SOME REASONS WHY THIS REPORT MAY NOT BE TRUE, ANY MORE THAN THE RUMOR THAT ORIG? WAS THE MILL CANDIDATR—THE RIND OF SPEAKER DEMOCRATS WaxT. ‘There is apparently som: in the statement that the “Cleveland influence” is going to be thrown in favor of Mr. Mills in the speakership fight. No speakership chndidate wants to involve himself in the contest over the presidential nomination in '92 while he is engaged in trying to get all the votes he can for himself in ‘a, whether they came from Cleveland or anti-Cleveland, Hill or anti-Hill Congressmen. No man who hopes to be the presidential can- didate of his party in 1892 isapt to pick out one of five or six candidates for the speaker- ship asa friend, making enemies of all the rest, who might justly resent his interference ins contest which does not particularly concern him. The several candidates for the speskersbip have been very careful not to commit them- selves on the question of the presidential ticket. An effort has been made, probably by the frionds of some of the rival candidates, to ppear that the Hill people were par- ticularly championing the cause of Mr. Crisp and that the Georgia candidate was s Hill man. The error of this is shown by the fact that some of his most earnest supporters are enthusiastic Cleveland men. He equally steong champions among both the Cleveland and the anti-Cleveland elements, because, it is claimed, that this fight has nothing at all to do with the presidential nomination and = would be fatal to the democ: party itis The success of the party or their o cons, it is urged, de pends largely ‘upon the se- lection of a Speaker of the next House who willbe prudentand wise, as wellas bold when occasion Tequires. The advocates of one candidate for the presidential nomination, as well as those of anofher should, it is argued, be interested in getting a Speaker who will’ so organize and manag louse during the next session as to help the A failure of the next House would the democratic nomination for the presidency blank drawing for any one; there- all factions, it is insisted, are interested ting the best Speaker possible without asking his views as to the national ticket. ‘The spoukership candidates have no views on that subject and claim that it would be an injury to their own cause and to the interests of Party for them to associate the two candidacies. All the candidates for the speakership have ‘supporters of all shades of opinion on the sub- Ject of the other question, or if there is one Who has not his chances of election are about slim as they can be. For a man to certainly protege of either Mr. Hill or of Mr. Cleveland would end all his prospects for being Speaker of the next House. AN EFFORT TO INJURE MR. MILLA’ CHANCES. It is probable—almost dertain—that the re- port that Cleveland has championed the cause of Mr. Mills is circulated for the purpose of injuring Mills’ chances, just se the attempt was made to injure Crisp by trying to get abroad the itapression that “Hill was championing him asan anti-Cleveland man. The relations of Mr. Mills and Mr. Cleveland havenot beensuch asto warrant the assumption that the latter would Milis above all the Mr. Mills and Mr. Cleveland agree on the tariff question, but #0 do all the other candidates, without exception, agree with Mr. Cleveland on that question. Between tho Texan and Mr. Cleveland there may be some rivalry as to which is leader in the crusade against high protection. Mills was one of the democratic leaders who denounced Cleveland as across between = democrat and a republi- can when the democratic politicians were fighting with their President over the spoils during the first part of hie term. There was some feeling between the two leaders President Cleveland failed to advocate tariff reform as promptly as was thought to be desirable. When Mr. Cleveland did send in his free-trade message it was the result of a conference between Carlisle, Scott and Fairchild, and not in recognition of Mr. Milis, though Mills had~ made tariff reform the work of his life in Congress and bis efforts to bring it about had antedated those of ull the rest, with the exception of Morrison, who was then out of Congress. It wae cur- rently understood, too, that Mr. Cleveland opposed Mr. Mills going st the head of the ways and means committee. Tr muy be that Mr. Cleveland thinks now that the election of Mr. Malis us 8) would in- sure the tariff question being kept to the front, ahead of silver and all other questions, but | ruk there ix no reason for thi that it would be subordinated by any of the other candidates. ‘MB. MULLS AMD THE SENATOUSEIP. But there is another feature of the situation which may go further than anything else to disprove the alleged taking up of Mills asa Cleveland candidate. That is that Mr. Mills may be no candidate at all. It was asserted on excellent authority not long ago that Mr. Mills thought of retiring from the contest so that he might have more time to devote to the campaign for the Texas Senatorship, which be is more in- terested in, but that his friends had dissuaded him and he would probably remain in the fight. ‘This was with the understanding that the cam- paignfor the Senate would not demand bis ynal attention. Now another complication The successor to Mr. Senate was appointed tion having of the legisia- ture. If the legislature had been in session there is said to be no doubt that Mr. Mills would have been chosen. It will be the duty of the legislature at its next meeting to elect « Senator. Ordinarily ere would be no meet- of the legislature for nearly two years yet; ht there isn demand for an oxtra seudlon. There an snti-slien land law, which was adopted as an experiment and whichis said to have proven 4 great disadvantage to the state; so much so that there isan ost universal demand for its repeal at once. So impationt are the peo for its repeal that y are not to wait for the regular session the _ legisla an extra session at once to prevent further bad results from the law. As Gov. Hogg wants his appointee to retain his place in Senate and w be re-elected for the I 5 or else give way to him (the governor), he is Jegislature together, but there is « chance that, the demand being v0 strong, he will not be able to resist it. in Geevent of aspecial session Mr. Mulls will have towetabout at once to look after his interests, aud to doso he will have to retire from the speakership contest. It will be impossible for Elm to run for the two at the same fime, and he would na have no desire to 20. ‘The Burial of Col. Tourtellotte. F f i i é f Mr. Spurgeon fald to Re Recovering—The Pritchard-Smith Match Postponed. Loxpox, July 27.—The report this morning from the bedside of Rev, Chas Spurgeon was that the sufferer is progressing toward re covery. The boxing match between Tod Pritchard and Jem Smith for $5,000, which was to have taken place this morning im the rooms of a club in this city, has been posyponed. It was found when the men came togetaer that Priteh- ard had more than the stipulated number of supporters (ten) prosont. ¥ backers | thereupon declined to allow the Sight to pro- TWO CENTS. SONS IN THE TREASURY. Mr. Nettleton is Not in It—Nor Dees Any Other OMmcial Appear to Ba ‘There appears to bea mistake in the story which has been published to the effect that Assistant Secretary Nettleton intends to resign because he was not permitted to appoint his on to the position of private secretary. Mr. Nettleton’s son is eight years old, altogether too young for the place. Mr. Nettleton, there- fore, is not in the complication over the ap- pointment of sons. The men involved in that are ‘Treasurer Nebecker and Assistant Secretary Crounse. Mr. Crounse appointed his son as his Private secretary. Mr. Nebecker made similar provision for his son. In each esse the Secretary refused to confirm the appointment. Then a brilliant idea oc- eurred to some one ir Crouse appointed Mr. Nebecker’s son and Mr. Nebecker appointed Mr. Crounse’s son. ‘This deal was not satisfac- tory to Mr. Foster and the two sons are still out, or at lenst are not drawing ng from the overnmont. It is not snppored that either ir, Nebecker or Mr. Crounse will resign in disappointment. Mr. Nettleton's friends say that he is not thinking of up place in the department, ough he is not so wedded to it that he wot sacrifice profitable private business interests to retain it. Atone time it was thought that pri- vate business interests would lead him to re- sign, but matters turned out differently, and at prevent he je pot giving the matter any thought ft the story of his alleged intention to resign related #0 disagreement between him snd Immigration Commissioner Owen. As far 9s Mr. Nettleton is concerned there is probably nothing very serious in that. Mr. Nettleton has had charge of immigration | 69% matters since he bas been in the department. Ivia said that Mr. Owen is somewhat pointed at finding that the authority of his In position is not as a8 he expected it to be, and that he does not like the ides of being sub- ordinate to the assistant secretary; but the mat- ter goes no further than that. —— THE PENSACOLA HEARD FROM. No Mention Made of the Rumored Accident to One of Her Boats. A cablegram was received at the Navy De- partment this morning announcing the ar- rival of the U. 8.8. Pensacola at Acapulco, Mexico, yesterday.

The details of the accident now being re- ceived from St. Mande show that the collision ‘was a most terrible affair.

The horrible shricke of the burning people and the cries of desperation and terror Uttered by the survivors who were engaged in ‘the work of rescue continued almost without interruption for half an hour after the col- Usion. Many of the unfortunate le imprisoned beneath the wreck of the ond cara were | drowned, while partly roasted, by the ficemen who were summoned to the scene. Forty min- utes elapsed before the firemen were able to obtain water, but when they did a0 they poured torrents upon the wreck and scemed to be totally unaware of the fact that they were drowning the people they were attempting to rescue. Today the town hall of St. Mande presents « fearful spectacle. The blackened bodies of the dead lie in rows upon the floor and upon tables in that building. "in some cases the remains are but little more than heaps of cinders, inter- mixed with portions of limbs or fragments of other parts of what were but # short time ago human beings, laughing, chatting and singing in jovial contentment. ne pile of charred limbsand buman cinders was especially conspicuous, as it consisted of a mass of unidentified and ‘unconnected bodies ins heap.
