Republicans.

NEW YORK, October 5.-Under the
auspices of the campaign committee of
Brooklyn a grand Republican mass meet
ing was held in the Clermont avenue
rink tonight. Arrangements ha d been
completed for the reception of the larg-
est crowd gathered at any political
meeting in Brooklyn this year and the
arrang ements were none too ample to
accommodate the great throng of Re-
publicans The principal speaker was
Hon. Charles A. Boutelle of Maine,
whose we'll known RepuDlicanism and
great oratorical ability won hffn an ova-
tion at Cooper Union last night. Mr..
Boutelle's speech of last evening con-
tanned one of the hits of the campaign. He
spoke in company with Senator Hiscock
to an immense audience of New York
Republicans, In the course of his re-
marks Mr. Boutelle said:
what Go you suppose Christopher
Columbus thinks OF the Democratic par
ty? Laughter That was a thought
that took possession of me today as |
looked upon the great preparations mado

Rate for Coal Transportation.

forty-four members were represented In
person or by proxy at the seventh annu-
al meeting of the Vessel Owners and
Captains National Association in the
Meionaon this morning. Chairman
Henry Lord of Bangor presented the an
nual report of the board of commission
ers. The document stated that 341 ves-
sells of registered tonnage of 1858
tons had renewed their pledges to the
association the past year and SO per cent
had paid their dues. Nearly so per cent
more money was collected during the
past year than during the year previous.
One line of barges had Joined the asso-
citation and had paid its dues since last
annual meeting and all the barge lines in
New York and Boston had agreed to join
the association if so per cent of the coal
carrying tonnage could be obtained.
Nearly all had contributed to the funds
of the association for defraying the ex-
penses of the abolition of the compul-
sorry pilotage in coastwise vessels.
President S. M. Thomas put before the
meeting, ON behalf of the pilotage COM
mittee, the present status in Congress of
Senator Frye's PDotage Bill,
abolishing pilotage on coastwise vessels
going to southern ports and granting to
captains and mates of schooners the
right to pilot their own vessels if found
competent after examination by local
United States inspectors.

The Fight Against Compulsory Piiotage
Last years committee was reappointed,
with full power to act for the association
in securing the desired result. Presi-
dent Thomas urged upon the association
the necessity of. combination on coal
freight rates. 1t was the sense of the
meeting that a rate of so cents a ton free
from trimming be established, provided
65 per cent of all the coal carrying ton
mage could be secured to carry it into eff
feet. A committee, consisting of the
new board of commissioners, was APP
pointed to confer with all coal carrying
barges and railroad corporations for the
purpose of securing their cooperation
in fixing this rate. Meetings will be
called in the various tonnage centres
within ten days, to hasten the securing
of the required IS per cent.

TROUBLE IN VENEZUELA.
Disquieting News Received by the State
Department.

WASHINGTON, October 5.-It was ru-
mored at the State Department this ,af-
ternoon that news had been received
from Venezuela to the effect that the
disturbances, which had quieted down
there, have again broken out. The
state of affairs in that country is so Sc
rious as to require continuance on the
coast of Admiral Walkers fleet. The
news received indicates sudden change
in the situation, as a cablegram received
yesterday from Admiral Walker stated
that everything was quiet.
