COMMANDS OF GOTHAM
The Annual Clambaks of New
YOrk's Heavy Weights.
An Organization Whose Officers are Elected
by Weight-The Viands Prepared for
the Occasion.

New York, August 27.-The fourteenth
annual clambake of the Fat Mems Associs-
ticn will take place on Thursday next, the
3Oth inst, at Dorlon Point, the home Of
the association. There will not be steamer
chartered as heretofore to convey members
residing in this city to the bake and the
heavier men are forced to negotiate with
railroad officials for separate platform cars
TO take them thither by rail.
According to the bylaws of the Associa-
ton the officers are
Elected by Weight
at each annual reunion, the heaviest man
being president, and so on down to the
humblest office in the gift OF the club. On
this account there is little change from
year to year in the officers, few leviathans
so far outweighing the other members that
they have practically monopoly OF the
offices However during the last few years

The bake will open at , o'clock in the
afternoon, and is to consist of 1000 ears OF
corn, Coo pounds OF lobster, 600 pounds OF

bake the Fat Mems quadrille will be
danced in an adjoining pavilion, followed
by trials in high kicking. AS each of the
l25 members of the organization must have
weighed 200 pounds or over to join the
club, the running races and wrestling
matches to come Off will be unusually un-
interesting. About fifteen hundred per-
sons are expected to be present to enjoy
the feast and watch the antics OF the fat
men, each one of whom will be compelled
to weigh before and after eating.

or the opposition. One Republican, and

The Faction Fight Among West Virginia
Republicans - The Ohio Cam
paign - Both Parties
Hard at Work.

WASHINGTON, August g.-The Gazette,
Republican, comes out in double-leaded
editorial which handles Secretary Folger
in an unmerciful manner. After saying
that the charges which it has repeatedly
made against Secretary Folger should con-
vince even his best friends that he is in
every way untitled for the occupancy OF
his great office, it proceeds to reiterate those
charges as follows:
That the charges are enormous this
journal is willing TO admit; that they are
true it emphatically ressserts.
Itmay be as well to restate the charges,
and
First-That he is mentally and physically
incapable Of properly exercising the tuuc-
tions of Secretary Of the Treasury.
Second-That, Immediately on occupy
ing the Office of Secretary of the Treasury,
he BETRAYED his political friends and party
by close affihation with John Sherman.
Third-That instead of changing the per-
sonnel and methods Of the
Corrupt Administration
of the Treasury Department by sherman,
he continued both, to the incalculable In
Jury of the country and the Republican
party.
Fourth-Tbat early in his administration
he became acquainted with the vicious
and plunderiug purposes of the league OF
officials in the Treasury ring, and identl'
fed himself with those purposes.
Fiith-That he has, on all OCCASIONS
sought to render the
Investigation of Charges
AGAINST subordinate officials Of the Treasury
department futile.
Sixth-ThaG he is notoriously immoral in
his intercourse with women. These are
the charges without details. The detail:
and proofs, however, can be produced.
Charles J. FOlger is responsible for the
State of New York being Democratic to
day, and next to Chester A. Arthur, he
more than any other man, will be response
