AN ALLEGED SCHEME.

BuLcombe' Address by the Chairman of n
Democratic Committee.
New York, Nov. 9-Headqualt tere
Democratic State Committee, Hoffman
House, New York, Nov. 9. leS4-We
deem it our duty to announce to the
people Of the state that the republican
managers have, within the last forty
elght hours, conceived now scheme tor
throwing again into dispute the result OF
the election in our etate. For many days
after the election tho entire committee,
in bad faith, claimed for the republican
candidate several states which they know
they had not carried. In the same bad
faith, when every source OF information.
including the associated press. has DEM
onstrated that the vote Of New York has
been given to the Cleveland electors,
they still claim the state. No fact Of
history ISL now better known than that
the result OF the election. as ascertaineui,
declared and certified by the election Of
ticers, and OF public record throughout
tue state. gives New York to the Cleve-
land electors by decisive plurality
These public certified returns have been
sifted in the several counties by both
parties, with the most conscientious
care during the last four days, until
every possible doubt as to the result
has been removed. Knowing this fact,
they now propose, as lest desperate
resort, to make boards OF county can.
vassers throughout the state, where con.
trolled by them, 80 many returning
boards, after the pattern Of those not
long since used by them in the southern
states. Wherever boards fail them, ju-
dleial orders are to be applied for. Thus
relying on the partisanship of the boards
! in the first place, aud judges of their
Town political faith in the second, they
intend and expect to throw again into
dispute the result of the election, and
involve it in intermlnable litigation
70 THE end printed papers have been
sent them to their agents and repre-.
sentatives in every county in the state OF
New York, to be used with the courts
whenever an occasion can be manufac.
tured. OF the entire reliability of our
Information az to this scheme, thcre.can
be no question. We call on representa-
tives Of the party 10 the various coun.
ties OF this state to ba alert, and by
| every proper method to resist and defeat
this last desperate device. Mindful OF
| the grave consequences to the business
interests OF our state which such con.
spiracy necessarily involves, We deem il
our duty to assure our people, who have
now generally acquiesced In the result
that they may confidently rely that by DO
such scheme or device will the state be
deprived Of the result of their deliberate
choice. 1t may disturb and protract the
determination; it will not change the re-
suit. Signed w. E. SAITH,
Chairman Executive Committee.

New York, Nov. l2~The Mail and
Express this afternoon says the official
canvass Of votes in this state continues.
Il is nov generally conceded that the
vote ct the counties above Harlem
bridge cannot be changed to effect
Cleveland's plurality; an accidental
error may entirely wipe out the plurality,
and on this alone are based the hopes OF
the republicans. At midnight forty OF
the sixty counties, officially canvassed.
gave Cleveland net gain of thirty three.
leaving his plurality at 1925 according
to democratic claims.
This practically ends any probability
OF any serious increase to Blaine's rural
plural,ties, although it is fair to bear in
mind that where gains are expected the
canvass is delayed and case may yet
be presented in eight or ten counties
where case has been made up. The
real fight is in this city and the republi.
cans hopes were greatly dampened when
Elihu Root announced yesterday that he
found tho majority to be 1925, wiplng
oul the gain of 426 votes announced on
Saturdays total. The number of votes
on which, in some form or another, Geo.
Bliss expects to take exception to the
informal count already had, is about
four thousand. About third Of these
are defective or blank ballots and the
rest are Butler, st. John and other votes
which were miscounted, excluded Of
otherwise aided to swell the Cleveland
vote.
Only thirty-nine counties were report
ed officially, up to 8 p. M. In Jefferson
county, Blaine gains eight, and in tn.
whole thirty.nine counties, eleven. HI
total losses are seven. All Clevelaud'l
pluralities remained unchanged.

Cattle DlnaAKea

Washington. Nov. 12-Dr. E. E. Sal.
mon, chief Of bureau Of animal indus
try, has submitted to the commissioner
OF agriculture his report on the conta-
giouT diseases OF animals. Consider.
able is given in detailed history, of the
recent outbreak among cattle IN Kan.
sac, and to description of its symp.
toms. He reaches the conclusion that
the disease Is ergotism, due to eating
q fungus known as ergot. Upon the
treatment and prevention of the disor-
der, he says: "When the first signs of
the disorder appear, the most important
point to be attended to, is to make q
complete change of food, and see that
it be of good quality. nutritious and
free from ergot. 1t would also be proper
to give "a dose OF physic-one to
two pounds of epson salts. in
order to remove as much as possible oi
the poison as is still contained IN its
digestive organs and to follow this with
soft food, as mashes and roots. In severe
cases IN which part of the limbs are al.
ready lifeless this treatment will avail
but little. The greater number OF cases
however, are not advanced to this stage
When lameness is first noticed, they
will be greatly benefited by removing
the cause and placing the animal under
favorable conditions for resisting poison
A very important condition is warmth
even when the an,mals have had
large quantities of ergot, as they seldom
suffer except in cold weather and con.
sequently in attempting to check the
advance of the disease advantage should
be taken of this fact by placing the
cattle in warm sheds. Another condition
believed by some to have much influence
on tue development of ergotism is q
water eupply with plenty of water
always at hand as the animal can resist
ergotism for longer time, than when
ehere is deficiency Of water

GOVERNOR MURRAY is using the
Associated Press in his defense,
sending from this city to the press
of the country that "the Mormon
agents from Salt Lake and their al
lies, and their paid attorneys in
Washington and New York are
making determined effort to de-
stroy his usefulness" As matter
of fact Governor Murray and the
Associated Press agent both know
that Mormon agents have had no.
thing to do with the exposure that
has recently come upon him; and as
for the mans usefulness, it has
never occurred to ybody in Utah
that he was guilty of anything of
the kind. Perhaps it will be charged
that Mormon allies and paid agents
were guilty Of charging unlawful
fees in Murray's Office as Marshal
Of Kentucky; of drawing money
from the government with which to
pay mythical deputies; and of the
various other crooked proceedings
which he will be called upon to ex-
plain.

The committee that has been in

Speaker of the last House will re-
port that at the close of the session
he compelled Stenographer Tyson
to resign in order that he (Keifer)
could appoint his own nephew to
the place, and that the nephew has
been drawing the salary without
performing any labor in return.
Keifer may have had the legal right
to make the change, but morally he
was guilty of an offense against Ty>
son and civil service rules. The
committee has not yet finished with
this rank Republican corruptionist.

tees that he has expressed himself

of law and right, in order to
punish them. Mr.. Springer voted fol
the Edmunds law, and delivered
the following, among many other

will yield it to the gentleman from West
Virginia (Mr. Kenna.) To all that part
Of this bill which is directed against the
institution OF polygamy give nay hearty
assent. There are other portions Of the

those portions by voting to strike
out the ninth section, which vscates

point all such officers. That effort being
Of no avail, I shall take the bill with all it's

in another direction. fl
1t so happens that Representative
Springer is chairman of a committee
