NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-The following is fur
nished for publication:
HEADQUARTERS
DEMOCRATIC STATE Con-, HOFFMAN HOUsE.{
NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 1884. }
We deem it our duty to announce to the
people of the State that the Republican mana
gers have within the last forty eight hours
conceived a new scheme for throwing again
into dispute the result of the election in our
state. For many days after the cleo
tion they, in entire bad faith. claimed
for the Republican candidate several
States, which they knew they had not carried.
In the same faith. when every source Of in
formation, including the Associated Press,
has demonstrated that the vote of New York
has been given to the Cleveland electors they
still claim the State. No fact of history is
now better known than that the results of
the election,as ascertained, declared and GER
uhed by the election officers, and
Of public record throughout the
state, give New York to the Cleveland
electors by decisive plurality. These publicly
certified returns have been sifted in several
counties by both parties with the most con-
scientiOus care during the last four days until
every possible doubt as to the result has been
removed. Knowing this fact they now pro-
pose, as last desperate resort, to make OF the
boards of county canVassers throughout the
State. where controlled by them, so many re-
turning boards after the pattern Of those not
long since used by them in Southern States.
orders are to be applied for,
thus relying upon the partisansDip of the
boards IN the first place and Judges
of their own political faith in the second.
They intend and expect to throw again into
dispute the result of the election and involve
il into interminable litigation. To this end
printed papers have been sent by them to
their agents and representatives in every
county in the State of New York, to be used
with the courts whenever an occasion can be
manufactured. OF the entire reliability of
the information as to this scheme there can
be no question. We call upon the representa-
tives of the party in the various counties of
this State to be alert and by every proper
method to resist and defeat this last
desperate device, and mindful of the grave
consequences to the business interests of our
State which such a conspiracy necessarily in
wolves, we deem it our duty to assure our
people. who have now generally acquiesced
in the result, that they may confidently rely
that by no such scheme or device VIII the
State be deprived of the result of its deliber-
ate choice. 1t may disturb and protract the
determination, but it will not change the re-
suit. W. E. SMITH,
Chairman ExecuMVe Committee.

WILL CLEVELAND MARRY?
The Ladies of the White House Under
the New Administration


Here it is regarded as settled, SAYS an
Albany special, that Gov. Cleveland is
the next President, and already the Cos
sips are busy with coDJeetures as to who
will be the lady of the White House.
There is a well-defined belief among his
friends that there is a young lady in
Western New York who will soon be led
to the altar by the President-elect. Others
who have known him long and well say
that he will never marry, and that this
talk simply comes Of the fact that he has
shown this young woman some slight at
tentiOns since he was elected Governor.
Early in life his hopes and ambitions for
wife were crushed by the hand of death.
and his affection for the lost one has kent
him treading the wine-press of life alone.
If the reports that he is to marry are not
true, then his own immediate family will
furnish the lady to do the social honors of
his administration.
1t is generally believed by those who
know him best that there will be less fes-
tlVities during his term Of Office than there
have been for many years past. He has
been hard-wOTking Governor, and will
probably continue his industrious habits
as President. Bachelor as be is, the White
House will, however, have a most credit
able mistress. There are four ladies in
his immediate family, either of whom can
well do the honors of the household. His
eldest sister in this country, Mrs. w. E.
HoYt, of Fayetteville, would fill any po-
sition with credit. She is a middle-aged
lady, of pleasing address, who has spent
a good deal of time at the Executive Man
sion here since her brother has been Gov
ernOr. She has made many friends here
in the capital of the State, and will
doubtless do the same in Washington,
where she will probably go March
next. Miss r. K. Cleveland is
the maiden sister. She still re-
sides in the little home cottage at Hol-
land Patent. just above Utica. A good
public speaker, quick cOnversationalist
aud generally plain woman of intellec-
tual force, she would do her share in en-
tertaining her brothers guests at the ma
ti0nal capitol. Mr.. Cleveland has a
sister who for 30 years has been a mis-
sionary at Ceylon. She has two charming
young lady daughters, Mary and Carrie
Hastings, whom the Governor has been
for years educating in this country. He
has given them every advantage, and
they have improved them. They will no
doubt be a part of their uncle's family
circle at Washington, as they have been
at times here.
With Mrs. HOyt or any one of three
other ladies spoken of the social end of
the first Democratic administration for a
quarter of a century will be we'll sus-
tained, even should the President-elect
continue bachelor.

About O'Clock on recent afternoon
the inhabitants of the Rue des Martyrs,
Paris. were treated to a strange drama.
A man, in his shirt only, suddenly leaped
floor, and took refuge in an obscure cor
ner for 45 minutes. Then, a heavy
shower coming on, he crept on all fours
toward the opposite end of the balcony,
and got behind large shrub. AT this mo-
ment feminine arm was seen to throw
him garment, in which he enyeloped
himself as well as he could, and an hour
later young woman opened window,
and this martyr of the street of martyrs
bounded through it. A few moments af-
ter this he was seen to jump into a hack
and disappear without in any wise re-
turning the signs of adieu made TO him
by feminine head from the window.
