CHICAGO, October 8.-A Times Indian
apolis special says: The Times corre-
spondent, while in the Democratic head
quarters, CHANGED to mention q report he
had heard that $40, 900 would be offered in
one lump On Porter tomorrow, and the
vauge and uncertain intelligence created a
panic. The Democratic statesmen have it
that a portion Of the Republican corrup-
ton fund will be used in this way. 1t is
probable that the Democratic pool will be
made to take any big bluff which may be
made.
And now comes Judge E. Martindale,
former editor Of the indianapolis Journal,
with the statement that in a conversation
with General Grant, held at Manitou
Springs, Col, last July, the latter had ex-
pressed himself substantially as follows !:
In the Rev. DR.. Fowler's interview,
Judge Martindale says, however, that
Grant, in speaking OF Hancock, referred
to him as q soldier in terms Of praise, with
the qualification that. though he had
proven himself an excellent corps COM
mander, he had never shown himself pos
sessed Of any ability to all q higher posi-
ton. The Judge remembers distinctly
that he had used none of the unsoldierlike
epithets attributed to him by the Dew. DR..
Fowler, and the harshest criticism he had
INDUCED in was that Hancock was wrapped
up in himself, and that he wal undoubt-
eddy q vain man. Grant went into details
with regard to the Louisiana business, and
his remarks on this subject were about as
given In his published interview, only
more particular. Judge Martindale said
he would have given this important infor-
nation but for the fact that he supposed
the conversation was private.
Simon Cameron did the Chairman of
the Republican State Central Committee
honor by saying, on the occasion Of his
late visit to Indianapolis, that the Indiana
organization was the most perfect he had
ever seen.
Republican Expectations.
NEW YORK, October 8.-The Times says
the concurrent testimony Of our correspon-
dents. who have examined the party pros
poets in the Congressional districts Of the
various States, is that solid gains will be
made in the Republican delegation to be
selected this fall in Ohio. The Republicans
expect to gain six Representatives in Indi-
ana. at least two in Pennsylvania, proba-
bly, two, and even more, in North oaroli-
ma, which has ct present but one Republic
can /; there is q fair chance Of carrying
three districts. Starting in Vermont
with q Republican gain of one district, and
with the prospect Of returning from 20
to 30 seats throughout the North, the po-
itical complexion Of the House il hardly
q matter Of doubt.
Immense Democrat tic DemOnstra.
tiOn.
CLEVELAND. o., October 8.-There was
the greatest Democratic demonstration
ever seen in this part Of Ohio here last
night. Monumental Park was gorgeously
decorated and illuminated. stands were
erected in three places, and meetings or
ganized for the soldiers, Germans and gen.
eral citizens, but the crowd was so great
that other meetings were organized. No
very noted speakers were present, Pulitzer,
Of st. Louis, being the chief orator.
