JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind, Oct. 21.-
Speth's Theater was crowded last evening
to hear the Hon. r. S. Taylor. of Fort
Wayne, discuss the political issues. A
noticeable feature was the presence of a
number Of Democrats. all of whom seemed
much interested. County Chairman Hobbs
was anxious TO have a large crowd greet
the distinguished visitor as his speech was
the formal opening of the campaign in this
county.
A number of representative Republicans
was present from all over the county and
the reports brought in by each were of the
most fiattering nature. The returns from
the thirty-day poll are such as to justify
confidence in the result. Clark county for
many years was solidly Democratic. but the
charm Was broken by the Republicans four
years ago and since then the county has
been gradually drifting into the Republican
ranks. The record made by Republican
county officials has been an excellent one
and the taxpayers, regardless of politics,
are satisfied.

Major Marchand,s Report.

PARIS. Oct. H.-Major Marchand's re-
port. telegraphed from Cairo, was received
during the night. 1t does not mention the
arrival at Fashoda of General Kitchener,
and only gives an account of the incidents
OF the expedition. with an elaborate descrip-
ton of the route followed. the points occu-
pied. the manner of occupation, the raising
of the flag. the force left at each point, and
the treaties of submission concluded with
the tribes. IN addition to referring to en-
counter with the Dervishes The report
only goes as far as the beginning of Sep
TENDER, and says that on Aug. 20 the sup
plies Of the party were abundant. The rea-
son for the omission of any mention of the
arrival of General Kitchener at Fashoda is
said TO be the fact that the report of Major
Marchand was not ready when Captain Bar

started from that place he did not think he

and that revictualing or the march was
very easy. 1t is believed in certain quarters
that Captain Baratier is the bearer of a re-

willing to trust upon the British telegraph
