rived here by special train from Cape May

o'clock stopped for the day in Philadelphia.

ried in his hand letter addressed to Mr.
Secretary Blaine, Jersey City," said to
contain special request which he refused
to aivulge. The moment Mr.. Blaine
alighted from the train this letter was pre-
| sented. From the manner in which the
secretary greeted his smallest grandson
there is little doubt that the request will be
granted unless it has diplomatic signid-
cancy that threatens the welfare of the
| country.
| Mr. Blaine accompanied Colonel Coppin-
ger to Governors island where he will re.
main until this evening, when he will start
for New London to visit Mr.. and Mrs. En-
mons Blaine, who are shortly to leave fol-
the west. Prom New London Mr.. Blaine
will return to Bar Harbor. Mr.. and Mrs
Mckee spent the Gay shopping, and in the
evening took a Fall river boat for Boston
They will spend IL week at Manchester by
the-Sea and then return to Cape May Pom
and BABY Mckee.
Secretary Blaine went down town during
the day and called at the banking Office O
j. & w. Seligman in the Mills building
This firm does the banking for the state de
partment in its foreign business. At tn,
Blaine's visit had no significance, that h.
had only made short cali while passinl
through the city, and had only talked upol
social topics.

excitement at Chattanooga.

CHATTANOOGA, Aug. THE greatest eX-
element prevails here on account OF the re
suit of the election of county officers to
day. This county, which gives ordinarily
about one thousand Republican majority,
to-day elected the entire Democratic ticket
The change was brought about by new reg
istration law and the Australian system Of
ballot. Quite so per cent. of the negro vote
was lost by the Republicans in consequence
of these laws. This is the first time since
the war that the entire Democratic tickle
has been elected in this county.
