Cleveland Democrats Kicking.

Special to the Globe.
CLEVELAND, O., May 15.-The nomi-
nation of Joseph M. Poe to be appraiser of
customs has caused vast deal of dissatis-
faction among the local Democracy, with
whom Poe was far from popular. Charles
Cleveland, a nephew of the president was
strongly urged for the place by Congress
man Foran and others, and his, defeat is
regarded as victory for the Payne
element over that of Foran. Mr..
FOran said to a reporter to-day: II want
the people to know that am protesting
against the appointment of Poe. He is IN
fit and undeserving of the Office, and his APP
pointment is in contrarity with the policy
which seeks to put experienced men who
are identified with mercantile pursuits in
such positions. l think that thousands of
local Democrats would sign a petition pro-
testing against Poe, who may be able to
tell the difference between good and rotten
potatoes, but who knows nothing about
United States customs. Upon hearing of
Poe's appointment while at Columbus,
telegraphed the president as follows:
COLUMBUS, O.. May IL, 1Ss5.-Hon.
Grover Cleveland, President OF the United
States, Washington: The evening dis
patches say that Joseph NJ. Poe has been
appointed appraiser of customs at Cleve-
land. If this be true, [ most emphatically
protest against the appointment. and re-
spectfully request that commission be
not issued until the people of Cleveland,
to whom the appointment will be pre-
eminently unsatisfactory, because of his
manifest untitneSs, can be heard from.

Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, May 15.-The most interest
ing topic to-day has been the doings of
Poundmaker's braves near Battleford yes
terday. There is naturally much disQuiet-
ude over the affair. 1t is feared that pos
sibly the Indians will capture the other
supply trains on the way, and also
that the action of the savages
presageS an ail-summer campaign against
them. The transfers supposed to be cap
tured are nearly all Montana men. The
names of those known to be with OK teams
are given as follows by the Hudson Bay
company officials: W. McNeill,J. G. Petty,
A. w. Freebord, G. F. Martron,
W. McKane, F. Westaway, D. Mclean,
G. Barnes, John Spear, G. Barnes. John
Shera, G. Brodie, F. J. Mcneil. Frank
Cox, William Fish, James Fish, Thomas

Brodie. The Battleford mail that
has been accommodating at Swift Current for
weeks was on the captured train. 1t APP
pears that Constable Elliot of the mounted
police, who was shot, was not killed out
right, but fell off the horse wounded
and was seen by comrades making
for the woods. 1t is almost GER
tain that he has been captured by the
Indians There is no news of importance
from Batoche to-day. Middleton intends
to go on to Prince Albert and after making
a disposition for the settlement of the af-
fairs of that district he will probably take
force of mounted men and go on to Bat
tleford to take charge of operations against
the Indians. Nothing further has been
heard of Riel. Gen. Strange has been NOV
ing east from Edmonton and may have an
encounter with Big Bear before long. He
also expects trouble with Bobtail and

MiddletOn'S Idea.

OTTAWA, May 15.-In the commons to-
day the minister of militia read report of
the battle at Batoche, received from Gen.
Middleton, who thus closes: 81 cannot, of
course, be certain, but 1 am inclined to
think the complete smash of the rebels has
pretty well broken the back Of the rebellion.
AT any rate it will, trust, have dispelled
the idea that the half-breeds and Indians
can withstand the attack of resolute whites,
properly led, and will tend to remove the
unaccountable scare that seems to have en-
tered into the minds of so many in the
Northwest as regards our proves and pow
ers in the fighting of Indians and half
breeds. There is not sign of the enemy

reply is that the latter can be reached like
any other business man. He is always

good, but as most all young writers think
their own productions OF this character
he is obliged to inilict much pain by the
almost inevitable reply, Declined, with

generally makes Short work of it, A
glance at the title, Il rapid survey of the
locality, and tlen an occasional dipping
into the middle and careful perusal OF
the opening AID the close, are enough to
decide the case. Authors may complain
that their works do lot receive justice,
but if they saw the immense quantity of
manuscript sent in they would not be sur
p.isad ri the rapiIity with which their
offerings are handled.
Authors, however, should not always be

at East Jamaica retired to rest al an
early hour, being tired after attending
the celebration of the glorious Fourth
at Sauth Londonderry, laying his
watch on q light-stand at the head of
his bed, and his pants in chair near
the foot Of his bed. In one of the peck
cts of his pants was his wallet contain
ing some 50 to 40 dollars in money, in
two apartments; in the other pocket a
heart case containing some two or three
dollars in change On arising, Sunday
morning he at first missed his watch,
and futher examination disclosed the
fact that, although the wallet and heart
case were in their places no money was
left in either, so that he was forced to
awake to the fact that some one had
robbed him, while sleeping, of watch
and all the money about his clothes and
quietly took their departure without
leaving their card. The only sign he
was able to find of any one entering or
leaving his room was one window, in
the parlor, in front of his bedroom
door lacked about ga of an inch of be-
