The South is responding to the call
Of New York State for the support Of
Senator Hill for the Presidency. The
declaration of Republicans and some
Of our MugwumDian friends ttatSena-
tor Hill had lost favor in the South
since he made his tour TO Mississippi,
Alabama and Georgia seems to be
controyerted by figures from Southern
States. Meanwhile the enthusiasm
for Senator Hill in this and other
states must grow and spread until his
nomination at Chicago will become a
foregone conclusion. Buffalo Times.

The department of agriculture is
accused by the st. Louis cotton ex-
change of sending out incorrect state
ments regarding the distribution of
crops. These statements are said to
have been guessed at and not madeup
from reliable crop returns. Tins what
has been feared has come to pass.
Jerry Rusk has not only put the
weather o1tzof joint and mixed it up
very badly, but has done the same
thing with the crops. He is farmer
who has not followed his furrow.

Replies TO Some of Elkins' statements
Concerning state Issues.

D,v1s. w. VA. October 25.-Gen. G. c.
Watts spoke to an audience Oh tour nun
ired 10 five hundred people in the Town
Hail here last night He spoke little
more than two hours and held the closest
attention of his hearers. He paid due at
tention TO the various phases OF the tariff
and found time to speak about the Force
Mil and State issues besides. He spoke
of the laws enacted by the last
LEGISLATURE, commonly known as the coal
miners law. the anti-scrlpG law ana the
mechanics lien law and showed that tneSe
laws simply give 10 employer and employee
their inst dues and no more.
Mr.. Ellkins had said IN one OF MS speech
es that the Democratic party In this State
deserves defeat on account OF the passage
of these labor laws and Mr.. Elklns
sIso said the Republicans must carry the
Sta+e legislature so as TO prevent the
Enactment of sny more such measures. Mr.
SVotts made q good point out OF this oy
sboTvinO that Elkins and the Republican
,,srtv are opposed 10 the laborer being
lE.,,arantesd MS rights. The good strong
SSoo;nrs in the Generals speech were many
Ind ali well received. During the speech

Special 7steoram 10 the Register.
WASHINGTON, D. c., October 25.-Mr.
Wayne MacVeagh, Garteld's Attorney
General, who recently paralyzed the Re
publicans by coming out for Cleveland IN
ringing letter. followed by a brilliant
speech, was in Washington to-day. He
said he was confident Cleveland would oe
elected. The tone OF public sentiment de-
manded better men and better methods IN
politics. The people were not doing as
much parading and hurrahing, out
they were thinking seriously OF the
moral side of politics, and they had
evidently become convinced that the time
had come to lift it to higher plane. They
were using their reason and could no long
er be influenced by partisan prejudice. Mr.,
MacVeagh said he said he had discovered
evidence of this in the thousands OF letters
of thanks he had received, because OF his
recent public utterances in the newspapers
and en- the platform in Philadelphia. He
has received such letters, he says, from all
parts of the country; from some OF
the most prominent persons in the
country and from plain people In
many Of the States and in all is
expressed an appreciation of the moral pur-
pose discerned in what he wrote or said.
The fact that it is the avowed purpose OF
those who are trying to elect Mr.. Cleve-
land to bring the people back to serious
consideration of the principles and to con-
slider the well being of the great mass oi
people rather than the will OF mere poll
ticians he regards as an assurance or the
support of tue people who are seriously
considering only what will be best for the
country.

LOTS OF ROMANCE.
Three Sisters to be Married To-Day In the
same Church by One Pastor.


Same Church by One Pastor.
New YORK, October 25-A triple we'd
ding will take place tomorrow evening IN
ST. Johns Methodist Episcopal church,
Williamshurgh. Three marriages have
all the elements of romance. Colonel j.
Kennedy Stout, of Spokane Falls, Washn.,
will wed Miss Ida Homan; Miss Carrie
Homan will be married to George Tidbale,
of 125 Clavmer street, and Miss Mollie
Homan will become the wife of Lloyd
Lonegan, of Bedford Avenue Little
Gertie Homan, the child-actress, has in
each instance figured as the unintentional
matchmaker. The three prospective
bridegrooms met the little wizard, and
loving her loved her elder counter
parts. The Colonel from Washington,
owner of the Spokane Spokesman, inter-
viewed her behind the scenes in the
Spokane Opera House. A correspondence
ensued, and when Gertie could not write
her sister Ida wrote for her. The cores
pondence led 10 an exchange OF photo
graphs, this to a declaration OF love ana
naturally TO an engagement by mail. Last
Sunday the Colonel was met at the de-
pot in Jersey City by Miss Ida, the other
sisters and their prospective husbands.
Miss Mollie, younger sister Oh MISS lda,
also became acquainted with newspaper
man, whom she is about to marry, through
unintentional ministrations of little Gertie,
who was a guest at the home Of Mr..
Lonegan, in Chicago, fourteen months ago.
Last, though not least, comes the engage
ment Of Mr. George Tidbale 10 Miss Car
rie Homan, the eldest of the unmarried
sisters. The couple met at the opening OF
the Arlington House, 143 Bedford avenue,
some seven months ago.

Mrs. Harrison had done to him so tenderly
ment
The President is bearing up remarkably
well 10 his deep afiiction. The traces Of
MS great sorrow are plain and unmistak-
aole, out apparently he has nerved himself
10 lace the at1iction with fortitude.
POSTMASTER GENERAL wANAMAKER
and Secretary Noble. who with the Attor-
ney General and Secretary Tracy, are the
only members Of the cabinet in the city,
also called this morning and each passed
about half an hour. Secretaries John W.
and Charles Foster viii reach the city to-
morrow.
ltwas the expressed wish Of the Presi-
dent to the members Of the cabinet who
called this morning that the affairs of
the Government be proceeded with as
usual and Gin Difference TO the request
the heads Of the several executive depart
ments were at their desks during the
greater part OF the day and the departments
remained open as usual. II is expected
that such members of the Cabinet as can
safely leave their official duties will ac-
company the funeral party 10 Indianapolis
IN the capacity Of honorary pall-Dearers.
The Presidents grandchildren were Civ
en- their breakfast after the other mem oerS
OF the family and then in charge of their
nurses, they were taken out for their usual
morning walk in the White House grounds.
The cemetery at Indianapolis is directly
north of the city about two or three miles
from the city limits. IL Is one OF the few
really beautiful spots about Indianapolis
whose location is too fiat 10 admit Of the
picturesque.
Postmaster General WanamalSer was one
OF the first members Of the Cabinet 20 ar
rive at the Executive mansion. He had q
half hours conversation with the PreSi-
dent aud found him stronger and braver
than he expected. His tear-stained face
showed evidences Of intense suffering. The
Postmaster General saw
TIE VENERABLE DIR. SCOTT,
Mrs Harrison's father, now in his 93d
year. He tearfally told his friends how he
spent the evening beside the bed of his
stricken child and finally retired, leaving
her peacefully sleeping. When he awoke
this morning they told him his dear one
had passed on before. He could hardly re-
alize, he said, that she should be taken and
he left, and he could not understand why il
should be so, but his faith in the wisdom OF
the Master sustained him and gave him
strength 10 bear this great sorrow.
Though no selection Of body bearers has
vet been made, 10 is probable that the
corpse will be borne by White House en-
ployes About one O'Clock Mr.. Russell
Harrison, Mr. Mckee and Mr. Halford
visited the establishment of Undertaken
Spears and selected a casket. The one
which was finally decided upon was made
Of Spanish red cedar, covered with fine
black broad cloth. This casket has cop
per metallic inner case, heremetically seal
ed. lined with cream tufted satin. The eX-
terror of the Casket has no ornamentation
whatever, except the oxidized bar handles,
which run its full length, and solid silver
oxidized plate bearing this inscription:

A member OF the advisory board stated
tonight that tho disorderly element In

of the Cabinet, came quickly 10 the minds
OF every one. She did all that official posi-
tion could suggest, but more than that her
tender thought and consideration for each
individual found manifestation in every

the sorrows in the families Of Secretary
Tracy and the stricken household Of Sec

The effect OF the death of Mrs. Harrison

at any other period, it would have been
similarly observed.
