CLEVELAND AGAINST IT.

Said to Oppose Third Party Scheme of
Democrats.
WASHINGTON Aug. 21.-President
| Cleveland will not support a second
Democratic ticket in this campaign. A
private dispatch from an authoritative
source, received at one of the political
headquarters in this city today, states
positively that President Cleveland has
written letter to ex-Congressman By
mum of Indianapolis, chairman Of the
executive committee of the gold Demo-
cratic party, in which he fully outlined
his views on the subject.
Mr.. Bynum has favored the nomina-
ton of a full ticket by the gold Demo-
cracy, and wrote to the President ask
ing his advice on the subject. In reply
the President simply favors the adOp-
ton of "a platform declaring for the gold
standard and denouncing the Chicago
platform, and would give such a move
ment his cordial support. But he ad-
vises strongly against the nomination
of Presidential ticket by the conven-
tion. Such action, he says, would be
unwise and unpatriotic in every point
of view and he would not support the
ticket, no matter what names might be
selected to head it.
He warns Mr.. Bynum that the defeat
of the free silver movement is the main
object to be borne in mind in this cam
paign, and the gold Democrats should
be left free to vote for ticket which
compelled to throw their votes away
upon hopeless cause.

LONDON, Aug. 23.-A dispatch to
the Central News from Buluwayo con-

British forces, and it is believed here
that the war is ended.
LONDON, Aug. 24.-According to a
special dispatch from Buluwayo, receiv-
ed by the London papers, the Matabele
chiefs promised not to fight the English
forces, provided Cecil Rhodes would
agree to remain in the country and
care for them. They also asked for the
removal of a prominent Government
official, whose conduct they complained
of bitterly.
Cecil Rhodes replied, telling them the
official complained of had already left
the Government service. He then asked
the chiefs whether they were for peace
or war. Secumbo, the leading chief,
laid his gun and assegai before Mr..
Rhodes and signified that they were in
favor of peace. Cecil Rhodes promised
to spare their lives, but said that the
surrender must be unconditional.
At the conclusion of the conference
Secumbo cried: go in peace, my faith
er, greatest of chiefs!"
After describing the scene Cecil
Rhodes is reported to have said: "It
was enough to make life worth living"
Two of the late chiefs were brothers
of Lobengula, the Matabele King, who
was said to haven killed at the close
of the Matabele war in 1894

ZANZIBAR, August 25.-Hamed bin
Thwain, Sultan of Zanzibar, is dead
He was born in 1856, and succeeded his
uncle, Sultan Seyyid Ali Beb Said on
the 5th of March, 1893. The Zanzibar
dominions became Independent in 1856
under the rule of Seyyid Majid, son of
Seyyid Said, Sultan of Muscat and Zan-
zibar. They have been under British
protectorate since November 10Th. The
late Sultan was invested with the in
sigma of G. c. S. D. in 1894 by w. B.
CracknaII, British Acting Consul-Gen-
eral. At the time he succeeded to the
throne an uncle, Kalid Parghash, was
rival claimant, but the British Gov
ernment favored Hamed bin Thwain.
Seyid Kalid has occupied the palace,
taking possession of that building i'm

Thwain became known. He proclaimed
himself Sultan and barricaded himself
in the palace with 700 armed Askaris.

Smith has formally given up the reins
of the Interior Department.
Political reasons only have caused
the break in the Presidents Cabinet
and it can be stated on high authority
that the personal relations between the

stated that in accepting the resignation
the President did so with extreme re-
luctance and regret.

Result of His Tour Regarded with In

LONDON, Aug. Ell Hung Chang
took special train for Southampton
today, where he embarked on the ST.
Paul for New York.
The results of Ii Hung Chang's tour
depend much upon his action when he
returns to Peking. His first step will
be to write a report of his travels for
the Emperor, and it is probable that
the Ambassador will then retire to pri-
vate life. His report will be distributed
broadcast throughout China, and Ii.
having retired, will be regarded as hav-
ing made his representations quite dis
interestedly.
If, however, he remains in public life,
many of the Chinese will consider his
suggestions as having been made for
the purpose of obtaining fresh power
and regaining his old position. The
Emperor of China is said to be favor
able to the extension of the railway
system of China, and it is felt that If LII
Hung Chang retires the Emperor will
act upon his suggestions and it is quite
possible that the railway extension will
be begun with foreign railway board,

Bryan Stops With New York Senator
During His Tour.
ALBANY, n. Y, Aug. 25.-The sec
ond day of William J. Bryan's trip west
ward from the seclusion of Red Hook
was an eventful one, crowded with in
cidents of travel, including pictur-
esque reception at summer hotel, a
stirring speech to a crowd of working
men at the town of Kingston, and Gull
minating in a great meeting at Albany,
where the candidate spoke to crowd
estimated at from 1000 to 10000 people,
packed in the City Hall Square, under
the shadows of the State House.
Before this demonstration Mr.. and
Mrs. Bryan sat down to dinner with
Senator Hill and prominent Albany
Democrats at the Senator's magnificent
home, known as Wolfert's Roost, to
which they were driven directly from
the depot, where a strong lunged crowd
came near mobbing them on their ar
rival
For nearly three hours Bryan was
the guest of the New York Senator,
and although every participant in the
dinner averred that it was purely So
cial affair, their descriptions were taken
with grain of salt, it being the general
impression that an understanding was
reached which will insure to Bryan the
support of the party organization in
the State.
