 CHICAGO, May 31,-John c. New, who is here, is inclined to smile at the suggestion that anybody but Harrison has the re- motest chance of being the Republican nominee. "I can see no reason why the party should set aside winner in order to favor men who either have not proved themselves winners or have demonstrated that they cannot win. I think MT. Harri- son will be nominated for president on the first ballot and MT. Morton for vice presi- dent on the first ballot for that office. There is no evidence to show that Mir. Blaine is a candidate, and there is positive proof that he does not desire the nomina- tion. His letter to MT. Clarkson was volun- tary. Nobody asked him to write. It covered the whole ground. In the face of 1t cannot see how he can be candidate.
 'I think that MT. Blaine will not be a candidate, and further, that he will not allow this impression to continue. I know that without President Harrison reciprocity would never have been of any practical value. More than that the documents in the handwriting of the president himself will show exactly who guided all the nego- tions regarding the Behring sea and Chilian affairs. But you must not understand that this is in any way an attack upon any one. They do not have to for it is beyond the shadow of doubt that he will be nomi- mated on the first ballot. He can count the delegates now who will bring this about The men who oppose him can be counted ADsA tho augsss of enc hand .

Burns Whips Cal McCarthy.

CoNEY ISLAND, L. l., May S1.-The fight between Cal Mccarthy, of Jersey City, and Bobby Burns of Providence, at the Coney Island Athletic club, was won by the Rhode Island boy. Burns hit Mccarthy power ful righthand jolt in the jaw in the second round and knocked him down. The effect of the blow was so great that the Jerseyman never recovered from it during the battle. Burns also had Mccarthy down three times more in that round. In the fifth and sixth Mccarthy did some clever landing on Burns jaw. Once it looked as though Mc- Carthy was playing Burns out, but in the eighth round Bobby smashed Mccarthy on the jaw with his right, and Mccarthy went down in a heap. When his seconds called on him to get up and fight, Mccarthy held up one hand, shook his head and said he couldn't. So he lay there on the floor and let the ten seconds go by.

Exterminating Native Australians.

There has existed for some years past in Australia an organized body of armed men, known as the 'black police" It is composed of members of the aborigi- nal races, officered by white men; osten- sibly their duty is to protect the settlers or squatters from the depredations of the native tribes, but in reality they are ex- terminating the defenseless natives in the most thorough and bloodthirsty manner So far the political influence of the squatters has prevented anything being done by the Australian Govern ment to put an end to this disgraceful state of things.

no permits are given sportsmen to hunt on
Jefferson's Island, game is plentiful, and
Mr.. Cleveland is getting as much of it as
he can conveniently attend to. In CONVEX

hunt prairie chicken.
Captain Cade, who was among the visi-

of Mr. Cleveland's hunt, being thorough
sportsman and splendid shot. Mr..
Cleveland is delighted with the country,
and was somewhat pleased to find that his
popularity in this section was so great. He
hunts almost the entire day. and reads the
newspapers occasionally. He, also, begs to
be excused from discussing political ques
tions. He says his one object in coming
South was to enjoy himself, and he does not
intend to let anything interfere with bis do
ing so.

TROUBLE OVER THE ROACH ESTATE.
A Son OF the Late shipbuilder Wants an
Understanding.


Understanding.
NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-[Specidl Charles
E. Roach, son of William Henry Roach, a
deceased son of the late John Roach, the
shipbuilder, applied to-day through his
counsel, James A. Dennison, to Chief
Justice DAILY, of the Court of Common
Pleas, to be made a party to the
final accounting of the estate of John
Roach by his assignees, George w. Quin-
laid and: George E. Weed. Colonel Denni-
son said that John Roach, shortly before his
death, had executed lease of his works to
the Morgan Iron Works. The rental was
paid to the estate after his death. Gel
onel Dennison maintains that Mr.. Roach
was incompetent to make this lease,
as he had previously made an assignment.
He said, however, that he did not intend to
attack the lease in the will. He wanted
larger rent In the past five years the
rental had been from 100000 to S15O, 900 a
year, but in the next five years it should be
100000.
Almon Goodwin opposed, and said that
Colonel Dennison was on q fishing excur-
sion. The assignees had executed their
trust well, and the matter was about to be
cleared up by the asslgnees paying over to
John Roach's estate $1,000, 900. He did
not want grandson in the. accounting, or
any other complications. Decision was re-
served.
