BosTON, Mass, Oct. 1S.-At l O'Clock
Thursday morning q large force of police
started for Wellesley, Mass, where T. riot
was reported in progress. For some time
trouble has been brewing between the
Italians employed on the Sandbury
river aqueduct and the contractor, The
latter put off paying the men on
various excuses. Wednesday afternoon he
desired to visit this city. Fearing violence
he boarded the Boston & Albany train at
Natick, the rext station west of Wellesley
instead of at Wellesley Hills By some
means the italians learned that their boss"
was leaving town, and they at once concluded
that they would never get their pay, and
became desperate Forty or fifty of them
boarded the train, took possession, and re-
fused to allow it to proceed. They carried
the contractor from the train by force, cut
him severely, kicked and otherwise NAL
treated him, and conveyed him to an old
barn near by used by them as lodging
place, whore they kept him prisoner. The
police force of Wellesly consists of only
three OF four men, and they were powerless
to act against the mob The select

Capt White and twenty officers went to the

THEY WON'T GIVE Up.

New YORK, Oct. 17.-In view OF the
result of the elections in Ohio and West
Virginia the national democratic CONS
mittee TO day issued an address to the
people of the United States. which says;
I'VE may confidently expect a majority
in Ohio for Cleveland and Hendricks in
November. The address states that the
B.aine managers expended not less than
$500, 600 in Ohio, and more than $780,
600 in West Virginia in their political
work; that they employed in political jobs
the men engaged in the postal service of
the United States; that the payment OF
veterans by the commissioner of pen
sions has been delayed by him with the
purpose of coercing them to vote for Mr..
Blaine; that they armed the Marshals of
the United States and melted them to
violence and outrages that these abuses
of political power have been committed
with the full sanction of Mr.. Blaine,
whom they made one of their county and
ward workers in the two states and that
the country is fully aroused and alarmed
at the corrupt influences surrounding Mr..
Blaine and will reject him foi the Presi>
dency. The address further says that Mr.
Blaine, the spectators and the COrporaN
tons have grown rich, but trade is stag
nant.
THE commerce of the country has de-
cayed," says the address. Mills are
standing idle, Where wages have not
been stopped they have been reduced.
Mechanics and laborers 90 about seeking
employment in vain. Women and chill
dren are beginning to want bread and
yet the farmer can fiEd no profitable
market for his grain These circumstan-
ces afford conclusive proof that few in
terests have been cared for by the repub-
lican managers at the expense of the in
terests of the great body of the people.
The address concludes by reminding
the democracy of the country that these
evils can be eradicated only by victory in
November over the INSCRIPTIONS men
who are now endeavoring to seize the
presidency, and that this victory can only
be assured by complete organization.
OHIO FOR CLEVELAND.
CHICAGO, Oct. 17.-E. H. Pendlet0n
brother of Senator George I'll. Pendleton
said in conversation at the Palmer house
yesterday that he believed that the Ger
mans of Cincinnati and Of Ohio generally
would vote for Cleveland in November
The reasons for their voting the republi'
can ticket last Tuesday, he said, were
that they preferred republican rule in the
state, were Gissatitied with the democrats
for not having repealed the Scott law
and did not think the fact of the state
being carried by the republicans in the
state election insured Blaine's election il
November. The democrats and the But
lerites, Mr.. Pendleton said will fuse in
November. and these, together with thu
independent republicans, will carry th'
state for Cleveland.

There are practically but three general
classes Of the very useful compounds known
as Baking Powder
First, those composed OF commercial
cream Of tartar. soda. and starch or -four.
Cream Of tartar is derived from a peculiar
matter that is deposited in the casks during
the fermentation Of sour wines 1t consists
Of potassa united with tartaric acid. The
cream of tartar Of commerce is not usually
pure. as il generally contains from three 10
thirteen per cent. of tarirzte OF lime, besides
uncertain quantities Of sand, car, -four,
chalk, etc. Ia large doses il acts as a
cathartic.
Second, those composed of alum, soda.
and starch or -four. Alum is occasionally
manufactured from the earths which contain
it ready formed. out most generally from
minerals called "alum ores" In small
doses it is astringent, in large doses pur-
gative.
Third, those composed Of the acid phos-
phate of lime, soda and starch. Phosphate
of lime is constituent of all grains and is
an important nutritive principle and an in
dispensable element in the construction of
the animal tissues. Fine white -four is
much inferior to the Graham or whole wheat
Hour, because in the process of boiling, the
phosphates are discarded with the bran
The phosphates are necessary TO sustain life,
and fine, white -four alone, will not sustain
life, because the phosphates are no. present
in sufficient quantity.
This has been demonstrated by actual ex-
pertinent upon rabbits, dogs, ETC., and it was
thisfact and the several undesirable quail
ties of cream tartar for raising bread, that
induced Prof. Horsford to seek for method
of producing an acid phosphate of lime
suitable for use in the composition of baking
powders. He accomplished his purpose,
and has succeeded far beyond his own or
his friends expectations, as the Bread Prepa-
ration Ia baking POWDER that bears his
name, fully testi6es. Baking Powder made
by this process is the only one that adds
anything to the nutritiye qualities Of the
-four. Many baking powders contain very
injurious ingredients.
