President Harrison Alleged

New YORK, March Mayor
William r. Grace has written today a
long letter to prominent Southern DEM
ocrats, in which he gives resume of
the reasons which have, in his opinion
led to the Demo cratic revolt in this
state, in which he says:
''If did not feel that it was an abso'
lutte necessity for the success of the
Democratic party to appease the feeling
which exists in this state against the
machine by reaching fair compromise
in Chicago, do not think | would take
upon myself the burden of labor which
/ have already assumed; but, as a mat
ter of patriotic duty to the state, and as
a matter of salvation for the party next
fall, l think it will be easy to
show that our work will be productive
of immense good. One thing l can as
sure you, that the men vino will repre-
sent the state Democracy at Chicago
will act with prudence and good judy
ment for the interest of the Democratic
party and not for the interest of any
individual. Of this you may be assured,
and it is for this reason that L hope for
your aid in securing US admission to the
convention as delegates.
1t is uncomfortable to me that the
South should for moment think Of set
ting aside Cleveland, who is the only
man in our time who has made the
Democratic party respected by the really
conservative elements of the North, and
who has been the means of rallying
within the Democratic ranks some of
the most intelligent aud most patriotic
members of every community in the
Northern states.''

for | know that England does not desire
the seals exterminated, whatever the

The question of mare clausum, or sea
limit, is the one that should be settled
definitely. Now the mare clausum for
the United States is that portion OF the
sea within fourteen miles from the

shoot that far. Formerly it was only
three miles, but as bigger guns have

Salmon has written letter which is

under, that he finds catching seals with

MKINLEY DEFEATED.
Foraker Men Take a Shot at the
Governor,

COLUMBUS, O., March 26.-The defeat
of Gov. Mckinley in the election of
temporary chairman of the state con-
vention last night was the most auda-
!cious and vindictive action of the long
continued Foraker-S Sherman fight. The
Foraker men evidently deliberately
planned to humilate thes governor for
the part he took in the senatorial fight,
and, it is said, pledged themselves to
support him in order to induce him to be
a candidate for the craftsmanship.
The Sherman men at first in
tended to make Speaker Laylin
chairman, but in the interest of
harmony consulted the Foraker men,
bers. Finding them favorable to the
governor, they suggested biz instead of
Mr.. Laylin. And then they were dis
mayed to see the governor defeated by
Representative Charles j. Griffin, a
Foraker leader, whose name was sprung
at the last minute. 1t il predicted that
the Sherman men. who will probably be
in control of the Cleveland convention,
will not permit Mr.. Griffin to preside.

Chief Signal Officer Accused of
Breach of Discipline.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-An officer
of the army of high rank is authority for
the statement that court martial may
be ordered within the next few days for
the trial of Gen. A. w. Greedy, chief
signal officer of the army, for viola
ton of the general orders of the war
department.. Mr.. Greely's offense con-
sists in having addressed the secretary
of war and members of the CON-
mittee on appropriations in opposi-
ton to placing the new military
bureau of information under the
immediate jurisdiction and control of
the adjutant generals office. Adjt. Gen.
Kelton has brought Ger. Greely's
breach of discipline to the attention of
the department in letter, which COM
ments severely upon the violation of
general orders. In his letter Gen. Kel-
ton says Gen. Greely's action in ad-
dressing members of congress in order
to bring about what he had failed to
secure from the secretary of war
amounts to threat of characterization,
and demands severe rebuke, if not
court martial. Such a recommendation
as this is usually sufficient at least for
a court of inquiry, and Gen. Greely's
friends and defenders are somewhat un-
easy at the outlook.
