GORMAN EXPLAINS.

The Maryland Senator Gives His Reasons
for Peremptorily Declining the Chair
manshlp of the Democratic Nation ii
Committee.
WASHINGTON, July 19.-In an interview
last night, Senator German, of Maryland,
used the following language: at is true
/ did not want the National committee
craftsmanship, neither did 1 desire to
serve on the committee at all. But my
objections were personal not political.
My connection with the National commit
tee in 1884 kept me busy about three
years. My work began early in the can
vass. You might think it ended with Mr..
Cleveland's election, but it did not.
Every politician had met during the
me to assist them. When they did not
come themselves, they sent their friends.
I had, for this reason, almost as many
demands upon me, comparatively speak
ing, as the President, with this difference
MIR. Cleveland had the Offices to dispose
of and did not. Naturally enough my
private affairs suffered. This year I
shall not even be member of my State
committee. Rather against my wishes, I ac-
cepted place on the National committee,
and may say that my principal reason
for doing so was to prevent this very
charge which, see, has been made, viz:
that I feared defeat on account of the
tariff issue, and wished, therefore, to
avoid all responsibility for it. After
Congress adjourns about the middle of
September, shall try to take an active
part in the campaign, that is. as active a
part as my business affairs will allow"

HER LAST FILTRATION.

The Awful Fate Of a Pretty Woman Who
Deceived Her Husband and Went Boat
ing With Another Man.
NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, July 2O.-Mrs.
P. J. Tully, young and handsome mar.
ried woman, lost her life last evening by
going over the American falls. Mrs. Tully
was twenty-five years old, and came here
with her husband from Macon, Ca, a few
months ago. Unknown to her husband,
she accepted an invitation to go out SAIL
ing with William H. Barbour, whose
mother keeps the Grand Trunk ticket Office
in the International Hotel.
They started early, and had gone quite
q distance up the river when, in making
tack, Barbour let go the sail and the
boat turned over. Barbour is weak physi.
cally and Mrs Tully was badly frightened.
They drifted down the river toward the
cataract, slowly getting nearer the upper
rapids when their predicament was dis
covered by the crew of Sherman Jew ett's
yacht Titania, and a small boat was sent
to the disabled sail boat.
Barbour was rescued, but Mrs. Tu1 ~ let
go from the capsized yacht, to which she
had been clinging, and slipped down into
the water. Her hat was seen several
hundred feet down the rapids, and at 6:15
a m. her body, almost lifeless, passed
under the Goat Island bridge, going over
the American falls few seconds later.
Her husband left the bridge a few min
utes before this, having been there with
his partner watching for her.

THE NORTHWEST UPRISING,

Troops at Victoria Under Marching Orders
The Local Force in a Deplorable Con-

OTTAWA, Ont, July 19.-The government
yesterday notified the troops at Victoria
to prepare to proceed at a moments
notice to the scene of the uprising among
the British Columbia Indians. Colonel
Pryor, commanding the Victoria garrison
of artillery, and Colonel Holmes, COM
mandant of &c" battery, left Victoria for
Hazelton Wednesday in the gunboat

placed another steamer at the disposal of
the government for the transportation OF
additional troops if required. The Deputy
Adjutant- General reports the local force
in British Columbia in a deplorable
condition. Its total strength is $50 officers
and men, and these, with the exception Of
&C" Battery, are poorly equipped. After
landing sc" Battery, the Caroline will
return to Victoria to embark, if neces-
sary, the remainder of the troops.
Preparations are making to send troops
from the Eastern province, should the
local force fail to suppress the insurrec-
ton. It is rumored here that the Indians
who moved from Canada to Alaska two
years ago will join the hostile tribes.
