Colonel John R. Fellows places the
dimensions of the Democratic victory
in the State of New York this autumn.
How do you figure it out?" he was
asked.
New York city," replied Colonel
Fellows, will give Cleveland 60, 600
majority, Kings county will give him
900 more and the other Democratic
counties on Long Island ought to be

why do you think Kings county will
give Mr.. Cleveland 10000 majority this
year when it only gave him l., 900 four
years ago."
-Four years ago." was the reply,
"kings was stolen from us. Mr.. Nc
Laughlin was as certain that Clevelan
would have eighteen thousand majority
in Kings as he could be certain of any

him as 1T was to anybody when he saw
how the vote had fallen off. The Re-
publicans threw an enormous corruption
fund into Brooklyn and stole it from

to buy up voters under that law with

reason we think we will have at least

Kings county ought to be at least 1000
beyond what we figured it four years
ago"
"If your estimates are correct it would
indicate that Tammany Hall is going to
do its whole duty by the Democratic
ticket?"

remarked. Opposed Mr.. Cleveland at
Chicago on the ground that IL nominated

reconcile that with your declaration
that you are going to roll up an in

Some OF our people were little in
iudicious in saying that. The great ma

not 80 extreme as that. They simply
said we would have some difficulty in

PARIS, June 3o.-The Figaro yester

called military attache of the American
Legation, who is accused Of procuring
plans of the French dofences for his
government, acted in the interests of
Germany and Italy he abused French
hospitality If he acted solely on be-
half OF his own government the Wash
ington cabinet will be able to absolye
him only by invoking usage and pre-
cedents. This opinion is held by the
members of the diplomatic body.
M Naquet, the Boulangist member of
the chamber of deputies, who at first
purposed to interpolate the government
in regard to the Borup affair, but who
subsequently, on the recall of Captain
Borup, told reporter to day that he
had intended to express in his speech
in the chamber Frances strong friend
ship for the United States. and to lie.
clare he was ertain that tho American
government disapproved the principle
enunciated by Captain Borup that spy
ing ON the part of diplomats was proper
when done for the benefit of their gov.
ernments. This theory. M. Naquet said
he was determined to combat. The
view M. Naquet takes of the matter, he
SAYS, is shared by the civil and military
officials in Paris, though it is we'll

choose temporary chairman. There
are not enough Of the committeeman
mere yet to indicate who will preside
over the temporary organization OF tho

contest for seats.
M. ID. Irwin, editor of the Southern

a Western man. For myself-and / be-

Word was received in Omaha to-day
that Senator Stewart, of Nevada, had
written letter absolutely boiling the
Republican party. 1t was also init
mated that Senator Jones, his colleague,
would do likewise, and as conseo uence

leads.
