office in this city the fact that the Pavo-

no apprehension of danger to passengers

they would remain aboard the ship and
come to Boston with her.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
REVIEW.

New York, October 29.-Prices opened
very firm, foreign quotations coming better,
and there were considerable buying orders for
both home and European accounts. The
wretched weather seemed 10 act as damper
and checked speculation somewhat, with
the natural consequence of creating a sort Of
drifting tone and slightly lower values for the
time being. We may have quiet, and per
haps duh, market until after the election is
over, but everything points towards higher
prices, and, as far as we are able TO Judge,
descrvedly so. The tone during the evening &
was rather of an undecided character, some of
the specialties being advanced while the trunk
lines were neglected, though not weak. There
was some realizing late in the day in special
ties, the trunk lines, however, holding their
own, anu :he market closed feyerish. Money,

New YORK, October 29-During the

active and higher for nearly all the list
Richmond and West Point was very
active and higher The activity of the
stock was attributed to a statement to
the effect that six prominent and wealthy
gentlemen would soon be added to the

with others have formed a syndicate to
take the Terminal Companys new bonds

The charge of stigmatizing laboring men as
members of the lower classes has now been
staring the Hon. William FL. Clifford in the
face for nearly week. Yet he neither de-
MES, explains or apologies Perhaps he
sees nothing in the language to apologize for
1t is doubtless the way in which he has been
accustomed to speak of them all his life.
But what do laboring men think of the
man who travels around beseeching them
for their votes, representing himself to be
their devoted friend, and then goes on to
a platform and in a public speech
bitches them up with the idle and immoral,
who really constitute the lower classes of the
community? Do they think he is their
friend as he processes to be? Do they think
he will be true to their interests as he prom
ises he will? Or do they think his profess
sions of friendship are fraud and sham,
and that he will divest himself of all interest
in them when he has got their votes, as readi-
ly and carelessly as he would cast off worn
out coat or pair of boots? Are laboring men
so lacking in pride and intelligence that they
will vote to send to Congress man who has
publicly insulted them? We think not.
We think the Hon. William III. Clifford will
become convinced that laboring men are not
the fools he takes them to be. We think
they will show him that they are quite as
quick to resent insult as the class to which
he belongs and which he conceitedly assumes
to be a higher class

Of seventeen officers who have inst finished

does. 1t is the intention of those who have
secured the establishment of this school that
it shall be place for original research
rather than for tutoring. In his opening
address Admiral Luce called attention to the
fact that the art of naval warfare under
steam is yet in its infancy; and that the
feet most thoroughly drilled in naval tactics
will have the greatest advantage in war. 1t
is unfortunate that this coa,try has no
modern vessels in which to !. 10 practical
use the lessons which are taught its officers
and seamen.

ally complain of too much Indifference and

The good people of Fort Worth, Texas, are
greatly troubled. A drought in Commanch
and another neighboring county has caused
great exodus of negroes. These refugees are
coming into Fort Worth and neighboring
towns ;but the white people have determined
not to have them. People who rent houses
to the negroes are put under social boy
colt. The white people urge as reason for
this severe course that the negroes are idle
and vicious; but the fact that they are refu-
gees from counties where the drought has
taken away their means of subsistence does
not seem to be taken into account. There
seems to be more room for charity than for
severity towards these unfortunates.

A CHEAP TRICK.

The boomers of the Hon. William ii. Cliff
ford have apparently been holding council
of war to consider the best method Of avert
ing the direful results of his insult to the
laboring men of his district contained in his
speech at North Berwick last Thursday
night They did not dare to deny that he
used the Language attributed to him; they
did not dare to assert that the PRESS had
wrenched it from its proper connection and
thereby misrepresented Mr.. Clifford. They
knew that the evidence of the correctness of
the PREss's quotation both in spirit and in
letter was too conclusive to make it safe to
challenge it. So they concluded that the only
way was to offset it by quotation from some
Republican speaker or paper. AS they could
find none which would answer their purpose,
they deliberately set to work to manufac-
ture one. The Biddeford Times of Monday
evening contained this paragraph:
There was something rotten in the vicinity of
who mounted the stairs to the Knights Of Labor
meeting were aSSailed bysa most foul Odor which
continued to preyade the building throughout the
entire meeting. 1t was SAID to come from de-
fective gas pipe or sewer. The proper officers
should at once investigate.
Certainly nobody wonld ever construe that
paragraph into an insult to the Knights of
Labor. tits simply a complaint that a sewer
or gas pipe was leaking and creating bad
odor and call upon the authorities to fix it.
But these dishonest tricksters saw in it
material for their purpose. They dcliber-
ately cut off the two last sentences and
printed the remainder in capital letters with
this head line: "a Republican papers COM
ments on the Knights of Labor" Here is
the way in which it was served up by the
Argus, barring capitals:
A Observation-Disclosures COMMENTS ON KNIGHTS
OF LABOR.
There was something rotten in the vicinity of
the city hall last evening The nOStrilS of those
who mounted the stairs to the Knights of Labor
meeting were aSSailed by a most foul OdOr which
continued to pervade the building throughout the
entire meeting. -Biddeford Times Republican
If Mr.. Clifford's friends think they can
revive his waning fortunes by trick
like this they are very much mistaken.
Its effect is more likely to be to drive all hon.
est men in the community into opposition to
him out of sheer disgust at such campaign
methods
