The day was a beautiful one and it is esti-

The mare came out at 3 :45 o'clock driven
by Doble, and was greeted with 6eafening
applause. The first start was a false one,
but tile second time she got off well. She
made the quarter in :32k. and the cheering
broke out afresh.
Steadily she flew around the turn and
reached the half in / :031@. Doble was driv-
ing as he never drove before. Nancy
reached the three quarter flag in :34b and
came on at rafting gait. She was steady
and acted nobly. AS she entered the
stretch there was scarcely movement or
sound from the crowd.
The beautiful mare approached the grand
stand with the Drettiest gait Imaginable.
Doble leaned forward, and giving ner free
rein, like the wind she came down the
stretch. and just as she reached the wire
she turned her head toward the grand stand
as IL conscious she had broken the worlds

The crowd waited impatiently, and when

Bids for Ocean Mail Service Land Gases
Decided Pensions Granted.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Postmaster-G Gen.
eral Wanamaker ordered the bids opened
tor ocean mail service to Buenos Ayres,
Rio de Janeiro and other South American
parts, to Southampton and to Antwerp Mr..
Wanamaker was highly gratifed at the bids.
The southern service bid was by the United
States and Brazilian Mail Steamship Com
pany, and the European by the Interna-
tional Navigation Company.
The proposals of the latter company will
require tour or five new ships Of the first
type. necessitating an outlay of $S.000,000
to S1O,000,00O, and the service proposed is
not only first-class, but double first-class,
because 1t contemplates whatnever was be-
fore done-that Is, line from an Ameri-
can port carrying malls and passengers not
only to British port, but to French port
also. Southampton and B0ul0gne or Havre
will be the ports OF call.
There is also an offer of a line from
Buenos Ayres. The company bidding
states that 1t can start the first steamer by
the end OF the present month. and this will
be the first ship with the American flag on
the River Platte. As tho Argentine country
Is now quarantined against British and

Senator CHllOm Opens The Campaign in
Illinois.

JOLIET, Ill. Sept. Senator Shelby n.
Cullom Of Illinois made the first speech Of
the campaign as the exponent of Repub-
lican principles at the Chautauqua grounds
this afternoon. There was large crowd III
attendance, and the speech was much ap-
pauded. The tariff question was the prin-
cipal subject under discussion. the Senator
saying that for once the Democratic party
has declared frankly its position on this
question for free trade. The issue is now
fairly made up. and IN this campaign the
two parties 90 before the country to discuss
tie question upon its merlts-free trade VS..
protection.
After 100 years Of tariff legislation, much
of it under Democratic administrations, the
Democrats suddenly discover and declare
in their platform that ii is uncOnstitution al
to shape tariff act so as to give protection
to American manufacturers while securing
q necessary revenue to carry on the Gov
ernment The Democratic platform found
hearty cOmmendaton from the English and
European press generally, but would not
meet the approval of the American people,
for whom it is the function of the American
Congress to legislate.
Senator Cullom devoted much time to
reviewing the benefits that have accrued
the United States, and showed by CON-
parison how il gradually reduced the cost
Of living. Abiding to the tn-plste ques-
ton, he declared that under the protection
of the Mckinley bill 13, Gao. 900 pounds Of
tin plate had been produced in this country
during the year ending June 30 last. This
result totally destroyed the position of the
Democratic party on this question, as facts
are more potent than theories.
The farmers sometimes complained Of
protection, but the surest method TO ad-
vance the prices on all farm produce and
crops is through diversity of labor, so as
to produce home consumption for American
products. The establishment Of new in
dustries and manufactures by protection is
the solution"
In conclusion Senator Cullom paid glow
ing tribute to James G. Blaine as the author
OF the system Of reciprocity and denounced
the Democrats for their pretensions on that
subject. He also arraigned the Democratic
party as being, according to their present
platform, in favor of tie abolition of na-
tonal banks and return to the old State
bank system. They would discard the 100
cent national currency and return to the
Tec-d0g and wildcat currency. The Repub-
lican party favOrs maintaining the present

been strong. for while yet In his nineteenth
year he contributed anonymous verse TO the
poets corner of the Free Press, journal
edited by w. l.. Garrison in Newburyport

rison saw signs of promise in these imma-
