part he would take in the campaign
Blaine said he could say nothing at pres.
ent. He did not think he would go out
side the state of Maine until after the
state election there, the second Monday in
September.
When asked about his health, he at
first said he was perfectly well, and then
added. laughingly: That's a question [
haven't answered in three years"
To a question as to the political aspect,
his reply was that he did not care to say
anything then, further than he had said
in his speech.
Upon landing Blaine was escorted to an
open carriage and was at once driven to
the Fifth Avenue hotel. Mrs. Blaine,
Miss Blaine, Miss Dodge, Walker Blaine,
Mr.. and Mrs. James G. Blaine, Jr., and
Others were rapidly driven to the hotel in
other carriages awaiting the party on the
pier. The events as they occurred on the
boat from the moment Blaine boarded it
were quickly recorded and sent to the
Associated Press by carrier pigeons.
A few minutes after IL o'clock, Blaine
arrived at the hotel and was greeted with
general cheers, He went Immediately to
his room but the cries Of speech
brought him to the head Of the stairs,
when he said: Just a word to thank you
for your tribute. 1t is the g~randest sight
and most cheerful sounds | have heard for
a year" He then went to the suite of
apartments which had been prepared for
him and where his family had already
gone.
Madison square was ablaze again to-
night, but Blaine of Maine was present,
as was not the case at last evenings par
ade. The throngs did not tonight gaze
in vain toward the great reviewing stand
near the Worth monument to see the
familiar figure of the returned statesman.
He was there, and though the occasion
tonight was the tender of Il serenade and
address to him by the workingmen, the
entire town seemed to be crowding to see
and hear. Even before sunset people
commenced to gather on the curbs and
among the trees of the park, and long
before the appointed time those who had
entered began taking their places on the
grand stand.
About 9 o'clock Blaine appeared rudy
and smiling. He leaned on the arm of
the Republican candidate for vice presi-
dent, Hon. Levi p. Morton, and was en-
veloped in a dark green coat He walked
down the main stairway and was
met by Police Captain O'Reilly and a
squad of patrolmen who Immediately
formed a hollow square and thus escorted
Mr.. Blaine to the grand stand. When
the crowd sighted the guest of the even
ing there rose on the air deep, hoarse
murmurs hat swelled into a cheer which
it seemed might have awakened Che echoes
from the Battery to Harlem. Handker-
chiefs and flowers futtered in the air and
cries of Blaine, Blaine rang out loud
and clear and the crowd seemed to have
gone wild in the excess of their enthusi-
asm.
When quiet was finally restored A. 4.
arose and introduced Mr., David
Holly ON behalf of the workingmen of
New York, to which Blame responded.

passed over Maxwell's face and his knees
trembled. The nooses we're adjusted and
at $50 the drop fell.
Landgraf never moved 4 muscle there
after. But not so with Maxwell. When
he fell his breast heaved convulsiveIy and
his limbs were drawn upward, willie the
spectators were shocked by a stream of
blood pouring down the right breast of
his coat, which was atterward found to
have been caused by a cut on the nose in
tlicted by the rope.
Landgrat was pronounced dead in
eleven and a half minutes. Maxwell
struggles continued fourteen minutes.
Landgraf was cut down at 9:l2, Max
well at 9:l5. The bodies were then re-
moved to the morgue office and photo
graphed, after which the post mortem ex-
animation commenced. 1t was stated by
physicians that the necks of
Landgraf and Maxwell were both
broken. Maxwell nose was brok en- and
it is presumed that he struck some part of
the gallows in the fall. Several of the
smaller bones in his neck were fractured.
After the postmortem the remains of
Maxwell were taken to the undertaking
establishment of Geo. W. Lynch, EN-
balmed and prepared for burial, and the
casket was quietly conveyed to Calvary
cemetery and placed in the vault for in
terment at a later day.
MAXwELL's DOCUMENT,
To-day Maxwell finished a document
which he called his diving statement. In
1t he reasserts his innocence of the wilful
killing of Charles Arthur Preller, and
then gives an epitome of the statement of
the case as heretofore published. begin
ming with his acquaintance formed in
Liverpool with Preller, detailing the
death of Preller, his own terror and fight,
pursuit, capture, trial and conviction and
closing with a bitter denunciation of those
whom he asserts have been instrumental
in dragging him out of the highways of
justice INTO the bypaths of mob law and
making his execution an infamy and dis
grace to the United States.

ROCHESTER'S FIRE.
Men Lsaplng to Their Death From Third
Story Window.

ROCHESTER. y. Y, November TO-
Last evenings fire was ths worst that ever
OCCURRED in this city. At least twelve
lives were !oss and twenty injured. The
pecuuiary loss will amount to $3.50, 600.
The alarm was sounded at 40, and the

that time little fire coa,c be seen from the
outside. The building was appEoachsble
only one side, and the frenen had only a
narrow alley to work in. The building
stood on the edge of the upper falls of the
Gsne;ee river. There falls are ninety-s X
feet high. When the fremen arrived the
windows on the on the street side of the
building were filled with men calling
for help. There were sixty-fve mea
inside. Firemen answered them, telling
them not to jump, that they
would soon be rescued. Ths men paid no
attention to the encouraging cries, and
soon the air was filled with falling human
bodies. At least twenty men jumped
from the third story. All of them were
more or less injured They were at once
taken to hospital. Four of them died Of
Injuries before they could be removed.
Their names were: John Gall, fireman OF
the works, Joseph DAuzsp, Joseph Web
Der, Henry SnyLer ana G. A. Oc5s.
There are twenty one missing men. 1t
is suppos ed that all the missing men are
dead and in the ruin'. 1t is reported at
10 a. m. that ten more bodies have teen
found in the ruins. The names of missing
and wounded we're given in last nights
dispatches.
