Especial Telegram to the Globe.

MILES City, Jan. 2l.-It is becoming very
apparent that the creditors of G. W. Savage

there is here. Now that the establishment is to
be closed out by assignee OF the sheriff or both.
there is no incentive to secu,e trade and the
prospects are that the creditors will secure
good deal less than fifty cents on the dollar.

HIS ADDRESS AT THE NEW YORK STATE FAIR.
Gov. Cleveland, accompanied by Private Secre-
tary Lamont and AdJutant General Farnsworth,
was received with great enthusiasm by a crowd OF
thousands at the Elmira fair yesterday. He de-
uvered an address In the afternoon to an assem-
blage OF about 5000. He made no reference to
politics, unless his advice to farmers to demand the
removal OF all unjust and inequitabe burdens upon
agriculture be SO construed After expressing
pleasure at being present and enjoying an oppor-
tunity to inspect the exhibition which Illustrated
the condition OF the agriculture OF New York, he
said he regarded these annual fairs as somewhat
connected with the state government, because
they are fostered and aided by public funds. He
thought that while bOaStng OF her extensive manu-
featuring interests, New York might also be 1uSti-
ed In boaSttng OF her agricultural interests. the
value OF her farms and farm products are second
only among the states He regarded the farmer as
the most independent OF all citizens There might
be seasons when results would not justify luXuri-
GUS expenditure, but with economy and good
Judgment the farm was pretty sure TO yield a uv-
ing. He said the real value OF the farmer to the
state and nation is not fully appreciated until the
fact Is considered that he feeds the millions who
are engaged in other pursuits.
In the evening, what Is described as the grandeSt
political demonstration ever made in Eimira, took
place. Thousands visited the city from every drec-
ton parade, having In line 1000 men, was re-
