A Chcerless Democratic Outlook,

New York, oct. l3.-lSpecial Telegram to
TIN BEE. The democrats are much fright
ened over the local situation, because it looks
much as if joel b. Erhard, who was nomi-
mated by the republicans, would be elected
mayor. The press of New York are united
IN saying he is a good man, though none of
the papers that support Cleveland nave de-
clared for him. What frightens the demo-
Gratis is the fear that the republican vote will
go solidly for Mr.. Erhardt, and that, with
the loss Hewitt and Grant are certain TO sus-
tain on account of dcfections to Coogan. the
labor candidate, the republican nominee viii
slip in. The situation is indeed "A most
chocrless one for the democrats, and the out
look seems even worse for Hewitt than
Grant.

MRS. CLEVELAND IN A BOX.
She Witnesses Lies Surprises du
Divorce" at New York.

New York, Oct. 13.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. In Mr.. Abbey's box at Palmer's
theatcr last night was a party that attracted
quite as much attention as the performance
itself. 1t consisted of Mrs. Cleveland, who
is on her way from Saranac Inn to Washing
ton, her mother, Mrs Folsom, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Willard =. Ward and Mr.. and Mrs.
Daniel Lord, ir., of this city. Mrs. Clcve-
land, accompanied by Mrs. Folsom and Mr..
and Mrs. Ward, arrived in New York only
yesterday morning and were driven to Mr..
Wards residence. Mrs. Cleveland did not
trip this morning. At Palmcr's theater last
night she seemed much interested in 'Les
Surprises du Divorce, and the great French
comedian, Coquclin. She wore a
mouse-colored velvet short skirt, in
laid in panels, with plaits Of white
passementerie. The bodice was high, with
II white surah vest. At her corsage and in
her hand were boquets of pink roses. She
entered the theatre in Il short seal wrap, but
wore no hat. She wore no jewels except
the little GOLD clasp pin which she wears al
most constantly.
Mrs. Folsom was dressed in black velvet,
with point lace. Mrs. Lord wore a black
lace over scarlet, red and black bonnet, and
Mrs. Ward an ccru lack and Persian brocade,
with silver passamenteric, diamonds. and
pink roses.
Mrs. Cleveland clossly followed the per-
fOrmance, which she evidently understood
and was seemingly ignorant of the fact that
dozens OF opera glasses were lcvclcd at her.
Mrs. Ward went to Miller's agency in the
Equitable building for n box last Tuesday,
only to be told that all were engaged. Upon
learning that Mrs. Cleveland wished to at
tend the performance, Mr.. Abbey graciously
rendered the use of his private box.

Roasted Alive.

New York. Oct. 13.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. A thrilling incident of the big
Williamsburg oil fire came to light yesterday.
Policeman Edwards, of the Bedford avenue
station, was among the first TO reach the
dock where the Oil was blazing and saw Q
barge lying on the north side. He ran to the
street and procured several stones, which he
threw at the cabin. The flames were even
then enveloping the barge. In a few mo.
ments a female figure emerged, followed
by an old, grey-haired man
and two young men. They were
Owen Flannery, owner and captain of tho
barge, and his wife and two sons.
Kun for your iifel ~ cried Edwards, and
they were barely rescued in time.
Captain Flannery said they were asleep
when they heard the stones rattle on the
cabin, and they owed their lives to Edwards.
The tag Green Point, which finally pulled
his barge out of danger, filed "a libel the
same day for 81 800 for salvage. Policeman
Edwards holds several medals for life Saving.

livered By the Hon. J. W. Breckinrtdge. The cere-
monies took place 81 miles from the city OF Mer-
ced, where the nood-gate was opened, and valley
Mfle-square converted into q sheet OF water named
Lake Yosemite. The canal was begun I'VE years
a-c by Charles Croker, OF railroad fame, and c.
II. Huffman, wealthy wheat grower. and their
sons. II cost 81. 100000 II Is 81 miles long, 100
feet wide at the top, 20 at the bottom and 10 feet
deep. 1t will frrigate 100000 acres OF the most
FERTILE land In California. II receives an In
exhaustible supply OF water from the
MERGED River 1iowing through the Yo-
semitic Valley, which is supplied by the
eternal SHOWS OF the Sierras. At point miles
below the falls, at MERGED, an immense dam raises
the stream 10 feet above its normal level The
great engineering features OF the work are two
tunnels one 400 feet long, driven through the
hill OF solid rock no supports being necessary; the
other. 1900 feet long, faced with timbers The
dam across the small valley near MERGED. con-
structed TO form reservoir is 600 feet long, 2S5
feet wide. and "a feet high The level OF the Teser-
vor Is 90 feet above the city-Merced. Water will
be conveyed there In large pipes It Is believed the
fall will be sufnc1ent TO run BY water power hour

MES will be settled along the line OF the canal,
which Is by ali odds the most important enterprise
OF similar character ever carried TO successful
termination in California II not In the United
