Raleigh, N. C, Sept. 8.
The Republican Congressional con
vention for the Fourth district met
here to-day with Thomas P. Devereuz
in the chair, A negro, H. S. Christ-:
ma3, was secretary. The entire pro
gramme was evidently cut and dried
and the "favorite" had it all i their
own way. , Thomas P. Devereux and
Joseph A. Blair were placed in nomi
nation for elector and the . former won
on the first ballot. E. A. Johnston and
John Saunders were the candidates
for the Congressional nomination and
Saunders won on cne ballot. The
white Republicans, and the negro ele
ment as well, express themselves
pleased with the nominations.
The systematic way in which the
Mott anti-ticket faction was"tquelebed"
at every turn in the State convention,
was a sight to behold. In tha first
part of the proceedings when the con
vention was considering the report of
the committee on credential, j; C, L.
Harris, Mott'a first lieutenant aud the
leader of the ''opposition," arose and
requested the chairman to state the
question b fore the house. (It
was when the temporary chairman,
Schenck, was in the chair.) i; The
chairman replied, stating the question.
uoon which Harris jumped to bis feet
and said: "That is not the question be
fore the house and you know ii!" The
negro presiding officer leaned back
easily and replied: "Your calling me a
lie- don't hurt me one bit." Tha ma
chine worked perfectly and Eavts'
hand could be seen in every : move
The negroes have no representation on
the ticket but express themselves as
satisfied.
One man said to-day that Eaves ex
claimed just after the ticket was nomi
nated, "Didn't the think work well,
boys." i
A special from Statesvllle to a morn
iDg paper stated that Mott expressed
his disgust at the proceedings of the
convention and would vote for the
Democratic State candidates. The re
port occasioned much talk. It was
noised about that J. C. L. Harris would
be given the nomination for elector in
the Congressional convention to day
as a meaDS of bringing him into line,
but after last night's report, the ma
chine worked as usual and the Mott
men were again left out in the cold.

" New YoriK, Sept. 8. The stock
market to-day was rather unsettled in
its temper, but there were evidences
of more support to prices than cover
ing of shorts. Tbe movements of im
portance, however, were still confined
to a very few stocks. A great deal of
literature was put out, having for its
object the annulling of excitement
over a possible war between the Read
ing and Pennsylvania companies, and,
to some extent, it was successful; as
while Heading, on very large transacs
actions, was held comparatively firm,
Coalers were again remarkably dull,
without quotable change. More was
heard about the ' expected increase in
the dividend on the Western Union.
Industrials were less prominent, but
General Electric and Lead, preferred,
were specially strong, while the fea
fure of the railroad list was New Eng
land, which disputed with Reading the
leadership in activity, and fairly led
the mirket in the extent of its upward
movement. The rest of the market
throughout the day was dull. A drive
was made at the list late in the day on
a rumor of large orders for gold re
ceived from Germany, The whole list
lost the day's gain. Sales of listed
stocks amounted to $17,000 shares, and
31,000 unlisted, , ,

NO MORE COLORED CONTESTS-
The Clnn Decides Not to Have At
Worn mixed ITTatebee.
I (New York Herald.)
New Orleans, L., Sept. 7. The
colored people on the levees are so
triumphant over the victory of lhe
negro (Dixon) last night that they are
loudly proclaiming the superiority of
their race, to the great scandal f f the
whites, who declare that they should
not ba encouraged to entertain even
feelings of eq iality, much less of su
periority.! Tne Olympic club manage
ment have about decided not to bo d
any more colored contest. To-night's
Daily Slates prints the following edito
rial on the subject under the caption,
"A Word to the Olympic club," and it
seems to express the feelings of a large
number of the people:
C"Tne action of the Olympic Club In
arranging for the Skelly-Dixon con"
test, thus matching a white man
againtt a negro, has caused a good
deal oi snarp criticism and much in
dignation, which was freely voiced on
the streets last night. So far as the de
feat of Skeily is concerned, we do not
suppose that; it caused any regret ex
cept among those who were foolish
enough to bet their moi.ey when it
was known that he was 0!iclased in
strength, skill and science, because if
white man puts himself rn a level
with a negro in a pugilistic contest he
deserves to be .thoroughly and com
pletely thumped.
"The States does not care for the
drubbing which Skeily received at the
hands of. his colored c-pponent, but we
have a kindly feeling for the Olvmpic
club, and for this reason we take the
liberty of advising its officers and
members to b,ave cu more contests be
tween white and black pugilists in the
future. That kind cf thing may do
well enough iu the North, where
there are very few negroes, but it does
not suit this locality, where they are
numerous and where such contests as
that which took place last night is sure,
if persisted in, not only to arou3e a bit
ter feeling between the races which will
lead to bloody affra 8, but will also
injure the Olympic club Itself by amys
iLg public sentiment against it. There
are thousands! cf vicious and ignorant
negroes In this city who will regard
the victory il Dixon over Skeily as
ample proof t that the negro is the
superior of ihe white man in every
respect, and when thisldea ence hods
a lodgement. in meir minus tney will
become brutally insolent and frequent
and fatal collision will be inevitable.
It is to be hoptd the Olympic club will
be quick to realize teat ine people ci
this city are opposed to mixed contests
and make no more mistakes,

YORKL Sept. 8 Grover Cleve
land, accompanied by Don M. Dickin-
inson and '.his private secretary,
O'Br'en, arrived in this city by the
Fall Riyer steamer Pilgrim this mom
log. There was only : the usual crowd
of people at the dock to meet relatives
or friends and but few recognized
Cleveland, who, accompanied by Dick
inson and O'Brien, walked quickly to
the roadway! of the pier where they
entered a carriage. Cleveland's de
parture from Gray Gables was a great
surprise and the fact of his intended
visit to iNew x orK was not learnea until
after the party bad left Buzzard's Bay.
Dickinson arrived there at noon and
after two or 4 three hours conference
with Cleveliid, the party boarded the
5 o'clock tram for Boston. He comes
on here at Dickinson's request in order
to con&uit wiui some oia uemocratio

only a day or two. .
Cleveland drove to the victoria hotel

YELLOW FL1GS AGAIN
HOISTED ON HOFFMAN'S ISLAND AND

Mor New Cam of Cbolera and DMihi
! Reported Tne Records of the Past
Two Dare Cholera Amoac tha
i Crew of the Roreaanala Htr '
: Pasenxers Cooped Up
! With the Crew. ;
NEW YORK. Sept. S A desnatf-h ra-
ceived here from quarantine at 9:30
o'clock this morn ng announces that
tbe quarantined steamers Normannla
and Kugia have hoisted the yellow flag
again and that the same signal is fly
ing at Hoffman Island. These signals
indicate that there are more cholera
this morning on the Normannla, Rugia
and on Hoffman Island, for it was
agreed yesterday between the health
officers and the commanders of the
steamships mentioned that the yellow
flag, after j yesterday, was sot to be
hoisted unless as notification that ad
ditional cases of cholera were discov
ered. The record .for yesterday was
eight fresh cases among. the, crew of
the Normannla and two more cases
among thei steerage passengers of the
8am e ship. - Consequently, since the
cholera arrived here there have been
thirty-one cases of sickness fiom the
disease and eight deaths from the same
cause at this port. It will ba noticed,,
however, that this is not an alarming
state of affairs considering that there
are about twenty steamships detained
-either at upper quarantine or anchored
in the lower bay at the cholera an
chorage. It ill also be seen that the
dreaded scourge has been almost en
tirely confined to the crew of the Nor
man nia and that the stokers of that
vessel seem to be the greate st suffers.
Eight of that steamer's crew, all strong
hardy men, were removed from the
vessel Yesterday afternoon and trans-,
ferred to Swinburne Island. The doc
tor would not say, that these men were
suffering Irom cholera, but admitted
that they had diarrboei and other
Bymptonisi that were very suspi
cious. It is eafa to assume that the
transfer of these men to the pest island
would not have been made had not the
health officers been morally certain
that the disease was cholera. i
! Now comes the most serious and sig
nificant part of it. These eight men
who were taken from the Normannla
in agony,! had only the day before
been taken back to the ship after
twelve hours' stay on Hoffman Island,
where they were scrubbed, fumigated
and disinfected with all possible thor
oughness.) Along with some 600 others
they were taken back to the Norman
nia in apparently excellent health and
tbe following day they were prostrated
with Asiatic cholera or something very
like it. One of tbe. health officials
spoke of these new cases rather lightly,
as if they were of little importance and
not cholera at all. "It was all the re
sult of washing these fellows," he said,
laughing. "The shock of such an uqm
familiar experience was too much for
them. You can develop pretty much
any epidemic by treating these un
washed emigrants with water They
caught cold, got cramps and diarrhoea
and that is all there is to it." -
The following is the official report
for to-day i New cases on the Norman
nla: Frorig Albrecht, aged 24 years:
Adolph Meier, aged 25 years; Gottlieb
Daumishon, aged 36 years; Gustaye
iNewman, aged 25 years; D. Audile,
aged 21 years; Carl Grumich, aged 21
years, all Of the crew. i
On the Rugia the new cases were:
Guston Will choDDer. seed 1 vear:
Johan Podrateki.aged 44 years; Felona
Kuueschin, aged 30 years. - .
At Hoffman island there was a new
case: Karl isiuanig, aged co years.
At Swinburne Island the deaths on
Sept. 7th were: Elfrida Schultz, aged
8 years, Irom the Rugia; Henry
Frankel, aged 39 year?, of the crew of
the Normannla; Jacob Kessler, aged
33 years, and Christian Housenaged
10 years. !
The cholera situation at quarantine
is, no doubt, very gr& e. Not only are
new cates breaking out every day
among the steerage passengers of the
ill-fated Rpmannia and the Rugia, the
former of whom are on Hoffman Island,
but.it has now settled well among the
crew cf the big express steamer, who
are on board. i
If anything can be added to the hor
ror of the situ at ion it is the fact that
tbe cabin (passengers, who have been
free from &ny sign of disease, are still
kept line rats in a trap enclosed with
in the sides of the steamer with cholera
raging alongside them. If the cholera
breaks out among them God knows
where it will end and if the results are
to be judged from those' which have
occurred among the crew since tbey
were first attacked, the mortality will
be appalling.
When the Normannla arrived Satur
day morning none but the steerage
passengers had had any symptoms of
the disease, although it had broken
out some days bf fore. Now tbe crew
have it, &pd still the first and second
cabin passengers have escaped.
t"No ship to put them on; no place
where I lean land them," says the
health officer, while the agents, whose
place it is! to 869 that the passengers
are cared for, eay nothing. Dr. Jenkins
has made strenuous exertions to obtain
a place to put the well passengers, but
up to the present he has been unsuc
cessful.

SULLIVAN A BACK NUMBER.
So Says Air. Kennedy-Comments of
Sports on tne Plant sulltTaa'e
Bad Condition Corbett Fresh
- SulllTaa oa the Flcnt.
New Orleans,' Sept. 8.Sullivan
slept till awakened near noon. His
face was so swollen that the skin was
drawn tight. His lips were diefigured.
His nose, where Corbett landed re
peatedly, is not broken, but terribly
bruised. He got a Turkish bath and
spent the day indoors, preparing to de
part.'"' - '-'- L'";..'' .!'
Corbett was fresh and bright, re
ceiving Mb friends' congratulations.
He said the result did not surprise him
because he knew when he went into
the ring that Sullivan was not hia
equal in skill or endurance. Suliivan
was a wonderful hitter and every inch
a fighter, but what he lacked was abil
ity to use his bands and avoid a cleverer
man." ,
Dixon enjoyed the smashing Sullivan
got. He said: kCorbett made a mon
key of Sullivan, just as I thought he
yrjuld." -
Walter Campbell, lightweight, said:
"Sullivan used bad judgement from
start to finish. W henever he hit him
with his left he fell short. When he
hit withliis right he generally missed
Corbett. Corbett is the world beater
and best I ever saw."
Alf Kennedy said: "It was a fine
fight. Corbett's activity carried the
day over Sullivan's age. - Sullivan is a
back number. He was too old to fight.
None of these men have any license to
go in the ring, when they are past 30
years of age, against a clever young
man with speed and endurance."
Many of the sports will have hard
work to get out of town, being broken.
It transpires that Sullivan, after his
defeat last night, began undoing all
the careful work of training . which he
and his trainers had been doing for
weeks past. Defeat and chagrin,
coupled with the absence of any mo
tive for training, doubtless, led the
man to resume his convival habits. His
deep sleep this morning was the result
of potations. When be awakened he
was taken over to the Gymnastic -club
and there kept until the time arrived
to resume the homeward journey at
8:30 o'clock. The great giant presented
a pitiable spectable. The cut on the
nose had been closed, but the eyes were
blackened and his whole face is swollen
terribly. While he tried to smoke the"
sodden butt of a cigar he ta ked in a
maudlin g voice of his downfall.
Sullivan lays greatest stress on the
fact that be could not reach Corbett.
The shifty, lightning tactic9 of the new
champion worried and dazed him. The
Californian circled and circled and
kept Sullivan circling in order to face
him. This frequent whirling, the
lights and the mazy swimming of thou
sands of white ana eager faces banked
upon all sides, all tended to confuse
and daze the big man of Boston. The
lightning, flashlike science of the
young man was a reyela ion to Sulli
van, who, in his best days, had never
possessed such pugilistic elements.
"But I did not run away," the big fel
low almost sobbed. "Lock us up in a
room just lock me in a room with
him and see what I could do with him.
But he licked me. I give him all tbe
uredlt he wants. He licked me tquare
enough, but let him go through what
I have. Let him knock them all out
for twelve years and then see if he can
do any better than I did.; Yts, he
licked the champion and mow he's
champion. Let him take care of it as
good as I did. That's all. I ain't
kicking." I
Alter awhile be went to lie down in
the club house and fell asleep without
the attention paid him hourly yesver
day. HandEome Dan Murphy was
about the only one of the Sullivan, out
fit who was attending to the ex-cham-.
pion. Wakely and Johnson and Moran
his backers, were blocks away and
about the hotel, while faithful Phil
Casey was packing up for the journey,
and Jack Ashton was drinking with a
party whose chief occupation was the
admiration of Jack McAuliff, who was
about the bar room.
Champion Corbett will leave here
to-morrow morning at 4 o'clock for
New York on a special train over the
Piedmont Air Line.
"Corbett win never meet Jackson
again," said Delaney, Corbett's sec-
oud. "You may make this public. We
are against fighting negroes any more
and we are particularly catering to
the wishes of our Southern friends in
this matter. Besides, Corbett has
worsted Jackson already and nothing
is to be gained by fighting again. We
will pay no attention to Mitchell and.
for the present, ignore all challenges."

New Yo3K, Sept. 8. Hubbard,
Price & Co. say of cotton: It has
been a contradictory market to-day.
The apparent influences have been
bullish. Spinners in Liverpool bought
3,000 bales after the close yesterday,
and 12,000 additional to day. This
makes the total takings for the last
three days 40,000.. Despite this lac.
futures have .declined and at tbe close
were 2-64d lower than yesterday. The
New York market has sympathized to
a moderate extent onlj. It opened ,2
points lower than yesterday, advanc d
to yesterday's closing figures, and by
1 o'clock was back to the opening quo
tatlon. lneaosence 01 Duylog power
is obvious, and a constant stimulus is
needed to restore values. During the
afternoon the market sold off a few
points more, out just oeiore close a
rally ensued ana tne entire loss was
quickly recovered, the . close being
firmer, J to y points better than yes
terday.

Atlantic coast, and irom: the last re
ports which have been received is at
this time about fifty miles southeast of
ine entrance to Delaware bay. From
present indications, based on winds
and currents prevalent at this season
01 the year, it is ij expected this
portion cf the wreckj will drift I
along to the entrance of 1 Chesapeake
biy. It is therefore thought, as a mat
ter of precaution, that vessels bound in
and out of Chesapeake bay should be
warned of tbe danger due to the possi
ble presence in that locality of this ob
struction to navigation! It is possible,
however, the bow may drift down and
ground off the coast of I Hatteras, psss-
