A FRIsKY GOVERNOR.
Gossip About Indian Territory's New Exeeu-
tive-stricksn with Paralysis Thought
to be Dying.

Special to the Gazette.
GUTHRIE, I. T., Aug. 9.-Msj. E. 8. Dodd.
promine mt lawyer and leading Democrat Of this
city, was to-day stricken with paralysis while
out riding, and is yet in critical
condition. His physician entertains hope
for his recovery. When brought to his
office he was perfectly helpless, 1t was only by
q strong application Of galvanic battery that
signs OF life were restored. 1t is thought the
paralytic stroke was brought on by over &C
tivity and exposure to heat during the
political campaign just closed, and in which
he labored inces sanity in the interest OF his
party.
The Evening Democrat OF this city pub
lished an article in defense OF Governor Steele
and the lady whose name was connected with
his in a sensational story q week ago.
1t has been quite generally remarked that
the Republican papers here did attempt to re
fut the scandal after it had become notorious,
and the refutation, coming as it does at this
late hour and through Democratic
lative comment. There is q diversity of
opinion to the gnilt or innocence of the
parties concerned, and their prominence in
their resPee tive offices and social positions gives
the scandal more than ordinary significance.
No one had any sympathy for the governor,
but the lady and her husband. especially
the latter, to be pitied, IS they have hereto
fore enjoyed the best of standing in the upper
social circles in which they moved. 1t is said
that this is not the first time his excel
lency has been mixed in such affairs,
and he enjoyed the reputation Of leading fast
life in Washington while a member of congress
from Indiana. Be that as It may, he has shown
a tendency for fsstness in that line since he
came here. In this instance he exhibits
a stolid stubbornness and says he
don't give a d-n what they publish
on him, but he regrets the unpleasant position in
which the lady is placed. What the outcome
will be remains to be seen, as to-day has devel-
oped renew Ell interest on the part of the public.
A telegram from Edmond late this after
noon announces that Hon. II. w. Reynolds,
member-eiect to the legislature from the terri
tory at large, was thought to be dying. Mr.
Reynolds is editor of the Edmond Sun, and has
been prominent before the public of
this territory as leading Republican politf-
clan. In case of his death there will be
two vacancies to ill by special election before
the legislature convenes. In making the cam
paign Just closed he overdone himself and has
been Frustrated ever since his election, but until
to-day hopes for his recovery were entertained.
His death would be a great loss to journalism
and to the territory he represents SO ably,

No Freight Moving.

New YORK, Aug. 9.-Not single freight train
left the yards to-day and none arrived. The
force of men employed in the yards is not suf-
tcient to handle the usual freight traffic of the
road, but yesterday they had very little. To-
day Mr.. Webb will make strenuous efforts to
run freight trains Monday. both on the West
Shore aud New York Central. ''We will hold a
meeting here tomorrow. Sunday" Mr.. Webb
said to-day. "and decide what we shall do in
regard to freight trains, I think
we will have enough men by
Monday to get everything in running order. I
am we'll satisfied with the way in which the pas
senger trains were sent out to-day, and don't
think we will have any difficulty with freight
trains"
j. J, Holland spent the most Of the day in the
Grand Union hotel, in conference with repre-
sentative strikers. He told the reporters he
couldn't cay anything about the probabilities
for Monday beyond that the men would fight
hard. He couldn't tell, he said. whether the
Brotherhood OF Locomotive Engineers would
call out their aiembers or not.
There were many statements made yesterday
regarding the number OF men on strike. The
men themselves say there were three or four
thousand while the railroad officials maintained
there were about 80 or 400 out

CROP REPORT.
Statistics Reported from the Department at

statistics Reported from the Department at
Washington.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-There is a reduction in
the condition of all cereals as reported by stats
tician of the department of agriculture. The de
cline from the first OF July to the first OF August
is from 90. to 20. in corn, from GA to s3.5 in
spring wheat, from 81 s. to 70.7 in oats. A fall
of 20 points indicates the disaster which has be-
fallen the crop within thirty days.
The cause is the abnormally high temperature
of the Central maize district, with an INSULT
cheney of rainfall. Returns of the drought,
which covered broad area, and the
severity OF which it produced, are more
service record of temperature appears to indi-
cate. One factor in the blighting of vegetation
is evidently in the OF winds that have scorched
the lower basin of the Missouri valley and
Ohio valley. The change from the drouth
to daily saturation by repeated and heavy show
ers has been too sudden and extreme IN those
regions, where drouth has been relieved by sea-
sons OF moisture. The crop is late in the New
England states and will require long. warm
season to mature In the Middle states nigh
temperature has advanced the growth In the
northern district and in the more
southern there has been, some injury
from the drouth. The South Atlantic states
report local drouth with subsequent rains ana
com oaratively good, though somewhat reduced

in Mississippi have suffered mate
rally from the absence of seasonable
moisture In Louisiana the crop is in high
condition, though somewhat late in the over
flowed districts. In Texas the crop is now
matured and in good condition except
in that area that has suffered most
from drouth. Late planted corn

July. In the western and southwestern part OF
Kentucky the crop has been severely scorched,

WASHINGTON, Arg. 9.-Mr. Blackburn gave
notice that he would on Saturday, the 23d inst. I,

the senate at that time to consider them.
Mr. Hoar offered his resolution for cutting off
debate under certain circumstances and it was
referred to the committee on rules.
The tariff bill was taken up, the question be-
ing on Mr.. Buffers amendment to reduce the
duty on cotton ties to 30 per cent. ad valorem.

present in his seat He had then started
out of the house without his hat to attend
to business in the capitol. In passing
out OF the door the doorkeeper told him that he
could not pass. He replied that he would pass
out. The doorkeeper said that he could not do
so; that he had orders from the speaker
to that effect. He (Mr. Enloe) had said
that he would pass, and the doorkeeper there
upon caught him by the arm and attempted to
arrest him. He offered a resolution to bring
the doorkeeper to the bar OF the house for con-
tempt of the house, and for q breach Of the

The speaker, in ruling on the question, said

of the senate may be trusted, according to
usual custom, to select a senatorial conferee,
under guidance of the chairman of the com
rlittee on privileges and elections. Hoar,
who will see to it that they are answering
friends of the bill. In the house the speaker
will be guided by Chairman Long, who will take
like precaution. When all conferees get to-
ge;her it will be found that the Republicans
from the house will insist upon having bayonet
and domiciiary visit provisions restored 10 the
act. One or both OF the Republicans from the
senate will agree with them;
at all events it is believed
to be on the programme that conference report
shall turn the act over TO both houses in about
the shape in which it emerged from tho house OF
REPRESENTATIVES, some weeks ago. After that 1t
is hoped to make quick work of the final passage
of the act. In the house there will of course be
no trouble at all, and i'll the senate II is
expected that all parties will be
too worn out to do much fencing over the re-
port. 1t is likely to be the policy, therefore. OF
the Democratic senators to treat the bill now as
if 1t were still in offensive state as ever, and
to make its inexpediency the chief basis of de-
bate, instead of letting themselves better into
the Republican trap.

Programme of the Force Bill.

Grecial TO the Gazette.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 9.-The number of changes
actually made by Senator Hoar's committee in
the Federal election bill in preparing it toreport
to the senate, was greater than expected. During
the recent stages of the bills progress the
abolition of the ''bayonet clause" and
Of the provision for the house to house
canvass is believed to have been made by the
committee with an Interior purpose. 1t was
obvious that the Democ ats were going to at
tack the bill in tho senate on the ground that it
authorized the use OF an armed force to inhu-
ence civic elections and domiciliary visits
which would give rise to an inquistion hate
full 10 free people. The removal of these two
especially obnoxious features, it was thought,
would leave the opposition no resort but the
constitutional question as Il ground for contro-
versy. On this constitutional question tho
opinion. even among Democrats, is much dt-
vided. There is not believed to be enough
fighting material in that phase OF the subject 10
prolong the controversy in the senate, ana thus
Il is hoped by shearing the bill OF its main OBJ
Iectionable elements and leaving for its only
dubious feature one which VIII
not give much chance for debate, to get vote
this session without a great deal OF trouble.
The next stage in The programme will be to send
the amended act back to the house, where
the amendments are to be honoured in. Then
a conference will be called Tor. The president

that the Chickasaw situation is serious,
and that there is great danger OF an outbreak on
the 18th instant, day of election,
on account Of the disfranchisemen
of suuaw men. In a communication to the
president, the secretary to-day expresses the
opinion that there is no great probability OF an
outbreak 10 such an extent as 10 require inter
ference of troops We. as precaution he recon-
mends that the secretary Of war be directed
to have such troops as are at Fort GIBSON
in complete readiness to resp nd to an order
that may be necessary to suppress riot at elec-
ton. In reply to Agent Bennetts telegram the
secretary directs that no request for assistance
of troops be made unless riots OF n dangerous
character actually break out. The government,
ne says does not intend o display the force OF
troops until the last emergency.

OFF FOR BOSTON.
Trouble the Presidential Par Has in Shaking
OF Reporters in Jersey City.

New YORK. Aug. 9.-The presidential party
arrived this afternoon by the Pennsylvania rail-
road on their way to Boston to attend the
national Grand Army of the Republic encamp-
ment. In the party were President Harrison
and Secretaries Rusx and Noble, Private Secre-
tary Halford and Senator Evarts who accom-
panied them and left the party here.
They were met at the station In Jersey City by
Lieut.. Hughes of the Baltimore Guards, who
had been detailed by Admiral Gherarni to receive
them. He escorted them to the government
tug Catalpa. Lieut.. Hughes pushed
Secretary Halford off the gang plank
boarding the tug, mistakIng him
for q newspaper man. Two reporters,
however, got aboard Lieut.. Hughes got in and
yelled in all directions to every one to catch
them. They were courteously received by the
president and subsequently went ashore un-
ha' MD. The tug then took the party to the
Baltimore. The presidential flag was unfurled
and a salute of twepty-one guns fired. The
cruiser then steamed off for Boston.
