Rampant Rioters.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Oct. 1S.-A crowd of
10000 people, among whom were a large
number of roughs, gathered on the wharf
this afternoon to join an excursion to Davis
Island dam, where Capt Paul Boyton was
advertised to give an exhibition. The Off
GERS of the steamer were Overpowered and
the boats loaded to the waters edge. On
this account they were afraid to make the
trip, and announced that the eX
hibition would be given before the
wharf. This announcement led to
riot, during which the roughs,
with axes and other implements, almost cut
up the excursion barges Edna and Alice,
and compelled the officers to jump in the
river to save their lives, because they would
not refund the money taken for tickets. A
large force of policemen was ordered to the
wharf, but order was not restored for
long time. The ringleaders were arrested.
Only one man was slightly injured.

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 1S.-The Catholic
Visitor, the exponent of Catholicism in
Virginia, has a long editorial arraigning
Rev. DR.. j. l.. NJ. Curry, the newly-ap-
pointed minister to Spain, for discourse
delivered by him here on May 70, 1876. In
that year Dr.. Curry went to Rome as an
evangelist. He remained but a short time,
and shortly after his return to this city he
delivered this discourse. On that occasion
DR.. Curry. in giving his experience of his
evangelical mission to Rome, said:
s'Talk of infidelity. There is some
thing worse, more difficult to overcome.
That is Roman Catholicism, worse even
than cannibalism. The difficulties III Italy
of converting Roman Catholics to Chris
tianity, and distinctively to the Baptist
church thereof, are even greater than were
those in the South sea islands or in China.
Romanism has been incorporated into the
very life of the people of Europe, and has
been corroding cancer. eatlnY the public
conscience and emasculating everything
like spiritual life. RomaniSm in this cOun-
try, as modified by our free institutions and
restraining itself from policy, can form
no conception of what evil
its blghting influences are in
Europe. The same power that converted
heather England and heather America to
Christianity can convert heather Asia and
Africa, but Rome it never will or can con-
vert. The editorial in the Catholic Visitor
declares that man who could give utter
ance to these denunciations is unfit to rep
resent the United States in Catholic
country. The editor intimates that he will
place the information, in connection with
the affair, before the president.

Malone and Cameron's Fight.

SpSclal 10 Une GlODe.
RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 1S.-The breach
between Malone and Cameron, growing
out of attacks recently made upon the gov
ernor by newspapers friendly to Malone, is
likely to be widened instead of being recon-
ciled. Gov. Cameron has recently had sew
eral conversations with personal friends in
regard to making reply to these attacks.
He will tomorrow give out an interview to
the press which will embody his reply to
the charges made against him. 1t is
believed the statement given below will con-
tain the substance of what Gov. Cameron
will say tO-marrow:
Il have reserved, ever since the Republi-
can convention, my right to support John
Wise and the ticket of which he is the head.
Since then 1 have said nothing to alter my
obligation in that respect-that is, / have
been for Wise, Wood and Blair. Now, Mr.
Malone, through the Philadelphia Press and
other channels, chooses to attack my fealty
to the Republican ticket. He is mistaken.
/ am entirely and cordially in favor of Mr..
Wise and the ticket of which he is the head
have written and spoken always and
everywhere, ssin that behalf, butlnow, having
seen the attack on me through the Philidel-
phia Press and other papers by Gen. Ma
hone, do not hesitate to say that Mr. Wise
must declare his innocence of any RESPONSE
bility, else 1 shall reserve and use the right to
be neutral or aggressive as may please in
this contest. I shall make resolute defense
of myself and attack any one who antagonizes
any personal action of mine or my official
course
The governor said that he would shortly
answer all charges that had been made
against him.

One of the strangest of the many strange
cases that come before the United States
courts here was disposed of at the recent
term. Well-known gentlemen vouch for
the fact as here given. Several months ago
white youth in the upper section of this
county was sent by his aunt, who lives near
him and was sick, to buy small quantity
of whisky for her. He got the liquor;
and On his way back home stopped at the
house of his uncle and told his errand. The
uncle asked for drink of the whisky, and
was refused, but at last offered to pay 10
cents for the dram, arguing that the boys
aunt would have enough liquor left for her
needs, and would be glad to have the
money. The offer was accepted and some
time later the uncle lodged information
against his nephew. charging him with be-
ing retail liquor dealer without having
paid the special tax. The nephew was
arrested and bound over, and the uncle and
his two sons were summoned as witnesses.
The prisoner understood that the case
was a put up job" to give his relatives
the opportunity to spend several weeks
here as witnesses at a dollar and a half a
day, and swore he would rot in jail before
he would let them profit by the transac-
ton. He therefore advanced to the bar on
the second day of the term and pleaded
guilty. although he knew he had perfect
defense and was so assured. The witnesses
were, therefore, dismissed with very small
tickets. The judge was informed of the
circumstances and made the sentence very
light. The prosecutors probably netted
only ABOUT S3 apiece, whereas their gains
would nave been from $50 to $40 each if
the case had gone to trial.-Greenville Is.

a shot gun loaded with buckshot caused
considerable havoc. Two bullets struck
Countee, one in the head and the other
passing through his chin, inficting painful,
but not dangerous wounds. L. L. Courtee,
brother of the minister, was shot in the
back, and also through the chin. His
wounds are more dangerous. Ellen Wright,
colored woman who was also in the crowd,
received a shot in the hip. The assassin
fled after firing, but threw away his gun,
which was found by the police This is
the second attempt that has been made to
kill the colored minister. He thinks that
the would-be assassins are members of the
colored organizations of which he was for
merly member himself, but renounced all
obligations to their orders.

DIR. Talnlage's Sermon.

Special 10 Une OIODe.
BROOKLYN, Oct. 1S.-Prof. Henry Eyre
Brown opened the services in the Brooklyn
tabernacle this morning with the organ solo
''Sonata" in c minor, by Rheinberger. DR..
Talmage read and eXpounded the thirty first
chapter of the First Book of Samuel, show
ing that the old grudge between the Phil
istines and the Israelites was kept good,
and that people generally die as they live.
The subject of the sermon was: Shall We
Have Another Chance in the Next World?
The text was from Ecclesiastes xi: 3:
"If the tree fall toward the south of toward
the north, in the place where the tree falleth
there it shall be-
There is lowering hope in the minds of
vast multitude that there will be an op-
portunity in the next world to correct the
mistakes of this; that, if we do make COM
plete shipwreck of our earthly life, it will
be on shore up which we may walk to a
palace; that, as a defendant may lose his
case in the circuit court and carry it up to
the supreme court or court of chancery and
get reversal of Judgment in his behalf, all
the costs being thrown over on the other
party, so if we fail in the earthly trial we
may in the higher jurisdiction of eternity
have the judgment of the lower court set
aside, all the costs remitted and we be vic
torious defendants forever. My object in
this sermon is to show that common sense,
as well as my text, declares that such an ex-
pectation
is CHIMERICAL.
You say that the impenitent man, having
got into the next world and seeing the dis
aster, will turn as result of that disaster,
the pain being the cause of his reformation.
But you can find1O. eco instances in this world
of men who have done wrong and distress
overlook them suddenly. Did the distress
heal them? No: they went right On. That
man was fond of designations. ''You must
stop drinking" said the doctor, land quit
the fast life that you are leading, or it will
destroy YOU" The patient suffers paroxysm
after paroxysm, but, under skillful medical
treatment he begins to sit up, begins tc
walk about the room. begins to go to busi.
ness And lol he goes back to the same
grog-shops for his morning dram, and his
evening dram, and the drains between.
Flat down again. Same doctor. Same
physical anguish. Same medical warning

Movement to prevent strikes.

Special 10 the GlODe-
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1S.-A movement
is on foot here among textile and other
manufacturers looking to the adoption Of
measures to lessen the frequency of strikes,
which have become very common of late.
The plan is to make each employe sign a
contract in writing, setting forth the rate of
wages and number of hours to be worked,
and providing that one weeks notice must
be given of a desire to sever the engage
ment, under penalty of forfeiture of a
weeks wages. One weeks pay is held back
by the employer, to be handed over upon an
amicable cessation of the contract. AS may
be imagined. such an arrangement affords
the employer powerful lever for protection
of his interest against labor organization,
whose imperative orders have caused so
much trouble of late. The question recently
arose whether such contract would hold in
the face of special legislation which has
been secured in the interest of the laboring
classes. A test case which came up before
one of the city magistrates few days ago,
however, settled the point in favor of the
emplorers-

COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 1S.-Feeling is get
ting at fever heat on the legislature. Yes
terday the returns of the Fourth and Thir-
teenth wards of the city were thrown out
in official canvass, because the judges had
not properly filled in the tally sheets to tell
what ward or precinct it was, and had neg
lected to certify to the same. 1t is charged
openly on the streets tonight that this was
no mistake, but an intentional omission.
These are two strong Republican wards and
the organizations of the precincts were Re-
publican, This will give the Democrats
two of the three representatives from
this county and elect all of
the Democratic ticket except Allen o.
Myers, for representative, against whom
the majority is 1886 in a county that
usually gives 1000 Democratic majority
The Republicans say the Democrats have
the returning boards in all of the other
close counties, as well as in Hamilton. AS
official counts have been made in Lucas and
Hardin, the Republicans are practically
sure of a member from each of those coun-
ties, but there will be trouble over the
Hardin county case, where the Republican
members plurality is only twenty-five.
The Democrats have both members from
Stark county, and if they now get
two in this county and all
of the Hamilton county delegation,
there will be Republican majority of only
one on joint ballot The Democrats are
still claiming the senator from the Mont
gomery-Preble district. They have the re-
turning board there. and the Republican
candidate for senator claims forty-nine
plurality On a total vote of over thirty
thousand. Then the Democrats claim that
one Republican member elect from Musk
ingum and another from Cuyahoga are not
eligible, that the one is not citizen and
the other holds another office. 1t is be-
| lieved that certificates will be held back and
that the Democrats may get certificates of
election issued SO that they will have a
majority of one on joint ballot. The Re-
publican state committee has sent represent
atives to Cincinnati. If that county is
counted for the Democrats, then it is be-
| lieved that Sherman is beaten.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 19.-The Lincoln

entire Hamilton county vote except seven
precincts, which were given on Hoadly's

ator certainly, probably two, by the Repub-
licans and four representatives, possibly
five. The calculations extended over
twenty-four hours without intermission

main the temporary mistress of the White
house. The various rooms in the
executive mansion have been thor
oughly overhauled and fitted up during
Miss Cleveland's absence, and some sug-
gestlons that she made before departing

really nothing that demands her presence
here for some time to come. There will
be no festivities at the White house till after

days in the week for receiving her friends

Monument Over Confederate Graves.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Oct 1S.-A movement,
to mark the position of Confederate troops
on the Gettysburg battlefield, as those of
Union troops are marked, has been started,
| and it is thought the work will continue
until this most memorable field shall have
a permanent monument to show the most
important position occupied by every
regiment that participated in that remark
able battle. Then there will be no where
| in the world field which will be so inter-
esting to the historical critic or the student
of the art of war. Hon. Edward McPher-
| son of Gettysburg, who is member of the
memorial association, was spoken to on the
subject of having the Confederate positions
marked, and he said the association would
welcome any step in that direction. He said
they could easily have strip condemned for
a driveway along the Confederate line. The
organization which starts the movement is
the Second Maryland Confederate regi-
ment, which has received permission to
mark the line reached by them in their gal
liant charge on Culp's hill on the morning
of July 3, 1862. The surviving members
of that regiment are now engaged in
raising a fund for the purpose of
erecting a monument on the spot. It
is thought the example of the Second
Maryland will be generally followed. Con-
federates have hitherto taken most interest
in furnishing materials for history of this
battle This is only natural and judicious,
for, although the Army of Northern Vir-
| ginia failed to achieve success, valor was
never more conspicuous than at Gettysburg.
