The Washington Post. an independ-

been friendly to Mckinley. has this
to say of the nominations: Mckinney
has attracted to himself a great num-
Der of warm friends. He is genial,
kindly, unassuming, good natured
and honest. We do not wonder that
he is generally beloved We are pre-
pared to see him supported by thou
sands merely on account of his per-
sonal attractions. He is held in re-
spect and confidence by men of every
party, and nobody doubts that, if
elected, he will make an honest, up
right and conservative chief magis-
trate. We congratulate the Repub-
lican party."-K. G. Journal.

THE TONY AGAIN LIBELLED.
Seized For n Claim of sI4,000 by nm
URderwriters' Association.


The Italian. bark Tony was libeled
yesterday in the United States court by
the Hamburg Underwriters Association
for s14,lS5S4. The vessel was attached last
night by Deputy Marshal Wilson and an
officer was placed on board. The libel was
filed by w. S. Chisholm. Esq, of Erwin,
duBignon & Chisholm, representing the
Underwriters Association.
The Tony was formerly the Aure-
lia owned by Lavarello in Genoa. Her
name was changed last June.
In January year ago, according to the
libel, the vessel sailed from New Y ork for
Penang and Singapore with cargo Of re-
fined petroleum, which was insured by the
Hamburg Underwriters Association. On
her voyage she encountered a storm and
put into port in Barbados, where the
cargo was sold and purchased by the YES
sells owner for SS029.72. The insurance
company paid the owner of the cargo its
full value and holds the bills of fading is
sued by the master of the vessel for the
cargo. The amount on the general aver
age contribution to which the vessel is
liable on account of loss and damage to
the cargo is alleged to be &c. 1852
The underwriters charge that after
repeated efforts to secure tire
net proceeds arising from the
sale of the cargo and the pay
ment of the vessels proportion of the gen.
eral average amounting in the aggregate
to $14, 1854 they have failed to obtain anv
settlement and in order TO enforce their
claim they determined to libel the vessel.
The Tony is consigned to Strachan &
Co., and is lying at the Savannah, Flor
ida and Western railway lower wharf.
loading rosin for Java.
When Marshal Wilson attached her last
night, the captain was not on board.
There was no trouble, however, and the
vessel was formally put in possession of
the officer.
The Tony is the vessel which was
libeled two weeks ago by /. and C. Moore
& Co of New York, for money borrowed
by the captain in behalf of the vessel be-
fore leaving New York for Penang and
Singapore a year ago. After the marshal
had served the libel, and had placed an
officer in charge, the crew drove him off
the vessel.
