Mr.. THOMAS NJ. MARSHALL denies
that he used the expression Don Cam.
eron's marionette =" in speaking of Gen.
Beaver to nice-looking young man
who went straight off and printed every
thing he said in New York paper. He,
however, admits the substantial accu.
racy of the interview as published. We
observe that the Stalwart candidate fo:
congressman-at-large, in his speechmak-
ing in the western part of the state, is
industriously working the "Cameron
tariff racket" by which it is hoped to
divert the people from the real issue Of
the present campaign. 1t is not, there
fore, improbable that the nice-looking
young man simply got his tricks little
mixed when he reported Mr.. Marshall
to have said Beaver was DOn'S "ma-
rionette," and that the old gentleman
was alluding to the tail of the ticket in
stead of the head when he used the term.
The similarity in the sound of the words
''marionette" and marriott lends color
to this very natural presumption, and
anyone who reads the accounts of Mr..
Brosius' recent speeches will he con-
firmed in the opinion that the reporter
fell into error in applying the expression
to Beaver instead of to Brosius, as Mar
shall obviously intended it for the latter.
Cameron pulls the tariff string, and the
marionette promptly obeys the signal
just as he did at Kittanning last night
for the amusement of his audience.

CAMERON's man for state senator in
the 42d allegheny district apparently
escaped the Independent flood at the re-
cent primaries, but the independent Re
publicans openly declared that though
Mcneil had received the regular nomi-
nation he shall never go back to Harris
burg to vote for Don Cameron's return
to the Senate. And they are strong
enough in the district to carry out this
purpose. without regard to what the
Democrats may do. In the 44th pitts
burgh) district, Major Aull, the regular
nominee, has always been a pronounced
anti Cameron man, and his nomination
is said to be entirely satisfactory to the
Independents. This was the only one of

the Alaska fur company, of San Francisco,
had presented him with considerable lot
of fur clothing, and the supplies of furs
which were gathered by Captain Howgate
of the signal service, in an expedition
made for the purpose BY tho schooner
Florence, from New London, were also
given to De Long.
Engineer Melville received grand Ova-
tion at the city hall. In the afternoon the
common council having rendered him the
hospitality of the city and the use OF the
governors room for public reception,
the national and municipal flags were dis.
played on the building in his honor. When
Engineer Melville and Mr.. NOros, one Of
his companions, were driven up to the city
hall they were loudly cheercd and were
received in the governors room by Alder
man Brady, McClave and Roosevelt, OF
the aldermanic committee. A moment
later Melville cspied an old friend, Chief
Engineer Danby, U. s. N, and rushing
up to him both remained a few seconds
clased in each others arms, Melville kiss
ing his old friend again and again on the
cheek. Between fifteen hundred and two
thousand citizens paid their respects to
Mr.. Melville, who shook hands warmly
with each visitor. After the levee Mel
vile returned to his hotel.
In the evening Engineer Melville ant
his companions were given dinner al
Delmonico's. A number of prominent
people were present. Tho menu was ar
exceedingly elegant one.
Chief Engineer Melville, of the ill-fated
Jeanette Arctic expedition, after more

THE JEANETTE HEROES.

Tneir Great Ovation in New York City.
1t was scarcely daybreak when Chief
Engineer Melville and his companions,
NorOs and Nindermann, left their apart.
ments in the Hoffman house aud took i
stroll down Broadway. The streets were
very quiet, almost deserted, and they had
full leisure to see the great improvements
that had taken place during their absence.
They were highly delighted with all they
saw, and did not return to the hotel
for breakfast until nearly nine O'Clock.
Upon leaving the breakfast room at a quar-
ter to ten tho three heroes found them
selves bcsieged by an army Of friends and
admirers, not the smaller fraction of whom
belonged to the gentIer sex. AT one mo-
ment the lobby of the hotel was literally
crowded with fashionably -attircd ladies of
all ages, who had come to pay their res
poets to the survivors, and the cards sent
up in the course of the morning to their
rooms must have filled good sized waste
basket. To satisfy everybody the engineer
finally held an informal reception in one
OF the parlors of the hotel. His appear
ance and that of his friends were highly
satisfactory. They were the very
picture of health, no traces Of the hard
ships they had undergone being visible.
To a reporter who seized Al opportunity
during lull in the congratulations and
handshakings with which the trio were
being bOnbarded to interview him, Mr..
Melville said !: 81 never felt happier than
this morning when strolled around the
city and saw the many places so familiar
to me. You may not know, perhaps, that
l an "a New Yorker of New Workers. l
was born and bred in the Ninth ward, and
r.:
acquaintances there"
Melville spoke highly Of his treatment
by the Russian authorities, say ing, among
othei things, that even the lower officials
distinguished themselves by their courtesy
and refinement. The feeling for Americans
among the Russian lower classes seemed
to be very warm, and far different to that
entertained towards the English. Mel
vile and his companions had brought over
many little presents and mementOes re-
ceived from their Russian admirers. In
regard to tho causes which led to the
disaster to the Jeanette Mr.. Melville
would say nothing. CAN have to make

which understand is shortly to be ap-
pointed. To them I will open nv soul

subject in any manner at present would
be unseemly, if not actually indecorous.
Ninderman said to J. c.. Morrison, of
No. 8G South street, who shipped him on
the Jeanette, that the only way he &C

Captain Dc Long was found his feet were
covered with canvas cloth. il that the
boots of the party had all been eaten. Tho
sleeping bags were also frozen and as to
fur clothing they had none. Mr.. Morrison
says that he is astonished that there was
no fur clothing, as De Long told him that

MARONE.s ALLEGED BRIBERY,

The Strong Charges Made BY . Coloroti Or.
atOr In DezenLOrf's District.
Considerable lutter was caused in Goa
litiou political circles in Virginia by the
publication of letter by Col. ]. W. WOltz
y Republican, in which it is alleged that
the Mahoneites il Congressman Dezsn-
DORIS district have recently ondeavOred
to bribe w. B. Laws, a colored
man, who has been making q bold
and vigorous canvass in that district
against Mahone's party. In letter dated
Washington, September 6, Laws says that
Malone managers at Norfolk made an
agreement to pay him $500 to retire from
the canvass and not offer any opposition
to their candidate for Congress in that
district. Laws alleges that $500 of this
amount was paid him, $1OO in cash and
a check for 500 on the Home savings
bank, of Norfolk. This check was CASH
ed by the Washington bank. of WASH
ington. The other $500 was to be paid
before tho election. WOltz, in his letter,
says he advised Laws to accept this money
in order to entrap the bribers. He followed
the advice and took the money. The check
given him and the correspondence between
Laws and Judge Brook, of Norfolk. ono Of
the coalition leaders, is referred to as evil
dence of the payment of the money. It is
also alleged by WOltz and Laws that
Peter J. Carter, u prominent cOlOred Ma
honeite in Dezendorfs district, declared
to them that it was Mahone's intention
to elect his candidate in that district,
and if they cannot succeed in
any other way that will count their man
in. The coalition have control of nearly
all of the election machinery in tho cOun-
ties and cities composing DezendOrf's
district, and it is in their power to carry
out tho threat attributed to them by these
men. Laws, who entrapped the coalitiOnists
by accepting their alleged bribes. is an in.
telligent colorcd man, who has made him
self exceedingly troublesome to Malone by
his vigorous denuncjatiOns of tho senator
on the stump in the Norfolk and other
districts in tho state. WOltz is tho clerk
removed from . government position in
Washington by Malone because of his ap-
position to candidate selected by Mahoue
in the First district.

The Fric:ids Of a Murderer Capture y Train
amt XIII Two Sherlis.
John Taylor two years ago killed Capt.
Fletcher On the Tennessee. He escaped,
but was finally captured and brought to
Chattanooga. He had several trials, and
at the last term of court was sentenced to
ten years hard labor in the penitentiary.
He appealed to the supreme court, which
is in session at Knoxville, and the case
was to come up Thursday at noon. Sheriff
Cate and Deputy Conway took the East
Tennessee train with Taylor, who was
handcuffed. Several men boarded the
train at Sweetwatcr or Philadelphia,
about seventy five miles from Chattanooga
and while the train was between there and
LOudOn deliberately shot Cate and Con
way dead and wounded another man.
They then released the prisoner and took
charge OF the train, running it through
Lou,lOn, and at Lenoir's station John Tay-
lor and his brothers, Bob and Andy, got
off, aud folcibly taking some horses left
for the mountains. John Taylor was
wounded in the arm.
Chattanooga is in intense excitement.
A posse of thirty men with Springfield
rifles left on special train on the Cincin-
natl Southern for Kingston. Another
posse will leave overland. A posse has
already left Kingston and another from
London. Cate was sheriff two weeks.
He was one of the most popular men in
the city, was about fifty years old and
leaves large family. Conway was about
thirty and was prominent in local politics.
Such excitement has not been seen in
Chattanooga since the war. The shooting

TIE international rifle match began
at Creedm0or yesterday, and the result
of the first days contest will be- u t6e the
nature of a surprise ts.a t. good many peo-
pie who -PPs,sS6nesied that our British
Cousins would have an overwhelming
victory. To he only nineteen points be-
hind in Il total of something over a
thousand is far from fatal to the Ameri-
can team, and, though stern chase is a
long one, there is an immense amount of
stimulus, to mon Of proper stuff, in the
feeling that they have something to
overcome. Our marksmen are repre-
sented rs c0ntending against the disad-
vantage of being obliged to use a sight -
with which they are unfamiliar, and
considering their lack of practice with
the novel appliance that has been intro.
duced in the present contest, they arc
not without cause for congratulating
themselves upon the excellent score that
they have made. We do not make much
account Of the additional point that is
urged to show why the BritOns
should have come out ahead, which
is that there wasa high wind to help the
visitors along the natural supposition
would be that this circumstance would
operate substantially the same on both
sides. If it is true that the American
team is deficient in men who have had
experience in long range shooting there
is a likelihood that the strangers may
maintain the very slight lead they gained
1t the outset Of the contest while on
the other hand the American faculty for
doing good work under unpromising cir
cumstances is worth sting in this affair
as in all others, and it justifes hope
for better showing tonight than that
which is published this morning.
