New Haven Independents.

An Enthuslastic Meeting Against
 Blaine and Logan-stmeon E. Bald
 win Addresses the MeeLtnK-What
 General Russell Thinks About Mag
 netfsm-Ths Officers Elected.
 Room No. 27 Insurance building was crowded to overfiowing last evening when the independent Republicans of New Haven held their first meeting to protest against the nomination of Blaine and Logan for Presi- dent and Vice President of the United States. The meeting was called to order by ". h.. Carmalt, who proposed the name of Profess sor Simeon E. Baldwin for president of the meeting Mir. Baldwin was unanimously elected Vice presidents were chosen as follows: Professor George P. Fisher, J. B. Sargent, c. P. Armstrong, John Ruff, Profess BOT William D. Whitney, c. s. Warehouse. Secretaries were chosen as follows: Eli Whit ney, jr, James F. Colby, Porter c. Moulton, Rev. Stuart Means.
 On taking the chair MT. Baldwin said: II have the honor to preside over 8 meeting of Republicans who are not afraid to call them selves independents. I am sure that we all have feeling of sorrow because we are obliged to take this action. I was cradled in the Republican party, and voted for Lincoln and for Buckingham, Connecticut's war gov ernor. Then the name Of the party meant something. It had high aims, some of which have been accomplished. But there has been 8 change. As we look around we find that the leaders of the party are no 1 longer Lincoln and Buckingham. The of. fee of President is the highest gift of the | people, and blame no man for making il the ambition of his life, but he should make i his life worthy of his ambition. None but the mere party hacks believe Blaine to be such a man. We all know his record. In al movements against subordinating public ends to party ends his voice has been silent, his influence against us. It would be sad indeed if there were none who could see tht danger the party is in. We are Republicans but we are no. slaves. We know what fiber Chicago platform is nothing but an attempt to catch votes; it is platform of dema rooues and fit only for demsgogue to stand on. It is right and best for us to utter oul solemn protest against this nomination. In dfviauai responsibility brought az here, ana ourselves" MT. Baldwin's remarks wer, l frequently interrupted by applause.
 Morris E. Tyler offered the following reso lutions:
 Resolved, That the national Republican convention recently held in the city of Chi cago has in its platform departed from tn principles on which the party was founded and from the purposes for which the part, exists.
 Resolved, That that convention has stiI further disappointed those who desire pur administration, and an advance in the stan dard of political action, by the nomination O James G. Blaine and John A. Logan
 Resolved. That it is the duty of every ma who is in sympathy with the principles o which the Republican party was founded t stand by those principles, even though tn party may desert them.

RaIlroaders On a Riot-Italian Labor
 CTS Threaten Death If They Arc Not
 Paid.
 E1KroN, Md, June 2S.-The riet among the Italian workmen on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad at Principio's furnace is at an end. Sheriff Smith with posse visited the scene this afternoon and found John Wallace, son of the abaconding contractor, besieged in a shanty with some two hundred laborers sur- rounding she building. They had rope ready to string him up unless the money was forthcoming. Sheriff Smith conferred with the original contractors, Messrs Harmon and Mcaugh, and they gave assurance that the men would be paid whether Wallace turned up or not. When the men received this guarantee they gave up the offensive and MT. Wallace, jr., was allowed to depart. The riot at Principle seems to be contagious as g re. port has just reached here of a serious dis turbance among the laborers on the line of the road at Elk Mills, three miles north oi here. The failure of sub.contractors ap- pears to have been chronic on this road.

 Fleeing by ThOusands from Touloo- Terrible Ravages of the ScOurge' PARIS June 23.-An alarming outbreak of
 cholera has occurred at Toulon, the press of
 that city and vicinity having combined in an attempt to conceal the facts. It has been just learned to what an extent the epidemic has reached. There have been thirty deaths since Sunday .and the rate of mortality has increased each day. A panic has seized upon the people Eight thousand persons
 have fled the city and thousands of the resi- dents of the poorer quarters have been busted
 from their homes and driven into the suburbs by the people and are new camping in the
 fields. The bodies of victims of the disease are buried in large trenches and covered with auicklime to hasten decomposition. None have been buried in the regular cemeteries
 for fear of giving opportunity for the 1nfec- ton to spread. Great terrer is shown by
 the inhabitants of the surrounding country upon the approach of any of the refugees from the city lest they should carry with them the germs of the dreaded malady. It
 is claimed, however, by the physicians that
 the disease is not Asiatic cholera, but IS o1 sporadic origin.
