NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-Hon. D. B. Eaton
was asked this morning what he thought of
the nomination of Gov. Hill by the New
York Democratic state convention. He
said:
''It was Tammany triumph that will prove
Democratic defeat in November The only
hope of the Democratic party is, instead, a
fast adherence to the administration. 1t was
an opportunity for the party that is out of
office to throw down the gauntlet of civil ser
vice reform and push the question Of the
campaign on that issue. If it is true that
Mr.. Hill is nominated as an out and out OPP
ponent of civil service reform, he will have
all the fight he wants in this camDagn.''

Specldl TO UnO CTlOOe.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Nr. John L.
Parrish, appointed consul to Chemnitz in
1888, disappeared, it is said from his post
without Strengthening up his accounts. Up
to the time OF his appointment Mr.. Parrish
lived on the West Side III Chicago. He was
a member of the Thirty-third assembly at
Springfield and helped to elect Mr.. Cullom
to the United States senate. When Presi-
dent Cleveland and Secretary Bayard
began to go over the foreign
officers the accounting officials of
the treasury department it is said notified
the state department that the accounts of
Parrish were in very bad shape. It was
very plainly intimated, it is claimed. that
this official was behind to the government.
Mr.. George c. Tanner, consul at Honduras,
was ordered to Chemnitz to succeed Mr..
Parrish. He arrived at his post about the
middle of April. The consulate was in
charge of Mr. Reichold, who was actin q
as vice consul without any warrant by
law. Neither Mr. Parrish nor his
vice consul, Clayton G. Mason, could be
found, and. few days subsequently Mr..
Parrish called at the consulate and at
tempted to explain the shortage in his ac-
count by fixing the responsibility upon Vice
Consul Mason, who, he claimed, had
abused his confidence. I he next day Par
rish disappeared again and has not been
heard from since Mr.. Parrish has been in
Chicago OF late but now his relatives declare
he makes his headquarters at New York,
representing certain manufacturers there.

New YORK, Sept. 25.-Sir Lionel West,

Roumelia is a Christian country, and does not

true the Berlin treaty has been violated, but
it amounts to nothing. England doubtless
expected that treaty would go to pieces after
a few years. think it is only a question of

In speaking OF the silver question, Mr..
West said:
The Bland silver bill should be repealed
The unlimited coinage of silver will create
fictitious values The other day in London
Silver as bullion went down to ~ pence, and
the American Bland buzzard silver dollar
dropped to II pence. This will always be the
case as long as the present system remains in
force. 1t seems impossible at present to
establish q system of bimetallism.

Provisions of Warmers BiI1.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-The New York
Herald to-day prints the text of Warmers
silver Dill. 1t is just about as described in
this correspondence months ago. 1t author
ICES the issue of silver certificates by the
treasury on the deposit of silver bullion,
the certificates to be in sums of $40 OF null
tiples thereof. Smaller silver certificates of
81, 50 and S5 denominations may be issued
on deposit of silver dollars. The value of
all silver so deposited is to be based on the
mean average selling price on the market
in New York. The silver certificates are to
be redeemed in legal money OF bullion, at
the option of the treasury, on demand, the
same method being used to get the value of
silver when redemption occurs. The GER
tifcates are to be legal tender for payment
of all debts and demands due the govern
ment. legal tender between banks may
be deposited, instead of bonds as a basis for
circulation. The Herald denounces the bill
bitterly, and says if Mr.. Warner was the
hired agent of the silver kings he could
scarcely invent a measure more subservent
to their interest or opposed to the public

cry, sailing master of the yacht Daunt-

wind which prevailed during the first half
of the race, and is confident that his yacht

Gossip About the Ticket.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-A Democrat
who is in Office, and who for that reason
does not want his name mentioned, ex-
pressed a very common Democratic opinion
when he said to the GLOBE correspondent
to-day that he thought the Republican
ticket in the state of New York was very
strong one and the Democratic ticket was a
very weak one. The nomination of Hill
and Flower, he said, is blow struck
directly at the president and his
civil service policy. With the ticket NOM
mated and platform adopted the Democrats
will lose the independent vote, but they
will bring out the whole Democratic vote,
especially the old-fashioned Democrats who
are for the spoils. Whichever way the
election goes, the Democrats who don't
agree with the president will claim that he
has been rebuked. If the Republicans
carry the election it will be argued
that the defeat of the presidents own party
in his own state is a decisive rebuke to him.
But if the Democrats carry the election it
will be an old-fashioned to-the-vctors-b
long-the-spoils victory, and the anti-civil
service reformers will declare it to be an
overwhelming reputation of the presi-
dents policy regarding the public service.

Abducted by Their Aunt.

Opecldl W Uil0
PAwTUCKET, r. l., Sept. 25.-After
twenty-five years Thomas Garrity, who has
won q fortune in the West, has found here
his two children, who were stolen from him
in 1860, and whom he never expected to see
again. His story is most romantic one.
Twenty-Five years ago he was a resident Of
PaWtucket. His wife died of consumption,
leaving two small children. In due time
Mr.. Garrity married again, and soon after,
with his new wife and two children, re-
moved to Boston. When out on the street
one day walking with the children. the
boy being four years old and the
girl fourteen months, he met
sister of his first wife. After a
few words of surprise at seeing him, the
woman asked permission to take the chill
dren to confectionery store to get them
some candy. He went after them in
short time, but they had disappeared. All
search for the abductress failed, although
the police traced the aunt and little ones to
Pawtucllet, and afterwards to Worcester.
There all clews were lost. The disconso-
late father reluctantly gave up the search
and went West Prosperity attended him
and last week he came to Boston rich man,
and with the aid of his wealth renewed his
search for his stolen children. A
skilled detective was employed, and as
result of his efforts, Mr. Garrity to-day
met at the Conant thread works here, a
tall, handsome brunette of 81 who is un-
questionably his daughter. She is highly
esteemed though poor, and is singer at
st. Mary's church. The meeting between
the girl and her father was most affecting.
She told him that her brother Thomas is
living in Natick, Mass. He is married, but
the daughter is single. Their aunt told
the children that their father and mother
were both dead Family troubles caused
abduction. A vain attempt has been made
to keep the story secret and to conceal Mr..
Garrity's identity.

After tIae syvindIers,

New YORK, Sept 25. - The Times Of
this morning says the numerous complaints
of evils arising from undervaluation and
appraiSement of imported merchandise in
cited Secretary Manning short time ago
to commission three United States special
agents to make an investigation. The
agents have been at work in this city for
several days and whisperings of extraordi-
nary disclosures are already heard among
the employees of the custom house and the
appraisers Office. The investigation Is be-
ng conducted secretly and its result, if
made public at all, must first be filtered
through the treasury department. Persons
who have an inkling of what has been dis
covered say that the present system of get
ting foreign goods into this country is hon.
eycombed with rottenness. 1t is now gen.
orally known that three large importing
houses of this city lately paid to the govern
ment more than $120.000 each on reap
praisements of goods that they had been
accused of undertaking. That such large
sums have been involved is indicative of the
great extent of the differentiation evil and
the fact that the sums of money demanded
under the reappraisements were actually
paid to the government is certainly Signii-
can't. Besides the three firms that have al
ready been mulcted, there are other cases
where payments of similar nature are
likely to be exacted. 1t is probable that
dozen or fifteen New 7 ork firms will be
pressed to pay to the United States treasury
moneys which the governments agents be-
lieve should have been originally paid in
honest duties. These sums will aggregate
about 81, 600, 600. A widely signed petition
is now in circulation among the New York
importers, asking congress TO substitute a
specific tariff for the existing advalorem
rate, which is subject to the Interpretation
of special agents.

The work of the Convention.


Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-The GLOBE cor
respondent came from Saratoga on the train
with Gen. Slocum and many of his personal
friends. They announced boldly that their
purpose in the convention was to defeat
Hill, and hence the sudden and singular op-
position last night against the movement to
go on with the nomination of governor and
lieutenant governor. They say they were
pledged for Slocum and they could have
beaten Hill without trouble this forenoon.
Said one of the Kings county delegates:
''HilPs no good, he hasn't got any Doodle.
Ali he's got in the world doesn't amount to
$4,000. Slocum has got plenty of money,
and so has Hewitt and Flower. What we
want is q man with a barrel, and besides, we
want man from the big cities. These coun-
try men have no business to have any of
these big offices''
AS a whole the convention was composed
Of honest, intelligent and patriotic men, but
there has been an obstructive minority COM
posed of the worst political elements from
Kings county and New York city. They
have no other use for politics than as
money-making business. They have
seriously interfered with the harmony of
the convention in this instance and, as i'll
most others, have
PROVED THEMSELVES NUISANCES
and discredit to the Democratic cause One
fact has been brought out in this conven-
ton, if not in official action at least in con-
versation, and that is that majority of the
Democrats present are hostile to Cleveland
on account Of his civil service administra-
ton. Pendleton is by name regarded as
saint, bnt is taking rank as bold innovator
whose civil service invention has robbed the
starving Democracy of bread. The platform
substantially admits all that was demanded
by eloquent Blair, president Of the Work
ingman's assembly, in his address before the
convention. The demands of the brewers
are met by generality on sumptuary laws,
which may mean much, little or nothing,
according as may be desired. Both parties
have two men of means, Davenport
and Flower, on their ticket In these
respects they are alike. They are
also alike in the fact that neither is salts
factory to its party. The result will de-
pend largely upon the willingness of the
two men with the barrel to distribute its
contents. There are refractory elements
in both parties. Hill is the better manager
and if backed literally by Flowers money
he viii have rather the best of the contest.
Neither ticket is in all respects what it
ought to be.
