Grover Cleveland proven himself. and
Secretary Carlisle is like unto him. They
have shown that they stand for the funda-

of the Democratic party, viz: the preser-

of course Harvey knows that one thing is
as good as another-and a good deal bet

When the amount of money in the world
is increased to such a vast amount, it will

THE impression that the Reed boom had
sought the solitude of a darkened corner
to think the thing over, is dispelled. The
Republicans of the Old Bay state trotted
It out Friday during their state convention
and celebrated its existence with an en-
shusia,m that was indecorous. The SUD-
position that the shadow of Mckinley had
even invaded New England in its
strongest part is thus seen to be erroneous.
The platform of the Massachusetts Re.
publicans is similar to their platforms
elsewhere, 1t is full with the champion
ship of ideas that the party failed to put
into practice during all the time they en-.
5oyed full control of the government. The
call for American ships in which to carry
American trade sounds like irony, coming
from party that practically legislated
American ships off the seas, and that advo-
Gates tariff policy that would, if carried
cut logically, leave no American trade for
the ships Of any country to carry.

PARIS HAS 44RRIVED.
The Big Liner Limped Into Southampton
 Yesterday.

yesterday.
 Southampton, Oct 18-The American liner Paris, from New York, October z, starboard engine disabled, arrived here at a quarter-past nine o'clock this morning. As soon as she was in her dock she was boarded by representa- tive of the United Associated Presses. who interviewed Captain Watkins as to the accident that befel the engine. Captain Watkins said that the accident occurred at $40 o'clock on the morning of October 8. The starboard shaft broke in the tube at 8 point about fifty feet from the propellor. The vessel was at once stopped and remained stationary for an hour. After close internal and external examination had been made it was decided not to turn back for New York, but to proceed for Southampton under the port engine.
 The Paris was then 453 miles from New York. At :50 in the afternoon of the day the accident occurred the steamer Teutonic, bound east, passed the Paris. Later the steamer Fuerst Bismarck, bound for New York, sighted the Paris and went alongside of her. The Fuerst Bismarck offered to take the Paris in tow, but the offer was de- clined. During the trip the Paris spoke about twenty other vessels. No at- tempt to patch up the break could be made, owing to it's position, and the Paris completed her passage under her port screw.
 She averaged 121a knots per hour, and would have made much better time had she not been compelled to drag her starboard screw, which materially re- tarded her progress. Nevertheless she covered the course without hitch. On Friday the passengers met in the sa- loon and presented testimonial to the captain and chief engineer. During the passage the weather was rough, but no anxiety was felt except on Wednesday last, when heavy gale prevailed.
 Happily, the weather was fine on the day of the mishap.

SOCIALISM TN GERMANY.
It is Losing Its Old Cumulative Force
 Through Internal Dissensions.

| | Berlin, Oct. 1S.-The proceedings of
 last weeks sittings of the socialist ! congress at Sieblichen, near Gotha,
 leaves the impression that socialism is | losing something of its external com- | bative force and increasing in the ele- l ments of internal conflict, though the | tainly obtained the usual marks of ap- | proval. A quarter of century ago Gotha was the scene of a. contest be- tween the MarXists and the Lassellists, | out of which issued the program which has since been held up as a sort of con- fession of faith, and the German creed of socialism became an establishes pro- cess.
 The internal differences of the party began to develop under the rule of that triumvirate of dictators, Herren Singer, Bebel and Liebrecht, while the rule was vigorously disputed in the congress. Herr Liebknecht complained of the in- terference of the Ruder proletarians in
 the management of the party, and said that as soon as the academically train ed bourgeoisie adopted solcialism and
 began to give valuable intellectual or
 material assistance to the party they were immediately clubbed down by oth-' CTS who had risen from the ranks of the proletariat.
 In resenting this sort of dictation to the leaders on the part of the proleta- rian members of the party Herr Liebk- necht completely ignored his old-time songs of praise over the "dictation of the proletariats,'' which he once re- garded as party plank, at least to the extent of obtaining recruits to the ranks of the party, and his attention was called to his evident change of views. The next notable feature of the congress was the contest of the south German socialists with the central bosses in Berlin. Herr Vollmar, the south German leader, is still too i'll to take active part in the affairs of the party, but he sent potent representa- tives to the, congress in Herr Grillen- berger and others to defend the agra rian propaganda which is now burn ing question in southern Germany
 In the course of the debates Herr Liebknecht found occasion to deprecate the differences which had arisen within the party in regard to the value of mod ern art and literature as compared with the works to which the proletariats are accustomed to give their approval A majority of the delegates became indig- nant over naturalism in art as portray ed in the Neue Zeitung. the literary revenue of the socialist party. Herr Steiger, the editor of the Neue zeitung, made a strong speech in defence of nat uralism as contributing to the eleva- tion of the ideas of the proletariats. An uproar ensued in which the speaker was booted down, and some of the del- egates made allusions to naturalism as swinish and used other and worse ex- pressions, few of them unfit for pub- lication. These demonstrations effec- lively disprove the suspicion that Ger man socialism is in any way sympa- thetic, with pornographic realism.

ABOUND THE woR1D IN 30 DArs.
Prince Hilkoff of Russia Talks About Our
 Railroads.

Niagara Falls, Oct. 1S.-Prince Mi chael Hilkoff, imperial minister of ways and commerce of Russia, arrived here tonight from New York. The prince says that Russia has made great strides in railway building in recent years, and will astound the world when the work contemplated for the near fu- ture is completed. Prince Hilkoff' S head is full of great schemes for the advancement of Russias railroad in- terests. Railroads of his country are now operated under the continental system, but it is proposed to substitute the American.
 When the plans now under way are carried out and the great trans Siberi- an railroad completed Prince Hinkoff declares that Russia will have made it possible to travel around the world in a little over thirty days. This will be accomplished in this way, modern fast ships and trains being considered: New York to Bremen, seven days by steam CT; Bremen to St Petersburg, one and oHe-HaH ddyS py rdli St, TelefspurS to Vladiverta, thirty miles an hour, by rail, ten days; Vladiverta to San Fran cisco, via Hokodate Straits, by steam CT ten days; San Francisco to New York, by rail- four and one-half days thirty three days.
 The building of the new roads in Rus sia will open up hundreds of isolated agricultural sections. The cultivation of wheat and all possible products will be encouraged by the government, and everything will be done to improve the condition of the farmer Great reforms are to be introduced into the railway system of the country as a result of the imperial minister's visit to the United States. He is particularly impressed with our United States.

SOUTHERN CROSS ABANDONED.
Her Crew of Seven Men and Captain Res
 cued by Delaware.

| New York; Oct 1S.-Steamer Della | ware, arrived this afternoon from Hay 1 ii, picked up Captain Watts and seven men, the crew of the schooner Southern
 Cross, which was abandoned in sink ing condition on October 16 In latitude 321, longitude 75.52. The Southern Cross was bound from San Bias for
 New York with a cargo of cocoanuts On October 10 a ahurricanestruck the ves- sel and hove her down on her beam ends and it was found necessary. to cut
 away the foremast in order to right her. The rigging in falling dragged with it the maintopmast and broke off the mainmast below the trees. The schooner righted, but 1t was found that the rudder was broken and some of the seams had started, as she was leaking. On October 12 she was spoken by steamer Austral, but it seemed pos sible then to save the ship and as- sistance was declined. Afterwards the fopelessness of the situation was i'm pressed upon all hands and when the Delaware hove in sight on the morn- ing of the 16th she was signalled and Captain Watts and his crew rowed to her in their own boat. The Southern Cross was 134 tons burden and hailed from Halifax, N. s. She was supposed to be insured.

CHINESE HIGHBINDERs AoTITE.
Awaiting an Opportunity to Inagurate a
 Reign of Terror in San Francisco.

Awaiting an Opportunity to Inagurate a
 Reign of Terror in San Francisco.
 Chicago, Oct. 1S.-A special from San Francisco says:
 The highbinders of the Chinese col only are waiting for a relaxation of po- lice vigilance to inaugurate a reign of terror. The Chinatown police squad has been so largely increased of late that the highbinders are afraid to take any openly concerted action, but many murderoIs plans are said to be on foot as a result of the efforts of Flung Yung Hang, the Chinese consul, to break up the Zeyups, reputed to be the most lawless and desperate of the highbind- CTS cabals
 The president and vice president of the Four Companies, comprising the Zeyup society, are reported to be in hiding, having learned that their death warrants have been signed by the high binders.
 The highbinders accuse their officials of the treachery in having signed the treaty of peace with the officers of op- posing societies, pursuant to orders from the Chinese minister at Washing ton. The highbinders also charge their president with the embezzlement of Zeyup funds. The Chinese are fu- rious at the consul for the destruction of highbinders' rooms and josses. The [Zeyups yesterday obtained an injunc- tion from the superior court to prevent further consular demolition.
