CLEVELAND AND CORPOR-
ATIONS.
The Democratic Nominees Deliberate
Insult to Workingmen.

The New York Evening Post, which
has finally taken it's stand on the side
of the corporate violators of the consti-
tutional, legal, and industrial rights of
the people, defends Governor Cleveland
for his veto of the bill to reduce the
fare of the elevated railroads of New
York to five cents. This bill, it says,
"was passed in the teeth Of charter
which says that no such bill shall be
passed until it shall have been ascer-
tanned that the elevated roads are earn
ing more than certain amount of mon
ey on the capital actually invested in
them" That is a very pretty phrase,
"In the teeth of a charter" 1t is so
pretty that we must use it ourselves
and call the attention Of the Post to the
fact that the charter itself was passed
| in the teeth" of Constitution which
reserves explicitly to the Legislature OF
the State the right to "alter" or repeal"
any charter granted by any preceding
Legislature. The language of the Con-
stitution of New York State is as fol-
lows:
Art. VIII, Sec, /. Corporations may be
| formed under general laws; hut shall not De
created by special act, except for munlcipatt
of the Legislature. the obj cts of the corpor-
alton cannot be attained under general law.
That is clear enough. 1t is the SUI.

Che State Of New York, Interchangeable

charter of. any corporation. whether 1t

Henry vyatterson Spealzs,

LOUISVILLE, July IA mass meeting
was held here Wednesday night to ratify the
Democratic national nominations. There
were fully 5000 people in attend
ance, and great enthusiasm was
manifested. Henry Watterson, Ex-Governor
Blackburn and othes gentlemen spoke, Mr..
Watterson making the principal speech. He
devoted considerable time to discussion OF
the platform, and declared tito be explicit
and plain, and to mean tariff reform. On
this point he said:l
In 1880 a false issue as to the tariff was pre-
cipitated by the Republicans late in the can
vass. The Democrats ran away and were
clearly laid down. No false issue OF
new issue can be sprung upon us, and
we are not going to run away;
we are going to stand and fight In
diligently and unanimously, and, when the
battle is over and won, we are going to re:
duce war taxes at least s100,0O0,OO and
revise the tariff and reduce it to peace
basis under a wise and just application OF
the principles unfolded and specified by the
platform adopted by the National convention
which put Cleveland and Hendricks in the

Story of the Rescue.
LIEUT.. GREELY.

ST. JOHNS, N. F., July 1S.-The story Of
the rescuing party, as told by Capt. Ashe,
ice pilot of the Bear, is as follows:
Sailed from ST. Johns May a reached
Upernavik on goth: Duck island June 6; Cape
York June 10, and Payer Harbor on 22nd.
At Up m. we had both ships fast to g
heavy foe in Payer Harbor, and some of the
officers and men left the ships for the shore in
different directions. An officer from the
Thetis found the record on Brevoort island
stating that Greedy and party were all
after driving about'on the ice nearly three
weeks in the vicinity of Cape Sabine The
record also told where to find his winter
camp. Our steam launch being out and
ready we were Immediately sent away for
the camp, which was about three miles
northwest Of Cape Sabine. In the mean
time the Thetis blew her whistle to
recall some of her men, and they
neared it we saw one man make his appear
ance where he could look down the cape. He
saw the boat and came down to where we
were going to land. Seeing but one man,
and the way he staggered over the snow, we

den reverse to our cheerful spirits Of quar-
ter of an hour ago. But it was no time to re-
feet; we must try to save the living:
jumped into the launch, and at once passed
some food that we were prepared with, and
we at once started for the camp. 1t was
blowing gale. The camp tent was blown
down, except stout prop under one end.
The poor fellows had not strength enough to
put it up.
SIX MEN LAY STARVING
and unable to help themselves. Pointing to
one, they said he was dying, but he rallied
hole = in the canvass to give
us room, and commenced to
feed them, serving them all round gradu-
ally, and not letting them have as much as
they wanted. The launch was sent off to the
Bear, which was coming. The Thetis was
also close by. Capt. Emory, DR.. Ames and a
crew came on shore, fire was made, tho
sufferers were attended to by Or. Ames and
given plenty Of warm milk. Some of them
were soon able to stand and stagger about.

Lieut. Greely,s Family.

NEwBuRYPoRT, Mass, July 1s-The first
information relative to the safety Of Greedy
received in this city was that telegraphed by
the United Press to its correspondent, who
lost no time in conveying the welcoming
intelligence to relatives of Lieut. Greedy. John
A. Greedy was first visited. He could scarcely
credit the fact that news from his brother
had been received so early in the season, but
was only too happy to hear he was alive.
Mrs. Fannie Greedy, the ieutenant's
mother, was next called upon. When the
welcome news was given to her, she
was completely overcome, as she
was expecting nothing for some weeks Mrs.
Greedy could hardly express her joy in
words, and though overwhelmed with happi-
ness at the thought of seeing her "boy" again,
she was deeply grieved and cast down at the
sad fate of his companions and fellow
sufferers.

THE OPEN POLAR SEA.

Lieut.. Greedy assured the United Press COR
respondent that he had clear proof that an
open polar sea existed, one of his party
drifting into it, but was blown back. He
says he agrees in this with Nordenskjold. A
valley running from near Lady Franklin
bay to the Western ocean, about sixty miles
wide, was discovered. 1t is bounded north
and south by continuous glaciers, and has no
apparent breaks. In the valley vegetation
was abundant, and the climate much
milder than usual.

A Story OF Starvation.

WASHINGTON City, July 1S.-On Thurs
day telegram was received at the navy de-
partment from Commander Schley, OF the
Greedy relief expedition, dated St Johns,
n. f., and stating that he had arrived there
with the Thetis, Bear and Lock Garry, hay
ing ON board Lieut. Greeley and five of his
party, who, with one who died shortly after
the rescue, were discovered June - near
Cape Sabine in Smiths sound. These six are
all the surviving of the twenty persons COM
posing the party originally, and are all we'll.
Twelve bodies of the dead of the party were
recovered and brought back on the Thetis.
The men were rescued just in time. Forty
eight hours later they would probably have
all been dead
The news of the rescue created profound
sensation, and was the chief topic OF CONVEX
sation at the war and navy departments
The sentiment was universally one of glad
ness at the rescue of the six men, mingled,
of course, with sadness for the loss OF the
remaining eighteen of the party. Many
well-informed officials had looked forward
with dread to a report that all would be
found dead, and some had felt apprehensive
about the safety of Capt. Schley and the
rescuing party. Both army and navy
officials feel highly gratified at the success OF
