A Grand Demonstration in His Honor at Toledo. ENTHUSIASM REIGNS SUPREME. Processions, Receptions and Speeches Attest to His Great Popularity in the Buckeye State— Thurman's Trip. Harrison at Toledo. Nonresvitie, Ind, August 21.—It was raining heavily this morning when General Harrison took the train and very few people were at the depot. At the Massachusetts avenue station, which is convenient to the Huarrison residence, General and Mrs, Har- rison were taken on board, accompanied by United States District Judge Woods, wife and daughter. An ordinary passenger coach had been attached to the rear of the train for the convenience of General Harrison and his friends, General Harrison’s route was via the Lake Erie & Western to Peru, Ind., arriving there at 10:25. He re- mains until noon, thence by the Wabash rail- way to Toledo, stopping at Ft. Wayne at 1:40 p. m. for dinner and arriving at Toledo at 4:25 . m. The first demonstration of any kind along the route oceurred at Kokomo, fifty-four miles from Indianapolis, where a couplo of hundred workingmen and railroad employes had congregated. They cheered the general and shook hands with him. Harrison made no address. Just before the train arrived at Peru it stopped at the shops of the Lake Lrie & Western railway. A hundred or more work- men in their aprons ran out to greet General Harrison, who stepped down in their midst and shook hands d uring the brief stop, At 10:80 the train pulled into Peru, wh a crowd of nearly a thousand people gre the general and his party, It was with gr difticulty that the general made his way to the waiting room of the depot, where he re- ceived the people. General Harrison and party reached To- ledo at 4:30. They were received by the local committee on reception and a dozen or more other prominent citizens and escorted to carriages. Upon a platform, drawn up in singlo file, stood 200 veterans of the late war, who saluted and cheered as the general passed. With General and M Harrison in first carriage, accompanied by ex-Gov- ernor Fostor and William Cummings, pre- ceded by the veterans and the band, the pro- cession moved through the pnm-uml strects to the residence of Mr. Cummings, whose guests the candidate and wife will be. The demonstrations were very enthusiastic, A reception to General Harrison was held at 8 o'clock this evening, and was attended by large numbers. Governor Koster was the first speaker. In the meantime the local marching club in uniform, and bearing torches, numbering 400 in all, escorted Gen- eral Harrison to the m(‘l‘tm;z He was re- ceived with tremendous cheering. Chairman Brown, of the local executive committee, made a brief speech introducing General Harrison, upon whose appearance the cheer- ing was renewed. General Harrison then made a lengthy speech, which was enthusias- tically received. At the close of his remarks three cheers and a tiger were given for the *next president of the United States," followed by three more for Levi P. Morton. A public reception was the held at Memorial hall. The old soldiers re first admitted, and after them the pub- lic. The reception was continued twenty minutes, and General Harrison was escorted to his carriage, and was driven to the Cum- mings residence. The party leaves in the morning for Middle Bass on the steam yacht Sigma. They will occupy the cottage be- longing to Poter Berdan, of this «ity, and the length of their stay is as yet undeter- mined, ———— Thurman's Trip. Dernerr, August 3l.—Judge Thurman and party left Detroit on the steam yacht Pickett this afternoon amid the hearty cheers and plaudits of 8,000 people who were on the wharf. Numerous vessels, gaily decorated with flags and bunting, accompanied the boat as an escort until the lake was reached. The steam yacht in which the party is carried has been off on a fishing trip in Lake Super- ior, and came back for the purpose of making this trip. Pictures of Cleveland and Thur- man adorned the cabin walls. Collector nf Customs C. A. Ward and J. G. O'Neil, Port Huron, were in charge of the pum The trip has had an excellent effect on Judge Thurman, who was naturally wearied after his trip and threo spoeches Monday, and he enjoyed the rest it afforded him. After a night's rest at Oakland, Port Huron will be reached, Hon. S. 8. Cox, who was expected to spmk at that place, will be unable to be present, but speeches will be made by other congressmen who are in the party, as well as by speakers from various parts of Michigan, Three stands have been provided and throo meetings will be held at the same time. Delegations will be present from all neighboring counties and @ big parade will precede and follow the speeches, Judge Thurman and party have been invited to remain in and near Port Huron until Friday morning, when the trip to Chicago will be made. At the dinner given by the Detroit recep- tion committee at the Grosse Point club house an informal reception was held whis was thoroughly enjoyed by all. At its clusion Judge Thurman spoke as follows “Now, my friends, this is first kidnapping me, and in the second place it is treating your prisoner with cruelty.

Treasury Agents on the Trail of Opium Smugglers, Cmicaco, August 21.—Another gigantic conspiracy was brought to light here to-day. It is an opium smuggling scheme, the extent of which at present cannot be approximated, though if the statements made by the gov- ernment agents are to be believed, many per- sous iu all parts of the country are involved, and many arrests may be made to-night or to-morrow, To-day treasury agents arrested a man who registered at the Palmer house as K. W. Brown, of New York. In his room in a house on Wabash avenue, whither he had been traced from the hotel, was found a can- vas covered trunk and 125 pounds of opium, For some time the custom house officials had been looking for quantities of opiam which was thought to have arrived in this city from New York instead of the Pacific coast, presumably to dodge the heavy duties im: posed upon the drug. For a month a npuml agent has been en- gaged in active search for the s about ten days ago & small quan drug was seized at Fort Wayne, lnd news of the arrest created quite a stir in lhu treasury department at Washington, and the Jwiron wrore kept busy with orders’ und in- ructions to the treasury agents here, Agent ’l‘ulm'mr has been sent from Washington here, and now has full charge of the case. Ho stated to-night that the prisoner was not from New York but from San Francisco, and that he had been known under the alias of C. H. Martin and C. H. Gardner, For many ycurs the prisoner was in the government service and was considered one of the shrewdest operators, Less than a year ago ho left the service, and last Feb- ruary he was ®rrested in Ogdensburg, N. Y., on a charge of smuggling opium. He was soon afterwards releasod for reasons which were never explained. From Ogden: burg Gardner was traced to San Francisc and thence, about two months ago, back east.

LCopyright 199 byiJames Gordon Bennett.] Loxvox, August 21. New York Herald Cable: pecial to Twe Bee |—Many ex- tracts have been given in London and pro- vincial papers foom Blaine newspapers in the United States reférting to the intense desire of Englishmen to sbe Cleveland and free trade triumphant., Great amusewent is afforded by these extracts to the Amer- ican colony or tourists, not exeepting republicans, 4 have occasion to read scores of representative English leading journals daily, published important cities, and can vouch that as much ®ood will and honorable mention is made of Harrison as Cleveland, while Boulanger is much more a topic of interest than any pres- idential candidate. The Daily News, a home rule and semi-radical paper, gives to-day this skit at the silliness of the Blaine organs: ““The political opponents of Cleveland appear to be adepts in the art known in the United States as ‘campaign lying’ One of nm tricks practiced in the last ential contest was the®circulating of extracts from a pretendod pamphilet said to have been issued by the ‘Free Trade Club of London,” wherein Englishmen were ex- horted to understand that ‘the salvation of England depends upon the destruction of American manufactures, and that the only possible way in which American manutac- turers can be destroyed is by free trade.’ To Englishmen the absurdity of a free trade club which regards free trade as the only possible specific for destroying & na- tion's manufactures, s suiliciently ob- vious, Of course there never was any such pamphlet. One of the latest in- ventions engineered in the present contest is a report to the effect that a highly respectable New York paper which supports Cleveland's fiscal policy is mortgaged for half a million dollars to two members of the Cobden club at suspiciously moderate inter- est, 2 per cent per annum. This palpable fiction marks, at all events, some advance in campaign lyiug from an artistic point of view, for while there is not and never was such @ body as the ‘Free Trade clubof London,’ the Cobden club has, at lcast, an existence. “We, ourselves, we may here note, are sufferers in some degres in this way, the as- sailers of Mr. Cleveland’s free trade doc- trines, as they are pleased in their exagger- ated vein to style them, being just now ac- tively engaged in circulating passages from alleged articles in the London Daily News,of which we have not been able to find any trace in our files.” Indeed, asif to cast further rdicule on the tone of the Blaine press, the Morning Post, which is one of the organs of the British government, has a long leader demonstrating how protection ' has benefitted the states. It thus begins: *‘Sqme figures relating to the economic and industrinl progress of the United' States in recent years have lately boen made public and well deserve notice in this country for they form a rather startling commentury on the favorite text of the vadical free trader ahout protection only linjuring the country that adopts it. In andther partof the article the Post says: “*According to our friends of the Cobden school American commerce and American manufacturers ought to be declining rapidly under tue withering influence of a tariff. Instead of this, the statistics, to which we refer show that—""here follow a lot of statistics ealculated to give Mr. Blaine political friends angina pectoris, with excited delight. At the énd of the statistics it continues: “And yet there are scores of politicians here so blind to what is gomng on in the world as to stick to the old fetish.” T Villard’s Exploring Scheme.

Judge Van Brunt and Commissioner Von Glahn Give Their Reasons For Their Faith in Bour bon Success This Fall. American Politics in Paris. (Copyright 1888 by James Gordon Bennett.] Panis, August 21.—|New York Herald Cable—Special to Tne Bre]—Repub- licans may not regard a conversation that was held yesterday in the court yard of the Hotel Chatham as a hopeful sign for Har- rison's success, but the Herald reporter, who acted as cross-examiner on the occasion, not taking any side in regard to the subject discussed, concluded that the democrats are unquestionably quite confident of victory in November. The two speakers were Judge Van Brunt of the supreme court and Commissioner Von Glalin of New York city. Asthese gentlemen are on the same political side, there were no flerce arguments, but their remarks were none the less inter- esting.0The judge began by saying that his judicial position prevented him from expres: ing any opinion, ete. Then he relented a little, and in clear, forcible language went on to demonstrate why the democrats are dead sure to win next fall. *‘Did you read the interview with Mr. C. M. Depew, published in the Herald some time ago?" asked the reporter, “Yes, I.did, and it did my heart good to secaman in Mr. Depew's position talking such nonsense, 1t showed that he had noth- ing better to say. You sce the republicans in the approaching contest nave, as we say in law, gov no case. Clevelund’s prompt ac- tion in making a reduction in the tariff the decisive issue of the campaign has cut the ground from under their feet. In 1884 many of the republican leaders were loudly main- taming that our protective taxes were 20 per cent too high. Now they have to eat their own words or admit the truth of the democratic position. In their dilemma they resort to such an argument as Mr. Depew made use of. They tried to malke out that Mr. Cleveland is a rabid free- trader, and that his re-election will be a menace to the industrial and labor interests of the United States. In other words, they are basing their case on pure nonsense."” “‘Admitting, as you say, judge,” put in the reporter, “that the republican arguments are spurious, may they still not beof sucha character as to alienate a number of the lower classes from the democratic party, particularly in New York state?” “I don’t think so,” was the emphatic veply. “The laboring men of America are not easily deceived, They all read the news- papers and decide for themselves. The re- publicans try to frighten them by pointing 10 the inferior status of Kuropean laborers, telling them thut such will be their own lot if they elect Mr. Cleveland. But the shrewd Irishman or German sces that in England, with its free trade princi- ples, wages are higher than anywhere else on the continent, and he draws his own conclu- sions.” “Speaking of Germans,” rejoined Commis- sioner Von Glahn, “I know that a large ma- jority of them in New York are strong Cleve- land men, They are a prudent, saving race, and it goes against their gram to see the government, year after year, rolling up an enormous surplus that is placing an unneces- sary burden on the poor, and encouraging those in power to make enormous and ridicu- lous appropriations. I have heard that argu- ment advanced again and again by re- spectable German merchants.” “‘But can Mr. Cleveland control the Irish vote, which is all important for his suc- cess!” “Ithink I can answer that question,’” in- terposed Judge Van Brunt. “It is true that in 1584 a very considerable portion of the Irish vote was cast against Mr. Cleveland, but there wis a special reason for that. It was the candidacy ot James G. Blaine, who was believed by the Irish to be ready to sup- port the cause of home rule against England. Mr. Harrison has no such means of drawing to himself an Irish following.” “Of course he hasn’t,” added the commis- sioner enthusiastically. “And, what's more, there are positive reasons why he will lose that following. All the fine speeches in the ‘world will not drive out of the workingman’s head the idea that Cleveland's re-election means cheaper meat and sugar and cloth- ing. I tell you the democrats are going to carry New York state by such a majority as never was known ina presidential con- test. If they could carry it four years ago with an untried leader, why can't they carry it now, when that leader has won the confl- dence and respect of the whole country “Toat’s the talk,” remarked the judge. “Upon that thewe lot me give you another reason for the success of the democratic party. Besides that large portion of the population who, being out of politics entirely, will support Mr. Cleveland simply because they believe him honest and incapable of be- traying his trust, there is another extensive element which will favor his re-elec tion because they are constitu- tionally opposed to any needless change. This feeling exists very widely among our business classes and represents tho natural cons m of capital. 1t was pre- cisely this idea which kept the republicans so long in power. Thousands and thousands who have voted the republican ticket during the past tweaty-five years did so simply be- cause they were afraid to trust the demo- crats, Now that the democrats have shown themselves in the highest degreo trustworthy, they will make tremendous gains among those men who have no other interest in the election than to secure a wise, sound admin- 1stration of public affairs.” Beware of Scrofula Scrofula Is probably more general than any other disease.
