THE anti. Cleveland democrats pre-
dictate the defeat of the national

they have no end of good democratic
company; in fact, there is not a sin gle
candidate whose name is prominently
mentioned for the democratic nomina-

OF 9 defeated party by sonic one or
more of the leading democratic jour.
malls of the country. In no one man
DO they recognize such 8 leader as

The Island of CUBA is reported
suffering intensely from protracted
drouth; for two months there have
been no showers and this unusual
lack of moisture, while most unfavor-
able to other crops, has given the
sugar growers one of the largest re
turns they have ever marketed
Nearly five hundret million pounds
have accumulated In the northern
warehouses and these accumulations
increase, as there is decided lock
between buyers and sellers. What
the result will be it is difficult e
foresee, but it does not seem possible
that prices can rule high, In the face
of such heavy accumulations.

THE aecelvsasaIP MuooLe.

There Is no one enterprise In South
west Texas whose management,
methods of doing business, honesty
or dishon esty. have ever been 40
fiercely assaulted and stoutly defended
as the San Antouio and Arkansas Pass
railway. When the road was placed
in the hands of the receivers the old
enemies of the road were partially
satisfied, and only partially. The
movements of the receivers have been
as severity criticised as ever the man.
agement of the old company was. For
wears the road has been the bone OF
contention In Southwest Texas, ana
hose who have been severest In de-
nunciation have been those Who nave
known least about it's matters. The
events of the past few days have pre-
cipitated an investigation into the
management of the affairs of
the road, as conducted ~
the receivers, that will not he
stayed until the bottom facts nave
been unearthed. While it is sincerity
to be regretted that the investi-
CATION has been sprung in the
way it has, 1t Is as sincerely
believed that the investigation Is
needed. Needed alike In tue inter-
asts of the owners of the road, In the
interests of it's disrupted manage.
ment. and in the interests OF the
public. That the investigation Will
be thorough there is no reason to
doubt. The feeling epgendered De-
tween the officers Of the road on &C.
count Of ordinations and recrlmina'
lions insures this; while at ne same
time the owners of the road are oe-
termiued to understand just exactiy
what has been done. with their prop
erty and it's revenue since IL was
nlaced i'm the hands OF the receivers.
When this inves tig alton is ended the
facts will be known, and the public
will make up their minds as to the
oui,. or Innocence of all the parties
involved. There is one phase OF
the question that is generai'y
remarked, and that is that the
senior receiver, who was the oid
general manager of the company mas
the backing of the reorgan zation
oo,mittse and the owners of the road
in the fight he is making against the
other receiver and the auditor. rms
wouId indicate that the road owners
the stock ho!ders and the bondhoiu-
ers, have the same confidence In MIN
that they did before he became re-
ceiver. There is al very dineren'
a,mosphere surrounding the charges
made against Receiver 1oakum ana
those made against him by his asso'
ciates and the difference is in his
favor. The character of the charges
are such that they cannot be set aslae
and if they could the representatives
of the owners who have demanded
this investigation and preferred tness
charges will not let the matter arof
until every last fact concerning this
receivership is laid bare, and th'
manner in which the court, the mas
ter. the receivers and the auditor
have discharged their trusts is fullI
revealed. Whatever the outcome a.
to individuals, the end OF 1t all VII
be better understanding of the dill
ficuIties that have surrounded TN
road since the organization, and
deeper interest in its future under tn
: h,nds of it's new owners, to whom !
will he turned over in the fall.

read that 'space at the Worlds Columbian
Exhibition has already been set aside for a dis
play of The weeds Of the whole country (the

making for d full occupation Of the allotment. -
To many persons this announcement may
suggest that the Exhibition authorities are
going crazy in their desire to have everything
exhibited, when they will descend so low as to
take in the very weeds. Mankind in general
is inclned to view a weed either as an enemy
to be got ril Of as quickly rs possible or as a
contemplate object unworthy Of notice. How
often Whel, we are interested in a wayside
plant, and, with . view to finding out whether
1t has any popular lame or is put to any use,
ask a IabOuret what 1t is called, DO we not re-
ceiYa the answer ut is only a weed, or u
Santa traz more commonly the answer. "It 5
some wiG bush or other? Aud this anti
palhy or contempt for weeds is, # couIse quite
natural. Civilized man wishes to grow such
plants rs viii serve his purposes, and hates
those which come in uubidden to steal the
soil food which he wants TO reserve entirely
for his f~avorites. When he finds those in
truders coming in be fights them, if he is wise,
without delay but this involves watch tul-
ness, and labour, and he does not love the
plants that give him 50 much trouble. Yet

GROVER WILL BE NOMINATED

By tho Yale Kent Club-Hlll's Sup. porters are Less Numerous but
 Make More Noise-A Defeated Can. :. dfdate to the Chicago Convention
 Will Nominate Htll-Mr. McQuade
 Will Second Cleveland-An Exciting
 Convention.
 The Yale Kent club will hold conven- tion Monday night to nominate demo- cratic candidate for president. The club has for some time had this matter in con- sideration, but it was thought best to profit by Senator Hills mistake of holding snap convention in New York and delayed it till now.
 Probably but three candidates will come before the convention-Mr.C Cleveland, Sen ator Hill and Governor Russell. The Cleveland men are in the majority, but the Hill men make the most noise. Governor Russell's candidacy will draw almost en- tirely from MT. Cleveland's supporters and consequently the Hill men will try to push his name forward.
 Because the supporters of Cleveland and Hill will be so nearly equally divided the convention is likely to be an exciting one and after the first ballot grand stampede will probably be made from favorite sons to either MT. Cleveland or Senator Hill The rules of the meeting require that { ajority vote shall determine the choice | of the candidates.
 The president of the Kent club, MT Steele, is 8 republican. He will call tht l meeting to order and then chairman o the democratic persuasion will be chosen l MT. J. E. England of Arkansas is the mar l likely to fill this position. He is gentle | man of considerable ability, has no decid ed preference for any candidate and is representative from the sssolid south.
 After the preliminary business Mir. W. T
 Henry of Texas will put MT. Cleveland
 name in nomination and MT. McQuade o
 this city will second it.
 l MT. J. F.. Cuff of Danbury, who was al
 unsuccessful candidate from the Fourt
 district of Connecticut to the coming con
 vention in Chicago, will nominate Senate

 land will second the nomination. MT. G

A FIGHT ON HAND
For NIiddl etOwn' Water Commis- sioners-Manufac Protest.

For NIiddl etOW Water COmmis.
 sioners-Manufactu Protest.
 MDDLErowN, May, 17.-The board of water commissioners of Middletown has a fight on hand with the manufacturers. Last fall the city was threatened with a water famine, the reservoirs were four ffths exhausted and greater economy of water was necessary or an increased sup ply. The commissioners adopted the first alternative and voted to put water meters in all the large factories. The saving of water thus effected was 3, ,500, 900 gallons per month and the rates were lower than in any Connecticut city except New Brit ain. The manufacturers objected, and w. & B. Douglass, pump manufacturers, the Middletown Plate company, the Schuyler Electric company and others found their rates largely increased. At 8 private meeting of manufacturers last night a for nal protest was formulated. The manu- lecturers say they will carry the question to the city council if the commissioners do not recede and if necessary will call city meeting. Public sentiment is divided, a preponderance being favorable to the com missioners.
