GRAIN BLOCKADE.
II is Very Serious at Buffalo, New
York.

BUFFALO. N. Y. Nov. 16.-Drring
the past week there has been a more
or less serious blockade of grain at
this port, in bound vessels being delay
ed from three to four days before be-
ing unable 80 load at the elevators.
The cause is said to be the determf-
nation Of the railroads to shut the
canal route out Elevators having
grain connections are filled to their ut
most capacity. as also canal elevators,
although the latter are used only for
storage purposes. The situation has
been aggravated by the arrival of
large number of grain laden vessels.
which will not be able to reach their
elevators before Monday or Tuesday.
There is also big grain fleet on it's
way down and present prospects are
that with its arrival there viii be the
greatest blockade of grain laden yes-
sells this port has ever seen.
After today the various insurance
companies will not insure any grain
shipped by canal, which will have the
effect Of giving the entire CARRYING
business for the remainder OF the sea-
son to the railroads. This is evidently
what the railroads have had in view in
causing the present blockade.

THE THIRD TERM IDEA.
Campbell Does Not Believe Cleve-
land HarbOrs 1t.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-"I don't be-
lieve that Mr.. Cleveland has any more
idea of receiving a nomination for a
third term than he has of becoming the
queen of England"
This is the opinion expressed to a
World reporter by President Cleve-
lands friend, Ex-Governor James f.
Campbell, of Ohio who has just made
a fight to regain his state for the DEM
ocratS.
II think" he9 continued, chat Mr.
Cleveland is treating the success of
his candidacy for third term with
the contempt it deserves The idea is
too silly for him to deny. To deny that
he even dreams of such a. possibility Of
his being selected for a third term, is
to believe that he is bereft of his sens
es. The whole matter is too senseless
and absurd.
Neither he nor any other living
man could be elected to a third term
of the presidency of the United States
He would not carry a single precinct.
Whatever the president has been ac-
cused of, he has not been accused OF
lacking in common sense, and | think
he has too much of that quality to re-
gard this third term talk as meriting
anything but silent contempt on his
part"

CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-William FRANK
Huey claimed one of the fairest girls
of the state as his bride little more
than a year ago. She came of one of
the Oldest and wealthiest families of
Springfield and his family was scarce
ly less prominent in the same city.
They came to Chicago and lived hap
PLY together until week ago last
Thursday, on which day he disaD-
peared.
With a month-old baby the young
wife and mother awaited in anxiety
his return until yesterday, when she
despaired of her husbands coming.
and, weary and heartbroken, she re-
turned to Springfield. w. Coburn
Garrid, the secretary of the state
board of agriculture. who is bro
ther-in-law of Huey, brought her back
to the old home. which she had SO
shortly before left, happy bride.
Huey was conductor on the subur-
ban service Of the Illinois Central,
running to South Chicago. Thursday
of last week he left home, presumably
to take his run, and that is the last
seen of him by his friends or relatives.
On the day of his disappearance he
drew his salary, and as he is man
of temperate habits, it is feared he
met with foul play.

SEA AND SAIL,

LONDON. Nov. 16.-The Field this morn
ing says the feeling OF regret is as in
tense in America that the races for the
American cup produce nothing but bad
feeling and misunderstanding. ASbury' s
report after the Livonia, Columbia and
Sappho races produced a storm of indig-
nation in America just as Lord DunraV-
ems statement has produced anger in
times more recent, but then charges of
unfairness were formulated.
The article proceeds to argue that Lord
Dunraven has brought no charge against
the Defender syndicate and that the New
York Yacht club committee treated the
statements which he made too lightly at
the time of the races.
