Under the circumstances il seems to

CleVeland's Endorsement.
Mr.. Cleveland's' candid endorsement
OF Judge Parker suggests a heretofore
unpublished incident in connection
with the selection of Mr.. Cleveland
as the Democratic candidate, the first
time he ran for President.
A number of Democratic leaders met
at the home of Samuel ]. Tilden, to
select a candidate to run against
Blaine, r. 1884. Among those attending
the conference We're Daniel Manning.
William c. Whitney, Senator German,
Ransom, of North Carolina; B. B.
Smalfey,o and Mr., eBranum of Connec-
ticut, then chairman of the Democratic
National Committee.
Various names were considered but
no agreement was reached. Finally
when the conference was about to
end. Mr.. Tilden, who had followed
closely what had been said in behalf
of the men, suggested, said he would
like to propose the name of a man,
who he thought could be elected.
In his feeble voice he added:
I'VE have a mayor down in Buff
falo Grover Cleveland, who is the
best vote-getter 1 ever knew. 1 am
confident that if we nominate him we
can elect him, but I want to say right
here that / will not vouch for what we
can do with him, if elected, for he has
a will of his own"

Of Feng Wang Cheng. which lasted
from the morning of May 81 until day
light May 80. Both sides suffered
severely. Detailed figures are lack
ing.
The engagement resulted in the Rus
slams retiring on the Simatszi, followed
closely by Japanese attachments. Three
companies of Japanese are reported to
have ambushed a patrol of the Merlin
sky regiment near Hunsian, wounding
three Cossacks. A fourth Cossack had
his horse killed under him. Fearing
capture he buried his rifle. He was
captured but subsequently escaped,
dug up his rifle and rejoined his regi-
ment.
Severe fighting is reported along the
railway between stations Nfangoy and
Vfandien. The Japanese suffered
heavily and would have been annihi-
lated had not infantry reserves come
up and forced the Russians to retire
into Vfangoy.

CLERK LIGHTS OUT;
HIS FIRM SUSPENDS.
Mum, Son & Co. Trusted Cameron,
but He Left Them short.


but He Left Them short.
New York, May 31.-The suspension
Of S. Mum, Son & Co. was announced
on the Cotton Exchange to-day. The
firm is one of the oldest in the cotton
trade in this city. The head book
keeper and cashier disappeared about
ten days ago, and the firm believes
that as soon as its accounts are
Strengthened out it will be able to re-
sumo.
At the office of the firm it was said
that Clarence F. Cameron. the Office
manager and head clerk, had been alb
sent for about a week. An examination
of the books so far made, it was added,
showed apparent discrepancies amount
ing to about $125,000.
The Mum firm is one of the most
conservative and respected in the cot
ton business. 1t is composed of Sam
uel G. Mum and H. Tileston Mum and
the estate of A. Goodwin Mum, Jr. The
firm had a Coffee Exchange member
ship, but had few open accounts there.
The following announcement from the
firm was read on the Cotton Exchange:
I'VE hereby announce to the MEM
bers of the Cotton Exchange that
through the absence of our head and
trusted clerk who has left his books
in n involved condition, we are obliged
to suspend We trust this suspension
will be only temporary
We would request all members of
the exchange having open contracts
with our firm to present the same to
us with accounts at once. We further
state that we have very few open con-
tracts on the New York Cotton Ex-
change and that these balance each
other"
August H. Skillen, the legal repre-
sentative of the firm, said that the Chi
cago Board of Trade accounts of the
suspended firm were badly tangled up.
A'week ago last Saturday, il was said.
Cameron left the office, saying that he
was going to Brooklyn, where his
baby was ill. Mrs. Cameron called at
the firms office this morning and told
the officials of the company that she
had not seen her husband since that
day. Cameron had been in the employ
of the company for fifteen years.
Members Of the firm of Mum & Co.,
say that their local cotton accounts are
all right. and have already been adj
justed, and that the property of the
firm improperly diverted was compare
lively small ana not nearly S1h0,00O.
Several claims to meet notes were
made some time ago by houses credit
or5 to the suspended firm, and in this
way it was discovered that something
vas wrong. and on examination of the
books the irregularities were disclosed.
S. Mum Son & Co., were members
of the Chicago Board of Trade. Their
principal trouble. they said this after
noon, was in the Chicago account. the
cotton and coffee losses being slight.
The cotton market was very little af-
fected by the suspension.

AGAIN THAT mo ARREST"
CLAIM is PRESENTED.
Argument Advanced for Education
of Negroes.


of Negroes.
Greenville, Pa, May 31.-The United
Presbyterian General Assembly heard
a statement of the Freedman's Mission
needs by j. w. Witherspoon, secretary
of the board. He denounced in I'M
measured terms the accusation that
the more the negro was educated the
more vicious he became and also the
statement that the establishment of
each mission school among the negroes
was an insult to the Southern white
people. In his experience, dating from
1874, he had not only met with uniform
courtesy but enthusiastic aid, moral
and financial. The records show that
no graduate of a United Presbyte-
rian school has ever been arrested.
BY an overwhelming vote of IT'S to
80 the assembly at the afternoon ses-
sion adopted with slight changes the
basis of the union proposed by the
Associate Reformed Presbyterian
Church of the South. Rev R. w.
Mcbride of Londonderry, o., and Rev
John A. Cotton, colored of Henderson,
N. c., opposed the holding in abey-
ance" the old clause referring to slav-
cry which the committee referred to
as belonging to social conditions which
no longer exist. DR.. Sankey of
Rochester,, N. Y, and Rev w. NJ.
Butler of Cadiz, o., supported the res
olution on the theory, that the war was
over and slavery was a dead issue.
The announcement of the vote was
greeted with applause.

THE JAPANESE NOW
OCCUPYING DALNY

Washington May 91.-The Japanese
legation to-day gave out a dispatch
from the home government at Toxic
embodying report from Gen. Oku,
as follows:
Gen. Oku, commanding the army
operating against Port Arthur, reports
that our troops occupied Dalny on May
30. Over one hundred warehouses and
barracks, besides telegraph offices and
railway station, were found uninjured.
Over 200 railway cars are
disable, but all small railway bridges in
the neighbrohood are destroyed All
dock piers, except the great pier which
was sunk, remain uninjured. Some
steam launches were also found sunk
at the mouth of the dock"
Toxic, May 81, p. m.-The Russians
evacuated Dalny so hastily that they
failed to destroy much property which
will prove highly valuable to the Jap
anese. 1t is evident that the Russians
fed quickly when Nanshan Hill was
lost, expecting that Gen. Oku would
Immediately take possession of Dalny.
All previous reports of the occupation
of the town were false.

HANGED CHINESE WHO
SIGNALLED THE JAPS.

London, June 1.-The correspondent
Of the Standard at the Japanese army

says
Repeated "Reminiscences show that
none of the enemys troops are within
fifteen miles of Feng Wang Cheng or
east of the Tayang river for thirty
miles in the direction of Stu Yen. Mo-
ten Ling pass may delay, but it can
not prevent the Japanese advance, as
the pass can be turned on either flank -
The Morning Posts correspondent at
Shanghai learns that the Russians
hanged a number of Chinese, who had
been caught signalling to the japanese
fleet near Vfadivostok
