BUT SILVER WAS NOT AN ISSUE In Two Instances Only Was the White Metal a Factor and in those the Sen timent Seems to Have Been Against It—Altgeld Says the Hostility to Cleveland is Responsible lor the Re sult—He Went Fishing Instead of Going to the Polls and Voting. Special to the News and Observer. Washington, D. C., Nov. 7. The whirligig of time brings many changes. Twenty years or so ago, Boss Shepherd was the most detested man of all the bosses who manipulated cities for personal or political gain. He was al most driven out of office in disgrace. This week he has been given a reception that could not have been more royal and hearty if he had always been the popn lar idol. When he ran Washington he did so on a lavish scale, and men who denounced him for what they then called corruption, are now honoring him for bis “progressiveness and foresight.” Tnere is no room to doubt that his ex tensive and expensive schemes have done more to beautify this city than anything else, and it is now believed that hostility to higher taxes for improvements were at the bottom of charges of crookedness At any rate Boss Shepherd is the gues' of honor to day in the Federal capital. Why Didn't Grover Vole ? There has been much comment here over the failure of the President to reg ister and vote. One Democrat said: “How scan you expect a party to win when its chosen leader goes squirrel hunting on election day, and is supposed to desire the defeat of his party in two Democratic States in order to punish leaders wtio would not adopt his policy?” That is a sentiment to which expres aion is often giveD, even among the office-holders who are supposed to be in harmony with the President. As a ma’ter of fact there are many men in office here who, while having great respect for the President, of course, grateful appreciation of his confidence in them, do not endorse the policy of the administration ia trying to make everything bend to the financial policy promulgated. They see ia it much of the hostility to the party manifested on Tuesday. hilver and the Elections. To-day’s Washington Post says: The opponents.of the free coinage of silver are taking a great deal of gratification in the result of the election. In Ken tacky the Democratic candidate for Governor, a rampant free silver advo cate, has been defeated, and so has Sen ator Blackburn, who made his campaign solely upon the silver issue. Another incident of equal note is the defeat of Edward Lane by Mr. Hadley in the 18th Congressional district of Illinois. Mr. Lane is a silver man, pure and simple, and his election was advocated by such well known opponents of the white metal cause as Mr. Bland, of Missouri, and Mr Bryan, of Nebraska. “Buck ’ Hein richsen, who was responsible for the sil ver convention in Illinois, also espoused Mr. Lane’s cause quite vigor ously. Notwithstanding rhis, and de spite the fact that the Republican nomi nee was only named a couple of weeks before election day, Mr. Lane has been defeated in a district which was usually safely Democratic. The Illinois sound money men were yesterday very happy over this outcome. Comptroller Eckels, who had been watching the fight with extreme interest, expressed his pleasure at the blow which had been given to free coinage, and As sistant Secretary Scott Wike said that his only regret was that the majority for Hadley was not larger. Silver was not au issue in the elec tions except in the two instances named, and in both of these the sentiment seems to have been decidedly against it. Re-Organization of the Senate. There seems to be quite a misunder standing about the re organizition of the Senate, so far as it has been affected by the results of last Tuesday. Mr. Brice, of Ohio; Mr. Gibson, of Maryland, and Mr. Blackburn, of Kentucky, all will re main in the Senate until March 4, 1897, so that they wiil participate in the two full sessions of the Congress which be gins on the first Monday ot next Decern • ber. The personnel of the preseur Sen ate has not been changed by the elections at all. The only immediate effect of these Re publican victories upon the Senate will be to make it absolutely certain that the Republicans will nor enter into any com bination with the Populists, directly or indirectly,. to secure the organization of the Senate at the approaching session. They have simply to wait a few months, and then take control with sufficient votes of their own parry members. In the mean time, with a Democratic Exec utive in the White House, nothing could be accomplished iu the way of b-gisla . tion, even if the Republicans secured the organization of the Senate, and they are not looking now for empty honors. It is interesting to note that before March 4, 1897, the successors to other Democratic Senators may be chosen. A Republican may come from New York in plate of David B Hill, from Illinois iu place of John M. Palmer, and from Wis consin in place of William F. Vilas. If Indiana and Missouri should go Repub lican next year Mr. Voorhets and Mr. Vest would step aside, and their places would be filled by Senators representing the Republican party. THE ADMINISTRATION DID IT. Altgeld Think* Hostility to Cleveland Caused the Defeat, Springfield, 111., Nov. 7. -Governor Altgeld said he attributed the general defeat to a feeling of bitterness against the Federal administration. Theie was a feeiiDg everywhere among Democrats that the Federal administration bad trampled upon every principle of Dem ocracy and had simply done the dirty work for the Ri publican party. It had gone further in carrying out the princi ples of Hamiltonism than the Republi cans had ever dared. There was a feel ing that the present Federal administra. tion was the weakest and tfce most pu B!lanimous the country had ever had. As a eomequence, the party represent ing trusts and special privilege grabbers had been victorious. The effect would be to give a new impetus (o trusts and to increase corruption in office. But in the end it would, he said, benefit the Democratic party in that it would retire a number of men who had posed as Democratic Raders, but who bad kept the party from espousing any cause or standing for any principle. They s:ood for no definite principle, and conducted the business of the party under a political false pretense. The whole business of the government seemed to rest upon a plane of political trickery. “Other leaders will come,” be added, “who will endeavor to place the party o» higher ground and to make it stand for those great principles of Dem ocraey to which our country owes its marvelous career and its exalte i position among nations.” “Governor, do you think it was the question cf Sunday closing, pure and simple, that caused Tammany to win in York ?” it was the allopathic dose of Roosevelt that destroyed the Republican party there. As a prominent Republican 1 said to me: ‘New York can swallow I Sunday closing, but will ch.ke to death ■ over Teddy’s posing.’ The fact is, the Republican party in the city of New York is entitled to sympathy on account of the manner of its death. The Philis tines wers destroyed by the jawbone of an ass, and no people have envied them the manner of their taking off, but the jawbone of an ass is a respectable in strument of execution compared with the jawbone of Teddy, which is neither tooth nor stinger, but simply a buzz at both ends and at the middle.” SENATOR SHERMAN’S VIEWS. Declares Congress Must Increase the Government Revenues. Washington, D 0., Nov. 7,—A special to the Cleveland Leader says: “The campaign in Ohio,” said Benator “was of national importance and it involved national issues almost entirely. The people realized this fact. “By the result in Ohio the party is pledged, so far as it may be pledged, to two things: The election of Gov. Fora ker to the Senate and the unqualified aud hearty support of McKinley for the Presidency. Foraker will certainly he elected to the Senate, and I have no doubt that McKinley will receive, as he merits, the enthusiastic support of all the Repull cans of Ohio Yesterday’s splendid work insures that. “Do you think that Congress wiil take action looking to increasing the revenues of the government?” “Yes,” replied the Senator promptly. “That will be absolutely necessary Any such action,” said he in response to other inquiries, “will be directed along tbe lines ot Republican principles. There will be no attempt to revise the tariff in its entirety by the incoming Congress, but some changes will be made.” “Do you anticipate any changes in the wool schedules ” “I do. P rsinally, I would not vote for any tariff measure that did not in clude a revision of the wool schedule.” “If Congress should pass such a meas ure as that do you think it would receive the approval of the President?” “Perhaps not, but upon Congress lies the responsibility of raising the reve nues of this government. The members of that body are the representatives of the people and to them alone they are responsible for their action. President Cleveland may not approve of the meas ure pa-sed by Congress, but he cannot force it to do his will. He permitted the Wilson Gorman bill to become a law without hiH signature, and he may deem it expedient to permit a measure to be passed by a Republican Congress to become a law in the same manner.” Complete Returns in Maryland. Baltimore, Nov. 7.—Complete and semi olliciai returns from every county in Maryland give Lownes, (Republican) for Governor, 125,018; Hurst, (Democrat) 105,905. The vote for Governor in 184)1, was Vannart, (Republican) 78,388; Brown, (Democrat) 108,539. The Probable Result ia Ohio. Columbus, O , Nov. 7.—The Republi can State Committee to-night figured the Republican plurality for Governor in Ohio at 95,348 Tbe Democrats carried only 28 ot the 88 counties in the State. No effort, has been made to figure the to tal vote cast but it is believed to be one of the largest in tbe history of the State. The official count, will not materially change the Let lesults. Brooklyn Democrats Give Up BitooKi.VN, N. Y , Nov 7 Tn- Detn oc :tuc campaign committee of Brooklyn to day admitted the defeat of their local ticket, and will take no steps looking to RALEIGH. N. C. FRIDAY. NOV. 8 1895. a re-count of the ballots. Whatever Mr. Grout, the regular Democratic nominee for mayor, or any of the other candi dates may do in this direction, will be done by them individually, and no;, with the sanction of the committee. WHAT JOHN BULL THINKS OF IT ; Democrats Not Likely to Get Hack in I Power at the Next Election. London, Nbv. 7. -The Globe this afternoon, commenting upon the recent elections in the United States, says : “We think no question is likely to arise t efore the president al year which will bring the Democrats back to power. So far as our relations with the United Sta'es are concerned, the issue is of ex ceedingly little importance, involving no other chauge than another American ambassador here. But real interest is felt in this country at Tammany’s vic tory. The reformers did not know how to use their newly acquired power with discretion, and to them alone must be ascribed the defeat.” ASSOCIATION OF COLLEGES. Dr. Winston,of the University, Elected President and Chancellor. Special to the News and Observer. Atlanta, Ga , Nov. 7. An association of colleges, academ ies and high schools in the Southern States was formed here to day by the Vanderbilt Univer sity, University of North Carolina, Washington and Lee, University of Vir ginia, University of Tennessee and Lu’ane University, Wofford College, Uni- Vjrsity of the South, Trinity College, Mercer College, University College and Universities of Tennessee, Louisiana and Alabama.

For the First Time it is Del ated in the Constitutional Convention. Columbia, S. 0., Nov. 7.—The dispen sary law for the first time was made au issue in the debate in the Constitutional Convention to-day on the proposition to give the Stale tue same right to change the venue as is accorded a defendant. This v.as introduced solely to secure dis pensary convictiors when it was found impossible to do so in dies like Charleston aud Columbia. The eonven lion by a vote of 71 to 57 refused to adopt that provision, but by a vote of 72 to 59 it gave the Legislature permis sion to allow the State to ask a change in cases to be prescribed by it, which means that it will be allowed in dis pensary cases. THE GREAT NORTHERN STRIKE. An Injunction Prohibiting Interference by the Strikers. Walla Walla, Wash., Nov. 7.—Uni ted States District Judge Hanford has issued an order restaining strikers on tbe Great Northern railroad from inter fering with the operation of the road.

A REPLY IS PROMISED THE PORTE WILL TAKE STEPS TO RESTORE ORDER IN ARMENIA. AND FRGTiCT THE MISSIONARIES 'I tie "ft tp Makes a Statement Charg ing the Aimenmns W ith the Respon sibility for the Recent Outbreak*— The Situation Daily Becoming More Alarming—From Syria Especially tbe Most Disquieting Rumors are Coming—Troops Assembling. Constantinople, Nov. 6. via Sofia, Bulgaria, Nov. 7.—The Turkish minister for foreign affairs, Said Pasha, has promised to give the ambassadors of the powers a definite reply within two days, as to what steps the PoUe intends to take for the restoration of order in Ar menia and to provide for the protection of Christians in that part cf the Turkish Empire This was the point especially alluded toby the ambassadors on Tuesday last when they called separately and repre sented that the present state of affairs in Armenia could not be allowed to con tinue, and that if adequate measures were not shortly taken to bring about the restoration of order, the powers would be compelled, acting in concert, to take their own steps in tbe matter. No combined action of such grave impo tance upon the part of the powers has been taken for years past, and the fact that the Porte was reminded of the interven tion of tbe pov e s in Syria at the time of the massacres in 1860 is considered as a direct warning to the Sultan that Eu rope will intervene to restore order ia Armenia unless the Turkish government acts promptly. As each day passes however, the situation becomes more and more alarm ing and adds to the difficulty of the task before the porte, and possibly, before the European powers. From Syria especially tbe mo t disqueting rumors are coining and that they are based on facts is shown by the mobilization of twenty battalions of Redifs, out of the sixty available and the steps being taken to dispatch them as promptly as possible to that portion of Asiatic Turkey. This lends color to the report that the Ar menians are receiving support from un expected sources and that the Turkish government may' soon lie face to face with an open and widespread revolt against the rule of the Sultan. Arrests of Armenian and Turkish sus pects are constantly bung made here and elsewhere; but owing to tbe press censorship few facta iu this connection are obtainable. Possibly the most grave turn in recent events lies in the fact established beyond any doubt, that the dissatisfaction against the ru’e of the Sultan has extended to the Turkish army and navy and that the palace officials are well aware of this fact and are in a state of greatest alarm. Nobody here would be astonished to hear at any moment of an outbreak in the palace itself; in fact peop’e who are well versed in turkish affairs assert that this is amoDg the immediate probabilities and that only a prompt show of force upon the part of the European fleets can avert it. Trustworthy reports which have been received here frem Erzeroum state that it has been established beyond dispute that the Turkish troops took part in the recent massacre and pillage of Armenians there, and, it is added, clear evidence of this fact will be placed before the repre sentatives of the powers. Private accounts represent the condi tion of the A-iatic provinces of Turkey as being deplcrable in the extreme. A veritable reign of terror is said to exist, and bloodshed and rcbxry are of daily 03curren<?e. The Forte Makes a Statement. Washington. D. C., Nov. 7—The Turkish legation announces the follow ing telegram from the sublime Porte under yesterday’s date: “All news concerning plots, threatening letters and a supposed dissatisfaction in the ranks of the army and navy is in tentionally propagated by well known newspaper correspondent, affiliated with the Armenian committee to alarm public opinion. As for the often re peated assertion of the intended exter mination of the Armenians, it is too ab surd to be contradicted. The efforts ot the imperial government tend on the con trary to quell the revolt of the Armen ians and to resist their criminal and bloody agitation. “Tbe Armenian agitation at Diarbe kir was on the j,olnt of subsiding when the Armenians be nan their attacks upon the Musj-u marih by throwing bombs a them auu by firing at the muezzins at the very time when the latter w r ere call ing the faithful to prayers. During the affray fifty Mussulmans and ninety Ar menians were killed and wounded. “Armenian rioters attacked the pa trols at Sivrik, killing a few Mussulmans and setting fire to the B z ar. “Two hundred Armenian revclu rionists having at their head Kevenck, chief of the Parish of Ferus (Marasb) attacked the village of Tchoukourhissar, aud killed twelve Mustu a au. “Some of the agitators were arrested, including part of the Armenian brigands whocaptured Hadji HassauOglou Husni. “AU news published as to the cause of tbe trouble at Adana, Tarsus and Mer sine, is absolutely without foundation.” Cotton made a slight advance yester day, and was higher on the local market, though the receipts were less than a hun dred bales. KING OF THE AQUATIC WORLD. Jake Gandaur W ins the World’s Chal lenge-Cup and Parse. Austin, Texas, Nov. 7 —Jake G«u danr, of Canada, is stfil champion of the aquatic world. Tbe contest was over a mile aud a half course, and the trophies were the champiouship Richard K. Fox challenge cup and a purse of #I,OOO.

Gaudaur won with five boat lengths lead, came down the course un der an easy thirty one stroke and won the race in 20:50. The two Englishmen dropped off in the first race, saving themselves for the great four oared race, which followed on the heels of the single scull.

The starters were: Bubear’ Barry, Hains and Wingate for England and Teemer, Rogers, Cnarley Gaudaur aDd Jake Gaudaur for America. As the two crews lined up the excitement was intense. Belting has been ruming on these two teams for the past week, until #IO,OOO was in pool sellers hands this afternoon. The English crew gained the lead in the first ten boat lengths and kept it on up the course by about three boat lengths, though the American crew closed the gap some when near the mile and a half flag. The English team turned first and cn the return course at tbe three qaarter flags, they were leading by five boat lengths. The Americans spurted at the half flags for about five lengths only, when they gave out. From there to the finish line tbe English crew had three lengths’ lead and the two heats passed over the line in that posi tion. Time of race, 17:20 1-2. The winning of this raes by the Eng lisb crew accords them all importaut laurels at this regatta. This concludes the regatta. THE INDUS UR AL SOUTH.
