Several reports were received,
among them being one from the po-
lice committee on the petition Of Gus

II pigs. 1t appears that owing to a
conflict in the city code, or rather
Misunderstanding on the part OF
the impounding officer, regarding one
of the sections, the pigs were not liza
ole to be impounded. The report
which was adopted, recommended that
the pigs be released without cost.

that the young couple are happy in
the thought that they are man and
wife, despite all efforts TO stop the
wedding.
The story of how the wedding was
stopped by a possesory warrant ap
peared in these columns a few days
ago. 1t Will be remembered that Green
appeared before Ordinary Dart and Sc
cured a license, giving the age of his
intended wife as IS. The father of
the girl soon arrived at the ordinary's
Office and stated that his daughter was
only 13 years of age, but the license
had been granted. The father, the or

together to think of some way to get

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 25.-The sensa-
tional story telegraphed yesterday from
Des Moines to several papers to the eff
feet that former Speaker D. b. Hen
derson is a physical and mental wreck,
that his memory has completely failed
and that at last his family, after close
ly guarding the matter, have been
obliged to admit that his health is as
stated, has met with a prompt and
vigorous denial from General Hender-
son, from his family and from his ply
stefan.
Don A. Henderson, a son of the dis

at Long Beach, to-day received con-
vincing kilograms TO the effect that the
Des Moines story is a canard. In one
of his kilograms General Henderson
says:
Sensational papers have started lies
about me. Absolutely false. Am in
perfect health
A second dispatch is as follows:
"Des Moines dispatch to papers a
baseless lie. Have no illness. Am in

STEADY DRIFT
TO ROOSEVELT
New York Herald Admits
That the Democratic Out
look Is Not Cheerful
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-The Herald
says: Surveying the political field in
the last week in September, these
things stand out with clearness:
New York State is doubtful and the
situation is complicated. Influenced by
it's first poll, the Republican State Com
mittee claims this State by 10000 for
Roosevelt and Fairbanks, but this poll
was conducted before the State NOM
nations were made and must be re-
vised. 1t is conceded by Republicans
as we'll as by Democrats that if the
election were held to-day the Demo-
cratic State ticket would be elected by
a large plurality.
, AS New York is the hub around
which the entire Democratic campaign
revolves, it is necessary to examine the
situation elsewhere with particular ref
erence to the events that have taken
place here.
Dispatches to the Herald from all of
the doubtful States agreed that the
Saratoga convention, which nominated
Judge Herrick, had encouraged Demo
Gratis in the doubtful States with the
exception of Rhode Island.
Careful inquiry among campaign
managers, however, shows that the
drift has been toward Roosevelt for
IIOlS llldH q cI1lu uHiSSS the
Democrats succeed in turning it toward
Parker the betting will continue until
the end of the campaign with the adds
III favor of Roosevelt,
This condition viii cause ~ parties
to watch closely the effect of Judge
Parker's letter of acceptance.
Parker is a believer in a short cam
paign. He thinks this election will be
won in the last three weeks of the
canvass. For that reason he deferred
bis letter of acceptance seven weeks
later than the letter Of Samuel ]. Til
den, whose fight was made on like is
sues Governor Tilden-s letter was
printed on August 3, 1876.
New York Democrats are confident
of carrying this State for both Parker
and Herrick Some of them look for
a plurality for the Albany Judge reach
ing toward 100, 900.
