To even the casual observer there is evident
much difference Of opinion between Secretary
Elkins on the one hand and Gen. Casey and
Mai Chas L. L. b. Davis on the other as to
the public's rights in connection with the Long
bridge Secretary Elkins. who, being a rail-
road man, Is inclined to be liberal with his
associates SAYS: in my Judgment the better
plan by far would be to authorize the railroad
company o. construct a new bridge when neces-
sary exclusively for railroad purposes, at its
own expense, and the government to build a
wagon road bridge at the most suitable point
for public travel"
Maj. Davis. who is q practical and skilled
engineer officer. says: 1.-TWO bridges at this
point would in every way be detrimental to
the interests Of navigation Of the United
States and the citizens OF Washington, and
I recommend that such a proposition be not
entertained. Nor do see any reason why
Congress sAould donate the present bridge
60 the railway company and impose upon
the people the cost of new bridge. The
existing bridge was built by and belonged
10 the United States. 1t was then put into the
possession Of the railway company on the con-
dition that 1t should be maintained as q bridge
for highway travel Now the railway company
proposes by this bill TO appropriate the entire
the United States or the District of Columbia
build one for highway travel"
Comment would be superiuouz.

After suffering of the most intense descrip-

succumbed TO the prolonged assault OF uncon-
querable disease. Heroic efforts we're made by
the i-tingui-hed invalid and by his medical

est possible length, but the hour came when
all efforts were unavailing; when one Of Amer

now-dying generation. He was possessed
Of an ambition that knew no limit, for IL was
based upon the possibilities of national growth
which 10 his keen vision were without bounds.
From an humble beginning he arose to power
such as is given to but few, yet he was denied
the presidency by men who feared his positive
nature and could not understand his advanced
patriotism. That occasion will develop Ameri-
cans great as he is not to be doubted, but
that his peer Is in public life today will hardly
be claimed even by those who loved him not.

Several People Cut and Shot In Election
Riots at Camden, N. j.
CAMDEN, N. j., Nov. S.-The election
in this city resulted in small sized riots
in several of the precincts. The follow
ing have been admitted to Cooper Hos
pital:
Samuel Pullman, 512 Chestnut street,
shot in the head.
George Banks, 1875 Kaigan avenue,
shot in the leg.
Frank SEVERN, Eighth ward, shot in
the head and blackjacked.
Edward Douer, Ninth ward, badly cut
in the head.
Nathan Vandyke, Fifth ward, throat
cut
Julia Chambers, FOG Chestnut street,
while standing near the polls in the First
precinct of the Seventh ward, had her
throat badly cut with a razor.
Michael Kelly, Democratic worker,
stabbed in the neck.
Later in the day the city appeared to
be in the hands of desperate gang of
thugs and reporters. Many deputy sher-
ifs were stopped on the streets and had
their weapons taken from them, and il
looked for time as though the militia
would be needed.

INTEREST AT WASHINGTON.


Result of the Election Not Looked Upon
as Only Local In Significance.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-There has not
been for many years an t'of year" cleo
ton in which the leaders at Washington
have manifested as much interest as in
the one just passed. Tt has been felt by
Democrats and Republicans. alike that
the verdict will be popular expression,
SO far as local issues are not involved, of
the people on the finance question. In
Virginia, for instance, where the cam
paign of the Populists was almost solely
waged on financial issues, the Democrats
were quite unable to gain the attention
of audiences by discussion of
tariff reform or other well known
tenets of the Democratic faith. In
Maryland the discussion turned largely
on the same issue, and, indeed, the
statements of Democratic leaders gener-
ally agree that from the long financial
fight in congress and the final defeat Of
the silver men will come a
Serious Detection in Democratic Ranks
throughout the country. Even Western
congressman and senators who voted
steadfastly for repeal admit that
among their agricultural constitu-
ents there is disafection over
the apparent defeat of silver. Republi-
cans admit that the result Of this cleo
ton can hardly be accepted as a criterion
Of the general elections year hence,
when the financial discussion will have
lost some of it's bitterness, and both par
ties will have better opportunity to de-
clare themselves ON this embarrassing

FRACTIONAL FIGHTS

Resulted In Number of Rows at Pitts
burg Polling Places.
PITTsBURG, Nov. S.-The bitter feel
ing growing out of the fractional fights
here resulted in number of rows at
various polling places. In the second
precinct of the "Bloody" Fifth ward a
dispute arose over the refusal of Peter
Megraw, a Republican member of the
board, to receive vote on a tax receipt
of 1891. Democratic Chairman Brennan
was called, and he insisted that the re-
ceipt was good until next May. This
enraged Megraw, who drew a knife on
Brennan, but before he could use it he
was overpowered. Judge Stowe decided
that the man had right to vote on the
receipt.
In the Second district of the First
ward the Republicans claimed that the
Democrats refused to allow men sus-
pected of favoring their candidate for
sheriff, to vote. A dispute arose, Coun-
Gilman McHugh struck Policeman Pat
Farrell, an ex-pugilist, ON the nose,
drawing blood. Farrell then knocked
McHugh down, and general row
seemed imminent, when Police Magis-
trate Donahue appeared and closed the
polls. 4 force of officers were then de-
tailed to guard the polls and three hours
later they were opened again.

QUIET DAY IN IOWA.

Of the Ticket

Both Sides Claim Majority For the Head
of the Ticket.
Dies MONIES, Nov. 8.-The election in
Iowa was very quiet. In Des Moines a
large vote was polled. Republicans here
are more confident than Democrats, but
the latter are still hopeful for the re-
election of Governor Boies by a large
enough plurality to pull through the rest
of the state ticket.
Some Democrats concede the election
os the Republican ticket with the excep-
ton of jackson, claiming the election of
Governor Boies by 10000 plurality. The
Republicans claim the election of Jack
son by $4,000 plurality, and the election
of the rest of the ticket by 10000 plural
| ity. Conservative estimates place the
total vote at 430, 900, or $4,000 less than
the last presidential election, of which
the Populists will probably get $4,000
and the Prohibitionists 10000.
Republicans believe they will elect go
members of the lower house out of 100,
with 80 members of the senate out of 90

Cotton Esstarx Experiments

A system of moistening the air of a
cotton factory -as is required in some
departments of a mill before blowing it
into the rooms-has been the subject Of
much experiment. 1t has been found
that, if jet Of steam or vapor is dis.
charged into the main duct any degree
of humidity desired can be obtained, but
all the air Is moistened alike, being dis
tributed to the different rooms by the
risers leading thereto. That, however,
which is best adapted for one depart
ment in a cotton mill may not prove
equally favorable for another.
Then, too, the introduction of moist
ure at this point may work disastrously
to the walls Of the ducts and risers. It
is now found that this objection may be
overcome at a small expense, by carry
ing steam pipe down through each
room and putting opposite each opening
in the fiue, through which the air enters
the room, an outlet with valves for regu-
lating the flow of the steam. In this
way the exhaust steam from the engine
which drives the blower flows into the
room, and being caught up by the cur
rent Of air passing from the fue is thus
distributed throughout the room. Elk
perience with this plan through cold
weather has proved its peculiar value

The President of the Black Republic Puts
Down Revolution.
NEW YORK, Nov. 8.-Albert Denise,
passenger on the steamer Orange Nassau,
which arrived during the day from West
Indian ports, brings news of the last
uprising in the Black republic" Ac-
cording to this story some distinguished
natives were in correspondence with
Legitime's adherents in Jamaica. One
of the latter, an Englishman, concluded
that it might be well to see just how
things were going in Hippolyte's do
mains, so hecrossed over to Port au Prince.
He engaged in business and proceeded
to see how the dusky ruler did things
behind the scenes. He was learning
some very fine secrets when govern
ment agent arrested him. He was al
lowed his life ON condition that he leave
the island at once. He did SO. That was
the last of the proposed uprising. Hip
polyte, however, took the opportunity to
make a speech at the palace, and the
next Sunday announced his intention Of
doing as he pleased, even if the island of
Hayh was bathed in blood, and since
then there has not been a single revolu-
ton or uprising. That was month ago.

NOT uNm1xED EVIL.
Repeal Of the silver Law Booms Gold
Prospecting.

I6O0mS !.
Prospecting.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-Advices re-
ceivcd here from the states and terri
tories which have heretofore been known
principally because of their production
of silver, indicate that the repeal of the
Sherman silver purchasing law may not
prove to be an unmixed evil. Inquiry
made among the senators. members and
delegates representing all these states
and territories develops the fact that in
most Of them the miners and prospectors
have begun to exert themselves in the
direction of a search for gold mines, and
are prosecuting this work with un-
wonted vigor. In many instances they
did not wait for the repeal bill to become
law, but very soon after so many of
the silver mines closed down, as many
did upon the announcement of the de
monetization of silver in India, and also
Others after the president had is
sued his call for the extra session,
q great many of the men who had been
let out turned their backs upon the
silver camp and began the search for the
more precious metal. That in many in
stances they have been successful, the
mails of senators and members bear
ample testimony. In Colorado, Mon
tana, Idaho, Utah, Arizona and New
Mexico
Several New Gold Camps
have been opened which promise well,
and work has also been resumed in
many abandoned placers and in quartz
mines which had been deserted. It is
too early, say these Western representa-
tves, to predict how valuable the new
mines may prove to be, as most of them
are mere prospects. In some instances,
however, the mines are producing and
the local assay offices begin to show in
creased returns of gold as a consequence.
Reports from the mining states and
territories received here through the
same agency as the above, also indicate
that many of the more productive and
easily worked silver mines are
still being operated. In most
OF these there has been a reduction Of
wages, ana Id some instances the owners
say they can continue to work if silver
will maintain an average price of 20
cents an ounce. Some Of the silver pro-
ducers are of the opinion that this price
will not be maintained, but that it
Will Be Improved Upon,
because of the demand from. Asia and
Europe, and by the arts and also because
of the falling off in production. They
say, however, that it is only the well de-
veloped and rich silver mines which can
now be worked and that prospecting for
silver and the opening up of new silver
producing mines will cease, and conse-
quently unless there is marked i'm
provement in the price of silver, the pro-
duction of that metal in this country
will practically cease when these mines
are exhausted.
