EIGHTEEN BLAINE STARTS FOR MAINE, He is Given an Ovation at Every Stopping Place. ROYALLY ROUSING RECEPTIONS, Great Crowds of Enthusiastic Citizens Line the Ronte and Attest to His Unbounded Pop- ularity, Blaine Homeward Bound, New Yok, August 13—James G. Blaine #tarted on his homeward trin at 11 o'clock on the New York, New Haven & Harlem rail- road. The party consisted of Mr. and Mrs, Blaine, Walker Blaine, Miss Blaine, Miss Dodge ana Colonel Coppinger. Blaine drove from the Fifth Avenue hotel and reached the depot ten minutes ahead of time, A large crowd had congregated on the sidewalk opposite to the cntrance at the de- pot, and when Blaine stepped from his car. riage a loud shout went up from the throng. During the few minutes’ stav in the depot, Blaine held an informal reception, and when rain left the depot e was loudly cheered When the Blame train_ran_ into Stamford ab 11:50 1t wa d with cheers from two thousand or more men and women who waiting. When the cheering had subsided Blame made ashort speech, thanking those assembled for their weicome, In closing he suid: My request is that each and every on¢ of you shall regard the task” of carrying Connecticut for Har rison and Morton as imposed upon himself. Believing that you_are awake to your duty I shall proceed to Maine and ask her republicans to show Conneeticut the path in which she should walk. I thank you, gentlemen, once wmore, and bid you good morning,' At Bridgeport the assembly was larger and even more enthusiastic than at Stamford. 1t was marked by ame features, Blaine made a briet speech. Half of New Haven abandoned all other waiting to rec rived there, the assenbl scemed to e business and to be in ¢ Blaine when his train ar. As at all other stopping places, » was mude up of a large pro ction of ladivs, Blaine left his car and was escorted to the platform ontside of the depot, where he made a short speceh, At Moriden 2,000 people welcomed Blaine, He spoke as follows: “Ibeg to thank you all for this compliment in grecting me £o cordilly. have time on 10 say that important as the vote of Conneet icut alwiys has been, it is ten fold more im- portant this year. If we can have every r pubiican voter in Conncelicut fully compre- hiend and appreciate what the vote of this state may mean I shall rest content with the result which your understanding will bring Trusting that the ides of November may chronicle a victory in Connecticut, and as o consequence a yictory to the nation, I return your greeting with ‘ull the cordiality with Which it has been tendere At Hartford there was gathered an enthu- sistic crowd. Mayor Root introduced the traveling guest, who responded as follows “TLess than a fortnight which, according to the richest in the world—Old A large number of counties ench a population greater than that of the whole state of Connecticut, but I wish I could compure the statisties of Connecticut with any county or of any community of 00,000 people in_Bngland. — The comparison would give a shiarp test by which the good people of Connecticut could determine the depressing cffects of free trade upon the mass of luboring men. You are asked now 1o change the tarifl system upon which pros perity has been attained. The country wishes to hear your auswer upon that po and awaits to Lcar it with confidence.”” At Springfield the largest assemblage of the day was in waiting. Among those who boarded the train to greet Blaine were Mayor Maynard, ex Governor Robinson and Llisha Morgan, Blaine was introduced, and said: “Gentlemen, it would be sheer vanity in me to attribute the assembling of this vast mass of Massachusets voters to a desire to moeet me. 1 take it rather as an index of the ofound interest which you feel in the pend- ing contest. In thut worthy and patriotic purpose I am most heartily” with you. 1 share your feclin bid you Goa- speed. Of the national policies which strikingly advanced your state among the states in the union, the policy of protection bas been the chief. That policy is repre- sented in this contest by Harrison and;Mor- 1n. You should roll up a majority for Har. rison and Morton of tens of thousands, and beyond that, in every practicable and proper way, you should help your neighbors in Conneticut s’ At the conclusi ine' cl cheers we with Stiger" appendi The next stopping place was Worcester, Refore the city itself was rcached there wwere seen from the train throngs of work- 1een in the numerous factories ou either side of the railroad, who had assembled ut the foctory windows waiting for Blaine’s train fo pass. When they saw it they waved their hands and cheered. When the depot wt Worcesler was reached and Blaine's fig- > was recogni *l(m the rear platform of the train the checviug was vociferous. Dr. Yiurden of the republican state committee of Mussachusctts, performed the ceremony of roduction, Mr. Blaine said: “'I have been embarcassed the whole day 1y such demonstrations as this. The crowds nnve not been so large, but everywhere the welcomes have been liearty. 1 répeat hero whit I'said in Springfield, 1 am not van crough to suppose that this vast assemblage is sunply & personal compliment to myse It ather and far move y an exhibi tion of the deep symvathy which the repub- sans in Massachusetts have in the pending onal contest.

About9 o'clock Blune appeaved on the balcony of the hotel and addressed the crowd as follows: I thunk this great as grecting of me to New England.

NEw Yok, August 13.—(S al Telegram | to Tue Bee.|—Everybody who has heard | Mr. Blame talk, either publicly or privately, since his return from Europe, is impressed with the belief that he has come back full of fieht. The conservative habit of speech which he assumed in the campaign in 1884, has been laid aside, and he talks like the Blain of former years, apparently uttering the first thought that occurs to him, and sending it home with all the force at his command. Joe Manley himsclf notices this revival of Blame's puguacious and aggressive spirit.and is delighted to see it. As to this campaign, Mr. Blaine is full of one idea— preservation of tarift for protection—and that idea will be expanded and enforced in every speech that he will make He is loaded to the guards with facts and figures collected while abroad, as to the con dition of workingmen of other countries and can hardly restrain his impatience to lay them before American audience, The e fect of the tariff on wages will be the best of all his utterances. He is gomg to speak wherever the national committee believes that bis services are needed; but, as at pres- ent+advised, he is not likely to go further west than Indiana and that far not soon. General Harrison sent his law partner, Mit- ter, here to invite him to Indianapolis at once to open th mpaign there,but the invitation was declined because the Maine people expect Mr. Blune to start the ball rolling there, as he done regularly ever year for the last twenty odd. The Maine election takes plac tember 10, and he has fully made up his mind not to leave home until that is over except to help his own e. Afterwards he will devote him- self to the doubtful states, and wparticu- larly to doubtful states in the east, The real work, to his mind, lies in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut; but if Harrison wants him ‘n Indiana he will give that state a whirl. The Pacific coast he regavds as safe for the solid republican electoral vote, and $0 far he hus shown no inclination to listen to the urgent invitations he receives from that part of the country, SOME WELL IDlltl-:(;]'-El) KICKS ces Applied By a Wronged Husband to His Wite's Paramour.

COLORED MEN'S CONVENTION. An Exposure of Turner's Schemes Creates a Sensation in the House —Congressman Lyuan Gets a Pension Bill Passed. Relief for Settlers. WasniNGToN Bureau Tite OMAIA Bre, FOURTEENTH STREET, WasnixaTox, D, C., August In the senate to-day % Senator Paddock re- ported from the commission on public lands and a few moments later had passed unanimously the house bill for the relief of settlers upon the old Camp Sheridan military reservation, The necessity for the bill arose from errors of the Valentine land ofice— whose tract books upon opening the office showed that the land within the limits of the Fort Sheridan military reservation w part of the public domain and as such was open to entry under acts of congress providing for the entry of public land, The register and receiver allowed a small number of entries until they were stopped by orders from the general land office. This bill is to legalize the entries erroneously allowed at that time, It provides that all entries or filings under homestead or pre-emption laws allowed by the land offices prior to receipt of instru tions from the general land ofiice dated July 2, 1856, shall be confirmed and that in cases of filings under the pre-emption law made upon lands in the reservation the limit of thirty months shall not be enforced, but that proof and payment must be made within six months from the passage of this act, FOR PURCHASEIS OF THE OTOE KESERVATION. Senator Paddock to-day introduced in the senate a bill of great interest to the purchas- ers of the Otoe reservation. It directs the secretary of the interior to refund to each purchaser of land in the late reservation in the state of Nebr a and Kansas the amount paid by them in excess of the ap- praised value as shown by the records in the general land ofice, and directs that the amounts of all rcbates thus provided for shali be deducted from the principal of the fund placed to the credit of the Indians in the treasury of the United States. The basis of this bill is the excessive speculation which the auction sale of the Otoe rescrvation caused in 1558, at which time land amounting n all to 42,000 acres, of which 34,000 were | cated in Nebraska, was sold at public aue- tion. The appraised valuation of the land ran from £5 to #12 dollars an acre, but, owing to the | bidding the prices secured by the government ran from 6 to $10. The method of public sale to the highest bidders, it is claimed, was not warranted by the act authorizing the sale. There are precedents for the position that the first locate vho were constructively actu 5 were entitled to purchase Land at the appraised value. Since the sale it has been discovered that a very large por tion of the land could not be sold to-duy nor could it have been sold at any time since the sale for one-half of the price paid to the gov- ernment through the speculative bidding at the auction. The settiers some time since formed an_association for investigating the ant of the general land office in author- izing an auction sale of the land, and the bill introduced by Senator Paddock is designed to test the action of the land department. Lvery prominent lawyers in Washing- clieve tuat the land oftice will be ovel ruled. % :QUEL TO THE COLORED MEN'S CONVENTION. The sequel to the colored men’s convention at Indianapolis recently was given in the house to-day, when Phelan of Tennessce called up the Cherokee Indian claim bill. J. Milton Turner, who was minister to Liberia under President Arthur, and who engincered the convention at Indianapolis, is the attor- ney for the claimunts in this bill and has a very fee in it. Just before the convention was held Turner told a western member of congress within 1y hearing that he was a republican ana that he was getting big pay for running that convention; that he had secured the passage of the Cherokee bill in the senate and the democrats in the house were to pass it for running this convention, Turner was in consultation with Chairman Mills and other prominent democrats just be- fore and just after Phelan called up the bill this afternoon. While the clerk was reading the measure Mr. Owen, a republican mewmber from Iudiana, avose and said that he would object to the consideration of the measure; that he diu_not propose to sit in the house and see a bill passed to pay the expenses of u democratic couvention held by colored wen in Indianapolis. The announcement acted as the explosion of a bomb shell on the demo- cratic side of the housé and a lot of the lead- ing members from that side flocked around the Indiana member and beggec him to with- draw the objection, but he was obdurate and the bill was defeated. The democrats who had promised to carry out their part of the compuct are greatly disappointed over the failure of the bill. If Turner does not get his money out of the measure he will be un- able to continue his negotiations for a division of the colored vote of the country LYMAN GETS IN HIS WORK, Lyman of Council Bluffs, this afternoon forced democrats to take up and pass the Lill for increasing the pensions for utter deafucss to #0 a month, When the bill passed Chairman Matson of the commit- tee on invalid pensions, who is the demo- cratic candidate for governor of Indiana, held the floor and the republicans demanded of him while he had the opportunity to call up the dependent, the arrearages and other geueral pension_ bills and put them upon their passage., Matson was in a very embar- rassing situation. He has been claiming to be the soldier's friend and eager to secure pension legistation. He 1s conducting his campaign on the pension issue but he refused this afternoon to embrace an oppor- tunity and he is now recorded with his party in opppsition to gencral pension le islation. Judge Lyman und other republicans say they will object to giving consideration to measures the democrats want to call up by unanimous consent until some general pension bills are passed. AFFECTING INDEMNITY LANDS, The secretary of the interior will sign to- morrow orders revoking the withdrawal of indemnity lands alonz & number of railroads and wagon roads to which grants were made 1o aid in their construction, Among the list are the Hannibal & St. Joe road, a portion of what is now the Chicago & Northwestern railroad, and the Cluc; St. Paul, Minne- apolis & Omaha road. The roads included were overlooked in the general vevoeation by Secretary Lamar lust year. the Chicago & Northwestern railroad upon which 1 ocation is made is part of the Towa Central airline lying west of Lyons and running northwest from Maquokota. The nal grant is now owned by the lowa rail- road land company. 'The new revocation le on the line of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha road is the indemnity lying along the grant of the old Madison & Portage roud in Wisconsin. - At Cheyenne Agency Pigxe, Dak., August 13.—[Special to Tue Bee. | —There is still much doubt as to when the Sioux commission will begin active work ) Agency.

On her arrival at the hospital the woman declared she was about to die, and becoming very much alarmed, said she wanted a minister. The Rev.

SHENANDOAW, [a., August I8.- |Special Telegram to Tie Bee. | —This has been a sad day in the history of Shenandoah, Two of her citizens, victims of the Gallup tragedy, were consigned to their last resting place.

Des MoiNes, August 13, —[Special to Tue Bee.)—A large part of the population of Towa can be found these d in the numer- ous atiractive resorts in the vicinity of Spirit and Okoboji lakes. lowa people are just beginning to find out what attractions are presenicd within their own state,though pleasure seekers from Omaha, St. Louis and other cities have for some time been making their annual pilgrimages to these beautiful Towa lakes. Spirit lake draws more largely from the fashionable class from the cities, Omaha, Des Moines and Cedar Rapids e pecially being represented most of the sea- son by good delegations who enjoy the lake sports by day and the dances, parties and other social diversions by night. Okoboji is more att to the people who don't care for society at this time and prefer to fish and row and rough it after & fash- ion, living as near us possible to ' nature's heart during their more or less brief outing. All visitors at Okoboji have pomted out to thema lady with a very interesting history, who spends her summers the, Itis M Abby Gardiner, the sole survivor of the Spirit lake massacre in 1857. She was then a young girl living at home, on the shore of West Okoboji lake, A band of Sioux, led by Chief Impeduka, had been committing many depredations further north, but the settlers in the httle colony at Spirit lake and Okoboji lake did not appre- hend much danger. Suddenly, without a word of warning, this band of red devils swooped down on the handful of families at Spirit lake, killing them all, and then pro- ceeding down to Okoboji, continued the mur- derous work. Mrs. Gardiner, then a girl about twelve years old, was spared, though all her amily was killed before her eyes. A wife of one of the settlers was also spared and taken away by the Indians. But alter enduring the fiendish treatmout of captivity for a time, the woman died, and the girl alone survived.
