Glass Manufacturers WIN Not Compromise

PITTsBURG, Nov. 6.-The conference next
Thursday between the glass manufacturers
and employees, for the purpose of con-
sidering the existing wage diff
culties, is quite improbable, as Secretary
Loeffier of the Western Window-glass As
sociation says that manufacturers while
perfectly willing to confer with the strikers,
cannot do so until their regular meeting
next Monday, and under no circumstances
will they compromise.

Ben. Butler Defeated by a Majority of Not
Less than Nine Thousand.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
BosToN, Nov. 6.-In an unprecedentedly
large vote the auti-Butler men elect their
candidate Robinson, by about 5000 MAORI
ty. Returns from 900 towns and cities give
Robinson 129, 555, Butler 2,6O6 The total
vote will probably reach 100000. In this city
the Governor had a lead of 6511, instead of
the 13 900 he had year ago. Even in his
own city, Lowell, he lost 800; in Essex coun-
ty, his old stronghold, there were very

ing gain of 10. There were terrible "set
backs to the General in other cities. Somer-
vile lost him 1000; Little Chelsea shows
Robinson gain of 400, and in Cam
bridge Butler lost nearly 900. The
cities which did not weaken" are
few, but in certain manufacturing towns
the Governor more than hold his own. 1t
must not be inferred from this showing that
Butler did not increase largely his total vote.
In the cities he gained 6, 1O2 over last year,
but Robinson gained 0,456 over Bishops
record in these cities. Buffers supporters
are thoroughly chagrined over the bad show
ing of Boston. With their great registra-
ton, at least the majority of last year for
the General was expected. Had he even
touched 10000, which many Republicans
were inclined to concede yesterday "the old
man" would have gone in again.
At his home in Lowell the Governor ac-
cepts the verdict with his accustomed phi
losophy. Money bags will be charged
with the result, so far as Boston and the
cities generally are concerned, but
the truth is the business men,
irrespective of party, rallied to beat Butler,
and created genuine war time" enthusiasm

A Heavy Drop for the Democracy.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal
NEW York, Nov. 6.-The election in this
State closed with doubt as to the result on
the highest office to be filled, that of Secre-
retary of State, owing to the introduction of
the liquor question into the canvass in the
last days of the campaign. 1t was deemed
possible early this evening that the great up
heaval Democratic majority of nearly 200, 900
would drop to nothing or lower, on the head
of the ticket, so bitterly and actively had the
-prohibitionists worked against Maynard,
the Democratic nominee His record as
legislator made him a strong advocate of high
and restricted license, and but
for this disturbance of normal
conditions, the Democrats would
have counted, in this of-year contest, an
average majority of 10000 to 10000. The
outlook at 10 o'clock is that these figures are
about right for the ticket excepting the State
Secretaryship. 1t is almost as certain that
Maynard is safe. The movement against
him has been exceedingly damaging to his
vote in this and some of the other cities, but
in the rural counties he has gained by il.
The fact that his opponent, General Carr, is
an Irishman and a Catholic has also served to
disorder the vote to some extent. Maynard
runs 10000 to $1,000 behind the rest of his
ticket in this city. That the average major
ity in the State will be less than %, 900. how
ever, is impossible The polling in the me-
tropolis has been without disturbing Incl
dent, not an instance of disorder having been
observed. Reilly, the Democratic nominee
for Register, is elected by at least 49, 900 over
Hess, Republican, the bolting Democrat
James O'Brien, having drawn away not more
than 10000 votes In Brooklyn, the result
of the mayoralty struggle will not be known
until tomorrow morning.

The London st. James Gazette, in a

America, after all, is unable to make
good her claim to the possession of the
tallest and largest tree IN the world.
Every one has read of the marvels
of the Yosemite Valley and Of
Yellowstone Park, the huge ma
tional sporting ground of the United
States. But what are the giants Of CAL
ifornia in comparison with tree which
has lately been discovered in Australia?
It has long been known that in Tasmania
there are. .eucalypi measuring 200 feet
from the ground to the first branch, and
more than $50 feet in total height; and
there is, or lately was on Mount WASH
inaton, near Hobart Town, tree of
this species the trunk of which was
eighty-six feet in circumference. But a
still more gigantic monarch Of the woods
has been recently discovered in Victoria.

SPARED of having the race, on account
of the high wind that prevailed all day.

kept q length ahead through the first
mile, rowing 81 strokes to Ross 80. At
the l2-mile flag, Hanlan stopped rowing
and then made % strokes to Ross %,
and soon was three lengths ahead. Han
Ian made the turn in 7 minutes, twelve
lengths ahead of Ross. On the third
mile Hanlan slowed up and took drink
of water. In response to cheer from
