FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1889. nening Star. TWO CENTS. MR. BLAINE AS CHAIRMAN. The Objection of the Chilian and Argen- tine Delegates to his Presiding. There is just this much truth in the story of the dissatisfaction among the foreign delegates at the selection of Mr. Blaine as president of the American international congress. The delegates from Chili and the Argentine Bepublic during the secret conference of the foreign delegates before the organisation of the congress raised objection to Mr. Blaine’s selection. They urged that he was not a mem- ber of the congress; that he had duties of state that would take up most of his time and that the congress meanwhile would be without a head. Some of the other delegates were in doubt about the matter, and half inclined to agree with the reasoning of these two delegations. The dis- cussion occupied the time of their conference during the first morning of their meeting. The next morning the question was resumed, end that night they talked the matter over until midnight, The preponderance of opinion was FAVORABLE TO MR. BLAINE, and the Argentine and Chilian delegctes were the only ones who made a positive opposition. It was finally decided that Mr. Blaine should be chosen resident of the congress, and that when he wi ab- sent the acting president should be chosen by putting the names of all the delegates on slips of paper and drawing one from a bat, This selection by chance would prevent any partiality in making the choice, and give every delegate, perhaps, a chance to preside at some time, WITHDREW FROM THE CONFERENCE. The Argentine and Chilian delegates were still not satisfied to vote for Mr. Blaine. They would not follow the decision of the other delegates, and they did not care to go into the congress at the organization and vote against him, so they withdrew and absented them- selves from the congress when the president was to be selected. The special delegate from Chili was not pres- ent, but the Chilian government was repre- sented by the Chilian minister at Washington. It is not thought that either the Argentine or the Chilian delegates wiil withdraw from the sessions of the congress; bug, having avoided voting for or against Mr. Blaine, they will let the matter drop. ; THE PRESIDENTS DESIRE, By report, that may or may not be reliable, it is learned that the reason for the selection of Mr. Blaine was that the Presi- dent did not desire the selection of Mr. Trescott because of his alleged associa- tion with the confederacy, and that if Mr, Blaine had not been chosen Mr. Trescott would have been. ‘The special delegate from Chili has just ar- rived by steamer and is to join the party at ton. THEY WENT ON THE EXCURSION, Two of the Argentine delegates went on the excursion, and there is apparently no reason to think that there is a disposition on their part to withdraw from the congress altogether. MISSISSIPP’S BOULANGER. How ex-Senator Brice Gets the Title— The Republican Campaign. Ex-Senator B. K. Bruce has returned from Mississippi, where he assisted in putting a re- publican state ticket in the field, where it has not been the custom to make any resistance to the election of a democratic governor. Since the convention he has been dubbed the Boulanger of Mississippi because of his having been a delegate from so many counties, He was elected delegate to the republean state convention from Warren county, where is situated Vicksburg, the largest commer- cial city; Hinds county, in which is the capital city, Jackson; and from Bolivia and Leake counties. Besides be- ing four delegates he was several other officers of the convention. He was elected both per- manent and temporary chairman. Upon his earnest advocacy the full state ticket was nomi- nated. THE ONLY COLORED MAN on the ticket was W. H. Mollison for secretary of state, who is a highly educated man and possesses considerable wealth, Twenty vears ago the democrats nominated a colored man for this office. There is no chance now fora fight on color line, Gen Chalmers was nominated for governor because of his being an ex-brigadier of the coufed- eracy and a democrat until 1883. The republi- on are going to fight for the election of their ticket. THE CRUISER BALTIMORE, Her Horse Power Not up to Require- ment—What Secretary Tracy Will Do. The official report of the trial board on the cruiser Baltimore relative to her recent trial run was received at the Navy depart- ment this morning. The board stated that the average horse power developed by the engines was 8,977.88, the requirement being 9,000, thus making a deficiency ot 22.12 powers, which would incur a penalty of $2.212. The screw made an average of 117.9 revolutions a minute, which, allowing 16 per cent slip, would give heran average speed of 19.6 knots an hour, A TRIAL WITH UNTESTED INDICATORS. The report states that during the run two of the indicators which had been thoroughly tested before the trial broke und) it was neceseary to substitute two others which had not been tested. On the re- cord of these indicators depended the record of the development of horse power. THE BUILDERS TO BE GIVEN ANOTHER CHANCE. Secretary Tracy, after reading the report this morning, decided to waive the question of acceptance of the vessel until he could hear from the Cramps, the contractors, as to whether or not they were willing to let the last trial stand as the final one. or pre- ferred to have another trial ran wita the indi- cators thoroughly tested. His deference in the matter is based on the accident to the in- dicators, The report shows that the ship made a wonderful speed, notwithstandin; the failure to develop 9.000 horse power, an the Secretary is inclined to look upon that achievement as eminently satisfactory. The allowance made for slip in calculating the specd is a large one. STREET RAILROAD PROBLEM. Telegrams to The Star. THE OHIO CAMPAIGN. The Armenian Troubles in Con- stantinople.

Foraker came to Columbus late last night for the purpose of arranging for a prompt and thorough investi- gation of Mr. Geo. Topp in connection with his letter to Contractor Campbell to increase the price of gravel to $1 and give him (Topp) ®@ drawback while he was a member of the board of affairs in Cinciunati, Gov. Foraker expresses the greatest confi- dence in the thorough honesty of Mr. Top and believes that the affairs of the board will prove this, It is now claimed that at the timo the letter was written Mr. Topp was wholly irresponsible and that a number of other let- tert are im existence that clearly establish this | fact. The republican morning papers publish a fac simile of what purports to be ex-Congress- man Campbell's subscription of $5.000 to the stock of the patent ballot box company. Gov. Foraker will make two speeches today and four tomorrow in the mining districts of the Hocking valley. The Obio campaign is growing more bitter every day and from this time forth it promises to be the most exciting in years. ———_—_ THE MONTANA ELECTION. A Democratic Governor Probable But | the Rest Republican. Mrrwearoris, Mixx., Oct. 4—The Journal's Helena special says: The situation this morning shows that Toole (dem.) probably elected governor.

This estimate is buscd on the latter returns. The legislature is undoubtedly repub- lican by-a large majority. VOORHEES AND GRAY. Their Rivalry May Efect the Legislative Campaign. Curcaco, Oct. 4.—A Tribune special from In- dianapolis says: The managing politicians of the democratic party in Indiana are afraid that the fight between Voorhees and Gray will be carried into the state campaign, and at a mect- ing of the executive committee to prepare for the contest it was ded that it was of the highest importance that the rival leaders should be commanded to avoid anything hke a contlict uutil after the members of the legisla- ture are elected. How it can be prevented. however, is not apparent, as both Voorhees and Gray are already hard at work endeavoring to secure the nomination of candidates of their choice. —s———_ AT WEST POINT. The South American Delegates See Some Good Riding. West Point, N. Y¥.. Oct. 4—The South American delegates complained of being cold as one by one they come out on the piazza of the hotel this morning and were in- stantly enveloped in the thick wet fog that hung over West Point and the river. The out- look for a pleasant day was anything but favor- able. But while the delegates and party were enjoying one of Crauston’s breakfasts a breeze sprung up and the fog disappeared, leaving blue sky and sunshine in ite place. Breakfast over, the members of the excursion party en- joyed a social chat while burning their havanas and watching the fog blow away. At 9 o’clock he party entered carriages and started on an inspection of the military academy, the gym- nasium, the lecture hall, riding bail, dormi- tories and other buildiugs being visited. The party was then driven to the parade ground where a cavalry drill was witnessed. Some of the movements were heartily ap- plauded, Exhibition of leaping on and off a running horse, cutting with a sabre, hanging from the side of a horse going at full speed, bareback riding. &c., were given. The riding exercises lasted over an hour. The delegation tendered their thanks to the commandant and ofticers of the academy for the attention shown them, and said that what they had seen during their visit was far beyond their expectations, Curriages were re-entered and the party was driven to the pier where boats were in waiting to convey the delegates on board the cruiser Yorktown, which iay at auchor in the stream. As soon us the party boarded the Yorktown the anchor was weighed, and with a parting salute the vessel started on the trip to New York. ——_-— THE HATFIELD-M’COY FEUD Broken Out Afresh ata Marriage Cere- mony—Bride and Groom Both Killed.

Loxnox, Oct. 4.—The decree issned by the Turkish government prohibiting the exit of Armenians from and the search- ing of the houses of Armeuians in the Turkish service suspected ef carrying on secret corre spondence with their countrymen abroad have had a disquieting influence upon <rmenians, who have hitherto been disposed to remain Passive in the hope that the persecutions of the perte would be of short duration, When, bow- ever, the house of Dadian Pasha, uuder seore- tary of state for foreign affairs, an Armenia® by birth, was visited mnd his trunks books, papers, clothing, &c., rigidly overhauled, with & view to the discovery of compromising docu- mente, the inquisitorial policy of the gevern- ment was ay reseuted.

THE MILITARY POLICE AUTBORITIES assert that their orders directed them to spare nobody in the course of their searches whose effects might reasonably be suspected of con- taiuing correspondence with outside Armen- ians.but they appeared to have gone much fur- ther than the original order conten:plated, with- out incurring the displeasure of their stperi- ors. Whether prior to the wholesale search of the houses of Armenians in Constantinople and the strict order of the government prohibiting them from leaving the city, there was any com- siderable correspondence between them and the agitators in the places of their birth is not definitely known, though it is not mm But it is now pretty certain that corres ence is indulged in b: *Xtent, and the wholesale dismissal of Armen- ian functionaries and their supersession by Mussulmaus contemplated by the goverment will increase the bitterness of the discontented ns at home are little if any better off than the Cretans and are really more to be pitied, as they are a much better class of escome than the turbulent islanders who are ing patted on the back by Greece, while the Turkish officials punish them for their temer+ ity or, where provocation is wantimg, gratui- tously practice the most inhuman crucities upon them. —— SENT BACK TO JAIL.

Herexa, Moyr., Oct. 4.—The figures 3, 7,77, the warning of vigilantes to hard cases, were chalked on street corners and printed in the evening papers yesterday. This call for a re- | turn to the methods of early days was occa- sioned by the discovery of four fires in as many houses yesterday morning im the heart of the | business section; all the tires were put out bee fore serious damage was done, and in each case it was found that rags had been saturated with oil and fired. The incendiaries are evi- dently the same gang who were in the north- western towns during the summer and to whom the big fire in Butte last Sunday is at- tributed. The city was patrolled by special police last night and if an incendiary is caught his chances for lynching are good, ;A BAD ACCIDENT REPORTED. A Railroad Collision and Several Lives Lost.
