ing the auditorium and stage to tho ut

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Oct. G.-Gen. Jas.
B. Weaver, the Peoples party candidate
for President, arrived hero yesterday.
Mrs. Lease accompanies him. He says
he will speak at Goodlettsville Friday,
in Nashville Friday night, and satur-
day in Pulaski.
The news from Pulaski is OF an alarm
ing nature. Gen. Weaver says hc will
certainly speak there OIL Saturday, and
that he has no intention OF cancelling
his appointments. Letters from the
most conservative people in Pulaski and
Giles county urge strongly that Weaver
be dissuaded from coming, as there are
grave fears OF battle if he appears
there. Every utterance will be criticized
and one imprudent word may lead to
his death.
General Weavers course during the
war made him extremely obnoxious to
the people OF Pulaski, and his bitter
language about his accusers hes created
intense excitement. He asserts that he
will hurl defiance in the face'of his en-
emies. A threat has been openly made
that he will be killed if he uses insult
ing language, but the Third party men
from all over the country, including
many old Confederate soldiers, ore arm
ing and preparing to go to Pulaski,
swearing that they will protect him in
speaking and defend him against as.
sauIt. Both sides are determined and
bloody fight will certainly follow the
firing OF single gun. There are those
who believe that General Weaver may
use such temperate language us to fore
stall any trouble, but oven then the ten
sion and the strong feeling would, In
all likelihood, lead to trouble.
Every effort is being made by the
} Democratic state committee to secure a
quiet hearing for Weaver and to pre-
vent any violent outbreaks, but letters
received here cay that no argument will
avail; that if General Weaver utters any
imprudent word he will be killed and
that all the conservative people in Pu-
laski cannot prevent it. They urgethat
the only safety lies in successfully urg-
ing Weaver not 10 fill his appointment.
The Democratic state committee is very
much disturbed over the situation.

Tho Italian Governments Reply to the
Pope in Regard to PilErimnGes.
ROVE, Oct. 6.-Through the medium
OF confidential agents the Vatican is
prosecuting its negotiations with the
Italian government with reference to
the projected pilgrimages on the occa-
sion of the episcopal Jubilee OF His
Holiness Leo NH. The pope desires
to obtain positive assurances that the
Italian government will maintain order
and prevent the recurrence Of those dis
turbances which caused the greatest
anxiety on previous occasion to the
whole OF the Catholic world. The reply
OF the government was disappointing.
1t was to the effect that the police
would do their duty. This condition
has failed to satisfy the pope, for it is
thoroughly believed at the Vatican that
the disorders of October last we're de-
sired and countenanced by the govern
ment.
The pope regards it as absolutely ne
cessary to take every precaution. 1t WIS
even seriously discussed at one time
whether it might not be wiser TO re-
place the pilgrimages to Rome by pill
grimages to regional shrines. This
idea, however, has been abandoned. If
disturbance should occur in Rome, in
spite OF the pontitical precautions, the
pope comforts himself with the fact
that he will be able to lay the blame on
the Italian government, and thus again
point out to impartial observers the
difficulties attending the cohabitation
Of the two powers at Rome, rendering
its permanent continuation an impossi-
hility.

Tho West Virginia Central Trying to Lease
the Western Maryland.
BALTIMORE, MD., Oct. 6-The nomi-
nation by Mayor Latrobe OF John B.
Mcdonald as one of the city directors
of the Western Maryland railroad, has
come as a thunderbolt to those inter-
ested in preserving the autonomy of the
road. They consider it as disclosure
that Mayor Latrobe favors the scheme
to oust General Hood from the presi-
dency OF the road, which under the
presidency OF Mr.. Mcdonald. who is to
be promoted to his place, will be leased
to the Pittsburgh & West Virginia
Central. This road is backed up by the
Pennsylvania, which is furnishing the
sinews Of war.
The action OF the mayor is regarded
as especially significant in view Of the
fact that it followed Gen. Hoods letter
calling attention to the efforts made by
the West Virginia Central to purchase
wherever they could Western Mary
land stock and charging that all Of the
city's directors were not to be depended
on to be faithful to tho city's interest.
At present the West Virginia Central
people have secured nearly one-half Of
tho stock aud the vote OF one or two
OF the city directors will enable them to
bounce Gen. Hood, who is a great
stumbling block to the leasing OF the
road to the West Virginia Central.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Oct. 6.-secretary
OF State Foster in answer to an inquiry
as to the truth of the report recently
published that the President had init
mated to members of his cabinet that
he did not desire them to take part in
tho campaign by making political
speeches, denied that any such intima-
ton had been given. The President
sees no impropriety in any member OF
his cabinet appearing before the public
in temperate discussion OF political
topics in vindication OF the policy and
acts OF tho administration. 1t is ex.
pectcd that some Of the secretaries will
in the course Of the next few weeks
speak in their own states or elsewhere,
but no such prolonged absence from
their departments is contemplated. as
will interfere with the proper dispatch
OF public business.

WAsulxoroy, D. c., Oct. O.-Aside
from tho ususal cases characteristic in
consumptiyo cases, thcro has been no
particular change in tho condition Of
Mrs. Harrison since she was
brought to Washington from Loon
Lake, about two weeks ago. Al.
though critically i'll, and in
condition which new complication
might speedily prove fatal, her case is
not absolutely hopeless, aud instances
are known where persons in n similarly
extremely dangerous condition have SO
far recovered as to enjoy comparatively
fair health for years.
Such instances are rare, however.
The Presidents family and friendscling
to the hope that Mrs. IIarrison's case
may prove one Of the exceptions to the
rule. The great danger TO be feared is
the reproduction OF fluid in the chest
cavity which might gather in twenty
four hours and prove fatal, and es-
pecially il the patient could not bear
the operation OF aspirating.
Mrs. Harrison's right lung is entirely
consolidated, so that she has no use Of
it whatever. The left lung is not in
volved. Although anxious for prolong-
ed life, the patient does not exhibit
that cheerfulness and hopefulness that
is usually SO apparent in the case Of a
consumptive. This is due to the ex-
treme nervous exhaustion from which
she suffers.
Ever since the commencement OF her
illness she has been affected with ex-
treme nervous prostration and this has
doubtless had very much to do with
her present condition. This extreme
prostration has been the one great
cause which has operated against
her rallying. Her mind is
perfectly clear and she takes
a certain amount OF nour-
ishment each day. 1t consists princi-
paly Of raw eggs in little wine and
pepsin. 1t is not from a desire to eat,
however, that she takes the nourish-
ment, but merely from a sense OF
duty and as a medicine. Her cough
ing spells are not violent and
do not worry the invalid very
much except on rare occasions. Sleep
during the night comes to her in
periods OF from one to two hours at q
time, and this without the aid OF
opiates. She has very fair nights,
being restless only at times. Two
or three hours OF sleep are obtained
in the day time but is not
OF refreshing character. Probably
the most noticeable result OF Mrs. Har-
rison's illness is great emaciation.
Her appearance last year was that OF
strong, healthy and vigorous person
who did not know what it was to be
ill, and the change that has come over
her is said to be most pitiable. Before
she was i'll, Mrs. Harrison weighed 1851
pounds, and it is said that she has lost
during her prostration between forty
five aud fifty pounds.

ATLANTA, GA, Oct. ct is not

like sweeping victory Tor Democracy,
and there is every reason to believe
from returns from 100 out of 1877 coun-
ties that the majority for Governor
Northen will reach $4,000. The vote
has been unusually heavy everywhere,
except in Atlanta. There was no op-
position whatever here, hence large
amount OF apathy which prevented
anything like enthusiasm. So iar not
a single county outside OF the Tenth
district has been carried by tho Third
party, though it is probable some coun'
ties in the Ninth and some in the
Eleventh will 60 that way. The great

that everything was Democratic, has
been manifested in the Tenth district.

PARIS, Oct. 6.-'rheinoculation against
cholera of Mr.. stanhope, the American
newspaper correspondent, has produced
d great sensation here in allcircles. The
Associated Press correspondenthas been
questioning the leading American doc
tors who practice in Paris on the sub
ject.
DIR. Halstead Boyland, Of the Paris
faculty, and formerly professor OF the
Baltimore Medical college, said: From
n humanitarian point OF view, Mr..
Stanhope is a hero worthy OF every
ones respect and admiration. Never
theless science would profit much more
by his experiment if he had chosen
another plan. Instead OF going to u
hospital where there is comparatively
little danger, on account OF the constant
care and disinfection it undergoes, and
where the nurses who have not been
inoculated are also exposed to the dis
ease, he should have gone to an over
crowded, damp and dirty tenement
house where there have been cases Of
cholera before, aud there lead the life
its occupants do. Ii he should do this,
the efficiency OF the Hafkine inocula-
ton would be proved. / firmly believe
in it, but many cases such as Mr.. Stan
hopes, have to come before the public,
who will only then appreciate the value
OF inoculation."
DR.. Good, who is also a prominent
American physician practicing in this
CITY, said:
at is to be lamented that Mr.. STAN
hopes courageous experiment will be
OF no use. Cholera cannot be prevented
by inoculation, us it is disease that
