Especial Telegram to the Globe

ALBANY, N. Y, Aug, THE announce
ment that Cleveland would start on his
vacation drew large number of visitors to
the capital to-day. The governor was in
good spirits, and was engaged most of the
time during the forenoon in shaking hands
with friends who came to wish him a pleas
ant and healthful time. Among the promi-
nent callers were Mrs. Arthur jenkins, of
the Syracuse Herald, and Carter H. Harrison,
mayor of Chicago.
MIR. Harrison was asked if his interview
with Gov. Cleveland and Dan Manning had
been satisfactory. His reply was: ooh, yes,
moderately 500 This was all the Demo-
cratic candidate for governor of Illinois
would say. He will leave for New York this
evening.
Gen. Buffers determination to run on the
Greenback and anti-monoply tickets is a
lively topic of discussion to-day. The work
ingmen take keen interest in the an
nouncement. Cleveland clubs, consisting
largely of trades unions, have already been
formed in the city, but the. unions have
taken no official action in regard to the cam
paign. Some curiosity is expressed as to
the effect Gen. Buffers candidacy will have
upon them.
AS telegraphed yesterday the Buffalo scan
dial is not to be allowed to run uncontra-
dicted. There is the best of authority for de-
claring that a statement of the true facts in
the case will be given to the public in a few
days. Maria Holpen is reported to have
been here for two weeks, and it is probable
that the statement will embrace her
affidavit, denying most of the charges
published in Buffalo. Henry Ward Beecher's
position is said to have convinced the Cleve-
land managers of the necessity for an auth
orative contradiction of the story. Mr.
Beecher's more recent declaration that he
looks upon it as a malicious calumny and
will take the step for Cleveland, gives salts
faction to local Democrats. They are con-
fident that the promised statement will
effectually dispose Of the scandal
and by expressing the motives of those
who are circulating it insure more hearty
enthusiasm for Cleveland than existed prior
to its publication.
Gov. Cleveland, accompanied by DR.. Ward,
his personal friend and physician, left by the
Delaware 81 Hudson for the upper Saranac
lakes at 1:15. There was no demonstration,
very few people being at the depot.
AT WHITEHALL.
WHITEHALL, n. Y. Aug. AT Whitehall
a crowd assembled at the depot to greet Gov
Cleveland ON his way to the Adirondacks.
The Governor came out On the platform of
the car and was introduced by Mr.. Wilkins,
of the Whitehall Times. The train halted but
a moment, but many in that time shook
hands with him and wished him pleasant
trip and success in November. Many ladies
were present.
AT PLATTsRURG.
PLATTsBURG, N. Y, Aug 7-Gov. Cleve-
land arrived here this evening. No definite
public notice had been given of his move
ments, but during the afternoon the rumor
that he was expected got afoat, and when
the train pulled in at $50 p. m., CROWD of
several thousand had assembled at the depot
As the governor made his way to the car
rage through the throng, he was repeatedly
cheered. The governor will remain here
over night as guest of Smith NJ. Weed, and
Tomorrow morning will leave by special for
Lyon mountains and Chateanaxa lake, halt
ing on the way at the Stanton prison. Sat
urday he will proceed to Prospect house at
the head of upper Saranac lake, where he
will probably remain two weeks.
