The Republicans In every election dis.
trlct throughout the State. should care
fully examine the registration lists, which
are now hung up for inspection. In order
to ascertain II their names have been
properly spelled. and that there may be
no variation between them and their tax
receipts. In one district In the country
We are told the names OF several Republl.
cans were spelled improperly, while those
OF the Democrats appeared to be all cor.
rect. There may have been no intention
on the part OF the registrars to do any
Injustice but it is we'll to be careful, as
errors will often occur where there 10 no
intention of wrong doing. Corrections
can be made at the meeting o, the Board
ofRegistrars so lot every man who wishes
to vote. see that his name is in accor-
dance with his tax receipt. so that dis.
putes may be prevented.

In, q speech In Akron. Ohio. Senator
John Sherman, among other things said;
I'VE have pledged the faith OF the United
States that ali forms Of money shall be
equal to each other. Thus far We have
been able to maintain that pledge. Is 1t
not q matter Of pride to every American
that our courage was demonstrated In
war; that our generosity and moderation
were displayed In peace; that our financial
honor is untarnished, and our credit Is
equal to that OF any nation In the. world?
Tho free coinage Of silver will break down
all this- The government will lose all
control over the amount OF money to be
issued. This will depend upon the greed
OF bankers and bullion dealers. There
will be no limit upon 1t except the vast
quantity OF silver In the world. All this
will seek OR market rs long as our silver
dollar is worth more than the bullion in
1t. The result is inevltable-as certain as
the law Of gravltation. The purchasing
power OF the silver dollar with coinage
free will be the market value Of the silver
button. No gold will be taken to the
mint OF be paid Into the Treasury"

Belief That Ex-sIInister Grant Has Bcen
Lost With tho snip Ivanhoe. y
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. Ia, The gale which
has prevailed along the north Pacific coast
since Saturday last has undoubtedly
caused widespread disaster to shipping In
terests. At least three schooners arc
known to be wrecked, and there are grave
reasons for believing that tho American
ship 1vanhoe has been lost with all on
board. There Is little doubt that the
Southern Pacific raft Of 10000 spars and
piles, valued at s9o,0oO has been broken by
the elements. The news of the next few
days, it is thought, win show still greater
loss
The ship Ivanhoe, coal laden, from Seat
tie for this port, is almost certainly lost
Captain @. K. Griffin commanded her, and
she carried q crew Of eighteen men. Col
onel Fred Grant, one Of the proprietors of
the Seattle Post -Intelligencer and ex-min-
lister to Bolivia, was q passenger on the
Ivanhoe, having embarked on her to en-
joy the novelty Of sea voyage. A mast
and yards painted yellow and believed by
seamen to BIO part of the rigging of the
Iyanhoe, have been sighted of the Oregon
coast A floating deck house painted as
was the Ivanhoe was also seen in the To-

water, of The Bee, charged with libel by
ex-Shcriff Bennett, appealed to five judges
OF the district court against having the
case tried by Judge Scott, and the judges
granted his appeal. Judge Scott, however,
made an order multiplying the act of the
five judges, and commands Rosewater to
appear before him for trial, saying: "There
Is no law to take this case Off my docket,

kcying about it some one is going to be

CHICAGO, Oct. 17.-Julius Rohrbach has
asked tho probate court to appoint a con-
servator for the estate of Mrs. Eliza Car
son, his mother-inlaw. 1t originally
amounted to $4,000, but her relatives say
she has spent fully $4,000 of the amount
In Ocean travel. The old lady has not been
of an ocean steamship for more than one
day at time for the last year, and has been
travelling constantly for ten years. 1t Is Ill
legged that Mrs. Carson's love for the sea
has grown to be a mania, and the court
is asked to prevent her from turning the
balance Of her fortune into the Golfers of
the steamship companies.

WILL go UP HIGHER /"
New York Police Commissioners
May Testify.
CROOKED ELECTION PRACTICES.

Mr.. Con IntImates That Eight Hundred
Migrants Have Recently Been Released
from Blackwelrs Island Institutions for
Use at the Coming Election.
NEW YORK, Oct, 17.-There was de-
mand made at yesterdays session of the
Lexow investigating committee for the
members to Ego up higher" By this Is
meant that some of the members of the
committee are tired Of the investigation Of
policemen and minor criminals, and that
the police commissioners and leading poll
ticians should be placed on the stand. This
demand was expressed by Senator Lexow.
Senator O'Connor echoed his sentiments
In still stronger language He said that
enough testimony had been produced
against the rank and file OF the police;
that 1t was now the duty Of the commits
sion to find out just how far the higher
officials of the force had been derelict in
duty. Chairman Lexow said that the pub
lie demand this. Mr.. Goff said In reply
that he was not quite ready to Ego up
higher" but that he would soon be ready
to call the police commissioners to the
stand
One other point Of Importance came out
at yesterdays investigation. Mr.. Golf
came in and announced that he had written
to Superintendent Byrnes and the commits
sioners of charities and correction with re-
gard to complaints Of alleged fraudulent
registration by the inmates Of Blackwell's
Island institutions. Mr.. Golf said that
Superintendent Byrnes had replied to his
letter, saying he would do all he could to
maintain the integrity of the ballot box,
and that on election day the police would
be especially vigorous in prosecuting in.
quiries to that end.
Mr.. Golf said that this was subject that
he thought should be investigated at once
During comparatively recent period 800
Migrants had been committed to the island
Only recently 800 of them had been re-
leased merely upon the recommendation of
clerk in the employ of the commissioners
Of charities and corrections. He then re-

The WAR AGAINST CHINA.
unconfirmed Report Of the Capture O
Port Arthur by Japanese.


Port Arthur by Japanese.
SHANGHAI, Oct. 17.-It is reported that
Port Arthur, the Chinese stronghold,
where the feet of China has been reflttine
after the battle fought off the mouth Of
the ,Yalu river, has been captured by the
Japanese. This dispatch, however, lacks
confirmation.
A dispatch from Win, Corea, which was
delayed in transmission, reports that the
Japanese and Chinese armies are facing
each other on the banks Of the Yalu river,
with both sides perfecting their prepare
tions for battle. Spies report that the
Chinese army is $1,000 strong. 1t may be
that the armies have met, and that Port
Arthur has been taken by the Japanese.
Colonel Won Hannekin, formerly aide de
camp of LII Hung Chang, who was wounded
while acting as adviser to the Chinese ad-
miral who was in command at the naval
battle fought off the Yalu river, Is said to
be In dangerous condition, blood poison

so far recovered from his injuries as to be
able to return to duty, when a relapse pros.
