HENRY GEORGE PLEASED.
He Says Cleveland Should Get in
by Landslide.

New YORK, June 26.-Henry George
is delighted with the Democratic plat
form and particularly the tariff plank is
pleasing to the single-tax champion. He
AYERS that the Democrats will COM
pletelv oust the Republican candidates
and wipe the principles they represent
off mother earth'S face. In the eX-
uberance of his manner he said: "The
only reason for Mr.. Cleyeland's nomina-
ton and the thing that forced his NOM
ination in spite of all the efforts of the
politicians was the fact that i'll the
minds of the Democratic masses he
represents the idea of free trade. The
platform is an unmistakable declaration
against all parleying with protection.
1t puts the Democratic party in the
field as committed to the policy Of
sweeping away every shred of pro-
tectiVe duty. If the Democratic leaders
show the courage of their platform and
make the campaign an aggressive at
tack upon the protection robbery look
for the election of Mr.. Cleveland, not
by a narrow majority, but by political
LANDSLIDE"

THEY ARE FIGHTING.
Harrison and Gov. Chase Don't
Like Each Other.

INDIANAPOLIS. June 26.-POlitical in
terest throughout Indiana is now CEN
tering upon the Republican state con-
vention, which meets at Fort Wayne
Tuesday next, and, as the battle is to
be fought between the friends of Gov.
Chase on the one side and all the force
that the Harrison administration can
marshal On the other, it promises to be
indeed battle royal. and important in
the consequences which shall result to
the party. Chase appears as winner,
and only the Vaccinations of his op-
ponentS can now take the nomination
upon 95S votes out of the 1.400
which the convention will cast,
but there are so many open
candidates and so many that
are likely to come in at different stages
in the proceedings as dark horses, that
the vote will be materially reduced, and
his friends would be fully satisfied with
a bare majority. Out of the ninety-two
counties there are twenty-one instructed
for Chase, and he possesses a big adj
vantage in having an instructed vote in
each of the congressional districts from
which his opponents hail. Though
District Attorney Chambers has been
an avowed candidate for several months,
heath, and will enter the convention
with five counties from Chambers dis
trict instructed for him. The influence
which could be exerted by the Sixth
district is largely nullitied by the fact
that it will present two candidates.
Huston and Shockney, and the Eleventh
district is hardly better situated, as it
will present from the same county a
candidate both for the first and second
place. szSa -
Ex-Congressman Steele, of Marion, is
a candidate, and Hiram Brownlee of the
same place wants the second place.
Brownlee is making all open fight
against Steele on the ground that he
voted for Carlisle in the contest of the
latter with the labor candidate from the
Covington district. 1t was on this issue
that BrOwnlee beat Steele for delegate
to the national Republican convention,
and he is sustained with good effect in
his effort to nominate Chase. The lat
ler's opponents, however, are fertile in
resources, and it is believed that they
will bring out candidates from all sec
tions of the state and protract the bal
loting till the Chase men consent to
leave their favorite. The railroad en-
ployes, who advocated the passage of
the employees co-liability measure in the
last legislature, are making deter
mined fight against Chase, but. as
usual, other railroad men are fighting
for him, and statements and counter
statements are being printed and circu-
lated to be used among the delegates.

THE PROHIBITIONISTS.
They Are Getting Ready for Work
at Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI, o., June 26.-The ad-
vance guard of the national Prohibi-
zionist convention has been Struggling
in for several days. This being the
Sabbath, there were comparatively few
arrivals. OF delegates and friends
of the Prohibition movement there
are several hundred in the city tonight,
A mass meeting was held this after
noon at Music hall, over which Mrs,
Frances r. Willard Of the WOman's
Christian Temperance union, presided.
By the way, there are present in the
city quite large number of members
of the WOman's Christian Temperance
union. Mrs. Willard in the chair at
the Music hall mass meeting, made a
very brief but characteristic address in
which she pressed her full sympathy
with prohibition politics and eXhorted
the party to enter upon radically ag-
gressive policy.
The first speaker was Mr.. Boole. a
delegate from New York. He reviewed
the progress and prOphesed the ulti-
mate success of prohibition. 1t was OF
no use to look for an efficient enforce
ment of prohibition laws elsewhere than
from the Prohibition party.
Rev. L. B. Leonard, formerly OF Ohio,
once a Prohibition candidate for gov
ernor of this state, spoke next. He
violently attacked the license system as
making the state a partceps criminis.
In reviewing the prospects OF the Pro-
hibition movement he called attention
to the rapid advances it had made in
many of the Southern states. Samuel
Dickie, of Michigan, made the closing
address, dwelling on the crime and inn
morality which the liquor business
causes. He advocated nothing less than
the total destruction OF the liquor
traffic.
uIn an interview on the subject of
platform this evening Miss Willard,
speaking for herself. said she would
like to see engrafted in the platform a
plank for the total suppression of the
liquor traffic and a woman's suffrage
plank. AS to the labor plank. she her
self is a Christian socialist, and would
like to sec labor plank formed accord
ingly. She was in favor of one term for
the president and for dispensing with
wars by means of arbitration. On the
tariff and money question she would
prefer moderately conservative plank.

almost as much as though he had made
no beginning. Mayor Wright was
elected on a platform which denounced
St. Paul as not only the worst-governed
city in the world, but den of thieves
and a modern Gomorrah in all respects.
This lamentable state of affairs he was
pledged to remedy. He was going
to drive out the scarlet sister
hood and curb the liquor evil.
He was enthusiastically supported by
the prohibitionists on the assurance,
solemnly reiterated. that he would ell
force the saloon laws, and he was in
dorsed by the pulpit in the belief that
he would be a holy terror generally to
evil doors. 1t is true that all the time
these solemn pledges were being made
Col. Wright was slyly winking the other
eye at the liquor men, and his friends
were assuring them. they would be all
right' in the event of his election.
Naturally. the mayor of st. Paul is now
in very unpleasant position. He cannot
keep the diametricallY opposite promises
made In his name, and it may readily be
seen which element he intends to
ignore. Yesterday was Sunday. and it
must have pleased the prohibltiOnista
and "our best people; generally to OBJ
serve that during the entire day, and
clear up to the short hours of this morn
ing, the saloons, beer halls, casinos and
concert gardens we're running at full
blast. The cold, damp weather made
the thirst resorts less popular than
usual, but they were wide open, and
those places furnished with the alluring

raignment of the force bill is the most
prominent plank; that the tariff plank
is all that could be asked for, the amend
ment adopted being a mere change OF
phraseologY; that the denunciation OF
the trusts and syndicates is complete,
the section being written by him. The
silver plank he holds to be for absolute
free silver: its declaration for free coin
age covers gold and silver, and the fact
that gold Is already free gives the same
character to the demand for the kindred
metals, which is to put it on parity
with it in all respects. The platform
makes silver free as gold.
Mr.. Garrard wrote out and had In
serted section S: I'VE recommend that
the prohibitive 10 per cent tax on state
bank issues be repealed" A law of
that kind. he says, would take from the
national banks the power to contract
the currency, and the insertion of the
plank was concession to the South"
1.-The PLATFORM" he argues, ''should
receive the support of every Alliance
man in the South"

CmCAGO, June 26.-Five square miles
of territory adjacent 10 the village of
Dauphin, a suburb of this city, are
buried beneath food tonight, and
thousand or more houses between State
street and Lake Michigan are at the
mercy of the waves, which strong
northeast wind has forced through the
Easements and first floors. The great
body of water which has been collecting
in the region has broken all barriers,
and this afternoon burst the last barrier
at Eighty-Scyenth street. rushing down
with terrific force upon Grand Crossing,
whose citizens are panic-stricken by
the sight of q sea Of rising water. invad-
ing every home, driving hOusehOlders
either from their dwellings or to the sec
ond stories. At the present writing there
is not less than two feet of water in the
streets. Every easements flooded, and
the foundations of numbers of buildings
are weakened. The immediate cause
of the food is the breaking Of the Eigh-
ty-Seventh street bank. due to an ac-
cumulatiOn of water during the recent
storm. Grand Crossing at midnight
was in despair At Fordham and
Dauphin Park the suffering was only
less in degree in that there were fewer
to suffer and a less number to expert
ence the terror OF a possible death be-
fore morning in waters which were ris-
ing at the rate of one inch all hour.
Every effort is being made by those Ov-
ertaken by the food t0 escape with their
families. 1t is only by means of i'm
provised RATS that movement from one
house to another is possible. Up to the
present no loss of life is reported, but
rescue parties have started 10 help
those whose perilous condition gives
rise to a fear for their safety. Two
boys were drowned in that part of the
West branch known as Mud lake today.
There are rumOrs that the food has
been caused by the embankment being
cut as the result of rivalry between real
estate men. The water is at a stand
still, and it is not likely that any deaths
will occur from drowning. There is no
outlet. however, for the stream, so that
it will only disappear by soaking
through the soft earth and evaporation.
As a consequence, an outbreak OF ty-
phOid or some other disease is feared.
a AT midnight the flood mad spread to
the suburb Burnside, and the entire
village will be submerged to depth of
one foot by morning.

CAN THIS BE TRUE?
Rumor That 1000 People Have
Been Lost on the Atlantic.

New YORK. June 26.-Mariners here
express the opinion that terrible dis
aster has recently occurred at sea some
where near this port, in which
more than thousand souls
have perished The facts that
lead to this opinion are that Saturday
the steamer Ocean arrived and reported
that last Thursday the wreck of full
Tigged ship was passed in latitude 40
deg % min north and longitude 6S deg
90 min west. The captain of the Ocean
made careful examination to ascertain
the name of the craft, but, owing to the
wreck being overturned and partly
submerged, he could only make out the
words yarmouth, n. S." on the stern.
The vessel was short the forward
mizzen mast and had evidently been in
a collision. The description of the
wreck. as given by the Ocean. leads to
the belief that the vessel is the British
sailing ship Fred. b. Taylor, of
Yarmouth. n. S. This vessel
was sighted 900 miles from
Sandy Hook June 2, and should have
reached port over week ago. The
steamship Vega, with a crew of sixty
men, commanded by Capt. Rosa. sailed
from LisLol on June for the Azores
and New York. She had SIC passengers
when she sailed from Lisbon, and it is
expected that she shipped nearly twice
That many from the ports in the Azores.
The steamer was due here last Tuesday,
but she has not arrived. Her agents
are very anxious regarding the vessel,
while scores of friends of the passengers
have been besieging the barge office to
learn something Of the whereabouts of
the vessel and its human freight.
in view of these facts, there
fore. those versed in maritime
affairs are of the opinion that a collision
has occurred between the Vega and the
Fred B. Taylor, and that the loss of life
has been appalling. F. E. Hurlbut was
the commander of the Taylor. His
young wife is IN the city, but knows
nothing of the terrible disaster that may
have befallen her husband.

Saloons and Wine Rooms Know

no Sunday.
The saloons and wine rooms of this
city were wide open in every direction
all over town yesterday, and although
they closed up at sharp midnight. it
was laughable travesty on law. The
day was cool. and the thirst tor beer
was not great. so that the ordinary Sun
day crowds were not ont. This was
especially noticeable during the day
light, and chnrchgoers in the morn
ing were regaled by little groups
of men in the do0rways of the
saloons. the loungers prefering the open
air before the storm. In the afternoon
there was a noticeable absence of the
usual crowds upon the streets and,
the several railroad lines and the,
saloons had light trade, though their
doors were wide open. At night the
barkeeperS for the most part had little
to do early i'll the evening, and a trip
through the seventeen saloons which
contain the wine room or stall accom-
paniment found few occupants. 1t was
not until toward II O'Clock, after the
theaters were over, that the usual
crowds arrived. About that hour. things

THE JURY's FINDING.
Oil Tanks Built Too Near Titus
ViIIe'S Center.

TITUsyILLE, Pa, June 26.-The cor
oner's jury have found that the victims
of the late flood and fire met their death
by drowning or burning, or both. In
answer TO the statements in the public
press that the dams above the town
were unsafe, the jury find that the
amount of water escaping through the
dams could have done no material dam
age. By calculation Of the amount of rain
that fell. it was found that this would
fully account for all the flood water.
In regard to the burning oil, they
consider the question of how it took fire
to be all unimpOrtant one. They
thought the vapors of the benZine prob
badly ignited from the burning lights in
houses. The burning oil undoubtedly
caused more than One-half of the deaths.
The lesson of this loss of life should be
needed, however, by the manufacturers
of oil, who had of late years become
needless. The jury urged that the
citizens do all in their power to have oil
tanks placed outside the built-up por-
ton of the city. The permanent relief
committee is still busy at work. The
amount received from outside sub
scriptions amounts TO about S79. 1000.
This is about One-half of what is needed.
