from Annapolis to this city-Tho Number
of Recruits Wanted.
Special Dtpdteh TO the ERieligneT.
+ WASHINGTON, D. G., Oct. l5.-The
War Department has issued an order
transferring the army recruiting station
under Capt. Allen Smith, Fourth Caval-
ry, from Annapolis to Wheeling. Cap
tain Smith is now reported by the De-
partment as in Wheeling looking for
suitable quarters for a rendezvous. The
recruiting party will consist Of one lance
sergent and two or more privates. About
eighteen hundred men are wanted to
fill vacancies in the service. Great diff
Guilty is experienced in getting desirable
recruits, mainly because the private SOL
dicr in the regular army is usually made
a dog OF by officers. This fact accounts
for the great preponderance OF low
type OF foreign element now in the
army, self-respecting Americans almost
universally preferring the hard lot out
side to the indignities OF the service.
The recruiting department hopes to get
some good men who will not desert in
the Wheeling section. Posters calling
for recruits will be sent to postoihces
within fifty or hundred miles Of Wheel
ing. Infantry recruits will be sent to
Columbus and Cavalry to Jefferson Bar
racks near st. Louis for three months
drilling before assignment TO regiments.

THEY ADMIT DEFEAT
Democratic Managers ut Washington Very
Blue Over the Prospect.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Oct. l5.2The
Democratic managers are practically
ready to give up the ghost. Their party,
they admit, is in comatose condition
and will linger along until the 9th of
November, when they expect to surrer-
der to the inevitable. The best evil
dences Of their condition are the quar-
rels and differences among the leaderS.
Chairman Barnum has been here for
two days. In conversation with friends
he has been very plain.spoken about
Committeeman William l.. Scott, He
evidently has the most supreme con-
tempt for the sagacity or the sense OF
"the Erie statesman" He charges Scott
with having been the Cause OF getting
the Democrats into their present hole.
1t appears that Scott utilized what he
alleged himself to have put into the last
campaign as fulcrum upon which to
rest his manipulations TO make himself
solid with the President. In connection
with his operations under the patronage @
OF the President, Barnum says he hes
alienated more sound, better and more
useful Democrats, and consequently hiss
done more damage than can be repaired
during this campaign.
CHEAPER TO HAVE REFUSED.
Barnum told gentleman that the
Democratic party, il it had forsecn the
trouple ecot1 Woulu give thom, US he
himself had foreseen, it would have
been cheaper TO have given him back
his money with interest and let him go.

A Man Gels Twenty Years for Kicking Ills
Mother to Death.
New York, October 14.-Nlichael Flah-
crty, who was convicted OF murder in
the second degree for kicking his aged
mother to death in the Hudson County
Court of Over and Tcrminer on Friday,
was re.arraigned before Justice Knapp
yesterday and sentenced to 20 years in
the State prison, and also fined the
amount OF the cost OF the case. Lawyer
Black, his counsel, made an appeal for
mercy. The Justice, in pronouncing the
sentence, said: "The testimony OF the
witnesses showed that Flaherty is u
brute, and the Court would have been
pleased il the jury had convicted him OF
murder in the first degree. He deserves
no mercy, aud will get none in this
court"
As Flaherty was being led from the
room he turned to the Justice and asked
appealingly: Cant l say word foI
myself" The Justice bowed his lead
aflirmatively, and Flaherty said: "Youl
Honor, am not guilty OF the charge"
He broke down then and could say no
more. The jury seems 10 have attached
weight to the point made by the pris'
oner's lawyer in summing up that
Flaherty could have had no motive fol

ADlshonornble Race.

BosroN, Oct. 15,-It trauspired that
the recent Rowe-Temple bicycle races
for the worlds championship were not
honorably contested. At Morgan's sug.
gestion, Manager Alley, who has been
handling Rowe, made an agreement with
Morgan that Temple would win a race,
Rowe win one and the third be dead
head. Morgan, it appears, planned to
throw down Rowe and Tell into the very
trap which he had set, Alley had his
mind made up as TO what trick was to be
played upon him and Rowe and met the
head schemer with his own tools. He
intended from the start, so he claims,
that Rowe should so in to win the first
two races, and win he did, though 1t was
contrary to all arrangements. Alley
Rowe and Woodside have made ali
dayits TO the above effect,

about Southern outrages, the Judge said
that he would be charged with waving

he added, "as their shot guns and ruff

Mr.. Schwartz, who represented thous.

talked as man who.had no hereditary
preferences for either party, but had
come to America a stranger, studied lis

great expanse of forehead and bright

Robert P. Porter was another OF the

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Oct. 15.-The
hopefulness of the Republicans on the
result in November increases as the
election draws near. There is scarcely a
doubt but that the party Of protection
will carry this State by at least G,OOO ma
jority. This is conservative estimate.
There are some who profess to sec ut
least 10000 in sight, but this is through
strongly partisan and ultra hopeful
glasses. Ten thousand is the usual esti-
mate OF the average Republican.
The world outside takes it for granted
that the sole issue hero is tue tariff. 1t
is mistake. There are State issues OF
fully us great magnitude, and which are
playing no secondary part i'll this great
political drama.
