TONS OF FISH
Floating Dead in the River and Poison
ing the Water.

PITTSBURGH, Penn, June 26.-Oue
OF the most remarkable sights to be wit
messed in Western Pennsylvania is at
present attracting the attention Of dwell
ers along the Youghiogheny. The river
between McKeesport and Bradford is
filled with dead fish Of all kinds and sizes.
This is one OF the stretches heavily
stocked at Government expense few
years since, and attained prominence as
the resort OF anglers. Captain Markalc,
resident OF West Newton, said t.
morning; "Ihere is an almost iucredi-
bic number Of dead fish floating past.
Il was first noticed Monday evening last,
and has continued ever since lie b.
licyes that i've tons have gone down the
river in the past tWeuty-iour hours The
cause Is attributed TO heavy flow Of
sulphur water from the numerous coal
mines recently opened along the banks Of
the river, In addition TO the destruction
OF the fish the city OF McKeesport draws
its water supply from the Youghiogheny
River, and while the impurities are not at
all pleasant to contemplate, much alarm
exists in regard to large quantities of de.
caying animal matter impregnating the
stream.

Emphatic Contradiction Of a Canard.
HR DOES NOT DOUBT THAT rHs REPUBLICAN NOMINEE
WILL BE ELECTED.

New York Herald Correspondence
WASHINGTON, May g. lSS4-The Indifference OF
MI Blaine concerning his nomination at Chicago
mas lor some time been the cause or great anxiety
10 his enthusiastic supporters He has been asked
10 take the held in person and urged TO do so be-
cause IL was believed his presence at Chicago
Would make success more certain. To the surprise
and disgust OF his ardent advocates Mr.. Blaine has
frankly declared on the eve OF the assembling OF the
convention that he has mo desire for an empty
hohor, and ne is reported as saying that in his
opinion "the republican nominee, whoever he may
De, cannot possibly be elected this year"
POLITICAL REvULSIoN PREDICTED.
he points TO the uncertainty OF our financial mar
ket as certain TO cause political reyulSiou. and
whether from apathy on the part OF the mass OF
the republican voters or the phenomenal popu-
larlty OF the expected nominee OF the democra,i ic
convention, referring TO Mr. Tlden, The result WILL
In his opinion, be the same to the republican
nominee.
SOUR GRAPES.
While the judgment OF Mr.. Blaine is not ques-
TONED by some or his republican friends, Others
declare that ii is the old story the fox and sour
grapes Mr.. Blaine Is reported as not deSrous Of
taking any risks
BRANDED AS SELFISH
The attacks already made upon him. in his opin-
Ion, are bnt as the hiring or the picket guard OF
lentleSS enemies. TO further suffer attack without
the hope OF vndication by election is. In his cpn-
Ion, too great sacrifice. and hence what has hlth-
erto been called indifference Is now called selfish
Ness by those who still think his name would be a
power In the coming presidential campaign.
