CLEVELAND AND THE PRESIDENCY.

The country is coming Cleveland
ward with rapidity that must be ex.
ceedingly gratifying to that gcntle'
man whether he really wants to be
nominated or not, and there is doubt
as to his desires in this respect. Every
state which has spoken except New
York has spoken for Cleveland, where
absolute instructions were not given
for any candidate Cleveland was
manifestly the favorite. Illinois even,
with General Palmer as a candidate ia
admitted to be Cleveland state with
Palmer as second choice. That
is what the resolution adopted
by the state convention means. 1t
says: "Should it be deemed exped-
lent to come to the west for a candi-
date to lead the Democratic hosts to
victory, we commend him." etc. 1t
is only in the event that Cleveland is
considered unavailable that Gen.
Palmer's name is to be presented to
the convention at Chicago. Henry
Watterson says it would be suicidal
to nominante Cleveland because it is
very doubtful as to his ability to carry
New York. The majority Of the
Democrats, however, seem to think
differently, and it is now evident that
he will be nominated and heroic eff
fort will be made to elect him without
New York. If the Hill faction will
do as they say they will vote for the
nominee, Cleveland is undoubtedly as
strong in New York as any other
Democrat. Outside of New York he
is evidently much the strongest man.
He is the only man who would stand
the ghost of = show to be elected
without New York. These premises
being correct the assertion that it
would be suicidal to nominate Cleve.

OF Chattanooga, Tenn, under date of
April II Mr.. Cleveland said 81 am

ton. In any event there will be no

He does not desire or expect the

A New Scale of Prices Agreed on
After Long Arbitration.
RICHMOND, Va, Aug. 1.-THE News
paper Publishers Association OF Richmond
and the Richmond Typographical Union
have been discussing for several months
past new scale Of prices. The union sub
mitted a scale, which the publishers declined
to adopt, and then submitted one of their
own. A committee of conference was ap-
pointed, and finally erbitrators were
selected. The conference agreed upon a
scale to operate for one year from July 1,
but there was still dissatisfaction among
some members of the union and further
conferences were held between the publish
ers and the union. The latter employed
counsel. but the publishers stood by the
agreement to take effect July l, the result
of the work of the arbitrators, and would
not listen to a reopening of the matter. A
strike was threatened, but it Is now said
that the union has abandoned its position.
This is the first time that all the daily pa
pers here have stood together. They have
organized their association as permanent

Ryan Meets the Claim by Asser ting
That There is Another Firm Of the
same Name-rhe Prosecution Claims
to Have Proven That Ryan Has the
Money.
ATLANTA, GA, Aug. 11.-Argument on
the contempt feature Of the Ryan case Is
now 10 progress before Auditor Peoples,
after six weeks consumed In taking evidence.
Ryan claimed to have paid to H. 8. Levy
and George Draper, stock brokers, large
Ru ms Of money which he had lost In specu-
lation. When asked to produce these men,
however, he said both had since died. In
order to prove that there was no truth in
this feature OF the defense ]. J. Spalding,
one Of the attorneys for the prosecution,
got the court to take a recess Of two weeks
20 allow him time TO go TO New York on q
detective trip.
BOTH MEN DEAD.
Mr.. Spalding found that both men were
dead and when the investigation was re-
sumed he introduced evidence showing that
they had died some time before the date on
which Mr.. Ryan claimed TO have paid them
the money referred &c. An argument forlthe
defense made by Ryan's attorney Is thas
there were more Fl. J. Levys and George
DrApers than the ones In New York This
point Ia one Of the most sensational features
Of the investigation. The prosecution claims
TO have established that Ryan is in possess
sion or custody OF the money demanded by
the receiver. Auditor Peoples will begin
work upon his report 20 the supreme court
without delay.

She is Charged with Numbering Her
Father and 5tep-mother.
FALL RIVER, MASS. Aug. 11.-Miss
Lizzie Borden is under arrest charged with
numbering her father and step-mother LAST
Thursday morning at their home on Second
street. She was brought into the Second
district court room about o'clock this
afternoon, presumably to give further evi-
dence at the inquest. Miss Borden
was accompanied by her sister and
Mrs. Brigham, as was the case
Yesterday. All the proceedings
were carried on behind closed doors When
Miss Lizzie returned from the third inquiry
she was physical and mental wreck. She
was conducted to the metron's room. The
inquest was adjourned about o'clock. Diss-
trict Attorney Knowlton and other officials
went TO the marshaPs private Office, where
they renamed closeted for two hours.
Shortly after o'clock City Marshal
Hilliard and District Attorney Knowlton
drove to the home of Andrew Jennings,
vino had been the family's attorney for
years. They returned at about o'clock
and went into the matron's room. where
Miss Borden was lying on a sofa. The
reading Of the warrant was
waived. The lady took the au-
nouncement with surprising calmness
Tho women who were with her were
much more visibly affected. The excite
ment on the street was very great when the
news Of the arrest became known, although
some hours previous it was generally under
stood that Miss Borden was soon to be made
q prisoner.
