BOLD BEN's BOOMERANG.
The Chairman ofthe Maryland Green
hackers Makes a Startling
Disclosure.

BALTIMORE, M. D., Oct. 1S.-The
Butler movement in Baltimore has ap-
parently gone to pieces. A few days
ago committee went to New York to
see the Butler managers about getting
Butler to come here and make speech.
They alleged that they were referred to
the National Republican Committee
and were told that that body had
charge of Mr.. Buffers canvass. At the
Republican headquarters they say the
committee were told that they had not
enough money to send Butler to Mary
land, and that the state was not close
enough to warrant them making an
effort there. To-day w. HI. Parsons,
chairman of the National Greenback
labor committee of Maryland, is out in
a card denouncing Butler as a trickster
and says 1--WE are forced to announce
that General Butler is using us and our
party, and those who sympathize with
the principles he assumes to champion
solely for the purpose of defeating Mr..
Cleveland in New York by withdraw
ing sufficient number of voters here
tofore Democratic, thus to secure it's
thirty-siX Electoral votes for Blaine.
The sinews of war used by General
Buffers polished managers are furnish
ed entirely by the National Republican
Committee, who thereby control Gener-
al Buffers movements and cOnfine
them to States where the Democratic
vote can be divided.

HURD WILL CONTEST.
Don't Pay Your Bets Until the Matter
is Settled.

Mr.. Hurd's friends are urging him to
contest the election of Mr.. Romeis, and
it is quite probable that he will do so.
He will not do this, however, unless it
can be doue fairly. He will take no ad-
vantage of technicalities, but will base
his claims on fair ballot and an hon
Fast count. There is no questioning the
fact that voters were colonjzed in To
ledo, the greatly increased vote in sew
eral wards of the city proving this be-
yound a doubt. 1t is said by those who
have taken the trouble to investigate
the matter that the poll books of the
Fifth Ward bear the names of between
two and three hundred persons who are
entire strangers in the ward. The same
is undoubtedly true of other wards.
That thousands of dollars of Republican
money were used here to purchase q
Republican victory, few persons will
deny, and for these and other reasons
the friends of Mr.. Hurd honestly be
lieve that he is entitled to seat in the
next Congress. There are those who
are so confident that he will get it that
they are willing to wage that Mr.. Ro
meis occupation Of checking baggage
will not be interfered with by any Con-
gressional duties. In the event of a
contest bets should not be paid until the
question is settled.-Bee.

MONEY AND ARMS,
Sent Into Ohio in Great Profusion by
the Republicans.

Special Despatch to the Detroit Free Press.
WASHINGTON, October 16.-In addi-
tion to the assertions made yesterday
by Congressman Ellis to the Free Press
correspondent concerning the lavish
use of money by the Republicans in
Ohio, he stated the following to re-
porter of the Evening Star: In the
last five days the Republican National
Committee sent 81 100000 into the
State, and during the campaign they
have spent over $2,2OO,00O. In Maine
they spent over $2OO,0OO They can't
do this all along the line in November.
Their treasury cannot be ineyhaustible.
When the people come to know the
methods employed in Ohio they will
revolt against it. All the power of the
Federal administration was exerted to
the utmost to carry this State election.
Dudley, with the whole power of his
office and official servers, overran the
State. The people in this country
won't stand such methods. The hon.
est Republican can't sanction such.
"What will be the feeling through
out the country when it becomes known
that the Republican National Commit
tee in New York shipped arms into the
State? Boxes of revolvers and amuni-
ton were received in Ohio and distrib-
uted among the lowest scoundrels that
ever prowled through an alley OF slept

carry about ones person these red-hot
final days of the campaign, for instant
reference, there is no publication to
compare with the pocket edition of the
B. and o. Red book recently out. To
receive copy, the only requisite is the
enclosing of stamp with address to
G. K. Lord, G. P. A. of the B. and O.,
Baltimore, and once in possession, it
would be hazardjng little if anything to
express the belief it would not be parted
with for good many times the value
of the stamp. The Red Book coversall
the States in the Union, gives in. terse
but comprehensive form full details of
the last Presidential, State, Congress-
iopal and Legislative elections, answer
ing almost every question one could ask.
More than this, there is statement
with each State showing in brief the re-
suit of every presidential election since
admission into the. Union, together
with electoral vote and other data, all
arranged in complete form, and with
an eye to clean and artistic effect truly

A Curions Freak of Nature,

A remarkable monstrosity was born
on the farm of Isaac Hoover, living sew
eral miles east of this place last Mon
day afternoon. The monstrosity is a
calf with one head, two eyes, four ears,
eight legs, two tails, and all of the vital
organs either double or trebled. The
nose is short and the mouth a circular
hole just large enough to admit mans
finger. The ears are naturally located
and two more, joining and immediate
ly in the center of the head. -Four legs
are also mutually located while four
more grow stright up from the back, or
which looks more like another beast.
1t is one of the most remarkable freaks
of nature ever seen here, and was viewed
with curiosity by hundreds of people,

COLUMBUS, October 1S.-Returns by
counties do not change the pluralities
given last night. Unexpectedly the
Prohibition and Greenback Butler votes
increase proportionately vito those of
the Democrats and Republicans. The
Prohibition vote last year was 1852;
this year, $50. The Greenback vote
last year was 1887; this year, 3,7O0,
showing no coalition, but party lines
were closely followed. The total Pro-
hibition and Greenback vote was IL, 447
or !, ,127 more than Robeson's plurality
The rest of the Republican State ticket
has an average majority over all of over
5000. The State vote was 780,373. Last
year it was 718,16S. In October, 1880,
it was 716,1S6. In November, 1880, ii
was 724,967. There is no change in Con-
gressmen except an increase of $50 in
Romeis' majority over Hurd.

THE printers of New York are almost
unanimous for Cleveland. In conven-
ton assembled the Union printers set
forth the following principles:
That the election of James G. Blaine
to the Presidency means the exaltation
of Whitelaw Reid and his hireling
Thompson.
That the newspapers supporting the
Republican candidate in New York are
using all their power to reduce the
wages of printers and thereby set an
example to employers in all other
trades to reduce the wages of men en-
ployed by them.
That we call upon all workingmen,
asking them to consider the welfare of
themselves and their families and in
| the coming election to vote against
James G. Blaine, because he is the can
didate of employers who preach the
theory of protection but to the utmost
of their power endeavor to reduce the
earnings of their workingmeu as near
to starvation rates as possible, and
strive in every way to prevent the Or
ganization and progress of workmen
Scleiuliy.
That it is our firm belief that the
protection they seek is protection
against the just claims Of those whom
they employ.
That the success of the Republican.
candidate means starvation wages.
That to insure success we must unite,
upon some one candidate whose possi-
bility of election insures the defeat of
Jas. G. Blaine, and that with due re-
spect and consideration to the opinions
of those who may favor other candi-
dates, it is self evident fact that these
efforts will be futile and that our inter-
ests demand that all who seek the de-
feat of Jas. G. Blaine as champion Of
the frat" Republican newspapers of
New York must concentrate their
efforts to insure the election of Grover
cleveland, whose supporters among
the newspapers of New York recognize
and respect the demands of organized
labor by paying the scale of prices
adopted by the various trade organiza-
tions.
