Indications point in the direction of tell
ing us that there is going to be more inter-
est in the Maher and Fitzsimmons battle
than many of us at first thought. 1t seems
to me that there is going to be as much
money invested on the event as was invested
on Fitz and Dempsey. Of course while 1
am still inclined to favor the chances OF the
Australian 1 hold that the odds ought to be
on the Irish champion. There are many
things in his favor, although, as | have
already pointed out, he is an unknown
quantity, except that the only first rater he
met he was badly beaten. That first rater
was Peter jackson. But the advantages he
has over the Australian, which have been
enumerated In these columns, ought In fair
ness to make him favorite.
According to reports both men are train
ing we'll and both are confident But have
nothing to add this week to what 1 said two
weeks ago.
RYAN and Needham are also doing well in
their training, and 1 am still of opinion
that Daniel will again be beaten. The Chi
csgo pugilst is favorite, and I would be
surprised if he was not. In my estimation
he has in all his contests proved himself a
fighter of the good and useful sort True,
Needham is good man, but he must needs
be better than expect n he is to defeat

The County League leaders have com
pleted their circuit and almost gotten every
thing into shape for the opening OF their
season. One pleasing feature of this little
organization is the undoubted correctness
of the gentlemen who are at the head Of it.
The work that these gentlemen do is much
more wearying than the public knows of,
and vet it is all labor of love with them.
This fact alone tells torcibly of the earnest
ness.
One great difficulty that the County
League has had to contend with is the un-
certainty of its clubs retaining its players.
For club to keep its good men extra
money inducements have been necessary
and, of course, this has handicapped the
particular clubs. Now there is no reason at
all why such things should be- All clubs
in the League state they are not out to
make money as much as they are out to en-
joy the national game. Then why should
there be spirit OF piracy prevailing to the

immigration, but they are dead-letters,
and have been violated at the landing
Of every immigrant ship. This laxity has
made the United States the dumping
ground for the human scum and otfal OF
Europe. Foreign governments have
aided these people out Of their native
countries, and the United States have re-
ceived them with open arms. To-day
New York harbor is crowded with yes

WWhen the twenty days Of quarantine
are ended Immigration will continue
about as before. There will not be

dents proclamation with permanent
law, but such law should be passed

troll OF immigration.

POLITICAL MATTERS.
PROMINENT SPEAKERS ADDRESS A MEETING
OF THE CENTRAL REPUBLICAN CLUB.
Secretary Allen Gives Some Pointers About the
State-PeOple's Party Convention at
Moundsvills-0hsr
Meetings

a we'll attended meeting OF the Cen
trai Republican Club was held last
night at Busbey's Hall on Market
street. The first speaker introduced
was Editor "Birdie" Hart, Of the Intel
liqencer, who devoted about half an
hour to a discussion of the tariff ques-
ton, and State issues.
The next speaker was Il. c. Her
vev, of Wellsburg, candidate for State
Senator. Mr.. Hervey is a pleasing
talker, and his twenty minutes address
| was well received. 1t was devoted to
discussion OF the tariff. He promised
to deliver q more elaborate address be-
| fore an Ohio county audience later In
the campaign.
S. &. Smith, candidate for the Legis-
lature, next spoke. The burden OF his
remarks was a reply to the statement
made by Col. w. A. MecCorkle, that
the period when the Walker tariff was
in operation was the golden idyllic era
| Of prosperity" reading extracts from
the messages Of Presidents Fillmore
and Buchanan, to prove that the re-
verse is true. He next talked OF the
enormous salaries Of State officials.
S. O. BOyce, candidate for Prose-
| cutting Attorney, was the next speaker.
He told his hearers that they under
| stood the tariff question better than he
! did, and wisely refrained from discus
| sion of it, combining his remarks TO a
prediction of Republican success all
around.
Mr. Allen, Secretary Of the Republi-
can State League of Clubs, said he had
recently visited forty-four counties, and
if the meeting was confidential one,
! he would have facts and figures TO show
that the State would go Republican by
handsome majority. There are more
Republicans than Democrats in the
| State anyhow, and the only thing neces-
i sary is to get out the vote. In one
county, he could name ii II necessary,
he had organized sixteen clubs this
year; in 1883 there was not one. Look
out for that county on election day." he
continued. "We are stronger to-day
than we ever were. l know what | am
talking about. But we will come
into contact with $4,000 cash,
which the Democrats got from
New York week before last. l was in
Charleston when they left and | was
there when they returned, and | know
all about it. We must offset their Doodle
by honesty. We are right. Republicans
are always right; and the right will
triumph.
SIN Huntington went into the con-
vention, and asked the Ohio county
delegation how matters stood up there.
They said 'We will elect three mem
bers Of the Legislature.' l said, What's
the matter with the fourth?' on. we
don't think we can elect KIM" The
speaker did not think this was the
proper policy. They should center their
strength on the weak man and pull him
up. They are telling it down in the
State" he said, "that you pointing his
finger to group OF workmen are for
sale Is it possible, that when the Re
publican party made it possible for you
to come up here tonight with your
white shirts and collars on, that 1t can
be said Of you that you are for sale?"

New YORK, September 1O.-The

from Swuburne Island said that two
dead bodies and eleven cases Of cholera
had been removed from the Scandal al
that hour. Since that hour no definite
information has been received from the

Rugia, Wyoming, Wieland and Scandal
now form q ghostly feet enveloped in a
pall-like FOG which prevents the watch
ers on the shore from making out
whether or not the dreaded yellow flag
is again thrown 10 the breeze. But
there is a silver lining 10 this dark
cloud for the health authorities still

and the Kaiser Wilhelm from Bremen
has passed Fire Island, after hosting

LONDON, September 1O.-The Berlin
correspondent of the Standard says:
The Bundesrath is considering a sug-
gestion TO address collective represen-
tation to the Hamburg Senate, with a
view TO securing the rest OF Germany,
as far as possible, from danger OF infec-
tiOn from Hamburg.
Three men and woman have died
from cholera on board Of barge which
came from Hamburg. These deaths
occurred at a village near Berlin.
six hundred trained nurses and hos
pital attendants have been sent TO Ham
burg, and more are wanted in that
plague stricken city"
The Copenhagen correspondent of the
Standard says: Three young doctors
who were attacked with cholera on Sat
urday last are now recovering"
Advices received by the Standard
from Paris are To the effect that no fresh
cases of cholera have been reported at
Dunkirk but that one death occurred
there to-day.

THE arrival Of the steamer Scandal
has added considerable TO the danger Of

her trip from Hamburg thirty-two
deaths occurred from the plague and
she examining doctor at New York
found seven virulent cases aboard on
her arrival. These cases were not con-
fined 10 the steerage. Two Of the crew
and one Of the cabin passengers were
victims. The vessel is infected from

The GUARANTEED PASSENGERS.

THE Guaranteed PASSENGERS.
The officials are becoming impressed
with the important fact that proclaim
ing a general quarantine is one thing
and carrying it into effect is another.
What is to be done with the hundreds
OF passengers who are penued up like
cattle on the Quarantined vessels? The
LONGER they stay there the greater be-
comes the danger OF the cholera spread
ing amongst them aud TO New York
City.
The fact is plain that it is a badly
botched job on the part Of the govern
mert officials. New York harbor is
entirely lacking I'm the facilities Of a
quarantine station and thus far the
Presidents order, on this account, has
had an effect opposite 70 that intended.
The officials in New York and from
Washington have been DuZzing about
Quarantine at q great rate, but the
only practical attempt TO solve the
problem has been started by MIR. PIER
PoNr MORGAN, who did no talking, but
Quietly chartered a steamer and placed
il at the disposal Of the Health officers,
for the relief OF the N0rmauni1's pas
seIgers.
It's idiotic and cruel TO keep these
people penned up on vessels with the
plague aboard Of them. Keep them out
of the country, If necessary, but provide
for their safety. Give them at least an
equal chance with the rest Of US for
their lives.
