A writer recalls two instances in whicn
the youthful Gladstone displayed charac-
teristic bravery in standing by his con-
victions. The first was at Eaton, where
it was the custom of the boys to torture
certain animals at the annual fair. One
day. when the crowd was making ready
for this cruel punishment, young Glad
stone flung himself into the MIDST Of the
company and declared that he would
make a mark in a good round hand on
the face'' of any boy who should dare TO
proceed. AT oxford a few years later,

NO BREAK KNOWN OF.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8, 1S9S.-So far as
the State Department knows there has
been no break in the peace. negotiations
in Paris, and if any difficulty had arisen,
officials say. it would certainly have been
reported promptly to the Department. It
it assumed, therefore, that there must be
some purely Internal reason for the post
ponement, perhaps the convenience of the
Commission. The advices that have
come to hand SO far are said to be rather
encouraging than the reverse, and there
is a disposition here to agree to the state
ment rather euriously made by the Span
ish Cabinet, yesterday, that there Will be
three or four more meetings Of the Joint
Commission. This is taken as an indi-
cation that the Spaniards themselves are
not looking for a break in the negotia-
tions but rather expect a peaceful con-
clusion in short time.
The foreign bondholders have at last
moved formally to protect their interests
in Cuba and Porto Rico. The initial
steps have been taken through the agency
of the French Embassy, which in this
case acts no longer as the representative
of the Spanish Government but for
French SUBJECTS. Through the Embassy
most formidable statement has been
presented to the State Department, being
an account of the various Spanish bonds
owned by French citizens chargeable
against the territories either seized or
set free by the act of the United States
Government. The sum total of these
bonds runs up far into the millions. Just
what it is expected shall be done with

Big Crowds Around the Polls But
Little Excitement.

The election is passing off quietly in
Hoboken. There are big crowds around
the polls, but little excitement. Up to
noon an unusually heavy vote was poll

ing out The police and the leaders OF
the Democratic party are keeping
sharp lookout for Republican repeaters.
It is known that the Republicans have
made dicker with fifty repeaters from
New York.
After last nights meeting at the Lyric
Theatre there is little doubt but what
Hoboken will give one of its old-time
najorities for the regular Democratic
ticket. Senator Daily will poll the full:
Democratic vote. A few Germans may
vote for Brautigam, but not enough to
seriously impair Allan l.. McDermott's

It Looks Like a Very Heavy
Vote in This State
Today.

Especial to 'sThe Jersey City News."l
NEWARK, Nov. s, 1S9S.--In the first two
hours, this morning, the voting went for
ward rapidly and quietly. Watchmen of
both parties were carefully watching the
votes owing to the counter charges of
colonization made by the party managers.
Both parties claim the city and Essex
county The workers say the vote for
the first two hours was without advan-
tage to either party.
The two political State headquarters
here, closed last night, and the leaders
have gone home to vote. Before going

candidate for Governor, and Elvin w.

claims but 5000 majority. Mr.. Crane
gives no figures.
Both parties claim to be assured of
carrying the Legislature The fight will
really be for control Of the Assembly.
The chances are for a heavy vote in the
State This is thought to be favorable to
Voorhees,. The Legislature will be
close, and the result may not be known
until the last ballot is counted The
Democrats will probably gain two or
three Congressman, thus equally divid-
ing the delegation Of eight.
The vote In Essex county was unusually
large during the forenoon. Both sides
are confident. The Republicans claimed
the weather would increase their vote in
the outlying districts of the county, and
that the chances favored their capturing

Reports received here at noon from diff
ferent parts of the State indicated that a
heavy vote was being polled and that the
election was progressing in an orderly
manner. No serious disturbances We're
reported from any source.
The rival campaign managers had most
" disappeared from this city to go 70
their homes to vote. There were, how
ever, a sufficient number of lieutenants on
guard here to watch the reports that
came in. The Republicans continued to
be confident, and the Democrats seem to
be satisfied with the way things were GO

PEACE TALK AT AN END?
Commissioners Inform French
Government That Confer
ences Are Suspended.
LEV cabIe 10 The Associated Pres. ]


PARIS, Nov. s, 1895. The spanish-Am-
erican Peace Commissioners have noti<
fled the Minister Of Foreign Affairs NJ
Delcasse, that the joint session which
was to have taken place today will not
be held and that they will notify the
Minister when they have determined up
on the date of another meeting.
Later, semi-oficial note was issued
announcing that the Peace Commissions
had informed the French Minister OF
Foreign Affairs that their conferences
We're suspended.
Inquiry developed the fact that the falls
ure to hold meeting of the Commits
sions today was only due to the Amer
leans asking for a postponement Of the
joint session until tomorrow, in order to
allow time for the translation of the re-
ply of the United States to the latest
Spanish propositions regarding the PHI

this morning.
