A NEW BOOM FOR PORT ROYAL
louisville and Nashville Directors to
Visit the Port.

Washington, Nov. 1s.-A party of
Louisville and Nashville directors, headed
by Directors Rutter and Marcus, will
leave New York next Saturday for Port
Royal to inspect, presumably, the Port
Royal and Augusta railroad from that
terminus. The party will consist Of about
five of the directors and the chairman Of
the finance committee. This revives
the ancient rumor that the Louisville
and Nashville wants 10 reach the sea
and controlling the remainder OF the
route 10 Louisville and ST. Louis, it will
give a direct route from those two cities
to the coast 1t has always been Milton
Smiths policy to have a.terminus on the
coast, and it is thought here that it is the
intention now to get control of this piece
of property.

CLEvELAND's SILVER LETTER.
One Promised From Senator Hill But
it Never Game.


New York, Nov. 18.-The Reform club
of this city held an eventful meeting and
gave an elaborate dinner tonight. Presi-
dent Charles F. Fairchild, ex-Secretary
of the Treasuary, presided at the ban
Quet.
When speechmaking arrived, e. Ell
lery Anderson gave a history of the way
in which President Cleveland came to
write his famous silver letter to the
Cooper Union meeting of Feb II, 1891
1t was the first time, he said, it had
been told. When it was proposed to hold
a meeting in favor of the repeal of the
Sherman silver purchasing law, Mr..
Anderson said he called on a close friend
Of Tammany Hall and MIR Hill This
man told him that ia letter Of Invitation
was written to Gov Hill, a satisfactory
response was sure to be received, but he
would venture to bet that none would
come from President Cleveland CAL
though" said MIR. Anderson, II was
aware that both gentlemen would be can
didateS for the Presidency, and
for that reason might hesitate
about committing themselves, | de-
cided to make the experiment Next day
this same gentleman went to Albany, and
on returning came to my Office and as
sured me that letter would come from
Gov. Hill. The night of the meeting
was prepared to leave my house when a
letter was handed me. 1t was Mr. Cleve-
lands well known chirography, and was
nothing less than the famous document
which landed him in the whitC house
We have to receive Mr.. Hills reply"
Everett z. Wheeler and President Fair
child also spoke.

FIREMEN IN PERIL.
Three Badly Injured and One Missing
at Kansas City.

Kansas City, Mo, Nov. 1s.-F'ire de-
stroyed the 4-story brick building of the

John Burke and Walter Her.
Fred Ricketts,, foreman Of one of the

but it burned slowly at first The fire.
men were on ladders all about
the building and Clarkin, Burke and Her
were inside on the second floor. Suddenly
they felt the building tremble and all ran
for their lives. Her was not seriously
hurt. Burke and Clarkin went down IN
the wreck and their escape from instant
death was almost miraculous Thirty
minutes later the remaining walls of the
building were down. The collapse was
due, it Is said, to explosives.

the admiralty will ask grants for en-
larging the works at Famagosta and
Larnica on the Island of Cyprus that the
fleet in the Levant may have constant
access to supplies and ammunition. Ad-
miralty experts hold that the suggested
performances of France and Russia
against the BosphOrus or Egypt would
now be extremely perilnus, and before long
will be quite impossible. The decrease of
the revenue and the increase of the esti-
mates has resulted in a deficit.
NO PRIVACY FOR PUBLIC MEN.
Both Lord Rosebery and Lord Her
schell have complained publicly of the

private life of the public man had ceased
to exist

right to retirement and repose?N he asked
"Must his life. cease entirely to be his

bitterness. When asked by a radical depu-
tation to supervise appointments to the
magistracy the lord high chancellor ex-
claimed: 81 would sooner resign and

PAY OF DISPENSERS OUT.
The Blind Tigers Robbing the State
Saloons of Their Profits.

Charleston, S. c., Nov. 1s.--There's an
other interesting hitch.in the dispensary
here. John d. Pletscher, who was one the
first dispensers has thrown up the sponge
and resigned his Office. He says the pay
is too small 1t is probable that other
dispensers will follow suit. The fact is
that the dispensaries are not in it with
the blind tigers and are all closing
money, or making so little that the
governor has reduced the pay. When the
four dispensers were appointed IL was
understood that they were to get 81 200 q
ear. 1t is said that their pay has been
fixed at something under 500, out Of
which they have to pay their help
To-day Gibbes Whaley, who represents
the attorney generally, finally withdrew
the suit commenced by the state TO pre-
vent the South Carolina railway from
bringing other than dispensary whisky
into the state. The dispensary spies
raided five alleged barrooms but found no
contra band goods at all.

SOMETHING IN THE WIND.
Blount's Report Being Put Into Type
With a Rush.

With a Rush.
Washington, Nov. 1S.-It is evident to-
night that something extraordinary is in
the wind concerning Hawaii. This af-
ternoon after the state department had
evidently heard from Minister Willis via
dispatches forwarded to San Francisco
and telegraphed from there, a hurried
order was sent to the government print
ing office directing that a force of 300
printers be set to work with instructions
to keep at it all night, this
force to be relieved tomorrow by
another force of 300 men. They are
engaged in getting out some sort of secret
document for the State Department to
meet some peculiar and pressing
emergency 1t has been definitely learned
that this document is Commissioner
Blount's report on the abrogation of the
monarchy in Hawaiia and the esta ablishment
of the provisional government. What it
is that has made urgent the
production of unlimited printed copies
of this hitherto jealously guarded re-
port can only be coniectured. No
body conversant with the facts
will say a word. 1t may be the intention
of the administration to make the Blount
report public Immediately, though Secre-
tary Gresham said only yesterday that
this would not be done until congress was
in session and it was transmitted to that
body. OF course this may not be the OBJ
iect of this unusual haste to have the re-
port put in type, but it appears tonight
to be the only reasonable explanation.
NOTHING STARTLING LOOKED FOR.
Secretary Gresham was apparently
less interested in the expected news from
Honolulu than any other person, and this
fact gave rise to a suspicion in advance
of actual information from the steamer,
that he had no expectation that anything
of moment had occurred in Hawaii.
The secretary heard the press bulletins
with languid show of interest, but 9th
erwise he was apparently engrossed in
the work of reading state papers, and in
receiving visitors who called to say some
thing about appointments. Officially, the
state department was not even made
aMare of the arrival Of the Steamer.
