DR., Everett.

They liked DR.. William Everett's
oratory very much at Indianapolis
They did this in Congress also when
he first essayed to speak in that BODY
The doctor unites the culture OF the
scholar and the impulsiveness OF the
man of genuine feeling in his public
addresses. He does not write them
ont and commit them to memory as
did his distinguished father, but relies
LARGELY upon the inspiration of the
moment 1t is sure to come to him if
the occasion is sufficiently important
His humor, too, is unique, and has
much of the impulsive quality. There
is what may be termed a fervid fun in
it. DR.. Everett is original in his ora
tory, and it is often illumined by his
culture. 1t would be difficult to point
to any public speaker on whom his adj
dresses are modelled. They belong to
the man, aud are largely affected by
his temperament, which gives them an
electric quality at times that stirs all
kinds of audiences. AS scholar In
politics he is sui generis.

THE MONTE TABOR TRAGEDY.
Captain and Mate Took Their Lives
When the Bark Struck.

PROVINCETOWN, Mass, Sept. 16.- 1t
is considered so suspicious that both the
captain and chief officer of the wrecked
Italian bark Monte Tabor should have com
mitted suicide that many think she was de-
liberately beached, to hide grave crime.
Three bodies have been found and brought
into town, but medical examiner Moore,
from casual examination, finds no indica-
tions of murder. and thinks it more likely
suicide, more particularly on the part of the
captain, who.probably took his life to atone
in a measure for the disgrace OF losing his
vessel.
Ths captains body has two bullet wounds,
one above and forward of the right ear, and
one back of the right eye. One OF the men
has cut reaching nearly from ear to ear
across the throat. The third man is badly
eaten by sea heas from the chin down on
the breast. so it is impossible to tell whether
there are any wounds or not.
Sheriff Whitcomb, at the request of the
Italian consul, will hold the rescued seamen
until the arrival of the United States Of
fl ers from Boston. The sailors not being
able to converse in English, it has thus far
been impossible to get at the bottom facts in
the case. The story which the sailors tell is
to the effect that the captain and mate killed
themselves as soon as the vessel struck.

BOSTON LETTER.
ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE. |
Cattle Shipments From Boston.

Cattle Shipments From Boston.
That Boston Is to become a port of
shipment for Canadian cattle is now
certain. On the assumption that at
least part of this trade should be
done via Boston the chamber of COM
merce has been for some time work
ing. 1t will be remembered that a
special delegation from that body went
to Washington last winter to
press the interests of Boston
upon the attention of the Sec
retary of agriculture, in whose
hands rests the power to grant permis-
sion for Canadian cattle to be trans
ported through our borders to Euro
pean steamers, under the existing
laws regarding the stamping out of
pleuro-pneumonia. The secretary
was seen; the case of the vast ship
ping interests of the port of Boston
laid before him, and his provisional
permission WAS granted.
But his permission was granted too
late for the shipment of Canadian cat
tie last season, since it came only a
short time previous to the breaking
up of the ice in the St. Lawrence river
the great volume of the cattle ship
ments from the provinces in the sum
mer season always being done vie that
river, with its extensive ports at Mon.
treal and Quebec. But during the
winter season, when the most of the
cattle shipping is done, other ports
have heretofore had the trade, to our
disadvantage, through the loss of
steamers that would have come here
if cargoes of cattle were to be OBJ
tanned.
Now the first lot of Canadian cattle
to go to Europe via Boston has been
engaged-about 3, 600 head for Octo-
Der shipment. Tue Boston ~ Maine
railroad began the construction of the
special quarantine and inspection
sheds required in the provisional per-
mission from the secretary of agricul-
ture at Mystic wharf last week, and they
will be rapidly pushed to completion
That the extensive cattle shipping
promised cannot but be of great advan-
tage to Boston and the railways and
steamship lines centering here is plain
to every merchant aud business man
who has looked into the matter of our
waning ocean trade. Too much credit
cannot be given the chamber of COM
merce for what it has done in the mat
ter.

Kinley and Hobart by $4,000 majority.
"The republican vote will exceed by sew
eral thousands the largest republican vote
heretofore given. and the vote given the
democratic candidate for governor is the
smallest democratic vote ever east with one
single exception, and that is the vote oflS94,
which was only 5000 less.
We have kept pace with Vermont, and
proven to the country that the democratic
platform adopted at Chicago will not prevail
when met by argument and reason. We have
been aided in this great cOntest by many
democrats, who placed country above party,
who believed that yOr could not divide the
people into parties on a question Of simple

PORTLAND, Me-. Sept 14-Hon. M. P.
Frank, the democratic candidate for gov

suit of the ele IN:
"The democratic party of Maine had
adopted platform which proved to be in
direct opposition to the Chicago platform on
the currency issue and nominated a candi-
date for governor upon that platform.
.'The dissatisfaction created in the party
by the change and the disorganized condi-
ton of the party enabled the republicans
with their thorough organization and the
unlimited means at their command, while
the democrats were without funds to pay
even the absolutely necessary expenses Of
the campaign, to make the gain they have
over their vote Of "a.

DEPENDS ON THE ELECTION.
Great Employers of Labor Can't Tell
What to Do TIL Ii Is Settled

CHICAGO. ILL.,, Sept. l5-The force at
the great Pullman car works will be re-
duced by l, 500 men by Oct. /, in consequence
of the falling of of the demand for ears by
railroad companies, which are spending as
little money as possible. Nearly $500 men
are employed in Pullman, and Of the re-
naming 900 the majority will be kept busy
for possibly 80 days.
After that no one in authority is sure what
will happen. Should a popocrat!c national
ticket be elected, the prospects are that all
the employees, except those at work in the
repair shops, will be laid off.
