BLOOMINGTON. ILL.,, Nov. 14.-Tbe pent-
up enthusiasm of the local Democrats
was turned loose tonight in ratification
of the election of Cleveland and Steven
son, especially the latter, as he is resi-
dent of this city. Nightfall was the sig-
nal for the lighting of bonfres in differ
ent parts of the city and the firing of
cannons and anvils. The Democrats
began footing horns and thousands of
people congregated about the business
portion of the city. About o'clock
they all formed in line and with bands
marched to the residence OF Vice-Presi-
dent-elect Stevenson. General Steven
son, Hon. James Mckenzie of Kankakee,
Hon. James Ewing and Hon. Owen Scott
entered carriage and joined the line.
After marching about Franklin park the
line headed for the Durfy theater, which
was soon filled to its utmost capacity.
General Stevenson was introduced and
made speech of considerable length,
principally of felicitous nature, thank
ing the Sssemblage for the reception and
his countrymen for the honor bestowed
upon him.
After commenting the ability and the
high personal character of the gentle
men on the opposing tickets, he referred
to the good feeling during the campaign,
and said: "May we not hope that the
great political ssruggle of 1892 will in
augurate new era in American poll
tics, and that calm discussion and re-
spectful consideration for the opinions
of our opponents will characterize the
presidential contests of the future"
He then reviewed the tenets of the
Democratic faith, and paid high COM
pliment to Grover Cleveland, closing
with an expression of his earnest en-
deavor to discharge the duties Of the
high Office to which he was called.
Several other speakers followed with
short talks.
Among the stacks OF letters which
have accumulated Tor Stevenson since
election day, he today found one from
President-elect Cleveland, mailed sew
eral days ago. It was mainly of q ari-
vate nature, and Mr.. Stevenson declined
to make it public.
Stevenson said tonight to an Asso-
ciated Press reporter that he had not
given out for publication any interview
regarding special session of congress !;
that he had repeatedly declined to be
interviewed on the subject, for the rea-
eon that Mr.. Cleveland, as president
elect, was the proper person to speak
upon this matter.

TURMOIL AT HOMESTEAD.
MORE SHOOTING AND CUTTING IN
DULGED IL.
An Inclpient Riot Last Night-The Par
ticipants in Sundays Riot Admit
ted to Bail-Strike Lead
ers in Session.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, Nov. I4.-Excite
ment over yesterdays battle is still
intense, but no disorder has occurred
except some hooting when the colored
men who did the shooting were taken
from the lookup to the train. Two
strikers were arrested this morning for
assaulting non-union men. Eight col
ored men and two strikers, implicated
in Sundays fight, were held in $500 bail
each.
At IL O'Clock tonight a quarrel oc-
Cured between colored non-unionists
and Homestead colored men, just out
side the Ninth-avenue M. E. church.
The non-unionists drew revolvers and
numbar of shots were fred, but no one
was hit. During the fight two white
men came along and one of them cut
negro with knife. Several arrests
were made and now all is quiet.
PTTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 14.-It is prob
able that within short time decided
change will take place in the strike sit
uation at Homestead and other points.
A meeting of the advisory boards of the
Amalgamated association at different
points was in session tonight and to-
morrow will determine whether or
not the strikes shall continue.
Partial resumption of work, to-
gether with the expense OF support
ing the strikers, and capped by yester-
days trouble at Homestead. has rem
dered it necessary that some action be
taken. As far as can be learned it is
thought the leaders are likely to issue
another manifesto and urge the men to
continue the battle.

LONDON, Nov. 15.-Neill, the Lambeth
poisoner, was hanged at 8 o'clock this
CTuesday) morning.
The execution was strictly private,
the only persons who were present being
Kynaston Metcalf, under sheriff of the
county of London; the execution
er and the prison officials. Aft
er Neill was sentenced the closest
watch was kept upon him at
Newgate prison. The warden vouch-
safed early this morning only the in

to writing throughout the day, fire.
quently leaving off, being obliged to
rest. He was silent, irritable and moody.
Ellington, the hangman, saw Neill
today, through the inspection wicket,
taking note of his height and build,
while the convict paced to and fro in
his cell. Usually the hangman has an
interview with the condemned, making
the closest possible survey of his physique
and taking an eye measurement Of the
strength of the neck and gauging the
weight of the body. This appears to
have been spared Neill.
From the cell to the scaffold, along
tagged corridor, is a minutes walk.
The scaffold was erected in the court
yard. within an enclosure, making it in
visible from any point on the surround
ing buildings.
The instant the drop was made black
flag was hoisted on the prison flagstaff,
to make known to the outside world
that justice had been satisfied.
A formal inquest will take place at
noon. and be followed Immediately by
the burial. The body will be encased
in coffin filed with quicklime, and
placed under fagstones in the corridor,
over which the doomed man
treads his way to the scaffold.
This is perhaps the ghastlieet
spot in the world. Under the tagging
of this corridor have been buried the
bodies of long succession of notable
and obscure criminals.
Neill had two interviews yesterday
with Solicitor Waters. In the first be
gave instructions for the drawing up Of
his will. Waters called again last night
with the document for Neill's signature.
Neill made no confession, but Waters
urged him to give heed to the ministra-
tions of the chaplain during the short
time remsining to him, and advised
him, if he desired to unburden his mind,
to do go to the chaplain.
1t was only when Waters finished ex-
horting him that Neill seemed to fully
realize his position. He broke down
completely and expressed his indebted
ness TO the solicitor and admitted that
the lawyer had spared no effort to save
his life. The scene at the parting was
painful.

THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE.

The Status of All but Three States Now
Known.
The official canvass of the presidential
vote has been completed in only q few
states, In all but three, however-Ohio,
California and Wyoming-the count has
progressed far enough to set all doubts
at rest. Taking the returns as they now
stand, Mr.. Cleveland has 269 of the 444
electoral votes; Harrison, III and
Weaver %, while 35 are still in the
doubtful column.
In the foregoing calculation the cleo
toral vote OF Michigan is equally divided
between Cleveland and Harrison, al
though the Republicans still claim to
have of the IA electors. The Demo-
Gratis, however, with equal confidence
assert that the official canvass will give
Cleveland and Harrison 7.
North Dakota, which was at one time
conceded to the Republicans, and then
considered doubtful, is now conclusively
in the Weaver column, making five
states carried by the Peoples party.
decide between Weaver and Harrison.
ity either way.
As to Ohio and California, there are
no new developments. The probabili-
ties seem to favor the Republicans, but
the Democrats are not without hope
that the final count will show that these
hitherto strong Republican states will
add their combined so votes to Cleve-
lands already magnificent majority,
making the sum total for Cleveland and
Stevenson 301, as against Harrison and
Reid's paltry liz or 120.
Following is table of the vote as it
now stands:
Los Angeles herald., 1892-11-15

not to call an extra session of congress
after his Inauguration on March 4th
next. 1t further announces that in
the estimation at present of Mr..
Cleveland and his closest friends an
extra session would turn out to be a
proftless proceeding. His friends say
Mr.. Cleveland must have time after his
Inauguration to look over the ground.
There is natural objection to the re-
assembling OF congress Immediately
after the Inauguration, on Tie ground
that it would have more or less of an
unsettling influence on the business of
the country.

UNDER THE BAN,
Holy Boycott Instituted Against Two
Canadian Papers


Canadian Papers.
MONTREAL, Nov. 14.-A good deal of
interest is felt in French Catholic circles
over an important circular letter from
Archbishop Fabre, which was read in all
the churches in the diocese Yesterday.
About the time Of the famous Guyote
ecandal, two weekly publications. viz
La Canada Revue and LIE Echo des Deux
Montagnes, became quite violent over
alleged abuses amongst the clergy. and
Tor some time it has been expected
that the church authorities would
take action. His grace states that
he hoped the previous warnings
would have prevented a repetition
OF these attacks, but such was not the
case, and he continued as follows: "The
holy name of God being invoked, we
therefore condemn of our authority two
publications printed in our diocese, viz:
La Canada Revue and lie Echo des
Deux Montagnes, and forbid until fur
ther orders all the faithful, under pain
OF the refusal of the sacrament, to print,
or place or put on sale, distribute, read
or receive these two dangerous sheets,
or to write for them, or to encourage
them IN any manner"
The letter was ordered read in all the
parish churches.

ing shot and killed Policeman Alexander
Grant on the night of September IL,
1891, came up before Judge Murphy of
the superior court. Curtis is charged
with having killed the policeman while
resisting arrest for disorderly conduct.
At the former trial, in which the jury
disagreed, the defense aimed to chow
that the policeman was shot and killed
by a footpad and that the arrest of Cur
tis was case of mistaken identity. The
proceedings today were confined to the
task of securing a jury, which is ex-
pected to occupy most of the week.

Port-au-Prince, Hayti, November 1st.
"On that day." said one of the officers,
"almost all the people seemed to be un-

1t was the people of the north who

REMINDED OF WAR TIMES.

Citizens of Eastern Kentucky Resist the
Railroad Tax.
GRAYsoN, KY, Nov. 14.-The citizens
of this place were reminded of war times
today when 800 mounted men, followed
by as many more on foot, came into
town to make demonstration against
the railroad tax Collector Brown had
levied upon some land and adver-
tised it for sale today. The citizens of
the county arose en- masse to oppose the
sale. Brown was forced to forego the
sale and resign the collectorship. This,
it is believed, settles the railroad tax
question in this county.

THE HOLMES COMET
1t Appears to Be Identical With That of
Biela.

IL appears TO lie Identical With That of
Biela.
ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 14.-Prof. Louis
Boss OF Dudley observatory finds that
the comet discovered by Holmes is very
probably identical with Biela's periodic
comet, which has not certainly been
recognized since 1852. This confirms
the suspicion telegraphed from Berlin
by Professor Erberich some days ago,
Professor Boss thinks it likely that
there is to be very close approach be-
tween the comet and the earth on the
morning of November 28th, in case the
supposed identity between the comets
OF Holmes and Bella proves to be fact.
The observations at present are ineuffi-
clent to demonstrate this identity be-
yOnd doubt.

Sioux FALLS, S. D., Nov. 14.-Returns

the remaining counties will make a ma
