AN IN AMPLE OF POETIC sLlC r.
That Justice, unaided by human Law,
sometimes overtakes a man on this earth is
fully exemplifed in the case Of Dr. WA

AT WEST POINT.
The South American Delegates See
Some Good Riding.

WEST PoINr, n. Y. Oct 4-The South
American delegates complained OF being cold
as one by one they come out on the
piazza Of the hotel this morning and were in
stantly enveloped in the thick wet fog that
hung over West Point and the river The out
look for pleasant day was anything but favor
able. But while the delegates and party were
enjoying one of Cranston's breakfasts a breeze
sprung up and the fog disappeared, leaving
blue sky and sunshine in its place Breakfast
over, the members of the excursion party en-
joyed a social chat while burning their havanas
and watching the fog blow away At 9 o'clock
he party entered carriages and started on an
inspection of the military academy, the gym
nasium. the lecture hall, riding hail. dOrmi-
tories and other buildings being visited. The
party then driven to the parade
ground where a cavalry drill was witnessed.
Some OF the movements were heartily ap-
p!auded. Exhibition of leaping on and of a
running horse, cutting with a sabre, hanging
from the side of Il horse going at full speed,
bareback riding. &c, were given. The riding
exercises lasted over an hour. The delegation
rendered their thanks to the commandant and
officers of the academy for the attention shown
them. and said that what they had seen during
their visit was far beyond their expectations.
Carriages were re-entered and the party was
driven TO the pier where boats were in waiting
to convey the delegates on board the cruiser
YORKTOWN, which lay at anchor in the stream.
As soon as the party boarded the Yorktown the
anchor was weighed, and with parting salute
the vessel started on the trip to New York

DEPRESSING THE ARMENIANs.
Wholesale Searching OF Their Houses
for Treassnabls Correspondence.

LONDON, Oct. 4-Ths decree issued BY the
Turkish government prohibiting the exit Of
Armenians from Constantnople and the search
ing OF the houses Of Armsniass in the Turkish
service suspected Of carrying on secret corrs-
spondence with their countrymen abroad have
had disgusting influence upon krmenisns,
who have hitherto been disposed TO remain
passive In the hope that the prosecutions OF the
psrts would be Of short duration. When. how
ever, the house OF Dadian Pashs. under secre-
tAry OF state for foreign Affairs an Armenian
by birth, was visited and his trunks. books.
papers, clothing. &c, rigidlv ovsrhsulei. with
q view 70 the eiscoyery of compromising docu-
ments, the inquisitorisl policy of the govern
nent was stoutly resented. DAdisn Pasha pro-
tested against the outrageous treatment he had
received st the hands OF his colleague the
minister Of war. by whose order the search was
made, and threatsned TO resign his position
but better counsel and reflection prevailed and
he still remains at his post though shorn Of
much Of his influence by his submission.
THE MILITARY POLICE AUTnoRITIEs
assert tha, their orders directed them to spare
nobody in the course of their searches whose
effects might reasonably be suspected Of con-
tanning correspondence with outside Armen-
ians. but they appeared TO have gone much fur
ther than the original order contemplated, with
out incurring the displeasure Of their superi-
ors. Whether prior to the wholesale search Of
the houses OF Armenians IN Constantlnople and
the strict order of the government prohibiting
them from leaving the city, there WAS any con-
siderable correspondence between them and
the agitators in the places of their birth is not
definitely known, though IL is not unlikely.
But II is now pretty certain that correspond
ence IL INDUCED IN by secret means TO great
extent, and the wholesale dismissal of Armen-
ian tunctionaries and their suppression by
Mussulmans contemplated by the government
will increase the bitterness of the discontented
ones.
The Armenians at home are little IL any
better Oh than the Cretans and are really more
to be pltied. as they are a much better class Of
people than the turbulent islanders who are
being patted on the back by Greece. while the
Turkish officials punish them Tor their temer-
ity or, where proyocation is wanting, gratui-
tously practice the most inhuman cruelties
upon them

MR.. BLAINE AS CHAIRMAN.
The Objection Of the Chilian and Ar&en.
tine Delegates to his Presiding.

There is just this much truth in the story Of
the dissatisfaction among the foreign delegates
at the selection Of Mr.. Blaine president Of
the American international congress. The
delegates from Chill and the Argentine
Republic during the secret conference OF
the foreign delegates before the organization
of the congress raised objection to Mr.. Blaine's
selection. They urged that he was not a men,
Der of the congress; that he had duties of state
that would take up most of his time
and that the congress meanwhile would
be without head. Some Of the
other delegates were in doubt about the
matter, and half inclined to agree with the
reasoning Of these two delegations. The dis
cusson occupied the time OF their conference
during the first morning Of their meeting.
The next morning the question was resumed,
and that night they talked the matter over
until midnight. The preponderance of opinion
was
FAVORABLE TO Mr.. BLAINE,
and the Argentine and Chilian delegates were
the only ones who made a positive opposition.
1t was finally decided that Mr.. Blaine
should be chosen president Of the
congress, and that when he was alb
sent the acting president should be chosen
by putting the names of all the delegates on
slips of paper and drawing one from a hat.
partiaIity in making the choice. and give
every delegate, perhaps, chance to preside at
some time.
WITHDREW FROM THE CONFERENCE.
The Argentine and Chilian delegates were
still not satisfied to vote for Mr.. Blaine. They
would not follow the decision of the other
delegates, and they did not care to 60 into the
congress at the organization and vote against
him, SO they withdrew and absented them
selves from the congress when the president
was to be selected.
The special delegate from Chill was not pres
ent, but the Chllian government was repre-
sented by the Chilian minister at Washington.
1t is not thought that either the Argentine or
the Chilian delegates will withdraw from the
sessions of the congress; but. having avoided
voting for or against Mr.. Blaine, they will let
the matter drop.
THE PRESIDENTS DESIRE
By report, that may or may not be reliable,
it is learned that the reason for the selection
Of Mr.. Blaine was that the Presi-
dent did not desire the selection
of Mr.. Trescott because of his alleged assoca-
ton with the confederacy, and that if Mr.
Blaine had not been chosen Mr.. Trescott would
have been.
The special delegate from Chilli has just ar
rived by steamer and is to join the party at
Boston.
THEY WENT ON THE EXCURSION.
Two of the Argentine delegates went on the
excursion. and there is apparently no reason to
think that there is disposition on their part
to withdraw from the congress altogether.

MISSISSIPPpS BOULANGER.
How ex-senator Brice Gets the Title
The Republican Campaign.

Ex-senator B. f. Bruce has returned from
Mississippi, where he assisted in putting a re-
publican state ticket in the field, where it has
not been the custom to make any resistance to
the election of democratic governor.
Since the convention he has been dubbed
the Boulanger of Mississippi because of his
having been a delegate from so many counties.
He was elected delegate to the republican state
convention from Warren county, where is
situated Vicksburg, the largest CONNER
cial city; Kinds county, in which
is the capital city, Jackson; and
from Bolivia and Leake counties. Besides be-
ing four delegates he was several other officers
OF the convention. He was elected both per-
manent and temporary chairman. Upon his
earnest advocacy the full state ticket was nomi-
mated.
THE ONLY CoLORED MAN
on the ticket was W. II. Mollison for secretary
of state, who is a highly educated man and
possesses considerable wealth. Twenty wears
ago the democrats nominated colored
man for this Office. There is no
chance now for fight on color line. Gen
Chalmers was nominated for governor because
of his being an ex-brigadier of the confed-
eracy and a democrat until 1883. The repUbli-
cans are going to fight for the election of their
ticket.

Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
COLUMBUS, ONO, Oct. 4.-Gov. Foraker came

arranging for a prompt and thorough investi-
CATION Of Mr.. Geo. Topp in connection with
his letter to Contractor Campbell to increase
the price of gravel to 81 and give him (Topp)
drawback while he was q member Of the
board of affairs in Cincinnati.
Gov. Foraker expresses the greatest conf
dence in the thorough honesty of Mr. Topp
and believes that the affairs of the board will
prove this. 1t is now claimed that at the time
the letter was written Mr.. Topp was wholly
irresponsible and that a number of other let
teri are in existence that clearly establish this
fact.
The republican morning papers publish a
fac simile Of what purports to be e1-Congress-
man Campbell's subscription of $4,000 to the
stock OF the patent ballot box company.
Gov. Foraker will make two speeches today

THE CRUISER BALTIMORE.
Her Horse Power Not up to Require
ment-What Secretary Tracy Will Do.

The official report of the trial board on the
cruiser Baltimore relative to her recent
trial run was received at the Navy depart
ment this morning. The board stated
that the average horse power developed by the
engines was S977.SS, the requirement being
9,000 thus making deficiency OF 22. II powers,
which would incur a penalty of S22l2. The
screw made an average of ll7.9 revolutions a
minute, which, allowing 16 per cent slip, would
give her an average speed of 1876 knots an
hour.
TRIAL WITH INFESTED INDICATORS.
The report states that during the run two of
the indicators which had been thoroughly
tested before the trial broke and
it was necessary to substitute two
others which had not been tested. On the re-
cord of these indicators depended the record
of the development of horse power.
THE BUILDERS TO BE GIVEN ANOTHER CHANCE.
Secretary Tracy, after reading the report
this morning, decided to waive the question of
acceptance of the vessel until he could hear
whether or not they were willing to
let the last trial stand the final one. or pre-
ferred to have another trial run with the indi-
Gators thoroughly tested. His Difference in
the matter is based on the accident to the in
dicators. The report shows that the
ship made a wonderful speed, Notwithstanding
the failure to develop 5000 horse power, and
the Secretary is inclined to look upon that
as eminently satisfactory. The
allowance made for slip in calculating the
speed is a large one.

ceses were also presented. The discussion Of

mediately made by Rev. DIR. Storck
of Connecticut to the effect that the rule be
suspended so as to allow the house of bishops and
the house of deputies to meet a joint board

cal seminary for the education of colored cam

THE HATFIELD-M'COY FEUD
Broken Out Afresh at a Marriage Cere-

CHICAGO, Oct. A dispatch from Jamboree,
Pike county, KY, via Paw Paw, W. Va, says:
''The old Hatield-McCoy feud has broken out
again and at least three more lives have been
sacrificed in the bloody vendetta which has
now lasted over seven years. The shooting
occurred at a marriage at the farm house of
Peter Mccoy. His daughter was to become the
wife of John Hand, a relative Of the Hatfield
gang, and members Of both factions had sworn
to prevent the union. Hand had never been
connected with the disputes of the factions and
refused to recognize the leaders. Tuesday
night the bridal party assembled in McCoy's
house and just as young Hand and Miss Mccoy
stood before the minister q volley was poured
through Q window which killed both Of them
and fatally wounded the clergyman. Reports
say that the farmers and mountaineers OF the
locality are hunting for the murdersrs, but NO
trace Of them has been found.

the democratic party in Indiana are afraid that
the fight between Voorhees, and Gray will be
carried into the state campaign, and at a meet
ing of the executive committee to prepare for
the contest il was decided that il was of the
highest importance that the rival leaders
should be commanded to avoid anything ike a
conflict until after the members of the Iegisla-
ture are elected. How it can be prevented.
however, is not apparent as both VOORHEES,. and
Gray are already hard at work sndeavoring to
secure the nomination OF candidates OF their
