ANOTHER SENSATION.
Indiana Republicans Squirming
Under q New Exposure.

INDIANAPOLIS, October 31.-!The publ
cation by the Sentinel (Democratic) this
morning Of what purports to be the fac
simile of a typewriter letter sent out by
W. W. Dudley, Treasurer Of the National
Republican Committee, giving instruc-
tions regarding the election in Indiana,
is political sensation here. Copies of
the alleged letter were furnished CORE
spondents of Democratic newspapers
last night. There is great va
riety of opinion as to its genuineness.
Early in the day Colonel Dudley wired
the editor of the Indianapolis News, de-
claring the letter a forgery and threaten
ing to prosecute any paper publishing
the same. Editor Morse, of the Sentinel,
avows his conviction of the genuiness of
the authorship and signature of the let-
ter. Chairman Huston, of the Republi-
can Committee, is out in card, stating
that Colonel Dudley has nothing to do
with the management of the Indiana
campaign. That he (Huston) has not
been advising or corresponding with
Dudley and knew nothing Of any inten-
tions on the latter's part to address
any letter to anybody in Indiana THAT in 80
far as the letter suggested the employ
ment Of improper or illegal methods in
connection with the coming election, he
utterly repudiated it on behalf of him
self and the State Central Committee.
The suggestion is entirely contrary to the
plans and purposes of his Committee.
The letter bids fair to become a sensa-
ton OF the Indiana campaign. The
printed letter-heads of the National
Republican Committee, such as found at
the headquarters of the State Committee,
DO not correspond in shape or style with
the fac. simile letter-head printed in the
Sentinel.

the whole business costing US an
aggregate Of nearly s10,000,0o0 1t was
certainly something to secure treaty
that would obviate future sacrifices such
as these which Republican administers
ton had no compunction about saddling
upon the country. But a degenerate
majority Of the Senate. with party
advantage dominating the honor
and dignity of the Republic in their
view. rejected the treaty, not be-
cause it was not for the benefit Of
American fisherman, but because it
would have given credit to a Democratic
Administration. When these conspira-
tors-for that is what they were-rejected
the treaty, Mr.. Cleveland met their dem
agogism, about his playing into the hands
of the British, by measure, that passed
the House in jiffy, placing positive and
practical retaliatory powers in his hands.
But the bill was pigeon.holed
in the Senate by those very Senators
who were 50 anxious to twist the lion g
tail. When they had the opportunity to
take the lion by the throat, or at least to
authorize Cleveland to do 50, their cour-
age, like that Of Bob Acres, oozed out at
their fingers ends. They gave it to us in
the Cambyses' vein until they were
placed face to face with real danger
then, like the ancient Pistol, they took
the leek that Cleveland made them eat
This same un-American majority liz
the Senate met with a similar alternative
in return for their shyster ward-politics
conduct with reference to the Chinese
treaty. They swallowed another Cleve
land leek in that affair. -
Baffled all round, the Republicans
concocted the infamous Murchison letter
to carry cut their pet scheme to make il
appear that Cleveland was trembling ir
his boots for fear OF the British, and hat
only played game of bluff in his mes
sages. Ofcourse, if they could make tht
people believe this, they would
fortify their falsehoods against tht
Democratic party on the tariff issue
But their Murchison perfdy has me
with the same fate as their course upor
the Fisheries treaty. 1t has come llk'
lchickens, home to roost. Mr.. Cleveland
has met the Sackville impertinence in
way to make every true American fee
proud of his Government. He has sen
the British Minister home in disgrace
and vindicated the honor of the nation
insulted by his impudent interference il
American politics.
The very Republicans who are ida,
blinded by partisan passion, will awak'
to appreciation of the patriotic ant
exalted act of the Administration whel
they have come out Of the delirium o
party fanaticism which now render
them unreasoning beings.

t4+ cratic Procession.

New York, October 31.-A Republi-
can procession, composed chiefly of col
ored men, met Democratic procession
at Twenty-sixth street and Sixth avenue
to-day and riotous struggle ensued.
Store windows were smashed and seven
persons injured. The Colored Republi.
cans far outnumbered the members of
the Jeffersonian Association, of the
Ninth Assembly District, with whom
they fought. Numbers Of colored inhab;-
tants of the neighborhood fell to and as
sisted the colored paraders. Missiles few
in all directions and hand to hand fights
were everywhere. The stores were all
closed between. Twenty-ninth and Thir-
tieth streets and the shopkeepers with
drawn revolvers protected their property
as best they could. A large force Of DO
lice was summoned quickly dispersed the
rioters and arrested several. -Four men
were seriously wounded, two of them be-
ing stabbed. Several shots were fred
during the fray, but as far as learned
did not take effect.

The robbers broke open Wells, Fargo &

the engineer and fireman off the engine,
and, cutting it loose from the train,

spent five or six hours yesterday going
around with gentleman who was
authorized to bet a large amount of
money on the general result. We first
visited the Chronicle Office where we had
been told there was considerable. sum
to be wagered on Harrison. We saw the
cashier of the Chronicle and Mr.. M. H.
De Young, himself, and were assured
there was no money there. In many
other efforts made to place this money
no hackers of Harrison could be found.
One broker who some weeks ago had
been betting 500 to $50 refused to make
even bets now. Mr.. w. H. Mills bet of
IS, 600 in Sacramento was covered in
stantly. Nose Gunst has SAC, 600 of
Eastern money to wager on the general
result, and thus far has succeeded in
placing $11 900 of it.
THE TIDE TURNED.
In California the tide has turned
heavily in favor of the Democrats during
the past month, and there is now begin
ming to be good deal of even betting
that the State will go for Cleveland.
Mr.. Tarpey figures out 5000 Democratic
majority on conservative estimates, al
lowing 1000 Republican majority in Los
Angeles on the National ticket and cor
responding figures for San Diego and
San Bernardino counties. The city and
county of San Francisco looks good for
from 1000 to 5000 majority. The first
is the generally conceded figure, even
by Republicans.

night will be the grandest thing of the
kind ever known in the history of San
Francisco. The Murchison- West busi-

A LESSON FROM NATURE.
How to Cure o Cold.

How to UuTe C0l1.
A SUBJECT IN WHICH WE ARE ALL MORE
OR LESS INTERESTED.
To cure cold quickly it must be
properly treated as soon rs the first
symptoms appear. DO you know the
first symptoms? if not, you will un-
doubtodly remember having them at
numerous times and TINT you did not
consider them at all seriol ; or even
worthy of your attention. They arc
a dry loud cough thin white coating
on the tongue and II profuse watering
discharge from the nose. Any ono or
more of these symptoms is natures way
of telling people they have taken cold,
and gives them ample tine to cure it
within two days if they desire to. The
free use of Chamberlain Cough Rem
edy will restore the system to a healthy
condition within that time. If however
the cold is neglected and allowed to
become settled in the system several
days or even week nay be required
to effect cure, as nature must then
take its course aud all that can be done
is to aid nature in freeing the system OF
the cold, which is best accomplished by
using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
1t will open the secretions and loosen
and relieve the cold in less time than
any other medicine or treatment; it
seems to undermine cold and to COM
pletely eradicate it from the system, as
evidence of its superior excellance, VIC

people well known and respected at
