AT WARRINGTON.
The President Calm-Departm ri m Cnt
Employees Shaking.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The President
gave up the election when he heard from
Illinois Tuesday night, remarking: "If
illinois has gone Democratic that settles
it," and he requested that no further re-
turns be sent to him. Mr.. Tibbott, his
stenographer, at 10 O'Clock yesterday
morning was still figuring upon some
possible combination which might snatch
victory from defeat, but with very indif-
ferent success even in his own mind.
The President rose at the usual hour,
glanced oyer some returns which had
been prepared for him, and then calmly
devoted himself to executive business,
saying nothing.
Attorney General Miller and Secretary
J. w. Foster are the only two members
of .hecabinet in the city, though Secre-
tary Charles Foster, Of the Treasury,
will probably be at the department to
day. He predicted that Harrison would
carry every Northern State except Nc
vada.
Attorney General Miller was some
what prepared for the defeat by the
forecast Of doubt which lie brought back
with him from his hasty visit to Indi'
ana. Ex Secretary Blaine declines to be
interviewed on the result and has had
the telephone removed from his residence
to avoid the annoyance of perpetual
calls.
The feeling of depression and unrest
which prevades all the departments can
not be exaggerated. Those clerks who
refrained from going home to vote con
gratulate themselves on their forbear
ance, while the friends of those who ac
lively participated in the election hopt
that this thing may not be charged
against them"
Agoodly number of department clerks
sheltered under the civil service rule, sur
vived four years of Democratic admins
tration under Cleveland four years age
and trust by attention to business tt
merit the continuance of fayors previ
ously bestowed. But heads of division!
recognize that after the fourth of mex
March their positions (Which do not fal
under the civil service rules) will proba
. bly, be required for Officials in politica
harmony with the new chiefs of the ex
ecutive departments.
The greatest alarm is felt by the un
classified employees Of the bureau of en-
, craving and printing and the govern
. ment printing Office, many thousands il
; number, who are paid by the day an
. hold on only from month to month
; They feel that nine-tenths Of their nun
ber are probably destined to be displace
d, by new employees as soon as the nes
b. government printer and chief of the br
, reau of engraving and printing are ar
/, pointed. and especially as both the pres
: ent officers, General Palmer, public prir
ter, and Mr.. Meredith, the chief of til
bureau ofengraving and printing, wer
t appointed from the great State OF l
f. linois, which has gone over TO the Dtmc
f Gratis. Their lot is not a happy one.

BLOODY POLITICAL. ROW.
Mitchell County Has a Small war
Oh Tuesday.

OH Tuesday.
Mitchell Bird Of Big Rock Creek town
ship. Mitchell county, who is here at
tending the United States court, tells
THE CITIZEN Of bloody and fatal bat
tie that occurred at the voting place Of
his township on election day.
The trouble started when man named
Brown, Republican, and Wise, Demo-
crat, got into fight over politics. The
friends of both men paired off and a
pitched battle followed. Rocks, clubs,
knives and pistols figured as weapons,
and men went down before them like
chaff before the wind. The battle con-
tinued several minutes. The principal
combatants were Lewis and Monroe Gar
land, Brownlow and Elisha Stanley,
Clingman Harrell and two sons and a
man named Hill.
Sheriff Robert Bradshaw was present
when the riot was precipitated and
fought manfully to suppress to trouble,
but without effect. When he came out
of the fight he was bloody from head to
foot.
When the smoke of battle cleared away
it was found that there were fifteen men
lying on the ground wounded, six oi
them being so seriously hurt as to make
their death almost inevitable. Brown
low Stanley had stabbed Monroe Gar
land in the abdomen, and had himsel
been fatally wounded. Monroe Garland
was dying when Mr.. Bird left. Just at
ter Mr.. Birds departure, and while HI
was yet in hearing, there was great FIR
ing of pistols, and he believes the trouble
broke out afresh, but did not 60 back tt
| learn the results.

WILL NOT CHANGE.
1t Will Always be the Same Re.
publican Party.

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-The Tribune says:
"The Republicans have been defeated in
the National contest, but they have
made the best fight they knew how.
They have done nothing which they are
ashamed of. They have left nothing
undone which could be done honorably.
Were they to fight the battle over they
would adopt neither new policies nor
new methods. The Republicans suffered,
as they have done for the last sixteen
years, by the suppression of the votes OF
halt million southern members OF the
party and the loss of the electoral votes
of four states to which their candidates
are entitled. They suffered from the
malignity of the drys [prohibitionistsl
and by unprincipled fusion agreements
made west of the Mississippi, which
testified both to the dishonesty and the
utter lack of principle Of the Democrats
and the besotted ignorance of the Re
publican Populists, the last named o
whom could not see that a vote TO
Weaver was one for Cleveland"

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O.-It has been
customary in Washington to celebrate
the result of the Presidential election by
firing a cannon from the White House
lot. Bearing in mind however, the re-
cent domestic bereavement sustained by
the President, General Scho6eld, Acting
Secretary of War, even before the result
was foreshadowed addressed the fol-
lowing communication to the chief Of
police:
1T is the desire of the acting secretary
of war that what ever may be the result
of the approaching election no firing of
guns or other demonstration of rejoicing
be made in the vicinity Of the Executive
mansion. 1t is suggested that Capital
Hill, will under the circumstances, be an
appropriate place for the victorious
party to celebrate. Garfield Park, on
CapitoliHill, is the most available ground
for the battery"

partment today. He declined to discuss
the turn of the tide in political affairs
He left for New York this afternoon to
attend the LAUGH of the cruiser Cincin

MR.. CLEVELAND'S MISGIVINGS.

Mr.. Cleveland, in his letter to James
II. Bible, of Chattanooga. says II
have frequent misgivings as to the wis
dom of again putting me in nomination.
The letter was written before the Co
hoes election last week. At Cohoes
GArside was the Hill candidate for may
or. and German and Cleveland candi-
date. The contest had been awaited
with considerable anxiety bv the New
York Democracy. and had very nearly
created split in the ranks of the Demo-
Gratis in the legislature. The Garside
people had the judges-technically
called the window " by ward poll
ticians. while the Cleveland faction hac
the police and took the precaution to
swear in hundred extras. -
The election was prolonged fight be-
tween the two Democratic factions the
police, or Cleveland men, bringing it to
close by stealing the ballot boxes,
which they still hold. in several of the
precincts. and throwing the officers of
election bodily out of the window at
another. The Republican candidate for
mayor was elected by a clear majority
in the precincts where there was no disor-
der. and as there is an acknowle lodged Re-
publican majority in those where the
boxes were stolen by the Cleveland po-
lice, the Republican g election is conced-
ed. AS Mr.. Cleveland has heretofore
posed as the champion of honest ballot,
it is probable that. had he written his
letter to Mr.. Bible after the Cohoes cleo
ton, he would have expressed his mis-
givings in stronger terms.
Bat another warning was given on tho
same day. and in different direction.
which ought to emphasize his mIsgiv-
ings. Jersey City, instead of giving a
Democratic majority of several
thousand, which, owing to the fla
CANT corruption that had prevailed
there, and had been given for a number
of years, elected the Republican
mayor by three thousand maiority-su
ficient to wipe out the somewhat uncer-
tain majority which the Democrats have
claimed in New Jersey. Other cities did
likewise. In other portions of New
York besides Cohoes, the Republicans
made phenomenal gains SO that the out
look for the Democracy in States where
they must win to achieve national vic
tory, is not so reassuring as to encourage
a feeling of eagerness for the nomina-
tion.-Americdn.

Question No. So. What has been the
direct benefit to the american farmer bg
the placing Of The duty on eggs? What
tcould be the result if the duty ,cds abol-
ished2
In 1890 we imported II 962 1852 dozen
eggs. valued at 81 5S4 0S9: III 1891 we
imported 263 375 dozen eggs valued at
1858 497. The difference between the
amounts imported in those two years
1863 377 dozen-measures the larger
market for eggs which has been fur.
nished to the American farmer and the
difference between the values of the
eggs imported in these two years-S1,-
$50 592-measures roughly the value
of that market TO him. The direct re-
suit of the Mckinley duty on eggs has
thus been to put 81 $50 592 more into the
pocket of the farmer than he received
the preceding year. If the duty we've
abolished. by that sum at least would he
be the loser. American Economist.
