Ex-Attorney General Harmon Replies to
Crlticisns Ia Statement.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 29.-Ex-Attorney
General Harmon publishes today a
signed statement in reply to recent
criticisms regarding the proposed sale
of the Union Pacific railroad. He re-.
views the action taken by MIR. Olney
and himself and what was done under
the Cleveland administration. He says
the statement that the foreclosure of
the GOV eminent lien on the main line
and of that on the Kansas line should
have been in single suit and that pos
sible loss by breaking up the unity of
the property might have been avoided
by atter.ord onsolidating the several
suits is wholly unfounded.
AS the property is in seven different
states and judicial districts a separate
suit had to be brought in each. The
disa vantages of this to the government
was Plain from the start. Accordingly
Mr. lucy and himsei urged congress
TO provist for foreclosure of all the
GO eminent liens in a single court, but
the bills prepared for that purpose
failed to pass.

and 10 Zoo bail Teams
PRINCETON, n. j., Oct. ga son
was born to the household Of Grover
Cleveland, the former president of the
United States, at noon yesterday. 1t is
said that the newcomer resembles his
parents in points of good health, but
neither Mr.. Cleveland nor the three
family physicians will say anything in
regard to the newcomer, other than he
boy. All daY Mr.. Cleveland has re-
ceived at his home callers who wished
to pay their respects to him in honor of
the occasion.
Some have congratulated the ex- presi-
dent 2 9soually, but many preferred to
leave t cir cares with congratulations
and bcsr wishes for mother and son.
A 60. n!any telegrams of congratula-
ton wete received. Among the first
to protfer congrid ulations by wire were
Joseph Je ersoM, E. @. Benedict, for
mer Secretary Thurber and former Sec
Rotary Carlisle.
Princeton undergraduates have taken
great interest III the new Princeton
ian. The fact that a Cleveland heir
was born was announced during the
varsity practice yesterday afternoon.
There was large gathering of under
graduates on the field watching the
varsity and scrub teams practice.
When the announcement was made,
three Princeton cheers we're given for
the boy, tree Tor the mother and three
more for the father. 1t is probable that
the undergrad will serenade
former President Cleveland and his
heir at some future date. On the col
lege bulletin board III front of Reunion
hall was posted this notice;
"Grover cleveland, Jr., arrived to-
day at y o'clock. Win enter Princeton

cheer was given, and the man who
called for them thought he would try
again. In very loud voice he called
again for three cheers for Richard
Croker. There was feeble response
this time. but the cheers were drowned
by Kissing
Croker heard the expressions of dis
approval for himself and he retired to q
seat far back on the stage
Richard Croker and Mayor Harrison
left before the meeting ended.
At the MONDAY George meeting the
principal address was made by John 4.
White a singletax advocate of Chicago
and Populist candidate for congress at
the last election. Mr. White spoke of
Mayor Harrison of Chicago as the man
who "by the grace of God and his faith
er's death is the mayor of Chicago"
and contended that Mayor Harrison did
not represent the Democracy of the
west or of Chicago. He declared that
Mayor Harrison had betrayed the men
who elected him, and that he ran as a
traitor and sold out to the ''gold bugs
and monopolists as soon as elected.
Henry George is supplying the
greater part of the 'ginger" that is
being consumed in the municipal cam
paign. His allegations touching the
Integrity of the recognized chiefs of
both the leading parties are exciting
wide interest, though they are met by
those most directly concerned with a
showing of indifference. The most spe-
cific of Mr.. Georges allegations are
that Roger A. Pryor paid Richard
Croker $15, 600 for the judgeship he
now holds; that S22, 900 was paid for
seat upon the bench for Judge Ingra-
ham and that other judicial offices were
made the object of barter by the So
called political bosses. The judges deny
it.
If George is doing great deal of
talking, so are Tracy and Low, though
the latter are less sensational and per-
sonal in their utterances. The only ex-
ception to the rule of volubllity among
the mayoralty candidates is Van Wyck.
whose ''star" speech. delivered before
the Independence Hall Democracy. was
limited to 30 words of commonplace
acknowledgement of hearty greeting
In the event of the defeat of Seta
Low, it will not be possible. in the light
of the statement given out by the Citl-
zens' Union Treasurer J. Kennedy Tod
to allege that the failure of the non
partisan movement was the result of
inadequate financial support. More
money has been contributed than
needed, said to be about $1,00O,000
altogether.

Cnha NerN Plem.ing.

Cuba VERY Pleasing.
WasrfvaTnx. Oct. 29.-The Spanish
reply to Minister Woodford's note con-
corning Cuba was laid before the cabi-
net at the regular meeting today. 1t
may be stated positively that the ad.
miiiistration regards the note so far as
its tenor is revealed by the abstract
cabled by Mr.. Woodford as being con-
ciliatory and as not calculated to breed
an issue.
1t can also be stated that qualification
Is felt that the answer was forthcom-
ing within SO short ii period OF time
after the delivery of Mr6W oodford's
note, having regard TO tks interven-
ton of the Spanish cabinet crisis and

by the new cabinet towards correc.
ton of some of the evils of which we
complain in Cuba are regarded as an
earnest of the intention of the Spanish
government to faithfully carry out the
entire reform program, and if there
should be speedy elevation of the
frightful condition of the unfortunate
reconcentradoes in Cuba through a
prompt revocation of Weyler's concern
tration order, it is felt that our govern
ment will have little further to ask.

The Torpedo Fleet Worthless During the
War Through Negligence.
ATHENS, Oct. 2S.-A profound sensa.
ton has been caused here by a naval
scandal of formidable dimensions. 1t
has Just been ascertained that all the
cartriG ges fitted TO the torpedoes during
the war between Greece and Turkey
Were not provided with percussion caps
and Illuminating mercury Hence, If
the torpedoes had been wanted they
would have been perfectly harmless.
The committee of investigation,
which was appointed to enquire into
the matter, has already decided that
two officers, Rastopoulo and Anastasia,
must be tried by courtmartial on the
charge of culpable negligence.
The anti dynastic newspapers are
making violent attacks upon Prince
George of Greece, who was the com
mander of the torpedo fotilla. The
prince, who was great favorite with
the masses previous to the war, is
deeply effected by these attacks.
The other day volunteers, while hun-
cry, raided the shops in Athens, causing

night were at Mt. Vernon Newark and
Shawnee, and We're all largely at
tended. Mr.. Bryan discussed the silver
question at all his meetings and also
reviewed the records of President Nc
Kinley ana Senator Hanna He said
the first six months of tle Mckinley
administration were the most disastrous
in the history of the country. de
charged Senator Hanna with hostility
to labor interests and also with being
the chic. conspirator in the presidential
campaign OF last year, when the result
was due TO :he twin agents of fraud
and coercion md traceable to the
money powers of this and other coun.
tries.
He said 1.-The gold standard was
conceived in avarice, fastened upon the
people by stealth, continued by fraud,
and its high priest was Hanna" Mr..
Bryan warned his hearers against
frauds in OHIO He said the Democr is
got as many votes in Ohio last Novem-
bar as expected, but the Republicans
got many more than there was any
reason to expect.
Senator Marcus A. Hanna was ten.
dered reception yesterday at noon by
the chamber Of commerce In this city
and in the afternoon given public re-
ception at the ST. Nicholas hotel.
He was banqueted last night by the
Republican committee. All of the Re-
publican clubs of the city turned out
to escort Senators Hanna and Burrows
to Music hall, where they addressed q
very large meeting. The seating ca
paeity of the hall is 5000. The stand
ing room was all occupied and large
outside overflow meeting was ad-
dressed by local speakers. The parade
of clubs was one of the largest ever
seen here and the demonstration was
unusually enthusiastic. Thomas Nc
Dougall, the intimate friend of Presi-
dent Mckinley, presided. and introduce
ing Senator Hanna eulogized him as
the great organizer and defender Of
Republican principles. Senator Hanna
expressed himself highly gratified with
the situation in Ohio and especially with
the interest manifested at the close of

SHERMAN ON ELECTION ISSUES:
He Especially Urges Support of the Re

He Especially Urges support of the Re-
publican Ticket In Ohio.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29-For the first
time since the beginning of the pres
emit campaign in Ohio, Secretary Sher-
man has published his views in the
shape of letter addressed to the edi-
tor of the Cincinnati Volksblatt, in an.
swer to request for his opinion. The
secretary expressed regret that he cam
not participate in the campaign, but
since the time of Jefferson, secretaries
of state have kept out Of politics, and
then says:
81 look upon the pending canvass in
Ohio as q retrial of the issues involved
in the election of 1896. State issues, if
any, do not seem to be the subject Of
debate. Naturally the first issue is now
whether the first administration of
William Mckinley is approved by the
people of Ohio. Upon this question
there ought to not be any difference of
opinion. His prompt calling together
the congress of the United States to
provide requisite revenue for the sup
port of the government and his recon-
| mendation of the prompt repeal of the
feeble ana indefensiblet tariff law known
as the Wilson'S orman law has met
with general approval. The revival of
all industries and the commencement
|. of prosperity in all parts of the United
States was the natural and necessary
result of the action of the president and
a Republican congress.
Secretary sherman then reviews past
tariff legislation and says:
ut is the declared purpose of the Re-
nm bllpan marty tO rpGtOra and maintain
the policy embodied in the Mckinley
tariff and the recent tariff act, known
as the Dingley tariff. 1t is unfortunate
that the beneficial provisions of the
latter act cannot be in full operation
for year or more, owing to excessive
importations under the Wilson German
act, but confidently believe that
within a year under the present la~
the revenue of the government will be-
ample to pay not only current expendi-
lures, bat a large sum i'll reduction OF
the pub debt. To secure this desira-
bic result the Republican party must
be sustained not only IN Ohio, but in
the United States.
Secretary Sherman argues against
the free coinage of silver and then
says:
aside from this important measure
that one of the most eminent citizens
of the state is now president of the
United States. He is especially emit
tied to your kind and considerable favor
and deserves praise for the careful Sc
lection and appointments of officers of
the United States. There has been
abrupt haste III making changes, while
from the nature OF things he could not
appoint all who apply for office, yet the
changes he did make met with and de
served the approval of the Republican
party. 1t is impossible for any execu-
tive officer charged with the duty of
appointment to meet the wishes OF all.
Many must be disappointed, but they
will al concede that they have had a
fair hearing for no president cou d
have given applicants more sind aHd
patient attention, nor could any press
dent have felt more keenly his l,a.-
