
Hudson TO New York and thence by the
Raritan and Delaware Canal and the Della
ware River" The entire route embraces
about 800 miles, and will probably oc.
cupy over three weeks.
