The Buffalo Demonstration.

WHAT WASHINGTON POLITICIANS SAY ABOUT IT.
About democratic headquarters, and In fact In
political circles generally, Gov Ceveland's recep
ton at Buffalo last night was the principal topic
OF discussion to-day. Democrats think IL was a
Dig thing and that it was complete answer to the
scandal stories Republicans maintain that the
greeting to Cleveland at his home does not show
that he is strong politically. They insist that re-
publicans Joined in the demonstration as matter
OF local pride. In answer to this suggestion
a cleveland man said: "It's not likely that men
would turn out and march in the rain 10 do honor
10 a candidate for whom they will not VOTE
There are rumOrs OF a democratic plan to have
Cleveland show himself at other points In New
YORK with the view OF arousiRg enthusiasm for
nun In that state. 1t is said that he Is being urged
70 VISIT Brooklyn and New York city, but none OF
the democratic managers here know OF any such
thing being in contemplation. At democratic
headquarters they do not believe that Cleveland
has any intention OF taking the road. "He
promised some time ago." said one OF the demo-
cratic committee, "to make q visit to his home in
Buffalo about this time II has been his custom TO
go back to his home occasionally since he was
elected governor. He Will now return to Albany
and stay there, attending TO his dutteS"

American Mediation i'm China
AN ABSURD DISPATCH DISTRIBUTED.

Officials OF the State department are OF the opin-
ion that the cable message purporting be an ac-
count OF Minister Youngs efforts 10 effect media
ton between France and China, is evidently dis
patch OF Chinese origin, padded TO suit the occa-
sion The situation Is just the same 1t is said as
IL has been for the past two months. and such an
interview as that described could not have taken
place from the nature OF affairs. Mr. Young has
for couple OF months been ready to act as medi-
tator whenever his services are needed. but no re-
cent instructions from this government have been
sent him. Both nations claim that they have not
violated the treaty OF Tien Tsin, and each has ex
pressed Willingness to mediate upon the request
or the other. Such request from either would be
an open acknOwled cement OF weakness, and be re-
garded as practically breakdown. Both realize
this, and are content to make faces at each other
The idea that Minister Young should approach Ii
Hung Chang for the purpose OF mediating at the
request OF France when the request proved to be
simply retteration OF former demand, Is re-
garded as absurd, and the inference Is drawn that
the story was started for purpose.
