Opposing Cleveland,

NEW YORK, Aug. ia large mum.
Der of Independent Democrats of the
Nineteenth Assembly District met last
night for the purpose of organizing in
favor of Blaine aud Logan. Mr.. Viii.
liam Sullivan called the meeting to
order, and denounced Governor Cleve-
land rs the friend Of monopolies. He
said that with Blaine as President
there would be foreign policy pur-
sued by this country of which all
Americans might be proud.
The Democratic party" said Mr..
Sullivan, "is a mermaid party, halt
fish and half man. As Rev. Mr..
Beecher, Mr.. Schurz, the Harpers and
Puck came in the front door the Irish
supporters of the party were hustled
out the back door. l., for one, say that
we have gone out to stay"
Mr.. Patrick Logan declared that Gov
ernor Cleveland had done nothing in
the interests of the working classes, who
would now proceed to bury him so deep
that Gabriels trumpet would fail 10
waken him on resurrection morning.

LONDON, Aug. 13-There is no longer

has lately led to violent outbreaks at

The oifi eial and semi i-official journals,

There can be little doubt, however,

The sinister activity of the revolution

many cases the punishment has been

law as member of firm in the grocery
trade and continued in this business twelve
years, retiiinp on account of ill-health with
competent fortune nearly forty years ago.
From that time he made his health his first
care, but largely increased his fortune by
Judicious investments, and has been active
in public and charitable enterprises al
though refusing public Office.
To his great liberality the citizens of Gin
cinnati are greatly indebted for institutions
that have made their city famous. To the
Music Hall building fund ne pledged in the
first place S125,oO0, and before the building
was completed had increased his gifts 10
nearly 100000, almost as much more being
given by other citizens and the city giving
the site. Among his other gifts are $40. 900
to the Art Museum fund, $4,000 to the
Exposition buildings, 900 to buildings
for the College of Music, and $4,000 for it's
endowment. 1t is understood that in his
will S500,000 is distributed 10 charitable and
educational gifts. These are only portion
of his benefactions. IN trial in court
few years ago he testified that his gifts to
the Catholic church, Of which he was de-
voted member, then amounted to 100000.
Dir. Springer was not one of those who give
only 10 large sums to public objects. His
private charities cannot be recorded for they
were commonly known only to himself and
the recipients, but the poor knew the way
to his door and the tenderness of his per-
sonal compassion. His physician says that
when he was called to see him on Monday
he discoursed freely of the hard times, say
ing il was positively painful to notice the,
number of applicants for help at his own
door. An intimate friend several years ago
said that Mr. Springer's personal charities
in small sums to poor people whom he be-
lieved to be worthy amounted to $40, 900 an
nually. 1t is not to be wondered at that
the loss of so noble citizen and benefactor
shoold be cause of mourning in the COM
munity. The bells were tolled aud public
aud private buildings displayed mourning
emblems.

One of the Lords Stewards.

By the death of Reuben r. Springer, last
Wednesday morning, Cincinnati loses Gil
zen who has done very much for the honor
and prosperity of the city. He had been
feeling slightly unwell since Sunday, but
his physicians could discover only slight
symptoms of malarial affection for which
quinine was prescribed. The patient took
his breakfast in bed on Wednesday morning.
He then arose, and while sitting, partially
dressed, in chair suddenly expired. He
was in the eigbty-fifth year of his age, but
still actively interested 10 business and phil
anthropc enterprises and during the week
previous to bis death had ATTENDED meetings
of boards of which he was member. His
paternal ancestors came from Sweden TO
Delaware more than two hundred years ago.
His mother was Que of he Runyon family
OF New Jersey.
Mr., Springer was born in Kentucky, OBJ
tanned such school education as he had
before he was thirteen years old, when
he became a clerk under his father In
the Frankfort, KY, postoffice, and, on the
death of his father, postmaster. After two
years in the government service he became
clerk on river steamer, and being quick
and sagacious in discovering opportunities
he soon became an owner in steamboat
lines. After twelve years Of steanboating,

ern affairs, because he was not Confeder-
ate brigadier, his idea being that Cleveland
would not want TO be very thick with ex-
Confederate generals. But Cleveand's re-
mark that he should be guided largely by
the advice of Hampton, Colquitt and Cor
don has dsaoused Sena'or Brown of the
pleasant notion he was cherishing and made
him very wrathy. Olher Southern Senators
also do not like this idea of making these
three Senators the invited dictators in all
Southern matters, and threaten to make a
row If it is put in practice. Bayard hitnself
does not quite like G eyeland's idea of call
ing an Independent into the cabinet. He
wants it to be composed entirely of Demo-

Ex-Gov. St. John pronounces the state
raeut that he offered to sell out in the recent
campaign for pecuniary consideration an
infamous and malicious lie" he may not
have offered to sell himself, but it is certain
that the effect of his candidacy was to sell
the National Prohibition party, or SO much
of IL as supported him, to the Democracy. If
he didn't make the Democracy pay for it be
wasn't smart.
