Efforts of the Republicans to Make It & Great Occasion—Democrats Handi- capped in Raising Fands—Notes. AKRON, Ohio, Sept. 12.—This city was in holiday attire today and chock full of en- thusiastic republicans in celebration of the opening of Gov. McKinley's campaign in Ohio. Preparations have been going on for weeks, and today Akron awakened in a blaze of glory and bunting, such as it has not seen since the Blaine ‘pageant of 1884. He arrived at 11:15, and was greeted with the governor's salute of nineteen guns and a multitude of people. After linner he was escorted by a great procession to Grace Park. The weather Was magnificent and the scene at the park gorgeous with colors and decorations. At 2:30 p. m. the ceremontes began. President Crouse called the meeting to order and made a short speech of congratulation. The Columbus Glee Club then sang “After Last Fall,” a parody on “After the Ball,” and which blamed financial depression on the election of Cleveland. After prayer by Rev. J. C. Kauffmann Gov. McKinley was pre- sented and spoke about the proposed dem- ocratic assault on protection. ‘Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 11, 1893. Democrats here have been dissatisfied for rome time with the delay of President Cleve- land in making a number of important local appointments. They are long past due and unless they are soon forthcoming it is Hkely to have a discouraging effect upon the party in the state campaign. As a rule, Ohio appointments that fell natu- rally to the dictation of some democratic Congressmen have been promptly made, but those in which Senator Brice has had the deciding voice, have generally “hung fire’ for an indefinite period. There is iittle room for doubt that Mr. Brice ig now trimming his sails to be a presidential can- didate in 1896, and wishes to make as many friends and as few enemies in the mean- time as possible. Unltke most of Ohio can- didates for the presidential nomination he will try to have the solid delegation from his state. Raising F for the Campaign. There is not a single democratic official in the state house now, and this fact suggests @ great advantage to the republicans in the campaign. It offers a sure and ready means of raising funds for meeting the ex- penses of an active political contest. The state roster of officials and employes, count- ing all the state Institutions and’ public works, is an enormous list. It is customary to exact from every member on the list a sum equal to 3 per cent of his salary for the year, and there is no trouble about its collection. The official or employe is simply asked to sign an order directing the finan- cial officer from whom he draws his pay, to give the proper sum designated in the order to the campaign treasurer. Of course he an not be compelled to do this, but he un- derstands very well that if he does not comply promptly his tenure of office will not be worth done this for a long time and there are no civil service rules to hinder. It means that the party in power will have plenty of the “sinews of war’ in the campaign. From the state prison comes an objection to the size of the assessment, which the republicans have levied this year. Guards, who have been there before, complain that the sums they are asked for are nearly double what they were the last time, but Chairman Dick says that the levy is ex- actly the same. The hard times problem makes the payment of the same amount a heavier burden thar usual. Democrats Without Funds. It is difficult to see where the democrats expect te get their money to carry on their campaign. As stated above, there is not a single democrat in the state office now, and the federal offices in Ohio are yet mostly in the hands of thé republicans. The postmasters In the large cities have not been disturbed, and the army of clerks and letters carriers in these will no doubt con- tribute financially to the defeat of the party that has nominal control of the post offices. It ts not likely that Senator Brice will con- tribute an unusual sum this year, as neither he or his close political friends’ have any- thing depending upon the results. Never- theless, Chairman Seward is opening opera- tions here on a broad scale, and acts as if the wherewithal to carry on a big fight lay right in sight. He is not the man, more- over, to go into a contest without care- fully studying the case. The republicans here, led by the state officials, have arranged a big excursion to go from here to Akron tomorrow to particl- pate in the opening of the state campaign by Gov. McKinley. The train that carries the party will be a sight to see. A com- mittee on decorations [3 at work covering it with republican designs and mottoes, and attached to the rear coach will be a gondola car, carrying a cannon, from which a squad of artillerymen will’ continually fire salutes as the train proceeds. The train will leave here at 7:20 a.m., and leave Akron returning at 6:30 p.m.’ the same day. Gov. McKinley will accompany this party to Akron, and will go direct from there to Chicago to take part in the exer- cises of “Ohio day” at the world’s fair. Keynote of the Campaign. Gov. McKinley addressed several thon- sand coal miners at Shawnee on Labor Day, and probably sounded the key note of the campaign. He said he believed in making what we want for our use right here at home, so as to provide work for our people, even if it did cost us a little more. He touch” ed upon politics lghtly,as It was not a polit- ical speech, but intimated that he thought the present industrial depression here due to fear on the part of manufacturers that protection might be overthrown. He felt sure, however, that it would not be. Notes. Chairman C. F. Dick of the republitcan state executive committee has received let- ters from Congressman J, C. Burrows of Michigan and ex-Speaker Thos. B. Reed in answer to invitations to them to take part in the Ohio campaign, accepting the invita- tions, but intimating ‘that they will not be able to come to this state until late in the campaign. No dates have yet been fixed for em. Chairman Seward of the democratie com- mittee says he has promises from a number of prominent democrats from outside of the state that they will muke speeches in the campaign, but give no names, ‘The continu- ation of the special session of Congress will probably prevent many Congressmen from doing extensive campaign work. ‘The quarteriy pension payment, which was made from the local agency, developed the fact that payment had been suspended in many cases, pending reiuvestigation of the claims, and the republican newspapers are using the stories of pensioners, some of which, it must be admitted, are very pa- thetic, as campaign material, no doubt with considerable effect among the old soldiers, L. T. Neal, the democratic candidate for governor, seems to be actively af work, though his campaign is not yet formally opened. He ts jttending all the democratic conventions and making excellen; which, if reports are rellable, ate bnthoct, asticaily received. ene ‘ The Trouble Over. An important change has occurred In the situation on the Rio Grande. The hostile feature of the controversy between the United States and Mexico over the bound- ary question, has been removed for the present by the recall of the military. ‘The matter will now proceed on a purely dip- lomatic basis. At the suggestion of the Sec- retary of State, Gen. Schofield yesterday telegraphed Maj. Keyes, commanding the United States troops at Havanna ranch, to at once release the Mexican custom officers who were there in custody for the alleged unlawful seizure of Mexican sheep. A question yet to be settled is whether the place of seizure is in American territory. —____-e-___+— Canadian Indian Hop Pickers. Immigrant Inspector Snyder has tele- graphed from Tacoma, Wash., asking for instructions in the case of 600 Canadian Indians who have crossed the border to engage in hop picking. It is represented that these Indians paid their own expenses, After arrival they obtained employment at hop picking, that crop (which is heavy in that section of the cougtry) being then ready for harvesting. The white laborers have protested, and the decision of the case 1s now under consideration by the Treasury Department. Assistant Secretary Maynard, in 1888, held that if such Indians came in under contract they were lable to they get out of work return to their across the border. An official the case will probably be rendered very soon. much. Both parties have | TO REIMBURSE SETTLERS. A Bill That Brings Out Some Political Discussion, was something of a political dis- in the rooms of the committee on ‘There cussion i the alternate sections sold to settlers at an enhanced price by reason of the advance- ment of the valuation due to the building of the railroads’ highway. In many cases these roads were never built, and the set- tlers, under the bellef that their property would be more valuable, paid $2.50 per acre, whereas the ordinary valuation of govern- ment lands was $1.25 per acre. This bill 1s intended to authorize the reimbursement of such settlers of the extra $1.2 they have paid where the railroad was not con- structed. The same bill was passed by the Senate under republican rule, but failed to pass the House. =~ In committee the democrats argued that the bill was a political measure, and while no vote was taken, it was easy to see that its fate would rest upon the political com- plexton of the committee, and, if saved at all, {t will be through the vote of Mr. Mar- tin, who 1s inclined to favor it as benefictal to ‘his section of the country and the set- tlers of the west generally. No action was taken, but a communication was addressed to the Secretary of the Interior to ascer- tain the amount of money involved, the statement of members making the amount Tange from $250,000 to $1,500,000. ele THE PALMETTO TRADE MARK. Gov. Tillman’s Counsel Applies for = Mandamus on Commissioner Seymour. Yesterday afternoon Mr. J. Altheus Johnson filed an application on behalf of Gov. Tillman of South Carolina in the Su- preme Court of the District for a writ of mandamus against the commissioner of patents, praying that the commissioner be compelled to register the mark “Palmetto” the distinguishing trade mark of the tate of South Carolina in the matter of the sale of liquors by the state and pro- hibiting the use of the trade mark except by the state or by its authority. Judge Bradley, to whom the petition was pre- sented, directed that an order issue re- quiring the commissioner of patents to show cause on or before Tuesday next why the writ should not be granted as prayed. ———_—_+e-- The Matter of Pensions. To correct some Irregularittes in the mat- ter of pension appeals Secretary Hoke Smith has decreed that appellants be re- quired to file with the Secretary a brief statement of their ground for appeal. Evi- dence filed subsequent to action by the de- partment wiil not be entertained by the Secretary till it has passed through the pension bureau. No rejected claim, whose rejection has been affirmed by the Secre- tary, will be reopened without the Secre- tary's consent. No appeal pertaining to a | fee, where refundment has been called for, will be entertained unless the refundment called for shall have been made. Reorganization of the board of pension appeals has been effected. Instead of work- Ing in divisions as heretofore, it will work asa whole, John A. Lacy of Missouri, who has been a member of the board for six years, is made chairman, and Edward P. Hall of Pennsylvania, assistant chairman. ~————+ e+ Transportation of General Service Clerks. The Secretary of War has amended the army regulations so as to provide that general service clerks shall be entitled to transportation in kind, and if no trans- portation be furnished to a reimbursement of the actual cost thereof over the shortest possible route. —————_-2+—_____ Nothing From Canada. No information, official or otherwise, has been recelved from the Canadian govern- ment as to the reported rejection by that government of the immigration agreement perfected by Superintendent Stump on be- half of the United States and by Deputy Minister of the Interior Burgess on the part of Canada. ——+ © +______ Mr. Blount Leaves Washington. The President has practically completed his consideration of the Hawaiian ques- tion and action may be expected within a very short period, probably within three weeks. Ex-Minister Blount made his offi- clal adieux yesterday afternoon and left for his home in Georgia. His official ccn- nection with the Hawailan question has ended, but he may be recalled to Wash- ington to assist in the negotiations with the Hawalian minister for a new treaty with Hawaii. ———_+-«+___ Anotber Armor Plate Test. Preparations are being made for a second test of a seventeen-inch plate representing 300 tons of armor for the barbettes of the battle ship Indiana and {t will probably take place at the Indian Head pzoving grounds next week. The plate, which was made by the Bethlehem Iron “Works, has arrived here and {s now being backed and braced for the attack of the twelve-inch rifle, which is to hurl against it three pro- Jectiles weighing 0 pounds each. The velocity of the shots will vary from about 1,300 feet per second for the first shot to 1,87 for the third. The plate is from a lot of armor for the second barbette. At the last trial of a seventeen-inch plate for the first barbette the plate stood the attack admirably, although it did not win a pre- mium for its make ns Personal Mention.

Judge Sims, the first assistant Secretacy of the Interior, has returned to Washing- ton from a visit to the world’s fair. Chief Clerk Kemper of the treasury ar- chitect’s office left here for Chicago yester- day on official business. a Indian Smuggling Over the Border. The Treasury Department has instructed the collector of customs at Detroit, Mich. to refuse free entry to goods in a greate! amount than $100 in the possession of Indi- ans passing to the United States from Canada. Under the first tariff act in opera- tion In the United States, passed March. 2, 17, section 105 provided’ that peltries and effects of Indians were entitled to free entry, provided the exemption shall not apply to bales or other packages unusual among Indians. ‘The original intent of the act was to per- mit Indians, who are of a migratory nature, to bring in on their return from hunts meat and skins obtained in the chase. Acting under this general exemption in favor of Indians, certain merchants of Canada have employed Indians to bring thelr goods to this country. One Indian recently brought in at one time $1,500 worth of such goods, duty free. This has now been stopped, in the Instructions given to the collector at Detroit, Mich., and which are applicable to all similar cases. ee Army Orders.

The House Will Attend. In the House this morning Speaker Crisp Presented the letter of invitation from the chairman of the citizens’ committee cn the centennial celebration to the House to take part in the ceremonies. Thereupon Mr. Cogswell of Massachusetts introduced a resolution providing’ that on September 1§ the House shall take a recess at 1:50 «nd proceed in a body, attended by its officers, to take part in the ceremonies. The reso: lution was agreed to, The Public Rehearsal. Last night there were rehearsals of the Capitol Hill, central, north central, Hyatts- ville and Alexandria divisions of the great centennial chorus, and although the weather was Inciement the attendance in every instance was good. The work was conducted with earnestness by all the as- sistant directors, and it is believed that all the subdivisions are in good condition for the public rehearsal that is to take place at Convention Hall tomorrow evening. The interest in this rehearsal is very great, and it is believed that the attendance will be very large. The price is fixed at 25 cents, with reserved seats at 50 cents, and the proceeds are to go toward the expense of getting up this large chorus. The best singers in the city have been invited to par- ticipate in the solo choir, and it is thougat that the novelty of witnessing a rehearsal of this character will fill the hall, large though it is. — A Sullivan Hearing. hearing to counsal in the case of Paymas: earing to counsel in case of ter J.

In instances you have left your counting and offices at «reat inconventence and sacrifice. With the most magnificent territory owned by any nation, populated by an enterpris- ing and intelligent people, filled with the choicest natural wealth, with every reason for the highest prosperity, we are suddenly enveloped in financial gloom, the skies of Progress are overcast with clouds. The happy smile of advancing fortune «ives way to the sigh of despondency; a panic bursts out from the brightness of the morn- ing and all allke suffer. The men of great fortunes see them fleeing out of sight and the smaller holders of wealth are gloomy witnesses of departing happiness. The laborer clamors for bread, the farmer can- Not realize enough for his crops to pay for their production. What to Say to Congress. And to what ts this condition chargeable? Primarily to a want of contidence. You come here today representing the senti- ments of a large majority of the people of every section of this land, who say through you to Congress: “Give ussensible, honest legislation, not democratic, not republican, not populistic or anarchistic, hut fair and wise action, which will turn’ the wheels of our mills, open our iron furnaces. market our crops, take the hoarded currency fre its hiding places, and send it upon useful errands into every village, township, and city of this great nation. By your presenee here you ray to Con- gress: “Stop talking, vote and act. Do what every man of common sense knows ought to be done at ance: Let the govern ment stop buying what it does not necd, and what it does not want. “The people of the country will solve this question If you will take the step they de mand of you. “They drew out of the national banks nearly $200,000,000 during the year «ndir July 12, 1838. They have substracted from the holdings of the bunks since the panic began forty millions of gold, thirty-four and one-half millions of legal tender and two and one- half millions in silver. ‘The banks have not been hoarding the money, but the people. Members of the Senate, you cannot ™ tify the situation by cailing the men who Want sound money “gold bugs” or “Shy locks.” The period of doubt has told upon all classes, and as business alone is the great basts of prosperity, its votce should be heard with as much attention as that which comes up from trade or transportation This voice says to Congress: “Stop dealing in side issues, stop talking polittes, tall busin. stop abusing the bankers, talk business; stop accusing the press of un- fairness, talk business; stop trying experi- ments and try common sense; deal with facts, not theortes.” I should like to say much more, but this is to be a business convention. May your deliberations and conclustons be wise, char- acterized by that fairness which rises fro: a patriotic understanding of the common est needs of our great republic, upon which all prosperity must rest and all successful legislation be enacted Washington is honored by your presenc not as politicians or princes, but as repr senting that type of manhood which, hav- ing assumed large responsibilities, "seeks with unswerving fidelity to successfully discharge them. Temporary Organtzatio At the conclusion of Mr. Warn marks, which were liberally Mr. D. A. Dangler of Cleveland moved thi Mr. Warner be selected as temporary chair man, and the motion was unanimously agreed to. Briefly thanking the convention for the honor conferred, Chairman Warner called for nominations for temporary secretary,and upon the motion of Mr. G. M. Roberson of New York, Mr. Ryerson Ritchie of Cleve- land, Ohio, was unanimously elected Thereupon, Mr. D. F. Dolan of Lawrenc Mass., moved that a committee on cr dentials to the number of fifteen be ap. pointed. The motion was promptly agreed to, and Chairman Warner announced the committee as follows: D. F. Dolan, Law- rence, Mass.; E. E. Paine, Scranton, Pa.; rs re- W. A. R. Tenny, Cincinnati, Ohto;) Wm. Foster, % y City, orfolk, Va Adoiph a.; Jas. M. Carpenter, St. Louis, Mo.: 3. W. Woodward, Washington, D. C; Frank Squier, New York; Geo. E. Newell, Pawtucket, R. I Clarence B. Lovell, Boston, Mass.: Wm. M. Coates, Philadelphia, Pa.; John W. Vernon, Provideuce, R. 1, and’ J. G. Downtali Huntington, W. Va. Upon the announcement of the committee on credentials Mr. James Smith of Lowell, Mass., moved that a committee of five be appointed by the chair on rules and organtzation. Mr. Late Pence of the Denver chamber of commerce moved that the motion be amended by authorizing the chairman to enlarge the committee by appointing a delegate from each state. Mr. Pence said jthat he made the motion because he te- Meved that the convention wished *o hear both sides. He represented a body which it seemed was not in accordance with the call issued for the convention. It appreved. too, that according to the newspapers the body he had the honor to represent wovld form an exceedingly small minority of the convention, but he did not believe that the convention’ wished to cut off the opportun- ity of his organization to be beard. He did not like to believe that the members of the proposed committee on rules and or- ganization had already been selected, as had evidently been the case in the matter of the committee on credentials. The committee on rules or organization would undoubtedly be largely responsible for the future work of the convention, and would necessarily outline Its course of procedure. He wished to be heard by or reprasented on that committee, and for that reason he had moved the amendment. A Recess Taken. Mr. James T. Smith of Lowell, Mass., in- terrupted Mr. Pence to state that he wouil accept his amendment, but before the amended motion could be put it was sug- gested that the report of the committee on credentials first be recelved, and upon the motion of Mr. Smith of New York, a recess was then taken to enable the committee to prepare its report. It is understood that the convention will | be permanently organized by the selection of ex-Gov. E. O. Stannard of Missouri as permanent chairman, the motion to be made by President Darwin R. James of the New York Board of Trade and Transportation. — Fatally Injured.
