over the South Carolina Mackey.
Dibble contested election case.
The majority report of the elections
committee recommends the seating
of Mackey, the committee having be-
come fully convinced that he was
elected by clear majority of nearly
700 votes, and that a gross and palpa-
bic fraud has been perpetrated in CIV

ceeded in staving off final action in
the House by filllbustering motions,
and all legislation is blocked. There.

SYRACUSE has 'EM TOO.
That Bob-Talled Comet,

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The comet was
watched at the naval observatory this eve
ming and found to be in right ascension,
II hours, 10 min., 80 sec.; declination II
min. north. The comet is easily seen with
the naked eye. 1t exhibited short tail with
a bright head of considerable extent. In a
telescope the nucleus shows confused mass
of bright light, indicating q large comet with
plenty of loose material. Extending on both
sides we're bright areas of light, presenting g
the appearance of bird with outstretcbed
wings. The comet was seen at Nice, France,
about noon, Sept. IL. It is almost certain
that the comet has now passed its perihelion.
The comet to-day at 3, was 8 degrees west Of
the sun, and will probably have increased
this distance by sunrise Of the Goth, by II to
13 degrees. It will therefore rise somewhat
before the sun, but owing to the fact that it
is also further south than the sun it will
not be readily seen before sunrise. In a few
days, ,!however, with its present rate end direc-
ton of motion, it should become brilliant
object in the morning sky. On the whole
this may be regarded as one of the most ex-
traordinary comets oil modern tunes. The
only one which resembles it in it's special tea
lures of interest is the great comet of 1843,
which, like this one, was visible to the naked
eye in full sunlight.

MILWAUKEE, Sept. 19.-The fourteenth an

campfire in exposition building, given under
the auspices OF the grand army
of the republic. During the day numerous
members of tho society arrived in bodies and
singly and all the hotels and boarding houses
are crowded. President Arthur's visit, which
had been announced did net occur, and up to
a late hour tonight General Grant, who
promised to be present had not arrived.
Generals Sherman and Sheridan will arrive
tomorrow. The exercises opened with pa
triotic airs by Fife Major Robinson and
Handershot, drummer boy Of the Rappahan-
mock. Gen. Hobart then delivered brief
address of welcome to the visitors, who filled
all parts of the building, at least 1000 peo-
pie being present on the occasion. Addresses
were delivered by Gen. John Gibbon, the dis
tinguished commander of the iron brigade,
Judge Fearer, of New Orleans, Gov. Rusk,
of Wisconsin, Ex- Gov. Fairchild, Gen. Coch-
rane, of Ohio, and others. The exercises
closed with sold Hundred" sung in congre-
gational style.

and it is believed an attempt will be made to
induce both candidates to withdraw. This,
however, it is believed will be no easy trick.
In an interview 1t Monroe after his nomlna-
ton. George G. Hazelton said: t'Those who
stand upon the right need not fear. We
stand upon the right. shall make the can
vass just as if nothing had occurred. shall

Col. Keyes refused to talk with an interview
or as to whether he could be induced to
withdraw in case Hazleton did, but the best
Judgment is that he means to fight it out.
The committee, it is understood, will also
consider the situation in the second district,
the question being whether the republi Leans
shall aid Gen. Bragg either by nominating
him or by failing to nominate anybody in
case he shall run as an independent candl-
date. It is also believed that the prohibitory
question and the proper position of the re-
publican party of this state toward that
question will come up for conside ration.

Payne in Court.

DALLAS, Tex, Sept. 22.-Capt. Payne, of
Oklahoma notoriety, who was arrested Aug.
Goth as trespasser on Indian territory, and
who has been in custody at Fort Reno, passed
through here to-day for Fort Smith, Ark,
where he will be tried in the federal court.
Payne is accompanied by his wife and child
and eleven followers, in charge of Lieut..
Taylor and squad of soldiers of the Ninth
cavalry. Payne refused to cross the territory
eastward with Lieut. Taylor, on the ground
that he feared a lynching by Indians: He
was therefore brought south by railroad.
When they reached Henrietta, Tex, yester
day, Payne sued out a writ of habsas corpus
for himself and his followers in the. district
court, but Lieut.. Taylor refused to recognize
it, whereupon warrant was issued for the
arrest of Taylor himself. This was also re-
sisted, the civil officers not being permitted
to enter the car. The affair created quite
commotion in Henrietta. Payne talked
freely with reporters here, saying he has no
fears of the result, and that all he asks is to
get his case fairly in court. He is satisfied
It will be decided in his favor.

their lives for Arab and Abdella. The latter

but for their religion, their country. and
Caliph, and they should be ready, he said, to
die as he was. The soldiers replied, '.Then

the lost steamer Asia, returned to-day,
bringing the body of Capt. Savage, McDon-
aid; first mate John Little, Sault Ste Marie;
John McApine, Georgian Bay; and an un-
known man. An interview with the rescued
man Tinkios elicits little in addition to the
reports already published at the time OF the
miles from land. A heavy sea struck the
vessel and sent her over on her side. Boats
were cut from the davitts of the vessel,
which Immediately went down and showed
off. The upper decks floated after the hull
sank. One after another the occupants of
the boats were either washed overheard by
heavy sea, or died from exhaustion.
WAUBAsHEEN, Ont, Sept. 19.-The body OF
Robert Sparks, land surveyor of Ottawa, has
been recovered. He is thought to have been
passenger on the lost steamer Asia.
