cLEVELAND DID 1T.

He had tho Troops Called Out At Buffalo
and Homestead to Gain Political Capital.
6eg York Herald tDtHLl
Mr.. Cleveland was greatly concerned
when the switchmen's strike led to the
first destruction Of property at Buffalo,
lest the Democratic administration Of
the state should be hurt by a failure to
call out the militia promptly.
1t was at the request Of Mr.. Cleveland
thet Supreme Judge John NJ. Kennedy,
of Pennsylvania, urged Governor Patti
son to order ont the national guard in
the Homestead trouble. Mr.. Cleveland
on the second day of the strike at Buff
falo telegraphed William O. Whitney to
call out the state militia.
After consultations and more tele-
grams Mr.. Whitney slipped to Albany
and saw Governor Flower, who on the
following day ordered the troops to
Buffalo in force and put an immediate
quietus on the insurgent switchmen.
Mr.. Cleveland's interest was SO active
that he sent telegram Of 175 words
about the matter to Adjutant General
Porter. when he knows very well.
What was in the dispatch is, ofcourse,
not known, but General Porter imme-
diately after its receipt likewise advised
the governor to call out the militia.
