THE DEMOCRATI What They Say Reg: Last Night's Meeting in New York. New Yorx, July 21.—“Fatigued? Not a bit,”” said Mr. Cleveland, as he tripped down the stepe from Wim. C. Whitney's mansion,at 57th | street and 5th avenue at 10 o'clock this | morning and entered the carriage of the ex- Secretary of the Navy. Mr. Cleveland added | that he could not tell just how long he would remain in the city, but he may be here several days. - “That wase big crowd at the garden last night,” ne continued, “‘and ite enthusiasm was contagious. I think iti@a good forerunner of | the cam Twill be at the Fifth Avenue Hotel this forenoon to receive visitors who may desire to call upon me.” From tho Whitney mansion Mr. Cleveland was driven to tho Fifth Avenue Hotel, where rlor 88, on the first floor of the hotel, on the $d street corner, had been assigned for his ac- commodation. Among the first callers was Licut.Gov.Sheehan, Following the lieutenant governor came several members of the democratic national committee, among the number being Wm. F. Harrity of Pennsylvania, who was said to be almost certatn | to be chosen chairman of the national commit- tee at its mecting today. Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Whitney, Mr. Sheehan and Mr. Harrity were chatting together when Mr. came in, These gentlemen wore aloni for some time. It is understood that Mr. Bhechan represented in a measure the senti- mont of the New York faction and was there to express his opinion upon the eclection of a chairman, ‘Mr. Whitney said: “Mr. Cleveland is not here at any conference. Hes simply here to receive members of the national committee and other | CANDIDATES, gentlemen who desire to call upon him. Nearly | his all the members of the national and a great many of the democrats from other states who were at the Manhattan Club reception last night as well as local celebrities called at parlor 88 during the morning and shook Mr. Cieve- land’s hand and chatted about the campaign. Gen. Stevenson meanwhile was retei callers at his apartments in the Hoffman House. He said toa reporter that the exer- cises at Madison Square Garden andthe re- ception which followed at the Manhattan Club not tired him to any extent. “I had no idea,” said he, t demon- stration would be so enthusiastic. Mr. Cleve- land’s popularity is unbounded, and the chances arc. in my opinion, that if’ he were to ‘appear at Madixon Square Garden ggain for a second notification the crowd wotld be just as great and just as enthusiastic.” Mrs. Cleveland has left the city for Gray Gables, accompanied by the friends who at- tended the exercises at the garden with her last night. A gentleman who sat close to Mra. Cleveland last evening told a pleasant incident connected with the Indy's presence at the meet- “Mra, Cleveland,” said he, “seemed to be infected with the spirit of the vast multitude. She clapped her hands and tapped the floor | with her toes, just as if the committee of | arrangements had not expressly requested the audience to keep quiet. When she caught sight the emall army of newspaper men who were sitting just below the speakers’ platform she asked: “And are thove gentlemen really all | newspaper reporters?” When she was answered | in the affirmative Mrs. Cleveland clapped her hands with as much impetuosity as a school girl and eaid: ‘My, how good that is; they all seem so enthusiastic that it is surely a good sign” THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE. The meeting of the democratic national com- mittee was called for noon, but it was some time later when‘the committee got together in Parlor D of the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Prior to the meeting Simon P. Sheerin of In- @iana said: “There seems to be no doubt that Then a| 4 there may be a motion to elect a chairman for the executive committee, or that matter may be | left to the executive committee itself after the chairman of the national committee has named the members of that body.” ‘Mr. Sheerin, it wasadded, would undoubtedly be elected secretary and treasurer. At 12:30 Mr. Cleveland, accompanied by Don ©. Dickinson, loft the hotel for Mr. Whitney's residence, it being expected at that time that Mr. Cleveland would not be tat the meet national ving | if anything. O'Donnell, however, said he had Take Him. | Special Dispatch From « Staff Correspondent. * eager he to oa Hugh O'Donnell’s return to Hi brief as his stay was, cheered the hearts of a large number of the despondent strikers. The leader arrived here shortly after midnight and departed for Pittsburg to surrender himself just nine hours Inter. Just what O'Donnell ac- complished during his absence in thd cast | (for, as Tae Stan stated exclusively, ho was in New York) is not yet public property. But he told me this morning that he and his fellow workers were bound to win. “The forces that are now with us,” said he, “cannot success- | fully be resisted even by the vast wealth and | influence of the Carnegie Company. No, I cannot divulge details at this time, but ine few days you will know everything. The firm can import all the non-union men it desires, | but the plant will not be operated. You may imagine from the present ap- Pearance of things that the Amal- Gamated Association is the under dog. Remember that appearances frequently de- | ceive. Our fight will be entirely within the | lines of the law and that it will be effective is beyond question." ‘The fact that he was about to give himself up to the authorities in response to a warrant which charges murder did not seem to disturb O'Donnell at all. He is not sanguine as to the result of the effort which willbe made to bring about his release on bail,and yet heis not cast down atthe Prospect of the imprisonment which must necessarily precede trial. His voice was as firm and pleasing as ever and there was no sus- Picion of tremulousness in the handshake he | gave me before boarding the train. The only | things that pinched him, and I know he felt hart, were the insinuations that he had gone | into Hiding and was a fugitive from justice. | Against these he protested vigorously. He is notacoward. Now that the Carnegie Com- pany has started in to prosecute the strike lead- ers who are alleged to have participated in the battle with the Pinkertons there is rising a mul- titude of the men who say “I told you eo.”” One of these, a socialist, is quoted this morn- | ing as saying that the present disaster was due | tothe blunders of O'Donnell, McLuckie and others. He said: “They seem to have no knowledge of conducting a systematic warfare of a secret character against a great, rich and influential firm. They shouted too much from | the honsetops, and each individual appeared to vie with the other in bragging what he was going to do and how it was to be accomplished. Their loud talk I fear will get a number of them into serious trouble. A member of our party and | ;myaelf held « conversation with one of the snan-wh6-is now charged with murder a day or twoiprevious to the fight, and subsequently he |'wa tailing what he had done and what he was | going to do with the Pinkertons, We told him to keep # still tongue; this made him shout the louder. “He is now boginning to reap the benefit of a fatal mistake. But of all the foolish blunders O'Donnell is credited with the worst, and one which, fear, will jeopardize his personab lib- erty, is thut he in a spirit of braggadocia, sent a telegram to Attorney General Hensel saying that the Winchester riftes taken from the Pinkertons were in his possession and that he would hand them over to the state authorities when de- manded. ‘This was a self-confession of guiltand will certainly be used in evidence against O'Donnell when the case comes to trial.” chatter is pure foolishness. That O"Donnell and associates are amenable to the law of the state is evident, but to aver that they threw away any chances is nonsense.’ ‘They steadfastly refused to talk over matters which might profitably have been discussed. They keep their mouths ehut too tightly, the Winchester rifles and as a fact they were not in his possession. Had the state desired they could probably have gathered a number of the weapons together, but he never incriminated himself or his associates by a single word. Hugh O'Donnell is not a fool. THE RACE QUESTION Comes UP. Supt. Potter has a peck of trouble on his | hands—unexpected trouble. It became appar- | ent yesterday evening,when the non-union men in the plant were about to eat supper. A num- ber of the new hands were colored men, and as soon as they sat. down| to the table several of the white mechanics ‘arose and demanded that the negroes be ac- commodated elsewhere. Some of the remarks made provoked replies from the colored men and a° race war was only averted! after much persuasion and not o little| physical force had been used. Today arrange- ments are being made to feed the whites and blacks separately, something not common in Homestead. In this town colored people patronize the restaurants on even terms with people of all other natinalitie. © G. H. H. #IE ‘T. MAY'S SUICIDE. ‘pompordry Insanity Generally Given as the Cause. New York, July 21.—The circumstances sur- rounding the suicide of Lieut. Sidney H. May yesterday are still wrapped in mystery. No ‘one can explain positively the reason for: the act, Dr. Herndon, May's dearest friend, ob- tained leave of absence this morning and has gone, it is said, to notify the suicide’s mother at Kennett Square, Pa.

Last Night. The speeches of Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Stevenson at Now York last night have been read with considerable interest by the states- men at the capitol, but there are very few who are willing to express any but the most general opinions on the eubject. | In Aformal, perfunctory sort of way the demo- crats all say about the same thing: that it is referring to that of Mr. Cleveland. Some say privat that they do not think much of the it if they are to be they would The te cov Gn cemnek is an imprese- ion among many that the on the tariff while strong in denanetation of the republican are measure, to Tp'the datartca of the ‘which de- nounces any in general terms.

The Case of the Assault on Policeman Cooney. A piece of light felt which was once in the shape of @ policeman's helmet was produced | in Judge Miller’s court today as evidence in | the Fourth of July fight in “Foggy Bottom,” during which Policeman Cooney was hit in the head with astone and John McCarthy was ehot in the leg by the policeman. The charge in the case was asmult on the officer and the de- fendants were James McCarthy, Thomas O'Donnell, John McCarthy, John Williams, | Frank (Hickey, Annie O'Donnell and James Williams, Ita that on the night of July 4 the pelonnen Gikeak Joba ‘Motartuy under arrest near he refused to go 1 streets and le managed to get away from the “fight © the offcor and with the'ofiicer. him, and during shot him. The officer recaptured him and again he gotawat. During the trouble the officer was struck in the head and so badiy injured that he was com to remain in bed under the doctor's care for several days. For the defense a number of witnesses were called to rebut the evidence given by the) officers. They did not see the affair as the officers sawit, None of them saw any stones thrown, nor did they see the officer's hat kicked to plooss The defendants denied the charge | and Annfe O'Donnell dented a statement at- tributed to her by one of the officers. THE JUDOE MAKES SOME REMARKS. During his charge to the jury the judge said | that an officer has no more right toshoot a man | who is escaping from him for disorderly con- duct than he has to go in a man's house and murder him while he isin bed. The judge said he was tired of hav- ing to teil these officers about the law. The citizens have some rights and they are enti- tled to protection against the unwarranted and reckless use of |, no matter whether it is held by ‘an officer of the law or not. The shooting, the judge ex- plained, had nothing to do with the ease on rial, but he merely made the remarks because the shooting had referred to by counsel and also because if heeded they may prevent some officer from getting into serious difficulty. ~ The court took ® recess after the testimony was heard. After recess Lawyers Taylor an Sillers, for the defendants, and Messrs. Clagett and Mullowney, for the government, argued the ‘Such | Case.

Mr. Adolf Cluss Gives the Result of His Examination of the Work. ‘The joint immigration committee today took up the Ellis Island investigation at the request of some of the treasury officials, who desired to submit farther testimony in connection with the alleged malconstruction of the buildings. The most important testimony taken was that of Mr. Cluse, inspector of public buildings under the Treasury" Department, who. examined the | construction of at the! and who| stated today had in the main building building fairly well | constructed of fairly good and fairly well suited for its intended purpose, at a rea- sonable cost.
