CLEVELAND'S WARNING
LETTER WRITTEN -FOUR YEARS AGO
THAT HAS MUCH SIGNIFICANCE.
At that Time the President Feared
the south Would Precipitate
the Ruin of His Party.

NEW ORLEANS. La, July 27.-The Pic
ayune's special from jackson. Miss. quotes
a letter written by President Cleveland on
May l, 1892, on the eve OF the Democratic
convention Of that year TO the late Judge
L. Q. c. Lamar. in which the President
discussing his probable candidacy, says:
Il can easily be disposed of either by the
selection of a candidate more available or
by the adoption of a campaign policy on
the financial question which / am not will
ing TO further. In the first case L shall be
await the announcement of a party defeat
which will be predetermined.
Our Southern friends, If they persist
will be left alone with their free coinage
heresy. The danger is that another South
ern idea and a charge of needlessness for
the public safety on the financial question
will doservice in the place OF the memories
of the civil war. The question is often and
justifiably put by friendly Southerners:
Can Cleveland carry New York? The ans
wer is raedy ss to Cleveland. orany other
the coinage question. AS one who loves his
country and believes that her interest is
bound up in Democratic supremacy. / am
most uncomfortable and unhappy in the
fear that the South will not see until too
late the danger of their marring sll. If
should read this ! hardly think l should
send it. but 1t goes laden with affection and
the most tender memories. Yours affection
ately.

BUZZARDS Bay GOSSIP.
President Said to Have Aged Since
His Last Visit.

BUZZARD'S BAY. July 2i--President
Cleveland shows signs of change. Time has
not dealt lightly with him the past eight
months. since his departure for the White
House. from Gray Gables last autumn. He
Is lighter in weight and the expression of
the face has, changed more markedly than
during any year of the past nine in which
he has been coming to the shore of Buz-
cards bay for his long summer respites.
The President has aged. and he shows it.
He i5 bit more careful about his personal
appearance. He appears to have learned
that gray clothing is most becoming color
for him to don. Black. which he long clung
to. made him appear more ponderous and
heavy. With a new style silk hat that has
not too wide brim. and attired in dull
gray he looks better groomed and younger
than when in black. and IL is noted that he
Is quick to catch the impulse of the crowd,
and to note whether its desire to see him
Is so keen formerly.
One thing is noticed in the Presidents
ly. He was never given to jewery wearing
and since his marriage he was oftener seen
about here with plain gold band wedding
ring only on his nnger- This year he wears
rather prominently upon his vest front a
large gold watch chain. The links are plain
and OF medium size. strong and solid ap-
pearing. ana the pendant is a large locket
of plain gold. nearly an inch long and two
thirds as broad. with sufficient room in
side to securely inclose a likeness of Mrs.
Cleveland and a group of his three children
on the opposite interior receptacle. This
might be taken as token OF his gold-bug
proclivites, but the honest viewer would
be compelled TO note that his plain black
silk umbrella. with its highly polished nat
ural wood handle. has a big mob of silver
on the end that makes good-sized hand
full TO his grasp. The proportion of silver
in that umbrella-handle knob to the gold
in his watch chain would be less than 10
to I. however.
The season Of early-surnmer fishing is
closing and the catches in the bay are not
so satisfactory they were through June.
Ii has been an exceptional year. the blue
fish caught numbering vastly more for any
year since Buzzards bay has acquired its
latterday fame The midsummer fishing
at the lakes which abound in Bourne. Ware
ham. Falmouth Plymouth Sandwich and
Marshpee townships is prime and attention
Is turning inland 10 these fayorite haunts
of the sportsmen now that the bay fishing
falters-
A favorite fishing ground of the Presi-
dents Is near the Indian settlement I'm
Marshpee at Wakeby lake. and he is like
ly TO go there soon. Bass are plentiful there
and he Is very fond OF bass fishing.

chairman of the national executive COM

retiring Populist executive committee made
a formal settlement with the new commit

THE FIGHT IN MICHIGAN.
Chicago Factions Carry Their Dis
agreements Home with Them.

DETROIT, Mich. July 27.-The Demo-
cratic State central committee will meet
here tomorrow afternoon and there are in
dications that the meeting will have about
it some features similar to those which dis
tinguished the gatherings of the Michigan
Democrats in Chicago during the national
convention. The silver wing of the COM
mittee seems determined to carry its vic
tory to the point of securing the chairman
ship of the committee which is TO be re-
linquished by Elliott G. Stevenson. but the
Sound-money men seem confident OF pre-
venting this. Mr.. Stevenson says positive
ly that Daniel j. Campau shall not succeed
him, although he does not know who
the new chairman will be. Mr.. Campau
was reelected Michigan member of the
national committee after Stevenson had
been selected by the first caucus of Michi-
gan members. 1t is not at all certain
that the silver men will be able to control
the action of the committee tomorrow. as
it's members were chosen by the same
Democratic State convention which select
ed the sound-money delegation TO Chicago,
enough of whom were unseated by the sill
verites to give white metal men majority
of the delegation. Leading silver men say
that if the committee meeting is not con-
trolled by the silver men the next State
convention will be asked 10 appoint new
committee.
