A PROFOUND SENSATION

A PROFOUND SENSATION
in this country. It has been said BY
such papers as the New York Tames
and Evening Post that Secretary Sher-
man did the same thing. Well. have
been denying that for good while and
this morning l received letter from
Secretary Sherman himself and he ex-
plains exactly the difference. When
Secretary Sherman made that marvel
Gus loan of per cent. in 1879, they
were sold through the banks and paid
for over the banks counters. The
money was merely in transit between
the man who paid for the tours
and the man who got his pay
for the surrendered fives and skies. But
these men have taken money that was
in the Treasury, and against every pro-
vision of the law, have dipped their
hands into it up to their elbows. and
helped their friends. The most corrupt
thing you can conceive OF is to take
money out of the government Treasury
and give it to the banks who can use it
and use their influence for the party in
power.
saw to my regret in paper an &C
cusation made that the extrsdition
treaty had been injuriously amended
by the Republican committee, and re-
ported to the Senate by Republican.
STATE POSITIVELY,
and state of my own knowledge that
there is not one particle of foundation
for that allegation, and that, like the
fishery treaty, which surrendered our
rights in the fisheries, this extradition
treaty is supported in the Senate, by.
Democratic Senators and by them
alone. (Applause.)
Referring the the Republican parade
which he witnessed to day, Mr..
Blaine said: It was the most mighty
political procession that ever
trod the streets of New York, Zap
plause), and compared with those
which the President of the United
States came here last week to- review,
why, that was picket guard to the Re
publican army; and gentlemen that
procession is prophetic. 1t means that
The people of New York are aroused
not on the old party lines, not in the
old fashioned tight between the Demo
Gratis and Republicans but fight be-
tween protectionists and snti-protec-
tionists; fight between protection and
free trade. prolonged cheers.

ANOTHER MEETING.
After this meeting, Blaine was iriv y
to mass meeting in the Grand Afmy
hall in the Eastern District in Broef.-
Ign, where he made short speech, say
ing in part: "We must stand together
in this election. This election carries
the flag of the Union instead OF
dirty bandsna, for without any dis.
respect to the candidate for VicSZ
President, l think one of n The
most extraordinary campaign badges is
a pocket handkerchief. That is what
snuf-taker uses in his extremity. Yss,
L prefer the great banner of the United
States which was borne up Great
Avenue of New York by $4,000 people,
and under that flag aud under the flag
of protection, We shall win victory on
Tuesday next. -.
After this speech, Mr.. Blaine was
conducted to the skating rink in the
outskirts of the city. His fatigue was
apparent and he spoke but few mo-
ments.
