Customs Salaries.

An item in an evening paper to the
effect that the salaries of the Custom
House inspectors and guards had been
reduced to $50 and $40 respectively is
thoroughly misleading. AS a matter
of fact the inspectors and guards have
been graded and the salaries fixed ac-
cording to the length and efficiency OF
service. By this system money is saved
to the Government and the men doing
their work in the most satisfactory
manner are rewarded by gradual in
crease in salary.

AS a combative argument against the NOM
ination of Grover Cleveland, Daniel q. Crit
fin, chairman of the New York delegation,
this morning displayed these kilograms, the
idea of which was conveyed in dispatches OF

telegram is dispatch sent early last night
by Mr. Griffin TO Mr.. Cleveland at Buzz

indianapolis. Sept ITO Hon. Grover
Cleveland: There has been manifested an
unmistakable desire upon the part of the
convention to nominate you for the presi-
dency. The New York delegation is anxious
to learn your personal wishes, and would
consider it an honor to vote for your NOM
nation. Daniel &. Griffin,
"Chairman.'
To which telegram Mr.. Cleveland, at late
hour, sent this brief but conclusive answer:
"Buzzards Bay, Mass, Sept. ITO Hon.
Daniel G. Griffin, Chairman New York dele
cation: My judgment and personal incina-
lions are so unalterably opposed that can
not for one moment entertain the sugges-
ton. "-Grover Cleveland"
Senator Palmer of Illinois this morning
refused formally to authorize the delegation
from his state to place his name before the
convention for the presidency. The dele
CATION had decided to make him it's candi-
date if he would consent to the use of his
name. This morning a committee of the
Illinois men waited upon the senator and
laid the situation before him. Senator
Palmer positively declined to permit his
name to be used.
The following cable message was re-
ceved to-day from Henry Watterson at
Geneva and sent to his friends of the Ken
lucky delegation Mr.. Haldeman My
name has been used without any authoriza-
ton or with my own. / am not a candi-
date. Gen. Buckner is my friend. If 1
was in the convention l would urge his
nomination"
When Gen. Buckner was shown this tel
egram he said that it was more gratifying
than the nomination itself.

WISCONSIN FUSION.

Get Together.


Get Together.
Milwaukee, Sept A plan of fusion was
agreed upon by the state organizations
Democratic, Populist and National Silver
held here to-day. The Democrats take the
offices of governor, attorney general, state
treasurer, railroad commissioner and super
intendent of public instruction. The Pop
ulists get secretary of state and insurance
commissioner, and the Silver party the
lieutenant governor. The Populists also
get three electors.
The Democrats nominated w. G. Silver
thorn or Wausaw for governor and adj
journed until tomorrow to complete the
ticket after listening to a speech of &C
ceptance by Mr.. Silverthorn. The Popuists
nominated Col. G. NJ. Butt of Vernon coun-
ty for secretary of state and Fred w. Thai
of Milwaukee for insurance commissioner.
The National Silver party named Ruble A.
Cote of Milwaukee for lieutenant governor
and claiming that the Populists had agreed
to make DR.. Frank Powell of La Crosse
the joint nominee for secretary of state.
the convention named Powell for that Of
fee. The Populist platform indorses the
ST. Louis platform and nominee and fol-
lows the line of the Omaha resolutions. The
National Silver platform is similar to the
st. Louis platform. The Democratic reso-
lutions indorse Bryan and Sewall, ignore
the Cleveland administration, declares for
free coinage of silver, says nothing regard
ing tariff and roundly scores Republican
