BELGIAN ANARCHISTS BUSY.
Evidence of Formidable Conspiracy
Unearthed by the Police.

BRUSSELS, May 5.-The magistrate
who is inquiring into the explosion that
wrecked the residence of Count Minette
at Liege says that the bombs were
lharged with twenty-five kilograms of
lorcite. Fourteen Kilograms more of
the explosive have been stolen and fresh
outrages may be expected.
The authorities had no doubt that
Beaujean and Lefebvre, the two men
arrested on Tuesday, were guilty. At
Beaujeans lodgings were found cart
ridges and dynamite. Beaujean made
D full confession and incriminated other
anarchists, who were arrested yester-
say. Two are named Nossent and La
cruix.
Cartridges have been found in the
house of a man arrested at Stoumont.
The police declare that they have dis
covered evidence of formidable con-
splracy, the headquarters of which are
at Llege. The conspirators are thor
oughly organized, and their aim is to
terrorize the population by explosions.
some of the conspirators sought en-
ployment at manufactures of explosives,
where they stole as much as they could.
Detectives are at work among the
miners and factory operatives, and as
sociating with known anarchists. At
Mons man who indiscreetly divulged
to one of his fellow workmen that he
was concerned in an anarchist plot found
himself shortly in the hands Of the police.
The prisoner, with four other men,
had made arrangements to blow up the
houses of MN. Raulier and Belloys,
bankers at Mons, and the residences of
other leading citizens of the place. The
prisoner had in his possession five pow
srful dynamite cartridges.

immense floods in the Illinois, Fox and
Kankakee rivers are still rising Never
in the history of the state have the
waters rose to SO great height At sew
eral points it lhad attained height of
eighteen feet above low water mark At
Marseilles the danger was greatest, and
the flooding of the town and destruction
of millions of dollars worth of property
was only prevented by keeping several
hundred men at work on the levee all
night and day. The levee is now out of
danger. Hundreds of square miles of
farming lands are under water. Tho

been misled by sensational reports re-
garding a threatened uprising of the
Cheyenne Indians in the new counties,
and has reached this city EN- route to the
state of disturbance. There is no trou-
BILE between the Indians and the settlers,
and the whole story arose from dis

than he was entitled to. No threats
have been made against the whites and
no blood shed.

An Immense Ratification Meeting
Governor Flower Presides-Senator
HIPS Speech.
NEW Y oRK, Oct. 25.-Tammany held
grand ratification meeting tonight. The
wigwam was packed and the throng about
twelve open air overflow stands filled up
the streets and paralyzed traffic. 1t is
claimed the total attendance exceeded 100,-
900. The crowd in the wigwam before the
meeting was opened repeatedly cheered for
Cleveland and Stevenson, Hill, Flower and
Gilroy. When National Chairman Hsrrity,
National Committeeman Dickinson and B.
B. Smalley and other prominent democrats
came into the hall they were greeted with
applause and hurricane of cheers well
coined the speakers of the evening as they
came upon the stage. State Senator Roesch
introduced Governor Flower as chairman.
The governor was loudly cheered. He
made an address.
After Governor Flowers speech reso-
lutions were adopted endorsing the ma
tional platform and ticket, denouncing
the force bill; approving the attitude taken
by Mr.. Cleveland in his letter of accept
| ance on the great question of tariff re-
form; commencing the administration Of
| city affairs and pledging decisive ma
| jority in this city for the democratic candi-
dates. Governor Flower next introduced
| Senator David B. Hill and there was
another great outburst of cheers.
! Governor Hill called attention to the fact
| that this was the first time he had
ever addressed the democracy of NewYork
| in Tammany Hall. He said: "To day the
greatest reliance of intelligent political OBJ
servers for the success of our national can
| didates in this state is upon the immense
| majority which is expected to be rolled up
| in this city under the auspices of the mag
nifcent organization of Tammany Hall"
Proceeding the governor expressed con-
tempt for the .ostentatious zeal of the new
convert who, after for years enjoying the
honors of position conferred upon him by
his party suddenly assumes to see 9
bitterly assails his former politica
associates with venomous vituperation
He remarked: would make the democrat
10 party strong, not by catering to tn
whims Of the few who temporarily all,
themselves with us on infrequent occa
sions, but by satisfying the great faithful
masses who make up the bulk of the part
and who stand by their colors in sea
son and out of season, in adversit
as we'll as in prosperity, in shadow as vel
as in sunshine, in defeat as well as in vic
tory. I would not advise the foolisl
/ course of 80 shaping our policy as to catcl
| one vote on Fifth avenue and lose ten Il
t the Bowery. I would build up not a per
: sonsl party, but the democratic party"

Q theory on this subject. Speeches wer

POLYGAMY DECLINING.
So Says the Annual Report of the Go
ernor OF UJtah

SO says the annual report OF the Gov.
ernOr of Utah.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Arthur l..
Thomas, governor of Utah, in his annual
report says that polygamy in the territory
is on the decline. He does not believe that
any polygamous marriages have taken
place during the year with the consent or
permission of the Mormon leaders and he
expresses the opinion that large majority
of the Mormon people now believe it to be
wrong to live in unlawful cohabitation
Governor Thomas says there is no doubt
that many persons who contracted polyga-
nous marriages before the law went into
operation have been guilty of this offense,
but he remarks that 1t is to be regret
ted that the sincerity of whole people
seeking to accomplish q great reform should
be placed under suspicion by the acts of a
few, and he thinks it will be years before
the practice of unlawful cohabitation will
entirely cease. In regard to the admission
of Utah as state the governor says that
between the two great elements of the pop
ulation, Mormon and non Mormon, the
sympathy of feeling and harmony of pur-
pose does not exist which is SO essential to
the prosperity and happiness of the people
under statehood, yet it would he an act
unworthy the justice of a great government
to turn deaf ear to the appeal of the men
who in Utah have always upheld its au-
thority and obeyed the laws
