man of the National Democratic Executive
Committee, has arrived. He refused to b.

Joint Debate in Indiana.
CHICAGO, September 2d.-The 7ribune's
special from South Bend says: The first of q
series of joint debates between A. G. Porter,
Republican candidate for Governor of In
diana, and Franklin Landers, his Democratic
opponent, held here to-day, suffered in the
matter of crowd in consequence of rain
deluging the country for miles around. I'm
deferred by the rain and mud, however, from
1900 to 2, 800 of both parties gathered around
the stand in the Courthouse yard, from
which the orators spoke. EVERYTHING in the
way of preliminary demonstration was dis,
pensed with, the meeting assembling without
the aid of procession or brass band. The
only decorations were Garfield and Arthur
banner flying from the Club headquar-
tiers near by, and another, bearing the
names of the Democratic nominees, stretched
across the street from the Courthouse to a
hotel. DIR. X. j. Ham, Mayor of South
Bend, introduced Mr.. Landers, who, in an
hours speech, proceeded to the arraignment
of the Republican party, State and National.
When he had concluded, Hon. Lucius Hub
bard presented Mr.. Porter in brief speech
and be in speech of an hour and a half's
duration, discussed the issues between the
Republican and Democratic parties in Indi-
ana and the United States. According to
arrangement Mr. Lander closed the argu-
ment in a half-hour speech. Both speakers
were frequently interrupted by applause,
which was about equally divided, as the
crowd seemed to be.
General weaver and Mis 'welI.Defned
Party"
PORTLAND tMe.). September 2d.-In an
interview to-day, General Weaver, Presi-
Dental Greenbacl candidate, said: "There
is no fusion on the State ticket in Maine. If

Greenback victory, wholly without Demo-

of the Electoral ticket with my consent)

or with the Republicans in West Virginia
Should anything of the kind be attempted in
any State Of this Union it will meet my en-

The California Foreign Trade-shippiug
Prospects.
NEW York, September 2i.-The Times,
reviewing the shipping prospects, and par
ticularly the California foreign trade, Gays ::
" IL California farmers are TO get their grain
to market, they must hold out inducements
sufficient TO call to their port from 200 to 300
more vessels than visited it last year. 1t ID
this fact that has forced up the rates of
freight, and Is likely to force them up still
higher before the opening of next year, and
taking into account the probable price OF
wheat in England, the chances of profit to
California farmers are not encouraging. 1t
is reasonable to suppose that scores of Ameri-
can grain.carrying ships will, during ths
coming season, net handsome profit to their
owners" Tie article concludes: Taking
all the circumstances together, our American
ship owners would not be greatly out of the
way if they anticipate a higher average of
freight rates during the next twelve months
than in any similar period within the last de-
cade."
