A DRAMATIC INCIDENT,
Meeting OF Two Men, One OF Whom was
u0stRge for the Other In the Wnr.

AostRge iOr Inc Other In the War.
WASHINGTON, September 10.-The fol-
lowing incident is related Of Emil Frey,
the new Swiss Minister here, who WINS
Captain Of the Eighty.second Illinois
Volunteers during our war. The new Swiss
Minister recently arrived in this city, Mr..
Emil Frey, was confined in Libby
Prison ut one time, it will be
remembered, as hostage for the
Confederate Captain W. J. Gordon,
condemned to death by Federal
court martial. President Lincoln, upon
being so Informed, stayed the execution Of
Gordon, and the then Capt. Frey, Of the
SD Illinois Volunteers, now the first Min.
lister Plenipotcntiary from Switzerland to
the United States, virtually saved Gordon's s
lite, who was soon after sent to Richmond
by Il fling OF truce, md in return CAPTAIN
Frey was released. This morning Can't.
Gordon, who is sojourning in this CITY,
called on Minister Frey, and the two saw
each other for the first time. As may be
we'll supposed the meeting was highly inter.
esting to both, and to all who CHANGED TO be
present. There was n mutual interchange
Of experiences during the prison life Of
each, and recital Of the fearful suspense
both were subjected to for time. They
separated, evidently highly gratified 10
have personally met each other after nm
interval Of seventeen years, when the life
OF one depended on that Of the other, and
under circumstances so changed. --
MIR. Frey, on his return to Switzerland,
WAS compelled TO renaturalize himself,
which he did, 10 become President Of the
Swiss Council. He is also major general
in the Swiss army, - : :

RocIIEsrEI:, September l9.-Dr. Lewis
Swift, director oi the Warner Observatory
is receiving messages from all parts oI
America claiming the discovery OF a large
naked.eye comet, now visible, near the
sun. The Doctor says it is the same comet
recently discovered in South America, and
is moving west. 1t is not the comet OF
1872, nor is it identical with any known
comet. I--s-' (.
WASHINGTON, September l9.-The new
comet watched at the Naval observatory
this afternoon was found in the right as.
cension II hours, 10 minutes, 32 sec.
onds: declination l2 minutes north.
The comet was easily seen with the
naked eye and exhibited short tail with
Il bright head OF considerable, extent. In
the tclescopethe nucleus showc, Il confused
mass OF bright light, indicating Il large
comet with plenty Of loose ma.
tcrial. Extending on both sides
were bright arcs OF light presenting the
appearance OF II bird with outstretchei
wings. The comet WIS seen ut Nice, France
about noon September is. 1t is almost
certain the comet has now passed
its perihclion. The comet today at
5 o'clock was nine degrees west Of the
sun and will probably have increased this
distance by sunrise on the Goth to twelve
or thirteen degrees. 1t 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 be.
fore sunrise. In Il few days, however, at
IFS present rate and direction of motion, it
should become'a brilliant object in the
morning sky.
On the whole this may be regarded MS
one OF the most extraordinary comets oi
modern times. The only one which re.
sembles ii in its special features OF interest
is the great comet OF 1913, which
like this one, was visible to the mixed eve
in full sunlight. Darnard's comet was also
observed at the naval Observatory

SARATOGA, September l0.-The Cornell

Governor Cornell proilted by most Of the
delegate elections last week. His actual
vote ran up so rapidly that his friends 10.
ward the last Of the week sangninely' pre-,
dicted his nomination on the first ballot.
That would be repetition OF his expert.
ence at the Republican State Convention
Of 1870. a closer examination Of their list
Of delegates by Mr.. Cornell's lieutenants
has convinced them that they have not yet
obtained enough delegates for him to repeat
his swift success Of 1870. Accordingly thcy
are busy contriving means TO increase bis
vote. They are also periectipg an alliance
with the supporters ofJames W. Wadsworlh
for the control Of the convention. The lirst
fruits Of this alliance can DO perceived
in the election Of Wadsworth Congressional
delegates and Cornell delegates in Ontario
county yesterday. 1t had the effect OF de.
priving Mr.. Folger Of the vote OF his home
county. The news Of Mr.. Cornell's success
caused considerable CONSERVATION among
the Administration leaders here last night,
they perceiving that during the coming
three days the argument will be constantly
used that Mr.. Folgcr, although n, popular
man among his neighbors, as shown BY
repeated elections to the Legislature, was
not able TO gain that support after the an.
noupcement that he was candidate OF

bccretnry Tcller's Complete Politica
Victory In Colorado.

Secretary Tclier'x Complete Political
Victory In Colorado.
WASHINGTON, September 1O.-The only
member Of the Cabinet now in tho city ID
Secretary Teller, Of the Interior Depart
mcnt, who returned week ago from Col
orado, where for month past lus ragged u.
fierce campaign as ever enlivened o
Western population. Secretary Teller
since his return, has kept himself at work
in his private room, endeavoring TO catch
up with correspondence that had
accumulated in his absence. The
impression growing out Of this
seclusion was that he had been worsted in
his canvass, and this was heightened by
the circumstance that he had left the State
previous to the convention. But It appears
from the telegaams and mail accounts OF
tnis ailair TINT the secretary's forces were
more than successful in the Colorado con.
vention. The opposition was absolutely
and utterly wiped out alter a struggle SO
slight us to have caused surprise even to
the victors. The question presented and
fought upon was essentially whether the
Republicans OF the State should sup.
port or antagonize the alminis,ra.
ton for which Secretary Teller
stands rs the leading Western repre-
sentative. The Secretary remained in the
State long enough to know that the large
majority Of delegates in the convention
were administration men, and then ad.
roitly forestalled everything Ikea charge Of
bossism by coming East and letting things
take their natural course. The victory is
quite an important one for the administra.
ton, and personally for Mr.. Teller, since
the opposition included not only all OF Mr..
Tellcr's personal and political enemies,
and all the Anti-Administration Repub.
licans. but WIS headed by wealthy men,
who disbursetl freely and had the support
OF the entire Democratic press Of the State.
