GOV. CLEvELAND's INTENDED.
Gossip Says He Is to Marry Miss Love
Dashing Woman of Buffalo.

Dashing Woman of Buffalo.
A New York correspondent telegraphs
as follows: An interesting report comes
to me, on good authority, from Buffalo to
the effect that society there has settled
down to the belief that Gov. Cleveland
and Miss Maria Love, a well-known soci-
ETY. woman of that city, are engaged and
are soon to be married. Miss Love is de-
scribed as a dashing woman, 40 years of
age or more, who for many years has
been a figure in Buffalo society. Years
ago she was at the head of a small private
school in that city. She is a sister of Mrs.
Thomas Carey, with whose family, her
parents being dead, she lives. When
Gov. Cleveland visited Buffalo a few
weeks ago, the private dinner which was
given him was at the Carey mansion.
The young people of the Carey and
Rumsey families have intermarried, and
are all addicted to the fashionable outdoor
sports, driving stylish turnouts, polo ten
mis-, and the like. The Carey boys are
among the Buffalo Independents, who
worked zealOusly for Cleveland's success.
Miss Love is well known in Newport and
New York society, and has been abroad
several times. The family is said to have
a weakness for somewhat startling social
surprises that astonish more staid people,
and Miss Love inherits this tendency. She
is said to have money and bestows her at
tentiOn upon polo matches and similar So
cial amusements. Those who know her
say that, if she becomes mistress of the
White House, as is generally predicted in
Buffalo social circles, she will have
brilliant reign. Thus far the supposed en-
gagement has only been talked over in
private, and l make the rumor public for
what it is worth.

BANQUET TO SENATOR GORMAN.
Baltimore Merchants Wish to Ac-
knowledge His Faithful Work.

Baltimore Merchants Wish to Ac-
knowledge His Faithful Work.
A movement is on foot, says a Balti-
more special, TO give a banquet to Senator
A. 2. German when he arrives home from
the scene of his labOrs in New York.
Many Democratic leaders throughout the
country will be invited. On Thursday
night, in the rooms of the Crescent Club,
the matter was first broached and the
project was warmly approved by those
present, among them being Messrs. John
X. Ober, ThOs. W. johnson, Robt. NJ. SUIT
ton, j. E. r. Crabbe and a number
of the other members of the club who are
we'll known in the political world.
Although it is proposed to give the ban
quet under the auspices of the Crescent
Club, it is not intended that it should be
considered as being representative of any
faetiOnal feeling, but purely as a mark Of
honor to the paTty's political leader. The
gentlemen named, who are representa-
tive merchants of the city, will arrange
for subscriptions from other leading
merchants to the banquet, which it is de-
sired to make peculiarly an expression OF
the feelings of the merchants towards Mr..
German. The latter has been written to
to learn when it will be convenient and
agreeable to him to attend. and the date
for the BANQUET will be fixed.

BLAINE ON HIS DEFEAT.

by the Defeated Knight.

Burchard' Three RS Bitterly Lamented d
by the Defeated Knight.
BOSTON, MASS, Nov. 16.-The Jour-
ndES Augusta Me- correspondent sends
the following account of an interview
had with Blaine yesterday: 81 asked Mr..
Blaine what he thought would be the re-
suit of the count in New York, and he
replied that he had no more means of
knowing than an unborn child. He had
from the first had no other desire than
that a fair count should be made, and, so
far as he was personally concerned, he
would be content with either re-
suit. Success would not elate him
and defeat would not depress him.
He was engaged in congenlal and
profitable work which had been INTERRUPT
ted by the campaign, and the deep regret
that he would feel at the Democratic tri-
umph would be altogether for his party
and country, not for himself. 81 lived
too near the Presidency in 1S81,'' MIR.
Blaine added, after a long pause, "and
have too keen a sense OF its burdens, its
embarrassments and its perils, to be
unduly anxious for the office" To
an inquiry as to how he ac-
counted for the cl0seness of the
election in New York, Mr.. Blaine said +:
w Gll3 bhO AOSo DI but DOlb
of the Independent Republicans and the
far larger loss from the action of Repub-
lican ProhibitiOnists, the wonder at first
sight is that the Democrats did not carry
the State by large majority as they con-
fideutly expected they would. This re-
suit was prevented by great accessiOns to
the Republican ranks of Irish and Irish
American voters and wOrkingmen of all
classes who sustained me because of my
advocacy Of the protective tariff. They
believe and believe. wisely that free trade
would reduce their wages"
f'You really think, then, that you got a
considerable Irish vote in New YOrk?v
''Oh, | had thousands upon thousands,
and should have had many more but for
the intolerant and utterly improper re-
mark of DIR. Burchard, which was quoted
everywhere TO my prejudice, and in many
places attributed to myself, though it
was in the highest degree distasteful and
offensive to me. But a lie, you know,
travels very fast, and there was not time
before the election to overtake and correct
that one, and so suffered for it,"

THE sTRIBUNE' ON THE RESULT
1t Is the Duty of Every Good Citizen to
Accept 1t.

NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-The New York
Tribune this morning editorially says !:
"Gov. Cleveland is elected President by a
plurality of little over ], 100 in a vote of
nearly 100000 in this State. On the
morning after the election we believed
there was plurality of few hundreds
smaller than this on the other side,
and were subsequently confirmed
in that belief by the confident
statements received by committees
as to errors and worse in the counties of
Albany, Ulster, Sullivan, New York,
Kingsa and other counties. The Albany
fraud proved to affect only county office,
and in the other cases the boards of can
vassers have made only small reductions.
We profoundly regret this result, but it is
the duty of every good citizen to accept it
and to give to the President-elect the
respect the Office demands"

CUT HIS OWN THROAT.
Macon the Scene of GhastIy Suicide
Murder Theories Secuted.

MACON, Nov. 16.-Sundays are be-
coming days of crimes, accidents and
deaths in Macon. This morning, at 6 80
O'Clock, John Reichmann, a well-known
German tailor, employed by Powell &
Wlnship, was found dead on the bed at
his room in Guernsey's block, on Cotton
avenue, by negro named Charles Har-
per, who brought Reichmann his weeks
washing every Sunday morning. When
Harper arrived he knocked repeatedly
against Reichmann's door, but got no
response. 1t was locked with the kew on
the inside. Harper looking through the
transom over the door saw Reichmann on
the bed covered with blood. Harper fell
back in fright and gave an alarm. Sew
eral parties responded. Another kew was
obtained and the door was opened. A
horrible sight was presented. Reichmann
had made terrible cuts on his throat with
razor, nearly seVering his head from his
shoulders. His head was thrown back on
the pillow and the eyes were wide open
and wildly staring. His right arm and
hand were uplifted near the throat, as if
they had been seized with paroXysms
after infiicting the fearful wounds. A
razor was found bloody and open, lying
by the side of the bed. He had on his
shirt, socks and pants. The bedding and
clothes were thoroughly saturated with
blood.
SUSPICIOUS OF MURDER.
Nine of the Coroner's jury declared
that in their opinion Reichmann came to
his death by his own hands. Three of the
jurors thought that murder had been COM
mitted, as there were several suspicious
circumstances. Bloody finger prints were
found on the head and forehead of the de-
ceased. All the bureau drawers were
open with the locks sprung, but the con-
tents of the drawers were in good order,
apparently not having been disturbed by
any one. Reichmann was known by
several to have had quite a sum of money
in his possession, and robbery and muir
der was surmised by some, but this
latter theory lost weight when the jury
opened his trunk and found two
watches, and 800 in gold in pocketbook.
Witnesses testified that Reichmann was
hard whisky drinker, and also COM
planned of ill-health. He spoke of return
ing soon to live in Germany, where he
had father, wife and two children. En-
plOyes testified that Reichmann had not
been at work for several days prior to his
death. Reichmann's saccount-book showed
that he had sent 5000 to his wife since
August last. German friends buried him
here to-day. The verdict of thee oroner's
jury was that Reichmann came to his
death by his own hands.

ONE OF THE wEIGHTY ARGUMENTS

advanced by the Blaine orators during the
late campaign as conclusive against Cleye-
lands election, was that Cleveland had never
been in Washington. As the gorgeous DR.,
George B. Loring, Commissioner of Agrlcul-
ture puts 1t, cleveland has never seen the
Washington Monument" OF course. this was
a very effective reply to the charges made
against the personal and political Character
of the Republican candidate! / wonder that
Cleveland was elected in spite Of it to sit in
Washington's seat. Perhaps it was because
the argument was not true; for Cleveland has
been in w Washington, as l learn from himself
through friend who saw him this week sew
eral times. he will resign his Governorship
about Jan. and come down here to live for
four years or so.

ton OF the completion of the Washington
Monument on Feb. y, to which we are all
