Bryan +. Barry, Chairman of the State
Democratic Executive Committee, has
issued the following circular letter:

ofTeYus:
The State Executive Committee of
your party. at \ meeting held in Hous-
ION, August 81, decided 10 urge q thor
ough local organization, which | am
glad to SEQ is being effected in most
places.
1t is believed, however, that local
campaign clubs can and will aid materi-
ally to create an interest and poll alarge
vote. ! therefore recommend and urge
upon all Democrats, especially young
men, Of each voting procint in the State
to meet at once II organize yourselves
into clubs, with "A central county club
Each club and central club should adopt
such rules for its government as may be
proper and as in their opinion may be
necessary. The prime object, however,
should be to enroll all Democrats and Sc
cure their attendance at the polls.
| request that all clubs, which have
been, and which may be organized, will
furnish me with the names and address
OF each officer and member for record to
be used in the distribution Of dOcu-
ments, etc., and report of all work done
and speeches made, for record and use
by this committee
1t would certainly be a matter of no
little pride for US t. lead all other States
in the vote for our ticket, State and Ma
tional, and as the voice of each precinct
in all the conventions of the party is in
proportion to it's vote polled, a large
vote should he obtained.

clipping with Ernest j. Shilling, her faith.
er's coachman. Miss Victoria is the
daughter of G. p. Morosjni, the millionaire
partner in Jay Gould's brokerage
firm. She is a decided blonde,
very beautiful and accomplished,
and twenty-five years old. The elopement
occurred from the Morosini country seat al
Yonkers-on-the- Hudson, and was made
known when the aged broker rushed into
police headquarters weeping bitterly, and
between his sobs told the story. Shilling is
a blonde, aged twenty five years, and had
been in the employ of Morosini several years
until the first OF this month when he was
discharged. He is a German, and is consid-
cred handsome. Mr.. Morosini's suspicious
were first aroused two weeks ago, when he
found Miss Victoria resting calmly in the
arms of the coachman. The old broker be-
came terribly enraged, and a scene imme-
diately followed, Miss Victoria being sent
to her room and Shilling ordered Off the
premises. Early yesterday morning the
lovers fled, and are supposed to have arrived
here at four O'Clock in the afternoon. The
police can do nothing, as the girl is of legal
age:and her own mistress. They were not
found up to midnight. Miss Victoria was
the eldest of three daughters and her
fathers special pet. The young ladies and
two sons of the family are we'll known in
the higher circles of this city.
Count" Morosini, as he is called, has a
romantic history. He is an Italian, and
came here as a refugee with Garibaldi, and
remained the bosom friend of TIE liberator
during his residence on Staten Island. Moro

tlons, and is now a member of Jay Gould's
firm Of W. L. Connor & Co. The Count is
almost distracted over the disgrace brought
upon his family, and it is feared he will
commit a desperate act. He swears to kill
Shilling on sight.
