The Democrats needn't worry. The
failure of the Blaine reception showed
that the Republicans will be wrong il
they build very largely upon him. If Mr.
Blaine continues TO make the same kind
of speeches as the one he favored the Pat
Ford crowd with on Friday night the
Democrats should rejoice. The speech
was clearly an insult To- the intelligence
Of the American people Mr.. Blaine
stated, for instance, that ever since Cleve-

enced confusion and disaster About The
time he was saying this the columns of
the Tribune contained the refutatiOn. Its
commercial article showed that the cOun.
Try was more prosperous than in August,
1897, and that mercantile interests were
on more solid basis. Mr.. Blaine also
resorted TO piece of dcmagogism in
stating that the English wanted The Mills
bill TO become law The fact is con-
lrary TO this if the English newspapers
state the truth. These papers contained
editorials every day, in which they fear
that the commercial supremacy of Eng
land would he in danger if her raw mate
rial was admitted free into foreign
countries was eAhaused. Mr. Blaine's
arrival did not buoy up Republican spir-

BISHOP HARRIS
OF Michigan at the Point of Death.

LONDON, August 12.-The Right Rev
Bishop Harris of Michigan, is at the
point Of death at the Langham Hotel
Yesterday it was believed that his death
was only question of few hours. But
a consultation of three physicians last
night gave hopes that he would survive
at least long enough to see Mrs. Harris,
who sailed from New York on sum-
mons bv cable. The Bishops daughter is
with Lin here. Bishop Harris came TO
England TO attend the Lambeth Confer
ence, was worked hard on several COM
mittees, and was preparing to go abroad
for tour in the Holy Land. But before
leaving England he accepted an invita-
tion 10 preach in Winchester Cathedral
In the midst Of the sermon he suddenly
ceas d speaking, clasped his hands 10 his
head and sank insensihle in the pulpit.
The congregation was dismissed and the
Bishop removed to the deanery, where
the physicians who were called said he
was suffering from an ap0plectic stroke
He was brought TO London in the hope
that he would be well enough to sail for
home on The Saale on last Thursday
But when the time came for his de
parture the Bishop was in a cOmatose
condition and believed to he dying.
There has been a slight improvement
since then, but his recovery is scarcely
probable.
