New YORK, Sept. 1S.-It is reported here
that the object of the return of Minister Levi
P. Morton, vino is coming here from France
shortly, is to aid the Republican national
convention to raise money for the campaign.
In the Garfield campaign Mr.. Morton proved
u most efficient financial agent for the Re-
publicans among the monyed men, and for
some time, there has been need of
man of his peculiar ability to
labor with the downtown capi-
talists who have not up to the
present time subscribed much money,
1t is said that Mr.. Morton is to be made sec
rotary of the treasury, with the understand
ing that he shall be permitted to retain the
place under Blaine if the latter should be
elected. Otherwise this appointment would
hardly be t. temptation to Mr.. Morton No
politician of any Importance would care to
accept what would be the mere temporary
filing up of gap without any opportunity to
dictate policy or to make the slightest rep
utation for himself. Mr. Blaine is friendly
to Mr.. Morton. Morton was originally prom
ised this post under Garfield. Certain New
York influences crowded out Morton He
was so much disappointed that he refused
the secretaryship of the navy, which was Of
fered to him at that time.
There has been a good understanding be-
tween the president and the Republican
managers in New York. He had q conf
dental interview with one of the directing
members of the national committee last
evening" and assured him that he would do
all in his power to aid the success of the Re-
publican ticket. Mr.. Morton is certainly not
Objectionable to the president
Several influential western Democrats
have called at the Democratic headquarters
here to protest against the policy of stalking
so much upon the October election in Ohio.
These western Democrats say the Republi-
cans have set trap for the Democrats in
that state, and they regret that the managers
here do not see it. One Democratic poll
tician, man of great wealth and influence,
says:
''You are making great mistake in claiming
Ohio 1t is also another mistake to make u great
struggle for the state. You are raising Demo-
cratic anticipation. so far Ohio is concerned,
which cannot be realized. Ohio is almost GER
tain to be Republican in October and by the ex-
traordinary claims that are being made by the
Democratic managers here, you are paving the
way to a serious set back

The Wabashaw Street Bridge.

Last night the only communication be-
tween bridge square and West st. Paul was
by boat as portion of the, wooden bridge
on the west side was cut from the main
structure and moved on rollers to fill a gap
Of about IT'S feet to connect the dump of IT'S
feet built out from the shore near the Mat
Heaton building with the temporary struc-
ture constructed on the east side of the bridge
and leading up to the iron spans constructed
last year. 1t is expected that the make shift
will be ready for public use this morning and
travel will have to move over it until next
January at which time the new iron spans
and approaches are contracted to be up and
finished.

The Quickest Time on Record.

Hook and Ladder company No. ? gave an
exhibition of raising the Hayes extension
ladder against the north side of the new
Sherman block on Ninth street yesterday
forenoon in presence of Chief Hendricks, of
New Haven, Conn, and Chief McQuade, of
Albany, n. Y, and the Pompier ladder corps
showed what they could do on the Waba-
shaw front of the structure. The Hayes ex.
tension was raised and a man placed on top
the block in the remarkable quick time of
one minute and thirteen seconds, beating the
time made before our German visitors on the
same building last week by two seconds
This excels the fast time made in Cincin-
natl with this ladder two years ago by nine
seconds, which has stood as the quickest
time made with the Hayes ladder in this
country. The engineers from abroad said
they had never witnessed such quick and
perfect work anywhere, and besides, very
highly ccmplimented the Pompier corps.

only fair basis upon which they could act to
secure the greatest benefit to the property
owners on the line of the Improvement and
the necessities of the city at large.
70 OF the assessment thus placed on these
property owners $685. has already been
paid and expended on the work now in
progress, and the 300 objectors represent
$50, 900 on the balance of the assessment,
aud ask that judgment for default OF pay
ment may not be entered by the court
against their property. The claims of these
objectors as presented are not from e sponta-
neous uprising on the part of the Dayton
bluff property owners, but were first origina-
ted months ago by F. Willius, one of sthe
largest property owners on the bluff, and
have since his absence from the city been
championed by few others, among whom
Capt. Joseph Burger is quite foremost.
The claims on which the counsel for the
obiectors, whose assessment is from $5 to
$50 per front foot asks that judgment shall
not be granted against their property are as
follows:
Because the improvement is general and
not local.
Because no permanent grade has been es-
tablished from the westerly to the easterly
limits of Seventh street
=
enth street and the building of a permanent
roadway and iron bridge over Phalen creek
cannot legally be united in one assessment.
Because the making of the roadway and
building OF q bridge over Phalen creek is not
the grading of the street.
Because the making of the improvement
was never ordered by the common council.
Because of fraudulent and willful confine-
ment OF the assessment by the board of pub
tic works to certain property to the exclusion
OF property benefited inside and outside the
city, and in fraud of the rights of said prop
erty holders under the city charter.
Because the board Of public works have
wilfully or fraudulently or by mistake omit
ted or left out Hoffman avenue from the as
sessment made by them.
Because said board did not make assess
ment proportiOnate on the street west of the
fill and below an amount proportionate, and
collectable from the objector's property.
Because it failed to place the assessment
upon all the property benefited
Because it did not make the assessment
benefits to each particular lot, but laid the
same over vast section of the city arbitra-
rily, regardless of the nature of the owners
interest.
Because no assessment was in fact ever
made or confirmed hereon by the board of
public works, and which assessment is there
fore fraudulent, illegal and void.

THE Philadelphia Times call up an histori-
cal fact that has an impressive pertinent
bearing. Itsays: eve now have four
Presidential candidates on the stump, viz. :;
Blaine, Butler, st. John and Lockwood.
Cleveland's sense seems TO hold out better,
and he is the one who will be likely to ad-
dress the American people on the 4th of
March next. All the Presidential candidates
of the past who delivered inaugural addresses
before the election, have been silent on in
augqation day, and the rule seems certain
to hold good for years to come"

THE LATEST ONO IDEA.

Ex-CoNGREssMAN Page of California joins
in the Republican chorus of alarm over Ohio
His plan is to buy the state. "If he says"
an influential German has a pair Of horses
to devote to Republican services I'd give him
$4,000, for them" 'Ohio" says Page, the
boss buyer, is not only the key to the stu
uation, but it is the situation itself. II We
should loose Ohio IN October, nothing car SdUe the
Republican party. 1t would be folly to talk of
carrying New York and lose Ohio" ''If we
could only have aman like Dorsey in Ohio just
now there would be no doubt as to the result
The matter is too important for us to take
risks. / would take no risk whatever. I'd
get leading Germans in every town and
county to indorse Blaine and Logan and
print the Endorsements every day in every
paper in the state. If it took million dol
lars this ought to be done. Anything, al
most, can be done with money. l can carry
any doubtful state in the Union with money
Everybody knows a good deal of money is
fooled away every campaign by bad manage
ment but money properly expended is bread
cast upon the waters. Ohio is absolutely
necessary to us; it is not to the Democrats. "
Mr.. Page says there is a good deal of danger
for the Republicans in Ohio, and from his
vision the only thing left TO do is to buy the
state with q million dollars, and here we
have the latest Ohio plan.

A NEWPORT letter to the Boston Traveller
thinks that the most interesting trio that
have visited that resort this season was Ed
win Booth Joseph jefferson and William
Warren, the two last being guests at the cot
tage of Mr.. Booth. These noted and notable
men were greeted with no social or civic
eclat, there were no martial honors, no sa-
lutes of twenty-one guns nor military parades
few, perhaps, knew that Mr.. Booth had
two such honored guests beneath his roof,
and it must be confessed that their quiet re-
ception at Newport seems to be quite in ac-
cord with their desire to avoid show and
parade. But to the thoughtful the question
naturally occurs in hundred years, or even
in one year, which will be the most famous,
President Arthur or this gifted dramatic trio!

There are no adequate scientific explanations at

defense OF Blaine. The strain upon the i'm

CONGRESSMAN Lyman of Massachusetts

papers. In accepting a nomination for con-
gress the other day, Mr.. Lyman said that
having beer Republican since the dissolu-

in him to vote for the Repu blican nominee,
''But for Mr.. Blaine cannot vote" 1t cannot
be denied that the only candidate for whom
the majority of the Massachusetts delegates
at the last three Republican National Con-
ventions, and conspicuously at the conven-
ton in June of this year, declined to vote
was Mr.. Blaine. Why did they make this
exceptions twas because they knew that
Mr. Blalne's character was so much i'm
paired as to render him an unfit candidate.
