WASHINGTON, Oct. 30--A Post reporter
tonight put the following question to
Secretary Bayard:
"Have you ever at any time formally re-
auested or demanded of the British gov
erDment the recall Of Lord Sackvie"
The secretary replied: "No, no. Positively
no. All statements TO that effect are absolute

to the British government through our rep
resentative at the court Of st. James, all
the facts in the case. The President waited
what he considered to be sufficient

DEMOCRATS TO TIE CORE.
Congressman Bliss and Merriman Net
Sore.

Sore.
WASHINGTON, Oct. S0.-Among the visit
ing politicians in town to-day are Congress
men Bliss and Merriman of New York. Both
arc Just from home and fully advised Of the
situation there. Neither is candidate for
reelection. Both voted against the Mills
bill, and that circumstance initiated
against, if, indeed ii did not alone Of itself
prevent their denomination. The demo-
Gratis nominated in their stead are tariff
reformers, and, as members of the House.
will support the policy of the party on that
subject as outlined by Mr.. Cleveland and
interpreted by Mr.. Mills
FALSE HOPES.
The protectionists in New York have
been felicitating themselves with the
thought that the failure to nominate
Messrs. Bliss and Merriman must cost the
democracy of New York and Kings coun-
ties many votes. That is to say, they have
been calculating on the disgruntlement of
the friends of the two defeated gentlemen,
growing out of their retirement There is
the best reason, however-furnished, in
deed, by Messrs Bliss and Merriman them
selves-for the statement that this hope of
the republicans is utterly without founda-
ton.
WHAT MR.. BLISS SAYS.
Mr.. Bliss in conversation with the NEWS
correspondent to-day said: "No, shall not
be in the next House. My vote on the
Mills bill placed me in somewhat awk-
ward position and thought it best not TO
stand for denomination. | suppose could
have had a nomination of some kind had |
so desired, but | would take nothing but
the straight democratic support. The
gentleman who has been nominated in my
place IL a good man and will poll the full
democratic strength.
NO KNITTING.
"There will be no sort of divisions arising
from the tariff question. My personal
friends in the district now represent will
to a man support the straight ticket, and
myself hope to cast my ballot the same way.
don't think there is any doubt of Presi-
dent Cleveland's carrying New York by a
much larger vote than he received four
years ago.
MERRIMAN ALL RIGHT.
Mr.. Merriman was equally confident of
the success of t national democratic ticket.
With reference to bis own district he said:
"Mr. Quinn, who has been nominated to
succeed me, is County Democracy
man, and n close personal friend Of
mine. ] feel sure of his election. Ehe talk
about there being any disgruntlement
among my friends because | failed to re-
ceive the nomination is all bosh, so far as l
know there is not one, but will vote the
straight ticket. | shall vote for the Cleve-
land and Thurman electors and for MIR.
Quinn for congressman" Mr.. Merriman
thinks that in the mayoralty contest in New
York, Mr.. Hewitt will win.

sMark Twain.

! Mark Twain makes perhaps as
much as any writer Of to-day. He
has business faculty allied to remark
able literary ability of the kind the
market demands, and everything he
touches seems to turn into gold. He
has written some beautiful things, as
well as some remarkably funny ones,
and it is hard to realize that the same
pen which wrote "Innocents Abroad"
penned "The Prince and the Pauper." I"
OF all the American writers, l
should judge that Mark Twain was
the most read abroad You will find
his books in every country where the
English language is spoken, and many
of them have been translated.
Mark Twain's humor gave him his
start, and humor is one of the best
paying commodities in the literary
market.

NEwBURG, N. Y, July 20.-Rev
Edward P. Roe, the auther died last
night, of neuralgia of the heart, at his
home, Cornwall on-the- Hudson. No
American writer of fiction was better
known or had his works more sought
after than Edward 2. Roe. He Was
born at New Windsor, N. Y, March
z; 1888, and was educated at Williams
College at Auburn Theological School
and entered the Presby terian ministry
During the war he was chaplain Of
the Harris Light Calvary, and al the
close of hostilities became pastor OF
the Presbyterian church at Highland
Falls, Orange county. The success
Of his first novel, barriers Burned
Away" decided him in retiring from
the ministry to devote himself to liter
ary work. The idea Of writing that
book was suggested to him by
visit to the ruins of the great Chicago
fire. His income wes much larger
than most men, from the same source
in America. Among bis best-knowa
works we're Barriers Burned Away"
Opening of Chestnut Burr" and
"He Fell in Love with His Wife" The
early part of the day he spent N
writing, and after that his time wns
taken up with his garden. Midnight
work he never did. He had just fin
ished new book.
