THE VOTE FOR REPEAL.
A Majority Of Nine Counted on in the
Senate.
How the Vote is Divided Among POlit-
sent-HOw Individuals VIII Vote.

There has not been a time before now
during the fight on the silver question in
the Senate when one could, with any GER
tainty, make an estimate Of the final vote
sfor and against repeal. BY this time. how
ever, the Senators have taken public atti-
tude on one side or the other, and a cal
culation as to how they will line up on the
last struggle may be made with safety.
Should there be no OBJECTIONS from either
side the majority for repeal on the straight
question will be about nine. 1t may be
eight or ten, yet nine is the figure that is
generally accepted. Counting all Senator's,
the repeal vote Is made up Of twenty-five
democrats and twenty-five republicans
while the negative strength will be COM
posed Of twenty-five democrats, thirteen
republicans and three populists. making
forty-seven for repeal and thirty-eight
against. But this list includes several alb
sentees. seven in all, and so the final vote
is not likely to be quite so large. OF these,
hve are for repeal namely, Senators ALL
son. Chandler. Hale. Morrill, and Wilson.
and two are pronounced silver men, Mitchell
of Oregon and White of California. Pre-
Stunning that the silver absentees will be
paired with two repeal Senators not in their
seats-though this Is not certain-there will
be but five votes to be taken from the total
estimate Of each side. Thus the tally should
be for repeal AZ against 49,
The following named Senators are booked
for votes for repeal: Democrats. Brice.
Canery, Camden. Faulkner, Gibson, Cor
don. German. Gray. Hill. Hunton. Lind
say. Mcpherson, Mills Mitchell (Wis.), Muir
ply, Palmer. Ransom, Smith, Turpie, Villas,
voorhees,. White Ua)-22.
Republicans. Aldrich Allison, Carey,
Chandler. Cullom. Davis. Dixon. Dolph
Frye. Gallinger. Hale. Hawiey. Higgins,
Hoar, Lodge, Mcmillan, Henderson. Morrill,,
Plat. Proctor. Quay. Sherman. Stockbridge.
Washburn and Wilson-2J.
The silver strength is thus classified:
Democrats Bate. Berry. Blackburn, Butler,
Call. Cockrell Coke. ColQuitt, Daniel.
George. Harris, Irby. Jones (Ark.). Martin,
Morgan. Pasco. Pugh, Roach, Vance, Vest,
Walthall, White Cal.)-22.
Republicans. Cameron, Dubois, Hans
brough. Jones Nev), Mitchell (Ore.) Perkins.
Pettigrew, Power Shoup, Squire, Stewart,
Teller and Wolcott-13.
Populists, Allen. Kyle and Peters,
Though Senator Berry Is properly classi-
fled here as a silver man. in accordance with
his expressed views. 1t is likely that he
will be found on the repeal side on the final
vote. He is the only uncertain element.

THE PEOPLE ARE TRE RULERS.

Text of Ex-Speaker Reeds Remarks
at Boston.
The third annual dinner Of the Republi-
can Club of Massachusetts was held in
Music Hall. Boston. last evening.
The first appearance of ex-Speaker Reed in
New England during the campaign and the
announcement that Congressman Dalzell of
Pennsylvania was to speak. and also that
all the prominent republican state candi-
dates were to be present, drew the largest
crowd the club has had at a dinner Nearly
800 plates were laid.
Soon after o'clock Chairman Simpkins
opened the speaking with the sentiment:
Massachusetts republicans are in ear
nest. Earnestness means success He
presented as the first speaker Candidate
Greenhalge Mr.. Greenhalge spoke of the
campaign, which. he said. had been con-
Quoted in a manner worthy the common
wealth. He said:
have attempted to rise above any mere
spirit of the jockey of the gambling sa-
loon, and to carry on this battle in the spir-
1t of Harvard, fair. manly. true. and above
trick or device"
Mr.. Greenhalge spoke, fifteen minutes
and was loudly applauded. The next
speaker was Roger Wolcott candidate for
lieutenant governor: He was followed by
Congressman DalZell.
The last speaker Of the evening was Mr..
Reed. He received an ovation, and spoke
substantially as follows:
1T Is my purpose to make not a partisan
speech. but an unbiased address, and, to
start right, / commence with a citation
from the only unbiased newspaper know
Of the headline. President Victorious
Over what? The democratic party.
Let us give the President credit for his
firmness. but there lies at the foundation of
our government system no worship of man,
but an honest belief in the intelligence and
good sense Of the people. The members OF
the majority party determined there should
be dsgraceful compromise.
when the men who arranged 1t came to
the republican side they found us a solid
rock, backed by the universal judgment of
the people, and after that came the demo-
lition of the compromise. Stronger than all
of us stand the people. and so 1 trust 1t
will always be.
For the first time in the history of this
land, the Senate is the subject of houts and
jeers of ali mankind. Is that situation Of
things which the American people can af-
ford to have?
1T is not true that the people are the
rulers only on election day. There is never
a time when their magnificent power can
not reach out to President against a re-
bellous Senate, or to teach party in pow
er that it's days of power are numbered
unless the edicts Of the people are obeyed

An American girl who has lived in Paris
declares that that great metropolis is alb
solutely provincial and countrified i'm many
respects. Here in Chicago one may go her
way undisturbed, though she wears a tub
on her head, but there one has to sub
scribe to traditions.
The girl in question tells how at one time
she bought a pretty little felt cap, very
much like Tam OShanter. in the Latin
quarter. Naturally, having bought it, she
put it on her head and went out Now ii
seems that these particular hats We're
worn only by men, though the fact did not
dawn upon the American girl until she
found herself with a following of small

who spoke rudely to her. and women who
laughed tempestuously. 1t really looked as

TRAGEDY OF A TENEMENT.

Shooting ARRAY Followed by q Des-

BOSTON, Oct. 26-In an attic tenement
on Billerica street last night a shooting af-
fray occurred which resulted in the death
of one man and the wounding Of two others.
The tenement is occupied by John Glass
and family. Glass and a man named Simon
Martelson have been interested in some real
estate matter with Louis Warsofsky, a
Russian.
Warsofsky. who. it is said. had been
drinking, went to the Glass tenement last
night and was doing on a lounge when
Glass and Martelson arrived. Some talk
ehsueo ABOUT property matters, when War
so1sky suddenly jumped up, drew a revolt

Warsofsky then shot himself in the left
breast and jumped through window sash

When found he was dead In one of his
pockets was found letter directed to
Glass IN which Warsofsky spoke of his
business troubles and said that he had de-
cided to end his life. He wrote affection
ately or his mother and asked that certain
OF his effects be sent to 1879 Monroe street.

ONLY A WATCH.
But Its Manufacture Requires the Ex'
ercise of Great Skill.

But Its Manufacture Requires the Ex-
ercise of Great Skill.
From the Locomotive Engineer.
Omen your watch and look at the little
wheels, springs and screws. each an indls-
pensable part Of the whole wonderful ma
chine. Notice the busy little balance wheel
as It flies to and fro increasingly, day and
night, year in and year out. This wonder
full little machine Is the result of hundreds
of years of study and experiment. The
watch carried by the average man is COM
posed OF ninety-eight pieces and its manu-
facture embraces more than two thousand
distinct and separate operations.
Some of the smallest screws are SO
minute that the unaided eye cannot dis
tinguish them from steel filings or specks
of dirt. Under a powerful magnifying glass
a perfect screw is revealed. The slit in the
head is 2-1,000 of an inch wide. 1t takes
30S.000 of these screws to weigh pound
and a pound is worth $1.5S5. The hairspring
is strip of the finest steel, about 3 L.
inches long and 1-10O inch wide and 27-10 900
inch thick. 1t is coiled up In spiral form
and finely tempered.
The process Of tempering these springs
was long held secret by the few for
tunate ones possessing it. and even now is
not generally known. Their manufacture
requires great skill and care. The strip is
sauSei to 20-l 600 of an inch. but no meas
urins instrument has yet been devised ca
pablo of fine enough gauging to determine
beforehand by the size of the strip what
the strength of the finished spring Will he
A 10000 part of an inch difference in
thickness of the strip makes n difference
in the running of the watch of about six
minutes per hour.
The value of these springs when finished
and placed in watches is enormous in PRO-
portion to the material from which they
are made. A comparison will give q good
idea A ton of steel made up into hair
springs when In watches is worth more
than twelve and one-half times the value
of the same weight in gold. Hair spring
wire weighs One-twentieth of a grain to
the inch. One mile of wire weighs loss
than half pound.
The balance gives five vibrations eycrv
second. 300 every minute. 1900 every hour
432. 0C0 every day and l57. $50 900 a wear. A.
each vibration 1t rotates about ona and
one-fourth times, which makes 1877 100 COZ
every year. In order thstAwe NAV better
understand the stupendOus amount of t1bor
performed by those tiny works let us max o
few comparisons.
Take. for instance. a locomotive with six
foot driving wheels. Let its wheels be rim
until they have given the same number Of
revolutions that a watch does in one year
and they will have covered a distance equal
to twenty-eight complete circuits of the
earth. All this a watch does without other
attention than winding once every twenty
four hours.

STILL TALKING FIGHT.
Mitchell Wants n Contest with ,
Limited Number of Spectators.

Limited Number of SPECTATOR.
A meeting which was to be held yester-
day in New York between Charles Mitch.
ell. champion heavyweight boxer of Eng
land. and William A. Brady, James ]. Cor
.betts manager, was postponed owing to
the sudden illness of Mrs. Brady Mitchell
has agreed to wait several days more.
In an interview with United Press re-
resentative Mitchell said he felt satisfied
that If the fight could not take place in the
state of New York 1t could not in any
other state; that his object in coming to
this country was to fight Corbett, and he
has now reduced his weight from ae7 to 1874
pounds. although he has not yet gone into
what might be called active training. Nit
chell is in fairly good shape, although he
mas done no training further than to run
from fifteen to twenty miles a day.
In conversation with a few friends Nit
chell said:
About the only plausible proposition
that can make to Mr.. Brady and Mr. Cor
bett providing no purses are in sight. is
that we fight for the stake Of 10000 a side
winner to take ALL each side to have from
five to ten men,"
Club OF New Orleans will make some effort
to get the Corbett- Mitchell battle should
the two men decide to contest in that cjty.
The contest committee of the club met last
night in their club rooms for the purpose of
studying the exact situation. The review
of the matter Is that 200. 900 out of $50 coo in
that city are anxious to have the fight
take place there. but should they find too
strong an opposition they probably will
leave the contest alone. The committee
that discussed the matter thoroughly be-
lieve that the public opinion will not at
tempt to stop the battle. Both of the men
have expressed to, the club that If New
York will not furnish the battle ground
the New Orleans club will have the
battle. The club will not offer a large
purse for the men, but will make a bid Of
about $4,000. None of the members Of the
committee would speak on the proposed
plans but they acknowledge that they will
pull the international contest of with the
aid of the police.
The proposed fight before the Coney Is
land Athletic Club in December has been
officially declared off. Judge r. V. Newton.
who succeeded in signing both Mitchell and
Corbett, met the former last night and in
formed him that the authorities Of Kings
county had notified the club officials that
the fight could not take place at Coney
Island. He added that the club would re-
compense him and Corbett for the time lost
in training. Mitchell was greatly disap-
pointed over the failure of the club to pull
the fight off. and he intends to start for
England in a few days

Good Game.

Good Game.
The best foot ball game of the season
was played yesterday afternoon at National
Park between the Y. NJ. c. A. and George
town College. 1t was the second game
between these two rivals this fall. and, as
was the case with the first, victory perched
lightly upon the banners of the college boys
rms game. however. was much closer and
more exciting than the first and the score
by which 1t was wQp-16 to S-shows how
sharp the ba tile was.
Details of the Game.
The Georgetown team was rather weak
In defensive work, and the presence Of sew
eral subs on the team did not improve mat
tiers. There were five of the regular eleven
absent, and the substitutes did not add
any strength. The Y. NJ. c. A. bucked the
center repeatedly with great success, and
for a time had the collegians on the rum
The Y. NJ. c. A. lacked team work. but in
individual plays showed to better advan-
tage than their rivals Harder PLAYED q
fine quarter back for the Christians, and
his work was the feature of the game Just
before play stopped on account Of dark.
ness Harder was injured and forced to with
draw. Hooker took his place.
The first scoring was done by Georgetown
After some sharp playing Carmody gained
five yards on a double pass, and Conner
ford followed with similar gain. Craig
then carried the ball over the line for a
touch down. and Carmody kicked goal. On
the line up johnson gained ten yards on
the flying wedge. Davidson fumbled, but
Y. NJ c. A. still held the ball. Repeated
buckings Of the Georgetown center advanc-
ed the play to within fifteen yards of
Georgetown's goal and Harder carried the
ball over for a touch down. Leet failed to
kick goal.
In the second half there was a general
Improvement in the tackling of both teams
The first had closed with the score l6 to
in favor of Georgetown, but in the second
Leet made touch down for the Y. NJ. c.

Mayor Harrison and the Policeman.
From the Pittsburg Times.
Mayor Garter Harrison of Chicago, boasts
that he is one of the people, and so he
would not go down to the fair in a carriage
on Monday. He started to go by boat, but
the crowd was so great he could not get on
one. Then he tried to climb over a picket
fence to go to the railroad train, but a
policeman caught him and exclaimed: "Ah.
there, you old skate! What are you doing
on that fence? Get off or I'll run YOU in"
My friend" said the mayor suavely. 81
must get to the fair. l am to ring the Lib
erty Bell. Chicago day will not get on
without me-
1T makes no difference. Get back or I'll
run you in"
Then the mayor drew himself proudly
erect. showed his gold star and said: II am
mayor Of Chicago"
That's different" said the policeman
Put your hand on my shoulder and I'll
help you over the fence"
And the mayor reached his train.
