A SLIM CHANCE.

New York, Aug. 11.-Chairman Dan
forth, of the Democratic committee,
has just returned from a trip through
counties in the interior of the state.
In an interview he said:
MY judgment is that most of the
counties up the staet will pass reso-
lutions reaffirming the Chicago plat
form.
Il cannot tell what position will be
taken by the members of the commit
tee in view of the natioaal platform
until after l confer with my col
leageus.
Il saw several of them while | was
absent from the city and they agreed
with me that no action should be ia
ken which would imperil the chance of
Democratic success in Greater New
York. They believe that the fight
for supremacy in this city should and
will receive Democratic support and
sympathy from all over the state, as
cat success here, there is no
chance for victory in the state"

Houghton. Mich. Aug. 11.-When
Senator Hanna was here some one
asked him if he intended leading the
Republican party again in the next
campaign. He replied:
That reminds me of a story told in
Ohio Some of the crack shots in a
certain town We're having turkey
shoot During the time the affair was
going on, seedy-looking individual
stepped up and asked to be allowed to
have a shot. He was given a rife
and took aim at Turkey showing its.
long neck out of a box, shut his eyes
firde, and off went the turkeys head.
The crowd was surprised and asked
him TO shoot again, but he refused
His only answer: No thanks, I'll quit
while my reputation is good
Mr. Hanna says he will do likewise.

Warm Reception" Etc.
Toronto, Ont, Ang. ia good deal

press and people receive the new min

1T is hardly necessary saws the

of Americans in the matter. The gov
eminent of Canada has already made
its reply and that reply is based on
action, not on words. A large force
of mounted police and two maxim
guns are now on the way to the Klon-
dixie country and if miners whom the
United States journals are melting to
revolt only make the attempt they will
perhaps meet with reception warm
er than they anticipated.
Surely it is time that the people
of this country and especially the par
ty in power, began to consider the re-

States from an entirely new stand
point. Hitherto the Liberal party has
regarded this people as a friendly

GENERALLY BELIEVED THAT
GOMEZ AND WEYLER
HAVE NET.
Thought To Have Exchanged Com
pliments On The Battlefield,
Which Resulted Disastrous
Iy For Herr MOSt'S
He'll Hound.


New York, Aug. ia special to the
Herald from Havana says:
Official information has reached Ha-
vana of decisive battle between loyal
troops and insurgents in Matanzas.
According to this information, the
Spanish troops were routed after a
hard battle, with heavy losses.
This news caused veritable sensa-
ton. in Havana as it is generally
known that Capt. Gen. Weyler is now
in Matanzas and there is belief that
the Spanish troops directly under him
were those who suffered defeat at the
hands of the rebels. However, if this
is true, the Sapish officials here are
taking great pains to suppress the
fact.
Then, too, the knowledge in some
quarters that Gen. Gomez is due in
Matanzas at about this time with a
large body of insurgents adds inter-
est to the situation.
While there is no good cause to be-
lieve that Gen. Weyler was in the
battle in question there has been for
sometime seemingly we'll founded
belief in Havana that Gen. Weyler
and Gen. Gomez would meet in Ma
tanZas.
The Spanish loss in troops and Off
GERS was probably greater than in any
recent battle The Spanish troops
were compelled to give way before the
rebels, leaving many dead on the
field.
There seems to be considerable con-
Germ in the palace here about the re-
suit of the battle. While the officials
will not talk, the Herald correspOn-
dent has learned that detIchments of
Cuban cavalry have been pouring in
TO Matanzas from Santa Clara pro-
vince, and according to some reports,
lajor General Garlic, commander of
the fourth army corps, and Brigadier
Generals Rego and MonteagudO are
among the leaders of the invading
forces. A concentration upon the
Santa Clara border, of all the insur-
gent force in Matanzas, was ordered
some days ago by Gen. Avellino ROSS,
the insurgent commander OF the pro-
vince.
In view of this rebel activity and
the belief at the palace that General
Gomez, or his lieutenant, Major Gen
eral GARLIC. would attempt to make
a demonstration against Havana City,
large achievements of Spanish troops
have been moved to the front from
Havana and Pinar del Rio provinces.
Weyler intended to establish |
his headquarters first in Matanzas
City and then in Guines, Havana pro-
vince. i'm case the Cubans should sue
ceed in pushing their way through |
MatanZas into Havana.
A rumor reached this city last night
hat railroad traffic had been stopped
IN almost all the lines running
through Matanzas province.
Excitement was added TO by a la
er report that General Weyler had or
Tered the Marquis de Ahumada, the
lcting governor general, to send as
arge force of troops as could be
spared to the vicinity of Guines, near
he border of Havana and Matanzas
A lot of artillery was ship
,ed last night to Guines. The present
of General Weyler is similar
o that of Martinez CampOs, when he
ried in December, 1895, to check the
amous raid of Gomez and MaceO,and
