In tho Plaindealer, Of October 18th
among other items beratinR Senator
Stewart the following was published
In it's columns:
Mr.. Cleveland referred to the ac-
ton OF Stewart in advocating the
measure that suspended the Inter-
State Commerce Act On the long and
shortsh haul as regards Nevada, and
Stewart may have some difficulty in
convincing the people of our State
that it is wise and polite to pay back
rates from Sacramento when it Laws
in his power to have cut down these
rates.
On the morning of October Doth,
the Reno Journal charged that had
grossly wronged you by publishing
statements that are false. Should
such be the truth, and ] have no
reason to doubt that it is, 90 one ca n
more sincerely regret it than myself
l did not write the article, but l can
not hold myself blameless for it's
publication, as l heard it hurriedly
read over before it was in type, but 1
failed to recognize III it anything
more serious than tumble of cam

However, strenuously l may op-
pose your re. election this year to the
United States Senate, believe me sir,
when l tell you. that I would not
publish maliciously one lie about
you if I knew it would defeat your
aspirations, and assuring you that

against you, allow me to subscribe
myself, very respectfully yours.

An emergency squadron has been sum moned from he coast guard battle ships Alexandra, BenhoW, Collingwood, Colossus, Rodney. the port guard bat t1eships Howe, Nile, Sanspareil, Thun- derer, and Trafalgar, and the training service hattleships Conqueror and Hero. These twelve, with full crews, ammunition, coal, and provisions aboard, are ready to put to sea, while the cruiser squadron is almost ready Aid 10 thsSe eleven torpedo gUnbOat5 and no fewer than twenty-four torpedo boat destroyers. This enormous force, however, is not specially concerned with the denfense of the channel, which is left to what is called divis- ion of the fleet reserve, the compost ton of which is never published. This is supposed always to be ready to mo bilize at forty-eight hours notice.
 To prepare the above ships for sea in so short time Of course the dock yards are worked at the highest pres sure. Officers, men. coal food and shell arc poured in, yet, although i'm mcdiately sent aboard. every yard of spacc and every bed is occupied. On Thursday there were 150,G0 offers and men at Davenport alone.
 The commanding officers Of the vol unteer artillery received the first mo- Utilization warning, for they would be the quickest to respond. and would man the coast and river batteries until the regular reserve arrived. At the war office there are bundles of tele- grams addressed to volunteer officers and postal cards addressed to men all ready to dispatch. The volunteers, al ready officially advised, have suffi- cie1t supply of warm clothing, and D. 000 seamen sen, from the naval depot were discharged, not, lent, which mears q long period CT service. It is expected that gunners will be sent with their bedding to man the eighty-ton gun turrets at Dover. The admiralty has ordered 200 siX-inch wire guns put in hand instantly at Sheffield Orders for 200 ,000 tons Cf SmokelesS coal have been distributed among seventeen Welsh firms Although the usual quarterly supplies were sent to Gib- raI.ar and Malta q few weeks ago, shiploads have just been dispatched, 800 tons of provisions to Malta alone. \ million pounds Of tobacco have been prepared at the chief yictualing yard, sixteen new hydraulic presses being added to handle it. Even a thousand flasks Of special wine fer administer ing the last sacrament have been is sued. This rough summary is sufH- cient to show the extraordinary scale of the British preparation for war. Never since Nelson's time have such efforts been made. Moreover, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach is an extremely penurious chancellor of the exchequer. Usually every penny for public pur- poses has to be wrung from him. Now millions are being poured out. What does it all mean?

ELECTION CONTESTS.
Democrats Want inc Second Ward
 Thrown Out.

The board Of supervisors is being ribbed up" in certain quar ,ers to throw out the vote Of the Second ward in which the republican ticket was given an average majority of about 100. Several pretexts have been urged upon which the vote might be thrown out One is that ticket other than the official ticket was used. and an- other that the ffty-yard limi. was not observed. As tC the ticket, it was provided by a democratic beard Of su- pervisCrs and the demOcra lie election officers were in q majority at the polls. The fifty-yard limit was not religiously observed either in the Second ward or any other ward in this city.
 But all this is something with which the board Of supervisors has ultimately mighty little to do. It is, of course, within the power Of the board to throw out the Second ward and all other precincts which gave re- publican majorities. but it is not within the power of the board of SUI pervisCrs to make is action stick. The board might proftably precipi- tate a contest for the final settlement of all the questions which have been raised in the Second ward. There 7 and the final adjudication o9 the Sec ond ward matter may as well be in volved in it without additional ex- pense. The republican candidates who can possibly be interested in a contest say that they are quite willing, and some of them quite determined that il shall take pIacs. All they want is that a construction shall be placed upon the will Of the voters and they claim to be able to show that l. was thwarted at least a score of times in the interest Of democratic candidates. For instance, in one ward a full re- publican ticket was found in which the voter had scratched out the name of one of the precinct officers and wrote in the name of another person who was not a candidate. The demo- cratic majority On the election board refused to count this ticket for any of the republican candidates, though the voter had plainly voted for them. This is only one Of many cases in which the republicans were invariably given the hot end of it.
 It has always been held in election contests and notably so in the Pima county cases two years ago, tha. bal lot was good if it conveyed the inten- tion O. the voter, and that ambiguity with reference to one CT more candi- dates did not necessarily viiate the whole ballot Those who watched the course Of events at Ihe polls III this city say that a contesc will certainly leave the democrats with nothing but a councilman, an assemblyman and superintendent of public instruction.

Never Since Nelson's Time Has There
 Been Such Naval Activity.

London Nov 1.-The magnitude of our naval preparations is probably not fully realized in America. In the first place, it should be understood that he presence of the channel squadron at
 Gibraltar ready for action is an omi- nous sign. In spite of it's name. this
 squadron has nothing to do with the channel. It is a- Gibraltar to prevent tha union of the French northern squadron from Brest with the southern squadron at Toulon, the British strat- egy be to crush these separately.

Paris, Nov. 2l.-The Spanish commits
sioners at noon to-day had not liked
upon a day to submit a final answer TO
the American propositions. but " Is
deemed most likely Saturday Will be
the day appointed. The opinion gains
ground the ~Spainiards will accept the
proposals of the United States. A sig
nifcant indication of this view Of the
situation was the remark dropped by
Senior Aberzurst of he Spanish COM
mission to-day that they expected to
remain here about q fortnight longer
The secretary OF the Spanish commits
son, Senior Ojeda, said to-day the In
structions from Madrid were not SUM-
GENTLY matured to enable them to ap-
point the next meeting.
The correspondent of the associated
press asked Aberzurst IL the commits
sion would be able to leave Paris next
week.
II suppose we shan be here for an
other fortnight"
why" the Spanish commissioner
was asked, lis the opinion expressed so
emphatically by a portion Of the Paris
press hat you will decline $40, 000. 600.
but will sign the treaty with a protest
hat you do so only under pressure OF
superior power?"
well. il does seem $40. 900, 900 is not
very satisfactory"
This In the s~emi-evasive manner in
which the Spanish diplomat answered
the question.
His questioner continued:
p Then II has been affirmed that Spain
will refuse to sign the treaty. decline
the powers and her commissioners will
go home. Is that the most likely re-
sult?"
"Ah, but we should not anticipate.
we should know day by day what hap
pens day by day."
The Petit Bleau reaffirms to-day as
certain that the Spanish will refuse the
American offer OF s20.0 600. 900 for a treaty
cession of the Philippines.
