SI4NCHFIELD and MICKEY.
Wtii Undoubtedly Head the Demo-
cratic Ticket In New York.

Saratoga, N Y, Sept 11.--John B.
Stanchfield will be nominated for gov
ernor by the democratic state conven-
tion tomorrow, and his name will be
presented to the convention by Judge
S. S. Taylor of Chemung.
Hon. William f. Mackey of Erie has
been offered second place upon the tick
ct and has agreed to give an answer to
whether he will accept before the con-
vention assemblies at II o'clock to-mor-
row morning. Mr. Macley will accept.
and the head of the state ticket will be
Stanchfield and Mackey This is the
ticket which seems most probable Of
final acceptance:
For governor, John B. Stanchfield of
Chemung; for lieutenant-governor Will
liam It. Mackey of Erie; for secretary
of state, John T. Norton of Rensselaer,;
for comptroller, Edwin A. Atwater of
Duchess; for attorney-general, George
NJ. Palmer of Schoharie; for treasurer,
Guy Fl. Clarke of Madison; for engineer
and surveyor, Russell A. Stewart Of
Onondaga.
Only an absolute breach of faith can
prevent the selection of the two at the
head of this ticket, and only the per-
sistent claims of upstate leaders will
upset the complete ticket.

MORRIsON SCORES POWERS.
Massacres Allowed Without Punish-
mcIt Russia is Predominant.

London Sept. 12-The Times pub
fishes this morning additional advices
from its Pekin correspondent, DR.. Nor
rison, under date of August 81.
THE censorship, which is under Sir
Alfred Gaselee's control, makes it diff
cult" says the correspondent, ito con-
vey a true picture OF the present sltua-
ton in Pekin. To-day the foreign
community was thrilled with horror at
the news of the massacre of the mis-
sionaries at Pao Ting Flu, who were
under the protection of the imperial
troops. Children were butchered before
the eyes of their parents. White wo-
men We're ravished and carried into
captivity Parents were tortured and
murdered. Massacres by Red Indians
never call in vain for vengeance Yet
the troops remain here inactive. Their
one thought and wish is to be given
work or to be recalled from Pekin.
Surely the civilized world will not suf-
fer this cruel massacre to remain un-
avenged and make no effort to ascer-

ers to-day are that 400 bodies have been
identified, 200 more are IN an impro-

and many more are thought to have
drifted out to sea and their identity
will not be known for weeks A tele-
from Adjutant General Scurry, who is
at Galveston, to the governor, is as fol-
lows:
Have just returned from Texas City
with several Galveston parties who as
sure me that conditions there beggar
description. Accounts have not been
exaggerated. One thousand lost is too
conservative. While a portion of the
provisions have been destroyed by wa
ter, there is sufficient on hand to re-
lieve immediate necessities The citi-
zens seem to have the situation well in
hand. United States troops and Com
pany C, volunteer guard, with citizens
patrol the streets to prevent looting.

urgent needs and l returned here to re-
port and ask for further instructions.
l respectfully suggest that the distress
is too great for the people of Galveston
even with the assistance of Houston, to
stand, and that a general appeal for
help would be welcomed. The estimate
of 1000 destitute does not seem to be
excessive"
From reports reaching the governor
this morning it will be necessary to CO.
operate with the federal troops to place
all the mainland opposite Galveston as
well as the island, under martial law.
If reports are true, thieves have be- |
gun to enter the city for the purpose
of pifering the bodies of the dead. The
governor has been informed that the. |
commander of the Texas troops has |
been ordered to Galveston by the fed

There is only one road operating to the |

Action of the Fair Haven g. WestvilIs
on the CenterviiIe Line-Hawthorne
avenue ut whitney Park the Dividing
| Lime ms to Fares.
A pleasing announcement to the host
of people who know already what a de-
lightful trolley ride it is from this city
to Centerville, and to the public in gem
eral, can be made this morning in the
fact that the Fair Haven and Westville
Railroad company has reduced the fare
on it's Centerville line to ten cents each
way, or twenty cents for the round trip.
Hitherto the fare has been thirty cents
for this trip. The trip to Centerville is
recognized by very many people as one
of the most delightful of all the trolley
rides out of this city, especially to all
who admire delightful and varied rural
scenery. This ride affords fine views of
East Rock the Sleeping Giant and 9TH
er mountains, and of fine farms and
pasture lands, to say nothing of ride
through one of the thickly settled parts
of one Of the old Connecticut towns
which yet retains in a great measure
Its old-time features and quaint old
time dwellings. The only objection to-
the ride has been the frequency Of the
visitations of the faithful conductor
with his call for Fare, please" and the
consequent interruption of the enjoy
ment of the passing landscapes by the
unpoetical business of fishing out nick
Got-
in passing out the shekels. The ride to
Centerville is perhaps most enjoya-
BILE when the cooler weather of the fall
succeeds the heated terms of the sum-
mer, and especially the boiling, heated
terms of the present second edition Of
summer which persists in lingering in
the lap of autumn. The ride in the fall
brings to view eloquently the glories of
autumn and all that the changing hues
of the leaves imply. And not alone to
the lovers of the aesthetic and the beau
tiful does the drop to ten cents appeal
with potency, for all the numerous
throng Of people who reside in or near
the section through which this line runs
and to whom the ride back and forth
to New Haven is a matter of more or

change with joy. The lower rate will
also conduce to the further building up
Of this suburban portion of Greater New
Haven
The new tariff went into effect at 524
o'clock yesterday afternoon, and the
out and in after that hour
had a very agreeable surprise and the
news of the change spread rapidly, and
Centerville and adjacent localities had
an abundant and very agreeable town
topic in consequence.
The divisions of the route as to the
fare are as follows: The passenger from
this city can ride for five cents to Haw-
thorn avenue, Whitney Park, which is
from half to quarters of a mile
beyond the second bridge" and for five
cents more from that point to the end
IF the line, Which is near Mount Car
mel. Returning, the fare is five cents
from the Mount Carmel end to Haw-
horn avenue and five cents from that
point to the city.

IT1LIIN CONSUL RECALLED.
Charged with Knowing of the Plot to
XIII King Humbert.

New York, Sept. lit was announc-
ed yesterday that a telegram had been
received from Rome making known the
recall of Chevalier Branchi, the Italian
consul general of New York. He had
charge of the surveillance of anarchists
and it is rapo,ted that his government
held him responsible for failing to re-
port the departure of Bresci, the assas-
sin of King Humbert of Italy
An Italian newspaper, published in
this city, alleged that Chevalier Branchi
knew as early as May 16 of the conspir-
acy against the life of King Humbert
and was aware that Bresci had been
chosen by lot to kill him. The paper al
so stated that a letter was addressed to
Chevalier Branchi, revealing the plot,
bu tthe consul professed not to have re-
ceiVed it.
