New YoEK, October 2l.-Mary Parant,
dark complexioned, pretty young miss Of 10,
living with her father, Anthony Parant, at
No. 554 Eleventh avenue, disappeared from
her home four days ago. Her father made
active search for her and was assisted by the
officers of the Society for the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Children On Sunday night
Agent Young saw the young girl waking
through Houston street accompanied by a
tall, well dressed young man. He followed
them to Niblos Garden and arrested them
as they were about entering. In the Null
berry street police station, where the young
man was held on charge Of abduction, he
gave his name as William Nichols, aged %
years, q seaman, and declined TO give bis

Theatre when this girl stopped me and

Promptly Discharged.

Nrv ORLESHs. October 2l.-The Demo.
cratic canvass il the Third Congressional
district is the most earnest ever seen in the
State. The district has been strongly Re
publican, the majority in 1882 being 9,0js.
Gay, the Democratic candidate, who is a

Republican, is running wholly on the pro.
lection platform If elected he will act with

ton is attempted, when he may be expected

with a large class. The contest arouses
great interest, Gay held three meetings in
.ihibodeaux yesterday, one for Gay and
Cleveland and two for Gay and Blaine,
which were among the largest ever seen in
southwest Louisiana. The old system Of
barbecues has been revived and the negroes
of the district are devouring beef, mutton

Mr.. Gay would undoubtedly strengthen the
Pro,ectionis,s in Louisiana. IL a Protec-

likely to desert the protection policy.

ToLLuo, a.. ..uober 2l.-It leaked out
yesterday that Mr. Stephen V. A. Van
Horne, a wealthy young man who last
Wednesday was married to Miss sallie St.
John, a favorite in Toledo society, had de
serted his wife and fed 10 Europe. No
cause is known for his action. 1t is said
the couple were secretly married a few
months ago in Michigan, and Miss St. John
told her father, who sought out Van
Horne and and requested a second
marriage. Miss St. John was sick
in bed at the time, but the ceremony was
duly performed A petition for alimony
was entered in court yesterday morning by
Mrs. Van Horne and an injunction was
served on Van Horne's real estate, stocks,
ETC., restraining him from transferring
them. The scandal is the gossip Of the day,
not only because of the high position occu-
pied by the principals, but because OF the
peculiar circumstances surrounding the al
fair. Van Horne conduct is generrlly
condemned.

They send Out a Begging Circular, but Do
Not succeed in Raising Any Money.
New YORK, October 2l.-It is well known
that the Republican Campaign Committee
OF Brooklyn is badly pushed for money and
that a vigorous effort is being made to Sc
cure funds to make a decent Republican
showing in November. Circulars begging
for contributions have been widely distrib-
uted throughout the city and a PERSONAL
canvass has been made among the business
men. The result has not been very salts
factory, Judging from the expressions Of dis
content that may be heard at the headquar-
ters every day. The personal appeal to the
nanufacturers-who in the past have con-
triluted largely towards Republican sue
cess-to raise $4,000 for big Blaine
demonstration to offset the grand Cleveland
reception Of Thursday last was so discOur-
aging that it is possible that Steve Elkins
will be called upon to supply the committee
with sufficient soap to buy little enthu
Siasm.
The tons of circulars that have been dis
tributed among citizens who are supposed
70 have the interest of the Republican party
at heart. contain among others the follow
!ng statement:
Just now Brooklyn has the reputation Of
being the centre of the socalled Indepen,
dent movement (or Cleveland RePubhcans).
Genuine Republicans must not undertake
the strength Of this movement; 1t is revolt
against the Republican idea that the major
ity should rule"
This is clearly an admission Of fear on
the part Of the committee that the Demo
Gratis added by the honest and conscientious
Republicans, will bury the author Of the
Muligan letters and other famous literary
productions, under an avalanche ofvOtes
II is also clear that the business men Of
BROOKLYN do not desire to sink their money
in hopeless cause, or that they have
awakened to the fact that honesty in the
administration of Government affairs is the
best policy.

NEW YORK, October 2l.-Miss Carrie
Welton, the lady whose sad death upon

Gently, has left her fortune, amounting it is
stated, to between 100000 and $3OOOOO
to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty

the society, said to be a reporter The
matter is delicate one, on which ! feel

contents are ! cannot say, and | have tq ken

About how large is the estatey "As ]
tell you, have taken pains not to inform
myself OF the contents OF the will, but have
good ground for believing that our society

largest sum that we have ever received, al
though far larger amount will soon come
to us from another will; of this, however, /
am not at liberty to speak now.

reasons for believing that We shall be spared

THE GENERAL OUTLOOK GOOD.

TRENTON, October 2l.-Now that the
Ohio election is settled, New Jersey COM
maGds attention. 1t will be one of the
great backgrounds of the two parties for
the remainder of the campaign. Already
tremendous efforts have been put forth.
The Republicans are making the most
noise and doing the most blowing, because
their chances are the poorer. They are
flooding the State with speakers and docu-
ments. They are preparing to scatter an
enormous corruption fund all over theState
They expect to secure whatever of pur-
chaseable vote there may be. They are
fusing with Butler and trying to confuse
the Prohibitionists. In a word, they are
doing everything but converting Democrats
and preventing the Independent movement
from growing. They will make no gains
from the thoughtful vote. All they will ac-
complish will be the drawing through But
Ter, Of about FIVE thousand labor votes.
a Close State.
New JERSEY is a close State. The ma
jority given Hancock in 1850 was only
little over 1000. 1t must be taken as the
basis upon which to work in the fifteen
days lett to the canvass. Cleveland's ma
iority viii exceed that of Hancock, but the
Democracy cannot afford to rest on that as
surance. There are signs in abundance to
show that the Republicans viii make a gi-
gsntic effort to capture the labor vote.
Coercion is being used by the manufacture
ers to bring over their employees. Some of
the men in Patterson, Newark and this city
find it to their interests to parade IN Re-
publican professions. Whether they will
vote the Republican ticket for the same
reason remains to be seen. Threats that
Republican defeat means closed factories
and no work are heard on every side.
These threats will not be so etfectual as
they were four years ago The Republican
managers have made a skillful attempt to
capture the clergy Of all denominations.
The independents.
On the otl er hand there is an Independ-
ent vote that will far exceed any estimate
so far made The Independent State Com
mittce have no idea Of its strength. The
committee only figure on names actually on
their lists as known to he with them. The
committee estimate 5000 Independent
votes in the State. 1t will come near 10000
when the polls close There are hundreds
of farmers in the interior counties who have
hitherto voted the Republican ticket who
will vote for Cleveland. There are hun
dreds of Others who will not vote at all.
These men do not let their intentions be
known publicly They don't want to ap-
pear on any public list. You run across
these voters every day and are pledged to
secrecy when you learn their intentions.
The Butler Boom.
The Butler movement dwindles consider
ably. Butter meetings draw curious audi
ences, but the audiences are not i'll synpa-
thy with the speakers. If Butler polls 5000
votes in the State he will be doing right
we'll. If Cleveland does not have 5000 ma
jOrity it won't be because the vote is not
large enough.
