lyn bridge Monday. spent Sunday at 104
Clinton avenue, Brooklyn, where Mrs.
Anna i. bennington, widow of John DON

daughters. Counsellor was frequent Wis
itor. Miss Ursula bennington. the eldest
daughter, was sent for by DIR. knight, who
was with Counsellor when he died, and
went at once TO the bridge police station.
She said she was Counsellor's adopted

the best of fathers 10 her, and had shown
himself true friend of the family in

adopted daughter. and threatens war if the

The Situation at IL Paso.
Ell PAso TEX, July 22d.-The city of
Paso del Norte, opposite El Paso, is filed
with Chihuahua State troops to-day. What
the object of their coming is, is not defin-
itely known, although great many people
think that it has some connection with the
now celebrated Cutting case. on account of
which the Paso del Norte people expected
an attack from the El Paso people, which,
of course, did not take place. The Mexican
troops, however, were under arms all night
during a heavy rain, which must have
completely soaked and demoralized them.
AT the military post OF Fort Bliss, which
lies in the suburbs Of El Paso, nothing is
known of any International complication
The Cutting case is in statu quo, and he is
still in prison, although II is said that the
authorities offered to release him on bail,
which he is said to have refused to give.
Ohio Republicans.
COLUMBUS (Ohio), July 22d.-A meeting
of the Republican State Executive Com
mittee was held last night to make pre-
iminary arrangements for the holding of 4
State Convention in this city August 18th.
The general expression was to the effect
that Republicans had little to fear from the
Democratic party or its ally, the Prohibi
ton organization, this year, but it was de-
cided that the campaign should be pushed
with the greatest energy, with the view of
increasing the majority given to Foraker last
October. The candidates to be elected are
Secretary of State, Supreme Court Judge
Member of the Board of Public Works and
Clerk of the Supreme Court.
The Hop Crop in New York.
UTICA N. y, July 22d.-The Herald
prints to-day reports from ten hop-grOwing
counties of the State, touching the present
condition of the crop. From every quarter
comes some story OF devastation, and some
predictions of failure of the crop. None
of the writers estimate the yield at more
than half Of the usual average, while most
of them put it at one-eighth to one-filtb.
All through the eharvest-producing region
it is evident the vine has gone to pieces in
not so badly off, owing to later growth of
the vine. Taking the whole territory into
consideration, its estimated crop will not
exceed one-third of the usual yield.
Banks for Honduras.
New ORLEANS, July 22d.-Major 7. F.
Hilder of st. Louis has paid two visits 10
Honduras within the last six months. On
the first President Borgran granted him a
concession for the National Banks of Hill
ders. On the second visit the concession
was made more favorable. He endeavored
to interest New Orleans capitalists in the
project, but finally determined that il was
too heavy for this market Colonel Pat
Doran assisted in obtaining the concession
and acted as agent in the North, Chicago
and New York. Capitalists have taken the
stock and capital of $500,00 is subscribed.
The plan is to run three or more banks in
Spanish Honduras and one in the United
States.
Canadian VS.. American Fishermen.
PORTLAND (MeJ, July 22d.-Mr. McKen-
ny, q leading merchant, says concerning
Mr.. Bayard's recent statements: " Mr..
Bayard has been grossly misinformed. Less
than one-fifth of the crews Of American
fishing vessels are Canadians, and per
cent. of the supplies used by them are pur-
chased outside of the United States and, as
large proportion of the men on American
fishing vessels go on shares instead of
wages, it is not quite plain how Canadian
fishermen can be procured cheaper than
American
