MISS B%ARRoWoLIFF SITS UP.
Beginning to Take an Interest in the
World.

World.
Miss Barrowcliff was permitted to sit at
the window of her room in the City Hospital
this morning. She had not been there many
minutes, however, before she complained of
her eyes hurting her. They are yet week
and the bright sun shining on the white
snow proved too much for her. She talks
freely to the nurses on various subjects and
and lately has expressed a great desire to
know what is going on in the world around
her. The nurse tells her what she thinks
will interest her, being careful, however, to
say nothing which will excite her.
Miss Dexter called this morning as she
has every morning since the quarantine,
which was imposed on the sick one, has been
raised. Two detectives are still hunting for
her assailants, but with poor success. Miss
Barrowcliff seldom speaks of her trouble
now, but when she does she sticks to the only
story she has ever told, namely, that she
was struck in the back of the neck when
near the board walk.

Chairman Babcock of the Repu blcan Con-

Chairman Babcock of the Repu blican Con-
gressional committee to-day came into DOS
session of an advance copy of pamphlet
which he is Informed is being printed for
general circulation in connection with the
literature now being so largely compiled
against the organization known as the
A. p. A., and in which it is charged that
the committee: of which Mr.. Babcock is
the head is in sympathy with that organ
iZation. The pamphlet consists largely of
newspaper letters from Washington, which
profess TO give facts going to substantiats
the charges. Discussing the matter, Mr..
Babcock said:
"rhe story is made ont of whole cloth.
and this publication is but the climax of
numerous efforts that have been made TO
connect this committees with the A. p. A.
Many and varied efforts have been m ade
to find grounds for charging such connec-
tion. Men and women have called per-
sonally here at our headquarters asking
for the literature of this order, and when
we have replied that we had none for dis
tribution we have been appealed 10 to
know where it could be obtained. To this
we have responded that we did not know,
as we had no connection with either the
A. p. A. or any other order. We have
made the same reply to letters of the same
character.
''As a matter of fact" he added, "as
much as year ago / gave instructions to
the secretaries of the committees to avoid
all appearance of connection with any or
ganization, Of whatever kind or character,
except Republican committees. We have
talan the D0Sition that IL ia N Mt our hnci
ness to attempt to make platforms, and
have devoted ourselves to the distribution
of literature in accordance with the
former platforms and acknowledged doc
trines Of the Republican party. Hence
say again that the charges made In the
pamphlet which the Democratic committee
is preparing 10 distribute are entirely de-
void of truth"

MILES ON THE STRIKE.

of Rebellion

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-The annual re-
port of Major General Nelson A. Miles.
commanding the Department of the Mis-
souri,. showing the condition of affairs in
that department, is a remarkably shor.
document, considering the stormy period
of internal strife covered by it. But pot
withstanding its brevity it contains some
very terse and significant statements rela-
tive to the strike. On this point it SAYS
after reciting the work the military was
required to do:
All of these difficult duties have been
performed in a manner which shows
good judgment and discretion on the part
OF the officers and good state of discipline
and faithful service on the part of the
troops. and it is believed that but for their
promptinterveniion much bloodshed would
have resulted
The conduct OF the troops in restoring
order and confidence where mob violenee
and reign OF terror existed in Chicago
was marked by great forbearapce. forti-
tude and excellent discipline, and their
presence and action has very greatly con-
tributed to the maintenance of civil law
and, in my opinion, saved this country
from serious rebellion, when one had
been publicly declared to exist by the one
most responsible for its exis tence."

YET AFTER THE CUP.
Lord Dunraven Has a Boat on
the Stocks.
She has Been Designed by Watson
and Will Be Built in
Secret.

GoURICK. Scotland. Oct. 16.-It may now
be taken for granted that Designer Watson
has the lines all out for cup challenger,
and just now Henderson Patrick is pre-
pairing to see Lord Dunraven aud talk the
matter over with him.
On the most reliable authority the state
ment is made that Lord Dunrayen decided
that his first Valkyrie. which measured 70
feet on the waterliue-the ship with which
hs challenged three years ago-was hardly
large enough for his all-round purposes,
consequently his idea was to challenge
this year with an S0-f0oter. He held
strongly to this notion until little more
than a month ago, when he learned that
Fife had an order for boat over 80 feet,
and that James Gordon Bennett's new
boat would turn out to be 9o-footer. In
the later event he saw but little chance
for an 80-footer on the other side to win
the cup, and being bound by his own
precedent, which allowed all American
boats available for the defense of the cup
to be counted in. he wisely decided to go
to the limit length and build a 9O-fcoter,
thus asking no fayors Of the New York
yacht clubs as to length. In fact there are
many people who believe that Watson
himself prefers 90-footer to 70-footer.
The work on the boat will be CON-
menced Al once, aud the challenge may be
sent little ahead OF the officially re.
quired time. Watson will saw nothing
about his new order. except that she will
no doubt go across and try for the cup.
IL goes without question that as in the
case of the Thistle an attempt will be
made 10 build her in secret. In building a
90-footer Lord Dunraven has gone to the
limit of the new deed of Gift and consa

To-day the State of New York, IL the
election was to be passed upon by the
House. would cast its vote for a Dem ocrat
to occupy the Presidential chair. Nine
teen of its thirty-four votes are Demo-
cratic. A loss of two Con gressmen in this
State would give the vote in 1897 of the
State of New York to the Repu blicans for
President should the contingency arise in
which the election of that officer were
thrown into the House. For these reasons

election he will go to New York and vote
