To Fire the Barges.

At 40 p. m. the attempt to fire the
barges by the use of burning oil on the
surface of the river was abandoned as
useless and the men at the pump-house
confined their attention to firing the two
cannon and throwing dynamite bombs,
but the bombs all fell wide of the mark.
Occasionally shots were fired by work
men stationed behind pieces on the op.
posite side of the river An hour later
a desperate attempt was made to burr
the Pinkerton men on the barges. Sew
eral barrels of oil were used as well al
several hundred feet of fire hose in tht

THE Hill democrats VINO are de-
claring that cleveland went into
Rhode Island and made speeches for
the democrats, and the republicans
carried the state without struggle"
are employing rhetoric at the expense
of truth. That was one of the most
bitter political campaigns ever fought
in that state; every available voter
was brought to the polls and the full
strength of both parties was tested to
its last man. The result has certainly
been very gratifying to the republic
cans and they earned the victory that
they achieved, but the man who
says 1t was won without q struggle is
simply talking through his hat.
