WATCHING THE FRONTIER. Owing to the constant passage of the fron- tier by bands of Servian and Montenegrin volunteers the Porte finds it necessary to keep a large force continually on the watch to prevent their joining the insurgents.

The creditors being principally Austrians, some papers demand the inter- vention of the government. Epidemics have appeared among the Turkish and insurgent camps. Servia, replying to Turkey's complaint about the Servians invading Bosnia, declares her mability to re strain her people any more than Austria, which has not prevented at least 1,000 Croats from joining the Herze- govinians, ACCESSIONS TO THE INSURRECTION—THE TURKS RETIRING.

GERMANY. ‘TIGHTNESS OF THE MONEY MARKET—A CHANGE IN THE FINANCIAL CONDITION. Loxpox, Sept. 28, 1875. The Daily News to-day in its financial article has the following:— “The condition of the German money market has be- come most peculiar. Accounts from Berlin speak of the extraordinary tightness of money there, The minimum in the discount market has advanced to five per cent, or quite up to the bank rate of discount, and the withdrawal of bullion from the Bank of Prussia has been on such a scale as to raise the expectation that the bank rate of discount is to be advanced, Germany is carrying through a great transformation in her money system, and this tightness is the price paid. In addi- tion to substituting a uniform gold standard for the varying silver standards which formerly existed, an alteration which will come into operation on New Year’s Day next, and a uniform system of token money, the government has simultaneously altered tho whole of the currency and banking legislation. It is the foregoing changes the pinch of which is now felt,” THE BANK RATE OF DISCOUNT INCREASED.

ANXIETY CONCERNING MR, DELANO’S svUC- CESSOR—COMMISSIONER SMITH'READY TO RE- SIGN—THE LATK SECRETARY TO BE EXONER- ATED BY THE RED CLOUD COMMISSION. Wasnineton, Sept, 28, 1875, Much anxiety is everywhere expressed to ascertain the name of Mr. Dulano’s successor. Up tonoon to-day the Department of State had no communication to make, nor was there any information on the subject at the Executive mansion. AN EXPRESSION FROM MR, SMITH. ‘The Commissioner of Indian Affairs said to-day, in answer to a query as to whether he would resign on the occasion of a new Secretary of the Interior, that, while he did not feel that it would be incumbent on him to do so, yot he would gladly tender his resignation should he receive the slightest intimation that it would bo acceptable, : He said that THE FORTHCOMING REPORT of the Red Cloud Cominission will undoubtedly exon- erate Secretary Deiano and himself, as not an iota of evidence was adduced tending to show their-culpability. He further said he would be glad at any time to be relieved of the arduous and responsible duties of the Indian Office, THE BAY STATE REPUBLICANS. PREPARING FOR THE WORK OF THE CONVENTION TO-DAY—THE RIVAL CANDIDATES FOR GUBER- NATORIAL HONORS—A HOPELESS MUDDLE— SOLICITUDE OF THE PROHIDBITIONISTS. Worcester, Mass., Sept. 28, 1875, Propably a‘party was nover put so nearly to its wits’ end as the republican party of Massachusetts is to-night, The wirepullers have gathered in the usual numbers from all over the State, and the caucusing is proceed- ing with all the solemnity attending the preliminaries ofafuneral, They realize that Governor Gaston, Gen- eral Bartlett and the other nominations mado by the democrats last week are going to be very hard to beat, They realize also that a democratic victory in Massachusetts this year will be an augury of @ democratic victory throughout the country in 1876, Yet the party is ina pertect muddle to-night, with three or four separate factions, each contending for the mastery and each threateniieg to bolt the ticket and vote for Gaston if its claims are not recognized. Such is the pass to which the republican party, which used to sweep the State by 50,000 to 75,000 majority, has been brought by the obstinacy of President Grant in maintaining such men as Collector Simmons and Postmaster Burt in office in the face of the protests of the'whole community. THE NOMINATION FOR GOVERNOR. Whether Alexander H. Rice, of Boston; Dr. George B. Loring, of Salem, or Charles Francis Adams, of Quincy, shall be nominated to-morrow, or whether the choice will fall on an entirely new candidate, is one of those thiugs which nobody can find out with any de- gree of certainty. The Rice men, who represent the blue blood of Boston, claim 500 votes on the first ballot , rofess to be confident of carrying off the prizo, The Loring men are, if anything, still more contident, although the Doctor is, probubly, a dead duck, His support comes mainly from the rural districts, and if he should happen to get away with the nomination the Convention will be the biggest surprise party of the Scason, THE ADAMS MOVEMENT, which has been fostered mainly by a few men and papers who want to redeem the politics of the State from the slough into which it has fallen, has not made great heading yet, not more than 150 of the 1,130 delegates being for the Quincy statesmen. The only hope for this slate is in the the smashing of all the others, If both Ricé and Loring can be beaten off then Adams may possibly be nominated, but there is more probability of the selection of a new man like Congressman Henry L. Pierce, of Boston. THE WAR ORY. “Anything to beat Gaston” is the war cry of the leaders, but with so many contending factions the pros- pect of harmony is not flattering, ‘THR PROHIBITIONISTS. The prohibitionists are in favor of ueither of the can- didates named, and are especially bitter against Mr. Rice for not enforcing the liquor law when he was Mayor of Boston. They will be satisfled with nobody except a radical prohibitionist like ex-Governor Talbot, who was defeated by Gaston last year. ‘The republicans do not dare to declare for prohibition, for that would surely lose them the State. On the other hand, they do not dare to offend the prohibitionists, as they hold the balance of power. Altogether the repub- lican politics of this State are a sorry mess, There is little doubt that whoever is nominated to-morrow the democrats will sweep the State in November. DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS. : BINGHAMTON, Sept. 28, 1975. The Democratic Convention of this city to-day nomi- nated R. A. Ford for the Assembly, John Burghardt Jr., for Sheriff, and L. 8. Abbott for Treasurer, and passed reyolutions favoring a contraction of the cur- reney. SENATOR WALLACE ON THE CUR- RENCY. CueaRFIELD, Pa., Sept. 28, 1875. United States Senator Wallace in bis speech to-night charged the condition of the country on republican ex- travagance and mismanagement, The country could not resume in 1879 because no preparation has been made for it, and the condition must precede the statutes, The Erie platform does not mean the indefinite post. ponement of specie payments, but its whole thought is case on an overtaxed people. We have paid over $3,879,000,000 since 1865, more’ than the whole debt of Great Britain, Give the people time to rest from this exhaustive labor, conomy in administration must open the door to resumption, ana we ought to save the money paid to National banks on their bonds by exchanging bank currency for government notes. The path of the democ- Tacy ig to save your money to your debts, The true money of a Republic is hard money. We reach the latter through the fopmer, but the people must have time to recuperate their exhausted energies. ‘State finances and State issues occupied the most of his speech. In closing he invited the closest examination of his Telatious to every public trust and challenged the most rigid scrutiny into every act of his official life, EX-FATHER GERDEMANN, THE EX-PRIEST ON THE PUBLIC SCHOOL QUES- TION—HE DENOUNCES THE ATTEMPT TO DRIVE THE BIBLE FROM OUR SCHOOLS, Purtavenrata, Sept. 28, 1875, John W. Gerdemann, the ex-priest of tho Catholic Church, delivered a second lecture in this city, this evening, at the Academy of Music, his subject bein, “Our Public Schools,” and his argument an appe that they shall not be allowed to become sectarian, There was a very large crowd in attendance, but no disturbance, a large force of police being also present, A CIVIL RIGHTS BURIAL CASE. LADELPIIA, Sept. 28, 1875, ‘There will probably be a suit for damages growing out of the alleged refusal of the Mount Moriah Ceme- tery Association to receive for burial the remains of Henry Jones, colored, the well known caterer of this city, who died on Friday last, Mrs, Jones bought a lot in the cemetery in April last and buried a sister in it a month later and ast summer her husband enclosed the lot with an ornamental railing. When the funeral cortége was on its way to the cemetery yesterday, it was stopped, a8 alleged, by a - party of men who purported to represent the As- sociation, alleging that no person of color should be interred thero, The body has been tempo- rarily placed in the receiving vault of the Lebanon Cemetery, and counsel for the heirs has opened com- munication with the cemetery officials, demanding the reception of the body. : THE GUIBORD CASE.

THE HERALD'S PARIS OFFICE, {From the Lancaster (Pa.) Examiner.) The New York Heratp has established a newspaper office in Paris, to which itsends a number of American papers for the accommodation of American travellers.

DETERMINED ATTITUDE OF THE MANURACTURERS “He Who Enters that Door Must Sign the Agreement.” NO OTHER TERMS PROBABLE. What the Operatives Require from the Mill Owners. THE MAGISTERIAL EXAMINATION, Telegrams of Sympathy from New York Communists, A NUMBER OF MILLS AT WORK. Faun River, Mass, Sept, 28, 1875. There have been no further outdoor demonstrations to-day, but thousands of operatives have been walking the streets as though there might be something calling for their assistance. They appear gloomy and deter- mined—gloomy over the sad condition to which many of them are reduced, and determined to resist to the bitter end. They are organizing so far as they can, but it is a difficult matter to organize with- out having recognized leaders, But, strange as it may appear, there is not a leader here who is recog- nized sufficiently as to be able to command obe* dienco to a given line of action, In this re. spect they have not equal facilities with the manufac- turers, They, of course, condemn the hasty action of the Mayor in bringing the militia into the town, They aver that he has been used by the mill owners; that he was really frightened when the man hit him yesterday with the piece of bread; that he has exceeded his duty in sending for sol- diers after the police had suppressed what- evor domestic violence had existed, and they are especially bitter, because, instead of receiving them courteously, he told them that they might go to Titicut to the State Pauper House, simply because he was ordered to say so, The general sentiment here is divided, but condemnatory of all that has transpired recently. A local editor prints tho following this even- ings— Yesterday’s proceedings reflected little credit upon oither the operatives or their employers, These new regulations formed the bone of contention, and until they are modified by expunging their obnoxious por- tious there always will be trouble between tne parties. Up to yesterday the help behaved for these eight starvation weeks with excellent patienca, their con- duct, without exception, having been free from disorder or outrage. It would have been better for themselves and their own interests hadthey continued in this honorable career, for the one-sided and coercive regulations would have died a natural death, or what, perhaps, is more likely they would have been laughed to scorn by the enlightened public opinion of the State and the assaults of the press. An agree- ment condemned by every oue who reads it is not an agreementat all, however many may sign it, and to act upon such a document is a moral impossi- bility. The manufacturers may bave a legal and tech- nical right to say to the help, “Sign this or starve,” but they have no moral right to impose such conditions, and we are astonished that gentiomen should make such an attempt. Fall River has twice been sub- jected to the disgrace of calling in a military force to maintain order, and this disgrace lies at the doors of the manutacturers, not of the people. Had these re- pulsive conditions not been inserted in the agreement the operatives would have gone to their work yesterday and the mills would have been running full to-day; nor is it to be forgotten that while the manufacturers are determined to put down the unions of the workmen, they are as determined to maintain their own. This is @ peculiarity of the present trouble, and is of a piece with the moral perceptions of men who exact ten days’ notice from the help, but will give none. WHAT THE MANUFACTURERS SAY. Your correspondent waited upon several of the lead- ing cotton men here this morning, in order to ascortain how tie} intend to act now. Strange to say, they seam: to feel that the press has been doing them almost irreparable injury in New England and New York, They believe that some attempts ‘have been made to destroy the credit of the city by inviting scrutiny to colored statements and by pre- tending that Fall River, with its $30,000,000 of capital invested in mills, has not as good a chance as any other city to compete for the trade of the country. When the help left they admit that it was thought a month’s “vacation” might have some effect in sending up the prices and thus keep the mills going. Through Superintendent Stanley I was introduced to Mr. J, M. Osborn, treasurer and director Of the Slade Milla, Mr. Osborn is also @ director in several other mills and institutions in the city. He is also a member of the Manufacturers’ Board of Trade, “What do you intend to do now?’ I said to him; “you see the help will not go in on this documont;?? of which he bad a number, with blank spaces for signatures, “Now, as to these rules, there ts no tyranny or in- tended imposition on our part. We found that things began to look so blue that it would be necessary either to reduce the wages or the quantity of goods pro duced, To lessen the manufacture would bo to place our business in @he hands of other makers, and that is why wo did not wish to stop entirely, We therefore proposed to put the help on three-quarter time, ‘hat is, pay them for four days a week, on which they could support their families, This was in October, but we went on making until the 10th December, Tho reduction was to take place on the Ist’ of January, On the Ist of Jan- uary the price of goods was no higher than it had been in October. We got them to work, but told them it would be necessary to reduce their pay ten per cent, or leave twenty-five per cent of the looms standing idlo, Great dissatisfaction was manifested at this, however, and finally, on the Ist of April, we agreed to give them back the ten per cont until the Ist of August. I am bound to say that they exulted considerably over the fact that they had carried the day on the last of July, Business began to drop so that we had to tell the help: that we should have to rduce the pay ten per cent in order to be able to run the mills, We wanted to keep our goods in the market and did not want to close up. This reduction was to commence on the 2d of August, Well, on the last Saturday in July the help went out as usual, witout giving us the least hint that they were not coming back on Monday morning. The same night they had arranged to have 4 meeting at the Opera House, which they held, and finally agreed to this vacation of thirty days. To prevent what was considered would be the necessity for reducing cither time or wages we stopped our mills, but 1 need scarcely tefl you that it was not in accordance with our wishes, We have planted our capital here and want to use it, At the end of the thirty days we still demanded our ten per cent and would have started our mills, but the Union men came around in great numbers and shouted and yelled and intimi- dated, and thus drove away what little help would have come in, ConnesPoxpENt—But they object to this document as arbitrary and unjust, as refusing them the privilege you yourselves have, Mr. Osvors—There is neither injustice nor arbitrary action here, We have simply made these rules to keep our mills going. If they were properly understood the objection would be less, We are not going to take any advantage, We do not wish them to keep from organi. | zations, but we do not and will not have such men as spoke to them yesterday come to us and say, We are in tho majority and willempty your mills, Up goes a hand and out goes the help. What we want is that when these so-called secretaries and others come round to be able to keep our help and keep them steadily at work. Martial law would be a terrible thing if its principles were constantly jin operation, bat it is good when necessity arises, We propose to apply it just in this way. We have no covert meaning, hor can any one show that this document can be so con- strued, tagsronpExt—But supposing you gannot get the help necessary to your work to sign it, what will you do then? Mr. Ossorx—Thero will be enough sign it if they are left alone. In any case we can hold out as long as they can, Our interests have suffered more than theirs, and yet they are constantly calling us tyrants and slave- drivers. ConkesronpeNt—But it may be necessary for you to withdraw it? Mr. Osnors—We will never withdraw tt, Before a Man passes that threshold (pointing to the entrance to the mill), or the threshold of any other mill, he will have to sign that paper. If he never signs he will never go in, that is certain, We must be allowed to manage our own affairs. Here we have at least tho finale of the Board of Man- ufacturers, On the other hand the help are just asdeflant, Only to-day the spinners met at Carrolton Hall and passed the following resolution:— “That a petition be sent through the city to solicit the tradesmen and others to sign in favor of the withdrawal of the conditions proposed by the employ- ers, anda petition, if necessary, be sent to the State authorities for ald; that it be understood that we wish to act in no selfish spirit towards our employers, for the following will pat an end to all petty strikes— that we are willing to give and take ten days’ notige on all questions of wages and labor, otherwise wo forfeit all pay belonging to us then due, and we expect the same from them for instant dismissal.’’ THM TERRIBLE PRESENT. The three committees of the different divisions held a session this morning to district the city and arrange for soliciting signers to the petition. Tho weavers and carders will join in this good work, and when they havo done all in their power to secure, the withdrawal of these conditions and have failed, with thetr employers determined, the police watehing them and soldiers facing them whereyer they show anything like force, no one can tell what will be done, Many are preaching peace and the observance of the laws today, without realizing that these people are almost in that state when all reasoning fails; when brute force will hurl itself against brute force, let it be ever so well disciplined, WANTED A LEADER, Had there been a firm leader at the City Hall yester- day the fifteen or twenty police would have been car- ried away like so many straws, This was shown in the Police Court this afternoon, when the arrested rioters were called up for examination. The testimony of Chief of Police Marshall Wright corroborates this, TH MAGISTRRIAL EXAMINATION, When the court met to examine the five prisoners at two o'clock, the room was so densely crowded Ly oper- atives and others as to be almost unbearable, The prisoners were. ropresented by Messrs. Lap- ham, Reed & Hathaway. The first business was to read the warrant for the arrest of the rioters, which the lawyers claimed was open to question, as the greatest difficulty had been experienced by Black- stone, Russell, and our later aathoritles, in settling just what a riot was. The document read as follows :— Justice of the District Court of Bristol, in the city of Fall River, in the county of Bristol, &., complained that Josepli Clifton, James Clifton, Martin Burk Michael McCabe, ' Joseph Dobson and Be nard Burke, of Fall River, together with divers other ill-disposed persons’ to the number of twelve or more, with force and arms, to wit, with clubs, sticks, staves and other dangerous weapons, un- lawfully and riotously, did assemble, and did gather together to the disturbancg of the public peace, and being assembled and gathered —_ together did then and there unlawfully, riotously make a great noise, riotand disturbance, and did then and there re- main and continue armed as last aforesaid, mak- ing such noise, riot and disturbance, for the space of one hour or more, to the great disturbance and terror, not ‘only of the citizens then passing and repassing in and along the common highway, therein contempt of law, and good order, and against the peace of the said Common- wealth, and the form of the staiute in such cases made "and provided. He therefore prays that said ‘‘defendants’’ may be apprehended and held to answer to said complaint, and dealt with in relation to the same as the law and justice may require, A. R WRIGHT, City Marshal. The Marshal’s testimony differed im no material point from the hietory of the riot which 1 sent yester- day. He said that about eleven o'clock he saw an immense crowd coming down South Main street, from tho direction of the Park; that he immediately ordered the platoon of police to march to meet them, which they did in front of the City Hall; that they called for the Mayor; that they yelled at and hissed him and his men; that they were carrying staves, stuck through loaves of bread, and banners, with inscriptions, one of which said that they had 15,000 white slaves to sell by auctién; that\the Mayor came out and addressed them but did not read the Riot act as the law required, Soon, a loaf of bread was hurled at the Mayor and hit him on the head. At the same timea fearful yelling commenced; that he ordered the mob to keep back, as they were pressing as if to get at tho Mayor; that when the Mayor saw this he ordered them to disperse, The crowd did not move, however, and, acting under the Mayor’s direction, he gave the men an order to charge the crowd with their “billies;”” that they did so charge, and finally, he believed, drew their revolvers; that the crowd surrounded them, and when they had taken their prisoners attempts at rescue were made, which led to other arrests, and so on. He related the arrests, the throwing of bread and stones and bricks in corroboration of the Hxkat’s despatch of last evening. CAPTAIN FRANK M’GRAW, tho second in command, also vestifled to these facts, and eight officers also who were engaged in the mélée and the arrests, ‘The case was adjourned until Saturday afternoon. The testimony of the officers was finished, but it is evident the counsel are about to rap the Mayor for giving the order to charge the crowd without reading the riot act.

The dail of the Executive Committee charges the manufacturers with oppres. sion and the Governor with subserviency in calling the whole power of the State to aid them, and con- cludes with the demand that public sentiment be aroused to sustain the operatives in their re- sistance to tyranny. Speeches of a highly in- flammatory nature were made by the clfir- man and others, Two sets of resolutions introduced— the one of a more pacific character than the other—provoked such heated discussion and opposi- tion that they wore withdrawn, Qne speaker was glad 9 i that windows had been broken. He had done some- thing in that lino and would like to do more, He thought such outbreaks had @ beneficial effect in arousing the public to the importanee of the is- sue. Another thought Fall River in ashes e to concession, Another wished to go to ‘River and preach revolution. ‘The meeting was continued to a late hour, with liftlo change in the prevailing tone, ®YMPATHY FOR THE STRIKERS.

THE TRIAL OF TWO STRIKERS, SINEY AND PARES, OFFICERS OF THE MINERS” NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, ON TRIAL—YESTER- DAY'S PROCEEDINGS—THIRTY WITNESSES EX- AMENED. CLMARvimLD, Pa, Sept 28, 1875. ‘The trial of Siney and Parks, the principal officers ob the Miners’ National Association, was proceeded with this morning. The indictment in the case is the one passed upon by the Grand Jury at the June Sessions, when some thirty persons, associated with Messrs, Siney and Parks, were tried and convicted, an excep- tion being made of the two latter on account of their inability, at that time, to be represented by counsel. ‘Their bail was increased from $500 to $5,000, and their cases continued till the present term. District Attorney Fielding opened the case in an elaborate speech. A large number of witnesses were then examined, the substance of their testimony being that a general strike for an advance of ten cents per ton occurred about April 12 in pursuance of a resolution of the District Union meeting held April 8; that on the 11th at a dis- turbance at Goss Run when the new comers to supply the places of the strikers were prevented by the latter from going © work and gerry 2 driven away, Siney was ulong with the crowd and had previously made @ speech to them, The new comers, under & stron; guard of strikers, were marched to Houtsdale an thence sent by railroad out of the county, a dis- tance of more than twenty miles. Xingo Parks was shown to have ordered the march out of the county. On May 10a train of 197 new miners from Philadelphia and Harrisburg, forty of whom we: Italians, was run without stopping direct to the collie jes and the men debarked there, but all of thom, either by persuasion or force, were prevented from going to work. Parke and bis associates were proven to have been frequently upon trains between Tyrone and the mines preventing, by persuasion and promise, miners ‘anxious to work for fifty cents @ ton from going to the mines, The fact camo Out incidentally that Siney, om the part of the National Organization, had not counte- nanced the strike, but regarded it as an illegal one under the constitution of the association, MAILS FOR EUROPE.
