thrown from the track and partly turned
over, the intense heat having. it Is be-
heved spread the rails, injuring 0. Z. Britt,
of Milwaukee, fracturing his spine and
right leg; he cannot recover. Mr.. Edward
Marshall, of Medina, was badly in
Jured In the head and internally, and will
probably die. She has been laying uucon-
scious since being injured. Mrs. Chaplain
Earnshaw, of the Soldiers home, was severe

probably recover. Mrs. 2. d. Beecher, of
the Soldiers home, is painfully injured In the

Hopes or Recovery.

Total supply.
24R2n 900 2.54h nnC

There is here a deficit Of only 81 900 bales. Part
OF this Is pretty certain to be met by Increased ship
600 b1le8 already shown in the cotton afioat. and
possibly the remainderwll be made up By increased
arrivals from other quarters Seven pence pound is
good magnet IL II true that the East India supply
includes y good many Bengsls, but these are going
rapidly Into consumption, and as weight for weight,
they take longer time to spin than the other de-
scrlpnons OF cotton, they will be instrumental in
bringing aDCut reduction in the total rate of
sumption.
1t will be noticed that some of the state
ments here put forth are of a very chap
hazard" nature. The circular acknowledges
that cotton is in strong position, and that
there will be struggle between demand and
supply and prices range to a high level.
Then the reasons are given why buyers are in
a better position than had been believed, and
the statement is backed up by figures which
are themselves fortified by such hypothetical
possibilities as: 1t is pretty certain that this
excess viii be increased ere,p If not
the Indian import will arrive, and from
other sources there will probably be about
the same as last year. A deficit of "only
about eighty-two thousand bales is admit
ted part of which is pretty certain to be
met by increased shipments, ETC., and posi-
bly, the remainder will be made up by in
creased arrivals from other quarters The
circular makes great parade of an increase
from India, but even on this punt is obliged
to admit that it includes ga good many Ben
gals, " which is a short stapled cotton that
makes spinners swear and consumers curse.
The Elliston June circular, with bear pro-
clivities is the strongest bull document that
writers on cotton have produced this season.

STEPHENS,
OF Georgia, Disguised with Hayes
P@rtisanship-sze Sees the Fraud
at Last for all that he Is.

Washington special TO the Savannah
Ne'1s: Before the judicial bill was vetoed
Mr.. Stephens, who has always been on good
terms with Hayes, had an interview with
him and stated that the provisions of thai
measure would not embarrass the Executive.
Hayes listened to Mr.. Stephens 8 arguments
and then intimated that he would veto the
bill. His partisan action in carrying out this
determination has convinced Mr.. Stephens
that a conservative course III regard to issues
between the Democracy and Hayes is no
longer practicable. He to-day notified
Speaker Randall that he would IN every
sense uphold any future plan that the party
might decide upon, and would totally aban-
don the ground hitherto taken by him. Dr.
FELTON, and Emory Speer are in accord with
Mr.. Stephens IN this matter. Other Demo-
Gratis who have been ON conservative ground
have also adopted the same course. The
party is thus solldly united. Mr.. Stephens
and his fellow-thinkers have been deceived
by Hayas's plauaible projections for a long
time, but 1t IS gratifying that they have at
last awakened to the true situation. This &C.
ton on their part shuts off forever any Demo-
cratic sympathy for Hayes"

CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND.
Degrees Conferred on Eminent Men OF
Letters, Scientists and Printers
HuxIeY's Personal Popularity.

London letter to the New York Tribune: !:
Cambridge has had brilliant week of it,
having summoned a number of eminent men
to receive her honorary degree of LII. d.
The list comprises Mr.. Browning, Mr.. Hux.
ley, Sir Frederick Leighton, Mr.. Spottis-
woode, the new president of the Royal socie-
ty; Professor Stubs, the historian; Mr..
Justice Grove, Prof. Henry Smith, the OK
ford mathematician; Mr.. Sorby, president
of the Geological society, and two function
aries of the British museum; Mr.. Bond, the
nav librarian, and Mr.. Newton, the keeper
of Greek and Roman antiquities. There
are ten in all, but it Is not to be
supposed that Cambridge makes her honois
cheap by finging them lightly about. She
has given no honorary degrees since 1874,
when our countryman and present minister
to SPAN, Mr.. James Russell Lowell, received
one, in company with the lord chief justice,
Sir Garnet Wolseley, and other notabilities.
There is no name among those of this year
which can give rise to any cavIl. They all
belong to men of wide general reputation or
of special celebrity In particular departments
Perhaps it is a sign of the times that full
half or the whole are eminent In science and
that more than one of these has taken a con-
splcuous part IN those controversies between
science and theology which have from time
to time been carried on. So bitter in both
universities was the theological feeling
against science that men like Darwin and
Huxley have had to wait long for a kind
of recognition and compliment implied by a
DOL. or Ii d. Darwin had his degree only
last year from Oxford, and now it is Hux-
ley's turn at Cambridge. HIS appearance,
says a correspondent, was the signal for loud
and prolonged cheering. Cambridge is not
the bear-garden Oxford is on these occasions.
but the students and the rest of the audience
speak their minds freely, and a man soon
finds out whether the public opinion of the
University rati6es the Official acts of its au-
thoritles. In Mr.. HuIley's case, TIE approval
was cordial; it was not less so when Mr..
Browning came forward, and Sir Frederick
Leighton. They were the three fayorites, and
are doubtless the three best known to the
public. Mr.. Browning Is not a graduate of
either university, but he holds the rare dis
Junction OF an honorary master of arts from
Oxford, degree much more seldom granted
than the DOL, which is supposed to be its
highest honor. Mr.. Spottiswoode is a man
In whom modesty contends with merit. One
OF the first living mathematicians, his cleo
ton to the presidency of the Royal soUiety
was nevertheless a surprise to many people,
so studiously had he avoided the glare of
publicity. He is a printer, the head of one
of the largest houses In England or the world,
beloved by his men, to whom he is father,
with brilliant social position, and occupa-
tons enough for three men of average work
ing power. Watts has painted him, and Ra-
jon has published an etching of the picture.
1t Is face of singular beauty and dignity"

THE COTTON SUPPLY.

IJillstOu q W. b EHRllsu AlOnGuly COlLOn
report, of June 10th, is decidedly bearish in
its tone; the following statements from it are
of interest:
The outlook continues upfsvorable for consumers,
but there Is no for alarm The position Of the
market is one Of considerable strength but Is not
strong as 1t was month ago. The deficit In the
visible supply Is gradually Diminishing and the pros
poet OF an nconvenient scarcity OF cotton is growing
more and more remote. That the struggle between
supply and demand Will continue for several months
TO come Is undoubted, and that prices Will range
hgh level is equally true, but there is nothing to JUS
ify the semifanine rates which appear to be antic
ipased in some quarters. Let us look at the pros
PScCs 81 supply for all Europe fer the remainder of
the sesssn. The receipts at the American ports from
about SO, 900 bales. There are 255,000 bales ia
stock, making q total supply OF 35l 900
bales. Last season American splnners
took $4,000 bales from the ports. This
year, as they hold large surplus stock, purchased
in anticipation OF the rise which taken place ia
This, with $1,000 bales for stock the thiry-frSt
OF August, deducted from the supply of Boil 900
bales, would leave 10000 bales for shipment te
Euroge which added TO 259000 bales afiOat at the
end Of May, would give 435,000 bales as the import
between May 31st and September 30th. There are
BIZ 600 bales atioat from India, against 191 900
last year-an excess or 121 900 bales. 1t is pretty
certain that this excess VIII be further increased
shipments made IN time to arrive into Europe by the
end OF september, but even II it Is not so increased
the import OF East Indian cotton between the end
OF May ana the closb of Septem Der will be Al 600
bales, against 100000 last season. From other
sources we shall probasy get about the as last
season. On the basis of the foregoing, the supply
