HENDRICKS SPEAKS.
And Says Grover Cleveland Must MOI
Withdraw from the Ticket.

DUBUQUE, Ind, Aug. 27.-The Herald will
publish tomorrow the following letter from
Gov. Hendricks, received by citizen of this city,
in answer to an inquiry concerning the rumors
affecting change in the national Democratic
ticket, consequent upon the reports published
against Gov. Cleveland:
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 81, 1884.-I have your let
ter of the 18th inst. l cannot consider with ia
vor your suggestions Of change in the national
ticket. The action of the convention cannot
now be reconsidered and must stand, and I think
it right to stand. 1 do not agree with you in
respect to the probable result. 1 think the prob
abilities are favorable to the success Of our
ticket. The Cleveland scandal will not have
weight with the people, and ought not to have
weight; it is unworthy the national contest
Three times Gov. Cleveland has stood the test of
| a popular canvas-once for the Office of mayor of
his own city-and each time he received the en-
dorsement of his neighbors by vote largely
above bis party strength. Whatever there may
have been of the scandal existing before that, it
is not just either to him the people now to re-
vive it. The public welfare requires that he be
judged by his public record; by his eapability
and fitness for the discharge of responsible and
important public duties and not by an old and
exploded SANDER.
Very respectfully yours, etc.,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-Edwin D. Bailey, Sec
retary of the national committee of the American
party, says tonight. that Senator A. G. Pomeroy,
nominated for president will withdraw in favor
of st. John. When the convention Of the party
was in session st. Johns name was prominently
mentioned by the leaders in connection with the
presidency. 1t was thought, however, his nomi-
nation, at that time, would prevent his securing
the nomination of the Prohibition party at Pitts
burg, and without that nomination the American
party did not desire his name as the head of
their ticket. resolution was passed by the
convention of the American party giving the ma
tional committee authority to supply any vacancy
which might occur. Next to st. John ex-senator
Pomeroy was said to be the choice of the conyen-
ton. A conference was held with the
latter, and at his own suggestion
Baily says it was agreed he should be nominated
with the understanding that il st. John should be
nominated at Pittsburg he would withdraw in his
favor. Pomeroy was present at the Prohibition
convention, and to number of prominent per-
sons after the nomination of St. John, he signi-
to the agreement at Chicago. The national con-
vention of the American party will meet either at
Chicago or in this city, early in September, when
their presidential candidate will recommend that
the vote of the party be given to st. John. Mr..
Baily says there is no doubt but that the action
of Pomeroy will be acquiesced in. The with
drawal in favor Of st. John, it il estimated, will
give him 1000 votes.

The Post Office Department Ring.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-Under the contract
for furnishing the post office envelopes recently
annulled by the postmaster general and the pre-
vious contracts, the envelopes supplied were re-
quired TO be OF certain exact dimensions. 1t
appears upon investigation that the size required
were different from those kept in stock by the
envelope manufacturers generally. The effect
OF the requirement was to prevent great bulk
of manufacturers from bidding upon the pro-
posas, as extensive and costly changes in their
machinery would be required for manufacturing
the sizes, which would not be warranted by the
profits from the contract for single year. The
result at last OF the letting to limit the number
OF bidders to six firms to obvlate this difficulty
The proposals just issued for the supply Of these
envelopes provides that the sizes may be slightly
larger than the dimensions given, but no smaller
thus allowing all manufacturers to compete for
the contract. The critic says: at is seriously
intimated that collision existed in the post
Office department with the contractors, and that
the business OF Postmaster General Gresham is
TO consult the president before taking the final
action in the premises, and it is not improbable
that the head OF prominent post office official
will roll into the basket.

The third game of the st. Paul-Winona series
resulted in an easy victory for the home team,
and right here it is proper to state that the St.
Paul club has played three remarkable games in
as many days, having scored a total of fourteen
runs, while the visiting teams have failed to
reach the plate at all. The St. Paul battery yes
terday was Arundel and Dealey, and they played
together in perfect form, no passed balls being
recorded and but two safe hits. Brewer and
Harter occupied the points for the visitors. The
formers pitching was cratic and easy to hit
when in reach of the bat. Dunn led with the
willow, making total of four bases, Hengle
coming next with three, Barnes and Dealey fol
towing with two singles each, and everybody eX-
cept Carroll and Arundel getting at least safe
drive. Dunn closed the career of fourteen men
at first base without an error and Hengle played
faultless game, making a beautiful catch of
Connors' fly in the second inning. O'Brien's
stop of Umback's grounder in the seventh in
ming was greeted with merited applause Wer-
rick fumbled the first ball that came to his field,
but braced up Immediately and played the rest of
the game in excellent form. The best play made
by the visitors was Rainey's fine catch Of line
fly. McGunnige and Umback covered their
bases well, but the rest of the team came in for
share OF the error column. Walsh and Patten
were the only members who hit safe and they
with Hartcr and Brewer, who got life on errors
in the first inning, were the only men left on
bases. Bradley, the Winona pitcher, umpired
the game in a listless manner, and the contest
ing teams and the audience were equally dis
gusted with him. The result in figures is con-
tained in the appended score sheet:

Xenia, Ohio. Bank Failure.

XENIA, Ohio, Aug. 27.--The Second
National Bank closed its doors this morning.
There was run on the bank yesterday, but pay
ments were made promptly that confidence
was restored, and many renewed deposites.
Cashier j. s. Ankeney has gone west. The

by the comptroller of the currency and no state
ment of its condition has yet been made
Cashier Ankeney has been engaged in grain
transactions with X. NJ. Smart, to whom the
bank, through Ankeney, recently made large
advances. Smart gave mortgage to secure
this money, but the directors were not satisfied

The Dudes too much for the Milwaukees
yesterday, defeating them by a score of to q,
and they played without single fielding error.
Their batting, however, lighter than usual
Walker and Kinzie occupied the points for the
home club, while the visitors battery was Bald
win and Falch. Walker and Baldwin are evenly
matched in the box, as the full score will show
Both were wild yesterday, and each gave four
men their first base called balls. Kinzie' 8
catching was far superior to Fach's work behind
the bat. He had two passed balls and Falch had
three. Where Kinzie out-played Falch was in
throwing. Griffin, of the Milwaukees, proved
trump. Twice he pasted the ball
over the right field fence for
a home run, and in one instance he brought in
another man. Casey's score was the best of the
day. In the field he captured his proverbial
three difficult hies, and he distinguished himself
at the Dat with single and two-base hit. and
got two OF the six runs Audrus played brill
liant game throughout and made three base
hit. His fine assists in the eight inning merited
the liberal applause accorded him. Reid. who
usually wields the willow with disastrous results
to the opposing club. failed TO get hit but he
played an admirable fielding game. The Milwau-
KEGS were weak In the field. especially in the
first inning. In the course OF the game they

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-The bears were out in
full force this morning. and ratified prices down
in lively manner for a short time. The decline
brought in buyers for the Grangers, and ST. Paul
recovered from below 83 to above 81 in a few
moments. 1t was very evident before the noon
hour arrived that the cliques had made up their
minds to support the stocks, and the shorts had
topay dearly for their amusement during the
early part of the day. The gains in st. Paul,
Northwestern and Union Pacific were about 3
points, very respectable showing for a few
hours work. The Vanderbilts were not
much behind, both Central & Hud-
son and Lake Shore were active
and strong. There was no lack of activity with
a well distributed business. Reactions, though
slight, occurred at the last hour, but there was
at no time any particular pressure of stocks.
The volume of business was lighter, which was
quite natural after the excitement earlier, Della
ware 81 Lackawanna redeemed itself oday. The
break yesterday evidently part of the pro-
gramme to invite short selling of it, The move,
ment of grain along the line of the Northern
Pacific promises to tax that road to the utmost
in handling it. The common and preferred
stocks looked better to-day. At the last the
market was somewhat dull, but in the main
firm.
Reviewing the market; A. NJ Day says; 1.-The
market was sold down the first hour, but rallied
on the buying of the clques and has since been
strong. Union Pacific and New York Central
led the rise. We believe that no large bear com
bination has been made, but leading bears indi
vidually have been large sellers. Woerishoffel
was very bearish in New York Central, Lacka-
wanna and Lake Shore. The bears rely for sue
cess upon what they believe to be the present
condition of affairs, viz: too great and rapid
rise since July / {; an absence of good buying by
the public, which it was supposed the advance
and holding ofprices would incite probabilities OF
a much smaller export demand for cereals and
produce than was anticipated; the unfavorable
relations between trunk competing lines east
and west the falling off in earnings and espec
tally the outlook for the Vanderbilt roads, and
the fact that the bull ciques here had to hold Oh
and add to their purchases. The bull cliques
on the other hand. will be aided by cheap money
and the prestige Of recent success. The market
is therefore likely to be lively one for while
with first one side on top, and then the other
We advise the taking of small profits. The shor
interest has increased somewhat and loaninl
rates are a little sitter.

How He Came to Settle In the Indian

| FIT. SMITH, Ark, Aug. 27.-An Associated
Press reporter to-day visited Capt. D. r. Payne
and his Oklahoma boomers, where they are held
prisoners at the camp of Lieut.. jackson and an
attachment of the Ninth cavalry, in the Cherokee

Cherokee, but in the United States.
I organized a colony of five hundred and
settled at Rock Falls, four miles south Of Kun

us out. told him, not being his soldiers, we
were willing to go into court to have the ques-
tion settled, and asked him to lay the matter
before the secretary of war. He refused. Next
morning six companies of the Ninth cavalry ar
rived, accompanied by Indian Agent Tuft, a
clerk, Cherokee Indian, and arrested j. B.
Cooper editor of the Oklahoma Chief, in charge
OF the colonists, and others. Most of the men
were absent at the time. The cattle men and

miners paraded the streets of Greenfield early
this morning. and then marched to Nulet mine,
but were ordered off. They halted a short dis
tance away, and as the men went to work some
of the strikers met them and endeavored to pur-
suade them to join the strike. One man became
indignant and would not come ont, and the min
ers replied; .'we'l bring you out If you don't
come willingly" Trouble is feared tomorrow,
as Deputy Sheriff Mcclure says, If the men con-
duct themselves as they did to-day he will order
the whole crowd under arrest. Miners intimate
that they will not submit to any more of their
number being arrested on the conspiracy charge
and lively time is anticipated Mcclure at
tempts to put his threat into execution Another
camp will be established near Mules mines. in
