will show. 1t is distributed among
working men and is on the subject OF
Mr.. CLEvELAND's labor record. Here
is lie No. 1.
Cleveland vetoed the bill establishing
Department of Labor.
The bill became law in 1883 and
GROVER CLEVELAND signed it.
Here is lie No. 2:
Cleveland vetoed the tenement-house
cigar bill, forbidding the manufacture OF
cigars in tenement-houses.
GROVER CLEVELAND signed this bill
on March 81, 1888. The tenement house
employers brought it before the Su-
preme Court and it was declared, be-
cause of some errors, unconstitutional.
The defects were remedied, it was again
passed and again signed by GROVER
CLEVELAND.
Here are lies Nos. and 4:
Cleveland vetoed the bill requiring all
the State printing TO be done by union
workingmen.
Cleveland vetoed the bill making ten
hours a legal days work for all street car
employees.
There never were any such bills.
Here is lie No. 5.
Cleveland vetoed the bill abolishing con-
tract child-labor in the charitable and re-
formatory institutions of the State.
GROVER CLEVELAND signed the bill
and it is now law of New York.
Here is lie No. 6:
Cleveland vetoed the bill abolishing
convict labor in prisons, although Inls
proposition when submitted to the popular
vote OF the people was carried by major
ity of 10000.
Mr.. CLEVELAND forced Republican
Legislature to recall bill which only
abolished convict labor in State prisons,
leaving the system in force in the peni-
tentlarles, and compelled them to pass
a bill, which he at once signed, abol-
ishing contract labor in every institu-
tion-State, county and municipal.
And so might we go on through the
whole long list of absolute and DELHI
crate falsehoods.
There never was bill In the interest
of labor that came before GROVER
CLEVELAND either as Governor OF New
York or President of the United States
that he did not promptly sign.

LONDON, November 2.-The trial OF the
suit for damages for SANDER Drougnt py
Mrs. Leader, wife OF Lieutenant Leaue.,
against Mrs. James Gibbons Smytn. Wiie

woman. The plaintiff had been accused OF
stealing and pawning diamond oroocn De-

suit.
To-day Mrs. Leader again took the stand
and Sir Edward Clark resumed the cross
examination. Sir Edward piled his ques-

For two hours she underwent her ordeai

response to a question as TO whether MRS;

the trouble. she replied: "She loaned me
a paste necklace once, not diamond one.
Sir Edward tried TO show that the ladies'

possible she knew all about mine, as sue

srop rms soRr OF CAMPAIGN.

STOP THIS SORT Or CANF ALUM
The scene enacted In the dining room
OF the Mcclure House last evening is a
sad commentary on nineteenth century
political methods particularly as they
are employed by the Republican leaders
in this city.
The mother of the present candidate
FOR Sheriff Mr.. ALBERT FRANzHEIM,
has been so affected by the infamous
and indecent reflections upon her son
in the Intelligencer that it is not mat
ter for wonder that she has been physi-
cally Frustrated, and that when Mr..
HIATT, the editor of the Intelli9encer,
approached the table at which she was
seated after leaving that at which
the Elkins-DawsOn ct al dinner
was in progress the lady's nervous
system gave way and she had
to be removed from the room. Her
sons, who afterWard heard Of it, misun-
derstood the situation and for a while
Mr.. HART was in imminent danger of
receiving very serious personal injury.
The details Of the affair will be found
in our local columns this morning.
The blame that attaches to Mr.. HART
is that he has allowed to be published
in the Intelligeacsr these most infam-
Gus and false attacks upon the Demo-
cratic candidate for Sheriff.
Mr.. CHARLES W. FRANZHEIM has per-
sonally made a thorough and detailed
investigative into the charges brought
in the Intelioencer against his brother.
He has personally examined every item,
and in this mornings REGIssER he
makes full statement Of the
result Of mis- investigation,
which not only fully exonerates his
brother but does honor to Mr.. ALBERT
FRANzHEIM's character and kindness of
heart.
This attempt Of these ghouls to black
en- the character Of the Democratic can
didate for Sheriff is as base and foul a
piece Of political work as ever was
done.

News OF the Boats and Boatmen Along

Pilot Tony Meldahl, of the Hudson,
is in Pittsburg. He will return to Gin
cinnati in skiff, taking observations
of the river as he proceeds. Mr.. Mel
dahl is one of our best Cincinnati packet
pilots.
A great many people have accepted
the invitation of Capt. Mack Gamble TO
inspect the Sunshine, which is lying at
the wharf ready to leave as soon as
there Is sufficient water in the river.
All expressed themselves as well
pleased.
The towboat Nellie Speer, while be-
ing placed in readiness at Cairo for a
trip down the Mississippi, met with a
serious accident in having her boilers
burned. The fireman, in starting his
fires, failed to notice that there was no
water in her boilers, and as conse-
quence her boilers were ruined, entail
ing a loss of $4,000.
Capt. E. p. Chancellor, Of Parkers-
burg, w. Va, still has q hankering
after the river, and no doubt he will
have another boat some of these days.
Like good many other steamboatmen,
he is not satisfied to remain. on shore.

Indianapolis says Attorney General w. H.
H. Miller will retire from the Cabinet soon
after the election, whether Harrison is re-
elected or not. He has formed law part
nership in this city, his former home, and
will move back here about the first Of jan
uary. The friends Of the Attorney Gen
eral here say that official life has never
been congenial to him; furthermore, he
feels that his law practice here will be
much more lucrative than the official posi-
ton. Mrs. Miller, too, it is said, has never
been content with Washington life.

ANN ARBoR. MICH, November 2.-Re-
cent attempts TO swing the important col
leges and universities into line on political
action have aroused much interest here.
The students are actively participating in
the campaign. Work at the Republican
and Democratic headquarters is in full
blast and political meetings are frequent.
Students living even as far as Iowa will
return home to vote, the expenses in most
cases being borne by State committees.
No university classes will meet on election
day and recitations will be moreor less dis
turbed for two or three days preceding and
following the great event.

The Big steamer W. b. GIlcher Wrecked
No findings of Her Grew of TWENTY-FIVE

The Big steamer w. ii. Gilcher wrecked
No findings of Fer Crew of Twenty two
Men.
CHICAGO, Novembes 2.-Reports reached
bert last night that large white steamer
had been wrecked of Manitou Island. Ii is
believed that the vessel was the w. n.
Gilcher. She passed the straits the after
noon of the big storm on the lake, bound
for Milwaukee. She had not been reported
there by the port officials, but may have
made some other port.
The Gilcher left Buffalo last tuesday,
and after unloading coal at Milwaukee was
to go to EscanaDa and load iron ore Ior
Ashtabula From there, she was TO go 70
Toledo and load soft coal for Lake Supe-
rior. She carried crew OF - men.
The schooner John Shaw, in tow OF the
steamer John F. Eddy, reached here last
night The Shaw and Eddy had weather
ed a gale at anchor under the.Manitous.
"When off the South Manitou, on orr way
to Chicago said Capt George Dennis, OF
the Shaw. I'VE passed through large
quantity of wreckage. Doors, stools,
window sashes and part OF
steamers bridge, with the bell
still upon it, were floating in the lake Tie
stanchions 10 the bridge, which was pElnt-
ed white, were striped oak. The orldge
was about five feet wide fore and aft, but
l do not know how long IL was. The doors
had sash in the top panels. me glass, OF
course. was broke out. We could see moth
ing which would give any indication OF
what the name of the unfortunate craft
was. There is not particle Of doubt but
the wreckage was from some steamer
which had foundered not far from there. +"
Capt Dennis also reported that medium
sized schooner with its bilge and part or
its bottom showing, was on the oeacn OF the
island. 1t had cargo Of hemlock lumber.
The bottom had been newly calked. He
did not learn the name OF the schooner.
The finding Of the wreckage by the Shaw
leaves no doubt that the wreckage is from
some boat which went to the bottom.
A dispatch from Cleveland says: The
big steamer w. II. Gilcher, owned in this
city, is reported ashore near Manitou.
| Speaking of the reported loss of the yes
sci, Capt John Barlow, Of the firm OF Bar
tow g. Co., owners and agents Of the boat,
said: 81 have heard nothing from
the steamer Gilcher. She is
several days overdue at Mil
waukee. The last news | have OF her is
when she passed Mackinaw in company
| with several other veseels. / am greatly
| worried about her. She was loaded heavy
with coal. am almost positive If she Is
lost she went down at the foot Of Lake
Michigan
The GiIcher is one of the largest steam
ers on the lakes, and the largest ever built
| in Cleveland. She was rated among the
big carriers and has several big cargo
records. She was built by the Cleveland
Shipbuilding Company, and was an exact
duplicate of the steamer Western Reserve,
which was lost, with all on board, on Lake
Superior, the latter part of August.

THE REPUBLICAN OORRUPrIvE FUND

THE REPUBLICAN CORRUPrIvE FUND
If any one doubts that if money can do
it the Republicans will buy this election
let him cast his eye over the partial list
published in another column of con-
tributors to the Republican campaign
fund whose names have leaked out, to-
gether with the amounts they have
contributed. 1t is but small portion
OF the Republican campaign fund, but
the names in the lists and the amounts
contributed are eye-openers. For in
stance ANDREW CARNEGIE is down in
his own name for 100000. while the
Carnegie Steel Company puts up $4,000
more, and all the associate protected
tariff barons have contributed various
sums from $500 to $50, 600. This list
alone foots up over half a million dol
lars.
Let no mistake be made about it; If
money can do it the Republicans will
buy every doubtful State.
Mr.. CHARLES J. HARRAH, a large
manufacturer of steel, boasts in letter
over his own signature, published in
the Philadelphia Times;
This tariff belongs TO us; zee bought L: zoe
paid for Il, ana It is ours; Ce did not put up

PARrIsAN NEWS.

Whenever there is any dirty political
work TO be done for the Republican party
in West Virginia just before an election
the agent Of the Associated Press al
Wheeling can always be relied upon to do
it, knowing that in the doing Of 1t he de-
uberately violates rule OF the Associated
Press that its wires shall, never under any
circumstances, be used for party purposes.
Monday night this reckless partisan sent
out to the Associated Press extrtracts
from letters written by hirelings Of the
Republican State Committee charging
General Stevenson with being an
enemy Of organized labor. AT the
same time there was at his COM
mand Monday night in Wheeling a
letter written By John Mcbride, President
of the United Mine Workers of America,
stating in the strongest terms that Cen
eral SteyensOn's mines were the single
honorable exception among Illinois mines,
and that they are not trying 70 break down
the three new laws Of that State demand
ing weekly payments, weighing before
screening, and adjustment Of the mine
store" Mr.. McBride's letter was sup
pressed, but the false statements OF Steve
Elhns's boodlers were given the widest
publicity. 1t is about time for the Asso-
ciated Press to engage a Wheeling agent
who has some sense Of journalistic decency,
and who would be above the the prostitu-
ton of mis- oficce to partisan purposes
PittSbuT0 Post.
We regret that paper, member OF
the Associated Press, is compelled to
make this statement The REGISTER
has refrained from making similar COM
ment, although the facts have long been
apparent, because Of the reflection it
would imply upon the most reliable and
greatest newsgathering association in
the world.
1t is one of the first principles of the
Associated Press to give no partisan
coloring to its political news, and its
agents everywhere are so instructed.
The agent who violates this agreement
breaks one of the strongest rules of the
association.
