GOV. HoGG's VIEW.

Texas Governor Predicts Revelation
Gov. Hogg was presented al Austin, Tex.
yesterday with gold watch by the Texas
troops. who had just broken their annual
camp. and in a short address to them he
spoke for state rights and condemned the
action Of the President I'm sending troops to
Chicago. He said It Inundated him. and as
soon as he heard OF 1t he telegraphed the
President that he must not call out troops
In Texas. as Texas could and would pre-
serve peace and protect property with her
civil omcers. and II they failed then by her
own military.
The governor took a pessimistic view Of
the future. and predicted that within six
weeks Illinois. California and Kansas will
be under martial law. BY that time he
said Chicago will be about DESTROYED by
anarchists with dynamite, and her beauti-
full buildings will be despatched with the
hearts, lungs, livers and blood of her citi-
zens.
Gov. Hogg also told the militia that II
foreign war did not divert IL Ibis

bloody revolution that would result I'm the
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the republic

WHAT Mrs. CLEVELAND DOES.
How Life 10 Passed at Dussar d's BaY
by the Presfdent's Wife.

| ny toe TreslOente w1te.
| The correspondent Of the Boston Globe
| at Buzzard's Bay writes: Passengers on
the cape-bound trains are made aware Of
| their presence in Buzzard's Bay even be-
fore the trainmen notify them. 1t Is the
sea breeze which is always in motion and
blows into the car windows Just as the
| train approaches the bridge which spans
the narrows and connects Cape Cod with
the mainland. ."-.--.. ,a
There Is. perhaps. no other place on the
entire coast OF the bay which is so con-
tinually famed by the breeze as the Pres
idents summer home. Situated on q pro-
montory. Gray Gables is unobstructed from
the wind which blows either up or down the
bay.
President Cleveland. when ne was being
induced 10 purchase what was then known
as Tudor Haven. now his summer home,
was aware that the region abounded IN
quiet and secluded recesses His neighbor,
Joe jefferson. told him Of the admirable
climate, possessing all the elements neces-
sary for recuperstio from the fatigues OF
professional work. Mr.. Cleveland knew
from experience OF the numerous facilities
for fishing In the immediate vicinity. and
each succeeding season he endeavors TO en-
JOY the comforts Of his home here for q
longer period which however, much TO his
regret. his official duties have thus far
prevented
No one seems 10 know when the President
Will arrive here. At this time last season
he was at his cottage, ana. while not en-
Joying perfect health, he was not prevented
from going down the bay on fishing trips.
The Presidents yacht. Ruth. is lying az
anchor. the fishing gear Is carefully slowed
away, the sails furled. the decks scrubbed
clecn N. and everything In readiness. Mrs.
Cleveland never goes sailing Fishing un-
less accompanied by the President. 20 the
yacht has been drifting lazily ct anchor for
over a month In the bay In front Of the
cottage
Mrs Cleveland has stated that she does
not know when Mr. Cleveland will arrive
at his summer home, and there il no one
here who expects this distinguished visitor
until after the adjournment OF Congress.
when IL is presumed he will remain until
city.
Mrs. Bisscii and child. who have been
the guests OF the first lady OF the land for
the past two weeks returned 70 their hume
on Monday last Mrs. Bissell found the
climate just suited to her. ana her daughter
was greatly benefited by the brief soiourn
here.
IL Is quite likely that Mrs. Bissen will
again visit Mrs. Cleveland IN company
with Postmaster General Bissell at the
time that the other noted Washing tonians
are expected TO be sojourning along the
saore.
Mrs. Cleveland goes to ride daily at the
Usual hour. 5 80. She vtsits the Jencrsons
usual in fact. Mrs. Cleveland las not
visited any one else this season excepting
the Misses Derby % Boston, who arc Stop

first reason az Buzzari's Bay.

standard.
