There Was General Gloom About
the City Offices Yesterday.
Another Steal by the Canvassing Board
Explaining How 1t Was Done
Why They Weep.

No other topic than the election was dis
cussed about the city yesterday. The Re-
publicans had not had a chance to dis
cuss good news for five years before, and
they. of course. did not get tired of talking
about it. On the other hand, the Demo-
Gratis were so absolutely dumfounded that
they could think of nothing else. The re-
turns to the canvassing board in no wise
changed the results as announced in the
Journal yesterday morning, though the fig
ures in some instances were changed slight
ly
The newly-elected officials will be sworn
In at noon to-day, according to the provis-
ions of the charter. The new Council will
meet for organization tonight. and then
the whole city government will be under
Republican control. The resignation of the
various boards and Controller WoolIen will
probably be placed in Mayor Denny's
hands this afternon, but they will be re-
quested to serve for time, until the new
Mayor has an opportunity to make his
selections. Contrary to general expectation.
none Of the appointments Will be made until
the latter part of next week.
Il had intended" said the Mayor-elect
yesterday, Ito appoint the new Board OF
Safety the latter part of this week, but
Colonel Hawkins, president of the old
board, called upon me this morning, and
stated that there were many matters be-
fore the board, pending and unfinished,
that would require explanation to the new
members, and ii would be better If he
were present to go over these matters
with the new board when it takes Office.
He had arranged to go to Chicago to-day,
with his family, and will not be back until
next week, so that it IS not likely that any
appointments will be made until that time
OF course, there are all sorts of sur
misses to who will constitute the va
rious boards, and fill the various positions,
but nobody knows anything definite as yet.
In conversation on this subject, with q
Journal representative, a couple of days
before the election, Mr.. Denny said: ITO
tell you the truth, have been so fully oc-
cupied in making my personal canvass of
the city that have given but little thought
to the matter of appointments. 1 have
made not single promise, and though
have thought, in a general way, of num-
Der of men from among whom the board
might be chosen, If they would consent to
serve, / have not reached any definite con-
clusions in the premises. 1 hope however,
to be able, in case of my election OF
which i do not believe there is a bit of
doubt, to call about me men in whom the
people can have implicit confidence"

SIMEON COY TALKS.
He Thinks Street improvements Were
the Great Cause of the Landslide.


Simeon Coy was standing in the vestibule
of an English-avenue car yesterday even
ing discussing the landslide with a couple
of friends. when Journal reporter boarded
the car. Simeon was in a talkative mood,
and when asked what he thought of the
result OF the election he spoke with unusual
force and vehemence.

THIS Is "WHAT DID 1T"
Mr.. Denny Carried Rabbits root
and Said Nothing.

Yesterday afternoon. after the average
Republican had recovered from the sur
prise he received in the phenomenal major
tiles given the Republican candidates, the
question naturally presented itself. what
was the cause?" Several Republicans were
in Mr. Denny's Office yesterday. discussing
the result and one of them asked the
question.
"Why. it's easily explained" remarked
Mr.. Denny as he thrust his hand into his
vest pocket All those present turned to-
ward him, and him draw from the
pocket a rabbits foot with bow OF red,
white and blue ribbon tied around it.
In answer to the question which he saw
in the eyes of everyone present, MIR. Denny
explained that he had received the rabbit
foot about a week before the election, and
with Ii came the following note:

expression. which has characterized the
police department for the past forty-eight
hours is doubtless due to the late un-
pleasantness. superintendent Colbert
walked into his office. early yesterday
morning, with the din of a Republican
trumpet still in his ears The first thing
the chief did after kicking dog out of
the window was to reach for a copy of the
Sentinel. Evidently the organ was unsat-
isfactory, and It went into the waste
basket. This unpleasant reminder of an un-
grateful populace out of the way, the Su-
perintendent sat down and dictated to his
clerk his resignation as chief officer of the
department The document was carefully
addressed to the Board of Public Safety,
and then the superintendent turned his
attention to business with his accustomed
vigor. Although his resignation has gone
forth. Colbert will remain at the head of
the department until his successor is ap-
pointed.
Among the sergeants and patrolmen
there is vast amount of speculation as
TO when the AK will begin TO fall.
Strange to relate, many of the officers are
expecting the advent OF the dread chopping
knife. The prevailing question yesterday
was: What are you goin' TO do?" About
the first act Sergeant Tom Stout expects
TO perform will be that of countermand-
ing the order for a new uniform which he
ordered a few days ago. Sergeant kurtz

FEATURES OF THE, DEBATE.
Dubois Threatens and Voorhees, Talks
About His Principles.

When the Senate met this morning only
twelve members were present. The repeal
bill was taken Up at 11:45 a m, and Mr..
Cockrell, although quite hoarse, resumed his
speech against the bill, begun on Monday.
Mr.. Cockrell said the opponents of repeal
stood to-day and would stand throughout
the struggle ready and anxious to pass the
pending bill with amendments. At 2:10 he
yielded the floor temporarily TO Mr. Smith.
Of New Jersey, who addressed the Senate
in favor of repeal. He denied that silver
had any rights; neither has gold The peo-
pie had right to use silver, but silver had
no right TO use the people. The
outpouring of public sentiment for
free coinage was the result OF
mass meetings held in Colorado, Nevada
and Idaho, at which bloodthirsty resolu-
tions were adopted. and from which en-
anated the threats to annihilate anybody or
anything that stood between those people
and double price for the product OF their
mines.
When Mr. Smith had finished Mr.. Irby
addressed the Senate in opposition to repeal.
He said he spoke as a farmer being the
only member of the Senate whose sole occu-
patton farming. He was opposed TO
the bill as man and as Democrat He
believed in Democratic principles as he did
IN the BlDle.

continued, do not intend TO be driven out
OF the Democratic party by the President
or any of the self-const tituted leaders OF the
Democratic party. They had been honestly
opposed to the nomination Of Mr. Cleveland.
and were now honestly opposed TO the
repeal bill. The representatives of Repub-
lican States had foisted upon the Demo-
cratic party a nominee who did not repre-
sent IL. That was unjust, unfair, undemo-
cratic and irregular. and now IL was fia-
grantly wrong for that nominee 10 use the

Wilmington Star: Rev. E.. A. Yates,
presiding elder of the Durham district,
and so well known here, where he has
spent so many years as a greatly beloved
pastor, still holds his grip as a minister
of power and influence. A man of but
few words, those words are always to the
point. If words of argument they con-
vince, and if words of sarcasm they cut.
His head doesn't look like it ever had any
other than a gray hair on it; but gray
hairs are honorable, when they come with
such splendid service as DR.. Yates has
given the church.
Wilmington Messenger: Rev. DR.. Ed
win A. Yates is one Of the intellectual
forces Of Methodism in North Carolina.
He is well known in Wilmington, having
served for eight years as pastor of old
Front Street church. He has many very
strong friends and admirers in this city.
He has filled important charges, served
for eight years as presiding elder On the
New Berne district, and has been for
three years on the Durham district. He
has filled several of the largest, most i'm
portant pastorates. He is eminently a
thinker, and of philosophical cast of mind.
He is capable of very able preaching
when at his best. His contributions to
the Southern Methodist Review are al
ways thoughtful and suggestive. He
writes often for the press, and some Of
his contributions are of marked excel
lence. He is turned sixty and has been
and is an important factor in North Caro-
lima Methodism.
Wilmington Messenger: This con-
ference is only entitled to five clerical
delegates to the general conference, so
the bishop requested the conference to
prepare their ballots with five names.
When the Rev. N. NJ. Jurney was calling
out the ballots he reminded the bishop
that he had found in the hat a ballot
with six names. DR.. Yates said he
thought it proper to call the first five
names so they were called. The first
name on the ballot was DR.. E. A. Yates.
This created general laughter. AS Dr.
Yates only liked four votes of being
elected on the first ballot, it is conceded
he will be elected in the morning.
1.-THE election resulted as follows: An
election was entered into for the remain
ing clerical delegates to the general con-
ference. Rev. E. Yates, D. D., Rev. w. II.
