The Monument 1t Philadelphia Appro.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. M.-The bronze
equestrian statue of General George B.
Mcclellan was unveiled with elab-
crate ceremonies at the northwest cor
ner of the city hall plaza. The event
was notable one in the city and state,
and preceding the exercises at the I'M.
yelling Of the statue there was civic
and military pageant unexampled in the
history Of Philadelphia, as demonstra-
ton of popular respect and affection.
Throngs Of visitors have been arriving
on every train from all parts Of Penn
sylvana, Delaware and New Jersey.
Many Ups and Downs.
It is nearly nine years since the
project to erect monument to General
Mcclellan was started. The day after
his death, on Oct. 20. 1885, ex-Mayor
Smith appointed committee to repre-.
sent the city at the funeral. Upon
their return they determined to
erect monument, but after raising
a few hundred dollars they concluded
that sufficient funds could not be Sc.
cured: In the meantime a number of
clubs formed the Mcclellan Memorial
association, and the funds on hand
were turned over to them. From this
small sum, after many vicissitudes.
there has been raised the sum of SIS,
600, and the monument when com.
pleted will have cost about $l9, 900.
The statue is Of bronze, of heroic size,
and represents Little Mac seated erect
upon his famous charger.

sICKLEs. AND WALSH OFF

was d. Inc fdTk avenue uOCel uO4u1uS
a conference with the Democratic lead
ers with a view Of Strengthening out
the rough places in the Democratic
situation, and especially regarding the
congressional nominations.
Senator Faulkner, chairman of the
congressional committee, breakfasted
with the senator. They are said to have
agreed that a policy of Cancellation
would be necessary. After the con-
ference, Senator Faulkner returned
to the Imperial hotel to meet
Police Commissioner Martin and
other Tammany leaders to see if
terms could not be arranged. Among
Senator Hills callers were F. M. Scott,
ex.Mayor Grace's right hand man, who
was the Reform League candidate for
mayor in 1890 against Grant; E. Ellery
Anderson, August Belmont, Perry Bel
mont and George w. Green, one of the
county Democracy congressional can
didates
< Senator Hill had a long conference
with Lieutenant Governor Sheehan and
Major Hinckley of the Democratic
state committee. ~---.
A Compromise Reported.
AT democratic headquarters it is said
that an arrangement has been made
regarding congressional nominees,
whereby General Sickles and J.. ].
Walsh, Tammany candidates, will with
draw. Amos J. Cummings remains on
on the ticket and so does Jacob A.
Cantor.
o. Tamm.ny Objected.
: The Tammany people strenuously OBJ
jected at first to conceding two dis.
tricts of the state Democracy, but Mr..
Grace held out for his original claim
and for the other condition that Robert
Grier Monroe be recognized as a regu-
lar cond in any conferences goes,
and now all that remains is to obtain
the consent of Messrs. Sickles and
Walsh to their own sacrifice in the in.
terest Of harmony.
/ Among the rumors current around
the Park Avenue hotel Democratic
headquarters is one that upon the
success of Senator Faulkner's mission
depends the Endorsement by President
Cleveland of Senator Hill. s,s.a5.
Cleveland Would Speak.
President Cleveland's representatives,
it is alleged, have assured Chairman
John Boyd Thacher and Lieutenant
Governor Sheehan that if Senator
Faulkner could with such assistance as
the Democratic national managers
would render him, straighten out the
congressional snarl and put the party in
the state in line with the party else.
where. the president would not only
come to New York and register but
would, while here, make a speech in
dorsing Senator Hill. The one thing
that now stands in the way Of this
in addition to the congressional matter
is the city and county ticket.
Certain Of the managers insist that the
president should in addition indorse
Tammany ticket. This the president,
it is said, does not wish to do. He is
as taking the position that
his Endorsement of state and congress.
sional candidates is quite as far as he
can properly be expected to 60.
