TIE PRESENT BLAINE PLAN.
New York Virtually Given Up--To Fight for
Indiana and New Jersey.

Indiana and New Jersey.
Especial to tic Phaadelphtu 19naes.1
NEW YORK, October 10 The Blaine
plan for the remainder of the cam
paign has been fully developed here
during the past forty-cight hours,
Many leading Republicans have been
here in consultation. Among these
was Pension Commissioner Dudley,
who managed the late campaign for
Blaine in Ohio. New York is SUBJ
stantlaliy given up as about certain to
60 for Cleveland. 1t is recognized
that it would be uphill work to carry
this State. Little money will, there
fore, be spent here. The Republicans
will make noisy and demOnstratiye
campaign in New York and the Blaine
caravan will go about, but this will be
done TO divert the attention of the
Democratic managers. While all this
noise is being made keen Republican
managers will be Dudleyizing Indiano.
New Jersey and Connecticut.
BY these methods the Republicans
expect to get Indiana certain, and New
Jersey if desperate means will accom-
plish the result. This would elect
Blaine, provided he carried the hithcr
to Republican States, even though New
York 90 against him. The Democrats
arc basing some hope on Wisconsin,
but it is not q good reliance unless
there should be Cleveland cyclone.
Should Blaine get the naturally Rcpub-
llcan States Cleveland will have to oct
New York and Indiana, or New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut to be
elected. Hc could not spare Indiana
and Connecticut nor Indiana and New
Jersey.
This is now the Democratic danger.
1t may be discovered when it is too
late. Dudley goes at once to Indiana,
where United States Marshals and
Government officials will be employed
as in Ohio, to debauch the State. The
New Jersey campaign will be managed
from this city. Money will be poured
into both States while all over New
York ccasclcss racket will be main
tanned. There is not much danger
that the Democrats will lose New York,
but they may be caught mapping else
where.

ATLANTA, GA, October. 22.-In the

against Robert E. Cunningham in the
Supreme Court, bcing a suit for paw
mcnt of q note of So, 800 given bv the
defendant to Warren 81 Wallace, and
discounted by the National Bank, bas-

ton, the note being given by Cunning

II the transaction was q speculation in
futures the note was void in the hands
OF all parties, whether innocent hold
ers or otherwise, and the jury found
for the dctcndent. Judge Rooney, in
charging the jury, held that, if part Of
the consideration was legal and part
was illegal, the legal part should
stand. This case has excited much at
tcntion, having been before the courts
some time. The Supreme Court, in
this case, has also decided that future
contracts are illegal and void. In de-
livcring his opinion, Justice Blanford
speaks of Ford, Brag and Parker as

a M Mysterious Tragedy,

PnHADELPHIA, Pa, October 24.-
Early this evening while James L..
Clayton, aged eighteen, was visiting
his friend John $. Baker, aged seven
teen, at the lattcr's home, near Seven
tcent'l and Brown streets, in this city,
Bakers parents left them alone in the
dining-room, his father going out to
his store and his mother starting up
stairs. Shc'had been gone but a mo-
mcnt when three pistol shots startled
her, and running back to where the
boys were, she found both lying on the
floor wcltcring in their blood, and q
bul ll-dog revolver in Clayton's hands.
Baker had two bullet wounds in his
head, and had expired. Clayton had
one bullet in his head, and died very
shortly afterwards. The boys were
fast friends, and 10 cause can be as
signed for the shooting, nor is any
thing known as to how it occurred.

Mr.. Blaine left Evansville at $50 this

days ride to Lafayette. At Tcrrc

which he draw distinction between
the New and the Old South; tho new

element Of strength in the Democratic

Three Long Dusty Months without RAIN
Crops of all Kinds Greatly Damaged.
An officer ofthe Signal Service. saws:
"Rclative to the long-continued drouth.
that during September it existed i'm ali
sections cast Of the Mississippi valley
and in Texas. General rains have
fallen during October in Tennessee.
Ohio Valley and the Lake region, but
the drouth has continucdin the Middle
Atlantic, South Atlantic and Gulf
States. The little rain that has fallen
has not been enough to do any good
to the crops in these sections. AT At
lanta, Ga, rain has not fallen for over
two months, and it is estimated the
cotton crops in that vicinity will fall
short forty per cent.
Near Shreveport, La, it is cstimat-
ed that the cotton. crop will be only
two-thirds of an average. In the Vi
cinity of Petersburg, Va, it has be-
come necessary to close the cotton
factories on account of the scarcity of
water. The officer reports indications
OF light rain in the vicinity soon, and
says there is Il heavy rain storm i'm the
Lake regions. There has been no rain
OF consequence in or about WASHINGTON
for nearly three months. The Shade
trees along the streets and in the parks
are showing the effects of the long
drouth. The grass in many places is
dead, and in several instances has
burned whcc accidentally fired, like
the grass of the prairies.
