ing republicans to influence Gov.
Fletcher to approve the award. While
the governor was being influence at
jefferson, Mckay and the Others
were at st. Louis negotiating a contract
with the Hon. Thomas Allen for the
transfer of their bid to him rs soon as
the award should be approved. Well,
the governor passed through the excru-
ciating process, the torturing expert
ence of being Influenced, and with
appreciative gratitude proceeded at
once to make Mr.. Hume and those other
leading republicans" who had sus-
tanned him SO vali-ptly while on the
rack of uncertainty and in the sweat
box of doubt, radiant with well-earned
happiness by attaching his approving
signature to the award. Then followed
in quick succession the transfer by
Mckay and others" of their bid to Mr..
Allen under a contract by which they
cleared the snug little sum of 1875, 900.
Gov. Fletcher saw the necessity of
giving some explanation of his remark
able conduct, and here is what he said:
''D;nsmoie & Co, and Fremont have
no confidence in, but am satisfied that
speculation is their object and not
building the road. Mckay, Vogel,
Read & Co. have, / believe, the means
of building the road. Another con-
of it to men who belong to the pro-
gressivc party of the state and are in
sympathy with and have the sympa thy
of the capital of the country" ~
That is all his excellency deignedS
vouchsafe. 1t were far better if he IL II
said nothing at all.
Mr.. Chairman, with all the facts 1
have detailed here Maj. Warner is IA
rniliar. They are spread in extenso on
the public records of the state And
yet the major asserts that there was no
fraud or corruption in all this. And
yet again he stands forth, not to con-
denim, nor even to apologize for nor to
excuse, but to defend and applaud all
this monstrous history. Perhaps he
justifies the theft, as Fletcher did, be-
cause the beneficiaries Of 1t belonged
to the progressive party of the state
The progressive party" with a new
Missouri-a wide-open Missouri" is the
thing Maj. Warner is clanoring for. If
the progressive Missouri" Maj War
ner now foreshadows is to be repeti-
ton of the progressive Missouri Gov
Fletcher represented and Mai. Warner
eulogiZes, then may the good angels
shelter us under their protecting wings
from the devastating pestilcnce of that
dark day.
Mr. Chairman, time forbids that /
SHOULD continue the exposition of this
particular phase of Missouri radicalism.

Trmth Ahnnt Thnt OannI

The truth has been repeatedly stated, and
never denied, about the animus back of
this canal project. Leigh Hunt, owner Of
the Post-InteIligencer, and a number Of his
business and political associates, own the
townsite of Kirkland, upon Lake Washing
ton and also own large bodies of land con-
tiguOus to the proposed artificial harbor.
Their purpose is to boom these holdings at
the expense of the general government and
the people of Washington. No one at
tempts to deny these facts. When they
are advanced only one counter cry is heard
-"you are lighting project that proposes
to turn loose millions Of dollars in Wash
ington; you are disloyal to your state.'
Men and brethren, if we have reached that
point where loyalty is to be measured by
greed and gOuging methods, in the name Of
consistency let us demand S5000O,000 in
stead of $5O0O,OO0 and be ten times as loyal
as the present standard proposes.-SpO

RESTORED HER SIGHT.
Hl.. Dolllver,. Remarl.aDIe ReoO

Miss Delivers Remarkable HecOY.
cry From Blindness.
Miss Dolliver, sister of Congressman
Doniver, was discharged from the New
York Opthalmio hospital, at Twenty-third
street and Third avenue, few days ago,
having experienced a somewhat remarka-
bic restoration to sight, after total blind
ness which had affected one of her eyes for
nearly year 1t is said that only one
similar instance is recorded in medical an
mails, and that was the case Of Governor Lu-
cius Robinson, of this state, who was af-
tected in the same way, and who was sue
cessfully treated in the same institution.
Miss DolliYer about year ago was open
ing bottle of ginger ale, the cork from
which flew out and struck her in the left
eye, causing apparent slight injury, but
considerable pain, She was treated by To-
cal Oculists, and it was supposed she had
she found that her left eye was wholly be-
Teft of sight.
After treatment by oculists in Washing
ton without success she was brought to
this city, where she was examined by spe-
cialists, and it was found that a rupture
and subsequent detachment of the retina
of the eye had taken place.
Miss DOlliVer was kept in a recumbent
position in a dark room for ten weeks and
finally the retina foated back and once
more attached itself to the chOrOid. While
Miss Delivers sight Is still slightly inn
paired, it will probably regain its normal
strength in time. The fact Of the reattach-
ment of the retina after so long period of
separation makes the case one of the most
notable in the history of optical surgery

MEETING WITH SUCCESS.
Prof. Seward's Scientific Work AP.
Preciated in Olympia.

pEeCAAAe0 IN Olymphas
The celebrated scientific optician, Prof.
Seward, of New York city, who has been
at the Olympia hotel for the past ten days,
is meeting with his usual success, the most
difficult cases always come first and
already a large number of prominent
ladies and gentlemen have called and had
superior glasses adjusted by the professor.
Several Of these citizens of Olympia had
tried in this and other cities on the coast
to have glasses adjusted but without sue
cess. There are no cases of defective vision
too difficult for Prof. Seward to correct.
The professor stands at the top of his pro-
fessiOn with but few equals and no super
ior, consequently the people of this city
should realize that this is an opportunity
of life time and should take advantage
of it before it is too late. Those who de-
sire to consult the professor should call at
once at the Olympia hotel between the
hours of 10 am. and pm. No charge is
made for consultation.

CHICAGO. June s19.-Rhe anti-Cleveland
faction of the Indiana delegation will hold
another caucus Monday morning to decide
whether to present Gray's name or not.
Senator Voorhees, says that it is probable
that Gray's name viii be presented. There
will be meeting of the whole delegation
Monday afternoon, when the delegation
will be polled on Presidential prefer
ences.
At the meeting of the delegation yester-
day for the purpose of organization it was
demonstrated that the Gray men were IN
the ascendency. The eighteen Gray men
pulled together and captured the full or
ganHation. voorhees, was elected chair
man Of the delegation. The twelve dele
gates who propose TO vote for Cleveland on
the first ballot voted solidly against
the Gray ticket. The Gray men endeavored
to secure the enforcement of the unit rule
on Presidential preference, but there be-
ing strong objections the matter was
dropped. The fight to unite the delega-
ton on Gray VIII occur at the meeting to-
morrow. Whether the effort succeeds or
fails il was distinctly decided that Senator
Voorhees, is to present Gray's name to the
convention, and little hope is felt therefore
that the split in the delegation can be
healed

ssrased whether or not Mr.. cleveland

strated whether or not Mr.. cleveland
was TO be nominated.
This is Senator Germans own posi-
tion He said to-day: why do you
persist in regarding me as candidate.
] am not a candidate. Maryland IS for
Cleveland. It has no other name TO
bring before the convention. All this
talk about me is misleading and I'M
authorized"
w. c. Whitney, Cleveland's shrewest
manager, it is stated was sent TO Chlca-
90 to smooth over over the acerbitieS OF
the campaign as far as il could be done.
He is OF course the Cleveland leader and
the Cleveland caucuses are held chiefly
in his rooms at the Richelieu, but he IS
also frequently to be seen in conference
with Croker, Murphy and the other
Tammany leaders. The old politicians
on the ground give him credit for the
complete change OF tone by Tammany
so palpable in the last "a hours lie
himself is very reticent.
"You can say that Cleveland Will De
nominated on the first ballot, and
should fancy that ought to be state
ment enough, "he said. Il know nothing
about the councils or purposes OF Tam
many; but l do know that it is Demo-
cratic organization and that 1t Is en-
titled to fair and patient hearing
Nothing can be lost by courtesy.
The trade which it is said was liked
up with Tammany by Mr. Whitney and
the Cleveland managers simply looked
to the suppression of anti-conyentlon
debate. The Hin delegation will, it is
said, be seated without serious question,
without indeed more than formal
protest on the part OF the
anti-snappers and in the mean
tine TammauY will let the favorite
sons alone to look after themselves in
their various States as best they can.
The matter was in some way fixed up at
an early hour this morning and since
then the inevitable Tammany apostle,
which was one of the Constant features
In all the different headquarters, has
kept the Sabbath in d most decorous
fashion.

Mr.. whitney on the situation.

CHICAGO, June 1S.-Ex-Secretary Whit
nev had some novel ideas on the situation.
He said: "The OppotitiOn to Mr.. Cleveland
among the New York delegates is not OPP
position TO Cleveland so much as it is to
the independent vote that follows Cleve-
land, and what you might call mugwump
methods in politics. The truth IS we
have our regular army and lot
ofnew recruits that have joined US on recent
issues, and the regulars distrust the re-
cruits, and the recruits don't much like the
regulars, and Mr.. Cleveland is between the
lines and gets banged at from both sides.
We must have the new recruits in order TO
win Where I think injustice is done is IN
statements identifying MIR. Cleveland with
Mugwump methods, as though Mr.. Cleve-
land was not a good party man himself"
Mr.. Whitney declared that the vote OF
the State did not show any bitterness to-
ward Cleveland, and cited figures to show
that Cleveland got more votes in 1854 than
in 1882, more iD.1SSS than IN 1884 and more
ia 1855 also than the total for the Demo
cratic candidates for Congress where there
were contests. According to Mr.. Whitney
Hill got less votesthan Cleveland, Cook or
Jones when on the ticket with either.
