HILL MAY Be NAMED.
Politicians Ttilk Flower With
drew for that Purpose.
1t Is a Long Step Towards the
Presidential Chair.
His Nomination, 1t Is Thought, Might
Heal Differences.

1t need surprise no one II David Ben
nett Hill Is named by the State Demo-
cratic Convention next week as the
party's candidate for Governor.
The impression seems to be general
among local Democratic politicians to-
day that Gov. Flowers withdrawal from
the contest for the nomination. made
public yesterday after he had had a con-
ference with Senator Hill and Murphy,
was for the purpose Of celaring the way
for HIS nomination.
The reasons for this impression are
not hard to find. Hills ambition is to
become President, and the logical can
dilate of the Democracy for President
In 1896 Will be the Democratic Governor
of the State Of New York-lf, indeed
New York should happen to elect a
Democratic Governor this Fall.
Hill Is the acknowledged leader OF the
machine in the State, and his personal
popularity, 1t Is confidently believed
would strengthen the machine and per.
haps heal or bridge over the differences
that now exist between certain OF the
party leaders in the State.
Senator Hill has not announced his
candidate, but some of his friends in
this city, who usually speak by the
card" are saying to-day mot for publ
cation, however) that Hill is almost GER
tain to be pitted against Morton for the
Governorship.

LONDON, Sept. l9.-Despatches re-
ceived here from Shanghai confirm the
report Of severe battle fought on the
Yalu River, between the fleets of China
and Japan.
The Chinese ships were escorting
troops bound for Corea. The troops were
the Second Army Corps, composed en-
tirely of Huanese.
According to the Chinese version,
there was no thought OF surrender on
either side. The ships of both nations,
1t is admitted, were terribly damaged.
The Japanese had the advantage Of the
weather berth. s-r-
The Chinese fleet lacked room for
manoeuvering.
The Chen Yuen. these dispatches say,
after fighting her guns to the last, was
sunk by torpedoes, and a smaller Chi
nese vessel. which was unarmed, was
blown up.
The steel cruiser Chao-Yung, It is
added. was so damaged that she had to
be beached to escape capture, while the
cruiser Yang-Wei was driven ashore,
and has become a hopeless wreck. Both
these ships are said to have been on
fire.
The Chinese claim that three Japa-
nese warships were sunk. but their
names are not given.
Further dispatches state that In the
battle, the entire Pie-Yang or northern
fleet Of China was engaged, reinforced
by some ships OF the Foo-Chow squad

by Admiral Ting.

INDUSTRIALS OPEN WEAK.
The Worlds Corn Crop Estimates
Strengthens the Grangers.

The excitement In Whiskey and Sugar
has subsidized, but the heavy slump in
prices during the last few days has left
the whole Industrial group in a feverish
and unsettled state.
Whiskey and Sugar had their ups and
downs this morning, but the fluctuations
were confined within much narrower
limits. Whiskey sold down to 10 49, and
Chicago Gas to 81 SIS, with a rally to
10 rs and So l-2. Sugar rose 1, to 81, and
dropped to IS Is.
The railway list continues to display
marked strength, and has advanced IA
to IA per cent The rise Is due partly
to purchases to cover shorts and partly
to a firmer market for Americans in
London. The fact that the latest esti-
mates In regard to the corn crop make
the probable yield 200. 900 to 800, 00O, 900
in excess of the amount named in the
recent Government report also has a
good effect on the grangers.

The special policemen employed on the

The trouble among the policemen be-
gan Monday night, when Capt. Allen
handed them sealed envelopes contain
ing their salaries and ind0rsed by Sheriff
Norton. The men were led to believe
that they would be paid 81 a day and 81
night each. although they admit they
entered into no agreement with the
Sheriff regarding the matter OF pay
when they were appointed.
When they found that their pay for a
days and nights work amounted to
only $3.50. they resolved to go on strike
then and there. Policemen Thomas
Crogan, Michael English and John Mar
