One London Opinion.

LONDON, June 23.-The Pail Mall
Gazette, commenting upon the nomina-
tion Of Mr.. Grover Cleveland by the
American National Democratic Conven-
ton, says it is satisfactory sequel to
the nomination of Mr.. Harrison by the
Republicans. In both cases, the pro-
fessional POLITICIANS and wire pullers
were defeated. The good sense and
good faith of the American electors
caused the best men to be chosen.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 23.-There
are mighty few ant-Cleveland Demo
Gratis IN Washington tonight, and there
would be none but for the fact that
some people think they owe
il to their dignity and rep
utasion for ante-conVention sincerity
to show a certain amount OF reluctance
to tackle a diet OF crow on which the
wisest and best Of politicians have occa-
sionally to subsist. Tomorrow all Dem
ocrats will be Cleveland Democrats be-
cause il they are too stubborn to yield
Of their own motion they are
bound to be carried away by the strong
wave OF enthusiasm for Cleveland and
Stevenson which is rising with increas
ing force and volume. 1t Is hardly
necessary to say that Senator Kenna
was entirely satisfied with the action Of
the Chicago Convention.
The Senate has favored the nomina-
ton OF Cleveland above that OF any
other man mentioned from the time the
discussion began as to who should be
the standard bearer Of the party this
fall.
He Is one Of a very few Democratic
Senator who have held this view, and
he is naturally grstiied that his judg-
ment has been indicated by the action
OF the Chicago convention.
Speaking Of the platform to-day, SEN
ator Kenna said he thought it was a
strong one throughout; there was no
fault to be found with the tariff plank.
There was really little difference be-
tween the plank reported by the major
ity Of the Committee on Resolutions and
the one adopted.
The latter simply embodied the gen.
eral Interpretation Of the position Of the
party on the question as il had been
stated for years. The Senator also
thought the silver plank was satiSfac-
tory and would be acceptable to all
Democrats.
Senator Faulkner said no Democrat
need doubt Of success this fall with
Cleveland at the head Of the ticket.
There should be no fear Of his ability
to carry New York.

that State were strong and loyal Demo-
Gratis, and they could be relied on to
give him enthusiastic support.
The Senator thought the platform an
altogether admirable one, strong, clear
and emphatic in stating the position of
the party on the tariff, the silver and in
opposition to the force bill.
Democrats all over the country were
as much interested as the South on the
last question, for If the Republicans had
the chance Of putting force bill into
operation il would be OF general appli-
cation and would take the control of
elections out of the hands Of Northern
as well as Southern States.
Representative Pendleton, one Of the
most enthusiastic Cleveland men in the
House said: "I think it is the strong
est nomination that could have been
made. It is a nomination which CON-
pels the support OF the machine, how
ever much it may not like il.

ponds that it should support the regular

Four Hundred and Fifty-Three Days Out
From Antwerp-A Mutinous Crew and
Series Of Disasters.

There are few sehoolboys or even chill
dren of a larger growth who have not
perused and reperused FenimOre CoOper's
great nautical story "Homeward Bound"
The series of disasters that befell the Mon
tauk and the adventures of her skipper and
crew are closely paralleled by the story OF
the British ship Knight Commander, which
arrived here ut 3 o'clock yesterday morning.
II any reader OF THE CALL desires TO see
the vessel which has been 453 days, or over
@ year, on the voyage from Antwerp, he or
she must bear one little thing in mind. that
tie Knight Commander was ship" when
starting out, but is ship no longer. That
is TO say. the vessel was full-rgged when
leaving Antwerp, but Is only bark now.
The cause of the change Is the very essence
OF the story.
When CALL reporter boarded the knight
Commander off Alcatraz Island there was
nothing to Indicate that the vessel had been
through as long and trying an ordeal. A
little paint on the hull would be an i'm
prOyement, but on deck and below deck
everything was found in apple-pie order.

the ship at Montevideo. gave a thrilling ac-
count Of the adventures of the crew at Port

States. Superintendent Fosd who has charge
of all the mailing departments, announced
Yesterday that the annual examination oil
postal clerks was completed, and that w. f.
Kelly of the newspaper division had not
only surpassed all his local competitors, but
that COMPARISONS with records from other
cities showed that he is the champion dis
trlbutor in this country.
Last week George Coon was at the head
of the list, by having cased 1895 cards out OF
1897 in % minutes. There was much re-
joiciBg in the letter department while the
handlers Of the newspapers felt correspond
ingly gloomy.
Kelly's record is the casing of 14lS cards
out of 141S in p minutes, without single
error. a feat which has never before been
accomplished.
The champion was appointed 10 his pres
ent position from the civil service list IN
1887, and is native OF Rhode Island.
When tine news of kelly's achievement
and the consequent jay of his superOrs and
comrades reached the railway mail clerks
Office there was lot OF Indignation.
The idea 10 call him the champion dis
tributor is slly," said one niInbe hero Of
many railroad episodes, and I'VE have men
that can beat him all hollow" was the
sentiment of two or three others.
All of them, however, agreed that Kelly
is the best "nsde" man they had ever
that the travelling or railway mail-dis-
tributOrs have much more difficult work TO
do and do it more rapidly than those en-
ployed in pOSt0fticeS.
The case examinations, which are a new
Institution IN the home offices, have for
years been annually held in the railway
mail service. Last year the general super
intendent of that branch issued an order
which said that a gold medal would be
given to the man who made the best ease
examination during the ear ending Decem-
Der 81. Alter the contest closed 1t was
found that J. f. Phelps, clerk class 3.
Sedalia and Denison X. 7. o., Seventh Divi-
sion, had won the medal by distributing cor
rectlY 1896 per cent Of 32,l9j cards,
handling 2S cards per minute. Tie official
bulletin which announced tie prize winner
called his performances magnificent record,
the best ever made, and cOmpllmenled Mr..
Phelps very highly.
The difference between the work Mr..
Kelly, the local champion, did and that o f
the railway mail services medal-bearer is
great, there being By far greater number of

on the memory Of a clerk in pOstotilce this
